[Zhu Ning] For the sake of the country

Rubbing his hands in the cold wind, he didn't understand, "This time, the eldest prince and the sixth prince commanded the Oirats. The old Khan of Oirat only had these two sons. In the future, the Khan of Oirat will be one of them. If we move It should have a big picture to understand it with emotion and deceive it with reason.”

In the warm inner room, King Ning also learned the news that his personal conquest had been frustrated. Not only the news from Beijing, he also received a secret letter from his old opponent.Since the farewell to Daning, the hometown of Wuliangha in the past, King Ning has almost forgotten this bad friend, and the good opportunity has been missed. He has no interest in who Wala came to court, unless...

"My lord," Ye Zi walked through the huge palace and came to the inner room. This private room is located in a quiet place with a winding path. The window lattice on one side is opened, and it is a stage. The actors perform the love, hate and pursuit in the world. Today There was no opera on stage, King Ning just looked at the empty stage, "According to a reliable eyeliner in the palace, the emperor left the palace in secret."

"He didn't hesitate to fight against the ministers, and wanted to conquer by himself, so why did he change his mind again?" King Ning pondered. Take a look." King Ning is not interested in these threats, but if these words are copied and written to the emperor, in case the emperor loses at the border after leaving Beijing... This is an opportunity, a rare opportunity for the capital to be empty for many years, King Ning stood up After walking a few steps, how long has he not seen Zhu Houzhao?That pair of heroic eyebrows appeared in front of his eyes, but he didn't forget it at all. King Ning coughed a few times, and the old wound on his chest actually felt a little painful.He unfolded the formal letters from the Qianqing Palace but couldn't tell how much truth and falsehood they contained, and wrote back.

As soon as he leaves, King Ning stands at the main entrance, looking up at the plaque of the palace. He has little feeling of nostalgia and hesitation, but today, for some reason, he misses the palace under the sun. He does not know what kind of power struggle he will face in Beijing. However, it may be difficult to get back the simple leisure and elegance of the vassal king.King Ning was dressed in winter clothes, with fox fur on the collar, and the hair on his forehead fluttered in the wind and licked his face. He looked at the century-old palace, where the royal family was full of hustle and bustle. It was nothing but power and wealth. The four kings made trouble and used the crown prince. After years of careful planning, the men, horses, food, and grass are all ready, and they are finally useful. Now he is on the way to the north again, to seize everything Zhu Houzhao has. He looks away and raises his whip, " Set off!"

The strong city walls of the Xuan Mansion were already visible, and Zhu Houzhao was almost out of body temperature due to the wind and snow. Immediately, he told Ji Rong beside him, "Go to the city and order the general to open the gate."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty," Ji Rong opened his mouth and felt that it was full of icy scum, "We left too quickly. There are no documents, no jade seals, no soldier charms, no tokens. I'm afraid the defenders of the city will ignore me."

"As long as the Wala people roar on the other side of the Great Wall, we will let them enter the customs and go to Beijing. Could it be that I am not as good as those Wala people?" Zhu Houzhao worked non-stop for five days and nights. If they are not allowed to enter, why should they call Banwala.

Ji Rong wiped his face, his tears were frozen into ice, and went to call the city alone, and after an hour, he really came back dejected.Zhu Hou took care of his sluggish appearance, and held a grudge against the general guarding the city.I had no choice but to find a hunter's house in the suburbs to stay overnight, so I could have hot tea and Kang Kang.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, wake up, the sky is already bright, and the Wala people are going to pass through the Xuan Mansion today." In the early morning, one person turned his back to the sunlight pouring in from the window, and said to him gently, Zhu Houzhao rubbed his eyes, sleepy and couldn't see clearly Who is it? This voice is extremely familiar.

"You are?" Zhu Houzhao jumped up.

"Oh, it's me."

Just as Zhu Houzhao said that he was about to speak, he heard a burst of artillery fire and the sound of war drums in his ears. There was a pool of blood under the feet of the person in front of him, and a wound on his chest was covered with blood all over his body. Called but could not make a sound, the dream came to an abrupt end.

In the early morning, Zhu Houzhao opened his eyes and saw only ordinary dwellings. When he let King Ning go back to Jiangxi, in addition to being forced by the ancestral system, he also had the determination to renounce his love. King Ning was ruthless and unloyal. A good emperor, as long as he is an emperor, he can bear what ordinary people can't bear, and do what ordinary people can't do. It's just that a thousand days and nights have passed, and I still feel sad in my heart. A famous badge, a page of poems, and a few portraits are all my affection.

