I'm really not the carpenter emperor

"The emperor of the Ming Dynasty must retaliate. He is not a good person. It has been said in the imperial edict that all Han people will be sent back to the pass."

"With so much less now, do you think he won't take advantage of this excuse to attack the left wing?"

"It's better to express your loyalty to Lin Danhan quickly, this is the only turning point, and only the powerful Chahar tribe has the strength to compete with the Ming Dynasty!"

At this time, Yirden and Garza turned their heads to look upwards, that is, the left-behind minister Kangkaer.

Kancal opened his eyes and said:

"It's better to prepare with both hands. Send people to take the surrender form and go to Chahanhot and Piantouguan respectively to see what Lin Danbatur and the emperor of the Ming Dynasty mean."

"That's the end of the matter, let's resign ourselves to fate..."

After hearing this, Zhuo Ketu felt relieved, and was even more shocked by his decisiveness and bravery in massacring all 700 Han people.

Seeing his villainous face, Garza almost made a move again, but because Chahar and Ming Dynasty didn't know what they meant, and they were planning for the tribe, they couldn't bear it.

With the development of the matter to the present point, everyone was speechless and bowed their heads in silence. They had no choice but to walk together as a group.

The fate of the hundreds of Mongolian tribes, large and small, on the left will all be determined by the reply in a few days.

……

A day later, head off.

Piantouguan is the closest pass from the left wing to the border of Daming. The guard general Ma Chengen was born in one of the most prestigious generals in Datong, Ma's generals.

Ma Cheng'en was the second son of Ma Gui's brother Ma Jin, a famous general in the Wanli period. He was young but brave.

At any time, the pass city of Piantouguan is always densely packed with soldiers of the Ming army guarding the frontier.

As soon as a slight wisp of smoke appeared on the horizon, Mr. Qian, who was observing with a binoculars from the watchtower, spotted it and quickly reported it to the Guerrilla General's Mansion.

"Report-"

Ma Chengen was reading the military book in the mansion, and he was still wearing a full set of armor. He frowned when he heard the voice, put down the military book and asked:

"Why are you so flustered? Could it be that the captives have invaded the border again?"

Thinking of the last time he invaded the border, Ma Chengen paused.

At that time, all kinds of news said that Lin Danhan was going to enter the country from Xiguan, and even Zhang Wanbang, the general of Datong, personally garrisoned the three guards of Pinglu, Weiyuan, and Yunchuan. Wait for the big kill.

Unexpectedly, it was just a cover-up by Lin Danhan. The Mongols finally entered through the weakly defended Dongguan and once reached the town.

If the Mongols come to knock on the pass again this time, I must not let go of this opportunity to become famous all over the world!

Thinking of this, Ma Chengen leaned forward slightly.

Jia Ding half-kneeled on the ground and said bluntly:

"Back to the general, only one person and one horse came before the pass, as if to convey some news!"

Hearing this, Mr. Qian said: "General, there should be news from the left wing of the Western Captives. This matter is related to national policy. You should go and see for yourself!"

Ma Chengen made a decisive decision, nodded and got up, and ordered:

"Assembler Ding Dengcheng, I'd like to see what the losers from Xilu Zuoyi are playing with Lao Tzu here!"

Not long after, Ma Chengen boarded the pass, looked at the Sunite cavalry in front of him, and couldn't see the slightest expression on his face, and asked:

"That Xilu, why did you come to my gate!"

Hearing this, the Sunite man who was on the horse was stunned for a moment, then got off his horse, presented a performance with both hands, and said loudly: "General Ma and my left wing are old acquaintances, and today we came for a truce!"

"This is the joint surrender form of the eight lords of my left-wing 360, please forward it to the emperor of Ming Dynasty for imperial inspection!"

Hearing this, Ma Chengen and Mr. Qian looked at each other and laughed.

"Okay, these Western captives really cherish their lives. If they really submit to our court, it will save some casualties!" At this point, he gave his servant a look, turned his head and looked down, and said:

"Put the surrender form in the basket, you can go back, and I will say hello to the left-behind minister Kangkaer for the general!"

The Sunite cavalryman who came to deliver the letter felt relieved. He felt that Ma Chengen's attitude was not bad, and he must have received the order of Emperor Tianqi.

