Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Northern Yuan Aristocrats

Seeing that the time was almost up, Zhu Biao asked Lan Yu Muying to lead them to drink, and after a while, everyone in the camp went out except for Quan Xu and Liu Jin.

Zhu Biao leisurely took a few chopsticks, then looked at the somewhat distracted Prince of the Northern Yuan Dynasty and asked, "Are these people credible?" ”

The prince of Beiyuan was stunned for a moment before he reacted, and said with a smile: "It's very credible!" They're kind of stuck to you now, the kind that can't get rid of you. ”

Zhu Biao nodded and said, "That's fine, this palace really doesn't have time to waste on Beiyuan." ”

The prince of Beiyuan looked at Zhu Biao, who looked a little sad, and asked: "Nanming is like a sun, and your status is as stable as Mount Tai, but you are curious, what else do you have to worry about?" ”

Zhu Biao looked at the prince of the Northern Yuan Dynasty and said: "What your Yuan Dynasty left us is a mess, and it will take many years just to clean up the mountains and rivers, how can you not worry." ”

The prince of Beiyuan laughed twice: "Why worry, you are still so young." ”

After speaking, the two looked at each other for a while, and the two princes of the Great Unification Dynasty actually discussed state affairs together, which is really a strange story for the ages, and the two of them suddenly laughed, especially the prince of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, and the tears of laughter were about to come out.

Zhu Biao's face was a little stiff when he was smiling, and he reached out and rubbed his face and said, "It's not too early, please go on the road." ”

The prince of Beiyuan covered his stomach, he laughed so much that he almost vomited all the food he had just eaten, slowly stood up and straightened his waist, and smiled and hugged Zhu Biao's fist: "Then Lone will take the first step." ”

Zhu Biao sat up straight and looked at the prince of the Northern Yuan Dynasty solemnly, only to see him tidy up his sleeves, take out a delicate dagger inlaid with gems from his waist, slowly pull out the blade, and said to Zhu Biao: "This dagger will be left for you as a souvenir, thank you for this meal of wine and meat." ”

After speaking, he wiped his neck neatly, Zhu Biao looked at the prince of Beiyuan who slowly fell to the ground, and the words in his mind inexplicably appeared Wang Baobao, who also killed himself......

Liu Jin stepped forward and took out the dagger, but did not hand it over to Zhu Biao, this weapon that had just finished killing people should be placed next to him first.

Zhu Biao relieved himself and instructed Quan Xu: "Collect his corpse, no one is allowed to insult him, and wait until the grassland finds a place with good feng shui to bury him." ”

I want to see and think about it, I told Liu Jin: "Those things of mine, pick some good ones for him to be buried." ”

The prince of the Northern Yuan Dynasty thanked Zhu Biao for giving him dignity, and Zhu Biao also thanked him for not disgrace the prince.

The next day, Zhu Biao led the army to Shangdu, and Zhu Biao only brought 20,000 with those who surrendered to the army, and the rest was brought back to Beiping by Liu Bowen.

Zhu Biao ordered Lan Yu and several generals to lead the cavalry, of which seventy percent were Ming troops and three percent were surrendered troops, Zhu Biao was originally worried that someone would escape, but in the end he found out. Under the management of those generals, the troops were very well-behaved.

There was no delay along the way, and the questions encountered on the road were also answered by those generals, they were all noble cavalry, and the people on the road did not dare to ask more questions after a few whips, so they were the princes of the Northern Yuan Dynasty who returned to the court.

Not only was the journey smooth, but in order to gain Zhu Biao's favor, those generals forcibly seized the cattle and sheep of those herdsmen along the way, and the pressure on the supply of grain and grass for the army was greatly reduced.

Zhu Biao naturally would not be stingy with praise, and after a few times, they were no longer that kind of apprehensive appearance, and they regarded themselves as soldiers of the Ming Dynasty with peace of mind.

A few days later, he finally arrived near Shangdu, and the journey was a little too smooth, and Zhu Biao was a little suspicious that it was the Northern Yuan side that was playing the trick.

Secretly instructed Lan Yu to kill them as long as those generals behaved strangely.

Zhu Biao was not too nervous, after all, the Northern Yuan Dynasty had no troops to fight Zhu Biao, and all he was worried about was that the Northern Yuan Emperor had escaped and let him run for nothing.

The generals each wrote letters and sent them to Shangdu, and in the evening there was a reply, which was full of praises to Zhu Biao, and assured that the Northern Yuan Emperor was in the city, and no matter when Zhu Biao's army arrived, they could open the city gate to welcome the king.

Zhu Biao did not relax his vigilance, until the former army really entered the upper capital, and the generals defending the city respectfully guided the route of the former army, Zhu Biao really stared at the tomb where the Northern Yuan was buried.

Zhu Biao had not yet entered the city, and under his horse was kneeling a group of princes and nobles of the Northern Yuan, representing all the forces of the Northern Yuan except the imperial family.

All the rebellious forces in the city have been eliminated, Zhu Biao only dismounted and set foot on the capital under the support of the pro-army and those Northern Yuan nobles, and the houses on both sides of the road were hidden by trembling civilians, and the capital fell too quickly, and they had not yet reacted to what was happening.

Zhu Biao didn't have the idea of slaughtering the city, so after entering the city, he announced that Quan Xu would lead people to restrain those soldiers, but some movement could still be heard in the corner of the city where there were still some riots in the distance, and there were women and children.........

Lan Yu Muying, who had killed a few back and forth in the city, walked up to Zhu Biao, knelt down on one knee respectfully and shouted: "Congratulations to the general for breaking the capital!" ”

Zhu marked this and asked them to get up and ordered: "Restrain the people, don't disturb the families of those who have taken refuge." There are also orders, everything they want will be clear to the generals, and they will be given, but if they violate military discipline, they will blame the ruthlessness of military law. ”

Lan Yu Muying went as promised, and the princes and nobles around Zhu Biao were moved to tears, what they were most worried about was that in addition to their own lives, the family's finances would be looted, although they were all hidden, but it was naturally good to be able to do a lot. ”

Facing the endless praise beside him, Zhu Biao opened his mouth and said: "You are all well-educated people, and you must have heard my sentence in the Central Plains to break wealth and avoid disasters, you could have restrained your subordinates, but you should also express it, right?" ”

The original Privy Council minister Buyan Timur said: "This is natural, I have come from afar as a Ming soldier, and we should show cattle and sheep to entertain, gold and silver and finances are all things outside the body, and we should dedicate them to Your Highness." ”

Qingtong, the prime minister of the original Chinese book, said: "I am willing to give all my family wealth to His Royal Highness, just to keep my family safe." ”

The rest of the people also made their own promises, and as for the amount of all the wealth in their mouths, it was not a lot.

Zhu Biao didn't care, the grassland was too far away from Daming, and if he wanted to really control here, it would take time.

Instead of killing these rotten Northern Yuan nobles, it is better to let them live and take care of the grassland for him.

The vast land is very easy to give birth to heroes, and it is better to maintain the rotten rule here than to create conditions for the rise of those troublesome guys.

As for wealth, when he comes again, everything in the steppe will be his, so why bother?

appeased the Northern Yuan nobles, and promised that as long as they sent their families to Beiping, Zhu Biao would help them go to the imperial court, divide the grassland to them, and as long as they provided cattle, sheep and horses every year, they could always rule the grassland.
