Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 552 eldest brother
The current Ming Dynasty is not the same as it was in the past. It is not necessary for the queen to lead the harem concubines and princesses to subsidize it, or to continuously reduce the expenses of the palace.

Although Lao Zhu and Xiao Zhu are relatively frugal in character and don't like luxury, the Ming Palace will not be drunk and dreamy.But when it came to eating and drinking, there was really no problem, especially when it was about Xiao Zhu.

If it was Lao Zhu himself, who had biscuits and a bowl of soup, it would be fine to deal with it, as long as he could eat enough.But if it is his descendants, there is no problem if they want to eat something good.

If it was about his eldest son, eldest grandson, or precious eldest grandson, Lao Zhu would not be stingy here.

Any best thing can be given, if there is no one in the palace, let the outside pay tribute, Lao Zhu will not be stingy.It's no problem for his precious great-grandson to eat delicacies from mountains and seas. Lao Zhu is not worried that little Zhu will overwhelm Daming. What he worries about is that his precious great-grandson will eat less or not eat well. Being able to eat is a blessing.

"Great-grandfather, we just read that it would be good if Duke Ying and Duke Zhongshan divided their troops." Xiao Zhu laughed and said, "It's just that Wu Gao's side is not good. If their partial division can push through, we Kaesong can be surrounded before winter."

Old Zhu patiently explained, "This division is crossing the sea after all. Not to mention the lack of people and horses, the food and grass supplies it brings are not as good as the land route. Our Daming navy is powerful, and we must also think about the wind and waves at sea. Besides. Well, the thieves father and son in Goryeo are not fools either, they know that our Ming master can go straight to Huanglong, and gather heavy troops to block it."

Xiao Zhu thought for a while, and then said, "We don't like Champion Hou's style of play. Champion Hou is too powerful, and he either wins or loses. We still like Changping Hou. We just play steadily and use force to overwhelm others. If If we have a Li Jing in Ming Dynasty, we will be Li Jing!"

Little Zhu is swollen, it's all because she wants to learn from Li Jing.

Probably because he has received many compliments in life and is considered to have some talent in martial arts, this idea is really bold enough.

Old Zhu laughed loudly and said, "Mr. Ying has some of the demeanor of Chang Yuchun back then, and Sapphire can be considered a bit similar. It would be an exaggeration to say that they are similar to Huo Qubing. For thousands of years, our Han family has also Just a champion."

Little Zhu was upset, and said, "For thousands of years, there was only one King Kaiping, and that was our great-grandfather. Without King Kaiping, there would be no grandmother, and without grandmother, there would be no father. Without us! King Kaiping is amazing, and so is Champion Hou!"

"Even we are not allowed to speak ill of him?!" Old Zhu said in awe, "At first we thought, you just don't allow people to speak ill of our Zhu family!"

It's better for Xiao Zhu to keep silent at this time, because if the city gate catches fire and the fish in the pond are accidentally caught, he can't afford it!
Little Zhu was not annoyed, and continued to smile with Old Zhu, he really didn't know how to be afraid.

After touching Little Zhu's head, Old Zhu said with emotion, "You little bastard, you are much more of a jerk than your father was when he was young."

"Our father is Zaohui. When he was a child, he was thinking of adults. We are not Zaohui, we are children." Little Zhu relied on Lao Zhu's favor and said confidently, "Great-grandfather, our father must be thinking about the dragon. Chair. We are different, we like great-grandfather so much, we are really close to great-grandfather, we just like great-grandfather."

Zhu Yunying was choked, and coughed several times before saying, "You bastard, you arranged us like this? If someone outside hears this and says you are unfilial, we will be unfilial too."

Old Zhu Ze said cheerfully, "Your father didn't kiss us at first, but with your great-grandmother and your grandmother. We remember that he was only one year old, and he kissed us when he knew we were the emperor. We Yin You're right, your father is thinking about our dragon chair. Yin'er is different from us, he really likes us."

"That's what we think too." Little Zhu said confidently, "We are all at this age, playing and studying all day long. , thinking about getting the navy to go there. Our father is not yet ten years old, and he is going to discuss with great-grandfather and grandfather about moving the capital!"

Looking at the beaming little Zhu, Zhu Yunying suddenly said, "Well, in a few days you will also stand upright and watch politics."

Little Zhu stopped talking immediately, and looked at Lao Zhu as if asking for help.Although he is big and generous, this kid doesn't know everything, and he still has some small thoughts and small ideas.

"Look at you!" Old Zhu was not happy, and criticized Xiao Zhu, "Yin'er is joking here, but you are in a hurry, what kind of words are you talking about!"

