Chapter 174
"Your Majesty sees Your Majesty!" He Neng looked very happy. He first saluted Zhu Houzhao with a serious face, and then stood up with a bright smile on his face: "The emperor and the courtiers have heard that His Highness The victory over the Tartars in the Northwest is now being praised throughout the capital for His Highness's heroic deeds."

"My servant is happy for Your Highness." He Neng smiled and flattered her, and then said: "The emperor has a decree for His Highness."

Zhu Houzhao nodded. He knew that He Neng was here, so he must have been sent by his father. Otherwise, even if he was passing an order to himself, He Neng would not have to come.It's okay to be in the capital, but He Neng was asked to make a trip in the northwest, which shouldn't be the case.Zhu Houzhao nodded, and then said: "Okay, then let's announce the decree!" Zhu Houzhao bowed and stood still.

As a prince, there is no need to kneel to receive the imperial edict, which is also one of Zhu Houzhao's preferential treatment as a prince.

He Neng quickly unfolded the imperial decree, which is a central decree, the core content of which can be summed up in one sentence, that is, "You son of a bitch, come back!"

Of course, the imperial decree will be kept on file, so it is naturally impossible to be so straightforward. At the beginning of the article, Zhu Houzhao was praised, and then he was asked to go back.Obediently borrowed the decree. In fact, Zhu Houzhao had expected it a long time ago. As long as the good news came back to the capital, his father would definitely let him go back. There would be no suspense at all, so there was no resistance.

In Zhu Youtang's heart, what is a victory, even if the fire is extinguished, so what?This is the only son I have.

Daming Jiangshan is the only heir, if his son is gone, what will he do?Who will the country pass on to?Pass it on to your younger brother?The key is that he has no younger brother!If Concubine Zheng's son is alive, then the throne will have nothing to do with her.In Zhu Youtang's eyes, the survival of the country is much more important than fighting the Tartars. .

There are so many people in the court, so many soldiers, so many generals, who can't fight?You have to rush, a prince.

Zhu Houzhao can't do anything about it. It is estimated that if his mother can give birth to a son this time, maybe he can feel more comfortable, at least he is gone, and he also has a younger brother.Or if you have a son, you can relax yourself?Thinking of this, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but think of a rather terrifying thing. Dad isn't thinking about choosing a queen for himself, is he?

I am 11 years old this year, but my height is more than 1.7 meters. Just looking at my figure, I have already developed. According to Daming's virtue, finding a woman is probably on the agenda, right?

My family knows about my family. Although I am 1.7 meters now, I have not yet reached puberty and have not started to develop at all. There are some things that I can't help!

"I hope I'm wrong!" Zhu Houzhao lamented in his heart. After receiving the imperial decree, Zhu Houzhao glanced at He Neng, and then asked: "I will go back in the next few days. There are a few seriously injured people who can't go on their way for the time being. Resting here, Bengong is ready to take it away, and stay here if you can’t take it away.”

Many of these seriously wounded are missing arms and legs, and some have been stabbed in the abdomen and chest, unable to exert strength, and unable to fight.But Zhu Houzhao is not going to beat these people back to their original places, they are all talents, what is the most difficult thing?talent!How can someone who has spent so much energy training himself fight back like this.

Whether they are logistics generals or instructors, these people are very suitable. They have fought in battle, killed people, and they can talk about the spirit of veterans, which is very good!
Immediately, I will set up the Imperial Martial Arts Academy. These people are the most suitable instructors, and Zhu Houzhao naturally values ​​them very much.

"The servant girl will go to Master Qin to pass the decree. At that time, the servant girl can return to the capital with His Highness." He Neng said with a smile, the expression on his face did not show the slightest abnormality, it seemed normal, it looked like I am very excited to go back to Beijing with Zhu Houzhao.

Zhu Houzhao smiled and nodded, "Okay!"

But Zhu Houzhao finally understood that his father didn't believe him, and it was obvious that He Neng's imperial edict to Qin Hong must have written to let him go back.He Neng also knew the purpose of coming here in person, which was to let him stare at him returning to Beijing and not give himself a chance to resist at all.Zhu Houzhao was quite moved. Dad was really afraid that something would happen to him!

Besides, the affairs in the northwest are almost done, and it is indeed time to go back, and it is enough to leave the rest to Qin Hong.

Three days later, Zhu Houzhao set off back to Beijing with his men, and naturally He Neng was with him. This eunuch not only knew how to ride a horse, but also had good riding skills, which Zhu Houzhao did not expect.

The news that Zhu Houzhao is going back to Beijing has naturally spread back a long time ago. Everyone has different attitudes towards the prince's return. Some are disapproving, while others feel relieved. Naturally, it was Zhang Heling, Marquis of Shouning.Zhu Houzhao was not in the capital during this period, and Zhang Heling really didn't know what to do.

