The arrival of the Empress marked the final integrity of the new regime, and everything was settled.
Many changes have taken place in Jinling City.
Concubine Xu was officially sealed by the Golden Book, named the queen, and issued an edict to the world.
One family, one queen, two princesses, two princesses, Zhongshan Wangfu rose again and became the first meritorious family of the Ming Dynasty again.
But the current Xu family is only the first family in the symbolic sense, and in terms of status and prestige, no one can match, but in the court, there is no strong influence at the beginning.
This is not only because the current emperor is a very strong emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang is also a strong emperor, but that does not affect the formation of many courtier factions.
The only reason is that the Xu family lacks a strong leader.
Xu Huizu, whether it is the ability to govern the army or the means of the court, is a veteran who has been polished for many years, he is the heir of the Xu family, he was trained by General Xu Da since childhood, and he is the leader of the Xu family, but he has now been ordered to think behind closed doors and do nothing.
Xu Zengshou may be a candidate who can barely be his successor, with Xu Zengshou's prestige and qualifications, he can be convinced by the Xu forces and used for him, but he has died young.
Xu Yingxu's ability in all aspects is very average, and he has always been a local official, so he does not have this prestige.
And Xu Jingchang is still young, although the eldest uncle is gone, the person is still alive, and the second uncle is also there, as the younger generation of the Xu family, he still has a long way to go.
In terms of military generals, because the Xu family of Zhongshan King and the Li family of Cao Guogong have faded out of the military circles one after another, and Qiu Fu, Zhu Neng and other Jingnan military ministers have just taken the throne, the generals also need a process of testing, contact, understanding, and running-in for them, and it will take a long time to form a new faction, and the formation of factions in the army is much more complicated than that of the DPRK.
She knows that although her husband has sat on the throne, he has not been able to do it to this huge empire, the emperor is high, and his decrees and decisions need to be implemented by the ministers of civil and military affairs, and the wives of the decrees have a very great influence on these ministers of civil and military affairs.
Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Gaochu and Zhu Gaosui now have to participate in various banquets, the old ministers of the Beiping Department are to express friendship to the princes they are familiar with, and the old ministers of Jianwen are to express their loyalty to the Yongle Emperor with this kind of respect.
The three princes sometimes have to go to the banquet together, sometimes they have to go to the banquet separately, due to the surname and physical reasons, the eldest son of the emperor Zhu Gaochi, who is not very familiar to everyone, does not have many opportunities to show up.
However, although he did not show up much, the emperor's eldest son, Zhu Gaochi, still left a deep impression on everyone.
A young man in his twenties, who is obsessed to that extent, and whether it is his father or his brother, they are all burly and brave people, such an outlier is indeed unforgettable.
However, although he is too fat, but by no means a stupid person, in the limited number of banquets, Zhu Gaochi's demeanor and conversation, left a deep impression on the officials of the Jinling Department, this is a gentle and elegant prince, or a prince with a generous surname, won the great favor of the ministers, some people have praised Zhu Gaochi, saying that he is the same as the original Yiwen prince Zhu Biao, the surname temperament, character and morality are very similar.
However, due to physical reasons, Zhu Gaochi did not show his head much, so that the second son of the emperor, Zhu Gaochu, was extremely active.
Maybe he wants to share the responsibility for the eldest brother, after all, Zhu Di ascended the throne as the emperor, in order to reduce the resistance to governance, the stubborn Jianwen loyal ministers carried out a bloody purge, after the queen mother arrived in Beijing in order to save her husband's image, is trying to create a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere, frequent banquets for the wife, as a prince, to attend more banquets, obviously can also play the same role.
Today, it is rare for the three princes to appear together again, because the person who invited the guests today is Yang Xu, the Duke of Fuguo.
There may be many people who don't know why the originally unknown Yang Xu ranked sixth on the list of heroes of Jingnan, but the three princes are insiders, and they know very well how much Yang Xu has contributed to his father's country, and they themselves have relied on Yang Xu's help at least twice to save their lives.
Therefore, as soon as the invitation of the Auxiliary Duke arrived, they immediately pushed down all the banquets that had conflicts and attended on time.
