Daming: I, Yang Xian, really govern Yang!

Chapter 204 Clay Bodhisattva also has three points of fire (4k)

The second prince Zhu Xi, who was left behind in Daning, had been completely idle these days.

But the military order cannot be followed, and there is nothing he can do.

Thinking of the fourth child, Zhu Di, who had been crowned king, Zhu Xi had a look of yearning in his eyes.

It would have been nice if he had been the one who followed Yang Xian on the expedition. Otherwise, he could have gone to Yunnan with his eldest brother Mu Ying like the third child.

But when it was his turn, he had to become a partner with Lan Yu.

It was really bad luck for eight lifetimes. Zhu Xi threw the stone in his hand with some annoyance.

This is not what I want to do with the army!
At the same time, three cavalrymen galloped into the city from outside Daning City.

The three cavalrymen kept shouting: "General, great victory in Liaodong! Great victory!"

"General, great victory in Liaodong!"

"Great victory!"

When the people in the city heard the shouting, they retreated to both sides of the road. The three cavalry quickly entered the city and went straight to the military command post in the city.

"Your Highness the Second Prince, the General has won a great victory in Liaodong! Eight hundred messengers are rushing to the city to report the news!"

After receiving the news, a subordinate immediately came to the mansion to report to Zhu Ping.

When Zhu Ping heard the news about Lan Yu's victory, he also showed a sincere smile on his face. He stood up and said, "Let's go to the command post!"

Health center.

Zhu Ming sat on the main seat, looked at the soldiers kneeling below, and asked: "Are you under the general's tent?"

"I bid the hundred households in front of General Zheng Liao's tent, Lan Rong! Pay homage to His Highness the Second Prince!"

"Lan Rong."

Zhu Xi knew that he was Lan Yu's adopted son.Some Huaixi nobles did not learn other skills from Zhu Yuanzhang, but in the matter of recognizing their adopted son, they were better than others.

Lan Yu is one of the best, and the slogan he shouts is that of father and son.

Zhu Ping turned to look at the pro-juniors standing aside and said, "Take Lan Baihu down to have a good rest."

"Yes!"

The second prince's personal soldier said that he was going to take Lan Rong down to rest, but Lan Rong, who was kneeling on the ground, had no intention of getting up. He only saw him clasping his fists with his hands and saying loudly: "His Royal Highness the second prince, the general has Order, if you want to bid, you must present this piece of Lubu fast horse in front of your majesty. If you are brave enough to bid, I also ask your highness to give you a fast horse so that I can go on the road immediately."

The voice just fell.

There was silence in the tent.

Zhu Ping's expression changed as he was sitting in the main seat. He was planning to bypass him and ask for credit directly from the emperor.

What do you think you are, air?

Zhu Feng's personal bodyguard was the first to be unable to bear it and yelled loudly: "Bold!"

Zhu Xi raised his right hand to stop the next move of his subordinates.

No matter how unhappy he was, Zhu Ping still endured it when he thought of what his elder brother had said to him before the expedition.

"Come here, prepare horses for Lan Baihu, hurry up for eight hundred miles! Report the victory to Your Majesty!" Zhu Xi said in a deep voice.

"Thank you, Your Highness, the Second Prince!"

After Lan Rong saluted, he immediately stood up and walked outside the tent.

After Lan Rong left, Zhu Xiang's personal guard couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Your Highness, Lan Yu doesn't take you seriously at all."

"Shut up! You can't comment on the name of General Zheng Liao." Zhu Xi scolded.

There is no need for him to talk about this kind of thing, anyone with a discerning eye can see it.

During this expedition to the Liao Dynasty, he, Lan Yu, worshiped Zhu Chong as a clay Bodhisattva.He is afraid that he will share the credit with him. You must know that the remaining power of the Northern Yuan Dynasty in Liaodong is second only to the Mobei Royal Court. In terms of wealth, it may be even better than the Mobei Royal Court. Therefore, pacifying Liaodong is also a great achievement. , a feat worthy of being crowned king and prime minister.

"Prepare the horse!"

"Where to go, Your Highness?"

"Go and see our general." Zhu Xi walked out of the house without looking back.

………………

Beijing.

Fengtian Hall of the Imperial Palace, where the great dynasty meets.

"General Lan Yu, under the emperor's order, conquered Liaodong, but fortunately he fulfilled his order. Kaiyuan King Naha came out and led his troops out of the city to surrender."

"Seventy-seven thousand thirty-seven soldiers, men and women, were captured. Seals, books, and cards were obtained, 37 and 110. An imperial edict was announced, 390 and 840, one gold seal and three silver seals. Forty-seven thousand horses and four camels were obtained. One thousand, eight hundred and forty heads, one hundred and twenty thousand, four hundred and fifty two cattle and sheep, and more than three thousand chariots. Gather the soldiers together and burn them."

