After getting off the ground, he saw Qinglian and Litchi not waking up. Zhao Xuanyi walked out of the room quietly and came to the deck. Shen Wei and Qilin Guard were still guarding the deck before. Seeing Zhao Xuanyi coming, Shen Wei left in a hurry. Come here, "Young Master, you're awake!"
Zhao Xuanyi nodded, "How's it going? There's no surprise, right?"
"This...?" Shen Wei looked embarrassed, as if he had something to say!
"What's wrong? Something happened?" Zhao Xuanyi asked.
"Many brothers are from the north, so they don't know how to swim. Our big warships are okay, but those small warships are very unstable. Half of the brothers spent the whole night on the boat and kept vomiting when they woke up in the morning. They couldn't adapt!"
seasick? Zhao Xuanyi slapped his forehead, how could he forget such an important thing? I have always forgotten that they are pure northerners. Some of them have never been on a boat in their lives. The first time they took a boat was to sail such a long distance, so naturally they would not get used to it!
"Tell the brothers to be patient. They will probably be home early tomorrow morning. There is no other way now. Let them all be patient!"
"Yes!" Shen Wei nodded and said.
In the territory of the Ming Dynasty, nearly 200,000 troops were slowly marching forward in the Henan territory, and inside the team, in a very luxurious carriage, Zhu Tianyou was sitting in it with a proud look on his face!
At this moment, Qi Haobi came outside the carriage and said, "Father, we can obviously speed up, why do we have to go so slowly?"
"My son, the emperor is seriously ill at the moment. It's not like he has passed away. We went early, but the truth is that the best result is to go slowly. When we arrive in the capital, we will catch up with the bad news. Come, we can protect the capital, protect the royal family, and enter the capital smoothly!" Zhu Tianyou said with a scheming look on his face.
After hearing this, Qi Haobi nodded repeatedly, "My adoptive father's strategy is still good, and I admire him very much!"
"Go, tell the troops in front to repair where they are and spend the night here tonight. The scenery here is beautiful!"
"Yes!" Qi Haobi immediately ordered the troops to stop immediately! Set up camp!
Qi Haobi returned to her tent and saw Lin Min making tea. When she saw Qi Haobi coming back, she poured a cup of tea and put it on the table. Qi Haobi took it and took a sip, then put down the tea cup, "Husband, this time we are Helping my adoptive father win the world is his long-cherished wish in his life, but you don't seem happy?"
"We are just people who follow orders, what's there to be happy about?" Lin Min said softly.
"You... don't like this kind of life?"
Lin Min did not speak. Seeing that Qi Haobi's cup was empty, Lin Min poured another cup. Qi Haobi took Lin Min's hand and said, "Husband, if you don't like this kind of life, after we help my adoptive father take over the world, I will How about asking for orders, resigning, and returning to the countryside, where the two of us can live in a paradise together?"
When Lin Min heard this, she still had no expression on her face, "You are the head of the family, you can make the decision!"
Qi Haobi's heart hurt when she saw Lin Min's indifferent expression. Qi Haobi knew in her heart that although Lin Min was now his wife, she still missed Lu Pingping in her heart! But Qi Haobi had nothing to do about this!
In the palace, Zhu Yuejun was reading the memorial. Nan Zhu ran in quickly from outside, with a very ugly face: "Elder Princess, something happened!"
"Speak!" Zhu Yuejun said very calmly.
"Moon Guards have investigated and found out that King Yong'an has led an army of 200,000 people from Hangzhou and headed straight for the capital!"
After hearing this, Zhu Yuejun put down the memorial in his hand, his eyes full of anger, "Although we have already talked about it, I didn't expect it to happen so soon! It seems that the emperor's situation has been known to others!"
"Princess, what should we do now?"
"Don't panic. Zhao Xuanyi and the Crown Prince should be on their way back. Take the Qilin Order and go to the Qilin Camp immediately. Order all Qilin Guards and border guards to defend against King Yong'an's army if they unexpectedly find suitable defensive terrain in the capital. , we must persist until Zhao Xuanyi comes back!"
"But... they only have 20,000 people!" Nan Zhu said worriedly.
"Don't forget, one of them is the Qilin Guard. They can definitely defend it! They must defend it!" Kanshu La
"Yes!" Nanzhu nodded and said.
