Yu Mian is stupid and not good at words. At this time, he doesn't know what to say to persuade his father not to go out. He hesitates and fails to explain clearly.
Zhu Ji looked at his brother-in-law's performance and knew in his heart that if he could persuade his father-in-law, the sow would be able to climb the tree tomorrow.
And Zhu Ji also knew the environment there and the road conditions.
My father-in-law is already so old. If he wants to go there, will his body be able to handle it?
Immediately, he asked his wife to persuade Yu Qian.
But Yu Qian's character is difficult to change once he makes a decision.
Looking at his wife, his brother-in-law couldn't persuade Yu Qian. Zhu Ji could only analyze the situation for Yu Qian from the perspective of the court.
By going to the southwest, you are discrediting the Ming Dynasty and making His Majesty's face look disgraceful, and His Majesty will not allow you to go so far.
I don’t realize that spring is already deep when I am studying. Every inch of time is worth every inch of money. Traveling so far away and wasting time on meaningless things will never give you the pleasure of enjoying family happiness at home.
Zhu Ji originally wanted to use the emperor's reputation to pressure Yu Qian into giving up the idea, but as soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Youde rushed to the old house with Sun Zan...
But after Sun Zan expressed his intention to come.
Zhu Ji, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, had nothing to say.
Yu Qian is going to the three southwestern provinces and to Jiaozhou City, Annan.
His biggest purpose was to see what the place where Ming Dynasty failed during the Xuande period looked like.
He also wanted to know why His Majesty was so obsessed with Annan Jiaozhou.
Moreover, along the way, he passed through Huguang and Jiangxi, where he once worked, and finally arrived at Zhennanguan, Guangxi, where he could experience the customs and customs of the border area.
This journey should be very exciting.
Yu Qian didn't delay long. He had very little luggage, only one baggage, and was about to leave in two days.
Sun Zan fulfilled the tasks assigned to him by the emperor very responsibly.
When he heard the dissuasion from Yu Taibao's family, he immediately reprimanded him.
There are not many opportunities to travel at public expense, and there are not many opportunities to protect the Taibao alone. Sun Zan must firmly grasp it in his hands and not let him run away.
Zhu Ji thought a lot, and in the past two days, he was busy hiring a doctor with excellent medical skills in the local area for his father-in-law, who had participated in the Kaifeng Medical Exchange Conference, to accompany his father-in-law on this long trip.
When the doctor first heard that he wanted to go on a far journey, he sternly refused. But when he heard that he would go on a far trip with Yu Taibao, the doctor immediately agreed.
This is a convenience brought by the brilliance of a personality...
When Yu Qian left Qiantang, his family members were in tears. However, Zhou Youde, the county magistrate of Qiantang, was in a good mood, but he couldn't show it casually. He could only pretend to be very sad, trying to get along with Yu Qian. Family members empathize.
Yu Qian was riding the carriage left by Cao Jixiang.
The doctor carrying the medicine box was also riding in a carriage.
A group of thirty-two people headed southwest of the Ming Dynasty...
Outside Zhennanguan, under a relatively steep mountain wall, there is a solitary grave.
The soil is new soil, and the coffin inside is also new.
This tomb belongs to Shi Heng.
He did not erect a monument or describe his achievements.
In several small earthen bags next to this solitary grave, buried were the clan girls that Shi Heng brought from Jiaozhou.
Just after the burial, Shi Biao once visited here to see the Ming Dynasty here and Jiaozhou over there. I think his uncle must have liked this place very much.
The scenery here is beautiful, and there are no other underground household owners as neighbors within a few miles, which allows Shi Heng to enjoy his own tranquility, and of course, the desolation.
No matter what kind of hero he is, he will have this experience. Life and death are the fairest things.
Shi Biao led hundreds of soldiers from Zhennanguan into Annan.
Shi Biao took over all the power from his uncle, raised the banner, and rushed to Jiaozhou City with great fanfare.
Along the way, Shi Biao stopped and walked.
The half-month journey took more than two months.
Because almost all the generals here knew that they had killed their uncle, and Shi Heng's old cronies needed Shi Biao to appease him.
Along the way, Shi Biao transferred two generals and asked them to return to Zhennanguan without any soldiers, because these two people were very dissatisfied with Shi Biao's actions and could not accept the fact that Shi Heng had been killed. .
Shi Biao showed no mercy to these old acquaintances and drove them away without asking directly.
Mu Zan, the deputy general, and Han Yong, the minister of war, had no way to do this.
But Shi Biao could do it without any scruples.
Along the way, Shi Biao also inspected every city occupied by the Ming Dynasty, as well as many transportation arteries that were being repaired.
Only by closely connecting with the Ming Dynasty, Annan would not be able to rebel against autonomy.
Observing the city, roads, and terrain was also a process of Shi Biao's initial understanding of Annan.
After Shi Biao arrived in Jiaozhou City, he met Han Yong and Mu Zan.
Although the two of them worked hard on Shi Heng before, they were very enthusiastic when receiving Shi Biao now.
Mu Zan even handed over all military affairs to Shi Biao.
These include the map of Annan's northern garrison and the Ming army's attack plan against the south.
Han Yong also handed over the collected Shi Heng military seal to Shi Biao.
Everyone seemed to have discussed Shi Heng's matter in advance and avoided talking about it.
After Shi Biao arrived in Jiaozhou City, he regarded the former Annan Xungui Ruan Mansion as his general's mansion.
As for the palace where his uncle lived, Shi Biao didn't dare to enter even one step...
After Shi Biao arrived in Jiaozhou, the first thing he dealt with was the surrender mentioned by the surrender envoy sent by the southern puppet court.
This envoy had arrived in Jiaozhou City for more than half a month. Han Yong felt that accepting their surrender still required Shi Biao's presence, so he was delayed for a while.
The small court in Qinghua still represents the orthodoxy of Annan. The nobles in the south will put their family's power entirely on their small court, hoping to rely on the small court to resist the Ming army.
In fact, accepting the puppet surrender is both a good thing and a bad thing.
After the puppet government surrendered, the tens of thousands of regular soldiers in their hands could be at the mercy of the Ming army, and no major changes would occur. This was a benefit to the Ming army.
But after the surrender of the Puppet Dynasty, the gentry south of Qinghua in Annan will lose a backbone. They can be broken into pieces and start to resist the Ming Dynasty in remote places. The Ming army wants to solve the opposition forces in one go. The main force just can't do anything.
After Shi Biao arrived in Jiaozhou City, he discussed with Han Yong and others what to do about this matter.
Han Yong was more inclined to accept the surrender of the puppet DPRK.
As long as the puppet surrender is accepted, the local cleanup can be carried out steadily. However, the surrender cannot be accepted so quickly. It will take two or three years for the Ming army to pacify the north. Only when the main force is sent south can the puppet government declare that they are surrendering and no longer resisting.
Mu Zan also agreed with Han Yong.
Shi Biao had just arrived and didn't know much about the situation. Of course, he couldn't directly reject the two people's proposals, so he could only agree.