He reached into the skirt of his clothes with one hand and touched the name badge. The word "Hao" witnessed all his heart, but he had never called him by this name.

Departing from Nanchang, along the Ganjiang River to Poyang Lake, and then down the river, to Nanjing, Yingtianfu, and then along the official road to the north. People from all walks of life sent military information from all walks of life." Shan Zhou guarded King Ning all the way safe and inseparable. At this moment, the people and horses had been welcomed into the city by the local government. King Ning walked into the post house from the eight-person sedan chair, and heard Shan Zhou coming. report.

King Ning has always felt throbbing pain from an old injury recently, he has not felt this feeling for many years, he pressed on his chest, intending to continue for a week.

"The commander-in-chief of the world's soldiers and horses," Shan Zhou paused, and then continued, "I have issued a commander's order to order elite soldiers from all over Liaodong, Jizhou, and Tongguan to rush to the Xuanfu to fight against the army of Wala Chen soldiers on the frontier. Worries, the war is all over."

After hearing the words, King Ning looked at Shan Zhou in surprise. It was late at night, and the lights in the dormitory were deliberately turned off, but Shan Zhou could still see the doubt flashing in King Ning's eyes. in one breath.

The Grand Marshal of the World’s Army and Horses just doesn’t understand, his military order should be Zhu Houzhao’s, otherwise, he would not have the need to provoke the imperial power in military power, and the elite soldiers and horses in the world rushing to the Xuan Mansion means... means that the Emperor is there!What is the emperor doing in Xuanfu?The Oirat army is provoking trouble there, does he want to conquer it himself?Why didn't the personal conquest directly lead the mighty army to march out and approach the enemy?It is necessary to hide his whereabouts. Could it be that the emperor discovered Oara's conspiracy?Just relying on Hasa of Wala, he still can't make up any tricks, but the eldest prince has heard the sage for a long time, so he has to guard against it.Shan Zhou had already retreated, King Ning cleared his mind and smiled slightly.

Outside the city of Xuanfu, Zhu Houzhao called the city in person. Feng Zhizhong, the chief soldier of the Xuanfu, knew that he would be imprisoned if he pretended to be deaf and dumb and could not drive away the subdued emperor. Enter the state of preparation and wait for reinforcements from all walks of life.

The eldest prince Toqi of Wala and the sixth prince Hasa were on their way as usual, and they should be able to reach the border of the Great Wall in three days, and further south is the territory of the Ming court.Tozi brought a lot of gifts and sincerity this time, aiming to do business with Daming, form an alliance to show goodwill, and grow Oala with abundant products, so that he will no longer be attacked by the Tatars at will.Hasa came to Toqi during the break, "Brother, I learned that the Ming army has gathered 20 troops in Xuanfu, waiting for us to throw ourselves into the trap." Hasa looked resentful.Tozzi has a calm personality and quickly calmed down, "How did you know that?"

Hasa wanted to proudly tell the reason, but after thinking about it, he quickly found an excuse, "Since Emperor Zhengde came to the throne that year, didn't my elder brother send me to the capital to discuss trade matters? At that time, I stayed in the capital. We have recruited manpower and inquired about the news, and now the northern territory of the Ming Dynasty is mobilizing troops, and the capital knows about it.”

"Oh? I waited for the hospitality, but didn't get the hospitality?" Tozzi was a little disappointed and annoyed.

"Brother, what should we do? They have prepared an army of 20, and we can't go to die!" Hasa was filled with righteous indignation.

"Let me think about it." Tozzi was brave and resourceful, never reckless.Seeing that he had fallen into a trap, Hasa looked at Tozi with anxious eyes, "Brother, the knife is already on our necks, so let's make a quick decision." After speaking, he left the tent in a hurry.

Outside the city of Xuzhou, King Ning was contentedly admiring the sunset on the plains outside the city, and his whole body was covered with golden brilliance.

"My lord," Dan Zhou came back after drinking his horse, "our people have already gone to Oala and brought the lord's words with them."

The plains here are magnificent, King Ning looked forward to it with a smile on his face, "There is another good show to watch."

