When the civil and military officials entered the court, whips were naturally cracked, and after the officials paid their respects, the main event naturally began.
Zhu Yunying looked down at the civil and military officials below and spoke loudly, "Thanks to the might of the Retired Emperor and the valiant efforts of the soldiers, the court was swiftly defeated, with 30,000 killed and countless captured!"
At this point, many civil and military officials disregarded order, and this great victory seemed to be no less impressive than Lan Yu's great victory at Buyur Lake.
This was a crucial victory. Previously, Xu Da and others had driven the Mongols out of the Central Plains dynasty, and the Mongol Yuan dynasty inevitably began its decline. Lan Yu's great victory crippled the Northern Yuan's central government and led to the ensuing infighting among the various Mongol tribes.
This great victory has further weakened the already weakened Tartars. This victory will likely bring the court decades of peace in the north. It is now virtually certain that there is no royal court in the northern deserts, and the Tartars will have no choice but to retreat further north to find any peace.
Under the supervision and reprimands of the censors, the chaotic court began to quiet down. At this moment, Fu Rang made his grand entrance, naturally describing and reporting the results of this battle.
In reality, this was only a partial report of the results of that decisive battle. After all, when Fu Rang returned to report the good news, the imperial army was simultaneously cleaning up the battlefield and continuing the pursuit to expand their gains.
Regardless of the outcome, this was undoubtedly a resounding victory, which greatly excited the entire court. While this victory may not have determined the fate of the Ming Dynasty, it certainly ensured greater peace and stability for the Ming in the north and gave it absolute initiative.
Zhu Yunying sat high on the dragon throne, looking down at the civil and military officials in the hall, taking in all their diverse appearances.
At this moment, Old Zhu slowly spoke up, saying, "Such a great victory upon the new emperor's ascension to the throne is truly a testament to the mandate of heaven! You are all pillars of the court, so please join us in worshipping the heavens!"
A great victory! Such a great victory naturally deserves prayers to Heaven and Earth. Indeed, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty should proclaim this victory to all corners of the world. This is proof of the Ming Dynasty's strength, and the most powerful testament to its glory and grandeur.
The Ming Dynasty was growing stronger day by day, a fact that many civil and military officials were well aware of, which meant that many people kept their own thoughts to themselves.
The emperors of the Ming Dynasty were said to be overly harsh on scholars and literati, and ruthless towards military generals...
Some people felt that the dream of scholar-officials jointly governing the country was difficult to realize, while others felt that holding military power and establishing a separatist regime was already a pipe dream...
Even with the deepest grievances, at this time they could only keep them bottled up. To cause trouble in the Ming Dynasty was not only risking the lives of one's entire family for an impossible future, but also becoming a traitor and villain remembered for all time.
The Ming Dynasty is too powerful now; its strength has instilled despair in many. Its power also makes many more compliant.
At this time, it's best to focus on helping the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty govern the country.
The two people sitting on the dragon throne now are Emperor Hongwu, who established the Ming Dynasty in a chaotic world and whose power was overwhelming.
The young new emperor, at present, seems no match for the Hongwu Emperor. However, he is wise, diligent, and loves his people, and he never hides his ruthlessness and ambition.
Working under these two emperors required caution and, more importantly, a willingness to risk one's life.
Two suns hanging in the sky, both are true dragon emperors, both are destined by heaven!
What's even more crucial is that these two true emperors seem to have no barriers between them; they work together diligently to govern the world. Let us strive to govern the Ming Dynasty well before these two brilliant emperors.
Perhaps their own selfish desires will not succeed, but if they could create a peaceful and prosperous world, or enjoy wealth and honor, that would probably be the pursuit of many people, and perhaps also their dream.
This way, their lives will not have been in vain, and their talents will have been given a place to shine.
The Ming Dynasty was naturally thriving. For those who wanted to achieve great things and realize their ambitions, this was the best era and the best opportunity.
However, making a name for oneself here is no easy feat, as the Ming Dynasty has a wealth of elite officials, both civil and military. Most importantly, neither the retired emperor nor the current emperor are easily fooled; both are ambitious and powerful rulers!
