Chapter 332 Still Time

The buildings of the Taoist temple stand motionless in the thin mist among the mountains, there is no wind in the undulating mountains, and the clouds and smoke on the roofs seem to be still.There were no human signs around, and it was like a completely still place.However, there is still sound, and the pitch of Jiao Zheng Gongshang played by the strings varies slowly and melodiously. In the gap between the sounds of the piano, the noise of the wood of the piano body being scraped can also be heard.In addition, there were geese hooting that came up and down from somewhere, and some poultry should be fed in the Taoist temple.

This is the environment in which Zhu Yunqi lives.The Taoist Temple is difficult to walk on the rugged mountain road, and the view is full of mountains and forests, like a cage.However, it is still very easy to move around in the courtyard of the Taoist temple. Even so, Zhu Yunqi rarely even goes out of the house, and rarely sees the sun all year round.

Only very rarely does he feel bored occasionally, because as a person who has been taught by great Confucianism, there are too many classics to study, and he can also personally annotate ancient prose, these are things he is interested in; occasionally Interested in Go for a period of time, you can also play chess with the eunuch Cao Shen, forgetting to eat and sleep; rhythm, calligraphy, Danqing... you can also make alchemy in Taoist temples.

Live less toil, worry about food and clothing.But Zhu Yunqi is obviously very unhappy. If people can eat and be satisfied like animals, that would be great.

Countless past events and events that made him ashamed came to mind from time to time, making him tortured.He didn't go out all year round, and his cheerful mood aggravated this mentality. [

Too often time stood still for him, today was the same as tomorrow; only when he felt his safety was threatened was he felt a little bit, full of worry and pessimism.He seemed to be waiting for a certain moment, and he seemed to be just dawdling. At the age of 50, he still hasn't come out of his youth, and maybe he won't be able to get out of his old age.

Zhu Yunqi was originally a very proud son of heaven, born as the eldest grandson of the Taizu of this dynasty, this kind of noble birth is rivaled by everyone in the world; the day after tomorrow is a pampered living environment, he was educated by the most knowledgeable teacher in the world, and his cultural attainments are very high. high.Therefore, Taizu used the title of Hongwu, and he dared to use Jianwen as the title; after restoring the clothes of the Han family, one Wu and one Wen, he wanted to revive the empire and play the chapter of the prosperous age.

But the reality and the ideal are always far apart. He has only been on the throne for four years, and he was still in a state of civil war for most of the four years, and then he was kicked out of the throne.He has endless shame, endless hatred, no matter how jerk his emotions are, he can't exaggerate them.

He was completely defeated by an opponent who seemed to be very weak, and his self-esteem was greatly traumatized; this is not over, he saw hundreds of thousands of people died because of him, and more displaced; For more than [-] years, he saw King Yan's Wenzhi martial arts, the northern expedition to Mongolia, the southern expedition to Jiaozhi, the sea fleet spanning thousands of miles, hundreds of nations coming to court, compiling

Zhu Yundao: "Wen Biao has all the military power and real power. Will it be harmful to the prince in the future? Once I leave the mountain, I'm afraid it will be difficult to escape..."

"This..." Zheng Qia hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to answer this question.This kind of question cannot be answered by the minister, only Zhu Yun can understand it by himself, maybe he has already understood it.

"Wen Kui and some people may not agree." Zhu Yun said bluntly.

Zheng Qia said: "Mrs. Yao did not ask the prince to go to Huguang with the emperor. They also know that the prince has some misunderstandings and some estrangement, so they expressly asked the prince to put forward some requirements and conditions."

Zhu Yun pondered for a while, then turned to Zheng Qia and said, "It's up to you to see the prince, he just came back from Guangdong the month before last, so you have to deal with it."

"The minister leads the order."

Then Zheng Qia didn't meet the prince directly, but first met a few people who lived near the Taoist temple, and then saw the prince Zhu Wenkui.Zheng Qia used the dim sum machine to imply that Lord Jianwen had agreed to go out to ascend the throne, and his preconceived ideas made the prince realize that he could not force it.

In fact, even if the younger brother of the prince Zhu Wenkui is in power in the future, the situation of the prince will not be much worse than it is now. On the plus side, he might be able to become a real vassal king... what does he have as a prince now, except for a title of no real benefit, Hiding around like bandits and refugees, there is nothing.However, Zhu Wenkui was worried about his own safety on the one hand, and on the other, he was influenced by his queen mare, who had a deep grudge with Mrs. Yao.

Sure enough, after Wen Kui met Zheng Qia, Empress Ma tried her best to get Wen Kui to speak out, dispelling Jian Wenjun's idea of ​​leaving the mountain.Empress Ma thought that Yao Ji would never let her go if she had the chance, and she would rather finish playing with everyone than be controlled by her.

But Wen Kui and Queen Ma's mother and son have different ideas.Wen Kui was born as the prince of Jianwen, and he was young, just like Zhang Ning when he first learned about his life experience, he was very unwilling.

He said in front of Empress Ma: "Wen Biao was able to rely on a group of mountain people to raise troops in Huguang. Why couldn't I take advantage of this and wait to be controlled by others?" , As a result, you look at what Wenbiao has done. What things in this world are definitely not going to happen? Now the situation is better than before. The power of 'King Yan' was separated from the Yangtze River by the King of Han and Wenbiao. There is a great chance in the south. If I were in the south Raise troops in a certain place, and then march to Guangdong, gather the old troops there, join together, and make great achievements!"

Empress Ma tried to dissuade him, but Wen Kui couldn't listen to this matter, and he didn't want to listen to his mother's words. He was only thinking about raising troops: "Just as Wen Biao said that he wanted conditions, I want guns. Wen Biao repeatedly The defeated army depends on this sharp thing, I can get a batch of firearms and use it to start an incident... I also need a method of casting, in the future we will take up the territory and we will cast it ourselves..."
