Zhang Fu was later killed in the Battle of Tumubao, although he was killed by his father, but he died a very bad death, which was extremely inconsistent with his identity.

At that time, he was already a very popular minister, a prince of the country, a prince, and a party Yuanrong, but he was still subject to Wang Zhen, who had a heavenly constitution in his mouth, and died with hatred.

The Battle of Tumubao can be said to be the biggest unsolved case in the early Ming Dynasty.

Although in the early years of Hongwu and Yongle, the Han people had an elite army that was completely annihilated by the Mongol iron cavalry, the first time it was the victorious general Xu Da who led the army, but still lost very badly. However, these two battles were only tens of thousands of people, and the battle of Tumubao was an army of 400,000 troops, which gathered almost all the elite soldiers and generals of the Ming Dynasty at that time, but they were all wiped out, and even Emperor Yingzong was captured in a battle, becoming a bargaining chip in the hands of the Mongolian Warat tribe.

The Wara tribe was not the sworn enemy of the Ming Dynasty like Wang Baobao, on the contrary, it was also the greatest hero of the Yongle Emperor. At the beginning, the three tribes of Mengren Duoyan were attached to King Ning in the northeast, and after Zhu Di seized King Ning's soldiers and horses by trickery, he bribed the three tribes of Duoyan with gold and silk land, so that they could help him seize the country.

The Warat tribe is one of the tribes of the Duoyan Sanwei.

At that time, Duoyan Sanwei was often the military front of the Yan army in the war, playing the role of a sharp knife, and made the greatest contribution to Zhu Di's "Battle of Jingjing", and was known as the Mongolian warrior.

After Zhu Di became emperor, he fully fulfilled his promise to Duoyan Sanwei, not only rewarded countless gold silks, but also ordered Xuanfu to withdraw thousands of miles from the border passes, and rewarded the vacated land to Duoyan Sanwei.

The internal retreat of the defense was also an important reason why the Warat tribe could easily penetrate into the heart of the Ming Dynasty and exterminate the 400,000 elites of the Ming army in a war. Of course, it's not all, 400,000 elites were wiped out in one fell swoop, and it was Yingzong's personal conquest, this defeat was inexplicable and there was no reason.

When Zhu Di captured the soldiers and horses of King Ning, he promised in person that after the matter was completed, the two took the Yangtze River as the boundary, and the emperors of the north and south. Later, not only did he completely break the promise, but also moved King Ning's fiefdom from the northeast to Nanchang.

Nanchang was not a good place to be crowned king in ancient times, no matter how beautifully Wang Bo's "Preface to the Pavilion of King Teng" was, Nanchang was still a humble and wet place, and King Ning asked to return to the northeast several times, but Zhu Di sternly refused. King Ning had no choice but to eat Coptis chinensis dumbly and couldn't say anything, and he died depressed.

In the Wuzong Dynasty, King Ning rebelled, in fact, he wanted to recover the old account and settle the grievances between King Ning and the court.

Moreover, thinking about these famous episodes in the history of the Ming Dynasty, I am more and more puzzled that the Duchess initiated this party. The British Mansion and the Zhongshan Mansion have similar status, and they are both the first heroes of the founding of the Ming Dynasty and the Battle of Jingjing, unless there are some special circumstances, it seems that they should not be involved in the rivers and lakes.

"Second uncle, what do you think, tell you not to think too much, this matter has nothing to do with you. The Marquise laughed when she saw this, and fell into deep thought.

Besides, he didn't dare to think like this, especially when the prefect of Fengyang specially told him that someone wanted to see him.

"You don't have any grudges with the British government, do you?" Zuo Ling asked in a low voice.

She suddenly thought that besides, she had said that the little prince of the Zhongshan Mansion was his senior brother, and it was difficult to guarantee that he would not have anything to do with the British Mansion. The main reason is that she was suspicious when she saw the bitter look on her face when she heard the British Mansion.

Besides, shaking his head, he was not yet tall enough to have a grudge against these noble families. It's just that when he was embattled, suddenly the lady of the British Mansion suddenly appeared, which made him feel ominous for no reason.

After sending Deqing away, everyone had no intention of eating and drinking, so they gathered in small circles and did what they liked.

Besides, surrounded by some students around the age of 20, everyone did not discuss the things that they were tired of talking about, such as poetry and articles, but what the ancients called idle talk, but no one held a horsetail fly shaker in their hands, and that thing was something that everyone could not leave when the literati of the Wei and Jin dynasties were chatting.

"Brother Xu Ming, in Xu Zhongluo, we may have been a family five hundred years ago. A young student leaned over and laughed.

"It's very likely that thousands of years ago, all the surnames were one family. Besides, he laughed.

The surname was originally the symbol of the primitive tribe, and later evolved into a surname. Although the ancestor of mankind may be the same person, how this person came to be is still a mystery. The theory that God created human beings, the theory that Fuxi Nuwa created human beings, and the Darwinian theory of evolution also have some truth.

"Brother Zhongluo is a prisoner of Nanjing Guozi, the best of my generation. Zuo Dongxu, a cousin of Zuo Dongge, introduced it with a smile.

"The best among the people, the best among the iron, is talking about characters like Brother Xu Ming, how dare I expect it. I heard that Brother Xu Ming is from Wuzhong, and the younger brother is a native of Jinling, so we are all from Jiangnan. "Xu Zhongluo intends to make friends.

