Just when Aachen was in chaos, Zhu Zhanyan had already left the whirlpool stirred up by him and set foot on the way home.

In fact, if it is more compact, Zhu Zhanyan will be able to win the Holy Roman Empire this year, but in this way, the consumption may be much greater.

In the end, as the battle line became longer and longer, Zhu Zhanyan decided to be more conservative.

Besides, after the second defeat in Vienna, the Holy Roman Empire may not be able to organize any effective offensive.

Therefore, Zhu Zhan Yan still decided to temporarily let the Holy Roman Empire go for a winter, and wait for the spring of next year to solve them, and then he could also turn to the battlefield of the French Kingdom.

"His Royal Highness."

Zhu Zhan Yan set out from Rome and went to the Suez area to rest and replenish, and Mu Ang, who had been stationed in the Suez area, hurriedly greeted Zhu Zhan after hearing about Zhu Zhan's arrival.

"Where's Second Uncle Mu?" Zhu Zhanyan glanced at the Suez area, which had been built in a decent manner, but he didn't want to go in, so he stood at the pier and looked at Mu Ang and asked.

"His Royal Highness Hui Shizi, because in the past two years, the Suez region has become a busy trade route, and the loot that our Ming Dynasty transported back to Xiangzhou from Europe is also here, which has caused some people in North Africa to be ready to move."

"My brother thinks that if he goes on like this, something may happen, so he takes people to patrol there every once in a while, and even attacks some small countries or cities to achieve the effect of deterrence."

"Oh?" Zhu Zhanyan's brows furrowed.

He doesn't really have much thought about Africa, at least not for the time being.

After all, in the history of human civilization, in addition to the Central Plains, only Europe is relatively outstanding, and the situation pattern of later generations can be regarded as illustrating this.

Therefore, Zhu Zhanyan chose to destroy Europe first, and the remaining places that are destined to have little achievements in science and technology will be left for later and slowly solved.

But I didn't expect that some people are not very strong, but they are not small.

"Go back and tell Second Uncle Mu that if you want to make an example of the chickens and monkeys, you can first take the Burgi Dynasty, which is closest to the Suez region."

"This ......" Mu Ang was a little hesitant when he heard this, because he couldn't figure out Zhu Zhanyan's thoughts.

"Your Royal Highness, do you have any ideas?"

"Nothing." Zhu Zhanyan shook his head slightly.

"There are some things that should be done or still have to be done, just like Chen Jikuo's Dayue Kingdom at the beginning, if you don't solve it early, he will sooner or later disgust you like a toad."

"Tell Second Uncle Mu that as long as it doesn't affect the supply transportation, we can properly transfer troops to the past, and now we are not worried that the enemy will block our supplies."

"Moreover, I can give Second Uncle Mu a certain right to let the Xiangzhou Mansion send you some additional supplies, including but not limited to white phosphorus eggs and fire oil bombs."

"Yes!" Mu Ang was stunned when he heard this, and then responded very firmly.

Since Zhu Zhan Yan said so, it proves that Zhu Zhan Yan has this idea, although it is very likely that he has the idea of holding the grass and beating the rabbit by the way, but the direction is determined.

"That's right......" Looking at the soldiers coming and going, Zhu Zhanyan's expression was a little confused, but a little firm.

"Tell Second Uncle Mu that since you have already chosen the direction, don't hesitate."

"The ending is often unacceptable, but fate usually doesn't give superfluous options."

"That's what you are, and so am I."

After speaking, Zhu Zhanyan turned around and returned to the boat.

He didn't plan to stay here, but he was just going to resupply here and set off again, after all, such an arrangement was already very hasty for him.

Today's remarks can be regarded as his feelings.

From the eighth year of Yongle to the first year of orthodoxy today, he Zhu Zhanyan can be said to be supported by 10,000 people, but he has always been alone.

Originally, he and Emperor Taizong had the same idea, preparing to finish the battle of three generations by himself, leaving a safe enough space for future generations to grow up slowly.

But now he has discovered that a person's strength is limited after all, and a person's energy is also limited.

He can guarantee that the three generations of the Ming Dynasty are safe, but he can't guarantee more.

What he needs is more recognition, and even future generations who can inherit his ideas.

……

Suncheonfu, Imperial Palace, Inshou Palace.

Unlike the calm of the past, today's palace is full of hectic, even panicked.

In particular, Renshou Palace can be said to be intimidating and intimidating.

At the gate of Renshou Palace, a group of guards wearing armor and knives made people shudder, and the palace was full of busy palace maids, all of whom lowered their heads and focused on the things in their hands, and they didn't dare to take a breath.

All of this is only because the princess of the current prince of King Wu began to have labor pains at the end of the day, that is, before dawn.

The princess of King Wu is about to give birth! King Wu's lineage is about to be later!

Even before dawn, the news quickly spread throughout the entire palace, making the entire palace move, and even rumors came from outside the palace.

