Li Er of the Tang Dynasty: Ancestor Xie is here!

Chapter 158 You dare to talk to us like this, are you a wholesaler of the Nine Clans?
  In the seventh year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, Yingtian Mansion was established.

In the clouds above the palace city, Li Qing and Li Shimin stood on it, followed by two people.

Before the two men could speak, Li Shimin reached out and grabbed Li Qing.

He asked in a low voice: "Brother Xian, are you looking for these two..." He looked at the two people for a moment and whispered: "It's not because I'm spying on people, but I really can't think of these two people." Is there something special that would make Zhu Yuanzhang bow to him?"

"Don't worry, Brother Li, listen to my story." Li Qing said to Li Shimin with a smile.

Thinking that his virtuous brother and brother-in-law had always been more active, Li Shimin also put his mind at ease and began to watch his virtuous brother's life.

……

"...The basic situation is like this." Li Qing pushed up his glasses subconsciously, but suddenly realized that his myopia was gone.

"So... the Immortal is saying that my son succeeded in his rebellion and became the emperor?"

Zhu Wusi in the cloud still couldn't believe his ears. He wondered if he heard wrongly.

My Zhu family has been a poor peasant for generations, but my son Chongba actually rebelled and successfully became the emperor? Dear mother...

Yes, Li Qing used the last two places for Zhu Yuanzhang's parents.

Ha, you, Zhu Chongba, are lawless in the Ming Dynasty. If I call out Zhu Wusi, how will you respond?

"Hearing is false, seeing is believing. Uncle Zhu and Aunt Zhu, please take a look at Chongba's life with me first..."

Li Qing said, and with a wave of his hand, a light curtain appeared in front of them. The picture above flickered for a moment, and a cowherd boy appeared.

"Hey, it's our Chongba Lie!" Zhu Wusi pointed at the cowherd boy and said excitedly.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang's mother, Mrs. Chen, didn't say anything, she recognized it as her Chongba at a glance.

Zhu Yuanzhang's life flashed quickly on the light screen. First, his parents starved to death. Liu Jizu took pity on him and gave him a cemetery to bury his parents. Then, he, his second brother, sister-in-law, and nephew were forced to escape separately...

Looking at the lonely little Zhu Chongba, Zhu Wusi and Chen couldn't help crying.

"My son... your life is so miserable..."

Li Shimin couldn't help but blush, and secretly turned his head away to wipe the tears from his eyes with his sleeves.

He hated seeing this kind of scene the most.

After that, Zhu Chongba grew up little by little, became a monk, traveled around, and joined the rebel army. After seeing that Guo Zixing adopted him as his adopted son and officially changed his name to Zhu Yuanzhang, with the courtesy name Guorui, the two became happy again.

"The commander-in-chief is so kind to our family!" Zhu Wusi couldn't help but sigh.

Then, they saw the scene of Guo Dashuai's adopted daughter Ma Xiuying marrying Chongba of their family.

"This girl looks like she is a housekeeper!" Mrs. Chen fell in love with her daughter-in-law from the first moment she saw Ma Xiuying.

Ma Xiuying is not that good-looking, but she is dignified and majestic. At first glance, she looks like a well-born lady.

That's it...even Chen and Zhu Wusi felt that maybe their Chongba was a bit too high up on others.

There is no doubt that they are biological parents.

Then Zhu Yuanzhang conquered cities and territories, recruited talented people, inherited the army of his adoptive father, and step by step from a private soldier to the commander-in-chief, Duke of Wu, and King of Wu. The final scene is that Zhu Yuanzhang proclaimed himself emperor in Zijin Mountain, and the country was named Ming Dynasty. Hongwu.

"Lao Zhu's life is really a legend..." Li Shimin couldn't help but sigh.

"Yeah, a bowl at the beginning, a rope at the end... such a big country." Li Qing promptly stopped the "one rope" comment.

"My son..." Mrs. Chen cried, hugged Zhu Wusi and cried muffledly.

Only a mother would think about how much suffering and injustice her Chongba had endured over so many years.

Others would only care about the glory of Chongba becoming the adopted son of the Marshal and marrying the adopted daughter of the Marshal. She was the only one who felt sorry for Chongpachi in her heart. She had made such great achievements and was still being suspected.

Li Shimin had sharp eyes. He saw what seemed to be a quarrel below, and asked Li Qingdao: "Brother Xian, look, are they quarreling below? It seems to be Lao Zhu and his son? Come over and have a look!"

When Li Qing heard this, he immediately pressed down his cloud head, hiding his figure and voice above them.

In the main hall, Zhu Yuanzhang was holding a whip angrily, pointing at Zhu Biao and scolding: "You rebellious son! Do you really want to disobey our orders?"

