Chapter 850: The Son of Heaven's grace is powerful, and his elbows and armpits are changed
Daning Acropolis.
In the last years of Yongle, the ancient city of Daning gradually began to be repaired, and after several years, the city that had been dilapidated at the beginning has now re-established itself in the northeast of the Ming Dynasty. This time, the Son of Heaven personally led a large army to patrol the border, and the three guards and horses of Duoyan, who were originally a small group of nuisances in the south, naturally retreated, coupled with the successive battles of the Warat Tatars, the victors were busy digesting the fruits of victory, and the losers had to retreat to the colder north, in order to find a good place to hide and lick their wounds.
Zhu Zhanji has been personally taught by Zhu Di since he was a child, practicing literature and martial arts, and he is also an ambitious person who hopes to expand the territory in his bones. At this moment, sitting on the high platform of the big school field with wind on all sides, watching the brave athletes in the army compete in the equestrian art of shooting skills, knives, guns and sticks, although he couldn't help but tighten the thick mink fur on his body, and his face was also stinged by the cold wind like a knife, but his eyes were still full of excitement. Wang Jin, who was standing on the side, saw that a little eunuch had sent a hand stove over, and hurriedly waved his hand at him.
The Son of Heaven patrolled the border this time, just to show off his strength to those Mongols, and he had just shot three arrows in person, how could he put on a cowardly posture now, and it was not a joke to spread it?
Sure enough, seeing that the sharp pawns in the Daning Three Guards and the warriors of Wuliangha competed in archery, and they did not fall behind at all, Zhu Zhanji couldn't help but be very excited. first praised everyone's martial arts, and then said loudly: "I am very happy that there will be so many heroic warriors fighting in this year's Daning Festival. In the future, I will patrol the border once every three years, hoping that Zhuqing's martial arts will be more sophisticated! The two athletes who are at the top of the list today are hereditary thousands of households! ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone below was stunned. After all, he only said that he would give silver money and wine, and he did not mention this stubble. However, in an instant, people reacted all at once, and the Daning Zhongwei sergeant in his early thirties was even more excited and his face flushed, as was the Mongolian man next to him.
One is an ordinary soldier who has not even been a small banner, and has been pressed by his boss to prevent promotion, if it were not for the fact that the big competition was personally supervised by the British public Zhang Fu, and everyone could participate in the election, he would not even be qualified to participate; The other is the slave of Hara Hasun, the leader of Duoyanwei, who participated in the big competition just to fight for face for his master, but he didn't expect to ascend to the sky in one step. When the two stepped forward to thank them again, they couldn't help but burst into tears.
"From now on, every time the military athletes and Uliangha warriors who are at the top of the list are compared, this example will be compared!"
The words of the golden mouth that the Son of Heaven spit out again quickly aroused even higher cheers, and for a while, the sound of long live long live long live swept through the Acropolis of Daning like a mountain and a tsunami, causing a wave of frenzy in this cold winter that could freeze people to death. Even if the martial arts are not perfect, the old and weak who may not be able to get this opportunity for eternity may not be able to survive forever, and they are trembling with excitement under the emotional infection of others, not to mention that they are only a healthy young man who is not good luck if he is proficient in martial arts.
The prince of the three guards of Uliangha, who was invited to come, or had to come, was not so happy. It's just that the three guards are weak and can only survive in the cracks. The Arutai Taishi is powerful, so they can only form a line with the Arutai Taishi, report information for him to spy on intelligence, and even cooperate with the Tatar army to fight with the Ming Dynasty; Now that the Ming army is strong and the Son of Heaven is ambitious, this is a naked grace, can they still not accept it?
Since the last defeat to the Ming Dynasty, Duo Yanwei was the most injured, the leader Hal Wu was angry and anxious and seriously ill, he died a few days after the Ming army retreated, the ministry fought for power, and his son Hara Hasun did not hum and pulled together a few important people, and he broke out and seized the power of the tribe after driving away the two uncles. Then he was the first to receive the golden seal awarded by the Ming Dynasty because of his deference to the tribute. So, with the backer of the Ming Dynasty, although Duo Yan Wei is now at the bottom of the three departments, Fu Yuwei's An Out and Tai Ning Wei's Dehuo Chi are not too good to beat Duo Yan Wei's idea.
