Inside the garden pavilion.

On the stone table is a plate of lychees and apricots.

Xu Miaojin put her hand on her cheek, quietly not knowing what she was thinking.

Zhu Yunxi glanced at her and ate apricots by herself.

The two didn't have much to say.

Zhu Yunxi only thinks that she is the sister of the two worldly friends.

Although it looks beautiful, it is too small after all, and it can be considered after a few years of development.

Xu Miaojin looked at him: "Do you like to eat this mountain apricot?" ”

Zhu Yunxi said while eating: "I don't like it, the mountain apricot has the effect of quenching thirst, and it tastes juicy and sweet." ”

Xu Miaojin pointed to the lychee: "The lychee is also sweet and juicy, why don't you eat it?" ”

A woman with a lot of thoughts always likes to get tangled in problems.

Zhu Yunxi said: "It's already past the ripening season of lychees, and I'm afraid this lychee is not fresh." ”

"It's fresh, it's Huaizhi."

Speaking of food, Xu Miaojin's words are obviously more.

"You haven't answered yet, am I handsome?"

Zhu Yunxi seemed very persistent, and seemed to be not very confident in his appearance.

"You really want to hear it?"

"Well, you say."

Xu Miaojin said: "I heard in Beijing that the emperor's grandson has fangs on his face and is vicious, and he looks very handsome when he sees it today." ”

It must have been that I cut so many people in Jingshi and scared the little girl.

Zhu Yunxi was speechless for a while.

The two were silent.

After a long time, Xu Miaojin suddenly asked, "Why did you kill someone?" ”

Zhu Yunxi said: "I won't kill it now." ”

“......”

Xu Miaojin blinked his eyes widely: "I heard them say, you killed a commander of the capital division in Taiyuan half a month ago, is it true?" ”

"Well, there was this, it was hot and irritable at the time, and I accidentally killed him."

Zhu Yunxi didn't want the little girl's thoughts to be complicated.

What makes him unhappy is that now even women know that the imperial grandson likes to kill.

Xu Miaojin was silent and muttered: "You think I'm small, so you make up words to lie to me?" ”

She looked at Zhu Yunxi with both eyes, as if she was dissatisfied.

Zhu Yunxi didn't explain, he didn't have the habit of explaining to people.

Xu Miaojin asked again: "I heard the king say that you were very powerful when you were studying in the main hall, and you could chant poetry in three steps, and even the champion Huang Zicheng was not your opponent, is it true?" ”

It's really interesting to act as a king! Actually promoting my deeds behind my back!

Zhu Yunxi was very useful, and nodded implicitly: "There is such a thing." ”

Xu Miaojin said seriously: "You are so good at writing, why do you still like to kill?" Can't you reason with them? ”

Zhu Yunxi said lightly: "I am a person who is not good at expression, and I like to use my hands more than my mouth." ”

Xu Miaojin's eyes flickered.

It is said that the gentleman does not move his mouth, how can the imperial grandson come in reverse?

Xu Miaojin asked again like a reporter: "Recently, I also went north to Datong, and I heard that others said to you, some people said that you are tyrannical and easy to kill, what do you think?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the eunuch Fang Chang and the others on the left and right of the attendants immediately changed color.

If the other party was not the daughter of Xu Da, the king of Zhongshan, it is estimated that he would have been dragged out long ago.

Zhu Yunxi's eyes were sharp, and he said coldly: "Acting alone, why do you need to care about the opinions of others?" ”

"How do you ..... So domineering? Xu Miaojin said with a red face.

It was the first time she had met such a strong man.

Zhu Yunxi finished eating the apricot, wiped his mouth, and said, "As you said before, I thought that Gu thought you were small, so he made up words to lie to you." ”

"In the eyes of others, isn't Lone a young and bulliable?"

He stood up, walked away with his hands, and left behind a sentence: "If you don't use thunderbolts, how can you show the heart of a bodhisattva?" If I am not ruthless, I may be the one who will die in the future. ”

Xu Miaojin looked at Zhu Yunxi's back in surprise.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, this figure looks extraordinarily tall!

......

