"Fan Wencheng, stop talking!" Huang Taiji became more and more worried as he thought about it, so he interrupted Fan Wencheng who was reporting something.
"Hey." Fan Wencheng, who was already kneeling on the ground, quickly collected the letter from Zhangjiakou, then knelt respectfully, waiting for his master to speak.
Huang Taiji said: "Hearing is false, seeing is believing... and hearing is not as good as reading. To understand what Zhu Youjian is doing, you still have to see!"
"Great Khan, Holy Ming." Fan Wencheng also didn't understand what Huang Taiji was talking about? But this doesn't stop him from flattering him - flattery doesn't stink even if it stinks!
Huang Taiji smiled. He also knew that he was a sage. If he wasn't a sage, why would he be regarded as a prostrate?
"Wen Cheng, you still have some discernment and are loyal to the Kingdom of Jin. Why don't you work hard and take a trip to the pass to see with your own eyes the cavalry in front of the little emperor's tent of the Zhu family."
"Great Khan..." Fan Wencheng was a little anxious when he heard this. Of course he didn't want to go... Only by following Great Khan would he have a future! If you go out as a spy, no matter how accurate the information you get is, it is not as good as being a personal servant of the Great Khan.
Moreover, Fan Wencheng had recently married a house-filler, a woman who was as beautiful as a flower. He hadn't even enjoyed her a few times, so how could he be willing to go far away?
However, Fan Wencheng didn't dare to tell the truth to Huang Taiji, so he had to find other excuses, "Sweat, my slave has shaved his hair... I can't sneak in!"
Huang Taiji then remembered that Fan Wencheng was a slave with a shaved head - the Kingdom of Jin also had professional craftsmen who had not shaved their hair, so it would be hard to fool them if they had their hair shaved.
"Then cut off your braids and pretend to be a lama." Huang Taiji said, "I will go to Zhangjiakou with Aohan Otok's caravan. When I get there, I will pretend to be a monk. I must sneak into Beijing and see with my own eyes the cavalry in front of the tent. What does it look like and report back.”
Yes, the Great Khan has already thought of a plan for Fan Wencheng!
Fan Wencheng had no choice but to kowtow and take over the job.
Huang Taiji smiled and said to Fan Wencheng: "Then you should go back first... don't leave right away, rest for a few days, wait until the first day of the first lunar month before leaving, and have a good intimacy with your mother-in-law. . I heard Duduo say that your newly married wife is a rare beauty!"
Hearing what Huang Taiji said, Fan Wencheng felt excited in his heart - Did the Great Khan fall in love with his mother-in-law? That is a great honor!
Fan Wencheng said with a smile on his face: "Great Khan, why don't I ask that woman to come to the palace to serve you..."
Huang Taiji laughed: "No, no need... I don't like this, so you can kneel down."
Fan Wencheng is a slave, and the slave's wife is of course a female slave. If the master wants to sleep with a female slave, it is of course an honor for the slave and the female slave. But Huang Taiji is a wise king! How could he compete with his little brother Duduo for a female slave? Can Mingjun do that? It can't be! Huang Taiji is a wise man who knows many Chinese characters. He recently got a "secret book" that teaches people how to be a wise man, and he is studying it! As mentioned above, Mingjun cannot snatch female slaves from his generals.
A little disappointed, Fan Wencheng had no choice but to kowtow to Huang Taiji, then stood up and walked backwards out of Huang Taiji's study, and went home to prepare for his long trip...
Watching Fan Wencheng leave, Huang Taiji secretly took out his "Secret Book of Mingjun", turned to the eighth chapter, and started studying.
The title of the eighth chapter of Mingjun's secret book is "Wang Situ cleverly used a series of tricks, and Dong Taishi made a big fuss in Fengyiting".
...
When Huang Taiji was studying the secret book of Mingjun and striving to become a good Mingjun of the Great Jin Kingdom, his opponent Zhu Youjian gave himself a big vacation and took his three wives - Empress Zhou, Concubine Tian, Concubine Yuan, and his wife Huang Taiji. Went up to Mao Wenlong, who stayed in Beijing for the New Year, and also called Yang Hao, Li Ruzhen, Hong Chengchou, Sun Zushou, Lu Xiangsheng, Chen Qiyu and others. Under the escort of a group of Wenhua Palace guards, they left Yongding Gate and went to Nanhaizi in the south of Beijing. My servant has given away New Year’s goods.
