Jingtai Fengyun: The First Absurd Emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 752 A new city was built in the capital city of Yuan Dynasty. Military reports arrived in Beijing and the war broke out again.

Zhu Qiyu spoke righteously, but he knew in his heart that if he had too many children, it would be difficult to keep a bowl of water flat.

Materially we can try to be fair on the surface, but emotionally we will inevitably be biased.

As the saying goes, if you have a biological mother, you will have a biological father, and if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather.

Zhu Qiyu still likes the children of his five younger women, but the other ten older women are much less emotionally affectionate.

Empress Dowager Wu was very interested in the issue of vassalage today and continued to ask: "I heard that the palace in Kaiping is also under construction?"

Zhu Qiyu nodded: "Kaiping was the capital of the Yuan Dynasty. Although it was captured by the Red Scarf Army and the city and palaces were destroyed by the war, the foundation is still there.

In the past few years, I have been sending the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of War to recruit soldiers and laborers to rebuild the original capital city.

The outer city has been repaired, and half of the original imperial city and inner palace have been restored.

Of course, the inner city was renovated according to the regulations of the Prince's Palace, just like the Yuan Palace that occupied Beijing when Taizong was King of Yan. Let Lao Ba arrange it this way.

Each city wall in Kaiping is more than four miles long. There are three guards of King Ping stationed in the city, plus the three guards of Kaiping, a total of 30,000 elite soldiers, enough to defend the city. "

Empress Dowager Wu asked again: "Is Kaiping very desolate now? It's bitterly cold outside the Great Wall. You have to compensate me well."

Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "Mother, please don't think that Kaiping is desolate just because it was abandoned by your wise and powerful Emperor Xuanmiao.

When Kaiping was still the capital of the Yuan Dynasty, post roads extended in all directions and there was an endless stream of business travelers. When it was most prosperous, there were more than 100,000 people living in the city. It was a famous city that connected Yuan Dadu and Mobei and governed the Mongolian tribes.

The most important thing is that Kaiping City will prosper again in my hands. It became one of the most prosperous cities north of the capital. "

Empress Dowager Wu nodded: "That's fine. Arrange everything for my grandsons. Don't let them suffer outside."

The family talked and laughed and had dinner together at noon. Then Empress Dowager Wu told her, "Son, it's rare for the daughters-in-law to gather together in such a neat manner. You can take them home and get together alone. It would be nice if I have my grandchildren with me here."

Mrs. An He quickly answered: "The ministers are all here and have been waiting at Ganquan Palace for a long time. The wives in Beijing are also here, and they are going to pay homage to Empress He."

Zhu Qiyu asked: "Didn't I tell you earlier that I don't need to greet you? Why are they here again?"

Mrs. Anhe said with a smile: "It must be because our emperor has a high prestige, and all the ministers come to pay their respects, so that they can feel happy."

"Sister, stop making fun of me. There is nothing to look up to. When I hear the word 'look' now, my scalp feels numb. I'm even stressed."

Mrs. Anhe asked: "What is stress?"

Zhu Qiyu waved his hand: "Nothing, nothing. I'm going back to take a nap. Let the boss dispatch the ministers."

After that, Zhu Qiyu ran away in a flash. Empress Dowager Wu shook her head helplessly and told Lin Xiangyu and others: "Then you sisters, let's see who will send those lucky ladies away, and then go back to reunite. There is no need to come to say hello tonight."

Lin Xiangyu led her sisters out of Changle Palace and saw Zhu Qiyu standing in the snow at the entrance of the palace, kicking the snow back and forth.

Walking closer, Lin Xiangyu smiled and said: "My husband and sisters will go back first, while I and Ningxiang will go and send away the married women. Then we will take Ding Guogong's sister on a blind date. You don't have to wait for us."

Zhu Qiyu nodded, Qianxue also smiled and said: "I want to go with Xi'er to give rewards to the people in the house and the steward of the shop outside, so my husband doesn't have to wait for us."

The four little women all ran away, and Zhu Qiyu was already a little reluctant to leave.