In the twenty-sixth year of Hongwu, the first day of the ninth month.

At the suggestion of Zhu Yunxi, Zhu Gui, the acting king, organized a hunting activity.

The imperial grandson guarded 3,000 cavalry, 1,000 cloud cavalry, 1,000 tiger guards, and 1,000 Yulin guards.

On behalf of the king's palace, he guarded 5,000 horsemen.

It's not that Zhu Gui wants to take these people, but the rules.

After taking up the domain, Zhu Yuanzhang required the vassal kings to choose thousands of well-ridden warriors to follow every time they went out hunting.

Let the guards train diligently and endure hardships often, so that they will not be timid in the face of war.

Datong served as the northern frontier of the Ming Dynasty, the barrier of Beiping and the northern gateway of Shanxi.

From the establishment of the Ming Dynasty until the late Ming Dynasty, it has been responsible for defending and resisting the looting, raids and invasion of the Mongol forces in the north.

Especially in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, many incursions by Mongol forces were carried out directly on Datong Town.

In the history books, it is even described as "there is no void on the side", which shows the frequent wars in Datong Town at the beginning.

Because of this, the imperial court built a large number of military defense systems and combat systems in Datong.

Such as the Great Wall, military forts, enemy platforms and fire road piers.

The Great Wall was called a side wall in the Ming Dynasty, not a wall that divides the borders.

The side wall is not a border, and a large area outside the Great Wall in the early Ming Dynasty was actually controlled by the Ming army.

The location of this hunt was just outside the side walls.

Soon, they reached the Great Wall Pass.

On the Great Wall, a border army wearing hats and helmets and long crimson armor.

These soldiers, all strong and strong, with sharp eyes and full of oppression.

Compared with the officers and soldiers in the Central Plains, it seems that they can fight several at one without weapons.

Xiongguan is majestic, look at the continuous Great Wall, spread in the mountains everywhere, and the chimney piers are one after another.

Outside the Great Wall, there are hundreds of fortresses and piers everywhere.

It is mainly built around the city of Datong.

"Imperial grandson, don't underestimate these tunbao."

Acting Wang Zhu Gui pointed to a piece in front of him: "They are not only used to reclaim the fields, but also have livestock farms, chicken and duck farms, vegetable gardens, etc. ”

Zhu Yunxi nodded slightly, which could greatly reduce the intensity of transporting materials from the mouth.

Xie Jin, who was beside him at any time, also said with emotion: "The imperial court has set up a camp field division, and within a few years, the grain and rice warehouses will be full, and it will not cost a single grain to raise a million soldiers." ”

These forts, which are equivalent to military strongholds, are integrated with residence and defense.

Some also dug a trench under the wall, and there were shooting holes in the wall, and the military households lived in it, armed with bows and arrows.

Hundreds of horse thieves outside the Saiwai, or some invading steppe tribes, are difficult to gnaw on a tunbao.

Not to mention, the various hoards are mutually supportive.

Mainly in the face of enemy attacks, the pier is a little wolf, and the military fort will send troops.

At this time, all the generals gathered around Zhu Yunxi.

Seeing that the army was ready, they assembled at the pass and waited.

Zhu Yunxi turned over on his horse, pointed outside the Great Wall, and shouted: "Out of the stopper!" Hunt! ”

"Boom, boom."

The sound of hooves was like thunder, and eight thousand iron horsemen set out.

Smoke and dust billowed and fiery red horsehair flew, and rows of horsemen armed with sabers cheered and galloped towards the steppe.

Watch the clouds charge forward with overwhelming momentum.

Chang Sheng, the founding prince of the country, said proudly: "The imperial grandson, it's not me who brags, looking at all parts of the Ming Dynasty, there is no cavalry that can compare with my Chang Jiayun cavalry." ”

When Chang Sheng spoke, the generals of Datong all looked at those knights with envy and jealousy.

I also thought about when I would be able to have so many strong knights.

Back then, Chang Yuchun led the cloud cavalry to charge the Yuan army, but he was crushed all the way!

The Yuan army stationed in Datong was even more afraid of it and fled.
