After the Yan army had breakfast, they marched to the gates of Beiping City and launched an attack on the Ming army that was besieging the city. The Ming army surrounded the city on all sides and their forces were scattered. In one aspect, their strength was not superior to that of the Yan army.
The morale of the army was high. The nearly 100,000 troops were elite soldiers brought from Daning Dusi. They had just fought a battle yesterday, but the imperial army had been under the city of Peiping for a long time. They were exhausted of men and horses. As a result, the Ming army was at a disadvantage as soon as the battle began.
Seeing the sudden appearance of King Yan and the huge increase in troops, the generals of the Ming army wanted to ask Duke Li Daguo for countermeasures. Unfortunately, Li Jinglong, like a rabbit, had already gone to Dezhou to eat braised chicken, and the generals could not find him.
As a general who was fighting against rebellion, he had no choice but to fight on his own.
These generals are really good at fighting. They struggled for two days and ran out of food and grass before they were defeated. The Yan army chased them with cavalry for a while and then withdrew their troops. The defenders in the city opened the city gate and the king of Yan
Zhu Di returned to Peiping in triumph.
King Yan and Concubine Xu have been surrounded by dangers for more than a month. The city of Beiping was about to be destroyed several times. King Yan seemed to be in no danger outside. However, if the trip to Daning was delayed, it would be a narrow escape. Now
For the rest of their lives, the couple hugged each other and cried with joy.
But no matter what, once the big crisis was resolved, Zhu Di finally gained a foothold in the north. After acquiring 80,000 elite troops from Daning Dusi, the King of Yan not only greatly increased his military strength, but also gained a greater strategic space. The imperial court had an army of 500,000.
Once the news of such a complete defeat spread, one can imagine how much shock it would cause to the imperial court.
"Wenxuan!"
"Brother Shimei!" (Shimei, Zhang Yu)
"Haha, Wenxuan is here."
"Oh, brother Shihong, has the arrow wound on your arm healed?" (Shihong, Zhu Neng)
"Wenxuan is here. It's Lao Qiu's birthday today. There will be a family banquet tonight. It's just a few familiar friends. Let's have some drinks. I invited you. You kid is so elusive that I can't catch you. I'm here.
It's a perfect coincidence. I must come at Xu time tonight."
"Brother Qiu Fu, you're welcome. Brother, I will definitely arrive. I will definitely arrive."
Since Xia Xun entered Prince Yan's Mansion, all the people who came in and out were familiar faces. Whoever he pulled out was the future Duke or Marquis of the Ming Dynasty. As soon as he nodded to one, he waved to another.
, a person walked towards him, and he quickly bent down to bow. Xia Xun knew everyone in the palace, and all of them were princes, which made him panic, like a drunken Sun Dasheng strolling through a peach feast, dancing and dancing all the way.
Xia Xun came to ask for pay. The soldiers and horses have not moved, and the food and fodder have gone first. Now his soldiers have gone first. What can he do without money? Money is needed to spy on military intelligence, and money is needed to place eyes and ears behind enemy lines. The funds for this activity were in Xingzhou when King Yan
Although I promised him, I haven't given it yet.
The money came from King Ning, and the money from Prince Yan's palace had long been turned into military pay for the defense of Beiping. Although King Ning was a little hesitant on important matters related to his life and future, he thought clearly about such matters. Now he and
King Yan is a grasshopper on a rope. If King Yan succeeds in peace, he will be able to get back all his money. If King Yan fails, the best outcome for him is to go to Nanjing and look at his nephew's face to make a living. Therefore,
He took out all the money from his palace to make up for the military needs. However, these belongings, including the personal belongings of Prince Ning, his concubines and their families, were all packed together and sent to Prince Yan's Mansion. At this moment, Xia Xun was sorting them out.
I just have to come here to get it.

In the palace of King Ning, King Ning was writing at his desk. King Zhu Di of Yan stood aside and watched his brother splashing ink.
Ning Wang's pen did not stop, like a dragon and a snake, and a beautiful article was written in a moment. Zhu Quan put down the brush and put it aside, with a slightly proud look on his face. King Yan Zhu Di lifted up the slogan he had just written and blew
I picked up the dripping ink and held it in my hand to watch carefully: "Li said: "The hatred between the king and the father is irreconcilable, and the hatred between the brothers will not be counterattacked." Today, I, Taizu Gao, Prince Gao, will not avenge the king and his relatives.
Huh?
I have always remembered my father's existence. Because the spring and autumn are high, I summon all the kings to come to the court once or twice every year. My father said to the kings: "The reason why I call all your sons to come to see you once or twice every year is
Why? I am old and worried about my illness. I can’t see you. How can I not know how hard you are crawling back and forth?" My father is still in such good health. He has been ill for a long time, so how can he not come and summon me?
See you all...
The ceremony said: "If you are sick and drink medicine, your ministers will taste it first. If you are sick and drink medicine, your son will taste it first." Today, Yi is the son of his father, and he is entrusted to Yan. He travels three thousand miles to Beijing and pays pilgrimage every year.
The horse can only travel for seven days. Since my father has been ill for a long time, why don't people come to report it? So that when I see my father, I can know what the disease is and what medicine to use, so that I can fulfill the courtesy of a son. How can a father be ill and not let the son know about it?
?How can anyone be a son and not know that his father is ill? Is there any country in the world where there is no father and son? Is it wrong to have a country without father and son? Those who do not have the courtesy of father and son are not human beings!
Emperor Kuang's father died before the tenth day of the fifth lunar month, and he was buried at Yinshi. I don't know why he was so quick. The ceremony said: "I will be buried in three days, and I will wait for his resurrection." Isn't it etiquette to not be buried in one day? In ancient times, today is the next day.
