Joke…joke?
What a joke!
This was all Yuan Chonghuan could think of. He racked his brains to find all the words that could be used to curse, but he realized that the 5,000 years of Chinese culture was not enough to accurately describe Chu Feng's shamelessness.
Was he still a f * cking human?
Yuan Chonghuan finally couldn't sit still any longer. He stood up from his chair and pointed at Chu Feng with a furious expression. His fingers were trembling.
He was organizing his words. His lips trembled a few times before he said,"Chu Feng, don't be too shameless!"
"Sigh, why is Overseer so angry?”
Chu Feng started to act like a good person, as if he was resigned to his fate."Come, come, overseer, grand general, please sit down, please sit down…"
"Empress Yi 'an is the symbol of the Ming Empire. Now that she has condescended to marry you, it is because His Majesty values you greatly and is also thinking for the empire.”
How could Yuan Chonghuan remain calm? His face was flushed red as he spat,"How much importance does the Imperial Court and the officials place on you, Chu Feng? Could it be that they had to fight and blood flowed like rivers?”
"Overseer Yuan, isn't this inappropriate?"
Damn it.
Chu Feng didn't try to persuade him anymore. He narrowed his eyes and said,""Putting aside Empress Yi 'an, does the Zhu Youjian you speak of value me? They were clearly afraid of the hundred thousand soldiers in Shengjing City.”
“……”
Yuan Chonghuan choked again.
"Let's not delve into this matter. Let's talk about marriage.”
Chu Feng put on an earnest expression and said with a bitter smile,""Chongzhen wants to remarry the Empress, did you send a letter to inform him? Did anyone from the Imperial Court's Bureau of Rites or Honglu Temple come? Now, when Shengjing City is training its soldiers and horses, busy fighting against the Eight Banners of Manmeng, you, Overseer Yuan, suddenly appeared and told me that Empress Yi 'an is going to marry me? Isn't it rude?"
"This…"
She was in the wrong.
Yuan Chonghuan felt guilty on the way here. He didn't even greet her and directly sent her over. Wasn't this clearly being criticized by others?
"Empress Yi 'an is the former emperor's main palace. Since she remarried, why would she care about such etiquette?”
Zu Dashou couldn't stand it anymore and said angrily,""In my opinion, why is General Chu deliberately picking on me?”
"General Zu, if that's the case, then please ask Empress Yi 'an to retreat.”
Chu Feng nonchalantly spread out his hands and said disdainfully.
"Hey hey, don't, don't…"
Yuan Chonghuan was so scared that he let out a thump. If Zhu Youjian knew that the negotiation had failed because of him, the heads of the entire family would be completely lost.
Yuan Chonghuan forcefully suppressed his grievance and continued to bow and scrape,""General Chu, this old man has not considered things properly. His Majesty's letter has already been sent to the pass. I thought that Empress Yi 'an would only come after a few days, so I didn't rush to report…"
"Sigh! I didn't mean to make things difficult for you."
Chu Feng's tone also softened," The Empress of a country has come to marry me, Chu Feng. Even if there's a huge grudge between us, it's time to turn hostility into friendship."”
"This old man is extremely grateful.
"Empress Yi 'an…"
Chu Feng thoughtfully placed his hands behind his back and raised his head to look outside the hall. He said with a smile that was not a smile,"Since she will be my woman in the future, how can I not care? Forget it…Overseer Yuan, please go back and tell Chongzhen that I will definitely dote on Zhang Yan.”
“……”
Yuan Chonghuan's head buzzed.
Why did it feel like Empress Yi 'an wanted to marry you, and you still looked very wronged?
Zu Dashou was also at a loss. He looked east and then carefully, his expression anxious.
"General Chu, General Chu…"
Yuan Chonghuan was about to break down." You see, Empress Yi 'an is coming to Shengjing City tomorrow. She has to prepare the wedding decorations."”
"It's nothing more than some superficial etiquette. Why would Governor Yuan care about these red tape…"
"This…how is this a red tape?”
" You…" Yuan Chonghuan's expression froze." Empress Yi 'an is the queen of a country. She remarried you. You…You have to marry her officially…"
"Overseer Yuan, are you joking?”
Chu Feng was stunned as if he wanted to hear a joke.""The Empress Yi 'an that you keep calling is remarried to me for the sake of the Ming Empire and the Zhu Dynasty, and she is not in love with me.”
" Moreover, don't forget that ever since Empress Yi 'an left the capital, she was no longer the Empress, but Zhang Yan, my woman…"
"Since she's my woman, how should Overseer Yuan worry about how to treat her?”
“……”
Yuan Chonghuan was speechless and could not help but look at Zu Dashou.
You said you wanted to remarry to the Empress, but she accepted you.
However, he had no right to interfere with how he collected it.
Either you bring the Empress back or you stay and serve me well.
The consequences of bringing it back would be the power of the country, a bloody battle in Shengjing, and the final outcome would be both sides suffering. Even if they won, it would be a tragic victory, and at least half of the Ming army would be lost.
At that time, Huang Taiji's Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty, or Li Zicheng's rebel army from the Central Plains, would attack.
Does Da Ming still have the strength to resist? Could the Zhu Dynasty still be preserved?
It was hard to say.
Thinking of this, Yuan Chonghuan could only grit his teeth and swallow his words. He forced a smile and said,""Since that's the case, then let General Chu decide.”
"Eh, Overseer Yuan, that's more like it.”
Chu Feng nodded his head in relief. He slowly sat down and took a sip of tea."Since that's the case, then in the future, Great Ming will share a common enemy with me and resist the enemy together.”
"Of course, of course…"
The two families had turned enemies into friends. Whether they surrendered or not could be discussed later. Yuan Chonghuan couldn't be happier.
"Alright then…"
Chu Feng took a sip of the hot tea and smacked his lips."Overseer Yuan, I'll get straight to the point.”
"General Chu, feel free to speak."
"Recently, several of my scouts have found out that Huang Taiji has formed an alliance with the Eight Banners of Meng and formed two hundred thousand soldiers.”
Chu Feng stopped joking and said seriously,""To be honest, I probably won't be able to personally welcome Empress Yi 'an's marriage.”
"What do you mean?"
"Northern Expedition."
"When we entered the city just now, you and General Yuan must have seen it. All the soldiers under my command have been training day and night. The goal is to eliminate Huang Taiji and his Houjin army."”
"Hiss-"
When it came to military affairs, the hostility between the two sides instantly disappeared.
Yuan Chonghuan stroked his beard, and Zu Dashou's blood boiled as he listened.
Destroying the Hou Jin army and killing all the eight banners of the Qing Dynasty, let alone these two people, was also the dream of the Ming Dynasty for decades.
However, it was too difficult and it was winter. They really did not have the courage or confidence to go to the vast grasslands.
"General Chu…"
Yuan Chonghuan seemed to have changed into a different person. He frowned and said,"Huang Taiji has been harassing the Central Plains for many years. I have thought of attacking from thousands of miles away to fight him, but it is truly difficult.”
"Understood."
Chu Feng nodded: " My intention just now was to ask if Overseer Yuan is willing to join forces to attack?"”
