Qi Jiguang went to Beijing to receive a reward and was granted the title of Anbo. Yang Bo objected in the palace, but Zhang Juzheng told the truth about whether it was about deeds or heart. The dispute in the court had just come to an end, and the urgent report came into Fengtian Palace. Zhang Juzheng made a note Black Tiger struck the Jin party in the heart and asked the censor to go to Datong, Xuanfu, to inspect the construction of the Great Wall of Border Defense.
At this time, Ge Shouli's attitude became particularly important. The emperor asked Ge Shouli who should be sent.
Ge Shouli came out of the queue, bowed his head and said, "I think it is appropriate for the military department to give Li Le to the minister."
Li Le was a Jinshi in the fifth year of Longqing. That year Zhang Juzheng was in charge of the examination. This meaning is very clear. If the chief assistant wants to investigate, then arrange for the chief assistant to go there.
As soon as the name Li Le came out, Zhang Juzheng was stunned for a moment. Has Ge Shouli finally figured it out? He is from Shandong and hangs out with people from Shanxi every day. He regards the Jin Party as one of their own, but the Jin Party never regards him as one of their own.
Ge Shouli was not hopeless.
Zhu Yijun didn't know who Li Le was, but looking at Zhang Juzheng's surprise, Wang Chonggu's astonishment, Yang Bo's mixed emotions, and the confused expressions of the officials, he more or less understood that this Li Le was probably Zhang Juzheng's.
Zhu Yijun thought for a while and said: "In this case, the matter will be left to Mr. Yuan Fu. I am young and virtuous, and I rely on the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs at home and abroad."
"I accept the order." Zhang Juzheng obeyed the leader's order.
Zhu Yijun smiled but did not answer. He stood up, shook his sleeves and said, "Qi Shuai, come with me."
As soon as the little emperor finished speaking, Feng Bao shouted loudly: "Retreat!"
"I respectfully send you off to Your Majesty." The ministers greeted each other again, and the Ming Dynasty finally changed.
Qi Jiguang came to the martial arts room under the leadership of Xiao Huangmen. The little emperor changed into martial arts uniforms and started daily martial arts training with his sparring partners.
Today, the Fengtian Palace meeting was held. Zhu Yijun stopped giving banquets for a day. He was the emperor, and no one dared to ask him to take a break. However, he did not stop practicing martial arts for a day.
"Tishuai trained with the "New Book of Ji Xiao" and "Records of Military Training", which were written by Qi Shuai. Whether the training is correct or not, please ask Qi Shuai to correct him." Zhu Yijun began to practice martial arts.
As soon as Zhu Xixiao heard this, the fire in his heart was aroused again! He knew that the little emperor was making trouble, but he was still angry!
very angry!
Who are you looking down on?
Qi Jiguang watched for a long time, then asked in a low voice next to Zhu Xixiao with a complex expression: "Is Tishuai always so bold?"
This is the emperor!
Marshal Fusiti of the Ming Dynasty Jin Yiwei North Town actually dared to train the young emperor so cruelly. This is no longer an ordinary act of daring!
"Your Majesty requested it himself. He has not stopped for more than a month." Zhu Xixiao said with a complex expression. He was not trained harshly, and the little emperor was not happy. He changed the method of Gonghuo and opened his mouth to make people angry. , this time, Zhu Xixiao had nothing to do, and the emperor's order could not be violated.
"Your Majesty has great perseverance!" Qi Jiguang was one of the most famous military strategists in the Ming Dynasty. He knew that the most important thing about martial arts is perseverance. Of course, it also requires innateness. Some people are born with heart diseases and cannot do strenuous activities, so naturally they have no chance of practicing martial arts. .
After Zhu Yijun warmed up, he started to stand, and not long after, he started running back and forth at sprint speed. The benefits of the stable bottom body were very obvious. The center of gravity kept changing during the sprinting back and forth. Because of the stability of the bottom wall, his movements It became very smooth, even a little smooth.