Shan Zhou said honestly, "I don't know my subordinates, please enlighten me."

King Ning stood with his hands behind his back, "The emperor, Chen Bingxuan's mansion, must want to fight against Wala, to dampen his spirit, damage his men and horses, so as to establish his prestige. If this is the case, it will be meaningless for me to wait for this trip, and I will hardly have a chance in the future." It is." Shan Zhou deeply agreed.

"Hasa, the sixth prince of Oara, covets the position of Khan, and this king can help him."

"So, what does the lord mean, let Wala fight among himself? Shall I wait to reap the benefits?"

"Hmph," King Ning sneered, "Infighting alone is not enough. This king wants to invite these two princes to the capital, and Hasa can do whatever he wants to seize the throne. At that time, he will take both of them as hostages and force them to go to the capital." The old Khan surrendered and became a minister. According to the temper of the old man, he must not be able to swallow this breath. At that time, the Oirat army can attack at any time, and let the general of the world's soldiers and horses resist for a while, as long as he can stop it."

Shan Zhou thought about it and couldn't figure it out, "If you don't understand, what kind of conspiracy and tricks will you use to fool Wala?"

King Ning glanced at Shan Zhou, "Isn't Hasa in the capital? To lure him into jumping over the wall and join forces with the Wala army at the frontier, the capital will also be affected. At that time, who do you think the emperor will send to lead the army to suppress Hasa and then attack Wala?" What? Who will the military power go to?" Ning Wang tilted his head and couldn't help laughing.

"Then you can only rely on the prince!"

"It doesn't matter if you don't hand it over to me. This king personally ordered the army to enter Beijing from Jiangxi to put down the chaos, and then we will see if the emperor will understand the current affairs." The sun was setting, and the night was approaching with stars. At the end of the sky, light and dark intertwined, Blue and purple, flowing gold, crimson, and fire orange are rendered in various colors.

"My lord, the imperial court's hundreds of thousands of Chen Bing are in the Xuanfu, vowing to crusade against Wala, how could they put away their troops and welcome the two of them into the capital?" Shan Zhou was still puzzled.

"That depends on what our emperor wants." King Ning turned around and set foot on the road back to the city.

"Didn't the emperor want to attack Wala?"

"The emperor's thinking is too simple. Wala is not Wuliangha, and it is not so easy to win. People and horses have gathered in the Xuanfu, and there has been no war for a long time. I am afraid that some people around the emperor will not agree to attack Wala directly," the two said as they walked. Walk behind them.

"Your Highness means you don't understand?" Shan Zhou guessed.

"Hmph," King Ning looked at the stars that gradually lit up in the sky, "The emperor not only values ​​military power, but also values ​​reputation. If Wala came here sincerely this time to express an alliance, do you think the emperor will start the fight without asking the reason? "

"It's not easy to go to war, otherwise, the world will lose its trust. Those Mongolian tribes will no longer be peaceful, and the frontiers of Ming Dynasty will be unstable." Shan Zhou answered the words, and he suddenly understood the prince's intentions, "So, the prince wants Wala to show up. The appearance of a sincere peace talk forced the emperor to receive him in a friendly manner and go to the capital to have a talk. Hasa intends to seize the throne. Instead of fighting head-on with our Ming army, whose military achievements are all based on the same, it is better to listen to the prince and come to the capital. family peace talks, or trade or alliances, so that I have the opportunity to make meritorious service, so that the old Khan will treat him with admiration." Shan Zhou thought about these intentions, "The prince is very resourceful."

Ning Wang smiled unabated, with confidence in his chest, "So, I estimate that the Oirats will be able to enter the capital in one month." The two of them mounted their horses and galloped into the city. After resting tonight, they will continue to enter the capital tomorrow. .

There was a lot of snow in Xuanfu City. Zhu Houzhao received the letter of credence from Tuoqi himself. Toqi didn't know that he was nearby, so one copy of the letter of credence was sent to the capital by the envoy, and the other was sent to Feng Zhizhong, the general soldier of Xuanfu. , Feng Zongbing did not dare to be negligent, and directly presented it to Zhu Houzhao. The whole letter of the letter is sincere, and this time he came here with sincerity only to show his goodwill. Tozi said frankly that in ten days, he and his brother Hasa will bring many gifts together. A team of 100 people came to the Xuanfu to knock on the pass, hoping that the general soldiers of the Xuanfu would open the city and let them go, so that they could go to the capital to meet the Emperor of Ming Dynasty.

