Half a pillar of incense kung fu, the palace door is still open, but a sedan chair far away through the fog is too big, Wang Qiu squinted his eyes to see that it is a Lanni sedan chair, the two sedan chair men came slowly, the sedan chair squeaked and swayed, after a while, the sedan chair was slowly put down, the sedan curtain was opened, and it was the prince and the prince Zhao Zhili who came out, Zhao Zhili held a book, and drilled out of the sedan chair with a solemn face, obviously also saw Wang Qiu, the two were taken care of, so they nodded to each other.

"Uncle Guo came early, it seems that it is not yet the time to go to court." Wang Qiu greeted him and accosted him, and the generals behind him also quieted down, the civil and military affairs, the Ming Dynasty used to implement the policy of suppressing the military with literature, and now although the status of the military attache has been improved, but in front of the civil officials, he always feels that he is so short, not to mention that the person in front of him is the father-in-law of the current queen and the uncle of the prince, so naturally no one is making a noise.

Zhao Zhili nodded: "Zhao, like General Wang, is here to welcome the prince out of the palace. ”

Wang Qiu's expression was suffocated, and his smiling face suddenly stiffened: "What? Uncle Guo also went to the barracks for training? ”

Zhao Zhili received the news from the harem last night, saying that the prince was going to the barracks for morning exercises, and then several good officials came to visit, many people had a concern about the prince sent to the barracks, on the surface just let the prince exercise, but it also showed the emperor's intention to emphasize martial arts, not to mention that the prince is young, and it is inevitable that there will be bumps and bumps with those martial artists, so everyone discussed all night, or decided to let Zhao Zhili come forward, accompanied by Zhao Zhili, Zhao Zhili naturally agreed, and came early in the morning.

Wang Qiu was crying and laughing, but he was helpless, so he had to say dryly: "It's okay to have Uncle Guo here, and it will save us rough people who don't know how to take care of it." ”

At this time, the palace gate slowly opened, and several half-awake eunuchs pushed open the palace gate together, followed by a team of general Dahan of the Zhenfu Division lined up.

Wang Qiu and Zhao Zhi ended their conversation and stood solemnly by the palace gate, and after a while, a voice finally came from the palace wall: "The queen has arrived." ”

There was a series of people and horses in the palace, hugging the big red _ ride out, sitting under the canopy was Qu Ci wearing a phoenix robe and Zhu Hai, and Zhu Ciyan was lying in Qu Ci's arms, half-asleep and half-awake with his eyes closed, sometimes wrinkling his nose and obviously not waking up yet.

"Zhao Zhili greets Feng Jia, Niang Niang is a thousand years old." Zhao Zhili doesn't have to kneel, and a slight bow is considered a salute.

"Congratulations to the mother for a thousand years." With Wang Qiu's first cadre, the officials roared together with a roar and knelt down together.

The sound was like a bolt from the blue in the quiet morning. Qu Ci and a group of palace people were taken aback. Even Zhu Ciyan in his arms woke up. When I opened my eyes, I saw a row of people wearing leather armor in front of me. A mighty warrior in full body uniform. I can't help but be amazed. Suddenly he got up in good spirits, broke free from his mother's embrace, and grimaced at Wang Qiu.

Qu Ci first asked Zhao Zhili in surprise: "Father." Early in the morning. How did you get up? ”

Zhao Zhili said seriously: "Go back to your mother." Weichen is the prince and the prince. According to the etiquette system. has the responsibility of protecting the prince. Therefore. The prince went out of the palace to practice. Wechen should be accompanied by his dedication to his duties.

”

Qu Ci was originally a little worried. She's a woman, after all. I always feel that the martial artists in the barracks are too careless. At this time, I saw my father accompanying me. He nodded slightly, "Father is thoughtful." That's right. Yan'er entrusted it to her father and General Wang. ”

Feng Yu was put down, Qu Ci personally carried Zhu Ciyan to the ground, Zhu Ciyan was also restless, immediately broke away from his mother's hand, and shook it in the direction of Wang Qiu step by step, boys always love to fight and kill, now Zhu Ciyan saw dozens of burly soldiers in uniform, naturally admired, a pair of small eyes around Wang Qiu's waist of the long sword and short gun, but afraid of his mother and uncle on the side, dare to be presumptuous.

"The last general will live up to the trust of the emperor and Niangniang, please feel at ease that it is not too early, and the last general will take the prince with Lord Zhao."

