Ming Dynasty: A hundred-year-old immortal cultivator, Zhu Yuanzhang’s biological father

In the imperial study, Tang He and Xu Da covered their faces, and their faces were covered with bruises.

"Your Majesty, why is this?"

"Did the two of us do something wrong to make His Majesty angry?"

The two looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with aggrieved expressions.

"Humph! From now on, you are not allowed to tell that kid Xiongying about our past."

"I didn't say that!"

"I never said that!"

Tang He looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with an innocent face.

I really didn't say anything.

"Your Majesty, I don't have any either!"

"You still say you didn't?"

"You were the one who spread the rumor about Mr. Liu."

Zhu Yuanzhang glared at Xu Da.

"No! Your Majesty!"

"Xu Da said, why did you hit me?"

"We...we are just giving you a reminder."

"Then you don't have to hit me, right?"

"I did not say anything."

Tang He felt so wronged!

"Alright, alright!"

"I'll give you a hundred taels of gold, okay?"

Zhu Yuanzhang knew he was in the wrong and could only compensate with money.

Tang He didn't say anything else and just got beaten for nothing.

Who can I talk to to explain this?

He was beaten so badly that his body was covered with bruises. How could he go out and face people?

After all, he is a duke!
"okay!"

"It's none of your business!"

"Let's go back!"

The two had no choice but to retreat.

As soon as they left the imperial study, Tang He pulled Xu Da aside.

"Xu Da, you old boy."

"Why are you talking to His Royal Highness about those things?"

"It made me get beaten up along with you."

"Calm down, old man."

Xu Da hurried to comfort him.

"I can't get over this anger. This is none of my business."

"I didn't say anything nonsense. Now I'm involved. How do you think this matter can be resolved?"

"Old friend, didn't His Majesty give you one hundred taels of gold as compensation?"

"Yes! But it was given to me by His Majesty."

"It has nothing to do with you. You spread rumors everywhere, damaging the reputation of His Majesty and causing me to suffer an undeserved disaster."

"You just want to walk away? No way!"

Xu Da was helpless. This old guy wanted compensation!
"Go, go, go!"

"Then tell me, what do you want?"

"hey-hey……"

"Your blood horse..."

"impossible!"

"Don't even think about it."

Xu Da refused immediately.

"Old man, do you want to deny it?"

"That's it. You want to take my Ferghana horse?"

"You're pretty good at it, huh?"

"Do you think I'm stupid?"

"no!"

Xu Da waved his hand to refuse.

"That!"

"Then you can buy me a drink, okay?"

"hey-hey……"

"That's pretty much it!"

Hearing this, Xu Da finally smiled.

"I want to go to Zuixianlou!"

"Row!"

"Today I'm going to make you drink until you pass out."

"Tsk! Just you?"

"Yo huh? Not convinced?"

"Walk?"

"go!"

The two of them set off as planned, but they never expected to run into Zhu Biao when they turned a corner.

The two of them saluted quickly.

"Uncles, what are you doing...?"

Zhu Biao saw the injuries on the two men's faces and asked in confusion.

The two of them were embarrassed for a while.

"Uh……"

"What then?"

"Your Highness, we were just riding horses with His Majesty and we accidentally fell."

"Yeah!"

"I fell by accident."

How could two great generals who had spent their entire lives in military service and had survived a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood fall off their horses?

What about lying to a fool?

Zhu Biao could tell at a glance that he must have been beaten by Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Uncles, follow me to the East Palace."

"I have medicine!"

"Uh no thanks!"

"We can just go home and apply some medicine."

"How can this be done?"

"You are all Dukes of the Ming Dynasty. How can you face people when you go back like this?"

"Just follow me to the East Palace to apply the medicine!"

"Take a break and go back!"

The two men couldn't persuade Zhu Biao, so they had to follow him to the Eastern Palace.

..........................................

East Palace!

At that time, Zhu Xiongying was playing with the dog in the yard and saw the imperial physician coming.

Very confused!

So I followed him!
As soon as I got there, I saw Tang and Xu Da applying medicine.

"Grandpa Xu, Grandpa Tang!"

"What are you...?"

When the two saw that it was Zhu Xiongying, they were furious.

It was this kid who informed Zhu Yuanzhang, otherwise he would have been beaten.

However, although he was unhappy, he could not show it because of Zhu Xiongying's identity.

"Nothing, nothing!"

"I fell accidentally while riding a horse."

"You two are truly worthy of being the Dukes of the Ming Dynasty who have experienced many battles."

"Even when he fell, he fell so solemnly."

"Hero!"

"Say less."

"Please take care of the two Dukes for me. I have something else to do."

Finished!

He said hello to Tang He and Xu Da and left.

