How could such an elite cavalry be trained without regular discipline?
As an emperor, doesn’t it mean that I want to do whatever I want?
Is marrying a wife just to find someone to take care of you?
It’s too hard.
Zhu Youde decided that the Deng family must cancel the engagement.
"Xuzhou's 200,000 troops..."
Wang Zhonghou lowered his head and pretended he didn't hear anything. He suddenly felt a little pain in his feet. He looked up and saw Zhu Youde staring at him.
"Why are you pretending to be dead? I'm telling you what to do with Xuzhou's 200,000 troops."
"Your Majesty, you should discuss such important national affairs with Mr. Lu. I dare not say anything." Wang Zhonghou did not want to get involved.
If you can express your opinion on this kind of thing, wouldn't that be seeking death?
If you mix it up again, it might make the emperor unhappy.
"Lu Shengzhi...let him in!"
Zhu Youde thought for a while and decided to let Wang Zhonghou go. It was not easy for eunuchs to participate in such important national affairs.
After waiting for a while, Lu Shengzhi came. Seeing Zhu Youde's lively appearance, he couldn't help but twitch his face.
"Your Majesty, why are you doing this?" Lu Shengzhi smiled bitterly and said, "The Deng family's wife is very good."
You know a thing.
Zhu Youde complained in his heart, "Don't talk about that, let's talk about Xuzhou's 200,000 troops. I am going to take away the Xu family's military power. What can you think of?"
Lu Shengzhi cupped his hands and said: "As long as your Majesty marries Madam Deng Yu, Xuzhou's 200,000 troops will naturally belong to your Majesty. The Deng family is also willing to hand over military power. This is the best policy."
“There is no other way”
"Your Majesty, I just met the Deng family's wife. She is really good. She is in good health and has first-class looks. She also has long legs. Isn't that what Your Majesty likes?"
Ouch, you old man still knows how to have long legs?
It's true that I like long legs, but...
"Character, character!"
Lu Shengzhi said: "She has a strong character and manages an army as if she were a family. She is truly a talented woman. She is a rare and extraordinary woman throughout the ages."
Zhu Youde suddenly became very fed up, Lu Shengzhi, have you taken advantage of others?
This is how you speak for others.
"Besides asking me to marry her, is there any other way to get the Deng family to hand over military power?"
Lu Shengzhi said: "Then we can only give the Xu family preferential treatment."
"Glory and wealth can be discussed. I am willing to support them as long as they hand over the military power. Two hundred thousand troops stationed in Xuzhou is too much."
Lu Shengzhi also agreed. After thinking about it for a while, he didn't think of a better solution than marriage.
"Your Majesty, let's get married, you won't lose anything!"
"Lv Gong, don't be joking. When the woman comes into the house, will I still have a good life? She looks like a tigress at first glance!"
The key point is that Zhu Youde can't beat her yet.
The degree of cooperation may not be very high, and life may not be happy.
Lu Shengzhi shook his head: "Then I can't help it. How about this? Your Majesty asks me to ask?"
"All right."
Zhu Youde had no choice but to do this first.
Counting from the generation of the founding emperor, the Deng family has guarded Xuzhou for more than three generations and more than fifty years now.
Zhu Youde felt that it was inappropriate for a family to stay in one place for such a long time. Over time, even if the Deng family did not want to rebel, the people below would want the Deng family to rebel and become emperor.
So if Deng and other members of the Deng family hand over their military power now, he can exchange them for anything.
Zhu Youde believed that his country could tolerate people like the Deng family.
Regarding the matter of marrying Deng Yu, Zhu Youde was just acting, no one knew what he really thought.
Wang Zhonghou didn’t even know.
The late emperor was a good-for-nothing, just let him be cheated. After all, the emperor died and left the country to him. Zhu Youde was also willing to cheat such a huge inheritance.
But there is no need to let a good female general enter the palace.
Just because he is the emperor, he cannot accept all the beauties into the palace. Besides, he really doesn't like to be controlled.
Deng Yu was so heroic, he should have lived his life as a general.
Although the palace is nice, it is not a place where flying dragons can live for a long time. It is destined that my dragon will stay in the palace.
Zhu Youde glanced at Wang Zhonghou: "Now, Lu Shengzhi has expressed his views on Xuzhou. Now you can say it. Didn't Jin Yiwei monitor Xuzhou?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, I think it is better to marry Mrs. Deng Yu. Your Majesty actually likes such a woman, right?"
"Nonsense, this kind of woman is talented and has a good figure, why shouldn't I like her? But as the emperor, I can do whatever I want."
You usually do whatever you want, but this time you are more reserved.
Zhu Youde put down the tea cup in his hand as if he had put down his thoughts: "Wang Zhonghou!"
"His Majesty!"
Wang Zhonghou knelt down quickly. When Zhu Youde called his name, it was time to tell him something.
"Besides the Deng family, there are several other families in Xuzhou. I have been outside the city of Xuzhou for half a day, and I haven't seen any other families. If they don't want to come see me, then let's destroy them all!"
"Yes!" Wang Zhonghou stood up: "The three families of Zhang, Li and Wang have long been disobedient. It has always been the Deng family that suppressed these three families. Now that your majesty comes in person, they are still hiding from you. They should destroy the three families, but
It would be better for Your Majesty to ask the Deng family to help out. If word spreads that Your Majesty is a wise king, it will damage His Majesty's reputation and may frighten other aristocratic families."
This is true, and Zhu Youde also agrees with it. His main purpose of going north this time is to strengthen Xuzhou's military defense and completely solve the problem that Xuzhou's local aristocratic families have been entrenched for many years.
Now it seems that the Deng family is still very loyal, but it may not be possible if he does not marry Deng Yu.
From a political point of view, he should marry.
People all over the world also feel that this must be the case.
But Zhu Youde is not a local aboriginal, and Deng Yu is a modern female boss. What kind of character does this woman have?
Those who are not suitable to enter the palace are like a prison for women who once held military power.
Zhu Youde's thinking this way actually goes against the rules of the emperor in the feudal era. Why would the emperor care about whether a woman is happy in the future?
Feudal women should be hidden at home and be the vassals of men.
Zhu Youde felt pity for Deng Yu. This was the first woman he saw when he was reborn into this world, who could have her own career according to her own ideas.
He is a role model for women in the world. When Deng Yu entered the palace, he just gained an extra wife, but women in the world lost a role model.
He was not really a fatuous man, so he could clearly tell the difference. In Deng Yu, Zhu Youde saw how to liberate women.
"Keep talking!" Zhu Youde was thinking about things and waved when Wang Zhonghou stopped.
Wang Zhong said kindly: "Your Majesty, the ancestors of the three major families of Zhang, Li and Wang were also generals under Taizu. Each family has thousands of tribes. The three families have been entrenched in Xuzhou for many years. The relationship between the military and the army is complicated. Only Deng Xing can suppress them. Deng Xing
Without my help, it will be really difficult for Your Majesty to subdue the 200,000-strong army in Xuzhou."
