Daming heir

Chapter 167
Outside the Zhongji Hall.

Because Mu Chun, the eldest son of Marquis Mu Ying of Xiping, entered the court, the emperor was overjoyed, and even expelled the emperor's grandson Zhu Yunxie.

Zhu Yunxi walked in the front with a helpless face, turned around and slapped the kicked buttocks.

Zhan Hui and the others who were driven out walked side by side with their heads bowed.

Seeing the silence of the few people, Zhu Yunxi tidied up his robes before returning to his normal state, and said, "Everyone should deal with the matter in Zhejiang as soon as possible. Grandpa's longevity is approaching, so we must not make any troubles to piss off his old man." Upset things come out."

Zhan Hui and others surrendered.

Minister of the Ministry of War, Ru Yu, said: "According to what Jiang's commander said, most of the Japanese pirates who invaded this time have been stopped and killed by the Haining Guards, and they have been driven into the sea. The number of Japanese pirates who sneaked into our Daming territory will certainly not be too many. Exchange what is needed, and now that the New Year is approaching, the number of people traveling on business is decreasing, so it must not be difficult to completely wipe out these Japanese pirates."

Zhu Yunxi nodded, looked at the Minister of the Ministry of War quietly, sighed silently, and shook his head.

His performance fell in the eyes of several people, and he couldn't help but hesitate for a while.

Zhan Hui asked in a low voice: "Is the emperor's grandson worried that something will happen to the Japanese pirates who sneaked in?"

Zhu Yunxi shook his head again: "It's just a few small thieves, my Ming soldiers will definitely wipe them out. This king is just thinking..."

As he spoke, he opened his arms, and his expression gradually changed.

"If there are countless dragon boats and treasures on the coast of my Ming Dynasty, and the warships parade day and night for defense, and the navy is brave and good at fighting, how can there be thieves who are disobedient and repeatedly invade my Daming?"

Zhan Hui rolled his eyes, he didn't intend to answer this question.

Zhao Mian, Minister of the Household Department, also opened his mouth, but finally closed it obediently.

On the contrary, Ru Yu, Minister of the Ministry of War, said with a wry smile: "Emperor Taisun, our Ming Dynasty has a vast coastline and boundless sea territory. If we spread warships all over the sea and have them parade day and night, I am afraid that even the power of the whole country will not be able to do it."

Zhu Yunxi hummed: "Could it be that my Daming can only be captured without a fight, and only when the Japanese invaders come, can I use the officers and soldiers of the coastal guards to resist?"

As he said that, he looked at the household department at the side: "Zhao Shangshu, the household department probably knows that many people along the coast of our Ming Dynasty make a living by fishing at sea, and there are even merchants in the southeast who go to sea to trade and return gold and silver. If If the Japanese plague is not eliminated, I am afraid that your household department will not only lose the tax money of these sea merchants, but also have a headache for the rations of the people in the southeast coast."

Zhao Mian, who was named, could not avoid it, so he could only turn his head and hand over his hands: "What the emperor said is true. In Hangzhou, Quanzhou, Fuzhou, Guangzhou and other places, there are many maritime merchants who go to sea to earn gold and silver goods. And the East China Sea area The terrain of the road is mostly mountainous, and there are not many good fields to cultivate, and the people along the coast of the road mostly go out to sea to fish, supplement rations, and subsidize their families."

"Why did the people of my Ming Dynasty suffer such disasters... I should be the one who went out to rob Daming..."

Zhu Yunxi shook his head, feeling sad all over, waving his hands and walking far away alone.

Leaving Zhan Hui and the others looking at each other, they looked at each other in blank dismay.

If the emperor's grandson was warlike, it was obviously because he sympathized with the people along the coast of the East China Sea.But if you say you are sympathetic to the people, but the grandson of the emperor keeps saying that he wants to go out and rob others.

……

In the hall, Zhu Yuanzhang, who drove away everyone, got up and went to the side of the prince basking in the sun.

He put his hands on his knees, bent his waist and turned his face sideways, and looked outside.

Then he turned his head to look at the prince, his face was quite curious: "Is it not tanned?"

