Hongwu Daming: Why hasn't my son rebelled?

Chapter 255 Bei Yuan's Final Strategy!
In fact, just as Zhu Qi guessed, Zhu Yuanzhang in the court had already begun to discuss the matter of attacking Beiyuan.

It has been 16 years since Hongwu, and Zhu Qi has been in Yunnan for half a year.

And for nearly half a year, I have done nothing, just stabilize people's hearts, mess with people's livelihood and so on.

And hearing the news about the attack on Beiyuan from the imperial court was also heard in August of the 16th year of Hongwu.

At this time, the people in Hongwu can still ride horses to fight, and there are still quite a lot of generals leading troops.

Although Xu Da is not young, he still has no problem playing.

As long as you don't ride the horse yourself, go to the front and charge like you used to.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang obviously wanted to use younger generals. After all, Xu Da was indeed a little too old.

If young generals are not used at this time, is it necessary to wait for Xu Da to be old and no one will be available?
And Zhu Yuanzhang's best candidate is naturally Liao King Zhu Qi.

That's right, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't hesitate to think about it at all. At that time, he proposed in the court that he wanted his third son, Zhu Qi, to lead the Ming army to destroy the last power of Beiyuan.

Originally, I thought that there would be many objections, but this time, no one spoke.

Everyone looks at me and I look at you, even if you want to object, you have to hold back this time.

That's a matter of fighting Beiyuan. If there is another general, what if something goes wrong.

They can't afford this responsibility, but everyone has a consensus, that is, if Liao King Zhu Qi goes, the people of Yuan Dynasty will probably be doomed.

That's right, Liao King Zhu Qi is so miraculous, look at this journey, but anyone who is against Liao King Zhu Qi.There is a happy ending.

What's more, Yunnan has recovered so beautifully, and now many people in the Central Plains have already begun to migrate towards Yunnan.

Many people originally thought that ordinary people would not want to go to Yunnan.

When the time comes to force the relocation, there will be mourning everywhere, and there will be many major murders and the like, but I didn't expect the common people to leave so willingly.

There is no other reason, because this is an initiative initiated by Liao King Zhu Qi.

And I also said that anyone who migrates to Yunnan will be exempted from tax for 5 years in addition to having new crops that can be planted.

A new medical manual was also issued, which said how to deal with the problem of miasma in Yunnan.

Good guy, this Yunnan miasma is something that everyone is afraid of.

Our Royal Highness Liao Wang can actually solve it. You said that if you let it go two years ago, no one will believe it.

His Royal Highness Liao Wang is a prince, can he still understand medical skills?

But before, His Royal Highness King Liao had invented antibiotics and saved so many people on the battlefield.

After those people were injured by the knife, if they didn't have the antibiotics given by His Royal Highness King Liao, they would have died in Huangquan long ago.

It can be said that many of the wounded who retreated from the front line survived because of His Royal Highness Liao Wang.

Everyone was naturally grateful to His Royal Highness Liao Wang. Now that they heard that there was a solution to deal with the miasma in Yunnan, it was the solution His Royal Highness Liao Wang came up with. Naturally, everyone absolutely believed in it without any doubt.

What's more, in this medical manual, the treatment methods written in it have indeed been tried by some people and are really effective.

Jin Yiwei, who has never been to Yunnan, will follow His Highness's method uniformly after arriving in Yunnan.

Bathing frequently, paying attention to hygiene, and using various medicines to deal with mosquitoes, no one is really affected by the miasma.

Originally, this miasma was very terrifying and mysterious to ancient people.

But for Zhu Qi, there is really nothing, isn't it just pests and bacterial infections?

As long as you pay attention to bathing and hygiene, there will be no miasma or anything, so the common people in the Central Plains are very enthusiastic.

Although there is still a lot of land in the Central Plains, it can be cultivated for them.

But the Central Plains is not tax-free. The five-year tax exemption is equivalent to half a person's life.

At this time in the Ming Dynasty, the average life expectancy was only in the 30s, and 5 years was equal to 1/6.

Not everyone has this opportunity. There is no hope of being an official and aristocrat for future generations, but the opportunity of being free for 5 years is still worth fighting for.

Of course, there is another more important reason, which is a saying circulating in the Central Plains.

