Chapter 250

Shanhaiguan is located in the east and north of the capital. From Xishan Daying, nearly [-] cavalry under the command of Liu Hongjian, crossed Qinghedian and headed east.

On the last day of February, the weather is already warm and cold, the sun is just right, the armor is shining, and the road is winding.

"My lord, there seems to be a situation ahead? From the looks of it, it seems to be... Your Majesty!" Chang Yu, who was already a viscount, came from the front team to report in a suit of armor.

"I'll go and have a look!" Liu Hongjian signaled the troops behind to slow down, while he rode his horse towards Jiande Gate.

Outside the Jiande Gate, it has been so lively for many years. Chongzhen is at the forefront of the line in uniform, and behind him are three brothers, Prince Zhu Cihong, and even Kunxing and Zhaoren.

Most of the courtiers were very dissatisfied with Chongzhen's decision to send troops, but they suffered several losses in a row, but this time they were silent.

In the early morning, Dongchang fanzibao and Chongzhen, who had been paying close attention to Xishan Daying, had no intention of seeing Liu Hongjian off.

But I don't know where the prince Zhu Cihong got the news and asked to send his "teacher" off, so Chongzhen improvised and left the city with a few children and a group of guards.

This should be done according to the past, don't mention the inner city, even the ministers who came out of the imperial city would cry, saying that the outside is not safe, it will damage the emperor's prestige and other nonsense.

Now he has left the inner city first, and none of these courtiers has jumped out. The courtiers and the emperor seem to be caught in an extremely subtle change.

It's like going back to the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and the courtiers didn't dare to point fingers at the emperor anymore, because those who point fingers have gone home to sell sweet potatoes.

If you want to stay in the court, just be obedient and do things well, I can give you the reputation you want.

Chongzhen likes this state very much. It has been 17 years, and he has not had the joy of being an emperor until now.

"Ahem——" After staying in the inner courtyard of the palace for a long time, after going out to enjoy the cold wind for a while, Emperor Chongzhen began to cough again.

"Father, you shouldn't have come out. My son hasn't seen Master Liu for several days. It's just a matter of seeing Master Liu off." Zhu Cihong hurriedly patted Chongzhen on the back with concern.

Chongzhen coughed and waved his hands at Zhu Cihong, but said nothing.

"Long Live Lord, take a sip of the soup and medicine!" Li Yunkui took a small bowl from the imperial physician accompanying him.

Since the winter of last year, Chongzhen has suffered from this coughing problem. He has been drinking soup and medicine to recuperate, but his condition is good and bad, sometimes mild and sometimes severe.

Chongzhen took the medicine bowl and gulped it down. The medicine was very bitter, but Emperor Chongzhen didn't feel it at all. He had experienced more bitter days.

Because of drinking so fast, Chongzhen's beard was stained with a lot of soup.

"Father, wipe your mouth!" The youngest Zhaoren broke free from his sister's hand, took out a small handkerchief from his chest, and handed it to Chongzhen.

"En." Chongzhen was not angry, and smiled as he took the handkerchief handed over by his youngest daughter.

"Father, look, Master Liu is here!" Facing the sun, Zhu Cihong saw a horse galloping towards him from the west, and took a closer look to see if it was An Guohou.

Behind him, [-] cavalrymen meandered like a giant steel dragon.

"Your Majesty, I am dead, I don't know that the Emperor is waiting here..." It would be a lie to say that I am not touched. Although I have worked hard this year, Uncle Zhu has treated me very well.

"This is all on my spur of the moment, and there are no outsiders, so don't be too polite and get up quickly!" Without the restraint of courtiers, Chongzhen is also very at ease.

"Master Liu, it's all my fault. I asked Father for instructions and wanted to see you off by myself, but who knew that my younger sisters would also come, so Father was worried and came along with me!"

Zhu Cihong stepped forward to support Liu Hongjian and said.

"Your Majesty, the weather is changing from warm to cold at present. You are not in good health, so take good care of your body!" Liu Hongjian really felt a little bad.

