Daming: Refining zombies at the beginning, Lao Zhu was shocked

Chapter 298 Chapter 298: Zhu Xia Feng’s westward expedition, Zhu Xia Feng’s son was also born!
Zhu Xifeng once again embarked on his own journey, and in the Central Plains of Ming Dynasty, the pace of development and reform never stopped for a moment!

Although the emperor Zhu Li is basically acting as a hands-off shopkeeper now, the performance of Zhu Xiaqiu, the prince who supervises the country, is still quite impressive!

"Let's just say, as an emperor, you should just give up the throne to Qiu'er!"

"Anyway, you are busy in seclusion all day long. When you leave seclusion, you ignore state affairs. You let Qiu'er decide everything on her own. Why bother occupying the position of emperor?"

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Zhu Yue, who had just returned from Huangwei Taoist Temple, and snorted angrily.

"That's not possible. Let him supervise the country just to train his abilities. Let's not talk about whether Qiu'er has the intention to take over so soon. The time now is far from mature enough!"

When Zhu Li heard this, he shook his head seriously.

"Why are you immature?"

"It looks like you are occupying the latrine and not taking a shit!"

Zhu Yuanzhang disagreed.

"Not long after he came out of seclusion some time ago, he planned to raise troops to cause trouble for Eastern Chagatai. Although Eastern Chagatai had bowed to the Ming Dynasty, he was unwilling to fulfill the laws of the Ming Dynasty. He took this incident as a Excuse, prepare to raise troops to attack the Western Region!"

"This guy is planning to raise an army to attack Eastern Chagatai and recover the Western Region first!"

Zhu Yue was stunned again when he heard this.

"As long as I am the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, I can bring order to him at any time, and I am not afraid of what he will do!"

"Qiu'er is a very thoughtful child. You also know his temper. If I give him the throne now, I may not be able to control him anymore!"

"If I didn't remind you, kid, would you still be able to remember?"

"Qiu'er, the Crown Prince of the Supervisory Kingdom, is also very busy every day, but that guy, Lao San, you've almost forgotten about me, right?"

Hearing this, Zhu Li sighed helplessly.

Zhu Xifeng had just stabilized Mobei and was expanding abroad again. The third brother also started to make trouble!

"He wants to directly incorporate the Western Region into the territory of the Ming Dynasty!"

Zhu Yuanzhang briefly explained some recent situations.

I have no intention of taking care of all the big and small affairs in Hanzhong, I just leave them all to the people below!

Zhu Li really didn't know the news. After all, he had just come out of seclusion.

Zhu Yuanzhang was speechless when he said this.

"Otherwise, where will Xi Daming get its territory in the future?"

After Zhu Yue reacted, he smiled disapprovingly.

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted lightly, and then mentioned the matter of Zhu Xiye.

Now Zhu Xiaye is seventeen years old, and he will be of marriageable age in another year. Seeing him living with Zhu Yue in Huangwei Taoist Temple every day, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but feel anxious. How could it be possible?
"Isn't there still a year left? It won't be too late to arrange a marriage for him when he reaches adulthood!"

"But that boy Ye'er has been in seclusion with you. He's almost an adult, right?"

It seems that he also has foresight. It is enough for him to have a headache if his son has four children, so he might as well forget about it!

"You have been in seclusion for the past two years. Have you ever taken care of the affairs of these children?"

After Zhu Li listened, he was immediately speechless!
These children are really more capable than the other!

The old man is like this. He seems to be a little anxious on every issue. The same goes for the marriage of his children and grandchildren!

"You will make excuses for yourself!"

Speaking of Zhu Xiaqiang, since the Ming Dynasty moved the capital to Shuntian Prefecture, he, the King of Han, has been living happily in Hanzhong for several years!

Now he has started to take measures even when he is with Mr. Cao, Ms. Li and Saijia Sutushan!
As for the other women in the harem, since he started to stay in seclusion for long periods of time, he was hiding from everyone in disguise. These women also began to stop, and they seemed to have accepted their fate!

Moreover, this boy is already married. Not only has he married a main wife and princess, but he has also married several concubines, all of whom are daughters of prominent local families in Hanzhong!
This is really similar to the historical records of later generations. The future heir of Zhu Xiaxian will definitely be the most prosperous among the four brothers, at least he has the advantage in terms of numbers!
"Isn't this kid in seclusion all the time?"

