Chapter 110 Peking Barbarians

Marching all the way, Zhu Xiongying did not feel bored. It seemed like a boring march, but this was part of the war. Not to mention now, even after entering the grassland, he would still march continuously most of the time.
p>

If you want to experience the iron blood of the battlefield, you need to endure the boring march. This is the most normal thing.

What's more, Zhu Xiongying was constantly communicating with some veterans and some talents on the march, which was also beneficial to his growth.

Talking on paper is not enough. When you go out with an army, you will encounter many things on the road. It is precisely encountering these things that allows Zhu Xiongying to better integrate some of the knowledge in the book.

For example, regarding the baggage, setting up camps, restraining military discipline, etc., even if Zhu Xiongying had some ideas before, they were all superficial. But now that he has experienced these, he naturally has a deeper understanding.

The continuous march also allowed Zhu Xiongying to see the city of Beiping, the former capital of the Yuan Dynasty, and now Beiping.

Twenty years ago, Xu Da invaded Dadu and overthrew the rule of the Yuan Dynasty. Eight years ago, King Zhu Di of Yan came to power. Now Beiping is more of a military town. Even if it has restored some vitality, it cannot be said to be very prosperous.<

/p>

Compared with the towns in the south, towns in the north are generally more desolate, which is unavoidable. In the 20 years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, even if some people's power has been restored, there is still a long way to go before the prosperous times.

It is also very necessary to continue to restore people's livelihood. It is a long and arduous task.

This time Zhu Xiongying does not need to stay outside the city. The army will not enter the city, but Zhu Xiongying can lead a small number of guards into the city.

Zhu Di was riding a sweaty horse, fully armored, and happily greeted Zhu Xiongying thirty miles outside the city.

Seeing the smoke and dust billowing in front of him, Zhu Di became even more happy. Seeing his eldest nephew was the second most important thing. The main thing was that he could go out with the army this time. This was the most exciting thing for him. This was not just patrolling the border, it was a battle with the army.

The Tatars are fighting!

"Fourth!" Zhu Xi glanced at Zhu Di and said seriously, "Xiongying is the emperor's grandson now, you'd better pay attention."

Zhu Fan also said at this time, "If we follow the rules set by our father, when we see the heroes, we should first talk about the courtesy of the emperor and his ministers."

"I know." Although Zhu Di was a little unhappy, he still said, "Second brother, third brother, don't worry. I know it in my heart, and I definitely can't be careless. This time Xiongying comes over, I have already had people tidy up the place.

."

Zhu Xiongying's residence definitely cannot be Prince Yan's Mansion, but it doesn't matter.

After all, this used to be the capital of the Yuan Dynasty. Although the imperial city has long since declined, it can still be tidied up a little. In fact, Prince Yan's Mansion was part of the imperial city of the former capital, and it was the inner palace of the former Yuan Dynasty.

This is also a part of the Yuan Dynasty palace with Taiye Pool as the center, namely Da Nei, Longfu Palace and Xingsheng Palace. Da Nei is the official palace city, and Zhu Xiongying has no problem living here. He is the emperor's grandson after all.

Zhu Di, on the other hand, deliberately avoided the bedrooms of these emperors and crown princes when he built Prince Yan's Mansion.

While the third brother was still chatting, he suddenly saw a group of cavalry appearing in front of him, led by Xu Yungong.

Xu Yungong simply saluted. The cavalry he brought did not dismount, but inspected the entourage brought by King Qin and others. He was relieved when he saw that although these people were wearing armor, they did not carry weapons.<

/p>

Zhu Fang and others were not unhappy either. They were princes and Zhu Xiongying's uncles, but the court's legal system was also there. Those who were currently on an expedition could not really allow them to bring a large army close to Zhu Xiongying. Even if they returned to Yingying,

In Tianfu, you also need to go through layers of inspections when entering the palace.

A horse with fur as black as satin appeared carrying a young man on its back. Zhu Di's heart was bleeding. Last time he went back to attend the grandson's enthronement ceremony, he gave away the bloody horse "willingly".<

/p>

"Second uncle, third uncle, fourth uncle!" Zhu Xiongying happily waved his riding crop and shouted from a distance, "I miss you so much!"

Zhu Fang and others knelt down quickly and saluted, "I, King Qin Zhu Fang (King of Jin Zhu Fan, King of Yan Zhu Di), pay homage to His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun, Your Highness Qianqiu!"

Zhu Xiongying held the reins slightly, sat on the horse and said calmly, "Xing."

This set of royal etiquette was over. Zhu Xiongying jumped off the horse and said happily, "Second uncle, I will go out to fight this time. I remember you said earlier that you would take me to fight the Tatars.

This trip is a dream come true.”

Zhu Fang was also very happy, and held Zhu Xiongying's arm affectionately, "Xiongying has grown up too. I have been teasing you for a long time, but I didn't know you would actually come out! This time, my second uncle will take you to fight the Tatars.

We destroyed the royal court and sealed the wolf as a slave!"

"Father and eldest brother are also partial." Zhu Fan said with some complaints, "If you really want to talk about it, I am better at fighting than my second brother, so why am I the one guarding the back? The second brother should be the one guarding the back, me and the fourth brother

Follow the heroes to battle!"

