Tang Bohu Marries Qiuxiang

Chapter 251
On the second day, at dawn, Chahar's army mobilized, and more than [-] troops surrounded the entire Liaodong City. Tang Bohu hurried to the city gate, still smelling of alcohol, "What's the situation?"

"My lord." Jin Yiwei said, "At this hour, Chahar's army mobilized and surrounded Liaodong layer upon layer."

Yang Yiqing also hurried over, "What does Chahar want to do?"

"Report!" A soldier came to report in a hurry, "My lord is not well, Chahar has blocked the grain road behind us."

"This is trying to trap us to death." Yang Yiqing immediately thought of the question, "How much water and food do we have?"

"Water and food are enough for us for several months." Yang Shengman walked up to the city with Zhu Zhishan indifferently and said, "Winter is coming soon, and winter on the grassland is a thousand miles away. Whoever starves to death first will not be happy." And know."

Yang Yiqing and Tang Bohu smiled knowingly, and the plan can start. He has lost since Chahar's siege of Liaodong.

In the capital, today is Zhu Houzhao's enthronement ceremony, and the Forbidden City is extremely busy. Gu Dayong waited on him and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness, Lord Tang and Lord Yang will be able to guard Liaodong."

"En!" Zhu Houzhao nodded in a low voice.

A group of fast horses entered the capital, and the soldiers who reported the news shouted loudly: "Good news, good news! Yang Yiqing and Tang Bohu, the commander-in-chief of the three sides, fought against Liaodong and killed more than [-] enemies!"

"Good news, good news! Great victory in Liaodong!"

"Liaodong wins!"

The sound of the good news has spread to every corner of the capital, how many years has it been!Daming hadn't won such a big victory. Zhu Houzhao laughed three times when he heard the news, and then swaggered to participate in his enthronement ceremony.

The ministers paid homage and kowtowed, Zhu Houzhao's enthronement ceremony was the same as that of the emperors of all dynasties, and Empress Zhang has now become the empress dowager, and she was very proud to see her son sitting on the dragon chair.

The Minister of Rites was reading the posthumous photos of the late emperor and the enthronement prayers of successive emperors.

The enthronement ceremony went on for more than half a day and it still didn't end. Zhu Houzhao couldn't sit still, "There is no end."

The sudden complaint was very embarrassing in the quiet and grand hall. Everyone quietly raised their heads and saw that the source of the voice was from the current new emperor Zhu Houzhao.

The atmosphere fell into embarrassment for a while, the empress dowager glanced at her son reproachfully, and nodded to the Minister of Rites to signal the continuation of the ceremony.

Zhu Houzhao dozed off and listened to the words of the enthronement ceremony with one ear and kept the other out, and did not listen at all. It was just a sentence from the Minister of Rites, which made the drowsy emperor feel refreshed, because the word marriage was mentioned.

"My queen?" Zhu Houzhao interrupted the ceremony again and said, "Why do you choose my queen?"

"Your Majesty!" Minister of the Ministry of Rites bowed and said: "The Xia family looks at Nandu, and his father, Xia Ruying, was born in Shangyuan County, Shuntian Prefecture. During the Yongle period, he moved north to Daxing County, Shuntian Prefecture. Empress Xia's fifth patriarch Xia Yan, great-grandfather Xia Qi, and grandfather Xia Xuan were all posthumously granted the titles of Zhencheng Xuanli Wuchen, Ronglu Doctor, and Zhu Guo."

"Wait!" Zhu Houzhao interrupted him and said, "Can't I choose my own queen?"

"Your Majesty!" The Minister of Rites said again: "Zhen Jing has virtue, and is a good match for His Majesty. The Xia family also has two sisters, among whom are married to the grandson of Shou Ninghou and Xu Guogong, and the Xia family has been married since the Yongle period. From the very beginning, he was a minister of the dragon, and his virtue and prestige are really..."

"Come on, come on!" Zhu Houzhao gave up and said, "You mean I can't decide this matter, right?"

"Your Majesty, forgive me. This was decided by the late Emperor and the Empress Dowager." The Minister of Rites turned bitter.

Zhu Houzhao sat on the dragon chair and stopped talking until the enthronement ceremony was over, then he stood up and said, "I'm the emperor now, right?"

"I will pay my respects to Your Majesty!" The ministers kowtowed to Zhu Houzhao who was wearing a dragon robe.

"You didn't agree before, so now I can make Tang Bohu an official." Zhu Houzhao put on the awkward dragon robe and said, "I want to make Tang Bohu the Duke of the country!"

As soon as the voice fell, the whole court was silent!

"Your Majesty! How can Tang Bohu, He De, be the Duke of Shang!" Ma Wensheng, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, was not happy.

"I'm the emperor now!" Zhu Houzhao said loudly, "Could it be that I can't even make a meritorious official? Tang Bohu led thousands of people to fight in Liaodong and killed Chahar's hundreds of thousands of troops. Who can you?" do it!"

"Although Tang Bohu has made great achievements, he is not as good as the Duke!" Another civil servant said loudly: "Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, there have been several Dukes!"

Zhu Houzhao twitched his eyes, unconvinced, "I'm the emperor, so what I say doesn't work?"

Another civil servant said: "Huangkou boy, how can the Duke of the state be canonized so easily!"

"Bitch!" Zhu Houzhao cursed, took off his shoe and threw it at the head of the civil servant who had just spoken, hitting the target.

The whole court fell into silence again, someone blinked his eyes vigorously, the emperor took off his shoes and hit someone?I must be dreaming, but the thing in front of me is right, it is indeed a shoe.

"Gu Dayong, pick up my shoes!" Zhu Houzhao said, jumping on one foot.

"Fun Lord, Faint Lord!" Someone shouted loudly.

"Listen well, this duke! I've sealed it!" Zhu Houzhao said angrily, afraid of the dragon chair.

"Absolutely not!" Liu Jian stepped forward and said: "The Dukes of all dynasties are the founding heroes of the country, Shangzhu Kingdom! Tang Bohu is young and impetuous, so he must not be the Duke of the country! If you miss the rules, please think twice."

"Little Huangkou, do you think the Duke is a cabbage on the street?" Someone said.

But it was captured by the keen Zhu Houzhao, "Who are you talking about with a yellow mouth! I am the emperor, believe it or not..."

"Come on! Behead me if you have the ability!" The civil official said righteously, "If you are a fool, I will point my nose at you and scold you even though I am ashamed!"

"It's unreasonable!" Zhu Houzhao jumped up and said, "Gu Dayong, bring my sword!"

The empress dowager looked at the new emperor who had just ascended the throne and courtiers scolding each other, clutching her forehead in pain. She didn't know Zhu Houzhao's character, after all, he was her own son, and this son couldn't control her anymore, so she whispered to the maid beside her: " Help me go back, I feel dizzy."

Gu Dayong didn't dare to lift the knife, and stood there in a daze.

"The first emperor! Open your eyes and see." The ministers wailed in the face of the absurd Zhu Houzhao.

Liaodong
In the quiet and tense city of Liaodong, Tang Bohu and Yang Yiqing were analyzing the situation, planning how to break through Chahar's last force. Tian San stood aside and looked at the map and said, "My lord, I suddenly have a bold idea."
