At the junction of yin and yang, the gray space, only its divine existence can stay here.

In the Underworld, a group of figures with a flickering red light greets them.

I saw a strong red light flashing, Guo Wentong appeared, and at this moment, this group of figures flashing red light bowed down together: "See the lord's mouth"

Guo Wentong's body flashed with a huge red light, and when he glanced at the past, they were all old ministers, he was silent, and said for a long time: "Let's get up!"

December 10 of the first year of Hongwu

On the vast prairie, it becomes very cold, and the snow covers the grassland, but it is still possible to hunt, and with rare prey, it also shows martial arts.

An arrow, a heart", galloped out of the archer's hand, knocking down a running prey.

"Your Highness is really good archery!"

"I will definitely be able to return with a full load this time!" the many guards who followed immediately burst into applause.

In fact, this kind of archery is nothing in the grassland, Balu listened, a smile appeared on his face, waved his hand to the attendant behind him, and ordered: "Put that prey away"

"Yes, Your Highness!" and at once a man urged his horse forward, picked up the prey with a saber, and lifted it on the horse.

But Balu did not stop, but continued to gallop forward, and when the people saw this, they rode their horses and followed.

Balu had been back on the prairie for a while, and he seemed to be in good spirits.

There is no fresh game for him to play in the ranch where he usually plays, and this no-man's land has some additional surprises.

With hundreds of elite soldiers, he was not afraid of danger, and it was not far from his military camp, where a large army was stationed to keep him safe.

In fact, if he hadn't come to sweep away the nearby tribes, he wouldn't have come to this kind of place. And now it seems that such a remote place also has a wonderful place.

In order to show their loyalty, some small and medium-sized tribes, either beautiful women or rare treasures, carefully flattered the prince.

But the big tribes did not pay attention to it, and the Great Khan had already returned to the steppe with his army, and was very dissatisfied with this eldest son, and then there was no need for a fight.

Balu is also worried about this, although he took advantage of the shock of the death of his younger brother to return to the grassland to seize power, but the Great Khan is very powerful, and the grassland still listens to the Great Khan.

This was what Balu feared, but when he learned that the Great Khan had returned to the army, he wrote a letter and sent an envoy to the past, meaning that he was only afraid that the steppe would have no owner and there would be a rebellion, and that as long as the Great Khan was willing to admit that he was the heir, then he was willing to return to the Great Khan's tent. )

It's a win-win for both Balu and the Great Khan, so I don't know how the Great Khan will reply.

He was waiting to be tormented before he went hunting to vent his stress.

At this moment, as soon as Balu saw it from afar, he felt his heart sink and a sense of foreboding emerged...

When he came near, he sent a messenger, but his face was marked with whips and his ears cut off, and the messenger rolled down, bowed down and cried: "Your Highness, the Great Khan said that you should not be delusional, and then take off your clothes and go naked to ask for forgiveness." ”

"What?" Balu furious, his face turned blue and his chest rose and fell violently.

I didn't think that until now, the Great Khan still kept him out, glanced at the messenger whose ears were cut off, he smiled violently, this laugh was like a wolf, he pulled out an arrow violently, and said angrily with a "snap": "Since you are unwilling to show mercy, then fight!"

On December 22, the Dacheng army returned to Jinling.

Except for some of the 200,000 troops who stayed behind, they continued to garrison in Liangzhou, Qindi, and the main force followed the emperor back to Jinling.

The return of the army made the joyful atmosphere of Jinling City even stronger.

Compared with a few years ago when Jinling was just occupied, Jinling at this time, the development is more prosperous, although the day they came back, the city was under martial law, but the scene on both sides is real.

"Zhang Qing, I haven't been back for a few months, hehe, there are many changes in Jinling. Riding a horse, walking in front of the team, there were soldiers on both sides to block the onlookers, they kept cheering, Wang Hongyi saw it, and he couldn't help but have a faint smile on his face.

Zhang Youzhi also rode a horse, but slightly wrong one step away, listening to the emperor's words, he smiled: "Jinling is a city with frequent business and trade exchanges, in the past, the world was not peaceful, and the merchants came from Fufang, but now the whole world has been pacified by His Majesty, and there are people who come here to trade, there are all over the world, and there are more people who naturally prosper more and more."

"This expedition can be said to be full of dangers, if it were not for the blessing of God, it would almost not be possible to return safely, and in retrospect, there is still a little fear. Wang Hongyi listened, was silent for a moment, and said.

Indeed, Luoyang was the most dangerous time.

Zhang Youzhi sighed: "Fortunately, Your Majesty has made a wise decision, Chengtian has been ordered, and the great blessings are all over the sky, and now the situation is settled, presumably after this time, the people of the world will be able to live a peaceful life." ”

"I want to do the same, but whether it is from the national system or from the avenue, it is impossible to fight for a long time, and it is impossible not to fight, and the Hu people have not yet been pacified!" Wang Hongyi said that Wang Hongyi walked towards the inner city, looked back, and saw Zhang Youzhi, who had changed color slightly, and smiled: "I know that the people are tired of fighting every year, at least in five years, I don't want to make a big move, I want to continue to reform and establish a new one, and implement the new policy of my Dacheng Dynasty, but I am afraid that the Hu people may not be as I wish." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Youzhi breathed a sigh of relief and stopped talking.

