Chapter 1462: Eat More, Talk Less (Thanks to "Tangled Subtitle Brother" For Being the 62nd Leader of This Book)
Then Zhu Di asked about the Tatar Ministry, said a few words of consolation, and then asked people to take Atai to look around the Xuan Mansion. Fast updates and no ads.
As the most important border town of Ming Dynasty, Xuan Mansion kept all facilities confidential, especially the storage and military barracks.
But today Zhu Di actually let go of Ah Tai, this trust made Ah Tai's eyes red, and he swore immediately.
"Your Majesty, from the beginning of this minister, all descendants and grandchildren are members of Ming Dynasty. If there is any rebellion, I would rather the whole family not be reincarnated, and become lonely ghosts forever!"
This oath is very vicious, and under the background of today's era, it almost means to give up.
Zhu Di was very satisfied, nodded slightly, and Atai went out happily.
Zhu Di's gaze followed Ah Tai until he disappeared, and then he said with a straight face, "Why didn't you persuade Chen Mao?"
As the only general who had dealt with the Harlees, Fang Xing should be the most experienced. But he actually let the striker go to meet the Harleys. Could there be some unknown little dirty in this?
For example... mutual rivalry or something!
Yang Rong and Yang Shiqi smiled at each other. They were happy to see the internal strife between warriors.
Let's make a fuss, make a fuss, if there are too many fuss, the warrior's reputation for being vulgar and disregarding the overall situation will become louder, and then the wind will stink.
Fang Xing said with a smile: "It was Ning Yanghou who wanted to beat those arrogant soldiers, so he asked the minister to send someone to protect him, and the loss was not big. When the minister came out, Ning Yanghou was cleaning up those generals who made mistakes. I can't get out of bed."
Zhu Di snorted coldly: "Those people felt that they were invincible since the last Northern Expedition defeated Alutai. I wanted them to go out to investigate and suffer a big loss, but unfortunately it was you who broke it in the end. My business."
What a cruel old Zhu!
Are you not proud? Okay, I want you to be strikers. If you play well, I'll see if you can't play well? hehe!
But aren't you afraid that their entire army will be wiped out?
Fang Xing endured this question and did not dare to ask, and waited for Zhu Di's face to turn pale before he said: "Your Majesty, those people are a little depressed, and Ning Yanghou is trying to find a way to boost morale!"
From being the proud son of heaven to being knocked into the dust, this kind of gap is unbearable for ordinary people.
Zhang Fu smoothed things over and said: "Your Majesty, the Harlei people have fled. I don't know if it will affect their marching plan. I think this is the time to temper the soldiers and stand ready for death."
Zhu Di nodded and said: "The scouts are sent out intensively to investigate, and once they find the Harlei army, they will report back immediately."
Then it was Zhu Di's time to deal with political affairs, and the Wu Xun all dispersed.
Fang Xing and Zhang Fu went out side by side, and went to Zhang Fu's residence.
As a general of the Chinese army, Zhang Fu's residence is next door to the big courtyard, and he is guaranteed to be there whenever he is called.
The two entered the small courtyard, and when they saw Zhang Qi, Fang Xing nodded, and said, "Brother also brought out the whole family this time!"
Zhang Fu said with a smile: "They have been aggrieved for several years, this time they can be regarded as going out to kill people, to relax, and they have been aggrieved for many years when they turn around."
The meaning of these words is very rich. Fang Xing smiled, and after entering the narrow front hall, he said: "The imperial doctor said that your majesty can live another twenty years. If you don't say twenty years, I only hope that your majesty can live again." If you live ten years, Daming will definitely be different."
Zhang Fu frowned and said, "Your Majesty's body looks a little heavy, and his energy is not as good as before..."
Fang Xing nodded and said: "Your Majesty is not in good health after two serious illnesses, and needs to be recuperated... It's just that this Northern Expedition is helpless!"
An emperor of Zhu Di's age usually takes care of himself in the palace, but he is a good old man, he will toss about every three days, and if there is a foreign enemy, he will personally conscript him. No matter how good his body is, he can't stand the toss!
