Chapter 1181 The fierce Zhu Pingan
The Holy One actually laughed! ?
Huang Jin couldn't help but get excited. He remembered clearly that it had been one month and eight days since the last time His Majesty smiled, and His Majesty finally smiled again. My God, you finally appeared. I kowtowed more than a thousand times, and my wish finally came true. The Holy Lord finally smiled again.
In the past period of time, there have been natural and man-made disasters, and the Japanese have invaded the north and south, and the Holy Emperor has been worried about this empire. This morning, when I was tying up His Majesty's hair, I found that His Majesty's white hair had grown eight more, which made me feel very distressed.
Today, the elixir refined from the "Eight Gong Dan Prescription" that the Holy One had high hopes for was also useless.
It's difficult for the Holy One...
The unimaginable weight that the Holy One has borne for this empire and the successive blows it has suffered. I see it in my eyes and feel pain in my heart. I only hate that I am incompetent and useless. I cannot replace you. The Holy One shares worries and solves problems.
Thanks to God’s manifestation, the old slave kowtowed more than a thousand times without any fuss. The Lord finally smiled again.
Smile, ten years have passed. This smile from the Holy One can make you look ten years younger. It is more effective than any elixir.
Thank God, I will definitely kowtow a thousand times to fulfill my wish when I go back.
Oh, by the way, I would also like to thank Mr. Xiao Zhu. Mr. Xiao Zhu is such a lucky star. He has brought smiles to His Majesty’s face so many times. I still remember the food-related poem Mr. Xiao Zhu composed last time about which of sweet and sour fish and spicy wings is better served with rice, which also made His Majesty smile. Oh, by the way, some time ago Master Xiao Zhu checked the Taicang bank with his naked buttocks. Afterwards, the Lord once thought about it and couldn't help but laugh. And today, although I don’t know what Mr. Xiao Zhu did to make the Lord smile with satisfaction, the Lord smiled, and that was enough. From now on, if Mr. Xiao Zhu encounters any difficulties or troubles, as long as the Za family can help, they will definitely help Mr. Xiao Zhu.
While Huang Jin was full of surprises, the little eunuch at the gate of Yongshou Palace also vaguely heard Emperor Jiajing's laughter. He still thought that His Majesty was laughed out of anger! How big of a fire must it be to be so angry! I couldn't help but feel happy again, and I thanked the gods, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas one after another in my heart.
"Unexpectedly, Zhu Ping'an gave me an unexpected surprise." After reading the performance, Emperor Jiajing felt much better. When he saw the maids and eunuchs kneeling before him, he waved his hands and asked everyone to stand up. .
"Thank you Lord for your kindness." Huang Jin led a group of eunuchs and maids to thank him and stood up.
"Huang Ban, take a look, next month you go to patrol the border, take this battle report with you, and show me how shameful those military generals are, they are not even as good as a small civil servant. "After Huang Jin stood up, Emperor Jiajing threw the memorial to Huang Jin.
Huang Jin took the memorial respectfully with both hands, opened it carefully, and cast his eyes on the memorial.
This is the report of the Japanese invasion of Taizhou submitted by the Taizhou magistrate. Hey... This time the Japanese invasion of Taizhou was really fierce. More than 10,000 Japanese pirates sailed more than 700 ships and plundered Taizhou Prefecture. The troops were divided. Three-pronged attack on Taizhou The government has seven counties under its jurisdiction... No wonder the Holy Emperor was so angry at first. This Japanese invasion in Taizhou Prefecture was the most serious this year. This group of Japanese pirates who deserved to be cut to pieces actually had the audacity to attack seven counties and a prefecture. In the past, Japanese pirates would only attack one or two counties, and some were so arrogant there.
Looking further down, Huang Jin knew what surprise Zhu Pingan brought to Emperor Jiajing.
The Japanese pirates attacked seven counties and one prefecture in Taizhou Prefecture, and no one was spared. Jingnan County, where Mr. Xiao Zhu served as the county magistrate, was not spared.
