Emperor Zhengde of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 15: 800 miles expedited, good news to Beijing!

a few days later.

Forbidden City.

Drive drive!

Hundreds of flying fish costumes embroidered with spring knives in Jinyiwei flew to the Meridian Gate!

Horses ride on flying swallows, and the powerhouse gallops!

The guards at the gatehouse were about to stop them, but Qianhu, headed by Jinyiwei, held an urgent letter of 800 miles in their hands!

However, the law of the Ming Dynasty stipulated that in any emergency military situation, the guards could directly rush into the Baiyu Square on horseback.

In addition to this situation, the rest of the horses who enter the palace will be beheaded!

Morning morning once every three days!

Inside the Xuanzheng Hall.

The Zhengde Emperor Zhu Houzhao was discussing state affairs with the civil and military officials.

Suddenly, rapid footsteps sounded outside.

"Report!"

"Report!"

"Eight hundred miles of northwest Jiayuguan emergency report!"

"Jiayuguan Victory, Victory, the northern Tartar and Mongolian enemy troops were all executed! The war horses were seized, and there were countless weapons!"

Zhu Houzhao stood above the court with a happy expression on his face. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, suppressing the joy in his heart, and said aloud, "Come up!"

At the same time, all the civil and military officials under the jade steps showed excited expressions.

Qi Jingtong, Qian Ning really did not live up to the hopes of His Majesty and the court for them, and the border crisis in Daming was finally resolved.

Deng Deng Deng!

The soldiers hurried to Xuanzheng Hall and respectfully delivered the 800-mile expedited documents to the eunuch.

When Zhu Houzhao opened the document, the excitement on his face was beyond words.

Under the jade steps, the ministers looked forward to it.

The document center records the course of the war in detail.

At the same time, Qi Jingtong put Duan Tianya and Guihai Yidao at Hulong Villa for the first credit in suppressing the thief army.

"Your Majesty, the heads of the Tartar leaders are all outside the hall!"

When this voice sounded, all the ministers of Chinese and military affairs showed joy.

Zhu Houzhao handed the document to the **** who was close to the bodyguard, and said without anger, "Read!"

The valet **** respectfully took the document and read it aloud in the Xuanzheng Hall.

When the civil and military officials heard this, the worries in their hearts were immediately resolved, and everyone in the entire hall was refreshed.

The chief assistant of the cabinet, Liu Jian, burst into tears with joy, walked out of the train quickly, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the clerk will send the attack that killed the head of the Tartar to Duan Tianya and Guihai of Hulong Villa, and the two of them are not afraid of life and death. The head of the leader of the Tartars was beheaded, and the minister thought it was a credit for the head."

"Your Majesty should also reward the soldiers who fought **** battles for Daming, and reward the three armies to show His Majesty's kindness."

Zhu Houzhao nodded slightly and said loudly: "What Liu Ge said is very true, and I have exactly what I mean!"

"Pass my will, protect the Dragon Villa, Duan Tianya, return to the sea with a sword, not afraid of life and death, personally kill the leader of the Tatar, and make great achievements, canonized as the second-rank guard with a sword!"

"Qi Jingtong, Department of Military Selection of the Ministry of War, and Qian Ning Xingye rushed to help Jiayuguan, disarmed countless numbers, and were conferred the commander of Jiayuguan Guards!"

"Qian Ning, the minister of military affairs, has been promoted to the third rank, and has joined the military selection department of the military department as a deputy!"

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

The ministers finished their words.

Zhu Houzhao was not immersed in the joy of the good news.

When the civil and military people of the whole dynasty were immersed in the joy of the good news, Zhu Houzhao suddenly stood up and said solemnly: "Now that the foreign power has been eliminated, for today's plan, when the foundation is stable, all of them will be eliminated in one fell swoop. future trouble!"

"Send Qi Jingtong, Qian Ning goes deep into the mountains and Gobi, step by step, even if it is thousands of miles deep, we must eradicate the Tatars!"

When Baiguan heard the words, he was surprised at first, and then applauded for His Majesty's heroic decision!

Although there are few emperors, their hearts are in the world and their ambitions are no less than that of the ancestor emperor Zhu Yuanzhang!

Zhu Houzhao still understands the truth of taking his life while he catches fire.

Originally, the war between the two countries was like the truth of two men fighting, which Zhu Houzhao understood since he was a child.

Just when the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty cheered for Zhu Houzhao's sage, another edict from Zhu Houzhao shocked the ministers!

The meaning of the edict is very clear. It ordered the thirteen subordinate states of Daming to prepare silver taels, and first make up for the short silver taels in the hands of Emperor Hongzhi!

