Chapter 242: The Princess and the Pony (Subscription Requested)
After the renovation of the Ming Emperor Palace in Jinling City during this period of time, it is no longer dilapidated and barren at the beginning.
Although it is still far from being compared with the Forbidden City in Yanjing, places like the Qianqing Palace have been decorated with great beauty.
"The Queen Mother has arrived."
In the sound of congratulations, Queen Zhou wore a dragon pattern and various colors of true red sleeves, Xia Wei, red Luo long skirt, red back, wearing a double phoenix and dragon crown, and steadily walked into the Qianqing Palace.
Xiao Maozi waited in front of him with a bitter face, and Emperor Chongzhen went to the imperial camp with Wang Chengen and Lu Jiude early in the morning.
Since fleeing to Jinling in a hurry, Emperor Chongzhen has taken the military power of his subordinates extremely seriously. It is the first to send lieutenants to supervise the army, and he often wears military uniforms and goes to the imperial camp to review the sergeants.
"There's no hurry, I'll just wait here."
If Empress Zhou's face didn't show a fierce color, it would really make people think that she and the emperor were a loving couple. Xiao Maozi had heard from the people below that the queen's family relationship was not good, and now that I look at it, I am afraid that this 'bad' is still going to the emperor.
But what about him? Respectfully and respectfully.
Empress Zhou waited from Chenshi until the afternoon, and only then did Emperor Chongzhen's return to the palace sing and harmonize outside.
"Queen, this is ......"
As soon as Emperor Chongzhen saw Empress Zhou, he could feel a thick resentment rushing towards him, he was surprised, what was wrong? He didn't choose a concubine and a palace maid?
"Your Majesty, don't you have anything to say to your concubine?"
Emperor Chongzhen was even more confused, "What does the queen mean?" ”
"Naturally, it's Kunxing's marriage." Empress Zhou was furious, and her eyes were wide open. "How long will Your Majesty hide from your concubine?"
If it weren't for her father outside the palace to deliver the news, Queen Zhou would still be kept in the dark. And although she knew that her father's whistleblowing was ill-intentioned, it was the same as her heart. Let her baby daughter be married to a waiyi, or a stepson who has no inheritance, doesn't that push her daughter into the fire pit?
Emperor Chongzhen's incomprehension disappeared in an instant, and he smiled, "It turned out to be this matter." Isn't this still decided, and it is still being discussed, so it has not been preached to the public. How does the queen know? ”
"Naturally, my father told me." Empress Zhou did not hide it either. Hearing that, Emperor Chongzhen's face was immediately sparkling, this Zhou Kui ......
"I know that my father has bad intentions, he hates the Marquis of Annan, and he doesn't want to see the royal family marry Qin and Jin. But this time I want to thank him, if it weren't for his bad intentions, I would still be hiding from you, Your Majesty. ”
"You want to push Kunxing into the fire pit, is there anyone in the world who is as ruthless as you......"
Tears flowed out of Queen Zhou's eyes as she spoke, this harem woman, who can't sing and fight? That's a must-have skill.
Emperor Chongzhen had a headache. If Queen Zhou kept fighting with him with a tiger face, then he would just slap Queen Zhou down, but as soon as Queen Zhou sacrificed the trick of Tears Dafa, his attitude also softened.
"Go, bring Jiang Dejing's Shangshu." While instructing Xiao Maozi to go, he was busy pacifying Queen Zhou.
He is also Kunxing's father, how much he has loved his daughter over the years, is it true or not, the queen doesn't see it, right? How could he be so ruthless as to push Kun Xing into the fire pit.
The son of Zheng Zhilong who went out is definitely not a fire pit.
Speaking of which, Xiao Maozi came in with a book in his hand, "I don't believe you can see it in person, this is Jiang Dejing's recital." ”
The introduction of Zheng Ping's situation is very detailed.
"Even if this Zheng Ping is still good, it is too wronged daughter." Empress Zhou continued to be dissatisfied. Just one identity is a matter of people's hearts.
"Among Zheng Zhilong's sons, the best is naturally Zheng Sen. But you also said that Zheng Sen is not suitable. Now Zheng Zhilong has taken out this Zheng Ping, which is not only to make up for the debt to this son over the years, but also to marry the royal family, so that I can rest assured and the court can rest assured. ”
"You must know that the princess and the concubine are going to live in the capital after marriage, and Zheng Zhilong is taking his son as a hostage."
Emperor Chongzhen's words were very explicit, which made Queen Zhou's face a little pale.
"You are dissatisfied with Zheng Ping's bloodline, and I really have doubts in my heart. But Jiang Dejing once had a secret word with me, and this Zheng Ping should have a great creation in the future. ”
When Emperor Chongzhen thought of Jiang Dejing's words, he was a hundred satisfied in his heart, if he could do this, it would be really amazing.
At that time, the Ming Dynasty will be able to get more reinforcements, not to mention, and it will also be able to make Japan officially bow to the Ming Dynasty, which is also a merit of his unscrupulous descendants.
"What else can he do? According to my father's inquiry, the Natagawa family is very unusual. "What kind of great creation can a common man have? Empress Zhou didn't believe it.
"It's true that the Tian Chuan family has a mediocre background, but the Tian Chuan family has a good son-in-law, and Zheng Ping has a father who loves him. Zheng Zhilong has already claimed the position of a great name for his second son from the hands of the Japanese shogun. ”
What is the shogunate, what is the shogunate, and what is the daimyo, Jiang Dejing's words are very clear.
