"Why are you?"

When Zhu Yigui led his people to Huang Taohuan's place, the original joy on Huang Taohuan's face suddenly turned into surprise.

"Hehehe, Lord Huang, I came sooner, Zhang Shuai is still behind." Zhu Yigui saluted Huang Taohuan with a smile. You must know that Huang Taohuan is a minister of the Ming Dynasty to Korea and a second-rank official. Zhu Yigui can win big in front of Wang Wen and Zhang Fei, but he can't face Huang Taohuan.

With a slight frowning, Huang Taohuan didn't expect that the first person to enter Seoul was Zhu Yigui. However, it was useless to say these things now. He immediately reached out and grabbed Zhu Yigui and pulled him aside.

“How many people entered the city?”

"It's almost 30,000 now. Before we can count it, there are still 60,000 or 70,000 people outside the city." Zhu Yigui's number was shocked by Huang Taohuan. As the minister stationed in Korea, he was in charge of the Ming Dynasty's military and political affairs in North Korea. Huang Taohuan knew how many troops the Ming Dynasty had in Jeju had.

With all the plans, no matter how much you calculate, there will be no way there will be so many people. Could it be that the court directly sent a landing army?

Seeing Huang Taohuan's puzzled expression, Zhu Yigui laughed and told Huang Taohuan about the situation on the way north. Only then did Huang Taohuan understand how Zhu Yigui got this 100,000 army.

Looking at the brave general in front of him with laughter and cry, Huang Taohuan didn't know what to say. But now it is not the time to discuss these things. Since Zhang Fei is still behind, it may take as soon as possible to arrive. However, Seoul has been broken, and some things cannot be delayed.

Immediately, Huang Taohuan lowered his voice and explained to Zhu Yigui in this way. The more Zhu Yigui heard, his eyes became brighter and brighter. When he heard his head behind him nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

"I'll just say, how could Lord Huang fall into Seoul with your ability? It turns out that all this is in your plan..." Zhu Yigui couldn't help but say. Seeing Huang Taohuan glaring at him, Zhu Yigui quickly stopped talking and said, "Don't worry, Lord Huang, I'll do it immediately, I will definitely do it for you."

"It's not for me! It's for the Ming Dynasty! It's for the emperor! It's also for the North Korea!" Huang Taohuan corrected the matter solemnly.

"Yes, yes, yes." Zhu Yigui smiled and responded, then said, "However, my army has just entered Seoul, and I am not familiar with the place..."

"Don't worry, I've arranged this a long time ago." Huang Taohuan interrupted Zhu Yigui's words directly, then reached out toward the back with a move, and a man in North Korean official uniform couldn't wait to come over.

"Cui Xiheng, Lord Cui." Huang Taohuan pointed at the man and said to Zhu Yigui: "With Lord Cui's assistance, Zhu Shuai can naturally act with confidence and boldness. Lord Cui is a major minister of North Korea and a loyal minister of North Korea. He will naturally help Zhu Shuai deal with everything."

"For the Ming Dynasty, the emperor, and the North Korea, I am humble and unrestrained!" At this moment, Cui Xiheng changed his previous fearful appearance and responded loudly with confidence and spirit.

Looking at Cui Xiheng and looking at Huang Taohuan, Zhu Yigui couldn't help but sigh in his heart that this old boy Huang Taohuan was really cruel. No wonder the emperor didn't choose anyone back then, but he was the minister stationed in Korea.

Now North Korea has become the treasure of the Ming Dynasty. Huang Taohuan has been planning for this big game for many days, and even took risks with his own life. This kind of ruthlessness is so strange that North Korea is not destroyed in his hands.

The situation was urgent, and Zhu Yigui didn't say much. He immediately took Cui Xiheng and the other North Korean officials that Huang Taohuan had arranged long ago to leave. As Zhu Yigui left, Seoul, the royal city of North Korea, was about to usher in its longest and cruel night.

Ten days later, Beijing, the Forbidden City.

Today happens to be the 30th day of the twelfth lunar month, which is commonly known as the New Year's Eve among the people.

The whole city of Beijing is full of joy, and even the palace is decorated with lights. After this day, the Ming Dynasty will usher in a new year.

Compared with the people, ordinary families have started to have holidays, but the imperial officials are not that relaxed.

During the Ming Dynasty, the holidays for Ming officials were originally three days a year, which is the Spring Festival. The winter solstice and the emperor’s birthday were only on holidays, so they had to work at other times.

From this point of view, it was extremely hard to be an official in the Ming Dynasty, and it was far more than 996 in later generations.

During the reign of Emperor Chengzu, Zhu Di offered grace to this, so he added the ten-day holiday on the Lantern Festival, and then continued it with a regular rule.

During the Shenzong period, the New Year's Day and Lantern Festival holidays were simply combined into one, and the holiday lasted for 20 days. Of course, the New Year's Day here is different from the New Year's Day in later generations, which refers to the 20th day of the holiday on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

After Zhu Yicheng restored the country, considering that the court had just established and the world was not decided, it would be inappropriate for the court to have such a long vacation. For this reason, Zhu Yicheng specially promised to have three days off after the grand court meeting on New Year's Day and two more days off on Lantern Festival, totaling five days, to celebrate.