After listening to the officials read out Lan Yu's achievements in pacifying Liaodong this time, Li Shanchang walked out from the group of ministers, knelt down and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Li Shanchang, would like to congratulate you!"

As the head of a hundred officials, he did this, and the other officials naturally followed suit, and His Highness knelt down in darkness.

"Congratulations to His Majesty! Congratulations to Daming!"

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting high in the Dragon Court, couldn't see his expression clearly. He glanced below, narrowed his eyes slightly, and raised his hand.

"Pingshen!" the chamberlain on the side said loudly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Seeing the officials stand up, Zhu Yuanzhang showed a smile on his face, and the first thing he said was: "Okay!"

"The last piece of Liaodong has also been cleared. Now the dust is finally washed away! The whole country is unified!"

"Pass the message, blue jade is written by the Duke of Jin and Liang, and he will be given an iron coupon!"

"Your Majesty!" The ministers congratulated again.

the other end.

Zhu Fang led his troops and personally went to the front line to greet Lan Yu.

But when he arrived in front of the coach's camp, he was stopped by the soldiers guarding the camp.

"His Royal Highness the Second Prince is here, start the camp!"

"His Royal Highness the Second Prince is here, start the camp!"

The pro-military guard beside Zhu Xi shouted twice in succession towards the garrison soldiers standing at a high place.

But the gate of the camp remained motionless.

The soldier guarding the gate looked at Zhu Xi and his party below, and loudly replied: "Your Highness, the Second Prince, forgive me, but you cannot open the camp without the order of the general."

Zhu Ping suppressed his temper and shouted loudly: "Where is the general?"

"The general is busy with military affairs. Please wait for a moment. I will go to report immediately." After saying this, the guard sergeant turned around and left. It seemed that he should have gone to report.

Zhu Xi and a group of personal guards could only wait outside the camp.

But this wait actually lasted nearly an hour!
squeak-

Just when Zhu Ping and the others were getting impatient with waiting, the gate of the military camp slowly opened.

Then two teams of well-equipped sergeants trotted out from inside and lined up on both sides. As the protagonist, Lan Yu came belatedly and slowly walked out from the middle, followed by a group of counselors and generals.

When people arrive, sound comes first. "Hahahaha, His Highness the Second Prince, you are here."

"Your Majesty Lan Yu, pay homage to His Highness the Second Prince!"

Lan Yu walked out of the military camp, smiled and saluted Zhu Ping.

All the soldiers behind him knelt down.

Lan Yu was the only one who just made a simple bow.

Zhu Xi said: "General, there is no need to be polite."

Lan Yu was not polite to Zhu Ping. Before Zhu Ping could say anything, he stood up straight. He smiled and said, "Your Highness, the Second Prince, I am really busy with military affairs and have kept you waiting for a long time."

"Your Highness, the Second Prince, please forgive me."

As he spoke, he looked straight at Zhu Xi.

Zhu Xiang's face twitched and he said, "It doesn't matter."

"Come on, please come in, Your Highness the Second Prince, come and see what we have achieved in this expedition to Liaodong!" Lan Yu laughed loudly, emphasizing the word "we" when saying this.

After saying that, Lan Yu turned around and started leading the way.

Along the way, Lan Yu seemed very excited.

"Your Highness, the Second Prince, please come in."

"Come, come, come and see, these are the trophies we captured."

Lan Yu began to introduce everything to Zhu Xi.

"Your Highness, take a look, how are these horses?" Lan Yu pointed at the horses being trained by the sergeant on a pasture in the distance, and laughed.

Zhu Fang squinted his eyes for a while, then said: "What a horse!"

As a prince, he still has this kind of discernment. After all, he has seen a lot of good things since he was a child.

In Zhu Xi's view, the horses in front of him were not as good as even the horses in the palace.

Seeing that these horses were recognized and praised by Zhu Xi, the smile on Lan Yu's face became brighter.

"Your Highness, you have really good eyesight. To be honest, these horses were all found by the general in the palace of Kaiyuan King Naha, and they are all Naha's royal horses!"

"Oh, Yuma?"

"Yes, Your Highness, if you like it, I will give these horses to you." Lan Yu said generously.

From Lan Yu's point of view, Zhu Ping was following her on the expedition, so naturally she couldn't deny him any benefits.

"Huh?" Lan Yu looked at Zhu Xi, waiting for his answer.

When Zhu Xi was a child, although he was known as a scumbag in the palace headquarters, even he knew that these royal horses of King Kaiyuan were the property of the imperial court, and such direct distribution of Lan Yu was against the imperial laws.

Zhu Feng rarely said something literate, and said: "My horse has not yet entered the court, but I accepted it first. How can I respect you?"

As soon as these words came out, Lan Yu's expression immediately changed.