Don’t wealthy landlords also have to cut some pork during the Chinese New Year and pretend to pay New Year greetings to long-term workers and tenants?
Zhu Youjian is now a wise king. He can't be worse than a wealthy landlord, right? Besides, hadn't he already fished Li Chengliang's worthless son Li Ruzhen out of Jinyiwei Prison? This guy was the "housekeeper consultant" and taught Zhu Youjian how the old man used to support his housekeeper.
New Year's greetings to the servants, this is what Li Ruzhen taught Zhu Youjian - don't be afraid of trouble when trying to win people's hearts!
In addition to paying New Year greetings, Li Ruzhen also told Zhu Youjian that centralized residential areas must be built for his family members in Nanyuan, Dongyuan, and Beiyuan, and they could not be allowed to live in their own farm all the time. Because if the servants live too far apart, they will not be able to focus on training, and it will be difficult to supervise them. We must let them live under our noses!
In addition, the emperor's servants are all cavalry. Naturally, they must be equipped with good horses, not only ready-made war horses, but also stallions and mares for breeding and reproduction.
Horse breeding is both a business and a science.
Zhu Youjian remembered that Nizi had spent a lot of effort in this area, introducing improved breeds, formulating breeding methods, registering many stallions and mares, and establishing horse pedigrees.
However, Zhu Youjian had little interest in the subject of animal husbandry and did not study seriously. All I know is that we need to allocate some good horses to the servants who live in Nanyuan, Beiyuan, and Dongyuan so that they can raise them by themselves. We also need to prepare corresponding venues for them—because they raise horses from house to house, each family’s homestead is For more points, three large horse farms must be prepared for training warriors and war horses.
In addition to the above, Zhu Youjian also asked people to choose places to build forts at the Diaoyutai in the west of Beijing in Nanyuan, Dongyuan and Beiyuan.
It is planned to build a bastion around the city of Beijing as a stronghold on the outskirts of Beijing and as a camp for the young army.
Moreover, the construction schedule of the four forts outside the city is still very tight and must be completed before October of the second year of Chongzhen!
In the previous life, the changes that have already occurred began in October of the second year of Chongzhen...
In addition to the four forts outside the city, Zhu Youjian is also preparing to strengthen the defenses at each entrance of the Yanshan Great Wall. In particular, Longjing Pass, Da'ankou, Xifengkou, and Zunhua City... all need to be repaired, and the most capable generals must be sent to lead troops to defend them.
Zhu Youjian had already made up his mind. If the Donglu dared to attack the Great Wall again this time, they would never come back!
Of course, if you want to make Donglu have no return, you can't just rely on building the city wall. The key is to train your servants well!
"Long live my lord, my lord, my lord..."
An emperor's servant in his twenties was already crying with gratitude. In a barracks that originally belonged to the Nanhai Zijing Army, one hundred servants of the emperor and their families all looked like him... so touching!
Long live the Lord not only assigned them a farm and a homestead, but also built a house for them (the house has not yet been built). Now he personally comes to pay them New Year greetings and hand out New Year goods and red envelopes to them. Where can I find such a long live master?
Such great kindness and kindness can hardly be repaid by breaking one's body into pieces.
The servant named Huang Dali was holding a large piece of pork and a silver ingot that Zhu Youjian personally handed to him. He was already bursting into tears. While crying, he expressed his loyalty: "Long live the great kindness of my Lord, Huang Dali." From now on, my life belongs to Lord Long Live. I will fight with anyone who dares to oppose Lord Long Live..."
Zhu Youjian said in his heart: Okay, now that traitor will not dare to chase me with a sword!
Thinking of this, he patted the shoulder of the thick man kneeling on the ground, "Well done, you are our Ming Dynasty's Zhongliang... I will never let Zhongliang down! And I will never let you do this. Zhongliang will fight on his own, but I will fight with you!"
"I am willing to follow Your Majesty and be shattered into pieces without any hesitation!" Huang Dali shouted.
The servants and family members in the yard also shouted together. This scene was really exciting!
Let’s fight together!
Whether it is a Tatar, a bandit, or a traitor, anyone who dares to oppose Zhu Youjian and Zhu Damingjun must think carefully!
