There is no way, today's Ming army's expedition to the south has finally returned to Beijing, and the people are also looking forward to this army that has been running around for so long, after all, they are back, which means that the war is over.
The high-level of the army this time, as long as the officials above the fifth grade, were all invited into the palace by Zhu Di.
At this moment, in the Nanjing Imperial Palace, a luncheon has already been prepared, and the imperial chefs in the palace have been busy as early as two days ago, after all, the people who have eaten in the palace this time are all meritorious ministers, Zhu Di specially instructed Zheng He to go and greet the imperial dining room, and instructed the imperial dining room to do a good job and do fine for this thousand people banquet.
Moreover, Zhu Di also promised to give the imperial chef in the imperial dining room, as long as the heroes are satisfied, Zhu Di is happy, and he will reward the imperial chefs with some gold and silver jewelry, after all, a lot of gold and silver were seized this time.
As the so-called Chrysostom Yuyan, the imperial chefs who got Zhu Di's promise are naturally enthusiastic and energetic, they don't care about any gold and silver, after all, they are doing errands for the masters in the palace, who cares about gold and silver?
What's the most critical? Naturally, it is possible to be rewarded by Zhu Di personally, which is an honor, and this glory is enough for them to brag about it for a lifetime, so it is good to be rewarded if there is no gold or silver.
Therefore, when Zhu Di led a large group of meritorious generals to the Jingsi Palace, a celebration banquet was already set up in the hall for thousands of people to eat together, and there were musicians playing music at the edge of the hall.
It was already close to noon, the sun was shining in the sky, and the atmosphere in the meditation hall was also warm, a group of civil and military ministers, princes and nobles sat on both sides, and there were some graceful palace maids and dancing queens dancing to the music.
"Hui Zu, I heard that you led the army deep into the hinterland of Annan this time, destroyed many Annan cities along the way, and even collected a lot of gold and silver from our Ming treasury, which is really a great achievement!"
Zhu Hu didn't know what was wrong today, he was like a little second brother in charge of reception in a restaurant, holding a wine glass in his hand, shuttling through the hall, ordering a drink for this one, or a toast with that one, and finally slipped to Xu Huizu's side, patted him on the shoulder and laughed.
At this moment, Xu Huizu had actually drunk a lot of wine, he looked at Zhu Hu with a red face, shook his head with a wry smile, and said: "His Royal Highness King Zhou said that he laughed, although my brothers under my hands are brave, but this time they have also lost some combat power, if there is no them, where can I rush and kill at will in Annan?" ”
At this time, Zhu Song didn't know where to hang over, and he was a fart. sat next to Xu Huizu, and then slapped him on the shoulder, so strong that he almost slapped the wine he drank:
"Brother Hui, as my Ming general, you must be prepared to throw your head and spill blood for my Ming Dynasty, not everyone is copper-headed and iron-armed, so we can survive from the battlefield, everything is also the arrangement of fate!"
Zhu Song's words were full of vicissitudes, but Xu Huizu sounded quite touching, he nodded, and said to Zhu Song: "Brother Song, some soldiers of your 10,000 army have also died, right?" These fallen soldiers are all heroes of our Ming Dynasty, and for these fallen soldiers......"
Jin Zhong sat beside Xu Huizu, and when he heard Xu Huizu's words, he hurriedly took over the conversation and said, "Xu Guogong, don't worry, those brothers who died in battle have been pulled back to Nanjing, but they have not reported to you." ”
Xu Huizu's position as generalissimo was only appointed when Guangxi suppressed bandits and attacked Annam, and now that the conquest army has returned to Nanjing, Xu Huizu's position as generalissimo has been withdrawn.
"When?" Xu Huizu was stunned, and immediately reflected, "I remember that when we returned to Nanjing, the corpses of those brothers had just been buried, right?" Why did you go back to Nanjing with us? ”
"Don't worry about when." Seeing Xu Huizu's stunned appearance, Zhu Song waved his hand and said, "Brother Hui, I have an immature idea. The soldiers who died in this expedition were to be taken away by their families if they were claimed by their families, and a large amount of money was paid. As for the ...... who have not been claimed"
When he said this, Zhu Song paused deliberately, and when he saw that he had attracted everyone's attention, he continued: "There is still a lot of idle land in the fief of the younger brother, and the younger brother wants to set aside a part of the land and build a manor to bury our soldiers. Look, how is that? ”
Zhu Song told Xu Huizu and Zhu Hu, he didn't expect Zhu Song to say this, originally Xu Huizu also wanted to choose a piece of land in his fiefdom and bury the soldiers who died in this battle.
