First Prince of Ming Dynasty

Pan Fu was kneeling in the temporary sacrificial shed, dressed in plain coarse linen, with three braziers burning in front of him, and paper money bought from all over the county was continuously poured into it, as well as paper horses, paper figurines and ingots, etc. luxury.

At this time, the owner of the Zhao Mansion, Pan Fu's sworn brother, Zhao Zhen, stepped forward, offered incense and saluted, and said, My rich brother, I don't care about being sad now, I have to come up with a charter quickly.

Pan Fu exhaled slowly and kowtowed three more times to the spirit card above: Father, you don't have to wait for your son when Huangquan Luyuan is far away. It will cost you your life, and the incense of the Pan family will also be ruined in my hands. My son has no face to see you.

Then he stood up slowly, in fact, he was also at a loss in his heart, he was only a county servant, and when he grew up, he could bully Liushui county magistrate in the place where his family has been running for more than a hundred years.

And it’s not considered bullying. After all, he is a decent official, and he has unlimited possibilities in the court. They are all strong first and then soft. The benefits and filial piety that should be given have never been short, otherwise the Pan family would not be able to pass it on. so many years.

Didn't even look at Li Gao, he gave the woman he liked first, and dared to take it back when he got on the thigh of the prime minister, and now he had to face the prime minister, what could he do, it was nothing more than an ant shaking the tree. Overwhelmed.

The only trick that might be effective, but also because of the existence of my sister, I can't implement it. It can be said that there is a dilemma between life and death...

Zhao Zhen looked at Pan Fu's back with a complex expression, and his eyes flickered fiercely from time to time. He, Zhao Jiaming, was a big grain and cloth household in several counties in Chongde, Liyang, and there were many grain shops, restaurants, and clothing stores.

But the real basis of building a family is actually selling private salt. No matter how many rich merchants and wealthy households there are under the emperor's feet, there are no more than ordinary poor people. Official salt is not affordable for them.

Speaking of which, his family and the Pan family are also family friends, and he naturally has a share in those in Liyang. This matter cannot be done by a single family. There is nothing wrong with getting involved with the Prime Minister's Mansion.

But I didn't expect that a moment of negligence would cause a scholar to expose the matter to the emperor's eyes. Now it is only a matter of Pan's family, but if the investigation continues like this, I'm afraid it will really be a disaster.

It's just that it's easy to kill and silence, so Pan Fu brought a few people with him, not to mention that he was still doing private business, and there were nearly a hundred masters under orders, all of whom were desperate.

But the person who doesn't even dare to silence the Xiangfu, he dares to be a shameless one?

The imperial court exerted force, and tens of thousands of eagles and dogs searched the mountains and seas, and no clues could be escaped or concealed. Under the brutal torture, anyone may betray, it's a hot potato.

……………

Zhu Biao sat in the Huagai Hall and listened to the report from the commander and fellow acquaintance Shang Honghai, and the voices of civil and military officials congratulating were faintly heard from the Fengtian Hall.

Your Highness, the spies stabbed and wounded Enke's left arm, and then they all died under the knife. A letter came from the northern Xinjiang, and Ye Sudieer, who was leading his troops to besiege Kaipingwei, was furious and led his guards back to the Khan Tent. .”

Zhu Biao was a little surprised. He really didn't expect that the spies of the pro-military captain's mansion would actually hurt Ye Sudie'er's precious only son. The momentum of his family gradually weakened, and he could no longer protect his son in his old den.

Assassination of a dead man is an unappealing method, but sometimes the effect is very obvious. Su Dier has already been framed, and his son has been assassinated, so he must express his position.

But all the secret agents lurking in the golden tent are dead. After all, it is the royal court of the grassland Khan. No matter how much they infiltrate, very few can get in smoothly. This assassination will consume all of them. .

That is to say, no matter how much Su Dier cleans up, he can only kill his own people. Those who can serve on duty in the Khan Court Golden Tent must either have outstanding ability or a prominent family background. No matter how you kill, you will lose your vitality. Zhu Biao Willing to see what happens.

They are all loyal and brave men of my Ming Dynasty. Give me a list of spies, and the children of their families will pay a lot of money in pensions. You will keep an eye on them yourself.

promise.

Zhu Piao made a point and stopped thinking about it. It is inevitable to make great sacrifices. As long as the merits are properly rewarded and the heart of a strong man is not chilled, it is not considered a burden.

