Ming Dynasty: Every day, Zhu Yuanzhang is in trouble

"Mother, what should I do with my second brother-in-law's title?"

Prince Zhu Biao looked at Queen Ma and said.

It seems a bit difficult to do this.

After all, after some discussion, my father made the decision to reward his second brother-in-law.

He was named Shuang Shui Bo.

The matter has been settled.

My father went to Shuangshui Village today. In addition to seeing the sweet potatoes, he also wanted to make his second brother-in-law the Shuangshui Uncle.

And my father has already done this.

But in the end, such a big mistake happened.

As a result, this originally happy situation suddenly became different.

With the father's current performance, how could he possibly get any reward for his second brother-in-law?
At least not in the short term.

It's just that for the many contributions that the second brother-in-law has made, if he doesn't get some rewards, he really can't do anything to the second brother-in-law.

Not to mention the many contributions made by the second brother-in-law before this, such as sweet potatoes and the three-hundred-year law of the dynasty.

With this, they could have a glimpse of the future of Ming Dynasty.

And some corresponding solutions are also given.

This contribution is simply too great!

Not to mention making the second brother-in-law an earl, even directly making him a duke, in Zhu Biao's opinion, that's fine!
Not to mention that this time, the second brother-in-law remonstrated with his father because he saw another big loophole for his own Ming Dynasty.

It can be said that not only is there no fault, but he has made great contributions.

On the father's side, if there was no reward for this, he would just scold the second brother-in-law.

There is indeed something not very good about this.

It is understandable that the father cursed his second brother-in-law because he was reprimanded to death.

But on his side, he must comfort his second brother-in-law accordingly.

Give the second brother-in-law what he deserves.

Otherwise, Zhu Biao himself would feel sorry for his second brother-in-law.

Although my second brother-in-law's mouth was really poisonous when he was admonishing him to death.

What he said was really ugly.

But his intentions were good.

It's for the sake of Ming Dynasty.

Because of the existence of his second brother-in-law, he has undergone great changes since the Ming Dynasty.

Although some things have not happened yet, it is only a matter of time.

I will definitely do it in the future...

But now, his father is obviously angry at his second brother-in-law.

It is obviously a bit difficult to calm down the father and get a reward for the second brother-in-law in a short period of time.

He also knew that his father still recognized his second brother-in-law.

But isn't this matter also related to his father's face?

Zhu Biao was also a little undecided on this matter.

So I asked my mother this question.

Queen Ma said: "Biao'er, this matter is easy to handle.

The contribution your second brother-in-law has made is indeed great.

He must be rewarded accordingly.

If there is no reward, this is really a shame.

This child has a good nature and is really thinking about Ming Dynasty.

For the development of the Ming Dynasty, he would not hesitate to remonstrate even to the death.

We can't let honest people suffer.

We cannot let those who really worry about Ming Dynasty feel cold.

Zhu Biao strongly agreed with what his mother said.

But he still seems somewhat puzzled by the simplicity of what his mother said.

I don’t know what my mother said, this is so simple, how far it can go.

In his opinion, this matter is indeed difficult to handle.

It's mainly related to rewards.

Other things are easy to talk about, but regarding the reward, neither the queen nor oneself can do it without permission.

If you really do it, no one in the world will recognize it, and it will easily cause a lot of trouble.

This matter is fundamentally different from how the queen mother directly married her second sister to her second brother-in-law while her father was away.

However, since the queen mother said that this matter is easy to handle, she might as well listen carefully.

Zhu Biaoyou knew very well that his mother was no ordinary woman.

Although my mother doesn't say much about many things.

But usually whenever the Queen Mother opens her mouth, she basically has something to say...

Zhu Biao immediately understood why his mother said this matter could be easily solved.

Queen Ma reached out and took out an edict from her sleeve.

But it was exactly the edict that Zhu Yuanzhang wrote yesterday, canonizing Mei Yin as Shuangshui Bo.

"You keep this edict, and when you go to Shuangshui Village in two days to see your second brother-in-law, read this edict to him.

Bring the corresponding clothes and seals with you.

When you come back, tell the world. "

Zhu Biao couldn't help but be stunned for a moment after hearing his mother's words.

