Chapter 78 The Unexpected Gift List

The feeling of a hangover is hard to describe. Riding on a horse, besides a headache, my stomach also feels uncomfortable.

When they arrived at the palace, Meng Qinghe's face began to turn pale.He regretted a little, he knew that he shouldn't have politely declined the kindness of Shen commanding his fellow passengers, compared to getting off a horse and being unable to walk in a straight line, seeing a person with three heads, what is face?

The guards of the palace inspected the badge, and an eunuch in a purple sunflower shirt came out to welcome him.

"Our family has met Commander Shen, Tongzhi Meng."

Meng Qinghe smiled and cupped his hands, "It's nothing to listen to."

Gou'er has been given the surname Bai by the King of Yan, which is similar to the surname Zheng given by San Bao.

Sanbao made contributions in Zhengcunba, Gou'er emerged in Baigouhe, Hou Xian was active in Mongolia, and several tribes have expressed their intention to move inland.Meng Twelve Lang had to sigh, Yan Wang was really crouching tiger, hidden dragon, even eunuchs were not easy.On the other hand, Emperor Jianwen, in addition to Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng and his ilk, the most useful thing is to add Li Jinglong. It is really not wrong to lose the throne.

King Yan was discussing matters in the Chengyun Hall today, except for Shen Xuan, Meng Qinghe, Zhang Yu, Zhu Neng, Tan Yuan, Xu Zhong and other generals.Zheng Heng and Chen Hui are considered the second echelon.General Chen Heng was seriously injured by Ping An in Baigou River, and he is still bedridden.They both commanded Teng Ju to die in the battle, Yan Wang had comforted his generals, and now Chen Heng and Teng Ju's subordinates sharpened their knives and vowed to avenge the general.

People are available.

Monk Daoyan took the opportunity to propose to King Yan that the right time, place and people are in harmony, and everything is ready. It is the best time to attack Hebei, attack Shandong, and attack Beijing.

"God gave it, why not take it?"

Dao Yan didn't need to say much, King Yan originally planned to rush out of Hebei and march towards the whole country.

The celebration banquet is to further gather people's hearts. By the way, let the subordinate Southern Army have a look, and follow Yan Wang to have meat to eat!

What is there to follow Zhu Yunqi, benevolence, righteousness and morality, the way of Confucius and Mencius?Can the doctrine of sages be eaten?A profession with the head pinned to the waistband must be practical!

Zhu Di is very good at speeches, and a few words can arouse beautiful associations in everyone.

Following Yan Wang's rebellion, he had meat to eat and wine to drink.On the day when the great cause is achieved, it is basic to divide the fields and houses, and it is not a problem to have a prosperous official career and beauties around the knees.Regarding the Mongolian cavalry who followed him to fight, Zhu Di said that he would not treat them badly, cattle and sheep are no problem, and pastures are no problem!Anyway, it's all empty promises, and I don't feel bad about how much I write.

The Yan Army was encouraged, the Southern Army was moved, and even the Mongol strong men burst into tears.

Changshengtian, this job is even more iron rice bowl than iron rice bowl.

Meals and lodging are all included, salaries are paid as they are, and year-end bonuses are not lacking in everything, and even major life events such as marrying a wife are handled by a dedicated person.

There is no better employer than Yan Wang, and he must follow Yan Wang to rebel!

Meng Qinghe walked into the hall one step behind Shen Xuan, and it was the first time he had heard Xuan Xuan officially discuss matters in the Chengyun Hall.It used to be that the level was not enough, but now it can be regarded as officially entered the core group of King Yan's rebel team?

When everyone arrived, King Yan immediately began to perform.

"Today, the young emperor was bewitched by treacherous officials. He violated the system of Emperor Taizu Gao, abandoned the laws of Emperor Taizu Gao, and followed the instructions of Emperor Taizu Gao to set up troops to pacify Nan. Great things have not been accomplished. I don’t know how to eat alone, I don’t know how to sleep at night, and my long skirt is wet with tears... Every time I think about it, I feel heartbroken!"

Meng Qinghe could memorize the same opening remarks.Just like Uncle Liu Huang in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms said that I am the queen of King Jing of Zhongshan, Emperor Hongwu's legacy is a sign that King Yan carried on his shoulders and a fig leaf for his rebellion.Even if his ears were calloused, he still had to talk every day, and the members of the gang organization who followed the rebellion had to listen too, and they had to listen excitedly, sincerely, and intoxicated.

