Li Junhua carefully explained Chang Adei all his government affairs, and then followed the camp back to the south of the desert and arrived at the Yanbei Appeasement Zone. It was autumn, and the King Ying of the capital was also led to a team to welcome him. Many Manchu and Mongolian princes and temple monks also arrived. Li Mingxun carried out a large-scale hunting on the grassland and held an alliance, which not only rewarded the vassals and generals to fight the northern expedition, but also demonstrated the merits of pacifying the grassland.

While rewarding, the emperor formally defined the military and political units of the Xintuo area. The vast Mongolian Plateau did not establish an independent appeasement zone, mainly in the Hanhai Desert, the Greater Khingan Mountains and the Altai Mountains. The northern desert was a relatively independent area. Later, the Qing Dynasty also caused the difference between Inner Mongolia and Outer Mongolia, which to a certain extent caused the division of Outer Mongolia. The northern area of ​​the northern desert was divided into four parts. The Krulun River and Hulunbuir area belonged to the newly established North Sea appeasement zone, and the Tanuwulianghai and other places were also assigned to the Kubdo, Ulya Sutai area and some old areas of Zasaktu Khan were classified into the Guanxi appeasement zone, and officially integrated the northwest border defense of the empire into one. The Qing Dynasty, Wei Lat forces, and the Tsarist Russia, who were unwilling to fail, if they want to attack and threaten the empire, they must first defeat the Guanxi appeasement zone.

The rest of Mobei is divided into two parts: east and west, and is divided into two appeasement zones: Yunzhong and Yanbei. The advantage is that moving people to Mobei is a pioneer in the military and political units. The results belong to the appeasement zone, rather than giving the precious flag support to others.

"Father, all the government offices in the capital have prepared to welcome the triumphal victory, and the various institutions in Nanjing have also sent people to come..." On the way back south, Li Jundu reported the triumphal ceremony to the emperor. Li Mingxun listened carefully. Although he felt that it was a bit boring, it was still appropriate. The Northern Expedition was a national war, and the emperor personally expeditioned, and it was a national event, so naturally the ceremony was indispensable.

"Father, although this Northern Expedition has achieved its established goal, it is a pity that it has not won the full effort, especially the manchu pseudo-emperor Xuanye fled, which may become a disaster in the future. My son heard from his father that this son was extraordinary and far superior to his father. Now I think about it, I feel even more worried..." Li Jundu said with a slight interest. He said, "I don't know if he is really worried or wants to take the opportunity to criticize him. After all, it was the prince's mistake that caused this result.

Li Mingxun waved his hand casually, not so concerned about this matter. Speaking of which, Aisin Jueluo Xuanye was indeed outstanding among the emperors of the Qing Dynasty, but Li Mingxun felt that his two sons were no less than him. After several battles, the Qing Dynasty first changed from a dynasty-level regime that entered the Central Plains to a force that separatist the bitter and cold land of the northern desert. This time he was swept and expelled and had become a bandit and a thief. This clever wife could not be a cook without rice. Even if Kang Mazi was really an emperor of the ages, he could not be a rival to the descendants of the Li family. Li Mingxun's lifelong military battles have built up thousands of miles of strategic depth for his descendants. Not to mention that his sons are young heroes, the empire has also emerged in many talents. Even if the king is a foolish monarch and his ministers are a slander, this great mountain and river can be enough for them to defeat for two or three generations.

For most of his life, Li Mingxun never worries about his descendants, nor does he worry about his descendants. Whenever he meets on the battlefield, he will kill and exterminate him whenever he has the opportunity, and do not let the bandits worry about his descendants. But since he has not done so, don’t think about his delusions and think about his descendants. Who knows what the general trend will be like in a hundred years?

"Although the thief has great talents, the world changes depends on strength. The Qing Dynasty has become a bandit, and the empire is in a prosperous era. The strategy is more enterprising. Don't worry about one or two people." Li Mingxun said to his eldest son with a smile. He couldn't tell what the eldest son said about this matter was. He wanted to take advantage of the situation and smear and reduce points for the prince, or just because he did not participate in the Northern Expedition. He regretted that he had the idea of ​​'If the person who led the army was me, what would he do'. He didn't want to maliciously speculate on his son, but he didn't want to be worried about this matter, so he changed the topic: "The army is triumphant, and the capital is in peace. Don't go wrong again. The emperor is triumphant, and the country is a great gift. If there are any thieves who are assassinating, I will ask you the crime of the regent."

