If you want to say what Zhu Youxiao hated the most in the past, I am afraid that the morning court will be one of them. You have to get up before dawn every day. This is a torture for most people, of course, except for model workers like Comrade Zhu Chongba.

But today is an exception, because today, Yang Feng, the Marquis of Jiangning in the Ming Dynasty, is back.

In the early morning, before dawn, Zhu Youxiao got up early, started washing up under the servitude of Queen Zhang Yan, and even put on a brand new rolling suit and wore a winged crown.

Looking at the husband with a smile on his face, even Zhang Yan, who was a wife, couldn't help but joke: "Your Majesty, the sun is coming out today. You who were most annoying to get up early in the past are so happy to laugh."

"Haha..." Zhu Youxiao laughed and said proudly: "Zi Tong, you don't know anything. I haven't seen Yang Aiqing for more than half a year. Naturally, I miss Yang Aiqing very much. Besides, I still have many things to ask Yang Aiqing for advice."

"That's right." Zhang Yan also nodded: "It just so happened that all the movies sent by Marquis Jiangning last time have been watched. Concubine Liang and Concubine Hui and the others have already told me several times. This time, when Marquis Jiangning came back, he just asked him to send some movies back."

Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but sweat when he heard this. As the Marquis of Jiangning, Yang Feng was so busy on weekdays. His queen and several concubines were only concerned about letting others deliver movies. If this spread was spread, it would probably cause criticism again.

For fear that his wife would make any "amazing" remarks, Zhu Youxiao quickly said, "Okay, Zitong, I'm going to the morning court now. I'll talk about anything when I come back."

After saying that, Zhu Youxiao left the door in a flash.

Although the morning court is disgusting for many people, it still makes many people flock to it. In a clichéd phrase, it is painful and happy. After all, for officials, it represents a kind of identity to attend morning court, so when the time comes, the Golden Palace is full of officials.

When it was dawn, Yang Feng finally arrived in the city after half a year of separation. He strode to the Golden Palace in a kilin robe and black hat.

"Marquis Jiangning, Yang Feng, the Grand Governor of the South of the Conquest, arrived!"

With the voice of the Han general in front of the palace, everyone's eyes looked at Yang Feng who was strode.

In the eyes of Yang Feng, there were curiosity, relief, disgust, and of course disdain. When Yang Feng looked at Zhu Youxiao sitting on the dragon throne, he saw a pair of joyful and warm gazes.

Yang Feng pushed the golden mountain and turned over to Zhu Youxiao like a jade pillar: "My memory... Yang Feng bowed to Your Majesty, I wish my emperor a long life!"

"My dear please get up!"

After Yang Feng stood up, Zhu Youxiao looked at Yang Feng for a while before nodding with relief: "I haven't seen you for a long time, and I am very relieved!"

"Thank you for your concern!" Yang Feng said respectfully: "Thank you for your wrong love, and I have entrusted you with important tasks. Now I am here to report your victory to Your Majesty. Just ten days ago, I have led the Fujian Navy to wipe out the Zheng pirates.

In this battle, a total of 65 enemy ships were sunk, injured in Countless, 75 ships were captured, 3,867 people were captured, and the enemy was killed. Zheng Zhilong and Zheng Zhihu were shot dead, and only Zheng Zhibao led more than ten warships to flee. Now our Ming Dynasty officers and soldiers have occupied Zheng Zhilong's old nest, Bengang! I have lived up to His Majesty's entrusted and finally wiped out Zheng Chenggong and his pirates. I come to report to His Majesty!"

After Yang Feng said this, the officials in the Golden Palace seemed to have made an appointment and said in unison: "I am congratulating you on your Majesty!"

"Okay... OK"

Although Zhu Youxiao received the good news from Yang Feng two days ago, after hearing the person involved report to him in person, he still smiled so hard that he stood up from the dragon throne and said with a smile: "I'm please come up quickly. It's a great blessing for me to have my help. Please return to my rank!"

"Thank you for your praise!"

After hearing this, Yang Feng stepped back to the front of the generals on the right and stood in front of the train.

Although there are several nobles like Dukes and Marquis behind him, it is not his turn to stand in front, but Yang Feng doesn't care. You have all stood full. Could it be that I will stand at the end? Besides, although he is just a marquis now, if he uses power to count the entire Ming Dynasty, no one can surpass him.

However, when Yang Feng stood still, he found that there were still several gazes on the left. When he looked over, he found that the civil servant he had known had disappeared, and replaced by several new faces. Seeing Yang Feng looking over, some of these people smiled, some had hostility in their eyes, and some were thinking.

Zhu Youxiao smiled and said to Yang Feng, "Yang Aiqing, I must reward you for making such great achievements. Later, you will send the list of the soldiers who have made meritorious contributions to the Ministry of War. After the Ministry of War reviews, the court will naturally give it a reward. As for your Aiqing, I really want to know what reward you want? As long as I can do it, just mention it?"

As soon as Zhu Youxiao finished his words, many officials' expressions changed. Zhu Youxiao favored Yang Feng too much, so how could he make such a wish? If Yang Feng asked to split the land and be named a marquis, wouldn't the emperor allow it?

As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Feng saw a civil servant standing behind Gu Bingqian with a square face and looked square, saying respectfully: "I think it is indeed gratifying to you, my thoughts that Zheng Zhilong's execution is indeed a blessing, but the reward of Jiangning Hou can be put on the back. After all, there are more important things to do now."

When Zhu Youxiao saw that the person frowned, he asked helplessly: "It turns out it was Han Aiqing. I wonder what the more important thing Han Aiqing said is?"

This person who stood up was nothing else, and Han Du, who had just served as the Grand Secretary of the Son.

Han Yu said, "Your Majesty, Jiangning Hou led the Jiangning army to Fujian for two years. The money and food spent by the army outside every day was really huge. According to what the old ministers saw, the Jiangning army should also withdraw from Fujian and return to Nanjing headquarters, right?"

"Retreat?"

The officials in the hall were stunned, but there were no fools who could stand here. After a turn of his mind, he immediately thought of the reason. Although Han Yu said this on the surface, he was afraid that the army would spend too much money and food, but the meaning in his words was that the army would be away for a long time, and this Marquis of Jiangning would have some bad ambitions.

Zhu Youxiao raised his brows and was about to speak, but Yang Feng opposed it: "What this lord said is a bad thing. Although the pirates led by Zheng Zhilong are already clear, there are still many Dutch people entrenched on Taiwan Island. These red-haired ghosts even built a city of Relan Cha in the south. They wanted to use this as a springboard to invade our Ming Dynasty's borders. How could the army easily withdraw at this moment?"
