Hongwu Daming: Why hasn't my son rebelled?

Chapter 1 Beginning: Zhu Di Calls My Brother

Chapter 1 Beginning: Zhu Di Calls My Brother

In the seventh year of Hongwu, the first month, Yingtianfu Forbidden City.

Zhu Qi, who was wearing green clothes and green clothes, was sitting on a chair, looking at the warm spring flowers blooming in front of him through the vermilion lacquered window lattice, he had to accept the facts before him.

He has crossed, and has been crossing for a month.

Of course, this month is not just sitting in a daze all day, he figured out three things.

First, he became the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, the third son of Zhu Yuanzhang, Liao King Zhu Qi, who was fifteen years old. (It’s enough for everyone to understand the coined characters next to the wooden characters of Qifang, so I won’t explain much.)
As for how the third prince Zhu Yan in history changed his name to Zhu Qi and became the king of Liao, Zhu Qi didn't care too much. After all, people have traveled through time, so this kind of thing is not important anymore.

Second, he now lives in the Forbidden City of Yingtianfu, which is the Nanjing Forbidden City of later generations, where the current capital of Ming Dynasty is located.

Third, my fief is in Liaodong. With my current level, I will die as the king of Liaodong in the place of the Fourth World War.

Zhu Qizheng was worried about his future, when a young man shouted from outside the house:
"Third Brother!"

Seeing the person coming, Zhu Qi unconsciously straightened his back to show his respect.

An excited young man ran over, dressed similarly to Zhu Qi, and his name was Zhu Di.

He also has another name in later generations, the only emperor in history who has been sealed as a wolf, Ming Chengzu!
But now he is not the emperor, but his younger brother.

"Your Highness, please keep your voice down, King Liao is still recovering from his illness."

An internal official and eunuch trotted over, out of breath, saw Zhu Qi sitting in the bedroom, not lying on the bed, hurriedly said to Zhu Qi in a panic:
"His Royal Highness, the imperial physician is entrusting you to recover from a serious illness and stay in bed more to recuperate."

Zhu Qi waved his hand:

"The king is fine, you can go down."

The eunuch hesitated for a moment, replied "yes", bowed and retreated.

At this time, Zhu Di was only 14 years old, with an immature and youthful face, and with his robe lifted, he sat beside Zhu Qi, first poured him a cup of tea, and then said:
"Third brother, you look much better. Years ago, everyone in the Tai Hospital said that third brother was dying. I'm really afraid that you won't be able to survive."

Good guy, if you can talk, talk more.

But looking at Zhu Di's concerned eyes, Zhu Qi couldn't help but say:
"Actually, I didn't make it through..."

"Third brother can make jokes all the time, aren't you happy to sit here?"

While laughing out loud, Zhu Di poured himself a cup of tea, drank it in one gulp and continued:
"Third brother, you don't know. After the eldest brother knew that your health has improved a lot, he was so happy, but he was too busy. He wanted to visit you a few days ago. When you came here, you were sleeping. The eldest brother didn't bother you and left again. It's gone. It's going to be so busy again, I can't even see anyone."

When Zhu Di mentioned his elder brother Zhu Biao, the memory of Zhu Biao flashed in Zhu Qi's mind.

I have to say that Zhu Biao is really charismatic. Even Zhu Qi, who traveled through time, recalled the scene where Zhu Biao took care of his younger siblings, and couldn't help but praise him as a good brother.

Zhu Yuanzhang has been fighting outside all year round, and the children born later can be said to be all brought up by Zhu Biao, the eldest brother.

"The eldest brother is the prince, so it is right to share the worries of the father."

Zhu Qi said casually, but Zhu Di sighed and said:
"Hey, I really want to share my worries. Uncle Xu was defeated in the battle of Lingbei. I heard from my elder brother that it was the first time that Uncle Xu lost a battle. This Beiyuan Wang Baobao is too powerful. I will go to Beiping when I wait. Fight against Wang Baobao!"