In other words, after hearing his mother say that the matter was easy to handle, he thought it was his mother and was going to personally take action and talk to his father about this matter.

Please advise your father.

Ask your father to change his mind and stop being so stubborn.

Then give a reward to the second brother-in-law...

In the end, who would have expected that his mother would directly take out the edict of the reward and give it to him.

This is really unexpected.

"Mother, is this...not good? Father, this matter..."

Empress Ma shook her head and said, "There's nothing wrong with it. Was this edict written by your father?

Is it the seal he used?
Did he handle all the procedures?
Is this edict true? "

Zhu Biao nodded: "It's all true."

Queen Ma smiled and said, "Isn't this the end?
Since it was all done by your father, there is absolutely no problem with this matter. "

Zhu Biao was somewhat stunned.

"No, Queen Mother, the root of this matter...is not here.

this……"

Queen Ma smiled and said, "I know what you are thinking.

But you don't have to worry about this.

Just do it, your father is really a sly person on many things.

It is easy to lose face in many things.

If we don't push this matter behind, it will happen.

Just let him do it by himself, and he doesn't know how long he will have to wait.

Does your father really not want to confer the title of second brother-in-law on you?

it's not true.

He just said it was lively.

In addition, you were scolded by your second brother-in-law, so your father must have nothing good to say.

At this time, we just did it without asking him any more questions.

For your father, it is actually a good thing.

Not only did you preserve your father's dignity, but you also did what you should do.

Even after your father found out, he cursed him on the surface.

But in fact, I am very happy about it!
You will feel special recognition.

With your father's temper, sometimes you need to obey him.

But sometimes, you can't follow him too much.

This degree needs to be mastered.

Some people play the bad side, and some people have to play the red side.

If our family is all in vain, then your second brother-in-law will have some ideas from now on and see the problems that our Ming Dynasty has.

I just don’t dare to say it anymore.

For our Ming Dynasty, it is definitely a particularly big loss. "

Hearing what Empress Ma said, Zhu Biao looked astonished.

He said to Queen Ma: "Mother, you should see clearly and think clearly!

If you hadn't spoken out about it, just let the child think about it.

Children can't imagine this level.

If one thing is not done well, it will delay the big thing! "

Not hearing what Zhu Biao said, Queen Ma smiled.

He stretched out his hand on Zhu Biao's forehead and tapped it gently.

"You will make your mother and I happy.

Don’t you know this?

You and your father are in this court, one of you is a bad guy, the other is a red face, and your dad is charging in front, fighting hard.

And you stayed behind to calm things down, appease the courtiers, and give them hope.

Contain them and prevent them from blowing up.

Don't think I don't know about this. "

Hearing what Empress Ma said, Zhu Biao smiled and said: "Mother, my child really can't hide anything from you.

However, the child did not tell lies about this matter.

What happened this time was different from those involving rewards.

Even if the child is a prince, this cannot be done carelessly.

I know my father won't care.

But children need to pay attention to some things.

The mother reminded the child at this time, which actually made the child let go of some worries in his heart..."

Hearing this, Queen Ma smiled and nodded on Zhu Biao's forehead: "Just do it, the world says it belongs to your father, but in fact it belongs to you too.

Isn’t it that the future of the world will still be passed on to you?
It’s not like you don’t know how your father treats you.

That means never being on guard.

Just do it.

If you do these things, your father will not only not be unhappy, but he will become happier.

You will feel that the eldest son of his family has grown up.

More and more like him. "

Hearing what Empress Ma said, Zhu Biao nodded with relief, and at the same time, his heart was filled with emotion and emotion.

My father really has nothing to say to me.

Throughout history, there are very few relationships between emperors and princes that are as good as those between the emperor and himself.

It can even be said that there is none at all!

The matter was settled.

Zhu Biao knew that his father needed to be alone at this time.

Calm down the complicated emotions caused by the second sister's death remonstrance to the father.

Therefore, he did not go to see his father...

"Bah! Dog! Bastard!

Too bad we are blind!
I was thinking of making you an earl before!

