[Zhu Ning] For the sake of the country
Chapter 6
(six)
Wu Liangha in Daning City came out to attack the Ming army without success, and was directly wiped out by King Ning's troops, and the Wala people who were mixed in the city were also captured alive, and they are being escorted into the tent of the Chinese army at the moment.
Daning City finally returned to Daming after many years. King Ning directly ordered someone to write a memorial and report it to the capital, and the Six Departments of the Cabinet immediately replied that they would take over.King Ning sneered, he hadn't seen the border reinforcements for a long time, and he replied slowly only after winning the battle, and just threw the document away and ignored it.
After the captured Oirat was held for many days, King Ning took all the time to "visit". He invited the man to the tent of the Chinese army, and served a banquet to show his sincerity.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Prince Hasa." King Ning put on a full smile, and personally bowed his hands as a greeting ceremony for a Han Chinese.
"Hmph!" Although Hasa was removed from the shackles and knew that there was no escape, he still felt resentful. He gave King Ning a blank stare, "I'm not afraid of killing or cutting!"
King Ning still smiled, "Prince Hasa has a high status in Wala, and this time he is negotiating peace with Wuliangha. How can such an important person be killed casually?" The mighty prince of the wilderness.
Hasa always felt that King Ning's words sounded like irony to himself. He was uneasy, but he couldn't find the fault. "That's good, let me go back. I'll ask my father to send beautiful women and treasures to thank you." Hasa shook He lifted his head and put on a very rascal expression.
King Ning's expression remained unchanged, but the smile in his eyes gradually turned into contempt, "Oh, how much treasure is the prince worth?"
Outside the tent, some generals from the capital came to discuss military matters with King Ning. Hearing the voice from inside the tent, he stopped and waited outside.
Hasa took a few sips of wine unceremoniously, "I'm not afraid that you will ask for a price, but I am afraid that you will not be able to move it. We in Wala have a lot of treasures, and there are many more beauties than you in the Central Plains."
"Prince Hasa, I can't estimate how much treasure you are worth, but if it falls into the hands of your eldest prince, how much does he think you are worth?" King Ning looked at Hasa with great interest.
"What do you mean?"
"Oh, this king is writing a letter to ask your eldest prince Tuoqi for a price." King Ning raised his glass and invited Hasa to drink and chat.
Oirat Khan has two sons, the eldest prince has both military merit and esteem, and is the best candidate to succeed the Great Khan, but these six princes are also ambitious and covet Khan's throne. King Ning has already seen Hasa's intentions, The sixth prince colluded with Wuliangha and instigated him to attack the border of Ming Dynasty, so as to win Wuliangha's help and recruit soldiers for himself to ascend to the Khan position.At this moment, Wuliangha was defeated and Da Ming recaptured the territory. His plan failed, and he was very angry. He was very hostile to King Ning, but King Ning said a few words to discourage him. I scolded King Ning all over my heart.
Hasa's expression was not good, and it seemed that he was poked at the center of the matter by himself. King Ning rolled his eyes and came up with an idea to deal with Wala.
"Prince Waratozzi is very famous, and all the Wala people praise him for his loyalty. It's rare that Prince Hasa doesn't think so?" King Ning pretended to ask.
"Hmph!" Hasa rolled his eyes again.
"Prince Hasa doesn't need to be so caring. This king has a way to make your wishes come true."
"What way?" Hasa learned of King Ning's tricks, lost the city and became a prisoner, and was very wary of him, rolled his eyes and asked.
"Hehe, Prince Hasa stayed here for several months to help Wuliangha, in fact, he was accumulating his own strength, in order to seek the throne of Oara Khan, right?" King Ning said straight away.
Hasa was not guilty of being exposed, and still proudly said, "So what? Oh? I know, they are all spreading the news, King Ning, you also want to seize the military power of your emperor, and then rebel, right? You are here this time. Daning just wanted to regain the fiefdom of your ancestors, so that he could stand against your capital, and then look for opportunities to break through the capital and become emperor himself? So, you think of me that way, right?"
Outside the tent, the faces of the generals from the court changed drastically, their bodies trembling slightly as if they knew about the earth-shattering conspiracy, and they immediately wanted to lift the curtain to break in, confront King Ning face to face, and see if he was a traitor or not.
After hearing this, King Ning couldn't help laughing, and the laughter interrupted the imagination of the people outside the tent, "The sun and the moon are shining brightly, shining forever. My Ming Dynasty has thousands of miles of territory and millions of soldiers. I have never been afraid of you Mongolia. It's just that since ancient times, when wars broke out, the people suffered. , corpses are strewn all over the field, this king cherishes the power of the people, and does not want the two clans to have more wars, so, Prince Hasa, this king helps you ascend the throne of Khan, and in the future you and my two clans will be allies." King Ning With a loud voice and the undeniable majesty of a superior, even Hasa couldn't help but be impressed by this magnanimity.
Hasa doesn't trust King Ning very much, but King Ning's conditions are too tempting. Anyway, he has been captured by Daming, and his life or death is not in his hands. , Hasa understood the meaning from King Ning's eyes, he reached out to take the wine glass handed over by King Ning, drank it down, and expressed his acquiescence, "This is what the heroes see and agree with." King Ning looked satisfied. Hasa nodded.
"You don't have to tell me that those Han people can understand the language, I just ask you, how to do it?" Hasa turned sideways, changed a comfortable posture, and asked with squinting eyes.
It was night now, the bonfire in the tent was bright, and King Ning's eyes were shining brightly. Even a formidable enemy could feel his magnanimity, and couldn't help following the guidance in his words.
The people outside the tent were very close, their faces had already been covered with the tent, but they could no longer hear King Ning's voice clearly, only Xu Xu's few words, could not tell what the two of them were talking about, and only repeated the same sentence in their ears ——The sun and the moon shine brightly, shining forever.
At the end, I heard Hasa laughing wantonly, "When things come to fruition, what King Ning promised will be fulfilled!"
King Ning stared at Hasa without responding. After a while, he said slowly, "Then they are spreading what you just said. Who are they referring to?" King Ning was still talking and laughing just now. It was as if a different person had changed at the time, with ruthless eyes and sinister eyes. Hasa was frightened and couldn't react for a while, "Ah? What, what?"
"Just now the sixth prince said that they are all saying that this king intends to seize power and usurp the throne?" King Ning raised his eyes and pressed on step by step.
"Oh, oh," Hasa stuttered, and just blurted out casually just now. King Ning has made great contributions to Daming. If you don't mention it in good faith, you must kill the person who spread the rumors, "Isn't this your wish, my lord? If you want to seize the throne, I am willing to help you. After that, our two clans will be an iron-clad alliance." gone."
King Ning threw the wine glass heavily to the ground, and with a loud bang, the fragments splashed everywhere. The soldiers outside the tent heard the noise, and hurriedly held the weapons in their hands, and entered through the curtain, and gathered in the tent. Soldiers, the edge of the weapon flashed cold light, Hasa stared blankly, not daring to move.
"Is your lord all right?" Shan Zhou, the leader, asked worriedly.
"Prince Hasa, this king is the descendant of the emperor Zhu, who swears to defend the Daming country to the death. If such rebellious words are heard in your ears again, you just hand over the person who sent the message to this king, and this king will definitely be the king." First and foremost!" King Ning drew out the sword on the handsome table, the blade was out of the sheath, and the light reflected from the blade was projected on King Ning's cheek, making people feel terrified, King Ning put the sword back into the scabbard after he finished speaking.
There was a moment of silence in the tent, no one dared to answer.King Ning glanced at the crowd, then turned to Hasa who was standing still, and said in a slow tone, "The prince is now my king's distinguished guest. Today, the army has prepared good wine and danced with swords to add to the fun. Come, please sit by the bonfire outside the tent. Let’s talk again.” Hasa regained his composure, smiled and said yes again and again, and escaped from the Chinese army tent, and went to the outskirts to have a feast and have fun.
After all the soldiers retreated, Shan Zhou whispered to King Ning's ear, "My lord, the imperial court sent troops to support. The man who commanded the troops was here just now, but now he has disappeared..." King Ning was taken aback, and then understood Knowing the key point, he asked with concern, "Where is this person now? What is his name and what position does he hold?"