The Uncle Xu mentioned by Zhu Di is naturally Xu Da, the god of war of the Ming Dynasty, and the Lingbei battle was the second war against the Beiyuan Dynasty by the Ming Dynasty, and this was Xu Da's only defeat in his life.

Wang Baobao was the strongest general at the end of the Yuan Dynasty. Wang Baobao was a Chinese name, and his real name was Kuokuo Timur.

However, Wang Baobao was defeated most of the time, but he was like the undead Xiaoqiang. Every time he failed, he could always pull a group of people to make a comeback. Beiyuan's ability to survive until now was all due to Wang Baobao.

Zhu Qi looked at Zhu Di's gritted teeth, and gave a thumbs up:

"Zhu Di, as expected of you, with you in Daming, I feel much more at ease."

Zhu Di was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect Zhu Qi to boast so blatantly, he felt a little proud, and said with a shy face:
"Actually, I'm here today mainly to return books. By the way, are there any new ones?"

As Zhu Di said, he took out a comic book from his bosom whose material was obviously different from this era.

All I saw was a landscape painting on the cover, a heroic man in a dragon robe looking at the mountains and rivers in the distance.

On the smooth plastic cover, there are several large characters written in vigorous and powerful fonts: "Ming Shanhe".

The author column reads: Zhu Qi.

Zhu Qi saw this comic book that he had published in his early years, and quickly took it over, stuffed it into his arms, and at the same time pulled Zhu Di's head, and the two of them slammed their heads under the table. Zhu Qi asked in a low voice:

"No one else read this book except you?"

"Third brother, don't worry, I didn't show the eldest brother! But third brother, you are too wise and powerful in drawing the father, are you sure you won't show this book to the father? He must be very happy."

As soon as Zhu Qi heard Zhu Di's words, he immediately threatened viciously:
"You dare to show my father, don't even think about reading my cartoons in this life."

Zhu Di showed a look of horror:

"Don't dare, I won't tell if I kill you. But this book, I saw my father learn the Yi Jin Jing in Huangjue Temple, and then defected to the rebel army, and it will be gone later."

Zhu Qi straightened up and gave Zhu Di a look:
"Go and wait for me outside the door."

Zhu Di understood, and hurriedly retreated outside the door.

Only then did Zhu Qi return to the back room, and took out a big bulging backpack from the bed next to the pillow.

This was the travel backpack that Zhu Qi carried when he went out to collect wind before crossing, but he didn't expect that after falling into the water and crossing, this backpack came along with him.

The "Ming Shanhe" comic book was put in the backpack, and there were only two copies in total. It was his early work, and it was impossible for Zhu Di to get it by accident.

But the most valuable thing in this backpack is actually the laptop and the solar charger.

Zhu Qi tried it, the computer works, and the charger also works, and as a cartoonist, there are all kinds of data stored in the computer. After all, as a cartoonist, you must have a wide range of research. After all, good comics A reasonable plot is also required.

Zhu Qi was not in the mood to carry out these materials from the laptop before.

After all, the month I just traveled through was a month full of confusion, apprehension and fear.

Now that he is familiar with the life of the prince of Ming Dynasty, he will be at ease now that he has come, at least he has not crossed into a Japanese who lives a bad life.

Go back and transcribe all the materials, not to mention internal combustion engines for one year, ironclad ships for two years, Maxim for three years, and global dominance for four years, but some of them are more or less useful.

In addition to comic books and laptops, there are some things necessary for outdoor survival, but Zhu Qi didn't pay much attention to these gadgets.

Zhu Qi took out the second chapter of "Ming Mountains and Rivers" he drew from his backpack, and then carefully stuffed the backpack back.

Only then did he go outside and open the door, Zhu Di saw the second chapter of "Ming Shanhe" in Zhu Qi's hand, he hurriedly took the comic book, and praised:

"Third brother, you have the ability to draw, what kind of painter will my father invite to paint portraits for our family, you just pay for it all."

Zhu Qi raised his hand dumbfounded and patted Zhu Di on the shoulder:
"Dare you want me to be a painter?"

"Don't dare."