The tenth day happened to be the time to go back and forth from here to the capital. Once the tenth day arrived, if Daming opened the city to welcome the two of them, they would naturally live in peace for the time being. It is a book of alliance and a book of war.

Zhu Houzhao pondered for a long time. Under the complicated and confusing situation, there is no one to entrust. He only thinks of his loved ones when he is lonely. He misses his father very much. If his father is still there, what will he do... Father, son Missing you, Zhu Houzhao looked at the snow all over the sky, and felt sad. I wonder if there is such a heavy snow in Tailing Mountain. There are green mountains and cypresses, and the snow is quiet. The father is asleep and will never be disturbed by state affairs, never again When I woke up, my father taught my sons and ministers to be benevolent emperors, so I opened the door to welcome guests, and let the Wala people see my rich Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Houzhao made a decision on the country's major affairs in a very short time. He sent the edict to Beijing, but he didn't know how to deal with the Wala people here, so he returned to Beijing first, because he had to report that King Ning was going to Beijing for a pilgrimage.

Tuo Qi's letter of credence received a sincere response from Ming Dynasty. The Taifu did not know how to go here to meet the mission. The general of Xuanfu ordered the deputy general to lead 300 people to personally escort the two princes' troops to Beijing.

I don’t know how easy it is to be an envoy. They are all people with family and country in their hearts. He chatted speculatively with Tozzi, and soon became a righteous brother. By the way, he taught him mahjong on the way. Huan, I don’t know how to win a lot of money to have a happy year. Hasa couldn’t stand the temptation of this game, and often joined the game, but in the end, his skills were not as good as others, and his elder brother was not as good as him. The loss was even worse. The chest stamped was very reconciled, but the next day he couldn't stand the gambling addiction and joined again, but he always lost money and lost money. In this way, under the absurd but effective countermeasures that he didn't understand, the Oala Mission went all the way with ease, without any tension. severe.

In the twelfth lunar month, the capital dripped into ice, and King Ning's men and horses also arrived outside the capital, and they could reach it in twenty miles. King Ning took a rest by the official road.

The vanguard had detected the movement of the capital and came back to report, "Your Majesty, today the Wala mission entered the capital. At this moment, there are lights and festoons outside the capital, and officials at all levels in the Shuntian Mansion are already waiting outside the city gate. I heard that the Grand Tutor does not know how to personally Welcoming them into the customs and escorting them all the way to Beijing."

"Oh?" King Ning heard that he put down his teacup and got out of the carriage.He looked at the road ahead, showing a confident smile, everything was under control.King Ning looked at his sleeves, he was wearing ordinary noble clothes today, not princely clothes, he flicked his sleeves, "Since this is the case, since the country has distinguished guests, this king will not join in the fun with the Oirat Mission. Shan Zhou went to the city with me in low clothes, and the rest of the people went to the city to meet in the mansion, and this king went to see for himself the sincerity of the Oirat mission."

Thousands of people gathered outside the Zhengyang Gate of the capital. Except for the central avenue, which was tightly held and waiting for outsiders, the rest of the area was full of people who came to watch.

King Ning overlooked the city gate and the crowd, and decided to take a detour through Chongwen Gate. He and Shan Zhou walked through the city gate and entered the bustling city, "I remember that inside Zhengyang Gate, there is Fengbin Tower, where the capital city The dim sum is a must, much more delicious than those in the palace, let's eat together while watching the Oirat missions enter the city, and take a look at their battles." King Ning smiled gracefully, and the warm winter sun shone On his face, it happened to make his eyes slightly close together, making his eyes roll and the corners of his eyes fluttering. Even Shan Zhou couldn't help being attracted by his eyes, but as a general, he quickly sensed his surroundings, "My lord, my subordinate I feel like everyone on the street is looking at you..."

"Huh?" King Ning focused his attention on the Pathfinder restaurant, and Shan Zhou said, he looked down at the front of his clothes and shook his sleeves, "I'm not wearing clothes with royal embroidery today? There are no stains on the clothes either? He glanced at the flow of people, and several women lowered their heads to hide their shyness. King Ning held back his smile and said to Shan Zhou, "Oh, they are looking at you. Mr. Shan is so suave, of course it can make women We fall in love with you." King Ning pulled out the folding fan of green leaves and green bamboo from his waist and opened it with a snap, covering his malicious smile.

