In the train station, people come and go.

Suiyuan is the intersection center of the railway, and the train will sail from here to Constantinople, or Cairo.

Under the escort of several guards, Li Laiheng came to the platform of the "Oriental Express", and then he entered the carriage. The reason why he arrived here was because he had something to do.

Is that person really His Majesty?

Haven’t Your Majesty been living in the palace?

How did you get here?

Did you really read it wrong?

Just as Li Laiheng was thinking so much, he walked along the passage towards the most luxurious carriage of the train.

The next moment, he saw the two people standing in the craft for many years, which made Li Laiheng see the difference between the two people at a glance. Their faces were different from those around him. Their expressions were calm, but their eyes were murderous.

Yes, it must be here!

Li Laiheng thought to himself, and he signaled the followers behind him to stop, then walked towards the two of them and said softly.

"The lower-ranking official Babylonian comforted the envoy, and asked to see the Lord."

The man looked at him, then nodded and said with a slant.

"The master is waiting for you."

He is waiting for me?

He knocked on the door and said in front of the private room.

"May I ask, is it Mr. Zhu?"

The knock on the door outside made Zhu Guoqiang sigh and said.

"Come in!"

Unexpectedly, it was exposed here. From the moment Li Laiheng's eyes fell into the crowd, Zhu Guoqiang knew that he had been exposed.

The moment he entered the car, Li Laiheng opened his eyes wide, it was His Majesty!

That's right!

When he was about to salute, he heard His Majesty say.

"No tribute. I left the palace in a confinement, so I don't need to tribute."

"The courtesy cannot be abolished!"

Li Laiheng saluted respectfully.

"See Your Majesty!"

“Sit down,”

Zhu Guoqiang pointed to the sofa in front of him and said.

"Don't be so reserved, this is not your personality."

In fact, Zhu Guoqiang has always had a good impression of Li Laiheng. The reason is that he has never betrayed the national justice. This is enough. As for avenging Chongzhen? Li Zicheng is already dead.

As for the tortured officials? Fortunately, Li Zicheng took action, otherwise Zhu Guoqiang would have to do it himself.

"Your Majesty, I don't know your Majesty's Holy Deity..."

Before Li Laiheng apologized, Zhu Guoqiang waved his hand and said.

"Don't ask for any crime. I've been out of the palace for more than a year. You are the first to discover it!"

It's been more than a year since I left the palace!

Opening his eyes wide, Li Laiheng said in a lost voice.

"Your Majesty, that court..."

The next moment, he remembered that he had been the prince's reign for more than ten years. As for His Majesty, it seemed that he had not left the palace for three or four years.

"Now the world of Ming Dynasty is so big, I always have to go out and take a look!"

Zhu Guoqiang said with a smile.

Now he is used to calling himself "me" instead of calling himself "I" like he used to be.

"In the past year, I have traveled to various countries in the South China and the South China and India. The beauty of the scenery along the way is definitely not something I can experience in the palace. I plan to go to the Egyptian province to see the pyramids, obelisks, and raft on the Nile River..."

Listening to His Majesty’s story, Li Laiheng said directly.

"Your Majesty, please protect me."

"Protection?"

Zhu Guoqiang looked at Li Laiheng in confusion. He was two years older than him. How could he protect him?

In an instant, Zhu Guoqiang understood what he was thinking.

Li Laiheng wanted to protect the enemy, and clearly regarded himself as a hostage. It was to show his openness. After all, he was born as a bandit. If... if there was anything, only if he died first could he be relieved of the crime.

"It's up to you."

Zhu Guoqiang said casually.

Seeing that His Majesty did not refuse, Li Laiheng smiled.

"I have always wanted to go to Cairo for my visit. Thank you for your help."

Well, I actually got a follower who was nearly 80 years old. This is a perfect "Sunset Red Senior Group".

"Say hello to your son so he can't worry."

"Your Majesty, I know."

"Don't call him Your Majesty, just call him brother."

"I dare not cross."

"Then call me!"

"Yes, Master..."

...

“Our mission is to escort the train to Amman safely.”

Lieutenant Du Mingwei said,

"We can get there tomorrow evening."

This was not the first time he said this. Before the train started, he repeated his subordinates' tasks on the platform.

"Our mission is very simple, which is to escort the train to arrive safely. The mission is very simple."

Lieutenant Du Mingwei said.

In fact, in his opinion, this was just a normal task.

A cold wind whistled towards the moon platform. The soldiers all shivered. Lieutenant Du Mingwei glanced at the watch and said.

"Everyone has it, get in the car!"

The carriage hanging behind the express train is an armored carriage. The so-called armor is a ten-mm thick steel plate, which is enough to withstand the latest rifle shooting. There is also a water-cooled machine gun on the top of the carriage.

This is just a very ordinary task.

Finally, as Du Mingwei said, the train set off again.

After the train set off, Zhu Guoqiang and Li Laiheng had a drink and chatted with each other on the train for a long time, and even talked about some old things related to Li Zicheng. It was not until late at night that Zhu Guoqiang, who was a little drunk, returned to the private room.

But he couldn't sleep.

The night was already very deep. Although it was a luxurious car, the sound of the car still made people worry about the country and the people for the rest of their lives. Zhu Guoqiang, who had just given himself a vacation for more than a year, was lying on the 1.5-meter bed in the carriage, unable to sleep with his eyes open. With the moonlight outside the carriage, he looked at the ceiling steadily. Yu'er beside him also woke up. Her older Majesty was still thinking, maybe she was still worrying about the country and the people!

In fact, isn’t it okay to be the crown prince in charge of state affairs now?

Now, Your Majesty, who is worried about the country and the people for the rest of her life, is time for her to enjoy her life. Of course, what makes Yu'er even more satisfied is that Your Majesty is her own now!

Everyone has a little thought.

In fact, even if it is Zhu Guoqiang, he has his own little thoughts.

For example, in Pingguo, it was the fief of Zhu Cilang, the eldest son of Emperor Chongzhen. In the Tianzhu, after decades of management, Zhu Cilang had already developed thousands of miles of land and ruled millions of people. Now Pingguo is quite rich. In the early years, many Chongzhen's old and young men followed him.

When he was pacified, Zhu Guoqiang really seriously considered his name behind him. Although he inherited the throne with a foreign vassal, he was truly ordered to be in danger and turned the tide by a generation of heroes who had fallen. After his death, the temple name must be the Saint Ancestor, and he deserved his name as a Saint Ancestor, not that he was a Saint.

It is because he revived the Ming Dynasty and pushed the country to its peak. The Ming Dynasty's territory was vast and far superior to that of previous dynasties, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment far better than that of previous dynasties. Such civil and military achievements, even if they were Emperor Wu of Han and Tang, could not be compared with him.

Emperor Wu of Han destroyed the country, but only defeated the Huns and opened the Western Regions.

What about Emperor Taizong of Tang? It was just a prosperous era in Kaiyuan.

How could I brag about this "Sage of the Prosperous Era"?

First, the Jiannu was solved, and then the bandits were driven away, allowing the people to enjoy peace, and using overseas immigration to fundamentally solve the food crisis and population pressure of the Ming Dynasty. In the radical overseas expansion, the military victory over the Ottoman Empire further consolidated the Ming Dynasty's international political and military power position, and the Industrial Revolution made the Ming Dynasty an indisputable economic power and a world factory, establishing economic hegemony. The international order under the leadership of the Ming Dynasty was called "peace under the Ming Dynasty". This was an era of the Ming Dynasty.

Who can match such a "Sage Prosperous Age" in all dynasties?
