Daming: At the start of the showdown, Lao Zhu was stunned

Chapter 125

Xu Da and Li Wenzhong blushed immediately after Lao Zhu's bloody fight.Li Wenzhong screamed excitedly, shouting that he would expand another three thousand miles for Daming.It doesn't matter whether you can seal the princes or kings, the main thing is to spread the glory of the Han people to the sky.It is best to build all the grasslands like Guannei with Han people's cities, so as to eliminate the danger of captivity for the Ming Dynasty forever.

Xu Da also expressed his loyalty, expressing his willingness to continue to show his glory and enthusiasm for Daming and His Majesty the great emperor.Lao Zhu asked everyone present not to reveal this matter, and the subsequent talks proceeded smoothly in a harmonious atmosphere. It was not until several hours later that Xu Dafang got up to say goodbye and left Zhuangzi.

Li Wenzhong also retreated.Only Lao Zhu and the Zhu brothers were left in the hall.Seeing that there were no outsiders, Zhu Di finally couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, and asked timidly, "Father...Father."

"You said just now that you want to establish feudal vassals outside the territory and follow the example of the Zhou Dynasty to establish vassal states to expand the territory of China."

"Then... can my child also establish a feudal domain outside the territory?"

"Why, you still want to hide in the customs?" Old Zhu frowned. "Is this the only thing you can do? Let Xu and Li make contributions? Are you enjoying wealth and honor in the pass?"

"What's the matter!" Zhu Di quickly denied, his face flushed red. "My son can't wait to take people to build a feudal clan outside the Guan now! No other place is needed, so let's build the feudal land in Helin!"

Helin is the current governing place of Beiyuan.Building the feudal land in Helin means taking the destruction of the Yuan court as its own responsibility.Old Zhu nodded, very satisfied with Zhu Di's ambition.

In history, these four sons were extremely tough when they were emperors, and Lao Zhu was very satisfied with this.Therefore, there is no doubt about Zhu Di's words.

"It's just..." Zhu Di was imagining about feudal feudal lordship, while Zhu Bing beside him was frowning with a pensive look. "Father, my child thinks that establishing a feudal domain outside the territory may be quite difficult."

"If you want to establish a feudal domain, you don't have to be able to do it with a strong military. I think you have to bring a lot of Han people in the pass."

"Da Ming has a lot of waste to do now, and I fear there will be no spare power..."

"So what? This generation has no spare capacity, so Biaoer will do it. If Biaoer can't do it, then let the heroic child in your sister-in-law's belly do it!" Old Zhu glared at Zhu Yan.

"If you want your own fiefdom, you should work hard and go outside to fight for it! Want to eat what we have earned? There is no way!"

Zhu Yan's complexion turned pale when he was overwhelmed by these words.He really didn't want to go abroad to build a feudal clan.The thought of getting along with those savages who couldn't read made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

Old Zhu saw through his excuses at a glance.

When Lao Zhu went on tour in his micro-clothes, he must go to the field to see.Zhu Xun was not allowed to follow, and Lao Zhu only let Zhu Su accompany him.Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhu Su said to Lao Zhu: "Father, in fact, what the third brother said is quite right."

"It's still early now, so you rashly mentioned the establishment of a feudal domain outside the territory to Uncle Xu, isn't it a little too hasty?"

"And establishing a feudal domain outside the territory... What we said before, didn't we first seek the Three Kingdoms?"

"Hmph, your only appetite is to win the Three Kingdoms?" Lao Zhu looked at Zhu Su and smiled. "Don't think we don't know, when you look at those places outside the domain, your eyes will pop out."

"Especially the Americas... that is a god-given land that can produce god seeds, and it is far away from China, so only Jianfan can completely control it."

"Since enfeoffment is restarted, it might as well restart it thoroughly." Old Zhu said.

