little emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 252 Authorization

Chapter 252 Authorization
Starting from the end of May, the urgent memorial of the governor of Liaodong opened the curtain of Japan's invasion of Korea, and then the battle reports were handed up one after another. The commander was the first to launch an attack, breaking through Busan in just one hour!After that, the whole road was like a broken bamboo, and it took only half a month to attack Seoul. The second army Kato Kiyomasa and the third army Kuroda Nagamasa immediately followed up and defeated Pyongyang in one go.

The king of North Korea, Li Zan, fled in a hurry. He went to the Yalu River to show his court one after another.

I don't know whether it was intentional or not, Uncle Ning Yuan and Li Chengliang assembled a heavy army, standing on the shore, as if watching the fire from the other side, and at the same time issued a death order, anyone who dared to forcefully cross the river, etc., will be killed without mercy!

When the news spread to the other side, the Korean royal family panicked.Seeing that there were chasing soldiers in front of him, there was no way to retreat, and the whole country had lost seven roads. Li Yan was so anxious that he wanted to jump into the river to commit suicide. Fortunately, Liu Chenglong, the Minister of State and Political Affairs, stopped him.Although people cannot cross the river, but there is no one to stop them, Li Yan had no choice but to go up to the table one after another, and finally shouted directly: "Rather die at the hands of thieves, I would rather die in the country of my parents!"

After the news reached the capital, the court was in an uproar.

When they first received the battle report, many ministers in the DPRK and China did not take it seriously. Most people's first reaction was that the Japanese pirates must be poor and crazy. It is not enough to harass Ming Dynasty for decades, and they even robbed North Korea?Everyone on the earth knows that North Korea is a place with poor mountains and bad waters. It is a place where you can't even eat enough. Japanese pirates have nothing to snatch when they go.So many optimists believe that there is no need to make a fuss, and it will not take long for the Japanese pirates to retreat after grabbing a few ginseng.

But people who hold this kind of thinking quickly become dumb, and the ensuing Korean war all show that Japan is going to play for real this time!They are not just going to grab ginseng, but want to eat North Korea!This appetite was too great, and it immediately caused the unanimous anger of almost all the courtiers. North Korea is a vassal state of Ming Dynasty, and Daming is not willing to say it yet. You are a magic horse.

All of a sudden, there was a lot of discussion between the court and the central government, and everyone was unanimous in shouting and beating, but they were very divided on how to fight.One side, represented by Shi Xing, Minister of the Ministry of War, advocated leading troops to fight across the river.On the one hand, Xu Honggang jumped out to oppose the matter given by the Ministry of War, advocating that it is enough to defend against the enemy at the gate of the country, and there is no need to make a big fuss.

The two had different views, and they fought evenly, and the quarrel was like thunder and fire, and even a respected old-school elder like Shen Shixing couldn't hold back.Zhu Changluo saw all this, but watched coldly, neither speaking nor expressing his position.

Until this day, Huang Jin appeared in front of his eyes with a cautious face. Seeing Huang Jin hesitated to speak but stopped talking, Zhu Changluo suddenly laughed. The sunny face on his face made Huang Jin who ordered him to enter the palace messed up. I was at a loss.

Even the color of the sun in June is white, and the scorching high temperature seems to be able to bake the stones into smoke.Despite the scorching heat outside, the Qianqing Palace was not affected at all.In the middle of the hall, there are several large pastel vats with yellow dragons playing in the water, and there are layers of white ice like mountains, making the whole hall feel cool and indescribably comfortable.

In Wanli's eyes, he found that Zhu Changluo, who was saluting, seemed to be a little darker and thinner compared to the previous few days. He couldn't help feeling a little undetectable heartache, and hummed softly: "Get up."

"I heard that many places in North Korea have fallen. Li Yan asked to cross the river for refuge. The court made a fuss over this matter, and you..." At this point, Wanli's voice became serious, and the majesty of the king of a country appeared : "This is such a major national event, and it also involves the safety of the country. How dare you take it lightly and delay the important event!"

This last sentence already has the meaning of questioning guilt. If it were someone else, they would already be terrified at this time, but Zhu Changluo did not panic in the slightest. ?”

Wanli glared at him, vented his dissatisfaction just now, the gloom in his heart dissipated a little, and his mood improved a lot, he opened his mouth and said, "I only have four words: dead lips and cold teeth!"

These four words are enough to reveal Wanli's attitude without a doubt, and also make the smile on Zhu Changluo's face disappear instantly. Wanli's words are like a fire, instantly igniting the uncontrollable excitement in his heart that has been hidden for a long time. ... For so many days, this is what he has been waiting for.