There are too many people invited to the banquet today, and the guests are three princes, so Xia Xun did not hold a family banquet, but chartered the entire Juxian Building, where the imperial relatives, meritorious heroes, and Chinese martial arts gathered here, and several of them were captains of the horses, including Mei Yin.
Mei Yin and Xia Xun just made a tentative fight with their surnames and then died down, outsiders are not aware of the struggle between them at all, even if they are aware, even if the two have fought to the death in private, everyone knows that this kind of banquet with a surname will still invite each other, or talk about Xiao Yan Yan, like friends for many years, this is officialdom, a completely different battlefield.
However, there are still people who do not adapt to the rules of officialdom.
Qiu Fu and Zhu Neng have returned to Beijing, and they also received an invitation from Xia Xun, Zhu Neng came, Xu Jingchang came, and Qiu Fu did not come.
There are a total of three princes in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, Xu Jingchang is undoubtedly on Xia Xun's side, don't look at him as a person from the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, but in front of Zhu Neng and Qiu Fu, two veterans of the Beiping Department who have fought a hundred battles, he, a young boy, is completely unqualified to sit on an equal footing with them.
And Xu Jingchang is cool Xiao is his father, emotion is more important than reason, he doesn't care, he is too lazy to talk about the old qualifications of the two Benya, he can talk to Xia Xun, and Xia Xun once risked his life to save his father, although it was unsuccessful, he has to accept this love.
Just by virtue of this, he is much closer to Xia Xun.
Besides, through his little aunt, he also knew how many times Xia Xun had saved his life for the emperor's family, and the trust of the emperor by this character was no less than that of Qiu Fu and Zhu Nengwei, he couldn't do it, let alone smash it on himself.
And Zhu Neng went to the banquet, not for Xia Xun's face, after Zhu Neng returned to Beijing, he already knew that Xia Xun whipped the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies to death Zheng Xiaobu and belittled Xie Guangsheng.
Although the ins and outs of the matter are understood, Xia Xun leaves no room for any means, which makes him very uncomfortable.
However, it is said that the three princes who are attending the banquet today, and he and Zhang Yu were the left and right guards of the Yan Palace.
The three princes went to the banquet, and he couldn't help but come.
This is also Zhu Neng's way of being old and serious, even if there is a contradiction with Xia Xun, there is no need for him to be so obvious, officialdom is not a battlefield after all, to eliminate a person, there is no need to be tense, not to mention, his displeasure only made him disgusted with Xia Xun, but he would not regard Xia Xun as an opponent because of this.
Qiu Fu, on the other hand, obviously belongs to the temper of the surname Ru Agni, and he does not rub sand in his eyes at all.
Whether Zheng Xiaobu dies or not is none of his business, whether Xie Guangsheng goes to Lanzhou to eat and drink dew is not his business, when he went to the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies and hurriedly ordered a mao, he went to the local place to receive and reorganize the army, and now he can't remember what the surname Xie and the surname Zheng look like.
But since he has become the head of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, whoever moves him will not give him face, will not give him face, and he will not bother to save face for the other party, compared to Zhu Neng's old age, Qiu Fu chose to fight-for-tat, he just wants to tell Yang Xu clearly: You have offended me It's a pity that Yang Xu invited too many people today, not to mention that there is one less Qiu Fu, even if there are ten Qiu Fu missing, no one will notice him, not to mention, the focus of today's call is the three princes.
In the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, Qiu Fu was convening several governors of the government to discuss the matter.
Governor Chen Xuan also received Xia Xun's invitation, but unfortunately before he went out, he was intercepted by the people sent by Qiu Fu, and he had no choice but to send a family member to explain the situation to Xia Xun, and then rushed back with the captain of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies to participate in the discussion.
He was specially brought here today because Chen Xuan was the governor of the navy, and he had personally gone to the coast to defend against the Japanese invaders, and Qiu Fu summoned people to discuss the matter this time in order to deal with the Japanese invaders.
Qiu Fu will be sixty years old soon, more than twenty years older than Zhu Neng, and of course Xia Xun's hairy boy is even more unlikely to be in his eyes, which is why he especially can't forgive Xia Xun for offending: it's too disrespectful to the old man.
