The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

"Son of Sapphire, Lan Taiping? Why would he want to go?"

In the Kunning Palace, Zhu Ying was a little surprised when she heard the words of the Ministry of War Shangshu Ruyu.

According to the allocation standard given by Huang Guan, 5 people will be divided into three teams, and three commanders are needed.

Xu Huizu who has just sent off has already set off, and the expeditionary army will start here soon.

When deciding on the number of commanders of the expeditionary force, Ru Yuan ran over and said that Lan Taiping had also signed up.

This is the eldest son of Sapphire.

"Call Lan Taiping over, and I'll ask him what he thinks." Zhu Ying ordered directly.

Ru Yuan felt that the grandson picked up the hot potato, and felt much relieved, so she trotted to call for someone.

In any case, Lan Yu, the Duke of Liang, had a very cruel reputation in the capital, especially after beating up Zhan Hui, Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

Now that Sapphire has gone to Chenla and hasn't returned yet, if his eldest son is put into the expeditionary force without his consent, so what if he gets angry when he returns.

That's someone that even His Majesty dares to directly insult.

In fact, there are not many people who know that Lan Yu is afraid of the grandson, and they don't know that Lan Yu has completely surrendered to the grandson.

It's just the name of the person, the shadow of the tree, the deterrence remains the same.

Zhu Ying wasn't worried about Lan Yu coming back to make trouble, but felt a little strange.

As Lan Yu's eldest son, he would definitely be able to inherit the title of Duke of Liang in the future, which means that wealth and wealth are at his fingertips, so why should he join the expeditionary army.

After a ten-year expedition, whether he can come back is still a question.

Not long after, Lan Taiping was brought into Kunning Palace by Guo Zhong.

She doesn't look very similar to Lan Yu, maybe she looks more like a mother. Just looking at her face, she looks like a scholar, but she has a strong body and should have practiced martial arts since she was a child.

"Lan Taiping pays homage to His Highness the Grandson." Lan Taiping was a little nervous.

Although he is not a few years younger than the grandson, he is the grandson that even his father is afraid of.

Zhu Ying asked directly: "I heard that you participated in the expeditionary force, how do you think about it. Do you know that this trip will take ten years, and you may not even be able to come back in ten years."

"Besides, the journey is far away and accidents happen frequently, and you may lose your life."

"Why leave such a huge family business alone and do this risky thing instead."

When Lan Taiping heard this, he had already prepared a draft in his heart, and said: "Reporting to Your Highness, I have always wanted to escape since I was a child, and I like to travel."

"Going on an expedition to find the weeping tree, there must be invisible scenery along the way."

"I don't want to be a son of my father's generation. Although the capital is prosperous, it's not the place I want to stay. Your Highness, please make it happen."

After finishing speaking, Lan Taiping bowed deeply.

Zhu Ying understood now.

Lan Taiping is adventurous by nature.

Such situations are also understandable.

The Lan family was originally a wealthy family. With Lan's becoming the crown princess and Lan Yu becoming the Duke of the state, it became even richer.

As the eldest son of Lan Yu, the future Duke of Liang, Lan Taiping must have been strictly disciplined by Lan Yu since his birth.

Some people were born as cattle and horses, and some were born in Rome.

Obviously, Lan Taiping never lacked almost anything since he was a child.

What is difficult for others to pursue is readily available to him.

Especially after Lan Yu became the leader of the Huaixi military general Xungui Group, she became even more powerful.

Rich life is pursued by ordinary people, but he feels a little tired and boring, so he naturally has the idea of ​​seeking excitement.

For Lan Taiping, the ten-year expedition can not only find a new world, but also complete the mission of the grandson, and get promoted after returning.

After all, he is a commanding envoy, protected by soldiers, as long as he does not commit suicide, the survival rate is still very high.

"How is your physical strength? This is a long journey." Zhu Ying asked.

Lan Taiping replied: "Please rest assured, Your Highness, I am also a first-class graduate of the Capital Military Academy."

But Zhu Ying forgot that he had sent these second generations to the Beijing Military Academy to practice, and they were not allowed to graduate if they failed to meet the standards.

Graduating with the first grade means that he is already second to none in terms of comprehensive ability, and no matter which military academy it is, physical training is the most important thing. If you can get the first grade, your physical fitness will naturally pass the test.

In fact, this is normal, and even most of the second generations can almost get the first grade.

When the country was founded in the early Ming Dynasty, the family style was basically very strict. Besides, most of the fathers practiced martial arts, and the second generation also practiced martial arts.

Poor in literature, rich in martial arts.

Tonics, medicated baths, etc., will naturally not be missing.

So it is not surprising.

"Okay, since you have made up your own mind, it's up to you."

