Chapter 429: Mid-Autumn Festival Family Banquet
In August of Jinling, the fragrance of osmanthus and the good news of the Western Expeditionary Army also spread to the city of Nanjing.
In this battle, Deng Yu, the general of the expedition to the west, and Mu Ying, the deputy general, led the army deep into the hinterland of Tubo, pursued and killed the king of Yu of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, and the Tubo Zanpu He Su Nanpu to the depths of the Kunlun Mountains, and finally beheaded 10,000 people, captured 50,000 prisoners, and captured more than 200,000 horses, cattle, and sheep.
After the great victory, the countries of the Western Regions surrendered their land, and the Ming Dynasty opened up thousands of miles of territory. Uszangdu commanded Ban Zhu'er to hide the Bu, and led the princes to Hezhou to work in the army.
In the end of the Ming Dynasty, the Tibetan tribes of Tubo and Wusi never rebelled again......
After Zhu Yuanzhang saw the good news, he issued a decree to reward Deng Yu, and gave him a red python warm robe and a jade belt. The rest of the soldiers had to wait for the class to be rewarded by the military department.
Then Zhu Yuanzhang ordered Shaanxi to guard Song Sheng, temporarily move the town to Hezhou, and disperse the subjugated Tubo tribes to gather the people. Deng Yu, the general of the expedition to the west, led a large army back to Beijing to offer prisoners.
~~
But in private, what makes Boss Zhu even happier is his son, who has excellent performance.
coincided with the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, and he, like all old fathers in the world, boasted about the exploits of his second child at the banquet.
"Not only Deng Yu, but Wen Ying's letter also said that the second child is talented, others can't breathe in Kunlun Mountain, and he can catch Tibetan foxes all over the mountains!" Boss Zhu said triumphantly: "It is worthy of our species, we were also physically strong back then, and we marched for three days and three nights without napping, and we can fight immediately when we arrive at the battlefield!" ”
"The hero doesn't mention the courage of the year, how can his son boast about himself?" Queen Ma said speechlessly.
"We're not boasting, didn't the second child inherit our pair of iron feet, can he take scouts around to scout when everyone else is lying down? Didn't he inherit our clairvoyance, and he could find the shadow of the Tubo people? "Boss Zhu's boasting has reached a certain level, praising his son and praising himself at the same time, which is inseparable from each other.
"Obviously, I relied on the high reflex medicine that the fifth brother gave to the second brother, and the tele......scope I made up," the sixth muttered angrily.
"Say less, beware of being beaten on Mid-Autumn Night." The fourth brother, who specially rushed back from Fengyang for the festival, persuaded.
"Yes, fourth brother, I practice closed-mouth meditation." The sixth brother has always maintained respect for the fourth brother from the bottom of his heart.
"Having said that, the second brother really showed his face this time." Zhu Di's eyes were full of envy and said: "Expedition of thousands of miles, across Kunlun, after a lot of hardships, a big victory!" I must be very happy! ”
"Are you different?" The third child teased him and said: "It took two years, across Erjing, and after a lot of hard work, there was finally a result, I must be very happy?" ”
"Humph!" The fourth white looks at the third child, he is in a good mood today, and he has a big holiday, so he doesn't have the same knowledge as him.
Why is he in a good mood? Because after the two of them moved to Fengyang, Princess Yan's stomach finally moved! The accompanying imperial physician has confirmed that the princess is indeed pregnant......
In addition to the festival, the more important purpose of the fourth child's return to Beijing is to report the good news to his father, queen mother.
"It's you." The third child is very cheap, and the more the fourth child doesn't quarrel with him, the more flirtatious he becomes. "I can take the ordinary thing like my wife's pregnancy as good news, and report the good news to my father and queen mother. Admiration, admiration, admiration, really admirable. ”
"You!" The fourth man was angry, and roared in a low voice: "I am a full man, I don't know how hungry a man is hungry, do you know how difficult it is for me to get into this child?" I've even eaten bloody mud! ”
"Vomit ......" the third child almost vomited, and gave a thumbs up and bowed to the wind.
