"Phew!"

The wind was blowing, the wind swept the sand and dust, and the king of Han ate a mouthful of sand and spit out a mouthful of bloody phlegm mixed with sand and gravel on the ground.

The wind echoed in the valley, causing the dry weeds to shake and tremble, and the corpses of the Ming army and the Tatars were piled up in the narrow mountain road, and the blood stains on the walls on both sides had dried up, like the blood-colored murals on the Senluo Hell, cold and bewitching.

Overall, the number of corpses of the Ming army was much smaller than that of the Tatars, and only one Ming corpse could be unearthed from more than a dozen Tatar corpses.

King Han is quite complacent about this, although he can't beat Zhu Gaoxian, a brute, but he is a professional in beating Mengren.

After a bloody battle, his army swept through the southern part of the mountain, and the Tatars who did not attack the mountain also realized that this Han man was not easy to provoke, and they cowered in the northern part of the mountain range.

】

However, they shrink up, it does not mean that the King of Han will stop here, his desire is unlimited, he will start from not piercing the mountain, riding horses and whips, sweeping Mobei, and then fighting back to the Ming Dynasty!

……

"Master Hou, the King of Han has already occupied half of the mountain of Yibu, can we send troops to sneak attack?"

"Don't worry, let him be happy for a while."

On the city wall of Jiayuguan, Liu Rong held a wine jug and said vigorously, "It's only now where to go, at least we have to wait for him to knock down all the mountains before stealing the fruit." ”

Liu Rong, former Liaodong General Army. Later, after the entire northeast was included in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty shifted the military focus from Liaodong to the northwest, and Liu Rong was also promoted to the first Northwest General Army. The post of the former Liaodong General Army was revoked, and the Liaodong military power was returned to the Yudu Command Embassy.

The current commander of Liaodong was promoted by the former commander of Jianzhou Province.

Liu Rong's change in position this time has not changed in rank, because neither the Liaodong General Army nor the Northwest General Army are permanent positions, and they all have no ranks.

However, in terms of real power, he still belongs to the promotion, not only promoted, but also knighted.

Liu Rong finally got the title he coveted, and directly crossed the earl and was promoted to the "Marquis of Guangning".

He recalled that when King Qi was marching into Nu'er Gandusi, Zhu Gaoxian bowed slightly, Zhu Gaoxian patted him on the shoulder, and said to him: "General Liu still has a lot of room for improvement, if it has been like this, according to the king, General Liu can still improve." ”

Zhu Gaoxian did not break his promise, and in just a few years, Liu Rong underwent earth-shaking changes and successfully progressed to become the Marquis of Guangning.

Thinking of this, Liu Rong looked at the Saiwai north of Jiayuguan with resolute eyes: "Your Highness, don't worry, the minister will not forget the grace of carrying and guard the northwest of my Ming Dynasty for the rest of his life!" ”

Guarding the Northwest, and ...... When the sixth.

Just behind the King of Han, how many territories the King of Han fell, the Ming army followed behind to sneak attack and grab territory.

It's just that King Han doesn't have enough wool on his body now, and he hasn't even stabbed the mountain, Liu Rong is waiting for King Han to grow!

The stronger the King of Han, the more he grabbed.

And the king of Han himself did not realize that he had fallen into the trap set by Zhu Gaoxian, if he knew this, he was afraid that he would shout angrily: "Brute! Can you change the pit! ”

……

Beijing's Xiangshan, located in the western suburbs, has a unique emerald color on weekdays, to the autumn season, it is the season of slaughter, the eyes are the red leaves, as if the remnant sun falls on the mountain, the distant mountains and near the slopes, in the autumn wind, like the red glow to the mountains and the sea.

This is a royal land, after the capital was moved from Nanjing to Beijing, in Zhu Di's planning, the palace garden will be built in Xiangshan.

Although these projects have not yet been completed, they have been slightly large-scale, and after finishing the errand at hand, Zhu Gaoxian took his crown princess to Xiangshan for a tour.

In a rare leisure time, Zhu Gaoxian lay on a rattan chair under the tree, letting pieces of red leaves fall on his body, and Zhang Yingzhen, who was sitting next to him, made tea while sweeping away the fallen leaves on his body for him.

Zhu Gaoxian lazily took a sip of tea and said: "I really want to lie down comfortably like this for the rest of my life, there is no concert, no government affairs, no military newspapers, such a leisurely life is really intoxicating." ”

The crown princess said softly: "Intoxication, often is the beginning of sinking, if people are idle, they want to think, Tang Xuanzong was not a hero when he was young, it is precisely because he was immersed in the exploits of the first half of his life, he was drunk and obsessed, and finally degenerated, and the late season was not guaranteed, causing chaos." ”

"Yes, my wife has a point."

