When Zhu Qiyu heard this, he glanced at He Yi in surprise, then smiled bitterly and said: "Luoyang, Nanyang, Xiangyang, Yueyang, why are there so many yangs.
It was such a coincidence that King Xiang happened to be between Xiangyang and Yueyang, so he could run into the rebel army.
You don’t want to say that both King Xiang and Xiangyang have the character Xiang, but there is God’s will in it.
Just like Pang Tong of the Three Kingdoms, he was named "Feng Chu" and was buried in Luofengpo. "
Seeing that the emperor did not take his words seriously, He Yi continued to insist: "Huguang's military strength is now extremely empty. Uncle Jing Yuan left 50,000 new troops in Xiangyang, while his own 100,000 main troops fled to Guilin inexplicably. , wanting to invade Guiyang by surprise from the direction of Guilin.
As a result, the area between Xiangyang and Changsha has become completely undefended.
Although there is a local garrison, His Majesty also knows clearly what the strength of the Ming garrison troops is after the three battles of Yanghekou, Yaoerling and Tumubao in Shanxi. "
Zhu Qiyu shook his head and continued to ask: "So what, even if Prince Xiang and the Miao army collide head-on, those Miao people dare to kill the prince?"
He Yi replied firmly: "The Han people certainly dare not kill the prince, but the Miao people may not. Especially since the Miao people just lost hundreds of thousands of people in the battle, who knows if they will lose their minds?"
Besides, the Miao people are not afraid of the consequences of killing the prince at all. As long as they hide in the mountainous areas and rely on those deep mountains, old forests, and cliffs, even if all the Ming army is sent there, the Miao people will not be able to completely wipe them out.
And if it really comes to the point of fighting to the death, the losses suffered by Ming Dynasty will definitely be even more unbearable. I'm afraid that in the final outcome, Ming Dynasty will still compromise and change to appeasement. "
Zhu Qiyu patted He Yi on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Xingyi, if you don't learn the good things about Guo Jia, you can learn his great dancing skills.
Back then, Guo Jia insisted on predicting that Sun Ce, the little overlord of Jiangdong, would be assassinated by an assassin in a short time. Now you insist on predicting that King Xiang will be killed by the Miao people.
Okay, anyway, it's too late to send people to protect King Xiang now, let's just wait and see.
Let’s see if your dancing master can be as successful as Guo Jia. "
He Yi nodded and continued to ask: "What if the minister is unfortunately right? How does Your Majesty plan to deal with it?"
Zhu Qiyu replied: "If this is really unfortunate, then I can only punish myself twice. Well, you don't have to worry. Soldiers will block it, water will cover it, and that's what happens in the south. No matter what happens, I will Can bear it.
I have to go back and do my business, so you can just keep an eye on me here. "
He Yi said no more and could only let the emperor leave.
Zhu Qiyu returned to his room, and his beloved concubines quickly gathered around to serve him. Ningxiang asked with a smile: "Husband, do you want to continue fishing?"
Zhu Qiyu replied angrily: "Humph, why are you still fishing? Now the civil servants and generals in the south have started to use me as a fish to catch.
Quickly help me take off my clothes, and then go get the map. I want to take a closer look. "
He Yi's unreasonable prediction that day brought new ideas to Zhu Qiyu. Although he said he didn't believe it, Zhu Qiyu didn't really treat He Yi as a dancing master.
Ningxiang took the map from the bookshelf and laid it on the jade table. Zhu Qiyu came closer and stared at the map for a full meal.
Seeing Zhu Qiyu's strange behavior, Lin Xiangyu, Qianxue, and Su Xi also came over and asked curiously: "What's wrong, husband? Why are you suddenly interested in maps?"
Zhu Qiyu pointed to Xiangyang on the map and then to Yueyang: "The Ming army and the Miao army fought a battle, and each side suffered 100,000 damage.
Now that the Miao army has rushed into this area, the defense here is empty, and the Miao army seems to be in a deserted land.
Xingyi predicted that when King Xiang returned to Changsha, if he happened to pass through this place, something might happen. "
Qianxue heard the words and replied: "It's really possible. After King Xiang left the capital, he didn't take the canal, but went south by land. When the group passed through Baoding, we sent a message to King Xiang's concubine.
It is said that King Xiang planned to enter Huguang via Luoyang and Nanyang in Henan, then from Xiangyang to Yueyang, cross the Yangtze River from Yueyang, and finally reach Changsha.
After finally getting out, King Xiang was going to take his newly acquired beauties to travel around the mountains and have a good time. "
Zhu Qiyu was even more surprised when he heard this: "King Xiang is really following the route drawn for him by Xingyi, so why didn't you tell him earlier?"
Qianxue helplessly replied: "At that time, we all felt that this matter was not important, and since my husband was in high spirits, we did not dare to bother you with this matter."
"Well, it's okay, don't cry, don't cry, I'm not blaming you. Okay, whatever, if there is no news, let's just pretend that nothing happened to him.
Let's get down to business and give birth to a bunch of princes as soon as possible so that our cronies can feel at ease.
Otherwise, everyone would be worried and the situation would always look weird. "
After hearing this, the beloved concubines hurriedly gathered Zhu Qiyu and Lin Xiangyu to the bedside.
Zhu Qiyu lay on the bed and asked, "Aren't you angry that I'm being monopolized by Zhu'er and I have to let her get pregnant first?"
Ningxiang replied on behalf of the sisters: "Don't be angry, we are where we are today because of my sister fighting for us. Now it is right for my sister to be the first to give birth.
But how long will it take for my sister to get pregnant? What should I do if I cannot get pregnant within a short period of time? "
Zhu Qiyu smiled and imparted knowledge to the girls: "Women, you have a chance to get pregnant once a month. Nowadays, Mei'er does not care about worldly affairs, feels happy and carefree, and recharges her energy all day long. Three or Five Months, it should be blooming and bearing fruit anyway. Then it will be your turn.
It would be best to give birth to a few princes before the palace examination next year. In this way, people's hearts can be stabilized. If we select a new group of civil servants of our own, the government and our lives can be completely stabilized.
At that time, I can consider taking back the Supreme Emperor. "
Qianxue asked from the side: "What if my sister gave birth to a daughter?"
Zhu Qiyu replied nonchalantly: "It would be nice to have a daughter. If our family didn't really have a throne to inherit, I would actually prefer a daughter.
You don't have to be impatient, don't feel pressured, just take your time and give birth to three or four children each, as long as you have children.
Xuanzong gave birth to two sons, so he lived the same life. "
Ningxiang asked again: "Is it because Xuanzong is very partial, that's why your husband is so estranged from him?"
Zhu Qiyu shook his head: "That's not true. Although Xuanzong did treat me extremely badly, I was reduced to the point where I didn't even have a wet nurse, and I was worse than a slightly respectable silly young master from a landlord's family.
But I don't really care about this. The most important thing is that the emperor Xuanzong is really disgusting. When I think about the bad things he did, I want to vomit.
It would be good if you are willing to call him Xuanzong. I really want to call him Zhu Cricket, and then call his son Zhu Mingmen.
One is Zhu Cricket and the other is Zhu Jingmen. One of these two men has no political ambitions and is laying minefields for the Ming Dynasty every day. The other one has the world in mind and really wants to make a difference. Unfortunately, he has great ambitions and lacks talent, so he lays all the minefields that Xuanzong has laid. It exploded.
Originally, I could play with women comfortably at home, but now, I have to wipe the butts of these men every day. I was being polite by not cursing them openly. You still want me to treat Xuanzong as my biological father, but that's it. "