In the eyes of the couple Chongzhen and Empress Zhou, the Japanese royal family is a Zhou Tianzi who is not doing anything wrong, and the tablet in the temple has no real power. And the shogunate general is the Duke of Qi Huan of the Jiuhe princes, the king of Chuzhuang who won the Central Plains, and the daimyo is the monarch of the small country of the Spring and Autumn Period.
Empress Zhou was stunned for a moment, and immediately raised a joy, then Zheng Ping can become a big name, which is very good.
At the same time, Zheng Zhilong was dissatisfied with Japan, and the shogunate prevented his wife and children from reuniting for more than ten years, and he was bent on overthrowing the Tokugawa clan and praising his son to the position of shogun. Then he had to pull the Japanese imperial family off the horse and let his son sit on the throne of the king of Japan. "Emperor Chongzhen was very disdainful when he said the words 'Japanese imperial family'.
Don't say whether the Japanese have trespassed, just say that the royal family is so cowardly, but if he wipes his neck early, he has no shame to live in the world.
Zheng Zhilong's words wanted to get rid of the Japanese chrysanthemum family, which made Emperor Chongzhen very satisfied.
"Do you want Kunxing to stay in the capital for the rest of your life, or do you want Kunxing to be in that country for the rest of your life?" Emperor Chongzhen looked at the change in the expression on Empress Zhou's face, and knew that he had convinced her. "Kun Xing has my Ming royal blood, and she and Zheng Ping's heirs are the unshakable heirs. Isn't this better than tying her to the capital for the rest of her life? ”
The Ming royal family is naturally noble, but the princess of the Ming Dynasty is very miserable, and there are very few such a pair as Princess Yongan and Gong Yonggu.
Empress Zhou came angrily and returned happily.
After listening to Emperor Chongzhen's words, she had to admit that giving her daughter to Zheng Ping was really the best choice.
"Although Zheng Ping's reputation will not be good, you will not have a good time in the past few years after you get married. Who called your father-in-law so annoying? But ah, this man has to look at the future, and he has to look at the long term. ”
In Kunning Palace, Queen Zhou sent all the eunuchs and palace maids around her, leaving only Princess Kunxing.
The latter's face was flushed, and for a young girl, it was really impossible to talk calmly about her marriage with her mother.
"You are not too young, you should know the rules set by your ancestors. To say a disrespectful word, that's really not the way husband and wife should get along. ”
For many years, China has been a social environment in which men are superior to women, but when it comes to princesses and horses, it has become women and men are inferior. This alone is not something that everyone can adapt to.
Although every time it is time to recruit horses, there are 'good' young people from all over the country, but how many of them are really good?
is such a good young talent, no one will go to this horse master.
On the contrary, it was this Zheng Ping, no, more precisely, Tagawa Nanazaemon, who had the opportunity to jump out of the shackles of the 'Captain of the Horse' and swim in a wider world. And outside, the princess and the concubine will naturally become male and female, although this will wronged their daughters, but in the eyes of Queen Zhou, it is a better way for husband and wife to get along.
Kunxing's face was flushed, she lowered her head and didn't speak, but she was thinking about ...... person, what kind of appearance would he be, and what kind of personality would he be?
Did this union with that person fall into the fire pit or into the blessed nest?
……
Lijiazhuang Town.
The house of a large local family is now the base camp of Li Shutai.
The shouts of killing were already close at hand.
The Zheng army was besieged on all sides, and the Green Banner soldiers could not parry it at all. But Li Shutai sat steadily in the lobby and didn't move.
"Do as I tell you."
The guards around the "military gate ......" still have to persuade.
Li Shutai only closed his eyes and said nothing.
The Zheng army has already surrounded Li Gezhuang, is it easy to break through? Or changed his clothes, pretended to be a soldier, and passed the test in order to be confused, Li Shutai also felt unreliable.
He should be honestly defeated and die.
The leader of the guards clenched his fists and went down, since the master didn't plan to live, then he also let it go.
"Boom, boom—"
A loud roar silenced the sound of cannons outside and the shouts of killing inside the town. Li Shutai used the medicinal powder in his hand as a landmine, just like when Li Yan came out of Yanjing City, Wu Sangui was in the pit. In a series of huge explosions, the swarming Zheng army's offensive was suddenly frustrated.
Li Shutai didn't have much medicinal powder in his hand, so he buried the whole town. But even so, the sudden explosion still made Zheng Jun, who broke in, suffer a big loss.
Guo Guangfu's eyes were about to explode, and his men lost at least hundreds of people in the sudden explosion.
"Kill me, kill me hard-" Raising the big knife, Guo Guangfu roared angrily.
When Zheng Zhilong stepped into the town, it was dawn the next day.
Half of the town was in ruins, and more houses seemed to have collapsed than they were standing.
There were blood stains in front of the big family, and Li Shutai's Goshha was there, and the resistance of the Qing army here was still fierce.
On the bluestone steps of the fifth order, blood completely stained the steps, and the corpses were already being cleaned up, and the dark red blood was also very conspicuous in the light of the morning sun.
On the half-collapsed lobby, Zheng Zhilong saw Li Shutai, who had committed suicide with a knife, he was already dead, but the military general's uniform on his body was neat and spotless.
"Chop off his head and send it to Jinling for credit!" Although he has survived a wave, he has managed to destroy tens of thousands of enemies, and he can boast about it to the outside world.