Seal it for you?
Shut it down!
In this life, you just stay there, farming and feeding pigs!
If you want to get our title, you have a good idea!
This count, please hurry up and ask your mother to take the imperial edict to Shuangshui Village and make your dog a Shuangshui Bo!

Let you salute your dog every day!

The serving dog!
Damn it! "

In the Wuying Hall, Zhu Yuanzhang was cursing and in an unbelievable mood!

……

"Sister, let me tell you something."

At night, in Kunning Palace.

After being busy until midnight, Zhu Yuanzhang, who had just come to sleep, looked at Queen Ma who had woken up and said aloud.

"What's going on?"

"I can imitate life again soon.

This time, the person who can be simulated is the third eldest son of our family, Zhu Gaochi, the unborn grandson.

And Lu Lan.

This time we are going to imitate Lu Lan.

See what Lu Lan is like.

The death of Xiongying, and the death of the eldest daughter-in-law in childbirth, were she behind the scenes and using despicable means? "

Empress Ma was still a little sleepy at first, but at this time, after hearing what Zhu Yuanzhang said, she suddenly lost all sleepiness!

"Lü Lan can simulate it now?

good! This is indeed good news!

When can it be simulated? now? "

Queen Ma looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and asked impatiently.

these days. She was also worried about this matter.

I have long wanted to imitate Lu.

See if she does these things.

If Lu really did it, then they could use some means in advance to avoid these things.

Don't let Lu continue to do evil like what Chongba saw in the future.

So that the fate of his family's hero and his eldest daughter-in-law could be changed.

It would be best if Lu didn't do these things.

In this case, he and Chongba could relax and clear Lu's suspicion.

In this case, from now on, the two of us no longer have to quietly guard against Lu as we guard against thieves.

If Lu really didn't do these things, then what Chongba and the two of them did was indeed unfair to the child.

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and said: "Not now, it will take three days.

Oh, it’s been less than three days now.

There are only a little more than two days left.

When we get the results of the simulation, we will definitely inform my sister of the news as soon as possible. "

Zhu Yuanzhang also knew that his sister was also particularly concerned about this matter.

So before Queen Ma could say more, she told the matter first.

Queen Ma nodded.

My family weighs eight and looks very rough.

In fact, he is very careful in many things.

For example, if you care about yourself, you will never lie.

As long as it concerns him, he doesn't notice many very small things. Chongba is more attentive than himself.

"By the way, Chongba, you didn't tell Biao about this, right?"

Queen Ma suddenly thought of something again.

He hurriedly asked Zhu Yuanzhang.

"No, how could I tell Biao'er about this in advance?"

Facing Queen Ma's question, Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head.

Said he would not do so.

Zhu Yuanzhang naturally knew why his sister looked at him and said such words.

This matter must not be discussed with Biaoer in advance.

Once something is said, it depends on Biao'er's character and level of attentiveness.

You can definitely detect something from this.

He and his sister are still unsure about the specific situation of this matter.

before the results of the simulation come out.

I don't know if it's good or bad at all.

So there is no need to talk to Biao'er about this matter first.

So as not to let Biaoer worry in advance.

If nothing went wrong, then it would be fine for both himself and the girl to know about it.

The truth is that Mr. Lu did these things because he was not a good person.

It's not too late to talk to Biao'er at that time.

After seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's answer, Queen Ma couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.

He became more satisfied with his own Chongba.

Chongbaxin is really meticulous and can really consider all aspects.

This is especially true for the things and people he cares about.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma said some words here again, and then went to sleep.

Zhu Yuanzhang had just slept with Queen Ma, and the next moment, there was already snoring.

When it comes to sleeping, Zhu Yuanzhang really has nothing to say.

Just sleep when you say sleep.

And as long as I fall asleep, it is a deep sleep, which is particularly fragrant.

This is probably an important reason why Zhu Yuanzhang has always been able to have such good energy to deal with things.

Not to mention anything else, just this ability to sleep will make many people envious!
Queen Ma lost her sleep.

Firstly, he had fallen asleep for a while, and secondly, his mind was disturbed by what Zhu Yuanzhang said about something that could simulate Lu's life.

I was thinking about what this would be like.

After thinking about it for a while, I finally fell asleep with my mind full of chaotic thoughts. I just hope that this matter can have a good result.