After a month of intense training, the originally chubby little emperor finally lost five pounds. This was mainly because the emperor did not control his diet. The emperor's main purpose was not to lose weight, but to maintain physical fitness and become a person. Soldiers are trained.
Qi Jiguang has big shoulders, a round waist and thick arms, and a general's belly is thicker than a bucket. He often eats and sleeps in the open during battles. Sometimes he cannot eat well for three to five days. Fat is his fighting strength. Otherwise, he will not be able to pick up a knife when he encounters the enemy, and he will not be able to fight.
Zhu Yijun finally finished training his physical strength. With the sword, Sheren, Xunwei and Xiaohuangmen began to play Cuju. There were only rules and no skills in kicking. It was a physical confrontation.
"Your Majesty." Seeing that the little emperor had finished training, Qi Jiguang and Zhu Xixiao hurried to greet him.
"Qi Shuai." Zhu Yijun put on a square towel and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He was sweating profusely and his heartbeat was beating like a drum. He gurgled down a bowl of warm rock sugar pear water that had been dried.
Zhu Yijun looked at Zhu Xixiao on the side and asked, "Has Tishuai trained carefully?"
"Your Majesty is still young, and it's a bit too hard." Qi Jiguang spoke with a worldly manner, praising the young emperor for his extraordinary perseverance and being able to endure such hardships; he also praised Tishuai for his hard work, obviously very attentive, and answered perfectly. Your Majesty's question.
"Thank you, Tishuai." Upon hearing this, Zhu Yijun bowed to Zhu Xixiao as a disciple.
Zhang Juzheng gave a banquet, and Zhu Yijun also performed discipleship ceremony in this way. Under the strict etiquette, bowing one's body is already a great respect. Who makes Zhu Yijun's most important identity besides being a ten-year-old child is that of the emperor.
"I'm so ashamed of myself." Zhu Xixiao hurriedly returned the gift. Every time His Majesty bowed, Zhu Xixiao was a little flattered. Although it had been more than a month, Tishuai was still not used to the emperor respecting warriors so much.
What did Qi Jiguang see?
He saw the respect the Ming Emperor had for warriors!
This raised some undue expectations in his heart, that is, there would be an emperor who paid attention to military affairs in the future, but he quickly wiped out this expectation.
Qi Jiguang is forty-four years old and has passed his forties. He has experienced a lot and has no doubts about life. He should not have this expectation, so he should not ask for it. He has experienced too many times. of disappointment.
There are many disappointments. In the battle of Cengang, he had expected that the court would give him 500 more troops to attack Cengang, but he was dismissed by the court and made meritorious service. In Taizhou, he repelled the Japanese pirates, but he failed. During the incident, Luo Jingbin was impeached for raising the bandits' self-respect; in Shangfangchao, he hoped that there would be reinforcements, but there were no reinforcements, so he had to fight to the death; in Fujian, he defeated sixty battalions in one night, and the southeast was stable in the first battle, just because Fuqing led troops If you rush to attack, you will be impeached to attack without authorization; in Xinghua, Pinghai, Xianyou, and Meiling, you will be disappointed too many times, and you will become willing.
Qi Jiguang was not without temper. He was humiliated by a hundred households in front of his face. The reason why he did not pursue the matter was because he did not want to cause trouble.
A victorious military general who killed enemies like a fool has become so sleek and sophisticated. Is it Qi Jiguang's nature, or is it the sorrow of the Ming Dynasty?
Qi Jiguang did not have too many extravagant aspirations. No matter whether he was building the Great Wall or doing anything else, as long as he continued to lead troops and fight, would he be willing to be forced to live idle like Yu Dayou?
Qi Jiguang had really given up for a long time.
Zhu Yijun looked at Qi Jiguang. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, stood up straight, and said solemnly: "Qi Jiguang, I will give you 200,000 soldiers and horses, and give you ten years. If you can train an army to destroy Anda Khan’s army?”
"A warrior with a strong sword and an iron horse can swallow up the anger of a tiger thousands of miles away."
"No need to answer, just look at me."
