Entering Beijing (1)
In February of the following year, news suddenly came to the news that the emperor had passed away and the seventh prince succeeded to the throne.
One day, the emperor and the ministers, the officials above and below each had their own ulterior motives, and the generals in the army also discussed it, especially the generals of Prime Minister Zhu's direct lineage all passed on information and inquire about each other.
The Phoenix Army did not rely on the faction. Peng Dong wanted to ask Jun Yu's thoughts several times, but he didn't ask much when he saw that she was always alive.
After ten days, Jun Yu was commanding the Phoenix Army Group to train the battle formation. A guard from Peng Dong rushed over quickly, with a look of panic, and said loudly from afar: "Young Master Jun, it's not good. General Peng fell off the cliff on a horse. The situation is urgent now..."
Jun Yu was shocked and immediately rushed to Peng Dong's camp. Peng Dong was lying on the bed, his eyes closed, and three military doctors stood aside helplessly, obviously dying.
Jun Yu stepped forward and took a breath, and Peng Dong was already dead.
It turned out that when Peng Dong led several soldiers to hunt and chased a elk, he fell down a cliff with his men and horses.
Although Peng Dong is a mediocre person, he has been his own general of Taiping for many years and has no objection to the big and small things in the army. Seeing that he was in his prime and encountered such misfortune, Jun Yu felt very sad and immediately began to arrange his funeral.
Before Peng Dong's funeral was completed, the palace's chief eunuch Wang suddenly came to Phoenix City under the order, and Xuan summoned Junyu and Peng Dong to the capital to meet the saint.
When Peng Dong was alive, he could still go alone. At this time, Peng Dong had died, so Jun Yu could not refuse, so he had to take Sun Jia and Lu Ling to Beijing immediately with the prince.
On this day, Jun Yu followed Eunuch Wang to the court for the first time. As soon as he entered the Golden Palace, he suddenly saw Meng Yuanjing and Zhu Yu both here. When they saw Jun Yu, they were even more overjoyed.
The two drove out the Red Jin army in the Mongolian grassland for nearly a thousand miles, and returned to the court not long ago. All the civil officials and military generals were the first to see the rumored "Flying Commander in Fengcheng". They were all surprised. Only Prime Minister Zhu, whose face was as deep as water, almost spitting out of his eyes.
The seventh prince has a gloomy personality. Since he ascended the throne, all civil and military officials have been terrified to understand the holy intentions. Today, the first time I saw him smiling in the court, I couldn't help but feel relieved.
The eunuch Zhao had long read the imperial edict, and Meng Yuanjing was promoted to the general of the Southeast, replacing Xu Heng, the general who had retired and returned home, went to the Southeast to wipe out the Japanese pirates. Zhu Yu was appointed as the commander of the Beijing Army and the general was the commander of the capital.
Peng Dong unfortunately died early and pursued his family, while Sun Jia replaced Peng Dong's position and led troops to Phoenix City. Lu Ling and other generals were also rewarded.
Eunuch Zhao continued to recite with a sharp voice: "... General Phoenix City Jun led the Phoenix Army to make great achievements for many years, but never made contributions. He is actually a good minister of the state. Now he is awarded the title of Grand Marshal of the World, and the general commander of all the troops of the six northern provinces. He is given a general's mansion in the capital..."
The ministers looked at each other. Before the Seventh Prince ascended the throne, he was the Grand Marshal of the World. In addition to the royal family, this position was only known as the great honors of the wealthy family, but now he has been named a young man in his twenties.
Prime Minister Zhu gave a wink. Several generals were about to come out to persuade them, but the emperor waved his hand to stop them. Eunuch Zhao immediately took another memorial and read it slowly. However, it was Jun Yu's dozens of battles on the northern border in recent years, and he had no defeat. Among them, there were three major battles. I think the emperor had made sufficient preparations to block the opposition.
Jun Yu looked up and touched Meng Yuanjing's gaze. Meng Yuanjing nodded to him happily. Jun Yu also smiled, but he was secretly complaining in his heart, but he had no choice but to take one step.
Due to the rampant Japanese pirates in Fujian and the war on the southeast front was urgent, Meng Yuanjing was ordered to return to the front line immediately after the fifth day of the next day. The two of them just sat down in a hurry and even left without even having time to talk.
In the evening of that day, Jun Yu, Sun Jia and Lu Ling walked into the so-called "Master's Mansion of the Great Marshal" for the first time. Although the boss's yard was full of servants and was heavily guarded, there was no familiar face.
