In May of the eighth year of Yongle, the Northern Xinjiang War Report was sent to the capital.

Contrary to the expectations of the ministers, Arutai led 3,000 cavalry to confront the border army for several days, but it was not a border offense, but an internal annex.

"Your Majesty, Arutai is cunning and scheming, and this is probably a sign of weakness. The attachment is false, and the conspiracy is true. Please think twice! ”

The opinions of the ministers are approaching-unifying-unifying, and it is rare for the six departments of the imperial court and the five military governors to have the same position, and they all think that Arutai's move is suspicious, and the attachment is even more suspicious, and it is definitely a complete set, and it must not be credulous.

Zhu Di did not make a decision in the court, and after retreating from the court, he immediately drafted the decree and ordered the internal officials to quickly rush to Xuanfu.

"Tell the king of Han that the Tartars should not be gullible. It is included, and there is also the possibility of trouble. However, in the spring ploughing season, the swords and soldiers suddenly rise, and the smoke covers the sun, fearing that the agricultural time will be missed and the people's grain for a year will be damaged. The lesser of two evils, according to my will, look at its authenticity, act according to the opportunity, and do not be careless. It is important to ensure the stability of the border and the stability of the border people. If things change, don't hesitate, send the elite cavalry out of the fortress, move before the enemy, occupy the opportunity, and be invincible. ”

"Slave obeys!"

In order to speed up the journey, Yizha only brought two eunuchs, and sent three captains to accompany him by the Fusi of Jinyi Weibei Town, first take the waterway, cross the territory of Shandong, transfer to a fast horse, one person and two horses, and pass the post station without stopping, and Shengsheng will shorten the travel time by half.

Entering the Hejian Mansion, I happened to meet the Xinding team of the battlements, asked the officials and soldiers, smelled the wolf smoke on the side for several days, and the Xuanfu had already moved the sword soldiers, and the group was all anxious.

"Keep on your way, don't stop at night!"

Born in the defeated tribes of Mongolia, he has been skilled in arching horses since childhood. During the Jing disaster, he went on expeditions with Zhu Di many times. Although he did not make great contributions like Bai Yanhui, he was given a name by the Son of Heaven, and his military exploits were not small. In the team of eunuchs born in Beiping, their skills are not weak, and ordinary soldiers are not opponents.

"Take the hemp rope and tie it to the waist and legs on the horse's back. Light the torch, take the shortcut, and hurry up! ”

The order was issued, not to mention the fellow eunuchs, and the Jinyi Wei couldn't help but admire.

If the military man is still enough, a lieutenant can do this, no wonder His Majesty reuses the eunuch from Beiping, and he deserves to be a gentleman!

At this time, Meng Tong and Shen Xuan had arrived in Beijing.

The two went to the line department to report on their work, only to know that Xu Huizu was sick. It's not that he can't get sick like Cheng Guogong, but really-bedridden.

"Wei Guogong suffered from the wind and cold, and he did not recuperate, and accidentally caused an old disease."

Hearing the words of the good doctor of the Guogong Mansion, Meng Yi patted his head and hurriedly took out the pills prescribed to him by the envoy of the Zhao Academy, and took a prescription by the way.

"This is a pill prepared by the Zhao Yuan of Tai Hospital, which is specially designed for health preservation. According to this prescription, the dosage is increased or decreased as appropriate, and Ding Guogong has also taken it. ”

The good doctor carefully took the prescription, pondered it for a long time, and said several times: "Wonderful! Wonderful! ”

"In Dr. Wang's opinion, Wei Guogong can use this party?"

"Available. This recipe is mild, ordinary people take it, and it is also beneficial to strengthen the body, and it is more suitable for the condition of the grandfather. Thank you, uncle, the old man will dispense the medicine immediately. ”

Xu Huizu's illness couldn't wait, so Dr. Wang thanked him and left in a hurry, leaving Meng Han on the spot.

Uncle Meng didn't care, he just visited Xu Huizu and went through the motions.

In each other's identities, they should maintain a general relationship. If you get too close, it really becomes a "friendship", which is not good for both parties. He doesn't care about the saliva of the official, he always has to think about one or two for Dingguo Gong.

Leaving the Wei State Mansion in Beijing, Meng first went to the military governor's mansion to order Mao.

Because Xu Huizu couldn't take charge of the business, Shen Xuan took over the training and was busy every day, getting up, sleeping, and mostly in the barracks, and it was rare to see each other for a few days.

Meng had nothing to do, so he was idle and went to Meng Qingyi's house to live for a few days. In front of Meng Wang's family, he fulfilled his filial piety, agreed with Meng Qingyi on spring plowing and sowing, personally inspected the fields, and solved many problems.

