Chapter 1657 Victory
As soon as he heard it was Young Master Sun... Mrs. Zhu was moved immediately.
She anxiously waited for the news day and night, but now that the news came, she felt a little timid.
I'm afraid there will be bad news, even if it is a tiger girl who is as strong as Zhu Shi, she doesn't know how to face it.
"Bring...bring...no, you read it, you read it."
The servant girl knew what the old lady wanted, so she also looked solemn, opened the express, and read: "Old lady Jun Jian: Order Sun Xu Pengju..."
Hearing this, Mrs. Zhu already trembled, took the teacup subconsciously, and lowered her head to drink it.
Who would have expected that the tea in this teacup was already empty.
Thus... only the wet tea dregs were swallowed.
But Zhu didn't realize it.
"Sun Xu Pengju was ordered to feign surrender in Lusong, where he escaped death, so that Lusong's Frang machine and Chen Bing assembled, and the Ningbo navy took advantage of the situation to fight decisively. Today... Lusong is determined at once. Thousands of thieves will be killed and more than ten thousand will be captured. Today, Lusong is dead. It can be said that Sun has contributed a lot to becoming something in Da Ming's pocket, and the whole world celebrates it..."
Merit?
Zhu's heart is in a mess...
After Zhu Neng, she married into Wei Guogong's Xu family. One of these two families was a hero in the founding of the country, and the other was a hero in Jingnan. Therefore, even though she is a girl, she also firmly believes that a man should follow the principle of his ancestors and make contributions like a dragon.
But...now... Zhu's heart is in a mess.
Credit is indispensable... what's the use?
What she wanted was for her grandson to be safe, so she said, "Pengju him..."
"Old madam... there's more to come. The superiors also said that Young Master Sun beheaded the governor of Luzon himself and killed the head of the bandit. Besides, there was no serious problem. The news reached the Ministry of War...the Minister of the Ministry of War, Ma Shangshu, who happened to be writing the book, had some connections with the Xu family. Therefore, while entering the palace to announce the good news, at the same time...immediately repairing the book and coming to Nanjing to make the old lady feel at ease. "
Hoo...
This is...alive...
Zhu's gaze, which had always been dim, suddenly became brighter
It's good to be alive, it's good to be alive.
Then... her eyes filled with tears, and suddenly, it seemed that nothing mattered anymore.
"Pengju is really like his ancestors, and he didn't disgrace the lintel." Zhu wiped away his tears, feeling deeply relieved.
She stood up, and said immediately: "Now there are many rumors outside, all saying that the Xu family is planning to do something wrong. Now that Xu Pengju has made such contributions to the country, who dares to talk about it? I don't know what's going on in the court."
"One more thing..." The maid said again: "The doorman said that something strange happened in Nanjing... Everyone said that His Majesty came to Nanjing. They said it was a private visit, and in the name of an imperial envoy, he came a long time ago, old madam Do you remember the matter of imperial envoys going to Xiaoling a few days ago?"
"Your Majesty is in Nanjing?" Mrs. Zhu looked surprised, and then, relieved, she suddenly laughed and said, "Okay, okay, okay."
"Old Madam... This... His Majesty came to Nanjing, the slaves don't understand..."
Mrs. Zhu looked at the maidservant and said sternly: "Don't you understand? If the Xu family is really plotting something wrong, how could your majesty come to Nanjing with a body of a thousand gold? To shake the foundation of the country, at this juncture, it is impossible to come anyway. But if His Majesty is here... What does it mean? It means that His Majesty still trusts our Duke Wei's mansion, and it is because of this trust that he came here for a private visit... If there is any doubt, it is definitely not the emperor, but the factory guard!"
Mrs. Zhu took a deep breath, foretelling that her grandson was safe, and thinking of her majesty's private visit... The so-called crisis of the Xu family turned out to be nothing more than a false alarm.
Mrs. Zhu was very happy in her heart, her complexion improved, and she said solemnly: "Your Majesty is here, there is no reason not to go to the Duke of Wei's mansion, so let Xu Xinzhuang... No, bring me the imperial clothes, and I will go there in person. See you, although I am a woman, I have been granted a first-rank imperial order, and I am not invisible. The most important thing is...to let outsiders see that our Xu family is still the same Xu family, and no one can make other speculations .”
The maidservant didn't dare to be negligent, so she hurried to prepare.
Mrs. Zhu took a bath and changed clothes, put on a first-grade official uniform and a silver crown on his head, and then boarded the car.
Not long after, we arrived at the Gongyuan.
At this time, outside the tribute courtyard, it was already surrounded by guards, and when Mrs. Zhu came here, it was convenient for him to worship three times in front of the tribute courtyard.
Emperor Hongzhi sat in the tribute courtyard, looked at the gentry, but was not in a hurry to speak. Hearing that Mrs. Wei Guogong's mansion came to see him, he couldn't help being stunned.
He glanced at Fang Jifan, and Fang Jifan quickly understood, "Go to meet me?"
Emperor Hongzhi nodded.
Fang Jifan got up, went outside the Gong Yuan, and saw Mrs. Zhu kneeling in front of the door, with gray hair under the silver crown, and still in good spirits.
Fang Jifan lamented that it was really difficult for this old lady. The old lady should be at the age where she can get money by lying on the ground and touching porcelain. She never expected that she did not fall down, but knelt upright , not easy.
