Wang Xian went out for a while, and when he came back, holding a porcelain bowl in one hand and a huge writing brush in the other, he walked straight to Baoyin Qiqige.
"You, what do you want?" Seeing him looking at his face and dipping the brush into the black-yellow juice in the bowl, Baoyin Qiqige smelled the stinky smell in the bowl and said with a look of horror.
.
"Don't be ignorant, I'll help you restore your original look." Wang Xian said and applied a stroke of paint on her cheek, but he also reminded her: "Don't shake it around. If it splashes in your eyes, you will go blind."
As expected, Baoyinqiqige stopped moving. For safety reasons, she originally had her face covered in black. Although I don’t know why this guy was suddenly so kind, covering up her appearance can give her a sense of security.
. He remained motionless and allowed his face to be covered with juice, and even his neck was touched...
After finishing painting, Wang Xian dropped the pen, covered his nose and stepped back a few steps, saying in a low voice: "You really stink...
Baoyinqiqige closed her eyes tightly. Wang Xian humiliated her without crying, but now there were tears on her eyelashes.
Wang Xian couldn't see a woman crying, so he sighed and said: "You silly girl, it's not your fault that you are so beautiful, it's your fault that you came to be a spy. Do you know what they will do if they catch a spy? Then
You have to rape first and then kill, kill and then rape. Now I will help you hide your appearance again so that you will not be ruined. You will thank me more in the future..."
This sounds reasonable, but unfortunately, Wang Xian's credit with Baoyinqiqige has been ruined. She bit her lower lip tightly, feeling the bitterness in her mouth, and couldn't help but said angrily: "What did you put on my face?"
?”
"Good stuff, Coptis chinensis, indigo, pearl powder, they are all pure natural materials, they can also beautify the skin." Wang Xian smiled and said: "And there is a reason for my prescription. You should know Khitan's
Noble women all use gold powder to coat their faces, which can prevent wind and sand and keep their skin delicate, right? This is the restored ancient Khitan recipe, and I have made improvements to reduce heavy metals and reduce irritation to the skin..."
Listening to Wang Xian's endless chatter, Baoyinqiqige felt a strong sense of powerlessness in her heart...
After everything was done, Wang Xian continued to cross-examine, but Baoyinqiqige ignored her at all. Wang Xian could not threaten her anymore, so he had to go out for a walk in depression. After returning half an hour later, Wang Xian came to see her again.
, seeing that the potion has been completely absorbed, the skin as white as milk has turned into a dark yellow color exposed to the wind and sun all day long... The potion prepared by Wu Wei is very magical, and it actually makes the skin rough and wrinkled. I don't know what it can do.
It can't be recovered. But that's not Wang Xian's concern anymore.
At this time, the curtain was opened, and Zhu Zhanji came back from get out of class, and shouted excitedly: "I heard that you came back after arresting a Mongolian woman. It's a pity that I missed a good show." As soon as he came in, he quickly covered his nose and said: " It stinks, it stinks." When he saw the woman tied to the pillar, her face was yellow and black, as rough as sand, with unkempt hair and rags, His Highness Taisun muttered: "She has a really good figure, but it's a pity It’s really too bad to look at…
This was the first time in Baoyinqiqige's life that she had been called ugly. She felt useless, but she had to admit that this was a good way to protect herself. She had no choice but to bow her head and acquiesce in the other person's comments.
"Let's go out and say, doesn't this Mongolian woman take a bath?" Zhu Zhanji covered his nose and left the house.
Wang Xian winked at Baoyin Qiqige, shrugged, and went out, leaving the Mongolian princess in a daze in the room.
In the end, Zhu Zhanji escorted the Mongolian princess to the emperor's grandfather to claim credit. Zhu Di was very happy to see that he captured Daliba's sister before the war started. He thought this was a good sign and ordered Wang Xian to record the credit. But Zhu Di did not see it.
Bao Yin Qiqi Ge, but ordered someone to send her to the local government to take care of her, and not to embarrass her... Zhu Di was very superstitious, because there has always been a saying that "yin people are unlucky," and women are yin people. Especially in this kind of critical situation
During the national campaign, he did not allow women to appear in the military camp.
After resting for two days in Xuanfu, the Ming army marched again. This time the team gathered 500,000 horses, which was larger than before. The front army had been setting out for a whole day, and the rear army had just left Xuanfu. When the long dragon
The army drove into the grassland in a mighty manner, and the whole Hetao was shaken. The leaders of the surrounding ministries rushed to come to see the Emperor of Heaven, and they presented cattle and sheep to reward the army. Zhu Di was very happy about this, and ordered them to accompany the army to conquer the Hetao together.
Mahamu. Regardless of whether they felt like it or not, under the shock of the heavenly soldiers and the power of heaven, all the tribal leaders obeyed the orders. Some of them brought three or two thousand men, and as few as three or two hundred, to join the army of the Northern Expedition.
Among them, the one who led the largest number of troops was Shi Jieyu of the Tatar tribe. He was the eldest son of Arutai. He brought nearly 4,000 elite cavalry to fulfill his promise to serve as the vanguard for the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Di originally blamed Arutai for not coming in person.
But when he saw that Shijieyu's army was very powerful, he knew that Arutai had not fooled the Ming Dynasty, but was indeed afraid of him. So he graciously received Shijieyu and gave medicine to Arutai to reassure him.
recuperate.
On the first day of April, the army arrived at Xinghe. After resting under Xinghe City for four days, the army moved to Shacheng, ten miles north of Xinghe, and held a grand military parade in Shacheng the next day.
On the fifth and sixth day of the lunar month, under the watchful eyes of the leaders of various Mongolian ministries, half a million troops appeared on the stage. Outside the sand city, smoke billowed and grass blades flew. The elite Fifth Army Camp, Three Thousand Battalion, and Shenji Battalion performed one after another.