More than 3,000 Japanese pirates attacked Jingnan County. Mr. Xiao Zhu fought against more than 3,000 Japanese pirates with less than 100 government officials and soldiers. He not only successfully defended Jingnan County, but also captured 820 Japanese pirate heads. Four.
Mr. Xiao Zhu brought more surprises than that. He also recovered the neighboring county that was captured by the Japanese pirates - Taiping County.
This plot is simply more incredible than a romance novel!
After reading the memorial, Huang Jinjue seemed not to remember the specific content of the memorial, but only remembered Master Xiao Zhu’s outstanding record. Well, after thinking about it, Huang Jinfu read the memorial again, and then he saw the clues.
This memorial uses the Spring and Autumn style of writing without leaving any trace, briefly describing the five counties captured by the Japanese pirates, focusing on describing Lord Xiao Zhu’s defense of Jingnan, rushing to aid Taiping, and recovering Taiping... Well, it seems that this Taizhou The prefect Tan Lun was a man with a "heart". Huang Jin saw through Tan Lun's little thoughts at a glance, but he had no intention of exposing them. Firstly, what was stated in Tan Lun's memorial was all true, but it was written in the Spring and Autumn Period, so there must be some emphasis on the narrative; secondly, the Holy Sage smiled, which is more important than anything else.
"Huang Ban, how do you feel after reading it?" Emperor Jiajing asked calmly when he saw that Huang Jin had finished reading the memorial.
"When I returned to the Holy Land, the old slave was shocked. It's true that people can't be judged by their appearance. Mr. Xiao Zhu looked at a kind and honest scholar, but he didn't expect him to be so fierce. With one hundred against three thousand Japanese pirates attacking the city, he not only defended the county seat but also defended the city. He beheaded 824 Japanese pirates and liberated the neighboring counties. Even if I made up a story, I couldn't come up with such a plot. I never expected that Mr. Xiao Zhu was not only a good writer, but also a storyteller. He is so knowledgeable in military strategy." Huang Jin closed the memorial, with an unexpected expression on his face at the right time, and then looked at Emperor Jiajing with admiration, "When the Holy Emperor selected Lord Xiao Zhu as the number one pick, the old slave was a little confused. Now that I think about it, the Holy Lord is really a hero. Ming Shenwu has a unique discernment, and he has long noticed that Mr. Xiao Zhu is extraordinary."
"Haha, you old guy can't keep up with the young people." Emperor Jiajing heard this. He laughed and cursed.
"Hey, when it comes to flattery, of course the old slave can't keep up with the young people. The old slave always tells the truth, and he doesn't know how to flatter." Huang Jin bowed in front of Emperor Jiajing, like a shrimp, Sansan replied with a smile.
"You old guy, you said you were fat and you still breathed." Emperor Jiajing laughed and cursed again.
Huang Jin smiled apologetically.
"Zhu Ping'an, a mere scholar, was trapped in a small county in Jingnan with less than a hundred soldiers. When faced with three thousand Japanese pirates attacking the city, he not only successfully defended the city, but also achieved such a record. If he were a general, everyone could be like Zhu Ping'an. "Why should I worry about the unrest at the border?" Emperor Jiajing couldn't help but sigh when he thought of the recent bad war situation at the border and compared it with Zhu Ping'an.
“This time when I go to Datong to patrol the border, I will definitely take this incident to shame the faces of those arrogant soldiers. Each of them claims to be from a family of generals, familiar with the art of war, and skilled in bow and horse. , The result is not even as good as a scholar," Huang Jin continued.
"Give me a good shame on their faces. All they want to do is ask me for food and pay for their troops. I spend millions of taels of silver every year, but hundreds of thousands of troops and horses are all gone." If we fail to defend our borders well, we will lose troops, lose cities and territory, and suffer frequent defeats, and our borders will become the back gardens of the barbarians!" When Emperor Jiajing mentioned the borders, he couldn't help but hate that iron is not as good as steel.
"Old slave obeys the order." Huang Jin responded repeatedly. (End of this chapter)
