(Thank you for being very dissatisfied with yourself, WKD voted for the precious monthly ticket, thank you.) )

Early in the morning of August 15th.

As soon as the gate of the capital was opened, two horses rushed in, and the sergeant guarding the gate looked at the sign in the hand of the man on horseback, quickly shrank his head, and let the two of them ride in.

The crisp sound of horses' hooves echoed through the streets, and the two horses were clearly heading in the direction of the Forbidden City.

The early dynasty had not yet begun, Sun Chengzong was preparing to enter the Taihe Palace, and the rest of the ministers had also entered the Forbidden City, waiting for the emperor to arrive. These days, the emperor has been waiting for news from Sichuan, it can be said that he is restless, Sun Chengzong knows, but where is the news so fast, although Sun Chengzong is also anxious, but he still wants to comfort the emperor, the emperor is young after all, and the young man's temperament is more anxious, which is understandable.

The news that the Jiangning battalion began to exterminate the Liukou also spread in the imperial court, every morning in the court, everyone will discuss in private, I don't know what the situation is, optimistic view, that the Jiangning battalion will be able to exterminate the Liukou, get a big victory, the Ming Dynasty has since gotten rid of the troubles of the Liukou, a cautious view, that the extermination of the Liukou is not a matter of a while, it will take a while, maybe the Liukou escaped from Sichuan again, and entered Huguang or Henan, Shanxi and other places, it is also possible.

The whole court seemed a little restless.

The two eunuchs took a step forward and ran towards the Taihe Palace.

The civil and military ministers outside the Taihe Hall all looked at these two eunuchs, and they felt that it was too strange, all along, the eunuchs in the palace walked with their heads bent over, and they also trotted with their heads down when they encountered big things, and they had never seen them run with such a pace.

The two eunuchs didn't care about everyone's eyes, and quickly ran to Sun Chengzong, who was about to enter the Taihe Palace. Whispering something to the matter, everyone saw Sun Chengzong's body tremble, turned around quickly, and took a step, because he didn't pay attention, he stumbled. Fortunately, the eunuchs around him had already paid attention and helped Sun Chengzong.

Sun Chengzong actually nodded at the eunuch.

This kind of strange situation has never been seen before.

Sun Chengzong walked straight in the direction of the noon gate, and he also didn't care about everyone's eyes.

Soon, the brocade guard in the direction of the noon gate came over, holding a black box in his hand, and on the top of the box, three chicken feathers could be faintly seen, which was an urgent twist.

When the brocade guard ran in front of Sun Chengzong. Sun Chengzong took the brocade box, opened it immediately, took out the fold from it, held it in both hands and began to look at it seriously.

Soon, Sun Chengzong's hands began to tremble.

He spoke to the eunuch beside him.

"Quick, go and report to the emperor, Lord Su Tiancheng's twist and turn is here, go and ......"

Liu Zongzhou, Yang Sichang and others. Also came over, they guessed. It must be the battle report from Sichuan, I don't know what the battle situation is this time, and the mystery will be revealed soon.

The eunuch hesitated a little, at this time, it was the time for the emperor to meet the queen mother, if he went to disturb. The emperor blamed it, but he couldn't afford it.

Sun Chengzong looked at the two eunuchs.

"You lead the way in front, and the official will follow you to meet the emperor, no matter where the emperor is, the cabinet ministers, Lord Yang of the military department and the official will be together. Go and meet the emperor. ”

The two eunuchs immediately lowered their heads and began to lead the way in front.

Six or seven ministers, following the eunuchs, walked towards the depths of the palace.

Many ministers immediately fried the pot, there must be something important, the old and serious cabinet chief assistant Sun Chengzong was a little unable to hold on, it was definitely the news of Sichuan's extermination of the Liukou, but from the face of Lord Sun, there was no sign of it.

Many ministers began to discuss, and their voices were a little louder, and the officials of Honglu Temple were also concerned, and they didn't care about maintaining order.

Zhu Youzhen was too tired, he was very worried during this time, and when he met his mother, his spirit was not very good.

He is the emperor, and there is no way to do it.

Wang Chengen walked in quietly, and when he was about to whisper something, Zhu Youzhen was a little impatient.

"If you have anything to say, just say it, I'm talking to the queen mother."

"The Queen Mother forgives the sins, the emperor forgives the sins, the first assistant of the cabinet, Lord Sun Chengzong, said that there is something to report, and the military secretary of the Ministry of War, the imperial envoy of the right capital, and the military affairs of the five provinces of the governor Su Tiancheng have arrived."

Zhu Youzhen stood up suddenly, with a very strange look on his face.

He quickly thought of something.

"Mother, the child is rude."

"Go get busy, there's nothing going on here."

Zhu Youzhen hurriedly walked outside, the pace was very fast, the palace maids along the way hurriedly avoided it, and Wang Chengen trotted behind, panting slightly.

Sun Chengzong and others were waiting outside the gate of the Inner Palace.

Seeing Zhu Youzhen come out, Sun Chengzong hurriedly knelt down, and everyone knelt down as well.

Sun Chengzong held the fold high.

"The emperor is overjoyed, the Jiangning battalion and the white pole soldiers exterminated 90,000 liukou, and captured the leader of the liukou, Li Zicheng, the overall situation of Sichuan has been decided, and the liukou have not been able to harass me since then......"

Zhu Youzhen's body shook a little, and Wang Chengen beside him reached out to help, but was thrown away by Zhu Youzhen.

