Yang Ling came to the palace gate, the sedan chair man and the four guards went to the side to rest in the warm sun, Yang Ling lived too far, usually rode into the city, now the two bandit leaders one escaped, one did not know whether he was still hidden in Beijing, Yang Ling did not dare to be careless, afraid of being hit by a cold arrow.

The luxurious semi-recumbent soft seat of this big sedan car has been dismantled, and it is set up in two rows, and in the front row of the sedan curtain sits Wu Hanchao, who has the same clothes as him, and Yang Ling sits in the back, and there is no doubt from the outside.

Yang Ling is a frequent visitor in the palace, although the guards on duty are rotated three times, they all recognize this adult, the general of the noon gate took the tooth card, glanced at it in vain, and returned Yang Ling with both hands with a smile on his face.

Yang Ling took the tooth card back into his arms and asked, "The emperor hasn't gone down to court yet, has he?" ”

General Wumen smiled and said: "Yes, my lord, the lower officials are guarding the palace gate, and the adults have not left the palace yet."

Yang Ling nodded, did not cross the Jinshui Bridge, and bypassed the Taihe Hall from the side. This clock and drums rang in unison, hundreds of officials retreated, Yang Ling stood under a pavilion pillar waiting for the civil and military officials to withdraw, the emperor's guard of honor went to the apse, until the Huangluo umbrella cover was out of sight, he continued to walk towards the nave.

Walking to the front of the Huagai Palace, I saw two adults coming out of the palace door angrily, and Yang Ling took a face-to-face with Yang Ling, Yang Ling saw that it was Wang Wei and Zhan Shi Yang Fang, who were the great talents of Zeng Sanyuan and the first, and stopped unconsciously and bowed to them.

After Liu Jin deposed Liu Jian and Xie Qian, Yang Fang angrily reported illness and returned to his hometown, some of them were no longer in Beijing.

Yang Fang is old and strong, although he knows that Yang Ling's position has not changed now, but he has great power, and he has almost the influence of the government, but he still does not squint and passes by.

Wang Ling's perception of Yang Ling has changed greatly, especially the last time Baiguan knelt in the palace on a snowy night, Yang Ling persuaded the emperor to withdraw the list of annihilating the party, and after Yang Yiqing, who was a celebrity, and Wang Shouren, who was in prison, led the troops to take command, he had a better impression of him, and when he saw Yang Ling giving a salute, he hurriedly stopped and hurriedly returned the salute and said: "Lord Yang is less polite, Yang Zhanshi and Li Dashi have a dispute and leave in anger, Wang goes to persuade him."

Wang Wei, Yang Fangsu and Li Dongyang were good friends, Yang Ling didn't know what disputes there were between them, and said with a smile: "Lord Wang is at his own convenience", Wang Wei smiled bitterly, and hurriedly chased Yang Fang with his robe, Yang Ling was stunned for a moment, and turned around and walked into the Huagai Palace.

Seeing that Yang Ling was coming, the little chamberlain was about to sing loudly, Yang Ling waved his hand to stop it, lifted the curtain of thick sheep felt, and walked into the warm pavilion on the right, only to see Li Dongyang sitting on a chair, holding a pen and reviewing the folds.

Seeing Yang Ling coming in, Li Dongyang hurriedly put down his pen and got up, and smiled at him: "Lord Yang, how can you have time to visit today?" Hurry up, please take a seat. ”

Yang Ling said with a smile: "Don't work for adults", as he spoke, he pulled a chair and sat on the desk, Li Dongyang called someone to serve a cup of hot tea, sat down and said: "This official was shocked to hear that a large group of bandits went to your house with open fire last night, and the submission of the Criminal Department is unknown, do you have any details?" ”

Yang Ling said: "Although the captured bandits are not afraid of death, the torture of the factory guards can not be resisted by flesh and blood, and they can't help but not recruit, according to the confession of those thieves, their leader Yang Hu, the big thief, does intend to rebel, but this night attack on my mansion seems to be a temporary intention, but why did they gather so many people to quietly arrive in the capital, and those bandits don't know the details."

