On the swing rack, after Zhu Menqing's officials punished him, he was still not happy. hugged Xiao Yue'er to the room and lingered for a while, and finally hugged a paralyzed body, turning the poison of Grandma Qiong Yao in her previous life into love words, and coaxed the beauty in her arms to tears, and her heart melted before she walked out of the inner courtyard.

Zhu Yousong, who was refreshed, hummed a little song and came to the reception hall, it was still early, and no one had come to the banquet yet. However, the busy royal family members are already like a group of hard-working little bees, arranging the banquet.

"Yes, good job."

When the people looked at it, they were praised by the prince, such as Feng Lunyin, and worked harder. Zhu Yousong moved a chair and sat at the door, waiting for his cronies to arrive. Zhang Yuanhua was the first to be notified that he lived near the palace, so he was the first to come.

When Lao Shutou went to inform him, it happened that Xu Erdou was pestering him to talk, and when he heard that it was a banquet for his cronies. Xu Erdou admitted that he was already a cronie among his cronies, and he followed very consciously. The two of them chirped along the way, and the other was overwhelmed, and when they came to the front of the hall, they saw Zhu Yousong with a happy face. Zhang Yuanhua was secretly surprised in his heart, the prince seemed to be in a good mood, was there anything good?

Zhu Yousong saw that the two of them came together, and asked with a smile: "Adou, why are you here, who passed the message to you?" I didn't prepare your food and drinks today, so you'll have to pay separately for a seat. ”

Xu Erdou's face collapsed, and he cried and said: "Lord Wang, your words are heartbroken, I will escort you all the way to the east and west, go to the soup and go to the fire, and work hard, there is both merit and hard work, you feast your cronies, how can I be without me Xu Erdou." ”

"Haha, you're embarrassed to say it, you're not as good as me. Speaking of which, how have you been lately, have you taken a break? ”

Zhang Yuanhua saw that he was deflated, snickered, and hurriedly said: "This kid belongs to kraft candy, it is easy to step on, and the recovery is fast, and he has long been out to harm people like no one." After speaking, he turned his head and asked, "Lord Wang, you called us here today, but what is the important matter to discuss?" ”

"Yes, you still have a good brain, and now a happy event has fallen from the sky. Your Majesty has just come down to the Holy Decree to let me recruit soldiers and horses, and the governor of Shandong and Henan provinces to suppress bandits. ”

Zhang Yuanhua and Xu Erdou glanced at each other and looked at each other, neither of them was a novice, and they both knew what this holy decree meant. Zhang Yuanhua didn't know much about the affairs of officialdom, he was just excited and happy, but Xu Erdou was different, he knew the weight of this holy decree too well, he was worried, and he stopped talking.

After a while, Liu Yi, Zhao Hong, and Zhang Hao came one after another. Zhu Yousong didn't sit down, so they had to stand outside the door and chat.

After knowing the news, everyone behaved differently and had their own ideas.

Zhao Hong was quite cautious, and his face was serious; Liu Yi's face didn't change much, in his heart, these are not things he worries about, follow the direction of his little nephew, just point where to fight, as for what is the way in it, my old Liu is too lazy to waste that brain, anyway, it can't be changed.

Zhang Hao knows Zhu Yousong's mind best, he knows that the little prince has been waiting for an opportunity, and now the opportunity has finally come, he is young and cautious, the prince is waiting for the opportunity, why am I not waiting for the opportunity, he is the most excited in the crowd, eager to try.

Ma Shiying was dressed in casual clothes, only with a scholar who had followed him since he was a child, and now his henchmen are here.

Zhu Yousong had been waiting for him, and when he saw him coming, the corners of his mouth hooked, his eyebrows raised, and he said secretly, sure enough, he didn't see the wrong person.

Zhu Yousong stood up, greeted him, and said happily: "Shiying, come on, come on, everyone is here." "Take the crowd and take a seat.

Lao Shutou saw that everyone had arrived, and the prince was elated, estimating that he must not have called the wrong person, so he secretly wiped the sweat on his forehead and secretly screamed a fluke. Turned around and ordered the people of the palace to start serving.

A pretty maid, dressed like a flower butterfly, carrying a series of delicious delicacies, eight treasures of the waterway, hired Tingting to come. Then he stood behind him and poured wine and vegetables.

Everyone has their own thoughts, but it's a pity that only Liu Yi eats such a rare dish, and everyone else eats a little.

"What are you all doing with all your hearts? Look at the uncle, they all learn from him, eat first and then talk about business. As the saying goes, the emperor is not short of hungry soldiers, and now that the emperor has given us an errand, we have to eat enough to do it again. ”

The atmosphere in the banquet eased for a while, and everyone put down their worries and ate and drank.

After three rounds of drinking, Zhu Yousong clapped his hands, and the maids bent down to withdraw from the room, and Zhu Yousong said: "A holy decree came from the capital, asking me to governor the two provinces and recruit troops to suppress bandits, which is both an opportunity and a hidden crisis for us." ”

When Ma Shiying came, he didn't know the news, and he was stunned when he heard the words, and he didn't hold the chopsticks in both hands steadily, and fell to the ground.

Everyone looked at him, Zhu Yousong chuckled lightly, and said: "Shiying, I'm not Cao Cao, you are not Liu Bei, and there is no thunder in the sky, what are you doing when you throw your chopsticks?" ”

Ma Shiying's face was slightly red, and he said: "The prince said that he laughed, Shiying was just a little surprised when he heard the news. ”

Zhu Yousong continued: "That's right, this prince can't believe that the imperial court trusts me so much. Since it was difficult for Cheng Zujing to come, no vassal king in the world has ever had this right. I don't care what their purpose is, but this decree, we must use it, what do you think? ”

Zhao Hong pondered for a while and said, "Lord Wang, even if the current saint is in Xile and acts grotesquely, does the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty agree to such a will?" ”

Zhu Yousong laughed and said, "Zhao Hong, now it is different from when we were in Jingwei, when the Chinese military minister of the dynasty could easily influence the emperor and be majestic. In today's imperial court, as long as Wei Zhongxian nods alone, no one in the Manchu Dynasty will dare to rebel. ”

Zhao Hong has been to the capital twice recently, so he thought so, nodded and said, "In that case, what scruples do you have, let go of the big fight." ”

Ma Shiying's face was gloomy, and he said: "As the saying goes, "all the birds are flying, and the good bow is hidden", I am afraid that if we exterminate the bandits, we will not be rewarded, but fearful. ”

"Shiying, don't you understand? How strong is Kaifeng, who would have dared to imagine that it would fall for hundreds of years? Troubled times are coming! If this king only cares about Mingzhe to protect himself, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not be the next king of Zhou, abandon his family and house, and flee to the capital. As long as this time, let's take advantage of the justification and develop our strength, so strong that the imperial court will not dare to provoke us easily, is our way out. ”

Nowadays, there are strong captives outside, there are chaotic people inside, there are no soldiers and no power in their hands, and life and death are pinched in the hands of others, isn't it aggrieved? ”

Liu Yi, who was full of wine and food, had just swallowed the last sip, the wine was surging, and his face was black and his ears were red. Hearing Zhu Yousong's words, he stared, smashed the wine glass, and shouted: "That's right!" Let's recruit troops and help the prince become a real vassal king who splits the territory and seals the territory! ”