His elder brother Zhu Youxiao fell into the water at the age of 22, caught a cold, and died.

His father died when he was only one month old at the age of 38.

His grandfather had been the emperor for a long time, but this time he didn't even paddle and hung up the phone.

Uncle Zhu is also 35 years old this year...

His grandfather has been on the phone for 30 years, his father has been paddling for 38 years, and his elder brother just does carpentry and makes furniture every day. What they do is what they like.

When it came to Uncle Chongzhen, he was dumbfounded when he took over the mess left by his father and brother. The courtiers were slaughtered by Lao Wei, and most of the rest were Lao Wei's disciples and grandchildren.

All the hundred orders and eight generals have come out, and the capital and assistants of the current dynasty are all from the old Wei family.

But the uncle is very capable, almost only sleeps for two or three hours a day, and the court meeting has changed from one morning to two courts a day...

Just doing this for 18 years, the body of an average person can bear it...

"No problem! This expedition is too hasty. Has the Ministry of Households allocated all the military supplies brought by the soldiers according to the amount?" Chongzhen asked with concern.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, the soldiers have brought three days' worth of rations! Besides, is your minister like that?" Liu Hongjian smiled.

He has always taken advantage of others. If someone really dares to detain his soldiers at this stall, no matter whether you are a minister or a prince, you will be executed immediately on the spot.

"That's good, Jianlu is brutal, first go to Huang Degong to understand the situation of the war when you leave the pass, don't rush for success." Chongzhen is like educating younger generations. Although he has never been on the battlefield, he still dabbles in the art of war.

"I obey!" Liu Hongjian could only listen honestly.

"An Guohou! You come from outside the customs, don't forget to bring delicious food for Zhaoren!" Zhaoren didn't know what his father was talking about with An Guohou, so she couldn't intervene. She was very angry and directly pulled Liu Hung-chien's clothes corner.

"Zhaoren, don't be rude!" Chongzhen feigned anger.

"Hmph!" Of course Zhaoren knew that his father was not really angry, but just pouted.

"That's for sure. I heard that the roasted whole lamb outside the pass is a masterpiece. When the time comes, the minister will recruit a barbecue expert for His Royal Highness Zhaoren, and he will cook roasted whole lamb for you!"

Liu Hongjian knew that this little guy, Zhaoren, was a real snack!

"Look what this is? Dangdangdang~" Liu Hongjian mysteriously took out a bag of small things from his waist.

"Wow~Weilong Latiao!" Zhaoren's eyes lit up immediately. Although she didn't know much about Chinese characters, she still kept the packaging bag after eating last time, so she asked someone to read these words.

Zhaoren took the spicy strips and hid aside to eat them.

"Your Majesty, the army is waiting over there. The border is critical, and I'm going to fight now!" Liu Hongjian looked at the time.

"Well, let's go!" Chongzhen said with his hands behind his back.

Liu Hongjian cupped his hands and got on his horse.

"Master Liu take care, this... This is from my sister!" Zhu Cihong stepped forward and handed Liu Hongjian a purse in his hand.

Liu Hongjian took it subconsciously, sister?

He looked back and found that outside the Jiande Gate surrounded by guards, Princess Kunxing was standing on the side of the road dressed in white, quietly like a fairy.

Seeing Liu Hongjian looking at her, Kun Xing stared at Liu Hongjian with bright eyes and smiled slightly, then lowered his head shyly.

Er... Liu Hongjian looked at the purse in his hand.

There are two... ducks embroidered on the small green purse? (actually a mandarin duck)

Is this a token of love?Liu Hongjian didn't know what it was useful for, so he grinned at Kunxing and stuffed the purse into his waist.

"Your Majesty, I won't return the oath if I don't break my vow! I'm leaving!"

Without further words, Liu Hongjian patted his horse and walked towards the large army.

"Let's go, go back to the palace!" Chongzhen's family stood in the sun and watched Liu Hongjian leave, and after they finished speaking, they turned around and went to Luanjia.

"Da Ming will win!"

"Da Ming will win!"

Suddenly came the voice of the mountain from behind!
