Chapter 37 The Princess and the Saint
Zhu Youjian looked around and looked at the battlefield. There were corpses and seas of blood everywhere. It would be no exaggeration to say that blood flowed into a river.
Almost all elite cavalry of the bandits had two horses, and one was three horses. There were many war horses that had lost their masters on the battlefield, and many war horse corpses.
What the Ming Dynasty lacks most now is food rations. People are displaced, all for the sake of asking for food. Zhu Youjian turned around and said to Qi Jiguang and others:
"General Qi, you are responsible for cleaning the battlefield. All personnel are transferred with you. Live war horses are left behind. Dead horses and severely injured war horses are all pickled for food. Other teams must cooperate with the implementation."
Qi Jiguang admired Zhu Youjian's wise decision and hurriedly held his fists to take the order:
"Qi Jiguang obeys the order"
After explaining Qi Jiguang, Zhu Youjian arranged for Qinglong again:
"Qinglong, take Li Dakai to find a place to live, let them have a full meal and have a good rest. The residences of those officials who were searched will follow Li Dakai to pick up their family."
Qinglong Li Dakai clasped his fists at the same time:
"Abide by the orders of humble duties."
"My minister Li Dakai, thank the emperor for his kindness.
After Zhu Youjian and the Yue Girl left, Qi Jiguang immediately issued an order to clean the battlefield. All the corpses of the bandits were dug to be buried, and all the dead soldiers were transported back to the capital to have a grand funeral.
Although the Ming Dynasty was all elite, facing several times of bandits with them, nearly tens of thousands of people were still honored in this battle and nearly a thousand people died in battle.
The Xuan Armored Iron Cavalry suffered little loss, only a few dozen people died in battle, and the Qi family army was more than 200. The biggest loss was Sun Chuanting's new army, with about 800 people killed in battle.
Wars cannot be without soldiers' casualties, annihilated hundreds of thousands of bandits, and only lost so many military troops, which is acceptable to Zhu Youjian and several generals.
The Qi family army and the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry were responsible for digging pits to bury the corpses, and Sun Chengzong led the Shenji Camp to return the war horses to the cage.
Sun Chuanting's new army is responsible for pickling the dead war horses together. If you find a seriously injured war horse, you will kill them on the spot and pickle them together.
More than 20,000 dead war horses on both sides, and now the people are hungry, and these horse meat can be provided to them to satisfy their hunger.
For those hungry people, they can’t even eat rice and they will definitely be reluctant to find horse meat.
Ningshou Palace
Princess Changping Zhu Weixiu's arm injury has gradually improved after being treated with true qi and medication. After gentle movement, she can no longer feel the pain.
A few days ago, Wang Chengen was only with her, which was very boring. Later, Zhu Youjian sent more than a dozen palace maids to serve her. After the number of people came out, he would sometimes forget the departure of his mother and queen.
Princess Changping was worried when she heard the rumbling sound of cannons outside the city. She was very worried about her father's safety and felt very panicked.
The relatives around her left one by one. The father was now her only relative. With the help of the palace maid, Princess Changping gently got up and got out of bed.
"Cailing Hongyu, you two accompany me out for a walk. I feel so depressed. I want to breathe."
Cailing Hongyu is the two new palace maids around her. When they saw Princess Changping want to go out for a walk, they were in a dilemma.
Because Wang Chengen had instructed them to take good care of the princess, they were worried that the princess would encounter an accident when she went out and was fighting now.
"Your Highness, you are fighting outside the city, and it is not very safe now. I suggest you don't go out."
Princess Changping knew that the palace maids were in a difficult situation. Although she was in a bad mood, the kind-hearted Princess Changping did not make things difficult for them.
"You are worried about the punishment of the king, right? Then I won't make things difficult for you. Let's go to Kunning Palace to see you, and miss your mother."
"Sister obeys the order"
Cailing Hongyu was very grateful to the princess for understanding. The two of them supported the princess to the Kunning Palace, one left and one right.
The bodies of Empress Zhou and others were not in the palace, and they were all sent to the imperial tomb by Wang Chengen. Now the palace lives in the palace is the saint of the White Lotus Sect, Green Lotus.
The saint of the White Lotus Sect, Qinglian, was assassinated by Zhu Youjian last time, and Zhu Youjian pushed her down violently in anger.
This hit Qinglian, who regarded chastity as more important than life, suffered a heavy blow.
The double blow on the mind and body made Qinglian not stick to oil for two days. She wanted to hang herself and died, but was rescued by the palace maid and failed to hang herself.
Zhu Youjian was very busy. For his own life and for the sake of the Han family, he forgot about this matter after he pushed down Qinglian.
If she couldn't hang herself, Qinglian had begun to choose to go on a hunger strike. The two palace maids were worried about holding rice and fish soup.
If Qinglian was starved to death, they were worried that the emperor would not let them go.
Wang Cheng'en specifically confessed that Qinglian had been favored by the emperor and that she was also the only woman the emperor has at present, so she must take good care of her.
Just when they were in a dilemma, Princess Changping, Zhu Wei-chan, with a bandage on her arms, came to Kunning Palace with a color bell and red jade.
Princess Changping thought that Kunning Palace was uninhabited, but when she walked into the palace, she found someone inside, so the three of them walked into the room where Qinglian was.
"See Your Highness, please see His Highness."
The two palace maids discovered that Princess Changping suddenly came to Kunning Palace and hurriedly stepped forward to pay tribute to him. Princess Changping is very kind by nature and never puts on airs in front of the palace maids.
She looked at the Qinglian on the couch and nodded to the two palace maids:
"Everyone is free, what's going on? Why are you in Kunning Palace? Who is she?"
Worried that the princess would blame him, the two palace maids knelt in front of Zhu Wei:
"Report to the princess, she was sent by the emperor. The Wang Banban specifically told us to take good care of her, but she has been on a hunger strike for two days."
"Oh, the father sent it?"
Princess Changping couldn't help but feel a little shocked, then walked to Qinglian and looked at Qinglian carefully.
Qinglian was lying on the couch, unable to tell her figure. Her pretty face was a little pale, but she could not hide her beauty and charm. She looked like a great beauty at first glance.
When Princess Changping looked at Qinglian, Qinglian's beautiful eyes were also staring at Princess Changping. She had just heard that the girl was a princess.
He looks fourteen or fifteen years old, elegant and elegant, beautiful and tender. Although he is young, he is extremely beautiful and gorgeous.
Her cheeks are innocent, her cheeks are flushed, her skin is fair, and she is beautiful and elegant. Unfortunately, she has a bandage wrapped around her arms, which has some impact on her beauty.
Qinglian has always been proud of her appearance and temperament, but today this beautiful little princess is not inferior to her at all, and even has a more pure feeling.
In theory, Qinglian should have hated the people around Chongzhen, but for some reason, she couldn't hate the little beauty in front of her.
Qinglian slowly closed her eyes, not wanting to look at Princess Changping. She was worried that she would be soft-hearted, and suddenly a pleasant voice suddenly rang in her ears:
"My beauty sister, who are you? How could you live in Kunning Palace? Can you tell Wei Xi?"
When Zhu Wei was speaking, she looked like a girl next door. She did not regard herself as a princess of the Ming Dynasty at this time.
