Every day, he gets up at 3 o'clock and does various queue training. Qin Botong, who is physically trained, comes back immediately after taking a shower and starts brushing his teeth and washing his face. He is determined that he is indeed in the same position as his comrades and then climbs onto the bed to prepare for bed.

He was taken care of for more than ten days in a row and could not help but swear that even if he was beaten to death in the future, he would not say in front of others that he wanted to be promoted and make a fortune.

Qin Botong felt that he was like that boy Chang Yanling, and he always said that he wanted to serve the Ming Dynasty and be loyal to His Majesty, so that Mr. Lu would let him go.

"Sometimes people have to learn to speak big and empty talk." Many years later, the Grand Marshal Qin Botong, who swept across Europe, also said this when recalling his comrade Chang Yanling.

“Urgent gathering!”

Suddenly, a whistle sound outside made Qin Botong, who was repenting about his desire to get promoted and make money, immediately turned over and started to put on his clothes, fearing that he would be one second late.

Now he has become accustomed to such emergency gatherings that come from time to time, and is also used to being taken out of the Forbidden City by Mr. Lu and running along Jingshan.

This time, Qin Botong quickly stood in front of Mr. Lu, Oboi and Chang Yanling arrived. Seeing this, he couldn't help but joke about Oboi:

"Hey, I said, Mr. Chang is for the Ming Dynasty. What are you doing? Did Huang Taiji stole your concubine and put you on a cuckold? So you defected to me, Da Ming, and wanted to seek revenge on Huang Taiji in the future."

"I believe it or not, I will blow your teeth now!"

Oboi was about to show his fist, and Lu Xiangsheng's whip came directly: "Did I let you talk? I have memorized the discipline of the scriptures many times, can't remember it? I lay down and do push-ups until I am satisfied!"

Qin Botong spat at Oboi and lie on the ground and started doing it.

Since Oboi was captured by Lu Xiangsheng, he only listened to two people in the Ming Dynasty, one was Zhu Youxiao and the other was Lu Xiangsheng.

Therefore, he didn't dare to resist after being whipped by Lu Xiangsheng. He just glared at Qin Botong and started push-ups obediently.

...

It was New Year's Eve, and Zhu Youxiao's unique New Year message that he had made a few days ago had already been posted all the major city gates in the capital. At the same time, the new newspaper "Kyoto Daily" hosted by the Ministry of Rites and the "Da Ming Daily" which has been sold all over the country also published the front page of His Majesty the Ming Emperor's New Year message.

It seems that because of this, the New Year of the Eight Years of the Apocalypse seems to have a different New Year atmosphere from previous years.

The people of the Ming Dynasty, especially scholars from the bottom, discovered that they could communicate so closely with the emperor and they could also receive blessings from the king.

The royalists even promoted Zhu Youxiao's people-friendly behavior. His reputation as a carpenter emperor and his family-finding emperor began to change slowly between the markets.

In addition, because it was the new year and the new atmosphere, even God stopped and the heavy snow fell for several days.

Even, according to Sun Chengzong's report, several prefectures and counties in the Qin and Jin areas that had been drought in the long-drought Qin and Jin areas have finally ushered in a rain, and this year it is expected to save some of the winter wheat harvest.

Moreover, due to the construction and dredging of water conservancy, land reclamation, promotion of crops such as sweet potatoes, and clarification of administration, tens of thousands of refugees have returned to their hometowns and rebuilt their homes.

At the same time, the Minister of Works, Huo Weihua, who visited various places and supervised various projects, came to report that the river dredging projects of the Yellow River, Yangtze River, Huai River and other rivers were progressing smoothly, and 100,000 displaced people have participated and were properly resettled. It is expected that he, the six Ministers, will be able to spend a happy year in the Yellow River with 100,000 people.

After learning about it, Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but order the cabinet to approve his beloved ministers in a memorial to share the joy of being a layman in June 1st, and rewarded him with a bullfighting suit.

There is little gossip. Although it was New Year's Eve, as the emperor, Zhu Youxiao had to go to Taimiao to worship early in the morning.

Looking at the rows of tablets and hanging statues in the Taimiao, from Zhu Yuanzhang, the Emperor Hongwu of the Ming Dynasty, to his father Zhu Changluo, who had succeeded to the throne for only one month.

Zhu Youxiao seemed to have experienced the vicissitudes of the Ming Dynasty in an instant, until this time, the empire was helmed by itself.

The state education valued etiquette, which was even more so in the Ming Dynasty, which restored Chinese etiquette. The people even opened ancestral halls, held big banquets, and slaughtered pigs and sheep to serve the rituals of ancestors.

As the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youxiao was a symbol of the imperial etiquette and order, and the etiquette was naturally more complicated. After just one sacrifice in the Taimiao Temple, he had to complete countless rituals.

By the end of the sacrifice, it was already evening, and Zhu Youxiao had to put the government affairs aside and give himself a night of vacation.

Queen Zhang Yan will also show her wife's tenderness at this time.

Under Zhu Youxiao's guidance, she has become proficient in various massage techniques. Every time less than a stick of incense is spent, Zhu Youxiao's tired body can recover her energy under the queen's massage, and her whole body is as comfortable as if she is soft.

Liu Rushi would also sensibly bring a basin of hot water to soak Zhu Youxiao's feet.

The sleepy Zhu Youxiao enjoyed the quiet state now. If it weren't for the late Ming Dynasty and the crisis was full of dangers, he would rather be a successful emperor like this and live quietly with his beloved concubines in this isolated Forbidden City.

Maybe when he is in a good mood, he can enjoy the scenery in various places in a condom, even if he is as good as Emperor Zhengde.

Whether it is civil officials, eunuchs, or military officers, they will be allowed to fight, and they will not bother to take care of them.

But according to historical arrangements, my Ming Dynasty had only had seventeen years of national destiny from now on, and therefore I was destined to be as diligent as Chongzhen.

"My minister, Lu Xiangsheng has seen Your Majesty!"

In order to train the officers, Lu Xiangsheng was left in the palace by Zhu Youxiaoqiang, so he was unable to go home for the New Year.

Seeing this, Empress Zhang Yan simply issued an order to order the people in the palace to take Lu Xiangsheng's family into the palace to stay temporarily to relieve Lu Xiangsheng's thoughts of reunion.

Zhu Youxiao also took the initiative to invite Lu Xiangsheng and his family to celebrate New Year's Eve with him, the emperor.

This is an unprecedented glory. Lu Xiangsheng is here to personally give a thank-you note.

Zhu Youxiao didn't have much leisure to read the genius memorial memorial. After ordering someone to give him a seat, he asked Lu Xiangsheng: "How are the training of the officers these days?"

Lu Xiangsheng was surprised and curious at first when he heard Zhu Youxiao mention it, but now he is used to it. When he saw His Majesty ask, he hurriedly replied: "I have made a lot of progress, and I can implement orders, and my habits of playing tricks have been reduced a lot, and my physical fitness has also improved. I didn't expect that His Majesty's training methods are not only novel but also effective."

"You don't have to flatter me." Seeing that Liu Ruyu was also serving on the side, Zhu Youxiao said, "Today is New Year's Eve. Go and call all the officers to my Qianqing Palace. Huo Weihua celebrates New Year's Eve with hundreds of thousands of people. Now I can't be too cold, so I simply celebrate the New Year with these officers and students. The queen ordered the imperial kitchen to cook more dumplings."
