Amid the advice of the ministers, Hou Xuanyan moved his family into the Forbidden City, where he could have entered and exited at will.

The Ganqing Hall was cleaned up and down, and all the tables, chairs and benches were replaced. Even so, the Kunning Palace and Chunhe Hall were the most familiar to him.

Hou Xuanyan is not a negligent person, but it is impossible to make him work like Zhu Yuanzhang.

After handling government affairs in Fengtian Palace for a long time, Hou Xuanyan got up and stretched. It was not that he didn't want to review it anymore, because today's memorials were all commended by the above congratulations. The various stingy flattery made Hou Xuanyan feel a little nauseous.

For so many days, the whole country has not yet woken up from the aftershock of the emperor's father ascending the throne and becoming emperor, and various congratulations and gifts have been sent to the capital.

Hou Xuanyan found a few newspapers among the memorials and started reading them with relish.

Although there are not many small characters in the middle, it condenses a vivid and erotic story, which makes Hou Xuan unable to stop reading and wishes to go to the harem to experiment immediately.

Just as he was immersed in the ocean of reading and grinning, a sudden sound came from: "Your Majesty, I have the foundation to report."

Hou Xuanyan immediately put down the mansion newspaper, looked up and saw that Zhang Huangyan, who was dealing with government affairs with him in the hall, coughed lightly and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Your Majesty, I have carefully read the memorials from Hou Xia Wanchun, Xiangxi, Jingbei and Xiangxi, and found that the Rakshasa Kingdom should not be underestimated. The Junggar Khanate is also a potential enemy with great strength. Although Jingbei is isolated outside the Great Wall, it is still insufficient. It is better to send troops early to completely pacify the northern part of the desert, so that the Rakshasa Kingdom dare not dare to go south again."

Hou Xuanyan's eyes gradually returned to normal, and he was silent for a moment, and said, "Mobei has always been a place for four battles. After you finished singing and I came on stage, Hu Yi, who was riding the iron grassland and flowing water. Now that we have established Jingbei Province, we must regard Mobei as our own territory. The people of Mobei, regardless of Hu and Han, are all people of our Ming Dynasty. Pacifying the grassland and expeditioning the northern Rakshasa is a national policy I have set long ago. What you said makes sense, but what army can be sent to the sect?"

Zhang Huangyan's expression was excited and said bluntly: "The emperor is willing to lead the troops from Zhejiang and Huguang to Mobei to join the war."

Hou Xuanyan shook his head and said, "No, it's better for me to go in person than you. As a Grand Secretary, you are here to manage the country with me. Besides, the Zhejiang soldiers and Hunan soldiers have been fighting for many years. Although they are elite soldiers, they are also tired. When I fought in Shanhaiguan bloodi, I promised them to let them repair their hometown for a year. Yang Zhan, Duke of Shu, was still in Jinling at this time. I thought it was a good idea for Sichuan soldiers to leave Shu."

Zhang Huangyan's expression turned dark and threw the pot. He said angrily: "What Your Majesty says is reasonable, I have no objection..."

Zhang Huangyan had reason to be angry. When the fierce battle between Jingxiang, Hou Xuanyan told him personally that he would definitely let him lead the troops to fight if he had the chance in the future. By now, Zhang Huangyan had not led his troops alone.

The only time was when he was just starting out, he met Hong Chengchou, who was at the end of his journey and was educated well.

Hou Xuanyan snorted coldly and left. You don’t want to stay in Jinling, I don’t want to. I can’t get it out, so I’ll stay here obediently.

A group of eunuchs and palace maids surrounded Hou Xuanyan and were so annoyed that they walked to Nuanfang Pavilion and sent them all away, just wanting to be alone and quiet.

The palace is like a besieged city. Hou Xuanyan now knows Zhu Linhao's mood very well. He is a girl of three or four years old. She has been in such an environment for so long. No wonder the little girl in the palace is as excited as a monkey when she says it.

"Come on! Come and take a casual outfit."

The little eunuch was worried and asked, "Your Majesty, where are you going?"

"Where the Duke of Shu lives, go wherever he lives, I have a state affairs to discuss."

Yang Zhan was in Jinling and experienced what it means to be happy and not to miss Shu. The scenery and human feelings of Jinling City are all excellent. He admires maple leaves in Qixia Mountain, goes to the Qinhuai River to listen to small songs, and has many restaurants in Changganli, and has many beautiful sights in Wuyi Lane.

Yang Zhangang from Letaotao took his wife to visit the No. 1 scenic spot in Jinling, Mochou Lake. Before he could sit down, he heard the news that the emperor was coming.

Yang Zhan, shocked, quickly changed his clothes and respectfully welcomed Hou Xuanyan into the house he had bought in Jinling. A rank-and-army official like him, who was holding troops outside, came to Jinling at the same time during his abdication, one to show his loyalty and the other to avoid suspicion. Unexpectedly, His Majesty came to him as soon as he was emperor, and Yang Zhan really couldn't think of what to do. After all, if it was ordinary government affairs, he would be proclaimed to the hall, and he would not come in person.

Yang Zhan, who was nervous, hurriedly welcomed the car. Now they are not the superiors and subordinates who traveled to West Lake together. Now there is a difference between the king and the minister, so the necessary etiquette is still indispensable.

"Join my emperor." He came up and bowed with his fists.

Hou Xuanyan hurried forward, helped him up and said, "Flat."

Only then did Yang Zhan realize that His Majesty was actually wearing a brocade white shirt, not a yellow robe.

"I'm very frustrated in the palace, I'll come out to have some breath." Hou Xuanyan saw the confusion in his eyes and took the initiative to answer the questions.

Yang Zhan then felt relieved, his face was full of smiles, and he hurriedly ordered his servants to prepare wine with joy. The servants and family members of the Duke of Shu were also shocked. His Majesty the Emperor actually came in person, and then he was surprised to be happy after receiving the message to prepare the banquet.

This is how it is to be an emperor. As the saying goes, the high places are so cold. As the lord of the nine fives, the old subordinates around him are no longer as warm as before. Gone are the days when I carried a pot of wine and had a meal everywhere.

When the emperor came, the banquet could not be too bad. Soon, exquisite side dishes were served. Hou Xuanyan pulled Yang Zhan to take the seat together, and the king and his ministers drank each other again.

Hou Xuanyan said while eating: "I'm here this time, and I'll arrange a task for you."

Yang Zhan expressed his loyalty and said, "Your Majesty has given you the order, and I am willing to go through fire and water for Your Majesty, and I will never refuse."

"It's not that serious. After you go back, you take the Sichuan soldiers to Mobei. Xia Wanchun and the Rakshasa people were fighting lively. He was afraid that the Junggar people would be ill-behaved. You can watch it, and kill them by the way when they see something is wrong."

When Yang Zhan heard this, he was overjoyed and finally had the opportunity to show his strength again. Their Sichuan soldiers almost fought from Hanzhong to Peiping. If it weren't for Ma Lingyao's words, it would be Xia Wanchun who is now in charge of the army fighting in Mobei, but Yang Zhan.

Now that His Majesty is here in person, he also asks him to lead his troops to attack. This is the supreme trust of the emperor.