"Excuse me, I cannot accept the call! Zhou Li said, "If your father is alive, you will serve your mother for many years, but if you are a concubine, you will not serve." Now, your father and your mother are still alive, and Sun Niangniang is not the son, minister, and brothers. Mother, why do you, your ministers, and your brothers have to mourn for Sun Niangniang?" Zhu Biao frowned, looking awe-inspiring and righteous.

"Sun Guifei has been kind to you in raising her! You are not willing to mourn for her. This... this is simply unfilial!" Zhu Yuanzhang gritted his teeth and looked at Zhu Biao: "Biao'er, you are the eldest, you should be the eldest for your brothers. Set an example!"

Who knew that Zhu Biao, who had always been gentle, respectful and obedient to his father, would actually confront him for the first time this time.

"Of course I am grateful for Empress Sun's kindness, but my mother is still alive. If you ask me to mourn for my concubine, where will you leave my mother? Father, please think again!"

With that said, Zhu Biao knelt on the ground with a plop and begged Zhu Yuanzhang to take back his life.

"This Zhu Biao is really a good boy." Old Li on the head of the cloud said to Li Qing with some jealousy: "Love your younger brother and honor your parents. How much smoke is coming from Zhu Yuanzhang's ancestral grave!"

"It's good to be smart, don't envy others." Li Qing couldn't help but advise.

However, when parents see other people’s outstanding children, the first thing they think of is chicken babies.

Lao Li planned to drag Li Chengqian over when he had time to learn from Zhu Biao.

Not to mention what Yun Shang Lao Li thought, Lao Zhu in the hall was already furious.

But there was nothing he could do, the person in front of him was his legitimate son, and he was reluctant to hit him, and he was reluctant to scold him... and he was also reluctant to scold him.

"Biao'er, let me tell you, your Lady Sun has been with us since the sixth year of Dragon and Phoenix..." Zhu Yuanzhang took a deep breath and tried to reason with his son: "I have been through all the ups and downs over the years. I want to help you. The queen mother assists in managing the harem and raises you, so you can tell me, among your legitimate sons, from you to Ji'er, who has not eaten the maltose she boiled? When you eat the candy, you say it is sweet. Now that the person is gone, the tea has become cold. How can we You can't do this, Biao'er..."

In Zhu Yuanzhang's view, Concubine Sun had no sons, but only gave birth to several daughters, not even one who was weak in service. In addition, after helping Queen Ma raise her children for so many years, these sons have all been blessed by her, so why bother with that bullshit etiquette?
  Our standards were ruined by those dog-headed scholars! Lao Zhu thought fiercely, ready to surprise Song Lian at any time.    If it hadn’t been for those bullshit principles you taught me, how could this child be quarreling with us now over such a trivial matter?
  If Song Lian were here, he would definitely curse in his heart.

Gan Linliang, it was you who begged us to teach your son in the first place, and now it is you who blames us for teaching him, so we might as well not have taught him in the first place and just be killed by you, so as not to suffer the consequences for so many years!

Seeing that Zhu Biao was still unmoved, Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and softened his attitude: "Otherwise, let's make a rule. No matter which one of the father and aunt dies, they will be destitute for three years; if it is the aunt's mother who dies, the biological The son will also serve for three years, and the other sons, whether legitimate or concubine, will all serve the same period of the wand."

The so-called mourning stick period refers to wearing mourning clothes and holding a mourning stick for one year. When Lao Zhu saw Zhu Biao's expression softening, he continued to warm up.

"Let your fifth brother Ji'er mourn for your wife, Sun. Everyone has gone. How can you find one of your five legitimate sons?"

Unexpectedly, Zhu Yuanzhang's softened expression immediately changed after hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words.

"Father! That's your younger brother!" Zhu Biao said sternly: "Even if I fight for the position of prince, I still don't want to let my younger brother suffer!"

"You...you rebellious son! We have made such big concessions for you! Why don't you know how to understand us!" Zhu Yuanzhang pointed at Zhu Biao and cursed.

"I would rather that my father take over the position of prince, and I don't want to see my younger brothers being wronged!" Zhu Biao is a bastard who has eaten the weight, and is determined to confront Lao Zhu.

"You...you want to compete with us in the ring?!" Lao Zhu gasped heavily. Zhu Biao's lack of cooperation really pissed him off.

Zhu Biao stiffened his neck and looked as if he had resigned calmly: "The bastard of the princes does not even mourn for his concubine, let alone the son of the emperor! My father returned to Fengyang's hometown to see his mother, and his sons and brothers had no one to look after him. For A woman in the harem did such a perverse thing, something that not even foolish kings like Xia Jie and Shang Zhou had ever done!"

