Li Qing thought hard and prescribed a side weight loss pill to Xiaopang.

It is mainly used to reduce appetite, supplemented by light skewers, so that Xiaopang can eat less and Dora, so as to achieve weight loss.

The effect is very significant, only half a month, Xiaopang has lost more than ten pounds.

Xiao Fat is like a treasure, and he is happy in his heart, Brother Qing's medicine allows him to lose weight without working hard, except for going to the toilet more frequently, which is good.

So he was ready to get rid of the title of fat man completely in one go, and began to increase the dosage of medicine.

Outside the latrine.

Yang Shiqi and Yang Rong, the two secretaries, all of them were so red that they were suffocating, reading one by one, and Xiaopang was single-minded, handling government affairs while stringing thin.

There is no way, Lao Tzu is busy dispatching armaments, and all the government affairs are pressing him here.

Two quarters of an hour later, the little fat snorted and chirped, "You two come in to help the lonely one, the lonely foot is numb." ”

“…… Obey the order. The two looked at each other, took a deep breath, and opened the door of the hut.

Although Xiaopang has lost some weight, his weight is still more than 200 yuan, and it took a lot of effort for the two of them to help him out, and he couldn't stand up straight.

"This medicine is really powerful." Xiaopang sighed, "In the future, I have to add a stool to the pit, and squatting all the time is not a thing." ”

Two: "......"

Yang Rong said tentatively, "His Royal Highness the Prince, the emperor has been busy dispatching military supplies during this time, is he going to go on a northern expedition?" ”

"Just do your part." Xiaopang said lightly, "The civil and military forces perform their duties and do not interfere with each other. ”

Yang Rong's heart sank, and he nodded yes.

He glanced at Yang Shiqi, who also looked helpless, and shook his head with a wry smile.

In their opinion, the Northern Expedition is really unnecessary, the Ming Dynasty has the Great Wall and artillery, and only needs to guard the frontier, and there is no need to waste money and money for the Northern Expedition.

But they are soft-spoken, and even if they have opinions in their hearts, they dare not mention them openly.

Yang Rong did not give up and said: "Listen to Xia Shangshu and say that the treasury of the Ming Dynasty is tight......"

"Okay, Lone's feet are no longer numb." Xiaopang motioned that the two of them didn't need to help them anymore, "You two go back and rest, and later call Huang Huai and Jin Youzi to the East Palace to take over." ”

The two of them sneered: "The minister retired." ”

Xiaopang looked at the back of the two leaving, and whispered to himself: "Since the Tang Dynasty, civil officials have gradually overpowered military generals, and in the Song Dynasty, Wenchen has reached the peak, it is true that these two people are loyal and patriotic, but it is also true that they despise military generals and want to suppress them." ”

He sighed, "My father is here, but if my father is gone, what if I am gone." ”

"What do you think?"

Xiao Fat was excited, and when he turned around, he saw that it was Li Qing, and he didn't have a good breath, "Scare me." ”

Then, he pulled Li Qing to the pavilion and sat down, and said his worries, "Brother Qing, do you have a way?" ”

Li Qing pondered for a long time and shook his head slowly, "The rise of Wenchen in the future is inevitable, because there are not so many battles to fight in the world, and there are ......"

He smiled wryly, "Silk, porcelain, tea...... The imperial court almost cut off the way for the rich gentry to make money, the gentry and civil officials were not separated, and after the emperor was eternal, they absolutely resisted. ”

Xiaopang pondered for a moment, "If the second child is the prince, the situation should be much better." ”

"It's useless." Li Qing shook his head, "He can't grasp it, and he doesn't have the ability, Emperor Taizu fought little by little, and the emperor also fought all year round, and the battle of Jingjing paved the way, so that it was like this, and the emperor in the future will not have this political soil." ”

Xiaopang smiled helplessly: "In this way, one day, Daming will go downhill." ”

Li Qing was silent, for so long, he had a deep understanding of the dynastic feudal society, and under the effect of the laws of historical cycles, it was really difficult for individuals to resist.

Even the emperor of the Ninety-Five Emperor was powerless.

As strong as the Han and Tang dynasties, it gradually declined, which was a common problem of feudal dynasties, and with the development of history, class contradictions gradually emerged and deepened, and finally went to extinction.

Xiaopang said distressedly: "Brother Qing, I'm so entangled now, it's impossible for me to control the generals, he will ascend to the big treasure one day, I'm afraid that he can only use Wenchen, this time, it is likely to give his descendants a bad start." ”

"I can't say that." Li Qingdao said, "There are few civil servants to govern the world, and the time for governing the country is far more than the time for war, even if you don't use civil servants, the emperor in the future will also use it;

Moreover, if everyone is Emperor Wu, the Ming Dynasty can't afford it, it is easy to fight the country, but it is difficult to defend the country;

Rest with the people, let the people live a good life, and be a good emperor! ”

Xiaopang nodded lightly and ended this heavy topic, "You and I can't see these anymore, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, we can only try our best to do our best, as for the future...... I don't have a chance to worry about it. ”

Li Qing nodded and said with a smile: "How is your health lately, seeing that you have lost some weight, do you feel uncomfortable?" ”

"A little." Xiaopang said with a bitter face, "I don't have much energy due to my loss of appetite, and I always have diarrhea, and my hands and feet are weak." ”

"The medicine I prescribed didn't work so much!" Li Qing was surprised, "Did you increase the dosage of medicine?" ”

Chubby sneered, "I don't want to lose weight quickly." ”

"It's important to be physical." Li Qingdao said, "You are my fat, I have nothing to do with thinness in this life, as long as you are not fat enough to affect your health." ”

"......" Xiaopang stretched his waist and changed the topic again: "During this time, my father has been busy getting armaments, and he doesn't care about government affairs, let's go, someone has to do something." ”

……

After a busy afternoon, Li Qing got off work at the end of the day, and when he left, he prescribed a nourishing prescription to Xiaopang, so that he could recuperate well.