"I don't know, he has a golden and jade token, and he can't be blocked from entering or leaving the important places of the palace barracks." Shan Zhou answered very smoothly, didn't the prince capture the Wala people, just to let the people come to see the credit of the prince.
King Ning understands that there are only three people in the whole world who can get this gold and jade token, so this time, is it the emperor who sent him to show his kindness or power?No matter what, you have to find this person first.
"Fortify a hundred miles around, and don't miss a single person. This king will go to meet the distinguished guests of the court in person!"
On the open space outside the tent, uninhibited military music is wildly played, and everyone gathers around the bonfire to drink and barbecue, celebrating the victory. At this moment, there is no high or low, only the feeling of adversity, and the feelings of the people in the army are open and enthusiastic. It is a celebration of victory. Let them completely throw away the red tape between the world, only pure laughter and unbridled celebration.Laughter, singing, and applause were intertwined, and it was very lively. King Ning patrolled the camp alone. He searched the camp but did not see any visiting generals. Countless soldiers around him brushed past him full of joy, but no one came. He was always feeling uneasy.
The distant sound of the horn was heard in the distance, which was a signal for the reinforcements to join. This was the usual practice of the Ming army. When the defenders of Daning City heard the sound of the horn, they also blew the same sound at the top of the city to join forces with the friendly forces.
King Ning instantly thought of a place, and he rode his horse and galloped towards the city of Daning. At this moment, snowflakes were floating in the sky, and a bonfire was lit in the dark night, and white snow was flying everywhere.King Ning stepped on the city wall to a high place, and finally saw a figure overlooking the vast and vast land. Although King Ning had already obtained the important place here, he never entered the city. In Jiangxi, keep a low profile and keep a low profile all day long. The previous generation of King Ning has long been recorded in the history books, and there will be no more official history of King Yan's succession in the Ninth Five-Year Plan. If the accumulation over the years is to show off his ambition He Hongtu, then this time the troops are dispatched only to prove that he is a descendant of the Zhu surname, the country of the Ming Dynasty, the old land of the past, will never allow foreigners to get involved, even if they risk their lives.
King Ning finally saw the back of the visitor clearly, and all the greetings and greetings he had planned to meet with the important officials in the court were all abolished, his expression gradually became gloomy, and he could not move forward or retreat.
The general who came to take over here was none other than the emperor, and the emperor came to the border in person.
Zhu Houzhao heard the footsteps and didn't know who was coming, so he looked back instinctively. In the dark night, amidst the snow and snow, King Ning was standing in front of him, silent. He was dressed in light armor, with a sword around his waist and a Xiu cloak, Zhu Houzhao did not expect that the person who came was Ning Wang, his heart was overwhelmed, but there was only a smile on his face slowly, he was wearing the emperor's armor, but there was no dragon pattern decoration, he walked in a hurry, and he did not have thick clothes to keep out the cold in the cold night , he rubbed his frozen hands together, his voice was a little nasal, like ordinary friends meeting each other, and he said in a normal tone, "I don't have any relatives around me, so I miss the emperor very much..." The white The breath dissipated, and King Ning could see Zhu Houzhao's reddened nose and hands.
I haven't seen each other for a few months, which dilutes the anger in my heart. The reunion of people from afar evokes a little warmth inherent in people's hearts, and even a little affection. King Ning coughed lightly, and performed a courtier's gift, "slightly The minister kowtowed to the emperor."Zhu Houzhao had already come to him, "Uncle Huang, you don't need to be too polite. I came out in a low-level suit, so it's inconvenient to reveal my identity."
King Ning was puzzled for a moment, but didn't say much, "The terrain here is excellent. It is an important frontier fortress of my Ming Dynasty. The emperor returned this place to my Ming Dynasty. I really don't know how to thank the emperor." Looking around, Zhu Houzhao had already I have memorized the maps by heart, and having been here today, I naturally understand the border matters better.
"Please don't thank me." King Ning's voice was as cold as if soaked in snowflakes.
Zhu Houzhao didn't mind either, and smiled to himself, "There is nothing in the world that can defeat the emperor's uncle."
"Your Majesty, the border is bitterly cold, the Eucharist is important, let's go back to the station first, Ji Rong should be nearby, I will invite him to serve the Emperor back to the imperial tent." Now that the Emperor has come, King Ning chooses to rest for the night first, No matter how well you deal with it, try to send him back to the capital as soon as possible.
"I came here alone, Ji Rong and the others should still be chasing after him..." Zhu Houzhao said without any regrets, he didn't care how many liters of blood the commander of Jin Yiwei would vomit, and he naturally wanted to rub King Ning's tent.
If the nephew of the family came to visit the mansion, King Ning would not refuse to be the host, but this nephew is still the emperor, and King Ning is responsible for the community, not to mention that the nephew is very likely to eavesdrop on his corner and plot to cause chaos This crime, just by saying it, can scare most of the vassal kings to death. Although the court has no evidence, since ancient times, no matter what dynasty the king of this crime would rather kill by mistake than let it go, King Ning looked at the sincere eyes The emperor felt that it was necessary to show his loyalty, "Your Majesty does not mind it, please come to my humble minister's military tent."
The two riders returned to the camp on a snowy night, and King Ning helped Zhu Houzhao conceal his identity, and went all the way to the coach's dormitory. "It's bitterly cold in the frontier, please ask your majesty to be kind." King Ning and he entered the tent, and quickly ordered the military academy to heat up the charcoal fire, bring wine and food, and prepare clean water.
Zhu Houzhao, who was on the verge of freezing, was finally enveloped in warmth. He felt that his hands were slowly regaining consciousness, and he could smell the aroma of barbecue in the tent through his nostrils.King Ning did not return to Beijing for several months. He thought that there was something nostalgic about the border. Only after seeing him today did he know that King Ning brought a mere 2000 people here to eat and sleep in the open. When I arrived, I poured everything here, and only found half a fox fur, which was barely enough to sleep at night to keep out the cold. All the soldiers worked and rested in shifts, and they didn't understand their armor. I can't rest in peace
The tent is simple and shabby, not worthy of the dignity of a prince, let alone the emperor, but according to Zhu Houzhao, it is the warmest and peaceful place in the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains. Under the orange flickering bonfire, the emperor's uncle's face is like jade, sometimes The light sometimes dims, just like King Ning has been laughing, staring and angry for a long time, with ambiguous and confused attitudes, Zhu Houzhao is emotional in his heart, his face is still happy, he pours himself a glass of wine, and fills a glass for King Ning, The frontier is really tough, and the wine like burning knives enters the throat, and immediately feels extremely spicy, but for the border soldiers, it is already a good enjoyment. He swallowed this cup and said slowly, "The official system in the court has changed, The cabinet has been replaced, the fiefdoms of the four kings have been settled, this autumn has a bumper harvest, and the flood control of the Yellow River has achieved results. I have been busy for a long time. Thinking of you, Zhu Houzhao seemed to be chatting with his trusted elders, even with an easy-going tone on major state affairs, "I finally got some free time, and I wanted to come to the border. Back then, the Communist Party swept across the country, and Chengzu Yuyu was all over the world. All the old things only Only in the frontier can we stretch our minds. However, the officials refused to allow it, and came up with thousands of reasons to stop it. Someday I am not dealing with state affairs. What is the difference between handling state affairs in Beijing and going abroad? I have been arguing with them for a month, and it is really annoying. "Zhu Houzhao was full of grievances and complaints, and King Ning listened quietly. He had his own way of inquiring about major affairs in the court, but the emperor himself narrated the serious state affairs as if they came to life." , This made them clean." Zhu Houzhao was a little smug, and looked at King Ning with his chin resting. The emperor had lost weight, took off his cloak, and wrapped a gauze on his right arm. It must have been injured when he charged the ground, but his wrist I can no longer find traces of that day on the Internet.
King Ning avoided the other party's blazing gaze, looked down at the wine glass, but didn't drink a drop, "Your Majesty..."
"I am very happy to see Uncle Huang. Uncle Huang wants to take me for a ride on this border." Afraid that King Ning would say cold and repulsive words again, Zhu Houzhao said first.
