Daming: Me!The auspicious beast unicorn of the old Zhu family

Chapter 23 Daming Family Banquet!Empress Ma, the virtuous queen of the ages!
Yingtian City, Daming Palace.

When the night gradually fell, the entire imperial capital was still immersed in celebration.

of course.

Celebrating people.

Most of them are generals and capable ministers who have made great military exploits for the Ming Empire. As long as Zhu Yuanzhang becomes emperor, their status will definitely rise accordingly. Wouldn't it be beautiful to honor their ancestors and protect their descendants?

For ordinary people, although the newly established Ming Empire is still very poor, it is still much better than the previous dynasty.

At the very least, it is now a dynasty ruled by the Han people, and there will be no situation of being forcibly oppressed by outsiders.

Plus--

Zhu Yuanzhang was born in a humble family.

What I hate the most is corrupt officials. They also attach great importance to the people's livelihood, especially food issues. They must not be sloppy. I didn't even have enough to eat, and my family members starved to death. That's why they chose to take the path of rebellion.

Now build your own empire.

Of course I don't want to repeat the same mistakes.

This is the lesson from the past, and the teacher from the past.

Although it may not have entered the stage of recuperation.

However, compared with the period of the Yuan Dynasty, the common people could barely eat a bite of food. Even though there was still a long way to go before getting enough food and clothing, it was better than starving to death.

"Come here."

"Sir, sit here."

Zhu Yuanzhang, who had just ascended the throne as emperor, held the hand of Sword Master Changhong and said enthusiastically.

With the continuous improvement of one's status, it is not easy to find a confidant who can talk to each other.

after all.

In the eyes of many people.

Companion is like a tiger.

Only Empress Ma and Prince Zhu Biao, who shared weal and woe with him, were able to open up and chat with him. The other brats were either afraid of their majesty or fear of being punished, and they all cringed.

Even the former sworn brothers—Xu Da, Tang He, there is an invisible gap between them and themselves.

I can no longer return to the innocent emotions of my youth.

Besides.

The only person who can still have a good chat with Zhu Yuanzhang is the current Emperor Master, Sword Master Changhong. He is not only the best mentor for Zhu Yuanzhang's early development, but also the spokesperson of Qilin Xia. Don't worry about him having any ambitions , because he only obeys Qilin Xia's orders, and has no desire for worldly fame and fortune at all.

Naturally, Juggernaut Changhong is not afraid of imperial power, and can communicate with Zhu Yuanzhang bluntly.

The two sat down one after another.

Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Biao'er, quickly pour wine for sir."

Sword Master Changhong raised a hand, and said calmly: "I'm just a commoner, so it might be a little inappropriate for His Royal Highness to pour wine for me."

Wearing a pitch-black robe, he looks like a cold-blooded assassin in the dark.

A crimson one-handed sword was slung around his waist.

This is the famous sword that has been blessed by Qilin Xia, and it is also the life of their seven protectors. They cannot let go of it no matter where they go.

Three feet five inches long, the sword body is as red as blood, invincible, the sharpest of the seven swords.

The Juggernaut Changhong is now 51 years older than Zhu Yuanzhang, and is already [-] years old. In this age, he can definitely be regarded as an elderly person. There's nothing old-fashioned about it.

He still maintains the face of an uncle who is about 30 years old.

Physical fitness is also maintained at its peak, and his natural life span is a hundred years.

As long as he has not reached the end of his life, his appearance and physical fitness will always be maintained at the peak state. Only when he reaches the end of his life will he age rapidly in just a few breaths.

Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile: "Sir, what are you talking about? You are indifferent to fame and fortune, and you don't like any meritorious service. We all know this, but no matter what you say, you are our teacher, and you are also a signer." Master, today is a family banquet, let's talk about it regardless of status, what's wrong with the younger generation pouring wine for Master?"

Prince Zhu Biao was also very upright, holding a jug of fine wine in his hand, he directly poured a full glass for Sword Master Changhong.

