Lan Yu stepped into the mountain gate of Qingshou Temple, only to see the cypress trees in the atrium of the temple, and the two octagonal brick towers with dense eaves towering into the clouds. Qingshou Temple is located in the southwest corner of Yanwangfu, built in the period of Jin Xuanzong, the cost is huge, solemn and majestic is the crown of the capital, after the merit of the prince of Yuan, the twin towers in the temple, one is nine levels, one is seven levels, respectively to commemorate the abbot Haiyun and Ke'an master built.

Lan Yu walked across the Feihong Bridge, and an old monk stepped forward to greet him, and said with his hands together: "Amitabha, the old man Daoyan has seen the general." ”

Lan Yu looked at the old monk, dressed in black, with a pair of thick eyebrows, eyes like triangles, and a sallow face, like a sick tiger, and recognized that it was Dao Yan, the current abbot of Qingshou Temple, so he returned the salute: "Lan Yu has seen the master." ”

Dao Yan introduced Lan Yu to the abbot, and Xiao Sha Mi withdrew after serving tea, Lan Yu saw that there was no one left and right, and said in a low voice: "There is an abbot of Lao." ”

Dao Yan clasped his hands together again and said: "The general has an overreputation, and the old man just did a water and land ritual for her, and he surpassed the soul of the dead, which can be regarded as fulfilling the duty of the monk's compassion." The body has been burned, and the ashes are buried at the foot of Wolong Mountain outside the southern city, and everything has been settled. ”

Lan Yu sighed and said: "This Quan clan will not die sooner or later, but it is really annoying to die when he sacrifices a prisoner to King Yan, how to deal with the aftermath is really tricky." ”

Dao Yan said quietly: "According to the old man's foolish opinion, the general can only play the situation after the Quan clan escorts Beiping, touches the scene, commits suicide in shame, and does not mention the rest." ”

Lan Yu glanced at Dao Yan and said, "I heard that the abbot and King Yan are in the domain together, and they have always been good friends. Ben Hou has something unclear, so he asked the master for advice. This Quan's words spread the jade seal of the country to be hidden in the palace of King Yan, if you don't tell the truth, lest Your Majesty be guilty. If you tell the truth, King Yan can't hand over the national treasure, Your Majesty will definitely be accountable, this matter makes Ben Hou in a dilemma, and ask the master for advice. ”

Dao Yan said categorically: "Your Majesty Shengming, you will never be confused by the rumors of the Quan clan. Thinking that the jade seal of the country is a treasure of the country, how can it not be carried with it, how can it be hidden in the house. The general fished in the sea and destroyed the remnant Yuan royal court, which was a great achievement, but unfortunately he did not capture the chieftain, otherwise he would have known the whereabouts of the jade seal of the country. ”

Lan Yu said disapprovingly: "Although the chief has escaped, the remnants of the Yuan have been destroyed, this battle can repay the shame of Song Jingkang back then, and the humiliation of my Han family for a hundred years. ”

Dao Yan smiled slightly and said: "Lao Wei heard that when Jingkang was in the past, there was a Jin army general who insulted Emperor Roufu and was later killed by Emperor Jin. Don't forget the past, the teacher of the future, I hope the marquis will remember it. ”

When Lan Yu heard this, her color changed, and he sneered and said, "What can I do with a mere remnant of a stump girl?" With that, he got up and walked away.

Dao Yan looked at his back and sighed deeply.

After the Ming army arrived in Beiping Mansion, most of the people and horses returned to their own guards, and the captured 70,000 Mongolian people were handed over to the King of Yan, and Lan Yu only led more than 10,000 people from the headquarters to escort more than 2,000 people of the Northern Yuan Dynasty princes and dozens of carts of gold, silver and jewelry, and rushed to Yingtianfu, the capital division. Zhang Shixing also followed Tana south. The army traveled all the way, and everywhere it passed, the local officials were all courteous and flattering, and Lan Yu was so unhappy, so he stopped and stopped, and after more than a month, on this day, he finally came to the city of Tianfu in Beijing.

The capital city of the Ming Dynasty should be rebuilt in Tianfu from the twenty-sixth year of the Yuan Dynasty (1366 AD), to the nineteenth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1386 AD), the calendar lasted 20 years, spent a huge amount of money, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians rushed to work day and night, and finally built the largest city in the world at that time.

The north of Tianfu City is adjacent to the river, the south is adjacent to Qinhuai, the east is surrounded by Zhongshan, and the west is by the stone. Yingtianfu City is surrounded by the palace city, the imperial city, the capital city, and the Guocheng four city walls from the inside to the outside, surrounded by dozens of miles, with a population of millions and abundant people, and it is really the first prosperous place in the world.

