Chapter 218: Take advantage of the void


After the death of a generation of heroes, the three tribes of Warat, Tatar, and Uliangha fell into endless mutual attacks, and Ji Ling and Guo Deng naturally would not let go of this great opportunity.

In line with the principle of "the snipe and the clam fight, and the fisherman profits", Ji Ling and Guo Deng have been quietly observing the chaotic battle situation on the Mobei grassland, and when they are almost fighting, Ji Ling and Guo Deng immediately went to the court to request that the troops be sent to Mobei to deal a fatal blow to the scarred Mongolian tribes.

Under the joint attack of Ji Ling and Guo Deng, the various Mongol tribes completely lost their resistance and were completely reduced to a plate of scattered sand, and this once invincible horse nation was finally unable to stand up again.

On this basis, Ji Ling asked Emperor Zhu Qiyu to strengthen his control over the Mongolian steppe, and Zhu Qiyu, who trusted Ji Ling, gave Ji Ling a certain right to act cheaply.

So Ji Ling imitated some of the experience and measures of later generations, coupled with Zhu Qiyu's policy support, and finally made these tribes in Mobei completely lose their ability to resist and completely became part of the people of the Ming Dynasty.

At this point, Ji Ling's prestige has risen to a new height, and he has also relied on his own efforts to be crowned the Duke of Zhongguo by Zhu Qiyu, and added him as the crown prince and prince, and for a time he was in the limelight among the military generals in the court.

Some imperial historians wanted to take the opportunity to impeach Ji Ling for abusing power in the army and being too powerful, but Zhu Qiyu trusted him, and Yu Qian and other ministers also relied on him a lot, and even Xing'an, Cheng Jing and other internal servants had a good personal relationship with Ji Ling, so there was really no one who could touch Ji Ling.

However, Ji Ling is not a flamboyant person, and he also knows how to advance and retreat on weekdays, so he also offered Zhu Qiyu to hand over part of the power in his hand to others, but Zhu Qiyu's attitude was quite happy, "I don't need others, I just believe you!"

” The emperor said so, and others naturally had no way to put their beaks, but Ji Ling would still return to the capital from time to time and take the initiative to report to Zhu Qiyu, so as to calm Zhu Qiyu's mind.

In the past six months, Zhu Qiyu's health has also improved, but his heart is anxious: he needs a biological son to inherit his throne.

Therefore, when Wang Meilin was beaten into the cold palace and the Hang family had nowhere to go, Zhu Qiyu ordered people to choose beauty outside the palace to enrich the harem.

Ji Ling knew that Zhu Qiyu was not in a hurry to be beautiful, so he speculated that he wanted to have a son and wanted to go crazy, but the matter of giving birth to a son was ......

You can't just count on more women!

And it's easy to ruin your own body......

But Ji Ling couldn't say this kind of thing to Zhu Qiyu, and he could only watch his cheeks gradually lose weight when he was summoned by Zhu Qiyu: it can be seen that the concubines he newly admitted to the palace were really beautiful......

For example, the Tang Guifei who was serving in front of Zhu Qiyu at this time looked so exquisite, and she was the same age as a seventeen or eighteen-year-old flower, how could Zhu Qiyu bear not to work her?

However, Ji Ling also understands the truth of "don't look at indecent things", after all, she is the emperor's woman, and she had better not look at it more, not to mention that Li Li'er and Min Min are more beautiful than this Tang Guifei.

"Now that the northern border trouble has been completely solved, this is all your credit!"

Zhu Qiyu glanced up at Ji Ling, and at the same time waved his hand at Tang Guifei, signaling her to retreat first, "So don't always think that if you are young, you can't afford the title of a duke, in my opinion, only you Ji Ling in the Manchu Dynasty have this qualification!"

” "Your Majesty has won the award, and I will do my best."

"By the way, I have carefully considered the idea of setting up a military guard and a post station in Liaodong last time......

Well......

Do you really feel the need for this?

The Mongols don't pose any threat to us now. ” "Your Majesty, disasters are hidden invisible, and the minister's move is to prevent them from happening, after all, the border people there are often in chaos, and it is extremely troublesome to govern."

Ji Ling couldn't tell Zhu Qiyu that two hundred years later, the Ming Dynasty would die at the hands of those Tartars, but he would never forget that there was an ethnic group called the Jurchens.

"Okay, just according to your performance, anyway, there is no shortage of silver in the household department now."

Zhu Qiyu nodded, as if he had no doubt that Ji Ling would have any bad intentions, "As for your request to establish a border army in Liaodong, I think it's better to slow it down, or send another person over, otherwise there will be a lot of discussion in the court." ” "The minister understands that the reason why the minister has this proposal is just that Liaodong is prolific with horses, and it may have a miraculous effect to use the Liao people to defend the Liao land and establish a strong cavalry in the local area."

"Well, I'll take it seriously......

By the way, Wang Ao of the Ministry of Officials once served in Liaodong, so you can communicate with him more in private. ” In fact, there is no need for Zhu Qiyu to remind Ji Ling to go to Wang Ao for advice, because this old man has been in Liaodong for a long time and has a good set of management of local affairs.

And Wang Ao is a very shrewd person, he always likes to pretend to be a loyal elder on weekdays, even if Zhu Qiyu tells him some chores on weekdays, he will take out a small notebook and write it down, and say that he has a poor memory, afraid of omissions, which is completely different from the previous official Shangshu Wang Zhi, so Zhu Qiyu often praises Wang Ao for being honest and cautious.

But Ji Ling knew in his heart that Wang Ao had a good memory in private, and his skills were very bright, as if he could see through everything, which was very different from the look of not opening his eyes when facing Zhu Qiyu.

However, this is all a personal way of being an official, such as Ningyang Hou Chen Mao, so Ji Ling never breaks it, but will learn more from others.

However, just when Zhu Qiyu and Ji Ling were talking happily, a burst of bright laughter suddenly sounded outside the house, and then Ji Ling saw a beautiful woman in palace clothes appear in front of him, "The concubine has seen Your Majesty, I have seen ......

Loyal to the country. ” Plum......

Li Xi'er?

P.S.

Yes, many readers should also see it here, the author has cut a lot of plots, and many things are passed by, the root cause is very simple, the grades are not good, and no one reads it.

I think this is a responsibility to the readers, because not many people really lack passion to watch, and eunuchs are not my style, so I can only try my best to sort out the important story and present a more complete plot for everyone.

In fact, it is easy to cross the line when writing about these frontier affairs, because the real history is not as beautiful as depicted in the book, and the way that the Qing Dynasty adopted in order to control the Mongolian steppe is called a yin: spreading Lamaism, allowing its venereal diseases to spread, hindering the development of its productive forces, and in the end there are hundreds of thousands of Mongolians left, and they are still a fart?

But these can't be written.

I say this not to make you abandon the book, but to ask you to stick with it until the end of the book, because I won't write many chapters, and more importantly, the story will become more coherent because of this, it will be worth watching, and the ending will be wonderful, believe me.

In addition, I recommend you to take a look at my new urban book "The King of Pop Starts from a Different World", thank you!
