Chapter 1613: Victory
When he heard it was Mr. Sun... Zhu immediately moved.
She was anxiously waiting for the news day and night, but now that the news has come, she is a little timid.
I am afraid that bad news will come, even if the general tiger girl is as strong as Zhu, she doesn't know how to deal with it.
"Take it... and take it... no, you read it, you read it."
The maid knew the old lady’s intentions and looked solemnly, unveiled the news, and recited: “Old lady Junjian: Let Sun Xu Pengju……”
Hearing this, Zhu had already trembled and subconsciously took the teacup and lowered his head to drink.
Who had ever thought that the tea in this tea cup had long been empty.
Therefore... I only swallowed the moist tea residue.
But Zhu didn't realize it at all.
"Sun Xu Pengju was ordered to surrender to Luzon, and he died for nine lives. He allowed Luzon Franji to gather troops, and Ningbo Navy took advantage of the situation to fight to the decisive battle. Now... Luzon was decided in one drum, killing thousands of thieves and capturing more than ten thousand thieves. Now Luzon has become a treasure in the Ming Dynasty. The whole world celebrates together, making Sun an indelible contribution..."
Make meritorious service?
Zhu's heart was in a mess...
She was born after Zhu Neng, and married into the Xu family of Wei. One of these two families was founding heroes and the other was Jingnan. With great achievements, she was granted the title of Duke. Therefore, although she was a woman, she firmly believed that a man should follow his ancestors and follow his achievements as a dragon.
But...now... Zhu's heart is in chaos.
What's the use of making a great contribution?
What she wanted was her grandson's peace and safety, so she said, "Peng Ju him..."
"The old lady... there is something behind it. The superior also said that Young Master Sun personally killed the Governor of Luzon and killed the thief leader. This was another great achievement. Since then... the navy has already met him. Except for the injury, he was not seriously injured. The news has reached the Ministry of War... The Minister of War, Ma Shangshu, who happened to be the editor, had some connection with the Xu family. Therefore, while entering the palace to report the good news,... he immediately came to Nanjing to write a book and whip it up, so that the old lady can rest assured."
call……
This is...already alive...
Zhu's eyes that had been dim all the time suddenly became a little brighter
It’s good to be alive, it’s good to be alive.
Then... her eyes were filled with tears, and suddenly, as if nothing was important.
"Pengju is indeed like his ancestors, without any humiliation." Zhu wiped his tears and felt deeply relieved.
She stood up and said, "There are many rumors outside now that the Xu family is planning to be ill. Now that Xu Pengju has made such contributions to the country, who dares to break his mouth? I wonder what is going on in the court."
"There is another thing..." The maid said again: "Then the disciple said that something strange happened in Nanjing... Everyone said that His coming to Nanjing was a private visit, and he had come long ago in the name of the imperial envoy. Do you remember the incident when the imperial envoy went to Xiaoling a few days ago?"
"Your Majesty is in Nanjing?" Zhu looked surprised. Then, she felt relieved and suddenly laughed: "Okay, okay, okay."
"Old lady...this...this...Your coming to Nanjing, I don't understand..."
Zhu looked at the maid and said seriously: "Don't you understand? If the Xu family really had a bad plan, how could Your Majesty's daughter come to Nanjing? The emperor is the lord of the 95th century. If he was injured, he would shake the foundation of the country. At this critical moment, he would never come. But if it was Your Majesty here... What does this mean? It means that Your Majesty still trusts our Duke's Mansion. It was because of his great trust that he came here for a private visit... If there was any doubt, it would not be the emperor, but the factory guard!"
Zhu took a deep breath, and the prophet grandson was fine, and he thought of His Majesty's private visit... The so-called crisis of the Xu family turned out to be just a false alarm.
Zhu was naturally happy, his face improved, and he said seriously: "Your Majesty is here, there is no reason why the Duke of Wei is not going to welcome the emperor. Let Xu Xinzhuang... No, take the imperial edicts for me and go to see the emperor in person. Although I am a woman, I have also been awarded a first-class edict, so it is not impossible to see people. The most important thing is... I want to let outsiders see that our Xu family is still the Xu family, so we should not have any other speculations."
The maid dared not be negligent, so she hurriedly went to prepare.
Zhu took a shower and changed his clothes, wore a first-class imperial edict suit, and had a silver crown on his head, and then got on the bus.
Soon, he arrived at the Gongyuan.
At this time, outside the Gongyuan, he had been surrounded by guards. When Zhu arrived here, it was convenient for the three visits in front of the Gongyuan. Someone hurriedly entered the inside and reported.
Emperor Hongzhi sat upright in the tribute courtyard, looking at the gentry, but was not in a hurry to speak. Hearing that the wife of the Duke of Wei's mansion came to see him, he was stunned.
He glanced at Fang Jifan, and Fang Jifan quickly understood and said, "Son Master, go and greet him?"
Emperor Hongzhi nodded.
Fang Jifan got up and went outside the tribute courtyard. When he saw Zhu kneeling in front of the door, his white hair was covered with silver crown, and his spirit was quite healthy.
Fang Jifan sighed that it was really hard to make up for this old lady. The old lady should have been lying on the ground and striking money. Unexpectedly, she did not fall down, but kneeled down straightly. It was not easy.
