Chapter 316 It’s not yet time to let the horse go to Nanshan

Today, Zhu Zhen did not go to the harem to pay his respects to his mother, Concubine Zhou, because the generals were still surrounding him.

Zhu Ming was a little excited in his heart, but he did not dare to get carried away and quickly reassured everyone: "Everyone, although my status as king is falsely higher than yours, you are our seniors."

"Uncle Eighteen, I don't count, I am your eldest nephew," Li Jinglong joked.

Zhu Zhen glared at him angrily, "Can you get out?" With you here, the flavor of this queue has changed.

It can be said that one mouse droppings spoiled the pot of soup.

But Zhu Ming couldn't help but turned a blind eye and said to the others: "You are all the pillars of the country. Many uncles have contributed to the founding of the country. I don't dare to be rude."

Although compared with Xu Da, even Feng Sheng and Fu Youde did not dare to make any mistakes and still had to be ranked behind.

But they did make great contributions to the Zhu family's Ming Dynasty.

Especially Fu Youde, throughout all dynasties, among the founding heroes who were executed, he can be regarded as the most unjustly accused in history.

Because Fu Youde was unparalleled in bravery and repeatedly performed extraordinary feats. When he fought with Chen Youliang's army in the decisive battle at Poyang Lake, he could be said to be a "virtuous (with Fu Youde) man who sailed against the enemy in a light boat. He was wounded several times, but with the strength of the battle, he killed hundreds of people with his own hands and recovered." Invite all the generals to attack at the mouth of the Forbidden River. Friends will die, and the master will turn around, and he will be the most successful.

Also when Zhu Yuanzhang failed to attack Wuchang for a long time, and "no generals dared to advance because they looked after each other," it was Fu Youde who led a hundred men to get there first. Even though he was shot in the face by an arrow, he did not flinch and pulled out the arrow to continue fighting. , and then another arrow hit his ribs, but he still didn't care, and finally won Gaoguan Mountain.

Not to mention that in the battle to pacify Yunnan, during the entire battle, even the arrogant Lan Yu and Mu Ying were Fu Youde's lieutenants, and he was the commander-in-chief of the three armies.

Moreover, Fu Youde has no personal moral stains, abides by laws and regulations, and has no faults.

Even Feng Sheng was tricked by his own son-in-law Chang Mao.

If you have to be serious, Fu Youde once made a request to "please take care of a thousand acres of land far away", and then was reprimanded by Zhu Yuanzhang, "The salary is not small, how can we benefit from invading the people again?" Why don't you stop following the public etiquette? ’.

Fu Youde didn't dare to mention it anymore.

Moreover, he asked for it and told Zhu Yuanzhang, which is different from Lan Yu's private invasion and occupation.

In the end, Fu Youde still died, and even suffered the fate of "not being heard in the temple corridors when he entered, and not being written in the classics when he retreated", and did not enter the Ancestral Temple.

Although Zhu Zhen does not understand history, because he is now in the current era, even if he has gained some knowledge, it is limited to the previous 'history', and he still knows very little about the future of the original history.

Therefore, Zhu Zhen did not know that although Fu Youde and Feng Sheng were both founding heroes, they did not enter the Ancestral Temple due to some reasons.

But at least Zhu Zhen knew that these generals who were gradually becoming "unpopular" were actually helpless.

Nowadays, the court is transitioning from old to new, but some of them once held large armies. Especially Feng Sheng and Fu Youde are the first to bear the brunt. They are both the Dukes of the country and are related by marriage to the two legitimate sons of the vassal kings. This has caused the old people to Zhu's suspicion.

So Zhu Ming could only try his best to comfort him.

"Don't worry, the court and my father will not kill meritorious ministers without reason. Besides, the world has not reached the time when horses are released to Nanshan. You, this king will be of great use in the future. There is still land to the south of Yunnan, and to the north of Mobei , beyond the East China Sea, and so on. The war will never end. I would rather die on the battlefield than let you die in a party dispute in the court without knowing why."

It can be said that Zhu Ming spoke from the bottom of his heart.

The generals looked at each other.

Your Highness, do you understand that you want to seize the legitimate heir?

In fact, things have come to the current situation step by step, and many things just need to be broken through the window paper.

After all, in a few months, Zhu Lingke will patrol the world on behalf of the emperor. What signal is this? Who doesn't know?

If Zhu Ming didn't even dare to expose this ambition or admit it, then it wouldn't be him.

"Since you think highly of me, I will definitely live up to your expectations. However, you are the mainstay of the imperial court and the generals who command the troops. Without my permission, you are not allowed to participate in the imperial political parties indiscriminately. You do not need to help me. Whatever Wang does, he just needs to watch from the sidelines," Zhu Zhen said with confidence.