Everything was settled, and after receiving a letter from Zhu Wang, the commander of Daningdu, he finally decided to take action against the Daning Political Envoy and the Inspectorate.

Returning the iron coupons and showing his heart to Emperor Yongle, Meng acted with a lot less scruples.

According to the collusion between the envoy and him, a few people in the envoy department also wavered in their position, and disobeyed Zhu Wang's orders, and the evidence was in Zhu Wang's hands, and he was sent to Beijing by borrowing brocade guards.

Meng sneered, wrote it himself, and sent three impeachment letters to Nanjing.

The patrol press Yushi turned a blind eye to the corpse vegetarian diner, and opened up to the greed-dirt-harm-people?

Well, here he comes!

Soon after the impeachment was handed over, there was a sudden earthquake in the Yamen of the Third Division of Daning, and the political envoy and the envoy were replaced, and they were imprisoned for supervising the grain road and guarding the road to participate in politics. In the Yamen of the Dusi, one of the Tongzhi went to Jinyi Prison, and two servants went home to farm. The backer collapsed, and more than half of the faces in the tax tax and inspection were lost in an instant.

Led by Zhu Wang, the commander of Daningdu, he looked at his former colleagues who picked up the package and sneered.

Xingningbo is not powerful, when he is really like a face to bully?

I think that back then, the six departments of Nanjing were turned upside down by him, and they were sent to the southwest mountains to teach and teach in the middle of the matter. In the past two years, the uncle has become more and more calm, and he has forgotten the lessons of his early years? It's really looking for death!

When the Son of Heaven was on his northern tour, there were already faint signs. Later, when the army conquered the grassland, there was a war, and there was no way to free up, so these sneaky villains could live happily for a few days.

The wise should stop and erase the beginning and tail as soon as possible. The previous income is enough to feed three generations.

The result?

still didn't know how to restrain himself, and even used the convenience of his position to collect the black materials of his uncle's "greed, stolen goods, perverted law, and compete with the people for profit", and secretly passed on the news with Hu Guang, a scholar from Hanlin.

How is it now? What should be cleaned up, it should be cleaned up.

Do you really think that a few Hanlin jumps a few times, and they can pull Uncle Ye off the horse?

The mantis arm is used as a car, hitting the stone with an egg, but it is just a big dream in the spring and autumn.

Cleaning up the three divisions of Daning has long been the meaning of the title. Meng saw that Emperor Yongle had already planned to do so, so he took advantage of the situation. He knew that after cleaning up a group of people, the three divisions of Daning were still there, and it was impossible to restore the situation of the command of the three divisions of Daning. But it is enough to achieve the purpose of "fox fake tiger might", with the help of Emperor Yongle's east wind, to establish a prestige for himself.

After this incident, the new officials will definitely get rid of some of the "bad habits" and know what to do and what not to do. The lesson of the previous car is not far away, dare to hit the idea of the tax department, and insert a nail to the mutual market and the military tun, which hand to stretch out, which hand to chop!

One qiē is the treasury and the inner treasury.

Uncle Meng has a firm position and good reasons.

At the same time that the Daning Third Division was cleaned up, Yisha and his party arrived in Beijing. After seeing Shen Xuan, he changed the route and immediately went north to Xuanfu.

Uncle Meng is not in charge of the army, but Shen Xuan can't stay out of the matter.

Under an order, 5,000 cavalry marched north and patrolled Kaipingwei to Wanquanwei. The person who led the troops was Chen Heng, the grandson of Chen Heng, the prince of Jingguo, who was promoted to the military capital governor's mansion by Yu Linwei not long after returning from Korea, Chen Ji.

"Grandpa Guo is not going?"

"No, no." Shen Xuan put down the official document, leaned back in the chair, held Meng's wrist, and wiped his thumb over the cyan veins, "Your Majesty intends to move the capital next year, I intend to be the same as the Duke of Chengguo, not the order of the Son of Heaven, and I will no longer ask for the command of the army." ”

No longer in charge?

In an instant, several thoughts flashed through Meng's mind, and finally all of them turned into a sigh.

Stretched out his arm, hugged the back of Shen Xuan's neck, and for the first time, hugged him into his arms in a protective posture.

"Ziyu, I'll accompany you."

Shen Xuan closed his eyes, didn't move, didn't make a sound, and breathed shallowly.

Meng straightened his back, and his fingers ran through his black hair, but it was a shame that Grandpa Guo didn't wear a veil...... Well, he shouldn't have wandered at this time.

Outside the window, the sun is setting, and the red light reflects the clouds on the horizon.

In May, the spring is still cold, and only the arms of the people in front of you can warm each other.

"Twelve."

"Huh?"

Meng didn't want to move, even if his feet were numb, he didn't want to move, he didn't want to move.

A single sound is made in the nose, as if in an unconscious response.

