Chapter 248 The Great Ming Empire

Chen Xinyue's tenderness is like the small bridges and flowing water in the south of the Yangtze River, soft and gentle, following the spring breeze for eighty miles, and seeing Yangliu Yiyi again.

It is the rustling sound of begonia trees in spring, and the crisp dripping of lotus ponds after rain in summer.

"His Royal Highness, you still have to go to the palace. When you come back, you have to report to your father first."

"I'm tired today, so I won't go."

"His Royal Highness, the etiquette must be comprehensive, and someone will serve His Highness and change his clothes."

Zhu Zhanchang got dressed and scratched Chen Xinyue's nose: "Wait for me to come back at night."

"Your Highness is still watching."

Zhu Zhanchang walked out of the door of the room, and Chen Xinyue made a hip bridge according to the method taught by the mother in the palace to avoid any outflow.

……

In the prince's study, when Zhu Zhanchang arrived, Zhu Gaojiu and Zhu Zhanxu had already arrived. It was rare for Zhu Gaochi to not blame him. After all, the prince concubine interceded.

"It's more than an hour late. If Your Majesty is here, you will have to take another book of arrogance."

"Erchen went home and packed his bags before he came to see his father."

Zhu Gaochi did not continue this topic, but said: "Gao Xu, this trip has been hard. You have conquered the Western Regions from Jiayuguan. Throughout the ages, you can be called No. 1. Even the Protectorate of the Western Regions in the Tang Dynasty is far behind you. His Majesty will reward you greatly for your achievements."

Zhu Gaojiu's award is not something he can decide.

"Zhanyi, you did a very good job this time. You broke the Tatar-Chagatai coalition. Now it has been compiled into a drama. Everyone calls you a young hero. You have also done a good job, Northwest China. Not only have we won the war and the Silk Road has restarted, but the economy and people's livelihood of Suzhou and Ganzhou have also grown significantly this year, which has never happened before during the war."

"Father, it's what sons should do." The two saluted respectfully.

What Zhu Gaochi is most satisfied with is Zhu Zhanchang. Things are handled in an orderly manner. Except for another concubine, he can't seem to find any shortcomings.

"Regarding the reward for the two of you, His Majesty is still on the way back, but he has already ordered someone to send a message back and make an exception."

Hearing this news, only Zhu Gaojiu was not very happy at the scene.

The emperor's son was crowned king, the prince's son was crowned king, and now the prince's two sons should not be four. Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Zhanyong will soon be back from the Northern Expedition, and they will both be crowned kings. What does that mean?
It means that the prince's position is stable.

But Zhu Gaojiu can't express any opinion on the matter now, he just said with some resentment: "Brother, if there is nothing else, I will go first, and let Zhanyi and Zhanyi tell you the report."

"Alright, Gao Xu, you've worked hard, go back and have a good rest, and then hold a celebratory dinner after His Majesty returns in two days."

When Zhu Gaojiu left, the father and son started talking.

"This battle is certain, the world will return to your heart, and the surrounding countries will no longer threaten Daming. The territory of Daming is ten thousand miles away, and your grandfather should also take heart."

Zhu Di finally became the emperor he most wanted to be through the ages. This achievement is unique to the ages, and it is comparable to Emperor Qin and Han Wu.

"The news just came. Zhanji will arrive in about three days. Your Majesty should be able to catch up with the New Year within ten days. Zhanshang Zhanzhen is busy with many things in the palace. You two will take less breaks and help more. busy."

"Yes, father."

……

Ten days later, twenty li in the suburbs of Beijing, all the courtiers came out to greet him, the king and grandson stood all over the mountain, and the six officials were behind him. do not come in.

When the dragon chariot came slowly from a distance, everyone was a little excited, and their Emperor Ming came back.

Nine high-headed horses opened the way, escorted by the Imperial Army, and the eunuch arrived first.

"Emperor Daming is here, huh."

"Your Majesty, long live."

"Call again."

"Your Majesty, long live."

"Three calls."

"Your Majesty, long live, long live."

The sound of mountains and tsunamis resounded through the sky, and Zhu Di walked out of the dragon chariot, dressed in a military uniform. Compared with the dragon robe, he obviously preferred this war clothes.

The world surrenders, everyone admires it, and all men are envious when they see this scene.

Zhu Di looked around with falcon-like eyes and laughed: "Okay, okay, okay."

"Zhao Zhao Da Ming, Heaven serves all nations.

The ancestors obeyed the order, and the four sects followed the order.

The Quartet comes to the DPRK, and all the countries congratulate you.

Heaven should be boundless, and the world should be at peace. "

Zhu Di recited a few sentences, which were modified according to He Zhizhang of the Tang Dynasty.