He doesn't need to bring them to cheer him up, it's just Zhu Yunwen and a bunch of weak scholars.

As the saying goes, a scholar is useless and a scholar cannot rebel for ten years.

Zhu Zhen really didn't take Zhu Yunwen and the civil service group around him seriously.

"Okay, okay, let's all disperse. I also want to go to Wei Guogong Xu's Mansion to see my father-in-law, Uncle Xu," Zhu Zhengong cupped his hands and finally let everyone leave with peace of mind.

Feng Sheng and Fu Youde exchanged glances, came together, and started communicating quietly.

"No wonder His Majesty specifically said those words to us before."

"Sure enough, His Highness is indeed quite ambitious, and His Majesty also intends to cultivate it."

"But His Highness is taking it too much for granted, isn't it? He doesn't take the civil service group seriously enough, and I'm afraid he will suffer a loss."

"But don't forget, His Majesty is secretly escorting us in the court, and has even paved the way for us to surrender to His Majesty. Moreover, His Majesty's father-in-law is General Xu Da."

"The only difficulty now is His Highness's background. I'm afraid the world's scholars will not recognize it."

"Unless His Highness can continue to perform extraordinary feats, and then His Highness's biological mother can be promoted to Queen. In this way, His Highness's origin will not be a problem."

The two of them exchanged glances and suddenly thought that His Majesty had already mentioned that he had promoted Zhu Chu's biological mother, Concubine Zhou, to a noble concubine today, and had specifically ignored Zhu Chu's proposal to marry Xu Miaojin. He was probably making preparations and foreshadowing.

"If His Highness can really conquer the Wala, Uliangha, or Tubo, Eastern Chagatai Khanate and other countries in the Western Region, with such great achievements, he will be able to be crowned queen."

"Your Majesty and Your Highness, this is a big game of chess. But this is also our opportunity."

The two exchanged glances again, and both couldn't help but smile, and the gloom in their hearts disappeared.

It seems that they don't have to die.

On the other side, Zhu Xi was planning to leave the palace.

But along the way, there was someone following closely behind.

"Uncle Eighteen, don't walk so fast, wait a minute, nephew," Li Jinglong followed Zhu Xi all the way, and shouted in a disgusting way.

In the past, when Zhu Zhen used his seniority to suppress him, or bully him, Li Jinglong would be dissatisfied or angry, but he could barely call him uncle.

It's better now. Zhu Ming said angrily: "Who is your uncle? Can you stay away from me? Don't bother me."

Zhu Chu was so angry, why did Li Jinglong come looking for him too? This is the famous Ming God of War. Can you please stay away?

If you want to say that Li Jinglong is really a talent, it is just a derogatory term. The only person who can turn the God of War into a derogatory term is him, besides the emperor Zhu Qizhen.

In the famous Battle of Jingnan, because Geng Bingwen was better at defending the city, he was replaced by Zhu Yunwen because of one defeat, and Li Jinglong was appointed as the head coach of the Southern Army.

That's good, this guy really doesn't pretend anymore, it's like he's acting out.

In the Battle of Jingnan, Zhu Yuanzhang actually left many bright generals for Zhu Yunwen, such as Qu Neng. Qu Neng and his son once attacked the city of Beiping. As long as they captured Beiping and captured Zhu Gaochi, the eldest son of King Yan who was defending the city at that time, Zhu Di is finished.

In the end, Li Jinglong actually chose to withdraw his troops?

Later, he even destroyed an army of 500,000 people, allowing Zhu Di to fight all the way to the capital.

In the end, Li Jinglong personally opened the city gate to welcome Zhu Di.

No wonder there are always people who suspect that Li Jinglong is actually Zhu Di's man, because during the Yongle period, Li Jinglong was not punished even if he was impeached by Zhou Wang Zhu Ji, Zhu Di's brother and others.

Later, ministers of the court and ministers continued to impeach Li Jinglong. Zhu Di only cut off Li Jinglong's title of meritorious official and did not allow him to go to court to face the emperor. However, he still stayed at home with the title of Duke and was reluctant to cut his title.

Moreover, Li Jinglong did not die until the end of Yongle.

This is simply a talent. Without him, Zhu Di really couldn't win.

Whenever Li Jinglong makes a mistake, generals such as Qu Neng or Ping An are enough to bring down Zhu Diqian.

Among them, Ping An was the most aggrieved. He once forced Zhu Di into a dead end. It was Li Jinglong who gave him a way to survive and allowed Zhu Gaoxu to save Zhu Di. Otherwise, Zhu Di might have died in Baigou River.

Zhu Ming stared at the Ming God of War in front of him and said angrily: "Why are you making trouble with me? You and Yun Wen are brothers of the same generation, right? Go, go, serve Yun Wen."