Li Dongyang frowned and said slightly: "I have carefully read the official documents of the Criminal Department, if it is said that they are here for Lord Yang, it makes no sense, and there is no need to use the pseudonym Lord Yang Fujiena, it seems that it is indeed a temporary intention to change the plan, what is the original purpose of their entry into Beijing, but it makes people think about it very much."

Yang Ling smiled and said: "At this time, let the Criminal Department and the Bazhou Government go to investigate, the foolish people believe some false words, and there are countless antics that they think are the true son, and now the imperial court is wanted, and they can't play any tricks."

Isn't there someone in Mianchi Village, Henan Province who claims to be the emperor, and half of the people in a village are prime ministers and ministers, and the ten-year-old dolls have all been named the general of the Standing Palace, and it took more than 20 years to be discovered by the imperial court? When the first emperor heard the news, he just laughed and ignored it, and none of those foolish people were punished."

Li Dongyang glanced at him meaningfully, and said, "Lord Yang seems to be quite forgiving and understanding of these robbers who have rebellious intentions?" ”

He shook his head and said, "The embankment of a thousand miles collapsed in the anthill; A hundred-foot room, burned with the smoke of the crevice. Yang Hu is not as good as those foolish people, he not only contacted the green forest thieves in the three mountains and five mountains, plotted to rebel, and even attacked and killed the important ministers of the court at the foot of the Son of Heaven, which shows his fierceness, once an incident arises, it will be a great disaster."

Yang Ling nodded and said: "What the lord said is, but the theft is fundamentally bad in the imperial court, otherwise Yang Hu will be gone today, and there will be Zhang Hu and Li Hu tomorrow, and they will be inexhaustible."

The first emperor Bingguo for more than ten years, hard work, is a rare sage and sage in the ages, but these years of natural disasters continue, often here floods, there are thousands of miles of red land, and then there are some cool officials and corrupt officials who are not sympathetic to the people's feelings, and the people lack food and clothing, so no matter whether the court is clear or mediocre, it is inevitable that someone will make trouble. ”

He raised his glass and took a sip of tea, and continued: "The Nanyang crops introduced by the lower officials can increase the grain output of the Ming Dynasty several times, and can help hundreds of people. ”

Li Dongyang said with a smile: "This official has heard about several Nanyang crops you introduced, and has sent people to Nanyang to investigate, and the crops are indeed very large, although I don't know whether the northeast and northwest are suitable for planting, but the large land in the south of the Yangtze River must be a good thing."

Yang Ling was overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "Have you been inspected?" The lower officials did not say that arid and cold places are also suitable for planting, and the clues will be known after the trial planting in spring, but this can only fill the stomachs of the people, and if you want to enrich the people and strengthen the country, it is imperative to lift the sea ban.

The coastal people account for at least a quarter of the people of the Ming Dynasty, those places have three mountains and six rivers and one field, the soil is narrow and sparsely populated, the grains are not abundant, the people of the border and the sea are all taking the boat as their home, the sea as their field, under the sea ban, the people's livelihood is depressed, and the people gather for the thieves.

The lifting of the ban on trade is not only to enrich the people and fill the treasury, but also to strengthen exchanges with overseas countries. It's not in place to do it behind closed doors, let alone a huge country? ”

Li Dongyang nodded and said: "The coastal situation, I have also been investigated in detail, in the past, people said: the source of the malpractice is like a rat's hole, and one must be left, if it is still stuffed, it will be worn everywhere." The lifting of the ban on trade also has its harms, but governing is meant to take advantage of the evils, because it is unwise to choke on food and waste food."

He raised his eyes and smiled: "This official has actually considered it for a long time, and I am willing to support Lord Yang's strategy of lifting the sea ban and trading with Fanguo, but in my opinion, there are still two points to be discussed, one is that the court officials should not be convinced, and the other is that if the ban is fully lifted now, the rebellion of the Japanese at sea has not yet been completed."

Yang Ling said excitedly: "The first one is not difficult, as long as Senior Li is the first to allow it, the rest can be handed over to the lower officials." This second case, the adults are very worried, the lower officials think that they can first reopen Ningbo, Guangzhou City, Tianjin City, plus the original Quanzhou City, a total of four places.