"Fourth brother is amazing!" The praise of the sixth came as scheduled. It is worthy of His Royal Highness King Yan, who can eat stool, and the recipe is vast and boundless......
"Well, anyway, there is finally an explanation." The fourth child was still very happy overall, and he drank a glass of wine and said: "I have been suffocated for half a year, and this king is going to do a big job!" ”
"Is it literal?" King Jin said with a smile: "The Golden Lotus Courtyard is new, it is the batch we brought back from Goryeo, and it has been trained by Liuniang." Welcome His Royal Highness King Yan to visit and guide. ”
While the prince was away from the table to pee, the brothers began to talk nonsense again.
"What do you think of me, the princess is still pregnant, how can I mess around outside? Am I still human! The old four righteous words refused.
"You can hang it up." The third said with a smile.
"Alas, in fact, it's not a pity for the princess to relax once in a while and only listen to small tunes......" The fourth child changed his mind.
"His Royal Highness King Yan, this palace toasts you." While the brothers were talking, Concubine Da Ding came over with a glass of wine.
"Concubine Ding's mother tormented me." The fourth child hurriedly said politely.
"Hey, the old seven and eight are all following you and practicing your skills in Fengyang. You're half a teacher of them, too. Concubine Dading covered her mouth and smiled: "Your Highness has to worry a lot and take care of it." ”
"It doesn't matter if you bother, that's what an older brother should be." King Yan hesitated and said: "If you take care of it, I will take care of those who can bear it, and if you can't afford it, don't blame it." ”
"Oh?" Concubine Da Ding heard what he said, and asked with a tight expression: "What trouble did the two thieves get into again?" ”
The heart said that no wonder they didn't come back for the holiday, it turned out that they were afraid of being beaten.
"I have already shown my father, and my mother asked my father." King Yan said with a little embarrassment.
"No matter what, can't you, the elder brother, hide it for them?" Concubine Da Ding involuntarily pulled down her face.
"I'll hide what I should do." King Yan eats a soft temper and doesn't eat hard, and he coldly drops a sentence and doesn't pay attention to her anymore. The implication is that what should not be concealed will not be concealed.
"Hmph, you're just prejudiced against my son!" Concubine Da Ding turned around and went back in a huff.
~~
"What are those two boys doing?" As soon as Concubine Da Ding left, the third child asked.
"Why tell you?" The fourth child is not angry.
"Fourth brother, let's talk about it, I'm also curious." At this time, the sixth said with a smile.
"Okay." The fourth child said from the good: "Alas, those two goods are simply perverted." The father accepted the lesson of the previous year, and was afraid that the children would be in danger, so he did not let them hide their names and let them train directly as princes. ”
"Damn, didn't you say that all the brothers have to come again? Why are we the only ones who are incognito and go to the fields as farmers? The third child was angry when he heard this.
"I also have to sell my art, and when I am a wanderer, I even ask for food along the street...... "Lao Wu added.
The sixth man who practiced closed-mouth meditation nodded, it was really sad for the speaker, and cry for the hearer.
"It's not because you played too much that year," the prince came back, sat down and said with a smile: "Father doesn't dare." ”
"Then what new tricks did they play, even the fourth brother couldn't bear it?" The sixth asked curiously.
"Alas, among the military households they managed, there are widows whose husbands have died in battle, and there are also singles whose wives have died." The fourth child said depressedly: "They forcibly got married, and everyone in the house blew up!" ”
"Okay...... ' The sixth couldn't help but sigh secretly, the old Zhu family really doesn't raise idlers.
Boss Zhu's son can not live, but he can't live without work......
"And that's not even the most outrageous." The fourth child was speechless and said: "Because there are too many widows in the military household and there are not enough singles, they use children to make up the number." It's really unreasonable to find a daughter-in-law in her forties for a seven or eight-year-old child! ”