Li Jundu said solemnly: "No, no, I have ordered both military and political terms to participate in public security preparations. There will be no more mistakes. I dare to use my head to guarantee it."

"Head, what do I want my son's head to do? Hahaha, you grow older, the more old-fashioned you are, not as interesting as when you were a child." Li Mingxun smiled and knocked his eldest son's head with a whip.

In the camp, the prince and King Cheng were also extremely enthusiastic when they met because they had never met for a long time. Lin Junhong said: "You have been the most steady since childhood. I didn't expect that once I went to the battlefield, I was like a madman, but you didn't know that I was worried about you in the capital."

Li Junhua knew that his friend was talking about the war in which he led his troops across the Mongolian Plateau and pursued the Qing Dynasty thousands of miles. Speaking of which, Lin Junhong also commanded the Western Regions a few years ago. Compared with this, there were two completely different styles. Although King Cheng was young, he was meticulous in his work, strategically mature and persistent, and moved forward step by step. However, Li Junhua looked completely radical in the Northern Expedition, and went deep into the army and chased after thousands of miles.

"The opportunity is right in front of you, and everything is irresponsible." After a war, Li Junhua matured a lot and responded to Lin Junhong with a smile.

"Fortunately, everything is fine, it's so good." Lin Junhong sighed. The two of them looked at each other speechlessly. After a while, Lin Junhong asked: "Don't you want to ask her? I heard that when you were in Mobei, you asked the third brother to bring her a letter."

Li Junhua did not deny that he did, but in the past period of time, he did not write anymore. Even though there were constant letters, he just read them, but never replied again. Lin Junhong did not know these details. After listening to the prince, he asked, "Why didn't he reply again?"

"Jun Hong, Xu Hanfeng is dead, do you know?" Li Junhua asked back.

Lin Junhong nodded, but didn't know what was related to it, and said, "I heard that, but it's definitely not as simple as dying from the sick. I heard that the people who handled this matter were all from the servants' room. The army and the Lifan Courtyard did not get involved. Because of Mr. Xu, the cabinet also wanted to organize the funeral. After all, he sacrificed his life for the country, but the Xu family refused, saying that the elders were old and could not bear to send the white-haired man to the black-haired man."

Speaking of this, Lin Junhong hesitated a little and asked in a low voice: "Crown Prince, is this your work?"

Lin Junhong knew the secrets of the Yunzhong corruption case, and even participated in some investigations. He also knew that the prince had promised Xu Hanfeng to give him a decent end and let Xu Hanfeng "dead" on the battlefield and enjoy the glory of heroes. There seemed to be no more decent than this, but the question was why the people in the attendant's room took over.

Li Junhua shook his head slightly, and Lin Junhong immediately understood that since he was not the prince, he was the emperor. Thinking of this, he could not ask about this matter anymore. Li Junhua said: "When I left Yunzhong, I had a long talk with Xu Hanfeng. I originally thought it was just some words after drinking, but now I think that he had a heart of dying. The so-called "man is about to die and his words are good. When I think about what he said, I feel more and more reasonable."

"What did he say?" Lin Junhong asked.

Li Junhua said: "He said that if you want to accomplish something, you have to have power. The more you want to do, the greater the power you have to have."

"That's the way to be a minister, what does it have to do with you?" Lin Junhong was puzzled.

Li Junhua breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Why has nothing to do with me? If you are a subordinate, you can't become a high-ranking official, you can still be a small official, you can still achieve careers, and you can still do small things. But I am a prince. As my father said, the competition for the throne is a zero-sum game, the winner takes all, and the loser has nothing!

Originally, in my heart, I was very confused. I only had one goal, which was to inherit my father's career, but I never thought about what I could do when I became the emperor. I have never done anything over the years.

But when I went to the battlefield, when the burden was pressed on my shoulders, there was nothing to be confused. Half a year ago, I led thousands of soldiers westward to pursue, and my mind was full of how to defeat the enemy. When I arrived in Helin and integrated the group of Mongolian soldiers, I wanted to go further and make a contribution in one battle. I chased the banks of the Kobdo River, facing the pseudo Qing emperor, I just wanted to win a great victory, and returned from the front line and took over the military and political responsibilities. The burden on my shoulders was not only the victory of the army, but also the border politics of the empire and hundreds of thousands of people on the Mongolian Plateau..., do you know, Chang Aday and I just moved, so that at least 200,000 people survived and returned a peace in the north of the desert. Junhong, can you feel this sense of accomplishment? Can you feel this feeling of being in charge of the universe and the world is in me?"