Fang Jifan stepped forward and said: "Madam, please stand up, junior Fang Jifan, my father's taboo Jinglong..."
How could Mrs. Zhu not know Fang Jifan? She didn't get up, but raised her head and said, "Is it the Empress Fang Zhengying that my father carried back in the civil castle?"
Fang Jifan said awkwardly: "I don't know which high school the old lady comes from?"
Zhu said: "Cheng Guo Gongfu."
Fang Jifan was in awe: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."
It's just... he was a little kidding in his heart, Wei Guogong's mansion said the same, Cheng Guogong's mansion said the same, and the British Duke in it also said the same. Could it be that the princes of Ming Dynasty didn't communicate with each other and were not unified? Think about it?
Fang Jifan felt relieved about this. After all, he is a broad-minded person with only the common people and the country in his heart. It is absolutely impossible for him to focus on such trivial matters.
Fang Jifan coughed and said, "Madam, please get up."
Zhu said: "Don't dare."
Fang Jifan said with shame: "It is His Majesty's oral order, please get up and see the old lady."
Mr. Zhu just stood up and glanced at Fang Jifan: "My grandson, I'm studying with you."
Fang Jifan immediately said: "Madam, you can't say that. Lingsun is just the disciple of the younger generation, and his mentor is Wang Bo'an. If there is an injustice, there is a debtor. Master's master can't beat the eight poles..."
Mrs. Zhu pursed her lips, but did not speak.
This made Fang Jifan's heart beat, and he was even more attentive, helping Mrs. Zhu into the room.
Entering the Gongyuan, Zhu Shi met Emperor Hongzhi, but the Minglun Hall in the Gongyuan was already overcrowded, and the gentry had to obediently move out a place.
Master Zhu prostrated herself: "The concubine has seen His Majesty."
Emperor Hongzhi saw that the Zhu family was old. From this point of view, Wei Guogong's mansion and the royal family were related by marriage.
Emperor Hongzhi got up and said: "Let's get back on your feet. I came to Nanjing and was about to settle today's matter, so I went to Wei Guogong's mansion. Unexpectedly, Qing came."
However, Mrs. Zhu said: "I don't know that your majesty has come to Nanjing. I implore your majesty to forgive me for being rude. This Nanjing is a good place, with a mild climate and a lot of food. Your Majesty has been in the capital for a long time, so you can enjoy the beauty of heaven." Fu, but there are some foods in Nanjing, but they are also unique, I wonder if your majesty has tried them..."
A woman is a woman, and at this time, she can still do homework.
Fang Jifan really admires him. He wished he could write it down in a small notebook. It seems that his skills are not as good as those of others. It would be more effective to use these little tricks to build relationships!
Earlier, it was rumored that Wei Guogong's mansion was planning to do something wrong, but when the old lady of Wei Guogong's mansion came, she started talking about eating. The original embarrassment of the monarch and his ministers disappeared at this moment without a trace.
Emperor Hongzhi was depressed at first, thinking of the evil deeds of Qi Zhiyuan and others, he felt very unhappy, but now he heard Xu's words, but he couldn't help smiling: "Okay, I have been in Xiaoling these days, and I will go to Wei Guogong's mansion later. , have a good taste of this Jiangnan cuisine."
Hearing that the emperor wanted to drive Wei Guogong's mansion, Zhu's heart was relieved. She knew in her heart that this could be regarded as His Majesty's complete removal of the suspicion of Wei Guogong's mansion.
Mrs. Zhu came here today to chat with Emperor Hongzhi. She smiled and said, "I have another happy event for my concubine to come here."
"What happy event?"
"There is a report from Beijing, and there is news from the ministers and grandchildren. In addition, there is also a report from the Ningbo Navy."
Emperor Hongzhi’s private visit was almost forbidden. Most people in the court did not know that he was in the south of the Yangtze River. Naturally, if there was any urgent report, it would not be sent to him immediately.
Hearing that the Ningbo Navy had news, Emperor Hongzhi was moved, and said solemnly: "Where is the report?"
Zhu took the memorial, Fang Jifan stepped forward to take it, and passed it to Emperor Hongzhi.
Emperor Hongzhi hurriedly opened it, looked down... and his chest heaved...
Luzon is still a bit far away from Ming Dynasty. It takes a month or two to go back and forth by sea. , thoroughly aware of the influence of the Spaniards in the West, even if the Ningbo Navy attacks, it is impossible to have any news within a year or so. .
He has already made preparations for this.
Who knows, only three or four months later, the news came...
Great victory...
Xu Pengju entered Luzon alone and was riddled with wounds, but he survived and gave the Spaniard wrong information. When the Spaniard gathered his troops and wanted to defeat the Ningbo Navy in one fell swoop, he never expected that they would gather their troops together , but hit the trap.
Not only that...Xu Pengju was still in the chaos, and he killed the Spanish governor. This...is a great achievement.
Emperor Hongzhi raised his eyebrows...
Keep reading...
This kid...was transformed from a livestock? I heard that he was tortured for many days, his body was bruised, and in the midst of the chaos, the governor who killed the opponent was... still alive...
Hoo...
Emperor Hongzhi let out a long breath.
Finally something happy today...
Great victory!
