Chapter 480: His Majesty, the General, and the Female Prisoner of the Northern Yuan Dynasty

The East Warm Pavilion was as bright as day, and the air was filled with a faint scent of sandalwood.

Liu Jin happened to deliver tea, but he met the angry Emperor Hongzhi, and was so scared that he knelt on the ground.

Zhu Youtang saw Liu Jin kneeling on the ground, and he seemed to be very angry: "I will not go to Kunning Palace tonight, and arrange for the Northern Concubine to come to Qianqing Palace to sleep with me!"

"As ordered, I will arrange it now!" Liu Jin's strength is always to be able to put himself in the right position, and he immediately expressed his attitude respectfully.

Zhu Youtang looked at Liu Jin who hurriedly left to do business, and then he picked up the teacup on the table and drank it, and quickly adjusted his mood.

The Mongolian cavalry raided Jizhen, which is the top priority of the Ming Dynasty. Now he, the emperor, needs to deal with this Mongolian raid immediately.

Although the raid was carried out by the Mongolian cavalry, in fact, this matter cannot be blamed entirely on Manduhai.

Since Dayan Khan was killed by herself, although Manduhai regained power and successfully supported her young son to sit on the throne of Khan, she was a woman with a young son after all.

In these years, the situation in Mongolia has actually changed subtly.

Manduhai protected the healthy growth of the four-year-old Dayan Khan, and helped Dayan Khan establish enough prestige since childhood. She not only helped Dayan Khan fabricate military exploits, but also cultivated him into a potential generation of grassland overlords, which undoubtedly proved her ability.

It's just that no matter how capable you are, it's hard to fight against heaven.

She was originally ready to retire and hand over her power to Dayan Khan, but after Dayan Khan was beheaded by the Ming Dynasty, the successor she had worked so hard to cultivate died like this.

Although God still favored her and let her give birth to Dayan Khan's son, thus continuing the last bloodline of the Golden Family, the situation is actually very different.

After experiencing all kinds of chaos, the Mongolian tribes were extremely disgusted with the rule of non-Golden Family members, so they really looked forward to a descendant of the Golden Family to restore the glory of the Yuan Dynasty.

Like the Three Kingdoms period, there were also many people who hoped to restore the Han Dynasty, so they all chose to support Liu Huangshu.

For this expectation, they wanted to witness the glory of the Yuan Dynasty during the Golden Family period, and they also waited for Dayan Khan for twelve years.

But what did they get in return for twelve years of waiting?

Dayan Khan did not say that he would restore the glory of the Yuan Dynasty, but was easily killed by the Ming Dynasty.

On the other hand, the Ming Dynasty ushered in a wise and ambitious emperor. Now the Ming Dynasty is becoming more and more powerful, and even they have lost the confidence to return to the Central Plains.

That's right, even if Dayan Khan left offspring, but their expectations of Dayan Khan were still in front of them. How could they be willing to spend another sixteen years to let the only descendant of the Golden Family bring them back to the glory of the Yuan Dynasty?

Moreover, there are too many variables in sixteen years!

Not to mention that the Ming Dynasty might implement a decapitation plan again, and the conditions on the grassland have always been bad. Who can guarantee that their children can grow up smoothly?

Although Manduhai is still in charge of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, the days in recent years are not easy, and the contradictions within the Northern Yuan Dynasty are getting bigger and bigger.

Not only do more and more tribes no longer obey Manduhai's arrangements, but they have begun to disobey in public and even have the intention of seizing the Khan's throne.

On the other hand, Manduhai's policy of living in harmony with the Ming Dynasty has also been dissatisfied by many Mongolian nobles.

Over the years, Mongolia has continued to obtain living supplies from the Ming Dynasty, and they have also supplied a large number of horses, cattle and sheep to everyone. It can't be said that anyone has taken advantage.

Especially after the Ming Dynasty obtained horses, horses and sheep, it also greatly strengthened the productivity of society, and with the help of horses, it has also improved the transportation capacity of society.

It's just that the harmony between the two countries has also infringed on the interests of many Mongolian nobles.

They used to get a lot of living supplies from the Ming Dynasty "for free" through looting activities, but now they need to pay real money.

As time went on, the Mongolian nobles naturally had strong dissatisfaction, and they hoped to obtain the living materials of the Ming Dynasty for free through looting.

It is precisely because of this that the relationship between the Ming Dynasty and Mongolia deteriorated again, and there is a certain inevitability.

The oil lamp gradually died, and a new lamp was added.

After Niu Mengmeng became the maid in charge of the Qianqing Palace, although she still had a pink baby face, she was quite capable in her work. Whether it was taking care of the kitten or managing the lights, she could do it in an orderly manner.

Suddenly noticing that Zhu Youtang wanted to write, she hurried forward and began to grind ink for Zhu Youtang.