The Ming Army's cavalry outflanks, infantry assaults, combined infantry and cavalry attacks and other projects were carried out. The wolf soldiers and white pole soldiers transferred from Guangxi, Yunnan and Sichuan practiced infantry crossbow volleys, spear infantry assassination training and other military subjects. Really
The troops were well-organized, marched in unison, their armor was bright, and their power was overwhelming. Especially the Shenji Battalion's firearms drill. The Tiger Power Cannon, Fire Dragon Spear, Annan Cannon, Swarm of Bees, Fire Dragon Chariot and many other firearms on display were extremely powerful and the sound was astonishing...
This made the leaders of various Mongolian tribes restless and frightened, and many of them even turned pale.
After the military parade, Zhu Di met with the leaders of various ministries at the camp in Shacheng.
The leaders of the various Mongolian tribes who once tried their best to maintain the reserve of the nobles of the previous dynasty, under the leadership of Shu Jieyu, all knelt down when they saw Zhu Di, kowtowed to the ground, lowered their eyebrows, and spoke some Chinese words.
Okay, I still keep flattering Zhu Di that he is the Khan of Heaven...
Zhu Di didn't feel the flattery at first, but when he heard the words "Tian Khan", he couldn't help laughing: "I am still far away from Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, but I will strive to surpass his reputation in a hundred years."
"I can definitely do it, I can definitely do it," a Mongolian leader nodded and bowed.
"Everyone, please take a seat." Zhu Di waved his hand, and the Mongolian leaders hurriedly thanked them and took their seats. After they sat down, the emperor said in a deep voice: "I personally command the heavenly soldiers this time. As everyone knows, the purpose is to crusade against aggression.
The Wala thieves of your homeland"
All the Mongolian leaders nodded after hearing this, and the leader of the Ordos tribe, named Yetula, said with excitement: "The Mahamu thieves are lawless, disobeying the imperial decree, provoking a war in Mobei outside the Great Wall, and even breaking into the Hetao without authorization to rob and kill.
He also established a pseudo-Khan named Tariba, calling himself the Great Khan. Since last winter, he has frequently sent envoys to various ministries to demand submission to him, and threatened that if anyone does not show up at the Naadam Conference this year, he will send troops to annihilate him.
Who? Since we have surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, we naturally know that our loyal ministers have nothing to do with the two masters and are incompatible with him. This time the emperor sent troops to eliminate this great harm for us. We all the Mongolian tribes are grateful to the emperor and we swear to the ground forever.
Loyal to the Ming Dynasty, I am willing to serve as the emperor’s pawn.”
These words were obviously well prepared, and he was vomiting, but no one thought he was going too far at this time. Instead, they all secretly hated themselves for being stupid. Arutai's son Yu Ye said loudly: "We Tatars and Walas
We are irreconcilable. The old thief tried to kill my father and son several times. This time my father cannot come. I am willing to act as a vanguard for the emperor and chop off the heads of the three Mahamu brothers."
Seeing them all excited and vying to show their loyalty, Zhu Di sneered in his heart. In his heart, Wang Baobao was a Mongolian hero who could be called Xu Da. If he knew better, he would not be angry if he saw his descendants degenerate like this.
Gotta crawl out of the grave
But his face was full of smiles and he said: "Okay, okay, I know your loyalty. This time you will accompany me to conquer Mahamu. I and my soldiers will not take any of the land you occupy. I will reward you according to your merits."
"
When the leaders heard this, their eyes lit up. In recent years, the Walas began to invade from the northwest, and the entire west of Mongolia, Mobei, Central Mongolia, and Eastern Mongolia fell into Mahamu's hands. But they were squeezed out.
Pressed into Hetao and Liaodong, there are many people and few pastures, and life is very difficult. If they can carve up a part of the territory after defeating Mahamu in the Ming Dynasty, their life will be much easier immediately, and their strength will become stronger.
"In addition, I will not hesitate to reward all the leaders who come with me personally after victory. At least they are marquises. It is not difficult to be crowned kings." Zhu Di added fire: "In short, there are plenty of rewards, it all depends on your performance."
"Long live my emperor, long live the emperor." The leaders became excited. While shouting, "We dare not fight to the death," they secretly planned to call more tribesmen to come, so that they could squander the land.
"Okay, okay, now I will give you a task," Zhu Di nodded and said with a smile: "Now send someone, or go to the north in person, and tell the tribes who have not come to see me, and those tribes that are attached to Mahamu, that
Before the arrival of my heavenly soldiers, if you come to serve, you will forget the blame. If you join me in fighting against Oala, you will be rewarded after victory. If you persist in your stubbornness, you will still help Zhou to do evil. When the heavenly soldiers arrive, they will be turned into powder. Don't blame the power of heaven for being like a prison.
"We will obey the Holy Order," all the Mongolian leaders responded in unison.
"There is another thing, whoever brings the tribe will be in charge of it from now on. This will be written in the golden book I gave you and will not be changed from generation to generation." Zhu Di smiled faintly and said domineeringly: "Why?
So, is it better to follow me or Mahamu? Have you guys thought about it clearly?"
When the leaders heard this, they felt as if they were on fire. What did they dream of? It was not just land, population, and power. The Emperor of Ming Dynasty actually gave them all. Although they still had to earn by their own abilities, just a good prospect was enough.
As if they were drunk, they all knelt down to express their loyalty. There was also the expressive one who bit his index finger and swore an oath of blood to be loyal to the Ming Emperor forever.
Seeing that his goal was achieved and the atmosphere reached its peak, Zhu Di ordered a banquet and had a good chat with a group of Mongolian leaders. After they were full, the leaders left one after another and went back to show their talents.
