Tuo Huan's face turned gloomy, as if all his energy and energy had been sucked away all at once.
"Son...go, take Arutai's head to see the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty." Tuohuan said with strength, "The Oara tribe is gone. The Tatars are already strong. After this battle, the Oara tribe will no longer be an opponent. Without the support of the Ming Dynasty,
, I’m afraid of the general, I’m afraid of the general…”
"My child understands, Father, please hold on." Boyan Timur's eyes turned red, "Wala cannot live without you!"
Tuo Huan smiled bitterly, "The good situation was ruined like this. It's not a good thing that Wala lost me."
"No, no," Boyan Timur comforted, "This is an emergency. Who would have thought...it has nothing to do with my father."
Tuo Huan breathed a sigh of relief and braced himself, "I will leave the Wala Department to you. Son, please remember that you must be loyal to the Ming Emperor in the future."
Tuohuan knew who his son was, but he didn't have that much thought at all. Even if his strength was equal, there was no way he could be a match for the Tatars, and even internal stability would be difficult to achieve.
He could only follow the Ming Dynasty wholeheartedly, rely on the Ming Dynasty's assistance to fight against the Tatars, and rely on the Ming Dynasty's power to intimidate the inside.
Tuohuan doesn't have high demands on his son, he doesn't ask him to dominate, he just wants him to lead his tribe to survive and live well.
"My child remembers it all."
"Can it be done?"
"Yes." Boyan Timur nodded heavily.
Tuohuan looked at his son and smiled...

Mid-Autumn Festival.
After a day of having fun in the palace, Zhu Zhanji dragged his tired body back to Qianqing Palace to handle government affairs.
After the cabinet obtained the right to vote, the emperor's workload was not heavy, but Zhu Zhanji was not at ease with them and still had to go through it;
And from time to time, some of them would be rejected to serve as a warning and let the people in the cabinet know that the emperor is watching every day, so work hard and don't have any bad intentions.
He is very suspicious, but his suspicion is necessary.
Zhu Zhanji was very experienced and read the memorials very quickly, cutting off the beginning and ending, because the beginning and end were all useless nonsense.
Even so, it was already late at night after reading today's memorial.
After stretching, Zhu Zhanji breathed a sigh of relief. Today's work was finally done.
He was too tired today. He spent a whole day hunting, archery, and playing Cuju... playing with the ministers and catching up on government affairs. He spent too much energy.
"Alas... I won't go to the harem." Zhu Zhanji stood up and walked to the bed in the inner hall, ready to go to bed.
At this time, the little Huangmen on duty walked in with small steps and said, "Your Majesty, the Queen wishes to see you."
"Well, let her in."
"Yes." Xiao Huangmen responded and turned around.
After a while, a beautiful woman came in with a medicinal meal in her hand and said with a smile: "I know that no matter how busy or tired the emperor is, he has to deal with the government affairs of the day. The medicinal meal I prepared myself can not only nourish the stomach but also nourish the body.
."
Zhu Zhanji took it and put it on the imperial desk, pulled her to sit down, and said with a smile: "It's really hard for you to stay up so late. I've told you many times that I just let the servants in the palace do this.
Why do you, the Queen, need to do it?"
"When I am idle, I am idle." Mrs. Sun stood up and asked Zhu Zhanji to sit down. "I give the Emperor a shoulder massage to relieve my fatigue."
"Well..." Zhu Zhanji leaned back comfortably on the chair, enjoying the rare leisure.
The two were childhood sweethearts. Sun entered the palace at the age of ten and was recruited into the Prince's Mansion when Renzong was still the crown prince.
Zhu Zhanji was only ten years old at that time. They were the same age and met often, and Sun was extremely beautiful.
A talented man and a beautiful woman, as they grow older, they begin to fall in love, and they secretly have feelings for each other;
Originally, according to the development of the plot, it should be that the two fell in love and achieved good results;
However, when Zhu Zhanji came of age, Zhu Di directly came to beat the mandarin ducks with a stick!
Of course, Zhu Di is not going to be hard on a girl. The reason why he does this is also very simple;
Sun's father, Sun Zhong, was the chief registrar of Yongcheng County. Zhu Zhanji's mother, Zhang, was also from Yongcheng County, and it was Zhang who brought Sun into the palace.
At that time, the conflict between Zhu Di and the civil servants had reached an irreconcilable point. Whether it was due to the suppression of the civil servants or the consideration that the future daughter-in-law and grandson-in-law might join forces and give the foreign relatives monopoly, they had to strike this blow.
Therefore, he appointed Hu as Zhu Zhanji's official wife.
The euphemistic name is: As the old saying goes, take a virtuous wife, take a concubine and take a beautiful woman. You can take the woman, but you cannot make her your main wife.
Zhu Zhanji loves beauty, but he loves country even more, so: Grandpa Huang is right!
Later, when Zhu Zhanji became emperor, he wanted to abolish the Hu family and make Sun the queen. The reason was for no other reason than that she was sensible, docile, beautiful, and capable of getting into trouble. Who wouldn't be confused if she left her alone?
