Emperor Ming's grandson

Chapter 595: My Choice
Emperor Hongwu was undoubtedly a martial artist, and he didn't need any hesitation at all. This can be seen from the fact that he ended the troubled times and established the Ming Dynasty.The founding kings of all dynasties basically have no martial arts, and basically there is nothing that cannot lead troops.

Liu Bang, who is considered by some to be a rogue emperor, is not only good at knowing people, accepting advice with an open mind, and giving full play to the talents of his subordinates.He also led troops and went to battle in person. At most, his talent and ability in this area were not the strongest.

As for Yang Jian, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty who was a foreign relative, many people said that he usurped the throne of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and he also quelled the Yuchijiong rebellion and the Sima Xiaonan rebellion.Needless to say, Zhao Kuangyin in the Northern Song Dynasty, he was born in the army and became a general of the Later Zhou Dynasty so that he could have a chance to usurp the throne.

Emperor Hongwu was a martial artist, and Emperor Yingshi was actually a martial artist, at best he had no talent.

The successors trained by these two generations of emperors are now wearing gold armor and gold armor. Although it looks a little pocket-sized, this is the armor of children's clothing.But it doesn't matter at all, little Zhu is sitting majestically on the horseback at the moment.

Little Zhu looked at the school grounds and asked seriously, "Mr. Cao, who is that silver-robed young general?"

Cao Guogong Li Jinglong looked over and immediately replied, "Your Highness Qizuo, this person is Yu Zong, the grandson of Yu Tongyuan."

Little Zhu thought about it carefully, and asked, "But the Queen of Hejian County?"

Without the slightest hesitation, Li Jinglong replied immediately, "Return to Your Highness, that's right."

Yu Tingyu, Duke of Hejian County, was an extremely important force in Lao Zhu's early days.When Lao Zhu was about to seize the Jiangnan area, it was difficult to get across without a boat.It was at this time that Yu Tingyu led the navy to vote and captured Taiping, helping Lao Zhu establish a foundation.It's a pity that he died in battle and was posthumously named Duke of Hejian County.

And his two sons Yu Tonghai and Yu Tongyuan are also very promising.Yu Tonghai's official position was equivalent to the prime minister's Zhongshu Sheng Pingzhang Zhengshi, but he also died in the battle. He was only 38 years old at the time and had no heirs.

So Yu Tonghai's younger brother Yu Tongyuan inherited the official position, and Lao Zhu later named Yu Tonghai the Duke of Guo and Yu Tongyuan the Marquis of Nan'an.Yu Tingyu's youngest son, Yu Tongyuan, is the Marquis of Yuexuan.

In memory of the achievements of the Yu family, Lao Zhu bestowed 54 conferments on the Yu family during his reign. In addition to Yu Tongyuan, there were two other people in the Yu family who were granted the title of Marquis of Nan'an. .

However, about ten years ago, Yu Tongyuan was involved in Hu Weiyong's case in his early years. Although he was dead, he was still expelled.And it was during this period that Lao Zhu led Yu Tongyuan to fight against the rebels in Jianchang and made him a marquis for his meritorious service in building a city in Yuejuan.

However, this Yu Tongyuan also made small mistakes, so he lost the Marquis, and now he is struggling in Korea and wants to regain the Marquis.

Xu Yingxu said at this time, "Your Majesty, the Marquis of Yuejuan was exhausted and his eldest son Yu Yi died in his prime of life, his second son Yu Jing was seriously ill, and the remaining youngest son Yu Duan was an official in Jinyiwei. Not healthy."

Little Zhu looked at Xu Yingxu, and said, "Pass down the decree of my palace, order Yu Duan to move to Zuo Zhongyun in Zhan Shifu. Both are perfect, write it down and report it to the emperor."

Xu Yingxu was a little excited, the Yu family could be regarded as one of the early peaks of Lao Zhu's team, but after Yu Tingyu died in battle, the Yu family also leaned towards the Xu family.Back then, Yu Tongyuan and Yu Tongyuan were both Xu Da's generals.

After thinking for a while, Xiao Zhu said, "We remember that the **** boasted that the Yu family is all good ministers of Zuo Yun. Let the imperial hospital go to Yu's mansion, and must heal Yu Jing well, and don't hesitate to use medicine."

The little prince is usually naughty, and that is also in front of Lao Zhu and Xiao Zhu, and also in front of his own family.In the eyes of outsiders, the crown prince is still very majestic, and the crown prince is still very generous. It is said that he is more lenient than the Yingshi emperor in the early years.

It is said that in the early years, Emperor Yingshi treated the palace people leniently and would not punish them easily, but he hardly had much contact with Wu Xun.But the little prince is still very good to Wu Xun, which is obvious to all.