Tianjin is connected to Korea, Rakshasa, Ningbo, Quanzhou, Ryukyu, Guangzhou, Siam, and Western countries. Do adults think it is feasible for the Criminal Department, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Household Affairs to set up a division and yamen to manage the law, litigation, taxes, and negotiated commodity prices between Chinese and foreign trade? ”

Li Dongyang's only concern was that Yang Ling was arbitrary and monopolized the power of trade matters, and he couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this: Yang Ling worked hard and tried his best to lift the ban on trade, but he didn't get any benefits and didn't have any rights?

Li Dongyang hesitated for a moment and asked: "Lord Yang initiated this move, once the ban is lifted, is the internal factory not involved?" ”

Yang Ling smiled secretly in his heart, this old man doesn't care about official articles, it seems that he only fishes dry, and he is a real person. As soon as the ban on trade was lifted, Yang Ling's carriage and horse shops all over the country were the largest transportation departments controlling the silver flow, and it would be no exaggeration to say that it was going to make money.

Yang Ling also controls the power of the tax supervisor, and I don't know how many people want to shoot cold guns and release cold arrows, and the advantage of his eyes is that the eyes are firmly on the same front as him.

Yang Ling said with a smile: "Because there are many contacts with foreign countries in maritime trade, the criminal department can settle lawsuits, the Jinyi guard investigates illegal traders, and the tax supervisor and the tax collector of the household department share responsibilities, and the tax supervisor collects taxes, and the tax collector supervises taxes, or vice versa, so that the yamen can avoid their own affairs and clever names, so as not to make the people miserable."

Li Dongyang smiled happily: "It seems that Lord Yang has thought it out and has already become a bamboo chest, very good, when do you think it is appropriate to make a statement to the emperor?" ”

Yang Ling thought about it, the investigation of the coastal nobles and officials with the background of the gentry has not yet returned complete news, the war in the north is tight, and it is not appropriate to propose a new policy at this time, so he said: "I think it is better to wait for the war in the north to calm down, and the imperial court can go all out to do this important thing, how about it is scheduled for February next year?" ”

Li Dongyang nodded with a smile, Yang Ling felt comfortable in his heart, put the teacup on the case, and then noticed that there was a painting on the case, if it was an official document that Li Dongyang was dealing with, it was inconvenient for him to look at it, a painting was nothing, Yang Ling turned the painting around, only to see an ugly-faced old woman riding on a buffalo, playing the flute complacently, and the old woman inscribed a line of small words on her forehead: "This Li Xiya Xiangye."

Xiya is Li Dongyang's number, who is so bold and so insulting? Yang Ling was taken aback, and before he could take a closer look, he was stunned and asked, "Who is this who is so rude and dares to insult adults with calligraphy and painting?" ”

Li Dongyang smiled faintly and said, "Yang Fang and the old man are just joking, it's harmless, hehe."

Yang Ling remembered that Yang Fang had just left angrily, and thoughtfully lowered his head to look at the painting again, the painting was not a new work, but a poem next to the painting had not dried up, obviously just filled in not long ago, the quatrain dragon flying and phoenix danced, writing: Concubine Yang died Ma Weipo, and Zhaojun was resentful. Competing for grandma riding on the back of a bull, the spring breeze is a song of peace.

The inscription is also Xiya, thinking that Li Dongyang has just seen the inscription poem. The poems are quite magnanimous, ignoring the meaning of satirizing his corpse and bowing to the ministers in the painting, but instead of having a different opportunity, Yang Ling looked at the scroll, stood up, and respectfully made a gesture to Li Dongyang.

Li Dongyang said in surprise: "What does Lord Yang mean by this?" ”

Yang Ling said: "The university scholar is high and bright, open-minded, so that Yang Ling admired, this painting is painted by the talented Yang Fang, the first assistant Li Gong inscription poem, Yang felt a lot after seeing it, the clear self-clear, the turbid self-turbidity, and asked the university scholar to give this painting to the lower officials, the lower officials are willing to serve the adults, for the Ming Dynasty, for the people, why not be afraid of gossip? ”

Li Dongyang's eyes flashed, the last time Yang Ling came to visit, straight to the point and reprimanded the Eight Tigers, he secretly suspected that Yang Ling's actions were with the Eight Tigers, and he used the power of the Eight Tigers to show his ambitions, watching his behavior today, listening to the meaning of his words, obviously a fellow practitioner, Li Dongyang's worries lie in the fact that the Eight Tigers are powerful, the emperor is playful, the empire is huge, and it is difficult to support himself, if Yang Ling is really a like-minded person, then what else is there to worry about?