When King Yan finished speaking, he immediately raised his arms high, the prince is wise, the prince is thousand years old, and the prince is mighty!Taizu Gao Emperor Quanxia knows, and he will definitely support the prince!

Without knowing it, Emperor Hongwu was completely "represented" once.

If he could express his protest, Zhu Yuanzhang would definitely kick open the gate of the imperial mausoleum and let out an angry roar, representing XX!When did Lao Tzu support his son to rebel against his grandson? !

It's a pity that Emperor Gao, the emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty who had been wise and martial all his life, was jumping up and down in the ground, and the whip was thrown violently, but it didn't affect the king of Yan in the slightest.

Walking on the broad road of rebellion is destined to be an arrow with no turning back.

Want to go back?Countless historical experiences have reminded Zhu Di that that would only lead to a faster death.

After setting the tone of the speech, everyone set up the stage, King Yan stood up, and expressed his feelings about the two or three things that Emperor Hongwu didn't like Emperor Jianwen and his son. The important task of Peiping was entrusted to myself.

"Beiping is the capital of the former dynasty, which is of great significance."

In a word, when Dad assigned him to Beiping, he must be thinking of passing the throne to him one day.Therefore, Emperor Jianwen's throne should have belonged to him in the first place!

No matter how far-fetched this reason is, whether it is tenable or not, everyone who listened to Zhu Di's speech all said that what His Royal Highness Yan Wang said is the truth!

Do not believe?Drag it out and chop it into puree!

It sounds a bit exaggerated, but after Zhu Di came to the throne, most of those who still expressed doubts about this "truth" did not end well, such as the diehard Fang Xiaoru.

As King Yan's speech reached its climax, everyone's expressions became more excited, and Meng Qinghe's head began to buzz.

However, there are not a few people like him in the palace.Obviously, many people at yesterday's celebration banquet were drunk, and it must have been unpleasant to be dragged to the Chengyun Hall to participate in the assembly and listen to the theory of rebellion early in the morning.

With a partner who had a headache, Meng Twelve Lang was not as uncomfortable as before.Seeing that others are more uncomfortable than him, regardless of the body, can always get some comfort psychologically.

"...So, Gu decided to send troops to Dezhou and attack Jinan!"

Finally, King Yan threw out his plan to enter Shandong.

Everyone was full of energy immediately, especially the strong men representing the Mongolian cavalry who participated in the meeting. Their eyes were bright and they were gearing up as if they had been stimulant.

Good war!

In today's battlefield situation, the Yan army has an absolute advantage.The imperial army, which claimed to be in the millions, was defeated by the Yan army, and they were driven out of Hebei like ducks.

Yu Tongyuan, Marquis of Yuexuan, and Qu Neng, a hero, died in the battle. Wu Jie, Marquis of Anlu, became a prisoner. In Yan Wang's mansion, he sat face to face with Zhang Lun, the former commander of Hebei Province who was captured by Shen Xuan, and remembered the glory of the past.Pingan, who was good at fighting, was defeated and retreated to Jinan. Wuding Hou Guoying ran to the west, and before he returned to the capital, he was dismissed from his official position by Emperor Jianwen.The old general was immediately disheartened, and his subordinates were no longer afraid.

After Xu Huizu led the crowd to intercept the Yan army halfway, he was about to enter Dezhou. Unexpectedly, Emperor Jianwen twitched again and ordered him to be recalled to Nanjing, and even Ping An was called away.

Who is left to guard Texas?Only the famous long-distance running champion Li Jinglong.

With such a god-given opportunity, Zhu Di felt sorry for his nephew's kindness if he didn't win Texas.

"Attack Texas!"

Dezhou has soldiers and food, and it is the only way to attack Jinan. If Dezhou is captured, Jinan is at your fingertips. If Jinan is captured, Shandong will fall into the pocket sooner or later.

If Shandong wins, will Nanjing be far behind?

After fighting on his own territory for so long, Zhu Di thought it was time to give Zhu Yunqi some color.

Listening carefully to King Yan's plan, Meng Qinghe couldn't help thinking about the bright future.

When it comes to military strategy, there are not many people in Ming Dynasty who can compare with King Yan.King Ning may be able to, but he has been tied to King Yan's chariot.Wei Guogong Xu Huizu is also one of them, Nair can't make his own decisions, and there is also Emperor Jianwen who often commits twitches on his head.

Who else can compete with King Yan?

Meng Qinghe patted his head, and a name suddenly popped into his mind, Tie Xuan.

