At the fifth watch of the next day, Zhu Qiyu opened his eyes, looked at the beauty in his arms on the left, and then looked at the beauty in his arms on the right, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.
Unexpectedly, Lin Xiangyu woke up early. She stood up immediately and asked with a smile: "His Highness shook his head and smiled bitterly. Is it because you think the slave family is not serving you well?"
"No, no, last night two girls slept together, it was truly the most wonderful enjoyment in life.
I just feel that there are too many women in our family. If this continues, how will I be able to cope with it? Let's stop sending some women out. "
Lin Xiangyu said angrily: "If you want to send His Highness yourself, I will never do such an offending thing for you again. Xian'er got up quickly, it's time to serve Your Highness and go out to cry."
"Don't say it so harshly. What do you mean by going out and crying? I am trying to conquer the world for your son.
I am a slave owner and I work hard for slaves like you every day, but you still taunt me at every turn. It is really unreasonable. "
Hearing this, Lin Xiangyu leaned on Zhu Qiyu and said with a smile: "The slave family will comfort the master once more, and then serve His Highness when he goes out."
…
After struggling for another half an hour, Zhu Qiyu was fully dressed and took Lin Xiangyu to the front yard. Liu Chang was already waiting here with one hundred and twenty guards.
Zhu Qiyu sat on a chair and watched Lin Xiangyu hand out rewards. Based on the consideration of buying horse bones for thousands of gold, Liu Chang was the first person willing to kill for Zhu Qiyu, and Lin Xiangyu gave three thousand taels in one breath.
Other general flag officers and minor flag officers each receive one thousand taels, and ordinary soldiers receive three hundred taels each.
After distributing the money, Lin Xiangyu asked everyone to move the money back to their respective rooms and put it away. When everyone dispersed, Zhu Qiyu asked with some pain: "Zi'er, with your enthusiasm for making money, we must have spent 400,000 taels in just these two days, right?"
Lin Xiangyu replied: "If you include the money prepared for the eight thousand personal guards outside the city, it is indeed almost 400,000 taels. The slave family thinks that His Highness wants people's hearts instead of being a miser, so they spend the money so lavishly. If His Highness If you’re not satisfied, I’ll just save some flowers.”
Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "You did the right thing, what's the use of being a miser. You left 300,000 taels of silver and 100,000 taels of gold for us to build Prince Qi's Mansion. You can spend the rest as you like, I don't care."
Lin Xiangyu smiled and said, "Okay, your highness plans to have forty or fifty sons. When you get back, I will buy you another hundred stunning concubines."
When Zhu Qiyu heard this, he was so frightened that he ran away. Just as Liu Chang and other personal guards came back, Zhu Qiyu took them and ran to the Chengguo Palace without looking back.
There were no disturbances in Chengguo Gongfu and Taininghou Mansion until they came to Xininghou Mansion.
This Xining Marquis Mansion is so interesting. A large sect lost its title and a small sect inherited it.
The elder brother Song Hu married Princess Ancheng, the legitimate daughter of Zhu Di, and the younger brother Song Ying also married Princess Xianning, the legitimate daughter of Zhu Di. The two were both brothers and brothers-in-law. Both of them were consorts, and both became Marquis of Xining one after another.
When Zhu Qiyu arrived at Xininghou's Mansion, the main door of Xining Hou's Mansion was wide open, and everyone in the Hou's Mansion was already waiting outside.
Before Zhu Qiyu could approach, the leading old lady knelt down and cried: "My concubine, Mrs. Liu, has met Your Highness. Your Highness, my Marquis has been wronged."
As soon as he heard that it was Mrs. Liu, Zhu Qiyu knew that she was the personal maid of the eldest princess of Xianning. Later, when Princess Xianning married Song Ying, the Marquis of Xining, Mrs. Liu became Song Ying's concubine.
Zhu Qiyu hurriedly helped Mrs. Liu up in person, and said with tears: "My aunt, my condolences. I also know that the battle at Yanghekou was not the fault of the Ming Dynasty soldiers. My aunt believes in me. Within five years, I will take you with you first." I will personally pay homage to the old marquis and the dead Ming soldiers."
After that, Zhu Qiyu went to help Song Ying's sons: "Uncles, please get up quickly. Please express your condolences."
Zhu Qiyu helped Mr. Liu enter the mourning hall, and kowtowed in front of the memorial tablet of the Marquis of Xining. Both parties cried again before they came to sit down in the main hall.
