Chapter 124: A Good Fighter Has No Merits
The grudges of the previous generation have nothing to do with Zhu Yunxiu. On the contrary, if all the kings have a close relationship and are in the same spirit, he, the crown prince, would not be able to sleep.
It is a good thing that there is no harmony among the vassal kings.
It was night, and the window was silent. Zhu Yunyu in the room did not sleep, but looked up at the starry sky and thought about his thoughts secretly.
After a long time, I sat back to the table, spread out the paper and pen, and wrote quickly.
Two letters were sent in one piece, and after drying the ink marks, they called out to the door, and the founding Duke came to see the orphan!
Not long after, Chang Sheng tidied up his clothes and came to the door. Your Highness, are you looking for me?
Zhu Yunxiu pushed open the door, waved his hand to the guard, and asked the other party to retreat. Then he turned around, and Chang Sheng followed him into the room.
There are two letters! Zhu Yunxiu put the letter into the envelope and instructed seriously, find two people and send them back to the capital without delaying for a moment!
Seeing that Zhu Yunxi looked solemn and did not let the guards of the East Palace do it, but instead let the Chang family come forward, Chang Sheng knew that this was a big deal and said in a low voice, Your Highness, don’t worry, everyone around me is the old man of the Chang family, and life and death depend on the Chang family, and he is the most loyal and reliable!
All the letters were handed over to He Guangyi, the commander of the Jinyiwei. One letter was given to him and the other was given to the General Manager of the Eastern Palace. The turtle was ashamed! Zhu Yunxiu handed over the letter and said, asking the person who sent the letter to tell He Guangyi that he must do his best to do his best. If he cannot do it well, he should not be an official!
Yes! I will do it now! Chang Sheng carefully collected the letter and wanted to turn around and leave, but just took two steps and looked back and asked with concern, Your Highness, what is wrong in the capital? Otherwise, I rushed back overnight and garrisoned......
Second uncle, it’s okay! Zhu Yunxi smiled slightly, just a little private matter, no need to make a fuss!
Private affairs, private affairs that are prepared for the future.
Power has never been peacefully transferred. Behind peace are countless secret clashes, invisible swords and swords, and invisible murderous intent.
Zhu Yunyu had a premonition that some things were by no means his random thoughts, and some things were not so-called coincidences.
That night, several fast horses left Taiyuan City overnight, and even King Zhu Qi of Jin did not know.
After Chang Sheng received the letter, the first person he found was the commander of Taiyuan Guard, Han Xun, the Marquis of Huaiqing. This person was originally a deputy general under Chang Yuchun. Later, he was promoted to commander and guard Taiyuan for his merits. With his help, he could naturally leave the city without knowing it.
In the next few days, accompanied by King Zhu Qi of Jin, Zhu Yunxi carefully inspected the situation of Taiyuan Guards and Jin vassal troops. He also rode his horse to inspect various passes, fortresses, ranches and other places outside Taiyuan.
Especially in pastures, soldiers on the border of the Ming Dynasty mostly farmed livestock and used as food rations. They also nomadic horses to eliminate the life of imitating Hu people and train soldiers to be able to fight with martial arts.
Outside Taiyuan, Dongsheng went to Xuanfu, and a total of eighteen guards were established, all led by the King of Jin. The officers and soldiers of the eighteen guards were summoned to fight and came and went like the wind.
Interestingly, in the early years, when King Jin was in the vassal state, the old man taught him step by step. His experience as a shepherd boy for the landlord's family in the early years was to let the King of Jin know how to grazle sheep in his mouth, how to treat war horses and lambs, how to assign them to the guards, and how to train foals.
Then, the army of the front guards learned from the Hu people, drank goat's milk, used wool to keep warm, etc.
But when I think about those things, Zhu Qi didn't take it to heart. How could he, a prince, go raise a lamb in person?
Among the Taiyuan guards, there were a large number of Hu soldiers. These people were responsible for grazing livestock when they were idle and were elite cavalry during wartime. King Jin was also quite proud of this.
The loyalty of the Hu people was a symbol of the power of the Central Plains dynasty. As stated in the founding ceremony and music of the Ming Dynasty, China and the barbarians were unified from then on. All under the world were the people of the Ming Dynasty.
After only a few days, Zhu Yunyu was about to set off to Xi'an. The King of Jin repeatedly tried to keep him, but Zhu Yunyu had already decided.
The emperor's grandson left the city, and the King of Jin brought civil and military officials from Taiyuan to thirty miles outside the city.
On the occasion of separation, the crown prince admired King Jin, five beautiful women from Korea and five eunuchs, all of which were selected from the capital.
~~
Going westward, autumn is getting stronger.
More than ten days later, the imperial grandson and imperial guards had entered Guanzhong.
The fertile land of Guanzhong is thousands of miles away, bordering the Wei River in the north and the Qinling Mountains in the south, which is the foundation of the emperor.
This place is the pre-Qin land, and it is also the ancient capital of the thirteen dynasties. The so-called talented men in the south and the prime minister of the north, and the loess in Shaanxi buried the emperor. The ancient saints established many capitals here. Holding the fertile soil of Guanzhong, he summoned old Qin men to admire the world.