Li Dongyang said happily: "It's just a painting, Lord Yang appreciates it, just take it."

Yang Ling rolled up the painting and carefully held it in his arms, sat down and said, "Just now, Lord Yang left angrily, and left the painting to insinuate irony, what is the reason?" ”

Li Dongyang said helplessly: "Since Gonggong Liu presided over the inner court, some ministers in the DPRK and China have been deeply dissatisfied, and they have complained of illness and not going to work in the yamen, so that many yamen have their official positions, no one is in charge, and public cases are piling up.

In addition, the war in the north was in full swing, and many major events were delayed due to the conscription, transportation, war, compassionate service, grain supply, and troop transfer.

Liu Gonggong was furious, so he issued an order: Officials who are unable to handle official business for one month due to illness will be exempted from paying for that month; Those who have reached one year will be demoted to idle positions; Those who have reached three years will be dismissed from official office and will never be hired.

These officials had no choice but to go back to the yamen office, Liu Gonggong was still angry, and asked for the holy edict, saying that the civil officials were too indiscriminate, and those who were not brilliant in war and outstanding in politics in the future should not be sealed, and Lord Yang had just rushed back to the yamen, and he was furious when he heard the news of this rectification of civil officials, and found the old man's theory, and the result was alas! ”

Yang Ling was also furious when he heard this: This is the so-called Qing official? Ignoring the overall situation and ignorance of the general situation, for his stinky shelf, political affairs are stacked on one side, and military affairs related to the life and death of thousands of people are stacked on the side, suing for sick leave, and enjoying the court with peace of mind, what a group of bastards!

Yang Ling gritted his teeth and sneered: "Corrupt and lawless officials, not available!" Incorruptible and mediocre and incompetent officials are not available! Officials who are both honest and capable, but short-sighted, hinder the imperial court from eliminating ills, and revive the Ming Dynasty, are especially unavailable! Gonggong Liu may have many criticisms in the past, and his purpose in rectifying the rule of officials may not be correct, but such an official can be discarded, and the lower officials resolutely support Gonggong Liu's decision."

Yang Ling was really annoyed, got up and said: "The scholars don't have to be embarrassed, these evil things will be handed over to Gonggong Liu to do, and the government of the imperial court will not be harmonious and happy." Half a thousand sails on the side of the sinking boat, ten thousand trees in front of the sick tree, the decay of these stumbling feet, kick it away! ”

Yang Ling said goodbye and withdrew from the Huagai Palace, and the anger in his heart was a little less. The snow in the palace was swept very clean, the air was dry, and Yang Ling's cold wind was blowing on his face, and he felt that he was nameless, and he was a little too calm.

He secretly alerted himself, now he is authoritative, every word and deed is noticed, should not be rash, happy and angry, in the future, should pay more attention to self-cultivation and surname, the study of the city.

Yang Ling secretly took a breath, his tongue touched the roof of the palate, his body column relaxed, according to the method taught by Wu Hanchao, his left hand was hugged, such as hooking a ball, the thumb of his right hand pinched the middle finger at noon, his shoulders sank, and he walked slowly, like floating in the clouds.

This is Wudang's superior internal strength method, and it will take decades to practice to the fullest. Yang Ling has passed the best age for martial arts, and he has never thought about becoming a martial arts master, just to strengthen his physique and cultivate his surname.

However, there is indeed a wonderful thing about this art of breathing, not only does it make people's spiritual platform empty, no longer buoyant, but also can dissipate fatigue and refresh after meditating for a while. Yang Ling didn't pay attention to any sect restrictions, listened to the formula, asked to understand, and went back to talk carefully to the young lady, Han Youniang has a solid foundation, and has practiced hard qigong, it is not difficult to learn good kung fu again, Yang Ling himself can't become a big weapon, the lady learns, it is equivalent to the descendants of the Yang family have learned, and he still understands this account.