No matter how intimately expressed, this is also an imperial decree. King Ning swallowed a yawn, "Yes, I obey the decree." The emperor really came here alone, he is more willing to believe that the emperor came prepared, he suddenly appeared and took advantage of his unpreparedness to find out the military affairs here, if he really caught a glimpse of Yixin, let alone Jin Yiwei, tens of thousands of Ming elites would definitely kill him instantly I realized that I had no choice but to wait for death, but the young emperor in front of me had been traveling all the way, his face was full of fatigue, and the emperor was living in a dilapidated and difficult military camp, talking about what he had experienced in the past few months, even the wary King Ning could not help but infect him. The sincerity is not the absurd forbidden love before, but as Zhu Houzhao said, a little tenderness between relatives that he himself seeks. "The emperor is rich in gold, and the border land is infested with alien races. I will definitely try my best to protect the emperor's safety." King Ning added that there are at most 2000 people here. How many troops have been deployed in the dark? King Ning still decided to be aware of current affairs.
The snow was falling outside the tent, and the fire inside the tent was warm. Zhu Houzhao finally dissipated the coldness all over his body. He laughed at himself, "I will be condemned by the ministers when I come out this time, but I just want to have a look and listen. Uncle Huang can tell me about these frontier experiences, instead of singing their praises in their memorials."
In the past, King Ning traveled far to the south of the Yangtze River for Zhu Houzhao, who was still the prince. Now he is the emperor, and he also traveled thousands of miles for King Ning. Is there really a little royal warmth in the struggle for power?King Ning will never forget the remnants of Daning City after being burned by Chengzu's fire in the past, but it is difficult to distinguish Zhu Houzhao's affectionate truth and strategy.
King Ning wanted to toast, but he still chose not to drink at all. He said indifferently, "Your Majesty, it's late at night, let's rest."
Zhu Houzhao looked at the bed, he was really tired after driving for many days, so he took off his armor, obeyed King Ning's words, and slept with his clothes on.
King Ning extinguished the fire, and left a small lamp on the table beside him, "Uncle Huang, don't you rest?" The bed is quite spacious, and two people can lie on it. Zhu Houzhao harbored a little longing.
"Your Majesty, please sleep. I will guard for you. The military in the frontier area changes at any time. I am used to being alert at night." King Ning sat in front of the desk, opened a volume of books, and kept the lights extremely dim to take care of Zhu Houzhao's sleep. , I couldn't read the handwriting at all, and King Ning looked at the faint aura of light in his eyes.
"The emperor's uncle is already a prince, why is he so...dedicated to shame?" Zhu Houzhao was lying on his back. Although the bed was not comfortable, it was completely different from Qianqing Palace, but this was the bed of the emperor's uncle. Secretly sucking up all the scents belonging to King Ning around him, he continued to whisper, "King Ning Xian... I feel sorry..."
King Ning looked up at the person on the couch in surprise, Zhu Houzhao closed his eyes, nothing else, Xuanzu Ning Xian Wang Zhu Quan, a talented man, galloped on the frontier, helped Jing Nan, but retreated to Jiangxi, obviously has amazing talent but Far away from the imperial court, Zhu Chenhao knew all about Xuanzu's deeds. The descendants of King Ning's mansion of all generations were extremely educated and talented, all thanks to Xuanzu. King Ning recalled the mansion in the Jiangxi domain, where all the familiar Unforgettable.
"The sons and descendants of the past dynasties all practice books and martial arts. They are all taught by Xuanzu for generations to never forget the hardships and difficulties of founding a country. If the country is in trouble, they must sacrifice their lives to serve it..." King Ning lived a hundred years ago. Where Prince Ning's Mansion is located, his heart is filled with emotion. The descendants of the two princes of Yan and Ning are in the same room again after a hundred years.On a cold and snowy night, Zhu Houzhao was not stingy with affection in his heart, and King Ning was not a heartless person.
Zhu Houzhao was breathing steadily, and he was probably asleep. King Ning said in a low voice, "Every descendant is taught every morning, and we must not slack off in writing and poetry. In addition, we also go to the outskirts of Nanchang to practice riding and archery. In the mountains, trekking through mountains and rivers in a few days is like marching, and you will develop perseverance." Zhu Houzhao was exhausted, and he heard only a few words in his drowsiness. No wonder, he was assassinated before he ascended the throne, and the emperor's uncle could light a fire in the wild to satisfy his hunger. , is really a pillar of shaping... He finally couldn't stand it anymore and fell asleep...
In the middle of the night, everything was silent, except for the footsteps of patrolling the camp, there was the sound of falling snow. There was no iron horse and glacier falling asleep, only deep sleep. Unexpectedly, Zhu Houzhao turned over and almost rolled off the bed. There was a faint glow on the bed, and King Ning had fallen asleep at his desk.Zhu Houzhao came to him softly. King Ning rested his face on his upper arm. His nose bridge was straight, his eyelashes were thick, and his cheeks were clear. Foreigners are good at sneak attacks. battle situation.If the emperor's uncle really had a different intention, how could he stay here in this bitter, cold and barren place, camping for several months without any reward, but he is already extremely rich, and he is still making friends with powerful officials and gathering people's hearts outside, no emperor will just sit idly by Reason, Zhu Houzhao has repeatedly entrusted his kindness with family affection and tenderness, and hoped that King Ning would no longer be "a master with great achievements", but once King Ning left in a cloud and a wild crane, would he still be the talented and gorgeous person who made him intoxicated?Zhu Houzhao was extremely contradictory, and he couldn't help leaning down to help him put on the cloak. His beautiful face without a trace of defense was within easy reach, and he kissed his forehead lightly.
King Ning has keen senses. Before he could get up after hearing the subtle breathing around him, he felt the soft kiss. Rejecting this consolation is like a traveler in a world of ice and snow who will not extinguish the fire for warmth, and then relaxes his vigilance and falls into a deep sleep.
Zhu Houzhao looked at the peaceful sleeping face contentedly. For just a moment, he hoped that all the shackles and shackles would disappear. As long as he stayed in this world and locked up this simple time quietly, life was enough.
At dusk on the second day, dozens of people led by Ji Rong finally arrived at the military camp of King Ning. At that time, King Ning was bidding farewell to Hasa outside the gate. Go home and realize your ambition.As soon as the front team left, the rear team arrived. As the name suggests, Jin Yiwei's clothes were gorgeous, and the status of the royal family was the highest. But now the wind and dust came, and Ji Rong's men with sad faces also took off their flying fish suits in order to match the emperor's micro clothes. The armor of the military academy is resentful like a defeated army coming to ask for help. Ji Rong originally thought hard about how to pass on His Royal Highness Qiantui so that his soldiers and horses could let him into the camp. In the meantime, he was tall and straight, and with the sight of the well-organized military camp behind him, he looked even more heroic. Ji Rong also agreed very much. The number one beauty in Ming Dynasty in everyone's gossip messages deserved his name. Not only did he see the reinforcements, he was as good as Seeing the god, "Your Majesty!" Ji Rong and the others jumped off their horses and bowed to the end, "Who is here, who broke into the important place of the military camp?!" Shan Zhou was startled by the surrender, but still performed his duty.
Ji Rong cast a glance at Shan Zhou, frowned and smiled wryly and looked at King Ning flatteringly, the meaning is self-evident, lord, the emperor is here with you, it is best for you to let us in to drink and rest, if you don't let us in, the emperor will hand over Here you go.
King Ning stood still, and looked back at the tent of the Chinese army. The emperor woke up in the morning, and has been catching up on sleep in the afternoon.Ji Rong caught King Ning's eyes, and then he felt emotionally, Your Majesty, you have already slept on King Ning's bed, so let us go if you are satisfied.
King Ning looked at the team again meaningfully, and stopped embarrassing them with marching documents and badges, and ordered to Shan Zhou to let them pass.
Thanks to Ji Rong and the others, they finally entered the camp and got a military tent for rest. I don’t know how King Ning confessed their identities, but on Monday, they changed their vigilance at the gate and came to the tent very sincerely, offering There were plenty of drinks and food for food and drink, and a group of people who were about to cough up blood finally found a way to avoid dying in the line of duty.
Now that the emperor has relied on King Ning, Ji Rong can finally close his eyes and take a nap. After a short rest, the sky was dark, the drums in the camp were rumbling, and the military music was loud. He immediately paid the bill and saw a raging fire in front of the tent of the Chinese army. Around the bonfire, all the soldiers were beating drums and singing around the flames, drinking strong wine and eating barbecue.
