When the news was sent into the palace, Lao Zhu was taking a nap, and it was impossible not to sleep for a while at noon on this hot day. Hearing that there was good news from the grassland, he also frowned suspiciously. A few days ago, the news came that Li Wenzhong had successfully raided Shangdu, what other good news could there be? Did he defeat Yesu or did Nahachu surrender?

He inspected the fire paint, and hurriedly opened the report documents, which were all groups of dense numbers, and he was even more puzzled in his heart, because the general report documents would not be written in secret letters, and the world would know if he won the battle, even if he was robbed, it didn't matter.

He found a set of numbers and ordered, "Yuansheng go and bring the sixteenth book at the top of the shelf!" ”

Yuan Sheng quickly took a book from the bookshelf and came back, it was a volume of "Zizhi Tongjian", Lao Zhu opened the book, and searched for it one by one according to the numbers on the report.

The translated words are all time and place, and at a glance, you can know that it was written by Ma Du, that is, only his recitals will be so clear and direct, and everyone else's is to say irrelevant nonsense before talking about business, even a reckless man like Chang Yuchun is not exempt from vulgarity.

When he translated "capture the enemy chieftain", his brows jumped, who? Emperor Zhizheng? Who else but him is worthy of being called the enemy chief? He continued to translate, and sure enough, as he expected, the "enemy chieftain" mentioned earlier referred to the Emperor Zhizheng!

Lao Zhu's expression became very strange, as if he had eaten a sour grape, he reached out and patted the table, "Damn, didn't you run away!" ”

Don't blame Lao Zhu for being angry, Ma Du and Li Wenzhong didn't catch Emperor Zhizheng at the beginning, so he left a little leeway for himself, and did not mention the possibility that Emperor Zhizheng might hide in the herdsman's house in the previous report, so as not to be embarrassed if he couldn't catch it in the future, so he only vaguely said that he ran away.

Now that Emperor Zhizheng has run away, he was suddenly captured, so that Lao Zhu was not prepared at all, capturing the enemy chief was just icing on the cake for him, but it was very troublesome to deal with.

In his inscription on his enthronement, it was written, "But I am the king of the Chinese people, since the end of the Song Dynasty." The emperor ordered the real person to enter China as the lord of the world, and his father and son and grandson have more than 100 years, and this fortune is also over. ”

He admits Meng Yuan's orthodoxy, not that he has any good feelings for Meng Yuan, on the contrary, he hates it to the bone, and what he does is only his Zhu family. Lao Zhu's logic is like this, my Lao Zhu has a bad background, he has let go of cattle and farmed the land, and he has been a monk to beg for food, but no matter how bad my Lao Zhu's background is, he is also an authentic Han family and Miao descendant, and the barbarians of different races can be orthodox, why can't I Lao Zhu.

Now that the emperor, whom he called the orthodox dynasty, has become his captive, what should he do? Cut, scrapped? Obviously, I just said that people are orthodox, isn't this a slap in the face? Put it on the table? Then it is even more impossible, there are no two heavens and no two lords in the country, even if it is an emperor with an empty title.

How to deal with it is not really a problem, the biggest problem is that he has to find a strong reason. Forty-year-old Lao Zhu is still a normal person in the end, if another twenty years pass, a reason to kill is just a matter of moving up and down.

Lao Zhu wanted to slap his mouth, he knew that he could catch the Tartar Emperor, so he didn't talk nonsense in the Heavenly Sacrifice Text. He also wanted to smoke the mouths of Chang Yuchun, his brother-in-law and his good nephew, patronizing his own meritorious service but causing trouble for his old Zhu.

Just as he was thinking about it, he saw a shadow reflected on the table, and he slowly looked up, only to see Ma Dajia standing in front of the table with a tea tray. He said with a smile: "This noon is like a fire, the queen asked the palace maid to send it, why bother to run again." As he spoke, he picked up the rock sugar mung bean soup in the tea tray and drank it in a big gulp.

Ma Dajia said: "The concubine heard that there is good news on the grassland again, and I want to see if there is any news of Bao'er and my brother, so I can inform my sister-in-law and brother and sister when I go back, so that they can feel at ease." ”

Lao Zhu scraped the mung beans at the bottom of the bowl into his mouth and chewed his mouth full of foam, "Yes!" How not! The two of them have made a great achievement! As he spoke, he handed the translated document to Ma Dajia.

Ma Dajia quickly looked at the report documents, and the husband and wife for many years knew what he was thinking when they saw Lao Zhu's uncertain look, "Your Majesty is too worried, and the concubine thinks that there is nothing difficult to do in this matter." ”

"There's always something to say!"

Ma Dajia groaned, "Yuan is out of his way, the mandate of heaven is not in Yuan, today's emperor is the son of saint tomorrow, thunder, rain and dew are all Jun's grace, even if the Tartar Emperor is punished in the Ming canon!" ”

Lao Zhu looked stunned, patted his head and immediately laughed, "That's right!" The destiny of heaven is not in him, and I am the true son of heaven who carries the heavenly ship! I'm in the game, and I'm not as good as the queen to see through! ”

Ma Dajia wiped the bean foam on the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief, "Your Majesty has just woken up, and your mind is not clear, otherwise why do you need to be reminded by the concubine." Today, the people of Qixi Festival are gathering in the city, and if the emperor reports to the people, they should be overjoyed, and they will congratulate the emperor. ”

"Really?" Lao Zhu was full of suspicions, he was always worried that someone would have Meng Yuan in his heart soon after the founding of the country, and in fact, there were indeed many old and young people who were Meng Yuan.

"The people of the world have suffered from the harsh government of Meng Yuan, the emperor saved the people from fire and water, and the people are naturally oriented towards me!"

"That's what the queen said! I'm really sleepy! He immediately asked Yuansheng to send an order to the palace guards to spread the news to the whole city. After Yuansheng came back, he brought another secret letter.

He opened it and looked at it, and handed it to Ma Dajia with a smile, "I didn't expect Xuanzhong to be a person who is not greedy for merit!" ”

Ma Dajia looked at the mark on it, and knew that it was handed by the inspector, she looked at it carefully, and said with a faint smile: "He is still young, so don't take the credit for such an eye-piercing achievement." ”

Suddenly, there was a noisy sound outside the palace, the sound was very chaotic and far away, and he couldn't hear it very clearly, Lao Zhu's brows couldn't help frowning, and he was about to let people see what was going on, when the guards in the palace came to report, saying that the people heard that the Tartar Emperor had been captured and gathered outside the palace to congratulate.

That's right! It's the people who are congratulating! The voice became more and more uniform, and it became clearer and clearer, even if he was in the inner palace, he could hear it clearly.

"Hooray! Banzai! ……”

The great momentum spread like a storm in the city, quickly blowing through the streets, markets, streets and alleys, and all the people faced the palace and shouted loudly. More than 200 years since the Jingkang Rebellion, the countless shames and sufferings borne by the Han people seem to be vented at this moment!

Lao Zhu stood up excitedly and walked quickly to the outside of the palace, trying his best to listen to the tsunami from outside the palace, his face was flushed with enjoyment, he was tired of dealing with tedious military and political affairs every day since he ascended the throne, and it was the first time he felt the pleasure of being an emperor, no, it was the climax!
