In the capital, since the crisis in the Zhennan camp has been resolved, Emperor Chengwu ordered that soldiers and horses from all over the country no longer need to assemble at the Pengcheng camp. You must know that the movement of soldiers and horses in all the capitals is a big expense. Emperor Chengwu is reluctant to spend this money.
With the money, he planned to shift the focus of his military strength to the northern camp, allowing Xuan Le to build a powerful army in just a few years.
Wei Zhan returned to Emperor Cheng Wu's side again. As soon as the military leader came, Emperor Cheng Wu seemed to have gained confidence. With Wei Zhan standing by his side, even if he was ignored by the ministers, Emperor Cheng Wu still held the most powerful power in his hands.
The cold, sticky place.
"Wei Zhan, it's been a hard journey south this time. It seems I can't live without you." Emperor Cheng Wu looked at Wei Zhan's old face and was really afraid of losing this right-hand man.
"Your Majesty, no matter how hard I work, I'm afraid I can't compare to you working in the capital."
What Wei Zhan said was true. He and Mu Qi were physically tired, but Cheng Wuhuang was tired mentally during this period.
Emperor Chengwu sighed, "Alas! It seems that I am indeed old and can't control my ministers."
Wei Zhan smiled slightly and said to himself that there are only spies around you. His own brother is planning a huge plan, and his own son is an accomplice. Everyone from far to near has done everything. Not to mention that you are the emperor of martial arts.
There is nothing that can be done about the resurrection of the ancestor emperor.
"Your Majesty, in fact, despite the great commotion, the ministers are still thinking about the great prosperity of the country. Otherwise, without the Emperor's order, I will eliminate dissidents for the Emperor." Wei Zhan said silently.
Emperor Chengwu nodded slightly, "The capital has been stabilized. What do you think should be done over there in Zhennan?" Emperor Chengwu's eyes revealed a murderous look.
The two monarchs and ministers have known each other for so many years, so Wei Zhan certainly understood what Emperor Cheng Wu meant. The actions of the generals of Zhennan Camp had touched Emperor Cheng Wu's bottom line. Don't think that Emperor Wu had promised Guo Tianxin not to pursue any further investigation, but Wei Zhan knew about this mission.
Sooner or later it will fall on them.
"Your Majesty, it is not the right time yet. If we start now, I am afraid that the mutiny will be rekindled. It is better to wait until Zhu Tian comes and recruits peace, and it stabilizes for a period of time."
Hearing this, Emperor Chengwu was startled, "Why, do you think Zhu Tianjiang will be recruited by me? I'm afraid this kid won't agree so happily to the conditions I put forward."
Wei Zhan smiled bitterly in his heart, thinking that he and Prince Jing had made such a big deal just to withdraw their troops, so of course Zhu Tianjiang would agree to recruit him.
"Your Majesty, Zhu Tianjiang has never raised an army. In fact, he is waiting for the Emperor to give him a chance. Zhu Tianjiang's parents are no longer alive, and he has no brothers and sisters. Even if he has children in the future, half of them will still be of royal blood. Therefore, I
I thought Tianxiang didn’t want to be at odds with the emperor." Wei Zhan said in a deep voice.
Emperor Chengwu said that it was more than half, even Guo Tianxin's daughter had royal blood. This kid almost took over all the royal people. No matter whether it was overt or covert, not a single one was left behind.
When he mentioned this, Emperor Chengwu couldn't help feeling filled with emotion. His sons died and disappeared. Among his daughters, Emperor Chengwu loved little Qiyuexin the most. He really hoped that Zhu Tianjiang could hand over his military power.
, and brought his daughter back to Beijing to be his consort.
"Wei Zhan, you have a good day today. Come with me for a walk. I feel aggrieved by staying in this palace all the time." Emperor Cheng Wu said and stood up from the dragon throne.
"Your Majesty, are you planning to go to Prince Jing's Mansion?" Wei Zhan asked strangely.
Emperor Chengwu snorted, "I don't want to see that fool, go to the Guo Mansion."
Emperor Chengwu didn't know what kind of anger was coming from him, and he suddenly wanted to have a chat with Guo Tianxin. Perhaps because his daughters were all occupied by Zhu Tianjiang, the father-in-law also wanted to exchange experiences. Another point, when Chengwu came
At this age, Emperor Wu misses the past time more and more.
In the General's Mansion, Emperor Chengwu re-entered the Guo Mansion for the first time since Guo Tianxin handed over military power. From this Zhennan incident, Emperor Chengwu clearly understood that his half-brother
The younger brother still holds the actual power of Zhennan Camp.
"My lord, Guo Tianxin, pays homage to the emperor~!"
Guo Tianxin led the whole family to greet Emperor Chengwu grandly. No matter what, in Guo Tianxin's heart, the imperial power was still supreme.
"Tian Xin, there is no need to be polite. Everyone, please get up. I am leaving the palace incognito today, so there is no need to be so solemn."
After everyone in the mansion finished their salutes, they all stepped back far away. Guo Tianxin accompanied Emperor Cheng Wu and Wei Zhan into the quiet backyard.
"Tianxin, it's all thanks to you that the Zhennan camp was able to calm down this time." Emperor Chengwu said as he walked.
"These are the emperor's great blessings, and I dare not take credit for them."
"Haha, it's been so long since we've been here. It seems that we, the monarch and his ministers, have become unfamiliar with each other. Tianxin, I still remember when we were together with Li Jing when we were young. Every time we beat him to the point of snot and tears. Alas, the years are like this.
Shuo, you and I are both old."