Zhu Houzhao had already changed into the same general costume as the head coach, and he and Ning Wang lived in the center of the main seat, toasting and drinking with everyone.There is no complicated etiquette in the palace, and there is no rich and noble place with carved beams and painted buildings. On the desolate land on the border, the flames, the smell of wine, horses, and military camps arouse the blood and pride in the man's heart. He blends into ordinary soldiers and enjoys the pure love with them. The military banquet is joyous.
"Come, come, I'll toast General Zhu!" Shan Zhou led several generals to toast, "General Zhu is young and promising, he is already a mighty general of the court at such a young age!" King Ning was listening to this According to his self-proclaimed military position, Zhu Hou had to drink with his head down. His wine was mixed by himself, and it was very dull.Zhu Houzhao was in high spirits, and the army he yearned for finally came true. He was happy to mingle with the sergeants, especially King Ning's subordinates, "General Zhu, I don't know what rank this mighty general is?" Several people gathered around and drank a few bowls It became "brothers".
"The emperor said it was first-class!" Zhu Houzhao waved his hand!Another night was filled for him.
"Oh! I've seen the great general!" Everyone quickly saluted and laughed together.
"Isn't the first-rank military general in the court the commander-in-chief of the world's soldiers and horses?" Someone in the crowd asked, General Zhu drank too much, his hearing was not sensitive, and King Ning almost choked in his throat with a sip of wine.
"Hey, General Zhu, have you seen the Generalissimo of the Army and Horses in the capital?" They were all drunk, and the highest rank of a military general was naturally what the soldiers were most willing to mention.
General Zhu couldn't count how many bowls he had eaten, and when he heard this question, he replied even more boldly, "Of course I have!"
"Who?"
Shan Zhou is King Ning's confidant, so he naturally knows what the prince thinks. He looked at the calm Prince Ning, and then at Zhu Houzhao. He guessed that his identity must be precious, otherwise the prince would not personally find someone to introduce into the Chinese army He would not hold a rare military concert, he instinctively felt that these conversations had become very "dangerous", the military power in the world is the prince's aspiration, if he remembers correctly, there was someone who was chosen in the last emperor's edict.Of course King Ning knew about it, and of course he had seen it. He hadn't seen him for many months. He didn't know what kind of tricks he was playing in the court. If it wasn't for him, the military power in the world would have already belonged to him.His loyalty to Zhu Houzhao is enough to make himself have to admire, even though King Ning doesn't think he is good enough to be an opponent now.
Zhu Houzhao was drunk, he looked at the figure of King Ning, and saw Ji Rong in the crowd. The cold wind blew by, and he suddenly felt refreshed. King Ning had come to Ji Rong, "Master Ji!" Ji Rong shivered immediately "My lord, I don't dare to be a petty one, just tell me if you have anything to do!" Obviously the emperor is the rightful master of Jinyiwei, but Ji Rong feels that King Ning is more oppressive, and King Ning is not like the emperor, wearing a full set of armor. Only the brocade clothes are worn on the chest, shoulders, and wrists with exquisite battle armor, and the chest and waist are embellished with exquisite jade pendants. The purpose of the banquet is to relax the vigilance of the enemy and lure the enemy to attack, and our army can wipe out its remnants in one go." Ji Rong realized that King Ning was confiding military secrets to him, "So at that time, the safety of the emperor..."
"The little one will protect the emperor's safety." Ji Rong quickly replied, sincerely admiring that King Dao Ning is worthy of being King Ning. Looking at the sleeping emperor, you don't have to exhaust yourself to follow, this move is really powerful.King Ning nodded, believing that Ji Rong would protect Zhu Houzhao well and would not become a burden for him to kill the enemy with all his strength.
King Ning made a good estimate. The remnants of Wuliangha who escaped from here have been provocative recently, so King Ning took the opportunity to hold a big banquet in the army, making the enemy mistakenly think that he was lax in defense, and lured them to come to sneak attack, so as to wait for work and wipe out them in one fell swoop. Remnants of the enemy, the frontier has been stable for many years, which is why his troops have not withdrawn for many days.The two had their own concerns, and walked towards Zhu Houzhao in the middle of the bonfire one after the other, only to see the "general" and the soldiers chatting happily, bragging about their years of experience, "I eliminated the rebellion of the four kings, went to the south of the Yangtze River, and came again." When you get to this border, you are the most heroic Ming soldiers I have ever seen." Shan Zhou didn't dare to drink, and told himself intuitively that this general could not be offended, and he retorted silently, we are the guards of King Ning's residence, and if you don't return to the Ministry of War, you Don't try to draw us into the border guards.
"General Zhu, I've been to so many places in Ming Dynasty, where is the girl the most beautiful? Hahaha." In the crowd, you talked to each other, and started the most popular topic among the people.
"I only look at the sergeants, not the girls. Besides, the places I have been to are limited. After this march is over, I will go to other places to see more." The students of Guanzizai Academy mingle together.
"Where are you going then?"
"I'm going to Haozhou!" Zhu Houzhao asked after another night of drinking, he was used to the harshness of wine.
"Hao...?!" One of the selected accompanying soldiers blurted out. Shan Zhou covered his mouth with a slap and gave him a warning with a vicious look. Zhu Houzhao didn't realize it. He had longed for this place for a long time, "Haozhou is I am the land of Longxing, Haozhou is the beginning of my foundation in the Ming Dynasty, Haozhou has been a treasure since ancient times, and Haozhou is where my capital is located, Hao..." Zhu Houzhao gave several reasons in succession, and every sentence was rejected The nearby King Ning heard it, and Ji Rong tilted his head and cast a respectful but perceptive look at King Ning. King Ning came forward calmly, "My lord! My lord! Let's have a drink together, my lord!" King Ning thought in his heart. Quite resentful, these warriors usually drink like water, why haven't they drunk the emperor today, he was about to pick up the sea bowl himself, but when he heard the urgent sound of war drums, it was as shocking as thunder, King Ning raised his eyebrows and his eyes were sharp Looking at the gate, everyone came to their senses and dispersed to stand firm. Zhu Houzhao didn't respond for a while, and looked blankly at the people who had just talked and laughed and feasted. Hand, go out to defend against the enemy.
It happened just in time, King Ning slightly raised his head and pursed his lips with a smile, looking at the sky illuminated by countless torches in the distance, amidst the rumbling roar and the sound of thousands of horseshoes, he was complacent in the middle of the battlefield, Wu Liangha Remnant was indeed attracted, he nodded with a smile, his mind was on the battlefield, and he didn't notice that Zhu Hou was looking after him at all.
"The enemy is coming, the battlefield is dangerous, Mr. Ji, please take General Zhu...to the rear army to rest!" Shan Zhou and other relatives are still beside King Ning, and the scheduled battle is coming, all of them are eager to try.
"Yes!" Ji Rong saluted on one knee, and answered very faithfully. It would be safer for the emperor to avoid danger. He very much agreed with King Ning.
"No, I want to go with the emperor!" Zhu Houzhao changed his drunken attitude and said firmly. He was wearing armor, and he had the aura of a general in an instant.
The Zhu family has a large number of relatives, and I guessed that General Zhu is a high-ranking official at a young age and has an extraordinary status. It turns out that the backup of the prince is higher than General Zhu!Shan Zhou and the others nodded silently.
The words of King Ning were on his lips, and he was about to refute, but Zhu Houzhao took the lead, "The last time when King Zheng sent troops, the emperor went to the battlefield alone. This time I will definitely not miss it again." His eyes were firm, and no matter what King Ning did Even if he refuses, it will not change. Shan Zhou recalled the battle when he personally greeted King Ning on the outskirts of the capital.King Ning looked at the Yuanmen, the elite soldiers ambushing outside would attack the enemy, and waited for his military order to attack with all his strength, the military situation was changing rapidly, he had no time to persuade Zhu Hou according to his kind words, turned his head to look at Ji Rong, and signaled him to directly attack the emperor Carry it away, and then King Ning will stand up to carry it.Shan Zhou and the others were still amazed that someone could make the prince jealous. General Zhu is a god.
Ji Rong stretched his neck, which means that his life is in danger, and the prince himself will do it.Regardless of the two of them, Zhu Houzhao directly stepped on a steed beside him. He held the reins tightly on the horse and practiced riding and archery for many days. After chasing, he rode his horse and galloped away.
