In October of the tenth year of the Great Cause, Yuming led an army of 250,000 to attack Shandong in less than two months after pacifying Hebei, Dou Jiande was defeated and died, and Shandong also became the territory of the newly established Great Zhou.

Yu Ming ordered Lieutenant Chi Jingde to lead 80,000 troops to stay in Shandong, and then he and Li Jing returned to Hebei with more than 100,000 surrendered troops. He intends to recuperate for a few months before resuming the attack after the beginning of spring next year.

After all, from April to October, for half a year, the Zhou army has been fighting, and it is a big battle with more than 200,000 troops. Although the battle was fruitful and Hebei and Shandong were pacified, the soldiers were very tired. And so many surrenders also need to be reorganized and trained, and officers are reappointed. If the attack is to be launched again in the spring of the next year, the Zhou army will also need time to prepare for the grain and grass.

The past few months of recuperation can be regarded as the easiest day after Yuming's army. The Zhou army did not fight, and he, the coach, naturally ended up easily. As for internal affairs, he has completely entrusted Changsun Wuji, Du Ruhui, Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling and others to deal with it, and he does not interfere at all.

Moreover, even if he wanted to intervene, he was a little powerless, after all, he was not good at internal affairs, and Yuming might be able to propose a large framework and formulate some principled outlines. Specific measures and provisions have to be drafted and implemented by the people below.

During this time, Yuming appeared most often on the campus that had been moved from Liaodong to Beiping and had been renamed the Great Zhou Military Academy, helping to train officers.

Today, Li Jing has been officially appointed as the president of the Great Zhou Military Academy, responsible for teaching. His task was not only to train the officers of the Zhou army, but also to shoulder the heavy responsibility of merging several forces among the generals. Because several factions have already appeared in the Zhou army, there has been some competition between them.

The largest is naturally the Liaodong faction, which has followed Yuming for the longest time and is also the most loyal to Yuming, which can be said to have grown up with Yuming.

The second is the Youzhou faction, although Luo Yi and Luo Shou died in battle, there is still Luo Cheng. The former officers of the Youzhou Army naturally looked forward to Luo Chengma. Now that Luo Cheng and Yu Yuqing have become a couple, they naturally transferred their loyalty to Luo's father to Yu Ming.

And the last faction is the surrender faction, most of these people are generals other than the Liaodong Army and the Youzhou Army, after the Zhou army destroyed the Hebei Army and the Shandong Army, a large number of surrendered troops were subdued. These people also surrendered to Yuming, although their positions are not high, but there are quite a few of them. The reorganization and training of these people will make them truly return to the Great Zhou, so that they can integrate into the Zhou army, instead of becoming hidden dangers. This is also the key work of the Zhou army's internal rectification and ideological education recently.

……

On this day, when Yuming had just given a lecture to the officers and returned to the mansion from the Great Zhou Military Academy, he saw Yang Luoqi and Li Xiuning coming towards him.

"Husband, can you take me to walk around Beiping City? After the concubine came to Beiping, she never went to the street to stroll, I heard that now Beiping has become the trading center of foreign trade in the north, and the merchants gathered, and the concubine wanted to see it. Li Xiuning said with interest.

At this time, she whispered and said: "Husband, Sister Luo Qi has been grieving because of her father's death, and the concubine finally managed to appease her. You'll have to go shopping with her today so that she can recover as soon as possible! Otherwise, it will be difficult for your inspectorate to function. ”

After hearing this, Yuming's heart trembled, and he thought for a moment, then nodded again and again.

When Yuming rebelled and attacked Youzhou before, Yang Guang was still there, and he knew that Yang Luoqi came to his side, implying surveillance, so he naturally restrained this princess in his own mansion in Liaodong City, and tried not to let her go out.

Later, Beiping was captured, and Yang Luoqi naturally went to the new mansion. After receiving the news of Yang Guang's death, she was very sad, and she had no intention of going out without anyone stopping her, and washed her face with tears at home all day long. It was only recently that I picked myself up from my grief and my mood returned to normal.

Although she knew that Yang Guang died at the hands of Yuhua He, she hated him very much, but now Yuhua He is also dead. Therefore, Yang Luoqi has lost the object of hatred, she still loves Yuming deeply, and knows that the fatherly relationship between her husband and father-in-law has always been bad. Therefore, under Li Xiuning's comfort, she gradually figured it out.

In the past, during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Western Wei Dynasty replaced the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Northern Zhou Dynasty replaced the Western Wei Dynasty, and then the Sui Dynasty replaced the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Now that his father made a mistake in governing the world, it led to chaos in the whole country, and it was natural for the Sui Dynasty to be replaced by other candidates.

In contrast, his husband Jun Yuming has always adhered to the courtesy of the monarch and the minister, and even if his father wanted to arrest him, he did not declare his opposition to Sui. Now that the Great Sui has been destroyed, as the princess of the Great Sui, if she can give birth to children with Yuming, it can be regarded as preserving the bloodline for the Sui Yang family.

