Five cities from the Northern Yuan Dynasty were pocketed by the Ming Dynasty, the Ming army did not have the intention of chasing deeply, and then went deeper, it was the hinterland of the Northern Yuan, the real core of the Northern Yuan, the historical accumulation of the Mongols for thousands of years was all in that area, and it was definitely not a rigorous decision to break into someone's nest.

Five cities are not much for Xu Da, but it is better to snatch a piece of meat from the hands of the Northern Yuan, in the early years, he did not take much advantage from the hands of Nai Er Buhua, Nai Er Buhua can be said to rely on Xu Da to become famous, it is Xu Da's old enemy, but even the old enemy in front of him can not withstand the will of the other party's khan, so he had to give up the defense and give up the city.

"These five cities will be included in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and the land of my Ming Dynasty has expanded again!" Xu Da couldn't help but marvel that the Northeast garrison's exploits in winning five cities without spending a single soldier were unprecedented, even if they were placed in other armies.

Ma Sanbao didn't speak, he was thinking, judging from the current situation, it was no longer the Ming Dynasty recorded in the historical classics, and the current timeline was confused, and there was a war that should not have appeared, just like the time paradox he had heard of in the past.

"Back to Beiping City, I will treat you well!" Xu Da thought that he needed to stay in the northeast for several years, just like the previous wars, but he didn't expect that in just a few days, the Mongolian khan would give up the land, and before Zhu Di and Ma Sanbao could fight with Nai'er, the other party retreated with the Mongolian army.

"Then there is General Lao." Zhu Di interjected, he will soon leave the station and return to Beiping, which is also a good thing for this chic and accustomed prince, in the Northeast garrison, he endures the cold every day, and is a little unaccustomed, it is better to enjoy the warmth of the charcoal fire and the service of the maid in Beiping, although he is good at war, but this battle did not meet his wishes, did not satisfy his love for war, it is better to return to Beiping to sort out, and experience a more interesting war after a while.

Xu Da and Zhu Di talked Ma Sanbao did not participate, he was thinking about whether his future should be re-planned, he could not be Zheng He's day at all, he was called Zheng He in this life, but he could do some actions that Zheng He could not do in that period, and he even had an urge to go back to the past to be Zheng He.

.................................

In the city of Nanjing, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled happily and took five cities without much effort, even the Ming Emperor could not maintain the seriousness of the past, the five cities in the northeast region are the border core cities of Mongolia, and the border cities are handed over, as long as time passes, Mongolia has almost no way to snatch back these five cities from the hands of the Ming Dynasty, these five cities, as the Ming Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang has coveted for a long time.

"Your Majesty, if Na'er doesn't spend money and retreat to the Northern Yuan, can the bet between Your Majesty and Ma Wenhe be invalidated?" Wang Gonggong said tentatively, he still remembered the child who dared to bet with Zhu Yuanzhang in the main hall, this young child gambled with Zhu Yuanzhang in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, and it was impossible for anyone to make a bet in front of His Majesty Zhu Yuanzhang.

"It's not that there is no chance to retreat to the Northern Yuan, let's wait and see, I won't embarrass him." Zhu Yuanzhang opened his mouth and said, facing Ma Sanbao, Zhu Yuanzhang loved it very much, he still owed Ma Sanbao a wish, this wish is much grander than the previous wish to protect his innocence, so far Ma Sanbao has not put forward that wish, but it is enough to witness Zhu Yuanzhang's attention to Ma Sanbao.

Zhu Yuanzhang did not make it clear, and the prince did not ask, he is now a little worried that His Royal Highness and Ma Sanbao will not be able to complete the original bet when it expires, especially His Royal Highness, this is a big gamble, if His Royal Highness loses, he needs to stay in the domain and don't know when he will be able to come out, at present, His Royal Highness is one of the most competitive princes on the throne, except for Zhu Biao, who is the crown prince, is Zhu Di's appetite for the most suitable officials of the imperial court, and the prince still does not want to see a prince who has the opportunity to become the future emperor stay in his own domain.

In the city of Nanjing, Shang Hui, who was the former imperial historian, couldn't help but be complacent when he heard the news, he admired his unique vision, he also valued Ma Sanbao, and did not hesitate to marry his daughter to the other party, but I don't know if Ma Sanbao opened the letter that his daughter sent to Ma Sanbao, although Shang Hui's daughter was a little naughty, but it will be impossible to say in a few years.

Hundreds of civil and military officials are admiring the battle of the Northeast Theater, compared with the efficiency of other theaters, the efficiency of the Northeast Theater has improved a lot since the arrival of the Fourth Highness Zhu Di and Ma Sanbao, but unfortunately they don't know the status of the war, these five cities are completely given to Daming by the Northern Yuan Khan, and they have nothing to do with Zhu Di and Ma Sanbao.

.....................................

Five days passed, and in Beiping City, the Beiping prefect, who heard about the progress of the war, was about to run away, and Zhu Di's men and horses were already blocked outside the Beiping prefect's mansion.