King Ning and Ji Rong were shocked, "Your Majesty!!" Shan Zhou tried to kneel but there was no one there
Wu Liangha in Daning City came out to attack the Ming army without success, and was directly wiped out by King Ning's troops, and the Wala people who were mixed in the city were also captured alive, and they are being escorted into the tent of the Chinese army at the moment.
Daning City finally returned to Daming after many years. King Ning directly ordered someone to write a memorial and report it to the capital, and the Six Departments of the Cabinet immediately replied that they would take over.King Ning sneered, he hadn't seen the border reinforcements for a long time, and he replied slowly only after winning the battle, and just threw the document away and ignored it.
After the captured Oirat was held for many days, King Ning took all the time to "visit". He invited the man to the tent of the Chinese army, and served a banquet to show his sincerity.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Prince Hasa." King Ning put on a full smile, and personally bowed his hands as a greeting ceremony for a Han Chinese.
"Hmph!" Although Hasa was removed from the shackles and knew that there was no escape, he still felt resentful. He gave King Ning a blank stare, "I'm not afraid of killing or cutting!"
King Ning still smiled, "Prince Hasa has a high status in Wala, and this time he is negotiating peace with Wuliangha. How can such an important person be killed casually?" The mighty prince of the wilderness.
Hasa always felt that King Ning's words sounded like irony to himself. He was uneasy, but he couldn't find the fault. "That's good, let me go back. I'll ask my father to send beautiful women and treasures to thank you." Hasa shook He lifted his head and put on a very rascal expression.
King Ning's expression remained unchanged, but the smile in his eyes gradually turned into contempt, "Oh, how much treasure is the prince worth?"
Outside the tent, some generals from the capital came to discuss military matters with King Ning. Hearing the voice from inside the tent, he stopped and waited outside.
Hasa took a few sips of wine unceremoniously, "I'm not afraid that you will ask for a price, but I am afraid that you will not be able to move it. We in Wala have a lot of treasures, and there are many more beauties than you in the Central Plains."
"Prince Hasa, I can't estimate how much treasure you are worth, but if it falls into the hands of your eldest prince, how much does he think you are worth?" King Ning looked at Hasa with great interest.
"What do you mean?"
"Oh, this king is writing a letter to ask your eldest prince Tuoqi for a price." King Ning raised his glass and invited Hasa to drink and chat.
Oirat Khan has two sons, the eldest prince has both military merit and esteem, and is the best candidate to succeed the Great Khan, but these six princes are also ambitious and covet Khan's throne. King Ning has already seen Hasa's intentions, The sixth prince colluded with Wuliangha and instigated him to attack the border of Ming Dynasty, so as to win Wuliangha's help and recruit soldiers for himself to ascend to the Khan position.At this moment, Wuliangha was defeated and Da Ming recaptured the territory. His plan failed, and he was very angry. He was very hostile to King Ning, but King Ning said a few words to discourage him. I scolded King Ning all over my heart.
Hasa's expression was not good, and it seemed that he was poked at the center of the matter by himself. King Ning rolled his eyes and came up with an idea to deal with Wala.
"Prince Waratozzi is very famous, and all the Wala people praise him for his loyalty. It's rare that Prince Hasa doesn't think so?" King Ning pretended to ask.
"Hmph!" Hasa rolled his eyes again.
"Prince Hasa doesn't need to be so caring. This king has a way to make your wishes come true."
"What way?" Hasa learned of King Ning's tricks, lost the city and became a prisoner, and was very wary of him, rolled his eyes and asked.
"Hehe, Prince Hasa stayed here for several months to help Wuliangha, in fact, he was accumulating his own strength, in order to seek the throne of Oara Khan, right?" King Ning said straight away.
Hasa was not guilty of being exposed, and still proudly said, "So what? Oh? I know, they are all spreading the news, King Ning, you also want to seize the military power of your emperor, and then rebel, right? You are here this time. Daning just wanted to regain the fiefdom of your ancestors, so that he could stand against your capital, and then look for opportunities to break through the capital and become emperor himself? So, you think of me that way, right?"
Outside the tent, the faces of the generals from the court changed drastically, their bodies trembling slightly as if they knew about the earth-shattering conspiracy, and they immediately wanted to lift the curtain to break in, confront King Ning face to face, and see if he was a traitor or not.
After hearing this, King Ning couldn't help laughing, and the laughter interrupted the imagination of the people outside the tent, "The sun and the moon are shining brightly, shining forever. My Ming Dynasty has thousands of miles of territory and millions of soldiers. I have never been afraid of you Mongolia. It's just that since ancient times, when wars broke out, the people suffered. , corpses are strewn all over the field, this king cherishes the power of the people, and does not want the two clans to have more wars, so, Prince Hasa, this king helps you ascend the throne of Khan, and in the future you and my two clans will be allies." King Ning With a loud voice and the undeniable majesty of a superior, even Hasa couldn't help but be impressed by this magnanimity.
Hasa doesn't trust King Ning very much, but King Ning's conditions are too tempting. Anyway, he has been captured by Daming, and his life or death is not in his hands. , Hasa understood the meaning from King Ning's eyes, he reached out to take the wine glass handed over by King Ning, drank it down, and expressed his acquiescence, "This is what the heroes see and agree with." King Ning looked satisfied. Hasa nodded.
"You don't have to tell me that those Han people can understand the language, I just ask you, how to do it?" Hasa turned sideways, changed a comfortable posture, and asked with squinting eyes.
It was night now, the bonfire in the tent was bright, and King Ning's eyes were shining brightly. Even a formidable enemy could feel his magnanimity, and couldn't help following the guidance in his words.
The people outside the tent were very close, their faces had already been covered with the tent, but they could no longer hear King Ning's voice clearly, only Xu Xu's few words, could not tell what the two of them were talking about, and only repeated the same sentence in their ears ——The sun and the moon shine brightly, shining forever.
At the end, I heard Hasa laughing wantonly, "When things come to fruition, what King Ning promised will be fulfilled!"
King Ning stared at Hasa without responding. After a while, he said slowly, "Then they are spreading what you just said. Who are they referring to?" King Ning was still talking and laughing just now. It was as if a different person had changed at the time, with ruthless eyes and sinister eyes. Hasa was frightened and couldn't react for a while, "Ah? What, what?"
"Just now the sixth prince said that they are all saying that this king intends to seize power and usurp the throne?" King Ning raised his eyes and pressed on step by step.
"Oh, oh," Hasa stuttered, and just blurted out casually just now. King Ning has made great contributions to Daming. If you don't mention it in good faith, you must kill the person who spread the rumors, "Isn't this your wish, my lord? If you want to seize the throne, I am willing to help you. After that, our two clans will be an iron-clad alliance." gone."
King Ning threw the wine glass heavily to the ground, and with a loud bang, the fragments splashed everywhere. The soldiers outside the tent heard the noise, and hurriedly held the weapons in their hands, and entered through the curtain, and gathered in the tent. Soldiers, the edge of the weapon flashed cold light, Hasa stared blankly, not daring to move.
"Is your lord all right?" Shan Zhou, the leader, asked worriedly.
"Prince Hasa, this king is the descendant of the emperor Zhu, who swears to defend the Daming country to the death. If such rebellious words are heard in your ears again, you just hand over the person who sent the message to this king, and this king will definitely be the king." First and foremost!" King Ning drew out the sword on the handsome table, the blade was out of the sheath, and the light reflected from the blade was projected on King Ning's cheek, making people feel terrified, King Ning put the sword back into the scabbard after he finished speaking.
There was a moment of silence in the tent, no one dared to answer.King Ning glanced at the crowd, then turned to Hasa who was standing still, and said in a slow tone, "The prince is now my king's distinguished guest. Today, the army has prepared good wine and danced with swords to add to the fun. Come, please sit by the bonfire outside the tent. Let’s talk again.” Hasa regained his composure, smiled and said yes again and again, and escaped from the Chinese army tent, and went to the outskirts to have a feast and have fun.
After all the soldiers retreated, Shan Zhou whispered to King Ning's ear, "My lord, the imperial court sent troops to support. The man who commanded the troops was here just now, but now he has disappeared..." King Ning was taken aback, and then understood Knowing the key point, he asked with concern, "Where is this person now? What is his name and what position does he hold?"
"I don't know, he has a golden and jade token, and he can't be blocked from entering or leaving the important places of the palace barracks." Shan Zhou answered very smoothly, didn't the prince capture the Wala people, just to let the people come to see the credit of the prince.
