Chapter 477: A battle to wash away the shame!



Bumbutai looked at Zhu Youxiao with a complicated expression. She said, "Your Majesty, take care."

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said, "Don't worry, we will meet again one day. On that day, you will officially become my concubine."

The imperial edict of conferring the title has already been sent to Khorchin, and it is impossible for him to deny it unless both sides fall out and the alliance is annulled.

But there is no doubt about this kind of thing. Who knows what the final outcome will be?

However, Zhu Youxiao believed that even if the two sides fell out, he and Dayuer would have a chance to meet again. If he did not take her back this time, he would have less trouble.

"Come here, send him away." Zhu Youxiao ordered directly.

Now that Dayuer was gone, Zhu Youxiao couldn't stay in Shanhaiguan for too long.

Besides, there's no need to meet Xiong Tingbi here. The next time we meet Xiong Tingbi, we'll have to wait until he returns to Beijing to report on his work, or until Liaodong starts another war.

However, if another war breaks out in Liaodong, Zhu Youxiao probably won’t come.

The car left Shanhaiguan and Zhu Youxiao went directly to the capital without saying a word along the way.

I returned to the capital that day.

The battle report had already been transmitted back to the capital. After the initial shock and disbelief, and finally acceptance and shock, the capital also experienced a turbulence.

No one expected that His Majesty would go from Zhangjiakou to Shanhaiguan, command such a war, and win it.

This is really hard to believe! Especially the performance of the emperor's personal army in this battle is simply jaw-dropping!

In an instant, Zhu Youxiao's reputation rose instantly, and it could be said that he was unrivaled.

The slogan of the wise leader of the revival of the country was shouted out at this time.

No one dared to stand up and oppose, and the movement became very powerful for a while.

This kind of thing was naturally arranged by Zhu Youxiao early on. He would not forget that he needed to create momentum for public opinion.

What's more, if they really won this time, it would be a battle to wash away the shame for the Ming Dynasty, and he deserves such treatment.

At the same time, it also lets the people in the capital know how powerful the royal army is, so they should not make trouble.

After returning to the capital, Zhu Youxiao went straight back to the palace.

In the next few days, Zhu Youxiao did not attend court or summon ministers, but just stayed with Empress Zhang and his son.

The entire capital was eerily quiet, and there was a feeling that a storm was about to come.

Everyone knows what His Majesty has done, and a lot of news has been reported back.

Winning the war was a good thing, and forming an alliance with Mongolia wasn't a big deal. But when they heard that His Majesty was going to marry a Mongolian woman, some people couldn't accept it. They held their breath and tried to persuade him.

The entire capital city was filled with an atmosphere of surprise, but also a hint of depression.

The Imperial Palace.

Zhu Youxiao summoned Wei Zhongxian.

In recent times, Wei Zhongxian has been under tremendous pressure.

During the incident at Zhangjiakou, the Imperial Guards performed exceptionally well and earned the emperor's trust. So what should the Eastern Depot do?

For the East Factory, this is a difficult matter!

However, Wei Zhongxian was also a capable person, and he quickly found a point of entry.

For the East Factory and the Embroidered Uniform Guard, their role is to guard the emperor's door. They have to go there when there is something going on, and they have to go there even if there is nothing going on.

What to do if nothing happens?

If there is nothing going on, create something. How can we not create something?

Zhu Youxiao looked at Wei Zhongxian and said, "This is the third time you have come to see me. What do you want to say? Tell me."

Wei Zhongxian knew that the emperor might be unhappy, but he still had to take the gamble.

Wei Zhongxian said, "Your Majesty, this servant has discovered something, but I really don't dare to make a decision, so I have come to report it to Your Majesty."

Zhu Youxiao took one look at Wei Zhongxian and knew that this person was up to something. But he was also very curious. Wei Zhongxian wanted to see him so many times. How could he be so sure?

If the matter was not serious, Wei Zhongxian would be in big trouble.

During this period, Zhu Youxiao stayed in seclusion and did not want to show up in public. Wei Zhongxian was anxious to ask him for help, as this was a big deal.

"Your Majesty, I have discovered something." Wei Zhongxian looked at Zhu Youxiao and said, "It's about those foreigners in the Ming Dynasty. I discovered that they are plotting something bad."

After hearing this, Zhu Youxiao immediately became interested and sat up straight.

This was a big deal for Zhu Youxiao. He asked, "What are those people planning to do? Are they gathering together to plot a rebellion?"

"That's not the case." Wei Zhongxian said somewhat embarrassedly, "They are spreading their heretical doctrines."

"Oh, really?" Zhu Youxiao looked at Wei Zhongxian and asked, "What's going on? Tell me."

"Yes, Your Majesty. There was a man named Wang Zheng, who passed the imperial examination in the second year of the Tianqi reign, at the age of fifty-two. Because Wang Zheng had been baptized and converted to Christianity, he immediately wrote a letter to his family, warning them not to take a concubine for him, saying, 'My success today is all God's gift. How dare I sin against God with something God has given me?' Since he took the imperial examination ten times before finally achieving first place, and this happened shortly after his baptism, Wang Zheng firmly believed that his success was due to God's blessing."

"His passing the exam was clearly a gift from the Holy Emperor! His gratitude to the Catholic Church is truly sinister. As a subject, he lacks loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, and instead believes in something called God. This is simply a heinous crime!"

"Later, he was appointed magistrate of Guangping Prefecture in Zhili. Shortly thereafter, his entire family followed him there. Although his wife, Shang, had given birth to several sons, they all died of smallpox, leaving only two daughters alive. Faced with the pleadings of his wife and daughter, the weeping of his brothers and nephews, and his father's strict instructions, Wang Zheng's heart softened. In the third year of the Tianqi reign, he secretly married the fifteen-year-old Shen as a concubine, hoping to have a son to continue the family line."