When talking about his childhood years, Guo Tianxin also had a smile on his face. At that time, no one knew that Emperor Chengwu could become the emperor. The three of them were playing around together without any worries in their hearts. In the blink of an eye, they also
In their later years, they became wary of each other.
"Tianxin, my great wealth will be handed over to Zhu'er in the near future. I hope that in our free time, our monarchs and ministers can drink and talk freely as before." Emperor Chengwu walked to the pavilion and stopped.
He stepped forward and turned to look at Guo Tianxin.
Guo Tianxin bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty, in fact, after taking some time off during this period, I feel that my previous life was too tiring. There are endless things to do in the world, and the same is true for my family and mansion. Since Yingzi left, I feel that I was too tired before.
What she is worrying about is simply busying around. Your Majesty, in fact, some things are better to just let nature take its course."
Emperor Chengwu laughed a few times. Guo Tianxin said it right. Some things cannot be forced, so it is better to let nature take its course.
The three of them were chatting when a palace guard came to report that it was Prince Jing who wanted to see him. When Emperor Chengwu heard this, he thought that he didn't want to see him even more, so he even chased him here.
"Tell Prince Jing that today I just want to chat with Guo Aiqing about the past and don't want to see him."
"According to the order!"
The guard agreed and just stood up when he saw Prince Jing running in with a smile.
"Brother Emperor! I'm so happy, Brother Emperor~!" Prince Jing swung his whip, and the guards did not dare to stop him even if they wanted to.
When Emperor Chengwu saw this, he became so angry that he said, "Li Jing, do you still know the etiquette of a monarch and his ministers?"
"Hey, brother, I'm so happy~!" Prince Jing said nonchalantly.
"I'm asking you, do you still know the etiquette of a monarch and his ministers?"
Emperor Chengwu was really angry this time. He didn't even say "brother", but directly called himself "I" in front of Prince Jing. This meant that the relationship between brothers was no longer important, but that of king and minister.
"Hey, brother, please listen to me first before reprimanding my brother." Prince Jing said carelessly.
Guo Tianxin also looked at Prince Jing in surprise, wondering if this old fool had drunk too much.
"Li Jing, I ask you again, do you still know the etiquette of a monarch and his ministers?" Emperor Chengwu wished he could roar.
Prince Jing took out a letter from his arms and said, "Brother, the girl Xiaoqi is here."
"Li Jing, don't interrupt. I'm asking you something. As Prince Dafeng, what did you say just now? Xiao Qi is here?" Emperor Cheng Wu was angry, as if he had just heard what Prince Jing said clearly.
, eyes widened in shock.
"Hey, a letter came from heaven and asked me to deliver it to Brother Huang. The letter said that girl Xiaoqi is pregnant. Brother Emperor, you are going to be the Grandfather of the Emperor." Prince Jing said with a grin.
When Guo Tianxin and Wei Zhan heard this, both of them looked happy, and at the same time they clasped their fists and raised their hands and said, "My lord, congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor~!"
Emperor Chengwu was stunned for a long time, and surprise suddenly appeared on his face. "Quickly, bring me the letter." Emperor Chengwu snatched Zhu Tianjiang's letter.
Prince Jing pointed to the very back, "Look at this first, and we'll look at the top later."
Emperor Chengwu followed King Jing's finger and saw, sure enough, Zhu Tianjiang wrote in his own handwriting that the seventh princess Yuexin was pregnant.
"Haha~hahahaha~ I'm going to have a grandson." Emperor Chengwu looked up to the sky and laughed.
Guo Tianxin and Prince Jing looked at Emperor Cheng Wu with envy. At their age, especially Prince Jing and Guo Tianxin, two old men who had no sons, they didn't know how much they longed for their daughter to give birth to a child soon.
"Come here, bring some wine. I want to drink a few drinks~!" Emperor Chengwu was so excited that he directly ordered his guards to bring wine to celebrate, no matter where he was.
Prince Jing shook his head happily, "Brother, my Yu'er and Yingzi came in earlier than Xiao Qi. Why did your Xiao Qi rush in first?"
Impressed by this happy event, Emperor Chengwu also forgot about his anger towards Prince Jing and laughed loudly, "Can you two compare with me? I am a king, and of course my daughter will be older than Yu'er and the two girls."
Emperor Chengwu said proudly.
In the past two years, the royal family had fewer and fewer connections, and finally there was another person with royal blood, which made Emperor Chengwu extremely happy.
Prince Jing sighed with envy and said, "Oh~! It's unfair~ God is unfair. Lao Guo, you said that the father-in-law we are marrying doesn't even have grandchildren, the emperor brother~!" At this point, Jing
Wang stopped talking for a moment. He didn't expect that he was so happy that he suddenly started talking nonsense.
Guo Tianxin looked at the flowers and plants around him, pretending he didn't hear these words. Good guy, you, Prince Jing, really drank too much. Why didn't you open any pot?
Emperor Chengwu's joyful face gradually turned cold. Looking at Prince Jing, the muscles on Emperor Chengwu's cheeks were trembling.
"What about that? Brother Emperor, please wait and talk~ I still have something to do!"
King Jing saw that it was not good, so he quickly resigned with the whip in hand. Regardless of whether Emperor Chengwu agreed or not, King Jing ran away.
"Li Jing~ Just stop, I'm going to beat you today~ I must beat you up~ Don't run away!"
Emperor Chengwu was going crazy. If it weren't for the fact that Prince Jing was the royal family's descendant, he would have ordered the guards to arrest him.