Similarly, he did not forget his father, and poured a glass for him.

After pouring the wine.

Prince Zhu Biao also sat aside respectfully.

In the eyes of outsiders, he is a high-ranking prince of Ming Dynasty, deeply loved by his father, but he still maintains a respectful attitude when facing the sword master Changhong of the "Master" and dare not neglect him in the slightest.

Dinner in the evening.

Only Zhu Yuanzhang, Queen Ma, Zhu Biao, and Sword Master Changhong.

As well as Zhu Xun, Zhu Xun, and Zhu Di participated.

Zhu Biao, as the prince, knows his father's intentions. He just wants to find a famous teacher for his younger brothers. They don't like to learn Confucian knowledge, so I want them to try it. Learn something real here.

"Sir, please."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the wine."

Facing the enthusiastic Zhu Yuanzhang.

Sword Master Changhong didn't refuse either, and directly picked up the wine glass in front of him, the two glasses collided with each other, and then drank it all in one gulp.

in front of outsiders.

As the emperor's teacher, he will also give Zhu Yuanzhang a face and maintain some etiquette.

However, after knowing that this is a family banquet, Sword Master Changhong let go of it directly. He will not be afraid of power, nor will he be afraid of the emperor, because he is the spokesperson of Qilin Xia and a member of Qilin Guards.

The world is so big, only Qilin is respected!
And this is what Zhu Yuanzhang admires and likes the most.

Many emperors would call themselves 'I, Lonely, and Widowed'. They felt that their status was supreme, at the pinnacle of power, bowing to all living beings. As the saying goes, excellent people are lonely, and how lonely it is to be invincible.

The emperor has already stood at the center of the highest power, and everyone in the world is your chess piece. The so-called high places are too cold, so naturally there is no confidant to accompany you.

And he Zhu Yuanzhang.

He is a down-to-earth emperor, so he naturally doesn't want to be like those emperors who don't even have a heart-to-heart brother.

Wouldn't that be suffocating to death?

What a wonderful thing it is to have a confidant who talks everything and is both a teacher and a friend.

"I'm coming!"

"Sir, this is a dinner specially prepared for you today."

"My family is heavy eight. I used to be an uneducated cowherd boy. To be able to achieve today's achievements, sir can be said to be the first."

"Thank you for hosting a special banquet today."

"."

Dressed in plain clothes.

Empress Ma personally cooks several delicacies, and the imperial chef cooks other dishes.

A sumptuous dinner is ready.

The queen cooks herself.

This kind of thing is definitely very rare. After all, looking at the previous dynasties, which dynasty's queen was not pampered, and only the ancient virtuous queen who worked slowly from the bottom with Zhu Yuanzhang—— Ma Shi, could be able to make a living every day. They all took care of Zhu Yuanzhang's meals by themselves.

She even took care of the meals and clothes of the princes in person, taking care of everything.

It can be regarded as a model of the harem.

He is kind, hardworking and loving.

She doesn't admire wealth, is diligent and thrifty in managing her family, and leads by example. In history, she has repeatedly rejected Zhu Yuanzhang's request to visit her relatives to be appointed officials and rewards.

She understood righteousness and stopped killing. Whenever Zhu Yuanzhang was furious, she always stepped forward to stop without fear, and protected many virtuous officials from being killed.

She is virtuous and virtuous, and with her unique insights, she solved many problems in Zhu Yuanzhang's political and economic strategies, and played a vital role in the economic development of the Ming Empire.

Just ask——

In this way, do not fight or grab, be diligent and thrifty.

Not for fame and fortune, but for children.

Who can not love a good queen who is dedicated to her husband, the people, and the country?

Even the Manchu Tartars who smeared the Ming Dynasty later blackened Zhu Yuanzhang so badly, but they couldn't find the dark horse queen. The only thing that can be said is her big feet. Very few.