Zhu Gaoxian sighed, "Even if it is me, I must always warn myself and warn myself to live in a crisis forever, only those who live in a crisis can keep themselves sane and sober forever." ”

Zhang Yingzhen pursed her lips and chuckled: "Your Highness is a wise lord, naturally it will not be Tang Xuanzong of this dynasty, you are Tang Taizong." ”

Zhu Gaoxian was silent for a while, because Tang Taizong himself was eavesdropping in his head now.

He stood up and said, "Go out for a walk with me, and look at the autumn leaves all over the mountains." ”

The crown princess happily agreed: "I am willing to travel with you." ”

……

The young couple walked hand in hand on the mountain path, the fallen leaves were like crimson veils, and when they got married, they were all so red.

"I still remember, when we were in the Qi Wangfu in Nanjing, you took me on the stone path of the camphor forest near the Dabao'en Temple, and at that time, the concubine also met the real you for the first time."

Zhang Yingzhen recalled, "Is that person still healthy? ”

Zhu Gaoxian shook his head, as if he was reluctant to talk deeply on this topic, and changed the topic and said: "Speaking of King Qi's Mansion, I still have two guards in Songlu Mountain outside Nanjing, and they are being trained by Chi Rong, the original commander of the 3,000 battalions. Chi Rong was one of the first generals to follow me, although he was a native of Mengyuan, but he also won my trust, I only left him a training plan, and I don't know how the two guards practiced...... Why do I talk about these things again, and I come out to relax, but I always think about these trivial things. ”

Zhang Yingzhen said with a smile: "Your Royal Highness cares about the community, even though it is not easy to relax to visit the landscape, but you still remember the world, which is the blessing of the people of the Ming Dynasty." ”

Zhu Gaoxian shook his head and said, "Boat carrier, water also." There is no one who is blessed, because the people support it, so our Zhu family can sit in this position, what I can do is to do my best for them, so that they can live a better life. ”

His wife retorted to him in a rare way: "That's a bad word. ”

Zhu Gaoxian asked with interest: "Oh, what is my wife's rebuttal?" ”

Zhang Yingzhen stopped, looked at him with misty eyes, and said seriously: "Your Highness said that there is no one who is blessed, and the concubine does not agree with this sentence. ”

"Your Highness, it is the greatest blessing for the concubine."

Zhu Gaoxian hugged his wife into his arms and said gently: "You and I are married as husband and wife, don't say this kind of thing again in the future, you don't owe me anything." ”

In the eyes of the crown princess, the rich love turned into a little tears.

"Huh?"

Zhu Gaoxian raised his eyebrows slightly, but he just glanced at it inadvertently, but his eyes were locked on a red-leaved cochinus in the distance.

Zhang Yingzhen realized that something was wrong: "Your Highness, what's wrong?" ”

"Look at it, there seems to be something wrong with that tree."

Zhu Gaoxian's face was solemn, and the diameter walked towards the red leaf coxacon, in the autumn season, except for the path he just walked was cleared because of prior notice, the rest of the place was piled up with thick fallen leaves, which was extremely difficult to walk.

Zhang Yingzhen held her skirt with both hands, followed Her Highness down to the tree, observed it but didn't notice anything abnormal, and asked: "Your Highness, most of the people on Xiangshan are this variety of red-leaved cocoons, and there are thousands of them everywhere, this tree is unremarkable, what's abnormal?" ”

"No, this one is different."

Zhu Gaoxian did not hesitate to pull out the saber at his waist, this barrier knife followed him into battle to kill the enemy, never left his body, even if he went out for an outing, he would take it with him.

The sharp blade slashed at the body of the tree, and after a few slashes from the bottom, it broke off and fell on the spot.

"You see, where the roots of this tree are involved, they have begun to rot."

Zhu Gaoxian pointed to the coxagulus stake and said, "And the color of the fallen leaves under this tree is also slightly different from other fallen leaves." ”

Zhang Yingzhen asked suspiciously: "Is Your Highness a little suspicious, there are so many trees on Xiangshan, it is normal for one or two to die, right?" ”

"It's not normal, this tree doesn't seem to have died under the influence of nature, but it seems to have been affected by man."

Zhu Gaoxian frowned and said, "In my opinion, the soil under this tree should have been affected by external forces, and it should be due to the production of anaerobic decay and acidic toxic substances that have damaged the roots of the tree." ”

Zhang Yingzhen was a little confused: "Anaerobic corruption...... Acidic poisons? ”

What's new?

She glanced back and asked, "This tree, which is nearly a hundred steps away from the place where we were just now, how did Your Highness notice that among the countless mangroves, there is such a tree that is extremely difficult to discern?" ”

Zhu Gaoxian said casually: "My eyesight has always been very good. ”

Zhang Yingzhen said in her heart that this is no longer something that can be explained by good eyesight, no matter how good your eyesight is, it can be like this, can this be a normal person's observation?

