Daming heir

In front of Hongwu Gate.

All the officials knelt down and there was silence.

Sun Gou'er's face was expressionless, and he didn't show any reaction when he saw so many civil and military officials kneeling in front of him.

On the contrary, the few servants following him showed a bit of excitement on their faces.

These are the humerus pillars of the Ming Dynasty.

Sun Gou'er shook his shoulders, slowly opened his arms, and placed the imperial edict in front of his eyes.

"I heard that Brother Sheng and Jiujiang are back. With the blessing of the emperor, my son and son at home have finished their errands and have come back in full shape. My heart dropped."

The emperor's will always seems to have no fixed format, but it has a very distinct personal color.

Chang Sheng and Li Jinglong raised their heads slightly and glanced at the lofty Hongwu Sect.

The two people's eyes were already a little more moved.

Their fathers followed the emperor and established the current country.

They all left this world early.

The emperor of the Ming Dynasty valued friendship and loyalty, far beyond what the previous kings could compare with.

Although they had grown up by then, the emperor still cared for them as close as his nephews.

It’s not that there are no generals in the court who are capable of conquering and fighting, nor is it that the country needs juniors like them to rush forward.

But the imperial court still gave them a huge errand and asked them to do the related things.

This is trust beyond caring.

Sun Gouer glanced at Chang Sheng and Li Jinglong and gave him a look of relief, while he continued to recite the imperial edict.

"Your fathers followed me, drove away the Yuan thieves, cleaned up the mountains and rivers, and reorganized the Central Plains. They never enjoyed the blessings. It is the legacy of your fathers that you, the younger generation, should bear.

It's just that in these years, as servants of the state, you have worn the armor of your fathers, held the swords of your fathers, and led the good men of the Ming Dynasty into battle to kill the enemy as before.

Great credit!

I will not forget, the court will not forget, the people will not forget, and the country will not forget.

All these courtesies are intended to wash away the dust from both of you.I'm going to the palace to rest today, and I'm going to have a good meeting with you tomorrow. I want to reward you.Everything is safe at home, you two don't need to worry.

I thought that your trip was very hard, so I went to the palace to take a break today and leave the military formation for a while. I was afraid that I might feel uncomfortable, so I took off my armor and saber to comfort you and the other two. "

As the chief steward of the inner palace who has followed the emperor for decades, Sun Gouer is very familiar with how to express the emperor's will clearly.

His words were almost as eloquent as the emperor himself speaking in person.

Chang Sheng and Li Jinglong were lying on the ground, their shoulders trembling.

There was a faint sound of sobbing.

The officials in front of the Hongwu Gate also understood the emperor's lengthy expression of emotion.

In summary, the emperor understood the difficulties of Chang Sheng and Li Jinglong, and also knew their contribution.

In order to take care of the two of them and show their contribution to opening up territories thousands of miles away, they were even more gracious and allowed them to enter the palace with swords after removing their armor.

Enter the palace with a sword.

What an honor this is.

Throughout the ages, probably only those treacherous and powerful officials could do such a thing after taking control of the court and holding the king hostage.

now.

The founder of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Hongwu, based on his imperial grace, allowed Chang Sheng and Li Jinglong to enter the palace with swords.

Everyone couldn't help but look at Chang Sheng and Li Jinglong in front of Hongwu Gate.

The ones with more eyes were staring at the two sabers at their waists, which were supposed to be used to complete the etiquette of unloading the swords before entering the Hongwu Sect.

These two knives may only be kept in front of the two mansions in the future.

Sun Gou'er put away the imperial edict, his eyes fixed, his body motionless, he just held the imperial edict and waved it out.

Immediately, a young chamberlain came forward and held the imperial edict in his hands.

At this time, Sun Gouer's face showed a smile.

He nodded and bowed, taking small steps forward to Chang Sheng and Li Jinglong.

"Two gentlemen, please get up quickly."

Chang Sheng and Li Jinglong were motionless, but the ground under their faces was already wet.

Sun Gouer bent down again and dragged his hands under their arms.

"This is your majesty's trust and your majesty's favor. I will never dare to disobey you. Listen to your majesty, let's have a good rest tonight. Tomorrow will be the time for the glory of the two gentlemen."

As he spoke, Sun Gouer used a little more force on his hands.

After that, Chang Sheng and Li Jinglong didn't dare to waste Sun Gou'er's strength, and then stood up with their legs up.

Then Sun Gouer led Chang Sheng and Li Jinglong into Hongwu Gate.