With just the right amount of force, the ancient ink and clear water slowly merged into one, and there was a faint scent of ink in the air.

Zhu Youtang dipped the wolf-hair brush in the inkstone and began to write instructions: "The Shield Battalion goes north to defend against the enemy. The Liaodong and Xuanfu reinforcements will join the Ji army to encircle the Ji people. The primary task is to protect the people of Ji. Yibulain and his Yongxiebu tribe will be killed!"

The leader of the tribe that went south to raid Jizhen this time was not Manduhai, but Yibulain, the master of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, who had recently announced his separation from Manduhai.

Yibulain was the leader of the Yongxiebu tribe on the right wing of Eastern Mongolia. After the same group of Grand Masters, Qia Silan and Yisimayin, were successively eliminated, he succeeded the Northern Yuan Grand Master and controlled 30,000 households on the right wing of Eastern Mongolia.

Originally, he was subservient to Manduhai, but after Dayan Khan was assassinated, his ambitions were gradually exposed.

He was well-behaved in the past few years, but after he gradually controlled Eastern Mongolia, he no longer took the child Khan seriously and even openly sang against Manduhai.

Perhaps because of the old friendship, or perhaps because there was not much money to be made on Manduhai's side, he set his sights on the Ming Dynasty, but suddenly marched south to invade Jizhen.

Zhu Youtang didn't care whether Yibulain had rebelled against Manduhai or not, he needed to deal with the current raid at this moment, and decided to put the lives and property of the people of Jizhen first.

That's why he chose a conservative approach, and forced Yibulain's cavalry to stop going south, or even return to the desert, by using his superior military strength.

He certainly didn't leave Yibulain alone, but drove him out first, and this account could be settled slowly outside the pass.

This strategy was actually consistent with the opinion of the Military Affairs Office. Now the Ming Dynasty was obviously not well prepared, and Jizhen was the gateway to the capital, so it was necessary to be vigilant against the Ming Dynasty's underestimation of the enemy and rash advances, which would cause the situation to become chaotic.

The lamp oil was burning slowly, and the lights here became brighter as the night deepened.

Zhu Youtang was a diligent emperor. In addition to dealing with the Mongolian cavalry raids in Jizhen, he also had to deal with various matters in the two capitals and thirteen provinces.

The locust plague in Shandong has obviously achieved good results. After repeated observations by local officials in Shandong, there is a high probability that there will be no locust plague this year.

That night, the night sky was dotted with stars.

Bei Fei came from Changle Palace in a gorgeous dress. Her figure was like a wild lily in the spring breeze. She was stubborn but noble. Her delicate facial features were very attractive, and her eyebrows revealed a unique elegance.

She walked through the long corridor in the main courtyard of the Qianqing Palace and couldn't help but glance at the lights on the East Warm Pavilion. Her face was originally calm like water, but her eyes were more gentle, and her face was even more shallow. Dimples appeared on her face.

She always thought that a man who could shoot the wolf king was a real man, but after marrying into the palace, she really understood that this emperor was many times stronger than those reckless men.

The young man succeeded to the throne and took power step by step.

After cleaning up the dignitaries in the capital, he dealt a heavy blow to the official gentry group in Jiangnan, and continued to strengthen the national strength. Now he has become a veritable overlord of the East.

The gauze curtains around the dragon bed swayed gently, like mist in a dream.

Bei Fei opened her hands, and the maid of Qianqing Palace came forward to undress her, and she was also the woman who had the honor to serve the emperor tonight.

After washing, she walked towards the dragon bed.

Her long hair was casually scattered on the pillow, forming a sharp contrast with the gorgeous brocade quilt, but miraculously blending harmoniously. The delicate face looked softer in the yellow light, and the skin seemed to be coated with a light luster.

She got into the bed skillfully to warm the quilt, and the bedroom was filled with a faint incense, which intertwined with her body fragrance, creating a quiet and warm atmosphere.

Not long after, there was movement outside.

Zhu Youtang, as usual, would return here after handling the government affairs at hand, and the maids and eunuchs around him would help him undress.

Life seemed to be unchanged, but every night was different.

Although each concubine is a beauty, each has its own merits, and Bei Fei has a rare wildness, like a beautiful horse that is difficult to tame.

Bei Fei tonight is obviously different. In addition to a beautiful bangs cut to the eyebrows, her eyes are obviously more charming, and even have a hint of provocation.

"Tonight was originally the Queen's night, but do you know why it's you?" Zhu Youtang came in from outside and said to Yi Ke Gouxi who was already lying on the dragon bed.

Bei Fei shook her head gently, but with a faint smile, she said: "I don't know! But if Bei Yuan offends your majesty, I am willing to vent your anger on your majesty, just like last time!"

As she said that, whether intentionally or unintentionally, the quilt slipped a little, but the spring light was already exposed.

