Chapter 1024: The Royal Conquerors Personal Conquest
Prince Mu is a die-hard loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty.
Su Mingzhe had long expected the rebellion against Prince Mu's Mansion.
Therefore, before the change of dynasty, he sent Dongfang Bubai to guard them closely.
Under the siege of the Sun and Moon God Sect.
In the end, only the eldest son of Prince Mu and a few retainers escaped from Prince Mu's Mansion.
Of course, when the officers and soldiers finally searched, they found that all the young children of the machine retainers of Prince Mu's palace had also disappeared.
Obviously, Prince Mu's Mansion expected that he might fail, so he sent the children out in advance.
Dongfang Bubai's return indicates that the descendants of Prince Mu's Palace should have fled southward and entered South Vietnam, Siam and other countries.
Because it was the beginning of a new dynasty, Su Mingzhe could only send envoys to order these countries to hand over the people from Prince Mu's palace.
It will take some time before a large army is really dispatched.
On the other side, Yue Buqun of the Huashan sect also joined the Ming Dynasty royal clan. This fact still surprised Su Mingzhe.
"Isn't this just like entering the palace in 10 years and becoming a member of the national army in 48 years?"
This Yue Buqun's gambling spirit is too great, and he has no sense of the pattern at all. He wants to send Huashan into a trap.
After Su Mingzhe sighed, he ordered Zuo Lengchan to lead his Green Forest Heroes to hunt down the Huashan Sect.
In the blink of an eye, another full moon rises from the east.
After a busy day, Su Mingzhe came to Kunning Palace and saw Queen Zhu Xuan having dinner with her two sons.
Prince Su Xi was sitting on the mat with his legs and knees, his upright look made people feel heartbroken when he saw him.
The second eldest child, Su Zheng, was much more casual. He was already six years old, and he was even held and fed by the queen.
When Su Mingzhe saw it, he was naturally not happy:
"Does Zheng'er need to be fed before he is willing to eat?"
"No, Your Majesty, Zheng'er will be able to eat by himself. It's just that his stomach and intestines have not been good these past two days, and he also caught wind and cold, so..."
When Zhu Xuan saw that the man seemed to have a bad look on his face, he quickly put his young son down and explained.
Ever since a man ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, his words and actions have given people a strong sense of oppression.
Not to mention Zhu Xuan, even other women rarely dare to talk and laugh with men anymore.
"Xi'er, Zheng'er, you all come here."
Su Mingzhe casually sat down cross-legged next to Zhu Xuan, called his two sons to him, took their pulses, and then breathed a sigh of relief:
"Zheng'er did catch wind and cold, but it's not a big problem. I asked the Taiyuan Hospital to refine one of the Peiyuan Pills before and asked Zheng'er to take it and he'll be fine after a good sleep."
Seeing the man about to feed his son the elixir, Zhu Xuan finally couldn't remain calm:
"Your Majesty, this Peiyuan Pill is precious. Zheng'er just got a little cold, so he doesn't need to take the pill, right?"
Ordinary people all know a simple truth, that is, 'medicine is divided into three parts poison'.
Therefore, under normal circumstances, sick people tend to avoid medical treatment, and then choose to fight the disease themselves instead of taking medicine directly.
When Su Mingzhe saw the woman's expression changed drastically, he knew that she was worried that the elixir was erysipelas, so he couldn't help but said with a smile:
"Don't worry, starting from tomorrow, I will personally teach Xi'er and Zheng'er how to practice martial arts. It's just a Yuan-Pui Yuan Dan, and the effect of the medicine will be absorbed quickly."
Seeing that the man's words were unquestionable, Zhu Xuan had no choice but to give in and let his grandma take out the Pei Yuan Pill he had hidden, dissolve it with water, and give it to his younger son to take.
After taking the medicine, Su Zheng soon became sleepy.
At this time, Su Xi obediently took her brother to rest outside, leaving space for her parents.
Without his son as a light bulb, Su Mingzhe immediately turned into a coward. He couldn't resist Zhu Xuan and pinned her down.
The princess and eunuchs who were waiting nearby quickly left and guarded the door to prevent anyone from coming in and disturbing the two of them.
This Zhu Xuan is really pure and lustful, his every frown and smile can captivate people's souls.
After enjoying it, Su Mingzhe played with the woman's white catkins and couldn't help sighing secretly. This Zhu Xuan must have obtained the true inheritance of Concubine Zheng. He became more and more like a vixen and could easily suck out his own yang energy. Other women don't have this ability.
