"If the situation is like this, why should we respond to the enemy?" Zhu Qizhen suddenly raised his face, stared at Jian Huaizhen and asked.

Seeing that the emperor had asked this, Jian Huaizhen thought for a while and said: "These people in the rivers and lakes are loyal and good-natured, righteous and thin, all of them are strong in martial arts, and they are full of unique skills. ”

"Jokes, I'm dignified and will avoid it tomorrow. Can't we anticipate the enemy's opportunity first, and then counter it? Zhu Qizhen's face was gloomy when he heard this, and his words were gloomy.

Touching Zhu Qizhen's yin owl's eyes, Jian Huaizhen's heart trembled in vain.

Although Zhu Qizhen is his descendant, he is the person who is destined to return to the Ming Dynasty.

Although there are many children of the Zhu family, there can only be one who ascends to the treasure.

The dragon species in these emperors' families were born with brocade clothes and jade food, and they had thousands of honors and favors, but they could never avoid the conflicts, regarded as enemies, brothers turned against each other, and caused trouble against Xiao Wall, Jian Huaizhen understood that this was the fate that the children of the Zhu family could not avoid.

Zhu Qizhen's words were nothing more than trying to test his mind.

"It's not easy for the saint to say this, this time the people in the rivers and lakes are mobilizing the people, and they want to be unfavorable to the king, this is a fatherless and no king, and no one in the world can sit idly by. I have ordered someone to arrange a few people to protect the emperor's thoughtfulness. Jian Huaizhen said slowly.

Hearing Jian Huaizhen's promise, Zhu Qizhen was very pleased, he knew in his heart that there were many capable people under the emperor's aunt and grandmother, and he was also the mastermind behind the two major forces in the rivers and lakes.

"This time, with the help of Huang Huang's aunt and grandmother, after returning to Beijing, I will add officials to those who have made meritorious contributions." Zhu Qizhen made a promise in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Jian Huaizhen didn't feel dumb and smiled, but he still said respectfully to Zhu Qizhen with an unchanged face: "That's not necessary, all the people under his command are children of the rivers and lakes, and they are used to being at ease, and they may not be willing to go to the court to learn those etiquettes of kowtowing." If the saint is a high-ranking official, he may not be able to agree to the will of such people. What's more, this time to help the king, but also for the people of the country, seeing the situation in the world is chaotic, the wanderers are everywhere, the frontier is not quiet, and the chaos is imminent, and the Ming monarch needs to eat and drink, and work hard to create a peaceful and prosperous era for the people of the Ming Dynasty. ”

This just happened to say Zhu Qizhen's heart, the Ming Dynasty border disasters are everywhere, the war is extended, the huge territory has been swallowed up by foreign races, Wara and other barbarian invasions are like fire, often cross the border to kill people and set fires, loot cattle and sheep, the border people are not happy, although he is the son of heaven, but he has never been able to come up with any countermeasures to contain, only to let others slaughter, I am really sorry to open up the territory, the ancestors and ancestors who established the foundation.

Thinking of this, Zhu Qizhen stood up from the dragon chair, avoided the seat, and said respectfully to Jian Huaizhen: "Thank you for the teachings of the imperial aunt and grandmother, I still need the full support of the imperial aunt and grandmother to maintain the country." If the imperial aunt and grandmother are willing, I respectfully invite the imperial aunt and grandmother to be the ruler of the country and tide over the difficulties together. ”

Jian Huaizhen didn't know whether Yingzong Zhu Qizhen's words were a spur of the moment or something else, so he politely declined after a deep sigh: "The matter of the temple and the people should be decided by the Holy Lord, and the right to reward and punish people should be handled by the king, and these two things are definitely not for the subordinates to intervene in." It's not that the imperial aunt and grandmother don't want to help you, it's just that there are some things that the emperor must make his own decision, and don't be swayed by others. If the emperor's heart is the country, the society, and the people, he will understand how to act in the future. ”

Jian Huaizhen's subtle words made Zhu Qizhen quite heartbroken, and he couldn't help nodding slightly: "Qi Zhen has been taught." ”

"Your Majesty, please take a good rest today, take care of your spirits and deal with the unforeseen things on the way back to Beijing, and see you again tomorrow." Jian Huaizhen said to Zhu Qizhen that he was tired, and he wanted to say goodbye and go back.

"Please also ask the imperial aunt and grandmother to rest well, I can't have the imperial aunt and grandmother by my side." Zhu Qizhen waved his hand and bowed to watch Jian Huaizhen leave.