But I want to think about it, but I have no suitable reason.
After all, it was appointed by Emperor Taizong, so it can be discarded at any time.
It wasn't until Sun gave birth to a dragon son that she finally had an excuse.
Zhu Zhanji proposed to change the Sun family name on the grounds of establishing the foundation of the country.
However, facts have proved that it is not an easy matter to abolish the queen. The queen is a mother of all people, and even the emperor cannot abolish the queen for no reason. There are fierce disputes in the court.
In the end, it was Yang Shiqi and Yang Rong who assisted so much that Sun was able to ascend to the throne.
Yang Rong directly listed dozens of Hu's faults. Zhu Zhanji didn't have much affection for Hu, but he didn't want to bury them, so he dismissed them.
Therefore, Yang Shiqi proposed that Queen Hu could not give birth to a dragon son, perhaps because God was not happy with her and her merit was shallow.
In this way, Queen Hu withdrew from Kunning Palace, the master of the harem, and became a monk directly.
At that time, Zhu Zhanji was focused on letting Qingmei take the position. Looking back now, he found it quite absurd. At the same time, he also realized his mistake.
However, there is no reason for the emperor to admit his mistakes.
Moreover, since the crown prince has been established, abolishing the crown prince's biological mother will shake the foundation of the country. Regardless of political or personal considerations, it is not appropriate to change the queen.
"Alas..." Zhu Zhanji sighed.
"What's wrong, Your Majesty?" Mrs. Sun asked in concern, "But I've pressed you too hard?"
"Nothing." Zhu Zhanji waved his hand, "I'm tired, you can go back and rest."
Mrs. Sun said "Oh" and said in a low mood: "Your Majesty, please rest early. I have resigned."
After taking two steps, he turned back and said, "Eat something before going to sleep. You won't sleep well if you're hungry."
"Um."
Zhu Zhanji smiled and nodded.

Early next morning.
When Zhu Zhanji opened his eyes, it was already noon.
Not to mention the morning and afternoon dynasties, I missed them all.
He was a little angry: "Why doesn't anyone call me?"
"It was my concubine's idea." The curtain was raised, and Mrs. Sun walked in, timidly saying: "The emperor is busy with everything, and I was afraid that the emperor would tire out his dragon body, so..."
Zhu Zhanji glanced at her and said in a slightly cold tone: "I won't do this next time!"
"Yes, I have written it down." Sun nodded slowly.
Zhu Zhanji ignored her and said coldly: "Come here, send these serving young eunuchs to Nanzhili to guard the mausoleum of Taizu."
The few Xiaohuangmen who had just relaxed were suddenly struck by lightning and kowtowed hurriedly, "Your Majesty, forgive me, forgive me...!"
Zhu Zhanji's eyes were cold, he glanced at Sun again, and left with a puff of sleeves.
Sun's heart trembled, and her face turned pale.
She didn't expect him to have such a big reaction.
At this time, the son's voice sounded outside the door: "My son, please see my father, my father..."
After a while, the son ran in frustratedly and said aggrievedly: "Mother, my father ignores me."
"Your father is busy." Mrs. Sun forced a smile, "How about my mother playing with you?"
…
Royal study room.
Zhu Zhanji summoned cabinet members to discuss national affairs.
Just as he was talking, Yu Qian rushed in, followed by several small yellow gates, "Your Majesty, forgive me, but I really can't stop you, Minister Yu."
Yang Shiqi frowned: "Yu Qian, no matter how urgent the matter is, you have to report it first. This is the palace."
Yu Qian ignored him and went straight to Zhu Zhanji and said succinctly: "Your Majesty, there was a bloody battle on the grassland, and there were heavy casualties. The leader of the Tatar tribe, Arutai, was killed, and the Oara tribe was defeated!"
"Alutai was killed and the Oara tribe was defeated?" Zhu Zhanji was surprised but also a little puzzled, "Yu Qian, did you say it wrong, or did I hear it wrong?"
"Both are correct."
Yang Shiqi continued: "What's going on? Why don't I, the Minister of War, know about it?"
Yu Qian still ignored him, "Your Majesty, Boyan Timur of the Oara tribe is waiting outside Juyong Pass, requesting an interview."
"Well..." Zhu Zhanji pondered for a moment, "Send someone to pick him up immediately, be quick."
"I obey the order." Yu Qian hurriedly cupped his hands and left in a hurry, not saying a word to Yang Shiqi from beginning to end.
Yang Shiqi was so angry: After all, I am also your boss. Are you, Yu Qian, too crazy?
"Your Majesty, I have violated the rules of conduct before Lord Qian. Not only did he barge in without permission, but he also failed to follow court etiquette. It is really too presumptuous."
"Hey~ He is also anxious." Zhu Zhanji didn't take it seriously and said with a smile: "Let's keep busy."
The emperor didn't care, and Yang Shiqi couldn't say anything else, so he could only say: "The emperor is as humble as a valley, and the humble ministers admire him very much."