Zhu Xiongying smiled brightly, looked at Zhu Di and said, "Fourth Uncle, I remember that Fourth Uncle likes to fight Tatars the most. I have thought about it for a long time before, originally thinking that Fourth Uncle would be the vanguard, but this is not good after all."

"I can!" Zhu Di's eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "My nephew, let me be the pioneer!"

Zhu Xiongying laughed loudly and said, "I can't make the decision on this matter. General Xu Da can make arrangements. Besides, the vanguard is dangerous, and my grandfather and father must not be allowed to do it."

Zhu Di immediately became sour. He, his second brother, and his third brother were still favored, but compared to the eldest brother and eldest nephew, the difference was still very big. The eldest brother and the eldest nephew were only called "father" (imperial grandfather) on extremely formal occasions.

', is usually a title used by ordinary people. But Zhu Di and the others cannot be called that in private.

But just get used to it, as the father and mother have never concealed their partiality.

After all, we are outside the city and it is not suitable to talk much at this time. We must return to Peking.

It is necessary to rest for a few days. After all, the army has been marching for more than a month, and some people are tired and tired. Although they have not reached Daning yet, they still need to rest at this time before they can really go out to find the people of Beiyuan.<

/p>

Although most of the troops are camped outside the city, Zhu Xiongying does not need to worry about anything. There are enough generals responsible for setting up camp, and things such as food and grass are fully prepared. After all, Peiping is also an important military town now.<

/p>

Zhu Xiongying went straight to the former Imperial Palace of Dadu. Looking at the dilapidated Beiping, Zhu Xiongying also had some emotions.

In fact, Xu Da was also busy building the city after conquering Dadu, but no matter how you look at it now, Peiping is now a military town with a stronger style. And even after some recuperation, it is still not prosperous enough.

Not to mention the imperial city of the Yuan Dynasty, even though it has been busy tidying up, it still looks a bit depressed.

The place where Zhu Xiongying lived was by Taiye Pond. Zhu Xiongying looked around and said, "It's quite exquisite here, but it's still not as good as our imperial city."

The reason why I say this is because the imperial city in Yingtian Mansion is actually what many people think of as the Forbidden City in the future. Whether it was Zhu Di moving the capital in history or the Manchus entering the customs, they were all based on the Yingtian Mansion Emperor set by Lao Zhu.

The imperial city built as a blueprint.

Zhu Xi smiled and said, "They are all uncivilized barbarians who don't understand etiquette."

Hearing what Zhu Xi said, Zhu Xiongying couldn't help laughing, but then he said, "Second uncle, I didn't want to talk more about your family affairs. I know you are dissatisfied with the princess, but there are some things that are difficult to do.

It’s too much.”

Zhu Xiang's face changed instantly and he looked very unhappy.

His princess was a Guanyin slave. In order to recruit Wang Baobao to surrender, Lao Zhu betrothed Guanyin slave to Zhu Chong. You must know that Zhu Chong was quite unhappy. He didn't like that Mongolian woman.

So over the years, he pampered his side concubine Deng, locked up his main concubine in the palace, and used broken bowls to deliver stale fruits and rice every day. Although Guanyin Nu was a princess, she was like a prisoner.

Even Zhu Xi didn't want to sleep with Guanyin Nu, because he always felt that the man was a Tatar and smelled bad.

Looking at Zhu Xiang's face, Zhu Xiongying could only say, "Second uncle, Wang is the royal concubine after all. Even if the husband and wife are at odds and have no children, they still have to treat each other with courtesy."

Zhu Xi was not happy anymore, so he muttered, "Would you be happy if you were asked to marry a barbarian?"

Zhu Xiongying was happy when he heard this and said, "As long as she is not the royal concubine, so what? I am not afraid of violating taboos. There are also Koreans and Mongolians in my grandfather's palace. To win the hearts of the people of the world, those foreign races should also be considered."

Zhu Xi was even more unhappy and said, "Then why doesn't the eldest brother accept the barbarians?"

Zhu Xiongying didn't know what to say at this time. If he really wanted to say it, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty was considered to be 'special in love'. Although there were many concubines, there was probably only one he fell in love with.

"I, it's hard for me to talk about this." Zhu Xiongying felt embarrassed and said, "I can't persuade my father to take a concubine, otherwise my mother will definitely accuse me. Second uncle, please be more careful.

After all, there are some Mongolians in the DPRK."

Zhu Fang still didn't speak. He felt uncomfortable whenever he thought that his first concubine was a Mongolian. The other brothers' first concubines were all after Wu Xun, but his first concubine was a foreigner.

Seeing Zhu Xiang's unhappy look, Zhu Xiongying didn't know what to say.

Speaking of Zhu Xi’s concubine, she is the so-called prototype of Zhao Min. It’s a pity that Zhu Xi is not Zhang Wuji, and Guanyin Nu is not the gorgeous, charming and lovely Zhao Min.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not harmonious, Zhu Fan hurriedly said, "Fourth brother, is the banquet at your house ready? Heroes are tired after coming all the way here. Let's go drink and enjoy the dance."
