Domineering Daming

Not long after Hong Chengchou left, in a teahouse not far from Xingyuan, Zhu Zonghan sat there alone, looking at the direction of Xingyuan from a distance, drinking tea silently.

No one knew he was here, how long he had been here, he kept looking in the direction of the shaft, and there was a rare complicated look on his always stiff face.

On the other side, Chen Rujiao, Liu Rushi, and Su Xi also arrived in Jingdezhen. The three of them saw many places, but they were almost absent-minded, so they returned to the inn at the same time, saying they were resting, but they leaned against the window, thinking differently. Looking at the direction of Xingyuan, his eyes are full of complexities.

Naturally, Bi Ziyan was in Jingdezhen to wait for Zhu Xu. After the previous conversation, both the monarch and his ministers got rid of the grievances in their hearts, each was at ease, and they were busy with each other's affairs again.

Bi Ziyan left Jingdezhen, rushed to Nanchang Mansion, and then diverted to Shaanxi and Sichuan.

These two places are currently the two most difficult places in Ming Dynasty, and they are one of the core points of the "New Deal". He has already been to Nanzhili, and the rest is here.

Chapter 1277

At the same time, Sun Chengzong, who was in Beijing, left the capital and rushed straight to Sichuan, and then transferred to Yunnan.

He wants to see Qin Liangyu, inform her of the upcoming arrangements, and make new arrangements for the western theater. At the same time, he wants to appease Cao Wenzhao and ensure that there will be no chaos in all aspects of the army.

Following Zhu Xu's heart-to-heart conversation with the two bigwigs in the military and government of the Ming Dynasty, they knew the outline of the future court situation, so they had to do a lot of things to make arrangements for the upcoming changes in the future to ensure stability.

These are matters of the highest level, and the people below are naturally unable to see clearly, and they are still struggling with the change of Bi Ziyan's resignation and Sun Chuanting's succession.

Zhu Xu slept comfortably on this leg, and didn't wake up until evening, and Zhang Yun beside him didn't know where he had gone.

After Zhu Xu washed up, Zhang Yun brought a few children over.

Zhu Xu watched the children regain their spirits, especially Xiao Shuxian's face turned rosy, and she waved with a smile, "Come, let's have a meal together."

The little girl threw herself into Zhu Xu's arms and said coquettishly, "Father, I have a headache and feel uncomfortable."

Zhu Xu touched the little girl's forehead, it wasn't very hot, and then she smiled and said: "Okay, Father will feed you."

The little girl raised her face and said with a smile, "Okay."

Zhang Yun arranged for Xiao Ciye, and Xiao Cixuan sat down and asked for food to be served.

Zhang Yun looked at Zhu Xu and said: "The concubine has already read the menu. The dishes arranged in the imperial dining room are all special Jiangxi local dishes. Your majesty, try it. If you don't like it, you can change it back."

Except that Zhu Xu can't eat spicy food and doesn't like too much sweetness, he doesn't care about anything else. He nodded, picked up the bowl, looked at the dishes, filled a small bowl for the little girl, and slowly fed it to the little girl.

The little girl's face was full of joy, and she still held herself in Zhu Xu's arms quite reservedly, eating bite by bite, and glanced at her two younger brothers from time to time.

Little Ciye ate food on his own, completely unaware of it.On the contrary, Xiao Cixuan was quite envious, but dared not speak.

Xiao Cixi has already eaten, and now she is sleeping in the side hall.

Xiao Shuxian ate for a while, looked up at Zhu Xu and said, "I'm full."

Zhu Xu put down the bowl, wiped his face, and said, "Then sleep for a while, Father will take you back later."

The little girl smiled like a flower, stood up and said: "No, I can go back by myself. Father, mother, use it slowly, Shuxian will leave."

Zhu Xu was quite surprised by the appearance of the little girl, and turned to look at Zhang Yun.

Zhang Yun waited for Xiao Shuxian to leave, then smiled and said: "It was taught by Princess Yongning."

Zhu Xu was relieved immediately, thinking of Yongning who was suffering in Beijing, smiled and shook his head, and said in a recalling tone: "That girl Yongning was also a weird elf at this age, she made trouble for me all day, and the emperor's sister-in-law also had a lot of headaches, Lesson learned..."

Zhang Yun smiled without saying a word, and brought him some food.Who in the palace doesn't know that the one who loves Princess Yongning the most is not Tai Hou, but His Majesty the Emperor.

