Empress Dowager Zhang doesn't understand politics, but she also knows that the appearance of Old Concubine Liu will naturally have a lot more influence than her, and it will definitely give Zhu Xu a big boost, so she quickly agreed with a smile: "Well, good, Xin Wangfei I wanted to enter the palace just now, but I was too busy to come and you didn’t see me here, so I just happened to meet you together.”

Old Concubine Liu liked Princess Zhou very much, and said with a smile: "Okay, then let your father contact the prince Xungui in Beijing, don't say anything, just catch up and drink tea."

Empress Dowager Zhang understood, and after Concubine Liu finished speaking, she said: "Let Ping Wang know and call all the kings to discuss matters. It doesn't matter how big or small it is, government affairs are important..."

Empress Dowager Zhang understood what Concubine Liu meant, and thought about it: "Then, should I let King Xin or Fu Shangshu do the same?"

Concubine Liu glanced at her with a smile, and said meaningfully, "We don't get involved in anything else."

Empress Dowager Zhang had a little understanding in her heart, she hugged Xiao Yongning and stood up with a smile, "Okay, I'll let someone else do it. When someone comes, come and invite the concubine."

Concubine Liu waved her hand and said, "Go, go."

Following the great victory in Liaodong, people in the capital are turbulent, and thoughts are uncertain, accompanied by all kinds of rumors and rumors.

At this time, Queen Mother Zhang's decree spread from the palace. King Zong Zhengping of the Clan Mansion, father of the Queen Mother, and Duke Zhang Guoji recruited people one after another. .

In Ningyuan City.

Sun Chengzong, Xiong Tingbi, Liu Hua, Zhao Liaojiao, Cao Wenzhao, Wu Xiang, Man Gui, Jin Guoqi, Yang Lin, Zu Dashou, Zuo Fu, Zhu Mei and others gathered together, and tables were filled with wine and dishes.

Zhu Xu sat on the main seat and looked at the gathered generals. These are all generals of the Ming Dynasty, who defied life and death and defended the city with all their might.

Zhu Xu looked at them and stood up holding the wine glass.

When Sun Chengzong and others saw it, they immediately stood up.

Zhu Xu pressed his hand and said: "You all sit down and listen to me to say a few words."

The emperor stood and his courtiers sat, how could there be such a rule, Cao Wenzhao was the first to sit down with a smile, waved to the others and said, "Sit down if the emperor asks you to sit down, everyone sit down."

Sun Chengzong glanced at Zhu Xu and sat down after a little hesitation.

As soon as he sat down, Xiong Tingbi, Zhao Ratejiao and others also sat down, looking at Zhu Xu curiously.

Holding the wine glass, Zhu Xu felt endless emotions in his heart. He didn't know what to say for a while, so he took a deep breath and said loudly: "You are all heroes of my Ming Dynasty. In this northern wilderness, throw your head and sprinkle your blood. The public doesn’t know, the ministers of various places don’t know, and almost none in the pass, but I know! Since the ancestors of the gods, there have been many failures in Liaodong, but I don’t think it’s all the responsibility of the generals! As the emperor of Ming Dynasty, entrusted by the people, It is right to protect the peace of the world! And you are the greatest heroes! In addition to high-ranking officials and generous salary, I also promise that no commander will be moved lightly! Without a certificate, you will not be impeached! Unless you are collaborating with the enemy, treason, conspiracy or other major crimes, you will not be sentenced to death. Sentence!"

Most of the people here are from the army, and they are well aware of the dangers of the imperial court. When they heard Zhu Xu's loud promise, they all felt overwhelmed and couldn't help themselves!

Zhu Xu thought of a lot of history, and his chest became more and more depressed. He let out a long breath, held his wine glass in both hands and said, "Today, I am on behalf of Daming, thank you all! I will also represent future Daming, thank you all!"

After finishing speaking, he bowed his head.

Who has ever seen such an emperor, keeping a vulgar general alive?

Over the past 200 years of the Ming Dynasty, there has never been such an emperor's words!