The change in his expression could not escape Wanli's eyes. For some reason, Wanli suddenly felt like being lured into a pit by this kid, but the strange thing is that instead of being annoyed, he was also somewhat pleased: "Japan's ambitions are not limited to Once North Korea is successfully annexed, it will definitely intensify when its strength increases greatly! It is advisable to send troops quickly to wipe out the enemy in North Korea, otherwise it will not cause future troubles in the border!"

As soon as these words were finished, Zhu Changluo had already responded with applause, his eyes sparkling: "Father, the emperor is wise! My son was still worried that the father would be abused by those mediocre officials, thinking that he would keep the enemy out of the country and let them make trouble Shaking the sky, what have we to do with the Ming Dynasty!" At this point, Zhu Changluo's black and white eyes flickered, and his eyes were as sharp as a falcon: "They don't know the ambition of wolves, and destroying the dynasty is not the result, but gaining enlightenment is the goal!"

Ever since he ascended the throne, Wanli has heard too many compliments in his life, but he also knows that the compliments from the heart are almost zero. Now that he can get the sincere praise from his most valued son, he feels that his body has grown wings in an instant , if it wasn't for the armrest of the dragon chair that was tightly squeezed with his hands, he could fly away just by flapping his wings.

Suppressing the surprise in my heart, I coughed to cover up my gaffe: "Since you know all this in your heart, why haven't you done anything so far?"

Facing Wanli's accountability, Zhu Changluo suddenly stood in front of Wanli, raised his hands above his head and knelt down, knocking his head respectfully to the ground.Such a big gift suddenly made Wanli feel frightened for a moment, and he frowned and said, "Okay, what are you doing?"

His lowered head was facing Zhu Changluo's upturned face. Wanli suddenly found that this son had not only darkened, but also grown a lot. The remaining childishness of his face was completely treated by heroism, and his handsome features became more and more prominent. So handsome... After being startled, Wanli couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this son has really grown up.

"My son wants to ask my father one thing, I wonder if my father will grant it?"

Wanli couldn't help but glanced at him again, and found that the latter's eyes were shining brightly, shining like stars.Knowing that in the next moment, speaking from this boy's mouth might be something that he would not agree to, but under his eyes, Wanli found that he seemed to be unable to refuse any request from him, so he moved his head helplessly, He warned: "If you are reasonable, I will naturally answer you." Although his expression was stern, the pampering in his tone was clearly revealed.

Zhu Changluo was overjoyed, took out a memorial that he had prepared a long time ago from his bosom, and handed it up respectfully, "Father please read it, what my son wants to say and what he wants to do, everything is clearly written here It is clear, if the emperor trusts the son, the son guarantees that there will be unexpected joy."

For a moment, there was no sound in the hall, and even the faint and imperceptible crackling sound when the white ice in the ice basin melted could be heard clearly.

Zhu Changluo lowered his eyes halfway, through the long eyelashes like rain curtains, he could see the expression on Wanli's face who was watching the memorial.

"Come here!" After an unknown amount of time, Wanli's low shout echoed in the hall.

Huang Jin, who had been guarding outside the hall all this time, pushed the door in and said cautiously, "Your Majesty, what do you want?"

Ignoring Huang Jin's words, Wanli, whose expression was no longer calm, lowered his head and quickly read the memorial again. His previously frowning brows suddenly eased. He raised his head and looked at Zhu Changluo with a strange radiance in his eyes. "It turns out that these days, you are busy with these things!"

Compared with the agitated Wanli, Zhu Changluo seemed much calmer, and said loudly: "Yes, I will tell my father, it's just that the fire is not ready now, but the situation has arrived! My son dare not miss the opportunity, so I ask my father to give me some help." Son supports!"

Although there is only one word difference between erchen and son, the meaning is quite different.Staring at him deeply for a few moments, Wanli suddenly raised his head and laughed loudly: "Dow eyebrows, lower eyebrows, how can you ask me to thank you, you left me a treasure!"

When he heard the word low eyebrow, Zhu Changluo, who seemed to be stunned by Lei Zhen, was stunned, and Huang Jin's reaction was even greater. Even his voice was a little bad, and he didn't care about presumptuousness, and hurried forward to stop the conversation: "Your Majesty, be careful! Word!"

Completely ignoring Huang Jin's stop, Wanli's laughter, immersed in the thoughts of the past, gradually stopped, until the gentle nostalgic look on his face was gradually replaced by sad thoughts, and he suddenly sighed: "Huang Jin, draw up the decree!"

