"Haha, haha! Don't worry, if you say it out loud, even if you throw out the water, you will definitely do what dad promised you, just say it!" General Zhenguo said with a hearty laugh.
"I haven't thought about it yet. Once you think about it, tell dad. You can't default on the debt!" Zhu Minglan still looked coquettish. This time, even Qi Zhengzhong behind him was attracted.
"Okay, let's wait until you think about it!"
A few people chatted like this and arrived at the hall. General Zhenguo sat on the main seat astride his horse, but before he could speak again, a sharp shout came from outside the door: "My emperor's decree has arrived.
, Zhu Zhenyun, Zhu Minglan accept the order!"
Zhu Zhenyun, who had just sat down, immediately stood up and took Zhu Minglan to greet him. A eunuch held a roll of purple silk, opened it and read: "[Zhenguo General] Zhu Zhenyun defeated the enemy and protected the country, and his contribution lies in the country; [Yao]
Princess Yue] Zhu Minglan has a wise heart, extraordinary heroic appearance, and has repeatedly performed extraordinary feats. We specially recruit Zhu Zhenyun, the general of the country, and Zhu Minglan, Princess Yaoyue, to enter the palace and have dinner with the lonely king! I appreciate this!"
"Long live my emperor; long live; long live!" Zhu Zhenyun and Zhu Minglan accepted the imperial edict. Zhu Zhenyun said: "Manager Wang, let me change my armor and then follow my father-in-law into the palace!"
"Of course, General Zhu invites you first!" Manager Wang said.
Zhu Zhenyun and Zhu Minglan went back to the back hall to change clothes. Qi Zhengzhong frowned, looked around, and quietly left the hall. Qi Zhengzhong's behavior did not attract the attention of the servants of the Zhu family, but Manager Wang paid attention.
He looked at her sideways for a while, but he didn't care and just regarded him as a servant.
Qi Zhengzhong returned to the small courtyard alone and slowly entered the bamboo forest, feeling the natural atmosphere inside!
In the palace, a gentle-looking elder is sitting on the dragon chair. He is wearing a purple brocade robe and a gold-plated crown. He is reading memorials. His whole person exudes a natural aura of a superior!
This person is none other than the Emperor of Fengxian Kingdom, Ouyang Zhengxiong. It has been thirty years since he ascended the throne. He has worked diligently and rectified the national power, more than doubling the national strength of Fengxian Kingdom and expanding its territory by a quarter. He is known as
[Emperor Renwu]!
However, in recent years, due to his old age and the fact that he has never established a reserve, his reputation has been slightly worn out, and the countries in the four directions are ready to take action!
Emperor Renwu had four sons and three daughters. The eldest son, Ouyang Di, was thirty-one years old. He was not calm enough and acted in a biased manner. The second son, Ouyang, was twenty-six years old. He knew that he had no chance of becoming the emperor. He spent his days studying poetry and painting and performing martial arts.
The third son Ouyang Shuo, twenty-four, is enterprising and proficient in everything, but has a gloomy temper. The fourth son Ouyang Jin, twenty-one, is full of knowledge and dislikes martial arts. He likes to make friends with the world most. He often pretends to be a scholar and plays with the people. He is also the only one.
Someone who can get along well with Ouyang Shuo. Of the three daughters, except for the younger daughter Ouyang Zheng, who was married at the age of seventeen, the eldest daughter was married to Quan Heng, the son of the right prime minister at the age of twenty-seven; the second daughter was married to Zhu Zhenyun's eldest son at the age of twenty-seven.
Zhu Fenghao
"Your Majesty! General Zhu Zhenyun and Princess Yaoyue Princess Zhu Minglan are waiting outside the door!" Manager Wang hurriedly walked a few steps to the Yellow Emperor and said.
"Well, they are here! Xuan!" Emperor Renwu said cheerfully after hearing this.
After hearing this, Manager Wang turned around and shouted: "Your Majesty has a decree: Zhu Zhenyun, General of Xuanzang Kingdom, and Zhu Minglan, Princess of Yaoyue Princess, have an audience!" Following Manager Wang's sharp shout, Zhu Zhenyun and his daughter entered the imperial study.
"'Veteran Zhu Zhenyun!' 'Zhu Minglan!' Meet the emperor!"
"Haha, be safe! This time, thanks to Xiao Minglan burning the grain and grass of Zixu Kingdom, he easily pushed back his 400,000 troops, and the Yaogu Pass of Fengxian Kingdom was able to be secured. It was a great achievement. If it were lost,
Yaogu Pass, Zixu Kingdom can use the pass to send troops to attack the cities of our country at any time." Emperor Renwu said peacefully.
