Alliance of the Heavens and Ming Dynasty

"Let's eat!"

Zhu Houzhao greeted everyone, but still no one moved their chopsticks.

At a time like this, who has the heart to eat.

Zhu Houzhao poured himself a glass of wine and looked at Zhu Qiyuan: "After dad leaves, Daming will depend entirely on you. With your current ability, you can control Daming without causing trouble. Dad just reminds you."

"I'm gone, you can slow down the pace of developing no-man's land, and focus on broadening the wisdom of the people and cultivating talents."

Hearing that Zhu Houzhao was leaving his last words, Zhu Qiyuan's face became more sad: "Father"

Zhu Houzhao waved his hand, interrupted Zhu Qiyuan, and said: "In my generation, the Ming Dynasty has been fighting against the outside world, and the emperors are suspicious and plotting against each other. Even if I want to open up the wisdom of the people on a large scale, I have many concerns."

"Now that the Ming Dynasty is unified, everything has returned to peace. Broadening the wisdom of the people and cultivating talents is the most important thing. It is most appropriate for you to complete it."

"But remember, in the process of cultivating talents, ideological education is the first priority. Ideology is a kind of poison. If the talents cultivated are not correct, there will be endless disasters."

"Just like the Donglin Party, if their thoughts become the mainstream, will the talents they cultivate be loyal to Daming, or loyal to their own interests?"

It's not that Zhu Houzhao didn't think about building schools and cultivating talents all over the world. It's just that at that time, various dynasties coexisted, various schools of thought were rampant, and people with wrong views abounded.

The Zhedong Party, the Civil Service Group, and the Donglin Party are not only interest groups, but also schools of thought. They wantonly build schools, and the thinking of the students they cultivate must be influenced by such false doctrines.

He didn't want the talents he had cultivated to stab him in the back, and with the stable output of Sun Moon Academy, he was not short of people to use, so he put it on hold just now.

But it's different now. The Donglin Party and other schools have been suppressed by him and almost disappeared. Zhu Qiyuan also needs a big achievement to benefit the world. It is an excellent time to restart the talent training plan.

Don't look at Zhu Houzhao spreading martial arts all over the world, but in fact most of the low-level people are still illiterate. Even if they can make some famous martial arts, they can't reach a high level.

Therefore, it is particularly important to broaden the wisdom of the people.

"In your generation, do your best to cultivate talent accumulation, deepen the foundation of the Ming Dynasty, and open up the frontier and territory, and leave it to Kai'er to complete."

"One generation does the work of one generation. We have stabilized the fundamentals. Let time determine where the Ming Dynasty will go in the future!"

Zhu Qiyuan nodded: "Son will remember father's teaching."

Zhu Houzhao looked at Zhu Qinghuang and sighed: "The most regrettable thing in this life, Dad, is to let you learn swords from Ren Piaomiao, which caused your temper to become so cold."

"You have a cold temper, and it's easy to suffer in front of the complicated hearts of the world."

What worries him the most is this baby girl.

Zhu Qinghuang's temperament is simple and cold. If she was born in Jianghu Zongmen, she might be able to escape the world, but Zhu Qinghuang was born in the royal family, which is difficult. Sometimes people's hearts are the most terrifying.

Zhu Houzhao is not afraid of anything now, but he is afraid that after he leaves, his precious daughter will be plotted by others. In the whole Ming Dynasty, there are not a few people who play tricks on Zhu Qinghuang.

Was Li Shanchang's request for marriage really just a test of Zhu Houzhao's attitude towards the survivors of various dynasties?Not always.

Marriage with Zhu Houzhao is more beneficial than fighting against Zhu Houzhao.

"From now on, Daddy can no longer protect you, you must be careful in everything."

Zhu Houzhao told Zhu Qinghuang to pretend not to see Zhu Qinghuang's reddish eye sockets.

Zhu Qinghuang gritted her teeth lightly, but still tried not to cry, she knew that her father didn't want to see her cry.

The daughter was sad, and it hurt the old father's heart. Zhu Houzhao didn't even dare to look at Zhu Qinghuang, turned his head and told Zhu Qiyuan again: "Protect Qinghuang, whoever dares to make her wronged, destroy her directly."

"Don't worry, father, with my son here, I will never let my sister suffer any grievances."

Zhu Qiyuan patted his chest and assured, with murderous intent in his eyes.

Zhu Houzhao doted on Zhu Qinghuang, so why not him? When his brother and sister were in trouble, he would rather get hurt himself than let Zhu Qinghuang hurt a hair.

Anyone who dares to take Zhu Qinghuang's idea will have to try his elder brother's saber to see if his saber is sharp enough to kill people.

As long as Zhu Qinghuang is not willing, no one can force Zhu Qinghuang, this brother's promise.

Zhu Houzhao drank the wine in the glass in one sip, but he lost his taste, leaving only bitterness in his mouth. He looked at Zhu Kai, the eldest grandson whom he called "Yinguo class me", who cultivated with his own hands, and said with a complex expression: "Kai'er, think twice Then go ahead, don’t try to imitate me.”