"But you still write a letter to your father and explain what you think."

Zhu Ying ordered.

Lan Taiping bowed to answer.

Wang Tianlu was a little excited, and he was about to embark on an expedition tomorrow.

And tomorrow, His Royal Highness Taisun called all the generals of more than a hundred households to meet.

This is especially exciting for Wang Tianlu.

He was very grateful for his choice, otherwise he would not have been able to get in touch with His Highness the Grandson so closely.

Although His Royal Highness Taisun often came to the academy in the past, he just watched from afar.

Thinking of seeing His Highness the Grandson tomorrow, Wang Tianlu was so excited that he couldn't sleep.

After leaving the Capital Military Academy, Wang Tianlu did not go home, because his home was not near the capital, so naturally there was not enough time to go back and forth.

Even if he has a hundred households now, it is impossible to say that he can afford a house here in the capital.

Two thousand guan, it is difficult to buy a toilet in the inner city of the capital.

Fortunately, His Royal Highness Taisun has arrangements for those who have been selected, and lives near Zhengyang Square next to Chengtianmen, which is the closest to the palace.

This is the best and most expensive inn in the capital.

And it is not open to the outside world, only by invitation can you enter.

This invitation, of course, only the government is qualified.

Wang Tianlu walked by the window and looked at the still lively crowd outside Zhengyang Square.

"The night in the capital is really noisy, they didn't lie to me."

It was already late at night, although the scene outside was a bit tempting, and there was an urge to go out to reflect, but remembering that he would meet his grandson tomorrow, Wang Tianlu firmly closed the window and lay down on the bed to sleep.

Soon, he fell into a deep sleep.

The corners of Wang Tianlu's mouth curled up slightly in his sleep, obviously he was having a sweet dream.

The next day.

When Wang Tianlu woke up, it was still dark outside.

He was used to this a long time ago. When he was in the military academy, he had to get up and run with heavy loads before dawn. It had been almost a year, and he didn't need anyone to shout.

"Sure enough, it's a big restaurant. This toothbrush is really easy to use. It's much more comfortable than the academy's."

Wang Tianlu didn't have the habit of brushing his teeth before, but after he entered the military academy, he was taught that everyone must brush his teeth. This is the rule of the academy.

After almost a year, Wang Tianlu has already gotten used to it.

This was in the past, but only the landlord can enjoy it.

Rinse your mouth, wash your face, brush your teeth.

After tidying up the room, Wang Tianlu came to the closet.

When the cleaning staff comes later, they will definitely be surprised.

Not to mention the cleanliness everywhere, the bedding is also neatly folded, almost like a block of tofu.

In fact, the quilts in restaurants are not folded, but spread out.

The closet was opened, and inside was a square wooden box.

The wooden box is carved with floating clouds and hollowed out. Inside the hollowed out is a layer of light gold as the base, which looks extremely luxurious.

Wang Tianlu took out the wooden box carefully, but his hands were shaking a little at this time, which was a manifestation of being too excited.

Piously put the wooden box on the desk, turn the lock on the front of the wooden box, and then slowly open the box.

What caught my eye was a set of costumes from hundreds of households.

Different from the generosity of civil officials, Baihu's military uniforms also need to be individually customized and tailored.

The overall fit will be more slim and fit, and it will look more capable.

It is said that this is the style that Taisun directed the new design.

Black gauze hat, lining, clothes, layered shoes, and a small wooden sign in front of the belt.

After getting dressed, Wang Tianlu stood in front of the bronze mirror, feeling very satisfied.

It was still dark outside at the moment.

When Wang Tianlu went downstairs, there were already about [-] people in the lobby, and people came down one after another.

"Wang Tianlu, return to the team!"

"Follow the order!"

A man wearing Qianhu's costume shouted.

Wang Tianlu immediately cupped his fists and bowed.

Then enter the queue.

Although there were quite a few people, it was very quiet, no one spoke and communicated, and everyone stood up straight, just like those in the military academy.

Wang Tianlu looked at it from the corner of his eye.

At the front is the commander's costume, who looks about the same age as himself.

The first row is Qianhu, with eight people.

Seven people stood up straight like themselves, and one person was holding the roster and kept calling out the name of the person who came down.

Wang Tianlu knew him, and he took the hundred-household wooden box from him yesterday.

I only met once, and didn't say a word, except that I knew the surname Li, I didn't know anything.

Hearing Li Qianhu's constant yelling, Wang Tianlu admired him, he had a really good memory.

Not long after, there were six to seventy people in the lobby one after another.

After calling the last person's name, Wang Tianlu saw Li Qianhu go to the front.

Then the voice came.

"My lord, 64 people from one hundred households have arrived."

"Wait."

