Jingtai Fengyun: The First Absurd Emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 631: Two Emperors and Two Shogunates: Japan encounters magical reality
Wu Zhong was so fooled by the pie drawn by Zhang Ning that he began to imagine the bright future of the Ming Dynasty after it conquered North Korea and Japan.

Another person who felt that the world was extremely beautiful was Ashikaga Seiji, the Duke of Kamakura.

Last year, Ashikaga Seiji wanted to kill the leader Uesugi Kentada, and then integrate Kanto to fight against the Muromachi shogunate.

However, the sudden attack by Emperor Daeming on North Korea made the Ashikaga Sei clan keenly aware of the strategic opportunities.

Ashikaga Seiji chose to stand still and continue to endure.Sure enough, God-given opportunity finally arrived.

Nearly [-] of the [-] Japanese troops aiding Korea were killed in one fell swoop, and the rest were also pinned down in Korea and found it difficult to return.

June 25th, the weather was fine.

Uesugi Kenchu, the Kanto governor who was recruited by the government, arrived at the Kamakura Imperial Palace early in the morning.

Usually when Uesugi Kenchu ​​enters the main hall, he always steps with his right foot first.Today, Kenchu ​​Uesugi entered the main hall with his left foot first while reminiscing about the beautiful body of his new concubine.

A capital crime!
Uesugi Kenchu ​​saw the Ashikaga Shigeji. As soon as he finished his salute, the door was suddenly closed, and a group of servants rushed into the hall and surrounded them.

Uesugi Wanzada was puzzled: "My lord, what are you doing?"

Ashikaga Seiji smiled and nodded: "It's nothing, don't be nervous, I will leave you some dignity. Get a pen and paper. If you have any last words, write them down carefully, and then commit suicide."

"My father-in-law, what did I do wrong?"

Ashikaga Seiji curiously asked: "How did my father die? Don't you have any idea in your mind? I originally wanted you to die in the same way as my father, but it seems you don't want to.

Well, I respect your thoughts.Then I will send you away the way my two brothers died.

Anyway, my father was killed by your Uesugi family, and my two brothers were also killed by your Uesugi family.

So if you choose how my two brothers die, I can accept it. "

After saying that, Ashikaga Seiji waved his hand.

Four soldiers came up and held Uesugi Kenchu's hands and feet firmly. Another soldier took out a hard bow, put the bow string around Uesugi Kenchu's neck, and tightened it slowly and leisurely.

The soldier felt as if he hadn't eaten. He relaxed and tightened for a quarter of an hour before Uesugi Kentada finally breathed his last.

Ashikaga Seiji glanced at his own soldiers with approval, then summoned his trusted retainers and announced: "From now on, we respect Emperor Zhongxing of the Southern Dynasties, and ask Emperor Zhongxing to make me the general of the conquest of barbarians and reopen the Kamakura shogunate. .

The first thing to do next is to completely destroy the Uesugi family. "

Due to Zhu Qiyu's strong interference, Japan briefly opened the era of magical realism with two emperors and two shogunates.

On July [-]st, Zhang Ning and Wuzhong rushed back to the capital.

It was nearly noon, Zhu Qiyu and Zhu Wenfang summoned Zhang Ning and Wuzhong in Qingyun Pavilion.

When they met, Zhu Qiyu first praised the two of them greatly, and then asked Wu Zhong curiously: "You can ride and shoot ten times in a row, and on the tenth time you can hit the enemy general from 130 steps away."

I also heard that you can break two hard bows in a row, and then continue to open the bow and shoot down wild geese.

Then I'm curious, who is more powerful, you or Liu Chang? "

Wu Zhong smiled and said: "In terms of archery, Mo will be more powerful. In terms of strength and martial arts, Liu Chang is more powerful."

"Is Liu Chang so powerful? I've never seen him take action."

Wu Zhong replied: "Actually, there are many very powerful people among the soldiers at the bottom of the Ming Dynasty. However, the officers of the Ming Dynasty are all hereditary, and the soldiers at the bottom are all oppressed and have no chance to stand out at all.

Therefore, after experiencing the Xuande and Zhengtong dynasties, most of the local guards on the border have fled.Shanxi was even more serious, with nine out of ten soldiers from the lower ranks fleeing.

