The favorite concubines were stunned when they heard this, their husbands and goddesses are really good at jumping, and they speak decently, as if they were the real thing.

Seeing that his remarks were a little too shocking, Zhu Qiyu further explained: "The reason why the Miao people dare to go head-to-head with the Ming army is that they would rather pay the price of more than 100,000 casualties and inflict heavy losses on our army, which shows that they also have heroes within them and can unite the Miao people."

If you have a hero, you must dare to do extraordinary things.

There is also Jingyuan Bo Wang Ji, who can also be regarded as the No. 1 hero.

I covered my head and sighed, not because King Xiang was captured, but because I was going to fight with these heroes thousands of miles apart.

Oh, that's a lot of pressure. If I win the fight, maybe I can recover the Miao people and use them for me. At the same time, he can also control Wang Ji, so as to control the Southern Ming Army.

If the fight is lost, it will be laughing and generous, and the situation in the south will be erosive, resulting in instability on the throne. ”

Lin Xiangyu asked curiously, "Why doesn't half of the husband's cronies go to the south?" ”

"Hey, don't mention this, send a weak one, you can only be played by Wang Ji and others. If you send confidants like He Yi and Huang Pu over, it is not surprising that they will soon die inexplicably 'accidentally'.

Send your henchmen and pro-army over, please refer to Anyuan Marquis Liu Pu for the end.

So I won't send half of my cronies, I can't push people into the fire pit and watch them die.

Let's let Wang Ji play freely there, and I will watch quietly in the capital.

When he makes a move, I take it. If he doesn't make a move, let's continue to have children. ”

……

Half a month passed in a flash.

In the blink of an eye, it is April 1st.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Wang Ji, Liang Xuan, Fang Ying, and Hou Jin read the edict sent by the capital together.

To everyone's surprise, the emperor really ordered to stop the encirclement and suppression and hold peace talks with the Miao people.

What satisfied everyone was that the emperor took all the responsibility and did not even say a word of reproach to Wang Ji. This is really much better than putting people in prison at every turn when the emperor was in power.

Wang Ji asked everyone, "What should you do?" ”

Hou Jin replied: "The Duke of Qianguo has led the army out of Yunnan and into Guizhou. In fact, if we continue to fight, we will win. In particular, the Miao people lost more than 100,000 people in the first battle, and they have been injured and their vitality has been greatly damaged.

Although our army also lost 100,000 men, the main force was intact, so it waited for work at ease and attacked from three sides, and it was possible to decide a major event in one fell swoop.

At this time, His Majesty ordered to stop the encirclement and suppression, wouldn't it be a return to the mountain? ”

When Fang Ying heard this, she also expressed her opinion: "I thought that what Hou Shilang said, Your Majesty also knew it clearly, but King Xiang's entire family was captured, and they were all in the hands of the Miao people, and Your Majesty couldn't compromise if he wanted to."

Speaking of this seriously, it is certainly still our responsibility. If we hadn't besieged the Miao army in Guizhou in three ways with the main army, so that the Huguang garrison was empty, King Xiang would not have been captured.

Now His Majesty has not pursued us, but has taken responsibility himself, and he has treated us well. ”

After Fang Ying finished speaking, everyone looked at Wang Ji.

Wang Ji made the final decision: "Let's obey the order and stop the encirclement and suppression." Then cooperate with Yang Shan to redeem King Xiang.

After years of war, the main force of our army has been exhausted from the three expeditions to Luchuan, so listen to the saint and bring the army to Nanjing for rest and recuperation. ”

Since Wang Ji has no opinions, others don't say anything more.

After a few people divided the labor, Hou Jin and Liang Hao led the troops into Guizhou and joined the Qianguo Guild to ensure the safety of Guizhou.

Wang Ji and Fang Ying led the main force of the Ming army into Huguang, where they joined Shi Heng, Sun Bo, and Liu Yongcheng to completely restore order in the Huguang Plain.

50,000 new troops are still guarding Xiangyang. The emperor's latest Jinyi guards and Shangzhi guards were stationed in Wuchang as a reserve force to support all parties at any time.

After doing this, the war also entered a period of complete calm.

On April 10, Yang Shan finally completed his mission, reached an agreement with the Miao people, and finally successfully took the Xiangwang family out of trouble.

The Miao people were at peace, and the Ming soldiers were able to stop the army and recuperate, and they were all happy.

Everyone thought everything was perfect, but only King Xiang knew what had happened to his family: the hateful Miao people, who immersed themselves and their three sons in the icy water of the deep mountains, and then fed them special herbs.

Although King Xiang didn't know what these herbs were, one thing was very clear and intuitive: after all kinds of torture by the Miao people, he didn't react when facing the two newly accepted concubines!

It's okay if he doesn't react, but his son's body is also damaged.

King Xiang finally panicked: he doesn't have a grandson yet, so if he doesn't get better, then King Xiang's lineage, only two generations, will be extinct.

What's more, such a private issue has no way for outsiders to know, and there is no way to seek justice for King Xiang.

Fortunately, after returning to the palace in Changsha, the two newly accepted concubines of King Xiang secretly passed on the news.

Zhu Qiyu sent people to build two prince-sized mansions in Changsha for the king of Dongwu County and the king of Xiwu County to live.

At this time, the construction of the two palaces had already started, so Zhu Qiyu was a useful person in Changsha.

The news sent by the two favorite concubines was quickly sent to Beijing through Zhu Qiyu's cronies in Changsha.

Early in the morning of April 20th.

Zhu Qiyu was still lying on the bed, and Qianxue walked in with a secret letter with a smile.

Seeing this, Zhu Qiyu also asked with a smile: "Is it the news from Warat, or is it from the southwest?" ”

Qianxue smiled: "It's from our eyeliner in Xiangwangfu, and the great god of the husband didn't jump, it's all in this letter." ”

Hearing this, Lin Xiangyu urged: "Sister, don't sell it, hurry up and open it." Since ancient times, the great gods are not so easy to jump, so let's see if the great god of the husband has jumped. ”

Hearing this, Qianxue handed the secret letter to Zhu Qiyu.

Zhu Qiyu shook his head: "You can just dismantle it." ”

Qian Xue received Zhu Qiyu's clear instructions, so she opened the secret letter, took out the letter, and read it aloud.

After listening carefully, the concubines couldn't help but admire. Lin Xiangyu asked curiously: "It turns out that soaking people in cold water can make people lose the ability to exercise the way of humanity.

really let the husband guess it, these methods used by the Miao people made King Xiang really bitter and couldn't say it. No one will admit to outsiders that they are incompetent. ”

Zhu Qiyu instructed: "Give some gold, silver and jewelry to the Xiangwang Mansion as a little heart for the royal family." As for these secrets, let's pretend not to know. ”

The concubines all nodded.

Zhu Qiyu hugged the concubines and continued to sleep.

Coincidentally.

In the afternoon, news came that the mission to Warat had returned to Beijing.

As soon as they arrived in Beijing, Li Xian and Li Shi would have heard what they saw, heard, said, and did in Wara.

Zhu Qiyu didn't look at it himself, and only asked Qianxue to read the recital again.

The most shocking news in it was that all the materials brought by the envoys were repatriated, and the poor Emperor Taishang was completely alone, herding sheep in Warat alone.

The more the favorite concubines listened, the more frightened they became, but Zhu Qiyu seemed to have expected it, and in the end, Qianxue's sweet and crisp voice became a hypnotic artifact, and Zhu Qiyu fell asleep directly.