Wang Hongyi commanded again: "Order the army to return to the camp, I know that the soldiers and officials are tired, then three days later, the big banquet will reward the ministers, and it happens that it is also a New Year's banquet, and we will do it together." ”

"Everyone has worked hard this year, and I will not only increase the reward, but also take 10 days off so that everyone can have a good rest. Wang Hongyi casually gave his will.

And Gadu wanted to get back to the palace faster.

In front of the gate of the outer palace, a group of inner palace attendants were already waiting there, because of the difference between inside and outside, no matter how anxious the concubines of the inner palace were, it was impossible for them to come outside to greet them.

Seeing the emperor's return, some people immediately rushed to the inner palace, presumably to report the news, and more people bowed down together: "Welcome the emperor back to the palace, long live the emperor, long live, long live, long live." ”

"Get up!"

"Xie Zisui. ”

One is close, it can be five meters long, eight feet horizontally, there is a ring red bar around the seat, and the gems are hanging down, and it cannot be forced to see.

Invited Wang Hongyi to the public opinion, Wang Hongyi took the throne and said: "I will go back to the palace today, I will talk about it later if there is something urgent, and I can play it in if there is an emergency." ”

"Yes!" Zhang Youzhi bowed down and saluted, and then the chamberlain shouted loudly: "Start!"

Suddenly, the sound of fine music began, and a hundred guards and eunuchs held honor guards and marched to the inner palace.

In the inner palace of the palace, there were people waiting early, and in the middle was Queen Song Xinyou.

Because the weather was a little cold, the Queen Mother did not wait in front of the inner palace, but also sent someone here to wait for news.

Wang Hongyi's imperial opinion is here, and everyone who is waiting here kneels down to salute with a "snap", and each salutes the mountain and shouts long live.

Even the queen bowed softly, and Wang Hongyi said gently: "I haven't seen you for a long time, excuse me, and get even." ”

His eyes swept over the queen and the concubines, and found that their faces were full of joy, and said: "The queen came up to sit with me, and the rest followed, and asked the queen mother for peace together." ”

As he spoke, he nodded to Concubine Guifei and Concubine Jin.

Yimen enters, a Pu road goes straight, crosses a jade belt water bridge, and then goes thousands of meters, enters the palace, only to see the yellow glazed tile vermilion wall, and the palace wall eunuchs all bow.

The road was clean, and Wang Hongyi took care of the concubine who followed on foot, and the speed was not fast.

And it has been a long time since he and the queen have been seen, Song Xinyou's face has the joy of reuniting after a long absence, and he can't lose his body in front of everyone, so he sits dignified.

And the concubines behind him, including Zhao Wan, all followed, staring at the emperor's figure.

Wang Hongyi naturally misses the concubine, but at this time, he has to give his wife dignity, and it is not far from the queen mother's palace.

Wang Hongyi came back from a long absence, and he wanted to see the queen mother first, and these harem concubines, including the queen, also wanted to accompany him.

A large group of people went straight to the palace of the Queen Mother.

Passing through the three roads again, there is a main hall in front, this is Cining Palace, Wang Hongyi got off the public opinion, went to Danji, and the palace maids of the palace saw Wang Hongyi enter the hall, and they all saluted.

Wang Hongyi glanced at it, raised his hand and shouted, and asked, "The Queen Mother is in good spirits?"

"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is in good spirits, and today I had a bowl of rice for lunch and a small plate of meat dishes...... Hearing that the emperor is back, the queen mother has a good appetite. ”

After listening to this, Wang Hongyi nodded and said, "You have done a good job, forget it today, and I will have a reward tomorrow." ”

This time, he didn't stay anymore, and when he entered the hall, he saw the queen mother, and stepped forward to salute and say goodbye: "Hello to the queen mother." ”

When the queen mother and son saw each other, they were overjoyed and said, "The emperor has cleared up." ”

He said with a smile: "The emperor is about to sit down, I have a dream in front of me, and I am very happy to hear the good news. ”

Wang Hongyi smiled: "If the world is leveled, there will be Youzhou left, and it can't be done for a while, but it can always be done...... I wonder what the Queen Mother dreamed?"

The Queen Mother was a little intimidated: "I dreamed that I went back to the old days and accompanied your father to the county to buy things, and I don't want to be decades in the blink of an eye." ”

The Queen Mother said, a little sad.

This is not a big matter, because Wang Hongyi is a traverser, and he is passed on to Wang Zunzhi, so he posthumously crowned Wang Zunzhi the emperor, but originally his father only posthumously named King Xu.

This is a bit difficult to do, Wang Hongyi said: "The country has a system, but my mother just rest assured, I will send someone to make a special sacrifice." ”

Saying that, this is the real seat.