At this time, Zhu Xi did not tolerate him and said directly: "It will take some time for the general to count the spoils. Now that Liaodong has been decided, I can't help much by staying here, so I will go back to the capital first."

After saying that, Zhu Xi didn't wait for Lan Yu's reaction and left directly with his bodyguards.

Lan Yu looked at Zhu Ping and the others' leaving, with a look of disdain on her face, and muttered in a low voice, "What the hell."

In Lan Yu's eyes, his achievements in pacifying Liaodong this time were similar to Yang Xian's previous victory over Mobei.

Yang Xian had previously been punished for mobilizing troops and horses in Liaodong without authorization, but even so, he was granted the title of Duke of the State, and his salary surpassed that of Li Shanchang and was equal to that of Wei Duke Xu Da.

Compared with mobilizing Liaodong soldiers and horses without authorization, what happened to him playing with a few horses?
A prince who has never even been on the battlefield and stayed at the rear dares to choke me with words? !

When Lan Yu thought of this, he became a little angry. He shouted at the back of Zhu Ping and the others as they left, and shouted to the sergeant on the side: "Come, bring me a horse, I want to ride it!"

Lan Yu rode a horse and galloped around the grassland for several times, but her anger was still not gone.

He turned around and returned to the camp, where wine and meat had already been prepared, and there were several beautiful women waiting on Lan Yu.

The deputy general couldn't stand it anymore and said: "General, women are not allowed to be accepted in the army, not to mention that they are all sinners. How to deal with them depends on the court's instructions."

"Even you want to talk about me?!" Lan Yu pointed at the deputy general's nose and cursed.

"I don't dare." The deputy general immediately knelt down and said.

Lan Yu said arrogantly: "Based on my achievements this time, it's so big that I need a few women to take care of me."

After a few bowls of wine, Lan Yu vented all his dissatisfaction and said: "You have also seen what happened today. I have good intentions. What does he mean?! When I was 13 years old, I followed my brother-in-law to conquer the world. For more than 20 years, Yes, life and death."

"As for him, he is pampered and goes out with the army this time. He just wants to share the credit with me and rely on my merit to become the king. I take care of him and let him stay in the rear. I fight the battle for him. What else does he want? !”

"I gave him a horse, and he actually bit me back. Why did he treat me like this, just because he has a good father?!"

The deputy general turned pale after hearing Lan Yu's words.

"General, please be careful. These words can only be spoken to me, the last general. You must never say them to anyone else."

If you want to die, forget it, don't harm me.

At this point, the lieutenant is still very aware of the importance.

Yangzhou.

"Did you hear about the great victory in Liaodong, Duke Yang?" Lu Mingyi asked.

Yang Xian nodded with a smile and said, "His Majesty personally conferred the title of Duke Lan Yuliang and gave him iron coupons at the great court meeting. I don't think it's hard not to know."

Lan Yu's defeat of Liaodong can be said to be the biggest event in the first seven years of Hongwu.

Now it has already been rumored.

Seeing the relaxed look on Yang Xian's face, Lu Mingyi was a little indignant and said: "Whether it was General Mu Ying and others' conquest of Yunnan before, or Lan Yu's expedition to Liaodong, all of this was based on Yang Guogong's plan to purge Mobei. Under the premise.”

"It is precisely because you eliminated Mobei and made the remnants of the Northern Yuan forces in Yunnan and Liaodong rootless, that their conquest was so smooth. Not to mention, the various new types of gunpowder firearms used by the army today are all from you. Invented. Even so, I heard that our army suffered quite a lot of casualties this time."

"General Mu Ying can only be granted the title of Marquis of Nanzhen. He, Lan Yu, is so virtuous and capable that he can be named a Duke just like you, Duke Yang."

Looking at the indignant Lu Mingyi, Yang Xian smiled and said: "The reason why Lan Yu was named a Duke this time is not just because of his achievements in pacifying Liaodong. The more reason is that Huaixi Xun You nobles, you need Lan Yu to take the title of Duke, and the Emperor also needs him to take the position of Duke."

Yang Xian can see this clearly.

Li Shanchang can see clearly, Liu Bowen can see clearly.

It's just Lan Yu who can't see clearly. Lan Yu really thinks that he has achieved heavenly merit.

Yang Xian shook his head and said: "But it's a pity. I think with Lan Yu's temperament, I'm afraid he will let down the hard work of His Majesty and Mr. Han."

The voice just fell.

A guard came in from outside the door and reported: "Your Majesty, His Highness the Second Prince has entered the city."

"Second Prince? Didn't he go out with Lan Yu in this expedition to Liaodong? Lan Yu has already dealt with the aftermath so quickly and led the army back?" Lu Mingyi looked confused on his face and spoke. asked.

The corners of Yang Xian's mouth raised slightly, revealing a smile.

I'm afraid that I'm going to be unlucky.