Although the emperor is traveling, the procession is still very spectacular.

After the palace came out, the people in Nanjing City competed to watch, all wanted to take this opportunity to see the dragon's face, if you were lucky enough to look at the emperor from afar when the emperor came out, it was enough to boast of the major events in the township, no one was willing to let go of such an opportunity.

However, there are mixed fish and dragons, and it is difficult to ensure that someone wants to be unfavorable to the emperor, if something happens to the emperor, the first person who will lose his head is the guard who guards the emperor.

Zhu Qizhen brought the Imperial Forest Army and Jinyi Guard from the palace naturally understood this truth, and originally wanted to disperse the people, but Yingzong's order said that he wanted to be close to the people and the people, if there were thousands of empty alleys, it would be the support of the people, so he couldn't help but prevent the people from looking at the holy face.

In this way, these Imperial Forest Army and Jinyi Guards were suffering, and the trip was in a hurry, and there were not many people who originally followed.

As soon as the silent whip sounded, the brocade guards dressed in flying fish suits and carrying embroidered spring knives on their waists rode forward, and the surging crowd quickly rushed forward, and the wide gap behind the leading horse team was quickly squeezed a lot.

The accompanying Imperial Guards and Jinyi Guards had to struggle to maintain themselves, so as not to be crowded into meatloaf by the blocked water.

A cadre of people is supporting themselves, suddenly hearing the vocal music, the middle door of the palace is wide open, it is obvious that it is the imperial court's guide music, listening to the sound of first two play bamboo, then six music pipes, four seven-hole flutes, two sheng, two cloud gongs, one side of the guide drum and a pair of nods.

Hearing such a sound, how could the lively people let it go, there was jubilation, the front of the crowd was naturally happy, and the people behind were desperately padding their feet and stretching their necks, wanting to see the majesty of the Son of Heaven.

The next round is the four royal staffs, the four Wu battles, and the four guards who serve the palace with standing melons, lying melons, stars, and Yue Palaces, and there are also people holding five-colored golden dragon flags, ten five-color dragon flags, and various color flags to hunt and hunt, showing the royal prestige.

This wave has been a long time and has not passed.

Seeing the bustling people, they all wanted to see the face of the sky as soon as possible, and one of the hawkers who watched the bustle was a little impatient and complained: "It's really troublesome for the Son of Heaven to travel, and it's not easy to prepare these objects properly." I haven't come out for a long time, which has delayed Lao Tzu's business. ”

An old scholar next to him glanced at this person and said: "The so-called king is the first to go out of the palace and move around the arch, so there is a system of honor and guards." The Son of Heaven's parade is by no means an ordinary thing, so how can it be neglected. ”

The man who complained just now was robbed by the old pedant, grabbed the old man, crossed his waist and asked menacingly: "In this way, the old master is familiar with the court etiquette, but I want to ask the old master when the son of heaven will come out?" ”

The old master glanced at this person, his face was full of meat, and he didn't know if he was born as a butcher who killed sheep and pigs, and he was a little afraid in his heart, so he hurriedly replied: "The strong man is merciful, and the old man will come immediately." ”

Hearing Lao Er's begging for mercy, the hawker-like man let go.

Fang Cai was a little out of breath, the old man was quick to breathe for a while, only then did he return to his previous appearance, and said slowly: "Before the Son of Heaven traveled on the chariot with five chariots, after the Holy Ancestor ascended the throne, he practiced frugality, replaced the jade chariot with a wooden chariot, and edicted two times the wooden chariot, one multiplied by vermilion lacquer, the main used for memorials, the so-called sacrifice Fang Ze, the Ming Hall, Fengzong Temple, and thousands of acres; Multiply one by the skin, and the Lord will use it for the time of good fortune. Twenty years later, the wooden bridle was abolished in the Great Driving Book, so simple and compassionate to material resources, it was the work of the Holy Son of Heaven. The emperors of all dynasties have not been able to catch up with ......"

The peddler interrupted with some anxiety: "In this way, the current emperor must be in the wooden bridle of the leather pull. ”

The old scholar was interrupted, and he couldn't help but say a little angrily: "The old man's words haven't been finished yet, don't be impatient." ”

The peddler asked anxiously: "Old man, don't deceive me that I don't know the etiquette of the imperial court, and talk nonsense, if you say it badly, your old life will be gone." ”

Hearing that the hawker was so intimidating, the little old man said in a little panic: "Okay, good, the strong man is angry, and the old man will say it immediately, and he will say it immediately." ”

"Say it quickly." The man asked sharply.