Lan Yu led the crowd to enter the city from the north gate of the capital, Jinchuan Gate, and then turned eastward, entered the imperial city, passed through the Hongwu Gate, Chengtian Gate, and Duanmen, and came to the front of the Wumen City Tower, and held a prisoner sacrifice ceremony.

Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, wore a robe and a dragon crown, came to the noon gate in person, and the imperial tower was elevated, and the yellow cover was high. There are many knives and guns on the noon gate square, the flags are displayed, and the honor guards of the halo books are lined up in a row, until the end gate, and the civil and military officials stand on both sides. When the auspicious time came, the ceremonial officer shouted from the castle tower: "Salute! Lan Yu led a group of civil and military officials, armored soldiers, and Meng Yuan prisoners, knelt on the ground on the spot, and bowed three times and nine bows, and said: "Chen Lanyu was ordered by the Ming Emperor to levy the remnant Yuan, fortunately not dishonored, and won a complete victory, capturing 100,000 men and women, and more than 2,000 princes. Long live the Ming Emperor, long live! ”

The herald proclaimed the decree loudly on the city tower: "The Marquis of Yongchang and the general Lan Yuping destroyed the remnants of the Yuan, and their hard work is high, comparable to Wei Li, and they have entered the Duke of Liang Guogong, and the captured people are handed over to the prince for disposal." ”

Lan Yu received the edict of gratitude under the city tower, and there was a burst of drum music, the ceremony was over, Zhu Yuanzhang drove back to the palace, and all the officials came out, surrounded Lan Yu to his own house, and held a banquet to celebrate the victory. Lan Yu was so happy that she drank happily and got drunk.

The next day, Lan Yu came to the prince's mansion to meet the prince Zhu Biao and asked for instructions on what to do with the Meng Yuan captives. The crown prince Zhu Biao is about thirty years old, slightly chubby, kind eyebrows and kind eyes, a loyal elder, when he is in the country, reviewing the chapter, when he sees Lan Yu coming in, he is busy giving people a seat, and he says: "Uncle, I have worked a saddle horse all the way." (Lan Yu is Chang Yuchun's wife and brother, and Chang Yuchun is Zhu Biao's father-in-law, so it is called.) ）

Lan Yu hurriedly got up and saluted: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has every opportunity to deal with the government and politics, and it is hard work to eat and drink, so take care of your jade body." ”

Zhu Biao shook his head helplessly and said: "It's nothing if I work hard, but when I deal with state affairs, it is difficult to call it holy will, and it is distressing." ”

Lan Yu sighed and said: "Your Highness has implemented benevolent government since the beginning of the country, and all the people have praised it, and Your Majesty has praised it from time to time, where does Your Highness say this?" ”

Zhu Biao sighed and said: "I want to practice the law of leniency, when Hu Weiyong's case occurred, he once advised his father to kill less heroes, for fear of hurting the harmony of heaven and earth, and was reprimanded by his father as too benevolent." ”

Lan Yu nodded and said: "Hu Weiyong's case is indeed too widely implicated, even the prince's teacher Song Lian is also involved, if it is not for His Royal Highness the Prince's protection, I am afraid that he will not be able to avoid difficulties, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really meritorious." ”

Zhu Biao smiled bitterly, waved his hand and said: "This matter should not be mentioned again, since then, my father has been deeply dissatisfied with me, so he has the matter of pulling out thorns and thorns, and said that this is quite different from me." ”

When Lan Yu heard this, Huo Ran was shocked: "When the minister was in Beiping, I heard that King Yan once boasted that His Majesty stroked his back and said: 'This son is like me. 'Yan Wang Dragon Tiger Walk, Beiping is surrounded by mountains and seas, a place of beauty, there is a son of heaven, His Royal Highness must not be guarded against. ”

Zhu Biao said disapprovingly: "Uncle, don't talk nonsense, King Yan is very respectful to me, and we are brothers and brothers, and there is no such thing." ”

Lan Yu said emotionally: "I am the prince's closest relative, so I dare to state it, I hope that the changes in Xuanwumen will not recur." ”

Zhu Biao said: "Okay, uncle." We will not talk about it today. Let's discuss how to deal with the remnants of the captive. I look at its roster, on the blood relatives and nobles should be the children of the chieftain and Tana, I intend to be the fief of the slave as the marquis, Tana is worthy of the princess's children as wives, and the rest of the people each give money and food, live in Beijing, and Huaiyuan people, what do you think? ”

Lan Yu blurted out: "It's not proper, that Tana is uneducated, and her wild nature is difficult to get rid of, how can she marry a lover, it is better to send it to the Teaching Division." ”

Zhu Biaoqi said: "How do you know, I want to see what kind of character this little girl is?" So he ordered the Dibaonu and Tana to be summoned.