Huang Jin, who was crying secretly at the side, was thinking about how to deal with the aftermath. In the palace, the word "low eyebrows" has always been a taboo word. The emperor's random words at this moment, if it spreads to the queen mother, it will definitely cause another disturbance.When he was hesitating about recruiting, he was surprised by the emperor's roar, which made him tremble in fright, and quickly agreed: "The old servant is here, the emperor will give you instructions."

"Immediately convey my will: tell the six ministries of the cabinet, civil and military officials, that from today on, all matters related to the Korean War, no matter how big or small, will be decided by the crown prince with full power, and any decision made will be the same as my decision."

Zhu Changluo knew the weight of this decree, and Huang Jin knew it even more.

He is now the prince of the supervisor, but he is nothing more than a supervisor; there is a cabinet to deal with internal affairs, and when it comes to military and state affairs, it must be reported to Emperor Wanli before it can be implemented.But after this decree was issued, everything will be different again. This prince is already the real uncrowned king.Thinking of this, Huang Jin glanced at Zhu Changluo who was standing proudly in awe, and bowed in fear and respect: "This old servant will obey His Majesty's will."

After he turned around and went out, Wanli turned his head to look at Zhu Changluo, his eyes were full of kindness and strong hope: "Although you are not young, you are wise and wise, and your wit and strategy are something I have never seen in my life. I remember that when I was a child, the emperor once I have told me about the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and I have always remembered the words that the Three Kingdoms are the best among the kings, that the former emperors only respected Sun Quan of the Eastern Wu, and that children should be like Sun Zhongmou!"

Hearing his true feelings, Zhu Changluo felt that there was a sore and hot air in his body jumping up and down, but he couldn't express his happiness in his heart. Some words almost reached his throat, and he couldn't spit it out. Some red.

"I have a son like you, and I have the face to go to my ancestors when I enter the ancestral mausoleum in the future!" Handing the memorial in his hand to Zhu Changluo, as if sighing deeply from the bottom of his heart, he said, "Just let it go, I only have a few A word for you."

From the beginning to now, Zhu Changluo's heart has been beating wildly, and he knelt down on his knees: "Please teach me a lesson."

Wanli nodded with satisfaction: "Take a look at the size and plan it, distribute it according to the urgency, connect it up and down, and implement it according to the internal and external."

Seeing Zhu Changluo silently reciting these words, Wanli waved his hands and smiled: "Go back and think about it carefully, and end this war with peace of mind. After I settle one matter on my mind, I will pass on your position to you at that time!"

Seeing that Zhu Changluo was dumbfounded and seemed to have something to say, Wanli stood up and walked away without even listening to him: "I have made up my mind, you don't need to say more, just go back and do what you have to do. .”

Under the beating lights, Zhu Changluo's face looked gloomy and uncertain, and his expression was even more joyful and sad. He didn't even notice when Ye He came in.

Ye He came here because Wang An felt that something was wrong in the trance of His Highness the Crown Prince returned from Qianqing Palace, so he decided to go to Baohua Palace to find Ye He.

When he came in, what he saw was Zhu Changluo's absent-minded look, he looked at it quietly for a moment, and asked, "What happened?"

Zhu Changluo, who woke up like a dream, came back to his senses, saw that it was Ye He, sighed inaudibly, and said with a smile: "It's nothing."

Ye He reached out to pick up the memorial from the case, read it after a few glances, and frowned: "Japan is attacking North Korea? You want to attack Japan?"

The two have known each other for a long time, and with just one look and one expression, Zhu Changluo has seen clearly what Ye He is thinking, pointing to the memorial, and mockingly said: "You won't be like those guys in the past, who are also in Ye He's heart." Do you think I'm worrying about nothing?"

Ye He's calm expression became twitchy in an instant, and he turned his head away: "You know?"

Zhu Changluo hated Tiebucheng and gave him a hard look: "Your small thoughts can't escape my eyes!"

His eyes moved to the distance, and the fire of excitement flickered and danced quietly, as if he was infected by his emotions. Ye He was also a little inexplicably excited, and he heard Zhu Changluo's ethereal and distant voice as if it came from outside the sky, and he heard every word clearly: " Ye He, do you know... I have put in a lot of effort and prepared for so long, and for the first time I feel that it has paid off, and I am really happy."

Ye He stared at him blankly. Although he didn't understand what he was talking about at all, it didn't prevent him from being deeply moved by Zhu Changluo. Although he didn't know what he had experienced in Qianqing Palace, he knew that Zhu Changluo was at the moment. He was already extremely fragile, and maybe if he said a word casually, he would be broken like jade and porcelain, completely shattered and collapsed.

 Happy Sunday everyone!Continue to ask for tickets~~