The corruption and bribery of the Beiping prefect is well known throughout Beiping City, but the Beiping prefect relied on the previous three chapters of the law with Zhu Di, thinking that Zhu Di would not move himself at all.

"Lord Prefect, I haven't seen you for a long time, don't come to harm, where are you going so impatiently?" Without waiting for Zhu Di to speak, Ma Sanbao looked at the Beiping prefect with a hippie smile, the Beiping prefect has been planning to resign and run away since Zhu Di and Ma Sanbao returned to Beiping, Ma Sanbao's hand is the resignation of the Beiping prefect that is about to be submitted to the imperial court, the bright red official seal is falling on the resignation letter, as the supervision of the imperial history, he intercepted the resignation of the Beiping prefect and found the Beiping prefect.

This Beiping prefect took a lot of kickbacks from his and Zhu Di's treasury, and naturally it was impossible for the Beiping prefect to leave Beiping City freely, and they were planning to spit out the capital and interest that the Beiping prefect had swallowed.

"Fourth Highness, didn't we say it before? If you don't meddle in any of the affairs of our bureaucracy in Peiping, can you still go back on your word? At the beginning, there were colleagues who could prove it! The prefect of Beiping said hesitantly, he understood that the purpose of the Fourth Highness Zhu Di and Ma Sanbao coming to his mansion must be to find the previous account to calculate, but he has the confidence, it is precisely because of that title deed that he can support him to take a lot of silver taels from Zhu Di's hands.

Zhu Di did not speak, but looked at Ma Sanbao, he Zhu Di promised the prefect of Beiping, because of this, he would not mix anything about the previous deception of his silver two, but Ma Sanbao is different, Ma Sanbao did not agree, besides, although Ma Sanbao's official position is not big, but the supervision of the imperial history has the ability to supervise hundreds of officials, don't look at the official position of the head of the imperial history is not as good as the prefect of Beiping, but he has the right to supervise and search his mansion, this is the privilege of supervising the imperial history.

"Your Excellency, Your Highness will not participate, but I didn't say I wouldn't, so let's do it, I won't embarrass you, are you willing to disclose your assets and let me investigate them thoroughly? If you think that you are a frank person, I will naturally not embarrass the prefect for you, and I believe that I should not find out what I think from the prefect, right? Ma Sanbao said with a smile, a harmless smile of humans and animals was not so in the eyes of the prefect, he looked at Ma Sanbao in horror, he didn't dare to let anyone look at his account book, not even a colleague, his account book was hidden a lot of shocking secrets.

"Lord Prefect, why don't you speak? If there is no doubt, I will send someone in and search. Ma Sanbao said, he held the supervision letter of the imperial history in his hand, and it was stamped with the official seal, which belonged to his own seal, and Zhu Yuanzhang specially approved it, after all, it was used to supervise Shang Wei before, and now it is used on the body of a Beiping prefect.

The prefect of Beiping turned pale, his pale beard fluttering in the wind with his trembling body, and he couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the snow-covered mansion stupidly.

"Check it out, I won't refute anything, I didn't even count that there was still your stubble, I already knew that you Ma Wenhe was supervising the imperial history, and I only cared about the four highnesses, and forgot to tie you up." The prefect of Beiping said helplessly, his eyes were like ashes, he understood that as long as he allowed the inspection, his handle would definitely be caught by Ma Sanbao, in Daming, corruption is a capital crime, his life can be said to have fallen into the hands of Ma Sanbao, he did not expect Zhu Di and Ma Sanbao to return from the border so quickly, he has not done a good job of asset transfer, he has planted a heel, he once imagined that he was in the suburbs of the courtyard with his family of old and young people to live in it, never thought that he was greeted by the search of the imperial history.

Under the greeting of Ma Sanbao, three officers and soldiers broke into the mansion of the Beiping prefect, the Beiping prefect looked back at the officers and soldiers who broke into the courtyard, he understood that the stolen money he had prepared for many years was about to be made public, but he was still lucky, after all, except for the part of the stolen money from Zhu Di in the mansion, the other stolen money was hidden by him, if there was only Zhu Di's silver taels, maybe they had no way to prove that these silver taels came from the fourth prince Zhu Di.

"Report to the Inspector Yushi, we have found a box of silver taels, the silver taels are a bit heavy, and they need to be checked by the adults themselves." Not long after the officers and soldiers entered the mansion, they found a box of silver taels in the room where the prefect of Beiping often worked.

"The prefect is very interested, he likes to put silver taels in the office, where did this come from? With your money, you shouldn't be able to take out so many silver taels, could this be the silver taels deducted from me? Zhu Di stared at the box containing the silver taels and questioned the Beiping prefect, who quickly shook his head and flatly denied that the silver taels came from Zhu Di's hands.

"Come on, get the evidence!" Ma Sanbao smiled and greeted the officers and soldiers around him.
