Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 263
Although spring has begun in the south, the temperature is not so high in places like Liaodong.

Wei Guogong Xu Da is wearing a golden armor and a scarlet cloak. This young general looks vigorous.He has a bit of the demeanor of Xu Da, the king of Zhongshan, with few words but deep thoughts, and he is good at comforting soldiers and sharing weal and woe with his subordinates.

Li Jinglong rode over, looked at Xu Huizu and said, "Duke Wei, the luggage is ready."

"Cao Guogong, the three armies will go ahead without using food and grass." Xu Huizu said with a serious expression, "This time the army is going out, the food, grass, supplies and other matters are entrusted to you."

Xu Huizu will lead the army to go out, but Li Jinglong will become the commander of the rear army, responsible for food and grass, etc.This is not an easy task, this is not a position without authority and military merit, and he is not left idle.

Looking at Xu Huizu's cloak, Li Jinglong said with a smile, "But it was sent by His Royal Highness the Queen?"

"His Royal Highness sent Jin Yiwei to send it, presumably it was delivered along with some military affairs." Xu Da laughed, and said with some self-confidence, "Although Your Highness is busy with palace affairs, he still misses my brother who is worthless. His Royal Highness also The golden armor is sent, and I dare not refuse to accept it."

Looking at Xu Huizu's 'outfit', Li Jinglong still felt a little envious when he said it. This outfit is a royal gift.

The golden helmet and armor are not something ordinary people can wear.The cloak given by the queen, and the armor sent by the prince.The precious sword hanging from his waist is even the royal sword bestowed by His Majesty the Emperor, which is beyond the luxury of ordinary generals who command troops.

Xu Huizu looked at Li Jinglong, and said, "Jiujiang, neither of us should laugh at each other. We are all descendants of nobles, and we are all foreign relatives."

The silver helmet on Li Jinglong's body was left by his father Li Wenzhong.Moreover, the cloak on Li Jinglong's body looks a bit worn out, but it was all given to Li Jinglong by the former Empress Ma.

Xu Huizu is the eldest son of Zhongshan King Xu Da, the eldest uncle of the prince, and the elder brother of the queen.Li Jinglong is the son of King Qiyang, the grandnephew of the Supreme Emperor Zhu and the former Empress Ma.

These two people are the second and third generations of officials at the top of Ming Dynasty, and they are also the top relatives of Ming Dynasty.

Xu Huizu seemed to remember something, and said to Li Jinglong, "The mines and grenades sent by His Majesty are very useful, so be careful to send them in time. You and I know this battle well."

Both Xu Huizu and Li Jinglong knew that Daming needed to continue to weaken and consume the Tatar regimes.These are actually the congratulatory gifts sent by Daming for the new emperor's enthronement, so there must be no difference in this battle.

Furthermore, the Academy of Engineering has always been led by His Majesty the Emperor himself, and has been continuously investing in human and material resources over the years.The Ministry of Engineering also has some output, but these outputs also need output and need to have more proof of record.

Li Jinglong understands these principles, and Xu Huizu naturally understands these principles too.In this battle, they must win beautifully, and they need to make the achievements of the Ministry of Engineering look extremely brilliant in this battle.

The top honors and relatives are all gearing up at this time.They don't just fight for themselves, they also need to fight for their 'relatives'.

Li Jinglong is Zhu Yunying's cousin, this is Zhu Yunying's cousin, they are a family.And Xu Huizu is even more "tasked", he is the eldest brother of the empress of the dynasty, and he is the uncle of the prince of the Ming Dynasty.

At this moment, Sapphire's expression was extremely serious. Standing on the commanding platform in armor, Sapphire drew out his sword and mercilessly cut off several Tatar flags for sacrifice.As Chang Yuchun's brother-in-law, Lan Yu has always been so domineering.

As the emperor's "uncle and grandpa", Lan Yu felt that she had to do some things beautifully.He was indeed afraid of Lao Zhu, he regarded the son left behind by his niece as extremely important.

The emperor's grandson became the emperor, not to mention that the emperor's grandson had won him a 'heir' for Lan Yu before, which made Lan Yu even more grateful to Dade.After all, his daughter is the princess of Shu, and the descendants of the princess of Shu are naturally surnamed Zhu.But in this one breath, Lan Yu won a grandson. Lan Yu was very excited, and some of his Duke Liang's title had been passed on.