Shan Zhou was at a loss for words, and he couldn't refute, so he followed King Ning and strode towards the restaurant.Being locked and focused by the crowd all the way, King Ning didn't care at all. He finally saw the eaves corner of Fengbin Tower, pointed to the front and greeted Shan Zhou, "Hurry up, if you go late, the dim sum you have may be gone." If it is a shop If the boss or other diners say that the taste of this restaurant is better than that of the imperial palace, that is definitely a bragging, and no one will believe it, but His Royal Highness Ning Wang, who has eaten all over the palace and eaten imperial food, commented like this, it is another matter, "The prince also likes it. This kind of thing for ordinary people?" Shan Zhou was puzzled by King Ning's taste.

"Food is only about deliciousness, not high or low." King Ning arrived at the restaurant and said, looking at the large plaque.Both of them wore jade belts around their waists, and their robes fluttered. Passers-by were pointing and admiring their backs in long gowns.

King Ning just wanted to enter the door, only to find that this restaurant is unusual today. There are a few people wearing casual clothes at the door, but it can be seen that there are extraordinary people patrolling the handles. , "Wait a minute, my lord, these people are unusual, it is estimated that there is something strange in the store."

King Ning glanced at the crowd at the entrance of the shop, a little disappointed and unwilling, "Go in and have a look!" After that, he put away his folding fan, lifted his clothes and walked into the shop. There were no diners in the shop, and there were still a few people in casual clothes holding hands. The shopkeeper happened to be pouring water and serving them himself. When he saw these two people coming in, his eyes lit up. If he was a distinguished guest who served him well in normal times, it was a pity that he could not welcome guests today. He nodded and bowed and said politely to King Ning "My lord, the shop is reserved by distinguished guests today, please go back." He said as he glanced at the few people sitting at the table drinking water nearby, with a wry smile on his face.

King Ning ignored those miscellaneous people, "Is that so, there are also dishes and snacks?" Although the tone was questionable, but with an undeniable power, hearing the cold sweat of the shopkeeper, he didn't dare to look up at him at all. The man rushed forward impatiently, "Let's go, let's go, didn't I tell you that today the venue is reserved, and no one is allowed to come in!" Shan Zhou took a stride, blocked in front of King Ning, and put the imminent man in his hand. The unsheathed weapon was pushed back, the man was caught off guard, and the whole person was forced to take a few steps back. Seeing that his companion was at a disadvantage, the surrounding people immediately went on alert and surrounded Ning Wang and the two, "Don't you understand? This store is not open today. Do your business, eat elsewhere!"

King Ning tapped his palm with a folding fan in his hand, "Hmph, there is no one in the whole capital who can order me, shopkeeper, do it for me immediately, and get one of each!" The food is like the momentum of winning the mountains and rivers.

"Bold!" These people have never heard of someone who dared to speak in such a tone. If they hadn't seen this extraordinary imposing manner, they would have rushed out.

Shan Zhou was ready to make a move. Hearing these rude words, King Ning's face sank. He was very unwilling to eat the delicious food that he had read all the way. I don’t have time to make some small dishes, but there are still some dumplings in the shop that I can provide to you, okay?”

King Ning's face became even more unkind, "Don't eat! If you tell you to do it, do it! I will greet these people for you." He bit the last two words very hard, making the audience feel a sense of deterrence and coolness.

"It's too noisy downstairs, go and see what's going on, and find out how long it will take to enter the city." The owner of the restaurant upstairs was waiting for someone to come, and he was a little impatient before the person waited.

"Yes!" The waiter led the order to come downstairs, and just as he was walking down the steps, he found that the figure of the besieged man was familiar, so he hurried to the center, and at a glance, King Ning also recognized him. Ning Wang's face suddenly changed from gloomy to very playful.The one who came down was Huang Sheng, the emperor's trusted eunuch.

"Ah, I didn't know that the lord came here, it's really rude!" Huang Sheng saw King Ning and quickly said rudely. He was very happy. If King Ning came, the second thing the person upstairs just ordered could be avoided. .

