Daming: From the end of Hongwu

375 Chapter 373 - Da Ming's Style

Zhen Wu's voice pierced through the fine snow that was flying all over the garden, and rang in everyone's ears. It was as cold as snow and frost that had accumulated in the post station.

The army horse seemed to have sensed the change in the atmosphere, sniffed a little uneasy, and at the same time exhaled a big mouthful of white air.

When Mei Ji saw Zhen Wu, a strong joy had already bloomed in her eyes.

He was originally under Wang Zhen's command earlier, so he naturally knew Zhen Wu, the banner-like leader of the right army. He knelt down to worship Huang Zhong's body, but when he stood up from the ground, he walked a few steps in the direction of Zhen Wu, and solemnly again Kneeling down on one knee, he said, "Mei Ji, a lowly official, pay my respects to Duke Zhao."

This sound seemed to wake up everyone in astonishment.

Countless people in the station started to kneel down to Zhen Wu spontaneously, even Huang Zhong was no exception, he quickly got off his horse, led the soldiers he brought, and knelt down on one knee to Zhen Wu , Said: "Meet Zhao Guogong."

For a moment, Zhen Wu on the second floor looked down indifferently, and the bottom was full of people kneeling to see Zhen Wu.

At this moment, he was aloof, like the god who ruled their lives.

The snowflake suddenly seemed to get bigger.

It floated in circles and landed on the ground, on the eaves, and on top of the crowd's heads. After a while, many people's heads were stained white.

In the window on the second floor, Zhen Wu's figure suddenly disappeared.

soon.

Zhen Wu strode out from the gate on the first floor.

Then, along with his footsteps, his voice resounded in this world.

"Get up."

There was a sound from the crowd, and then one by one stood up and stood on both sides automatically, giving Zhen Wu a wide passageway, and Zhen Wu came directly to Huang Zhong without stopping all the way.

Zhen Wu's guards automatically gathered around Zhen Wu, each with a stern face, skillfully propped up an area that no one was allowed to step into.

At this time, the monkey cleverly moved a chair and gently placed it behind Zhen Wu.

When Zhen Wu sat down, Cheng Liang also held up a big umbrella to help Zhen Wu cover the snow from the sky.

Mei Ji and Zhuzi looked at Zhen Wu, excited in their hearts, and wanted to speak up, but Zhen Wu slightly raised his hand at them, blocking their movement, and then Zhen Wu's eyes were on Huang Zhong.

He didn't speak, just looked at Huang Zhong quietly.

To be honest, Zhen Wu was actually a little surprised that Huang Zhong came here so quickly, and couldn't help but lament that Zhu Gaoxu had made some progress over the years, but he was not a fool, and he knew the importance of Chen Tianping better than anyone else.

What's more, he knew about Chen Tianping earlier than Zhu Gaoxu, so how could he ignore Chen Tianping after seeing Zhu Gaoxu's decision.

So, after he came out of Zhu Gaoxu's house that day, he made a little arrangement, changed his clothes, and took people south. Tianping returned to Beijing.

He had expected that Zhu Gaoxu would send someone to target Chen Tianping, but what was unexpected was that Huang Zhong, who was an official and governor, came over. What Zhen Wu didn't expect was that when Huang Zhong faced Mei Ji and Zhuzi, he was so complacent that he said Talk nonsense.

Huang Zhong was stared at by Zhen Wu, even in the cold winter, he still felt his cheeks were hot.

He couldn't figure out why Zhen Wu appeared here, and he seemed to have come here very early, which reminded him of what he said just now, and couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.

Who is Zhen Wu?

The first general in the army!
He has repeatedly said that he is not afraid of Zhen Wu's name, which proves that he is afraid of Zhen Wu, otherwise he would not have encountered such a thing that could use Zhu Gaoxu's power to not care about Zhen Wu's name, so he wanted to show off .

"Guogong... low position... low position... I was a little outspoken just now, and I hope the country will forgive me." Huang Zhong tactfully admitted on the spot, not daring to say a word.

Zhen Wu started to play with his jade pendant again at this moment, when he heard Huang Zhong's words, he paused slightly and held the jade pendant in his palm.

He raised his eyebrows and said, "So, I can provoke you?"

Isn't this nonsense.

Yellow center bitter.

Damn, didn't he just think that Zhen Wu wasn't there?

"It's provocative, it's just that I was ordered by His Highness the King of Han to arrest Chen Tianping, but before that, someone used your name to stop me, I just said that in a moment of urgency." Huang Zhong apologized At the same time, he had to carry out Zhu Gaoxu's name.

However, there was a faint smile on Zhen Wu's face.

Zhen Wu shook his head and said: "An order from the King of Han? But unfortunately, the name of the King of Han can't suppress me, no... It should be said that even the King of Han can't suppress me. Now what do you think? "

Huang Zhong was stunned for a moment, remembering the rumors that Zhen Wu taught Zhu Gaoxu a lesson in the past, he couldn't say anything immediately.

