Zhu Yuanzhang was furious and the courtiers knelt down one after another.
"Your Majesty, calm down."
Hu Weiyong straightened up and said worriedly: "Your Majesty, the strength of the Tatar cavalry is well known to the whole court. Now that our country and the Tatars are completely at odds, I am afraid that the Tatars will not give up easily. The border... I am afraid that the war will rekindle. .”
"It's going to burn, we're still afraid of him!"
Ever since he knew that Chuze had been kidnapped, he knew that there was no possibility of good relations with the Tatars.
When these envoys come, they are destined to die.
Zhu Yuanzhang turned around twice on the throne angrily and said coldly: "Xuan Lanyu!"
Hu Weiyong was secretly surprised, but he didn't dare to say anything.
He never expected that Chu Ze's status in the emperor's heart would be so important.
Not only did he order the second prince to personally lead the Jin Yiwei to pursue him, but he also killed all the Tatar princes and princesses. Now he even killed the other party's envoys and even wanted to declare Lan Yu.
Lan Yu is a marquis, but he no longer goes to court during normal times.
Now that he is announced, it seems that the outcome of this battle has been decided.
He had underestimated the weight of Chu Ze.
After receiving the imperial edict, Lan Yu immediately changed into court clothes and hurriedly followed the chamberlain into the palace.
He quickly walked up to Fengtian Hall and knelt down: "I, Lan Yu, meet the emperor."
"Lanyu, I order you to immediately lead the troops to the northern border to fully resist the Tatar invasion and counterattack. Remember, this battle is related to the national prestige of our Ming Dynasty. Once the war starts, we can only win but not lose. Lan Yu, you understand. "
Lan Yu leaned over and said, "I accept the order."
"Well, go ahead. When you leave, remember to take those heads with you as a greeting gift to the Tatars."
Lan Yu retreated in response.
Hu Weiyong looked at Lan Yu's leaving figure and became more determined to get Chu Ze into his camp.
After Zhu Yuanzhang ordered Lan Yu, he left the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Household Affairs and Hu Weiyong to arrange for the supply of grain and other military supplies.
After Chu Ze received the news that Lan Yu was about to go on an expedition, the man who had been ill for a long time also walked out of his mansion today.
Lan Ruoyan looked at Lan Yu worriedly: "Dad, you have to be more careful when you go."
Lan Yu patted Lan Ruoyan's shoulder lovingly and smiled heartily: "Don't worry, who is your father? He is rolling around on the battlefield every day, and those Tatars still want to hurt me? Let them dream .”
The more Lan Yu behaves like this, the more worried Lan Ruoyan becomes.
It is said that a good rider will become a good traveler, so she was afraid that Lan Yu would be too confident and become careless.
She pulled Lan Yu and warned her for a while.
Lan Yu's ears were almost numb, but she still answered every sentence.
Who let this be his baby daughter.
He just looked like he had a headache.
Chu Ze sat at the stone table, drinking tea and watching.
He is not worried about Lan Yu's strength.
According to historical records, Lan Yu was the most courageous general in the Ming Dynasty.
He was also the one who drove Bei Yuan away.
The Tatars are not as powerful as Bei Yuan, so there is almost no suspense in this battle.
Chu Ze was worried about something else.
After Lan Ruoyan had finished speaking, Chu Ze said to Lan Yu: "Father-in-law, this time when you lead troops on an expedition, in addition to taking care of yourself, you must also restrain your temper and don't get angry at everything. Even if you encounter If something unsatisfactory happens, take it slow and don't rush forward too quickly."
If something happens, even if the emperor doesn't do anything to him now, he will keep it in his heart.
If anything happens in the future, it will inevitably be settled by the queen.
Lan Yu always listened to Chu Ze's words.
At this time, Chu Ze's tone was so serious, and Lan Yu naturally took it even more seriously.
When Chu Ze finished speaking, he nodded happily: "Don't worry, we know what we know. Come on, this matter is urgent. The emperor asked us to leave immediately. Let's pack up our things and go to Tartar now. Boy, wait, my father-in-law is here Next time I go, I will beat the Tatars to pieces and avenge you."
Chu Ze suddenly smiled.
"Okay, I will wait for my father-in-law's triumphant return in Yingtian."
"Well, when we come back, we can have a drink with you."
Lan Yu set off in a hurry. After taking a few pieces of clothing, she immediately left the city to join the army.
Chu Ze stood with Lan Ruoyan on the city wall, watching Lan Yu go further and further away.
Until it is completely invisible.
The tears that Lan Ruoyan had been holding back fell down.
Chu Ze kept comforting him.
When everyone calmed down a little, Chu Ze heard Lan Ruoyan's choked voice, sobbing: "Brother Chu Ze, you said that daddy will come back safely, right?"
"Yes, my father-in-law will definitely return safely. And he will be victorious."
I don't know if Lan Ruoyan really believed it, but her tears actually stopped slowly.
She looked at the direction Lan Yu was leaving and said firmly: "Yes, daddy is a famous general in our court, and he will definitely return victoriously."
It's been more than a month since Lan Yu left.
Lan Ruoyan didn't say anything on the surface, but actually she was very worried in her heart.
In the past few days, Chu Ze's health has improved and he has become busy.
It was a rare day of free time. As soon as I walked into the yard, I saw Lan Ruoyan sitting alone in the yard, with a sad look on her face.
It made Chu Ze feel distressed.
He turned around and walked to sit next to Lan Ruoyan.
"Are you still worried about your father-in-law?"
Lan Ruoyan turned her head and looked at Chu Ze and sighed: "It's been so long. It stands to reason that dad has arrived at the border long ago. Why doesn't he even have a letter?"
It’s okay if there is no letter. To this day, I haven’t even heard the good news.
How could this stop her from worrying?
Lan Ruoyan's brows tightened.
Chu Ze had no doubt that if he gave her a pair of wings now, she would definitely fly to the border immediately.
Looking at the worried people, Chu Ze comforted him: "Don't worry, don't you understand what my father-in-law is capable of? The good news is definitely on the way. If you wait patiently, it might arrive in two days."
Instead of worrying about whether Lan Yu could win the fight, Chu Ze was more worried about his father-in-law causing trouble.
Lan Yu is indeed a good hand in leading troops in war.
Just by looking at his name, you can tell how good this man is at leading troops.
But this guy, all his IQ is focused on arranging troops, and he has not improved at all in other areas, and even reversed.
When his head gets hot, he doesn't call them enemies, he even beats his own people.
Typically when I go crazy I even kill myself.
Chu Ze remembered that this was what was recorded in the history books.
Lan Yu fought a victorious battle and returned to the court, but due to some communication problems, the city defenders did not open the door for him. Lan Yu, who was so mad, pulled his troops and directly attacked his country's city.
Zhu Yuanzhang found out about this later and scolded him.
Although Zhu Yuanzhang didn't pay much attention to him at the time, Lan Yu was killed later, and Chu Ze felt that there was some reason for this.
It is not impossible for a lunatic general like this to become insane on the battlefield one day and contact the enemy to attack his country.
Rather than leaving such a restless hidden danger, it would be better to kill him.
This was also the reason why he had been persuading Lan Yu to calm down before setting off for the expedition.
But the country is easy to change and the nature is hard to change.
Chu Ze was not sure whether Lan Yu would listen.
If this person gets more aggressive and starts messing around at the border, it will really be a headache.