"Follow the order."

At this point, the entire lobby fell silent.

No one knew what they were waiting for, but no one spoke, as if there were more than 70 sculptures in the lobby.

The boy at the counter in the lobby looked at the battle in front of him, and he was too scared to breathe.

After a long time, footsteps came from ahead, and Wang Tianlu vaguely saw a few people in eunuch costumes walking over.

Then came the sound of conversation from the front.

"Meet Eunuch Guo."

"Young Master Lan, you are welcome, everyone is here."

"It's all there."

"Okay, let's enter the palace with our family."

Seeing the commander in front, Wang Tianlu turned around and shouted: "Listen to the order, follow me into the palace."

Wang Tianlu followed and replied loudly: "No!"

Zhengyang Square was still bustling with activity, and only now was the dawn light on the horizon.

After leaving the lobby, Wang Tianlu saw that there were two teams of palace guards opening the way, and the common people naturally did not dare to surround them, so they could only watch from a distance.

They were divided into four rows in total, and walked forward with the palace guards.

The neat strides look pleasing to the eye, but these are the basic drills of the military academy.

The same is true for the armored guards in front of them. The sound of their footsteps gathers together, as if they were all alone if they didn't listen carefully.

People passing by stopped and watched this exciting scene.

The voice was too noisy to be heard clearly, but Wang Tianlu could imagine the envious expressions on their faces.

After passing the Waiwulong Bridge, it is Chengtian Gate.

The Chengtian Gate is open, and behind the gate are various administrative offices affiliated to the imperial court.

When Wang Tianlu walked by, out of the corner of his eye, he could still see many officials on the left and right walking with documents in their hands.

Behind the Chengtian Gate is the Duan Gate, which is also open.

Behind Duanmen, there are six important yamen.

The noon gate is closed.

Wang Tianlu waited for a while before opening it.

Fengtianmen is even stricter.

Even if the father-in-law in the palace led the team, the guards at Fengtianmen still took over the roster and carefully checked everyone's identity.

Whenever there is the slightest ambiguity, cross-examination will be conducted directly.

After the confirmation is correct, the door is opened and released.

After passing the Fengtian Gate, it suddenly became clear.

There are many palaces around, magnificent and magnificent, and the square is guarded by imperial guards on all sides.

On the steps ahead, there is the Golden Luang Hall where civil and military officials discuss their affairs.

"The whole army obeys the order and stops!"

"promise!"

"Lord Lan, just wait here to be summoned."

"Thank you, Eunuch Guo."

The team stopped in Fengtian Square so quietly.

Everyone waited quietly.

I don't know how long it took before, on the steps ahead, in front of the main hall, there was a shout.

"Grandfather's decree, pass the expeditionary army to the Fengtian Palace to meet!"

Wang Tianlu was a little excited, he didn't expect that one day, he would be able to come to this golden palace.

"The whole army obeys the order and moves forward!"

"promise!"

This time, everyone pumped up their spirits and let out the loudest shouts.

I want the grandson who is in the hall at the moment to hear their voices.

Go all the way, straight up the steps.

Everyone's expressions became solemn and solemn.

At this moment, Wang Tianlu's mind was completely blank.

After entering the main hall, there was no military order in front of them when they stopped, but the team was still in order.

"The commander of the expeditionary force, Lan Taiping, brought eight people from one thousand households, and 64 people from one hundred households, to meet His Royal Highness Taisun!"

Wang Tianlu immediately knelt down on one knee, bowed his head and clasped his fists in a bow: "Meet Your Highness the Grandson."

A familiar voice rang out.

"Exemption."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

"Raise your head and let me see the aura of the expeditionary army."

"promise!"

It was only then that Wang Tianlu dared to follow the crowd to look forward to His Highness the Grandson on the Golden Luan Hall.

Big red robe, black Usha Wing Shan crown.

Around the waist is a belt made of jade.

Mysterious, solemn, majestic.

Taisun's eyes were like torches, just looking at each other made Wang Tianlu feel the fear in his heart.

He looked at His Highness Taisun, who just got up from the dragon chair, and then walked down from the Golden Luan Hall step by step.

Zhu Ying looked at the young faces one by one, feeling quite satisfied in her heart.

Ninety percent of these thousands and hundreds of households are students who have graduated from the Daming Military Academy. Among them, there are about a dozen students who have not yet completed their studies this year, and the hundred households will be given early graduation and enlisted in the expeditionary army.

The dean of the Daming Jingshi Military Academy is the old man, and he himself is the vice-president.

In a sense, these are his students, and they are also direct descendants.

Oh, the solemn sense of ceremony.

Zhu Ying can even feel from these students who are similar to her own age that they are adding to the madness in her heart at this moment.