Zhen Wu looked at Huang Zhong's appearance, snorted coldly, and didn't want to talk to Huang Zhong any more, his face darkened and said: "Do you palm your mouth yourself, or should I let others do it?"

Huang Zhong couldn't help raising his head to glance at Zhen Wu, but he saw Zhen Wu's deep and stern face at this glance, his heart jumped in shock, he gritted his teeth, raised his hand and slapped him heavily on the mouth .

Zhen Wu looked at him silently, as if the abyss was engulfing him, and it was also like the waves of the sky rushing towards him.

Seeing that Zhen Wu refused to give up, Huang Zhong had no choice but to grit his teeth, and slapped himself twice more violently on the mouth, then lowered his head and said to Zhen Wu: "Duke, I know my mistake, please forgive me."

"People with you, get lost." Zhen Wu said coldly.

After all, Huang Zhong is also a figure from the official to the governor, and it is impossible for Zhen Wu to do anything to Huang Zhong just because of an offense or two, not to mention Huang Zhong's clever attitude of admitting his mistakes.

A few slaps to teach a lesson are enough.

Huang Zhong heaved a sigh of relief, he didn't dare to argue with Zhen Wu, and immediately waved his men and got on the horse and hurried away.

But when Huang Zhong and the others left the post station for a certain distance, Huang Zhong's cronies said unhappily to Huang Zhong's side: "Captain, Zhao Guogong is too domineering. After all, we have obtained the order of the King of Han, so it's fine if he doesn't give face at all. He still treats the governor like this."

Huang Zhong took a deep breath, waved his hands and said: "I offended Zhao Guogong, and I was blamed by him. I should have meant it. I have nothing to complain about. It's just that the Hanwang's account cannot be completed. We must notify His Highness Hanwang as soon as possible. Think of other ways to follow up."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at his subordinates, and said to his relatives: "In this way, you will take them slowly, and then give me some free horses, and I will take a few people back to the capital first."

The confidant responded and hurried to do it.

After a while, Huang Zhong took a few of his men, one on two horses, and headed towards the capital at high speed.

……

In Xiangshan station.

After Zhen Wu left in Huangzhong, he briefly talked to Mei Jizhuzi, and when he saw Pei Boqi bringing Chen Tianping to visit him, he immediately left Mei Ji and Zhuzi and looked at Pei Boqi and Chen Tianping.

By this time they had moved into the house.

The people at the station prepared good tea and brought it over.

Zhen Wu picked up the tea and blew gently, then put it down and looked at Chen Tianping and the two.

Pei Boqi asked, "Duke, what is going on? Why did the governor come to take us away, and why did the Duke suddenly appear here?"

Zhen Wu sighed and said: "Du Shengxian, you have entered the capital. Although you haven't seen His Majesty yet, you have been visiting various courtiers."

Both Pei Boqi and Chen Tianping were shocked, especially Pei Boqi said with grief and indignation: "This bastard, how dare the villain sue first?!"

Zhen Wu motioned the two of them not to be impulsive, and said: "To be honest, I heard about you before Du Sheng entered Beijing, but I only knew a little about it, and when Du Sheng said that you are fake Chen's children, it caused a lot of trouble. I'm in a daze right now, what's going on, can you tell me in detail."

When the childish Chen Tianping heard this, he couldn't help but get angry immediately, and said with a blushing face: "My identity, Chen Tianping, is well known to the people of Annan, so how could it be a fake?"

Zhen Wu frowned.

Seeing this, Pei Boqi took the initiative to persuade Chen Tianping: "Young Master, don't be angry, let me discuss this matter with Zhao Guogong in detail."

Afterwards, Pei Boqi looked at Zhen Wu and began to talk in detail about how Li Jishou plotted to usurp the throne, how he deceived Ming Dynasty, and how he murdered the children of the Chen family.

Zhen Wu cooperated and expressed surprise from time to time.

But Pei Boqi, an old guy, is really good at eloquence. The ups and downs of this story were so miserable that it made Chen Tianping cry again.

Especially when Pei Boqi talked about how Li Jishou slaughtered Chen's children, how he didn't even spare a two-year-old baby, coupled with Chen Tianping's crying, Mei Ji and Zhuzi couldn't stop crying.

Zhen Wu also sighed in his heart. The transfer of political power is often accompanied by bloody massacres. Which one is not miserable for the losing party?
Originally enjoying a life of luxury and good food, but suddenly being slaughtered, imprisoned, and female relatives were even bullied, how could the survivors not regard it as the enemy of life and death, which is a great shame.

Seeing Zhen Wu and the others, Pei Boqi was filled with sympathy, changed the subject, and choked up, saying: "I, the Annan Chen family, have kept my duty since the emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty and after I was canonized by the Taizu, and regarded Daming as the suzerain. Responding to every request, paying tribute every year, now that I, Annan, have undergone such a drastic change, how can Daming just sit back and watch?"