Zhu Xu saw it from Zhang Yun's smile, coughed, and picked up a bowl to eat.

Not long after eating, Cao Huachun came in a hurry, handed over a piece of wet paper and said, "Your Majesty, the pigeon sent by the Military Intelligence Department passed the letter."

The secret reports of the Military Intelligence Department are all written in code, the handwriting is quite small, and translation is required.

Zhu Xu took it over and took a look, with a surprised look on his face, and then he laughed amusedly.

The content above is very simple. Dorgon's [-] troops sneaked into Siam. The army was like a broken bamboo. The cavalry used high mobility to directly besiege Bangkok. It is only one step away from the capital of Siam, Ayutthaya!

The current southeast peninsula can be said to be three countries, Annan (Daming), Siam, Myanmar, and Siam includes Laos and Cambodia, which is the largest and most powerful.

Dorgon took advantage of the peace talks between Siam and Daming, deceived Siam with blindfolds, and then took advantage of his unpreparedness, the army went straight to the hinterland of Siam!

I'm afraid this information came too late. According to Dorgon's ability, he would not be surprised even if he broke through Bangkok and besieged the big city now.

Looking at this piece of paper, Zhu Xu shook his head, and said, "A lone army goes deep, without backup, it won't last long. What does the Commander's Mansion say?"

Cao Huachun said: "This secret report came to the emperor and the commander-in-chief at the same time, presumably the capital has not received it yet."

Zhu Xu said "hmm", put down the piece of paper, and said to himself: "Dorgon is not capable of swallowing Siam in one go, he should be clear. This kind of surprise battle is mostly for the later negotiations. Siam Luo annexed Nanzhang in one go, and Cambodia has not had time to digest it, and most of them don't have the energy to deal with Dorgon, and Dorgon may take advantage of it..."

Cao Huachun heard something different from Zhu Xu's words, his heart moved slightly, and he said, "Your Majesty, Dorgon invaded Siam without authorization and disobeyed the imperial decree, should he be punished?"

"Of course it will be punished."

Zhu Xu took a sip of tea and said, "Decree, severely reprimand Dorgon, ask him to come to Jingdezhen to see me, and explain it well. If he doesn't have enough reasons, let him prepare the coffin in advance!"

If this happened to other places in Ming Dynasty, they would have been escorted directly to Beijing long ago. How could there be "reprimand" and go to Beijing by themselves?

Cao Huachun understood, and said: "Observe the order."

Cao Huachun retreated, Xiao Cixuan raised his head to look at Zhu Xu, his small face couldn't hide his excitement and said: "Father, are you going to fight?"

Zhu Xu glanced at the little guy, smiled and said: "Not yet, I won't be able to fight for a while, you should practice martial arts first, and watch the art of war."

As if encouraged by Zhu Xu, the little guy nodded his head excitedly, and said, "Yes, I will not disappoint my father! In the future, I will definitely lead an army to suppress the rebellion for my father!"

The little guy spoke very forcefully, very seriously.

Zhu Xu turned his head to look at Zhang Yun in surprise, these little guys are very promising.

Zhang Yun laughed softly: "Uncle Xinjian teaches Ye'er, and Xuan'er will go too."

The generations of Xinjian Bo are not only prospering in literary style, the first generation of Xinjian Bo Wang Shouren is a man of literature and martial arts, one of the few great talents in the Ming Dynasty, and there is no other talent in the world.

Zhu Xu looked at Xiao Cixuan, and said approvingly: "Very good, after you go back, you should study hard. Uncle Xinjian's house must have a lot of military books hidden in it. You can find a way to learn it for me."

"Yes, my son obeys!" The little guy puffed out his chest and said loudly, and then he couldn't help laughing, hugging the bowl embarrassingly.

Zhu Xu didn't care if it was a little guy, turned to look at Zhang Yun, and said, "Let the children play in the Xingyuan at night, and those rules in the palace can be avoided, and tell the people below not to talk nonsense That's it."

Zhang Yun knew that Zhu Xu himself couldn't stand restraint, so he said, "Okay."

Little Ciye didn't feel anything, but little Cixuan couldn't bear it any longer.

Zhu Xu ate slowly, because Bi Ziyan's matter was settled, he let go of most of his worries, and felt much more relaxed, and said: "Let them play today, tomorrow I will take them to the town to see, I heard The porcelain here is the best in the world, let's buy some good ones and return to the palace."

Naturally, Zhang Yun has nothing to do, and takes good care of the children.