If he really succeeded in surrendering, the left-behind minister must be very happy.

He respectfully put Jiang Biao in the loose basket at the top of the city, then got on his horse, and clasped his fist at Ma Chengen at the top of the city, turned around and galloped away.

Looking at the backs of the Sunit cavalry, Mr. Qian was still a little worried.

"General, are they really surrendering?"

Ma Chengen had dealt with the Left Wing Mongolia for many years, and he knew the situation of the Left Wing like the palm of his hand. He snorted coldly, but he didn't think it was a false surrender.

"Probably not, the situation of these captives is much more difficult than ours."

"Choose a fast horse, and let the one with the best riding skills among my family members send it to the capital as soon as possible!"

Chapter 5 and Seven: The Royal Banquet

"I have seen His Majesty!"

The delicate female voice was crisp and loud. In the Palace of Compassion and Ning, a royal dinner was going on, and the pure concubine Duan bowed in front of Zhu Youxiao.

Zhu Youxiao still felt sorry for the imperial concubine.

In terms of appearance and talent, although Duan's family is not as good as Queen Zhang Yan, she is also like a fairy descending from the world among ordinary people. She was selected out of the three thousand beautiful women back then.

After entering the palace, I have never favored her once, and have always told her to stay alone in the vacant room. For so long, no matter whether it is the manor house or the factory guard, I have never found any complaints from her.

It's okay if you don't see her on weekdays, but when I saw her, seeing her in her prime, Zhu Youxiao only felt a burst of heartache, how can I feel at ease.

"Well, get up." Zhu Youxiao helped her up, led her to sit next to Concubine Yu Tong Jing'er, and said, "I have neglected you for so long."

"Since Your Majesty has said so...the concubine should ask His Majesty for some rewards!"

Following this sentence, the atmosphere in the Compassionate Ning Palace suddenly became lively.

Zhu Youxiao was also calm, and gently stroked her shoulders behind him, and made a joke for the first time, and said calmly and calmly:

"Oh, did I say that I would give a reward?"

Duan's black eyes rolled around twice, his small mouth opened, and he said plausibly: "Your Majesty just said that you have neglected your concubines all these years!"

"No joke, Your Majesty forgot—!"

Seeing Duan's pouting face, Zhu Youxiao couldn't hold back his anger, and couldn't keep his face straight, so he burst out laughing.

"Yep!"

"I said before, you are not joking, what do you want."

Duan thought for a while, then lowered his head and said.

"Concubine, I also want to have a dragon heir for Your Majesty..."

Zhu Youxiao was taken aback.

"this one?"

Duan raised her head slightly, looked behind her in a ghostly manner, and met Zhu Youxiao's gaze, she hurriedly shrank back, and then nodded slightly.

Zhang Yan and Concubine Liu sat aside and looked at each other, feeling happy in their hearts.

Concubine Liu felt it was time to interject, and said aside:

"Your Majesty, Concubine Chun has been with me all this time, there is hard work without merit."

Zhu Youxiao looked at Concubine Liu respectfully, and naturally understood in her heart that she was afraid that she would embarrass Concubine Chun if she disagreed, and would not be able to step down in public.

In this case, even the palace people will secretly look down on her as an imperial concubine.

In fact, there is no need to worry about this. Although Zhu Youxiao has no relationship with the imperial concubine, he is willing to see the beauty cry.

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said respectfully:

"What the concubine said is that the pure concubine has been in the palace for many years, and she has the qualifications to give birth to my Ming emperor's heir. In my opinion, she should indeed be rewarded."

"Decree, canonize Yingyangwei Duan of Nanjing as a pure noble concubine, and reward [-] bolts of silk and satin as a tribute from a good country, and let her go to the imperial department to choose whatever she wants!"

"As for the emperor's heir..." Zhu Youxiao said this with a serious tone, suddenly smiled narrowly, changed the subject, and said:

"I'm going to Xianfu Palace tonight."

So far, everyone is happy.

The three concubines who were canonized in the first year of Tianqi, the only pure concubine who was not favored and neglected all the time, now got everything she deserved in Zhu Youxiao's spare time.