"What's going on with the other feudal lords?" Zhu Yuejun asked.
"There is no movement from King Yongle, and there is no sound from King Taikang. They are all calm!"
"Calm? How can there be peace at this time? They should still be doubting whether the emperor's illness is real, but it doesn't matter. As long as Zhao Xuanyi can bring the Qilin Guard back safely, we can rest easy!"
"Yes, today... I killed three more foreign maids and eunuchs!"
Zhu Yuejun sneered, "Now these people are trying to get people to infiltrate the Wanfu Palace. After all, they are not sure whether the news is true or false! Tell the guarding Qilin Guards to kill everyone on sight without mercy!"
"Princess!" Xilan ran in from outside in a panic.
"What's going on? Are you so panicked?"
"Wanfu Hall... At the entrance of Wanfu Hall, the queen is leading people to go in to visit the emperor. At this moment, the Qilin Guards are guarding the place, but they can no longer hold it!"
Zhu Yuejun threw the memorial on the table, "What a mess! Show off!"
"Yes!" Nanzhu shouted!
When Zhu Yuejun came to the door of Wanfu Hall, he saw the queen and a dozen of her maids and eunuchs who were all outside, but they were rejected! But the Qilin Guard in front of him was very strict and refused to let the Queen and others in! Seeing the angry expression on Zhang Huairu's face, I was very angry and nervous!
Nanzhu immediately shouted, "The eldest princess is here!"
Upon hearing the arrival of the eldest princess, everyone immediately knelt down and saluted Zhu Yuejun, "See you, eldest princess!"
After Zhu Yuejun came to the crowd, he looked at Zhang Huairu and bowed slightly, "See the Queen!"
When Zhang Huairu saw Zhu Yuejun, the anger on his face did not diminish at all: "Elder Princess, what is going on? I heard that the emperor was ill and came here to visit, but what is the meaning of these guards stopping here?"
Zhu Yuejun smiled, "Queen, don't worry too much. The emperor just felt cold occasionally. He needs to rest at the moment. He will be able to meet the queen after he recovers in a few days. The queen is so anxious to see the emperor, but what is there to be anxious about?" Zhu Yuejun asked with a smile.
"That's not true, but can't even I visit?"
"This...?" Zhu Yuejun thought to himself. The emperor's illness warrants a visit from the queen. If not, the queen would go in for a visit, and there would be a lot of rumors in the court!
"What did the queen say? We are just afraid that the emperor's brother's disease will be transmitted to the queen. If the queen is willing to go in, we can't say anything. But is the queen really not afraid of the risk of getting sick and visiting the emperor's brother?"
Zhang Huairu smiled, "I have been married to the emperor for many years, and we have never seen any big storms? It's just an illness. What's there to be afraid of?"
"That's it, let it go!" Zhu Yuejun said.
"Yes!" The eldest princess ordered, and the Qilin Guards naturally did not dare to stop them. They all hurriedly got out of the way, allowing Zhang Huairu to enter the Wanfu Hall to visit Zhu Chufeng, while other palace maids and accompanying eunuchs also entered the Wanfu Hall!
When Zhu Yuejun saw everyone who entered, his eyes immediately became extremely cold! He immediately gave the Qilin Guard on the side a look, and the Qilin Guard nodded slightly, and then followed him into the Hall of Wanfu!
As soon as they arrived in the courtyard of the main hall, all the Qilin guards pulled out the Ziwu Yuanyang Yue from their waists, rushed forward to grab the maids and eunuchs beside the queen, and pinned them all to the ground. The blade of the Ziwu Yuanyang Yue also touched the eunuchs. On the neck!
Zhang Huairu was so frightened by the scene in front of him that his eyes widened, and then he looked at Zhu Yuejun. Just as he was about to speak, he saw the Qilin Guard raise his knife and drop it. A burst of blood spattered, and all the palace maids and more than a dozen eunuchs were executed on the spot. kill!
When Zhang Huairu saw this scene, his eyes widened in fright. His mouth was so big that he couldn't speak a word.
Zhu Yuejun came to Zhang Huairu, who was still in shock: "Queen, since you must visit the patient, I have the only way. From this moment on, the Queen will not leave the Wanfu Hall, and you don't have to worry about things outside. There will be someone Tell the Queen’s righteousness,
The emperor was seriously ill, and the queen stayed with him at his bedside. This will surely become a legend through the ages! "
Zhang Huairu pointed at the corpses on the ground and asked with trembling hands, "This... eldest princess, what are you doing? Why did you kill my personal attendant for no reason?"
