The Emperor, in the Mandate of Heaven, decrees: The local governor of Yuezhou, Azi, was stubborn and refused to be civilized; he has been killed and his place has been changed to a temporary official. Now the barbarians over there are rebelling again and are unwilling to obey. Our court cannot let this happen.
King Gao Xu of Han was a prudent military commander, so he ordered him to take the guards and garrison troops to settle the Yuezhou incident and then report back. The Marquis of Xiping and the three officials of Yunnan were all required to follow Gao Xu's instructions and do a good job.
Yunnan is a long way away, so from now on, if the military commander needs to deploy troops, he must go to the Hanwang Mansion and Xipinghou Mansion to give them a heads-up.
...Zhu Gaoxu sent the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict out of Chengyun Hall. Seeing the young chief secretary Li Mo standing nearby, he asked him to arrange food and lodging for the eunuchs a
This courtyard to the west of the Hou Mansion was originally where the horseman Yang Sheng lived. At this time, there were many people standing here, because the Marquis Mu Sheng came in person.Mu Sheng nodded and raised his hand to make gestures. He was unable to respond to the courteous words of the officials and servants one by one.He walked under the eaves, stared at the clothes hanging on the rope, and reached out to touch them gently. Those clothes seemed to have been hung for a long time and were covered with a little dust; but they were made very smooth and did not look like the work of someone with rough hands and feet."Is there a woman in Yang Yong's family?" Mu Sheng asked.One of the slaves said, "In response to the Marquis, Yang Laizi is a bachelor, but some people have seen women coming in and out of his house from time to time."Mu Sheng asked again, "What kind of woman?"No one could tell clearly for a while, but it was p
In early August, Zhu Gaoxu bid farewell to the officials of various Yunnan departments and the people of the city, and led his army out of the city.There were nearly 10,000 ceremonial guards and guards accompanying him, as well as 5,000 regular infantry soldiers of the guard station. Chariots, horses, baggage, artillery, firearms, armor, and weapons are all available. The mighty troops came out from the east gate of Yunnan Mansion, marched northeast along the post road, and soon entered the mountainous area.Most of the post roads in the mountains were built along the valleys and were winding. The team of more than 10,000 people had no end in sight, with colorful flags covering the sky and gorgeous ceremonial guards, which was also a huge scene.The army marched very slowly; every time they arrived at a town or post station, Zhu Gaoxu ordered them to set up camp, beat gongs and drums, and fire cannons at the mountains and forests. The loud sound of the cann
In late autumn, the weather here is not cold, but the temperature difference between day and night is large, and it becomes cooler after nightfall. Zhu Gaoxu put on a cloak and walked outside the tent of Liu Taizhi's sworn brother Ma Peng.Liu Tai and others are not criminals, and there is no need to isolate them for interrogation; but if we separate them and talk to them again, perhaps we will be able to get to the truth more easily."You wait outside." Zhu Gaoxu said to the guards around him. Everyone who came today was searched and did not bring weapons, so Zhu Gaoxu was not worried.Zhao Ping clasped his fists and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."There was a pile of firewood burning in the tent, and an iron kettle hanging from above was emitting white steam and gurgling sounds. Zhu Gaoxu felt a wave of heat coming towards him, and he immediately untied his cloak as soon as he came in."I pay my respects to the prince!" Ma Peng immediately stood up
The street in front of Kunming County Government Office is called Xianqian Street.There was a carriage by the street, and the young man sitting in front of the carriage with a whip in his hand was Yao Fang. Yao Fang was wearing a short grey cloth coat and a straw hat on his head.Looking from this side, you can just see the screen wall of the county government office diagonally opposite, and even the carving of a beast swallowing the sun on the screen wall can be seen clearly.At this moment, Yao Fang saw Mu Sheng, wearing a lion-embroidered troupe collar, walking out of the county government office. Mu Sheng suddenly held onto the wall, and vomited by the wall with a "vomit..." sound! Several people around Mu Sheng hurried forward to hold him, and someone handed him a handkerchief.There was a faint voice, and Mu Sheng asked, "Can you confirm that the dead body inside is really Yang Yong's body?"Several people were talking, and one of them sai
"More than a month!? The King of Han put down the rebellion in Yuezhou?" Mu Sheng sat on a mahogany chair, his eyes wide open with confusion.A general in a red robe stood in front of him. He clasped his fists and said, "It is absolutely true. The notice from the military commander will be posted soon! A victory report has just been sent back from Dongshan, Yuezhou. The Han army has beheaded more than 500 people and captured more than 20 criminals and bandit leaders. They will return to Yunnan Prefecture soon."The red-robed general paused and said in a deep voice, "According to reports, the King of Han didn't take more than a month. He was still drinking and having fun in Qujing Prefecture during the Mid-Autumn Festival. It's been more than half a month since he arrived in Yuezhou..."Mu Sheng said, "The mountains in the east of Yuezhou are high and densely forested, the roads are difficult to travel, and the situation of the various camps is complicated. E
There was a sea of people outside the city of Kunming. Countless civilians were blocked on both sides of the avenue by soldiers wearing armor and strong weapons. There were endless cheers from the crowd. There was a "cracking" sound on the top of the city, and there were even firecrackers set off.Civil and military officials in various official robes stood outside the city gate, waiting to welcome the King of Han's carriage.Zhu Gaoxu was sitting in the carriage without getting out of the carriage. At this time, he could hear various voices singing praises of virtues outside, such as thunderous power to intimidate the barbarians, martial arts that favored history, and so on.But he was sitting in the carriage and did not come out to see everyone.The Han prince's guard of honor numbered several hundred people, and with the help of tens of thousands of guards, he went straight to the palace. Zhu Gaoxu ordered the guard commanders Wang Bin, Wei Da, and
Zhu Gaoxu looked at Yao Ji's red eyes and guessed in his heart: Although she was not sure about the identity of the man in front of her, she should have some belief.He then said, "When Yao Fengji left home, Yao Ji was still young; but you have an older brother who should recognize your father. Is your brother in Yunnan now?"Yao Ji turned around when she heard the voice. Zhu Gaoxu looked into her eyes and nodded seriously.She hesitated for a moment and said softly, "My brother is also in Yunnan."After hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu was relieved... He usually cared about Bigger, and it seemed to be useful; now Yao Ji could trust him and believed that he would not do something too despicable, such as finding someone to pretend to be Yao Fengji and trick her into confessing who her brother was."Then why don't you go find your brother now to confirm Yao Fengji's identity?" Zhu Gaoxu asked kindly.Yao Ji had calmed down a little by then, and looked
Zhu Gaoxu looked at the smile on Yao Ji's face, and then looked thoughtful. He seemed to be wondering what her smile meant.In Yao Ji's eyes, Zhu Gaoxu is such a person, always looking like he is thinking about something. He rarely asked people directly, usually thinking about it for a while or not saying it at all.At this time, Yao Ji wanted to tell him directly why she was laughing. Her red lips were slightly opened, but she found it difficult to explain clearly, so she gave up with a slight sigh.Yao Ji has discovered since she was a child that people think like this: What benefits can I get from you? If I help you, will you be grateful and return the favor?Perhaps because of those experiences, she was very sensitive to such thoughts.So when she heard what Zhu Gaoxu said, she laughed somehow... Zhu Gaoxu said: This will make you happy, and this is always a good thing for you.Yao Ji finally spoke, "I appreciate your kindness, Your Maj