Looking through the twelve histories, which emperor bowed to his courtiers!

Sun Chengzong's face turned red, and his hand holding the wine glass was shaking.

Cao Wenzhao looked at Zhu Xu, his eyes were red.

Zhao Ratejiao's chest heaved and he gasped for breath.

Zu Dashou and the others had difficulty restraining themselves, their chests heaved violently.

Suddenly, a group of people came out, knelt down on their knees, and shouted.

"Long live my emperor!"

Chapter 339

The next day, Sun Chengzong came to Zhu Xu's side room.

Cao Huachun stood by the door and said with a smile: "Your Excellency is early, the Emperor is still awake."

Sun Chengzong also smiled, Zhu Xu drank a little too much yesterday, it seemed to be the first time he was drunk, he raised his hand to Cao Huachun, and said: "The emperor is awake, please let me know."

Cao Huachun nodded with a smile.

There are too many things to do in Liaodong, especially when it comes to the reform of the military system. Sun Chengzong can't make the decision on this point.

It was not until the afternoon that Zhu Xu woke up from his dizziness.

Li Jieyu held a bowl of medicine and said softly to Zhu Xu, "Your Majesty, drink some sober medicine."

Zhu Xu waved his hands, rubbed his temples and said, "I won't drink when I wake up, I'll take a bath first."

After soaking comfortably in a hot bath, Zhu Xu woke up completely, and came to the lobby refreshed.

When Cao Wenzhao heard the news, he rushed back from the outside and said in a hurry: "Your Majesty, Lin Danhan has lost. I heard that most of his troops have been lost."

Zhu Xu was not surprised, smiled and shook his head and said, "Well, it's not surprising."

In the blink of an eye, Sun Chengzong, Zhao Lijiao and others also appeared in the lobby, looking at Zhu Xu with almost fiery eyes.

Zhao Lijiao was relatively calm, and said in a nutshell: "Your Majesty, after this battle, neither the Jiannu nor the Tatar ministries will be able to harass my Ming Dynasty again in a short time."

Zhu Xu also heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, and smiled slightly, noncommittal.

Who knows, the worst disaster has just begun.

However, the power of this battle has not yet been revealed. It won't be long before the entire north will be shocked by it, and it will indeed stabilize the border for a while.

Sun Chengzong said: "Your Majesty, these are some suggestions for Liaodong, please read them."

Zhu Xu took it, turned it over and looked at it slowly.

Cao Wenzhao, Man Gui and the others were not worried, they did not belong to the Liaodong Clan now, but Zhao led the teaching, Wu Xiang and the others became nervous.

Zhu Xu looked at it, and mentioned the rewards for this battle, as well as the reform of the military system in Liaodong to imitate the reforms in the customs, new towns in Liaodong, reclaiming wasteland, etc.

Zhao led the teaching to add the rank of governor of the right, Zu Dashou, Zhu Mei, Zuo Fu and others added the rank of general to cover one son, each with a certain amount of silver...

Zhu Xu looked at it for a while, and looked up to see that the people below were quite nervous, so he smiled and said: "Well, Mr. Sun Ge's suggestions are very good, and I have no objection to the reward, but the military reform, I have to think about it again. Send a letter to the Ministry of War and ask the General Staff to discuss it."

Liaodong is different from Guannei, and reforms must be prudent, and there must be no situation where the hills cannot be controlled by the court or Zhu Xu.

Sun Chengzong thought about it, and felt that this should be the case. Then he discussed how to deal with the prisoners, when they would return to Beijing, who should be brought back, and how to arrange Liaodong in the future.

three days later.

Zhu Xu took Cao Wenzhao's Huben army across Shanhaiguan Pass and returned to Beijing with great fanfare.

The news of the emperor's personal conquest, and the return of a great victory, swept the capital again like a storm.

Countless people opened their mouths, stunned and unbelievable.But thinking about the "disappearance" of the emperor in the recent period, it suddenly dawned on him!