At this point, most of the officials were no longer qualified to enter the Hongwu Gate and had to go back to the Yamen to deal with the state affairs that would never be finished.

Ren Hengtai, Xie Jin and the others followed behind in a leisurely manner.

Zhu Xi walked in front of several people.

Behind them are Ren Hengtai and Xie Jin.

Xu Yungong, on the other hand, pulled the new cabinet minister Zhai Shan and walked at the back.The two people were shoulder to shoulder, heads to head, and they didn't know what they were talking about.

Entered Hongwumen.

Zhu Xi's steps slowed down.

Xie Jin felt something in his heart and glanced sideways at Ren Hengtai beside him, then quickly stepped forward and caught up with His Highness King Qin who deliberately slowed down his pace.

One of Zhu Xiang's hands hung on his chest and rubbed in a circle.

"Jiege wants to build a railway to connect the Central Plains to the Western Regions. This is also a state matter, not the personal gain of Jiege."

"This is something everyone knows."

"The king knows it, the courtiers know it, and His Majesty and the Crown Prince know it."

Jie Jin frowned slightly and couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "I also know that this move will cost the country a lot of money and food, but this is something that is really beneficial to the country. Why can't it be completed? Even if it costs too much, , you can also plan it slowly and repair it inch by inch."

"When did I, Ming, do things like this?"

Zhu Ping kept walking, but turned his head and asked Jie Jin with a smile.

Xie Jin fell silent.

The Ming Dynasty always acted in an upright and resolute manner.

Zhu Chong said again: "Promise it with benefit, and know it with righteousness. The word benefit must have been clearly thought out by Xie Ge. But the word righteousness has another explanation."

Xie Jin followed closely behind, bowed his head and said, "I bow to ask."

"I heard that in the past, there were white-haired old soldiers in the former Tang Dynasty who had been guarding the Western Regions for forty years, waiting for the king's army to return. But I don't know what the Western Regions are like now and in the past."

"I also know that the powerful Han Dynasty prospered in the Tang Dynasty and was famous for its Western Regions. Now if the Ming Dynasty creates an era of sage and Ming Dynasty, will the king sit down and have the territory of the Western Regions?"

"The officials of the Han Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty controlled thousands of miles in the west with swords and swords, and the envoys could travel thousands of miles with a staff. Now, do the officials of the Ming Dynasty have any intentions?"

Xie Jin's brows never relaxed.

These principles actually make sense.

However, he felt that even so, he still could not convince the court and the king.

Zhu Xi smiled slightly: "I, the Ming Dynasty, have always upheld the principle that I will not offend others unless they offend me. But what if someone insists on offending me?"

Having said this, Zhu Xi did not stop and walked quickly towards the palace.

This time, I was brought back by someone sent by the old man.

I left the palace today because I happened to be in Beijing.Now that the matter is done, he has to continue kneeling outside the gate of Qianqing Palace.

As for whether Jie Jin understood what he said, this is not a question that Zhu Ping needs to think about.

If he, the second assistant in the Ming Dynasty cabinet, couldn't even understand such words.

Zhu Fang felt that there was no need to build that railway.

Looking at King Qin who was walking faster and faster, he looked at the Meridian Gate which was already close in front of him.

Xie Jin's eyes gradually took on a different charm.

He naturally understood what King Qin said.Xie Jin's pace gradually slowed down.

"Why doesn't Xie Ge leave?"

Xu Yungong, who was still huddled together, looked at the reflection in front of him, raised his head and stared at Jie Jin who had stopped, with a trace of confusion on his face.

Jie Jin gradually laughed.

He turned to look at Zhai Shan beside Xu Yungong.

Zhai Shan rolled his eyes. He knew in his heart that Xie Jin was almost dizzy because of the railway matter these days.

Although I don't agree with it, there is no need to oppose it face to face.

Zhai Shan nodded and walked by with his hands in hand.

At this time, Xu Yungong didn't know what was going to happen, but he saw Jie Jin, who always treated others elegantly, actually stretched out his hand and put it on his shoulder.

"Wei Guogong."

"I'm here."

"Brother, something is going to trouble you this time!"

……

"You wear armor but don't pick bones!"

"I was busy and forgot..."

"You wear armor but don't pick bones!"

"It must have been intentional..."

"You wear armor but don't pick bones!"

"I'll buy you a drink."

"You wear armor but don't pick bones!"

"I'll compensate you with a cart full of local specialties from the south..."

"You wear armor but don't pick bones!"