Hey, it's okay now, I was directly cut off by Zhu Song, it seems that the two of them want to go together.
After being stunned for a while, Xu Huizu said: "Brother Song, there are also a lot of open spaces in my fiefdom......"
"Huizu, forget it, forget it." Zhu Hu patted Xu Huizu's shoulder and persuaded: "Brother Song's fief is in Yingtianfu, and it is convenient to worship in the fifteenth place of Qingming Festival!" So you just follow him what he says, anyway, with this kid's temperament, in the end, everything still has to listen to him, you say? ”
While saying this, Zhu Hu also aimed his eyes at Zhu Di, who was drinking with Xie Jin and others.
Xu Huizu looked at Zhu Hu's eyes, pondered in his heart, and was damn like that, so he simply said: "In this case, then the general will thank you for those brothers who died!" ”
Zhu Song lowered his head, nodded and shook his head suddenly, he thought of a brilliant idea.
This idea is unique to the current Ming Dynasty, and it is guaranteed to be shocking.
Thinking of this, Zhu Song grinned and said, "Brother Hui, don't say such things in the future." There is nothing to thank or thank, brothers for my Ming Dynasty, for my Ming people to fight hard, if there is not even a place to live after the death, doesn't it make my Ming soldiers feel cold? ”
"Brother Song, it's still you who are righteous!" Hearing Zhu Song's words, Zhu Hu, Xu Huizu and others were in awe.
"Come on, my little brother is not as noble as you say!" Zhu Song knows his own affairs, "By the way, today is a reception banquet for you, don't just talk about the little brother?" The protagonist is you, and the younger brother is not even a supporting role! Come on, let's drink and drink, today we only talk about Fengyue, regardless of state affairs! ”
"Hahaha, yes, we're annoying Brother Song." Listening to Zhu Song's meaning, it seemed that he deliberately diverted the topic, picked up the wine glass and said: "Let's drink, drink!" Brother Song, we don't have to get drunk today! ”
……
The lunch of the heroes of this great feast in the palace was eaten directly from the time of the hour to the time of the day.
A group of courtiers and those meritorious generals, all drunk, even walking crookedly, Zhu Di brothers also drank a lot of wine, originally Zhu Di wanted to leave Zhu Song and a few of them to rest in the palace, but Zhu Song, Zhu Hu and even Zhu Yang all sprinkled drunkenness, saying that they had to go back to the house.
There was no way, so Empress Xu arranged for the palace people to send these drunkards back to their respective mansions.
When Zhu Song returned to the house, it was already two o'clock, Xu Miaojin and several other ladies in the house had not slept yet, and seeing Zhu Song's drunk and unconscious appearance, the three sisters were all a little anxious.
"Husband, why did you drink so much wine?" Xu Miaojin and Song Minglin took over their own prince from Bai Fu's hands, smelling the strong smell of wine on his body, "Uncle Bai, what about Zhan Ji and Hui Xuan?" Why didn't you see them come back? ”
"Oh, yes, it's Miaomiao and Linlin, it's okay, I'm happy to be a husband today, drink a few more glasses" Zhu Song was still a little delirious, but he recognized Xu Miaojin and them, and replied intermittently: "By the way, Zhanji, Zhanji, they are not here......"
"Sister, you look at your husband, I'll arrange for someone to boil some hot water and wipe your husband's body!"
Song Minglin handed Zhu Song's other arm to Xu Wanjun, and then ran downstairs and told the little girls to prepare hot water.
"Sister, let's give my husband a bowl of sobering soup first, he smells of wine all over his body, and he is uncomfortable!"
Zhu Song is eight feet long, and if he rests in Zhu Song's previous life, he is also nearly one meter nine.
Besides, after Zhu Song came to Daming, he practiced martial arts all the year round, and his body was strong and powerful, and he was weak after drinking wine at the moment, it can be said that the whole person was on Xu Miaojin's two sisters, both sisters had small arms and thin legs, and as far as Zhu Song's weight was concerned, these two sisters were almost overwhelmed by Zhu Song's body.
