Chapter 273: The Covenant on Paper
In the study of the Han Palace, Xu Cailiu, the owner of the opera house, burst into tears. He sighed and choked up, "I have a younger brother who doesn't even have a wife. I don't know how to explain to my old mother when I see her in the future. When he wanted to go, I tried to dissuade him, but I really didn't expect that the chieftain of Mengyang would be so bloodthirsty and rude..."
Zhu Gaoxu listened to his crying patiently, and then asked, "The jade mine supply in Mengyang was interrupted. How much did the Shen family lose?"
Xu Cailiu still had tears on his face, but he answered fluently, "Many people died in the mine, and the Shen family must sympathize and comfort them. The money we invested in mining for half a year will also be wasted. In addition, the warehouses and workshops built in Tengchong Qianhu Suo and Yongchang Prefecture are vacant, and the hired labor and purchased mules and horses are no longer needed.
At the beginning of this year, my

When the Prince of Han summoned the envoy of the Si family, officials such as Cao Long, the commander-in-chief, and Zhao Nan, the right counselor of the Provincial Administration, also participated. When leaving the Prince of Han's mansion, Zhu Gaoxu casually asked his attendant Duan Xuehen to see him off.Several people came to the Duanli Gate Tower, and Cao Long clasped his fists and said, "Miss Duan, please stay."Duan Xuehen was a little surprised after hearing this. She almost never said a word in front of others, and she was just a decoration standing in the hall, but how did this official know her name? After a moment, Duan Xuehen remembered that when the King of Han ordered her to see the guest off, he gently called her name.Duan Xue thought angrily: These officials not only have sharp ears, but also good memories.But the performance of the Chief Secretary Zhao made Duan Xuehen feel even more surprised. Zhao bent over and said in a flattering
Game of the Throne Chapter 275: Money and Food
Several military generals in the study were laughing happily, and Zhu Gaoxu also smiled in response.At this time, Zhu Gaoxu understood a truth even more: even if they were brothers who shared life and death, their moods would be completely different as long as their positions were different... Of course, the generals could laugh, because as long as there were battles to fight, there would be military merits! But Zhu Gaoxu had to consider another thing, money and food.When it comes to money, no one is friendly to each other.On the Yunnan government side, when the issue of using military force against Mengyangsi was mentioned a few days ago, the commander-in-chief Cao Long was respectful and silent, which shows his attitude.Two years ago, Zhu Gaoxu brought tens of thousands of people to Yunnan Province. The prince's expenses were of course borne by the imperial treasury. But the court's practice was to pass the burden on to the three Yunnan officials
Game of the Throne Chapter 276 Actor
Opera singers don’t need to have good skin. They wear heavy makeup anyway when they go on stage. But you have to have a good voice and expressive eyes.The private room was not big. After Li Louxian sat down nearby, Zhu Gaoxu saw clearly that her skin was a bit dull and indeed not white and tender. No wonder she had to risk her life by taking arsenic.Li Louxian was very famous in Fucheng, Yunnan, but Zhu Gaoxu had never met her before, and for a moment I didn't know what to say. Fortunately, she took the initiative to talk and the atmosphere didn't seem so awkward.Although it was daytime, the light in the theater was not very bright. In this slightly dimmed pavilion room, the slight flaws on the actors' faces were concealed. Listening to Li Louxian's gentle words, Zhu Gaoxu gradually felt comfortable.No one knew how they got to talking about the profession of actors. Li Louxian said in a high-pitched voice, "The better ones are favored by the head o
Game of the Throne Chapter 277 is somewhat true or false