"God bless China, what a prosperous age." Zhu Di's voice was full of energy, shocking people's hearts.

"God Bless Your Majesty, Zhao Zhao is prosperous."

Zhu Di looked at his own country with satisfaction, and all he could see was the Ming Dynasty. He sighed in relief. He understood that after today, you can write the history books as you like. This ancient achievement, how future generations write it is a rich stroke. The throne, this world should be his Zhu Di.

"I, I want to ride a horse again." Zhu Di said suddenly.

"Father, my son has seized a horse in the Western Regions this time. If the father wants to ride a horse, it can be used."

It was a very handsome horse with blood and sweat, and it was the best horse of the Chagatai Khanate.

Zhu Di looked at the steed, and reached out to touch its golden fur: "Good horse, good horse."

He is not as strong as he used to be. In the past, he could mount a horse when he turned over, but now a eunuch leaned over to make a horse stool, and he stepped on his back before getting on the horse.

"Remember when you rode the horse and whip with me back then?"

"Today will end at the city gate, and you will ride with me again."

As soon as Zhu Di's voice fell, Zhu Gaojiu, Zhu Gaojiu, Zhu Zhanji, Zhu Zhanxi, and Zhu Zhanchang all got on the horse, riding all sweaty horses.

"Father, this time in the Western Regions, my riding skills have improved a lot." Zhu Gaojiao said with a smile.

"drive."

Without further ado, the horse galloped, and Zhu Di took the lead on the horse.

But gradually everyone found that Zhu Di's speed had slowed down. As he got old, he couldn't keep up with his physical strength. He stopped before he reached the city gate, and the others also stopped.

"Old, old, I won't be able to outrun you in the future." Zhu Di patted the horse's neck. Under the winter sun, the sweaty BMW after exercise, with obvious muscle lines, really like bleeding.

"Lord Han, come here."

"My son is here."

Zhu Di said earnestly: "Lord Han, you have made such a big contribution this time, what reward do you want?"

"Father, the sons do not dare."

"Change your fief, seal the land of Zhejiang and Fujian."

"Thank you, son."

These are the two most prosperous places except Yingtian Prefecture, Shuntian Prefecture and Guangzhou Prefecture, all of which were given to Zhu Gaojiu, how could Zhu Gaojiu be unhappy.

"Gao Sui, the one who understands our heart the most, you should stay in Shuntian Mansion."

"Yes, Emperor Father." Zhu Gaojiu didn't get any reward, because he didn't get much credit for this campaign, but he was delayed in delivering supplies for Zhu Di.

"Zhanji, now everyone in Daming compares you to Huo Qubing of Daming. Huo Qubing is a hussar general. At this time, Emperor Wu of Han created it for Huo Qubing, with a golden seal and a purple sash, and you are the same as the third prince. You are the grandson, so I will not grant it. You are nothing of gold and silver, and I have granted you the title of General Hanhai, who will never be used in the future."

From the level of the emperor, to equate Zhu Zhanji with Huo Qubing's achievements, the inescapable achievements that Zhu Zhanji wanted have arrived.

"Thank you, Grandpa."

"Zhanxi, you have smashed the Tatar Chagatai coalition, and you have made great contributions. Zhanyong, you went on an expedition with Zhanji, took the lead and fought bravely. You are my good grandson. From today onwards, both of you will feudal lands. The scale of the king is the same." Although there is no king, the actual rights are the same.

"Thank you, Grandpa."

Zhu Di is a minister who has made great contributions to the world. First, I will reward these royal people who have made great contributions this time.

Finally, it was Zhu Zhanchang's turn.

"Zhanchang, you have done a good job in the northwest. Whether it's new weapons, or taking care of people's livelihood, you have done a very good job in combat readiness and supplies. You have the ability to supervise the country. What do you think I should reward you."

Zhu Zhanchang smiled and didn't speak. He knew that Zhu Di was a person who kept his promises.

Zhu Di looked at him with deep eyes, and said, "I allow you to set up three-year compulsory education in Yingtian Prefecture and Shuntian Prefecture, imitating Guangzhou Prefecture, to enlighten the people of the world. Three-year compulsory education is my national policy of Ming Dynasty. To open a university, I allow books like [Origin] to be published."

Everyone was stunned. Zhu Di thought that the book of origins had punished Zhu Zhanchang, but now it is allowed to be published.

Zhu Zhanchang saluted respectfully: "Grandson Xie Huang grandfather."

If Ming wants to prosper forever, and Huaxia wants to prosper forever, it is necessary to change the status quo of learning.

……

In the courtyard of the Prince's Mansion in Zhujiang County in the city, a dispatch letter sealed with lacquer was waiting for Zhu Zhanchang to open a secret letter from Dongying.