Zhu Di said with a playful smile, stuffed the comic book into his sleeve, and whispered:
"Then I'll go first, third brother, you should rest more."

Looking at Zhu Di's back running and jumping away, Zhu Qi was sure, this guy didn't come to care about himself, he came to care about comic books.

But it's okay, having a good relationship with Zhu Di is definitely not bad for me.

…………

Here Zhu Di left Zhu Qi's bedroom, and couldn't help but took out the comic book and read it on the way.

Although the third brother Zhu Qi repeatedly asked, this comic book should not be known to anyone except him, Zhu Di.

But at the age of 14, how can he resist the temptation of comic books?

Besides, there are only accompanying palace ladies and eunuchs, and they are all walking behind, and they can't see the comic book.

Thinking like this, Zhu Di simply found a pavilion and asked the maids and eunuchs to stay outside, then got into the pavilion by himself, took out the comic book and read it.

I just turn one page.

...after half an hour...

All the maids and eunuchs were waiting outside the pavilion. They didn't know what His Highness King Yan was looking at. They were so engrossed, but the class time was almost over, so everyone could only be anxious.

At this time, at the corner behind him, a group of people was rushing along the stone road.

The accompanying palace maids and eunuchs held dragon flags, door flags, yellow batons on the left and right sides of Danchi, big umbrellas of various colors, round fans, and 32 of them carried dragon chariots. This is a guard of honor for the emperor to travel!
However, at this time, Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, did not sit in the dragon chariot, but walked at the front of the team with his hands behind his back and a sad face. His steps were so fast that the people behind had to trot to keep up.

The failure of Ming Dynasty's second crusade against Beiyuan naturally made Zhu Yuanzhang unhappy, and the defeat of this Lingbei battle also made Zhu Yuanzhang see that it is unrealistic to completely eliminate Beiyuan in a short time.

No matter how weak Bei Yuan's combat power was, returning to the desert was like a fish entering the sea. It was their hometown in the first place. The good life in the Central Plains could not be lived, and they returned to their original nomadic state when they rode a horse.

Fight if you can, and run if you can't, and take advantage of the ground.

When the army of the Ming Dynasty entered the desert, they knew only a few roads to come and go. If they left those roads, they were really blind.

Not to mention finding the whereabouts of the Yuan army, it is already thankful not to get lost.

The reason why Wang Baobao was able to defeat Xu Da in the battle of Lingbei despite the huge disadvantage was because Wang Baobao knew that when the Ming army entered the desert to fight, they must follow the path of Hal and Lin. Set up an ambush here, and the Ming army will come.

The Ming army can't go, if you don't go to Hal and Lin, except for the locals, who can know the way in the harsh environment of Mobei?
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang gritted his teeth with hatred, wishing he could have a detailed map of Mobei in his hand, and then hundreds or thousands of guides who would know the way.

Zhu Yuanzhang was feeling irritable. As soon as he walked around the corner, he saw a group of people standing in a daze on the road. In a pavilion not far away, Zhu Di, the younger brother, was concentrating on some book with his back turned to him.

Zhu Yuanzhang was in a good mood immediately, and he was very relieved that his son was so eager to learn, and it was up to them to become the king of Sai who guarded the frontier and defend the Ming Dynasty forever.

But now seems to be the time for class, huh, it seems that I have read the subtleties, and I am fascinated, which is very good.

The court ladies and eunuchs around Zhu Di were startled when they saw the emperor coming, and were about to speak when Zhu Yuanzhang raised his hand to signal them to be silent.

Then, with his hands behind his back, he walked towards Zhu Di with a smile on his face, wanting to see what sage book his good son was reading, and what thoughts and feelings he had after reading it.

But when Zhu Yuanzhang walked behind Zhu Di, his smile froze.

Zhu Di was completely unaware that his father Zhu Yuanzhang was standing behind him. While turning over a page of the comic book, he said excitedly to himself:
"Oh my god, the comic book drawn by third brother is too good-looking!"

 The new book is on the road, please give me more advice