As soon as she sat down, Mrs. Liu said eagerly: "Your Highness, the old Marquis has five sons, and they are all here. Please take them to the battlefield. We, the sons of the Song family, are willing to die to serve the country and avenge our previous shame." .”
When Zhu Qiyu heard this, he was silent and murmured in his heart: "Although there are finally some nobles who are willing to kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds, this is a good thing.
But the eldest princess of Xianning is my biological aunt after all. How could she send all five of her sons to the battlefield at once? People who don’t know may think I’m really crazy.
If I am not careful and two or three more people die on the battlefield, I will not be criticized as autistic by the nobles. "
When Song Ying's sons saw that Zhu Qiyu was silent, they knelt down to petition. Zhu Qiyu quickly stopped and said, "Okay, since these uncles are willing to serve the country, come with me to guard Fuchengmen. Then I will also I will stay on the front line of the city, and a few uncles will just follow me.
The memorial for the uncle to inherit the title has been submitted and will be available in a few days. Everyone rested at home for a few days, and when King Qin's army arrived, they began to reorganize the army and assign tasks to defend the city. "
After hearing this, the Song family members were satisfied. He also expressed his gratitude to Zhu Qiyu for his arrival. Zhu Qiyu comforted Mr. Liu for a long time before leaving.
One morning, Zhu Qiyu cried three times in a row at the Chengguogong Mansion, the Taining Marquis Mansion, and the Xining Marquis Mansion, and he was already feeling groggy. It was not until almost noon that we finally arrived at Zhenyuan Hou Mansion.
The Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion did not expect that Zhu Qiyu would come, so it closed the door tightly in broad daylight. The front door was deserted, and it could be said that there were no visitors.
When Zhu Qiyu saw this, he smiled and said, "It's sunny and sunny. What's going on? Liu Chang, send someone up to call the door and open it."
After a long while, the main entrance of Zhenyuan Marquis' Mansion was opened. Gu Xingzu, the Marquis of Zhenyuan, ran out anxiously. As soon as they met, he knelt on the ground, hugging Zhu Qiyu's thigh and cried.
Zhu Qiyu quickly advised: "Marquis Zhenyuan, don't cry, get up quickly. I have been crying all morning, and now my head is dizzy from crying. Please stop shaking me."
After hearing this, Gu Xingzu stopped abruptly and personally led Zhu Qiyu into the main hall and sat down on the main seat.
Zhu Qiyu said with a smile: "Marquis Zhenyuan, you are the only one who was lucky enough to escape from the front line with His Majesty on the expedition. Now there must be many people of all ages impeaching you."
Gu Xingzu could only kowtow and shout: "I am guilty, I am guilty, please give me death, Your Highness."
Zhu Qiyu laughed when he heard this and said, "Liu Chang, give the sword to Marquis Zhenyuan."
When Liu Chang heard this, he handed over the knife.
Gu Xingzu didn't dare to actually pick it up, so he could only smile awkwardly.
Zhu Qiyu then continued: "Okay, don't talk about living or dying, these vain people. Now that you are almost dead, I don't want to kill you anymore.
If you are willing to defend the capital and go into battle to kill the enemy, I will protect you. If you are still thinking about escaping from the battlefield, then you are really hopeless. I can't care whether the civil and military officials of the DPRK will tear you alive when the time comes. "
After Gu Xingzu heard this, he quickly expressed his position: "I am willing to make meritorious service and kill the enemy to serve the country."
Zhu Qiyu nodded: "You should prepare at home. The tasks will be assigned in a few days. I will take you and the new Marquis of Xining to garrison Fuchengmen.
Now you tell me in detail what happened on the front line. I want to know what happened on the front line? "
Gu Xingzu raised his head in surprise: "What exactly does Your Highness want to know?"
Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "What did you come here to do? Why didn't you attack the capital after the Tumubao war ended, but instead wandered around Xuanfu and Datong? Why did you just let our King Qin's army advance like this? Beijing?
Since the Ming army in Tumubao was completely surrounded first, how did the more than two thousand kitchen servants of Guanglu Temple come back in full force?
What happened to Yanghekou's defeat? Why was the 40,000-strong army of the Marquis of Xining suddenly wiped out? When the Yanghekou defeat occurred, Wang Zhen was still in the Forbidden City. Wang Zhen can no longer be blamed for this. I want to know what intelligence the Ministry of War relied on to order the Marquis of Xining to go out of the city to meet the enemy?
What was the reason why the Xuanfu and Datong garrison did not discover the ambush in the direction of Yanghekou? "