Amidst the sound of the golden drum, the female actress on the stage is wearing a costume, holding a large knife dyed with paint, and spinning vigorously; colorful things are shaking on it, which is dazzling. Every time she turned around to face Zhu Gaoxu, she could see that her eyes were very lively; the stage was far away, but her eyes could make the right expression in an instant, as if they were looking at him.There is also Li Louxian who just left. Is her pear blossom with rain in it just a show? Zhu Gaoxu couldn't tell clearly.Now sitting in front of Mrs. Shen Xu again, she had a very kind and beautiful smile on her face; that smile made Zhu Gaoxu feel like a spring breeze, and felt how much she admired and liked him. Zhu Gaoxu knew in his heart that Shen Xu's attitude towards him was actually a bit complicated."How much of the opera is fake and how real is it?" Zhu Gaoxu looked at the stage and sighed casually.Shen Xu's voice said, "Somewhat
Game of the Throne Chapter 278 While You Are Sick
Zhu Gaoxu did not expect that Sijia would slaughter and destroy the Ming army's fortress in the mine. At least he thought it was unlikely.Zhu Gaoxu had read through the old files of the Tusi and all the records about the Luchuan area, so he made such a judgment. However, he still underestimated Sijia's arrogance or overestimated Tusi's foresight....In that territory, the most arrogant and difficult to control chieftain must be Sijia Chieftain!During the Yuan Dynasty, Sijia's territory was very large and was called Luchuan. The Yuan army could not do anything to them, and the Luchuan Kingdom continued to grow, forcing the Yuan court to make continuous concessions.The situation did not change until the Ming Dynasty entered Yunnan on a large scale. The Ming Dynasty court, the three Yunnan governors, and the Mu government managed the Luchuan area for more than ten years, using the method of divide and rule to "divide the Luchuan area"; it was divided i
Game of the Throne Chapter 279: Forest
The Ming army's vanguard Liu Ying's troops first set out from the Zhenxi Tusi Mansion, with a total of 2,000 soldiers, including both guards and garrison troops. They marched along the north bank of the Taiping River. Zhu Gaoxu also led his troops to follow.As the sun rose, the soldiers were walking to a river beach where the tributaries of the Taiping River converged to form a wide expanse of water. Everyone looked up at the beautiful scenery along the river.In this wild place, the only beauty is probably the natural scenery. Even though it is already autumn, the land is still full of green mountains and clear waters.White clouds float in the blue sky, the edges of which reflect the golden light of the sun. The clear water surface ripples, and white waves splash on the mountains and rivers. There are patches of reeds by the water, and the white flowers are waving in the wind. There is a wonderful and magnificent beauty between heaven and earth.But
Game of the Throne Chapter 280: Combined Armies
The Ming army won a great victory in the first battle. Large groups of military and civilian troops passed through the mountainous area and arrived at the Dongwu Plateau west of the Jinsha River (Irrawaddy River).Not long after, Diao Tuyu, the envoy to pacify Myanmar, led his troops and approached the Ming army camp.Zhu Gaoxu received a report that Diao Tuyu's reinforcements were less than 10,000 men; and when Si Xingfa was fighting a fierce battle with the Ming army in the mountainous area on the southern foot of Gaoligong Mountain, the Diao family kept their troops in place and did not stop Si Xingfa.All these things made Zhu Gaoxu disappointed. The Diao family, the local tyrant, did not provide strong support to the Ming army.However, the Pingmian Xuanweisi at this time was indeed not as good as before. At first, the Pingmian Xuanweisi had a large territory and was actually a kingdom. Later, the chieftains of different sizes fell apart,
Game of the Throne Chapter 281: The Celestial Empire
The decisive battle was repeatedly delayed. From late September to early October, the Ming army, apart from capturing and destroying some military camps, still did not find Sijia's main force.It turned out that Zhu Gaoxu wanted to solve the Meng Yangsi problem before Guo Wei gave birth, but it seemed impossible.He also had to consider a thorny problem: Sijia might choose not to fight this battle.There is still a choice in thinking and doing. He can completely abandon Meng Yangsi's administrative office and the surrounding villages and fields to avoid the Ming army's front. In this way, Sijia would lose a lot of wealth and population, but it would definitely be able to preserve its troops; the Ming army was in the mountainous woods, and it would be too difficult to catch the Sijia chieftain's army.The facts are before us. If Si Xingfa believes that there is no chance of winning this battle, there is really only one best tactic: don't fight...
