[Ming] Wuzong's Chronicle of Rebirth

Chapter 121 The 9th Year of Hongzhi

One of the problems Du Ruo has been facing is that there are no reliable people. Du Yide left some people behind, but these people are only proficient in martial arts, and they are good at fighting to protect themselves. When it comes to loyalty, they are also good. If it comes to economics, they are Qiqiao The six orifices have been cleared——there is no understanding at all.Du Ruo had no choice but to think of an idea. He chose many homeless children in those disaster-stricken places, spent his own money to teach them, brainwashed them vigorously, and trained many people. Now it seems that they are still reliable.In the past few years, Du Ruo has been conscious of cultivating these people, letting them do a lot of things and exercising.

It's just that this matter is not suitable for practice, Du Ruo can't worry about letting them toss. "No, it's Du Ren who are veterans. This trip is very dangerous. I'm more at ease when they come." There are now four groups of people Du Ruo trained. It is the backbone of An Guogong's mansion.There are three groups of people behind Caobian, Chongbian and Mubian.

Seeing that Du Ruo thought well, Du Ruo also nodded and said, "If there is really no other way, we should prepare to call back all those people who sneaked into Tatar. After all, we can't chill their hearts, otherwise we will also have uneasy conscience. "These people are all well-trained spies selected by Zhu Houzhao himself, and many of them are officers with a bright future. It would be really sad if they were lost like this.

"The letter has been released. As long as it is really intercepted by the Tatars, we will start to retreat immediately. I only hope that there will be time. After all, I have been missing for several months." Du Ruo is also very anxious. The whole arrangement in the northwest was disrupted.Now I just hope that this matter can pass safely, otherwise the northwest border will be unstable, and I am afraid that there will be another war.Once there is a war, some things can't be controlled by themselves. At that time, it may not only affect the Northwest, but the overall improvement plan may have to be adjusted.

"It's really impossible, I have to go to the Northwest by myself." Du Ruo still remembers the vast Gobi Desert in Gansu, and the family cemetery where the greatest pain in his life is hidden.Du Yide and Jiang Shi have been sleeping there for more than ten years, and I went to see them once, which is really unfilial. "It just so happens that I haven't been back for several years, and I can deal with the affairs of the family." The so-called one person ascends to heaven, although there are no close members of the Du family, it is still a big family after all.Taking advantage of Du Ruo's reputation, he also did a lot of bad things.

Hearing that Du Ruo said that he was going to the northwest, Zhu Houzhao's heart suddenly rose again. "You're going to the northwest, that's not okay. Have you forgotten what happened in the past?" Du Ruo has been to Lanzhou twice in total. In the 11th year of Hongzhi, Du Ruo returned to his hometown to visit his tomb, but when a small group of Tatar soldiers attacked the city, Du Ruo ran for dozens of miles before returning to Lanzhou, without fear of his life.The two encounters, Zhu Houzhao is afraid when he thinks about it.

No matter how tired Du Ruo was, he was still happy that someone was so worried about him. "Now it's not the same as in previous years. Tatar and Huosi are getting weaker and weaker, and I have grown up. I must be accompanied when I go out. Is it possible to die in such a safe time?" When he said this, Zhu Houzhao Busily covered his mouth, frowned and said, "Don't talk nonsense about such unlucky things."

Taking off Zhu Houzhao's hand and holding it, Du Ruo said with a smile, "Since when have you been chattering like this? Don't worry, I'll just pay attention to myself." Seeing Du Ruo's giggling appearance, Zhu Houzhao scolded, "I'm just I’m just worried about you, as long as you’re safe, I’m willing to do even unreliable things.” In fact, Zhu Houzhao still has some awe for these things in his heart after his rebirth, but it’s not strong, and now he’s just afraid of losing Du Ruo's fear was aroused.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, watch me tear the devil with my hands." As he said, he posed in a horse stance, making a tearing gesture.Zhu Houzhao was worried about him and panicked with joy, so he slapped Du Ruo on the head in a hurry.Seeing that he was finally getting better, Du Ruo touched his head and smiled to himself for a while.

Zhu Youtang also heard about this incident. Du Ruo was about to leave the palace when Zhu Youtang sent Jiang Cong to call him to Weiyang Palace.At least Zhu Youtang recovered his body, and now he doesn't need to be helped to walk. When he saw Du Ruo coming, he happily made a pot of tea and poured Du Ruo a cup. "Is the matter in the northwest really imminent?" Zhu Youtang, the emperor, really didn't care about things, and he didn't understand many things.

Tea is good tea, and the aged Buri tea is very mellow and delicious.Taking a sip, Du Ruo explained: "It's not time to wait. It's just that the things in their hands are too important. If they leak out, many of our plans will come to naught. The Tartars caught it, maybe they were stranded because of abnormal weather or other things." In front of Zhu Youtang, Du Ruo always wanted to put things lightly, and it would be bad for him to worry.