I got home, took a hot shower, and enjoyed life.

Li Qing leaned comfortably on the recliner, the courtyard was covered with layers of fallen leaves, and under the afterglow of the sunset, it was shining brightly, and it was pleasing to the eye.

~

In Layue, more than 60 treasure ships were built.

The weaving bureau in Jiangnan, the porcelain kiln in Jiangxi, and the tea ...... in Daming A steady stream of them were brought to Beijing to prepare for maritime trade.

At the same time, Zhu Di also completed the transfer of troops, and even the sailors were transferred.

Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.

Soon, the east wind came.

A member of the royal family in Annam was found, and under the escort of the Xuanwei Division, he came to the Daming Post House to live temporarily.

Zhu Di was overjoyed to learn the news, and at noon, he met in front of hundreds of civil and military officials.

"Junior Minister Chen Tianping, meet His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty!"

This Annam royal Han speaks well, although with a strong accent, but at least he can understand it.

But what the other person said, I didn't understand.

"Flat!" Zhu Di and Yan Yue said, "I heard that the person in power in Annan is not a member of your royal family, but a relative surnamed Li who governs on his behalf, why is this?" ”

Chen Tianping got up in thanks, then knelt down again, and cried: "I ask His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty to be the master of the ministers." ”

"Oh?" Zhu Di was very concerned and asked, "What grievances do you have?" ”

"Back to His Majesty the Emperor, Jianwen ...... Ah no, in the thirty-third year of Hongwu, his relatives rebelled against Li Jichen, murdered the king, and then forced his five-year-old grandson Chan to give up the throne! ”

Chen Tianping said angrily: "Your Majesty the Emperor, Li Jichen is not ruling on behalf of him at all, he is usurping the throne!" ”

"Hiss~"

Suddenly hearing such news, the ministers were all in an uproar, this melon is really big enough.

Zhu Di was furious when he heard this: "Li Jichen is so bold! ”

As soon as Chen Tianping saw the play, he immediately climbed up the pole, "Annan is a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, and I hope that His Majesty the Emperor will be the master of the ministers." ”

After a pause, he said: "Li Jichen not only deceived His Majesty the Emperor, but he also forcibly invaded Zhancheng, one of the vassal states of the Ming Dynasty, and followed the example of the Ming Dynasty, giving court clothes and official seals, and making Zhancheng a vassal. ”

Chen Tianping pointed to another person, "He is one of the envoys sent by the king of Champa to pay tribute, and he was robbed by Li Jichen in the middle of the road, and he escaped by luck." ”

The man Abba Abba nodded, indicating that Chen Tianping was right.

"Presumptuous!"

"Bold!"

"Arrogance!"

At this time, not only Zhu Di, but also the ministers were all furious, and Li Jichen was undoubtedly challenging the authority of the Ming Dynasty by doing so.

Wenchen's anger was still better than that of the generals, and they kept horning one by one, strongly demanding that Li Jichen be severely punished, but he did not mention sending troops to levy, but only suggested that Zhu Di send someone to ask for the guilt.

To their surprise, Zhu Di readily agreed, and did not insist on sending troops, but said to Chen Tianping: "Who are you from the old king?" ”

"Back to His Majesty the Emperor, the minister is also the grandson of the old king."

"Okay, I canonize you as the new king of Annam, and send someone to escort you back to Annam."

Chen Tianping couldn't believe his ears, and was stunned for a while before he came back to his senses and kowtowed busily.

……

The matter was solved perfectly, Wenchen also breathed a sigh of relief, and everything was happy.

Zhu Di ordered the Jinyi guards to escort the prince Chen Tianping to Annan, and at the same time sent the imperial history to hold him accountable.

~

Three months later, Jin Yiwei and Yushi returned and brought back a news that shocked the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty.

- Chen Tianping was killed by Li Jichen!

The kings appointed and dismissed by the Ming court are, in a sense, officials of the Ming Dynasty.

In doing so, Li Jichen is no different from an open rebellion.

After Zhu Di heard this, he was so angry that the table was lifted, and he said that he would immediately send troops to conscript.

This time, Wenchen was not angry, and even Xia Yuanji, who was greedy for money, did not object.

Li Jichen repeatedly challenged the authority of the Ming Dynasty, and the king who had just been canonized by the Ming Dynasty said that he would kill him, and they all openly rebelled, who would he get if he didn't get him?

Da Ming sent troops to conscript, which is justified.

Due to the thorough preparation for the preliminary work, the troops were dispatched in early May.

Chengguo Gong Zhu Neng, Xincheng Hou Zhang Fu, Congguang. Starting from the west, Xiping Hou Musheng, Fengcheng Hou Li Bin, from Yun. Departure from the south.

300,000 troops, 800,000, to conquer Annam.