"No." Zhen Wu seemed to have been infected by Pei Boqi's emotions.

Pei Boqi said again: "Da Ming and I, Annan, the relationship between the two countries is like the relationship between father and son. Now that Daming's child is brutally killed by a villain, how can Da Ming not help me, Annan, to avenge this great revenge?"

"We must help." Zhen Wu said firmly.

When Pei Boqi and Chen Tianping heard Zhen Wu's words, they couldn't help laughing. This was the best news they had heard these days. They are restored.

It's just that the next moment, Zhen Wu, who was originally moved, opened his mouth like a hungry whale, and rushed towards them with his bloody mouth wide open: "There is just something that you two need to know. The next time I came to Beijing, I brought a lot of gold and silver treasures. Although I, Zhen Wu, believe in you, others may not. If too many people don’t believe it, I, His Majesty Ming, will think that you are counterfeit, even if I, Zhen Wu, want to help you recover The country has no right to send troops to Annan."

Chen Tianping said anxiously: "This can be checked. You can send people to Annan to check and find out my identity."

Zhen Wu said indifferently: "Will those who go to Annan to investigate won't receive gold and silver treasures?"

amount.

Chen Tianping fell silent.

Afterwards, he cried again and said, "Then what should we do? We are poor and white now, so how can we compare with them?"

Pei Boqi took a deep breath. He is an adult, and even a mature politician. Now that he understood what Zhen Wu meant, he bowed to Zhen Wu and said, "I hope Duke Zhao will pay more attention to Daming about this matter." Your Majesty has a good word, if Daming has any embarrassment or request, we can discuss it, even if it is to send a few cities to Daming, it is not impossible."

Zhen Wu stood up abruptly, looked at Pei Boqi with dissatisfaction, and said, "What are you talking about? My Ming Dynasty is a vast kingdom of heaven. How could I have taken a fancy to your ports and places in Annan?"

Having said that, Zhen Wu paused, and said righteously: "We either don't care about this matter, or we will manage it to the end. Let me assure you, not only do we not want anything from you, but we will give it to Mr. Chen Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and some internal affairs personnel, helped Mr. Chen govern Annan. After all, according to what you just said, even if the country is restored, Mr. Chen’s power is really weak. , this is a very necessary thing, and this is my Daming style."

Pei Boqi frowned.

Zhen Wu didn't care either, he smiled and said: "Now the problem is your identities, as long as you can prove your identities, I, Daming, as the suzerain, will absolutely help you restore the country without a second thought, should you two seriously think about it?" Once you think of the capital, how should you prove your identity to me, His Majesty Daming?"

"We'll think about it," Pei Boqi said.

Zhen Wu nodded and said: "Don't worry, there is still a long way to go to the capital anyway, of course, if you think about it in advance, you can talk to me first, so that I can help you to say something in front of His Majesty. "

"Then I will thank Mr. Zhao Guo first." After Pei Boqi finished speaking, he dragged Chen Tianping to bid farewell to Zhen Wu and left.

Zhen Wu looked at the back of them leaving, played with the jade pendant with his fingers, and remembered something.

He was a little confused about whether to send troops to Annan and find an excuse to kill Chen Tianping.

After all, this Chen Tianping looked very well controlled.

After thinking about it, Zhen Wu decided.

Or kill it.

It's such a peace of mind.

It's just that the conditions still need to be discussed with Chen Tianping, otherwise Pei Boqi, an old fox, might be suspicious.

Otherwise, there is no leading party.

And the other side.

After Chen Tianping and the others came to their room, Chen Tianping was moved and said to Pei Boqi: "Mr. Pei, this Zhao Guogong is really a good person. I was already panicked in my heart, but after listening to his words, I became more at ease. If one day Daming really helps us restore the country, I will definitely thank him well."

Pei Boqi felt a little bitter.

it is good?
What a fart.

However, seeing Chen Tianping's innocent appearance, he couldn't help but start to think, even if the country is really restored, can Chen Tianping's talents be qualified to be the lord of Annan?

If not, it is not impossible for Da Ming to take control of Annan after Da Ming helped the Chen family avenge their blood.

Just when Pei Boqi was thinking.

Chen Tianping asked: "Mr. Pei, am I wrong?"

Pei Boqi sighed, for some reason, he didn't want to tell Chen Tianping the sinister people's hearts in the world, he said with a smile: "Yes, yes, you are right, well, I've been tired all day, go to bed early , I still need to think about it again, how to prove our identity to the Emperor of Ming Dynasty after we arrive at the Great Ming capital."

"Okay, then I'll trouble Mr. Pei." After Chen Tianping finished speaking, he actually went to bed with peace of mind.

And after a while, there was the sound of Chen Tianping's sleeping breathing.

Some children are born unbearable!
