I can level Liao in four years and Liao in five years, but if I want to transform the political institutions of the Ming Dynasty so that they are complete and more efficient, and move towards modernization, I am afraid that ten or twenty years will not be enough.

The palace maid approached to serve tea, interrupting the emperor's thoughts. He couldn't help but smile to himself, and his eyes returned to Queen Zhang Yan's face.

Zhang Yan was knowledgeable and interesting, and when she saw the emperor in a daze, she didn't bother, and when she saw the emperor cast her gaze, she smiled slightly and said, "The concubine went to Changchun Palace yesterday to see the two little princesses——"

Halfway through the words, Zhang Yan couldn't hold back her smile, covered her mouth with a silk handkerchief, and couldn't stop laughing.

The emperor also laughed and asked, "What's the new show for the two little girls to make the queen laugh like this?" ”

Zhang Yan finally managed to suppress her laughter, gasped and stabilized, and said with a smile: "The parrot raised by the emperor was given to Concubine Yu to relieve her boredom, right?" When the concubine went, the two little princesses were arguing with the birds. The birds have sharp teeth, and the little princess can't talk about it. ”

Zhu Youxiao blinked his eyes, imagining that the little girl who just knew how to jump words, quarreled with the parrot who was talking thief, how could she take advantage, I was afraid that she was angry and anxious, and she couldn't jump out of a word, or even cry wow, right?

Hahahaha, as soon as the ridiculous picture came out, the emperor couldn't help laughing, and wanted to see the two little girls eating deflated.

Besides, just talk, what better can you get by arguing with the parrot repeater? Haven't you heard the joke that the courier was stunned by the birds in the house?

Seeing that the emperor was laughing happily, Zhang Yan achieved her goal, so she accompanied her with a smiling face, her hand gently caressing her bulging belly, and she looked happy and satisfied.

It took a long time for the emperor to stop laughing, and his eyes moved to the queen's stomach with Zhang Yan's movements.

"I'm going to have a prince next year!" Zhu Youxiao raised his eyes, looked at the queen and said with a smile: "The boy is more naughty and fun than the girl." ”

Zhang Yan chuckled and said, "The emperor still looks at him?" How do you know that the concubine is not a girl? ”

Zhu Youxiao pretended to touch his chin and said, "As the saying goes: a girl dresses up as a mother. I think the queen is not as good-looking as before, isn't she just the boy she is pregnant? ”

Zhang Yan blinked her big eyes, frowned slightly, and said to herself: "Has it really become ugly?" I look in the mirror and feel the same way. ”

was originally a joke, but I didn't expect Zhang Yan to take it seriously. If you are in a bad mood, it is not good for pregnant women.

The emperor laughed and said, "The orb is still beautiful and moving, and I am amusing you." However, when it comes to giving birth to a male baby, I have a golden mouth, and when I say it, it is eight or nine and ten. ”

Although Zhang Yan was not completely relieved, she was also diverted from her thoughts. As the queen, she won the son in one fell swoop, it was a major event celebrated by the whole world, and she was happy in her heart, so she smiled and nodded, "The emperor is the Ninety-Five Supreme, so naturally whatever he says is what he says." ”

After a pause, Zhang Yan said with concern: "The emperor is diligent in political affairs, and the country is thriving. But you should also pay more attention to your body and don't work too hard. ”

Zhu Youxiao smiled, bent his arm to show it, although he couldn't see the muscles, he also gave people a very strong feeling, at least he felt so.

"I'm young and strong, and I'm not tired of some political affairs."

Zhang Yan smiled, reached out and took an orange, peeled it with her own hands, and carefully cleaned the white silk on it before handing it to the emperor.

Zhu Youxiao took it with a smile, separated it one by one, and fed it to the queen.

Zhang Yan's face was slightly red, and she couldn't bear to brush the emperor's care, so she opened her warm and red mouth, ate a few petals, and then pushed it to the emperor.

