Unofficial History of Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty

The people who were stopped outside cheered happily, and the invisible children clamored to be hugged by their parents, hoping to see the heroic and mighty Emperor Zhengde.The capital city of Datong is not far away, and the common people have naturally heard about the deeds of Emperor Zhengde's imperial conquest.A new story has been compiled in the teahouse, which is about the great victory in Yingzhou.Wang Xun, Sun Zhen and others became famous overnight because of this, and became well-known heroes. They were passed on in the streets and alleys, and Emperor Zhengde was even praised to the sky.

At this time, the Immediate Emperor Zhengde had put away his cynical expression in the past. He was wearing a golden armor and a red feather on his helmet, which set off his handsome and extraordinary silhouette.Jiang Bin glanced at him sideways, and suddenly remembered that night, Emperor Zhengde asked him to Ying Huo Xing whether it was a blessing or a curse.

Zhang Yong and Zhang Zhong remained calm and listened to the discussion of the people below, they didn't mind at all, as eunuchs, it was enough for them to be able to do this.Wang Xun's face was sullen and expressionless, not because he was arrogant, but because his heart hadn't recovered from the battlefield, and he was still thinking about how to deal with the Mongol invasion in the future.Zhang Min was looking at Sun Zhen, but Sun Zhen enjoyed it quite a bit, and waved to the people with a silly smile.A group of people walked slowly like this, and the generals who were sunburned by the flowers and fruits thrown by them were embarrassed, their injuries didn't hurt, and they were refreshed.

Walking in front of all the officials, Emperor Zhengde took the lead in pulling the reins.All the officials lowered their heads, and they couldn't tell which one was which. They only knew that the one with white beard and white eyebrows in front was Jiang Mian.Emperor Zhengde got off his horse, took over the wine served by Jiang Mian, acting chief assistant, and drank it all in one gulp, then ordered Li Shichun and Xiao Jui to escort the thousand captives to the school yard to take care of them. Another treat.Then he took Jiang Bin, Zhang Yong, Zhang Zhong and several Jin Yiwei to the Leopard Room.

Tang He looked back, and he could recognize the bowed figure at a glance.

After Emperor Zhengde left, the people gradually dispersed, and officials who had not received any order from Emperor Zhengde still knelt in the street in embarrassment until Jiang Mian ordered someone to ask Emperor Zhengde for instructions, and then they dragged their tired bodies to return home. bit.

On the way back to the Leopard Room, Jiang Bin patted the petals on his body and said, "A lot of them are old..."

Emperor Zhengde didn't turn his head, the red feathers on his helmet made people dizzy: "It's just reciprocating."

Jiang Bin didn't know why, so he didn't ask any further questions. When Fang returned to the Leopard Room, he was staggered by the ecstatic Wang Wei.

Jiang Bin weighed the little hair ball that licked his saliva all over his face. The little guy really got fat.A few court ladies looked around secretly, Jiang Bin guessed that the little guy should be taken care of by them these days, so he smiled at them, and the few palace ladies blushed, and disappeared as soon as they waved the silk.

Emperor Zhengde entered the house and stretched out his hand to call Jiang Bin to take off his armor for him.Jiang Bin took off the golden armor and let people hold it down, and took off his coat and boots for him.

Emperor Zhengde's body loosened quickly, he turned his neck, lay down on the collapsed bed, pulled Jiang Bin into his arms, but accidentally crushed the wound on his shoulder, screaming in pain.Seeing Emperor Zhengde grinning but still refusing to let go, Jiang Bin felt amused and stopped pushing him.

It was a very hot day, and both of them were sweating, but they just felt that they were stuck together.Outside, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and the sound of silk and bamboo is endless.Emperor Zhengde closed his eyes comfortably and sighed: "Finally back..."

After a moment of silence, he opened his eyes and knocked on Jiang Bin, only to see him looking at him with a half-smile: "What do you think?"

"Your majesty is like this..." Jiang Bin glanced at the arms wrapped around Emperor Zhengde, "It's like a hen nestling in a nest."

Emperor Zhengde was silent for a moment, twisted Jiang Bin's thigh and smiled.

Chest tremors came from the tight chests of the two. Jiang Bin looked down at Emperor Zhengde's fingers, recalling the tight grip on the battlefield, and the knife he blocked for himself. Emotions surfaced again at this moment, entangled all thoughts into melodious piano sounds.

"Your majesty has to ask the imperial doctor to see this injury." Leaving scars is a minor matter, and if there is some hidden disease buried because of it, it is an unforgivable crime.

Emperor Zhengde put his arms around Jiang Bin and said, "Worried about my failure?"

Jiang Bin felt awkward, turned his eyes away and said, "I heard that during this period of time, the empress and the empress dowager ate fast every day to pray for blessings, so as to keep the emperor safe."

"Why are you mentioning them again?" Emperor Zhengde wrinkled and touched Si Nanpei on Jiang Bin's waist.

Jiang Bin shut up, let Emperor Zhengde hold him, after a while, he fell asleep.