At this time, little Zhu said, "After all, Yu Xin is the heir of Hejian County, so he will not fall into the prestige of his ancestors. If he is good at bow and horse, if he works hard and serves the court, he may be able to regain his title."

Xiao Xiaozhu also said this on purpose, just to let some people hear it.

The Yu family used to have one general, two prime ministers and three marquises, but now that Yu Tongyuan is involved in the Hu Weiyong case, his descendants will have to work harder if they want to regain their title.And Yu Tongyuan was still working hard in Korea, paying the price for his misbehavior and ignoring the laws of the country in the past few years.

For the Yu family's children, rejuvenation is their great pursuit, and they really need to work hard.

Although Xiao Zhu seemed to have given some treatment to the descendants of the Yu family, giving them some opportunities and preferential treatment, he didn't say much.It's just that if they are given a chance, it depends on whether the descendants of the Yu family can compete and whether they can grasp the opportunity.

After all, no matter Yu Tongyuan or Yu Tongyuan, these two were expelled by Lao Zhu's decision, and it's not easy for Xiao Zhu to give them more opportunities now.What's more, it's okay to transfer a Yu Duan to the East Palace to serve. It's also okay for Xiao Zhuan to order the imperial doctors to go to Yu's house because of something that Xiao Zhu casually said. Old Zhu and Xiao Zhu definitely support it.

In the final analysis, this is a matter of benefit and no cost. It can help Xiao Xiaozhu buy people's hearts, and it can let Xiao Xiaozhu get more support from Xungui.

But if it really involves titles, Xiao Zhu has no right to speak now.Otherwise, with this kid's escape, maybe some of his cousins ​​are either princes or dukes, even the Marquis looks down on him.

Lao Zhu and Xiao Zhu, who were sitting in the Hall of Martial Heroes, watched the memorial and listened to some information about the school grounds sent back by eunuchs and guards from time to time. Both of them were full of smiles, and they were quite proud.

Old Zhu looked at Zhu Yunying, and said with a smile, "This is Biaoer's grandson after all, and this way of buying people's hearts is superb. Let's say, this little thing is better at buying people's hearts than you."

Zhu Yunying was unhappy, and retorted unhappily, "Grandpa, we didn't go to the court or deal with Wu Xun in the early years, otherwise we must have this method. Grandpa, tell yourself, let's go to the court early. During the years in the palace, no matter if it’s a member of the palace or the clan, who wouldn’t say that we are lenient and benevolent, just like the emperor’s grandmother?!”

Old Zhu smiled even more when he heard that, and said, "That's true. You taught Grandmother Ni really well. You look like she loves the people like a child and treats the palace people leniently. This is how you look like us when you become the emperor. "

"Who made us the blood of the old Zhu family, just like our father, only people who don't know us say we are generous." Zhu Yunying smiled and said, "But we are just like our father, when we are ruthless and decisive. I’m sure I won’t soften my heart, but we treat our people well.”

Lao Zhu was even happier. Lao Zhu was often harsh towards nobles, civil and military officials.But Lao Zhu has always been very kind to the people of Li, and this is also true love for the people like a son.

Looking at Lao Zhu, Zhu Yunying said, "Since this is the case, then Yin'er's Donggong decree, we will approve it here?"

Lao Zhu nodded, and then joked, "Now you know how difficult it was for us? There are some things we don't like, and your father and you insist on agreeing. Then what can we do? We want to protect you, even if we don't like it. I can only pinch my nose to recognize it."

Zhu Yunying doesn't think so, he knows the whole thing, "Grandpa Huang, our father had disputes with Grandpa Huang a lot in the early years, and Grandpa Huang often forbade it. Things that Grandpa Huang allows are good things."

"A good thing?" Old Zhu was unhappy, blowing his beard and staring and said, "Talk about it yourself, if you hadn't pushed for the relocation of the capital, you could have done it?"

Zhu Yunying didn't take the blame, he said confidently, "It's really not our instigation, that is, the emperor's grandfather and our father like to talk about us, and those who don't know think we did it. Even if we don't say it, the emperor Both grandpa and father are going to move the capital."

This is an absolute fact. Don't look at Zhu Yunying's jumping up and down on the matter of moving the capital, it seems to have a very important role.But at most, it can be considered as a push forward, because Lao Zhu and Da Zhu had the idea of ​​moving the capital a long time ago, and Zhu Yunying at most just pushed the boat along with the flow and played a little bit.

It has been rumored that the relocation of the capital has been carried out by Emperor Yingshi for so many years, and this is why Lao Zhu contributed to the flames.In the final analysis, it is to increase Zhu Yunying's prestige, as if Zhu Yunying, who is in his teens, is about to take on the task of governing the world.

