In August of the fifteenth year of orthodoxy, the Northern Expedition was triumphant.

The war lasted five months, and the four lines of soldiers and horses of the imperial court attacked at the same time, swept across the desert, and completely wiped out the Northern Yuan forces.

The Chinese army defeated Warat head-on, the Eastern Route Army drove the remnants of the Tatars to the north of the Nan River, and the Western Route Army recovered Hami.

This is a feat that will go down in history!

The capital had long been shocked, and when he learned that the emperor was triumphant, Zhu Qiyu, the king of servants, led hundreds of civil and military officials out of the city for thirty miles.

This is the second time to drive it, and it can be regarded as a familiar road.

Zhu Qizhen's royal chariot entered the city from Anding Gate, and was cheered by the people of the city...... The unexpected happened!

Sou!

A feather arrow broke through the air and flew straight towards Zhu Qizhen on the tall horse!

It happened so suddenly, and everyone didn't expect that someone was secretly ambushing, ready to assassinate the king!

Fan Zhong didn't have time to react, so he had to shout: "Your Majesty, be careful!" ”

Zhu Qizhen subconsciously turned to one side, and the feather arrow flew past the door in front of him, nailing it to the door plaque of the shop on the street.

"Escort, escort!"

Fan Zhong led the guards and gathered tightly around Zhu Qizhen.

Yuan Bin took the brocade guard and rushed towards the place where the arrow flew away.

It was a restaurant, and the arrow flew out of the window on the third floor.

Zhu Qizhen came back to his senses, his back was full of cold sweat.

In broad daylight, someone actually assassinated!

What's the situation?

The crowd was already panicked, the scene was very chaotic, Li Zhen rode forward, raised his knife, and shouted: "All the people, squat!" ”

This voice was very good, and the people on the side of the road squatted down one after another, burying their heads low.

In this way, if there are gangsters mixed in, they can only squat down and cannot continue to carry out assassination operations.

"Walking on the Stars"

The panic was brought under control for the time being.

On the other side, Yuan Bin had already come out of the restaurant with someone.

Behind him, he saw two brocade guards carrying a man in black, and the man in black was lying on his stomach, and it seemed that he was an assassin.

"Your Majesty, the assassin has been caught!"

Yuan Bin carried a crossbow in his hand and a bloody dagger.

Zhu Qizhen frowned and said, "What's going on?" ”

Yuan Bin replied: "The assassin has already committed suicide when he saw that the assassination failed!" ”

At this time, Zhu Qizhen suddenly felt a familiar face in the crowd, looking at him.

He followed his gaze, and the two looked at each other, and the other shook his head slightly, and then continued to lower his head.

Absolute Voiceguard, Yang Zhicong!

Zhu Qizhen seemed to realize something, and hurriedly asked, "What about the assassin, bring it here!" ”

Yuan Bin waved his hand, and the two people behind him stepped forward with the assassin.

Zhu Qizhen took a look at it, and his heart was suddenly shocked.

The person was dressed in black, had a thin build, and was clearly a woman.

Looking at his face again, it turned out to be the eighteenth spy he had secretly cultivated, Song Gu regretted!

He hurriedly asked, "Is it dead?" ”

Yuan Bin replied: "The wound is in the abdomen, and there is still breath!" ”

"Quick, go back to the palace immediately, and order the imperial doctor to do his best to treat her, I want her to live!"

"Yes!"

Yuan Bin waved his hand, and the two people behind him picked up Song Gu Xi and ran towards the palace.

At this time, Jinyiwei, Shuntianfu, and Wucheng Soldiers and Horses were all dispatched, and the Beijing Division was all under martial law.

Zhu Qiyu, who was accompanying Zhu Qizhen, was pale and didn't know what to do.

The last time the emperor returned from the expedition, he caught up with Cao Jixiang's birdmen and plotted to rebel.

Today is even more excessive, directly to be a street assassin, I am a prisoner, it is really hard to say!

