In the palace of Emperors by the riverside of the North City River in Yangzhou, Zhu Zhanji returned to Concubine Sun's residence after handling the business for a day.
Before dinner, he used to walking with beauty. When he walked outside a room, he happened to hear two slaves talking inside.
The two palace maids may not know that the emperor was outside and still said this.
One of them said: Be careful, and you will break it after a while. You won’t be beaten to death!
Another muttered: This peach was everywhere in the countryside and ripe, and it was not worth a penny. It was called something when it arrived in the palace. By the way, it was called "Yu Ke". Suddenly, it became expensive. Oh...
Concubine Sun next to Zhu Zhanji heard the words inside, and smiled slightly with her lips, and then she became thoughtful. She said to Zhu Zhanji: Emperor, guess who is the most beautiful woman in Yongcheng County?
Zhu Zhanji obviously had no intention and said casually, "Of course it's you, otherwise how could the emperor's grandmother recommend you to the palace alone?"
He also knew that Sun was enlightening himself to relax from business.
However, it is difficult for a person to get rid of the influence of serious business. Zhu Zhanji used to like cricket fighting, but now he has not played for a long time. He also wanted to take a break from his queen, Hu, because he liked Sun very much, and he put it aside for the time being. Because of his mood, the war situation has made him lose attention to those things.
Just a few days ago, Zhu Zhanji had just received news that Xuanda's elite troops arrived in the Huaihe River Basin. He used this nine-sided army because the Beijing camp in the east was empty after it was drawn. The situation was already very stretched.
At this time, Concubine Sun said again: The emperor guessed wrongly.The most beautiful woman in Yongcheng County is a young wife selling tofu. People call her "Tofu Xishi". If the emperor really sees her one day, she might think she looks better than me.
Zhu Zhanji shook his head when he heard this: How can a tofu Xishi be compared with a concubine?
Can't be compared? Maybe it's just because I'm in the palace.
Concubine Sun looked like she was thinking about everything... Yang Shiqi made the emperor unhappy, but if he was not the chief minister of the court and the prince's minor security guard, would he still be some important person?
After hearing this, Zhu Zhanji pondered for a moment and laughed: What the imperial concubine said was extremely true.
Seeing this, Concubine Sun said in a sweet voice: As long as the emperor is happy, everything will turn into a good thing.
At this moment, a eunuch suddenly rushed over to report, first asking for the crime, and then saying that it was an important urgent report.When Zhu Zhanji saw that it was indeed a military report that the new General Xuan Da seized Caishiji.
General Na Fang was ordered to lead his army from Xuzhou to advance to Huaixi. After inspecting Caishiji, he felt that there was an opportunity, so he transferred a small number of elite troops to cross the river to fight. He wanted to knock on the mountain and shake the tiger and improve his prestige. Unexpectedly, the Han Wang army was vulnerable, and the vanguard army jumped from the ship to the south bank, and no one could stop it. He quickly defeated the Jiang defense army. There were heavy troops of the Han King around him, but no one took the initiative to attack and recover Caishiji.
After seeing the urgent report, Zhu Zhanji immediately ordered the eunuch to summon Yang Shiqi and others to the palace to discuss matters overnight, and then turned around and said to Concubine Sun: If the beloved concubine is right, it will be a good thing if it is really bad!
This incident seemed like a complete accident.
Not only did the court not expect to suddenly capture a crucial important place, but no one issued an order to attack this place. However, General Xuanda's tentative attack in order to establish his authority in the local area had unexpected results.
But this matter seems to be expected.
When Yang Rong rushed into the palace to meet the saint, he suddenly remembered what Yang Shiqi said before when the court changed its strategy to the west. Yang Shiqi said: The King of Han was in a state of power. When Jiangbei looked around, his civil and military officials were under pressure to protect themselves and could still rely on the long-term governance. Once the Jianghuai region withdraws its troops westward, the threat of Nanjing will be reduced sharply, and the internal defeat will be faster than guessed.
Today seems to meet Yang Shiqi's foresight.
It is obvious that this battle in Caishiji cannot be said to be because General Fang uses troops like a god. Since ancient times, this place has been a major area related to the defense of the river. If it is not for the opponent's mistake, it is difficult to attack you with troops like a god. Before this, the British Duke Zhang Fu led the elite troops of the Beijing camp to attack Caishiji many times, which is proof of this.
After Yang Shiqi paid homage to the emperor, he said without hesitation in front of other ministers: The Battle of Caishiji not only found a breakthrough in Nanzhili, but also made us see that the strength of the Han Wangjun had declined sharply in just one year.I believe that changing strategies in time and taking advantage of the situation to pacify Nanjing should be the priority at this time.
Things seemed a bit hasty, but in Yang Rong's opinion, seizing Caishiji was equivalent to stepping into Nanjing with one foot. Such things were clear at a glance without any careful consideration.
……
Zhang Ning from Wuchang City has been busy accompanying Yao Ji to the temple to burn incense these days.
It was the Buddhist festival that day, and Chongning Wanshoushan Temple is a famous temple far and wide. People all say that the Bodhisattvas here are very powerful, so they are even more crowded.
However, King Xiang accompanied Mrs. Yao to worship Buddha and burn incense publicly, not saying that he was concerned about identity and pomp. For safety reasons, the government also cleaned up the temple in advance, and idle people were not allowed to enter...
So the people who came to burn incense could only be blocked outside. Fortunately, I heard that the powerful people would leave once, and the temple would be open at the latest at afternoon.
Zhang Ning brought a large amount of money to the Wanshou Shan Temple in Chongning. As a way to accumulate virtue and do good deeds, he remembered the merits for Yao Ji in the temple.
As I said when talking to the monks, the monk said that the Buddha does not need money, but the monk is still an ordinary person, so he needs money to bear food, clothing, housing, transportation and temple construction. Only with a temple and having a full meal can I promote my Dharma to the Buddha.
Of course, there is a more direct way of communication between people and gods than this, which is transactions.Zhou Erniang interacted with God in this way.
After she worshipped Manjushri Bodhisattva, she went to worship Guanyin Bodhisattva and completed a transaction according to the monks' reminder.
Zhang Ning accompanied her to incense, and a monk came up to celebrate with tribute and said: Everything is empty, and money is also a cloud of romance.
Then he showed them a clear way.
The monk took out a piece of red paper, put it on paper, ink, pen and inkstone, and said that the donor had any wishes to write them down and put them here in the Bodhisattva, and promised a reward; if the Bodhisattva blessed him and got what he wished, he could return to the temple to fulfill his wish...
That is, pay the money promised in advance.
You are not afraid of your love and my wishes, of course you can not come to fulfill your wishes, as long as you are not afraid of retribution; since you are not afraid of gods, what wishes will come to the Buddha?
Zhou Erniang came to worship the statue devoutly, recited a few words silently, and then wrote a number on the paper. She wrote one first, and after hesitating for a moment, she wrote a thousand words.
Zhang Ning glanced inadvertently, feeling that Zhou Ernie was still very busy at spending money.Fortunately, I didn’t write 10,000 taels.
She made a promise in front of Guanyin, obviously she was asking for a child.I'm afraid that not only the couple were present to understand, but even the monks next to them could guess that more than one person should beg for such a thing.
...But the Buddha could not make everything go well. After they returned from the temple, the Eunuchs' Province received a secret report from Nanzhili.
Before dinner, he used to walking with beauty. When he walked outside a room, he happened to hear two slaves talking inside.
