Daming Greedy Wolf Star

Chapter 475 The inscription, either sings praises, or affirms warnings, never forgets
There is no such thing as in the novels and TV dramas of later generations, which say that children have a feeling of being connected by blood from birth, at least Zhu Zhanhe does not, he just feels a little strange in his heart.

Rather than saying it is connected by blood, it is better to say that it is the first time when I officially face the role of father. It is a very novel and strange feeling.

"How is it?" Princess Wu looked at her son lovingly.

"How does it feel to be a father?"

"Feeling?" Zhu Zhanhe hugged the child carefully as if he was holding a landmine.

"Okay……"

"All right, all right, you're not like your father at all in this regard." The kindness on Princess Wu's face disappeared, replaced by sullen white eyes.

"When you were born, your father was on the battlefield just like you, but your father was different from you. When he got off the battlefield, he hugged you like he was playing with a sword and played with you. It's better for you..."

As she said that, Concubine Wu gave the father and son a big look.

"What are you afraid of? This is your child! You look like you are holding something that can kill people."

……

Zhu Zhanhe shrugged innocently: "Isn't this inexperienced? Where have I experienced this?"

"Go, go! Go aside!"

Seeing that the child started to wriggle because Zhu Zhanhe was holding him in the wrong position, Princess Wu knew that the child was about to cry, so she quickly pushed Zhu Zhanhe aside and snatched the child away.

"All right, all right, leave this matter to your mother, you'd better think about the child's name."

Zhu Gaoxu also felt that his son's appearance was a little funny, so he pulled his son to sit down.

"Name..." Zhu Zhanhe followed his father's strength and sat down, looking at the teacup in front of him thoughtfully.

"Yes, name." Zhu Gaoxu nodded.

"Originally, I was thinking of giving one, but after thinking about it, let's forget it. Our father and son have many different thoughts. After all, it is your child. What kind of expectations and prospects do you have for him? It's your business, I'm not as good as you in this respect."

"So, I'd better leave this name to you."

Zhu Zhanhe didn't look up either, just quietly looked at the teacup in front of him, as if he was attracted by the teacup.

When the Zhu family chose a name, it was easy to say, and it was not easy to say that it was not good.

Taizu Gao Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang has long established the rules for naming the descendants of the Zhu family. For example, the original prince Zhu Biao's lineage is "Yunwen obeys the ancestor's precepts, Qinwu Dajun wins, and it is auspicious to meet auspiciousness, Shiliang is good at using Sheng". ".

As for the lineage of Emperor Taizong, it is "Gao Zhan Qi Jianyou, Hou Zai Yi Chang You, Ci He Yi Bo Zhong, Jian Jing Di Xian You".

It goes without saying that the surname is Zhu.

With the rules of Emperor Taizu Gao, in the generation of Zhu Zhanhe's son, the second character of the name is Qi, such as the name of the orthodox emperor Zhu Qizhen.

Therefore, what Zhu Zhanhe wanted to think about was the third character of the name, and there were rules for the third character.

Emperor Taizu Gao made a rule that the last character of the names of Zhu's descendants should follow the law of the five elements.

The five elements are born together. "Chunqiu Fanlu · The Meaning of the Five Elements" says: "Wood is the beginning of the five elements", so the son of Emperor Gaozu of Taizu has the word "wood" next to the last word of his name, such as Zhu Biao, Zhu Di, etc. .

By the third generation, that is, Zhu Gaoxu's generation, wood made fire, and characters with fire as the radical had to be adopted.

For example, Zhu Gaochi's Chi, Zhu Gaosui's Sui, and Zhu Gaozhen's Bo are all next to the word Huo. As for the only special Zhu Gaoxu, it seems unreasonable but actually it is reasonable.

The radical of the character Xu seems to be the base of the character for water, which is not only unrelated to fire but also incompatible with fire, but in fact, when the character for Xu is disassembled, the base of the character for water, which is originally a radical, is also a separate character, which is 灬.

灬, the same as fire in ancient times, refers to the light and flames emitted by objects when they burn.

Later, fire begets earth, that is, Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Zhanhe, who use earth as a radical, and then earth begets gold.

Characters with gold as the radical...

Zhu Zhanhe had a quick brainstorm in his mind, and then he raised his head suddenly, his eyes were shining brightly.

"Have you figured it out?" Zhu Gaoxu hurriedly said when he saw this.

"Well, I've thought about it." Zhu Zhanhe nodded with a smile, dipped his hand into the water in the teacup, and wrote a word on the table.

"This is... Ming?" Zhu Gaoxu looked at his son, a little puzzled, but also somewhat clear.

"Well, inscriptions, the words engraved on utensils, some praise merits and virtues, some proclaim warnings, and they will never be forgotten."