The housekeeper brought out many posts, including greetings or invitations from princes and ministers in the capital, and even several marriage proposals. Jun Yu didn't even look at it, and only chose some of them for Sun Jia and asked Sun Jia and Lu Ling to socialize on his behalf.
After this arrangement was completed, it was already the moon. Sun Jia and Lu Ling went to rest. Jun Yu pondered for a while and was about to rest when the housekeeper suddenly reported that Wang Jun was visiting. After the seventh prince ascended the throne, Wang Jun had become the guard with swords in front of the imperial guard.
Jun Yu went out and saw that Wang Jun was surrounded by a light and simple person, the current emperor.
When Jun Yu saw him coming in disguise, he didn't say anything. He sat in the hall of three people. The emperor said, "This time, he issued an order to appoint him first without the consent of Mr. Jun. He was afraid that the prince would refuse, so he hoped that he would understand."
Jun Yu smiled and said, "What can I do if I don't understand the appointment now?" What surprised her was that the Seventh Prince had ascended the throne and was willing to visit him in such a sacred manner. He respected the wise and the poor, and it can be seen that he had not only made some plans but had major plans.
Sure enough, the emperor said, "Since I ascended the throne, internal and external troubles have not been slowed down. Nowadays, most of the officials in the court are disciples of Prime Minister Zhu. I am always obstructed by every effort to take power and are hindered by all matters. And the generals have won half of them. Even though they ask for money, food and money from the court, they have been defeated repeatedly and have made no achievements. If there are more talents like General Meng, I don't have to worry about it every night, and I will not be willing to eat."
Prime Minister Zhu once secretly assisted the third prince. After the emperor ascended the throne, he naturally wanted to remove the big thorn around him, but his foundation was not stable and he did not dare to act easily. Jun Yu thought secretly that the battle for imperial power under the bloody storm would cause such a huge wave. The emperor now vigorously supported his own power. Although it was just for his own dragon throne to sit firmly, he had made some achievements in border wars. He surpassed Prime Minister Zhu's hand to cover the sky, so he nodded and said, "Jun Yu should do his best to the northern border. Please rest assured."
The emperor was overjoyed when he saw that although she had answered lightly, her attitude had changed a little compared to the last time. Wang Jun was also happy and left in disguise after the emperor.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
That night, the spring rain and wind sounded. When I woke up in the morning, it was still chilly and the thin rain was flying.
Jun Yu walked out of the gate of the Shuai Mansion. On the left side of the gate was a long alley. The rows of willow trees had already hang down, green. She had just walked a few steps when she suddenly saw two red high hats in front flashing and disappearing at the end of the alley.
Since returning from Shuzhong, because of Tuosang, she carefully collected some information from that major sect, especially when the "Emei Pioneer" and "Detective Red Army" confronted each other, several monks in red appeared in the army, which attracted her attention. Over the past few days, the Dongfangjiuan intelligence system has also vigorously collected information in this area. Helplessly, both sects acted very mysteriously, and the sky was far away and the earth was far away, so they did not obtain much effective intelligence. They only knew that the battle between the Red Sect and the Yellow Sect has become increasingly fierce recently. In particular, the leader of the Red Sect has secretly reached certain agreements with King Hu.
Tuosang destroyed the Buddha's teeth in the secret room in Shuzhong. Although Jun Yu didn't know what the significance of Buddha's teeth was for them, he thought that both religions had dispatched a lot of manpower, especially Master Danba's gaze that hated him to his core, even though he knew that Tuosang was "Bokedo", he was still vaguely worried about his situation.
At this time, the thin rain was still floating, and Jun Yu turned around and walked back along the long row of willow alleys.
A man was standing under a huge willow tree, his clothes were slightly wet, and I don’t know how long he had been standing.
The man turned around and it was Zhu Yu.
Jun Yu was also happy to see the only acquaintance in the capital and said, "Zhu Yu, why don't you go in?"
Zhu Yu looked around and was silent for a while and suddenly said, "The first time I came to your general's mansion, I should always give you a gift."
Jun Yu took it, but there were two scrolls. She unfolded the first one, which was the portrait of her father collected by the Love Demon. When the Love Demon was shot dead by Master Danba in the Cold Garden, she was in a semi-coma. When she woke up, in chaos, her father's portrait had long disappeared. She originally thought that she might never see her again in this life, but now she can't help but feel happy when she sees her.
She unfolded the second picture again, and the fine brushwork was the first time she saw her. The woman in the painting had a beautiful eyebrows and bright eyes, but it was her mother, Lancisi.