The Qin King's fief is in Xi'an Prefecture, and was called Chang'an in ancient times. It is even more profound and heroic than Taiyuan, and stands majestic among the world.
It should be noted that at this time, Xi'an Prefecture was several times larger than that of later generations. The Qin vassal Xi'an Prefecture had six prefectures, fourteen directly under the jurisdiction of counties, and seventeen prefectures under the jurisdiction of counties, with a population of more than one million.
The Qin people seemed dull and simple, but in fact they were the most martial and powerful. There were countless elite soldiers and generals among the Qin vassals. In fact, if we judged by strength, among the vassals in the world, the Qin vassals were the strongest.
Upon hearing that Zhu Yunyu had already entered Guanzhong, King Zhu Cheng of Qin personally led elite cavalry of the vassal kings to go out to meet him thirty miles away. Also known as the officials in the city, they knelt in front of the city gate, set up incense tables and loess roads. The soldiers along the way were warned that ordinary people were not allowed to approach.
Seeing Zhu Yunxiu's banner from afar, Zhu Feng quickly dismounted and trotted to meet him, calling out, "My minister, please see His Royal Highness the Emperor!"
So! Zhu Yunxiu tied the war horse and leaned over slightly on the horse. There was no particular look on his face. He said, "If you can't help Qin King goes out of the city to welcome him, come into the city! I have something to ask you!"
Seeing that Zhu Yunxi looked wrong, Zhu Ren's heart skipped a beat. He had already received the message from the wind and the crown prince came to Xi'an Prefecture to repair him according to the old man's will.
Zhu Chuang was a young man and outstanding among the princes. However, after he became an adult, he became absurd. Moreover, as he grew older, these things became more and more severe, and he did not know how to restrain himself.
A hint of embarrassment appeared on his face. Zhu Chuang did not say much, but turned over and followed Zhu Yunxi, and headed towards Xi'an Prefecture.
Before he reached the city gate, his sight was filled with civil and military officials kneeling on the ground, and his voice was huge. Because of the greeting of him, the people near the city gate were driven away, and pedestrians were cut off on the road.
Zhu Yunxi looked slightly unhappy. What's going on? Didn't the orphan say something simple?
When he heard that His Highness arrived at Xi'an Prefecture, the officials and gentry in the city were ecstatic! Zhu Ren smiled and said, "They are all waiting to bathe in the heavenly grace!"
God’s kindness? I think it’s a waste of money! Zhu Yunxiu said unhappily, with such a big formation, loess cushion and purifying water pouring on the street, why do you have to do these things? Who can I show it?
Zhu Ren was immediately angry and said to himself, "I am your second uncle, you have made a statement!" When the old man set you up that day, I was the first to kneel down to support you. You...a little unconscience!"
Zhu Yunxi knew that the other party must have been unhappy because of his harsh words. He immediately sighed in a low voice, "Second uncle, do you know what I am here for? Are you not afraid of embarrassing when you make it so grand? As he said that, he waved his hand and let them part. He went back to the government office to work, so that the people in the city can move freely, and do business and do business!
Zhu Chuang suddenly realized that the crown prince was repairing him according to the old man's wishes. The crown prince was unwilling to be proud of himself, so he was giving himself a face. He was so generous, didn't he slap himself in the face?
At this moment, the anger in my heart was gone, and I felt a little more grateful.
After all, he is his nephew, and he knows to think about his own face!
Tell them that it had scattered and His Highness came from afar, and was tired and saw them again the next day! Zhu Cheng immediately ordered his personal guards to come forward and pass the message to other officials.
The imperial guard entered the city and headed straight towards the Qin Palace.
After entering the Qin Prince's Mansion, even Zhu Yun's mother was stunned.
It should be noted that the ancient city of Xi'an Prefecture is the ancient capital of the thirteen dynasties and is the best in the world. The palace of the King of Qin in front of us is more magnificent than that of Xi'an City.
Whether it is the Yan Palace or the Jin Palace, it is not enough to look at the Qin Palace. Even the Forbidden City may not be so magnificent.
This second uncle is really...
Zhu Yunxi sighed in his heart, stopped in front of the second door that was connected to the front hall of the royal palace and the backyard, and said, "King of Qin, I have heard that your palace is exquisite, but I didn't expect it to be so exquisite. You have compared the place where the emperor lives!
Zhu Ren bowed slightly, and cold sweat was already spreading from his head.
Zhu Yunyu looked at him, and Fu Rang drove the people around him to retreat from afar. In front of the door pavilion, there were only their uncle and nephew.
In the 11th year of Hongwu, when you were in the vassal of Xi'an, Grandpa Huang specifically instructed him.
The people in the pass have been exhausted since the Yuan Dynasty fell into power. Now that we have pacified the world, we have to transport grain and pay taxes, and the people have not yet recovered. After you arrive in the vassal state, if the palace has been repaired, don’t care about the good or bad, just move in. Never build a large amount of construction, waste money and increase the burden on the people!
But look, your palace is not just a waste of money, but a large-scale construction is as simple as it is!
Such a palace cannot be built without years of hard work!
As he said that, Zhu Yunxiu glanced at Zhu Lin. Second uncle, his father was there before, and he always helped you cover up. Now that his father passed away, you still do your own thing and do these things that make the emperor angry. Do you really think that your king's title is reluctant to be stripped?