The scarlet scar on Wang Qiu's face was very scary, and the scar at the corner of his mouth twitched when he spoke, so that Qu Ci and the palace people on the side did not dare to look at it, Qu Ci bowed slightly: "That is the case, there is General Lao, Yan'er is still young and ignorant, General Wang takes good care of it." Qu Ci paused here, and then lightly opened his teeth, and seemed to have made up his mind: "If there is something wrong with Yan'er, the general can Haihan naturally try his best to Haihan, if he does not change after repeated teachings, he must also be punished slightly, the emperor's meaning is in the holy decree, the general has already understood, and the palace does not need to be detailed." ”

"The last will understand." Wang Qiu nodded solemnly, with the meaning of a military order, Qu Ci reluctantly glanced at Zhu Ciyan, who was 'heartless and lungless', and then got on the chariot and returned to the palace.

"Brothers, help the prince to get into the car." Wang Qiu saw that Feng drove away, so he waved his hand, and several people rushed up, picked up Zhu Ciyan, and helped him into the carriage. Zhao Zhili on the side was full of taste, he originally hoped that the prince would sit in a sedan chair, but he had already cut it first, so he had to go back to the sedan chair, waved to the coachman, and signaled to pick up the sedan chair.

At this time, it was just two o'clock, it was still very early, there were no bystanders on the street, dozens of military men rode horses, hugged a carriage, and walked very fast, and a sedan chair behind him obviously fell a lot, fortunately, the carriage in front of it stopped and stopped, and it was necessary to wait for a while, so that Zhao Zhili behind him felt that it was not a way to go on like this, and he would have to change a carriage early tomorrow morning.

The carriage is paved with soft cushions, and there is a thick blanket under the feet, the carriage is very large, in order to take care of it, Wang Qiu also sits in the carriage to support, I am afraid that this little prince will not be able to bump in the carriage all of a sudden, Zhu Ciyan stood on the cushion, and asked Wang Qiu to lift the curtain to look at the street scene outside the car, and then turned around and asked Wang Qiu to show him his short gun, Wang Qiu didn't mind, the short gun had already been powdered, so he was not afraid of going off, Zhu Ciyan played with this for a while. The heavy guy lost interest, and pointed to the long sword hanging from Wang Qiu's waist: "Oh, General Wang, I want that." ”

Wang Qiu immediately put on a wry smile, the sword can't be used by this little guy, he can't afford something wrong, so he immediately changed the topic and said: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, this thing is not fun, let's play with a short gun." ”

Zhu Ciyan's small mouth was already pursed, and he wrinkled his nose: "I want a sword." ”

Wang Qiu had already begun to scratch his head, and hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, when I return to the camp, I will make you the best sword, the sword is too heavy, you are still young, you can't afford it." ”

Zhu Ciyan broke into tears at this time

Dropping the mist in the waves, he said, "I want to ride a horse." ”

"Horseback riding?" Wang Qiu's head grew up all of a sudden, such a big person went to learn to ride a horse, if he fell, he didn't say that the emperor wanted to deal with him, and he couldn't pass the queen's level, and that Zhao Zhili, I'm afraid that he might not say a word if he was eaten alive, and shook his head again and again: "No, no, my prince, now I have been riding horses from time to time, and those who ride horses during the war die the fastest, not to mention that you are still young If you are like this, how will I treat you?" Tsk, okay, okay, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is wise and martial, and naturally knows the good intentions of the last general. Wang Qiu didn't dare to speak anymore, although Zhu Ciyan's mouth was already high, he pretended not to see it.

Soon, the guards camp arrived at the fall of the horse, the sedan chair, Wang Qiu hugged Zhu Ciyan down, the camp had already lined up the line, all straightened their chests and waited for the review, when Wang Qiu carried the prince to the camp gate, many people couldn't help but be disappointed, the brothers tossed all night originally wanted His Royal Highness the prince to see the military prestige of the guards, but I didn't think that the prince was a child wearing open crotch pants, what children know, many people's momentum couldn't help but be a little shorter.

Wang Qiu also felt that the night was in vain, and roared: "Each camp and thousands of households should take people to run in the morning." ”

Everyone dispersed in a hurry, went back to the barracks, put on their marching bags, brought fire cymbals, and lined up to run to the school yard.

Wang Qiu didn't dare to slack off the emperor's intention to bring the prince to practice, although the prince was young but what to do and what to do, he put the prince down: "His Royal Highness the prince, from now on, at this hour every day, I and Vice General Wang, Vice General Liu, the three of you take turns to supervise your practice, this is the emperor's meaning, Wang is on order, if there is an offense, you don't have to be surprised." After speaking, he glanced at the two lieutenant generals: "You go and supervise the drills of each battalion first, and I will teach the prince on the first day." ”

The two lieutenants bowed and left.

Wang Qiu hehehe: "Let's run with the last general, go, go to the grass over there." ”

Zhu Ciyan began to feel fresh, and when she saw Wang Qiu jogging over there, she also followed along, staggeringly following.

