All the ministers retreated one after another.

Ye Chunqiu was left alone. Zhu Houzhao waved his hand to the eunuchs on both sides and signaled them to retreat. So the hall, which was still lively, was empty at this moment.

Seeing everyone leaving clean, Zhu Houzhao stood up with her hands behind her back, and then walked back and forth in the hall, frowned slightly, and looked a little annoyed on her face.

Ye Chunqiu was still standing there quietly, but his eyes kept moving with Zhu Houzhao.

After a long time, Zhu Houzhao finally spoke first: "I thought I was very confused, but I never thought that you were very confused. You fool missed such a good opportunity out of thin air? Alas... When the late emperor was there, he said that he was really naughty. What I fear most was that I mistakenly formed a bandit. My temperament is very difficult..."

Speaking of this, Zhu Houzhao stopped, thought for a while, and suddenly felt that the words were inappropriate, and said, "That is to say, I am a strange person with a strange mind, and it is difficult to date serious people, so the ones I make are all a group of strange guys."

"Then I won't mention the one named Deng. Okay, let's talk about this matter, Chunqiu, what a good opportunity today, what a good opportunity you can do... "

Zhu Houzhao looked at Ye Chunqiu with a look of regret, and it was a pity for Ye Chunqiu.

Yes, no one would have made Ye Chunqiu's choice.

Ye Chunqiu did not feel sorry for his decision at all. Looking at Zhu Houzhao's unfair face, he showed a faint smile, bowed to Zhu Houzhao, and said gently: "Do your Majesty still remember what your former minister said to Your Majesty?"

"Hmm?" Zhu Houzhao was stunned for a moment.

Under Zhu Houzhao's surprised gaze, Ye Chunqiu said: "Have you forgotten that His Majesty once said that one day, I will win the desert with Nabatumonk?"

When Zhu Houzhao heard this, her body shook and a light flashed through her eyes. He immediately turned his eyes to Ye Chunqiu, who was also bright and bright, and said, "Say it again."

Ye Chunqiu calmed down and showed a solemn look, saying, "I think that the time to solve the desert problem once and for all is ripe. The Ming Dynasty's seashore has temporarily stabilized, but the real trouble is the land of the northern part of the Mobei region. If the Mobei region is not completely solved, even if the Ming Dynasty can accumulate, it will be just a fat meat in the eyes of others. I have received a tip. Since that time, Nabatu Mengkhan returned to the north of the Mobei region, he has now hijacked in the northern part of the Mobei region. Now he has annexed the Mongolian grasslands and become the lord of the Mongolian tribes. In addition to the Duoyan tribes that belong to our Ming Dynasty, these Mongolian tribes have all surrendered to his golden tent. Now he has called himself "Dayan Khan" and enslaved other tribes in the northern part of the Mobei region, at the height of the sky."

"Have you not seen the report from the Jinyiwei? Batumuk is already full of wings. If there is no accident, he will have to invade the south in the past two years. He claims to be the heir of Genghis Khan and the emperor of the Northern Yuan Dynasty. It is only a matter of time before his death. This time, His Majesty gave me a chance. How could I let me go? Now... it should be the time for Your Majesty and I to make the last deployment for this battle."

As he said these words, Ye Chunqiu's eyes looked particularly bright. A trace of cruelty flashed through the elegant young man's eyes, and then said: "What I want is not a finite land or a plan for the descendants of the Ye family, but a nail that is nailed to the north of the desert, making Nabatumonk feel like a thorn in his throat. Your Majesty still remembers the plan to pacify Mobei that Your Majesty and I discussed with you today, but this is just the first step. All of this is completely prepared for Your Majesty's personal expedition."

Zhu Houzhao's eyes were wide open, and in his eyes, he saw the ambition that he had never been able to vent.

Then, Zhu Houzhao seemed to have thought of something, and then said, "It's good to have a personal effort. It seems that he really doesn't count. Your first request is for Deng Jian; I don't count, but this second request is for me. It doesn't count, but I will definitely not let you suffer a loss. You have to make another request. Only in this way can I feel more at ease..."

Zhu Houzhao said it very seriously. He felt that Ye Chunqiu had "played" him again. The first requirement was for Deng Jian, and the second requirement was for fiefdom. But if you think about it carefully, isn't it just to clamp down on Batumonk?

Deep in Zhu Houzhao's heart, this is his ideal. Being able to fight Batumonk was his dream. Is this request made by Ye Chunqiu or is it because of him? The most important thing is that he did not expect that Ye Chunqiu kept his words in his heart, and at this time, he even missed a great opportunity for him.

Ye Chunqiu's two opportunities were for others. Zhu Houzhao was sometimes very serious, so he had to have Ye Chunqiu's selfish desires.

Ye Chunqiu said, "Your Majesty, I naturally have requirements. Maybe let's study the vassal state first."

After changing his annoyance just now, Zhu Houzhao became interested and quickly asked someone to bring a map.

The map was carried over and as soon as it unfolded on the ground, Zhu Houzhao regained the feeling of the two lying on the ground talking on paper.

His eyes quickly began to patrol, but Ye Chunqiu had already reached a location, Qinglong County.

Qinglong County is located north of Shanhaiguan, which means that it no longer belongs to the inner wall. The Great Wall is located on its south side, nearly a hundred miles away. Qinhuangdao is located on its east side, and is also a hundred miles away. A few hundred miles north and west to the north are the rumored north and west of the Mo. Of course, although it is still on the border of the Ming Dynasty and bordered Nuergandusi, like all the borders outside the Ming Dynasty, although counties have been established, in fact, they are more of the Wei category.

In addition to military households, ordinary people were unwilling to go there. Even if there were some people, there were not many. Instead, there were more officers and soldiers. Of course, the officers and soldiers here were actually not a question, because the Ming Dynasty often had a defense-oriented approach to combat the Tatars. Once the Tatars invaded on a large scale, they immediately adopted the policy of strengthening the walls and clearing the fields. Everyone hid in a strong city like Shanhaiguan and Jinzhou to fight against the Tatars. When the Tatars could not bear it, they retreated and returned to the farming farm, occasionally chasing some lonely Tatars to repay their merits.

It can be said that because Qinglong County does not belong to a military fortress, its main function is more like a temporary settlement.