Dabi was settled, and the leaders of the three guards gathered together on the last night before leaving the Acropolis of Daning. Outside, their guards were roasting sheep, and the three leaders inside were each with a bowl of mare's milk wine, with different faces. Two years ago, he accepted the Horqin tribe who came to defect, and the leader of Fuyuwei, who suddenly jumped to the top of the three guards, took a sip of mare's milk wine, glanced at Hara Hasun, and said with a smile: "Duoyanwei's slave has suddenly become a thousand households of the great tomorrow, and your Abba, who has already gone to heaven, knows if he will be happy or angry." ”
Anzu and Dehuochi are both from their father's generation, and they used to fight constantly, and then if it weren't for Hara Hasun's quick movements, Duo Yanwei would almost become a vassal of Fu Yuwei, so in the face of this stinging words, although Hara Hasun was angry, he didn't show it on his face, he just bowed his head and said: "If Abba is still there, he will only regret that he shouldn't have listened to the bewitchment of Master Arutai." ”
He raised his neck and poured all the mare's milk wine into his mouth, remembering that this time he didn't have long eyes and directly hit the small tribe on the muzzle of the big tomorrow, he originally promised to submit to himself, but in the end, he let Duo Yanwei pick up a ready-made bargain, and he was extremely angry in his heart. The reconstruction of the Daning Acropolis undoubtedly re-nailed a nail to their top door, but the Ming army was so powerful that their three guards alone could not resist it no matter what. He had sent someone to contact the Dehuan of Warat, but Dehuan wanted his complete submission!
Whether it's Da Ming or Wara, they're all wolves!
"Don't mention these frustrating words, it's annoying to hear!" He threw the wine bowl on the table heavily, and then asked, "To get down to business, this time the great tomorrow finally agreed to continue the mutual market, and our horse felt blankets finally have a place to sell, and we can get good things from the Central Plains." However, when the Tatars and Warat heard the news, they must come over and get a piece of the pie, and they must come up with an idea as soon as possible. ”
Although Hara Hasun is young and has two fathers in front of him, he has no intention of hiding his clumsiness: "Don't think about it over there, the Arutai Taishi lost Helin, lost Hulan and lost temperature, and now he has even lost a few places further east, and this kind of cold weather even has to flee north, how much will his cattle and horse population lose?" As for the side of Warat...... But it can't just be perfunctory, and the king of Xianyi and the king of Shunyi can't be left behind. As long as those two sides hold him back, we can go west......"
After a pause, Hara Hasun said word by word: "Eat the territory of Arutai!" ”
Although he had known that the Duoyan Department had mentioned this matter to the Ming Imperial Court, at this time, seeing that Hara Hasun had spoken out unabashedly, An Zhu and Dehuo Chi glanced at each other, and they were finally satisfied. Duoyanbu's strength is now greatly damaged, at least he doesn't have the ability to eat alone. As for Arutai and their three guards, they are still sons and daughters...... Wealth lives and dies at the moment, who cares about this!
"Okay, when we go back, we will meet in Duoyan Mountain!"
Duoyan Sanwei was discussing the annexation of Arutai's territory in this compartment, and the other compartment returned to the burning kang room from the ice and snow, Zhu Zhanji took a long breath, and then took the hand stove handed over by Wang Jin on the side. When he followed Zhu Di to the north, it was not that he had never seen the cold in the north, but after all, he was still young at that time, and his body was full of fire, and he had just been holding up in front of people, so he was a little unbearable at this time. When he sat down on the kang in the middle, he had no strength to take off the big coat, but Wang Jin personally served and untied the tie, bent down to take off the thick cowhide boots, and ordered someone to pour water.
After rubbing his feet with warm water first, then scalding them twice with hot water, and drinking a bowl of old ginseng soup, Zhu Zhanji finally relieved himself, and then sighed and said: "Sure enough, I have been in the palace for a long time, and this person is lazy. ”
"The emperor compared it to the past again, why did the emperor have to work hard in the world back then?"
Wang Jin replied with a smile, and stepped forward to knead the back of Zhu Zhanji's shoulders, and when he saw that he took the stack of pieces on the kang table, he put away the other comforts on his lips, and only concentrated on his own business. After a while, he keenly noticed that Zhu Zhanji, who was annoyed and upset when he saw the inscriptions coming these days, seemed to be quite happy.
"Your Majesty, is there a happy event?"
"Concubine Wu is pregnant." Zhu Zhanji smiled slightly, and handed the chapter to the side, so that Wang Jin could see it, "Now, those guys who talk cool things behind their backs can also stop for a while." I don't believe in fate, I'm young and in good health, so I have any difficulties in my heirs...... Zhang Yue is weaker than me, and he already has a lot of children at home! ”
"Don't be too happy with the emperor, this is also troublesome, in a few years, the palace will be full of princes and princesses, and when the emperor is 100 years old, there will be a bunch of grandchildren and great-grandchildren, maybe the emperor will not recognize it!"