King Ning understands that there are only three people in the whole world who can get this gold and jade token, so this time, is it the emperor who sent him to show his kindness or power?No matter what, you have to find this person first.
"Fortify a hundred miles around, and don't miss a single person. This king will go to meet the distinguished guests of the court in person!"
On the open space outside the tent, uninhibited military music is wildly played, and everyone gathers around the bonfire to drink and barbecue, celebrating the victory. At this moment, there is no high or low, only the feeling of adversity, and the feelings of the people in the army are open and enthusiastic. It is a celebration of victory. Let them completely throw away the red tape between the world, only pure laughter and unbridled celebration.Laughter, singing, and applause were intertwined, and it was very lively. King Ning patrolled the camp alone. He searched the camp but did not see any visiting generals. Countless soldiers around him brushed past him full of joy, but no one came. He was always feeling uneasy.
The distant sound of the horn was heard in the distance, which was a signal for the reinforcements to join. This was the usual practice of the Ming army. When the defenders of Daning City heard the sound of the horn, they also blew the same sound at the top of the city to join forces with the friendly forces.
King Ning instantly thought of a place, and he rode his horse and galloped towards the city of Daning. At this moment, snowflakes were floating in the sky, and a bonfire was lit in the dark night, and white snow was flying everywhere.King Ning stepped on the city wall to a high place, and finally saw a figure overlooking the vast and vast land. Although King Ning had already obtained the important place here, he never entered the city. In Jiangxi, keep a low profile and keep a low profile all day long. The previous generation of King Ning has long been recorded in the history books, and there will be no more official history of King Yan's succession in the Ninth Five-Year Plan. If the accumulation over the years is to show off his ambition He Hongtu, then this time the troops are dispatched only to prove that he is a descendant of the Zhu surname, the country of the Ming Dynasty, the old land of the past, will never allow foreigners to get involved, even if they risk their lives.
King Ning finally saw the back of the visitor clearly, and all the greetings and greetings he had planned to meet with the important officials in the court were all abolished, his expression gradually became gloomy, and he could not move forward or retreat.
The general who came to take over here was none other than the emperor, and the emperor came to the border in person.
Zhu Houzhao heard the footsteps and didn't know who was coming, so he looked back instinctively. In the dark night, amidst the snow and snow, King Ning was standing in front of him, silent. He was dressed in light armor, with a sword around his waist and a Xiu cloak, Zhu Houzhao did not expect that the person who came was Ning Wang, his heart was overwhelmed, but there was only a smile on his face slowly, he was wearing the emperor's armor, but there was no dragon pattern decoration, he walked in a hurry, and he did not have thick clothes to keep out the cold in the cold night , he rubbed his frozen hands together, his voice was a little nasal, like ordinary friends meeting each other, and he said in a normal tone, "I don't have any relatives around me, so I miss the emperor very much..." The white The breath dissipated, and King Ning could see Zhu Houzhao's reddened nose and hands.
I haven't seen each other for a few months, which dilutes the anger in my heart. The reunion of people from afar evokes a little warmth inherent in people's hearts, and even a little affection. King Ning coughed lightly, and performed a courtier's gift, "slightly The minister kowtowed to the emperor."Zhu Houzhao had already come to him, "Uncle Huang, you don't need to be too polite. I came out in a low-level suit, so it's inconvenient to reveal my identity."
King Ning was puzzled for a moment, but didn't say much, "The terrain here is excellent. It is an important frontier fortress of my Ming Dynasty. The emperor returned this place to my Ming Dynasty. I really don't know how to thank the emperor." Looking around, Zhu Houzhao had already I have memorized the maps by heart, and having been here today, I naturally understand the border matters better.
"Please don't thank me." King Ning's voice was as cold as if soaked in snowflakes.
Zhu Houzhao didn't mind either, and smiled to himself, "There is nothing in the world that can defeat the emperor's uncle."
"Your Majesty, the border is bitterly cold, the Eucharist is important, let's go back to the station first, Ji Rong should be nearby, I will invite him to serve the Emperor back to the imperial tent." Now that the Emperor has come, King Ning chooses to rest for the night first, No matter how well you deal with it, try to send him back to the capital as soon as possible.
"I came here alone, Ji Rong and the others should still be chasing after him..." Zhu Houzhao said without any regrets, he didn't care how many liters of blood the commander of Jin Yiwei would vomit, and he naturally wanted to rub King Ning's tent.
If the nephew of the family came to visit the mansion, King Ning would not refuse to be the host, but this nephew is still the emperor, and King Ning is responsible for the community, not to mention that the nephew is very likely to eavesdrop on his corner and plot to cause chaos This crime, just by saying it, can scare most of the vassal kings to death. Although the court has no evidence, since ancient times, no matter what dynasty the king of this crime would rather kill by mistake than let it go, King Ning looked at the sincere eyes The emperor felt that it was necessary to show his loyalty, "Your Majesty does not mind it, please come to my humble minister's military tent."
The two riders returned to the camp on a snowy night, and King Ning helped Zhu Houzhao conceal his identity, and went all the way to the coach's dormitory. "It's bitterly cold in the frontier, please ask your majesty to be kind." King Ning and he entered the tent, and quickly ordered the military academy to heat up the charcoal fire, bring wine and food, and prepare clean water.
Zhu Houzhao, who was on the verge of freezing, was finally enveloped in warmth. He felt that his hands were slowly regaining consciousness, and he could smell the aroma of barbecue in the tent through his nostrils.King Ning did not return to Beijing for several months. He thought that there was something nostalgic about the border. Only after seeing him today did he know that King Ning brought a mere 2000 people here to eat and sleep in the open. When I arrived, I poured everything here, and only found half a fox fur, which was barely enough to sleep at night to keep out the cold. All the soldiers worked and rested in shifts, and they didn't understand their armor. I can't rest in peace
The tent is simple and shabby, not worthy of the dignity of a prince, let alone the emperor, but according to Zhu Houzhao, it is the warmest and peaceful place in the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains. Under the orange flickering bonfire, the emperor's uncle's face is like jade, sometimes The light sometimes dims, just like King Ning has been laughing, staring and angry for a long time, with ambiguous and confused attitudes, Zhu Houzhao is emotional in his heart, his face is still happy, he pours himself a glass of wine, and fills a glass for King Ning, The frontier is really tough, and the wine like burning knives enters the throat, and immediately feels extremely spicy, but for the border soldiers, it is already a good enjoyment. He swallowed this cup and said slowly, "The official system in the court has changed, The cabinet has been replaced, the fiefdoms of the four kings have been settled, this autumn has a bumper harvest, and the flood control of the Yellow River has achieved results. I have been busy for a long time. Thinking of you, Zhu Houzhao seemed to be chatting with his trusted elders, even with an easy-going tone on major state affairs, "I finally got some free time, and I wanted to come to the border. Back then, the Communist Party swept across the country, and Chengzu Yuyu was all over the world. All the old things only Only in the frontier can we stretch our minds. However, the officials refused to allow it, and came up with thousands of reasons to stop it. Someday I am not dealing with state affairs. What is the difference between handling state affairs in Beijing and going abroad? I have been arguing with them for a month, and it is really annoying. "Zhu Houzhao was full of grievances and complaints, and King Ning listened quietly. He had his own way of inquiring about major affairs in the court, but the emperor himself narrated the serious state affairs as if they came to life." , This made them clean." Zhu Houzhao was a little smug, and looked at King Ning with his chin resting. The emperor had lost weight, took off his cloak, and wrapped a gauze on his right arm. It must have been injured when he charged the ground, but his wrist I can no longer find traces of that day on the Internet.
King Ning avoided the other party's blazing gaze, looked down at the wine glass, but didn't drink a drop, "Your Majesty..."
"I am very happy to see Uncle Huang. Uncle Huang wants to take me for a ride on this border." Afraid that King Ning would say cold and repulsive words again, Zhu Houzhao said first.
