Seven hundred and sixtieth chapters the spirit of the army
Why did the Huns be the family before they were destroyed? Huo Qubing, a young hero in fresh clothes and angry horses, left behind this famous saying that has been passed down through the ages.
As for Zhu Cilang, Zhu Cilang is now eighteen years old and is just in her youth. At the age of eighteen, it is indeed early for Zhu Cilang to get married, but for this era, he is already an older young man.
Xiao Shishi is about sixteen years old and is in her prime. She cannot delay others. If you want to get married, you have to hurry up.
When the prince chooses a concubine, he has to choose one in a thousand or even one in a thousand. At that time, Empress Yi'an Zhang Yan was a peerless beauty selected from thousands of beauties.
Zhu Cilang didn't pick on it anymore. Xiao Shishi has been a beauty since she was a child. When she grew up, she thought she wouldn't be able to go there.
However, Zhu Cilang is in Sichuan and may not be able to return to the capital in a short period of time. However, this is not important. If he cannot return to the capital, he can also decide the marriage first.
So Zhu Ciyang sent a letter to the capital.
The letter was written by Zhu Cilang and written to Emperor Chongzhen. The content of the letter was also very down-to-earth: Father, the son-in-law wants to get married. He has been born in the Zhu family for a long time. The son-in-law met a virtuous woman in Huajiazhuang. The father had heard of this person, and he was the daughter of Chen Muzhi, the former head of the Ministry of Personnel. The son-in-law, he wanted to marry this daughter. If he was not her crown princess, the son-in-law would not be the second person.
"Wangcai, strong fortune! Go, go to the post station to find the bastard, and send this letter to the capital." Zhu Cilang folded the good letter and handed it to Wangcai.
Wangcai said "Oh" and put it in his arms: "Your Highness, when will we return to Beijing?"
Zhu Cilang was stunned and looked at Wangcai: "What, I miss the capital."
Wangcai said "Yes": "We have been out for several years. Don't your Highness miss home?"
"I think about it, otherwise why would I ask you bastard to deliver a letter?"
"Oh, that servant is gone. Your Highness, is this letter for Miss Shishi?"
Wangcai was a little abnormal today, and Zhu Cixuan looked him up and down: "You have nothing to do with eggs, why are you asking so many things? You are so brave. Is this what you bastard should ask?"
In his military camp career, Zhu Cilang is no longer the gentle and polite prince before. In fact, Zhu Cilang has never been polite.
It’s just that the palace rules are strict. When Zhu Cilang was in the palace, even if he was unwilling to do so, he had to pretend to be gentle and elegant.
Since he led the 12th Regiment Battalion to pacify the enemy, Zhu Cilang was already full of the spirit of the army. After staying with the rude men for a long time, he started to talk swear words.
As for Wangcai, he regarded Zhu Cilang as his boss, rather than his former master.
This is military discipline, this is military life. If you lead a war, you cannot be elegant, and you cannot be polite.
If this is the case, you, the coach, have long been isolated. You damn bastard, I, or something like that. If you are heard by the deacon and eunuch in the capital, you will have to cause a big disaster.
At least, the eunuch would persuade him hard, and then he would bring out the various rules and etiquettes of his ancestors. Even after a big mess, he would go to Chongzhen and give the prince a charge of misconduct.
In fact, leading troops abroad to fight is much more comfortable than being in the capital. At least, there are not so many rules and etiquette constraints, and there are not so many dogmas.
In the palace, you must have your own etiquette when standing, sitting, walking and standing. Including Emperor Chongzhen himself, from this point of view, the emperor is actually not free.
Wangcai was indeed a little strange. Facing Zhu Cilang's doubts, he stumbled for a moment and had to say, "Your Highness, you last night..."
"Last night? What's wrong with me last night?" Zhu Cilang looked confused.
"Last night, the villain was on duty outside the hall. Your Highness spoke in his sleep all night. Your Highness recited Miss Shishi's name ninety-eight times last night. If Your Highness really wants Miss Shishi, then go back to Beijing earlier."
"Get out!" Zhu Cilang, who was furious, grabbed a book on the table and threw it over.
Wangcai walked and hid: "Really, the villain counted carefully. His Highness recited the name of Miss Shishi last night, and it was 98 times."
This is really embarrassing. Zhu Cilang really dreamed of Xiao Shishi. In the dream of the whole night last night, there were shadows of Xiao Shishi. Zhu Cilang dreamed that she grew up and dreamed that she called Brother Zhu sweetly. There was also the pig boss, who only knew how to eat...
As for whether he was talking in his sleep, Zhu Cilang naturally couldn't remember it. However, judging from Wangcai's serious appearance, it was not impossible for him to recite Xiao Shishi's name ninety-eight times.
But, the secret guard Meng Fanchao who came back from outside, heard Wangcai's shout: "Wangcai, why ninety-eight times?"
Wangcai glanced at Zhu Cilang, and Zhu Cilang said angrily: "Meng Fanchao, drag Wangcai out and chopped it!"
Meng Fanchao was shocked and then realized that this was the prince's joke. Wangcai shrank his neck and tightened his letter in his arms: "I won't tell you."
Meng Fanchao was inexplicably so Wangcai went there with a letter.
"Your Highness, the villain has found out clearly. This time the rebellion was caused by some local gangsters. These natives lived in seclusion in the dense forests outside the city. The reason why they came out to rob was that they were short of clothes in the mountains."
Zhu Cixuan entered Chengdu Prefecture, and although the 12th Regiment conquered Sichuan, the land of Sichuan was not peaceful, especially in remote areas with high mountains and dense forests, some local indigenous tribes did not obey the court at all.
These local natives are called the Yao people. Since the Song Dynasty, there have been Yao people in rebellion in the south.
In fact, by the Ming Dynasty, these indigenous tribes in the mountains had integrated into the lives of the local people. The indigenous people also accepted the rule of the court.
After Zhang Xianzhong's troops entered Sichuan, they implemented a terrifying killing policy. Many indigenous people had to hide in the mountains and forests and farm and hunt in the dense forests of mountains.
They lacked necessary daily necessities because they did not dare to trade with local people. So robbery became one of their solutions to their daily necessities needs.
The 12th Regiment Battalion has encircled and suppressed them several times, but some places have high mountains and dense forests, and are not familiar with the terrain. These indigenous tribes are elusive and difficult to be wiped out.
Zhu Cixuan was also quite tolerant of the measures taken by these indigenous people. As long as they captured the prisoners, they would explain the court's policies to them. Now Sichuan is no longer a territory where bandits are rampant, and it has returned to the jurisdiction of the Ming court.
The court has laws, as long as you comply with the laws of the Ming Dynasty, the court will not ignore you, and you tribes living in seclusion in the mountains and forests can move here. The court will allocate territory for you and encourage you to reclaim land and have enough food and clothing.