The two sisters here tried their best to support Zhu Song's body and drag him into the house.
It was easy to move Zhu Song to the bed, and after Xu Miaojin fed Zhu Song a bowl of sobering soup, Zhu Song finally sobered up briefly, and it was confirmed that taking advantage of this sober opportunity, Xu Miaojin and the two sisters coaxed Zhu Song to take off his hand. I took off my coat, and at the end of the day, I wanted to put on a pair of pajamas and lie down and sleep.
"Husband, don't be in a hurry to get dressed first, or scrub your body before resting?" Xu Miaojin hurriedly grabbed Zhu Song, "You just drank wine, if you don't sweat, your body will be uncomfortable tomorrow." ”
"Oh, oh, yes, is that so?" Zhu Song's upper and lower eyelids are about to fight again, "Then so be it......"
"Sister Miaomiao, the hot water has been prepared, and the husband has taken off ......" At this time, Song Minglin came back.
"Linlin, come over and help too! Sister Jun and I can't move our husband, and it's still some distance from the bathroom. Seeing that Zhu Song was about to fall asleep again, Xu Miaojin hurriedly beckoned Song Minglin to come over to help.
In this three-story small building built by Zhu Song, naturally there is a bathroom, but there is still a distance from Zhu Song's master bedroom, so the three daughters can only help Zhu Song to the bathroom.
Before they had time to scrub Zhu Song's body, the three of them were sweating.
Hey, anyway, this time I scrubbed my body, Zhu Song was comfortable, but the third girl was tired enough!
……
The moon was in the sky, and there was nothing to say all night.
Zhu Song slept so comfortably this night, opened his eyes and touched his side, but he was empty.
'Squeak' made a soft sound, the door was opened from the outside, and Xu Miaojin, Xu Wanjun and Song Minglin, who had already been freshened up, walked in with a tray each, with Yingxiang. Xiangxiang two little girls.
Seeing that Zhu Song had already sat up, Xu Miaojin smiled gently and said, "Husband, are you awake?" Sister concubine, hot water and porridge have been prepared for you, you wipe your body first and warm your stomach! ”
"Oh, Miaomiao, you have a heart. By the way, what time is it? Zhu Song shook his head, feeling still a little confused, "Hey, how did I come back yesterday?" Why can't you think of anything for your husband? ”
"Hee-hee, husband, you were as drunk as a cat yesterday!" Song Minglin winked at Zhu Song mischievously and said, "As for the hour?" It's just dawn, husband, do you have anything else to do today? ”
Zhu Song got up, and under the service of Yingxiang and Xiao Xiangxiang, he finished washing, put on his clothes, and said:
"Well, there are still some things that need to be discussed with the four emperor brothers in the palace, I really drank too much yesterday, and some things still have to be mentioned to the four emperor brothers in advance, so as not to forget about it for the husband when the time comes!"
"Hehe, husband, do you know that sometimes drinking can make mistakes?" Xu Wanjun laughed.
Zhu Song scratched his forehead and said angrily: "Xiao Nizi, haven't you been punished in the past few days, and you have escaped again?" Do you want to teach you a good lesson for your husband tonight, so that you know what family law is? ”
"Husband, you, you're necrotic!" The family law in Zhu Song's words is unknown to others, but Zhu Song naturally knows.
"Is this necrotic?" Zhu Song grinned, "Okay, don't make trouble, go and order someone to prepare the horse!" ”
"Husband, you better go later, there are some things that you need to confirm."
Xu Miaojin did not let Zhu Song leave, but said: "A few days ago, someone from the Ministry of Industry came and said that the Han Wangfu outside Nanjing City had been built and could be opened and moved in at any time. It's just that...... It's just that a little thing happened in between. ”
"Oh?" Zhu Song glanced at Xu Miaojin with some surprise and said, "What happened?" ”
"The Han Wangfu was built outside the city of Nanjing, and a street was formed outside the palace, and on both sides of the street, some merchants from several surrounding prefectures and counties, and even the nobles in the city of Nanjing, wanted to open shops in the street." Zhu Song said as he reached out and took a long roll of rice paper from Yingxiang's hand.
Zhu Song took the long roll of rice paper and said, "There is also a street built outside our palace?" Aren't there people living there? Besides, to build a shop on the street, it should also be discussed with the local county magistrate, why don't they dare to build a shop on the street? ”