"The Emperor will never praise this girl anymore. She is already a big girl. All the old ministers are worried. This girl doesn't have a husband yet! She can only lead troops to fight, but she can't be a nvhong. She can't get married!" Zhu Zhenyun said.
The previous picture said it worriedly.
"Haha! When I personally select a versatile civil and military person for Xiao Minglan, he must be worthy of Xiao Minglan! Right! Xiao Minglan, you have made such a great contribution this time, what should I reward you with?"
Zhu Minglan suddenly heard that the emperor was going to propose her a marriage, and her heart trembled inexplicably, and she had the idea of resisting, but then she heard the emperor said that he would reward her, and asked her what reward she wanted!
After careful consideration, Zhu Minglan said: "Minglan thanks the emperor for the reward, but Minglan doesn't want any reward. She just asks the emperor to allow Minglan to choose her own husband!"
"Huh?" Emperor Renwu and Zhu Zhenyun glanced at each other after hearing this, and then looked at Zhu Minglan with a strange look, guessing in their hearts: "Does this girl have a lover? Whose son is he?"
"Ahem!" Realizing his gaffe, Emperor Renwu coughed slightly and said: "Xiao Minglan, tell me which family's boy is so lucky? I want to personally grant you a marriage, what do you say to you now?
She is also my princess! Don’t lose your dignity!”
"Ah, to report to the emperor, Minglan has not yet... but...!" Zhu Minglan muttered. After all, she is a girl. She had already mustered up the courage to say the words of choosing her own husband. Now let her
She didn't dare to say anything else.
"Haha, it doesn't matter. There won't be any now, but there will always be in the future. Let's do this. No matter whose boy you fall in love with, it's that boy's blessing, and I will grant you a marriage. Also, Concubine Jin misses you.
, go and see her!" Emperor Renwu said.
"Yes, Minglan resigned first!" Zhu Ming said as he retreated.
Concubine Jin is one of the main wives of Emperor Renwu, located in the West Palace. She is the sister of Zhu Zhenyun, the biological mother of the second prince Ouyang Nian, and the biological aunt of Zhu Minglan. Zhu Minglan has been doted on by this aunt since she was a child, and she is often recruited into the palace to accompany her.
"Zhenyun! Does your precious daughter have someone she likes? I just wanted to grant a marriage, but she is anxious to choose a husband on her own!" Seeing Zhu Minglan gone, Emperor Renwu changed his appearance as a king.
, instead he asked Zhu Zhenyun like an old friend.
"Oh! Your Majesty, I don't know about this either. I just came back today. Who knows if this girl really has fallen in love with a boy from a certain family!" Zhu Zhenyun no longer acted like a respectful courtier.
"Forget it, it's your daughter anyway. As long as she doesn't marry a foreigner, I agree with whoever she marries. But, forget it, let's not talk about this. Come on, come on, tell me about this war.
situation." Emperor Renwu said.
The best thing in Emperor Renwu's life was to expand his territory. If it weren't for the fact that when he took over, the national power began to weaken, and he spent a long time to rectify the national power, he would have doubled the territory by now. Zhu Zhenyun was exactly the one who surveyed the people.
I made a friend at that time, who was also regarded as a confidant by Emperor Renwu because of his versatility in both civil and military affairs. Within a few years, he led troops on the battlefield and made numerous meritorious deeds. In his spare time, the emperor and his ministers were very casual. The two of them were like this in the study.
They started chatting and found out that Emperor Renwu had already made a decree that when he was discussing matters with the generals of the country, no one was allowed to wait around or disturb him.
Zhu Minglan went to see Concubine Jin, and did not talk about it, but said that Qi Zhengzhong left the main hall and returned to the small courtyard. He stood in the bamboo forest for a long time until he felt a little tired, then he strolled back to the study. There was something wrong in the study.
He wants to learn less about this planet, and reading is also a very important way.
So I picked up a book and looked at it. After flipping through a few pages, I found that it was full of humanities and places. I felt overjoyed and looked back at the title of the book "Travel Notes on Travels to Various Countries"! It is indeed a good book. Hurry!
I slowly flipped through the book and learned about each country on the planet. I looked at the area marked in the book and made a rough calculation. It turns out that this good guy is at least four times the size of the earth.
According to the description in the book and my own knowledge, this planet is dominated by mountains, flat land, and very few running rivers. Therefore, the continent is basically one country per river, in short, there are countless countries.
On average, one country declines and another rises every year! According to the book, Fengxian Kingdom has a history of at least three hundred years, and it can be considered a big country on this continent.
Zixu Kingdom is a country with a history of 500 years. The two countries are feuding. They have a small war for water every three years and a big war every five years. There are constant small frictions!