But when she thought of the strength of her Royal Highness tossing people on the couch, she suddenly felt ...... Pretty reasonable.

Normal people can't toss for two or three hours......

Zhu Gaoxian fell into the memories.

In such a special case, it seems that there are only ...... Corpses can have such an effect on trees.

According to the principle of general organic matter fertilizer, if the organic matter is not fully decomposed, there will be the production of bacterial metabolic toxic substances, or directly cause the breeding of harmful bacteria to infect the tree roots. Carcasses are not good fertilizer for trees.

If the soil is well vented and drained, all the nutrients from the corpse will be released, and the corpse can be decomposed in about seven years, and the corpse can be used as a long-acting and slow-acting fertilizer, provided that it is under certain conditions.

For trees, ashes as dry matter are easier to use with other inorganic fertilizers.

Obviously, the current red-leaved coxadocus is more like something has destroyed the growth environment and caused corruption.

Zhu Gaoxian beckoned behind him: "Come on, throw this tree root, look for it below, and look at what is hidden." ”

Although he went out for fun, he still brought hundreds of guards with twelve guards, and this number of guards has exceeded the specifications that the crown prince should have, but Zhu Gaoxian is not an ordinary crown prince, and no one dares to say that he has more guards.

……

After a long time, the sun set in the western mountains, and the guards almost hollowed out the bottom of the mahogany coxaculus, and turned out the soil into a hill.

"Your Highness, I found it!"

Someone shouted, and Zhu Gaoxian, who was waiting on the side, walked over.

I saw that in the pit lay a rotting corpse, its clothes had been rotted and tattered, the dark corpse had maggots wriggling and exuding a disgusting stench, and the roots of the trees had festered because of the corpse.

However, for Zhu Gaoxian, who is accustomed to seeing the pile of dead people on the battlefield, the impact of this corpse is minimal.

Zhang Yingzhen, who was born in Jiangmen, was not frightened by the corpse, but calmly observed the somewhat decomposed corpse, and said, "It seems that it has been dead for a while." ”

"It's been about ten days since I died, and it doesn't matter how long I have been dead, what matters is who the person who died."

Zhu Gaoxian's eyes were cold, "This is the squire of the Criminal Department, Wang Quan." ”

Zhang Yingzhen was taken aback: "The waiter of the criminal department? ”

"Wang Quan has been missing for a while, and Jinyiwei has searched all over Beijing, but he hasn't found this person."

Zhu Gaoxian sighed, "I didn't expect that the person was buried in Xiangshan, and I saw that there was a big hole in his abdomen, and he must have been killed." ”

"It's really kind, not far from the royal garden, there is a real power court official who is the third grade, and I don't know who did it."

Zhang Yingzhen's eyes flickered, but she didn't speak.

Zhu Gaoxian waved his hand and said to the guards of the Twelve Guards: "Go to the Jinyi Guard Yamen to say hello, call Shen Qingyu over, and let him deal with this matter." ”

Although the words were breezy and cloudy, everyone could feel the murderous intent in the voice of His Royal Highness the Prince.

It is no wonder that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince took the Crown Princess out to visit the landscape, which was originally very pleasant, but it turned out to be such a bad thing, and no one could be happy.

What's more, the fact that a criminal servant was killed and buried in such a sparsely populated place is a terrifying eucalyptus in itself.

If it weren't for the accident, I'm afraid no one would have been able to find the corpse of this Lord of the Criminal Department, after all, in less than two months, this corpse would turn into white bones, and it would be even more difficult to be found.

I don't know which daring person dared to commit such a big mistake.

……

Zhu Gaoxian took his wife's hand and returned to the other garden by the same way.

On the way, after Zhang Yingzhen confirmed that there was no one around, she asked in a low voice: "The death of this Lord Wang is ...... with His Royal Highness."

With her acumen, she quickly realized that something was wrong with the problem, but she couldn't say it clearly when there were so many people just now, and now that there was no one, she wanted to ask.

"I killed it."

Zhu Gaoxian said calmly, "I gave the order, Shen Qingyu's hand, in order to sing such a good show." ”

Zhang Yingzhen was silent, although she had already guessed the truth, she didn't expect His Highness to admit it so bluntly.

"Concubines shouldn't talk too much, please forgive your highness."

"There's nothing wrong with you, it's not mine this time, I'm sorry."

Zhu Gaoxian sighed.

He brought Zhang Yingzhen to Xiangshan, and from the very beginning, it was in his layout.

The death of Wang Quan, the squire of the Criminal Department, was just to outline his layout, so as to start a long-planned show.

This time, I don't know how many heads will roll on the ground.