In the 14th year of Zhengtong, the local army in Shanxi was inactive. Yang Hong wanted to be a military governor only partly because of the scourge of traitors. The main reason was that the garrison system in Shanxi had completely collapsed.

That is to say, our brothers were lucky enough to follow the Holy Master, and were able to fulfill their ambitions, rising from small soldiers to high-ranking generals. "

Zhu Qiyu nodded to express his understanding.But I can't afford to offend the hereditary system of military officers.Once this system is changed, you will be completely free, and you will no longer have to work hard to be a broken emperor.

Fortunately, the health centers in Shanxi have been almost emptied after so many battles.

Next, adjust and rebuild to create a truly impregnable Shanxi, rather than the false Shanxi that maintained the wise kings and wise ministers of the Xuande Dynasty.

After chatting, Zhu Qiyu listened to Zhang Ning's explanation of the situation on the Korean front.

After listening to Zhang Ning's analysis of the navies of North Korea and Japan, Zhu Qiyu fell into deep thought and nodded after a long while:

"I was the one who made the preconceptions. Japan is an island country, and Japanese pirates frequently invaded the Ming Dynasty. I thought Japan's navy was stronger than North Korea's."

Zhang Ning replied: "Japan has been experiencing internal strife over the years, but has had no external troubles, so it is normal not to pay attention to the navy. North Korea has some dissatisfaction with the Ming Dynasty. Although they surrender on the surface, they are always thinking about Nuer Gandusi. .

Fortunately, North Korea is not as strong-willed as Annan. Otherwise, during the Xuande Dynasty, when Nuergandusi moved inward, more or less some land would have to be donated to North Korea. "

Zhu Qiyu smiled knowingly when he heard the word "dedication".Our wise Emperor Shenwuxuanmiao was so considerate of the foreign vassals and truly a benevolent king through the ages.

After all, they were the new academic candidates who were selected based on the policy and thesis I proposed, and their political consciousness was very high.

So Zhu Qiyu said: "Then Lao Aiqing will go to Dengzhou and Jiaozhou to convey the order for me and make new arrangements."

When Wu Zhong heard that Zhang Ning was sent to Shandong, he became a little anxious.

Seeing this, Zhu Qiyu asked: "Why, you also want to go to Shandong? After working with Zhang Aiqing for these days, are you still reluctant to leave?"

Wu Zhong was also very straightforward: "There is a tacit understanding between the final general and brother Jing. Brother Jing is quick-thinking and good at making decisions, but he is not like other civil servants who like to be smart and blindly give orders."

Zhu Qiyu waved his hand: "Okay, okay, I will promote you to the position of Liaodong's capital commander, and you will lead Guangning's central defender, left defender, right defender and Zhang Aiqing to support Shandong. That's all."

Wu Zhong accepted the order with satisfaction and thanked him.

Zhu Qiyu is still very tolerant towards his beloved general, and will try his best to satisfy all demands as long as they are not too excessive.

Outside Qingyun Pavilion, Ningxiang led Pei Dang and Chen Lin up the stairs.

When I got to the vicinity of Guanxin Pavilion, I saw Liu Changzheng sitting there alone, looking at the scenery dully.

Ningxiang walked over and asked curiously: "Why is our Lord Wuan sitting here alone?"

Liu Chang quickly stood up and saluted: "I have seen the empress, why should I take the prince to the Qingyun Pavilion to watch the emperor handle military and political affairs. The general does not want to listen to those messy military affairs, so he hides here and is lazy."

Ningxiang looked back at Pei Dang and Chen Lin.The two of them placed the food boxes they were carrying on the table.

Putting down the food boxes, Pei Dang and Chen Lin felt relieved, whining and beating their waists.

Ningxiang took out snacks and iced fruits, and explained with a smile: "To make Marquis Wu'an laugh, our food boxes and dishes are all made of jade. They are a little heavy and hurt your waist. You have to eat first." Watermelon, this is all chilled.”

Liu Chang was very familiar with the empress in front of him. He pointed to a jade pot in the food box and asked: "Empress, what's in that? There is a peach blossom fragrance mixed with a hint of milk. It is refreshing when you smell it from a distance.

There is such a good thing, the empress cannot hide it secretly and give it to the Holy Lord to drink. At least I will give it to the general to have a taste. "