Zhu Xuan, who was already exhausted and weak, didn't know that a man would have such a high opinion of her. Now she was so sleepy that she just wanted to wash herself off and get some rest early!
"Princess, I want to discuss something with you!"
Su Mingzhe pulled up a backrest so that he and the woman could lie down, and then he said to himself:
"Now Dazheng has established a country. Although it has gone through a rebellion, the state structure has not changed. Many internal and external troubles still exist. It is easy to say that internal troubles are internal. The elders and ministers in the court are all the pillars of the country. With them here, Dazheng will There won’t be any big problem.”
"But foreign aggression is not possible!"
"Last year, the Jianzhou Jurchens attacked the grassland and unified most of the grassland. The remaining grassland tribes were no match for the Jianzhou Jurchens and had already gone south for help. News came from the Jinyiwei that the Jurchen Eight Banners were gathering an army of 300,000 to prepare for the attack. Heading south during the summer and autumn! I want to lead the expedition in person... During the time I am away, I will have to trouble you and your fellow ministers with state affairs!"
"Don't worry, I will definitely protect Dazheng."
Seeing how solemn the man said it, Zhu Xuan could only agree first.
Grassland tribes have always been a serious concern for the Central Plains dynasty.
Now that the grasslands have been unified again, Dazheng should really pay attention to it.
Regarding the issue of the emperor's personal expedition, the queen agreed and asked the elders for their opinions.
The chief minister of Dazheng was Sun Chengzong.
Sun Chengzong did not pass the Jinshi examination until he was forty-two years old. He was first taught as an editor at the Hanlin Academy, and was later appointed by Emperor Wanli to be promoted to Zhongyun, Yude, and Xima (actually the tutor of the prince).

When teaching the prince, Sun Chengzong also taught various princes and princesses, including Princess Shouning.
Later, the prince died of illness, and Emperor Wanli adopted Princess Shouning's son to the prince. Sun Chengzong regarded the grandson of Emperor Wanli as the orthodox son of the Ming Dynasty and devoted himself to assisting her.
In the official history, Sun Ge Lao was also the imperial master of two generations and the last Optimus Prime of the Ming Dynasty.
It's a pity that Emperor Tianqi didn't make good use of it, and in the end he could only withdraw from the court sadly.
In recent years, the Donglin Party has wooed courtiers and wanted to support the rebellion of other vassal kings. They also approached Sun Chengzong, but he rejected them all.
Later, when Su Mingzhe wanted to usurp the throne, the first person he had to persuade was Sun Chengzong.
At that time, Su Mingzhe promised him that after he changed dynasties, he would make Su Xi the crown prince. This was equivalent to the fact that the future Emperor Zheng would continue to have the blood of the Zhu family of the Ming Dynasty flowing through him.
Only then did Sun Chengzong continue to serve in the court, and was even appointed as the chief minister and assistant minister by Su Mingzhe.
Su Mingzhe summoned Sun Chengzong and told him about his preparations for the imperial conquest.
"Mr. Sun Ge, this Jurchen has assembled a large army and can go south anytime and anywhere. We cannot be passively beaten, we must take the initiative to attack!"
"I only need 50,000 cavalry, along with military provisions and baggage, to be sent directly to Yuguan. We will go out in May and be back in October."
"Mr. Sun Ge, I have to worry about you taking care of these things!"
"Old minister accepts the order!"
Sun Chengzong did not refuse.
After all, Su Mingzhe was right. It would be too passive to just wait for the Jurchens to bring people to fight.
It would be better to take advantage of the founding emperor's ambition and go directly out of the country to keep the enemy at bay.
On this point, Dazheng and Ming Dynasty are still different.
The Ming Dynasty was coming to an end, and the situation based on seniority was very serious.
If you want to lead troops to fight, there must be various interests involved.
In Dazheng, it is now a new dynasty and a new era.
Under Su Mingzhe's strong suppression, the capable were promoted and the mediocre were demoted.
Nowadays, there are no traces of those silverfish in the court.
Sun Chengzong, as the first assistant, sometimes has an illusion.
It's obviously the same group of people, but why has the work efficiency increased several times?
The first year of Taichang, May.
After two months of preparation time.
Under the protection of three thousand Han generals, Su Mingzhe rushed to Yuguan.
In Yuguan, a hundred thousand troops have been assembled, of which 50,000 are Ming cavalry and the other 50,000 are prairie warriors who surrendered last year.