There is a lawn on the side of the field, which has been carefully repaired by Wang Qiu, and someone has pounced on an extra layer of rice stalks overnight to remove all the sand and stones, even if he falls, he is not afraid of injury.

Zhu Ciyan was too suffocated in the palace, seeing everything fresh, seeing the ant-like soldiers jogging on the school field on the side, he also ran along, fell down several times, and scared Zhao Zhili behind him to run over to help, but Zhu Ciyan shook his head and didn't care, but felt very excited.

Since then, Zhu Ciyan has never imagined that before he became an adult, whether it was wind, rain or snow, he spent every morning here. …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

A big ship slowly docked at the port of Xinchengdu, the military officials on the pier came to greet him, the siege of Xinchengdu has been lifted, and the situation in the East Indies has also stabilized, although the Haidu army is still strong, and the army of King Sunk is still organizing defense on the border, but more is the envoys of both sides mediating back and forth, and some Han people in the city have also begun to relax and return to the land outside the city.

The big ship got on the sampan and erected it on the wharf, and the civil and military officials on the wharf immediately rushed up, and the first to come down was naturally Yang Side, who was ordered to work in the army, at this time wearing a clean official uniform, smiling and greeting the civil and military officials on the wharf, and then carefully got off the sampan, and then there was the honor guard attaché of the Qin Cha, this time Yang Side's visit was a policy issue related to the East Indies, so many people had an extra layer of expectations, whether it was war or peace, how many benefits could be obtained from war, and how many benefits could be extorted, which all needed to be measured by the imperial court. There are also Han people who have suffered losses will also receive some compensation, and these things will naturally fall on Yang Side.

At the gate of the city, there were already some Han landlords who drove hundreds of miles to listen to the news here, martial law also began in the city, the officials hugged Yang Side into the city, straight into the governor's yamen, the governor Wang Jinwang and Zhang Youde accompanied Yang Side, sat down in the hall of the governor's yamen in the new cluster, the two people were the most anxious to listen to the tone of the Qincha scholars, Wang Jinwang most wanted to know the compensation of the imperial court to the local Han people, a few days ago many Han landlords whose crops were trampled by barbarians came to visit, all for this, and Zhang Youde wants to know what the imperial court means is peace, so he can make preparations.

Everyone took a slow sip of tea with a teacup and looked in, and then led the topic to the place they cared about: "Lord Yang, a few days ago, the newspaper from Nanjing said that the household department has drawn up a policy to compensate the displaced people, I wonder if it is true?" If there is, presumably Lord Yang already has a charter. ”

Yang Side blew the tea foam, looked up with a smile and said: "The household department has discussed, these silver are naturally not from the treasury, but by the barbarian king, as for the amount of compensation, this lord was ordered to work the army this time, and the emperor also gave Yang another task is to negotiate with the barbarian king, all in all, the more you talk, the amount of this compensation can be appropriately higher, if you talk less, please ask the people here to suffer some losses, if you can't talk about it, you will have to go out of the horse." Yang Side's eyes fell on Zhang Youde.

Zhang Youde leaned over: "Lord Yang means that there are peace talks?" ”

Yang Side smiled slowly: "It's not all about talking, first fight and then talk or talk first and then fight, in short, the emperor means to fight to promote talk, the harder Lord Zhang beats, the less resistance the old man will naturally have when he talks." ”

Zhang Youde grinned: "This is very fresh, don't worry, the last general and the 30,000 soldiers of the Haidu Legion will fight or make peace, it will all depend on your lordship's orders." ”

Yang Side said: "Let's not talk about this for the time being, are the princes of the two barbarian kings still there?" Lord Ben wants to meet them. ”

Zhang Youde said: "The last general will arrange it." After speaking, he walked out of the yatang without any delay.

Yang Side looked at Wang Jinwang again: "Lord Wang, you have worked hard for the loss of the entire New Sichuan, and you will report it in a few days." ”

Wang Jinwang said: "These subordinates have already made statistics, and they will be sent to the adults for reference later." ”

Yang Side nodded: "Are there any casualties among the Han people who migrated over?" ”

"Yes." Wang Jinwang took a sip of tea: "More than a dozen were captured by the barbarians and their whereabouts are still unknown, two were injured when they fled into the city, and one pregnant woman was in a hurry

A daughter was born early, and in addition, seven Han Chinese were stoned when the barbarians attacked the city

Yang Side had a plan in his heart, so he began to sort out his thoughts, and the yatang immediately quieted down for a while, Zhang Youde led seven or eight soldiers to escort two Indian princes in, and the two of them were well taken care of, although the clothes were still dirty, after all, they were not abused, and there were also envoys who were dressed neatly in the costumes of a thousand households.

"Your Excellency will be the official envoy of the Thousand Households of the Colonial Legion, and I have come to translate your questioning, and I can ask if my lord has anything." Zhide saluted Yang Side.

