Zhu Yunxi led more than 30,000 elite troops from the Beijing camp and was not slow to march. However, he was the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty. Every time he passed by, local officials from all over the country came to worship and listen to the holy teachings. The pace of the army became slow, not to mention that he himself
It's not too annoying either.
He simply left Dingyuan Marquis Wang Bi behind with his army, and he himself led a thousand personal guards to rush towards Peiping. At the checkpoints along the way, he did not identify himself, but asked Fu Rang to come forward and say that he was the first to march against Goryeo. Waiting for the advance.
After reaching the boundary of Peiping, he showed his identity. He slowed down slightly to give local officials time to prepare.
Ahead is Peiping, the ancient Great Wall between the lofty mountains. It is looming in the sight. Coupled with the endless wilderness, the majestic atmosphere of the North is full of sight.
This kind of atmosphere is different from that of Yingtian Mansion. Although the capital is good and it is also a great city in the world, but living in the gentle countryside in the south of the Yangtze River, I always feel that there is a lack of iron and blood. In the land of Peiping, facing the barbarians in the north, the Han Dynasty has been there for hundreds of years.
Hu repeatedly fought and fought, and constantly merged with each other.
This place is the northern barrier of the Central Plains, where all the men from Yan and Zhao can be summoned to offer sacrifices. It can be called the gate of the country.
In fact, Peiping is more suitable to be the capital of the Ming Dynasty than Yingtianfu. After the founding of the Ming Dynasty, there were worries about the three norths. Northeast, true north, and northwest. If there was a war, this place would bear the brunt.
Later, it was said that the emperor guarded the country for this reason.
Your Highness! A fast horse is coming from the front to report that the King of Yan and the King of Liao and the civil and military officials of Peiping have come out of the city to greet him. They are already ten miles away!
Got it! Zhu Yunxi said lightly.
Your Highness! At this time, Lan Yu beside Zhu Yunxi suddenly said solemnly, Peiping is the home of Yan Fan, and King Yan...
Don't worry! Without listening, Zhu Yunxi knew that Lan Yu was trying to say something trivial to Zhu Di, so he smiled and said, this time it is related to the national war, and the fourth uncle will have a sense of proportion in his heart. The family has a big business, and his own family will always have some small thoughts. But to outsiders
, I can still trust my family!
Ever since he decided to go north, Zhu Yunxi had never had any suspicion about the King of Yan, Zhu Di. The conquest of Goryeo was the national interest of the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Di was such a proud man, he disdained and was unwilling to make any mistakes in such a matter.
Besides, in fact, in Zhu Yunxi's heart, he was also looking forward to fighting side by side with this fourth uncle who was famous throughout the ages.
Zhu Yunxi wanted to tell Zhu Di with practical actions that I am not the kind of childish kid you think. I can do whatever you can do. I can even do better than you.
The distance of ten miles is just a snap. Not far away, smoke is billowing, and thousands of cavalry are coming, covering the sky and the sun, with bright flags and shining armor. First there are two big flags, each with the character "Yan" and the other character "Liao".
The emperor's grandson was here, and the civil and military officials dismounted their horses and bowed in obeisance! Fu Rang, with Zhu Yunxi's personal guards, waved flags and shouted on the opponent's marching route.
In an instant, the sound of horse hooves that shook the world stopped abruptly, and the athletes dismounted one after another and knelt on both sides of the official road.
Later, in the military formation, Zhu Di and Zhu Zhi were in front, leading civil and military officials from Peiping, and slowly stepped forward to kneel down and worship.
My minister Zhu Di (Zhu Zhi) bows to His Highness Taisun. His Highness is a thousand years old!
While everyone was prostrating, Zhu Yunxi, who was dressed in an ordinary war jacket, dismounted with a smile and said, "Fourth uncle, fourteenth uncle, please come and be safe!"
With that said, surrounded by the guards, he walked in front of the officials in Peiping, helped Zhu Di and Zhu Zhi up with his own hands, and said with a smile, they are all family members, why are they so generous!
Then, his eyes looked at their faces for a moment. Zhu Di's face showed no emotion. Zhu Zhi's eyes were bright, and his closeness was clear.
The fourth uncle looked much lighter than last time, and his face was a little haggard. Is there something on his mind? Zhu Yunxi continued to smile and said, you are just too preoccupied and think too much!
Zhu Di's eyes secretly twitched twice on Gujing Bubo's face. This yellow-tongued kid always slaps me a few times every time we meet! He cursed secretly in his heart, and with a respectful expression on his face, he said, "Go back to Your Majesty Taisun, Peking."
It is an important town in Liaodong, and I am in charge of the capital of Liaodong. I am very cautious and do not dare to slack off at all. As I said that, I suddenly smiled. If I had nothing to do every day, I would not think so much, but I cannot think about military and national affairs!
A nail that was neither soft nor hard was stabbed secretly. Zhu Yunxi pretended not to understand, and said with a smile, "My fourth uncle just can't let it go. Military and national affairs can be decided by the court freely. If you think too much, it will only increase your troubles!"
Damn you!
Zhu Di cursed loudly in his heart. What this kid said was really damaging. He was carrying a gun and a stick, but he also had a hint of warning.
He was originally a person with a deep mind and a calm expression, but for some reason, every time he saw Zhu Yunxi, he couldn't suppress the fire in his heart.
