Time passed quickly, and more than ten days passed in a blink of an eye.

The imperial court's plan to clear the sky in Yingtian has now begun to be implemented, which is the most important event at the moment.

Whether it is the court or the locality, there is basically no fork, and the opposition is even more pitiful.

This was due to the emperor's early sweep of the court, and the opponents were either deposed and exiled, which deterred the rest of the people.

But this can only be said that the contradiction has been covered up, and whether the Qingzhang tax urging can start and end well is actually an uncertain thing.

Of course, these things have nothing to do with Zhu Jinghong, and he himself doesn't want to get involved, so naturally he doesn't pay much attention to it.

However, Zhu Jingyuan, the king of Rui, although he did not explicitly support Qingzhang, he also expressed his stance in public several times, hoping that the officials at all levels would do their best to complete the major policies of the dynasty.

The imperial court has big policies, and naturally there are small policies.

For example, the selection of the princess in charge of the Ministry of Rites began on the tenth day of the first month of March.

After three days of selection, only 100 of the nearly 700 ladies passed the selection and stayed in Beijing to wait for the re-election.

Among the 100 people announced by the Ministry of Rites, Baochai saw Yang Jingting's name, which was in the middle and back of the list, and it looked inconspicuous.

Seeing that Baochai was stunned and pondered for a long time, Ying'er reminded on the side: "Girl, let's go back!" ”

"Let's go!"

There will be a re-election on March 20, and only 30 people will be left at that time, which Baochai is confident of passing.

Leaving in the carriage, Baochai was still thinking about what was next, but Ying'er looked out through the curtain.

"Girl, there have been a lot of foreigners in Beijing in the past two days, what are they here for?"

Wen Xing on the side immediately interjected: "You don't know this, the crowning ceremony of the thirteenth master, these people were invited by the saint to watch the ceremony!" ”

"How do you know?"

"Listening to what the little guys said, I heard that there were still foreigners drinking and making trouble yesterday, and they were taken by the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, saying that they are now still detained in Shuntian Mansion!"

Wen Xing naturally likes to listen to these gossips, and is full of desire to share at the moment.

"It turned out to be the crowning of the thirteenth master, so after the crowning...... Isn't it time to get married! When she said this, Ying'er looked at Baochai.

At this time, Wen Xing said: "Wrong, after the crown, you have to be crowned king, and then you can get married!" ”

Glancing at Wen Xing, Ying'er leaned in front of Baochai and said with a smile: "Girl...... After you marry the Thirteenth Master, we will be able to live in the palace with you! ”

Baochai was silent about this, and then said slowly: "Only when you choose the princess can you get married!" ”

"Isn't the girl just choosing a princess?" Wen Xing asked with a coquettish face, her stupid appearance was also a little cute.

"Don't say a word, twitter...... It's a headache for me! Baochai looked helpless.

"Oh......"

When the Xue family's carriage was rushing home, the officials of the Ministry of Rites were still busy.

The Tusi Ministry of the various vassals came to the capital, and the clothing, food, housing and transportation of these people had to be arranged, and in the near future, they had to arrange an audience, and the Ministry of Rites was even busier for this.

These Tusi country lords and alliance leaders have been guided by the officials of the Ministry of Rites at this moment, and slowly rushed to the direction of the Qianqing Palace.

Many people are entering the palace for the first time, and looking at the towering palace walls and majestic palaces, these people are inevitably shocked.

The Heavenly Empire is really extraordinary...... It's a thought that pops into everyone's mind.

When he came to the Qianqing Gate, the guards in front of him were shining in golden armor, and their expressions were majestic like heavenly soldiers.

Without the Emperor's summons, everyone could only stand still and wait, even if they were the overlords of their respective territories.

When the Earth Emperor saw the True Emperor, he naturally had to bow his head and ears.

Everyone waited for nearly ten minutes, and finally a eunuch came out of the palace gate, but it was Dai Quan, the master of ceremonies, who was ordered to supervise the East Factory.

