Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 491 The Bottom Line
Outside Yingtian Mansion, a mighty team is slowly marching, this is not the army of the Ming Dynasty.

The emperor's chariot is empty now, just an empty cart going.In fact, there is also an emperor's car in this team. This is not to worry about "Zhang Liang's assassination of the Qin Dynasty", so there is a "suspicious car".

The simple thing is that the Ming Dynasty not only had emperors, but also the Supreme Emperor. The emperor's guard of honor, etc., can be used by the Supreme Emperor.

Zhu Yunying looked at little Zhu who was lying on Lao Zhu's lap, and suddenly felt a little regretful, "We thought Yin'er had grown up and improved a little now, and we wanted him to take care of Grandpa Huang. We are still high After looking at him, Grandpa Huang has to take care of him."

Old Zhu smiled and touched little Zhu's head, and said, "Yin'er is still taking care of us. We went out of the palace with him a few days ago, and Yin'er took care of us all the way. Which way to go, what things We Yin’er know it well if we can enter it.”

"That's a good thing, but I'm too lazy." Zhu Yunying laughed and said to Lao Zhu, "Our Yin'er is also more sensible."

Little Zhu sat up and said dissatisfied, "Father, it's not that we are ignorant, our great-grandfather liked us like this."

Old Zhu was upset, and got angry at Zhu Yunying, "Yin'er is so obedient, you're just looking for trouble. You don't talk too much, and he is so happy to sleep on our legs! As long as you can, it will show your filial piety, right? !"

Well, Lao Zhu's obvious eccentricity is self-assured, and Lao Zhu has never concealed his eccentricity. It was like this before, and it is still like this now.If old Zhu lived to be a hundred years old, maybe he would do the same to little Zhu's heirs in the future.

Zhu Yunying suddenly laughed, and said, "Our Yin'er is stubborn, but this child is not confused about major matters. This trip back home, the two of you are together, and we feel at ease."

"That's the reason, he can't leave us, and we are also worried that Yin'er will be bullied at a young age." Lao Zhu touched Xiao Zhu's head and said, "The last time we went home, I guess it might be our last time. I went back to see our parents. I didn’t know that we are still healthy, and we have survived until now, but this trip is really the last one.”

Hearing what old Zhu said, little Zhu also became silent, he didn't know what to say.

Because of his existence, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty changed, and the direction of history also changed.Little Zhu, the crown prince, did not exist in history.It's hard to say whether Da Zhu lived a few more years because of Zhu Yunying, but the fate of some people has changed.

The simplest proof is that Lan Yu, the general who was originally skinned by Lao Zhu, has become not only the 'Duke Liang', but also the Duke Liang.The group of top military generals left by Lao Zhu for Da Zhu does not need to be cleaned up, because Zhu Yunying can take over.

Sapphire is alive, and many Wu Xun who were originally involved in the Sapphire case also survived.Maybe it didn't last until now, but at least he didn't encounter any misfortunes, he didn't have his family ransacked, his family was wiped out, and his title was not stripped.

Lao Zhu's fate has also changed a lot, which is already 73.Although I have grown old in the past two years, I am still alive anyway, and my spirit is also good, without the loneliness and depression of old age in history.

Old Zhu was in a good mood, and explained to Zhu Yunying, "We thought that if we were healthy, we would stay in our hometown for a longer time."

Zhu Yunying nodded with a smile, there is no reason to object, "Succeed, Grandpa Huang has been out for many years and has been busy. This time, I will take a good look at it when I go back. Ordinary people also say that fallen leaves return to their roots. Our emperor's family may not have this blessing." gone."

Lao Zhu also sighed, in fact, he didn't want to be buried in Fengyang's hometown, in front of his parents.Not being able to be filial in the past, and not being able to be filial after death, this can be regarded as a knot in Lao Zhu's heart.

"Our parents can understand these things. They have been farming all their lives, but they still starved to death." Lao Zhu stroked Xiao Xiao Zhu's head and said, "Our son is still a good-for-nothing. The country has been laid down."

Zhu Yunying recognized this, and said, "That's the reason, our great-grandfathers must be very happy to know the achievements of the emperor's grandpa."

"Our great-grandfather is so powerful, who wouldn't like it!" Little Zhu said proudly, unwilling to be lonely, "Our great-grandfather is the emperor, grandpa is the emperor, and our father is also the emperor! From now on, we, we will also be emperors! Don't say we The great-grandfather is a commoner, a monk, and those princes and grandchildren, how many of them are better than our great-grandfather?!"

Little Zhu was proud and proud from the bottom of his heart, but old Zhu was so relieved and happy. He fought half his life just for these children and grandchildren.

However, what Xiao Xiao Zhu said was indeed true.Not to mention Lao Zhu's humble background, even those aristocratic families, how many dynasties can establish a unified dynasty, this is an out-and-out feat.

Compared with the usual glorious lintel, Lao Zhu's achievements must have made the ancestors of Lao Zhu's family smile.

