At the gate of Weelumu's city, Zhu Zhanyi looked at the mighty returning team from the distance on the city wall. The army from the Western Expedition finally returned after leaving behind guards and managers to guard the city.
The weather is cold today, and the sandstorm is coming again. Fortunately, it has already arrived, so there is no need to worry about the sandstorm outside the Great Wall.
Zara and Aliya followed him, Zara looked eagerly, a little impatient.
But according to previous news, Zara's father died of an old illness after he and the Ming Dynasty allied forces captured Kashgar. This time it was his brother who came to visit the Ming Dynasty.
Yin and Yang are separated, but it is enough to be happy to see old friends.
As the team approached, Zhu Zhanzhen stood up and said, "Let's go down together to greet them."
Horse hooves raised dust, and the army returned. Zhu Gaoxu was riding a tall horse with great majesty. Naturally, Zhu Zhanzhen would not let go of these opportunities to show off. His horse was the trophy of this time, a bloody horse.
The golden hair shines in the sun, the limbs are slender, the skin is thin and the hair is thin, and the pace is light. It is an impossibly good horse.
Such a sweat-blooded horse can be sold for hundreds of taels of gold, and if it is in good condition, it can even reach a thousand gold. It is also a symbol of status. Waisi Khan of the Chagatai Khanate himself is a loyal lover of sweat-blooded horses, so his sweat-blooded horse
There are no fewer than ten BMWs.
Among them, the one with the best quality was given to the emperor first. Of course, Zhu Gaoxu and the Crown Prince also prepared one. Although the two of them fought, Zhu Gaoxu still knew how to do it for the sake of face.
Zhu Zhanchen took one and gave one to Zhu Zhanzhen, and the rest naturally went to Prince Han, so even if he is not riding now, he is the one who has the most blood on the horse.
Next to Zhu Zhanchun was a young man from Timur's empire, in his mid-twenties, who dismounted with them.
"Second uncle, second brother, you have worked hard. A celebration banquet has been prepared in the city to welcome you and wash away the dust."
"Everyone has contributed to this great victory. Come here, Zhan, I'll give you this horse. This is a bloody horse." Zhu Gaoxu laughed and led a horse over. After so many years of fighting, he naturally knows the importance of logistical supplies.
Sex, and this time Zhu Zhanzhen had to maintain such a long-term supply. If it weren't for Zhu Zhanzhen and the others, they would not have been able to fight so smoothly, so Zhu Zhanzhen's share was naturally indispensable.
"Thank you, uncle."
Zhu Gaoxu introduced the Timurid young man behind him and said: "This is Benjie, the younger brother of the new emperor of the Timurid Empire, and the second brother of your concubine Zara. This time he will come with us back to Beijing to pay a visit and reconnect with each other."
The Silk Road of the Western Regions.”
Looking at his second uncle, and then at Zara, Zara was a little emotional, but because it was a public place, she couldn't express the love between brother and sister, so she endured it.
"Meet His Highness the Prince of Zhujiang County." Banjie did not have the posture of a prince of a country, and they were not allowed to have any posture in front of the Ming Dynasty.
"Prince Benjie is too polite. I heard Zara talking about you a long time ago. You two brothers and sisters will have a good time catching up on old times later." Zhu Zhanzhen led everyone inside: "Today is the day of the army's triumphant victory. It is a day of great joy. There is no need to be like this.
No more red tape, my second uncle and my second brother are having fun today."
"You finally have your wits about you." Zhu Gaoxu burst out laughing.
After fighting for such a long time, people are not allowed to have fun or amuse themselves. Music continues to be played, and dancing continues.
On this day, the whole city of Veru was full of music, play, clinking of wine bottles, and the laughter of girls. It was a scene of singing and dancing, bliss and prosperity.
When Prince Benjie and Zara brother and sister met, Zara burst into tears: "Second brother, father...father..."
"My father originally wanted to come to Daming to see his son-in-law in person, but his old illness suddenly recurred, and he passed away just a few days after the war calmed down. Before he died, he specifically asked me and my eldest brother to come to Daming to see how you were doing."