"Whether it's good to sing praises of merit, or affirm warnings, I paved the way for him. This inscription, I hope he can remember the glory of his ancestors, and be vigilant at all times, not forgetting the mission of the Zhu family's descendants."

"Ming...Zhu Qiming..." Zhu Gaoxu nodded slightly, he felt pretty good.

"Yes, it conforms to the rules of the ancestors, and the meaning is not bad, so it's settled?"

"That's it." Zhu Zhanhe turned his head and looked into the house, although he couldn't see anything, he still looked straight at the door.

"This child may be of mediocre talent, he may have chosen it himself, or he may not have chosen it himself, but since he was born in our Zhu family, in our lineage, and became my son, then There is no choice."

"Actually, I don't want to force this on him, but..."

Having said that, Zhu Zhanhe turned his head and looked at his own face reflected in the teacup in front of him, with a somewhat self-pitying tone.

"There is no way..."

"Yeah..." Zhu Gaoxu also let out a long sigh when he heard the words.

"There is no way..."

……

This generation of the Zhu family, like Emperor Taizong's lineage, had no choice.

Perhaps what the old monk said back then was right. Sooner or later, the hands of the Zhu family will still be stained with the blood of the Zhu family.

……

That night.

Zhu Zhanhe stood in front of the window, looking at the sky outside through the newly replaced glass windows of the palace.

In fact, he has never liked coming back, because as long as he comes back, he has to face some things that he doesn't want to face.

Compared to facing internal battles, he still prefers to fight in Europe, and he likes the feeling that he can kill without any scruples, without any consequences.

But now...

Zhu Zhanhe tilted his head slightly, looked at Hu Shanshu who was sleeping soundly behind him, and then looked at Zhu Qiming who was on the small bed next to him.

Now...it's not the same as before.

……

People, especially men, often mature in a flash, and this flash is usually some kind of change.

Either the death of a loved one, or the dedication of relatives and friends, or a moment of enlightenment.

For Zhu Zhanhe, the birth of his son made him start to imagine the future and pave the way for the future.

……

The next day, early in the morning.

Glancing at his wife who was still sleeping beside him, Zhu Zhanhe got up and got out of bed lightly.

After a simple wash, Zhu Zhanhe changed his clothes and tied his hair in the side room.

"His Royal Highness, Chen Shangshu and others have arrived and are waiting in the side hall."

"His Royal Highness King Wu has already completed the integration of the affairs during your departure from Beijing, and put them in your study last night."

"There is also the matter of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, because it only made a few small moves in the Eastern European battlefield and did not attack the Central Plains, so His Highness King Wu is not in a hurry to deal with it, but wants to wait for you to come back to get a charter."

Zhu Gaoxu's personal guard, Zhu Heng, stood behind Zhu Zhanhe, holding a pamphlet in his hand, and reported all the things during this period to Zhu Zhanhe, especially some things that need to be dealt with urgently.

For example, the Eastern Chagatai Khanate.

"After the accident happened in the Eastern European battlefield, did the Eastern Chagatai Khanate take any action?" Zhu Zhanhe asked while letting the maid tie his hair.

"For example, arming the border areas of the Central Plains or other places, or sending people to Beijing, etc."

"His Royal Highness, not yet." Zhu Heng put away the booklet in his hand, and replied with a bow.

"I see."

The palace lady just tied up Zhu Zhanhe's hair, bowed and retreated, Zhu Zhanhe also stood up, and walked towards the outside of the hall.

"The official documents from the beginning of the changes in the Eastern European battlefield to the present, especially those on the border areas of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, were sent to my study."

"Zhu Ling, Zhu Ping, call Chen Xun to the study."

"Yes……"

……

study.

Zhu Zhanhe held a bowl of porridge in his hand, and looked at the official documents in front of him while drinking.

He has read a part of it here. Zhu Heng sorted it out in advance and placed it at the far end. In front of Zhu Zhanhe are the official documents related to the Eastern Chagatai Khanate that he asked for by name. These are important documents such as taxes from various places in the past two years, and on the left are some relatively unimportant official documents.

For example, mining matters in various places in Xiangzhou Prefecture, and the consumption of the Ming army stationed in Wa Kingdom.

"Chen Xun." Zhu Zhanhe put down the porridge bowl in his hand, and pushed out an official document.

"Who is the current garrison general over the Kansai Seven Guards?"

Chen Xun heard that he took out a booklet from his sleeve, flipped through it a few times and found what he wanted.

"His Royal Highness, it was Xu Heng a year ago, and the last time he changed his defense was on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, and the general who changed his defense was Li Bin."

Frontier garrison, especially the Kansai Seven Guards near the Eastern Chagatai Khanate, is a very important thing.

The East Chagatai Khanate has been making small moves, and the seven guards in Kansai are not very safe. In order to prevent accidents, the generals stationed are basically Li Bin and Xu Heng, because they are the only two who belong to the lineage of King Wu. The most trusted general.