After Zhu Biao left, Zhu Xiongying asked the imperial physician to leave.

"Grandpa Xu, Grandpa Tang!"

"Your injuries were caused by Old Zhu, right?"

"Your Highness, all this is thanks to you!"

Xu Da said unhappily.

"hey-hey……"

Zhu Xiongying scratched his head in embarrassment.

"As an apology, you eat this."

"I promise that the wound on your face will heal immediately."

Zhu Xiongying handed two rejuvenation pills to the two men.

The two looked at the pill in Zhu Xiongying's hand in confusion.

"Your Highness, what kind of medicine do you have?"

"Is it really as magical as you say?"

Tang He asked doubtfully.

"That's not the case!"

"Uncle Wen Zhong took this pill of mine when he was dying."

"Look at him now, he's full of energy."

Before Zhu Xiongying could finish speaking, Xu Da took the rejuvenation pill and swallowed it in one gulp.

Not long!
The bruises on my face disappeared instantly, and there was no pain at all.

Tang He was shocked when he saw this scene.

"Really okay?"

As he said that, he quickly took the pill and swallowed it in one gulp.

The wound on his face disappeared instantly.

"It's really healed!"

“It doesn’t hurt at all!”

The two of them hurriedly bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for the medicine!"

Zhu Xiongying waved his hand: "You're welcome!"

"Grandpa Xu, Grandpa Tang!"

"Do you want revenge?"

Hear this!

The two of them were stunned!
Quickly shook his head!

"No no no no!"

"How can this be done?"

"That's your majesty!"

"He is also your Highness's grandfather!"

"No, no, no!"

"Tsk! What are you afraid of?"

"What's the big deal about fighting with that old Zhu?"

Zhu Xiongying disagrees.

"Your Highness, that is extremely disrespectful!"

"No, no!"

"I want to live a few more years!"

Tang He waved his hands quickly.

"Grandpa Tang, don't be so timid."

"Wasn't he just a soldier before?"

"You will be a thousand commander by then!"

Tang He frowned!

How come this little bastard is so brave?
"Don't worry, I'll do the work."

"I promise not to tell anyone."

"What do you want to do, Your Highness?"

Xu Da blurted out.

"Xuda!"

"Don't worry, Grandpa Tang. This isn't a rebellion. What are you afraid of?"

"rest assured!"

"All you need to do is tell me about the embarrassing things that happened to Old Zhu when he was a kid."

"It would be best if he were like Liu Caizhu and the others. I'll have the Empress Dowager deal with him!" "Empress?"

"Your Highness, if you say so, I will be more excited."

Tang He gave a wicked smile.

"hey-hey……"

"Grandpa Tang, do you have any information?"

"Have!"

“A lot!”

"Say it quickly!"

Tang He looked around and found nothing unusual.

"At first, we were a group of people herding cattle for a landlord, and then we ate the cattle."

"You know all about this, right?"

"Yeah. I know!"

Zhu Xiongying nodded.

"Actually!"

"There's more to come!"

"The piece of beef that His Majesty was eating was not cooked through, so he ate it in a hurry."

“I ended up having diarrhea!”

"It was in the mountains, the grass wasn't very tall, and there were no trees."

"In the end, he wiped his butt with a stone. He said he even accidentally scratched it."

puff...

"Hahaha……"

Zhu Xiongying burst into laughter when he heard this.

How miserable!

"Hearing you say that, I remembered one!"

"When we were young, we were poor and had no money to buy fruit, so we went to the next village to steal fruit from people."

"We were discovered later and we all ran away, leaving only your grandfather hanging in the tree."

"Later he found himself surrounded, so he jumped into the pigsty."

"He opened the door and ran out riding on a pig."

"Riding a pig?"

"Damn! Old Zhu is quite brave!"

It all feels like a picture!

"Grandpa Xu, what about Old Zhu peeping at people taking baths?"

"This one……"

"hey-hey……"

"Let me tell you!"

Tang He, who was standing by, volunteered.

"He not only peeked at the second daughter of Mr. Liu, but also peeped at the nun bathing."

"nun?"

Zhu Xiongying looked at Tang He in surprise.

"Have you forgotten that your grandfather once became a monk in Huangjue Temple?"

"Ah, yes, yes!"

"That's what happened!"

"There is a nunnery next to Huangjue Temple!"

Zhu Xiongying immediately asked someone to bring tea and melon seeds.

Drink tea and listen to Tang He talk!

Xu Da, who was standing by, was terrified when he heard this.

Good guy!
This old guy Tang He is even more cruel than me!

It seems that this old guy is really resentful...

But think about it!

No one would feel happy if they got beaten up for no reason.

I don’t know how long it’s been!

Tang He just finished speaking!

"Your Highness, a group of beautiful women have recently been sent as tribute from foreign countries."

