Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty

Chapter 464 Hongmen Feast

Chapter 464 The Grand Feast ([-])

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, long live my emperor!" As soon as Chongzhen took his seat, all the nobles began to sing and salute.

It has been many years since the nobles of the Ming Dynasty gathered in the court hall. Although it felt a bit abrupt, many nobles were still very proud that His Majesty came to entertain them just after the Northern Expedition ended.

This shows that His Majesty still has us in his heart, otherwise why this state banquet only invites relatives and no courtiers?
In the final analysis, it is our nobles who are close to His Majesty!

"Your family is free from courtesy, sit down!" Chongzhen's face was kind, and he even showed a long-lost smile, but this smile seemed a little bit of a thief.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" A group of nobles and nobles, young and old, dressed in fancy clothes and wearing various beam crowns got up and went back to the banquet to sit down.

"On this festive occasion, I have invited you all from the Qing family. First of all, I have been in the throne for 18 years, and I have never had a happy meeting with the Qing family. This is my fault.

Secondly, now that the rebels have been eradicated, the slavery has been destroyed, and the Ming Dynasty is at peace, it is really a blessing for my dynasty, so I call you here to have fun with me. "Chongzhen knew that these people were called out for no reason, and they were naturally very puzzled. Instead of letting them think wildly, it is better to get straight to the point.

"Your Majesty's imperial conquest, it is really a blessing for all the people that Yu Lie of the Great Ancestor expelled the Tartars and exalted the prestige of our Ming Dynasty. The rejuvenation of our Ming Dynasty is in sight!" Wei Guogong Xu Yunjue had the highest status at the scene, and he spoke beautiful words first.

This guy also murmured in his heart, he always felt that something was not right, because it didn't conform to Chongzhen's disposition at all.

A few days ago, when he heard that His Majesty fell ill outside the pass, he even went to the Imperial Hospital to investigate. It was only by intimidation and lure that His Majesty was ill.

Chongzhen has always been a happy and angry emperor, everyone present knows that, but Xu Yunjue is even more puzzled, he said to his majesty, you are dying, and you still come to invite us, do you want us to see you off?
Moreover, he is so amiable and pleasing to the eye, it makes people panic when they look at it, this is too disrespectful.

"Yes old man, now the people of Ming Dynasty don't have to worry about the northern captives anymore. Your Majesty's contribution is no less than that of Emperor Taizu Gao! I should congratulate Your Majesty with this wine! Congratulations to Ming Dynasty!"

Marquis Taining also hurriedly picked up, he could understand that His Majesty came back to entertain them after a big victory, didn't he just hope they would say something nice and flattering?

Do you really think it's been a long time since I missed them?Anyway, Marquis Taining didn't believe it, he thought Chongzhen was weird, it wasn't like him.

Because as early as more than two years ago, all the nobles had offended Chongzhen thoroughly!Why are you so kind today?
Rao was suspicious, but many honored relatives still did not dare to disobey, and raised their wine glasses to congratulate.

"This is all the credit of the soldiers. I always thought that the soldiers of Ming Dynasty were weak. They have always lost battles for more than ten years, and the land has been lost one after another." Chongzhen also stood up from the throne.

"However, when I actually went to the Shanhaiguan Pass and got to the blood-stained battlefield outside the pass, I realized that I was wrong. The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were all well-behaved. It was precisely because of their bravery and fearlessness of death that the Northern Expedition came about. win!

You don't need to respect me, this victory was won by the death of tens of thousands of Ming soldiers. " Chongzhen took the wine glass from the eunuch and took two steps forward.

Wei Guogong Xu Yunjue was thoughtful, Taining Hou Chen Yanzuo felt that Chongzhen's words were serious, soldiers were originally used for fighting, and fighting would definitely kill people.

Uncle Chengyi, who was always talkative, had a solemn expression at this time, and Zhang Guozhang, oh, this guy didn't listen to his son-in-law at all, and was still thinking about how to spend the new money.

How about buying a few more shops?Or buy more fertile land?

"I would like to use this wine to commemorate the thousands of soldiers who died outside the pass!" Chongzhen raised the wine to the sky after finishing speaking, and then sprinkled the fine wine in the cup on the imperial steps of the main hall.

Seeing Chongzhen like this, the nobles in the hall looked left and right, looked at each other in dismay, raised their wine glasses over their heads in a manner to pay respect to the dead soldiers, and then swayed them in the hall.

In an instant, the Huangji Hall was filled with the smell of spirits.

"It is because of the border guards guarding the border day and night, using their flesh and blood to resist foreign enemies, that there is peace in Ming Dynasty today. Is what I said right?" Chongzhen pondered for a moment and asked again.

"Your Majesty's words are very true! The soldiers of Ming Dynasty are all good!" Dingyuan Hou Deng Wenming echoed loudly, and the rest of the nobles also had objections.

"It is because of the dedication of the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty that you can live with the country and enjoy the wealth and honor in the Ming Dynasty. Am I right?" Chongzhen looked down on all the nobles and threw out another sentence that the nobles could not refute.

"Your Majesty's words are so true, I'm so ashamed!" Uncle Peng Cheng Zhang Guangzu agreed, thinking what kind of nonsense His Majesty is talking about, but life is indeed not bad these days, it would be nice to have a good ancestor.

In Daming, ordinary people fought for their fathers, and the top nobles fought for their ancestors.

But, what is His Majesty going to say?

In the past, nobles could see sorrow and joy from Chongzhen's face. Once the Northern Expedition came back, His Majesty seemed to be a different person. He even talked to us about useless things, and the dishes were going to be cold!

He said in his heart that His Majesty really can't go out of the palace all the time, he will be like a runaway horse when he goes out of the palace, after seeing the situation outside, he will no longer be easy to fool around.

No matter what you say in the future, His Majesty will not be able to leave the palace again.

"It's just that you know why the soldiers were always defeated in the past, but in the past two years they seem to be invincible like the God of War again?" Chongzhen said again.

"Your Majesty knows that this is all due to His Majesty's work! Your Majesty's spirit of dragon and horse will lead the expedition personally, and the morale of the soldiers will definitely be doubled. Oh, and the King of Anguo is planning a strategy to win a thousand miles."

Liu Si'en, uncle of Guangning, also came out of the class and said flattering words. Liu Si'en and Zhang Guangzu are relatives of sons and daughters.

In fact, for 300 years, the nobles of the Ming Dynasty intermarried with each other. Zhang was Li's aunt and Li was Sun's cousin.

The reason why Liu Si'en brought Liu Hongjian with him was because the surname Liu was indeed very fierce, killing Chuangni, Tartars, and civil servants without blinking an eye, and indeed brought them a peaceful life.

But the most important thing is that Liu Hongjian has never offended them, and he is also a nobleman himself. The noblemen in the world belong to one family, and many noblemen are even more honorable.

"Liu Aiqing is wrong, I may be able to boost morale for a while, and the king of Anguo County may use his soldiers like a god, but if the court can't even pay the army, the soldiers can't even eat, and if they die in battle, they won't even get compensation.

Will there be soldiers who will defend your peace to the death? " Chongzhen's tone was very peaceful, and there was still no sadness or joy.

When the nobles in the hall heard this, they looked at each other in dismay, and whispered on the tables behind them, wondering what His Majesty wanted to do?
"That's right, I invite all of you who are living with the country to come here today, and there is one more thing, that is, Daming now needs your help to solve the problem of pensions for the soldiers of the Northern Expedition!"

At this point, Chongzhen went around and finally showed his hole card.