"There is a summons from the Lord, and the Lord of the Khans and the League of Kings Tusi will come to the palace to meet you!"

All the people present brought an interpreter with him, nominally with the title of deputy envoy, so that they could understand the meaning of the words.

Still under the guidance of the officials of the Ministry of Rites, a group of Khan King Tusi entered the Qianqing Gate and rushed towards the direction of the main hall.

The Qianqing Palace is the emperor's bedroom, and summoning here is more intimate than saying that the emperor does not treat everyone as outsiders, which the old foxes can understand.

Entering the hall and looking at the empty throne in front of them, everyone was in awe, and they didn't even have the courage to look twice.

Everyone stood in shifts in the hall, everyone lowered their heads slightly, and the hall was still very quiet, so that the sound of "dripping" could be heard.

At this moment, the emperor was sitting in the side hall drinking tea, and in front of him were three sons-in-law standing solemnly.

Today, Zhu Jinghong is dressed very formally, with four dragon round-necked robes, black gauze winged good crowns and jade leather belts, and his graceful and luxurious bearing almost makes people forget that he is a reckless man.

"Dad, it's almost time, isn't it?" Rui Wang Zhu Jingyuan opened his mouth to remind.

After tasting the last sip of tea, Zhu Xianming put down the teacup, and then said, "Then let's go!" ”

Hearing this, Cheng Ying took the crown hat from the little eunuch and carefully put it on the emperor's head.

I saw Zhu Xianming stand up, bypass the bookcase and walk in the direction of the main hall.

The first one was the prince to follow, and then Zhu Jingyuan and Zhu Jinghong.

In the main hall, seeing that the emperor was coming, Dai Quan shouted loudly: "Your Majesty has arrived!" ”

Hearing this signal, everyone present knelt on the ground, and the next moment Zhu Xianming just appeared, which shows that Dai Quan is stuck well.

"Knock on His Majesty the Emperor, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"Hooray, hooray, hooray!"

Although the spoken language was very surprised, I could barely hear that these people were paying homage to the emperor.

After Zhu Xianming sat down, Zhu Jinghong and the three of them stood in front of the palace on the left and right, and they did not say a word.

"Excuse me!"

The Khan King Tusi immediately got up, and then they all stood in place with their waists hooked, not daring to look at the emperor head-on.

"You've come all the way here, and you've worked hard all the way!" Zhu Xianming said with a smile.

Although it sounded like the emperor was chatting, no one dared to answer casually at the moment, and everyone at the scene listened carefully.

"The most important thing for you to come to Beijing this time is to let you participate...... I am the crown gift of this little son! ”

At this point, Zhu Xianming pointed to Zhu Jinghong, and it was only then that everyone raised their heads slightly.

This is a big deal, with the "simple" aesthetics of these foreigners, I only think that among the three imperial concubines, Zhu Jinghong's character is the most outstanding.

Of course, this is just their first thought.

The Khan King Tusi, who relied on the Ming Dynasty's snort to survive, naturally knew a lot about the pattern of the imperial court, and knew that the crown prince and the Rui king really could not be underestimated, and one of these two was going to inherit the throne.

"In my Ming Dynasty, a man is crowned at sixteen, and then he is an adult and then he has to marry a wife, so that he has children and reproduces......"

"You all have different customs, but they are the same!"

"The most important thing is that everyone wants to live a peaceful life!"

Speaking of this, Zhu Xianming sighed: "It's a pity...... It's such a simple wish, but someone wants to get in the way and mess up everything! ”

Who the last sentence is talking about, everyone present actually knows that no one has expressed their opinions at the moment, and they are not willing to be the first bird.

Picking up the teacup on the side, Zhu Xianming continued: "Who I am talking about, you must know, and I also know that you are also suffering!" ”

"Therefore, the second thing to summon you to Beijing this time is to discuss how to completely solve the big trouble of Dzungaria and restore the peace of the northwest land!"