It’s not easy for Lao Zhu to say anything. There are some things outsiders don’t know, but Xiao Zhu knows. Xiao Zhu is starting to be serious, and Lao Zhu actually doesn’t have much to do.

But in an instant, Lao Zhu found a reason, "Then we are definitely not happy about cutting down the feudal clan. If you hadn't been making trouble all the time, if you hadn't been messing around, would we have accepted this matter? If not We love you, we have already cleaned up for you!"

This time Zhu Yunying will be silent, because Zhu Yunying really has no confidence to refute this matter, and Zhu Yunying is indeed in charge of this matter.Even Da Zhu seemed to be a little moved back then, but he was too embarrassed to mention it in front of Lao Zhu.

In Zhu Yunying's view, enfeoffing feudal kings would be a reversal of history.Not to mention that the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty were different from those of the early Western Han Dynasty in that they did not have much real power.

But in fact, the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty also had military power in their hands, let alone only the three guards of the vassal kings.In history, Zhu Di borrowed troops from King Ning after the surprise army. At that time, King Ning Zhu Quan had [-] armored soldiers and [-] chariots. Zhu Quan had only been in power for about ten years!

Seeing that Zhu Yunying seemed to be short of breath, Lao Zhu continued, "How old were you when you raised the feudal clan? We remember that those people called you grandson to please us, but you hadn't been canonized as grandson by us at that time! No! Even a ten-year-old boy dares to mention these important national events!"

The ability to pretend to be a grandson, Zhu Yunying is so good at it, "That is also our family affairs, family affairs, of course we have to pay more attention to it, we will take over sooner or later. Besides, we are not caring grandchildren, here you go Sending a caring great-grandson, Grandpa Huang is not bad."

Lao Zhu was immediately happy. For Lao Zhu in his later years, the biggest lack of emotion is that Lao Zhu can be happier when he is in front of his grandson and great-grandson.

As long as Zhu Yunying makes a fuss, as long as little Zhu makes a fuss, the current old Zhu can definitely go crazy. These two are the only ones that Lao Zhu thinks he cares about in this world.

The two were chatting, and they were also paying attention to some things on the school grounds.In fact, it's not just the Hall of Martial Arts who is concerned, Xu Miaoqing, who is holding her chubby young son in the East Palace, also asks people to inquire about Xiao Zhu's performance from time to time.

As for outside the palace, countless warriors are standing on tiptoe.Although there are still many martial arts in Goryeo, their families in Yingtianfu are all here.The crown prince is now personally presiding over the martial arts evaluation, which deserves much more attention than the usual martial arts evaluation.

In the past, the Mansion of the Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth Army and the Ministry of War presided over it. In many cases, it was just a formality.

The Ministry of War, from the founding of the Ming Dynasty to the present, although the Ministry of War can slightly restrict the Five Armies Dudufu.But in fact, everyone also understands that the Ministry of War is often bullied by the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies and dare not say it out loud.

This trip was different, the crown prince was there to preside over the evaluation of martial arts, if he performed better, he might be noticed by the crown prince.

Wu Xun also has pursuits, and Wu Xun also has some rich and idle people, or high-ranking and powerful people.Many martial arts titles are not hereditary titles, and they will continue to be degraded. They also hope to make contributions and be in the heart of the emperor.

To leave a good impression on Xiao Zhu is the thought of many Wu Xun families.Especially now since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the second generation of Xun has fully come to power, and many members of the third generation of Xun have emerged.For the fourth generation of Xun, some people are about to start to exert their strength slowly.

This time, those who appeared in front of Xiao Zhu were basically the third and fourth generations of Xun. These people also felt that if they were favored by the Crown Prince, they would have more opportunities.

After all, everyone is not a fool. After all these years, no one knows that the crown prince has a special status.In the early years, Emperor Yingshi did not follow the rules of the old Zhu's family to name him. The current crown prince was canonized immediately after Emperor Yingshi ascended the throne.

The two fathers and sons of Emperor Yingshi basically came here to let Lao Zhu break his own rules. Such things are indeed not one or two.

Some people are happy and some are sad, because the crown prince seems to have no intention of hiding some of his views.The most important thing is that some decrees of the prince or emperor's decree are heard from time to time in the palace, and it is obvious that the performance is good.

In fact, everyone is also very clear that although the Ming Dynasty still has occasional wars, it is true that many martial arts have lost their blood, and some martial arts families have also lost the foundation of their lives.

If others perform well, they can only be envious.The children and grandchildren on my side are not up to date, so I can only think of other ways, or continue to eat and wait for death, and enjoy the wealth, so don't have any other thoughts.

Such things are normal, all of them are chosen by themselves, and no one else can blame them!
