Chapter 54: Rough words but true
At noon, Zhu Gaoxu was invited by Princess Xu to have lunch, and Prince Yan also came to the dining room. Zhu Gaoxu ate the meal in a very restrained manner, which did not feel like he was having a meal with his parents at all.
However, the dining room of the Prince's Mansion was really luxurious, with valuable antique calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls, fine mahogany furniture in the room, and exquisite tableware from the Jingdezhen official kiln. The dishes were also very rich, and they were completely different from what Zhu Gaoxu enjoyed in the Prince's Mansion!
Eating here and comparing the house with the low houses outside the Prince of Yan's Mansion, Zhu Gaoxu felt like he had traveled through time again. The inside and outside were two worlds with different levels of civilization.
Princess Xu picked up a piece of fried mutton offal for Zhu Gaoxu and sighed softly, "Gaoxu is already of marriageable age, and I am still worried about this ma

The soldiers of Yongping Guard had been transferred away by Prince Yan, and only about 300 people were left to garrison.Zhu Gaoxu retreated to the signing room, where he flipped through the messy files that Jin Zhong had given him before he left, and asked his generals to think of a solution.At this time, Liu Ying, a centurion captured from Xiong County, said, "I have some ideas, but I wonder if I should tell you about them?""Captain Liu, please feel free to speak." Zhu Gaoxu looked up and said.Liu Ying clasped his fists and said, "The local garrison troops are usually divided into defense and farming, and they rotate regularly, and there is a system. In recent years, the garrison system has been rigid, and no one will change the rules before the rotation period. The Prince of Yan has just started his army, and everything is hasty. It is possible that he has only transferred the garrison troops, and the troops who are farming in various places shou
Game of the Throne Chapter 56: Tranquil Great Peace
The city of Daning in the eastern part of Yanshan is still peaceful.A general stood behind the battlements of the city wall. He was dressed in armor, holding the hilt of his sword with his left hand, squinting his eyes and looking into the distance. His name was Li Tai, a general of Daning. He had another identity in private: he was ordered by the court to secretly monitor King Ning.Everything Li Tai saw was so calm, except his heart.It was precisely because there was no movement in Daning City that it seemed so unusual... If Prince Ning Zhu Quan would obey the imperial edict, he should have mobilized his troops, packed up his things and headed to Liaodong. How could he pretend that nothing had happened?Li Tai couldn't pretend nothing happened. Prince Yan had already rebelled in Beiping! Something bad would happen to Daning sooner or later!At this time, a general came up to the city wall, clasped his fists and said, "General, there is a man
Game of the Throne Chapter 57: Reinforcements are coming
In September of the first year of Jianwen, Geng Bingwen's defeat angered the Ming emperor and his ministers, and the court decided to launch an unprecedented large-scale attack on the Prince of Yan!The two sides decided to attack from both sides, with Li Jinglong, Duke of Cao, leading 500,000 central troops in the south, and Wu Gao, Marquis of Jiangyin, leading the Liaodong troops out of the Liaoxi Corridor in the north. By attacking from both sides, it was expected that the rebellion in Beiping would be resolved within the first year of Jianwen!Li Jinglong told his soldiers that they could go home to celebrate the New Year after taking Beijing!...In Hejian Prefecture, the army gathered inside and outside the city, and Li Jinglong stood on the top of the city. He faced the cold wind of late autumn, but his blood was boiling. Looking at the teams of galloping cavalry, the tents, and countless soldiers on the plain, he seemed to be standing on the clouds.