You must become the number one general in today's world, and you cannot let the up-and-coming Xu Huizu steal the limelight.The most important thing is that Xu Huizu is the eldest brother of the queen and the uncle of the prince. Those people must be facing the queen and the prince, and they are not the closest to the emperor.

What's more, there is Fu Youde. This guy can be regarded as the same generation as Lan Yu.Sapphire doesn't want to be replaced, he feels that he is inherently close to Jinshang, and he must become Jinshang's banner in the military.

"Father Commander, Your Majesty sent someone to send the military report." Fu Rang, who had a silver helmet and silver armor, sneaked into the tent of the Chinese army, and bowed on one knee with a serious expression, "I have a lot of soldiers in the middle of this battle, so I must take the biggest one. Military merit!"

Fu Youde, a burly man, took the military newspaper and clasped his fists towards the north, "For his father's family who have been farmers for generations and lived in poverty, he went to the Red Scarf Army for his father, followed Li Xixi into Guanzhong, and returned to Ming Yuzhen. He was not reused by Ming Yuzhen. , then Chen Youliang murdered Zhao Pusheng and Xu Shouhui, and then defected to the Supreme Emperor for his father. He was greatly favored by the Supreme Emperor, and he made great achievements for his father. Now the eldest son, Princess Shang, and the third son have served in the emperor's army!"

Fu Rang and You Rongyan, his father has become one of the most valued military commanders in the world.The elder brother is the captain-in-law, and the second elder brother is adopted by the second uncle who has no incense.He is the Supreme Emperor's pro-army, and he is also the commander of the present pro-army.

Such trust made Fu Rang extremely excited and proud, and naturally he needed to fight this battle even more.This is Jinshang's first battle after ascension to the throne, and there must be no mistakes in this battle.

The three-way army is about to launch, and the army can be regarded as imminent, and preparations for this matter have long been made.

Zhu Yunying may not know this at this time, he just needs to wait for the army to move out.The most important thing is that now he is waiting for the victory to be conveyed. He only needs to determine some general strategic goals, and he must not interfere too much with the specific process.

There is no one in the palace, the emperor's grandfather has returned to his hometown, his wife and children have followed him, and now Zhu Yunying is "king and hegemony" in the palace, and the current Ming Dynasty seems to let him, the emperor, be the master. .

This is not a bad thing, Zhu Yunying is quite satisfied with many things.

This is not a bad thing, Zhu Yunying, sitting high on the dragon chair, listened to many civil and military officials discussing political affairs, and was also making some decisions.

Regarding the matter of Yan Shenggong, there are indeed some discussions now, and there are indeed many people discussing these matters nowadays.Duke Yansheng's title, Duke Yansheng's inheritance, all of these are constantly being discussed.

Whether to allow Kong Na's lineage to return the real Duke of Yansheng to the real direct lineage, or to allow Kong Na's lineage to continue to pass on, there are still many quarrels. This matter is still being discussed.

The courtiers were constantly discussing, but Zhu Yunying would not say anything if the quarrel was not particularly intense.Or seeing that the tone of the discussion is going in a direction that is not conducive to his expectations, Zhu Yunying naturally adjusts the direction of some discussions decisively.

In fact, at this time, many people also understood that the current emperor definitely wanted to cut off Yan Shenggong, at least he wanted to get rid of Kong Na's lineage.Let Yan Shenggong return to the true lineage of Kong Shengren, this is the current emperor's mind.

There seems to be no harm in this way, and it is also in line with some practices that seem to be in line with today's universal values.

Ren Hengtai, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, stood up again, and said with a serious expression, "Your Majesty Qizuo, Duke Yan Sheng is a descendant of Confucius Sheng, and Duke Yan Sheng should have been the title of the eldest son and grandson of Kong Sheng's lineage. It is unbelievable to believe that those who inherit the title in the name of the descendants will think darkly."

This completely ignited a series of discussions in the court, because it seemed that everyone was serious and really wanted to completely abolish Kong Na, Duke Yan.

Lian Zining also stood up at this time, and said with a serious expression, "Your Majesty, Kong Zhu's resignation is not justified. Under Meng Yuan's threat, Kong Zhu had to give way to the eldest son of Qufu. Now chasing Tracing back to the source is also appropriate to set things right."