Zhu Kai didn't know why.

Zhu Houzhao also didn't explain. Some things are enlightened, and if they can't be enlightened, it can only mean that the time has not come.

Zhu Kai is very similar to him, but Zhu Houzhao doesn't want Zhu Kai to be like him. In the end, there are very few people around who can talk.

It is true that the person in the top position is cruel and merciless, but there is still room for three points. Too cruel and ruthless, after all, is the fate of a lonely family.

His gaze passed over Changsun Wugou, Zhu Lie, Zhu Xiao, Zhu Ming, Tu Shanqingxue, and landed on Ying Feixue.

The eldest grandson Wugou, and Zhu Qiyuan are also husband and wife, and they sing harmoniously, but Zhu Hou did not behave kindly in that matter back then, and there is nothing to say.

Zhu Lie, Zhu Xiao, and Zhu Ming, when these three brothers were born, Zhu Houzhao was still participating in the battle to destroy the Heavenly Court. Apart from their blood, they were not close relatives.

In addition, Zhu Lie loves the art of merchants, Zhu Xiao is full of swords, and Zhu Ming is devoted to alchemy, but he is often not seen, and the relationship is very cold, and there is nothing to talk about.

If Tu Shanqingxue hadn't doted on his eldest grandson, with Zhu Houzhao's paranoia, how could he accept a fox girl as his grandson-in-law.

Looking at Ying Feixue, who had a cool and noble demeanor, who seemed more like sisters than mother and daughter to Zhu Qinghuang, Zhu Houzhao didn't know how to speak for a moment.

Traveling through Daming with each other, they have seen through the past, but there is still a sense of guilt in his heart.

Perhaps it was his conscience that discovered it. In the end, he, who has always been self-centered, had such a trace of regret.

Zhu Houzhao asked himself that he was worthy of anyone in his life, but he owed three women.

One is his mother, Empress Dowager Zhang. If he had been softer in dealing with things back then, Empress Dowager Zhang would not have regrets before she died.

The second one is the stupid woman who was ruthlessly sent to death after being used by him. He could save her, but he abandoned her mercilessly for the sake of his emperor's face.

The third one is Ying Feixue. As a husband, he is seriously unqualified. Even now, he doesn't know what Ying Feixue likes or dislikes.

"Take care of yourself."

Thousands of words, only one sentence "take care".

Zhu Houzhao didn't want to say anything about this life and the afterlife. I don't know if he has an afterlife. Even if there is an afterlife, he would not follow him if he wanted to win Feixue.

A man like him doesn't know how to talk about love, let alone how to please women.

Ying Feixue glanced at Zhu Houzhao silently. She was not sad or excited, but her heart was roaring like a river, tumbling endlessly, and it was difficult to calm down.

Her marriage with Zhu Houzhao was just a calculation. She thought she could face it calmly, but only then did she realize that it is not so easy to face.

After living under one roof for so many years, how can they have no feelings, but Zhu Houzhao, or Ying Feixue, they are too rational, so rational that they don't know how to express their feelings.

"Go back and leave me alone."

The table was full of delicacies and no one moved, Zhu Hou said in a waned mood that everything that should be explained has been explained, and he has nothing more to say.

Everyone left, leaving Zhu Houzhao alone to recall the past, feeling the vicissitudes of time and lamenting the impermanence of the world.

The high-spirited and high-spirited when first boarded the Dabao;

The anger when being treated as a puppet by the officials;
The helplessness when encountering many obstacles when you want to do great things;
The bewilderment after the first murder and Liwei.

The decisiveness to suppress the civil society;
Entering the Qiankun Pearl space for the first time, the joy when meeting the emperors of the Ming Dynasty;

After using that silly woman, giving her the trace of regret after death;

Life is like a huge picture scroll, constantly presenting all the things he has experienced in his mind.

Until the end, Zhu Houzhao suddenly discovered that the happiest thing in his life and what he was most proud of was not defeating the emperors of the Ming Dynasty and unifying the entire Ming Dynasty, nor participating in the destruction of the two giants of heaven and Buddhism.

It was when Zhu Qiyuan and Zhu Qinghuang brothers and sisters had just learned to speak and called out "Daddy" to him.

That was the moment when he laughed the most, the happiest, and the brightest in his life.

Perhaps it was also from that time that Zhu Qiyuan and Zhu Qinghuang became his lifeblood. He never liked his two siblings calling him "Father Emperor", but he liked hearing them call him "Father".

Maybe only in that friendly "Dad" can he feel that he is a human being, a living person, a living person who still has emotions and desires.

Not a cold, ruthless machine running crazily for power.

"Looking back suddenly, it doesn't matter whether it's the country or the imperial power, it doesn't matter anymore, it doesn't matter anymore."

Youyou sighed softly, full of so many complexities, maybe even he couldn't figure it out.