"Reinforcements are coming! King Gaoyang really keeps his word!"Zhu Gaoxu was lying on the top of the city wall when he heard someone nearby shouting excitedly. He used his palm to block the glaring sunlight above his head and stared outside the city with wide eyes. Wu Gao's Liaodong Army was retreating! Behind the fortifications, shovels, hoes, tents and other things were thrown everywhere.Jiangyin Hou Wu Gao was also funny. He traveled thousands of miles to Hebei, bringing thousands of people with him to work on the construction site every day. After working for several days, he didn't fire a single shot or arrow, and then he abandoned the fortifications he had worked so hard to build and ran away with his people.However, what if the King of Yan’s reinforcements did not arrive?Fortunately, the King of Yan really came. First, a group of cavalry crossed the fortifications outside the city and chased northward. Then, in the west, a dark mass of flag
Game of the Throne Chapter 59 The woman in the room
When Prince Yan arrived at the Yongping Guard Office, he immediately took the seat that Zhu Gaoxu usually sat in and sat down steadily on the official seat. After greeting, Prince Yan quickly turned his head and looked at Zhu Gaoxu, who was sitting below him, and said, "The court should not have deposed Prince Ning. What strategy did Gaoxu use?"Zhu Gaoxu thought quickly for a moment. He didn't want to stand out too much. He just wanted to help his father quietly... Helping Prince Yan was also helping himself.However, since the King of Yan asked, lying would be superfluous and would be even more troublesome if it was exposed in the future.People living in the world, of course, have to tell lies; but when it is possible to tell the truth, it is better to tell the truth, simple. This was Zhu Gaoxu's habit in his previous life.Zhu Gaoxu reached into his arms and began to take something out, attracting the attention of everyone standing in the lobby.

The next morning, the King of Yan led his troops out of Yongping City.The army crossed the Great Wall from Liujiakou one after another, and headed straight for Daning City along a mountain road between the mountains. At this time, the grass and trees in the mountains were all withered and yellow, and the wind was filled with a bleak and murderous atmosphere.After walking five or six hundred miles, the King of Yan led his troops to the city of Daning.The gates of Daning were tightly shut. The King of Yan looked up from his horse and saw soldiers standing on the city wall, with flags and banners everywhere, ready for battle. A man in a red robe stood out.Prince Yan stopped his attendants and rode alone towards the city wall. Upon closer inspection, he saw that the young man in the red dragon robe was none other than Prince Ning, Zhu Quan.Zhu Quan also saw the Prince of Yan riding alone. He was facing this side and shouted, "Fourth brother, you
Game of the Throne Chapter 61: The Unexpected
The government troops came from the south, and the largest number of people gathered outside the Lizheng Gate, the south gate of Peking. There were roars of artillery fire and billowing smoke outside the city, but the prince was still personally in charge at the Lizheng Gate!Zhu Gaoxu, Yao Guangxiao and others also stood beside the prince, and the people in the tower couldn't help coughing from time to time. The thick smoke from the burning gunpowder and fierce oil was very choking.The smell of burning kerosene was like a mixture of gasoline and asphalt. Zhu Gaoxu felt as if he was in a shabby thirty-year-old truck.Although the people on the tower were high up, their vision was obstructed by the thick smoke and they could not see the outside clearly. From time to time, soldiers would walk into the tower and kneel on one knee to report the situation. When the artillery fire was dense, even the voices of people were often unclear. The atmosphere around was

Qu Neng had a flat forehead and high brow bones, which made his eyes appear even deeper. He stared at the Zhangyi Gate Tower for a long time, and his eyes made the surrounding generals feel sad.His son Qu Liangcai said, "What a pity! So many brothers died in vain, and still failed!"A general next to him simply cursed, "Li Jinglong, damn it, is it so difficult to send some reinforcements?!"Qu Liangcai pondered, "Father gave frank advice in Hejian Prefecture, which seemed to have offended Duke Cao. I heard that Duke Cao is narrow-minded, is he deliberately doing something bad behind my back?"The general just now angrily cursed, "His brain was kicked by a donkey! We conquered Peking, but the greatest credit should go to Li Jinglong, right?"Qu Neng sighed, retracted his gaze, turned his horse around, and raised his arm to stop his generals, "Duke Cao would not do this, maybe there was a mistake in the transmission of military orders.