"When will we attack the Western Region again?"

"You are still planning to take Ye'er with you to continue to live in seclusion, without even considering his life-long events?"

Zhu Yue: "..."

"I'll stop talking about the fourth one. The boss is currently fighting all over the world and doesn't have time to come back to Shuntian to see this old man!"

Zhu Li explained helplessly.

"I see, everything is your excuse!"

At the beginning, he could still focus on governing Hanzhong, but later on, this kid also began to imitate Zhu Yue, and went to Dingjun Mountain for retreat when he had nothing to do!

"As an old man, you don't care at all?"

"Sooner or later, the Western Region will be conquered!"

"What else happened?"

"Heng'er? What's wrong with this kid?"

"And after conquering the Western Regions, Ye'er will continue to conquer the Timur Khanate, the Middle East, and Jerusalem in the future!"

Zhu Yuanzhang changed the topic at this time and mentioned his third son, Zhu Xiaqiang.

"This kid is willing to do the hard work, so let him do the hard work!"

"Oh... we can finally see that you did it on purpose!"

"You don't really want to change the future of these children, do you?"

Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly sighed helplessly.

"Dad, don't you think that sometimes being too persistent can be counterproductive?"

"You have to understand that nothing is perfect in this world!"

"There are no perfect people, no perfect things, and no perfect era or dynasty!"

"No matter how hard we try to change the future, the problems that we should have in the end still exist. This is human nature!"

"We can change the direction of history, but the only thing we can't change is human nature!"

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's somewhat frustrated look, Zhu Yue could only explain with a wry smile. Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang fell silent.

He admitted that what Zhu Yue said made sense.

With the auspiciousness of the country's fortune, his thoughts began to become simple. He thought that as long as he could predict the future, he could change everything in the future, the entire Ming Dynasty, and the descendants of the old Zhu family, and change their destiny. Get better!

But in fact, such a change is still just an appearance!
As Zhu Yue said, human nature is indeed the most difficult to change. Just like the folk saying, as long as there are people, there will be rivers and lakes, and there will be intrigues!

Disputes, conflicts, and wars will not disappear completely because history has been changed. They will continue to exist in another form, but you can't see it yet!
"Perhaps you are right. We have all developed some demonic diseases over the years!"

After a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"You can't say that. Your thoughts are good, and they are all for the sake of Ming Dynasty and for the sake of future generations."

"It's just sometimes. Don't be too persistent. We just need to guide the general direction. As for the details, are they really that important?"

"Is there really a perfect history in this world?"

"If you can't do it, then why are you so persistent?"

"Just like the child Qiu'er, you said you wanted him to marry more and have more children, but what about him? Even if you know the consequences of doing this, you know that your lineage is not prosperous, you know that he My son doesn’t want to be emperor at all, so what?”

"He still made his choice!"

"Whether it's Feng'er, Yan'er, or even Ye'er, it's all the same!"

"They all have their own lives and things they want to do."

"We can guide, but we cannot impose our will on them!"

Zhu Yue said everything in his heart in one breath. He only hoped that Zhu Yuanzhang could stop pursuing perfection.

"well said!"

"We are too persistent!"

"We don't see it as clearly as you do!"

"Boy, if you teach me a lesson now, you'll have to do it one by one!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said this, but he couldn't help but laugh. It seemed that he had really figured it out and was relieved!
"How dare my son teach you a lesson? I just don't want you to worry about it!"

"You are already at your age, why don't you enjoy your old age in peace?"

"You can pass the time by walking and seeing wherever you want, so why bother worrying about the affairs of the juniors?"

"What's more, haven't we already paved their way for them in the future?"

"What else do you have to worry about?"

Zhu Yue smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"Come on, come have a few drinks with us!"

"You've been in seclusion for several months. As an old man, I want to find someone to express my inner feelings to, and I want to find someone to drink with me, but I can't find him!"

Zhu Yuanzhang stood up and said to Zhu Yue.

"You are always interested in this, so it's natural for you to be your son and accompany you!"

"Or Tianxiang Pavilion?"