No matter how intimately expressed, this is also an imperial decree. King Ning swallowed a yawn, "Yes, I obey the decree." The emperor really came here alone, he is more willing to believe that the emperor came prepared, he suddenly appeared and took advantage of his unpreparedness to find out the military affairs here, if he really caught a glimpse of Yixin, let alone Jin Yiwei, tens of thousands of Ming elites would definitely kill him instantly I realized that I had no choice but to wait for death, but the young emperor in front of me had been traveling all the way, his face was full of fatigue, and the emperor was living in a dilapidated and difficult military camp, talking about what he had experienced in the past few months, even the wary King Ning could not help but infect him. The sincerity is not the absurd forbidden love before, but as Zhu Houzhao said, a little tenderness between relatives that he himself seeks. "The emperor is rich in gold, and the border land is infested with alien races. I will definitely try my best to protect the emperor's safety." King Ning added that there are at most 2000 people here. How many troops have been deployed in the dark? King Ning still decided to be aware of current affairs.
The snow was falling outside the tent, and the fire inside the tent was warm. Zhu Houzhao finally dissipated the coldness all over his body. He laughed at himself, "I will be condemned by the ministers when I come out this time, but I just want to have a look and listen. Uncle Huang can tell me about these frontier experiences, instead of singing their praises in their memorials."
In the past, King Ning traveled far to the south of the Yangtze River for Zhu Houzhao, who was still the prince. Now he is the emperor, and he also traveled thousands of miles for King Ning. Is there really a little royal warmth in the struggle for power?King Ning will never forget the remnants of Daning City after being burned by Chengzu's fire in the past, but it is difficult to distinguish Zhu Houzhao's affectionate truth and strategy.
King Ning wanted to toast, but he still chose not to drink at all. He said indifferently, "Your Majesty, it's late at night, let's rest."
Zhu Houzhao looked at the bed, he was really tired after driving for many days, so he took off his armor, obeyed King Ning's words, and slept with his clothes on.
King Ning extinguished the fire, and left a small lamp on the table beside him, "Uncle Huang, don't you rest?" The bed is quite spacious, and two people can lie on it. Zhu Houzhao harbored a little longing.
"Your Majesty, please sleep. I will guard for you. The military in the frontier area changes at any time. I am used to being alert at night." King Ning sat in front of the desk, opened a volume of books, and kept the lights extremely dim to take care of Zhu Houzhao's sleep. , I couldn't read the handwriting at all, and King Ning looked at the faint aura of light in his eyes.
"The emperor's uncle is already a prince, why is he so...dedicated to shame?" Zhu Houzhao was lying on his back. Although the bed was not comfortable, it was completely different from Qianqing Palace, but this was the bed of the emperor's uncle. Secretly sucking up all the scents belonging to King Ning around him, he continued to whisper, "King Ning Xian... I feel sorry..."
King Ning looked up at the person on the couch in surprise, Zhu Houzhao closed his eyes, nothing else, Xuanzu Ning Xian Wang Zhu Quan, a talented man, galloped on the frontier, helped Jing Nan, but retreated to Jiangxi, obviously has amazing talent but Far away from the imperial court, Zhu Chenhao knew all about Xuanzu's deeds. The descendants of King Ning's mansion of all generations were extremely educated and talented, all thanks to Xuanzu. King Ning recalled the mansion in the Jiangxi domain, where all the familiar Unforgettable.
"The sons and descendants of the past dynasties all practice books and martial arts. They are all taught by Xuanzu for generations to never forget the hardships and difficulties of founding a country. If the country is in trouble, they must sacrifice their lives to serve it..." King Ning lived a hundred years ago. Where Prince Ning's Mansion is located, his heart is filled with emotion. The descendants of the two princes of Yan and Ning are in the same room again after a hundred years.On a cold and snowy night, Zhu Houzhao was not stingy with affection in his heart, and King Ning was not a heartless person.
Zhu Houzhao was breathing steadily, and he was probably asleep. King Ning said in a low voice, "Every descendant is taught every morning, and we must not slack off in writing and poetry. In addition, we also go to the outskirts of Nanchang to practice riding and archery. In the mountains, trekking through mountains and rivers in a few days is like marching, and you will develop perseverance." Zhu Houzhao was exhausted, and he heard only a few words in his drowsiness. No wonder, he was assassinated before he ascended the throne, and the emperor's uncle could light a fire in the wild to satisfy his hunger. , is really a pillar of shaping... He finally couldn't stand it anymore and fell asleep...
In the middle of the night, everything was silent, except for the footsteps of patrolling the camp, there was the sound of falling snow. There was no iron horse and glacier falling asleep, only deep sleep. Unexpectedly, Zhu Houzhao turned over and almost rolled off the bed. There was a faint glow on the bed, and King Ning had fallen asleep at his desk.Zhu Houzhao came to him softly. King Ning rested his face on his upper arm. His nose bridge was straight, his eyelashes were thick, and his cheeks were clear. Foreigners are good at sneak attacks. battle situation.If the emperor's uncle really had a different intention, how could he stay here in this bitter, cold and barren place, camping for several months without any reward, but he is already extremely rich, and he is still making friends with powerful officials and gathering people's hearts outside, no emperor will just sit idly by Reason, Zhu Houzhao has repeatedly entrusted his kindness with family affection and tenderness, and hoped that King Ning would no longer be "a master with great achievements", but once King Ning left in a cloud and a wild crane, would he still be the talented and gorgeous person who made him intoxicated?Zhu Houzhao was extremely contradictory, and he couldn't help leaning down to help him put on the cloak. His beautiful face without a trace of defense was within easy reach, and he kissed his forehead lightly.
King Ning has keen senses. Before he could get up after hearing the subtle breathing around him, he felt the soft kiss. Rejecting this consolation is like a traveler in a world of ice and snow who will not extinguish the fire for warmth, and then relaxes his vigilance and falls into a deep sleep.
Zhu Houzhao looked at the peaceful sleeping face contentedly. For just a moment, he hoped that all the shackles and shackles would disappear. As long as he stayed in this world and locked up this simple time quietly, life was enough.
At dusk on the second day, dozens of people led by Ji Rong finally arrived at the military camp of King Ning. At that time, King Ning was bidding farewell to Hasa outside the gate. Go home and realize your ambition.As soon as the front team left, the rear team arrived. As the name suggests, Jin Yiwei's clothes were gorgeous, and the status of the royal family was the highest. But now the wind and dust came, and Ji Rong's men with sad faces also took off their flying fish suits in order to match the emperor's micro clothes. The armor of the military academy is resentful like a defeated army coming to ask for help. Ji Rong originally thought hard about how to pass on His Royal Highness Qiantui so that his soldiers and horses could let him into the camp. In the meantime, he was tall and straight, and with the sight of the well-organized military camp behind him, he looked even more heroic. Ji Rong also agreed very much. The number one beauty in Ming Dynasty in everyone's gossip messages deserved his name. Not only did he see the reinforcements, he was as good as Seeing the god, "Your Majesty!" Ji Rong and the others jumped off their horses and bowed to the end, "Who is here, who broke into the important place of the military camp?!" Shan Zhou was startled by the surrender, but still performed his duty.
Ji Rong cast a glance at Shan Zhou, frowned and smiled wryly and looked at King Ning flatteringly, the meaning is self-evident, lord, the emperor is here with you, it is best for you to let us in to drink and rest, if you don't let us in, the emperor will hand over Here you go.
King Ning stood still, and looked back at the tent of the Chinese army. The emperor woke up in the morning, and has been catching up on sleep in the afternoon.Ji Rong caught King Ning's eyes, and then he felt emotionally, Your Majesty, you have already slept on King Ning's bed, so let us go if you are satisfied.
King Ning looked at the team again meaningfully, and stopped embarrassing them with marching documents and badges, and ordered to Shan Zhou to let them pass.
Thanks to Ji Rong and the others, they finally entered the camp and got a military tent for rest. I don’t know how King Ning confessed their identities, but on Monday, they changed their vigilance at the gate and came to the tent very sincerely, offering There were plenty of drinks and food for food and drink, and a group of people who were about to cough up blood finally found a way to avoid dying in the line of duty.
Now that the emperor has relied on King Ning, Ji Rong can finally close his eyes and take a nap. After a short rest, the sky was dark, the drums in the camp were rumbling, and the military music was loud. He immediately paid the bill and saw a raging fire in front of the tent of the Chinese army. Around the bonfire, all the soldiers were beating drums and singing around the flames, drinking strong wine and eating barbecue.
