Jingtai Fengyun: The First Absurd Emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 822 The reinforcements of the Khanate are ready to retreat and the situation is about to be broken. The Emperor is excited.

Wang Cheng replied: "We haven't seen the Emperor for a long time and would like to say hello in person."

Qianxue nodded: "Okay, although your emperor is happy in Lingyu Palace, he often talks about you. Stay at noon, and we will prepare delicious food for you. You guys will wait for a while, and we will get the memorial and the Military News, let’s go back to Lingyu Palace together.”

Wang Cheng quickly replied: "The slaves will help the empress hold the memorial."

"Okay, let's go to Feng Pavilion together."

Although Qianxue and Su Xi are both cold and cold in front of outsiders, they are both very understanding of human nature. For the four of them, Wang Cheng and Shu Liang, they have always been very generous, lest they think that the emperor and the ladies are partial.

Even if you really have a preference in your heart, you must never show it.

Entering Feng Pavilion, all the people from Zhongshushe quickly saluted and greeted the Holy Spirit.

Qianxue smiled and said: "Sir Da'an, are there any important military reports today?"

Qiao Feng replied: "Yes, it's all sorted and here it is."

A large number of memorials and military reports had already been stacked on the table. Wang Cheng and Shu Liang took the initiative to pick up the memorials and military reports.

Qianxue asked Qiao Feng: "What's wrong with you? You look very tired. Are you too busy with military and political affairs recently? Your health is your capital. Why don't you go back and rest for two days."

Qiao Feng still wanted to persist, but Qianxue forcefully asked him to go home.

After taking the memorial, Qianxue led everyone to the east gate of Lingyu Palace. Wang Lin, who was on duty at the palace gate today, was quite surprised to see the empress returning with a small group of people.

Qianxue said with a smile: "I'm going to invite them to dinner today, and the commander will come soon. We have some fine wine made by Shi Niangniang. You can try it at noon."

Wang Lin heard this and quickly thanked him. Being able to eat in Lingyu Palace is a very honorable thing.

Entering the Lingyu Palace, Qianxue ordered Wang Cheng, Shu Liang, and Huang Qi to rest in the Dongpo Snow Hall, while her sisters returned to the Hehuan Palace.

Zhu Qiyu was leaning on the couch, leaning on the backrest, and was being fed by Lin Xiangyu and Ningxiang one by one.

Qianxue went straight to the point and reported: "Wang Cheng, Shu Liang, Zhang Yong, and Wang Qin came together to greet their husbands in person. The slave family has placed them in Dongpo Xuetang and cooked for them at noon. .”

Zhu Qiyu nodded: "I haven't seen them for a long time. Okay, let's eat. I'll have a few drinks with them after making some hard dishes at noon. I have to comfort and appease the little brothers who followed me out of the dormitory." good."

Qianxue replied: "First, let me report the most important military information to my husband. Shandong has prepared 30,000 Japanese soldiers and 20,000 civilians; Zhejiang Guards Station has 20,000 soldiers and 20,000 civilians, and they have arrived in Xi'an.

Reinforcements from several other provinces have also set off for Xi'an. "

"Well, that's good. We have Shandong and Zhejiang prepared in advance, so they can move so fast. Reinforcements from other provinces can arrive in Xi'an within a month."

"Also, according to our internal secret reports in the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty, Chagatai and other Khanate reinforcements have intentionally abandoned the Yuan army and retreated to Hami for the winter."

Zhu Qiyu asked curiously: "Why is this? Withdrawing half the battle, they are not afraid that after I destroy Dayuan, I will retaliate against them one by one?"

Qianxue smiled and said: "It's not profitable. Winter is coming soon. If we don't withdraw, we won't be able to leave this year. Chagatai is five or six thousand miles away from Beijing, with a large desert in between. They went to the Ming Dynasty to visit After looking around, I figured it out. In fact, Ming Dynasty did not have the ability to expedition to Chagatai.