All the good things were swept away immediately, and Meng Shierang was shocked, the Tiegong Temple is in Jinan!In history, the King of Yan was once defeated by Tie Xuan, and he came back from under the city of Jinan, and almost lost his life in a trick. Could it be this time?

Meng Qinghe was restless, King Yan had already made a battle plan with the generals.In the eyes of everyone, the people guarding Dezhou are just a group of defeated soldiers. They searched all over Shandong and could not find a general who can lead the army. This battle will undoubtedly be won.

In the middle of the battle meeting, King Yan was in such a good mood that he even joked with the generals, "In less than ten days, I will hold another celebration banquet in Jinan."

All the generals applauded loudly, Meng Qinghe clapped his hands together, but he couldn't say what was in his heart, he didn't want to be charged with disturbing the morale of the army.

The eldest son Zhu Gaochi, the king of Gaoyang Zhu Gaoxu and the third son Zhu Gaosui attended the whole meeting.

Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui followed the King of Yan to go out successively, and Zhu Gaochi defended Beiping. Since the King of Yan started his army, the three brothers have made great contributions.Especially Zhu Gaoxu, who fought bravely, took the lead in the battle of Baigouhe, and fought desperately to save King Yan into the enemy's line. After the battle, King Yan valued him even more.Now, his position beside King Yan is almost equal to that of Zhu Gaochi.

As the son of the royal family, Zhu Gaochi did not raise any objections to this.He knew that even if he mentioned it, it would be of no use, but it would only annoy his father.He could only behave more modestly and be more friendly to his brothers, which won a lot of compliments from King Yan.

On the surface, Zhu Gaochi and the three brothers and friends are respectful, but behind the scenes, they know each other well.

The King of Yan was all about calming down, so he inevitably ignored the turbulent undercurrent between his sons.

Concubine Yan is sick in bed. Although she has doctor Zhao to diagnose and treat her, she can only take care of her slowly. In addition, she has to teach the concubine Shizi, so she is powerless to deal with the increasingly difficult relationship between the three sons.

The palms of the palms and the backs of the hands are all flesh, and all three are biological, and it is not appropriate to favor any one.

Fortunately, Jing Nan has not yet succeeded, and the competition with Emperor Jianwen is still the biggest problem and the main contradiction facing the three brothers Zhu Gaochi.

Before the invasion of Nanjing, the three brothers were fighting each other in small ways, and they knew very well that it would not end well if the trouble became big now, because Emperor Jianwen took advantage of it.The torrent hidden under the table will really break out when King Yan ascends to the Ninth Five-Year Plan.

"Gao Chi, Gao Xu, what do you think about this matter?" After hearing the opinions of his subordinates, Zhu Di turned to look at his three sons, "Gao Sui, talk about it too."

Zhu Gaosui was getting older, and his tactful personality was gradually revealed. Hearing King Yan's question, he hurriedly said: "The two elder brothers are here, so how can the son speak."

Taking advantage of the situation, Zhu Gaoxu pretended to respect his elder brother, and said, "I would like to invite the son to speak first."

Zhu Gaochi couldn't be more humble, so he thought for a moment and said, "Going back to my father, I think it is not difficult to conquer Dezhou, but I need to make more preparations if I want to go to Jinan."

As soon as this remark came out, not only King Yan was surprised, but Meng Qinghe also looked over in amazement.

It is true that Zhu Gaochi is good at government affairs, but his military talent is not as good as the two brothers.Meng Qinghe only knew that Jinan City might not be able to be defeated after he opened the cheat, so where did he know it?

Nonsense?Unlikely.Zhu Gaochi didn't dare to do this in front of King Yan.

What is the reason for that?

"My son thought that the imperial court must be on guard when my father conquered Dezhou. Jinan is not as high as Dezhou. Going down to the city is no easy task." After a pause, Zhu Gaochi continued, "What I worry about is that my father only has three counties, and Jianwen leads the whole country. You can dispatch troops and generals. There are all the guards in the Southwest, especially Mu Sheng in Yunnan, father and king must not ignore it."

After speaking, Doutou poured cold water on Zhu Di.

King Min was exiled to Fujian because of Mu Sheng's denunciation.Whether Mu Sheng would support Emperor Jianwen to the end, Zhu Di was not sure, but he knew very well that Mu Sheng would never rebel with him.If the imperial court really issued an order, nine out of ten it would lead troops northward.

Thinking of this, Zhu Di's sweat came down.

Qianning Wang Muying is the adopted son of Emperor Hongwu, and his military strategy is not worse than that of the governor Ping'an, or even slightly better.Otherwise, Emperor Hongwu would not have ordered him to guard Yunnan.