Zhu Houzhao had already changed into the same general costume as the head coach, and he and Ning Wang lived in the center of the main seat, toasting and drinking with everyone.There is no complicated etiquette in the palace, and there is no rich and noble place with carved beams and painted buildings. On the desolate land on the border, the flames, the smell of wine, horses, and military camps arouse the blood and pride in the man's heart. He blends into ordinary soldiers and enjoys the pure love with them. The military banquet is joyous.
"Come, come, I'll toast General Zhu!" Shan Zhou led several generals to toast, "General Zhu is young and promising, he is already a mighty general of the court at such a young age!" King Ning was listening to this According to his self-proclaimed military position, Zhu Hou had to drink with his head down. His wine was mixed by himself, and it was very dull.Zhu Houzhao was in high spirits, and the army he yearned for finally came true. He was happy to mingle with the sergeants, especially King Ning's subordinates, "General Zhu, I don't know what rank this mighty general is?" Several people gathered around and drank a few bowls It became "brothers".
"The emperor said it was first-class!" Zhu Houzhao waved his hand!Another night was filled for him.
"Oh! I've seen the great general!" Everyone quickly saluted and laughed together.
"Isn't the first-rank military general in the court the commander-in-chief of the world's soldiers and horses?" Someone in the crowd asked, General Zhu drank too much, his hearing was not sensitive, and King Ning almost choked in his throat with a sip of wine.
"Hey, General Zhu, have you seen the Generalissimo of the Army and Horses in the capital?" They were all drunk, and the highest rank of a military general was naturally what the soldiers were most willing to mention.
General Zhu couldn't count how many bowls he had eaten, and when he heard this question, he replied even more boldly, "Of course I have!"
"Who?"
Shan Zhou is King Ning's confidant, so he naturally knows what the prince thinks. He looked at the calm Prince Ning, and then at Zhu Houzhao. He guessed that his identity must be precious, otherwise the prince would not personally find someone to introduce into the Chinese army He would not hold a rare military concert, he instinctively felt that these conversations had become very "dangerous", the military power in the world is the prince's aspiration, if he remembers correctly, there was someone who was chosen in the last emperor's edict.Of course King Ning knew about it, and of course he had seen it. He hadn't seen him for many months. He didn't know what kind of tricks he was playing in the court. If it wasn't for him, the military power in the world would have already belonged to him.His loyalty to Zhu Houzhao is enough to make himself have to admire, even though King Ning doesn't think he is good enough to be an opponent now.
Zhu Houzhao was drunk, he looked at the figure of King Ning, and saw Ji Rong in the crowd. The cold wind blew by, and he suddenly felt refreshed. King Ning had come to Ji Rong, "Master Ji!" Ji Rong shivered immediately "My lord, I don't dare to be a petty one, just tell me if you have anything to do!" Obviously the emperor is the rightful master of Jinyiwei, but Ji Rong feels that King Ning is more oppressive, and King Ning is not like the emperor, wearing a full set of armor. Only the brocade clothes are worn on the chest, shoulders, and wrists with exquisite battle armor, and the chest and waist are embellished with exquisite jade pendants. The purpose of the banquet is to relax the vigilance of the enemy and lure the enemy to attack, and our army can wipe out its remnants in one go." Ji Rong realized that King Ning was confiding military secrets to him, "So at that time, the safety of the emperor..."
"The little one will protect the emperor's safety." Ji Rong quickly replied, sincerely admiring that King Dao Ning is worthy of being King Ning. Looking at the sleeping emperor, you don't have to exhaust yourself to follow, this move is really powerful.King Ning nodded, believing that Ji Rong would protect Zhu Houzhao well and would not become a burden for him to kill the enemy with all his strength.
King Ning made a good estimate. The remnants of Wuliangha who escaped from here have been provocative recently, so King Ning took the opportunity to hold a big banquet in the army, making the enemy mistakenly think that he was lax in defense, and lured them to come to sneak attack, so as to wait for work and wipe out them in one fell swoop. Remnants of the enemy, the frontier has been stable for many years, which is why his troops have not withdrawn for many days.The two had their own concerns, and walked towards Zhu Houzhao in the middle of the bonfire one after the other, only to see the "general" and the soldiers chatting happily, bragging about their years of experience, "I eliminated the rebellion of the four kings, went to the south of the Yangtze River, and came again." When you get to this border, you are the most heroic Ming soldiers I have ever seen." Shan Zhou didn't dare to drink, and told himself intuitively that this general could not be offended, and he retorted silently, we are the guards of King Ning's residence, and if you don't return to the Ministry of War, you Don't try to draw us into the border guards.
"General Zhu, I've been to so many places in Ming Dynasty, where is the girl the most beautiful? Hahaha." In the crowd, you talked to each other, and started the most popular topic among the people.
"I only look at the sergeants, not the girls. Besides, the places I have been to are limited. After this march is over, I will go to other places to see more." The students of Guanzizai Academy mingle together.
"Where are you going then?"
"I'm going to Haozhou!" Zhu Houzhao asked after another night of drinking, he was used to the harshness of wine.
"Hao...?!" One of the selected accompanying soldiers blurted out. Shan Zhou covered his mouth with a slap and gave him a warning with a vicious look. Zhu Houzhao didn't realize it. He had longed for this place for a long time, "Haozhou is I am the land of Longxing, Haozhou is the beginning of my foundation in the Ming Dynasty, Haozhou has been a treasure since ancient times, and Haozhou is where my capital is located, Hao..." Zhu Houzhao gave several reasons in succession, and every sentence was rejected The nearby King Ning heard it, and Ji Rong tilted his head and cast a respectful but perceptive look at King Ning. King Ning came forward calmly, "My lord! My lord! Let's have a drink together, my lord!" King Ning thought in his heart. Quite resentful, these warriors usually drink like water, why haven't they drunk the emperor today, he was about to pick up the sea bowl himself, but when he heard the urgent sound of war drums, it was as shocking as thunder, King Ning raised his eyebrows and his eyes were sharp Looking at the gate, everyone came to their senses and dispersed to stand firm. Zhu Houzhao didn't respond for a while, and looked blankly at the people who had just talked and laughed and feasted. Hand, go out to defend against the enemy.
It happened just in time, King Ning slightly raised his head and pursed his lips with a smile, looking at the sky illuminated by countless torches in the distance, amidst the rumbling roar and the sound of thousands of horseshoes, he was complacent in the middle of the battlefield, Wu Liangha Remnant was indeed attracted, he nodded with a smile, his mind was on the battlefield, and he didn't notice that Zhu Hou was looking after him at all.
"The enemy is coming, the battlefield is dangerous, Mr. Ji, please take General Zhu...to the rear army to rest!" Shan Zhou and other relatives are still beside King Ning, and the scheduled battle is coming, all of them are eager to try.
"Yes!" Ji Rong saluted on one knee, and answered very faithfully. It would be safer for the emperor to avoid danger. He very much agreed with King Ning.
"No, I want to go with the emperor!" Zhu Houzhao changed his drunken attitude and said firmly. He was wearing armor, and he had the aura of a general in an instant.
The Zhu family has a large number of relatives, and I guessed that General Zhu is a high-ranking official at a young age and has an extraordinary status. It turns out that the backup of the prince is higher than General Zhu!Shan Zhou and the others nodded silently.
The words of King Ning were on his lips, and he was about to refute, but Zhu Houzhao took the lead, "The last time when King Zheng sent troops, the emperor went to the battlefield alone. This time I will definitely not miss it again." His eyes were firm, and no matter what King Ning did Even if he refuses, it will not change. Shan Zhou recalled the battle when he personally greeted King Ning on the outskirts of the capital.King Ning looked at the Yuanmen, the elite soldiers ambushing outside would attack the enemy, and waited for his military order to attack with all his strength, the military situation was changing rapidly, he had no time to persuade Zhu Hou according to his kind words, turned his head to look at Ji Rong, and signaled him to directly attack the emperor Carry it away, and then King Ning will stand up to carry it.Shan Zhou and the others were still amazed that someone could make the prince jealous. General Zhu is a god.
Ji Rong stretched his neck, which means that his life is in danger, and the prince himself will do it.Regardless of the two of them, Zhu Houzhao directly stepped on a steed beside him. He held the reins tightly on the horse and practiced riding and archery for many days. After chasing, he rode his horse and galloped away.
King Ning and Ji Rong were shocked, "Your Majesty!!" Shan Zhou tried to kneel but there was no one there