There is no need to go around in circles when talking to these Khan King Tusi, Zhu Xianming knows the measure very well.

Too much nonsense will make people get the point wrong.

After all, he is the emperor, and someone will analyze every fart, and sometimes it is really easy to make people think too much.

"When the grandfather was in the past, the Dzungars were unruly, and now they are becoming more and more rampant......"

"Plunder your cattle and sheep, rob your population, and occupy your water and grass land!"

This is really not Zhu Xianming's hatred, because this is what really happened, and the Tusi of the various leagues adjacent to Dzungaria are really constantly harassed by it, and it can be said that they are deeply affected.

On the contrary, it is the Ming Dynasty, because it does not border it, and it has basically not been damaged by its real position, but its hegemony is challenged by it.

Next, the emperor made another statement, still analyzing the situation in the northwest for everyone, and finally concluded that it was indeed time to solve the problem.

As for how to send troops, how to distribute grain, grass and ordnance, and how to specify the battle plan......

These things are not discussed by the emperor, but will be handled by the Ministry of War, the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, and the Anxi Xingdu Division.

In fact, it took only ten minutes for the conversation to end.

During the whole process, everyone didn't see the emperor's face clearly, more precisely, they didn't dare to look at the emperor.

After Shanhu was long live again, Emperor Zhu Xianming left with the three princes, and then the courtiers were taken out by the courtiers.

It's just that Zasak Khan Wulimu stayed, and was taken to the warm pavilion by the eunuchs.

Wu Limu is in his forties this year, and he is already considered an old man on the grassland, and he is no longer able to rule the tribes below.

He knew why he was left alone, and it must have something to do with the behavior of the Zasak envoy on last year's Holy Birthday Day.

Waiting in the warm pavilion, thinking of the emperor's anger for a while, Wu Limu felt panic in his heart.

He was afraid of being reprimanded by the emperor, and even more afraid of being abandoned by the emperor!

Now that he is old, his son is difficult to convince the public, and if there is no canonization from the emperor, it is very likely that he will not be able to sit on the throne.

His younger brother Hu Zhiyi is strong and strong, and he is eyeing his khan position.

Last year, the mission acted recklessly, and it is likely that it was instigated by Hu Zhiyi.

Different from the panic and anxiety of Wu Limu, the Khan King Tusi who came out of the Qianqing Gate were all in a relaxed mood.

Obviously, the matter of meeting the emperor was extremely stressful for them.

The emperor's edict summoned them from thousands of miles away into the capital, which shows that the deterrent power of the Ming Dynasty is strong, and it is normal for them to be afraid when they meet the emperor.

"Father, I saw the thirteenth master that my sister said, and he looks pretty good...... It just doesn't look like a warrior! ”

"My sister said that he was the first warrior of the Ming Dynasty, and the people in various missions praised him last year, is he really as powerful as everyone said?"

Behind Su He, the leader of the Mubu Alliance, a young man spoke in a low voice, his expression fluttering.

But as long as you look closely, you can find that this young man is a woman disguised as a man, and he is also a beauty when he changes back to his daughter's clothes.

This girl is Su He's youngest daughter Nuo Min, because she has liked Han culture and books since she was a child, and she is also a famous talented woman in the Namu League.

This time, Su and His Majesty saw that Nuo Min was the translator of the Eight Classics, and he was named the deputy envoy of the mission.

And the sister in her mouth is the character of the Dzungar department, and according to the relationship between the Ming Dynasty, they are cousins.

After the last Holy Birthday Festival, the various missions left the capital one after another, and when Qige and his party returned to Dzungaria, they passed by the Namu League, so that Nuomin found the decadent Rising Sun.

When they went to the capital before, Nuo Min had seen this first warrior of Dzungaria, and the feeling she felt like the sun was blazing.

But the sunrise on the return trip was as late as the sunset, and the whole person was full of death.

After some inquiry, Nuo Min learned about what happened in the capital, which made her inevitably curious about Zhu Jinghong.