Zhu Yue asked with a smile.

"It's Tianxiang Pavilion. I heard that a few dancers from the west have come recently and they can dance quite well. Let's go and have fun too!"

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed loudly and then took the lead and walked out.

Seeing this, Zhu Yue immediately followed him!

As for my sons’ affairs, I don’t care about them so much. Just take one step at a time and worry about them forever!
Hanzhong Mansion.

Zhu Xiaqiang has assembled 20,000 of his personal guards and 80,000 additional soldiers and horses sent by the imperial court, totaling 100,000 people, and is preparing to go to Eastern Chagatai!
For Zhu Xiaqiang, conquering the Western Region is more like a destiny, or a copy mission that he must do!
He has no doubt about the final result, victory must belong to him!

In a certain period of time in the future, he will even fight side by side with the two brothers Zhu Xia Feng and Zhu Xia Ye, or in other words, part of the territory of the Western Daming and Bei Daming will also have his own share of the credit!
In this regard, Zhu Xiaqian did not feel there was any unfairness!

He just wants the Eastern Ming Dynasty. Even if Zhu Xiaqiu wants to be the emperor, and his son also wants to be the emperor, he and Zhu Xiayan can not fight. At worst, he will lead an army to open up a new Ming Dynasty!
He is born with such a character, that is, he is bohemian, but also very open-minded, and he seems to have a very open mind about everything!
On this day, Zhu Xiaqian set out from Hanzhong with 100,000 soldiers and horses, directly out of Tianshui Pass, and started the prelude to the expedition to the Western Regions!
According to his plan, Dongchagatai can be completely destroyed and controlled in up to half a year!

He doesn't even need the soldiers and horses of the court, just his personal guards are enough!
However, after this territory is conquered, troops will always be needed to garrison it. Perhaps in Zhu Xifeng's view, this is the greatest significance of bringing the 80,000 court troops!
At the same time, west of Mobei.

Zhu Xifeng has gathered the elites from the Zhungeer tribe and the grassland tribes, and is ready to start a new round of conquests towards the permafrost areas!
Three or four months have passed since the army set out from Mobei, but the marching speed still cannot be increased!

The main reason is that this continent is indeed too cold!

The extreme cold weather alone caused serious obstacles to the army's continued march!

Even the most cold-resistant horses have to wrap their hooves in cotton cloth just to be able to travel dozens of miles a day!
But the difficulty in front of him cannot stop him, let alone Zhu Xifeng!
"His Royal Highness the Wind King, at this rate, it will take at least half a month to reach the Shaggy Barbarian's territory!"

"The army is a little too tired now. Why don't we find a place sheltered from the wind and let the army rest for a few days?"

The generals under his command had already made suggestions to Zhu Xifeng.

It's not that they are afraid of the severe cold, it's just that many soldiers are beginning to lose their strength!

This problem also exists objectively, so we can’t just ignore it, right?
"Okay, let's find a place to rest for a few days!"

"When the soldiers have calmed down, we will attack all the shaggy barbarians' territory in one go!"

Zhu Xifeng also understood that these soldiers were ordinary people and could not be compared with him, so he nodded in agreement.

The most important thing in fighting is that one division should be famous, so as to improve morale and inspire people!
Even things like PUA are sometimes necessary!
As for Zhu Xifeng's desire to attack Changmao Manzi's territory, it just depends on whether he wants to or not.

As long as he thinks about it, he can find countless excuses to send troops!

However, Zhu Xifeng didn't know that just when he was about to arrive at the territory of the long-haired barbarian, Princess Feng, who was far away in Mobei, was about to give birth!

When Zhu Xifeng went on the expedition, he also knew that his wife was at least five months pregnant, but he did not change his journey just because his child was about to be born!
Maybe there will be some regrets for not being able to see his children born, but Zhu Xifeng will not regret it!

One day later, Princess Feng, the daughter of Zhao Jian's family, gave birth to a big fat boy for Zhu Xifeng!

At the same time, the news was sent as quickly as possible to Zhu Xifeng, who had already gone to the front line, and to Shuntian Mansion!
Zhu Xifeng's first son is the future Prince Feng, or even the Crown Prince of Beida Ming!
After Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Yue got the news, they were naturally very happy!
