After calming down, Zhu Biao couldn't help but tell Han Du: "Before you present this thing to your father, no one can tell it, let alone look at it, including Gu."
"Is it that serious?" Han Du looked confused, and even felt that Zhu Biao was making a fuss out of a molehill.
Contrary to the relaxed look on Han Du's face, Zhu Biao nodded solemnly to Han Du with a serious face, "Let's go, I will accompany you to the palace."
Zhu Biao still felt that just relying on his words might not attract Han Du's attention. If that's the case, then he can just watch Han Du enter the palace.
Han Du nodded in agreement, smiled and said: "Since this thing is so important, then Lan Yu's matter is probably settled, right?"
Hearing Han Du ask himself, Zhu Biao did not nod, but sighed uncertainly: "I hope so."
...
More than an hour ago, Han Du had just gotten off the warship, and before he even walked out of the water village, someone rushed to the palace to report the news.
Lao Zhu was sitting on the dragon chair as usual, reviewing memorials. In Lao Zhu's hands, Zhu was sometimes as quiet as a virgin, and sometimes as active as a swimming dragon.
These days, Lao Zhu was first surprised because Lan Yu destroyed the Beiyuan Imperial Court, and then became angry because of Lan Yu's various transgressions.
In just a short period of time, Lao Zhu went from extreme joy to extreme anger, and the stimulation he received was simply more intense than what he had experienced in his entire life.
While Lao Zhu was immersed in reviewing the memorial, Mao Xiang walked forward and knelt down.
"What's the matter?" Lao Zhu didn't even raise his head, he just glanced at Mao Xiang and asked in a calm tone.
Mao Xiang straightened up quickly and bowed to Lao Zhu with a smile on his face: "Your Majesty, I am very happy. I have received the news that the Marquis of Zhenhai has captured the Emperor of the Northern Yuan Dynasty. Now he has disembarked and is heading towards the capital."
With a snap, Zhu Pi fell from Lao Zhu's hand and rolled a few times on the imperial case, staining a large area of the memorial red.
Now Lao Zhu had no time to worry about the memorial being tainted by Zhu Criticism. He suddenly raised his head and stared at Mao Xiang, and asked in a voice: "Are you telling the truth?"
"It's absolutely true. I don't dare to lie. I'm afraid that the Marquis of Zhenhai will come to the palace to ask for an audience soon." The joy on Mao Xiang's face was even more exciting than when he was in the wedding night. It was as if the Emperor of Beiyuan had been caught by him.
Lao Zhu suddenly stood up happily and walked back and forth on Danbi with his hands behind his back.
Suddenly he stopped and looked up to the sky with a smile: "Hahaha, okay, Han Du did a good job and lived up to my high expectations for him."
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, Congratulations, Your Majesty, Your Majesty is so blessed that no one in the world can match him." The old eunuch also quickly stood up and bowed to congratulate Old Zhu.
Lao Zhu nodded slightly and took all the congratulatory photos from the old eunuch in an understatement. In the past, perhaps Lao Zhu would have been a little more modest, but now that he heard that Emperor Beiyuan was captured by Han Du, what could Lao Zhu do if he acted recklessly?
"Emperor Beiyuan... Tuogu Si Timur... I really miss you, day and night!" Lao Zhu looked into the air with unfocused eyes and murmured to himself.
Even Lao Zhu looked at a loss when he was about to go out. One moment he was sitting on the dragon chair with his head raised and his chest upright, and the next moment he ran to the throne and stood upright. He even asked the old eunuch if he was dignified enough in that situation.
The old eunuch smiled bitterly in his heart, God
His face was stiff, and he neither dared to say that sitting was dignified, nor did he dare to agree with standing. For a moment, he didn't dare to answer the emperor's question.
Fortunately, Lao Zhu only subconsciously asked the old eunuch and did not necessarily ask him to give him a choice. Therefore, even if the old eunuch didn't answer, Lao Zhu didn't care.
After a while, Lao Zhu came to his senses and quickly issued an order to Mao Xiang: "Quickly, let Togu Si Timur come to see you immediately. I want to take a good look at this, my opponent."
"According to the order!" Mao Xiang bowed with a smile and withdrew happily.
Mao Xiang is a figure in Lao Zhu's entourage. If Lao Zhu is happy, he will naturally be happy too. What's more, Lao Zhu asked him to go and bring Togu Si Timur, naturally he also wanted him to take credit.
As Mao Xiang exited, the excitement on Lao Zhu's face slowly calmed down.
After Lao Zhu calmed down, not only did the joy on his face fade away completely, but he even showed a hint of embarrassment.
"The Marquis of Zhenhai has captured the Emperor of Beiyuan, which can be regarded as a full service for the Marquis of Yongchang. This is a great joy. Why is the emperor worried?" The old eunuch asked very puzzled.
Lao Zhu glared at the old eunuch indifferently, and did not blame him. He just sighed and said: "It is of course a great joy to capture the Emperor of Bei Yuan and completely destroy Bei Yuan. But you will not forget why Lan Yu was killed by me. Put in jail?"
