Hongwu Daming: Why hasn't my son rebelled?

Chapter 13 Xu Da's Praise

The second day, the Forbidden City.

Zhu Qi'an was lying on the bed safely, extraordinarily peaceful.The spring outside the house is bright and the breeze is dawning. According to Zhu Qi's biological clock, at least one more hour of sleep is required, but today he is going to the Jinwu Guard to give a martial arts lecture. Can't be late.

Originally, I thought that when I opened my eyes, I would see a dark night, but then I could say something leisurely: "It's 04:30 in the morning of Yingtian, and it's just dark."

But when he dreamily opened his eyes and saw the clear sky, Zhu Qi's heart stopped beating tactically.

Damn, why is no one calling me!Talking Wu is late!
Zhu Qi got up suddenly, his mind went blank, and shouted:
"Come on! Come on, come on!"

Zhu Qi's cry like killing a pig immediately attracted the maids and eunuchs outside, and the internal officials rushed in, and surrounded His Royal Highness King Liao one by one with a dazed look on their faces.

Seeing that His Royal Highness King Liao had got up by himself, he grabbed a handful of clothes and began to try to put them on, shouting as he put them on:
"Damn! What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and help me get dressed! Why are these clothes so difficult to wear?"

Soon a court lady came forward to help Zhu Qi get dressed, and an internal official said cautiously:

"Your Highness, His Royal Highness sent someone to tell you that the martial arts lecture this morning has been cancelled. Let us not disturb His Highness's rest."

Zhu Qi was stunned for a moment, the first reaction was Prince Zhu Biao, did he find out that he and Zhu Di went to Goulan?But if this is the case, how can you let yourself have a good rest?

"Could it really be cancelled? Then what should I do with my investment? Is the agreement still valid..."

Zhu Qi was talking to himself over there, but a fiery voice came from outside:

"Third brother! Third brother!"

As soon as he heard this voice, he knew that it was Zhu Di's child. Although Zhu Qi was flustered, he looked very calm on the surface and asked Zhu Di:

"The martial arts lecture has been cancelled, did you know that?"

Zhu Di was taken aback when he heard Zhu Qi's question, and asked:

"Isn't it? Third brother, don't you know?!"

Zhu Qi was taken aback for a moment, and Zhu Di grinned when he sat down, and said:

"Third brother, I woke up early today, and I wanted to go to the Jinwu Guard to participate in the martial arts lecture, but before I left, someone came to tell me that today my father went to court as usual, and there was no martial arts lecture. Seeing that there was no martial arts lecture, I went to the morning class as usual, and then I was in class, and I heard that Mr. Song Lian grabbed the third brother, and you were full of praise!
That's when I found out that it was the sand table map that you made yesterday, third brother. Uncle Xu saw it last night, and then took it as a treasure and dedicated it to the emperor. Now a group of generals are still surrounding the sand table map to study it. Woolen cloth! "

When Zhu Qi heard this, he was really stupid. In his opinion, the sand table map is nothing special, whether it is equal to the scale or the grid, this is all common sense, right?

Zhu Di was still praising blah blah blah blah, and what he said was Wen Zouzou's too, presumably it was what Song Lian had praised in class.

Just as Zhu Di was boasting, another internal official came outside. Seeing that the Liao king Zhu Qi had woken up, he ran over happily and said:

"His Royal Highness Liao Wang, I can be regarded as waking you up. His Majesty said that after you wake up, Your Highness, hurry up and come with me."

Come on, you don't need to ask to know what you are calling yourself for. It must be because of the sand table map.

Since it was Zhu Yuanzhang who called him, Zhu Qi didn't dare to be negligent, so he quickly changed his clothes and followed the internal officials.

Passing through the palace gate all the way, I soon arrived at the imperial study room, and saw a group of generals in the imperial study room, and Prince Zhu Biao was also there.In the room, there was a map sand table made yesterday, and Zhu Yuanzhang was standing next to him. Xu Da was talking to Zhu Yuanzhang while facing the map.

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw that Zhu Qi was coming, he hurriedly greeted Zhu Qi to come in. The first sentence he said was:

"My son Zhu Qi made this sand table, how is it? Doesn't my son Zhu Qi look like a general?"

This scene is very much like an old father who is holding a certificate and praising everywhere.But it's fine if you praise normally, it's like a general, how can you bear it!Daming is no different than other dynasties, especially Zhu Yuanzhang, who has high hopes for every son, hoping that every son can be the God of War of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Qi knew how much he was on the military level, and that was all too clear.Poems can be copied at will, paintings can be drawn at will, business can be done at will, but this is definitely not a joke when leading troops to fight as a general, because fighting will kill people!
At that time Zhu Qi blushed anxiously, waved his hands again and again to deny it, claiming that he has little talent and little learning, there is absolutely no such thing as general talent!

Xu Dana immediately said: His Royal Highness the King of Liao is so self-effacing, neither arrogant nor impetuous, he is indeed His Majesty's son.

I won't mention the later things, it was out of control, and there was a burst of boasting, which made Zhu Qi even boastful.

Even though he knew that the crown prince was Zhu Biao, the strongest crown prince of Ming Dynasty who had no suspicion of his younger brothers in history, Zhu Qi's heart still trembled and panicked.

After finally boasting, Zhu Qi didn't have anything to do, so Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and let Zhu Qi go back.

Walking out of the imperial study room, Zhu Qicai realized, good guy, is this calling him to come here and be praised?

Forget it, look at the expressions of those generals, they must be very satisfied.It is estimated that the 1000 taels of silver invested by Prince Zhu Biao will not be able to escape. As for other things, Zhu Qi doesn't understand, and he doesn't bother to care about them. With so many talents in Hongwu, they will stand up for the sky falling!
Thinking of this, Zhu Qi decided to wave his sleeves and go back to draw comics and write a plan for opening a store.

…………

When Xu Da left the palace and returned home, it was already evening.

He went out in the evening sunset yesterday, and returned home in the evening sunset today. Naturally, he was most worried about his family.

It happened to be dinner at home, Xu Da sat on the main seat and looked at everyone's expressions, and he knew that his family was very curious about why Xu Da had been in the palace for so long.

Xu Da chuckled, and took the initiative to say:

"You don't have to worry about it. Your Majesty didn't mean to blame me for the previous defeat. The main reason for staying in the palace for a day this time is because of His Royal Highness King Liao."

Xu Zengshou asked in doubt:
"Is it His Royal Highness King Liao who recovered from a serious illness last month?"

Xu Da nodded:

"That's right, His Royal Highness Liao's illness seemed to be a blessing in disguise. I won't go into too much detail. Anyway, it's all about military affairs. It's just that His Royal Highness Liao is really talented and self-effacing. I'm very optimistic about it." Your Highness."

Xu Miaoyun smiled and said:

"It's rare to hear my father take the initiative to praise others."

"His Royal Highness the King of Liao is not an ordinary person. He not only has general talent, but also literary talents. A few days ago, he wrote a poem called "Song of Drinking Wine under Flowers". I will read it to you..."

Xu Da was reading it over there, but Xu Miaoyun's expression changed when he heard it, this poem...was written by someone who was in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion that day!

That person turned out to be His Royal Highness King Liao?