He didn't pay attention to Xia Xun's banquet, but what the emperor said, he always remembered in his heart.
After he and Zhu Neng returned to Beijing, the emperor summoned them separately and specifically mentioned the idea of building a naval division and fighting against the Japanese invaders.

Today, he brought Chen Xuan, the governor who knew the situation of the sailors and the Japanese invaders, to plan a counterattack against the Japanese invaders.
Qiu Fu sat on the throne and said to Chen Xuan: "The emperor came forward to summon him, and he mentioned the rampant coastal pirates.
Little Dongying, the land of projectiles, a few rogues, how can it be so difficult to deal with Huh, I think it is all Jianwen Dynasty, and the trouble caused by the heavy literature and suppression of martial arts You tell the governor of Pontus about the situation you know, I plan to attack the Japanese invaders of my sea frontier, to deal with the troubles, and to solve the worries of the saints. ” Chen Xuan said: "Dadu Governor, the force of the Japanese is far inferior to my Daming Sailor, but it is very difficult for us to deal with them, it is not easy to annihilate, and it is not easy to defend." ” "How do you say this?"
"Governor Dadu, when the previous Auxiliary State Gong was ordered to recruit the Shuangyu pirates, the lower official also mentioned this matter to the Auxiliary State Prince, and the Auxiliary State Duke also deeply thought of the difficulties mentioned by the lower official.
I'm a coastal guard" Qiu Fu pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "Yang Xu, hmph, Yang Xu doesn't know how to be a hairy boy at all, he knows what the old man has been fighting all his life, he has been in a hundred battles, whether it is the Northern Yuan elite cavalry or the imperial army that is several times his own, the old man has been defeated, and a few Dongying barbarians, what is it?"
As soon as Sun Xuan saw that he was so arrogant, he hurriedly reminded: "Dadu Governor, this naval battle and land war are two different things, when the Yuan people entered the Central Plains, it was the peak of martial arts, and the iron cavalry swept the world and was invincible.
Halfway through his words, he saw Qiu Fu's cold gaze, and couldn't help but swallow back the second half of his words.
Qiu Fu said lightly: "If you want to grow others' ambition and destroy your own prestige, don't say it."
It is true that the government has never fought a water war, and the Japanese have indeed never dealt with it.
However, in a war, isn't that what it is, what is the difference between water and land warfare, you can just talk about the coastal situation."
Chen Xuan said: "Yes, according to the understanding of the lower officials, most of these Japanese robbers are the defeated soldiers of the civil war, the frustrated samurai, the bankrupt merchants, and the peasants who have lost their land, and they have no livelihood, so they gang up to invade our borders.
Xia Guan said that they were not the frontal enemies of our sailors, because their ships were very bad, and their largest ships could only accommodate 300 people, the smaller ones were more than 100 people, and the smaller ones were only a few dozen people.
Most of the ships are made of large wooden saws into square connections, and the joints do not use iron nails, only iron sheets, and do not use hemp tendons and tung oil to fill the joints, but use grass to plug the leaks, which is labor-intensive and not very strong, and if the warships of our sailors catch up, as long as they collide, they will fall apart.
Moreover, their sails and rudders are very rudimentary, and they can only sail with the wind, not the wind, and when there is a strong wind or no wind, they can only lower the sails and make the oars, so most of the Japanese invaders use the spring and autumn floods to invade our coast."
Qiu Fu said impatiently: "Ships are used to carry people, needless to say, what weapons do they have, how to fight, you can tell me" Chen Xuan's heart was half cold when he heard this, Governor Qiu Dadu is completely a layman in water warfare, the most important thing is the ship, the ship of the Japanese has not yet understood the details, and his own warship has not yet understood it at all, so he will study what weapons the other party uses, and what tactics can be used But the Metropolitan Governor asked, Chen Xuan was helpless, so he had to change the topic, and said: "The Japanese bow is hard and sharp, close to people, his surname is fierce, and his martial arts are also very good, compared to my coastal officers and soldiers, it is better than that."