When they received the news, almost everyone, no matter which side of the person, had their hearts lifted to their throats in an instant.

The people of the Wu Wang family are worried about what accidents will happen to the birth of the concubine of the Wu Wang family, and the enemies of the Wu Wang family are praying for some accidents, or that a girl is born, not a boy who can inherit the family business.

Similarly, there is also a tense atmosphere within the Wu Wang lineage.

Renshou Palace, and even the entire palace, the security work was taken over by King Wu's guards, and at this time, Zhu Gaoxu had completely lost the deep hiding of the past, and directly took over the entire palace strongly.

And in this palace, it is the Inshou Palace with the highest security level.

In addition, whether it is the midwife who delivers the baby or the palace maid who makes a hand, and even the imperial doctor who waits on the side in case there is any accident during the delivery process, they are all strictly screened.

All of them will go through a strict body search before entering Renshou Palace, even the silver needles of the imperial physician are not allowed to be brought, and only a few imperial physicians who have been working for King Wu's lineage have privileges.

In the courtyard of the harem of Renshou Palace, although it was already a severe winter, Zhu Gaoxu sat in the pavilion as if he didn't realize it, waiting for first-hand news.

His wife, Princess Wu, is different from him, because she is a woman, so Princess Wu has been pacing outside the delivery room.

The security work is very good, there are no bloody plots such as assassinations, and as the princess of King Wu, she is also the person who gave birth to the next generation for King Wu's lineage, and she is also the top in the world in terms of medical and health on weekdays.

There was no assassination, no dystocia, a mediocre production process, and with a cry, a new life came into the world.

"Congratulations to the princess! Congratulations to the princess! The princess gave birth to a little son! ”

Because it was winter, the midwife did not come out with the child in her arms to say goodbye, but came out alone.

"Someone!"

Princess Wu looked at her husband who had stood up in the courtyard, then at the midwife in front of her, and finally looked inside the delivery room through the door opened by the midwife.

beckoned, and a team of people dressed as palace maids appeared from the side of the hall and stood behind Princess Wu.

"Go ahead."

"Yes!"

The voices of those palace maids were not at all gentle and soft like ordinary palace maids, but there was a sense of perseverance.

Soon, the delivery room was filled with these palace maids, and all the original palace maids were replaced, leaving only a few midwives tremblingly dealing with post-childbirth matters.

In fact, whether it is the original palace maid or the current palace maid, they are all similar to the existence of dead soldiers, but the child born by Hu Shanshu is a boy and a future child, and the situation is completely different.

Although he made up his mind that the emperor did not dare to risk the risk of King Wu turning his face to hurt this child, he said that aging is good, and the heart of guarding against people is indispensable.

"How? Are you okay? After the midwife cleaned up, Princess Wu was the first to enter the delivery room.

first went to see his grandson, and then walked to Hu Shanshu's side.

"After returning to my mother, it's okay." Hu Shanshu was a little weak, but she was not bad, at least she was still very sober, and even hugged her child for a while.

"Let's go rest first." The treatment of the daughter-in-law who gave birth to a boy is completely different from that of a daughter-in-law who has no heirs, not that Princess Wu's attitude is too realistic, but for this era, this kind of patriarchy is the reality.

"Zhan Yan is already on his way back, half a month soon, a month slow, how can he come back."

"I have sent someone to take your parents and sisters to the Wu Palace, you can rest in peace."

"Thank you, Mother." Hu Shanshu's eyes lit up, but she didn't last long before she became a little dim, and her eyelids began to fight uncontrollably.

In this era, giving birth to a child is tantamount to walking in a ghost gate for women, and it is difficult to give birth...... There are even those who die after a normal birth.

Hu Shanshu is very lucky, the child's fetal position is very positive, there is no umbilical cord around the neck and other phenomena, and her production process is also very smooth, but the production is extremely physical and energy-consuming.

Watching her daughter-in-law being carried to the next room in a soft sedan chair by the palace maid, Princess Wu nodded to the two maids behind her, and then left the delivery room.

Those two maids were the maids who had been with her since she became the princess of Han, and they had never left her for half a step, but now, Princess Wu was willing to let these two maids who were the last line of defense to ensure her safety.

Coming to the pavilion in the courtyard, Princess Wu showed a reassuring smile to her husband.

"Don't worry, I just went in to see it, the mother and son are safe, and the child is okay with Shanshu."

"Well, it's fine." Although he had known it for a long time, when he heard his wife say it in person, Zhu Gaoxu was completely relieved.

"However, although there is a high probability that there will be no accidents, we still have to be vigilant, I will transfer two more guards for you when I go back, and Qingfeng Mingyue will temporarily let them follow the children."

"Hmm." Princess Wu nodded, she thought the same thing.

"The child's name ......"

"Wait for Zhan Yan to come back." Zhu Gaoxu smiled and turned around and walked towards his courtyard.