"Believe it or not, I'll beat you up?"

"You...Second Brother Chang is so talkative. We are all brothers. I will treat you to wine and meat later."

Sheji altar.

Under the night, Li Jinglong, who was originally chattering and aggressive because he saw Chang Sheng wearing armor at the dock outside the city during the day, with bones and dregs sandwiched between the gaps, now changed his face and became full of flattery.

Chang Sheng, who was folding his clothes, glanced at Li Jinglong with a frown, then sighed and sat on a chair nearby.

Li Jinglong looked at Chang Sheng a few times to make sure that the other party would not really punch him. Then he felt relieved and sat down opposite Chang Sheng.

"Your Majesty has shown you too much kindness today. You and I can no longer behave as we did in the past in the court."

Chang Sheng sat as still as a mountain, with a solemn expression.

Li Jinglong leaned back on his chair with a relaxed expression: "His Majesty said in his decree today that he will treat us as close as his nephews. Doesn't he expect us to enter the palace with swords in hand?"

As he spoke, he pointed to the two knives hanging on the side.

Chang Sheng shook his head: "Master of great achievements, have you never heard of this? His Majesty treats us like nephews and nephews. This cannot be false. We have not done anything wrong in the past relying on this kindness from our fathers. But now, It’s even more different.”

"what's the difference?"

Li Jinglong didn't care. He even put his legs on the armrests of the chair, looking extremely comfortable.

He raised his head, reached out and picked a few fruits placed on the table, and put them into his mouth.

He ate it into his stomach like he was swallowing a jujube.

Li Jinglong patted his stomach with both hands.

"Our Yingtian food must be delicious, but Yingzhou is such a crappy place that it makes our mouths taste bitter."

Chang Sheng stared at Li Jinglong deeply and said in a deep voice: "No one is perfect, and ministers cannot be like sages. I say this, don't you understand?"

Li Jinglong finally stopped being as dissolute as he was in Beijing.

He straightened up and sat upright in the chair.

"You mean, we will attract fear?"

Li Jinglong's expression also became serious, but he did not explain who he was afraid of.

Chang Sheng nodded, but then shook his head: "Such a thing will never happen in our Ming Dynasty. However, we ministers must think of this."

Li Jinglong sat forward a little and stared at Chang Sheng opposite: "What do you want to do? Brother Chang, you have the say. As a younger brother, of course I will listen to you."

Chang Sheng, who was originally frowning, smiled at this time.

"really?"

"Exactly!"

Chang Sheng stood up, walked to Li Jinglong, and put his hand on the other person's shoulder.

Li Jinglong's brows jumped.

"Second brother, what do you want to do?"

"Jiujiang, let me beat you up, second brother."

"Two... ah!"

That night.

The founding Duke Chang Sheng, who had returned full of glory and stayed in the imperial city according to the emperor's personal decree, suddenly got into a fight. For no apparent reason, he severely beat Cao Guogong Li Jinglong who had returned to the capital with him.

No one knows the reason, and no one knows how much effort the founding father used.

I just know that news spreads quickly.

Even though the palace door was locked, the news quickly spread to every household in Yingtiancheng in the dark night.

at the same time.

The other end of the founding Duke's office also sent a message that night.

From now on, the Chang family and the Li family are strangers. If they meet outside, the road will not give way and the bridge will not retreat. If they are not convinced, they will do it again.

In the dark night that followed, there was also a response from Duke Cao's mansion.

The Li family completely adopted the Chang family's tricks.

Because Chang Sheng beat Li Jinglong.

Inside the palace, it was still silent. The nobles stayed down to sleep one after another, and the imperial guards were on duty everywhere.

As Mr. Li's screams came from the Sheji Altar, the Imperial City moved upon hearing the sound, and the lights were brightly lit for a while.

The prince rushed over from the East Palace with a helpless expression.

The emperor rushed over from Qianqing Palace with a dark face and an angry stick.

When the two empire bosses arrived.

The Imperial Guards who had arrived early to separate Duke Founding and Duke Cao withdrew.

Zhu Yuanzhang stared, banging the stick on the ground constantly, and scanned the room in front of him.

Although it was originally a simple house, it was also expensive to build, and now it is also in a mess.

The objects arranged here are scattered on the ground.

After looking around, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the two people in front of him.

Chang Sheng was kneeling on the ground, while Li Jinglong was lying on the ground.

The emperor's face was covered with black lines, and he gritted his teeth and uttered each word from his mouth.

"Okay!"

"Okay!"

"It's really good!"