With helplessness on his face, Zhu Biao changed the subject and said, "Brother, why did you let Mu Chun enter Beijing at this time?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at his boss, always feeling a little worried. The prince of the Ming Dynasty would one day be tanned into a black charcoal head.

He turned behind Zhu Biao, pushed the wheelchair with both hands, and pushed him into the hall.

"Ying'er doesn't come back once a year. He wants to guard Yunnan for us, and he can't get away. He probably wants that kid Mu Chun to come back and do his filial piety in front of us for him."

Zhu Biao hummed, and perfunctorily echoed the old man's statement.

But there are other thoughts in my heart, the elder brother is not the kind of person who needs to do these things, if he wants to come back to fulfill his filial piety.The biggest possibility is to send out the army first, and kill the disobedient people in Yunnan, so that Yunnan can be safe and sound, and then return to Beijing to show filial piety in front of the old man.

Zhu Yuanzhang put his hands on his hips, looking very happy: "Although Mu Chun is the same generation as Yunxi, he is a round older than him. I heard that he has several fat sons now."

"Hey!"

Finally, the old man's sigh resounded in the prince's ear brightly.

The old man is thinking about hugging the great-grandson of the emperor.

The corners of Zhu Biao's mouth twitched, and he could only say in a low voice: "Yunxi hasn't reached the crown yet, and if he doesn't, then he will have to wait another two years..."

Zhu Yuanzhang hummed twice in dissatisfaction.

Waiting for the prince in front of him who is doing well in everything but not in a hurry to give birth to the great-grandson of the emperor.

……

He didn't realize at all that Zhu Yunxi, who was about to become the bloodline propagator of the Ming royal family, had already rushed outside the Meridian Gate.

In front of the towering and majestic Meridian Gate, there is a long corridor of the imperial city. On both sides of the city walls, there are countless imperial guards patrolling.

Outside the Meridian Gate is the Hongwu Gate, the first gate in the imperial city.

Therefore, most of the time when you hear about being cut at the Meridian Gate, it is just a joke.

Who would kill at their own doorstep?
At this time, at the door of Lao Zhu's house.

There is a group of travel-stained people standing on the edge of the imperial road.Behind the team were carriages filled with boxes.

If he didn't know it, he would have thought it was a poor relative of the emperor's family who had come to seek refuge.

Zhu Yunxi just glanced at a man who was nearly thirty years old at the front of the line.

The other party was wearing a round neck uniform, with a saber hanging from his waist. When standing, he was tall and straight, without ever shaking a bit.

When Zhu Yunxi hadn't spoken yet.

The opponent had already led a woman beside him forward.

"My minister Xi Pinghou Shizi, Qian Shi of the Governor's Mansion of the Rear Army, and Mu Chun, Commander of the Guangnan Guard, see the grandson of the emperor."

This is Mu Chun, the eldest son of Xiping Hou Muying, who later inherited the title of Xiping Marquis.

Just when Zhu Yunxi was about to help this cousin up.

The woman next to Mu Chun also spoke in Fushen: "My minister, Mu Caiyun, is visiting the grandson of the emperor."

Mu Caiyun?
Xipinghou's daughter?

Zhu Yunxi was puzzled, frowned slightly, and looked at the daughter of the Marquis of Xiping who was with Mu Chun for some reason.

I saw Mu Caiyun wearing a light green slanted skirt, embroidered with flowers and birds, and dotted with light yellow flower bones.The skirt is folded, and the color is simple, lightly painted, and the color is extremely elegant.

Just looking at it, it seems that there is a breeze blowing, and the color is like moonlight.Between actions, it is like water patterns, rippling and imaginative.

Another glance, a pair of small flat feet and a pair of powder-soled boots, extremely cute.

And upwards, it's not like Tang Queqing's budding buds waiting to be released, but like spring buds waiting to bloom.

A small and round cheek, no makeup is applied, but the skin is like suet, crystal clear and delicate.A pair of eyes, bright and dexterous, with the girl's hair accessories, the appearance is even cuter.

All in an instant.

Zhu Yunxi's gaze has already turned to Mu Chun.

Mu Chun smiled slightly, and then became serious again: "My father knew that the emperor's grandson was going out of the palace to study military affairs, and he changed his title to Huaiyou. It coincided with His Majesty's longevity today, so he sent his ministers to Beijing to congratulate him, to show the Mu family's dissatisfaction. Forget your majesty's kindness in nurturing in the past."

