Father can be an enemy country

Chapter 557

"Boy is ridiculous!" Zhu Yuanzhang scolded the third child angrily.

"We have led the army to fight for so many years, and the military law has always been strict. Even the king of Kaiping ate our military sticks, but this cook Xu Xingzu has cooked for us for 23 years. We have never beaten or scolded! Do you know why? "

"Father is afraid that he will hold a grudge and poison the meal." The youngest said in a muffled voice.

"Knowing that you still dare to beat him?" Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily.

"I think this little thing is not a big deal." The third child said in a low voice.

"Small things? Haven't you ever heard of 'It's not a big grievance, but a person to be feared'?" Zhu Yuanzhang snorted and said, "What's even more stupid is that after you beat him, you still asked him to cook for you. So careless , Do you think you have a long life?"

"Yes, this son-in-law knew he was wrong. The son-in-law has already given money to send him home for the elderly according to his father's wishes." The third child said embarrassingly.

Zhu Yuanzhang said to the concubine and prince who were watching the excitement: "Don't think that the matter has nothing to do with you, you must also learn a lesson!"

Everyone hurriedly responded submissively, expressing that they would be nicer to the cook.

"Not only cooks, but also don't abuse the palace people around you on weekdays. If you feel that anyone may harbor resentment, don't hesitate to send them out of the palace." Zhu Yuanzhang urged again earnestly.

In the past, the sixth child would feel that the older the old thief, the less courageous he would be.But he doesn't think so now. Jiangxi's experience made him deeply understand how offending people his father and son did. There must be countless people in the Ming Dynasty who are looking forward to the sudden and sudden death of his father and son.

~~
He only trained the third child about one thing, which made Boss Zhu feel a little unsatisfied, so he turned his finger on the second child.

"And you, a fool, what's the fun?" Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily, "Your crime is much worse than that of the third brother! He will only lose his life at most, but you will perish!"

"Oh..." The second child was depressed. It was obviously the fourth child who was laughing at the third child behind his back, and he was just amused.But he didn't dare to explain, so he could only walk to the place where the third child was kneeling just now, and kneel down to listen to the instruction.

"Before you came to the feudal domain, we gave thousands of instructions and ten thousand instructions. The people in the pass, since the Yuan family lost power, are extremely miserable! Although the world is now in peace, and there is work to transfer to the border, the people have not had a rest, and their strength has been exhausted. After you become a vassal, if the palace is finished, all non-urgent tasks will be cancelled." Then Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily:
"It's good for you. You promised well in person. Once you arrive in Xi'an, you will forget about it! The palace has been completed, but you continue to build a big bell tower, and you want to move the pavilion in the Nine Dragon Pool to the palace. What's the matter?" Living in the palace of the prince, living on the towers of Xi'an City, is simply ignorant of human affairs, as stupid as a beast!"

The members of the royal family in the hall were all stunned. They did not expect that the emperor would use such serious words to describe King Qin.

King Qin also looked aggrieved, feeling that he had done nothing but wanted to remodel the palace according to his own wishes.

"Don't feel wronged." Zhu Yuanzhang snorted and said: "On the surface, these things are not big, but if it was in the Han and Tang Dynasties, if you were taken advantage of by someone with a heart, you would not only lose your title, but you might also lose your head! "

"You should be lucky that your father is in power now. He will rebuke you and punish you, but he will not be suspicious of you, because we know you are a fool!" After all, it was the Chinese New Year, so Zhu Yuanzhang still kept it. He sighed and said seriously:
"But if you still act like this after we die, then your elder brother Zhu Biao will punish you. You have no reason to blame your elder brother. This is your own fault!"

"Father, my son believes in Zhu Xi, he will definitely correct himself humbly, and become a virtuous king who loves the people like a son." The prince hurriedly got up and cupped his fists and said, "I will always urge him to reflect on himself, and he will definitely not go to that point. "

"Hmph, how lucky you are, you idiot, to have such a good elder brother." Zhu Yuanzhang turned pale at this moment, let go of the second child and said, "Give us a good self-reflection, and if you commit the crime again, you will be punished even more severely!"

"Yes, it's Emperor Father." The second child replied dejectedly.

~~
Zhu Yuanzhang also used the matter of the second and third children to warn the princes who had not yet entered the feudal domain, which made the sons obedient and dare not breathe.

The banquet ended hastily.Zhu Yuanzhang asked the fourth and sixth sons to go back to Qianqing Palace with himself and the prince.

Although the two brothers have already written a report on the Jiangxi incident, they can learn more by listening to the report in person.

Zhu Di and Zhu Zhen talked to each other, and then told their father and eldest brother about Qingzhang Tianmu, compilation of yellow books, and Lijia people in Jiangxi.

Zhu Yuanzhang listened very seriously, and interrupted the two of them from time to time to ask this and that...

"Do you think the next step is to promote the yellow book nationwide?" This is the question that Boss Zhu wants to know most.

"Let Lao Liu answer this question." Zhu Di said realistically: "The specific matters are arranged by Lao Liu, and my son will mainly escort him."

"Fourth brother is too modest, everything is decided by the two of us." Zhu Zhen shook his head and said, "It's just that the division of labor is different."

"You don't need to put gold on the face of the fourth brother. He is a general who can open and close. This kind of delicate work of embroidery and needlework is not his specialty." Zhu Yuanzhang said lightly: "Let's talk about it."

"Yes, father." Zhu Zhen could only nod his head, sorting out his thoughts a bit and said:
"I feel that I am not yet mature. The difficulties encountered in the implementation of the New Deal in Jiangxi this time are beyond imagination. Without the full support of my father and elder brother, without the hard work and sacrifice of my brother Liu Lian in the early stage, there will be a lot of people who have not been killed. , Without the great immigration of Jiangxi to fill Huguang, it would never have been completed so quickly."

"But each province has its own situation. For example, Zhengyi is the largest landlord in Jiangxi, and half of them are Yintian and Yinhu. As long as Zhengyi is suppressed, other landlords will not be able to make any waves." Zhu Zhen continued:
"And we started with "Regardless of Account Books", and we happened to catch a big handle on Zhengyi, so they had to bow their heads. In other provinces, even Yanshenggong Mansion in Shandong would not have the scale of Zhengyi. , the effect will naturally not be so good.”

"Yes." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with a solemn expression. Some things were indispensable, such as large-scale immigration. Some provinces were still short of people. It was impossible for every province to do this.

It's also impossible to let his brothers go to every province, so the fourth and sixth children don't have to do anything else in their lives.

Changing other sons, such as the second child or the seventh child, would drive the common people back.A prince who is not strong enough like the old five and the eighth may not be able to restrain the demons and ghosts in the provinces.

"So it is still necessary to find a solution that can be generalized for the main difficulties." Then I heard Zhu Zhen say again: "It will be easier for the provinces to carry out the New Deal."

"Then what do you think are the main difficulties, and how to solve them?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.