"You want to say that I, Ming Dynasty, have enough power now to annex the three kingdoms, and that building a feudal domain outside the territory is no different from a castle in the air, don't you?" Seeing that Zhu Su hesitated to speak, Old Zhu himself said what Zhu Su was thinking. out.

Zhu Su nodded.He believed that it was not a long-term plan for Lao Zhu to coax Xu Da with this matter.

Xu Da is old after all.In his lifetime, could he really rely on the residual heat of this body to become such a prince?
"We did it as a last resort... Do you know that our Ming court has become a mess?"

Zhu Su was taken aback.He really didn't know about it.During the Hongwu period, did you hear of any serious party disputes?
"You don't have to worry about this matter. You just need to know that if the court wants to integrate the nobles, it still needs the power of heaven." Lao Zhu waved his hand.By the way, he turned his head and gave Zhu Di who was in the distance a hard look, which made Zhu Di who was sitting under the chair startled, not knowing why.

"Speaking of which, it's also the mess made by the fourth child."

"He refused the marriage, causing rumors between the government and the public, and Tiande had no choice but to..."

Zhu Su scratched his head, it seemed that the government and the opposition needed Xu Da to come forward, but Xu Da had to protect himself wisely because of the fact that he was an extremely powerful minister and because of the rumors caused by Zhu Di's refusal to marry.

That's why Lao Zhu didn't hesitate to promise him with his position as a prince and king, and confessed to Xu Da that he would not let a rabbit die like a dog.With An Xuda's heart, let him come forward to preside over the situation...

The affairs of the government are really twists and turns...Zhu Su shook his head, and if he couldn't figure it out, he would stop thinking about it.Anyway, just live your own life.

"Has the cement and fine steel you mentioned earlier been developed?" Old Zhu asked him.

"It's early! There are not enough manpower and funds, and I can't cut it in half!" Zhu Su deliberately wept.Just took this opportunity to ask Lao Zhu for some scientific research funds. "Father, can you allocate some more money and food to me? Now the warehouse has bottomed out..."

"Cry poor to us at the household department in the palace, and you cry poor to us when you come out to relax!" Old Zhu laughed amusedly. "You recruited so many people from Bao'er just to waste money and food? We set aside such a large farm for you to support, and you still have the nerve to ask us for money?"

"It seems that you, a time traveler, have limited means!"

Zhu Su looked ashamed.I was also a little surprised in my heart.Lao Zhu is in the deep palace of Jiuchong, so he knows the reasons behind his lack of money and food so well.

But Lao Zhu was right.Deep in my heart, I have always been proud of myself as a time traveler.Looking at the natives of the Ming Dynasty, it is inevitable that they unconsciously have a sense of superiority like looking at bumpkins.

I only thought about recruiting more people, but never thought about the balance between income and expenditure.Even in my previous life, I was just an ordinary commoner in the final analysis. It might be okay to rely on the instilled knowledge to guide the country, but it would be timid to actually do practical things.

Zhu Su was silent, and Lao Zhu saw that he was ashamed, so he didn't speak.The father and son walked silently along the ridges of the field. Seeing them approaching, several farmers flinched and hesitated whether they should salute or not.

"You've been here for so long? The farmers in the village don't even recognize you?" Looking at those farmers who hesitated for a while, and finally turned and left, Lao Zhu was furious. "It's the first time you've arrived, but you didn't call the farmers together, let them get to know each other well, and win people's hearts by the way?"

"No." Zhu Su looked blank.

Old Zhu hesitated, and was immediately laughed angrily by Zhu Laowu. "You summoned so many military households, how did you arrange them?"

"I allocated the land to them, and Xiangdeng is in charge of everything in the village." Zhu Su lacked confidence.He will be drilled by Li Wenzhong in the morning, and he will be busy instructing the craftsmen on the steel furnace and cement kiln in the afternoon.Busy feet do not touch the ground, in his opinion, this Zhuangzi is just a cover.How can I have time to take care of Zhuangzi's affairs?
"Stupid!" Old Zhu scolded Zhu Su with a serious face.