When he was just smiling, Lao Zhu couldn't help complaining, "Although we never deny our background, it's just you bastard who likes to arrange us. We are just a novice in the temple, what kind of big monk is we? Not so promising."

It is also reasonable to say that, there is still a big difference between monks and novice monks.If Lao Zhu had become a real monk in the past, he might have had a chance to survive if he had obtained a certificate of duty, and the current Ming Dynasty would not have existed.

Little Zhu was very happy and proud, "Our great-grandfather was a commoner in Fengyang, and our great-grandfather was a beggar for many years. We, we are not afraid of people saying."

"A son doesn't think his mother is ugly, and a dog doesn't think his family is poor." Lao Zhu looked at Xiao Zhu, and he was satisfied with what he saw, "That's the reason, we don't need to look for those ancestors, we are old farmers in Fengyang. Our descendants , There is no need to hide these things, remember our origin, our descendants should also know how to be sympathetic to the common people."

Look, Lao Zhu is still really biased to the point of being confident, and Xiao Zhu is really right in everything now, and Lao Zhu will definitely not object in the slightest.

Old Zhu also confessed to Xiao Zhu, and said, "We are not in Beijing, do you remember what you should do these days?"

"We have always kept the matter of spring plowing in our hearts." Zhu Yunying replied without hesitation, without any hesitation, "Our Daming should be farming. Even if we like things outside, we know that if there is no food in the Ming Dynasty, people's hearts will be destroyed." It should go away."

For this answer, Lao Zhu was naturally extremely satisfied.In fact, he is also more worried about the direction of the Ming Dynasty. If it is said that the Ming Dynasty became the Song Dynasty, that would not be a good thing.Although the Song Dynasty was extremely rich, their martial arts were too weak, and they were always being beaten everywhere, which is not good.

Zhu Yunying's expression was serious, and he continued, "In addition to the matter of spring plowing, we also have to pay attention to the matter of spreading the land into the mu. Taxation is the foundation of the country, especially now that we still want to receive more taxes. Also keep an eye on it."

Old Zhu nodded with a smile, but he still criticized, "Although we can pay more taxes for the matter of sharing the land into the mu, it's just that we don't necessarily want to collect more taxes, or we just want to impose excessively. It is a good thing to collect more taxes, but we should also be sympathetic to the people.”

This can also be regarded as the characteristic of Lao Zhu. Zhu Yunying also believed that what Lao Zhu said was absolutely sincere, and there was no doubt about it.

For civil and military officials and aristocratic families, Lao Zhu is absolutely ruthless.But to ordinary people, Lao Zhu is more kind, probably because he was born in a poor family.

"We still have to keep an eye on the bank. That's what we're messing with after all." Zhu Yunying continued, "It just so happens that Liaodong is using troops this time, and those people from Nanyang can also come in handy. Get more land , so as to appease the Jurchen."

Speaking of Jurchen, it's not just the Jin Dynasty.These nations have always been developing, and it can be said that they have always existed.

In fact, the current Jurchen is also divided into three parts: Jianzhou Jurchen, Haixi Jurchen, and Donghai Jurchen. There are many Jurchens in Liaodong.

The Haidong Jurchen is basically here, which is also known as the 'savage Jurchen'.It has little contact with the Ming Dynasty. It lives by hunting, lives by the sea, lives in thatched cottages, and fishes for food.

Now people from Nanyang are cultivating fields in Liaodong, which is of course very important.And Zhu Yunying also hopes to use this as an example, so that those Jurchens who live in extremely difficult conditions can also be appeased, and they can honestly go to farm and farm.

Regarding Zhu Yunying's statement, Lao Zhu was naturally noncommittal.Even the Mongols who swept the world back then were cleaned up by him, and those almost uncivilized 'savages', Lao Zhu naturally despised them even more.

Some things are not very suitable to be said in front of little Zhu.Although little Zhu has grown up a lot now and has some thoughts, but after all, he is still a child and it is not suitable to speak in front of him.

Although little Zhu is the crown prince, sooner or later he will be exposed to some cruel things.It's just that at this stage, it's better not to mention the people brought back from Nanyang, or the Jurchen savages, etc. in front of him.

"We're not in Beijing, so you might as well punish the nobles." Old Zhu said to Zhu Yunying, "Although we punished them a lot in the early years, it's just that some people have forgotten how serious they are, and acted one by one. It also started to be domineering."

For Lao Zhu's statement, Zhu Yunying basically agreed, because Lao Zhu was just stating some simple facts.

The nobles themselves are a privileged class, and many martial arts are also from poor families, or they are bullies, gangsters, etc., and their family background is quite a luxury for them.

Sometimes there is really no way to kill heroes and so on. Some martial arts are indeed too domineering, and they regard the country's laws as nothing.

Old Zhu couldn't tolerate such things, and neither could Xiao Zhu.I believe that the vast majority of rulers cannot tolerate it.

It's okay to be honorable and rich, but you can't violate the court's laws, this is the bottom line!