As he said that, Li Junhua held Lin Junhong's arms and looked a little crazy with excitement. Lin Junhong looked at the prince in front of him and felt strange. Li Junhua continued: "I found that I can do a lot of things. Since I have this ability and confidence, why don't I do it?"

"Do it? Your Highness, what are you going to do?" Lin Junhong was a little worried.

"Being an emperor, I have the ability, why can't I be an emperor?" Li Junhua said again.

Lin Junhong does not fully understand the internal story of the battle between the two royal princes. Even though there are many rumors, Li Junhua, as the crown prince and Li Junhua, who made contributions in the national war, is still the first heir to the empire. Lin Junhong said: "Your Highness, no one says you can't be the emperor. You are the crown prince, the crown prince, and the future emperor, but you must rest assured about this..."

"I don't mean that, I mean, if I want to be a good emperor, I have the confidence to be a good emperor." Li Junhua restrained himself and said seriously.

Lin Junhong suddenly realized that this is the sweetness of power? Those who have enjoyed her will only ask for more.

"Your Highness, I still think we should stop talking about this matter. Be careful of the walls." Lin Junhong reminded in a low voice.

Li Junhua also felt that he had lost his composure. He said, "I have no other intentions, and you don't have to think too much. I mean, I want to give up some things in order to achieve a career."

"For example..." Lin Junhong asked tentatively.

"The father loves the country and the beauty. Maybe I don't have the kind of good fortune he has. Since he can't have both fish and bear's paws, I can only make choices." Li Junhua's face was full of seriousness, and Lin Junhong finally understood the meaning of the prince. In the past, the source of motivation for the prince's throne was very complicated. There was the expectation of the queen and the yearning for being a son, but now he really wanted to fight for his ideals. Obviously, between the country and the beauty, he chose the former.

Perhaps at this moment, Li Junhua hesitated. After quieting for a while, he asked: "Junhong, a girl labeled as Zhu Ming Restorationist will threaten my dream, right?"

Lin Junhong nodded helplessly, not to mention whether Han Zhiwei was innocent, even if it was not, her identity and background would only be used by others to make a fuss, thus slandering Li Junhua. Now isn’t it the best result she wants, and the prince took the initiative to choose to end.

"After returning to the capital, I want to talk to her..." Li Junhua said.

"What are you talking about?"

Li Junhua had long been determined and said without hesitation: "I will tell her that I am the prince of the empire and the person she hates the most."

"What then?" Lin Junhong asked again.

Li Junhua shook his head: "I don't know. Anyway, I won't let you secretly execute her because of choosing to give up. I hope this matter can be resolved properly, and I hope she can live and have a good life. Can you help me?"

"Your Highness, you should know that this is not the best choice, it is best not to leave any future troubles." Lin Junhong reminded again.

Li Junhua firmly denies: "This is not a matter of superiority or badness. I know that now I am very much like an ambitious man who uses any means to fight for power and profit, but I still have my principles. I am an individual, knowing the warmth and coldness, good and bad, and I don't want to be a slave to power, and I use any means to do it for the throne, and I'm cold-blooded and ruthless. If that's the case, it's like a walking corpse."

"Of course, Your Highness, we are brothers. I support your principles and I will help you." Lin Junhong didn't want the prince to change his ill-fighting method, so he chose to agree.

The emperor's camp returned to the side wall. When he passed by Changping, although he had not been stationed, Li Mingxun still sent some relics belonging to Bumubutai to the War Criminals Management Office and handed them over to Fulin for safekeeping.

"What did Fulin say?" Li Mingxun asked when Wu Yifeng came back.

"He cried for a long time while holding those things. After a long time, he said that he hoped that the emperor would be able to send Bumubutai's body to his hometown Korqin Grassland for burial. If it doesn't work, he could find a place to bury it at will. Wan Wang Emperor would not let him go to Hetuala and bury it with Huang Taiji.

Fulin said that Bumubutai spent his whole life for Manchuria and Qing Dynasty, and shouldn't have been entangled with him after death." Wu Yifeng carefully retelled what he heard.