Although it was four years late, it still brought tears to her eyes and joy.

Naturally, Concubine Yu, Tong Jing'er, and Concubine Wang, all gathered around the pure "noble concubine" Duan to keep warm, play and joke.

In the court of Ming Dynasty under Zhu Youxiao's dynasty, there were not as many intrigues and schemes as in the Qing court, and they were all very good sisters in private.

At this time, eight graceful dancers dressed up enchantingly and charmingly, let go of their singing voices, and entered the Palace of Compassion and Ning to indulge in singing and dancing, adding to the fun of this royal dinner.

The seven dancers danced to the rhythm, and the most enchanting dancer in the middle frequently made difficult moves, swaying left and right, which was very seductive.

This kind of singing and dancing, I am afraid that only the royal family can enjoy it.

The palace people around knew that this kind of relaxing moment was hard to come by. They were afraid they would never see each other again after they went out. They all watched intently, unwilling to let go of every detail. Even Concubine Liu looked at it with a smile on her face.

With the speed of the musician's beat and the pitch of the singing, the movements of the dancers also began to vary. They have undergone multiple trainings, so they cooperate very tacitly.

In the end, the dancer in the middle leaned over and kept rolling on the ground, and the other seven dancers also rushed up and lifted the dancer like a flower blooming.

At this point, the music stopped abruptly, and the performance ended.

Concubine Liu watched carefully, Zhang Yan was also applauding, Concubine Chun, Concubine Liang and Concubine Yu were all whispering, but it was Zhu Youxiao who had endless aftertaste.

That night, Zhu Youxiao and his "family" relaxed for a while. When the dinner was nearing the end, there was a rush of footsteps outside the palace.

Concubine Liu had no emotion on her face, she just left everything to the emperor to make his own decision. Zhang Yan looked at Zhu Youxiao with a full face of support.

Concubine Yu, Concubine Liang and Concubine Chun, on the other hand, looked unhappy, but they didn't say anything. They had long been accustomed to this kind of disappointment and frustration.

After all, the emperor has a lot to do every day, and has to deal with thousands of things in the world every day.

From the royal family to the ordinary people, every detail has to go through the hands of the emperor, so if you dare to disturb the dinner, something big must have happened.

The wooden door creaked, and Wei Zhongxian walked in with a cool breeze.

As soon as he entered, everyone's faces darkened.

It's not that he doesn't like him, the most important thing is that Wei Zhongxian came to report the matter himself, and nothing good will happen to him.

If the situation is not serious enough, Wei Zhongxian will not come by himself.

"Master, what a disaster..."

"Piantouguan came to report that it was the Ujumqin tribe on the left wing of the Western Captives who killed three people from 710, including more than 80 children, all abducted from Datong!"

As soon as the words fell, the entire Compassion Ning Palace was shocked.

Concubine Liu's face was gloomy, Zhang Yan was full of disbelief and at a loss, Concubine Liang, Concubine Chun, and Concubine Yu were all shocked.

More than 700 lives, more than 80 children!

They have been living in the deep palace, they have nothing to worry about, and they have long forgotten what the lives of ordinary people are like at this time.

But even so, they could hear how serious the matter was this time.

This is more than 700 lives. Who on earth would kill those unarmed, even newborn children!

No one made noise, and no one dared to say more, because this is the Compassionate Ning Palace, the residence of the Empress Dowager of the Ming Dynasty.

Here is the core of rights!

The Compassionate Ning Palace lost all laughter in an instant, and the silence was so eerie.

Everyone turned their eyes to Emperor Tianqi who suddenly fell silent. Only the emperor knew the cause and effect of all this.

Zhu Youxiao didn't say a word for a long time, and kept looking at the surrender form Wei Zhongxian handed over.

After reading it, he was still burning with anger.

For a long time, Zhu Youxiao raised his head and stared at Wei Zhongxian, his voice piercingly cold.

"Declaration, if the left-wing tribes can kill the entire Ujumqin family, and send Zhuo Ketu's head and the bones of the deceased people to the capital, I can let the past go!"

After finishing speaking, Zhu Youxiao slammed the table hard and said:

"Ujumqin, I want it to disappear from the world!"
