The so-called concept of national heroes can be more convenient in this dynasty, because the Zhu Ming Dynasty overthrew the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty, expelled the Tartars, and restored China. This is a real thing.
Zhu Houzhao gained a little bit, so he pretended in his heart that he just had this idea, and the details had to be written by Wang Hao and the great scholars in the Ministry of Rites.
Then his eyes turned towards Wang Zhi...
If the deceased Wang Yue is posthumously granted the title, he can actually be promoted to the title of Marquis of Weining.
Since he came to the throne, many honorable ministers have fallen. He cannot offend this group to death. For very loyal ministers like Wei Ningbo and Wang Xuan, he can still be rewarded. This will also let other honorable ministers see how How to please him as the emperor.
"... Uncle Wei Ning could not have been involved in the court. In fact, many of the great ministers of the Ming Dynasty do not often appear in front of my eyes. Was it your idea that he suddenly entered the palace that day?"
Wang Zhi is a young girl. Her face is tender and white, and her long off-white dress is full of a refined temperament. People often say that you can only look at it from a distance and not play with it. A woman with such an appearance is also from a distinguished family, that is, Zhu Houzhao, Most men would feel ashamed if they saw it.
"Half and half. Although my brother is stupid, he is sincere. People often say that filial piety comes first. First, you have filial piety to your grandfather, and then you want to inherit your grandfather's mantle and serve your Majesty. So my brother often thinks about setting up a good foundation for your Majesty. One or two credits.”
"Having such a heart is already better than many people. So the remaining half is you?"
Wang Zhi nodded lightly, "When I was still young, I heard my grandfather talk about His Majesty, and his words were full of praise and admiration. In addition, I have been studying since I was a child, and I often admired the heroes of ancient times. I responded to Li Qingzhao's words and still think of Xiang Yu. He refused to cross the Yangtze River' famous saying. Therefore, I admire His Majesty in my heart."
Zhu Houzhao asked: "Although you are a girl, you have the heart of a man, and you seem to have a lot of ink. Since I have nothing to do today, I will ask for advice. According to you, is there anything urgently needed by the court at the moment?"
Wang Zhi felt even more surprised. Since ancient times, how could any emperor ask a woman for advice?
How did she know that in Zhu Houzhao's concept, there is no such thing as a man or woman who is smarter. Some women have very high IQs, but you can’t accept it.
"What's wrong?" Zhu Hou looked at her and looked up, seeming a little confused.
"No, no. Your Majesty, forgive me."
"Forgive me for any sins. Don't forgive me every day. Although I am sometimes harsh, I am not a devil. This is not the Fengtian Palace. You can say whatever you want.
My ministers always speak and listen at the same time to understand. But they don't know that as the emperor, sometimes it's difficult to think and listen at the same time. Many people think twice about what they say to me, and sometimes I don't know which words are true and which are false.
But you are different from them. You are not an official in the court, and I believe in your loyalty, so you can say whatever you want today. "
This is Wang Zhi's first time talking to the emperor. In the past, he just heard about it and didn't realize it. Now it seems that the emperor is full of wisdom, otherwise he would not be able to say this.
"Your Majesty, I am just a female prostitute. Although the imperial court newspaper and Ming Pao will take a good look at it, it is difficult to say accurately about national affairs. Just like your majesty said, if there is anything, say what you say."
"That's it."
"The little girl just heard from my brother last month that His Majesty issued an edict in the imperial newspaper. The imperial court and the Tatars have entered into a national war and will never end. The Tatars will definitely invade the border this year. Has your Majesty ever thought that the little Tatar prince will start from now on? Where to attack?"
Zhu Houzhao shook his head, "The northern border of the Ming Dynasty is thousands of miles long. Even if there is the Great Wall, the Tatars still have several places to go south. This is not easy to guess."
"It's actually easy to guess. It's Datong."
Zhu Houzhao thought he heard it wrong, and he couldn't help laughing. If he hadn't heard repeatedly that this woman had some talents, he would have thought that this woman was probably crazy.
"What are you talking about? Hit Datong? Can he get in? How can anyone choose the hardest place to hit? Isn't this asking for death?"
Wang Zhi was not in a hurry. She finally raised her gaze, but her dark pupils were clear, "If I were a little Tatar prince, I know that the Emperor of Ming Dynasty is a brave and courageous king, so he will definitely make the Datong army march north from the Great Wall to destroy me. Nest, kill my child. At the same time, the governors of the three sides will be ordered to strengthen the guards on each side, build castles, train soldiers, and even set up an ambush waiting for me somewhere.