Yang Ling was a beginner, his movements were a little stiff, he looked at his nose and nose, and he floated all the way to the Xinuan Pavilion of Qianqing Palace, and when he looked up, he saw Zhengde wearing a black dragon robe, wearing a winged dragon crown, holding a haunt in his arms, looking at him with a smile, surrounded by a group of eunuchs and palace maids, and a large group of people also stretched their necks with curious expressions.

Yang Ling couldn't help but smile, and hurriedly put down his posture and hurriedly rushed over to salute: "Weichen sees the emperor, why are you standing here?" ”

Zhengde's face was like jade, and he pulled Yang Ling up and said happily: "Haha, I was watching some juggling games in the yard, and I heard that you were swaying, like a duck, so I rushed over to see the excitement."

Yang Ling's face was slightly red, and he saw that a platform had been set up in the courtyard, the door of the Warm Pavilion Hall was open, and there was a charcoal stove burning inside, a Panlong reclining chair in the middle, and a soft velvet blanket as white as snow was piled on it.

Yang Ling saw that Zhengde was still keen on these juggling games, and couldn't help but whisper to him: "Your Majesty, it's no wonder that the ministers are nagging, the emperor has inherited the unification, married a concubine, and will change Yuan Zhengde in a few days, now the court and China are not stable, and the border passes are at war, the emperor should not be too distracted in these matters." ”

Zhengde said with a bitter face: "Master Li persuad, Master Yang persuaded, Master Jiao persuaded me, now you have come to persuade me, trapped in this deep palace, what I can go to every day is Taihe Palace, Qianqing Palace, Renshou Palace, born and raised here, raise your head and be in that sky." In addition to going to the court, listening to lectures, and reviewing and reading the folds, there is nothing to do, so you have to find something to do, right? Yang waits to read, but my recital is reviewed on time, and there is no backlog."

Yang Ling listened to what the emperor said, so he had to say: "But the weather is cold, the emperor is watching a play in the courtyard, and the door of the warm pavilion is open, if it is cold, how can you get it?" ”

Zhengde said disapplausively: "Where is it so easy, I make two trips to Taizu Changquan every morning, both of them are light clothes and short support, if you talk about the body, I am stronger than you." ”

He said with great interest: "By the way, go into the temple with me, these monkeys will also be able to fight boxing today, see you open your eyes."

I saw a thin old man, wearing a sea green, wearing a square scarf, leading four monkeys out, turning over his heels, stacking Arhats, full of tricks, the best thing is that the old man whistled, the four monkeys actually boxed, Yang Ling saw two little monkeys waving their furry paws, staggering and cute, and couldn't help but smile, look at that look, want to come to fight drunk boxing.

The other two monkeys fought against each other with a clear eye, although there were only four or five moves, and they ran back to the old man to beg for fruit to eat, but Zhengde saw that the fight was indeed Taizu's long fist, and couldn't help clapping his hands and laughing: "Come on, reward it."

The two little eunuchs carried a small basket, walked to the front of the steps with a smile, and pushed it out, and the basket was full of new copper coins.

Zhengde smiled: "Hehe, look at these monkeys, they are more cute than those hateful people in the outer court and inner palace, Yang Shiyu, do you think their punches are fun?" ”

Yang Ling smiled slightly, and suddenly heard a man's voice in the side room through the window lattice: "It's really interesting, this monkey is clever, I think I saw the emperor practicing his fists and feet in the early morning, and he secretly learned a few tricks after a trip to Taizu's long fist."

Yang Ling was stunned, Ge Di's eyes widened, the voice was exactly the same as his, and the tone and tone were the same, even he was suspicious that he was in another room. Then there were a few smug laughter, and the voice of Emperor Zhengde said: "Although it is interesting, it is always lacking, if the spring flowers are blooming and the birds are singing, then the beautiful scenery is better than watching the little monkeys."

Then Yang Ling's voice said, "What's so difficult about this? The emperor is the Son of Heaven, and he wants to rejuvenate the earth, flowers bloom, and birds come to the ceremony, and the god of the four chakras does not dare to disobey the holy oracle."

The words did not fall, the faint sound of the bird's noise and the warbler's song sounded, and gradually the sound of horses' hooves rose, and there was the sound of laughter and laughter, which made people unconsciously emerge in their minds a picture of a lady stepping on spring.