Zhu Qizhen had a cold face and said, "Go back to the palace!" ”

The guards opened the way, the imperial chariot entered the palace gate, and Fan Zhong said to the civil and military officials behind him: "The emperor has a decree, and the king of Yu, the king of Jing'an County, the cabinet scholars, and the Yin of the Shuntian Mansion will go to the Fengtian Palace to discuss matters!" ”

The civil and military officials were silent, and those who were named were disgraced and went to the Fengtian Temple.

Zhu Qizhen sat on the dragon chair, his face extremely ugly.

Such a big victory, the triumphant division, was treated like this!

Zhu Qiyu took the lead in kneeling down and said: "My brother is dead, please punish the emperor!" ”

The others also knelt behind Zhu Qiyu one after another, and they didn't dare to come out.

Zhu Qizhen said slowly: "Don't die first, let's talk about it, what's going on?" ”

"It's my brother...... Brother...... Neglect ......"

Zhu Qiyu was in a cold sweat, but he didn't know what to say.

Zhang Fu followed and said: "The old minister assisted the king of the country, and he didn't notice that someone had assassinated him in advance, it was the old minister's dereliction of duty, please punish the emperor!" ”

Cao Nai and others also expressed their willingness to bear the punishment.

Zhu Qizhen waved his hand and said, "Nonsense is free, Yuan Bin!" ”

"The minister is here!"

"This matter will be handed over to Jinyi Wei for thorough investigation, and the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division and Shuntian Mansion will fully cooperate!"

"Yes!"

Zhu Qizhen sighed heavily and said, "I didn't know how to do it to the army of hundreds of thousands, but I didn't expect that an assassin with a crossbow arrow almost killed me!" ”

Zhu Qiyu and the others had bitter faces and were speechless.

"Okay, this matter has its own Jinyi guard to investigate!"

Zhu Qizhen waved his hand and said with an irritated expression: "King Yu, you come and talk about things in the capital!" ”

"Yes!"

Zhu Qiyu swallowed his saliva, and then said: "During the period of the emperor's personal conquest, the affairs of the Beijing division were resolved through consultation between the ministers, the king of Jing'an County, and the cabinet princes. First, the Yellow River in Huai'an Prefecture burst its embankment, and Wang Yonghe, the left waiter of the Ministry of Works, went to control the water, and Wang Shilang worked with the servant husband regardless of his personal safety, leading the people to plug the mouth, build the embankment, and repair the embankment, successfully avoiding the expansion of the disaster. Second, there is a large-scale drought in Kaifeng, Henan Province......"

Zhu Qizhen listened to them one by one, floods, droughts, and locust plagues...... Fortunately, this year's treasury is abundant, and some places have been affected by disasters, and most of the disasters can be solved with direct funding from the imperial court.

"Sixth, the coastal areas of Zhejiang and Fujian are seriously plagued, and the king of Jing'an County proposed to install Japanese guards in Ningbo and Fuzhou to resist the invasion of Japanese ......"

"Wait a minute!"

Zhu Qizhen suddenly interrupted him and asked, "The problem is serious, what kind of serious law is it, let's talk about it specifically!" ”

Zhu Qiyu replied: "On June 12, the Japanese invaders landed in Fuzhou, looted and left. On July 30, the Japanese invaders landed in Ningbo and plundered the people along the coast, and Xu Chengzong, the garrison of Nanjing and the Duke of Wei, learned the news and immediately sent troops to quell the invaders, and the thieves knew that they were invincible and fled back to the sea. During this period, in Taizhou, Quanzhou and other places, there was also news of small-scale raids. ”

Zhu Qizhen thought for a while and said, "Put it in advance with the equipment and guards, I have my own plans, you continue!" ”

"Yes!"

Zhu Qiyu continued to report, but Zhu Qizhen couldn't listen anymore, and was full of thoughts about the Japanese Kou.

Mobei is calm, the Ming Dynasty has no worries, and the next thing is the great voyage.

At this time, Columbus had not yet been born, and he still had Zheng He's old team that went to the West, whether it was navigation technology or treasure ship configuration, it was only better than the Western fleet.

It is imminent to open the sea!