Some time ago, the list of salt merchants drawn up by the cabinet had been sent to the palace, and things were exactly as expected by his prince and nephew, and his people were indeed targeted.

Although what I did in the follow-up was secretive enough, some people were still found out. Not only that, several people from Xungui's side were also taken down.If the prince's nephew hadn't explained it earlier, he would have panicked a long time ago.Now that the list is about to be finalized, Zhang Heling still has no idea because he has not seen the list handed over by the cabinet.

After his prince and nephew came back, finally someone could make decisions for him, how could Zhang Heling be unhappy.

Another bad thing is the Secretary of General Administration. Although the matter of the secret report has been finalized and is about to be implemented, Shen Lu, the envoy of the General Administration, has also come up with the regulations. , can only wait for him to come back, now that Zhu Houzhao will finally come, just in time, how could Zhang Heling be unhappy.

On the day Zhu Houzhao entered Beijing, many people waited at the gate of the city and on both sides of the street to see the cavalry who had won the battle. Many people said that this is the strong army of the Ming Dynasty. There is a lot of quarrel these days. Everyone naturally wants to see it.

Secondly, of course, I want to see His Highness the Crown Prince. I heard that His Highness is not only capable of both civil and military skills, but also a rare handsome man. How can I not see him?So many people came to join in the fun.

However, Zhu Houzhao didn’t show his face. He is a prince. He has nothing to do to show his face. Highlights are not important. Besides, I plan to conduct private visits in secret in the future. If someone sees it and writes it down, or simply draws it, how can I make private visits in secret.Maybe it will be the same as traveling with celebrities, where you are afraid of being recognized by others, no matter what, no matter what.

It was Wang Shouren who led the army into the city, and Zhu Houzhao had already led people into the city the day before, and returned directly to the palace.

The first thing to do when you return to the palace is naturally to visit your father, and then have dinner with your mother. This is something that cannot be delayed, and it is also the most important thing.

After eating in Kunning Palace, the father and son came to Qianqing Palace together. After serving tea, the father and son sat down to have a chat.Seeing his son returning safely, and it had been so long, Zhu Youtang was not that angry, but he made up his mind not to let his son do this next time.

"Let's talk about the Battle of the Northwest!" Zhu Youtang glanced at his son and asked, although the victory report has already written in great detail, but Zhu Youtang knows that such things as the victory report can be roughly read , You need to understand the detailed situation, and there is nothing to see here. In comparison, it is more appropriate to ask a son who has personal experience.

Zhu Houzhao didn't hide anything, and told how he went to the northwest along the way, how he strangled the scouts, and how he fought with the Tartars.

"The past few years have not been peaceful on the grassland, and the fighting among various ministries has been fierce. The little prince has shown a tendency to dominate the grassland. The border of Ming Dynasty must be prepared early, and it will become more difficult in the future." Zhu Houzhao concluded: "The northwest is very corrupt. Great, although I didn’t go to see it, but the nine sides should be similar, so it’s not much better.”

This is directly related to the imperial court's abolition of the payment of grain and opening up the central government. In just ten years, the merchants in the frontier did not go, the commercial villages were abandoned, and the people fled. It becomes as fragile as paper.This kind of weakness can't be easily stopped, and in the Jiajing period, he was even beaten directly to the capital.

Zhu Youtang looked at his son, and asked with some hesitation: "What do you think it will be?"

When he said this, Zhu Youtang's face was not very good-looking. His son had told him before that changing from Naliangkaizhong to Nayinkaizhong would lead to the weakening of Jiubian. Zhu Youtang still felt that his son was exaggerating, but The reality is so cruel.In just ten years, the Northwest has weakened to this point.During the Chenghua Dynasty, Wang Zhi of Xichang was in chaos.

But whether it was in Hetao, Xuanda, or Liaodong, the imperial court used troops repeatedly, and basically they won big victories.

The three sides in the northwest can reach Helan Mountain, look at it now, in a short period of time, Zhu Youtang could feel better when he was invaded and defeated by the Tartars on the three sides, and blocked Guyuan City to fight.

Glancing at his father, Zhu Houzhao couldn't bear it, so he sighed softly and said: "Father, my son thinks that it is not too late to make up for it. But it’s time to change it, and although it’s inappropriate to change it to Nayin Kaizhong, it’s definitely better to change it to the salt merchant access system this time.”

"The imperial court can receive more silver, and the imperial court can train troops with silver. I believe that the emperor will be able to revive the Nine Frontiers in a short time."

"When the time comes, don't talk about returning to the old view of Chenghua. Even if you follow Emperor Taizong's conquest of the grassland, you will be invincible and invincible! Father, as the master of Zhongxing Ming, is destined to be famous in history, comparable to Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty."

 Today is just one chapter. My girlfriend is celebrating her birthday and I want to go to the movies with her. Please bear with me. This is the only time. If you dare to make such an excessive request next time, I will break up with her. It will delay my writing too much. It is a sin ,that is it.