But as time goes by, the entire Ming Dynasty has now completely controlled China, and the Qing Dynasty is about to completely perish. Coupled with the long-term work intensity, the Ming officials have too few holidays. Moreover, the Ming Dynasty's business is booming, and appropriately increasing holidays can not only give grace to the world, but also play a role in stimulating business.

Because of these reasons, from next year, that is, tomorrow, Zhu Yicheng once again adjusted the holiday time of officials. On weekdays, officials can take a day off every ten days, and the holidays for the winter solstice and the emperor’s birthday are still the same. The holidays for New Year’s Day and Lantern Festival are directly increased from three days after the court meeting on New Year’s Day to five days, and the Lantern Festival will be on another three days, totaling eight days.

Of course, it is necessary for the on-duty personnel of each department and the yamen to adjust the specific arrangements themselves and then report them to the Ministry of Personnel for filing.

So, today is the day before the holiday and the last day of the year. Zhu Yicheng specially changed into a new robe early in the morning, and she looked very happy.

"Emperor, the Military Affairs Office has an urgent report! Lord Liao asked for a visit." As soon as he sat down in the side hall, Zhu Yicheng had no time to read the arrangements of the tomorrow's grand ceremony sent by the Ministry of Rites, Xiao Jiangzi quickly stepped into the report.

"Let him come in." Zhu Yicheng did not look up when he heard the sound, and continued to look at the rituals in his hand.

After a while, a burst of rapid footsteps came, and Liao Huanzhi arrived soon.

"I congratulate you for the Emperor! Congratulations to my Ming Dynasty!" When I saw Zhu Yicheng, Liao Huanzhi couldn't help but worship with a big gift, and then held a military report in his hand: "Grand, the news from North Korea is coming, the overall situation has been decided!"

"What?!" Zhu Yicheng was shocked, and then he was happy. At this time, he didn't even bother to look at the order in his hand. He threw the order and stood up, walked quickly to Liao Huanzhi, and reached out to take the military newspaper.

After turning it open and taking a look, Zhu Yicheng smiled on his face, and he couldn't help laughing.

"Hahaha, I originally thought that it would take some time for the North Korean affairs to be launched, but I didn't expect that Huang Taohuan actually gave me a surprise, OK! OK!"

With a big laugh, Zhu Yichengcai found that Liao Huanzhi was still kneeling, and quickly reached out to help him up, then waved his sleeves and said, "Liao Qing, let me finish this first."

Liao Huanzhi responded and found a place to sit down. Zhu Yicheng also returned to his position and read the military newspaper with concentration.

The military newspaper roughly talked about the civil strife in North Korea. Huang Taohuan, the Ming Dynasty minister stationed in North Korea, was trapped in Seoul due to civil strife, and was not aware of his life or death. Therefore, Zhang Fei-chan, who was admiring the military affairs of the Ming Dynasty in Jeju, and Wang Wen, the counselor, immediately sent troops to North Korea to quell the civil strife in North Korea and rescue Huang Taohuan.

After landing from Nangang, the Ming army headed north like a staggering force, but when they arrived in Seoul, the two sects of Lao Lun and Shao Lun in the middle of the North Korean army were defeated by the death of the Ming Dynasty, and they were burned to death.

When the Ming army entered Seoul, the prince of the Joseon was already killed by the desperate Shao Lun faction, and the Shao Lun faction and the Lao Lun faction also suffered heavy casualties. Many important Korean officials were killed, and even the palace was captured by the riots. A fire burned into the sky. Except for the Korean king who was lucky enough to be rescued by the Ming army who rushed over, most of the other Korean royal family and palace servants were buried in the fire...

Seeing this, Zhu Yicheng had a smile on his lips, and looked up at Liao Huanzhi.

"Emperor, I have another secret memorial, which is from Huang Taohuan. I'll ask the emperor to take a look." It seemed that I had expected what Zhu Yicheng would say, but Liao Huanzhi calmly took out a memorial and handed it on.

"You old guy!" Zhu Yicheng laughed and scolded him, threw the official military newspaper aside, and turned to Huang Taohuan's secret memorial.

Since it was a secret memorial, Liao Huanzhi certainly would not read it first, and the hot paint on it was intact. However, Liao Huanzhi knew in his heart what would be written in the secret memorial, and also understood why Huang Taohuan posted such a thing in addition to the official military newspaper.

As expected, after Zhu Yicheng quietly read this item, he knew all the ins and outs of the North Korean change. The inside story disclosed in this item is too amazing and naturally it is impossible to leak it. As for the military newspaper on the surface, it is for people all over the world to see, so what is said is completely different from the secret commentary. This is also to safeguard the face of the Ming Dynasty and give North Korea an explanation.

After closing the secret memorial, Zhu Yicheng felt a little proud. Although he used Huang Taohuan as the man recommended by Wu Sidao, he was the one who finally decided and appointed him. At present, Huang Taohuan used his means to pacify North Korea in one fell swoop, and also uprooted the power of the Korean royal family and two groups of ministers, which completely destroyed the foundation of Lee's foundation in North Korea.

Now in North Korea, there are very few remaining ministers among the two squads of ministers, and these remaining people are all held in Huang Taohuan's hands. It can be said that they are already from the Ming Dynasty. As for the Korean royal family, the prince and other heirs have all been killed by the "Korean Rebellion Party" in the chaos, and even the palace was destroyed in the fire.