"According to your Majesty's personality, you will definitely go to visit me."

"You secretly..."

Xu Da looked at Zhu Xiongying with a sly smile on his face.

Zhu Xiongying immediately understood.

"hey-hey……"

"Grandpa Xu, I understand!"

"Xu Da, you are still the bad guy!"

"Don't you want to?"

"I think!"

Tang He grinned.

The three of them laughed together, and the laughter was exactly the same as the villains on TV.

A "shocking" and "vicious" conspiracy loomed over Zhu Yuanzhang.

..........................................

In the imperial study room!

Zhu Xiongying brought Lan Yu into the imperial study!

"What are you doing here, little bastard?"

"I want revenge!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said unhappily.

"What are you thinking about?"

"Am I that kind of person?"

"Isn't it right for a grandfather to teach his grandson?"

"Oh?"

"You little bastard, would you have such an idea?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at him in surprise.

"of course!"

"I came here this time to talk to you about the future of my Ming Dynasty."

"The future of Ming Dynasty?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was very confused.

"What do you want to say?"

"Who is the biggest enemy of our Ming Dynasty now?"

"Does this need to be said?"

"It must be the grassland!"

Zhu Yuanzhang blurted out without even thinking.

"There will be one more soon!"

"What do you mean?"

"You don't mean to say that the Northern Yuan Dynasty wants to say that the Qipchaqs are also attacking?"

The Golden Horde was founded in 1243 by Batu, the second son of Genghis Khan's eldest son Jochi.

It is one of the four khanates!

Generally speaking, they also belong to a branch of the Northern Yuan Dynasty.

Zhu Xiongying shook his head: "The enemy I'm talking about is not in the west, but in Liaodong."

"Liaodong?"

"You mean the Jurchens?"

"That's right!"

"They have a tribe that is rising rapidly now. If we let them grow stronger, they will become stronger."

"Once they unify the various Jurchen tribes, they will inevitably become another major threat to the Ming Dynasty."

"You said that the Ming Dynasty is facing two powerful opponents at the same time. Is the Ming Dynasty in danger?"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.

"You're right!"

“We really can’t let them become too powerful.”

"So you came here this time to ask Lan Yu to take command and pacify Liaodong?"

"That's right!"

"Once Liaodong is stabilized, we can not only deal with the grasslands, but also contain Goguryeo."

"Kill two birds with one stone!"

"The Lee Seong-gye you mentioned earlier, he now controls the power of Goguryeo."

"Let him come to Ming and use powerful military force to intimidate them."

"He will not dare to act rashly, so that the Ming Dynasty can conquer Liaodong with peace of mind."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded!

"it is good!"

"Then do as you say!"

"Sapphire!"

"How many people do you want?"

"Your Majesty, one hundred thousand!"

"Add the 200,000 from Liaodong, 300,000 will be enough!"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.

Three hundred thousand may sound a bit much, but if you want to completely pacify Liaodong, it is not a lot.

Although the Jurchens during this period were weak, they were also brave.

Moreover, they not only had to deal with the Jurchens, but also had to prevent the Northern Yuan Dynasty from taking advantage of the situation.

If they launched a surprise attack while the Ming army was fighting the Jurchens, the Ming army would be in danger.

Under attack from both sides!

It is very likely that they will lose control of Liaodong.

That’s a vast territory!

It hurts so much to lose something!

"it is good!"

"You go to the Five Military Commandery to select people!"

"We will ask the Ministry of Revenue to raise food and fodder for you."

"Yes!"

Lan Yu slowly retreated.

"Old Zhu, quickly ask the Ministry of Industry to improve the quality and output of steel."

"This is how we can make the AK47. With it, our Ming Dynasty will be invincible."

"We've already asked them to hurry up, so don't rush them. This is not an easy task."

Zhu Yuanzhang said unhappily.

"Go, go, go!"

"That's okay, I'm leaving!"

"and many more!"

"What's the matter?"

Zhu Xiongying turned around and said calmly.

"Since you mentioned this, I want to ask you something."

"Do you have any other sharp weapons?"

"A sharp weapon?"

"What weapon?"

"You have muskets, but don't you have cannons?"

“These are firearms!”

Zhu Xiongying shook his head: "No!"

"Then the old immortal didn't give it to you?"

"I'm not his biological son!"

"You really don't?"

"no!"

Zhu Xiongying shook his head.

"Really?"

"If I lie to you, I'll become an orphan!"

"Hey? You little bastard."

"What did you say?"

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately became angry.

"I originally thought that if you had it, I would let you go to Qinhuai River to play for a month."

"I promise not to cause you any trouble within this month."

"I didn't expect you didn't, so forget it."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Xiongying's eyes lit up. (End of this chapter)