Therefore, after opening this knot, Yang Luoqi is no longer angry about his father's death in Yuhua and his hands, and he is no longer angry with Yuming.

After listening to Li Xiuning's words, Yuming also felt in his heart, he thought that his father killed the monarch and usurped the throne, and it was indeed not good to say it. Now Yang Luoqi finally cheered up, whether it was public or private, as a husband, she should accompany her more.

So, he nodded and said, "Okay! As a husband, I will take you around the most prosperous place in Beiping! ”

After that, Yuming said to Zhang Zhongjian again: "Uncle Shi, you can bring a team of guards and soldiers to go with me!" Luo Qi and Xiuning and I are going to go to the metropolis for a walk......"

After Zhang Zhongjian answered, he was about to turn around and gather the guards.

"Wait!" When Yang Luoqi heard this, she was in a hurry, and hurriedly stopped Zhang Zhongjian.

"What else does the princess command?" Zhang Zhongjian hurriedly bowed and asked.

"Husband, we are going shopping, so we don't have to be so ostentatious. Take a large group of guards and soldiers to the street, and don't scare all the surnames on the street away? I followed a large group of soldiers to go shopping, and I was terrified when I looked at the people on the street. What's the point of shopping? Yang Luoqi pouted.

"Luo Qi, what do you mean......" Yu Ming said with some confusion.

"Husband, why don't we go shopping! This is our land, are you afraid that someone will be against us? And your martial arts are also very strong, so it should be no problem to protect our sisters, right? Yang Luoqi said with a pair of big eyes.

Yu Ming smiled bitterly, it is true that he is strong in martial arts, but there are so many masters in the world, and he is not invincible. And if someone wants to deliberately plot against him, he doesn't dare to say that he can get out of the way.

It's just that if you dress up and dress up as an ordinary surname, it won't be eye-catching.

"So be it! Princess, my subordinates brought more than a dozen guards with strong martial arts skills to change into civilian clothes and follow you far behind, if there is any danger, we will come up to protect you again! This will not affect your shopping, but also keep you safe! What do you think? Zhang Zhongjian saw that Yuming had a look of embarrassment on his face, and hurriedly spoke out to relieve the siege.

Yang Luoqi's beautiful big eyes turned, secretly thinking that if this is the case, it is acceptable, so he nodded and said, "Okay!" Let's go shopping! ”

Yu Ming also nodded helplessly, made a "please" gesture and said, "Then let's get ready to leave!" ”

Before going out, Yu Ming dressed up in disguise, and in addition to changing into ordinary cloth clothes, Yu Ming also specially wore a felt hat to cover his face.

Yang Luoqi changed into a light cyan dress, outlining her slender and delicate body with exquisite curves.

Li Xiuning changed into a white dress, which looked even more beautiful and refined. The two women were dressed in cloth clothes and hairpin skirts, and they went out with Yuming with their faces facing the sky.

……

The most prosperous and lively metropolis in Beiping City is full of bustling people at this time.

After the Liaodong Army took over, the market in Beiping became more prosperous, and merchants from all over the world gathered here. Turkic, Japanese, Tibetan, Persian, Nanyang, and large-food merchants can be seen everywhere. In contrast, there were not many merchants from the Central Plains. The main reason is that the Central Plains has been in civil strife, and people everywhere are thinking more about how to save their lives and how to raise food, and not many people have the heart to buy luxury.

In addition, most of the merchants from the Central Plains came to Beiping to purchase war horses, weapons, armor, grain and other things. However, these materials were strictly forbidden to be sold by the Great Zhou court. Because these are all strategic materials used in the army, these candidates in the Central Plains may be Yuming's opponents in the future, how could he be stupid enough to fund his enemies? Therefore, the merchants of the Central Plains came the least.

Yuming can really use the time to go shopping, especially in the past six months, almost all of the time has been spent on fighting and planning, and the last time he went out shopping was July or August ago.

Li Xiuning and Yang Luoqi's reactions were similar, they both looked around with a happy face, looking at the dazzling array of merchants in the store.

And Yuming is to observe whether the market is more prosperous, after all, Beiping is now the capital of the Great Zhou. Its prosperity is equivalent to the economic weather vane, if Beiping is commercially developed, it means that the economic strength of the Great Zhou will be stronger.

After a while, the people walked to a shop selling jade, and Yang Luoqi was quickly attracted by all kinds of beautiful jade hairpins. begged Yuming to buy him a jade hairpin as a gift, saying that it was as compensation for not being able to accompany her for a while.

Yu Ming also felt pity after hearing this, and thought that Yang Luoqi was originally a princess of the Great Sui, which can be described as a body of golden branches and jade leaves. Now it is the death of his father and the collapse of the country, and it is a good thing that his father has done. At the moment, her relatives are only herself, and she has to take good care of her. So he agreed and was ready to pay for Yang Luoqi's jade hairpin.