The next moment, his arms suddenly emptied, he opened his eyes, and his body suddenly left the ground.

Not surprised, Meng smiled.

grabbed Shen Xuan's shoulders and glanced at the stack of high on the case, the meaning is very clear, no matter?

Shen Xuan hooked his lips, turned his head sideways, and blocked Meng's mouth fiercely.

No matter.

Let him go.

"Tomorrow's business, don't care?"

The sound bypassed the screen and quickly became muffled.

“…… Twelve Lang is here, Xuan is flawless......"

Stuck on the couch, looking at the top of the tent, Meng fiercely buckled Shen Xuan's shoulder, since this is the case, let's go crazy......

High-ranking officials are Houlu, the Son of Heaven - pet - lucky.

Wealth, status, glory.

In the end, the only thing you can have is the person in front of you. The only thing that can hold it is these hands.

In May of the eighth year of Yongle, Xingningbo took leave due to business, and Dingguo was absent from work for no reason.

The next day, Xing Ningbo continued to take leave, and Dingguo Gong continued to be absent from work.

On the other day, Xingningbo was still on leave, but Dingguo Gong was absent from work.

The Xuanfu war report arrived, and Arutai was indeed sincere, and in order to gain the trust of the Ming Dynasty, he did not hesitate to spend his blood and sent his eldest son and second son to Beijing Guozijian to study. In other words, parent-child is the hostage.

This does not mean that the matter is settled, because Warat has suddenly become dishonest.

What kind of attitude Mahamu has is unknown. It is an indisputable fact that King Taiping led 2,000 cavalry to invade the border and had a skirmish with the officers and soldiers of Xuanfu.

"Wara invaded the border, and the Xuanfu border army went to war, beheaded more than 100 people, and captured 300."

When the war report arrived in Nanjing, Emperor Yongle was furious and ordered Wenyuan Pavilion to draft an edict and send 100,000 troops to conquer Wara.

"The ambition of the wolf son of Wara, going back on his word, violating my border, I personally led the army to conquer!"

The Son of Heaven pro-conquest?

The ministers looked at each other, how long did it stop, and they wanted to go north again?

Looking at the generals of the dynasty, Chengguo announced that he was sick, Wei Guogong was bedridden, and Dingguo Gong guarded Beijing, and he couldn't take half a step.

Qi Guogong ...... It is better to stay at home to raise flowers and study, and cultivate temperament.

In April, the Marquis of Xincheng led his troops to Cochin, not to suppress the rebellion, but to suppress the rebellion, but because of the recent instability in Siam, Laos, the Ming Dynasty needed to exert the spirit of internationalism and promote peace with the army. In the short term, Zhang Fu will definitely not be able to return to the court.

Pingjiang Bo Chen Xuan and Governor Liu Sheng were good at water warfare, and land warfare was just average.

King Zhao went to sea with the fleet and couldn't count on it.

The king of Han still wanted to consolidate the border defense and organize the tuntian. If the northern Xinjiang town guards the handsome seal, how can he Fu Mengshan, who would dare to use the King of Han as a deputy?

After thinking about it, except for the Son of Heaven's personal conquest, he really couldn't find the most suitable candidate to lead the troops.

When Queen Xu heard the news, she was very indifferent, as if she had expected it. Call the palace people and send the robe she sewn by herself to the Son of Heaven.

Zhu Zhanji sat on the side and never said anything. Zhu Zhan's big eyes are bright, and the emperor's grandfather is out of the plug, can he also accompany him?

Seeing through what Zhu Zhanyan thought, Queen Xu chuckled, just like that, the tiger and cat in the cage can't compare. At the age of the elder brother and the fourth brother, they are all rolling in the barracks. is Gao Xu and Gao Sui, and they are not less educated by the Son of Heaven with a whip.

Only Gao Chi ......

Empress Xu paused, her gaze swept over Zhu Zhanji, and she became gentle again. In this case, it doesn't hurt to mention it to the Son of Heaven.

Bring both grandchildren and grow up early, and you will never fall - the prestige of your ancestors.

On the same day, after Zhu Di went down to the court, he went to Kunning Palace to dine with Queen Xu.

Empress Xu took the opportunity to mention the matter of the emperor's grandson's retinue, and Zhu Di nodded happily, "Zitong's meaning is what I think." However, my grandson is so old, and I am also old. ”

"Your Majesty is not old." Empress Xu smiled, "Your Majesty is in the prime of life, how can you say that you are old?" ”

"Ageless?"

"Not old."

"At this age, how can you not be old?"

"At this age?" Empress Xu smiled dignifiedly, slowly pinched the marigold in her hand, put it in the palm of her hand, and said softly, "In the eyes of His Majesty, is it old at this age?" ”

"......" Zhu Di swallowed, he forgot that Zitong was only two years younger than him.

accidentally stabbed the hornet's nest, and the result was that since then, Zhu Di has never mentioned the word "old". Who dares to say this word in front of him and kick it away.