Anyone who has received an edict from the Daming Emperor but failed to act shall be punished!

In addition, among the thirteen affiliated states of the Ming Dynasty, except for the Japanese, all other affiliated states knew the news that the northern Tartars were defeated and beheaded, and they had realized the seriousness of the situation.

Originally thought that Daming had been going downhill since the late Hongzhi Emperor, but who would have thought that this battle alone would allow them to truly see the strength of the Daming Empire!

The Daming Empire is still the Daming Empire that stands on the top of the eastern nation!

The monarchs and ministers of those affiliated countries received the imperial decree of the Ming Dynasty, and they were all trembling one by one, for fear that Emperor Zhengde would find them in trouble for the past few years.

Immediately, the monarchs and ministers of the affiliated countries issued an edict overnight to collect taxes to collect the annual tribute!

......

Hall of Mental Cultivation,

Zhu Houzhao fell asleep.

After waking up, he saw that the sun was shining outside the hall and the spring flowers were blooming. Zhu Houzhao put on his casual clothes and stepped out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

At this time, a little **** came to Zhu Houzhao and handed a roll of memorials.

After Zhu Houzhao opened the memorial, the memorial recorded the major events in the court and the public in recent days.

Xie Qian, the minister of households, went to the concubine's room to rest in the third watch, and came out every day at the fifth watch.

Wang Ao, Minister of Rites, was a guest at the house of Qian Fang, Minister of War. The two talked very happily, mainly discussing Qian Ning's expedition to the West and things in the Ministry of War.

During the period, they praised the most is the Daming Emperor, a good emperor who is brave and resourceful, and dares to be decisive.

Yu Huatian, the director of the West Factory, is on his way back to Beijing...

Zhu Houzhao closed the memorial and handed it over to the eunuch.

Zhu Houzhao paced casually on the Baiyu Square.

Several eunuchs from the Cining Palace came to Zhu Houzhao.

"Initiate Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager summoned His Majesty at the Cining Palace!"

The Empress Dowager Zhang was newly canonized by Zhu Houzhao recently. The Western Empress Dowager was abolished before, and now his biological mother Zhang is the current Empress Dowager.

Zhang's family was Emperor Hongzhi's beloved wife all his life, and he was the only empress who was enshrined in his life. From ancient times to the present, all emperors have been in three palaces and six courtyards, and the emperor who only married one daughter in his life was only Emperor Hongzhi.

However, in this lifetime, he has only left one son, the Zhengde Emperor Zhu Houzhao!

Zhu Houzhao came to Cining Palace, and the eunuchs and maids of Cining Palace saluted one after another.

"Queen Mother, Second Mother, Third Mother."

"Oh, Zhao'er is here, let me take a look. I haven't seen you for a few days. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com has grown taller and stronger!"

"Ah, my son is full of energy..."

The Erniang and Sanniang in Zhu Houzhao's mouth were the palace maids who entered the palace with the Empress Dowager Zhang. They never married in their whole life. They were brothers and sisters with the Empress Dowager. Because Emperor Hongzhi favored Empress Zhang, the status of the two of them would be raised a lot. .

The queen mother took Zhu Houzhao's hand and looked up and down: "You are the emperor now, you can't be naughty like before. You are the emperor of the Ming Dynasty now, and no one can protect you. Everything is up to you."

In the entire Daming Empire, only the Empress Dowager Zhang can scold Zhu Houzhao.

"Oh, Zhao'er, your father left early, and he didn't leave you brothers and sisters. Aijia feels a lot of guilt!" Empress Dowager Zhang said, pulling Zhu Houzhao into her arms.

She remembered that when Emperor Hongzhi was dying, the only thing he worried about was not the Daming Jiangshan, nor the numerous eunuchs, but the Empress Zhang.

She remembered Emperor Hongzhi saying: "I'm not afraid of death, I'm just afraid that after my death, my wife will be lonely, she will stay alone in the empty room in the endless night, afraid of losing her true love forever..."

Empress Dowager Zhang recalled these past events and could not help but burst into tears...

Yes, Emperor Hongzhi is also a human being, and he is also a person with feelings. He is reluctant to leave his wife and give up his love!

At that time, Mrs. Zhang was distraught, and her husband's death hit her too hard. If it wasn't for the prince Zhu Houzhao, he would have been unable to support her.

She always felt that Emperor Hongzhi was still alive, and was still reviewing memorials day and night in the Qianqing Palace.

Maybe it was because he worked hard for the country. He was too tired and wanted to go to another world to spend a few days of leisure.

However, isn't it all her and her son's leftovers?