Otherwise, it would be really uncomfortable...

Early the next morning, after dinner, Mei Yin and Li Jinglong left Shuangshui Village on horseback and in a car.

Accompanying him were Princess Ningguo and some of the prince's personal military guards.

After walking for a while, we soon arrived at Cao Guogong's Mansion...

"Open the door! Open the door! I'm back!"

Li Jinglong jumped off the horse.

As soon as he arrived, he couldn't help shouting.

With some excitement and excitement.

In the past, what Li Jinglong disliked the most was staying at home.

Because he felt very uncomfortable staying at home.

Someone was always there to discipline him.

Either there is such a thing, or there is that kind of thing.

Where is the happiness that comes from outside?

But now, after living here in Shuangshui Village for a while.

Many of his ideas have changed.

And the most important thing now is that this time he returned with his second uncle and second cousin.

At the same time, he also brought a large basket full of sweet potatoes.

This is the best thing.

Even my uncle and the current Crown Prince didn't know how happy they were after learning about this incident.

I returned home at this time, bringing with me so many cherished things.

That must be more respectable!
In the past, he didn't like being at home very much because his grandfather was the eldest, his father was the second, and he was the youngest.

Always the one being disciplined.

Either they are being punished, or they are on the way to being punished.

Under such circumstances, it is natural that he is unwilling to return home.

But that's different now.

Now Li Jinglong is really proud!

This time, he really returned full of glory!

Naturally, the sound is as loud as it needs to be.

The people guarding the door were stunned for a moment when they saw Li Jinglong coming back.

Then his face was filled with joy.

"The young master is back! The young master is back!"

Someone immediately shouted!
When Li Jinglong came back this time, he did not notify anyone in advance.

Originally, Li Jinglong wanted to have someone come back early to give his grandfather and others a breather.

After all, this time, not only is he back, but his second uncle and second aunt are also back.

In this case, it is necessary to notify in advance, which will appear more solemn.

But Mei Yin didn't let Li Jinglong do this.

After all, he already regarded Li Jinglong as a person worth dating.

This time he went to visit Li Jinglong's home, and the person he visited was Yourong's uncle.

That is a very close relative.

Of course there is no need to do this in advance, it seems too polite.

Li Jinglong listened to Mei Yin's words and did not ask anyone to come back in advance to inform him.

That's why the gatekeeper was so excited and surprised at this time.

"Open the middle gate! Open the middle gate! Open the middle gate immediately!

This is not just me coming back, but also my second uncle and second cousin! "

Li Jinglong shouted.

Like a child who got something special and precious.

Can't wait to come back, just like showing off to parents.

Listening to Li Jinglong's greeting, these people from Duke Cao's Mansion quickly opened the middle door.

It was very grand.

Soon, such news spread throughout Cao Guogong's mansion.

Even the old Mr. Cao Guogong in the backyard knew about it.

After hearing that his grandson had returned, Old Cao Guogong Li Zhen paused on his crutches.

"He's back as soon as he comes back. This grandson is back and he's still waging such a big battle.

He is going home. How big a distinguished guest do you think he is?

Could it be that you still want us to go out to meet him?

This grandson, tell him to get over here quickly! "

Li Zhen cursed in her mouth.

But the whole person became energetic.

The mood seemed particularly good.

When people grow old, they always think about their descendants.

How can a grandfather not like his grandson?

Especially for such a big grandson.

Especially after Li Zhen found out that his eldest grandson had undergone great changes in Shuangshui Village over the past few years, which was very different from before.

He was even more happy when he heard that his eldest grandson had returned.

However, it is impossible for him to meet his eldest grandson.

But then, I heard that it was Princess Ning Guo who came with Mei Yin.

Li Zhen, who was still cursing at first, was immediately helped to stand up and walked outside with a cane.

No delay at all.

This is not just because of the identities of Mei Yin and Princess Ning Guo.

More importantly, it was because of Mei Yin himself.

Because of Li Jinglong, Li Zhen paid a lot of attention to Shuangshui Village.

I know a lot of things.

I understand that Mei Yin is a very capable person.

Far more capable than he originally thought.