Well, Zhu Yunying, who is not human inside and out, thinks that she should have a meal, and it is better not to say anything.

As Xiao Zhu's absolute backer, Lao Zhu said, "Biao'er is different. It was a troubled time at that time. Let's not talk about driving away the Mongols. It would take a lot of effort to beat up Zhang Shicheng, let alone Chen Youliang. At that time, our brains could It's hard to say if you can't keep it, but I just want to be able to protect the people in the family."

After touching Xiao Zhu's head, Lao Zhu continued, "You are blessed to enjoy wealth and wealth. Your grandfather had to learn at that time. No matter how smart he was, we and your great-grandmother would pressure him to learn. He learned well. , can protect the people in our family, can restrain those arrogant soldiers, and let those people not have messy thoughts."

Little Zhu nodded solemnly, and said, "We know that our grandfather's qualifications are not as good as our father's."

Old Zhu was stunned for a moment, but he still said, "It's not the same. Your great-grandfather was also an outstanding man, unlike your father's Zaohui. Although your father knew it from birth, he also had a scheming heart. It is your father's Zaohui, which is good or bad. He He can understand immediately when he reads a book, we don’t need to take him to learn to read, he can understand it. It’s too early to be wise, and the mind is heavy.”

Little Zhu argued, "What's wrong with that? If we had been intelligent early, we wouldn't have been called elm-headed. We often couldn't figure out the relationship between the honorable family, and our father knew how to let go and how to deal with it." It's dealt with. Last time our second uncle came to ask for maidservants in Silla, and he also said that most of the people who went to Korea this time were our father's confidantes."

Zhu Yunying became anxious all of a sudden, and quickly asked, "Your second uncle came to ask you for a Silla maid? Where do you have a Silla maid?"

"Imperial merchants, there are quite a few caravans in the imperial court, and the second uncle knows that the great-grandfather gave us a warrant." Little Zhu said immediately, and he did not hesitate to betray Zhu Yunxi, "He also said that we should write a letter to the uncle, Zhang Yu's Our son is with us."

Old Zhu laughed loudly, and said, "Look, all of our descendants are not at a loss, and each of us knows some benefits. If we want to say that Yunxi likes Silla maidservants, let him make trouble. At most, it’s just a side concubine, and we can’t even call it a side concubine. The old king of Wang’s Koryo family is almost dead, and he is not worthy of our grandson.”

Among Lao Zhu's daughters-in-law, there are actually some 'ethnic minorities'. The famous 'Zhao Min' is the former Qin Wangfei, who is the main concubine.However, Zhu Yunying's second uncle obviously has nothing to do with 'Zhao Min', but he abused Zhao Min a lot.

Little Zhu thought the same way, and said to Old Zhu, "Let's ask Zhang Fu to write Zhang Yu's family letter. If we catch the prostitute of a noble family in Korea, we can show it to my second uncle. We also want to If it’s for opening the capital, there might be a royal family there.”

Zhu Yunying said dryly, "Now we are thinking about surrounding the Koryo King City before winter, and it will be difficult to fight in winter. Besides, it is winter when we have to pick up the clan, and it is time for the emperor to go to Korea. The emperor Grandpa, we have conquered a lot of land in Korea, and the emperor closed the country in the past and managed it all right, so we have to pay for their property."

Before Lao Zhu could speak, little Zhu became anxious, "That's impossible, our third princes all went to fight the land by themselves. Now that many lands in Koryo have been conquered, the imperial court sent people to manage them. That's the territory of our Ming Dynasty. .The other princes want to seal the country, go fight it yourself!"

Old Zhu hugged Xiao Zhu, and lightly patted Xiao Zhu's buttocks twice, "It's fine for your second uncle, but not for other princes? It's all broken bones and tendons, so don't bother." Petty. If it is defeated, it will be troublesome to manage it. Your father also said that if you want to seal the country, the family property of the palace will probably be emptied."

Zhu Yunying said with a smile, "Grandfather, it's not that we are stingy, or else it would be difficult to explain to the third uncle. The other emperor uncles have passed by, so they just picked up the ready-made ones. I guess our arrogant soldiers are not good at the other end." No less good deeds."

Lao Zhu also laughed, and some things were just tacit.As for little Zhu, he didn't understand for a while.

Obviously, Ming's army is not necessarily particularly well-disciplined, especially in foreign countries.What's more, now that Korea is going to be completely destroyed, the old forces also have to be cleaned up, which is also convenient for the next arrangement of the Ming Dynasty.