As long as Zhu Yunwen is willing to trust Li Jinglong, even if there is a battle of Jingnan in the future, Zhu Xinxin said that he can 'quell the chaos' as quickly as possible, so that the Ming Dynasty will not be riddled with holes, let alone the war endangering the people.

This was a talent he couldn't bear to kill.

Li Jinglong said with an aggrieved look: "Look what you said, my nephew was a fool at first, but thanks to my uncle's teachings, he has decided to change his ways. It's just that His Majesty the Imperial Uncle wanted my nephew to go out to train in Shaanxi, so he wanted to follow Please give me some experience." As mentioned before, Li Jinglong is Li Wenzhong's son, and Li Wenzhong is Zhu Yuanzhang's nephew. These are real relatives.

Li Wenzhong's father was Li Zhen, who married Zhu Yuanzhang's second sister. When Zhu Yuanzhang was young and his family was poor, he was often taken care of by his brother-in-law's family.

So later, Zhu Yuanzhang not only exempted Li Zhen from the Chang Dynasty and paid homage to him, but also specially allowed him to wear the dragon robe of a five-clawed golden dragon.

That's a dragon robe.

Except Li Zhen, who has this honor?

Now that Li Zhen and Li Wenzhong are dead, Zhu Yuanzhang's love for Li Jinglong is not inferior to that of his own descendants.

Especially because King Zhu Ping of Qin died suddenly and suddenly, Zhu Ping's eldest son Zhu Shangbing has not yet been allowed to ascend the throne, so Zhu Yuanzhang planned to let Li Jinglong go to Shaanxi to train troops.

In addition, even if the troops from the Qin Palace returned, they would first go to the capital to discuss their merits and reward them.

That's why Li Jinglong wanted to come to Zhu Chu and ask for some advice.

Not to mention anything else, he would be able to relax a lot if Zhu Chu could say something for him and let Peng Yue and Niu Sheng help this army that would eventually go back to Xi'an at critical moments.

To put it bluntly, I came to Zhu Ming because I wanted to ask for him.

Zhu Ming said funny and angrily: "Now you know how to please me? Why did you go there before?"

"Look what you said, since the day you came back years ago, my nephew has always been around you, and you have always been the one bullying me," Li Jinglong became more and more aggrieved as he spoke.

As one of the famous playboys in the capital, when had Li Jinglong been so angry?

However, Zhu Min was more noble than him, so he couldn't accept it.

"Little cousin, please help me. You see, my grandfather, my father, and the emperor's uncle are all one family. You have to have mercy on me," Li Jinglong said pitifully.

According to the kinship relationship, Li Wenzhong and Zhu Zhen are cousins.

But Zhu Ming always felt that this boy was scolding him, little cousin? Little bitch?

You'd better not curse.

"Okay, okay, when Niu Sheng and Peng Yue come back, I will say hello to you. Just go and do whatever you need to do, don't bother me. It's just training, practice well, and you don't need to lead the troops. Why are you afraid of fighting?" Zhu Zhen really took the trouble and could only reluctantly agree.

Li Jinglong left happily, but before leaving, he did not forget to mutter: "You have had a great time leading troops in war, but this is my first time."

This kid, do you really think I will know this when I am born?

Zhu Ming rolled his eyes and was too lazy to pay attention to Li Jinglong. He hurried out of the palace while he finally had some leisure time.

Outside the palace gate, the carriage of the Zhu family was naturally waiting.

Zhu Chu got on the carriage and informed: "Go to Xu Mansion."

Now he is becoming more and more skilled at running to the Duke of Wei's mansion.

Even the Xu Mansion was very familiar with him, so they didn't need to inform him. They opened the door and let him go as soon as they saw it was him.

It won't work if you don't let him go. He was yelling outside yesterday. Now who doesn't know that he is the husband-in-law of the fourth lady of the Xu family, they almost treat him as the son-in-law of the Xu family.

After entering the Xu Mansion, Zhu Min was about to go to the backyard to check on Xu Da's condition.

As a result, Myolie stopped me halfway.

Xing'er is Xu Miaojin's personal maid, the eldest maid in Xu Miaojin's yard, and she commands all the other maids.

In fact, if Zhu Chu is willing, Xing'er will be Xu Miaojin's dowry girl from now on. She is the kind of girl who is married to another woman. She is said to be a girl, but in fact she is a concubine.

Generally speaking, when Zhu Zhen and Xu Miaojin were practicing together, she would be waiting in the outer room, always on call, and able to accompany the heroine at any time.

She was the one who helped the young couple guard outside the courtyard gate before, and even the three brothers of the Xu family had to give them a little bit of noodles.

"Your Highness, the young lady is waiting for you in the courtyard, and she has also prepared breakfast. Madam also said that if you come over in the next day, you should go and have something to eat first. The master is not in a hurry," Xing'er greeted.