Some of them only had bayonet hooks, but the better samurai used three swords. ” "Three knives" "Yes, a long knife, which is very fierce to chop and chop, and a small knife for miscellaneous use, in addition to a sharp blade, divided into two kinds, the one about a foot long is called the untie knife, and the one more than a foot long is called the sharp drawing knife, which is specially designed for hand-to-hand combat."
Qiu Fu frowned and said: "The ships will scatter as soon as they touch, and the weapons are not very distinctive, how can they be allowed to plague so far" Chen Xuan said indiscriminately: "Because, their boat can't escape, and the sea is vast, and it is difficult to catch up."
They usually go ashore to fight, taking the eastern coast of Zhejiang as an example, among the many sea guards, only Taicang and Guanhai have all the ships, and the other guards are all sergeants of the land war, so they can only defend on the shore.
But the coast is long, and there is no defense, and once they land, it will be a close combat.
The Japanese people often take thirty or fifty people as a group, and each group is one or two miles apart, and they run through the fish, forming a long snake formation that stretches for dozens of miles, not attacking big cities and big fus, but picking villages and towns and small counties without city walls to plunder, which is not easy to surround and annihilate, even if our forces are superior, it is impossible to quickly concentrate on the place where they land, and once they land on the shore and enter the villages and towns, the kind of places of street fighting, it is difficult for us to give full play to our advantages.
Occasionally, there is a large army of ours nearby, which poses a real threat to them, and they can also coerce the local people, using the old and weak women and children as meat shields, so that we can be caught in a dilemma, so that we can fight our way out of the siege, and then play hide and seek again.
Moreover, they have some internal annihilation eyeline in the local area, and they can lead the way for them, so their familiarity with the terrain of the countryside is even greater than that of our officers and men of the garrison who use the joint efforts of the coastal provinces to make unified arrangements and operational planning, fortify everywhere on land, mobilize troops to encircle and suppress, and at the same time build more large ships to encircle and intercept them at sea, and do not allow them to stay in a place where they can stop.
However, the lower officials thought that it was still difficult to touch their roots with such hard work."
Chen Xuan smiled bitterly: "Xia Guan thinks that at sea, it is impossible to destroy them, and now they can't, and in the future, they can build more sea ships and sail thousands of miles, but they can't either."
And on the land, it is impossible for us to garrison troops everywhere along the coast, the coastal terrain is complicated, the villages are simple, and we can't build forts and villages to accommodate the people like some places in the northwest, and come to a strong wall to clear the wilderness, and they will come out with a hundred people, even if only one of them returns alive with the plundered property, they can attract another thousand people to join the ranks of the pirates, like weeds, and they can't be killed."
Qiu Fu sneered: "Come one to kill one, come two to kill one, how many people can they have" Qiu Fu joined the army since he was a child, and he was a martial artist who did not study, but Chen Xuan was a Confucian general, and when he heard this, he did not feel angry, so he replied lightly: "Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty made three expeditions to Goryeo, so that the country was destroyed, not because of the defeat at the hands of Goryeo, but because the war was protracted, the people's cultivation was lost, and the army was raised year after year, and the conscription was endless, so that the eighteenth anti-king destroyed the Great Sui."
Governor of the capital, Chen Xuan is a warrior, not afraid of war, the Japanese are poor and called a son, not afraid of tossing, but we are tens of thousands of people in the Ming Dynasty, and we can't afford toss" Qiu Fu said angrily: "According to your words, we have no way to deal with them."
Chen Xuan was silent for a moment and said: "The last time the Fuguo Gong recruited the pirates of An Shuangyu, he discussed with the lower officials about the East China Sea pirates."
He glanced at Qiu Fu and saw that Qiu Fu did not object, so he said: "The Auxiliary State Gong thinks that if you want to completely annihilate them, you must build a powerful fleet, deter them by force, and use them to seek trade with our Celestial Empire.
In this way, even if there is a remnant, it will not become a great disaster.
However, Fu Guogong also said that it is better to block than to sparse, even if this means can only eliminate the temporary trouble, and over time, the Japanese will inevitably rise again, and the cause of profit will come.
