Chapter six hundred and fiftieth chapters former deceased, the emperor's ambition
Xu Xun was not interested in seeing Qian Ning's death, but when he heard Li Yifeng report the situation in the execution ground in front of the emperor, he had no good impression of Shang Fenfen's former top card, so he naturally had to add a sentence lightly. ([] ) After all, he had heard that Qian Ning once confessed that this woman had bought the people in the Ning Palace when she was in Nanchang and threatened her to obey her orders. He would not believe it if he threatened her. However, it was not surprising that Shang Fenfen, a woman who was scheming in the fun, had sex with the people in the Ning Palace when she was in Nanchang Palace.
In the past, relying on Qian Ning's wealth and prosperity, the Ning Prince's Mansion would hook up with her because of Qian Ning's power. But now she has sentenced her to Liuzhan to Liaodong, which is not serious, but she scolded her husband on the execution ground. If such a woman should not die, who should die?
Such a small episode was forgotten by him for a moment. Because, Zhang Zong, who finally successfully returned from suppressing the bandits, said that Xu Yanche and Qi Jiliang were the ones he paid more attention to, let alone Cao Qian and Jiang Bin, the intelligence leader Ma Qiao, plus two outstanding contributors such as Liu Liu and Liu Qi. In the later stage, it was not so much that he was suppressing bandits, but rather that he was training troops. Although the avant-garde of the government army was somewhat damaged, he was even different in spirit than those young soldiers who had elite equipment in the past.
Therefore, when the ministers and courts were discussing the rewards of merits, he attended the meeting with the order, just said lightly: "When the vanguard of the palace army was alive, according to the old system of Xuanmiao or the imperial grandson, the sword-bearing guards prepared for the emperor who was still the Eastern Palace at that time, don't treat them with slightest care."
The little emperor's short-lived personality has been experienced for a long time, and this time it was indeed a real success in the bandit suppression. There was no need to kill the people and make contributions. Zhang Zong said he was the son of noble character. Xu Yanche was the descendant of the ministers, and Qi Jiliang was the son of the princess. The three of them were representative figures in the top circles of the Ming Dynasty. As for others like Cao Qian, Jiang Bin, Ma Qiao, it would be difficult to guarantee that Xu Xun would make a fortune if he had any achievements. So, after discussing for more than half an hour, when the imperial edict was issued in the palace and Zhang Zong said that he was the commander of the Jinyiwei, even the minister who was stubborn had to draw up a promotion plan for military positions.
Even Liu Liu and Liu Qi gained the benefits that made them overjoyed. Not only did their son’s favourite career in the Imperial College, they also received the title of the fourth-rank commander. Although it was not a member of the rank, they valued more whether their son could read the name of a famous person and become a real local clan. In addition, Xu Xun, the backer, was promoted from the original earl to the Duke, so they were too happy, so how could they feel dissatisfied?
On the day of the prisoner offering, a large number of people with large tied feet were escorted barefoot before the Meridian Gate. This time, the bandits in the south of the Jinnan used tricks, sometimes using the sound, sometimes fighting the West, and the inner force that quickly became strong after being eaten by Liu Liu and Liu Qi led people to escape, was finally defeated separately. Even if someone tried every means to escape, except for Yang Hu, who was seriously injured and taken away by Bai Ying, the other important figures were either dead or captured. At this moment, the ones escorted and kneeled under the palace were once a person.
There are also irrelevant minions strung further away by ropes. Among them, one man stared at the Meridian Gate with hatred. No matter how he could use his eyes, he could only see the backs of the black ministers, unable to see the person he wanted to see, nor could he see the emperor who ruled the world. His family was broken and his people were gone, and he was taken away from Jiao Mansion and sent back to Ning Prince's Mansion. He tried every means to escape but fell into the bandit's nest. Xiaobai, who had been called for many years, was almost forgotten his real name.
The fan that finally caused him to suffer humiliation was wiped out. He fell into the hands of the big sword Feng, who had just wanted to swallow his anger and escape for a while, but he didn't expect that it was the secret line that Xu Xun inserted into the bandit's nest. He escaped and planned to destroy Xu Xun's chess piece, but none of the damn Green Forest bandits believed his words. Even if he cruelly cut off the three fingers on his left hand and let them believe it, it was too late, and finally made him a prisoner of war. Now standing in front of this palace city, he took a deep breath and then shouted out loud.
"Xu Xun, you are a bastard who pretends to be a relative of Xun, you must die a bad death!"
Before he could roar, someone from the Jinyiwei who was escorting them was suddenly rushed out and gave him a heavy blow. For a moment, his knees softened and he fell heavily to the ground, feeling a smell of sweetness in his throat, and he couldn't even say a word. He struggled to get up, but someone suddenly slashed two swords on the rope in front of him, dragged him out, and then slapped him heavily on his back. Before the darkness in front of him passed, he vaguely heard a cold word from someone.
"Continue to string these two people in front and behind him and take him back first! Fortunately, the sound is not loud, otherwise you will not be able to eat it if you pursue it!"
