After worshipping heaven and earth, the groom and the bride were sent into the cave room, and the whole wedding process was uneventful, and there was no joke about the generals listening to the wall.

Li Xingzhi doesn't have any feelings for his wife, in his opinion, this is just a political transaction, but now that he is married, sharing a bed is naturally the proper meaning of the question.

"Lady, it's not early, let's go to bed peacefully."

After waving off a group of palace maids who wanted to come forward to serve, Li Xingzhi picked up the bride's big red hijab with the intention of drinking, after seeing Zhu Shuni's appearance, Li Xingzhi was secretly relieved, he married this lady is a blind marriage and dumb marriage, it is impossible not to worry, fortunately, Zhu Shuni's appearance is still dignified, and he stepped forward lightly, blew out the two bright candlesticks on the desk, and slowly put Zhu Shuni into his arms.

The spring breeze is proud, and you can see all the Chang'an flowers in one day.

After handing over the affairs of the Beijing division to Liu Lishun, Ma Sande and Song Guangkun, Li Xingzhi ordered Li Bangjie and Amba to prepare to set off and escort Zhang Yan and Zhu Cihong and others to Leiden.

In order to coordinate the situation in the Central Plains, Li Xingzhi ordered Zhang Shaoqian, the governor of Beizhili, to order the army and horses, and once the Central Plains war reopened, he could go south to reinforce Heluo at any time.

On February 11 of the first year of Yongli, Li Xingzhi's relatives unified 1,500 iron men and 6,000 cavalrymen of the Manchurian, Mongolian and Han green banners belonging to Amba and Alan Chai boarded a ship in Tongzhou and drove directly to Jinan through the Grand Canal.

Originally, when the Manchurian and Mongolian Han green flags were compiled, it was only about 5,000, and after several battles, the number of troops was reduced to less than 3,000, but a few years ago, the Jingbei Army made a northern expedition to the mountains and seas, and captured more than 3,000 Yiding in the cavalry of the Guanning Army under Wu Sangui, in order to supplement the consumption of the Manchurian and Mongolian green flags, Li Xingzhi distributed these 3,000 soldiers to the green flag soldiers according to race.

Because of the benefits of canal transportation, the full green flag and the cavalry, only seven days, the army arrived at the Luokou wharf.

At this time, the vitality of Jinan has recovered a lot from the east after entering the Kou, and Luokou is an important node connecting Leiden and Jinan, so it is particularly prosperous, full of merchants and all kinds of hawkers doing business.

The abolished prince Zhu Cihong and Zhang Yan and others have lived in the deep palace for a long time, where have they seen such a scene, but life and death are still under the control of Li Xingzhi, so they had to resist their curiosity, boarded the carriage that had been prepared, and went all the way to Laizhou along the cement road.

"Prime Minister, this palace often hears Liu Ge Lao say that the boundary of Shandong is not left behind, but today the palace has opened its eyes, it is this road, I am afraid that the thirteen provinces of my Ming Dynasty will also be this one."

The closer they got to Laizhou, the more frightened Zhang Yan and Zhu Cihong became, through the curtain of the carriage, what they saw and what they saw, compared to the Jingshi, were completely two concepts, all the villages were neat and orderly brick and stone houses, and the people in the fields were not as lifeless as Beizhili, and the carriage they were riding in actually had no bumpy feeling in the process of driving.

"The Queen Mother, the so-called want to get rich, first build the road, only the road is open, the people's harvest can be better transported, so when the prime minister was the governor of Shandong, he mobilized the people of Leyden to build this cement road, this road is not afraid of rain and snow, and the vehicle transportation is also very convenient.

"Uh...... What the prime minister said is true! ”

Zhang Yan slowly lowered the car curtain, and knew that she was the queen of the apocalypse, and she was not ignorant of national affairs, she knew that if Li Xingzhi only relied on force, then I am afraid that she could only succeed for a while, but now it seems that Li Xingzhi is no worse than martial arts in terms of cultural governance, and in just three years, she will restore the desolate population of Lydon to a good place, which makes her heart can't help but beat the drum.

After resting overnight in Laizhou, the car continued to drive, and after the Zhaoyuan Manufacturing Bureau, it was to enter Dengzhou Penglai Pavilion.

"Queen Mother, this palace is the place where His Royal Highness King De asked for immortals, although it is not as magnificent as the Forbidden City, but it is also elegant, according to the views of the ministers, how about you cultivate yourself here? As for His Royal Highness the Prince, he can live in a side hall, and all the food and clothing are available, and the minister has instructed Qian Tianxi, the governor of Shandong, to dispatch it in one. ”

After escorting the car to climb the mountain, Li Xingzhi saluted Zhang Yan and Zhu Cihong, and wanted to retire.

"Don't worry, what the former prime minister said about the king is still serious?"

Li Xingzhi just wanted to leave, but Zhu Cihong called him.

"What, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has thought about where to go to the domain?"

Li Xingzhi paused, then turned his head and glanced at Zhu Cihong.

"I take the sun and the moon as the flag, and the place where the sun lives, Fusang, although the prime minister is named Mingchen, but in fact it is a mouth with Tianxian, the palace is expected to be good, once Li Zicheng is exterminated, the prime minister is afraid that he will be called the king, then the heaven and the earth will be overturned, and the palace is deeply afraid that the emperor's three-hundred-year foundation will be destroyed, so he intends to feudalize the country, I don't know if the prime minister agrees?"

Like Chongzhen, Zhu Cihong is not a cowardly person, and he knows the truth of a son of heaven and a courtier, although Li Xingzhi said that he agreed to be a vassal in the country, but after the people took the Ming Dynasty, these former dynasty clans became the liquidation objects of the new dynasty, even if Li Xingzhi could tolerate it, what about the emperors of later generations? For the sake of the Zongmiao Society, Zhu Cihong still decided to go to sea to feudal the Japanese state.

Li Xingzhi said with a smile: "His Royal Highness said very much, Fusang Island was originally the inherent territory of our emperor, during the Hongwu period, I canonized the king of the Wa Kingdom, but the Japanese slaves did not read the court's kindness, and used the title of the emperor without permission, which is really tolerable, which is unbearable, after the prime minister exterminated Li Zicheng, he will be a teacher of the Wa Kingdom, but the prime minister thinks that after the prince lands, he can preside over the battle to capture Fusang. ”

Zhu Cihong laughed and said: "Prime Minister don't want to deceive the palace, at this time, does the palace dare to recruit troops rashly?" ”

"Sun Chuanting has soldiers, and the prime minister is still the same sentence, if he is willing to fight in a foreign land with the prince, the prime minister is not allowed, and in addition, the prime minister can also make Huang Degong fight with the prince."

Li Xingzhi smiled bitterly, Huang Degong is really a fucking stone in the pit, smelly and hard, the court has repeatedly decreed, this muddy ball is a push four, five or six, and he personally visited twice, but he was still unmoved, he can't kill or fight now, it's better to give it to Zhu Cihong, so that Huang Chuangzi in history can shine in the Wa Kingdom.

Zhang Yan was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "What the prime minister said is true, in this way, the handwritten letter of the palace is handed over to Sun Du, and he will definitely come by order for the sake of the first emperor." ”

Don't be in a hurry about this matter, two days later, the prime minister will go to Jiaoao Wharf to confirm the carrying capacity of the imperial court sailors, and besides, the prime minister and Li Zicheng are about to fight, this will not take care of this matter, and after Li Zicheng is eliminated, the prime minister will go to the country.