It is said that after His Royal Highness the King of Liao went to Yunnan to develop new agriculture, he found that the potatoes grown in Yunnan were grown four times a year.

Good guy, what kind of concept is this?

In the south of the Yangtze River, there are only two crops a year, even if it is the best rice field, it is only three crops.

And everyone knows about potatoes. They have been planted for four or five years, and the yield is very high.

There are 4 harvests a year, and potatoes are also planted in winter, so this year is equivalent to two or three years owed to others.

If it is really so powerful, that family will not starve to death even if they raise a dozen children.

What are people most afraid of these days?
Isn't it because you are afraid of starving?

If you can have so much food at home, you will be happier than anything else.

This is one of the reasons why everyone is eager to go to Yunnan.

So in a short period of time, Yunnan has become extremely stable all of a sudden.

In addition, a large number of officials were sent to Yunnan, and Liao King Zhu Qi placed these officials at the grassroots level in the countryside.

As for those gentry, they were slowly squeezed out by marginalization.

All in all, the matter of sending imperial power to the countryside has been done quite well in Yunnan, and it can be regarded as a successful experiment.

However, it is not a matter of rushing to promote it in other places in Daming.

After all, the cost is still quite high. The reason why the imperial power should go to the countryside in Yunnan is mainly to enhance the control of Yunnan.

There is also the need to allow immigrants from the Central Plains to fill the vacancies in Yunnan as soon as possible.

This is the real meaning, but there is no such thing as chieftain in the Central Plains for a long time, so naturally there is no need to worry about letting the imperial power go to the countryside.

It's perfectly fine to take your time, and after Zhu Qi was busy with these things, he quickly received orders from the central court.

Zhu Qi originally thought it was Zhu Yuanzhang's imperial decree and ordered him to go back and prepare to lead the army to attack Beiyuan, but the order he received surprised Zhu Qi a bit.

His mother, Empress Ma, was seriously ill.

--------

It is really amazing that history affects such things. Zhu Qi clearly remembers that Queen Ma in history died of a serious illness in the 15th year of Hongwu.

But in the 15th year of Hongwu, Zhu Qi waited for a year, but did not hear the news that Queen Ma was seriously ill.

I thought it was because of her own reasons, Empress Ma also paid attention to maintaining and exercising her body on weekdays.

That's why he didn't die of illness as early as in history, but now that Hongwu heard the news that Empress Ma was seriously ill in early 16, Zhu Qixin became nervous for no reason.

Is history inevitable after all?

Thinking of this, Zhu Qi didn't dare to neglect in the slightest, and rushed to the palace with some guards under him.

He traveled non-stop, starry night, which originally took nearly a month, but in less than half a month, Zhu Qi rushed back to Yingtian Mansion from Yunnan.

And when they returned to Yingtian Mansion, the common people naturally didn't notice anything, and it was still the same as usual.

It's just that as soon as he entered the palace, Zhu Qi felt that the atmosphere was different. Although the previous palace was very solemn and solemn.

But at least they are still a little angry, but the current palaces all seem to be cautious, for fear of doing something wrong.

Everyone walked quickly, with their heads bowed, not daring to say a word.

It is conceivable that the news of Empress Ma's serious illness made Zhu Yuanzhang's temper not much better recently.

Everyone in the palace is naturally in danger.

In history, there are actually different opinions on why Queen Ma died, but generally speaking, there are no particularly credible historical records.

After all, the level of medical treatment at that time was not very developed, no matter what kind of disease there was no classification, naturally it was not clear what kind of disease it was.

But what is certain is that it should be your own disease, not caused by external factors.

This is also the most headache for Zhu Qi.

You said that if it is recorded in history, Queen Ma fell to her death from a horse, or fell into the water and drowned or something.

I can still find a way to remedy it, but if the death is caused by my own disease, can these still help Queen Ma to see a doctor?

This is naturally impossible. Although he can invent antibiotics, antibiotics themselves are not particularly difficult.

And if he wants to treat physical diseases like other professional doctors, he doesn't have those professional medicines and equipment.

And it is unrealistic for you to expect that Chinese medicine can fundamentally solve the disease.

Today's traditional Chinese medicine is mainly used to treat some basic chronic diseases.

But if it is a very urgent physical disease, there is no particularly good way.

In the final analysis, it is still necessary to integrate traditional Chinese and Western medicine to be able to manage a person's health well.