His grandson followed Mei Yin. He saw this gratifying change and was happy in his heart.

Now that his niece-in-law came, how could he not welcome him?

"grandfather!"

"uncle"

"Uncle!"

As soon as Li Zhen walked out of the backyard, she saw Mei Yin, Li Jinglong and others walking over.

Li Jinglong called him grandpa, and Mei Yin and Princess Ningguo called them uncle.

"Uncle, why did you come out?
Yourong and I, two juniors, are not outsiders. We came to see you. Are you still so polite? "

Mei Yin stepped forward to help Li Zhen.

Li Zhen seems to be in good spirits.

However, he looks thinner than before.

He smiled and said: "You are here, and I will come outside to greet you no matter what.

It's just... now that people are old, their legs and feet are weak.

Just walked out and you are here. "

As he spoke, he took the crutch and poked Li Jinglong's leg, who was also supporting him with a smile.

"You kid, your second aunt, uncle, they came over, and you didn't say hello in advance?
You caught your father off guard!
If you say hello in advance, wouldn't it be easier for us to make some arrangements here or there? "

Seeing this, Mei Yin hurriedly said: "Uncle, I specifically didn't let Jinglong say anything.

I'm just afraid of causing trouble to you, uncle.

There is room for the two of us, and we are not outsiders. Coming here is just like going back to your own home.

Why is it so polite and troublesome?
Just get the same treatment as Jinglong. "

After hearing Mei Yin's words, Li Zhen let Li Jinglong go.

Let people arrange all the good things quickly.

And welcomed Mei Yin, Princess Ning Guo and others into the house.

Mei Yin respected Li Zhen very much.

This is not just because Li Zhen is older and is Li Jinglong's grandfather.

He is also the uncle of his little wife-in-law.

It was also because when he and his young wife got married, Old Cao Gong Li Zhen, his uncle, personally sent his young wife to Shuangshui Village to marry him.

Facing Mei Sizu who wanted to cause trouble at that time, his uncle went up to him without saying a word.

He suppressed Mei Sizu and left in despair.

Not afraid of offending Mei Sizu at all.

Even if his uncle doesn't take action, he has a way to get Mei Sizu away.

But I want to moisturize things silently like my old uncle did.

But it's not that easy.

There will definitely be a big fuss.

At such an important moment as getting married, there was such a big fuss.

In fact, it already seems very disgraceful.

It will disrupt the situation and spoil the fun.

Not to mention anything else, just for this point, I deserve to express my gratitude to my uncle.

It is worth remembering him for the rest of his life.

"Grandpa, I brought you something good this time!"

As Li Jinglong said that, he couldn't wait to run outside.

I personally brought a big basket in with a loud bang.

These are baskets of emerging sweet potatoes.

"See grandpa? This is good stuff!

The name is sweet potato.

It was planted by me, your grandson and me in the fields ourselves.

This is a fresh crop.

There are a lot of them in the fields of Shuangshui Village, and many people treat them as weeds and get rid of them.

Fortunately, my grandson and I have sharp eyes, and I can tell at a glance that this thing is special.

Along with my second uncle, I kept what I had in my field.

Later, the planting area was expanded.

He planted the few acres of land he was assigned to.

How about now?

Look at how much fruit this has produced!

My grandson is not just telling you, but the yield of sweet potatoes is amazing!
One acre of land can produce tens of thousands of kilograms! "

Li Jinglong's eyebrows were full of excitement, and he started talking to his father Li Zhen here.

Everyone seemed very happy.

Mei Yin and Princess Ning Guo looked at this scene with smiles on their faces.

I will definitely not expose it. I listened quietly to Li Jinglong talking to his grandfather here.

It can be seen that this is one of the few bright moments of the eldest nephew.

"Snapped!"

Before Li Jinglong could finish his words, he was interrupted by a cane.

"Your grandson, are you here to fool your father again?!"

Li Zhen originally listened with great interest, but after hearing Li Jinglong say that this thing has a yield of tens of thousands of kilograms per mu, she couldn't help it.

He raised his crutch and paused vigorously on the ground.

Then he poked Li Jinglong's leg, neither lightly nor harshly.

"Do you really think you and I are an old fool? Have you never farmed before?

