After the people around them finished shouting their slogans, they looked at the army and talked about it. Although they didn't know the specific things, they also knew that their prince had returned from the battle victorious, and everyone looked honorable.
Zhu Biao said a few words to Li Shanchang and others, and then set off for Nanjing together.
After walking fifty miles, Zhu Biao asked officials from the Ministry of War to lead the army to the camp first, waiting for the emperor's reward.
Zhu Biao led thousands of pro-troops and civil and military officials back to the gates of Nanjing City. Zhu Biao looked up and saw two familiar figures on the city wall, who were clearly Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma.
Zhu Biao suddenly wanted to wave and shout, but thought it would be inappropriate to do so.
The generals behind him naturally saw it too. They all dismounted their horses, followed Zhu Biao and knelt down on one knee, and the ritual music played again.
The Minister of Rites walked out of the city gate with the imperial edict in his hand, stood slightly sideways in front of Zhu Biao and others, and began to read out: "Heaven is responsible for carrying the emperor, and he said: It is important to store two people, and the style is to consolidate the ancestors. Once there is a good man, he will be loyal to all nations. Heaven." The commander-in-chief, Zhu Biao, led the Northern Expedition to the foreign tribes to regain the lost territory, destroy the enemy country and expand the territory to tens of thousands of miles. I am very happy to have such a son! The right general, King Chang Yuchun of Kaiping, worked hard and made great achievements. He was specially awarded with an iron scroll to avoid death and a reward of one thousand taels. The descendants of future generations should rest with the country! Li Wenzhong, the general of the left, Cao Guogong, has outstanding merits and is promoted to the king of Qiyang, hereditary! Liu Ji, the sincere uncle who joined the army, was promoted to the sincerity marquis and was given a hundred acres of land. Lan Yu, the pioneer Yongchang Hou, was promoted to Liang Guogong for his outstanding bravery and was given thousands of taels of gold... ……………
The remaining people also have their own rewards, and basically everyone has been promoted. You can get a lot of information by looking at Zhu Yuanzhang's rewards.
All the generals and lieutenants in the army were rewarded, except for Huagao, the Marquis of Guangde, but there was no punishment.
As for Hua An, he was killed long ago...
Zhu Yuanzhang on the tower looked at his son below and said, "This boy really gave us a big surprise!"
Queen Ma on the side looked at it carefully for a while and then said: "It's a lot darker. She's getting married now, so she needs to take good care of her."
Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly laughed, but didn't say anything.
Queen Ma looked at her son below, but she felt very sad in her heart. She also studied general history, and she didn't want her son to be in the limelight anymore.
It is definitely not a good thing that the prince has made such great contributions at such a young age and gained prestige in the army. She only hopes that her family can live in harmony for the rest of her life. She loves her husband and her son.
If there was a conflict between the two most important men in her life, it would undoubtedly tear out her heart.
The good news ahead spread frequently, and the slaves in Kunning Palace were all smiling, but she was the only one who was getting more and more worried, and her husband had become more and more difficult to figure out since he became the Ninth Five Supreme Being.
Zhu Yuanzhang on the side looked helplessly at his knotted wife. She looked calm and pursed her mouth, looking very stubborn.
After my wife became the queen, her temper became more and more stubborn day by day. I didn't know what she was thinking every day. I had to be careful even when having a meal with her...
The most noble couple in the world looked at each other with different expressions, and then drove back to the palace. As soon as Zhu Biao got up from the tower, he saw his father and mother disappearing...
Silently, he turned around and mounted his horse and entered the city of Nanjing. Since the Holy Emperor had already seen them on the city tower just now, all the generals went back to their homes to bathe and change clothes. Then as usual, the emperor would summon them to the palace in the evening, and then give them a banquet to celebrate together. Celebrate a big victory.
Zhu Biao naturally had to go home to bathe and change clothes. He led Zhu Di back to the palace under the escort of Quan Xu. At the entrance, he saw Yun Jin Nuanyu and the others. The four of them shed tears when they saw him. Zhu Biao saw them crying.
, I couldn’t help but laugh.
Zhu Di was also going back to his mother and concubine. After all, he was still young. It was the first time he had been away from Beijing for so long, so Zhu Biao asked Liu Jin to see him off.
It’s so good to go home! I took a deep breath and felt my whole body lightened. I returned to the East Palace and took off my armor and took a good bath. Then I put on a soft cloud dragon robe, tied my hair behind my back, and then sat down.
In the small pavilion in his east palace, he listened to Nuan Yu's rambling talk.
In her eyes, she had suffered a lot of grievances after Zhu Biao went to war. She was bullied by Yun Jin and others all day long. She was always asked to do this and that, and she was not allowed to have enough to eat.
Zhu Biao touched her baby's fat cheek and said, "Even if I come back, you are not allowed to eat, and you have to do double the work."
Nuan Yu looked at Zhu Biao in disbelief, her round eyes wide open, like a cute orange cat.
Yun Jin brought a cup of hot tea. Zhu Biao didn't bother to ask what it was. Anyway, whatever he could get his hands on was nothing bad.
Zhu Biao took a sip of tea and said, "Nuan Yu seems to have gained a lot of weight. Let her do more work."
Yun Jin glanced at Nuan Yu with a smile, then nodded gently, walked behind Zhu Biao and pressed his shoulders.
After Zhu Biao drank a cup of tea, he stood up and flicked Nuanyu's forehead before leaving for Kunning Palace. After all, he was still young and he missed his mother.
The eunuchs and maids who saw Zhu Biao along the way knelt respectfully and shouted: "My servants congratulate the crown prince on his triumphant victory and may the crown prince live forever!"
Zhu Biao also nodded and went over. When he arrived at Kunning Palace, Zhu Biao was informed and went in. He knelt in front of his mother and said with a smile: "The child is back, and my mother doesn't have to worry anymore."
Empress Ma said with a straight face: "You still know how to worry me? Then why didn't you return to the court after retaking Yanyun? Is it what you, a prince, should do to seal the wolf to Juxu?"
Zhu Biao was stunned for a moment, then raised his head and saw the worry in Queen Ma's eyes, then stood up and said with a smile: "No matter how you seal the wolf as Xu, it is nothing more than the honor of a military commander. It is the great achievement of reopening the sun and the moon with your father."
What does it mean in comparison?
At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang strode in from outside the door. He glanced at the mother and son before sitting on the upper seat. He looked at his son who had indeed darkened a lot and said, "If you don't come back, your mother will be like this. She won't know what to think about every day."
What, I can’t say much, it seems like I’m getting old!”
Empress Ma was overjoyed at this time, and she had really gotten into trouble. The harem was boring, and Zhu Yuanzhang did not allow her to inquire about the affairs of the court. The women in the harem also treated her with respect, and her random thoughts frightened her every day.
But her husband's last sentence was wrong. Empress Ma glared at Zhu Yuanzhang: "That's because I am old and my beauty has faded, so naturally I can't compare with the beauties who have just entered the palace!"
Then he stood up and hummed, leaving space for the father and son to communicate, and went down to arrange meals for a while.
Zhu Biao watched happily without making a sound. Zhu Yuanzhang waved to him to sit down, and the father and son looked at each other for a while.