A veteran like Fu Youde naturally understands that even if the emperor doesn't have a clear order, there are some things that need to be revealed a little bit.

As for Xu Huizu, the uncle of the state at that time was also very stable in using troops and doing things reliably.It is enough for the emperor to mention it a little bit. Although Xu Huizu does not know how to do it himself, he does not lack some brutal generals and soldiers under his command.

"If Lao Chang is here, you don't have to worry about it." Lao Zhu said jokingly, "But this time to open the country for your uncle, it shouldn't be that we, Da Ming, take care of everything for them. If you empty your family, let's empty your family." , anyway, you have your own foundation, but you don't want to go too far, they still need some money after they pass."

Zhu Yunying was about to cry, and said to Lao Zhu, "Grandfather, the emperor's uncles are really not poor. Although the family is rich and successful, there are also those who like rich clothes and fine food. The salary of the imperial court can't be used up. All these years There are a lot of dividends and bonuses from the bank. Not to mention the grant of land, or his own business. It's that bastard Yunxi who still has a store under his own hands."

Xiao Zhu immediately said, "We know that Second Uncle has a restaurant, a cloth shop, and a silver shop in his home. A while ago, Second Uncle opened a pawn shop, and he dragged Third Uncle, Fourth Uncle, and Fifth Uncle. The prince's family also has shares."

Zhu Yunying looked at Lao Zhu and said, "A lot of people in our family know these things, and many things in the bank are done by the clan."

Old Zhu was stunned for a moment, as if he understood, "So, they are richer than us?"

"Wen Geng said it all, the gold in the treasury is so big, the second uncle melted a lot of gold, and cast it into such a big gold nugget that Wen Geng couldn't even hold it." Xiao Xiaozhu, a chatterbox, said immediately, "There is also silver. It is said that the second uncle's salary has been melted into silver ingots. We said that Wen Geng is so rich, and he wants our pens, inks, papers and inkstones."

Lao Zhu also couldn't laugh or cry, and said, "That's your second uncle's son, isn't that the virtue? He came to pay us a few days ago, and if we didn't pay attention, he gave us a jade bowl. Knowing that it is hidden in the crotch, do you really think we can't see it?"

"It's a rule among other people, and I want to take some out when I get to the palace." Zhu Yunying also complained, and said, "It's the same to go to our place to say hello, the queen's hairpin is missing, and that kid touched it out. It's better than his father's hairpin." You have to be promising, knowing that you can touch the decorations without dragons and phoenixes, so you pretend to ask us and the queen."

Little Zhu said again, "The last time we went to Daben Hall, we saw Wen Geng and Wen Qiang arguing in the hall, so we beat them. Wen Geng didn't cry, so we let him stand for half an hour. Wen Geng Que was still crying, and we didn’t dare to go back to the Hall of Harmony later, for fear of mother’s nagging. Wen Qian and his mother and concubine went to complain to mother.”

The smile on Lao Zhu's face immediately subsided, and Zhu Yunying was really dumbfounded.

"That's going to file a complaint, to plead guilty!" Zhu Yunying said angrily, "Wen Xi knows what he did wrong, and also knows that you punished him to hope that he will grow up. In the past, Wang used to plead guilty and thank you, but one was that she was incapable of discipline. , and the other one is to thank you for mentioning some words. Your mother has been waiting for you for a long time, and someone sent you over, and you are staying in Qianqing Palace."

A smile appeared on Lao Zhu's face immediately, and he said, "Our Yin'er is promising. He knows that his progress is not enough, and he reminds his younger brothers to follow suit. The queen also knows the general situation, and the master of the harem is also fair in dealing with things."

Zhu Yunying is not surprised that Lao Zhu has such an attitude, this is the attitude that Lao Zhu should have.

"My Yin'er did a good job. I will give you a wishful stick later. If your younger brothers and sisters don't make progress, you can punish them." Lao Zhu said with a smile, "And your uncles and princes, if you If you don’t make progress, don’t be polite.”

Zhu Yunying looked at Lao Zhu, and then said, "Uncle 24 likes to run around shirtless. Yin'er can't take care of it, so let's take care of it. When the time comes, Grandpa Huang shouldn't feel bad."

Lao Zhu immediately stopped talking. At the age of the crown prince, how big a deal can punishment be?But if Zhu Yunying were to deal with it, it would be considered a trivial matter, not much smaller.

So Silence, even if he only loves his eldest son and grandson, Lao Zhu doesn't care about other descendants at all.

As for some unscrupulous children and grandchildren, Lao Zhu has long been used to it. It's such a big deal, it's not worth dealing with!