I used to dig food from the soil to support a large family.

Are you telling me that this thing can produce tens of thousands of pounds? "

Whenever Li Jinglong said that this thing could produce a weight of thousands of pounds, Li Zhen cooperated with his eldest grandson and acknowledged the matter.

Let the eldest grandson have a good time.

But this bastard boy didn't act like he was guarding the door after he came back.

This thing actually weighed tens of thousands of pounds.

How is this possible?

He really has no way to cooperate!

Li Jinglong said: "Grandpa, my grandson really didn't lie, and he really didn't brag. This thing really has such a large output!"

Seeing this, Li Zhen couldn't help but snorted, and the sparse and gray beard on her chin also curled up.

You can tell at a glance that you don't believe Li Jinglong's words at all.

When Li Jinglong saw this, he suddenly seemed a little anxious.

"Grandpa, what I said is true, why don't you believe me?
If you don’t believe me, ask your second uncle! "

“Uncle, this thing can indeed produce tens of thousands of kilograms per acre.

But that's only on particularly good land.

Only when you have received careful care and are in good weather can you achieve...

According to normal land, one acre of land can produce four to five thousand catties.

That's the normal level.

This is early sweet potato yield.

If you plant sweet potatoes late, I'm afraid the yield will drop a lot..."

"Wha...what?
"You...what you said are all true?!"

Li Zhen, who originally didn't believe what Li Jinglong said at all, suddenly changed her expression at this time.

The whole person stood up excitedly.

Looking at Mei Yin, his cloudy eyes suddenly shone with light!
If Li Jinglong said this, he would naturally not believe it.

I feel like my grandson doesn’t understand anything and is just bragging!

But now, the person who said this is Mei Yin, so that is a different matter!

"Uncle, this is true.

The yield of this sweet potato is truly amazing.

My elder brother, Jing Long, and I made very accurate predictions on these.

The results obtained will definitely differ from the real data to a certain extent.

But overall, there won’t be much difference
How many plants do you guess the yield of this big basket of sweet potatoes is?
This is the yield of twenty plants. "

After hearing Mei Yin's words, Old Cao Guogong's expression suddenly changed.

His face was full of shock that could not be concealed.

Only... twenty plants can bear so much fruit?

This... this is really too amazing!

After confirming that what Mei Yin said was true.

Old Cao Guogong immediately came closer, squatted on the ground, and stroked these sweet potatoes.

Grinning.

But after a while, I couldn't help but burst into tears...

I don’t know what he thought or what he experienced...

Li Jinglong, who was originally very happy to come back and show off to his father, couldn't help but fall silent...

……

At noon that day, Mei Yin and Princess Ningguo had dinner here.

When eating, it was not only the old Duke of Cao, Li Zhen, who accompanied him.

Li Zhen also specially sent someone to call Li Wenzhong, Duke of Cao, who was on duty at the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion, back to accompany him.

This is a treatment that many people do not have.

After all, old Cao Guogong himself was very well-behaved and didn't like to get involved in all kinds of things.

I don't know how many distinguished people want to invite him to sit down, but they can't do it at all.

Needless to say, Li Wenzhong was one of the six founding princes of the country. He was in charge of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies and was in charge of the capital.

But now, when Mei Yin comes, these two generations of Cao Guogong personally accompany him.

The key is that Mei Yin is still very young.

This honor is truly beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

……

It wasn't until half an hour later that Mei Yincai and Princess Ningguo left the Duke Cao's mansion.

Go to Uncle Chengyi's Mansion on the other side of Liu Junshi Bridge.

On the way there, Mei Yin couldn't help but think about what he would say and do when he got there.

This time when he went to Liu Bowen's side, he went with a mission.

Be sure to do things perfectly and trick Liu Bowen into a trap.

Let him take the blame for himself.

If Liu Bowen doesn't take the lead in this matter, then no one else can.

But this matter is a test of skill.

It’s really hard to trick someone like Liu Bowen who has matured into a mature person!
……

In the Chunhe Palace, the crown prince's concubine Lu Shi was all smiles.

He seems to be in a good mood.

I don’t know what good things happened to me... (End of chapter)