The same is true for Zhu Yunxi. Although he doesn't want to be suspicious of Zhu Di in his heart, he always speaks unforgivingly.
Uncle Fourteen, are you here too? Zhu Yunxi said to Zhu Zhi again.
Returning to Your Highness, I am planning the days for the army to march, thinking that you should arrive in Peiping within a few days. So I directly asked my subordinates to go to Liaoyang to gather first, and I will come to Peking to pick you up! Zhu Zhi said with a smile.
Is it okay to stay in Guangningwei? Guangningwei is located in Liaodong, a bitter cold land, far inferior to the inland of the Central Plains. Zhu Yunxi smiled and said, before Gu Lin left the capital, Concubine Han specially asked someone to see Gu so that he could look good.
Look at your body to see if you have gained weight or lost weight. She also asked someone to bring you some furs from the palace. She said that you have been afraid of the cold since you were a child! She was also afraid that you would not be able to eat well, so she asked Gu to bring you some furs made by herself.
Pickled meats and other items!
As a prince, he grew up in the south and ruled Liaodong. Not to mention this era, even if the southerners of later generations suddenly live in the north, they will not adapt. The royal city in Guangningwei is worse than the ordinary county government in the Central Plains. It is purely a military fortress.
.There were not many common people, let alone merchants. King Zhu Zhi of Liao looked at the heroic young man, but he didn't know how much he had suffered secretly.
Hearing Zhu Yunxi mention his biological mother, and then thinking of his mother's face, Zhu Zhi's smile suddenly turned into sadness. He held back his tears and choked up, "It's true that my mother and concubine don't have any furs in Liaodong, and they are still worth letting you take!" He said, patiently
I couldn't help it, and finally shed tears, and revealed my true feelings, "In fact, I often think of my mother and concubine. I have some worthless things, and I will ask Your Highness to help me take them back to my mother and concubine!"
Zhu Yunxi patted the other party's arm and said with a smile, I won't take it for you, I have to take it for you! He said loudly, after the battle of Korea is over, I will take you back to Beijing together. Don't worry about the laws of the court, I will make the decision for you.
Stay with your mother and concubine in the capital for a while longer!
Really? The mood of the young king of Liao suddenly turned from tears to laughter. Although they, the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty, had a respected status and had heavy troops, they were not allowed to leave their fiefdoms easily without any purpose, and they were stared at by the courtiers.
I can still lie to you! Although Zhu Yunxi is a junior, at this moment, he is like an elder coaxing a child.
Unexpectedly, the King of Liao was only happy for a moment, and solemnly shook his head and said, No! I cannot leave the Guangning Guard without permission. I am the prince of the Ming Dynasty and the king of the Nine Frontier Fortresses. I have the unshirkable responsibility of guarding the border. Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot be both, how can you abolish the official position for personal gain?
After saying that, he looked at Zhu Yunxi again and said firmly, as the prince of the Ming Dynasty, this is my responsibility.
Zhu Yunxi was speechless and could only pat the other party's shoulder again to encourage him.
Among the old men, Zhu Yunxi was the only one he liked, except for Zhu Di, who was his fourteenth uncle. He liked Zhu Di because of his military exploits, and Zhu Zhi because of his character.
It is very rare for the young King of Sai to be neither arrogant nor arrogant, dedicated to the country and have no other bad habits. On the contrary, the private character behavior of the two uncles of Zhu Yunxi, King Qin and King Jin is really open to question.
At this time, Zhu Yunxi couldn't help but think of Zhu Yunwen who was far away in Huai'an. It's not unfair to call him a fool. In history, he found troubles for all the vassal kings who were loyal to him and loyal to the court. In turn, he made trouble for the vassal kings who were loyal to him.
Zhu Di, who rebelled against the flag, said instead, "Don't let me be known as my uncle."
It's really ridiculous.
Zhu Di, who was standing next to him, also glanced at King Liao approvingly, gave a thumbs up and said, Brother Fourteen, he is a man!
After meeting the two vassal kings, the local officials from Peiping came forward and kowtowed.
I am the Chief Secretary of Beiping, Guo Zi.
Lü Zhen, the envoy to Peking.
The capital commander Zhang Xin.
Upon seeing these three people, Zhu Yunxi's smiling face suddenly became subtle.
Without him, these three people are all famous Yongle favored ministers in history. All three of them have the merit of serving the dragon. Guo Zi has experienced four dynasties and has a high official salary that is rare in the past. Lu Zhen is also a favored minister of Zhu Di.
Insidious and cunning.
Zhang Xin is even more famous. He was originally the commander of the Guangning Guards, and was later promoted to the commander of the capital of Peiping. Originally, Zhu Yunwen trusted him quite a bit in time and space and asked him to secretly monitor Zhu Di. Unexpectedly, he turned around and
Zhu Yunwen was sold.
These three people cannot be kept!
Looking at the three people kneeling, Zhu Yunxi thought to himself, during the war to conquer Goryeo, I can find something for you to take the blame for, and then withdraw and replace it with my own people!
Your Highness Taisun, come into the city! King Zhu Zhi of Liao said from the side, you are also tired from the journey, go into the city and have a good rest.
Zhu Yunxi slowly shook his head, no, I can't enter Beiping City alone!
