Father can be an enemy country

Chapter 1245 Fulfilling the Mission
When Zhu Zhen sent Hu Rang and Wu Yin out, he saw Ping An walking in circles in the yard, his beard and eyebrows all turned white.

"You didn't go with them?" Zhu Zhen asked with a smile.

"The two highnesses didn't go to the lake at all. After they came out, they went to the study room to read and sleep. I had no choice but to come back." Ping An said with a smile: "The prince has finished chatting with them. I can be alone with the general." Would you like to chat?”

"We have been together day and night for so many days. Is there anything you can't say earlier?" Zhu Zhen asked.

"Have I not finished my performance yet?" Ping An said.

"What kind of performance?" He confused Zhu Zhen.

"We agreed that if I perform well, the prince will take me to the battlefield." Ping An reminded him hurriedly, and then flattered: "Now that the performance is over, is the prince still satisfied?"

"..." Zhu Zhen looked sympathetically at Ping An, who was ogling him wildly. When he was interrogating a group of people from Prince Qi's Mansion last year to collect the charges against Lao Qi, he learned what happened to Ping An in Prince Qi's Mansion.

For example, Lao Qi took out a brown pill and said that it was a "man's yellow pill" concocted by himself. As long as he took it, the grievances between the two would be wiped out.

Human gallbladder is human excrement. In order to calm the trouble, Ping An was mentally prepared and endured his nausea and ate one... When he got it into his mouth, he found that it was quite delicious. It turned out that it was not philtrum gall at all, but peach cake. class stuff.

Lao Qi laughed and took out another one and said, "You are also my godbrother, how can I really make you eat shit? Come, try the 'Human Yellow' made by me."

Ping An took it with a smile, then put it into his mouth without any precautions and took a big bite. He immediately put on a mask of pain a hundred thousand times...it turned out that this 'Human Yellow' was real.

Seeing his miserable state of vomiting and vomiting, Lao Qi and his lackeys burst out laughing. They even wrote a couplet for him and hung it at the door of his residence:
'The dignified commander of the capital of Shandong will eat the shit I personally pulled! '

During the days when he was under house arrest in Prince Qi's Mansion, Ping An suffered a lot from Lao Qi. It would only be normal if he was not normal after he came out. If he were completely normal, it would be abnormal.

~~
"Are you satisfied or not?" Ping An asked.

"Satisfied." Zhu Zhen nodded hurriedly.

"Then can you take me with you?" Heping Qiji asked: "Your Majesty, you know that I am a powerful general who can lift a cauldron, and my marksmanship is invincible in the army. If you use me as a vanguard, I will be invincible."

"Of course I believe in Brother Ping'an's ability." Zhu Zhen smiled and nodded. This father's youngest adopted son indeed has special skills. But according to the original history, he would have to wait until the future Jingnan battlefield to shine.

On the battlefield of Jingnan, he defeated the army led by King Yan himself, killed countless generals of Zhu Di, and almost captured Zhu Di from his horse several times. The words "Wang is greatly afraid" and "Yan Jun is greatly afraid" appear many times in history books, which is enough to prove his toughness.

But his mind is indeed not very bright. It is said that after Zhu Di became emperor, he asked him:
'During the Battle of Jingnan, you had several opportunities to kill me, but why did you only tear my clothes and not hurt my body? '

At this time, Ping'an was already a prisoner who was defeated and captured. Ordinarily, if he wanted to survive, he should take the opportunity to say something nice, such as, 'Because your majesty has dragon energy, I dare not harm him. '

Either tell the truth, that idiot Jianwen said, don't hurt my uncle. As a minister, I can only obey orders. '

This could make Zhu Di let go of his resentment, but he didn't know what was wrong with him. He insisted on being a hero and said: "I tore your clothes not because I am afraid of you, but because I want to capture you alive." Zhu Di laughed after hearing this. He originally felt that he owed him some favors, but now he didn't feel it at all...

At this time, if he died for his country like Tie Xuan, he would not be a hero, but he endured the humiliation and survived for several years until Zhu Di felt strange and asked Ping Baoer why he was not dead?
Ping An committed suicide in despair. He has turned his eternally famous tragic hero into a joke... It shows that his brain is really a good thing.

~~
Zhu Zhen estimated that Ping'an had remained unknown because he was not big-headed. It was not until the last years of Hongwu that the general group was purged, and there was really no one available for Jianwen, so it was his turn to rise to prominence.

This time Jingnan is probably gone, and Ping An may never have a chance in this life to let the world know what he is capable of.

So Zhu Zhen felt that he owed him a chance to shine, so he agreed: "Okay, I will take you to the battlefield, but you have to wait."

"Ah, why?" Ping An asked.

"Why?" Zhu Zhen said speechlessly: "If you are a Qianhu, even if you are a commander, I can kill you first and then lead you to Peiping. But you are the commander of the capital of Shandong, how do you want me to take you away?"

After a pause, he continued: "Besides, the troops participating in the war have been decided by the general. Now they have been assembled and are only waiting for military rations. This time, the designated troops cannot catch up. But I promise that I will help you win the next wave of participation in the war, how about it? "

Ping An said with a bitter face: "Then we have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse and the Moon?"

"It won't take too long." Zhu Zhen said with certainty: "After Nahachu is eliminated, it's time to point the sword at the Beiyuan Royal Court. And with Nahachu's status and his close relationship with the Beiyuan Royal Court, We may know where the Beiyuan Emperor’s cat is.”

"Really?" Ping An was excited when he heard that. If he could catch Emperor Beiyuan with his own hands, he would become the number one general of the younger generation!
Seeing that he believed it so easily, Zhu Zhen secretly sighed and said: "Anyway, be prepared and wait for the order."

"Hey, hey." Ping An was too busy to respond.

~~
On the twenty-fifth day of the first lunar month, the wind stopped and the snow subsided. The team continued northward and reluctantly left the Shandong border.

After entering Peiping, the accommodation conditions were not as good as in Shandong. However, Zhang Jicai still tried his best to provide all conveniences, so that the team had firewood and shacks to live in, so that they would not have to set up tents.

This is the limit of what a prefect can do. With him working so hard, Zhu Zhen naturally couldn't let him down. Anyway, so many reassurance pills have been given out, so this one is not missing...

Coupled with the favorable weather and rising temperatures, the team did not suffer much and reached the finish line in one go.

On the evening of the twenty-seventh day of the first lunar month, as the last cart of grain was transported from Shuimen to Tongzhou City, the "Operation Ice Sky" that traversed three provinces and traveled four thousand miles back and forth finally came to an end.

Twenty-nine days have passed since Zhu Zhen decided to use ice trucks to transport grain on the 29th of the twelfth lunar month last year.

If we count from the day Xu Da asked Zhu Zhen to transport two million stones of military rations in one month, it would be thirty days, exactly one month.

"Fortunately, the mission has been fulfilled." Zhu Zhen let out a long sigh of relief.