When the Rising Sun first came to the Nagibu Alliance, the bravest warriors in the alliance couldn't hold up a few moves under him, and Nomin really couldn't imagine what kind of brave man he could crush and even make him decadent.

Until now, Nuo Min still remembers the love-hate eyes that made people wonder when he mentioned Zhu Jinghong in the day.

Unlike his youngest daughter, who is ignorant of the world, Su He is much more cautious, so he reminded in a low voice: "Don't talk nonsense, this is the palace, and the people are the emperor's concubines!" ”

They used the language of their own ministry, and they were not afraid of being heard by the officials of the accompanying ministry.

"Father, is there really going to be a war next?"

"Are we and my cousin really going to be enemies?"

Although they have different positions, there are many marriages between the various alliances on the grassland, and they are somewhat related to each other.

"That's not something you should ask!" Su He's voice was angry, and he regretted that he doted on this little daughter too much.

"Oh!" Nomin nodded, her father was still afraid of her anger.

But a person is born with curiosity, and it is difficult to get rid of it, and Su He's rough suppression made Nuo Min even more curious.

Speaking of Zhu Jinghong's side, the emperor left the Zasak people alone to speak, leaving only the crown prince to accompany him, and he and Zhu Jingyuan left first.

During this time, in order to support the New Deal, Zhu Jingyuan became a busy man and needed to secretly arrange various affairs.

The two brothers talked for a while, and then Zhu Jingyuan left first, while Zhu Jinghong returned to Chengming Courtyard.

"Thirteenth Master, the primary list has come out!"

Deng An deserved to be the most intimate and sensible person around him, and directly took out a few pages of manuscripts, which he asked people to copy back from the Ministry of Rites.

"Hmm!" In response, Zhu Jinghong took the manuscript smoothly.

Soon he saw Baochai's name, and just as he was about to hand the manuscript back, he found the words "Yang Jingting" at the end.

In the primary election in the past few days, as far as Zhu Jinghong knows, Ting girl has not been present, but now this girl has passed directly.

Obviously, this is the handiwork of his own mother, and he is helpless about it.

Take off the veil hat on your head, take it into your hand, and then hand it over to the little eunuch who accompanied him.

Walking forward slowly, Zhu Jinghong said in a deep voice: "This time, the Tusi of the various ministries and leagues came to Beijing and offered many precious skins, and the Holy God gave me some ......."

"Choose some good ones and send them to Miss Xue for me!"

The one who can be presented to the emperor is the best of the best, but Zhu Jinghong still let him choose the one in it, which really made Deng An smack.

Although he felt that it was impossible for Baochai to choose the princess, it still made him have the idea of stammering in advance, even if he was not a princess, he was by no means weaker than the princess.

As Zhu Jinghong's confidant eunuch, Deng Anke knows too well how much this Xue girl has in the hearts of his master.

"Minions understand!"

Stopping, Zhu Jinghong turned his head and said, "It's done in these two days, don't be too ostentatious!" ”

"Yes!"

When Zhu Jinghong walked up the steps, Yinglian also came out of the hall, and it could be seen that she was more cheerful than before.

This is because now Yinglian has been officially rewarded to Zhu Jinghong and has become his first woman in name.

"Thirteenth Master, you're back so early!"

Walking up the steps, Zhu Jinghong said with a smile: "What...... This is to drive me away! ”

"How dare a slave!" Yinglian stepped aside and bent down to make a gesture of please.

Compared with the restraint in Kunning Palace, Zhu Jinghong's side is obviously much more relaxed, and Yinglian is naturally "happy".

Of course, the eunuchs under Zhu Jinghong will never feel easy to serve this master.

stepped forward to straighten Li Yinglian's clothes, Zhu Jinghong took her hand, and then turned back and ordered: "By the way, those skins...... Also pick some for Yinglian, so that this girl will have a few decent clothes in winter! ”

"Yes!"

Baochai's first heroine, this is undoubted, I have received everyone's reward subscriptions, how dare you mess around!