This accident caused a stir among the prisoners who had already lost their hopes and did not cause any greater storm. After all, Xu Liang's remembrance of his deceased wife and love his only son is famous in the capital. Even if someone heard the rumors of this little episode, he would not believe it at all. After all, if it was not his biological son, Xu Liang would have stayed there long ago. How could he still be single until now, and he plans to continue to be so single for the rest of his life?
The day after everyone was rewarded and promoted, Xu Xun asked the emperor to hold a banquet at the martial arts court in the West Garden of the Palace. It was a matter of no one from the soldiers to the officers. When he saw the imperial carriage coming from afar, he could only hear the sound of "Long Live" like a tsunami roar, making Zhu Houzhao, who was sitting in the imperial chariot, blushing for a moment. Even so, when the voice stopped, he still whispered to Xu Xun beside him: "If one day, I can face the enemy side by side with them, the four words "The Emperor's Personal Guard" will be truly confirmed! Xu Xun, I still remember the moment when I faced the Ning Wang army on the Nanchang city wall... It is really different from any time."
Seeing the little emperor's eyes showing deep regret, Xu Xun knew that the person Zhu Houzhao was most likely to think of at this moment, and what he thought of was better than not to say what he said, so he naturally remained silent.
When Zhu Houzhao arrived at the high platform in the martial arts field, the strong wind blew the black cloak on his body, and he was silent for a long time. After a long time of silence, he suddenly lifted the cloak on his body and said loudly: "I have no emperor today, I only congratulate you for the meritorious soldiers!"
Although they had entered the palace yesterday and kowtowed with everyone when they were awarded, even though Liu Liu and Liu Qi were good archers and horses at such a long distance, they had to see clearly that Zhu Houzhao, who was sitting on the imperial throne of Fengtian Palace, was still not as strong as possible. Today, they were in the front row and were in the first time to carefully examine the Emperor Zhengde. At this moment, when they heard this simple sentence, they couldn't help feeling hot and shouted long live with the others.
Zhu Houzhao did what he said, and there was no trace of etiquette at all. He directly ordered someone to serve the wine and food. Then he ordered an eunuch to hold the wine jar behind him and pulled Xu Xun over to the table. At first, he still drank one cup by one, but later after Xu Xun persuaded him, he found that the banquet had been placed across the leopard room. If he continued to drink this way, he would be drunk and never finish it, so he just walked. Even so, when he walked from beginning to end, he still walked from less than noon to Shenshi. The drunkenness and excitement made him forget the fatigue on his body, and he actually pulled Xu Xun all the way to the Qingxiang Bridge near Taiye Pool.
"I have thought about it. When I make a crown prince, the court will be peaceful. I must learn from Emperor Taizong to personally conquer Mongolia, so that the Tartars dare not offend the border! The emperor guards the country's gates. I have now understood that the word "Shou" is not to be guarding the capital and not move. You have to go out when it is time to go out! If it weren't for going around Jiangnan and Jiangxi this time, I wouldn't know that this prosperous era has become like this... Emperor Taizong also went through the northern expeditions, and Xuanmiao also personally patrolled the border and defeated the people of Wuliangha. Although Yingmiao Tumu Fort was defeated, he had the courage to stop eating because of Yingmiao's temporary defeat!"
When Xu Xun heard the four words "stop eating because of choking", he immediately said thoughtfully: "But the emperor went to Jiangxi before, and only a few people knew that he had already jumped. If he wanted to fight in person in the future, the ministers would definitely object. Could the emperor have a countermeasure?"
"Of course there is!" Zhu Houzhao immediately raised his chest and laughed, "If I am not an emperor, but a general Zhu Shou, wouldn't this war be justified?" Seeing Xu Xun dumbfounded, he laughed, and he couldn't help but say in anger, "Don't laugh, you can't escape by then. Now everyone knows your reputation. Looking back, I will change your name and give you a deputy general. If you want to hide in the capital, there is no door!"
The king and his minister looked at each other, and finally looked at the Wansui Mountain on Qionghua Island that overlooked the palace city.
When Xu Xun, who was deeply intoxicated, left the palace from Xi'anmen Gate, saw Li Yifeng coming up quickly. He held the Jinyiwei chief who was about to salute with one hand, and then asked with a smile: "Are you waiting for someone?"
"The humble position is waiting for the prince."
"Talking in the car."
After getting in the car and sitting down, Li Yifeng's face changed slightly for a while, and then he said, "Duke has heard rumors outside that when he offered prisoners and victory, someone was talking crazy outside the Meridian Gate, accusing the Duke of pretending to recognize his relatives in the past?"
As soon as these words were said, Xu Xun raised his eyebrows thoughtfully, and then said as if nothing had happened: "I heard that, but since it was your Jinyiwei who took the man down, what commander was found?"
"I was afraid that this man would talk nonsense, so he went to the trial himself, but he confessed..." After hesitating for a moment, Li Yifeng said in a very low voice, "He confessed that he was Xu Dong, the eldest son of the Xu family in Taipingli."