The old eunuch was stunned when he heard this, and he immediately understood. He closed his mouth with a flattering expression and did not dare to say anything more.
Lao Zhu didn't pay attention to the old eunuch. All he was thinking about now was how to expose this matter. Although he decreed that Lan Yu should be imprisoned, no matter what, Lan Yu's contribution to destroying Yuan Ting this time was too great. Lao Zhu never thought of convicting Lan Yu. Putting him in jail was just a warning to him.
Even Lao Zhulian would give him the title of Duke of the Kingdom that he had prepared for Lan Yu long ago, but the title would be changed from the original Duke of Liang to Duke of Liang as a punishment.
Unfortunately, at this juncture, Han Du returned to Beijing with Emperor Beiyuan.
As soon as Emperor Beiyuan came, the matter of the blue jade causing Concubine Yuan to commit suicide became very complicated.
Lao Zhu sighed slightly, not knowing what to do. We can only meet Tuogu Si Timur first, and we will talk about it later.
...
"Xuan, the Emperor of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, Tuogu Si Timur, comes to see you."
The eunuch's sharp voice sounded at the entrance of Fengtian Palace and spread far away.
When Togu Si Timur, who was standing at the bottom of the steps, heard this, he walked up the steps step by step with a numb expression. He didn't know why he came here, and what caused today's predicament. He could only instinctively walk up step by step under the coercion of the guards on both sides and the people behind him.
Until I walked into the hall and saw an old man with gray hair wearing a bright yellow dragon robe and sitting on a dragon chair.
Togu Si Timur didn't stop at his feet, he just walked forward step by step, even after passing the position, he didn't mean to stop.
"Stop!" Mao Xiang saw that Togu Si Timur was so rude and quickly ran two steps to the front to stop him.
When Togu Si Timur saw someone stopping him, he no longer insisted on stepping forward. He just stood still, with his hands behind his back and his head held high in front of Lord Dan.
"How dare you not kneel before the emperor." Mao Xiang saw that he was off his knees.
Gusi Timur said nothing and had no intention of saluting Lao Zhu. He immediately shouted angrily.
Togu Si Timur glanced at Mao Xiang with disdain and scolded: "You are pretending to be powerful and bluffing. How can you speak here? If a guy like you is under my command, you will be nothing more than a centurion." long."
Mao Xiang was ridiculed by Tuugusi Timur, and he was very angry. However, he could only stand there and gnashed his teeth, not daring to step forward at all, let alone do anything to Tuugusi Timur.
Lao Zhu waved his hand and whispered to Mao Xiang: "Get away."
"Yes." Mao Xiang could only feel aggrieved and reluctantly pushed him to stand on Lao Zhu's left hand side.
Lao Zhu looked at Togu Si Timur and laughed softly: "He can only be a centurion under your command, but under my command, he is a general leading an army. From this point of view, , I know people better than you."
As soon as the two emperors met, an invisible confrontation began quietly.
Togu Si Timur ridiculed that Mao Xiang could only be a centurion under his command. In fact, he was referring to Lao Zhu who had no one under his command and looked down upon him.
However, Lao Zhu's understatement not only defused Togu Si Timur's offensive, but even in turn implied that he was not talented enough to recognize people, which was why he became Lao Zhu's prisoner today.
It is a fact that he was captured, and Togu Si Timur could not refute it.
When the two met for the first time, Togu Si Timur bowed down.
Mao Xiang was very relieved when he saw that Togu Si Timur was easily dealt with by the emperor. The whole person stood upright, the arrogance in his heart returned again, and he looked sideways, disdainful to see Togu Si Timur.
Togu Si Timur no longer struggled with this issue. He glanced at Lao Zhu's gray hair, and suddenly his eyes moved and he said, "I heard my father talking about you, but I really didn't expect it. You are actually older than my father."
Tuogu Si Timur is talking about Lao Zhu's age. As people get older, they will naturally become old and frail, and their heroic demeanor will fade away, leaving only an old look.
Lao Zhu is like this now, and Tuogu Si Timur is continuing to test Lao Zhu.
Pointing at Lao Zhu's nose, he laughed at his old age. Only Tuogu Si Timur, who was also the emperor, could do such a thing.
Both the old eunuch and Mao Xiang were silent after hearing this and did not dare to interrupt rashly.
Lao Zhu was uncharacteristically lifeless, but instead had a smile on his face all the time. After pondering for a while, Lao Zhu said with a smile: "Old man, I am ambitious for thousands of miles. Although I am old, my ambition is still the same as when I was young."
Tuogusi Timur said yes because of his age, and his words were ridiculing Lao Zhu. There is even a sense that he is still in the prime of life while Lao Zhu is already dim.
However, Lao Zhu directly pointed out that it doesn't matter how old you are, as long as your ambition remains the same, you will still be as heroic as before. Although he was young, his ambition was not as good as his own.
After hearing this, Togu Si Timur fell silent and even began to reflect on himself. Since he took the throne, although he has always talked about preparing for war and marching southward, he has never actually taken any action. For so many years, the Ming army had launched Northern Expeditions one after another, but the Beiyuan cavalry under his command had never gone south to invade the Ming Dynasty.