Picking up the fold in Sun Chengzong's hand, Zhu Youzhen looked carefully, the smile on his face became thicker and thicker, and finally Ha Lu Ha Da Lu smiled.

"God bless me Daming, I want to drink, prepare wine for me, I want to drink......"

When Wang Chengen was about to look for wine, Zhu Youzhen spoke again.

"I want to drink with hundreds of civil and military officials, pass on the decree, this morning the court is exempted, the Ministry of Rites will set a wine feast, the time will be set at noon, and all the officials above the fourth grade in the capital will participate."

In the Palace of Nourishing the Heart, Zhu Youzhen watched the song three times in one breath, and his mood had already stabilized.

"Sun Aiqing, what do you think of Su Aiqing's suggestion?"

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks it is feasible, 120,000 Liukou in Sichuan, of which 90,000 have been exterminated, and the remaining 30,000 people have fled to the Songpanwei area, and may enter the Duogandu Division, the conditions in those places are difficult, and it is difficult to maintain the Liukou, and it is a matter of time before they are destroyed, and the bandit leader Li Zicheng was captured alive, and the general trend of the Liukou has gone, and the Songpanwei and the Weisho army in Sichuan and Henan can completely pursue the Liukou by victory."

Zhu Youzhen smiled and nodded.

"I see, Su Aiqing attributed all the credit to the prince, which is inappropriate, I thought, add Su Tiancheng to the crown prince Taibao, as a reward, the rest of the meritorious ministers, how to reward, after the detailed battle report comes, the military department will immediately implement it."

"Your Majesty, Lord Su expects that the Liukou will be basically exterminated, and Houjin will definitely make a move, and the Jiangning camp needs to go to Liaodong and Datong Mansion, and the minister thinks it makes sense."

"Well, that's right, I think about it, Su Tiancheng is the governor of Jiliao, the imperial history of the left capital, and he is fully responsible for the affairs of Liaozhou and Jizhou, and he can cut it first and then play, and he has the power to act cheaply, what do you think."

"The emperor is wise."

"The cabinet is preparing to draft a decree to summon Su Aiqing to escort Li Zicheng back to Beijing, I really didn't expect that the prince is doing very well this time, and at the moment of crisis, I am very pleased to stick to the capital of Kuizhou."

The civil and military ministers of the imperial court finally got the news.

Su Tiancheng led the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion to exterminate 90,000 rogues, captured the leader of the bandits, Li Zicheng, and the remaining 30,000 rogues in Sichuan, fled to the area of Songpanwei and Duogandusi, and the time of destruction was not far away.

The emperor learned the news, canceled the early dynasty, and prepared a big banquet for the minister of civil and military affairs, and the Ministry of Rites was already arranging.

All of a sudden, all kinds of discussions came out.

Most of them praised Su Tiancheng and Jiang Ning Ying, I didn't think that it only took more than half a year for Jiang Ning Ying to basically exterminate the Liukou, and some people discussed the next step, what Su Tiancheng would do, some people think that Su Tiancheng must go to Liaodong, preside over the situation there, and then exterminate the Houjin Tartars, and some people think that Su Tiancheng must return to the imperial court and enter the cabinet, Su Tiancheng is only in his twenties, and he has made such a huge contribution, which can be called the pillar of the Ming Dynasty.

The minister who had a heart quickly went to visit Su Tiancheng's mansion and told him the good news.

After Zhu Xianxin learned the news, she shed tears, Su Tiancheng has been away for more than half a year, she is always worried that fighting is not a trivial matter, not to mention facing the extremely vicious rogue, I can't imagine that Su Tiancheng is staring at the pressure.

basically exterminated the rogue, indicating that Su Tiancheng was going back to the capital, and the family could be reunited again.

Zhu Youzhen participated in the feast in high spirits.

All the ministers of civil and military affairs were smiling, and at the banquet, everyone kept chanting the words of the emperor's sage and the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty, which made Zhu Youzhen even more happy.

What everyone didn't expect was that the Queen Mother also came out of the banquet, holding a wine glass, and gave a glass of wine to all the ministers of civil and military affairs, Queen Zhang and Queen Mother of Yi'an also came forward, many ministers of civil and military affairs, I haven't seen Queen Zhang of Yi'an who lives in a simple place for a long time, Queen Zhang of Yi'an is the queen of the former emperor Zhu Youxiao, after Zhu Youzhen ascended the throne, the honorific name Zhang is Queen Yi'an.

The atmosphere of joy spread in the imperial court, and soon spread to all parts of the capital, even ordinary people, who also knew that the Jiangning camp had exterminated the rogues and captured the bandit leader Li Zicheng.

For a time, the large and small restaurants and teahouses in the capital became lively, and the common people in the capital, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, were equally concerned about the big and small things in the court.

The common people think of it a lot simpler, they have heard too many stories of Su Tiancheng, all along, the Jiangning camp has appeared in a victorious posture, especially after killing 30,000 Houjin Tartars, Su Tiancheng has become a mythical existence in the eyes of the people, and he is already the most powerful minister of the Ming Dynasty.

Everyone is looking forward to when Su Tiancheng, who received the holy decree, will return to the capital.

The common people are also inquiring, on the day Su Tiancheng returns to the capital, they must go to the street to have a look, to see how high-spirited this young governor of the five provinces is. (To be continued......)
