Chapter 442: Zhu Gaoxian: Dead Soldier? I'm waiting for you!
For the people of the city, today is a pretty good day.
First of all, the expedition to Mobei that His Royal Highness the Ming Prince, today is finally the class to return to the dynasty, it is said that he led 50,000 Ming troops, swept the entire grassland, and successively eliminated the Tatars and Warat......
This news was so shocking and exciting for the people who had suffered from the alien races in the north that many people felt unbelievable and incredible.
After all, the founding of the Ming Dynasty was only a few decades, counting from the Hongwu Emperor, it was not many years before the Mongol Tatars were driven out of the Central Plains, and the later emperor Zhu Di said that he often defeated the Tatars or something, but these nomadic alien races came and went like the wind, and often came south to hunt grass and valley during the autumn grain harvest to plunder, causing the people of the entire northern land to be devastated and miserable.
And now many people suddenly heard that Zhu Gaoxian led a large army to wipe out these Tartars, and even their country was destroyed, just like the previous Liaodong and the Wa Kingdom, which had been completely wiped out by the Ming Dynasty, how could this make them not excited and excited?
Moreover, with the news of this good news, the lockdown that lasted for almost a month is said to be coming to an end soon, which is even more important good news for the people inside and outside Beijing......
Finally, according to the brocade-clothed horsemen and soldiers on the street, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will also lead the army into the city today to present the Jietai Temple, and there will be those Tartar prisoners of war and heads in the procession, as well as all kinds of booty, and every citizen who goes to watch will receive a bag of grain, which can be regarded as compensation given by the imperial court for this period of time to close the city.
This made the vast majority of the people in Beijing feel very happy and satisfied.
Of course, there are those who don't believe and say strange things.
In a teahouse on the side of the street, everyone is drinking tea and talking to kill time, while also waiting to watch the soldiers return triumphantly.
Suddenly, an unsociable voice came out:
"The Tartars are so fierce, where could they be wiped out so easily?"
"I think it's probably just a deliberate exaggeration because I want to come back in a hurry."
Now, with the deliberate spread of people with hearts, the death of the old emperor Zhu Di has already spread all over the streets and alleys of Beijing, and everyone knows it, including the entire northern land, and has already learned the news.
In the eyes of some people, they felt that Zhu Gaoxian must have succeeded to the throne in a hurry, so he gave up halfway and hurried back.
And this so-called Xianjie Taimiao, most of them are just slapping a swollen face and becoming fat, trying to create a battle of great victory.
As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden silence in the teahouse.
Soon, someone began to retort:
"What's that your name?"
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, how can he be such a person?"
"Back then, when I conquered Liaodong and pacified the Wa Kingdom, which one was not smooth and easy to capture?"
"Those Tartars in the north, in the past, it was just His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he didn't want to cause more trouble, this time, since they dared to take the initiative to attack us, how could His Royal Highness the Crown Prince easily spare them?"
"Even if you think it's too ......."
Everyone accused the man one after another, thinking that this person was talking nonsense, but unexpectedly, he rolled his eyes, and said angrily:
"What do you believe when the officials say?"
"Is it true that he said that he exterminated the Tatars? Do you know how big the Mobei grassland is? ”
"Sit in the well and watch the sky! A bunch of fools! ”
Well?
Seeing that many customers quarreled with this person, the owner of the teahouse suddenly narrowed his eyes, and hurriedly walked out to appease him, while his eyes glanced slightly outside the door of the teahouse, and at the same time made a secret signal quietly in his hand.
On the street outside, there were several sergeants in armor and two brocade guards with embroidered spring knives, who were also looking into the teahouse with a little vigilance because of the noise in the teahouse.
As soon as the eyes of the two sides met slightly, the soldiers outside nodded slightly, and then their eyes swept around the teahouse, and by the way, the man's appearance and image were firmly remembered in their hearts.
With the Jinyi Guard and the soldiers of the Fifth Army Battalion taking over the city defense, plus some suspects have been captured, they have long known that some people seem to have bad intentions, and they will stage another Yunzhou assassination again.
And a man like this man who deliberately spread rumors and cause trouble in the teahouse was also included in the surveillance, and only after today's parade was successfully completed, the Jinyi guard would start to take people around......
Of course, if there are really people who don't know how to raise their heads and rush to come out to create chaos and have bad intentions, then they will naturally kill the killer mercilessly!
……
Settle outside the door.
A group of civil and military officials of the imperial court headed by Yang Rong finally ushered in Zhu Gaoxian and his party.
"The ministers have seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"Get up," Zhu Gaoxian looked at Yang Rong, and found that although his right-hand man was not bad, the whole person was visibly haggard, and Xia Laoshangshu next to him looked even older.
He immediately dismounted, came to the front of everyone, and helped the two of them with his own hands, and spoke with emotion and earnestness:
"The lonely expedition to Mobei, all the things in Beijing, let the two of you worry about it."
Yang Rong's heart suddenly became hot, and he said with a smile on his face:
"His Royal Highness the Prince, these are the duties of ministers, and now that you have returned, everything will be fine."
Xia Yuanji on the side also said happily:
"Your Highness, you have conquered the grassland and made such an extraordinary achievement, what can we old bones count for our hard work."
When Zhu Gaoxian heard this, he was immediately happy.
He turned to look at the many ministers of civil and military affairs, and glanced over one by one, only to see some people smiling and honestly afraid, others with their eyes rolling wildly and their minds flying, and some people staring intently at their side, with a somewhat mad smile......
"Heh," he instantly had a general control of the situation in his heart, and he didn't say anything more, but turned back to his horse and said to Yang Rong and the others:
"Don't miss the auspicious time, Yang Ge Lao, Xia Shangshu, please lead the way ahead, let the soldiers enter the city."
At the moment when he turned his head, Zhu Gaoxian glanced in a certain direction, and very accurately grasped the murderous aura coming from there.
He thought to himself:
"Ministry of Rites? Surnamed Hu? ”
"Wang Zhi, this old guy, doesn't seem to be moving at all, he seems to be very confident......"
Zhu Gaoxian rode his horse slowly, and couldn't help sneering slightly in his heart:
"I want to see what kind of dead man can rush to me this time!" (End of chapter)