Fang Jifan stepped forward and said, "I asked my elder wife to get up. My younger generation Fang Jifan, whose father's name is Jinglong..."
How could Zhu not know that Fang Jifan? She did not get up and just looked up and said, "Is it the descendant of Fang Zhengying whom my father carried back in Tumu Fort?"
Fang Jifan said awkwardly: "I wonder which high school the old lady came from?"
Zhu said: "The Duke of Chengguo Mansion."
Fang Jifan was solemnly respected: "Disrespect, disrespect..."
But... he was furious in his heart. The Duke of Wei also said this, the Duke of Cheng also said this, and the Duke of Britain inside also said this. Could it be that the Duke of the Ming Dynasty did not communicate with each other or unify their thoughts?
Fang Jifan was relieved about this. After all, he was a broad-minded person and only had the people and the country in his heart. He would never focus on this small matter that was very meticulous.
Fang Jifan coughed and said, "Please get up, old lady."
Zhu said, "I dare not."
Fang Jifan said ashamed: "It is Your Majesty's order, please ask the old lady to come up and see you."
Zhu then stood up and glanced at Fang Jifan: "My grandson, I'm following you to study."
Fang Jifan immediately said, "Old lady, you can't say that. Ling Sun is only the younger disciple. His mentor is Wang Bo'an. He has a wronged and has a debt. He can't beat his master..."
Zhu pursed her lips but didn't speak.
This made Fang Jifan feel a little more attentive, and he helped Zhu into the room.
After entering the tribute court, Zhu met Emperor Hongzhi. However, the Minglun Hall in the tribute court was already overcrowded, and the gentry had to make a place obediently.
Zhu bowed down: "I have met Your Majesty."
When Emperor Hongzhi saw that Zhu was old, he said that the Duke of Wei and the royal family had in-laws.
Emperor Hongzhi stood up and said, "Please calmly. I came to Nanjing. I was about to solve the problem today, so I went to the Duke of Wei's mansion. Unexpectedly, you came."
Zhu said, "I don't know that Your Majesty has come to Nanjing. I beg Your Majesty to forgive me for being rude. This Nanjing is a good place with a mild climate and a lot of food. Your Majesty has been in the capital for a long time and has enjoyed the blessing of the whole world. However, there are some foods in Nanjing, but it is also unique. Your Majesty does not know if he has tried it..."
A woman is a woman, and she can still get married at this time.
Fang Jifan really admired him very much. He wanted to write it down with a small notebook. He simply flattered his beauties. It seems that he is not as good as a human being. It would be better to use these tips to build a relationship, which is even more effective!
It was rumored outside that the Duke of Wei was planning to be ill, but the old lady of the Duke of Wei came and started talking about it. The original embarrassment of the monarch and ministers disappeared without a trace at this moment.
Emperor Hongzhi was depressed, but when he thought of the evil deeds of Qi Zhiyuan and others, he felt very unhappy. Now, after hearing Xu's words, he couldn't help but smile: "Okay, I have been in Xiaoling these days. I will go to the Duke of Wei's mansion later to taste the dishes from Jiangnan."
When Zhu heard that the emperor was going to take over the Duke of Wei's Mansion, she felt relieved. She knew in her heart that this was the complete dismissal of the Duke of Wei's Mansion.
Zhu came here today to chat with Emperor Hongzhi. She smiled and said, "I have another happy event when I am here."
"What kind of happy event?"
"There is a report from the capital. With the news of the minister, in addition to this, there is a report from the Ningbo Navy."
Because Emperor Hongzhi was a private visit, almost no news was banned. Most people in the court did not know that he was in Jiangnan, so naturally there would be any urgent reports that would not be delivered to him as soon as possible.
When Emperor Hongzhi heard the news of Ningbo Navy, he moved and said with a stern expression: "Where is the report?"
Zhu took the report, and Fang Jifan stepped forward to take it and passed it to Emperor Hongzhi.
Emperor Hongzhi hurriedly opened it, looked down and his chest suddenly undulated...
Luzon was still a bit far away for the Ming Dynasty. It took one or two months to sail by sea. It could be said to be a place outside the vassal state. Due to the current geographical limitations, Emperor Hongzhi had to teach the Franji people hard and thoroughly understand the influence of the Spanish in the West. Even if the Ningbo navy attacked, it would be impossible for any news to come. If the war was anxious and he fell into a hard battle, it would be possible for three to five years.
He was prepared for this.
Who knew that the news came in just three or four months...
A great victory...
Xu Pengju entered Luzon alone, with holes everywhere, but he survived, providing the Spanish with a wrong message. When the Spanish gathered their troops and wanted to defeat the Ningbo Navy in one fell swoop, they did not expect that they would gather their troops but fell into the trap.
Not only that... Xu Pengju was still in the chaos and killed the Spanish Governor. This... was a great achievement.
Emperor Hongzhi raised his eyebrows...
Keep watching...
Is this kid... a beast changed? I heard that he had been tortured for many days, and was completely exhausted. In the chaos, the governor who killed the other side, was actually... still alive...
call……
Emperor Hongzhi breathed a long sigh.
I finally have something happy today...
A great victory!