King Ning immediately understood that he was the only one who reserved the venue, and he still gave him face, "Eunuch Huang, it's been a long time since I've seen you, and I just want to buy two dim sum to go back. Is it possible?"

"Ah, you don't need to take it back to the palace. The private room upstairs has been prepared. Your Majesty is waiting for you." Huang Sheng was neither humble nor overbearing, and his tone was as usual. On the contrary, it made King Ning feel bad. The eunuch came out to eat and drink, but he didn't expect that the emperor upstairs was out of the palace. After being surprised, he calmed down and curled his lips. It was unexpected to see the emperor just after entering the city, but he had no hope of leaving, so he had to say, "Eunuch Huang, please lead the way." Bar."

Only then did the Jin Yiwei in casual clothes and the shopkeeper know that this noble and heroic figure is actually a prince!They all speculated secretly, could it be His Royal Highness Ning Wang who is number one in the Ming Dynasty...

King Ning signaled Shan Zhou not to follow, and went upstairs with Huang Sheng and entered the private room.

When Zhu Houzhao heard the door open, he just inadvertently raised his head and glanced outside the door, but couldn't take his eyes back anymore. The hidden flower of the other side of the heart was in full bloom in the severe winter.

King Ning wore a ochre-red sand-colored shirt and a jade crown, even if he raised his eyes, he could open the fortress that Zhu Houzhao had deliberately frozen in his heart. King Ning didn't know Zhu Houzhao's surging heart. Thinking of seeing each other in disguise as soon as he entered the city, he walked up to Zhu Houzhao, knelt down on one knee, "I see the emperor."

Zhu Houzhao forced himself to sit upright, "Excuse me..." King Ning got up when he heard it, and looked at him with his hands clasped, "Long time no see, how is the emperor? I see that the emperor looks good." He smiled appropriately.

Zhu Houzhao thought about getting up and standing up, but he was at a loss. He didn't know how to express this unexpected reunion after a long absence. Years of longing turned into a greeting, "Uncle Emperor... well..."

King Ning looked at the table full of dishes, rubbed his stomach, and responded in his heart, your eyeliner is all over the territory, who dares to be unscrupulous. "Oh, thank you, the emperor, for your concern, and I dare not make any mistakes." Zhu Houzhao realized the importance of this sentence. He gritted his teeth, and was unwilling to refute, so he heard King Ning say, "The emperor also likes to eat this phoenix." Is it the food of Binlou? You came here in a micro-service from the palace?"

Not a single word escaped Zhu Houzhao's capture, "Ah, yes! I like it too! Uncle Huang, please sit down and eat together."

King Ning always had a smile on his face, "Thank you, Your Majesty." Huang Sheng hurriedly arranged the seat for him, and the one who was very close to the Emperor's Sacred Heart was beside Zhu Houzhao. The display of the table, all the specialties in the store are on the table. He looked at the many plates and planned to pick one to eat first.Zhu Houzhao looked at his profile sideways raptly. He hadn't seen him for a few years. His appearance hadn't changed. It was still breathtaking, with a straight nose, light-colored lips, and the soft touch in his memory.

There are many things that need to be unfolded slowly in this trip, the most important thing is the emperor in front of him. King Ning picked up a few pieces of exquisite snacks for his stomach. Seeing that Zhu Houzhao did not put down his chopsticks, he picked up a piece with his own hands after chewing the food in his mouth. Put the lotus cake into his bowl, "Didn't the emperor say he likes the food here? Why don't you eat it?"

Zhu Houzhao looked at the exquisite snacks made in the bowl that were no different from real lotus flowers, then at King Ning, and smiled self-deprecatingly, "Uncle Huang is right, let's eat together." King Ning just smiled and said nothing, I guessed the reason why he came here in my heart, only heard the sound of a horn outside the window, and the crowd erupted in exclamation, "Come here!"

This elegant room is located on the second floor. The window is facing Zhengyangmen Street. The crowd on the street can see clearly. King Ning got up and came to the window, looking at the bustling crowd and the faintly visible team at the city gate in the distance, " Is the emperor here to personally investigate the Oirat Mission?"