Pour yourself another cup of tea, Zhu Youtang felt relieved, looked at Du Ruo, sighed and asked tentatively: "Xiao Ruo, is there really no room for negotiation on the matter of heirs?" After all, the biggest relationship between them The biggest resistance is the issue of heirs. If there are heirs, there will be thousands of reasons not to have a queen or a concubine.Zhu Youtang still wants to keep Zhu Houzhao, but now his request has been reduced to as simple as wanting a child.

The elders have already retreated to this point, and ordinary people would have agreed to it long ago.But none of them are Du Ruo, none of them have Zhu Houzhao who is the only one in this world, Zhu Houzhao who only belongs to Du Ruo.In love, everyone is blind and full of possessiveness. When thinking that there will be another person in this world who will shed Zhu Houzhao's blood, Du Ruo feels that he can't bear it anymore. "If mother has never had children, will daddy be with another woman?"

The past is like passing water, gone forever.Zhu Youtang has gradually lost his memory of the past, and he still has some memories of the beauties that will never be missing in the Qingning Palace and the piles of drafts for himself.If the weak Zhu Houzhao really didn't support him back then, if the two children really died of smallpox, would he still be a couple with Zhang for the rest of his life like now?Zhu Youtang himself was not sure what the answer would be.

"If you say that the current situation is different, I know you won't accept it. It would be a bit hypocritical to say no, but I don't regret it at all when I look back on the first half of my life." I don't regret tolerating Zhang's petty temper, no I regret waiting patiently for Zhu Houzhao's arrival, and I don't regret that I have withstood the pressure of the Zhou family and the court. The world of two people is still two people, and Zhu Youtang feels very happy. "I think I know your answer, you go back, you are busy too."

After resigning from Zhu Youtang and returning home, Du Ruo saw that Kerim was about to go out, and hurriedly greeted him, "Where are you going with your big bag so late?" Seeing Du Ruo's return, Kerim also came up to meet him. , happily replied: "I met some merchants from the Raksha Kingdom here, and I made an appointment to make a deal and show them my goods." At this moment, Du Ruo knew that it should be those Tatar merchants. Fearing that Kerim would be deceived, he hurriedly asked, "Do you know the details of those Raksha people?"

He rushed to the top of the carriage in no time, and Kerim laughed loudly and said, "I know, Tatars." lighter until dissipated.Du Ruo also admired this man's energy very much, seeing that he was not deceived, he was happy to let him go.

Seeing the Duke back, Du Lin also came up to meet him, and said with a smile: "This young man is also good. I saw several families and wanted to give him his daughter." The several houses he mentioned were naturally the families that Du Ruo served for No, they all regarded Kerim as one of Du Ruo's subordinates.It seems that although the young man is from a different race, he is born very well, he is also knowledgeable in books and etiquette, and holds such a large property in his hand, of course he is a good candidate for a son-in-law.

"Get married? They can also figure it out. Now his status is worthy of being an ordinary official. These people can also figure it out." Kerim now controls most of Hami's transportation lines. The location of the mutual market is also very useful.He also did a lot of things for the court, and he couldn't live without a title until he was in his forties.Regardless of current financial resources or future development prospects, these people in his family are not worthy of him.

"I've already returned to them, so let them stop thinking about it. This young master is a guest, so don't disturb him." Du Lin was still at ease when he was doing things.Du Ruo saw that he had passed on the message, thought for a while and said: "A few days ago, I thought they were too shameful, and now they have started to play tricks on the guests. I think the government should take good care of them. It's gone." He spoke gently, but Du Lin could hear a chill from inside.He didn't dare to speak, and only kept silent to serve Du Ruo. Du Ruo glanced at the boys standing in the aisle, and went in with a snort.

This has always been the law. When Du Ruo's parents just passed away, the Hou Mansion had a small population and things were simple, so everyone could still concentrate on doing things.When Du Ruo was promoted one by one, and the industries under his command became more profitable, some people's faces were revealed.Du Ruo is not an ancient person after all, even if he has a heart full of eyes, he can't guard against everyone.The current Duke's Mansion looks clean on the surface, but it is undercurrents. Du Ruo always thought it would be better to try harder, but he has never been free, so now he has to let them enjoy themselves for a few more days.

This is a small town on the border. It was once deserted due to the invasion of the Tatars. Recently, it has been peaceful for several years. Because it is the only way to pass through the main roads of several trading places, it has suddenly become prosperous in the past few years.Nowadays, people come and go, and there are many inns and hotels.Take a look on the street, there are businessmen with weather-beaten faces, soldiers in strong clothes, and foreigners with flaxen hair, white skin, and blue eyes.

Du Sheng has been trapped here for the third day, and only this morning he overheard the place from someone outside the window. Touching the fine silk clothes he was wearing, he already guessed that the person who kidnapped him Who is the person.

The author has something to say: a little passing water, it’s not that the pig’s feet are not smart, it’s that he is too stupid, why expose him, blah blah. ~~o(_)o~~

As for the frequent update, can I say that it is because I want to start a new article, ah, I am so sorry.Just kidding, the main reason is that there is nothing to do at home, and updates can be guaranteed.If it weren't for the claw machine that seriously slowed down my typing speed with claws, I actually wanted to come in the middle of the night and cover my face o(*////▽////*)q