Ren Hengtai, who has always wanted to continue working in the Ministry of Rites, or Lian Zining, the cheap father-in-law of the current emperor, these two important court officials have stepped forward. Signal.

Zhu Yunying can be said to be calm, there is no need to express his attitude immediately at this time, he needs the water to be a little more muddy, and everyone must discuss this matter.

Kong Na is definitely not the only one who is worried. He doesn't have much interest in reciting poems right now, and he doesn't even have much interest in studying the method of writing and engraving seal script, because the title of Lord Yansheng is likely to be taken from him. Li flew away.

He is now the head of the Confucian family in name, he is the most powerful person in Qufu, and he is also the 'head of civil servants' in Ming Dynasty.But all of this is about to be lost. It is very likely that his lineage will become an ordinary member of the Kong clan.

At this time, Ru Yu, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, also said, "Your Majesty, the evaluations of Qufu county magistrates by the ministers over the past years are mostly middle and low evaluations."

This also caused a lot of discussion. The title of Lord Yansheng is indeed honorable, but many people actually understand that this title is just noble, and there is no such thing as real power.

However, the county magistrate of Qufu has always been occupied by the Kong family. Many people are Juren, Yin officials, and even some people who have no fame in the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties can become the county magistrate of Qufu only by virtue of the recommendation of the Kong family. This seems a little interesting.

Yang Jing from the Ministry of Punishment also continued at this time, "In the records of the Ministry of Punishment over the years, Qufu County has always been stable. The county magistrate of Qufu has always been lenient towards the Kong clan."

It's not that the wall has been pushed down by everyone, but that after the previous warm-up and a lot of small characters have stepped forward, now there are too many heavyweight tasks to stand up, especially the important court officials, one by one. They are all the confidantes of the current emperor.

This is the real moment of decisive battle. At this time, everyone also understands the inheritance of the title of Lord Yansheng, and it will soon become clear.

Zhu Yunying remained calm, but his expression was more serious, "Although Qufu is the hometown of Confucius, it is also the birthplace of the Yellow Emperor and the former capital of Shennong. The Confucius family in Qufu should not act like this."

Zhu Yunying, with a more serious expression, continued, "It's just that the Kong family is a descendant of Kong Sheng after all, and should not be offended. It should be handed over to the three divisions for a joint trial. If there is any corruption and violation of the law, it will be dealt with according to law. The prince's crime is the same as that of the common people, let alone the descendants of Kong Sheng. "

Although Zhu Yunying seemed to be giving Kong Sheng face, everyone also understood that the current emperor was planning to make these things a complete mess.It is obviously not going to be easy for the three divisions to directly review the county magistrate of Qufu.

In the final analysis, the Kong family is in Qufu, absolutely not so honest, it is simply their family, they are not only dignitaries in Qufu, it can even be said that they have such a feeling of covering the sky with one hand.

But now that the three divisions are directly interrogating, these matters have become serious. This is a case that needs to be retried and investigated seriously, and there will be absolutely no corruption of the law.Because the current emperor is about to completely suppress the Kong family, and everyone knows what this means.

Zhu Yunying didn't care about other people's thoughts, and continued, "After all, it is about the descendants of Confucius, and the clan should also come forward. How about this, King Wu is about to return to Beijing, and the matter will be supervised by King Wu."

Zhu Yunxi, the king of Wu, is the younger brother of the current emperor and the second son of the "first emperor" Zhu Biao.His Highness the King of Wu is not a fuel-efficient lamp. He goes to supervise and interrogate, not just for real supervision. That guy will definitely get the secret decree from His Majesty the Emperor, and he will lead the way during the joint trial of the three divisions.

Yan Shenggong's life will be difficult in the future. At this time, it may not only be Kong Na's "dilineage".

Zhu Yunying doesn't care what other people think, he thinks that what he must do well is probably what he must do well, and he is basically ready for everything that should be prepared.

The next big drama is probably that many people will see a series of coquettish operations by those unworthy descendants of Confucius in Qufu.The descendants of Confucius did not have many fuel-efficient lamps, and many of them may not be so virtuous.

Confucius probably did not expect that he would leave so much legacy for his descendants, and he probably did not expect that his descendants would rely on the glory of their ancestors to commit crimes and run amok. Get angry.

After all, Confucius was 'perfect', and many of his descendants were quite imperfect.