"The reason is very simple, because this is for the Ming Dynasty!" Zhu Yuejun said coldly, "Nanzhu, serve the Queen Mother into the palace to visit the emperor brother!"
"Yes!" Nan Zhu came to Zhang Huairu, "Queen, my maid will serve you into the palace!"
"This...?" Before Zhang Huairu understood what was going on, he was taken into the Wanfu Palace by Nan Zhu!
Zhu Yuejun breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the dozens of corpses on the ground, and then said, "Dispose of them secretly, these are the Queen's people. If anyone finds out, it will be troublesome!"
"Don't worry, eldest princess, there is a garden in the Wanfu Palace. We will bury the person first and make plans after the matter is over!"
"Very good!" Zhu Yuejun nodded.
In the Yongle Palace far away in Yunnan, Zhu Qing came to the garden and saw his father still pruning flowers with scissors. He asked softly, "Father, have you heard the news from the capital?"
Zhu Qicheng nodded, "I just heard about it!"
"I heard that King Yong'an has led an army to attack the capital. What should we do?"
Zhu Qicheng smiled, slowly put down the scissors, and turned to look at Zhu Qing. "Girl, what should I do if you interrupt me?"
"What should we do? Send troops immediately! If we go too late, we won't be able to catch anything by then!" Zhu Qing said.
"We haven't yet determined whether the matter is true or false, so why be so impatient?"
"What if it's true?"
"If it's true? It's not too late for us to strike before we can strike! From my perspective, King Yong'an is really crazy about wanting to take the throne. He has never thought about it. Even though he has a strong military force now, he is not the only one with military power in the Ming Dynasty. ? He is so impatient, can he really enter the capital smoothly? Are Li Yukun and Tang Wujie really just watching?"
Zhu Qing thought carefully, "Now King Yong'an has an army of more than 200,000! Moreover, Zhao Xuanyi and Qilin Guard are not in the Ming Dynasty now, and the border guards and the Far East Army may not know the situation in the capital at this moment. Even if they know, it is probably because It’s too late!”
"And our home is too far away from entering the city at this location. If we attack from behind, I'm afraid it won't be as fast as King Yong'an!"
Zhu Qicheng turned to look at his girl, "Then what are you going to do?"
"Send troops now!"
"What's the reason?"
"We will wait and see what happens. If King Yong'an captures the capital, we will be like sparrows. If Li Yukun or Tang Wujie really arrives with people, then we can use the name of escort to deal with King Yong'an together. We will talk about what happens next, at least We won't suffer any loss no matter how hard we fight, after all, it was King Yong'an who made the first move!" Zhu Qing said with confidence on his face.
Zhu Qicheng walked slowly on the chair, calmly picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, and then looked at Zhu Qing? "If the emperor is not seriously ill, but is seriously ill, how will we respond to everything after King Yong'an is eliminated? ?」
"Response to everything? Respond to what?"
"How many troops do we have at the moment?"
"One hundred and ten thousand!" Zhu Qing replied immediately!
"Where did these 110,000 troops come from?"
"Of course...?" Zhu Qing said while suddenly closing his mouth. At this moment, Zhu Qing realized that he was wrong, very wrong, because he had always ignored one thing, that is, he had forgotten that these ten Ten thousand soldiers and horses are private soldiers!
A prince secretly raised 110,000 private soldiers. This is no different from rebellion! Even if the rescue was successful, the hiding of private soldiers would not be justified. The best outcome for him would be to be punished!
When Zhu Qicheng saw that his girl was silent, he smiled and said, "Understood? To put it more bluntly, our soldiers are only for one thing from the beginning of training, so your so-called escort does not exist at all. Girl, you are still too young! Get off!"
"Yes!" Zhu Qing then realized that he thought
It's too simple, but according to his father's words, King Yong'an is leading a heavy army to march towards the capital at this moment, which means that no matter what, the rebellion of King Yong'an is firmly established!
At this moment, Zhu Qing realized that this was what happened, but... there is another question. The person guarding the capital is Zhao Xuanyi. If he knew that King Yong'an had rebelled, where is he now?
