Chapter 895: Simple People
Zhu Gaoxu suddenly woke up in the early morning. After a while, he came to his senses and realized that he was in Guo Wei's bedroom and felt very stuffy.
He got up and put on his clothes. He found a half-cooked pot of cold water on the red clay stove, picked up a blue and white teacup, and filled two cups of cold water. Guo Wei also woke up. She looked at Zhu Gaoxu with sleepy eyes and asked, "Is it time to get up?"
Zhu Gaoxu glanced at the window curtains and said, "It's not dawn yet, you should sleep a little longer."
After he said that, he still sat beside the cold red clay stove, a little absent-minded.
After a while, Guo Wei held the quilt to cover her body and sat up on the big bed. Then she found the lining and dressed in the quilt. There was no attendant in the palace, only two people. Guo Wei and Zhu Gaoxu had been together for many years and were very familiar with each other; but she had always been more reserved and would hardly take the in

In the court, all government offices had opened their seals and officials had returned to their offices.Zhu Gaoxu attended the morning court in the rain, but he didn't mind, since he had an umbrella. But most of the ministers got their robes and boots wet.After leaving Fengtian Gate, Zhu Gaoxu went to Rouyi Palace, which was closer to here. He immediately summoned Qi Tai, Ru Rong, and Hou Hai, saying that he wanted to discuss military affairs... In fact, he wanted to arrange a tour with troops this year, leaving the capital where he had stayed for several years and going out for a walk. Such a major event must of course be discussed with the court officials first.

When it was chilly spring in the capital of the Ming Dynasty, it was still like summer in Zhenla.However, the cool season had not yet ended, and unless one was exposed to the sun at its highest point in the sky, the weather was not too hot most of the time. At this time, the situation in Angkor Wat was very chaotic, the people in the city were in panic, and the palace was shrouded in gloom.The general had already fled back to the royal city from the sea. He talked about the current situation in front of King Benhaya and suddenly said something harsh in anger, "The stupidity of the queen's family has led to the eternal destruction of the Kingdom of Zhenla."At this time, Queen Isuwa was right next to the king. The atmosphere in the hall immediately became very awkward. The general seemed to realize that he had made a slip of the tongue, so he stopped talking and did not say anything more.Yisuwa immediately responded coldly, "I'm afraid your experienc
Game of the Throne Chapter 898: Prosperity is often like a dream
The king and queen had been in the temple for less than ten days before Angkor Thom was captured.At this time, the Siamese army had been besieging Angkor for several days. Because Angkor was short of soldiers and the king had taken away a large number of elite guards, the Siamese finally found a loophole on the wall of Angkor where the defenders were sparse; late last night, the Siamese sent warriors to secretly climb up the wall, and then the situation got out of control.After the Siamese warriors took over a city gate during a surprise attack at night and a large number of troops poured into the city, the defense of the royal city collapsed completely like a dam bursting.Upon hearing the news, Queen Isova hurriedly climbed to the top of a scripture-repository in Angkor Wat, located in the northwest corner of the first-floor corridor. She was immediately shocked by the scene in front of her and froze on the stone wall.A raging fire had broken out

The visitor was a young man wearing a pointed hat. Isuwa had already recognized him as a member of the Household Minister, Naye's family. When Naye turned his head to look at the door and took off his hat, Isuwa was even more certain.Naiya once became a monk in the temple of Angkor Wat. Isova, who was a devout Buddhist, had seen him when she went to burn incense. She had an impression of him because the Minister of the Palace who accompanied her at that time had specially introduced the younger generation of his family to the queen.Most Chenla people become monks and serve the Buddha for a period of time before returning to secular life. It seems that Naye has not been secular for long, and his hair is still very light.The two of them said something similar at the same time, "The Lord Chamberlain sent you (me)."Naye was stunned for a moment and then said, "Can we talk somewhere else?"Since they were acquaintances and they were in Phnom Penh

In the Ming army camp, the Chinese army tent received news that the queen of Zhenla Kingdom was actually here.Liu Ming, the Ming envoy in charge of diplomatic relations, must be responsible for this matter. Liu Ming found the matter unbelievable, and he had been busy with many things recently; but the eunuch Meng Ji persuaded him to ask him personally. Liu Ming agreed with the eunuch's opinion, and the two of them walked out of the Chinese army's tent.Accompanied by the captain of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, two soldiers on duty as well as an interpreter, Liu Ming and Meng Ji went to the simple shed outside the headquarters that was used to receive foreign guests.This military camp was originally a remote place, located at the northwest end of the small peninsula in Sai Kung Bay, but now it has changed greatly. The polygonal stone-based rammed earth fortress not far away has begun to take shape; the dust is flying under the "West Hill", and tools and m

Meng Ji found a pair of chopsticks to block the tea leaves in the iron cup, and then poured the tea into two Jingdezhen blue and white porcelain cups, which were originally intended for export. This cup of tea was quite dull to drink, Liu Ming did not speak, and Meng Ji also kept calm.At some point, Liu Ming seemed to be hesitant to speak and glanced at Meng Ji. However, after a while, Liu Ming suddenly stood up and said , "Thank you, Eunuch Meng, for the tea."Hearing this, Meng Ji was stunned for a moment, and finally couldn't help but said, "You can soak it twice more, Liu Shijun, don't be anxious, sit for a while."Liu Ming had no choice but to sit back on the wooden bench.Meng Ji had no choice but to ask, "The Siamese and the Champa people have been here for a few days. We can't delay this any longer. Does Envoy Liu have any plans?"Liu Ming's expression became serious. He pondered for a moment and said, "What the Zhenla people did was ver

After the discussion in the Chinese army's tent was over, Meng Ji came out with Liu Shijun. All morning, Eunuch Meng said nothing; he was just a bystander, wasting one of the only two chairs up there.After a while, a sergeant came to report that the Siamese were cursing loudly after returning to their residence, but they had no idea what they were talking about.Meng Ji turned to Ambassador Liu and asked, "Would you like to send a general over to listen?"Liu Ming said, "It's nothing more than resentment and dissatisfaction." He paused and said, "If you are resentful, let them send someone to the capital to pay homage."Meng Ji reminded calmly, "I'm afraid that Siam will not listen to our dissuasion and will still attack Phnom Penh City."Liu Ming pondered for a while and said, "This time I went to Phnom Penh City with the Zhenla envoys, just in time to put their promises on paper in front of the kings and ministers of Zhenla Kingdom. Then I wil
Game of the Throne Chapter 903: A lot of trouble
The last time the capital received news from Wang Jinghong and Chen Xuan, it was still early spring when the weather was still cold; and this time, when the eunuch Meng Ji and others returned to the capital to report the news, the weather was getting hotter. In the Ming territory covering thousands of miles, there would be almost no progress without a year or two.Zhu Gaoxu remembered that he had drunk Chaozhou tea with his ministers when he was dealing with the southern maritime affairs last time. He could remember this detail because the eunuch Cao Fu recently brought a small can of Yunnan tea; Zhu Gaoxu then remembered what he said at that time, that he was still used to the taste of Yunnan tea.Of course, Zhu Gaoxu just said it casually, and he almost forgot it. The tea produced in the southern provinces has its own taste, and he is not very picky about it. It was just because Zhu Gaoxu was a vassal king in Yunnan for several years, and the transportation ther