The celebration banquet was ordered by Emperor Zhengde a long time ago. The Hall of Supreme Harmony, which can accommodate tens of thousands of people to worship and celebrate, is magnificent. Palace lanterns stretch out, maids and guards line up on both sides, and the aroma of incense burners rises, filling the deep Taihe. The Palace of Harmony wraps around like an endless fairy palace.One person, one table, melons, fruits and desserts are displayed on it, and the neatly arranged pear wood table complements the dim yellow tone of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

However, the rows in the middle were all empty—all the officials of the Imperial Academy were absent, and half of the officials were absent.The remaining half are here to criticize. After singing praises at Honglu Temple and Emperor Zhengde rewarding the generals, they jumped out and said that this time Emperor Zhengde sneaked out to participate in this small-scale negligible incident regardless of safety. It is misfortune for all officials to shame the country by bringing a few prisoners back from the war to deceive the world.

Emperor Zhengde sat high on the throne, propped his head up and listened to the accusations from the officials citing scriptures, then glanced at the stern-faced military officers under the seat, and smiled slowly: "Which chief assistant instigated it? "

In the morning, everyone was still dressed in fancy clothes to welcome them, but in the evening they all suddenly changed the direction of the wind.If there is no one to provoke, no one will believe it. Jiang Mian naturally does not have the guts, Yang Yiqing is still recuperating at home.

Jiang Bin looked at Emperor Zhengde at the table.The leader is the Hanlin Academy.Isn't Yang Shen in the Imperial Academy?But he is only compiling, and who is hiding behind it is very clear.Yang Shoufu Ding You, three years later, will eventually come back.Jiang Bin can already foresee how the battle of Yingzhou will be described in the history and records of the country a hundred years after Emperor Zhengde.

A deep sense of powerlessness grew and entrenched in my heart along with the lingering fragrance.The joy of returning home with good news made no trace of this tense stalemate.

Emperor Zhengde waved his hand, causing the officials to retreat, and the Hall of Supreme Harmony suddenly became quiet, like a huge coffin, wrapped in anguish that had nowhere to vent.

After a short silence, Emperor Zhengde raised his glass on the throne, and thanked all the military officers who were born and died in the Battle of Yingzhou with a loud voice.The military officers also stood up in unison to pay respect, raised their wine glasses, and drank them all in one gulp.That glass of wine burned in his throat and heart.After taking his seat, Emperor Zhengde moved his fingers, and the silk and bamboo dancer, jade plate and delicacies dazzled his eyes.

The joy of singing and dancing, but it couldn't dispel the frustration on the faces of the military officers who returned from victory. The civil servants present obediently ate the dishes on their desks, and occasionally toasted each other to break the embarrassment.After drinking for three rounds, the grand banquet broke up hastily.

Jiang Bin and Zhang Yong helped Emperor Zhengde, who had come up with Jiu Jin, go back to the Leopard Room, and when he turned back, Wang Xun was waiting for him outside the hall. "I'll go back early tomorrow morning. I'm afraid you won't be able to take care of me, so I will say goodbye first."

In the morning of tomorrow, Jiang Bin has to serve Emperor Zhengde and has to deal with a lot of military affairs, so he might not be able to send him off in time.For Wang Xun's mother-in-law's thoughtfulness, while being grateful, I feel more guilty.

Wang Xun chatted with Jiang Bin about innocuous words for a while, and then said, "Don't worry about what happened today."

Jiang Bin was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "I should say that."

Wang Xun looked at him and smiled without saying a word. After a while, he untied the safety talisman from his waist and handed it to him: "Take care."

Even when he was on the verge of death, he still had a playful smile on his face, but Jiang Bin is not used to being so serious now.Both of them knew that according to the current situation, Jiang Bin had stepped into another precarious situation.There is no gunpowder in this battlefield, but it is more dangerous and dangerous.Only by walking on thin ice and step by step can we be comprehensive.

West out of Yangguan for no reason.

Jiang Bin returned to the Leopard Room alone with the palace lantern.The sweat has been dried, and the person is more awake. Looking at the stars in the sky that are flickering and dimming, I think that I have seen it like this before I left Beijing.If it wasn't for the pain from the wound on his abdomen, he would really think that the whole scene of humiliation was nothing more than a dream.

Emperor Zhengde, who had been drunk, had just downed a bowl of hangover soup. When he saw Jiang Bin came back, he pointed at himself with a sad face and said, "My mouth is bitter."

Jiang Bin had no choice but to find a few red bayberries that he ate at the dinner and came back.After soaking in salt water for a while, put it on a plate, Emperor Zhengde opened his mouth and waited for him to feed it, Jiang Bin fed it, but he put it in his mouth again and said, "I'll share half of it for you."

In the past, he would have turned a deaf ear and left, but today for some reason, when his head got hot, he really bent over and swallowed it.Emperor Zhengde, who was about to wake up, was stunned for a moment. He opened his eyes but couldn't get the focus right, and only touched a hairy head.Zhang Yong, who was still waiting on the sidelines, reacted quickly, and immediately retreated outside the door with a group of red-faced maids.

After closing the door, the only sound left in the room was the breathing of the two entangled in one place.

With a flicker of the light, a bayberry fell to the ground at some point...