Lan Yu's face was embarrassed, and it was inconvenient to stop her, so she had to wait aside.

After a while, the guards of the East Palace brought in Di Baonu and Tana, and the two knelt down and saluted, saying, "I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Zhu Biao raised his hand and said, "No courtesy." ”

Then they stood up, their faces bowed, and they were silent.

Zhu Biao carefully looked the two up and down, and saw that the land slave was thin and small, and the appearance was obscene, but it was Natana who was generous and had the demeanor of a heroine among women, so he was secretly surprised, and said loudly: "Land slave, I will make you the Marquis of Anyuan today, give you a field house, and live in Beijing, are you willing?" ”

The land protector knelt down again and thanked him and said, "Thank you, Your Highness the Prince, for your grace." ”

Zhu Biao turned to Tana again and said, "Tana, I will marry you to the children of the princess today, and enjoy the honor, are you willing?" ”

Tana snorted, but didn't answer.

Lan Yu stepped forward and scolded: "Cheap maid, don't thank the prince Longen soon." ”

Tana glared at him for a while, then turned to Zhu Biao and said, "I don't want to get married, and I don't want any glory and wealth." I just want one thing, although you are His Royal Highness the Prince, under one person, above ten thousand, I am afraid that you will not be able to do it. ”

Zhu Biao sighed and said with a smile: "I can't pick up the stars in the sky, and the dragon in the water is also difficult to catch. ”

Tana suddenly pointed at Lan Yu and said, "I only need his head, and I will be satisfied, and then I will dispose of it as you like." ”

When Lan Yu heard this, his face changed greatly, and he was about to fight.

Seeing this, Di Baonu hurriedly grabbed his sister's sleeve and said in a low voice: "Little sister, don't talk nonsense, kneel down quickly." ”

Zhu Biaoqi said: "Why does the little girl hate Liang Guogong so much? Oh, I see. It is human nature that he destroys your country, and you have hatred in your heart. But the matter has come to this, you should know the general trend, you are still young, have a good time, it is better to let go of hatred, share Chengping, my Ming Emperor has always advocated the Han and Mongolian family, as a whole, all for my Ming people, marry you to the family of the minister, but also for you to find a good home. ”

Tana said proudly: "If my Dayuan is defeated, I will be defeated, and you can kill whatever you want." But bullying us women is worse than pigs and dogs. ”

Lan Yu snorted and said: "During the Jingkang Change, how many Han women did you Hu Lu bully us, this is the cycle of Heavenly Dao, and the world is retribution." ”

Zhu Biao waved his hand to stop him, and continued to ask Tana, "Who bullied you?" ”

When Tana heard this, tears immediately swirled in her eyes, and she pointed at Lan Yu again, choked up, and said, "It was he who bullied my mother and my aunt, causing them to commit suicide." ”

Lan Yu's face suddenly turned red, and she stepped forward and slapped Tana twice, and said, ", you dare to spew blood." ”

A trace of blood flowed from the corner of Tana's mouth, she covered her face, stared at Zhu Biao and said: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, you blow such a big cowhide, now it seems that taking his head is probably as impossible as taking the stars in the sky." ”

Zhu Biao's face turned red, waved his hand to the guards, ordered someone to take the two of them down, turned his head, his face sank like water, and said to Lan Yu: "Liang Guogong, what is the matter?" ”

Lan Yu saw that he couldn't hide it, so he arched his hand and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, it's a trivial matter, why bother." After pacifying the court of the remnant Yuan Dynasty, I saw that the concubine of the chief of the captives looked a little colored, so I ordered her to sleep, but she was bumped into by her daughter Tana, and in shame, she killed herself. As for her aunt, it was the remnant Yuan princess Quan's family, escorted to Beiping Mansion, feeling nostalgic for her life experience, touching the scene, and committing suicide. ”

Zhu Biao stomped his feet and said, "Uncle, you are so confused." My father hated others for bullying the weak and bullying women and children the most in his life, and he has always been strict in governing the army and extremely strict with the emperor, so you don't know it, if you let him know that you are so bullying the concubine, you will be punished with a capital crime. ”

Lan Yu said disappreciatively: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, don't worry. First, I have made such a meritorious service, and His Majesty also praised me for my merit compared to Wei Li (Wei Qing, Li Jing), how can he bear to cure my sins? Second, the two kings of Kaiping and Zhongshan (Chang Yuchun and Xu Da) have died, and Your Majesty must rely on me, so how can you cure my crimes? Third, I am the prince's own uncle, and after a hundred years, Your Majesty will also leave important ministers for the prince to assist, how can I cut off my arm? ”

Zhu Biao nodded when he heard this: "Uncle is reasonable, but please reflect on yourself in the future, and never do such a ridiculous thing again." ”

Lan Yu thanked him and retreated.