But at this time, Datong has sent out all its elite troops and its troops are empty. Why can't they send troops here? sure! Moreover, if you catch him by surprise and attack him unprepared, you will definitely defeat him in a single battle. Although there is a distance of 800 miles between Datong and the capital, there is no fortress to defend. Then I divided my troops and went straight to the capital. The capital must be severely shaken. Leave the main force halfway and wait for the rabbit. "
“Sit back and wait??”
Drooping black hair and thin lips, but the words she spoke were extremely powerful, "The capital was surrounded. Commander Zhou knew that there was an ambush ahead, so he had no choice but to die, and he must have rushed all the way to help. At that time, the elite troops were the tired ones. And I was waiting for work, how could I not win? As long as Zhou Shangwen's troops were wiped out, the rest of the infantry would be helpless against me. They could not fight in the field or pursue pursuits, and I would be free to come and go. At that time, Bringing cattle, sheep and horses out of the customs, even those two right-wing Mongolian households have no courage to submit to the Ming Dynasty."
Gudong.
Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but swallowed. The entire court was indeed arranging for Zhou Shangwen to attack the Tatars' lair in order to threaten his rear.
But if the little Tatar prince attacks according to this method, then Ming's rear will be threatened.
As an emperor, he is still a bit tough in dealing with some gentry. Now that he has the army and the court, there will be no problem. But if the capital is in danger, there is no telling what monsters and monsters will appear.
Da da da.
Zhu Houzhao kept tapping his palms with the fan in his hand. He thought about these words carefully, and then he could only admit generously, "I know it today, and the little girl's knowledge is also amazing. Fortunately, you are not in the Tatar army."
Wang Zhi did not dare to take credit, "Your Majesty has given you too much praise. I have a pure mind and am not disturbed by other things on weekdays, so I can calmly think about it. With your Majesty's ability, I can think of it with just a little thought."
"No, I didn't think about this at all. It's what it is. I'm the emperor, but the emperor doesn't think everything through, so he needs ministers. What the ministers thought of, I didn't expect, and I'm calm. Yes, this does not make me ashamed. On the contrary, if you have to pretend to be smart when you are clearly not smart, that is the behavior of a fool."
After hearing this, Wang Zhi couldn't help but take another high look at the emperor. The momentum of his speech was broad and open, and he was not shy at all. He was indeed a good man.
Looking at her second brother, he usually doesn't dare to make any decisions. He worries about saying something wrong. There is nothing masculine about his soft and waxy appearance.
So she said sincerely, "Your Majesty is wise."
"It won't be too late to say this after we defeat the little Tartar prince. Since you have concluded this, do we have any way to deal with it?"
Wang Zhi pursed her lips and said, "Time is still short. I...didn't expect it. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
If you want to stop the Tatars from playing this style of play, then Datong's soldiers should not move, but if they don't move the Tatars' nest, wouldn't that give them too much advantage? And overall it seems very passive.
"Okay. It's not easy to think of this. It's hard for you." Zhu Houzhao stood up and waved to Liu Jin.
The old eunuch trotted over immediately, "Your Majesty, what are your orders?"
"Let's arrange a place. I don't want to go back to the palace tonight."
Liu Jin's expression changed, and she looked a little mournful, "Your Majesty, the outside of the palace is not as good as the palace, so spending the night is still..."
"Follow the orders and don't talk so much nonsense. Go quickly. Also, you should restrain the people brought down by Dongchang. If there is anyone who disturbs the people, watch your skin carefully."
"Yes, I will make arrangements right away."
After finishing his instructions, Zhu Houzhao walked out of the pavilion, and others came to greet him.
"Uncle Weining. I have just discussed with your sister to choose a place to build a martial arts temple. Your grandfather's tablet should be listed among it."
"Martial Arts Temple?"
Xu Guan, a warrior, became interested.
Zhu Houzhao also felt it and jokingly said: "Commander Xu is still a little behind. He hasn't killed enough foreign enemies."
The crowd burst into laughter, and then the laughter gradually faded away with the many figures.
…
"Your Majesty, why did you suddenly think of Jianwu Temple? Who is worshiped in this Temple of Martial Arts?"
This is what Xu Guan asked.
Bo Weining guessed, "Probably he must be a great hero like King Zhongshan."
"You don't have to be such a big hero. I think that even a hundred households are heroes as long as they fight against foreign enemies."