The emperor stuffed the remaining oranges into his mouth in one gulp, and the juice flowed out of the corners of his mouth, and the queen smiled and wiped him with a silk handkerchief.

Zhang Yan is too orthodox, she grew up reading "The Female Commandment", and most women in that era were like this. Including Concubine Wang Liang and Concubine Duan Chun, they are all similar styles.

It's not that he doesn't like it, but the emperor doesn't feel as relaxed as being with Yu'er, Li Chengcheng, and Fan Xiaohui. Of course, the emperor is very good to his own women, although he is biased, it is normal.

I am all they have, I am their heaven. Zhu Youxiao knew that whether it was a queen, a concubine, or a folk woman, the status of men in the family was the same.

Therefore, for them, Zhu Youxiao also has to live well. Although entering the palace, brocade clothes and jade food are indispensable. But the deep palace is lonely and cold, and there is not much difference from the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha.

Turning his face, Zhu Youxiao saw Wang Tiqian. Lao Wang didn't dare to come close to disturb, and was explaining something to a palace maid.

Shrugged helplessly, Zhu Youxiao knew that there was another military intelligence report. This is his rule, and at all times, it must be reported immediately and without delay.

Zhang Yan also saw it, and said with a smile: "State affairs are important, and the concubines will send them to the emperor." ”

"Moving around is also good for Baozhu's body." Zhu Youxiao stood up, stretched out his arms, let the queen take him, and walked out slowly.

"The slave and maid knock to see the emperor, and knock to see the queen Chitose." Wang Tiqian knelt down and kowtowed from a distance.

Zhang Yan nodded and said, "Princess, please get up." Qianqing Palace has to worry a lot, wait for the emperor, don't be tired to long live. ”

"Slaves and maids can be saved, Chitose can rest assured." Wang Tiqian hurriedly assured and stood aside.

The emperor patted the empress's hand lightly, walked away, and said, "Walk back, just exercise your body." ”

"Yes, yes." Wang Tiqian bowed deeply to the queen again, and then followed the emperor with small steps.

The emperor didn't ask what kind of military situation it was, if it was a secret performance, Wang Tiqian would not dare to peek if he had a hundred dares.

No matter how urgent the military situation is, there is no telegraph and telephone, and it will not delay anything when you go to the Qianqing Palace to see it again.

Liaodong's battle plan has been determined, there is no rash move, and there should be no big problem in advancing steadily and steadily and depleting Jiannu with powerful firepower.

The emperor just did his job, mobilized the largest number of ships to transport ammunition and supplies, and the Weapons and Gunpowder Bureau also worked overtime to produce and manufacture.

According to the emperor's deduction on the sand table, the combat power of the Ming army is stronger than wave by wave, and it will be more and more difficult for Jiannu to support.

When Jiannu was forced to rely on the city to hold on to survive, the Pingliao War was basically over. Jiannu, who sacrificed his own strengths and lost his field advantage, was not undefeated.

Back in the Qianqing Palace, after Zhu Youxiao sat down, Wang Tiqian presented the secret box.

With a sweep of his eyes, Zhu Youxiao was a little surprised, it turned out to be sent by Cao Zhenghua, the military intelligence department of Liaodong.

In the action against Liu Xingzuo, Cao Zhenghua made great contributions and was promoted to the Jinyi Wei Qianhu in charge of the Liaodong Military Intelligence Department.

The emperor tore off the seal, opened the box and took out the tantric music, unfolded it, and couldn't help but smile on his face.

It's really a tree, the war has not yet come to fruition, and there are already many people who are pessimistic and desperate, and they are not optimistic about the future of Jiannu.

The emperor pondered for a moment, picked up a pen and laid out paper, and wrote a royal approval to Cao Zhenghua.

This is a good start, and it will be a big blow to the morale of Jiannu's people. Recruiting and rebelling is a very ancient and effective method.