Concubine Wu is not outstanding among the concubines, Zhu Zhanji is not happy that she is pregnant, but happy that in addition to Sun Guifei, someone finally added a happy omen, so that the queen mother can no longer talk about him not enough rain and dew, and the ministers will not show a bitter posture. Of course, it's always good to have more children on your knees.
Therefore, when Wang Jin said this solemnly with a frown, Zhu Zhanji couldn't help laughing, pointing at the most trusted eunuch and scolding: "You dare to ridicule me!" Okay, well, your adopted son is there, and I will give you two more people to be his wife when I go back, so that you can enjoy the fun of your children and grandchildren in the future. ”
"Emperor Xie, but the children and grandchildren of the younger future are not the emperor's courtiers?"
The master and slave laughed for a while, and someone outside reported that the British public Zhang Fu asked to see him. Zhu Zhanji immediately put away his smile, and no longer leaned on the back of the kang chair, but sat up straight. After Zhang Fu came in and saluted, he instructed Wang Jin to move a chair over and invite someone to sit down, and then said with a straight face: "Now that everything is done, the matter of returning to Beijing will be handed over to the British public to arrange, if there is anything to discuss with the two bachelors of King & Wood Mallesons." Xue Lu, Marquis of Yangwu, has been in Daning for many years, and it is time to change people. If there is a candidate, you may as well put it forward, and I can go to the cabinet to discuss it. ”
Zhang Fu toured with Hu Bei, and the opportunity to see the emperor on weekdays was no less than that of the cabinet, but he was always very cautious and did not speak easily. At this moment, the emperor asked about such a personnel appointment, but he was a little hesitant. This is not a candidate who can turn over the bag, the town guard has always used Xungui since the Yongle period, but now the first generation of Xungui is almost no more, and there are more than the second and even third generations. Although Xue Lu, the Marquis of Yangwu, had to be sealed late, after all, he had personally experienced the battle, and if a place like Daning was not enough to change those martial tactics, how could he deal with it?
"In the opinion of the ministers, after the Marquis of Anyuan returns to Beijing, the Marquis of Anyuan will be replaced to guard Kaiping, and the Marquis of Wu'an will be guarded by Daning."
"Wu Anhou? Wu Anhou is old after all. "When Jing Nan rewarded his merits, Zheng Heng was the youngest one except for Zhang Fu and other heroes, but now he is also the age when his beard is white, so Zhu Zhanji couldn't help frowning. However, after carefully combing through the nobles in the court one by one, he actually found that the top ones had already been sent, and finally had to nod slightly, "Okay, let's discuss this matter again." Wu Anhou has been out for many years, and it stands to reason that he should return to Beijing to recuperate, and even An Yuanhou has just fought in Jiaoluan. ”
It is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, Zhang Fu can only be silent at this time, and when he is out, he can't help but sigh deeply. Now that he has dismissed the governor of the Chinese army, he can't leave the capital except for this kind of work now, and in addition to Ningyang Marquis Chen Mao, Wu'an Marquis Zheng Heng, Anyuan Marquis Liu Sheng, Yangwu Marquis Xue Lu, who else can there be? I heard that Zhang Yue strongly advised the establishment of martial arts before, and now it seems that this is really necessary, otherwise so many military ministers will not be able to pick out the general!
All the way back to his house, as soon as he arrived at the door, a general greeted him and said in a low voice: "Master, Mrs. Jingcheng sent someone to deliver an urgent letter." ”
Zhang Fu stopped, took the letter and entered the house. Unfolded and hurriedly swept away, he threw the letter into the brazier with a blank face, and only then did he stretch out his finger and rub his brow as he saw the paper turn into ashes in the brazier. Now that the Son of Heaven is no longer married to Xungui, he himself has no such plans, and it is better for his daughter to marry into the right family as a housewife than to send her to the palace as a concubine. However, some family affairs can be allowed, and some family affairs cannot be allowed. It's just that Zhang Yue's letter last time also specifically mentioned the Guo family of Wuding Hou, this family is just delusional to cling, or do they have any other plans?
Just as he left the matter behind and was about to summon several other nobles and nobles who accompanied him to discuss the matter of returning to Beijing, there was a sudden commotion outside. Immediately after, a general rushed in.
"Sir, sir! Oh no, flagpole, the flagpole in the city suddenly fell! ”