Zhu Yunxi nodded, and was already holding Mu Chun's wrist: "Brother Chun, you don't have to be so rigid. Speaking of which, if grandpa hadn't been in the world back then, we both still had the same surname. Grandpa just heard that Brother Chun returned to Beijing, okay? Huanxi, quickly let me come out to greet you."

Back to Beijing.

Zhu Yunxi used this word.

Mu Chun's face was reserved, and he said worriedly: "It's just that I'm close to the capital, and I heard that His Majesty is ill, and the Crown Prince is seriously ill, so I'm getting more and more impatient. I've been on the road for several days, and I don't know how your Majesty and the Crown Prince are doing?"

The two walked towards the palace in front.

Zhu Yunxi shook his head, with a relaxed expression on his face: "Grandpa's body is solid, and there is no serious problem now. It's just that after my father's illness, his legs and feet are not very flexible. Now he can only rely on a wheelchair to move around, but I think it will take some time. can recover."

While talking, his gaze turned to look at Mu Caiyun, who was following behind, with his hands folded in front of his lower abdomen, his head lowered, and he followed step by step.

Mu Chun glanced at this young little cousin, smiled silently, and said in a low voice: "When my father was in Yunnan, the south is a land of barbarians after all, and most of them are people who don't know how to be polite. My sister is getting older now. Now, I want to take this opportunity to go back to Beijing to see the rules and etiquette of my daughter of the Han family."

"Oh?"

Zhu Yunxi let out a faint cry, but he didn't believe it in his heart.

In the majestic Xipinghou Mansion, in the home of the adoptive son of Emperor Hongwu of the Ming Dynasty, could there still be a lack of nurturing mothers?
He took another look at Mu Caiyun, who was following behind, who was about the same age as him.

It's not like Mu Ying wants to marry a daughter, right?

The group of people was led by Zhu Yunxi, and the congratulatory gifts from the Xipinghou Mansion were also delivered to the inner mansion after they entered the palace.

Zhu Yunxi led Mu Chun and Mu Caiyun all the way to Zhongji Hall.

"Grandpa, my cousin is here."

Zhu Yunxi looked at the old man and father who were whispering together, and called out in a low voice.

Zhu Yuanzhang turned around immediately, and the crown prince also turned around.

"Mu Chun! You haven't come back for many years, boy, but now you are getting stronger and stronger, with the style of our family!"

Zhu Yuanzhang's face was flushed with joy, and he stepped forward and patted Mu Chun's shoulders and arms vigorously.

Afterwards, she seemed to come to her senses, and looked aside hesitantly. It seemed that it was Mu Caiyun who was a little timid in Beijing for the first time.

"Is this Ying'er's daughter?"

At this time, Mu Chun had already pulled Mu Caiyun to kneel down and bowed down.

"Returning to the old man, my father said this time before I returned to the capital. I will hand my sister Caiyun into the hands of the minister. This time, I will send it to the East Palace when I enter Beijing to learn some etiquette of the Han family."

"If the old man thinks that my sister is not bad, he will wait a few more years and take her into the emperor's grandson's house."

"If the old man doesn't allow it, the minister will return to Beijing this time and mess up the matter, and my father will not allow the minister to return to Yunnan."

While speaking, Mu Chun kowtowed to the ground.

Hey!
Eat melon again and eat yourself?

Zhu Yunxi looked at Mu Caiyun who was following Mu Chun and kowtowing to the ground.

It never occurred to Mu Ying that she wanted to marry her daughter to her.

He quickly looked up at the old man.

Zhu Yuanzhang was also dizzy by Mu Ying's hand at this time, and he couldn't react for a while.

Originally, he thought it was because Ying'er couldn't get away, that's why he asked his son to come back to fulfill his filial piety.

How could he know that this was Mu Ying, that bastard who wanted to send his daughter to his good grandson's house.

Prince Zhu Biao hid behind, seeing the bewildered faces of his old man and bastard, he couldn't help laughing.

The wheelchair creaked and turned.

The prince turned the wheelchair and came to the front.

"Father, Brother Chun and Girl Caiyun are still kneeling."