Zhu Houzhao did not move, still sitting and eating half a piece of lotus cake. He happened to be able to see the back of King Ning. The king will come to the city, and he is just here waiting for King Ning to enter the city, to see the long-lost old friend, he does not have to face himself with the straightforward and true self, not the deliberate deduction of loyalty.The person in front of me, how can he be so cruel, he has not paid pilgrimage to himself for many years, secretly doing things that are unreasonable, the trip to the south of the Yangtze River was a good show he deliberately arranged, and there will be no warmth after the goal is achieved. Zhu Houzhao can find I gave thousands of reasons to persuade myself to use power to force him to submit, but I couldn't erase the loss in my heart.There is only this person in the world who can provoke all his emotions. As long as we meet, even if there is only a smile, he will be fascinated and unconscious.Knowing that the flowers of the other shore may not bloom in the world, but the world always wants to pick them and own them.

Zhu Houzhao finished chewing the last bite of lotus flower crispy cheese, and he also came to the bedside, side by side with King Ning, "I am waiting for the emperor's uncle here today. It turns out that the emperor's uncle is waiting for the Wala people." The leader of the regiment did not understand. He waved his hand wantonly on the horse, followed by the two princes of Wala, Tozi and Hasa. This is the reason, it was all perfunctory, he bent the corner of his mouth, and focused all his attention on Tozi, the eldest prince was indeed persuaded by the sixth prince to come to the capital, then the next thing is to see how Hasa will act, Hasa is a idiot It's best to listen to yourself obediently this time, otherwise if you mess things up again, it will really destroy your future, and it will be impossible to become Oara Khan.King Ning didn't hide his pride, Zhu Houzhao had a panoramic view of everything about him, even if he restrained all his emotions, Zhu Houzhao could still see the subtleties.

"The two princes of Wala are coming to Beijing. I have planned to hold a banquet in the palace in three days. The emperor must attend together." Zhu Houzhao turned his gaze back to King Ning. Although it was an invitation, it was actually an order.

It was only then that King Ning noticed the look in his eyes. He seemed to see the shadow of the first emperor, who was in charge of the city and the wisdom of all the people in the world.He secretly praised that this is what a descendant of the Zhu surname should look like, so that he can be an opponent, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the invitation."

During the conversation between the two, people from the mission passed under the window one after another, and the street was still full of people, very lively.After all, the emperor and the ministers of power still meet here, and the chessboard game has already begun. Don't ask for an unknown result, but want to have no regrets.

If it was Zhu Zheng in the past, he must have watched King Ning leave in silence, and then met in the palace festival, and tasted the taste of drinking alone, but now Zhu Zheng is no longer there.Zhu Houzhao no longer looked at the eloquent team outside the restaurant, and looked directly at King Ning, his eyes were unreserved, even King Ning was a little surprised, the fragile expression of fear for a moment did not escape Zhu Houzhao's capture, he was very satisfied and wanted to hug him Ning Wang's shoulder, but was dodged without any trace, Ning Wang sat back at the table and poured a cup of tea, "Uncle Huang still remembers that in Westgate Town, we were at Longfeng Restaurant together, and it was also a table meal. At that time, Uncle Huang misunderstood that I liked Miss Feng?"

King Ning was a little choked, and swallowed a sip of tea with difficulty, "The emperor is now super-dictatorial, and he should consider his heirs." Zhu Houzhao felt depressed, "Uncle, this time Wala came prepared, but no one in the court was satisfied. I would like to invite the emperor's uncle into the palace tonight to discuss the strategy."

Originally, King Ning expected to participate in the government, but now he said it with a kind of ambiguity that he wanted to cover up. "If it is inconvenient for the emperor uncle to enter the palace, then I will personally go to the palace to ask for advice."

I haven't seen you for a long time. Zhu Houzhao has indeed become more and more powerful. King Ning had thought about the power struggle in Beijing this time, but he didn't expect to be arrested as soon as he entered the city. "I will enter the palace tonight. Thank you, the emperor."

Zhu Houzhao nodded with a satisfied smile.The two parted from the restaurant. King Ning stepped into the mansion. He ordered the important officials in the capital to take care of things in the main hall.

Zhu Houzhao in the palace was also waiting for someone under the moon. He hadn't seen Tongchuan for a long time. He fidgeted and called Ji Rong, "Go to Prince Ning's mansion and check it out, huh?"