The old scholar hurriedly said: "As far as the old man knows, today's saints like to ride on a big horse, driving eight horses, four on the left and right, and now I am afraid that this is the only thing I am afraid of returning to Beijing." ”

"Son, what is the big chariot?"

"This, this, is not far from the sedan chair, but it is mostly the same." Lao Er can't seem to find the words.

"What to do, just say it if you know." The peddler-like man reached out and patted the old pedant on the back with his big palm.

Shocked by such a shot, the old pedant's body couldn't help but straighten up, as far as his eyes could see, only to see a big car coming out of the palace, so he said happily: "Look, the big horse is out, and the Son of Heaven is traveling." Lo and behold, there are four round pears on the outside, and ...... is not bad. ”

The old scholar was a little excited, after all, he had seen the Son of Heaven travel with his own eyes, unlike before, when he only read it in the canonical books.

The hawker-like man was obviously extremely concerned about Yingzong's travel, and when he heard the call of the old pedant, he hurriedly looked up, only to see a car coming out of the palace, four horses in the middle, four on each side, eight horses were snow-white, without a single stray hair, and the horses were decorated with rings and bells. The chariot is surrounded by a vermilion fence. There are also three in front of the wheel, and there are military flags in the back tree, each embroidered with a Shenwu pattern. It's just that the curtain is made of black satin, tied to the ring, and it is a green felt door, and the outside really can't see what the situation is inside.

Seeing this, the peddler left the old pedant and squeezed through the cracks, trying to get to the front.

The people on the street also understood that the wheel of the Son of Heaven was coming out, and the current emperor must be in it, and they were all extremely happy, feeling that after waiting for a long time, they finally waited.

In the sound of Ya music, the honor guard of the Son of Heaven traveled for several miles, and could not look at each other before and after.

The people who watched the excitement at the bottom proudly saw such a scene, and they were surging in emotion, and they squeezed forward desperately, just to suffer the brothers of the Imperial Forest Army and the Jinyi Guard to maintain order.

The crowd was too strong, and the guards who followed Yingzong Zhu Qizhen couldn't cope with this situation, and the saber ministers and guards in front of Da Ma Yuan were a little anxious, and the rest of the leopard tail guards each held guns and swords, and several people wore bows and arrows, and waited for the battle.

These guards were warned from above that they were only afraid of unappeasement on the way back to Beijing, so they had to be on standby at all times to protect the emperor's thoughtfulness.

The minister who led the team was still lucky, feeling that the sky was blue and white, and in the old capital of Nanjing, no one should have eaten the ambition leopard dared to feel that the emperor was breaking ground, and the city should be safer than the post road outside the city.

But things didn't go his way.

"Wronged, Your Majesty, the people's daughter has a grievance appeal, suing Nanjing Mansion Yin for being a prostitute, and the officials of Nanjing City protect each other, so that the people's girl dies with hatred, and the grievances are in vain." I saw a woman suddenly appear on the road in front of me to block the road and shout injustice, stretching out her hand to hold up a piece of paper.

The minister was very nervous about this change, and was slightly stunned, so he drank the order to drive him away.

"Go, drag this woman who is blocking the road and shouting grievances, you can't stop the holy drive." The Sabre Minister commanded one of the guards beside him.

The guard bowed down in reply, so that he could step forward and kneel in front of him, but he only heard a shout from the big chariot: "Slow." ”

Hearing this, the saber minister hurriedly rushed to the green felt door of the big horse, and replied in a respectful whisper: "What does the emperor command?" ”

"Since someone has sued Lord Fu Yin to go and get that woman's paper, I want to see it myself." Zhu Qizhen commanded in a deep voice.

"Yes, Wechen obeys." The Saber Minister hurriedly replied.

With this Tianxian, the saber minister did not dare to slack off, and naturally had to act in accordance with the emperor's dictation.

However, he was a little afraid that this woman was cheating, so he waved his hand backwards and motioned for a few leopard-tailed guards around him to follow him.

The commander had an order, and the guards of the leopard tail squad did not dare to slack off, so a few more people followed the saber minister and walked towards the woman who was kneeling on the ground in front of him.

When she came to her, she saw the woman kneeling on the ground looking pitiful, and the saber minister motioned for one of the guards to take the paper from her hand.

At this time, the woman stood up, took out a shining blade from her arms, and stabbed the guard.

The guards were caught off guard and were stabbed to death by the woman.

Seeing this, the Saber Minister shouted, "No, there are assassins." Protect the Emperor quickly. The woman dragged away.