"Brother Zhongluo has won the award, Wuzhong is full of talents, such as the younger brother is really a car bucket, and it is not worth mentioning. Besides, he said casually.

Between the words, besides, he has a good impression of Xu Zhongluo, since the other party intends to make friends, he also likes to make friends, and he should have some in-depth communication, but he is currently in danger, and he really doesn't have this thought.

Besides, I don't know what situation I will face next, anyway, there can't be anything good, so I can only respond to all changes with the same, always be vigilant, and deal with sudden doom at any time.

"Brother Xu is lying, I have long heard that the four great talents of Wuzhong are Tang Bohu, Wen Zhengming, Zhou Hongbin and more. However, with Brother Xu Ming's talent, he should have been among the talented people a long time ago, even if he didn't squeeze out one of them, he should be listed as one of the five talents, why don't he have a name?" Xu Zhongluo asked suspiciously.

"My brother has always studied medicine with his father at home, and he has no intention of starting a career, and the article is regarded as a final matter, so he naturally can't stand in Shilin, and he has no name. Besides, he said.

The four great talents of Wuzhong?

Besides, there was a sudden awakening in my heart, haven't they always been the four great talents of Jiangnan, how can they be the four great talents of Wuzhong? But also, Tang Bohu, Wen Zhengming, and Zhou Hongbin are indeed all from Wuzhong, but I don't know when they will also be among them.

However, the four great talents of Jiangnan should not have themselves, but another one, is this not a person from Wuzhong, or has not yet become famous? He thought about who should be the fourth talent, and he couldn't even think of anything for a while. This is definitely a rare strange thing for him, as long as he thinks about something, his mind will immediately react, and there is no blind spot.

"Then when Brother Xu Ming returns to Wuzhong this time, as long as he shows up in Shilin, he will immediately be one of the four great talents. Xu Zhongluo said with a smile.

"Aren't there already people among the four great talents? Brother Xu Ming will squeeze out whom. One student asked with interest.

There are no two ways to write about martial arts, and they are very interested in rankings, what is the first in the world, the first in Jiangnan, etc., as long as these names occupy one place, they are also similar to the champion and Xie Yuan, and they are in the limelight. It's just that the champion and Xie Yuan are famous, and once they pass the exam, they are the same title for life, especially the champion, and the imperial court will also allocate funds to build the champion archway in their hometown.

However, titles such as the first in the world and the first in Jiangnan are not obtained through an exam, but are the result of years of accumulation. Once this kind of number is occupied, it is word of mouth and invincible in the world. For example, at that time, Wang Shichong, a celebrity, was awarded the reputation of the leader of the literary world, and deservedly became the first in the world, compared with ordinary literati, he was like a king and a commoner.

The four great talents of Wuzhong also have the name that they began to establish after the incident, because Chinese like the number four, so well-known things and people must be stained with the word "four", such as the four famous books, the four great folklore, the four beauties, the four great talents, the four famous catches, the four famous prostitutes, etc., if the three talents, the three beauties and the like, people will feel a little lacking in their hearts.

There is no distinction between the first and second among the four talents in Wuzhong, but Tang Bohu is the earliest and the most famous, naturally the first, then Wen Zhengming, and then Zhou Hongbin, and he is the latest to become famous, and he is the youngest, so he naturally has to be at the bottom. But he can't do without him, and without him, he won't become the Big Four.

"It's not who you squeezed out, but one of the four talents is missing. Xu Zhongluo said slowly, as if he was deliberately selling Guanzi.

"Which one is missing?" the students next to him hurriedly asked.

"It's just that he's just becoming famous, and besides, I heard that he had an accident while traveling and disappeared somehow. Brother Xu Ming went back, just to fill his shortage. Xu Zhongluo nodded to himself, very satisfied with his expression.

Zuo Dongxu smiled: "This can't be counted. My generation of literati went out to study, and there were many people who didn't hear from me for three or two years. That brother may have gone to a relatively remote and desolate place, and it is difficult to communicate for a while, and he may appear at any time. ”

"Exactly. Brother Zuo is right. ”

Others also echoed this point of view, at that time the transportation was not developed enough, the postal system was one relied on the post station of the imperial court, and the other was to entrust people to carry letters, the latter is particularly ordinary, after all, the post station is for official use, and ordinary people are not qualified to squeeze into that car.

Don't say that the dynasty, that is, the Qing Dynasty, so that until the late Republic of China, people who go out send letters to their families, or are still accustomed to asking people to carry them. Especially young people, their thinking is lively and changeable, and once they leave home, they may go through several turns, and it is normal to have no news for a year and a half.

Xu Zhongluo said with a smile: "Otherwise, it would not be surprising if this is the case." But this brother is indeed missing, now not only the entire Wuzhong, even the ground of Jinling is combed like a grate, there are people in the whole province of Jiangxi who are looking for him, the whole Jiangnan commotion is violent, it is said that only when King Ning rebelled, it can be compared. ”

"How can this be? This brother Tai doesn't really want to rebel, so as to cause such a big movement?" Zuo Dongge said with a smile, still half-believing in his heart.

"Rebellion will not be, I have been a monk for a hundred years, and it has become a climate early, and literati will never rebel. Literature can govern the country, and there is no need to fight. Xu Zhongluo's answer was very natural and hearty.

"Then why does Banjiangnan have to find this person? Another person asked.

Half of the people in Jiangnan are also asking this question, but no one can answer. Xu Zhongluo smiled indifferently and looked at the situation intentionally or unintentionally.