In June of the eighth year of Yongle, the Son of Heaven issued an order to gather the officers and troops of the guard north of the Yangtze River, totaling 100,000, to conquer Tatar.

The holy decree was delivered to the Xuanfu, Zhu Gaoxu slapped the table, stood up and laughed a few times, and after two months of grievance, he was finally able to get back to the field!

Arutai had not yet been officially enthroned by the imperial court, and could only camp outside the city with the tribesmen.

The days of being frightened and bullied by Warat and the savage Jurchen in shifts have finally become history. Even if the Warat army was a few miles away, Arutai could sleep soundly.

From restoring the glory of the Great Yuan to the snort of the Ming Dynasty, just to survive, Arutai's mentality has undergone earth-shaking changes.

The long career of running for his life made him completely understand how unrealistic his "dream" was. The land of the Central Plains has already changed its new owner, and it is really a fool's dream to support a fool to restore the glory of the Yuan Dynasty.

"Silly, I'm so stupid!"

This phrase has almost become the mantra of Arutai.

"However, Mahmu is more stupid than Lao Tzu."

wanted to follow his example and support the "Golden Family Man", but his head was really stoned. If he hadn't mastered the movements of Warat and had a "letter of nomination" to the Son of Heaven of the Ming Dynasty, how would he dare to run to the border of the Ming Dynasty.

"Inform the emperor of the Ming Dynasty about this, it can't be compared to Uliangha, and it shouldn't be difficult to return to the tribal pasture."

Arutai lived up to his cunning name, crossed the border of Warat, and led the Taiping to pursue, all of which were in his plan. It's just that I didn't expect that Taiping had the courage and no strategy, and he actually started with the border army of the Ming Dynasty.

Piercing the dagger into the leg of mutton, tearing off a piece of mutton that was still covered with blood, putting it into his mouth and chewing it, wiping off the oil from the corner of his mouth, Arutai smiled proudly.

The more such substitutes for the dead, the more the better!

Arutai was proud, but Mahammu of Warat's headquarters burned his eyebrows. Knowing that the Ming Dynasty had gathered an army of 100,000 and was ready to do something to himself, Mahamu's first thought was not to resist, but to escape.

He hated to kill Taiping with one sword.

Can't endure the anger for a while? I want to do it with the border army of the Ming Dynasty at this time! It turned out that his bitter words and persuasion had become nonsense!

For today's plan, the only way to do this is to preserve our strength and run away.

But where to go?

Mahamu frowned deeply.

As for the peace that caused this catastrophe...... Whoever causes the trouble will clean it up, let him die!

At the end of June, the holy car was stationed in Shuntian.

Zhu Zhanji Zhu Zhan Yan followed, Shen Xuan led the Chinese army, Meng was still the deputy, and led the Shenji battalion to Kaiping.

In the same month, the town guard of Guizhou flew into Beijing together with the king of peace.

Zhu Gaochi, the king of Ping, was infected with miasma, and was already terminally ill, and sought medical treatment in many ways, but there was still no medicine and stone, and asked Zhu Zhanji, the son of King Ping, to succeed the prince in Beijing and take the Pu'an Prefecture.

Hearing the content of the above table, Queen Xu was furious, "King Ping is seriously ill, why didn't he report it to the palace?" Concealing his illness, can he put King Ping in his eyes?! ”

"Back to Your Highness, it's not that you don't report it, it's ......"

"Say!"

"It's Princess Ping, who suppressed the news."

Empress Xu was furious and personally wrote a letter to the Son of Heaven, took the token of the Middle Palace, and sent it to the Son of Heaven.

Soon, the news of King Ping's critical illness spread in the court. In contrast, Xie Jin's death and Hu Guang and Huang Huai's imprisonment in Jinyi have become less noticeable.

The dark tide in the land of the two capitals was turbulent, and His Royal Highness King Zhao, who went down to the West by boat, stood at the bow of the ship, with a radiant spirit, high spirits, and golden eyes. He just shouted at the sea: "Gold and silver treasures, overseas lands, lonely come!" ”

If a skull flag is replaced on the mast of the treasure ship, Zhu Gaosui holds a scimitar in his hand and laughs wildly at the sea, he is really not a pirate, but a pirate.

Compared with Zhu Gaosui's ambition, Zheng He's previous series of methods can be called mild.

Zheng He and Wang Jinghong chewed the pills, their faces were pale, and they looked at Zhu Gaosui's back, they were really envious.

I want to go to sea for the first time...... Don't mention it!

Look at His Royal Highness King Zhao again, they are all going to sea, why is this gap so big?