Mu Sheng is Mu Ying's second son, heir to the title, as brave and good at fighting as his father and his elder brother who died young, and his army is especially good at using firearms.If he was transferred from Yunnan, Zhu Di would be in big trouble.

"Brother's words are wrong." When everyone fell into silence, Zhu Gaoxu stood up, with a heroic aura, as if he had been printed in the same mold as King Yan, "Mu Sheng was ordered by Emperor Taizu Gao to guard Yunnan, how could he be so easy?" Mobilization? Besides, the road from Yunnan to the capital is dangerous, even if he leads the troops, it will take several months. By then, my father will have already..."

"Gao Xu!"

King Yan stopped drinking, stopping Zhu Gaoxu's unspoken words.

"My son made a mistake." He said so, but there was no trace of panic on his face.Zhu Gaoxu didn't have time to think about why the son suddenly mentioned Mu Sheng, but it felt really good to be able to refute the other party face to face with reason and evidence.

Everyone in the world knew that King Yan was rebelling, but no one said it.Since he dared to make such a gesture, he expected that his father would not blame him.He was originally a "crazy" and "reckless" person. His father and all the generals present knew it very well, and no one cared if he went a little too far.

On the contrary, it is the crown prince, who cannot say that his remarks are wrong, but unfortunately there are almost no counselors in the palace, they are all soldiers who lead the army, and Zhang Yu, who is known as a Confucian general, may not agree with his words.

Zhu Gaoxu swung his palm out, and slapped Zhu Gaochi's face with no pressure.

Who asked Zhu Gaochi to stretch out his head to fan him?

After scolding Zhu Gaoxu, the King of Yan stroked his short mustache and said, "Although it's meaningless, it's justified."

As soon as the words came out, it was clear that he agreed with Zhu Gaoxu more.

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Zhu Gaochi's face, and he took a step back without making a sound.

Inside the Xinuang Pavilion, Dao Yan learned about the situation in the hall from the eunuch, and specifically asked, "Have the poor monks offered advice?"

"Back to the Buddha, Meng Tongzhi never said anything. It's just that our family watched, and Tongzhi's face seemed to be in a bad mood, like a hangover."

"Amitabha."

Dao Yan proclaimed the Buddha's name, and the apprentice he was optimistic about was really smart.The prince has already made up his mind, and there is a gully in his chest.Offering advice at this time is useless except to be eye-catching.

The prince's words may be justified, but the timing is wrong.The king of Gaoyang County has the demeanor of a prince, so he is a little impatient.

The eunuch saw that Dao Yan had stopped speaking, turned around and exited the Nuan Pavilion.

Without knowing anything about Meng Twelve Lang, he had already been labeled as a bad sect.

Monk Daoyan regarded himself as his master when he met everyone, and came down several times, from the king of Yan to the son, from the king of Gaoyang County to the government office of the palace, including the eunuchs and palace people around King Yan, all knew that Meng Tongzhi, the guard of Yanshan, was Monk Daoyan apprentice.

It doesn't make sense, why don't you live and die as a teacher?

It doesn't matter, you can create momentum in the public opinion, this is Dao Yan's housekeeping skill.When the master-student relationship between the two became known to everyone, even if Meng Qinghe jumped into the Yellow River, he would not be able to clear it up.

Meng Twelve Lang, who is old and spicy, is still a young green onion, so of course he is no match for Old Jiang Daoyan.

So, good disciple, come quickly to the master's bowl.

Dao Yan smiled slightly, [-]% kind, [-]% profound.

Meng Qinghe in the Chengyun Hall suddenly felt cold behind his back, and looked back subconsciously, illusion?

Shen Xuan noticed Meng Qinghe's actions, and asked in a low voice, "But you're not feeling well?"

"No." Meng Qinghe frowned, "I always feel..."

"what?"

"It's nothing, it's probably because I'm still hungover, I'm overthinking."

Shen Xuan nodded, looked away, and did not continue to ask.

But he made up his mind. It seemed that he had to practice his drinking capacity.

As Daoyan expected, King Yan was determined to attack Shandong, and asking the generals for their opinions was just a formality.

The battle plan was formulated, and the generals took orders, leaving the palace one after another, and returning to the camp to prepare.

Zhu Gaochi was still ordered to mobilize food, grass and weapons, and Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui were sent by King Yan to help the prince.Looking back at the two younger brothers who were following him, Zhu Gaochi had a terrible headache.