Yang Side nodded at the envoy, and then his eyes looked at the two Indian princes: "Which one is the eldest prince?" Before coming, Yang Side had already read Zhang Youde's briefing, so he was not ignorant of the situation here, and he knew that it was the eldest prince Pandit who came to sue for peace this time.

Gendher muttered a few words to the two princes, and Pandit stepped forward and said, "Your Excellency, I am the eldest prince of King Sunk. ”

"The Celestial Empire has agreed to the royal father's request for peace, but the charter still needs to be agreed on from the beginning, can you negotiate on behalf of your father?" Yang Side sat in the hall and asked.

Pandit's face showed a little joy, anyway, things finally made some progress, he hesitated for a moment and nodded: "If the conditions are not too harsh, I think I can represent my father." ”

"That's good." Yang De's expression loosened a little: "Let's talk about what kind of peace talks you are willing to make." ”

Pandit was suddenly embarrassed, the negotiation is actually the same as doing business, whoever shows his hole cards first, who will occupy a passive position, but after all, people are the strong party, and they are already in a passive position, since he wants to ask, what can Pandit do, he meditated for a moment, and then said lately: "We are willing to make compensation to the Celestial Empire, fill the house we are in now with gold and silver, and withdraw from all the territories of the Celestial Empire, and declare themselves to the Celestial Empire, and will send a batch of rich tribute every year to the Emperor Your Majesty, my lord, how about it?" ”

Si De looked at this naïve prince with a sympathetic expression, and pouted: "The Celestial Empire is rich in products, will it take a fancy to your gold and silver?" Hmph, gold and silver are used to compensate for the damage of the war of the Celestial Empire, the loss of the people, and the money and food for sending troops, but how to compensate for the majesty of my Celestial Empire? And how will the lives of the thousands of dead and wounded colonial legionnaires be compensated? If we can't punish your country, wouldn't it be a joke for our Celestial Empire to raise millions of elites and train people who dare to die? ”

Pandit's words were drenched in sweat, and he understood that the Han Chinese official thought that the compensation plan he proposed was too low, but what did they want? Pandit realized something, but he didn't dare to say that this was the lifeblood of the Sunk royal family.

Yang Side's voice gradually softened: "; You can't be a master here, so let this official let you go back and tell your father that Da Ming needs half of his land and enough indemnity, if you don't agree, my Heavenly Dynasty lion can take it for himself and take them down. ”

The two princes were not allowed to say that a dozen soldiers had already cut off their hands and escorted them out of the palace.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

"What? That's what they really say? "King Sunk, whose face was obviously much older, blew his curly beard, and was furious, and in this beautiful palace, all the attendants, including Prince Pandit, who came in a hurry, did not even dare to come out of the air.

"The Han people are humiliating us, and I will never bow to them." King Sunk, who had returned to his territory, grew a little bolder, and let out a roar.

"Father, I think if we don't agree to their terms, maybe my dear brother ......," Pandit cautioned.

King Sunk closed his mouth and let out a long sigh: "This land was bought by our ancestors with blood, and if I exchange half of my territory for my son, then all the nobles will oppose it, this, Pandiet, I am sure you can understand." ”

Pandit nodded thoughtfully: "What if the Han army launches a provocation?" Father, we cannot defeat them, and their emperor may be the lord of kings, above the gods, as in the teachings of the East Indies, otherwise ......"

King Xunke did not speak with a blushing face, for this he had to admit that all his elites had been put in in two days, and the Han people did not seem to have anything to lose.

"So, my son, tell me, what are we going to do? You know, it's impossible to cut off half of our territory, and I think you know that better than I do. ”

Pandit nodded helplessly: "I think we should make two preparations, first of all, we must immediately send our envoys, hoping to bargain with the Han side, if we can reduce half of this price, maybe it will be acceptable." Secondly, we should mobilize and recruit all the people, issue them weapons, and propagate their evil, so as to ensure that we can protect ourselves in the event of future conflicts. ”

King Sunk nodded, and then his eyes suddenly lit up: "My Pandiet, I have an idea. ”

"Now the Han people think that we are preparing to surrender now, and their army must not be too prepared, what if at this time, we suddenly attack them again?"

When King Sunk said this, he immediately felt that he was extremely clever, and he couldn't help but get excited: "Yes, they thought that we would sit and die, and they thought that the heroic Marati people had been frightened, but we still have a breath, and we still have the strength to fight back, Pandiet, what do you think?" ”

Pandit frowned, he was frightened by the Han army, but at this time, his father was excited, he naturally didn't dare to pour any cold water, just said: "Father, I think we should be cautious, the strength of the Han people is beyond our imagination, if we anger them again, I'm afraid it will ......"