Hmm... It should be said that among the military generals currently in Beijing, the two of them are the most worthy of the trust of King Wu's lineage.

"Tell them that you can put some pressure appropriately, such as embarrassing the businessmen of the Eastern Chagatai Khanate passing through the Kansai Qiwei."

"It's okay to ask for cards, but pay attention to the impact and let them have their own limits."

"Yes." Chen Xun bowed his head in response.

Some things in the dark are actually impossible to be completely eliminated, and Zhu Zhanhe doesn't care about those people filling their pockets appropriately, as long as it is not too much, Zhu Zhanhe still allows it.

After all, people in this era are more realistic than later generations, and the biggest purpose of striving to climb up is to enjoy the happiness of family members and future generations.

"Northern grasslands..." Pushing the document on the East Chagatai Khanate and the Seven Guards of Kansai to Chen Xun, Zhu Zhanhe took out another official document.

"Previously, the first emperor led his army to a decisive battle with Oara. According to the agreement between the two parties in the decisive battle at that time, Oara should retreat to the area north of the Onan River."

"When spring comes, let the Ministry of Industry send some people to the grassland to build a few guards there in the name of building a horse farm for grazing and raising horses."

"As for the number of people stationed, it doesn't need to be too many. Let's temporarily designate four guards. The number of people stationed is 4. After all, it is in the name of raising horses and grazing."

"However, after the establishment of the guardhouse, once the phenomenon of Oala people grazing across the border must be dealt with seriously, resisters can be executed on the spot, and those who surrender have their cattle and sheep confiscated, and they will be brought back and sent to Xiangzhou Prefecture for mining. No mercy!"

"Yes!" Chen Xun's heart trembled, but he was also a little excited.

Remember to eat but not to fight, maybe it is a human being, and maybe only a human being will try again and again in the minefield.

Although Emperor Xuande chose to put all his eggs in one basket for the sake of his son's orthodox emperor, it has to be said that it was effective, at least it drove Wala away.

However, after Zhu Zhanhe went to the European battlefield again, and the news of Emperor Xuande's death also spread to the grassland, the group of people who didn't remember to eat or fight started to move around again.

In the past two years, Zhu Zhanhe hadn't freed up his hands to deal with them, and Chen Xun and the others could only deploy troops to deploy defenses in emergencies, so they never cared about them.

Now Zhu Zhanhe has directly set the regulations, which means that there will be zero tolerance for Wala in the future.

"Besides, what's going on here?" Zhu Zhanhe pushed the letter related to Wala to Chen Xun, and there was another copy with that letter.

Chen Xun hurried over, only to find out that it was the paperwork of last year's labor examination.

"Returning to His Royal Highness, two people were screened out in the labor competition last year. The inventions of these two people who participated in the labor competition were very useful, but you said earlier that once those who participate in the labor competition are selected, they can be knighted. "

"It's also the first time for us in Ming Dynasty to hold a labor competition, and we don't have much experience in it, so we hold it back for the time being."

"You also said that before I said that once selected for Gongju, you can be knighted, why not?" Zhu Zhanhe looked at Chen Xun with a serious expression.

"His Royal Highness, is this title a bit..."

Zhu Zhanhe's tone was not very good, which made Chen Xun's heart pound.

But in fact, he can't be blamed for this, it can only be said that Zhu Zhanhe took this step too far.

Previously, everyone thought that Zhu Zhanhe was buying horse bones with a lot of money, and that he wanted to obtain inventions such as cannons and white phosphorous eggs through the method of engineering.

Logically speaking, an invention of this level is enough to be knighted. After all, Daming now has a deep understanding of the importance of firearms.

However, except for Zhu Zhanhe, almost everyone, including Zhu Gaoxu, felt that it was not appropriate to confer the title.

This is mainly due to the particularity of the title of the Ming Dynasty.

There are two types of titles in the Ming Dynasty: the clan and the relatives. The clan has nothing to do with this matter, it is mainly the knighthood system of the relatives.

For a long time, the title system of Gonghou Bozinan has continued for a long time, and it continued in the same way in the early Ming Dynasty, but later the Ming Dynasty abolished the viscount and baron, that is to say, since then, Daming has only three titles of Duke and Duke.

Zhu Zhanhe said before that anyone who is selected in the Gongju can be knighted, and according to the rules of Ming Dynasty, if he is knighted, he starts as an earl.

This starting point is a bit high.

In addition, Daming has other rules for conferring titles, for example, "No one can be conferred unless he has made military achievements in the country, and the title cannot be granted unless it is a special order."

In other words, under normal circumstances, unless it is military merit, and it is still a very large military merit, you can be knighted.

Because of this reason, the matter of the labor examination was delayed for more than half a year, and it was not settled until Zhu Zhanhe came back.