Yang Ling's eyes widened wider and wider, his heart was pounding, a name almost rushed out of his mouth, he couldn't help but rush over, and opened the door of the pavilion, all kinds of sounds suddenly stopped, and the two and a half bent beauties straightened up in surprise.

The two beauties are wearing purple silk jackets, dark satin red armor, jade skirts, delicate feet wearing double sheepskin gold cloud toe shoes, the skin is tender and jade, and the melon seed face is willow eyebrows, which are the two opera girls I saw last time.

The shy flower is still as pretty as ice, but Xie Yu glanced at him with a smile, with Zhu Xia on his cheeks and autumn waves in his eyes, which has a unique moving charm. Zhengde muttered: "It's boring and boring, there will be evil young people in the countryside bullying the people and girls later, I want you to watch the drama of saving people, it's boring to be exposed, it's really unbearable." ”

Yang Ling turned around in disappointment, silently walked to Zhengde's side and said, "Weichen just heard this vivid ventriloquist, and he didn't think of an old person, and he thought it was her outside the door."

Xie Yu Shy Flower also stepped into the hall, standing around Zhengde vividly, and after hearing this, both pairs of pretty eyes were full of eyes on Yang Ling.

Zheng Deqi said: "I was really surprised when I first heard this ventriloquist, even the silk and bamboo instruments they imitated, who is your old man, do you have such a skill?" ”

Yang Ling thought of the girl who was standing in the sunshine and came to her with a high spirit. She raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "Lord Yang, I don't need a flute."

The delicate voice still echoed in his ears, and he remembered the heart-wrenching pain when he thought of the stone stained with blood and some silk hair on the edge of the cliff, Yang Ling's throat was a little choked, he coughed twice, and then said in a dumb voice: "This old man, the emperor also remembers, is that Tang Yixian Tang girl."

"Tang Yixian", Zhengde chewed it slowly, and his face darkened, the first girl who left a shadow in his heart, how could it be so easy to forget.

The two men were silent, the eunuchs and palace maids around them didn't know what was going on, they were silent one by one, Xie Yu and Shahua looked at each other, biting their lips lightly, their long eyelashes couldn't help blinking, and their faces were full of curiosity.

They have seen a lot of men, and it is rare that the two in front of them are the emperor who owns the world, and the other is an important minister of the court under one person and above ten thousand people. A fairy is a beautiful name.

Zhengde touched his nose, and after a while, he suddenly asked, "No news?" Even if it's bad news? ”

Yang Ling shook his head and said: "No, the government has already given up the search, and the micro-minister ordered the inner factory to pay attention to the visit, but there has been no clue."

Zhengde waved his hand happily and said: "It's all gone, Yang Shi read into the palace, there must be business to talk to me", he looked at the explanation, shy glance, the two girls are very well-behaved, know when to be coquettish and stupid, when to keep their duty, immediately give a salute, and quietly retreat.

The two entered the inner room, Zhengde sat on the chair, and pointed casually: "You sit."

How can there be a second chair in the emperor's study, next to it is the sleeping couch where Zhengde rests, Yang Ling has not dared to pay attention to these subsections since he was scolded by Wang Qiong pointing his nose, he stood in front of the imperial case with a smile, and said: "Emperor Xie, it is convenient for the minister to report things here."

Zhengde nodded, looked sideways and thought for a moment, and said, "Is there an eyebrow for the lifting of the sea ban or is the war in the northern border area tightened?" ”

Yang Ling shook his head and said: "No, does the emperor remember that before sending troops, he secretly instructed Miao Kui to severely beat the little prince, punish the fire sieve, and secretly contact Duoyan Sanwei in addition to division?" ”

Zhengde's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "But it has worked?" ”

Yang Ling nodded and said: "Well, the little prince suspects that the fire sieve has a secret agreement with the Ming Dynasty, and now he is very guarded, the fifteen thousand men and horses of the fire sieve are arranged on the flank, and they resist the army of the general soldier Xu Tai alone, and the looted grain and grass are not willing to support them, and the fire sieve subordinates have many complaints."

The situation on the battlefield does not seem to be critical at present, Yang Yiqing does not move, but he drags the little prince to prevent him from leaving, there must be a plan, but the Tatars have been plundering our border every year, this scourge must be removed, and the current differentiation of him and the fire sieve is only the first step.

