Chapter 714: The situation is grim.

The heat of summer makes people lazy at home and don't want to go out, and even women like Hua Zhimeng, Di Xiaoxin, who like to go shopping very much, prefer to stay at home and rest because they can't stand the heat after shopping a few times.

But summer also gives everyone a joy that no other season can give.

Lean under a willow tree and listen to the cicadas, or swim in a nearby pond with a group of friends.

Of course, these are all things that a man should do, and Hua Zhimeng strongly asked Zheng He to take Ye Xing to swim, because the fact that Ye Xing was a landlubber made her want to laugh when she thought about it, and in order to avoid the situation that Ye Xing would not fall into the water in the future, she asked Ye Xing to learn to swim.

And among so many people, Zheng He's swimming skills are naturally the best.

Faced with Hua Zhimeng's request, Ye Xing and Zheng He had no way to refuse.

So after everyone had lunch at noon that day, Zheng He took Ye Xing and them to the pond of Zhongshan Wangfu, the water of this pond was one person deep, and it was extremely large, not inferior to the natural pond outside.

Moreover, at this time, the pond is full of blooming lotuses, those lotus flowers are out of the mud and not stained, slim and elegant, giving people a feeling that they have always been elegant and vulgar, Zheng He wanted to teach Ye Xing to swim After Di Xiaojie and Ai Fei'er learned about it, they all immediately came to join in the fun.

It's the first time they've heard that their eldest brother Ye can't swim, so in the face of such a thing, why don't they have to come and take a look.

Because they are adults, even if they jump into the pond to learn to swim, they still wear a thin layer of light veil to cover their bodies.

In this hot summer, after a few of them came to the pond, they had a feeling of rushing into the water, but after Zheng and Di Xiaojie and several of them jumped into the water, Ye Xing stood on the shore and didn't dare to go down.

This made Zheng He very embarrassed, if Ye Xing didn't go into the water, how would he teach it?

But Ai Fei'er still has a way, just when Ye Xing was standing on the shore and didn't dare to go into the water, Ai Fei'er suddenly pulled Ye Xing down, Ye Xing's body suddenly entered the water, feeling so cold and refreshing, but after refreshing, he suddenly felt that his body was sinking, and the water was drowning his body little by little, this feeling was too terrifying.

At this time, Zheng He was teaching Ye Xing on the side if he balanced his body with revenge, if he let himself float in the water, Ye Xing learned martial arts so quickly, but he couldn't learn to swim anymore, even if Zheng He was there to guide him.

After Ye Xing choked on a few mouthfuls of water, he didn't want to learn even more, he just hoped that someone would come to him soon, or something would happen, so that he could escape from this pond quickly.

And something happened, just when Ye Xing was being pulled by Di Xiaojie and a few of them to drink water, a eunuch hurriedly ran over and shouted loudly: "King Daming, Lord Zheng, the emperor has an order, quickly recruit you into the palace." ”

After Ye Xing heard this holy decree, his heart was suddenly happy, and he hurriedly replied: "Thank you, Emperor, Weichen has received the decree!" ”

After saying this, Ye Xing suddenly flew out of the pond, and then took the holy decree in the hands of the eunuch, the eunuch saw that Ye Xing was so unorthodox, and wanted to say a few words, but remembering that he was just a eunuch, he didn't dare to say more, and retreated again and again.

After Ye Xing and Zheng He put on their clothes, they hurriedly rushed to the palace, at this time, I don't know what Zhu Di summoned them for!

At this time, the hall was already full of ministers, but the huge palace was surprisingly quiet, none of those ministers spoke, Emperor Zhu Di looked angry, sat on the dragon chair and looked at His Royal Highness's ministers, and said angrily: "You and others are all talents selected by my Ming Dynasty, but now you can't think of a way, it's really a shame." ”

While speaking, a eunuch came to report: "Back to the emperor, Ye Xing, the king of the Ming Dynasty, and Lord Zheng have arrived!" ”

"Hurry up!"

Ye Xing and Zheng He hurriedly and cautiously came to the top of the main hall, knelt down and shouted Long live my emperor, long live long live, and then stood on both sides, not daring to speak.

Zhu Di saw Ye Xing and Zheng He coming, so he hurriedly said: "Ye Aiqing and Zheng Aiqing, I am in such a hurry to call you here today because there is a big incident at the border pass, and the soldiers I sent to the expedition are all wiped out, and even the general Qiu Fu, the deputy generals Wang Cong and Huo Qin, and the left and right generals Wang Zhong and Li Yuan are all alive!" ”

After Ye Xing and Zheng He listened to Zhu Di's words, they were taken aback, Qiu Fu led an army of 100,000, why was the whole army annihilated? That's 100,000 lives!

Thinking of this, Ye Xing felt a faint pain in his heart, he hated war, but he also knew at this time that if he did not completely eliminate the remnants of the Mongols in Benjamin, the people at the border would be harassed for a long time, and once they became strong, it would be an all-round war.

If this war had broken out, more than 100,000 people would have died.

After a long time, Zhu Di continued: "Now that Qiu Fu's expedition has failed, I, Daming, must find a way to get rid of those Tartars in Benjamin, is there any good way for King Daming?" ”

Ye Xing saw Zhu Di asking himself, but he muttered in his heart, he will only solve the case, will there be a war there, Zhu Di asked me this question, isn't it embarrassing for me?

But although Ye Xing thought so, he couldn't say that, as a minister of the Ming Dynasty, he had the responsibility to give advice to the country, so after thinking about it for a while, Ye Xing hurriedly replied: "I think I can't condone those Mongolian partners, I must give them a head-on blow, they don't dare to make another incident, and they can bow down to our Ming Dynasty." ”

Ye Xing said these words impassionedly, and many ministers present also nodded their heads in agreement when they heard this.

It's just that at this time, Ji Gang, who was standing aside, suddenly moved out and said: "Back to the emperor, what King Daming said is very right, we must give those Mongolian Tatars a head-on blow, but we all understand this truth, but no one went out to fight, there was a veteran Qiu Fu before, but Qiu Fu was too proud and complacent, so that the 100,000 army was wiped out, and now I am above the court, there are not many available generals." ”

Zhu Di nodded slightly after listening to Ji Gang's words, and then asked, "Then does Ji Aiqing have any good suggestions?" ”

Ji Gang hurriedly replied: "As a minister of the Ming Dynasty, he really wants to fight on the battlefield for the emperor, and he is dead, but now the minister is the commander of the brocade guard, and the responsibility is to protect the emperor's safety, which is more important than anything else, but although Weichen can't fight on the battlefield, Weichen has a candidate." ”

"Who is it, Ji Aiqing, tell me quickly!" Zhu Di sat on the dragon chair and urged very anxiously.

Ji Gang smiled slightly, and hurriedly replied: "Back to the emperor, the person recommended by Weichen is Ye Xing, the king of the Ming Dynasty, who has just returned from a trip to the West. ”
