Daming: At the start of the showdown, Lao Zhu was stunned

Chapter 6 The battle report was delivered, and Lao Zhu turned from joy to surprise!

Nothing during the day.

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, there were a lot of things.Zhu Yuanzhang didn't finish reviewing today's memorial until the day flew west and the moon was shining in the sky.

He tiptoed to the outside of Empress Ma's bedroom, and saw that there was still a figure flickering in the hall, so he stopped walking softly and strode open the door.

"Sister, we're back!"

"After approving papers for a day, we are exhausted. Can you save some of the supper that Xu Xingzu sent us?"

Empress Ma was still wearing the blue cloth, with a turban on her head, and she was holding the shoe uppers by the oil lamp.Seeing Lao Zhu push the door and come in, he didn't move, but gave him an angry sideways glance.

With this glance, the Hongwu Emperor, who was swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger, suddenly turned into the stupid and straightforward Zhu Chongba.Lao Zhu scratched his head in embarrassment, closed the door disheveledly, sat at the table and searched left and right, but he didn't see the shadow of the supper left for him on the table.

The girl is designated to be angry!

Lao Zhu didn't dare to vent his anger immediately.He stared blankly at Empress Ma for a long time, remained silent for a long time, and finally found a topic:

"Sister, this craftsmanship is really good! Are you making new shoes for us?"

"You Emperor Zhu is the Ninth Five-Year King, you can hit whoever you want. The uppers of the shoes are made of gold thread, so why would you care about my shoes?" Empress Ma didn't even raise her head.

There is something in my wife's words, how can Lao Zhu fail to hear the old couple after so many years.He laughed twice: "Sister, why say such angry words."

"When did we ever dislike the shoes you bought? Wasn't it just because I was angry with me that I called the fifth child over and beat me up this morning..."

"Zhu Chongba, you know it too." Empress Ma stopped pretending and threw her half-filled shoes on the table.

"Your boots are thick at first, and they are stitched with gold thread. How heavy are they?"

"Do you think they are still the straw sandals and cloth shoes you wore back then?"

"Su'er was seriously ill before, and his body is already weak, so you beat him like that with these boots?"

"I'm sorry to see you, the child who was beaten didn't have a good piece of meat on his buttocks...Zhu Chongba, are you going to rebel?"

These words made Emperor Hongwu break out in cold sweat.How dare you delve into the great treason in the words?He wiped off his sweat with a guilty conscience, and took Empress Ma, who had red eyes, into his arms.

"Sister, aren't we... that we are confused by anger!"

"That bastard is usually silent, who knows, he is holding him back for me."

"I don't know where I learned these deceitful tricks, and I practiced them on his father's head. If I don't hit harder, what will I do if I grow crooked in the future?"

"Sister, you know the general idea. Tell me, is this the reason we said?"

Queen Ma fell silent, she was not a naughty shrew.It was only after seeing the wound on Zhu Su's buttocks that his heart ached so much that he got angry at Lao Zhu.From the bottom of my heart, I agree with Lao Zhu's statement.There are signs of deception in the fifth child, and it is indeed time to rectify it, and this sign must be killed.

"Then you shouldn't have hit him so hard!" But the husband was to be blamed.

"Is this still ruthless?" Old Zhu felt proud when he saw that the top hat was effective, and he raised his nose and glared. "That brat, in order to deceive us, he blatantly said that Ming Dynasty must be defeated!"

"How dare you talk about such a major national event. If you don't teach him a lesson, you will have to deceive his elder brother when one side of the border is sealed off in the future?"

"Our fight is still light. After reading the front-line battle report, I'm afraid we will fight harder!"

"Battle report?" Empress Ma heard the key.Nervously said: "What battle report? Did I, Daming, win?"

She is a female family member of the harem, and she has always strictly abided by the iron law that the harem should not interfere in politics.However, the expedition of the army this time is a major event concerning all the Han people, and the common people are very concerned about it, and sooner or later the battle report will be made public.In addition, after returning from Zhu Su, countless scenes of Haoerlang of the Ming Dynasty being killed by the Tartars because of defeat flashed in her mind.To care in the heart is to ask questions.