The two were silent for a while, Zhang Fu asked about the situation ahead, and then about the Harlei people, and then explained: "You are a rising star, and the veterans in the army don't accept you, so don't talk to you at night, just eat Just drink."
Fang Xing lowered his eyes and nodded, "The Firearms Guardhouse originally existed alone.
As time goes by, there will naturally be estrangements with other troops. I am prepared for this, but... the younger brother thinks that it is not wise to retreat to the net and stare at the younger brother blindly. "
Zhang Fu's eyes darkened, and he sighed softly: "After that incident, the crown prince has not been deposed, Dehua, some people are moved."
Fang Xing smiled slightly, and said: "People's hearts are inherently complicated. It's human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Most people like to follow the herd, because this way the risk is the least, but they don't know that the risk is often hidden in the seemingly calm and innocent place. Under the lake surface of the wave, just wait for the time to sweep away those wall plants."
Zhang Fu shook his head, and said helplessly: "Everyone has a big family and a big business, and most of them think about their own family first. This is the big trend!"
"People are not for themselves, heaven and earth are destroyed, what my younger brother understands is that you have to keep more publicity, so that you can be worthy of your title and salary."
After Fang Xing finished speaking, Zhang Fu got up and said, "Okay, I understand, don't talk to those people tonight."
...
Even though it was in the Xuan Mansion, with Guo Yi's cooperation, the dinner was still very impressive, only the eunuchs and maids who served the food were missing.
The candles were not very good, they were emitting black smoke, but they were good enough, and they illuminated the hall brightly, as if it were daytime.
There were not enough seats in the lobby, so there was a table for two people, and Fang Xing happened to be sitting with Liu Sheng, so it was appropriate.
Zhu Di above is giving an impassioned speech, which is probably how the family of the Tatar tribe surrendered to Ming Dynasty, and everyone will join hands to walk on the road of Kangzhuang and so on.
Fang Xing took a glance, and most of the faces he saw were smiling, but a little stiff.
Wu Xun who can fight is extremely impatient with such occasions, and the most peaceful people here are probably Zhang Fu and Zhu Yong. The two princes listened with gusto, and nodded slightly from time to time, as if they were drinking fine nectar.
Liu Sheng also had a smile on his face, opened his mouth slightly, and said in a low voice: "This time you killed Tuo Huan and defeated the Wara Department, but you made a big splash!"
Fang Xing lowered his eyes and said: "Showing the limelight is not what people like me should do, but... state affairs are the most important thing, if someone doesn't know this, then I think His Majesty will give him a chance to learn."
After Zhu Di said something, he nodded, and the eunuch went out for a while, and then some sergeants came in with food boxes.
Here, mutton is the main food, and vegetables are invisible.
However, the imperial chef's preparations were of course extraordinary, and Atai couldn't help admiring the plate after plate of dishes: "Your Majesty, this is the food that Shang Kingdom should have!"
Yang Rong smiled slightly, and said: "He Ning Wang praised it. There are not many ingredients in Xuanfu, so I just made some at will. If it comes to the capital, it will be delicious food."
Atai nodded and said: "The minister is looking forward to Daming's defeat of the Halie people as soon as possible, and then returns to Beijing with His Majesty, so that he can enjoy some legendary delicacies."
Zhu Di raised his glass with a smile and said, "Okay, and after defeating the Halie people, you will follow me to Beijing."
The ministers toasted one after another, and the dinner began.
After drinking for three rounds, Yang Rong took the lead in toasting Zhu Di for his birthday, and then the officials followed up one by one.
Seeing this, the eunuch quietly went over to change Zhu Di's jug, and after pouring Zhu Di's wine, the scent immediately came out.
Zhu Di was startled, then took a sip calmly, and immediately recognized the origin of the wine.
Fang Xing smiled when he saw Zhu Di looking at him from below.
This stick has added water to the wine! At least half the increase!