The grain and grass allocated by the Ministry of Households and the gunpowder newly made by the Ministry of Industry should have arrived in northern Xinjiang.

One hundred thousand shi of grain was delivered the day before yesterday, but Mongolian Qingqi interfered with the grain road and lost thousands of shi. Fortunately, the gunpowder was not damaged and all of it arrived smoothly.

Zhu Biao nodded slightly. He had food, grass and firearms, and the opponent's momentum had already weakened. Presumably, his cousin would not let go of such a good opportunity. There will only be one or two large-scale battles in northern Xinjiang, and then there will be small-scale fights Killing will not affect the overall situation.

The main reason why Zhongshan King Xu Da and his father-in-law Chang Yuchun laid a good foundation for the northern frontier army, and his cousin Li Wenzhong was also savvy Shen Hong, who had an insight into the enemy's situation and guarded Kaipingwei. Willing to work hard again.

It's too late, I don't know if I can survive until winter.

Has the envoy from Japan returned home?

Shang Honghai's mind was full of information about the Liaodong and Koryo grasslands in order to answer His Highness's questions immediately and accurately, but the result was that he couldn't keep up with the prince's unconstrained ideas. Fortunately, he has been serving for a long time, but he is used to it.

Calculating the time, I should have returned to Dongpu yesterday under the escort of the Marquis of Jiangyin dispatched troops and boats. There is no accurate news yet, and I will send someone to contact me as soon as I return.

The envoys from the Southern Dynasty came to the court because of the situation, coupled with their fear of Lanyu Tang Ding, the two of them are now the key commanders of the Southern Dynasty against the Northern Dynasty.

It is precisely because of this that even if they doubt the identities of the two, they have no choice but to drink doves to quench their thirst and continue to entrust them with important tasks to support soldiers, horses, food and grass. After all, those guys from the Northern Dynasty will kill their Taoist family if they come here. everything of.

The people from the Marquis of Jiangyin have had blood feuds with the Japanese pirates all the year round. The envoys from Dongying promised to send back the people who were taken away in the Southern Dynasty in the past few years. Most of them are probably women and children, and they will be taken over by the pro-army Duwei Mansion. If there are no family members If you come to pick it up, take it to the northern state capital for proper placement, and then my palace will issue an order to the local government.

Japanese pirates come out when people in Dongying have more food and less food. They won’t rob men when they rob, and why don’t you need to say more about robbing women. The loss of selflessness is minor. I’m afraid they even have children after so many years. , Not to mention the small ones, even the big ones can't survive.

The people on the southeast coast were harassed by Japanese pirates, while the people in the northern inland states rarely saw Japanese pirates. If they were settled properly, they could still survive. After all, it was the people of Ming Dynasty, and it was not their fault that they were taken captive.

Your Highness is benevolent and loves the people, and will definitely arrange them properly in the end. It's just...if the child they bring back is a girl, it's fine. If it's a boy...it's really despicable to have the blood of Japanese slaves...

Zhu Biao pursed his lips. Shang Honghai was also born in a coastal fishing village, and his ancestors had blood feuds with Japanese pirates. It is not surprising to have such an idea. Seeing that the wolf cub is not killed quickly, we still hope that he will grow up and become a vegetarian. If the hospital fails, it's better to raise a pup if you have that spare time.

Since that's the case, those who don't want to give up their children can be resettled in Fengyang, and someone will take over.

promise.

Fengyang is the hometown of an emperor, and the water is as deep as the sea. Even if he now holds more than half of the power in the captain's mansion of the pro-army, he would not dare to explore it. If he accidentally touched the taboo of the emperor or the prince, he would not know .

Go down.

Shang Honghai bowed and retreated carefully, Zhu Biao sat for a while, Liu Jin came in and reported: Master, Guiyihou has arrived at the Hall of Martial Arts and is waiting.

Zhu Biao got up and walked towards the Hall of Martial Heroes. Liu Jin bowed to get out of the way, and then waited for his highness to pass before following in small steps, followed by the rest of the court ladies and eunuchs.

How do you see him?

Liu Jin quickened his pace slightly: Hou Hei of Guiyi has lost some weight, but he has an outstanding demeanor and looks more energetic than before.

Zhu Biao smiled, it seems that Ming Sheng's heart has settled down, which is a good thing, and he is also a smart person, a smart person will not do things that are thankless, this person is available.