Zhu Ming was secretly amused, Old Xu, Old Xu, you have today too.

"No, no, no, no, I'd better go see Uncle Xu first, and give Auntie a gift by the way," Zhu Ming said, still minding his own business and went to the backyard.

After informing the maid of the housekeeper, Zhu Chu was summoned by Jia.

"This kid, they told you to go to Miaojin's courtyard to have something to eat before coming here. Do you think I and the old man don't need breakfast?" Jia said angrily.

When Zhu Chu entered, he discovered that the old couple had just had breakfast.

"In the past, the old man had to go to court every day, so he was used to having breakfast at this time. Sometimes your three brothers could come back from court and have breakfast together. Today it seems that they went directly to the office if they had something to do," Jia said in a casual tone.

Zhu Ming responded with a smile, and frowned when he saw Xu Da forcing himself to sit there.

Xu Da glared at him: "What? I just got up to eat and you didn't let me?"

"Don't dare, my nephew dares not care about you. But if it bleeds and suppurates again, it won't be easy to clean up," Zhu Ming said he didn't dare, but his words were full of threats.

Xu Da was agitated. Thinking of the pain he would have to bear when changing the dressing and cleaning the fluid accumulation, he even lost the taste of food.

Jia was secretly amused. How could she not know the character of her old man? Apart from His Majesty and Tang He, probably no one in the world could be taken seriously by him.

After all, there are really few people who can surpass Xu Da in the credit book.

As a result, he is now being obeyed by Zhu Zhengzhi, which is also funny.

"But you'd better finish your food and take a rest. I'll come see you again," Zhu Zhen said before turning around and going out.

It's not good to open Xu Da's bandaged wound now. What if the aroma of the food comes out, thinking it's smoked bacon?

After coming out, Zhu Chu came to Xu Miaojin's yard with ease.

Xu Miaojin was sitting in the yard. Seeing him come in, she looked happy at first, and then pouted and said: "I told you Xing'er to come here first, but you still went to the backyard. Mom and dad want to eat too. Things, and I need to freshen up in the morning.”

Zhu Ming smiled bitterly and agreed: "Sister, we are not married yet. Even if my uncle and aunt don't choose, can I really break the rules?"

Xu Miaojin rolled her eyes at him, and suddenly asked a little shyly: "By the way, I forgot to ask you before. Did your Majesty mention our affairs this time when he was giving rewards based on merit?"

Zhu Chen suddenly felt a headache and pinched his teeth, really afraid of what might happen.

How should he explain to Xu Miaojin? He said that the father had given the concubine, that is, the title of Mu Qiu first, but you, you still have to wait?

But this matter would have to be faced sooner or later, and Zhu Zhen was not vague. He came over and sat down opposite Xu Miaojin, and honestly explained the process and content of this merit-based reward.

Based on Zhu Chu's contributions in Yunnan and the grasslands respectively, one was to win the title of partial concubine for Mu Qiu, and the other was naturally to reward his mother, Concubine Zhou, as a noble concubine.

Because Zhu Cunfeng had no choice but to award others.

It was understandable.

But in fact, Xu Miaojin also made achievements on the battlefield, but because she was a girl and had no official position, even asking for merit had nothing to do with her.

Besides, it’s not like Zhu Yuanzhang doesn’t know the situation of the young couple. You two have settled down in Ningxia Town for life. What’s Zhu’s belongs to Xu Miaojin, and what’s Xu Miaojin’s belongs to Zhu. You can’t ask for two credits from me.

"Your Majesty is so stingy," Xu Miaojin frowned, complaining.

How could she not know that Emperor Hongwu wanted to give you a hand in marriage? He proposed marriage to you before, but you refused to accept it. Now you want it? I haven't agreed yet.

The dignified Emperor Hongwu actually vented his anger on his own son. Isn't he stingy?

Another one, Xu Miaojin sighed and said: "Your Majesty is also worried. If you make great achievements again, you will be unable to be crowned, and you can't give your mother and concubine a title all at once. You can't give nothing. Right? When that time comes, I'm afraid we will mention our marriage again. Tell me, did you say anything to His Majesty again? "

Zhu Gong smiled and shook his head, not daring to say that he had said before that he wanted to capture the Eastern Chagatai Khanate and Tubo, and even further capture Oara.

I'm afraid the problem is still related to him?

But you can't let the girl know.

But Xu Miaojin was so smart that she couldn't help but give him a look and hummed: "I knew you were the one who was involved. Poor me, I have to continue to make great contributions to you before I can marry you. Zhu Shiba, Zhu Shiba, you It’s very harmful. But I just like you. Alas.”

(PS: Happy New Year, everyone. Thank you for your continued support. I don’t have much ability, and my writing skills are generally limited. I only have the strength to do so. I’ll give you an update.)