, from the emperor to the common people, how can there be a father who dies but his son does not know about it? How can there be a father who dies but the son cannot go to the funeral? After more than one month, the prince and the world will know about it. In this way, my parents and children will be the same as the common people.
I don’t know why my father, Emperor Ziguang, was buried in seven days, or why it was so fast? The ceremony said: “The emperor was buried in the seventh month.” Today, the burial will be held in seven days, what about the ceremony? Now I see the edict saying, “The father and son of the common people of Yan
, How can it be mourning to bury my father with the courtesy of a common man?"
Zhu Di praised: "Wonderful, wonderful, our good nephew keeps talking about benevolence, justice, loyalty and forgiveness, and being the most benevolent and filial. Is this filial piety? Fang Xiaoru and Huang Zicheng pay attention to the word etiquette in everything. Is this in line with etiquette? Brothers have a pen, like a gun.
Halberd, every word attacks the heart!"
Zhu Quan laughed and said: "Fourth brother is ridiculous. Fourth brother, please read this sentence: Confucius said: "The father is watching his ambitions, and the father is dead watching his actions. If you do not change your father's ways for three years, you can be called filial."
Villains, who conspire to be evil, use clever words to deceive, and confuse the ancestral laws. The imperial preface of "Huang Ming Ancestor Instructions" says: "All my descendants, who inherit my orders, do not be clever and mess with my perfect laws.
The word cannot be changed! The treacherous minister Qi Tai and others did not obey the laws of the ancestors and committed treachery. They are so rebellious and unethical. How should they be punished!"
Prince Ning had just moved into Prince Yan's Mansion. He didn't have time to take care of things up and down, and he didn't care about many rules for a while. Shan Ning was waiting aside. The more she looked at her, the angrier she became. She turned around angrily and walked out of the palace. In her opinion,
, King Yan is a king, King Ning is also a king, King Ning is especially stronger than King Yan, there is no need to grovel and be a swordsman-like figure in front of others, King Ning is not ashamed, but she is full of humiliation.
When they arrived at the courtyard, they saw Xia Xun holding the handwriting of King Yan and making arrangements with the steward of Prince Ning's Mansion. The steward had been ordered by Prince Ning. When he saw that the handwriting was correct, he took him to carry the property. Xia Xun brought a few people over.
, they were all members of the Flying Dragon Secret Agent he selected from the army, and they would move back the selected belongings.
Xia Xun's secret espionage agency has the functions of an intelligence agency and a special force. It can spy on the enemy, assassinate enemy chiefs, and monitor internal civil and military movements. After all, a large number of officials came to the imperial court, and their loyalty has yet to be tested. In short, everything is extraordinary.
They all have to bear the responsibilities of regularity but the means of serving the war. Therefore, Xia Xun is an eclectic mix of talents of all kinds.
When Shan Ning saw Xia Xun, she couldn't help but walked over and sneered happily: "This is not Yang..., I'm sorry, I really don't know what you are doing next to the Yanwang Palace."
What kind of mission? It stands to reason that your highness, King Yan, was able to successfully escape the border and bring back an army of 80,000 troops. You can be said to have made the greatest contribution. How come... you are not even a general?"
Xia Xun smiled, cupped his hands and said: "I have met the empress in humble position. What the empress said is that I am now at the side of the palace, that is to say, I am a subordinate, doing some small things that other generals are not willing to do, charging into the battle, I am brave."
It's not enough, how about dispatching troops and generals? I haven't read the military books, and you know what you are doing. I am still very satisfied with my current position."
When Shan Ning heard that there was something in his words, he couldn't help but put on a pretty face and snorted coldly.
Xia Xun saw that his men had not finished moving the belongings, so he said to Shan Ning: "The empress has just entered the palace and hasn't settled down yet. How are you, Your Highness Prince Ning?"
Shan Ning said angrily: "Okay, why not? Your Highness is so full of thoughts that he just wrote another message, which was highly appreciated by His Highness King Yan?"
Xia Xun stared deeply at Shan Ning, glanced around, and saw no one was around to listen to them, so he said seriously: "Mother, Xia Xun will leave Peiping tomorrow to go to the local area to raise food and grass for His Highness Prince Yan.
, I have something to say before leaving, I don’t know whether to say it or not.”
Shan Ning glanced at him in surprise and asked, "What do you want to say?"
Xia Xun said solemnly: "Empress, a hero can only be called a hero if he does what others cannot do. But those who do what others cannot do are all forced. If possible, who would be willing to do these things? Only those who become heroes can become heroes.
Suffering, His Highness Prince Ning is happy with ease, so what’s wrong with it? What does it mean to be ambitious? If possible, I would only be willing to accompany my beloved wife and son, under the fence of the fields. If possible, His Highness Prince Yan will also be his Taiping
Your Majesty, I don’t want to embark on this uncertain road.
Your Majesty is the wife of His Highness Prince Ning, and she is the woman who will accompany him throughout his life. Do you want your man to charge into battle all day long, and be afraid of him, or would you rather be with him day and night, loving each other? Your Majesty, I know, the children on the grassland worship them.
A hero, because a man who is not strong cannot protect his family, wife and children, and his family will not be able to survive in the event of natural disasters or man-made disasters. He must be strong. But His Highness Prince Ning does not need to be like this, right? Heroes are used
They are here to worship, not to live together."
After Shan Ning heard this, if he was moved, his original angry look disappeared, and his eyes fell into deep thought.
When Xia Xun saw that his men had already moved all their belongings, he bowed to Shan Ning and said, "This is all Xia Xun said. I hope the empress will think twice and say goodbye."
Shan Ning still stood there, the sun shining on her pretty figure, making it dazzling. She watched Xia Xun go away silently, without moving even a step for a long time...