Zhu Yijun's tone was extremely gentle. He was not asking Qi Jiguang to issue a military order, nor was he asking Qi Jiguang to make a promise. He was making a promise. He was promising the treatment that Qi Jiguang should receive, and what the emperor wanted was: to wash away the humiliation!
The barbarians and their horses were drinking in the suburbs, and the smell of killings was heard in the city gates!
He begged for help with threats of troops, but I responded with deception!
Wouldn't it be humiliating to accept the money from the city's alliance?
What a shame!
The fire in Qi Jiguang's heart was immediately ignited, and the slightest expectation that he shouldn't have became stronger and clearer!
He can, he absolutely can!
He knows his talent, and he knows how dazzling his military talent is!
When he was eighteen years old, he saw the Japanese pirates burning, killing, looting and committing all kinds of crimes. They were determined to kill the thieves, but they had no generals to control and no troops to use. He wrote: "The clouds protect the toothpicks, and the stars contain swords." The title of marquis is not my intention, but I hope the sea will Wave flat!
When he was forty-four years old, the young emperor asked him if he could pacify the Northern invaders with an army of 200,000 in ten years! Can you fight like an iron horse and swallow thousands of miles like a tiger?
He knew he could, absolutely could.
"Your Majesty..." Qi Jiguang's eyes were extremely firm. He stood up straight and decided to answer the little emperor's question.
"No, I said, you don't need to answer, I already know the answer." Zhu Yijun saw something, he saw the strong and almost substantive unwillingness in Qi Jiguang's eyes, the kind of talent that was met but could not be used. Not willing to accept it, the kind of unwillingness to treat it like a wart and just keep spreading it!
He is unwilling to accept that he is superfluous and useless. He knows that he is not. That is a kind of unwillingness that is so strong that it is painful!
A smile appeared at the corner of Zhu Yijun's mouth, and soon the smile slowly melted away and turned into a bright and cheerful smile.
"I promise you, Qi Jiguang, the sharpest sword in the Ming Dynasty. I will not let you wait too long until it is finally unsheathed." Zhu Yijun interrupted Qi Jiguang. He did not need Qi Jiguang's promise. He was treating the emperor as the emperor. promise in the name of.
"I obey the decree!" Qi Jiguang bowed and saluted very respectfully. He heard the certainty in the little emperor's voice. He knew that the little emperor was not joking, let alone someone else teaching him, but His Majesty the Emperor was making a promise.
Maybe, maybe, probably, should, maybe the Ming Dynasty will really have that day, the day when the Ming Dynasty army will show its might!
Qi Jiguang bowed his head and smiled bitterly. He didn't know why he suddenly had such a strong ambition in his 40s. He was looking forward to the day when the Ming army would be able to swallow up thousands of miles like a tiger. He was looking forward to the Ming army being so powerful!
Zhu Yijun smiled and said, "Let's meet the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces."
"I am a foreign minister, so this is inconvenient." Qi Jiguang quickly replied. It was against the rules for a foreign minister to see the harem, even Empress Dowager Li, who exercised imperial power on behalf of the emperor.
"Shuai Qi is now Qian'an Bo, an earl, and a distinguished minister. How can he be called a foreign minister?" Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "Shuai Ti can meet the Queen Mother, and so can Shuai Qi."
"If a foreign minister makes a comment, he doesn't understand the rules."
Qi Jiguang finally realized that he was already a martial artist and had a title. Having a title meant that his wife would have a royal title. This was a status.
He was not used to this change of status. Zhu Xixiao came from Chengguo Duke's mansion and was also a martial artist.
Etiquette was strict, and the queen mothers of the two palaces did not cause trouble for Qi Jiguang. Instead, they lowered the curtains in full view of the public, so that no gossip would spread, so it was not considered a meeting with the queen mother.
"Mother, mother." Zhu Yijun bowed as a salute.
Empress Dowager Li already knew about the Fengtian Palace. She said solemnly: "Qi Shuai has already served as a martial artist. I'm afraid it's inappropriate to worship him at the Quanchu Guild Hall again."