"...", Ji Rong thought of visiting the palace a few years ago, and suddenly had a bad feeling.Seeing Zhu Houzhao's murderous eyes, he silently took his orders and left.The location of King Ning's Mansion is easy to find, because when King Ning entered the capital, the mansion was brightly lit, this time Ji Rong didn't fly over the eaves and walls, but visited at the main entrance, "Next Ji Rong asks to see the lord." He said to the servants in the mansion.Ji Rong was ushered into the living room, and he didn't see his master for a long time. Everyone was just entertaining, but no one answered. He had to touch the ground again, climbed to the eaves of the palace, flew around, and was sure that King Ning was not in the palace.After following the emperor for many years, Ji Rong knew that regarding the matter of King Ning, if he just went back and returned to his command like this, he would definitely not see the sun of tomorrow. He was planning how to find King Ning's traces in the capital outside the palace, when he heard the next door. One vassal prince's mansion, another Zhumen compound on a street away is very lively, Ji Rong can hear wanton laughter in the cold wind, he is still considering whether to increase manpower to search, just saw a few routine patrols His subordinates came over and replied, "My lord, tonight Jiwang Mansion is hosting a banquet for the vassal king of Jingzhong, and the mansion is having a good time drinking."

"Oh," Ji Rong felt that he was lucky, "Who are the kings of Jingzhong?"

"Master Hui, King Ning, King Ying, and several county kings are all here."

"Yeah! I got it! Let's go back to the palace!" Ji Rong waved his hand, and the people dispersed in response. It wasn't that he was lazy and didn't go to Jiwang's mansion to verify, but because he felt that the emperor knew the result, and he would have no sleep tonight. King, the emperor is always special. The emperor knows that King Ning is having fun elsewhere, but he himself is waiting in the deep palace. That... Ji Rong didn't dare to think too much, so he quickened his pace and dared to go to the palace.

King Ji is a man of pride, since it is rare for the royal family to get together, he acted as the host and invited all the royal family with the surname Zhu in the capital to come. Anti-**** mansions are all in this area, very close to each other, and several tables were set up in the central courtyard of the palace. The feast brings everyone together. Compared with exquisite dishes, wine is more passionate. Dozens of large jars fill the open space in the courtyard. Tonight's party is named Drunk Drinking Thousand Cups, and dozens of singers are ordered. Playing music and singing, everyone drinking to their heart's content, hugging the singers from left to right, the sound of laughter and music spread far away, and this is what Ji Rong heard just now.

King Ji was covered with gold accessories, shining like a big ingot. He said to King Ning, who was seated in the main seat, "Brother, I haven't seen you for a few years, but your reputation has not diminished. I can even hear about you in the north." My sage, you have refused to come to the capital for several years, why are you interested in coming this year? You didn’t come here to fight the Wala people, did you! Brother, I advise you, you have already cleaned up Wuliangha, the emperor will not Return the fiefdom of Daning to you, and you will stay in Jiangxi as King Ning. This time when Wala comes, you don’t want to beat them up again, do you? The Wala people have a feud with us, but the country has its own emperor and they worry about it , we have no soldiers and no rights, and it is enough to be surrounded by beautiful women every day. Look, aren’t the women here all beautiful? I like that one and go home with you directly! Hahahaha!"

King Ji had all the good intentions, and King Ning didn't care about him. He didn't want to come here to drink tonight, but he didn't want to go to the palace even more. Before doing it, he would definitely be a virtuous and obedient minister in front of the emperor. The layout of Beijing and Central China has been planned, and he is unwilling to make false claims, especially after meeting Zhu Houzhao during the day. The boy's eyes are too ostentatious, which reminds King Ning of the past few ridiculous nights, so he simply came to this kind of presumptuous banquet Get rid of the suffocation in your heart.King Ning took the glass of flower wine in the hand of the singer, nodded and smiled at the girl, the whole body of the singer was soft, not to mention that this is a prince, even a down-and-out scholar with this appearance will follow him for a lifetime, not to mention that this is a man who is famous all over the world. Knowing King Ning, "My lord, can I have another sweet fruit?" The women were all cultivated by meditation, and their words and actions are full of affection, and King Ning has to admit that King Ji is a sexual embryo who can enjoy pleasure. "No, I'm full." Although King Ning's tone was soft, his eyes were very sharp. The woman was intimidated by him, and she didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore. King Ning was very satisfied with her wit, and got up alone and came to King Ji's mansion He opened the door and started to leave. He got into his carriage and lowered the curtains to isolate himself from the cold outside.