"Of course we won." When it came to the battle report, Zhu Yuanzhang was full of ambition, and the haze caused by Zhu Su's prediction this morning was also swept away. "Tiande (Xu Da, courtesy name Tiande) sent someone to send the battle report a few days ago. His vanguard Lanyu soldiers went out of Yanmen and won two battles in a row against Wang Baobao!"

"In these two battles, Wang Baobao lost his helmet and armor and was defeated! Lanyu is a good guy. He seems to be Yuchun's wife and brother?"

"Yu Chun died young, this blue jade was so brave, it can be regarded as Yu Chun's successor."

"Unfortunately, this battle report was only delivered at noon today. It was a few hours late."

"If it had been earlier, I should have slammed this battle report in the face of the fifth child. Let him know what it feels like to be exposed in person when he talks nonsense!"

As Zhu Yuanzhang said, there was a kind of complacency in his tone of regaining face.

Queen Ma did not speak.Originally hearing that Daming had won, a happy expression of relief appeared on his face.When Zhu Yuanzhang said that Lan Yu had won two games in a row against Wang Baobao, his whole body froze and his expression became unnatural.

"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Zhu Yuanzhang noticed the abnormality of Jiefa's wife.

"Chongba. You said just now that Lan Yu's soldiers came out of Yanmen and defeated Wang Baobao two times in a row?" Empress Ma's tone was a bit strange.

"Yes." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, not knowing why his sister's expression changed drastically. "What's wrong with you, girl, isn't this a happy event?"

"Chong Ba, do you still remember that there is a statement in the battle report, where Lan Yu won Wang Baobao?" Empress Ma pressed Zhu Yuanzhang's outstretched hand and asked anxiously.

"Huh? I remember. Lan Yu first defeated Wang Baobao at Yemachuan, then pursued him all the way, and then lost again at Tulahe..." Before Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, Empress Ma's complexion had turned pale.

"Sister? What's wrong with you? Sister?" Zhu Yuanzhang was shocked, and hurriedly embraced the crumbling Empress Ma.

"Heavy eight!" Empress Ma grabbed Zhu Yuanzhang's arm with such force that even the rough-skinned and thick-skinned old Zhu felt a little pain.

"Su'er...Su'er, he is right."

"What?" Zhu Yuanzhang was a little confused. "What's wrong?"

"Beizheng!" Empress Ma swallowed. "The situation of the Northern Expedition is exactly as Su'er said!"

"This?" Zhu Yuanzhang was also shocked. "How is it possible, that Nizi, didn't he say that I, Daming, are about to lose?"

"Da Ming hasn't won yet!" Empress Ma said.Then, I will tell you all the details of the Battle of Lingbei that I heard from Zhu Su.

"...You mean, Lan Yu's success was already in Su'er's prophecy?" Zhu Yuanzhang was completely stunned.

I really did not listen to him finish the details of the prophecy!

"Yes. Su'er told me that Lanyu defeated Wang Baobao twice in Yemachuan and Tulahe. The location, order, and situation of the battle are exactly the same!" Queen Ma nodded.

"Su'er also prophesied that these two defeats were actually Wang Baobao's intentional weakness, so as to lure Tiande's lone army to go deeper?"

"That's right. Su'er also said that Tiande was successfully lured into an ambush by Wang Baobao. In just one battle, our Ming army lost thousands of lives and wounded, and fled south in panic. The great plan of the Northern Expedition fell short!"

"Su'er also predicted the exact time of the ambush. Let me think about it, it's..."

"The sixth day of May!"

Empress Ma's face was also pale.

Not only because if Daming was defeated, countless good sons would spill blood on the battlefield.

Also because...

"The sixth day of May..."

"Today is eleven. So..."

"My tens of thousands of troops in the Northern Expedition of the Ming Dynasty have probably been... defeated?"

Zhu Yuanzhang had a look of disbelief!