Not to mention, there are fierce thieves in the South China Sea now, and the armed ships are even more powerful than our sailors, they are not Japanese people, but our Chinese remnants, but they are also the party to the disaster, invading our coastal residents, burning, killing and looting, and doing all kinds of evil.
Fu Guogong said that the combination of grace and power only forced all parties to cooperate, leaving the pirates cornered.
If we can open up the sea and trade and benefit the people, and be a pirate and always face the risk of destruction, then between a million profits and no profits, most pirates are still willing to put down their swords and guns and be obedient to the people, so that it is also beneficial to the country and the people. ” Qiu Fu saw that he was Yang Xu every time, as if he admired Yang Xu very much, and he was secretly angry in his heart.
Xu Jingchang's little bastard doesn't need to be mentioned, he only knows that he followed Yang Xu and shouted, losing the face of his grandfather and father; Zhu Neng's old slippery head, everyone rode on his head to and pee, and he actually had to give him face and rush to the banquet.
Now this Chen Xuan, I can't figure out whether he is from the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies or Yang Xu.
Qiu Fu couldn't help but ask angrily: "Chen Dudu, are you a martial artist, or a civil servant, Yang Xu has never led a day of soldiers, he knows how to soldier, he knows military affairs, these ideas are just the rhetoric of literati."
If every time the enemy commits a border, there are such means to deal with it, then what else do we need our generals to do?"
Qiu Fu is just a simple warrior, he only thinks about how to achieve victory, but does not think about what the war serves, so it is difficult to focus on solutions other than war.
After reprimanding Chen Xuan, Qiu Fu said categorically: "The bandits on Shuangyu Island have not been recruited by the imperial court to eat the imperial court, and they have to do things for the imperial court."
We are in the East China Sea, and now we have three guards, with the ability to go to sea to fight, the three guards form horns with each other, and they can attack and retreat and defend, with those tattered warships that the Japanese have, and almost no long-range weapons, once they encounter at sea, they are still worried that they cannot be annihilated, as for the land, the governor will also make proper arrangements, unless they do not come, otherwise, I will call them to have no return."
Qiu Fu slammed the handsome case, looked at Chen Xuan and said: "You say, the Japanese often take advantage of the spring and autumn floods to invade our coast, and in winter, they won't come."
Chen Xuan said: "Otherwise, in winter, the Japanese also have the strength to fight, but compared with the spring and autumn seasons, the Japanese are much less."
However, in winter, it is not the ordinary rabble that can still come to our coast to disturb us, their ships are relatively sophisticated, and the force of the bandits is relatively good, so although the number of people is less than in spring and autumn, it is not easy to deal with. ” Qiu Fu smiled coldly, raised his gray eyebrows, and said, "Good old man, let's try the knife with them first."
Ming'er sat on the brocade pier, her elbows propped up on the table, her hands held her cheeks, her eyes were half-open and half-closed.

If you see the light in her eyes at this time, you will understand what it means to be like silk.
The queen is in the palace to entertain the second grade and above and the princesses and princesses living in the Ten Princes' Mansion, because they are all daughters' families, there are more varieties of this wine, most of them are fruit wines, such as wine, pear wine, jujube wine, coconut milk wine and even Wujiapi wine, peach wine, persimmon wine and so on.
Ming'er didn't know how to drink, but when she saw that others were drinking happily, and that the fine grape wine from Hara Fire was mellow and bright, and the color was attractive, she couldn't stand the instigation of those ladies and daughters, so she drank a cup, and the result was drunk.
Gently stroking his cheeks, his cheeks were feverish, and his head was dizzy.
The queen couldn't help but laugh when she saw her sister's cute appearance, and was busy listening to someone help her to rest in her palace, Ming'er was quite drunk, somehow, she didn't want to sleep when she got here, she held her chin, confused for a while, and couldn't help but think of her plans, this is a good opportunity, my sister will come back in a while, I want her to help Thinking about it like this, her body suddenly became hotter, "Little girl, I miss a man, I don't know how to be ashamed" Ming'er bit her lip, and two intoxicating red glows floated on her cheeks, which seemed to be even hotter To be continued:
