Daming: If I find a great-grandson, I will teach an emperor through the ages

Chapter 64 Ancestors of Celebrities

It is reasonable to say that people grow old and become smart. A long life, a lot of experience and experiences make some old people see things clearly.

Zhu Yuanzhang is an outstanding man of his generation. At this age, he sees some things as clearly as the moon in the water.

Regardless of how the Lu family learned about Cao Ying, they sent people to investigate. This was a signal:
The Lu family does not want to see Cao Ying come back again!

But they were also very cautious, they didn't do anything out of the ordinary, and they still had some brains.

But for Zhu Yuanzhang, the fact that the Lu family went to test Cao Ying was already intolerable for him!
In this world, Zhu Yuanzhang will never allow anyone to hurt his grandson again!

Not to mention the Lu family, even all the civil and military ministers in the court combined were not as important as a hair of Cao Ying in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart!

Zhu Yuanzhang had hesitated before, whether he should choose Zhu Yunwen or Cao Ying as the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang really made a decision in his heart, and after weighing it, he finally understood the importance of Cao Ying!
He didn't have to think so much at all, Cao Ying was the most suitable candidate to be the second emperor of Ming Dynasty!No one can compare!
Zhu Yunwen may be considered the best among the other emperors and grandsons, but compared with Cao Ying, he is like a firefly and a bright moon.

It can be said that this trial by the Lu family made Zhu Yuanzhang see something clearly and strengthened his determination to choose Cao Ying.

The second emperor of Ming Dynasty must be Cao Ying!

The death of Prince Zhu Biao finally affected Zhu Yuanzhang, and today's incident really made him sober up.

Suddenly, he seemed to have found a new direction in his twilight years - to train Cao Ying to be his successor!
As for the Lu family... Zhu Yuanzhang only hoped that they would never do anything stupid!

"Send someone to inform Jiang Wei and add more people to guard Zhengkan Village." Zhu Yuanzhang ordered the eunuch chief beside him.

The latter responded and quietly left the imperial study room.

Zhu Yuanzhang also will not act rashly, he is a very experienced and patient hunter.

The Kongyin case and the Hu Weiyong case a few years ago, as well as the Lanyu case that originally existed in history books but had not yet occurred, have fully confirmed this point.

Either don't do it, or do it absolutely!This is Zhu Yuanzhang's overbearing!
Zhu Yuanzhang would wait patiently before the Lu family really did something they shouldn't do.

The wait may be futile, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.

But if the Lu family really made some misunderstood actions because of some inappropriate thoughts, Zhu Yuanzhang could just use this excuse to clear a way for his eldest grandson.

Zhu Yuanzhang is very familiar with this matter.

……

What happened in Zhengkan Village is only known to a few people.

What the people of Yingtian City were talking about after dinner was that the emperor's birthday was approaching day by day.

The vassal kings from all over the world, as well as various kings, lords, and uncles, also began to rush to Yingtian one after another, preparing to celebrate Zhu Yuanzhang's birthday.

King Zhu of Qin, Zhu Palm of Jin, Zhu Di of Yan, Zhu Wei of Zhou, Zhu Zhen of Chu, Zhu Mi of Qi, Zhu Chun of Shu, Zhu Bai of Xiang...

There are also the princes with different surnames who have survived so far, including Song Guogong Feng Sheng, Ying Guogong Fu Youde, Liang Guogong Lan Yu, Jingchuan Marquis Cao Zhen, Heqing Marquis Zhang Yi, Huining Marquis Zhang Wen, Puding Marquis Chen Huan, and Shunshou Zhu Shou etc.

For a time, the already prosperous Yingtian City became even more lively.

……

[Countdown to return: 297 days, 11 hours, 36 minutes and 17 seconds]

Another three days passed by.

In the manufacturing workshop in the western suburbs of Yingtian, Cao Wei was still in full swing, and Song Pingping and others rushed to make the first small train in Ming Dynasty.

The chassis of the vehicle body and the transmission device have been built and loaded, and now only the question of how to adjust the connection between the steam engine, the gear set pulley block and the transmission shaft remains.

At noon, Cao Wei stopped everyone's work, and today's lunch was still a big pot of food as usual.

"snoring~"

"snoring~"

A group of people held big bowls and sucked away.

Cao Wei swallowed the vegetable leaves in his mouth, took a bite of the coarse cake in his hand, and sipped the vegetable soup.

When he raised his eyes, he saw that most of the sleeper tracks had been laid around the periphery of the courtyard.

Trains are no more flexible and autonomous than cars. If you want to move forward smoothly, one thing you must do is to lay the railway tracks.

Of course, what Cao Wei is laying now is not a real railway track, it is just a temporary piece of sleeper. It is enough to allow the small train to run smoothly in front of Zhu Yuanzhang for one or two laps.

After a simple lunch, the craftsmen had a quarter of an hour to rest, which was stipulated by Cao Wei for them.

The workload of these craftsmen under their hands is really not small every day. Cao Wei can't reach the height of people's entrepreneurs, so he tries to let them rest as much as possible.

Sitting down against a wooden pile, Cao Wei was thinking about the next work of connecting various parts of the small train.

Today is October 10th, and there are only two days before Zhu Yuanzhang's birthday.

Hurry up, hurry up, there should be enough time...

At this time, Song Ping leaned over, "My lord, there are only two days left, can we catch up? In fact, it doesn't matter if the brothers don't rest for a while..."

Cao Wei knew what he wanted to say and waved his hand.

"Don't worry, I know what to do."

Song Ping had no choice but to nod when he heard this. Over the past few days, Cao Wei had already become their backbone.

At this time, Cao Wei suddenly gave Song Ping a weird look, as if remembering something interesting, he grinned and asked him:

"Two days ago, I heard from Brother Zhao that your family has quite a lot of money. Why do you still come here to do such hard work as a craftsman?"

When Song Ping heard it, he cheered up: "Your Excellency should understand the truth that people have their own ambitions. I'm not really interested in the mulberry, hemp and silkworm things at home, but I like to knock..."

The two had already become close friends, and when Cao Wei asked a question today, Song Ping talked about his family's situation like spitting beans out of a bamboo tube.

It turns out that Song Ping's surname should not be Song, but his ancestor's surname is Xiong.

During the Yuan Dynasty, Song Ping's father, Xiong Defu, served as the chief of Fengcheng Station in Nanchang Prefecture and married a local Song family.

Later, in order to avoid the military chaos, he changed his surname to his wife's Song surname and moved to live along the Dongya River in Fengxin County.

After the founding of the Ming Dynasty, Song Defu, who changed his name, took his family and settled in the south bank of Yaxi River in Fengxinbei Township to farm.

Taking advantage of the Ming government's encouragement of land reclamation, the nearby land was developed to plant mulberry, rice, and concurrently nutritional silkworms, gradually gaining scale...

"Hey! I didn't expect you to be a landlord class. You have run far enough, and you are already in heaven." Cao Wei teased.

The landlord at this time is a real compliment, representing a wealthy family.

Song Ping scratched his head, "Yingtian is the capital of the country, so I should come and take a look..."

Cao Wei nodded clearly, that is to say, Song Ping's family was well off, and ordinary families could not support Song Ping from running all the way from Jiangxi to Yingtian.

but……

Xiong Defu, Song Defu?Why is this name familiar?

After frowning and thinking for a moment, Cao Wei finally remembered a corner of his mind...

The ancestor of Song Yingxing who wrote "Tiangong Kaiwu" seems to be named Song Defu.

Cao Wei was stunned immediately.

The look in his eyes towards Song Ping changed.

It turns out that the person you rode the horse on was also the ancestor of an ancient celebrity?