*Rage value +500 from Zhu Yuanzhang
  I'm angry, but looking at this value...it seems...not that angry?

"You...you treacherous son!" Lao Zhu was so angry that his hair and beard were all bald, even more explosive than Zhang Fei on Changban Slope. In anger, he threw away the long whip in his hand, reached out and pulled out the sword from the side, and shouted: "We must teach you a lesson today!"

Who knew that Zhu Biao would not hold back his hand? When he saw Lao Zhu being furious, he immediately got up from the ground and shouted: "If a small stick is carried away by a big stick, I will not trap my father in injustice!"

Li Shimin, who was above the clouds, couldn't help but glance at Li Qing when he heard this.

Why do all the children of the Emperor's family say this?

However, Li Qing spread his hands and said that these words were the original words in "The Book of Ming Dynasty: The Records of Crown Prince Yiwen"...

The original text is: The prince was furious and struck him with his sword. The prince jumped and said, "If you have a big stick, go away!"

Under the cloud head, Zhu Yuanzhang was chasing after him with his sword, while Zhu Biao was running in front with his clothes, making a slippery move.

He ran, he chased, he couldn't fly.

"Why is this Chongba like this!" Zhu Wusi complained subconsciously.

They say he is the old son or the eldest grandson. Zhu Biao is such a gentle and kind eldest grandson, which immediately touched Zhu Wusi's heart. Now that this son has become the emperor, he disowns all his relatives and wants to kill such an outstanding son with a sword? !

Do you think your son is like a leek that grows again after cutting it? Zhu Wusi was not happy at once. It was too late for him to offer such a good grandson!
  "Uncle Zhu, can you bear this?" Li Qing added angrily, "If I were you, I couldn't bear it..."

"No, I have to go down and persuade him." Zhu Wusi couldn't hold himself back. He really couldn't bear to see such an outstanding grandson being hacked to death by this bastard son.

But he was a little entangled and asked hesitantly: "After so many years, can Chongba still remember me? He is the emperor. If I say something wrong, Chongba will not be like the Tang Dynasty in that storybook... who is Taizong of the Tang Dynasty?" Imprison me the same way?"

As soon as these words came out, Li Shimin's face turned dark.

What kind of storybook, how do you arrange it for me? When did I imprison my father just because of a word?

Uh, it seems, probably... almost like a prisoner?
  Forget it, forget it, you are uneducated, I am not as knowledgeable as you...

"That's your son, Uncle Zhu." Li Qing said with a smile: "You care about him, but it's only natural. Why, when you become the emperor, you don't recognize your parents?"

"But I still have some..."

It's no wonder that Zhu Wusi hesitated. He was an honest and honest old farmer. If Li Qing hadn't shown him Zhu Yuanzhang's growth trajectory, he would have been beaten to death. He wouldn't have dared to attack the domineering man below. The emperor was associated with his son Zhu Chongba, a cowherd boy.

Now let him take care of the emperor? That is absolutely something you would not dare to do. Everyone knows that once this man becomes emperor, his temper will no longer be normal.

"Don't worry, Uncle Zhu. Even if you don't believe in Chongba, you have to believe in me, right?" Li Qing smiled gently and encouraged Zhu Wusi: "I am an immortal, even if he doesn't recognize you, I will take you away. There’s still no problem.”

"If you say so, then I believe it!" Zhu Wusi nodded heavily. Even as a farmer, he knew that gods were more powerful than emperors.

Otherwise, why would the emperor of Qin still ask for immortality?

Seeing Zhu Wusi's response, Li Qing brushed off his clouds and landed behind Zhu Yuanzhang, who was holding his knees and panting.

Then he removed his invisibility and silence, and winked at Zhu Wusi.

Zhu Wusi emboldened himself, recalling how he had scolded Zhu Chongba when he was a child, and shouted loudly: "Zhu Chongba! You green-skinned bastard! Do you want to overthrow the world!"

*Rage value +10000 from Zhu Yuanzhang
  After hearing this sentence, Zhu Yuanzhang's anger immediately shifted to this sentence.

Damn it, since we became the emperor, who dares to call me names like that?
  Do you really think Zhu Yuanzhang has a good temper? In this world, only our girls can call us Zhu Chongba!
  Thinking this, Zhu Yuanzhang turned around with a curse.

"If you dare to talk to us like this, your nine clans will be given away for nothing..."

Before he could finish his words, Lao Zhu was stunned on the spot.

What appeared in front of him were two figures who thought about it day and night.

It has been nearly forty years... Every time I dream back at midnight, I will dream of the loving eyes of my youth.

But, why is there timidity and alienation in this gaze?

Zhu Yuanzhang let go of his hand, and the long sword fell to the ground with a clang, and tears could not help but flow down.

"Dad...Mom?"