Linglong came closer and wanted to speak. Unexpectedly, before she could speak, Zhu Qiyu scolded: "Shut up, you. If you dare to run away, I will whip you when I get home."

"Why can the four of them just run away?"

Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "Because they are evil, I can't control them. You are a good person, you can't run away anymore, you have to stay and serve me."

Linglong laughed: "You deserve to be whipped if you cooperate with a good person? Isn't this bullying an honest person in broad daylight?"

Zhu Qiyu secretly winked at Linglong, meaning you can't leave, leaving me alone with ten grown-up women. How embarrassing, I don't feel comfortable getting along with them.

Linglong understood, took Zhu Qiyu in her arms, and led the other sisters into the Lingyu Palace. I don’t know what these women discussed behind the scenes. As soon as they entered the dormitory, they all wanted to take a bath in the hot spring. Zhu Qiyu wanted to stop them, but he didn't. Instead, he was pulled into the hot spring palace together.

The three women were performing a play. The ladies looked around the palace, and sure enough, new equipment had been added.

Miao Yue pointed to the two jade horses beside the hot spring pool and asked: "What are these? They look like wooden horses for children to play with. They sway and swing back and forth when they sit on them. But these two are larger, and they look like they are for adults. Sitting.

But why do the jade horses have two bumps on their backs? "

Mu Yu also echoed curiously: "That's right, I've never seen it before. It was made recently. How is it used?"

Linglong blushed and said with a smile: "This is a new one made by the craftsmanship bureau under Siyuan Supervisor. It is a torture instrument used by my husband to punish us when we disobey.

As for the usage, if a woman is caught having an affair, there is a punishment called riding a wooden donkey. Have you heard of it?

We ride jade horses in the same way as they ride wooden donkeys, except that the protrusions on the wooden donkeys are too long and can damage people.

Our bulge is according to the husband, and then shortened a little. "

Zhu Qiyu waved his hands vigorously: "You girl, how can you be a good person? Why are you trying to scare your own sisters? Don't listen to her nonsense, it's not what you think."

Miao Yue smiled and said: "It's not what we thought? What about the whip?"

Zhu Qiyu lamented: "What an injustice. I am Dou E, and Dou E is me. I just said it casually, but I didn't really whip it with a whip."

No words for several days.

……

The sixth day of the first lunar month.

Zhu Qiyu finally got up from the couch. Just as he was about to appreciate the paintings of the past few days, Qianxue and Suxi hurriedly walked in.

Qianxue went straight to the point: "Husband, something big happened. The Meng Yuan fire broke out, and both Ala and Tuotaobuhua died."

Zhu Qiyu was stunned when he heard this: "They are all dead? What do you mean they are all dead?"

"Tootho Buhua's younger brother Agabarji, together with Maoli Hai and Bolai, launched a mutiny. Taking advantage of the meeting of the kings, he killed Totuo Buhua and Ala, and all their wives, concubines, and children were killed."

Zhu Qiyu nodded: "Isn't that great? Tuotuo Buhua and Ala are both dead, so all the covenants I made with them will naturally be invalidated.

The meeting of kings they held was called Hulitai in Mongolian.

To elect a khan or decide on a major military action, a khuritai must be held.

For example, when Brother Meng died suddenly in Diaoyu City, all the Mongolian dignitaries who were fighting abroad ran back to join the Khuritai.

The dignitaries elected Ali Buge as the Great Khan of Mongolia, but Kublai Khan refused to accept it. The two sides fought a civil war for five years and Mongolia split.

It's normal for Litai to cause trouble. This is an old tradition, so don't be surprised.

How did they distribute power after this mutiny? "

Qianxue replied: "My husband's Heavenly Khan was overthrown, and your titles of Oara Khan and Tatar Khan were abolished. Agabarji became the 28th Mongolian Khan, and Maoli Boy became the Grand Master. , King of Huai, Bolai became the magistrate and King of Qi.

Agabarji's son Harakuchu was named King of Jin. "

Zhu Qiyu heard this and slapped the table: "How can there be two kings of Qi in the world? This is not a blatant challenge to the authority of my great emperor."