If it was Meng Qinghe, Zhu Gaochi would definitely raise his hands and call out to his father, Wang Yingming. If it was these two, it would be a waste of help, thank God.

Zhu Gaochi shook his head and sighed, no matter how helpless he was, he could only accept the fact.Meng Qinghe has been promoted to Yanshan Guard Tongzhi, from the third grade, he is not something he can easily dispatch.Without Meng Tongzhi, the efficiency of doing work related to numbers has slowed down a lot.

Before King Yan's battle meeting, Zhu Gaochi tried to discuss with his father whether he could accommodate him again, but of course he couldn't.I don't know whether King Yan sent Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui here out of compensation or other plans.

Not only Zhu Gaochi had a headache, but also Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui.

The three brothers looked at each other in blank dismay, with rare sympathy in their hearts.

When meeting such an old man who doesn't play cards according to the rules but has superb martial arts, it is absolutely impossible to resist, so he can only be honest and obedient.

Brothers are not easy.

Back outside the city, the army has not moved out of camp.

Shen Xuan asked the King of Yan for instructions, since he was going to send troops in a few days, why bother to bother in and out of the city, just set up camp outside the city.

King Yan thought about it carefully, and it was indeed the truth.Worried about Shen Xuan's injury, he ordered Dr. Liu to stay in the camp permanently, and on the day when the army departed, he must heal Shen Xuan's shoulder injury.

As you get promoted, you have more things to do.Commander Shen was wounded, and another colleague was heroic in the battle of Baigouhe, and all the affairs of Weizhong fell on Meng Qinghe's shoulders.Fortunately, there were three others to help share the burden. Otherwise, Meng Tongzhi would die from overwork and died on duty before the army set off.

"Qian Qian was seriously injured and can no longer serve in the military. Is there anyone to take command of the vacated position?"

Meng Qinghe looked through the roster in the army, except for those who had been with him since Kaipingwei, he didn't know much about most of the rest.

"Leave it empty for now." Shen Xuan had just changed his medicine, and put his hands on his shoulders, "I will be promoted after the battle with military merit."

This is a good idea, Meng Qinghe couldn't help but nodded.

There are more than a dozen thousand households in Weizhong, all of whom have military achievements, such as Zhao Qianhu and others, who have followed Shen Xuan since the time of Yanshan Zuowei.There is only one position, and it is not suitable to promote anyone.To promote one job, one thousand households will be vacated, and there will be more hundreds of households below. Just think about it, Meng Qinghe is one head and two big.

It was Shen Xuan's good idea. In terms of military exploits, everyone was evenly matched before. After this battle, there will definitely be a winner.

In terms of military exploits, no one can say anything.

Apart from the incident, the Yanshan defender still has a vacant position as a colleague.Shen Xuan could not make the decision in this position, he had to ask King Yan for instructions.Including the candidates for the matter, the final implementation can only be finalized after the king of Yan nods.

"My lord has set a departure date." Shen Xuan signaled Meng Qinghe to sit down, "Do you want to go home and have a look?"

Come back home?

Meng Qinghe shook his head, now is not the time to go back, the outcome of this battle is unpredictable, make more mistakes and make less mistakes, it is the best policy to follow Commander Shen closely.

In case King Yan lost the battle, he would find someone to vent his anger on, but he would not find it on his own head.

"not going back?"

"There is nothing to do at home in a humble job, just wait for the army to return home and visit."

"That's fine." Shen Xuan said, "If you don't return, your family will always take care of you."

As he spoke, he handed a list to Meng Qinghe, which listed the amount of cloth, grain, mutton and various spices, as well as sugar and pastries.

Meng Qinghe raised his head, what does this mean?

Commander Shen smiled brightly, and the gentleman calmly said, "Since the first visit, I have never visited the door again, so I can only use this to express my heart."

Meng Qinghe lowered his head and continued to look, his eyes got bigger and bigger.

Cloth, grain, mutton and spices are all daily necessities, and sugar and pastries are also reasonable.

But what about copper coins, gold and silver ingots, and jade carvings?

Besides, there are two wild geese?

Meng Qinghe was not calm anymore, his hand holding the list was shaking a little, "Commander, this is it?"

Shen Xuan raised his eyebrows, "I hunted it myself, and Twelve Lang will keep it."

Meng Qinghe: "..."

Keep it?

Luanfeng jade pendants can't be collected casually, can wild geese accept them?

Looking at Shen Xuan, then at the list, Meng Qinghe really wanted to cover his face.

If you put the list in your hand back and act as if you didn't see anything, what are the chances of getting out safely?

It seems that it is less than half.