It's useless to say so much, Zhu Qi can only rush back now, and quickly see how Queen Ma, that is, his mother's current physical condition.

If he could still be saved, he would naturally try his best to save him, but if he couldn't, Zhu Qi sank inside for no reason.

Although he is not Queen Ma, his real son has only traveled here temporarily.

But it has been so many years since he came to Daming. Although the friendship with Empress Ma is not as close as that of a real mother and child, Zhu Qi has long regarded Empress Ma as his mother in his heart.

And many times Empress Ma will take good care of herself, she really treats herself as her own son.

Now that Zhu Qi realized that Empress Ma might die soon, there was no need to talk about the pain in his heart.

Needless to say about the other princes, when Zhu Qi came to the palace, the king of Yan, Zhu Di, was the first to greet him. Zhu Di's eyes were already red at this time, and he came a few days earlier than Zhu Qi.

The two brothers didn't talk nonsense when they met, Zhu Qi immediately asked about his mother's situation.

And Zhu Di told Zhu Qi about the situation intermittently, naturally he was not very optimistic.

The imperial doctors over there couldn't see what was wrong.Zhu Yuanzhang was furious because of this. If it hadn't been for Empress Ma's efforts to stop him, Zhu Yuanzhang might have killed those imperial doctors on the spot.

On the contrary, there is no need to mention the yin and yang things that are in the cloud and mist.

If it is really useful, it is unlikely that Empress Ma died at the age of 15 in Hongwu for 51 years in history.

Zhu Qi didn't dare to delay after hearing what Zhu Di had said, and immediately went to Queen Ma's side.

As soon as we got to the door, we saw the emperor's guard of honor. It was obvious that Zhu Yuanzhang was also here.

And Zhu Biao stood at the door with an anxious look on his face, Zhu Qi stepped forward and hurriedly asked how his elder brother was doing, and then he spoke.

"Just now, the empress's mother was in a hurry, and the imperial doctor came in for treatment, and I don't know how the situation is now."

After Zhu Qi heard it, he was also extremely anxious, but he had no choice but to wait outside,

It didn't take long to see Zhu Yuanzhang coming out of the house with a gloomy face.

It looked better after seeing Zhu Qi.

Zhu Qi hurried up to salute, but Zhu Yuanzhang didn't ask him to be too polite, and stopped him directly, and then said.

"Fourth, everyone says you have superb medical skills, so go and help your mother find out what's wrong."

Zhu Yuanzhang's tone was anxious, obviously he didn't have any particularly high expectations for those imperial doctors.

If they could see it well, they wouldn't let Zhu Qi watch it.

At this time, he didn't dare to refuse. Although he said that he had no medical skills, he still walked towards the house quickly.

As soon as I entered, I could smell a strong smell of medicine. Many imperial doctors were standing there with their heads buried, their bodies trembling, obviously as if they had been reprimanded just now.

I didn't hear any coughing sound in my ears, but I saw Empress Ma lying on the bed, her face was already pale, not as healthy as before.

Zhu Qi hurried up to help Empress Ma's arm on the bed, and then heard the imperial doctor next to him talk about some simple situations.

Zhu Qi heard that the symptoms were unbearable pain and vomiting, so naturally he didn't know what was going on.

It's just that Empress Ma is in a dying state now, and according to the imperial doctor, it may be difficult for Da Luo Jinxian to be rescued.

But everyone is looking forward to looking at His Royal Highness Liao Wang, isn't Liao Wang Zhu Qi the Da Luo Jinxian?

Although everyone had great hopes for themselves, Zhu Qi really had no choice.

I don't even know what kind of disease Queen Ma has.

If it's smallpox, it's okay, and I can treat it with vaccinia.

The key is that Empress Ma's disease is her own disease and has nothing to do with external infection.

Zhu Qi reckoned that it should be a disease that can only be cured by methods such as surgery.

But knowing Gui knew exactly what to do, there was nothing he could do.

Zhu Qi could only comfort her with warm words beside his mother, but he knew in his heart that there was really nothing he could do.

When Empress Ma saw his expression, she naturally knew that Zhu Qi had nothing to do with his condition.

However, he still comforted Zhu Qi with a soft voice, and finally called the other children in.

The meaning of the queen is obvious, and the last time of life wants to be with the children.
