Zhu Di returned to the palace, and kept pacing on the ground excitedly, with a smile on his face, and after thinking for a while, he said loudly, "Dabao, swing and go to Kunning Palace." ”

At this time, the night was already deep, the lights of Kunning Palace were extinguished, and Xu Miaoyun had already laid down, but Zhu Di's arrival woke up the entire Kunning Palace.

Xu Miaoyun came out to greet her with her clothes on, she was apprehensive, but she was a little surprised when she saw Zhu Di with a smile on her face, and welcomed Zhu Di into the room.

Zhu Di was smiling from entering the door to sitting on the chair, and after many years of husband and wife, Xu Miaoyun could see that Zhu Di was really happy.

This is strange, Zhu Di should have gone to see his eldest brother, with the temper of his eldest brother and husband, there should be no joy when the two of them meet, but they should fall out, it is difficult for his eldest brother to give in to his husband.

Zhu Di saw Xu Miaoyun's doubts, and said with a smile, "What? The queen doesn't know me? ”

Xu Miaoyun smiled and shook her head, "It's nothing, I just think this result is really unexpected by the concubine, it's a little strange that you and my eldest brother are so happy to meet." ”

Zhu Di heard Xu Miaoyun's words and nodded, "Indeed, if I had been before, I would have liked to cut off his head." But today, I'm happy. ”

"But is the eldest brother willing to submit to you?"

"Where is it so easy, he still refuses to bow to me, but he takes the initiative to ask to go to the north for the Ming Dynasty."

"Really?" Xu Miaoyun said in surprise, "Your Majesty, this is indeed worth being happy about. ”

Zhu Di sighed, his tone was very melancholy, "It's really worth being happy, he is my eldest brother after all, no matter what to do with him, I can't bear it, so I can only lock him up, but now it's okay, he finally lowered his head slightly, and take this opportunity, I have an excuse to exempt him from all punishment." ”

"Not only that, my eldest brother is stubborn," Xu Miaoyun happily leaned over to Zhu Di's side and held Zhu Di's arm, "He bowed his head to you this time, he just figured it out, but he refused to say it clearly for the sake of face, and the concubine thought that as long as it took a while, the relationship between us and the eldest brother would not be stiff." ”

Zhu Di nodded with a smile when he heard this, the Ming Dynasty was strong, the family was harmonious, and the children and grandchildren were full, so he was satisfied. "Now I'm a little worried about the reaction of the Manchu civil and military when the news is announced tomorrow, no, we still have to prepare early."

After thinking about it for a while, Zhu Di called Dabao outside the door and whispered to him, "Go quickly, the sooner the better." ”

――――

Meimei slept well, and the time of the morning dynasty came.

Zhu Di put on the dragon robe, but his heart was a little heavy, although Dabao had already reported that he had done everything he had told him, but Zhu Di was still a little worried.

Xu Miaoyun knew what Zhu Di was worried about, helped Zhu Di tidy up his clothes, and said worriedly, "Your Majesty, if the courtiers oppose it too fiercely, Your Majesty must not fall out with the courtiers because of the matter of the eldest brother." ”

Hearing this, Zhu Di smiled mysteriously, "Don't worry, it's not that I want to fall out with them." ”

Zhu Di's smile was very mysterious, Xu Miaoyun really couldn't think of the meaning of Zhu Di's smile, so she didn't ask more.

As soon as the hour came, Zhu Di stretched his waist and went to the Fengtian Hall with great dignity.

got on the dragon chair, watched the hundred officials chanting long live, and did not let Dabao shout 'Something to start, nothing to retreat from', so he said with a smile, "Everyone, I want to tell you a good thing today." ”

The hundred officials looked at each other when they heard this, it seems that His Majesty is in a good mood today, and the tense heartstrings can be put down. Yang Rong and Yang Shiqi were puzzled, there has been nothing good recently, is there anything else they don't know?

The heartstrings of the two of them did not loosen, but collapsed tighter, anyway, from all kinds of things in the past, Zhu Di said that it was good, but there was no good thing for them.

Sure enough, Zhu Di's next words are indeed not a good thing.

"Yesterday, I went to the Wei Mansion and met Xu. Huizu, after discussion, I decided to seal Xu. Huizu was the general of the expedition to the north, and immediately went north to take up his post and presided over the war in the north. ”

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar, and hundreds of officials knelt on the ground, and even most of the generals knelt down.

Zhu Di sighed in his heart when he saw that most of the ministers in the court were opposed, he had expected this result a long time ago, but Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaochu also opposed it, which was indeed a bit unexpected to him.

"Father, isn't this a bit biased? Composed. Although Huizu is an experienced general, his loyalty to his father is really very problematic. Zhu Gaochi took the lead in speaking.

Seeing that Zhu Di didn't speak, Yang Shiqi spoke, "Your Majesty, the minister knows that the war in the north has become a stalemate, and it is too difficult for me to win by defense." There are not many generals available in the court, Feng Tianbo and Chengguo Gong have official affairs, the King of Han is a prince, and his identity is not suitable, Xin Anbo has more than enough ability and lack of prestige, and veterans such as Qiu Fu are too old. ”

"However, using Xu. Huizu, please think twice, Your Majesty! After Yang Shiqi finished speaking, he leaned over and kowtowed, begging Zhu Di to think twice.

Zhu Di sighed, he knew what the ministers were worried about, it was this matter of loyalty, the general of Zhengbei had tens of thousands of elite soldiers in the north, and such a force was not at ease in anyone's hands.

"Then according to Yang Qing's opinion, who should I send?"

"This..." This question stumped Yang Shiqi, looked around at the generals, and excluded the few he just said, Zhang Wu is not good, Li Jinglong, who did not come to the court, is not good, Zhang Xin is not good, and there is really no one available after thinking about it.

Zhu Di slapped the table suddenly, "You are still hesitating, Xu. Huizu goes on the expedition, then you can pick one who can go, look at the generals of the Manchu Dynasty, who can go on the expedition?! ”

Sighing, Yang Shiqi had no choice but to say, "Your Majesty, in the opinion of the ministers, let's wait for Feng Tianbo and Chengguo Gong to come back and then consider the matter of the Northern Expedition!" If Your Majesty is really anxious, it is better to seek Feng Tianbo's opinion before making a decision. "Yang Shiqi also has no choice, His Majesty wants to let Xu. Huizu went out on the expedition, and it was not okay to oppose it clearly, and it was good to take Qijing out for a while.

Zhu Gaoxu, one of the generals, was a little anxious, so he said, "Father, the war in the north is stalemate, and if it drags on, I'm afraid there will be a big incident, please ask my father to allow his sons to go to the north!" ”

Hearing this, Zhu Di raised his hand to signal Zhu Gaoxu to calm down, and then smiled, "Aiqing is saying that as long as Feng Tianbo agrees, you will no longer object?" ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, that's what you mean?" Zhu Di raised his voice.

The hundred officials glanced at each other, and they all bowed down and said yes.

Zhu Di laughed and waved his sleeves, "Pass the iron mask!" ”

Dabao nodded, and said loudly, "Your Majesty has a will, pass on the iron-faced son!" ”

Baiguan is puzzled, who is the iron-masked boy? When Yang Shiqi heard this, he sighed, it seems that His Majesty has been prepared, and he glanced back at Yang Rong, who was also helpless, and stopped talking.

The iron-masked boy was dressed in green clothes, walked in, and saluted Zhu Di respectfully, "Grass people with iron face, knock to see my emperor!" ”