Even if a large army is sent over and the troops are deployed on an expedition, they may not be able to win, let alone destroy the country.

Therefore, after more than half a year of tug-of-war, we have been passively defensive. These generals and dignitaries of the Western Mongolian Khanate no longer had the initial fear and apprehension of the Ming Dynasty. "

Zhu Qiyu was a little confused and couldn't help but praise: "What a wonderful and interesting mental state. I didn't expect that my passive defense also took away the reinforcements from the Western Khanate.

This would be fun. Once they withdraw and let An Guogong, Cao Guogong, and Su Wang lead the elite Shaanxi-Gansu border troops to block Houhetao, and attack Agabarji from east to west with He Yi and Xu Yongning, it will really be a peaceful period. Fight. "

"Who says it's not the case? This continuous heavy rain has messed up everything. If it hadn't been for this heavy rain, they would have stormed Dongsheng City." Zhu Qiyu became inspired by this, and after being passively beaten for more than half a year, he finally saw a breakthrough. hope.

Next, as long as there is a big victory on several fronts, the momentum will rise.

"I'm in a good mood today. I want to cook in person and show you my skills."

A few people packed up the ingredients and drinks, chatted and laughed and came to Dongpo Snow Hall.

Wang Cheng and others finally met their prince, and were so moved that they almost shed tears.

Zhu Qiyu secretly sighed in his heart that the feelings of these four people were as rich as those of the civil servants.

After the greetings, Zhu Qiyu said with a smile: "You have all worked hard these days. You all have a good rest today. My wife and I will cook for you."

Wang Cheng quickly replied: "Your Majesty has broken this slave, how can you let Your Majesty and your Majesty serve your slave in turn?"

Lin Xiangyu corrected: "I'm not a slave, I'm a minister. You are really not used to calling yourself a minister, so you can just call yourself 'I'. We don't have so many rules in our own home, so it's just you and me."

Everyone was helpless when they heard this, and secretly teased in their hearts: It's okay to say it, you ladies have so many rules. We are all slaves, and if we are not allowed to be your vassal, that will be a lot of trouble.

Eating and drinking is the second priority, you still have to do things first.

Shu Liang handed over the list: "Your Majesty, this is the list of generals in Liaodong who colluded with the Meng Yuan and Jurchens. What do you think should be done with it?"

Zhu Qiyu took the list, looked at it carefully, and frowned again: "Oh, why are there so many people, and the official rank is still so high."

Shu Liang added: "This is just what has been discovered. There must be a large number of people hiding deeper."

"Okay, arrest them all and send them to prison."

"Your Majesty, Menda, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, has many connections with Liaodong generals. Menda ordered his close associates to reveal many confidential information."

When Zhu Qiyu heard this, he was silent.

Menda is still useful and I don’t want to deal with him for the time being. But how to explain it to Wang Cheng and Shu Liang.

At this time, Lin Xiangyu tugged on Zhu Qiyu's sleeve: "Husband, please accompany the slave to collect eggs. Let Linglong, Xue'er and Xi'er go into the kitchen to prepare the ingredients."

Someone came to the rescue, and Zhu Qiyu nodded immediately.

A large fence was built on the north side of the mountain, and a large group of chickens and ducks were kept inside.

There are many small nests inside for chickens and ducks to lay eggs. When it came time to eat eggs and duck eggs, Lin Xiangyu and the others searched around, playing a bit of hide-and-seek style.

Ningxiang smiled and said: "Dad, please wait for me. I will go to my house too."

Wang Cheng, Shu Liang and others sighed secretly: You really say one thing and do another, why don't you call me my concubine?

Before she could think about it, Lin Xiangyu ordered: "If you guys can't stay idle, go pick persimmons."

When Wang Cheng and Shu Liang heard this, they almost became anxious. How come there is everything in this Lingyu Palace, including chickens, ducks and geese, grapes, persimmons, jujube trees, and mulberries. Is this to be an emperor, or to return to the countryside?