If we get the support of Duoyan Sanwei, we can get an elite army out of thin air, and at the same time, we can get a large number of war horses from the Hetao area every year, on the one hand, we can strengthen the mobile combat capability of the Ming border army.

On the other hand, the people in Hebei have the responsibility of raising horses, but there are no good horses, and the people are burdened with heavy forced labor, and they do not have much gain in the country.

The emperors of all dynasties and dynasties did not dare to compare with their founding kings, because the achievements of opening up the territory are no matter how holy and virtuous the king's achievements can not be harmonious.

Zhengde's heart was pounding, and his young and handsome face was filled with a red tide of excitement, and he nodded again and again: "Yang Qing is right, a battle with the Tatars is just a temporary achievement, and an alliance with Duoyan Sanwei, I will increase an army, the enemy will lose a place, and then divide and disintegrate them, which is the long-term strategy." If this matter is successful, Yang Qing's credit is really not comparable to the generals who attacked the city and seized the land, beheaded the generals and captured the flag, did Duoyan Sanwei receive a secret letter from the imperial court? ”

Yang Ling bowed his head and said: "I have already made contact with them, but due to the many disputes between us and Duoyan Sanwei, although the great leader of Huadang intends to throw himself on the side of my Daming, there are many nobles in the three tribes who are suspicious, and they don't believe in the envoys I sent, and the chiefs reply to the news and ask me to be Ming."

He hesitated for a moment, Huadang's condition was simply to put himself on an equal footing with the Great Tomorrow, if he said it, I was afraid that the Son of Zhengde would be furious immediately, but it was a big matter, and he was really unwilling to give up, Yang Ling stubbornly said: "Huadang is just a big chief of the grassland tribe, who does not practice sages and does not know etiquette, and even asked the emperor to go to Datong in person and make a bloody alliance with him on Baishan Mountain, and Duoyan Sanwei is willing to take refuge in Daming."

After Yang Ling finished speaking, he hurriedly said: "But this matter can be bargained, Weichen means, the emperor can send a royal family member who can represent the court and the Son of Heaven to make an appointment, and he will definitely be able to dispel his doubts."

To Yang Ling's surprise, Zhengde did not get angry, but pinched his chin thoughtfully, he groaned for a long time, laughed softly, raised his eyes and said to Yang Ling: "Do you want me to see them in person?" Even Boyan Khan sometimes fights, sometimes seeks peace, and treats me with courtesy, and Huadang's courage is not small. ”

Yang Ling was anxious when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Weichen also knows that Hua Dang's move is a bit arrogant, but if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan", his eyes became cunning, and he said softly: "If it is not my race, its heart will be different, Duoyan Sanwei is still a Mongolian after all, they throw themselves to us, just because they do not have the strength of Boyan Khan to loot and seize a lot of property, so now the cooperation is just to take their own benefits."

We are now enduring the moment, in the future the national strength is strong, the armed forces are complete, not only to include Tatar Mongolia and Warat Mongolia into the territory of the Ming Dynasty, but also the tiger next to the couch can be an exception? If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan."

"Hey, hey, hey", Emperor Zhengde stood up, laughing like a little hen that only laid eggs, he punched Yang Ling in the chest, and giggled: "Who said that I can't bear to be angry for a while?" ”

He spread his hands, blinked his eyes, and said: "The first emperor has only one son, and the rest of the clan and royal family are all crowned kings in various places, how can they represent the imperial court and the royal family of the Son of Heaven?" Who should Aiqing send? Is it the Queen Mother? Dowager? Or my two royal sisters? ”

Yang Ling was speechless, and after a little hesitation, he saw Zhengde jumping up, looking up to the sky and laughing: "Luck comes, the city wall can't stop it, this flower is really cute."

He said triumphantly: "This time, I went to Datong in person, but for the country, the people, and the Ming Dynasty. ”

Yang Ling was dumbfounded when he heard this, only to see Zhengdejun's face flushed, and he put his hands on his waist and said: "If you don't let me go openly, I will go secretly, Datong I will go!" He pointed at Yang Ling, majestic: "At this time, I will hand over to Yang Qing to be responsible, and after the New Year, we will call Xuanfu and go straight to Datong!" ”

(To be continued)