As he spoke, he glanced at Zhu Zhanyi and said, "Seeing that your husband treats you so well, I think my father will be very happy if he knows how to treat you."
"Second brother...wow wow" Zara cried, things have changed and people are separated forever.
In fact, it can be seen from Zara's character that when she was in the country, her father and brother must have been very good to her. Only a happy childhood can make her carefree and lively and cheerful.
Oppression and suffering, her character may look like Lee Hyo Joo.
The relationship was deep and the brother and sister talked a lot.
Then the second uncle said: "His Royal Highness the Prince of Zhujiang County."
"Second uncle, please call me Zhanren from now on, so that the whole family won't have to be polite."
"I'd better call you Your Highness."
They looked at each other and smiled: "Your Highness, the Chagatai Khanate is no longer obstructing the relationship between the Ming Dynasty and our Timurid Empire. My brother heard that Your Highness wants to reopen the Silk Road. We also have the same intention and hope to reopen trade with the Ming Dynasty.
"
"Our Majesty also has the same intention. Since both parties have no objections, when we arrive at Shuntian Mansion, your envoys and our people will discuss the details and then the Silk Road can be opened again. Another point is that we, the Ming Dynasty, hope that the Silk Road
Not only the Timur Empire will be unblocked, but all countries going west will be unblocked, I hope my second uncle will know."
"Natural, natural."
As long as trade is smooth, Timur's empire can make a lot of money just by collecting customs duties, but Zhu Zhanzhen reminded him that you can charge them, but you can't charge them too high, because you can't block our Ming Dynasty's trade route.
Zhu Zhanzhen wanted the Silk Road to go further west.
The second uncle's attitude towards Ming Dynasty was very friendly. After watching Ming Dynasty defeat Chagatai, he understood that Ming Dynasty was an enemy that he could not fight against, so he must have a good relationship with Ming Dynasty.
"Your Highness, if you have time, I hope you can visit our Timur Empire. Our scenery is also very beautiful."
"When I have free time, I will take Zara back to visit my first uncle and second uncle."
Zhu Zhanzhen's words made Zara feel that she might still have a chance to go back to the place where she grew up.
After chatting about the business, Prince Benjie suddenly said to Zara in a serious voice: "Zara, since you have officially married His Highness the Prince of Pearl River County, you should have children with His Highness as soon as possible, and don't still have the playful temperament you had when you were a child.
.”
Zara blushed. The Timur Empire naturally hoped that Zara would give birth to Zhu Zhanchen's son as soon as possible, so that the relationship would be stronger.
When talking about this matter, Zhu Zhanzhen began to doubt. Why didn't his brothers have any intention of having children? Is there something wrong? He was fine. It had only been a year since they got married, but Zhu Zhanji had been married for several years.
Zhu Zhanyong's time is not short, and both brothers are hard-working and hard-working people, so logically speaking, they shouldn't.
Besides, I didn’t have any measures, it was just my inner self, and I didn’t respond.
On the contrary, Zhu Zhanquan already has two children.
According to history books, Zhu Zhanji only had a son when he was in his twenties, so there wouldn't be any problems with his brothers.
Just when Zhu Zhanchen was deep in thought, his second uncle sent someone to find him and have a drink with Prince Benjie.
The two left, and Zara blushed and said to Aliya: "Aliya, can you let His Highness go to my house more often." Because Aliya has been clinging to Zhu Zhanxing, Zara didn't get much time during this time.
Zara didn't think anything of it at first, but after being reminded by her second brother, she really couldn't be overtaken by others.
Alia smiled and said: "That's not possible, I want to be with His Highness."
"Then you can't stick to His Highness all the time."
"How about you consider us serving His Highness together?"
"Ah?" Zara blushed instantly: "Aliya, what are you talking about?"
Alia is not as shy as Zara: "I said when I heard men tell dirty jokes in the military camp, many men like this."