"I was actually impulsive just now, and the matter has nothing to do with you. Please talk to me!" Zhu Youtang is now angry, but he has given up the impulsive idea just now.

Bei Fei nodded gently. In fact, she also knew that her concubine was different after all. Once there was friction between the two countries, she would be on guard.

But she knew that Zhu Youtang had no intention of hurting her. At least he had always scolded her.

As for the punishment Zhu Youtang mentioned, it was just that. She didn't think it was a punishment, and even expected it in her heart.

Bei Fei seemed to be very gentle and leaned on Zhu Youtang. She didn't want her mother to break up with Zhu Youtang, so she asked about the whole story.

After learning that it was Yibulayin who led his troops to raid Jizhen, she couldn't help but put down most of her heart: "Your Majesty, this matter must have nothing to do with my mother. I am willing to use my head as a guarantee!"

"Why do I want your head? I only want your body!" Zhu Youtang's desire had arisen in the unconscious friction, but he stroked her cheek and said.

Bei Fei saw the fire in Zhu Youtang's eyes, but suddenly propped herself up.

Zhu Youtang soon felt a long-lost happiness, and began to suspect that these women must have communicated in private, and now Fan Jinling's unique skills were mastered by Beifei.

Although the raid on Jizhen may have nothing to do with Manduhai, it was Mongolian cavalry that raided Jifu, and there was no mistake about it.

Zhu Youtang liked to gallop on the prairie with Beifei, shouting in the whipping again and again, and then venting the resentment in his heart.

Originally, he had decided to slow down the expansion in the east and north, and instead concentrate the country's resources in the southwest, and open up the Indian Ocean through the development of the southwest.

Unfortunately, Yibulain's surprise attack disrupted his plan, so he had to turn his attention back to the north, and there would be an inevitable war in the north.

Now the Ming Dynasty has a powerful army, and now it has found the treasure seed, so it naturally does not need to compromise with a small Beiyuan master, but to make him pay with blood.

Beifei seemed to have seen through Zhu Youtang's mind, but deliberately provoked: "Your Majesty, General, I am a female captive of Beiyuan, please teach me a lesson!"

Zhu Youtang was originally controlling his strength, but seeing Beifei repeatedly provoking him with words, the beast in his heart seemed to be released.

Facing the deep hatred of Yibulain's bloodbath in Dilianbao, he is not only the monarch of this dynasty, but also a member of China, and he also wants to win glory for the country.

"Your Majesty, General, I am a female captive of Beiyuan, please teach me a lesson!" Beifei seemed particularly excited tonight, but she provoked repeatedly.

She actually had her own selfish motives. Although she was once a princess of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, she was now the Northern Concubine of the Ming Dynasty, and she was more of a woman.

After seeing the Queen and Concubine Jing both pregnant with dragon seeds, she also wanted to give birth to a baby.

Whether it was for the emperor, for herself, or for the integration of the two countries, she had enough reasons to seek the fruition of love.

Tonight, the Northern Concubine's voice was high-pitched and hoarse, and the big cats in the courtyard of the Qianqing Palace seemed to be accustomed to it.

A few days later, Jizhen sent a battle report.

The Jizhen army did not advance rashly, but ordered all places to defend, quietly waiting for reinforcements to arrive, and then encircled and suppressed the Yibulain tribe with its superior military strength.

However, the Yibulain tribe was not numb and arrogant. After looting several bunkers and villages, it chose to avoid the edge of the Ming Dynasty and even left from the collapsed wall.

When the Shield Camp went north, it had a small-scale battle with Yibulain.

Yibulain could not resist the temptation after all, knowing that as long as he broke through the Shield Camp, he could march his troops straight to the capital. Even if he could not take Beijing, it would still raise his reputation in the Northern Yuan Dynasty.

However, he sent out 500 cavalry vanguards to fight, but more than half of them were killed instantly by the Shield Battalion.

He knew that even if he marched south regardless of the consequences, he would have to pay a heavy price. By then, he would not even be able to go back, let alone unify the grassland.

That was why when several reinforcements wanted to encircle him, he quickly returned to the grassland with the looted property.

"Damn rat!"

The reinforcements from Liaodong Army and Xuanfu arrived empty-handed. When they learned that Yibulain had led his men away from another broken wall, they were so angry that they gnashed their teeth and cursed.

In terms of the strength of the border towns, they had actually defeated Yibulain, but after all, there were too few good horses, which made their motivation weaker than that of Yibulain's tribe.

But Yibulain's departure was not the end. The two countries of Ming and Mongolia, which had lived in peace for several years, would usher in a new situation because of this raid.

Originally, the return of Liu Zhang, the Governor of America, with his precious seed was a great joyous event, but the turmoil in Jizhen invisibly diluted this joy.
