People in Hongwu, from heavenly master to emperor master

Chapter 403 Returning, who is the woman in Pindao's room?
Both father and son knew about Zhu Xi's inner demons, and they had a tacit understanding not to mention them.

"Zhang Yi's theory makes sense!
Many times, the territory of the empire depends on the speed of dissemination of the court's information. The longer it is, the more it is beyond reach!

But if Ming Dynasty wants to use the power of the world to feed back China!

Going out is an inevitable choice!

Japan is the first stop for the Ming Dynasty to go to sea, and it is also a battle that must be won!
But I have also thought about it, if we really capture Japan, how will we rule it there?

In fact, enfeoffment is the best way!

If the second child is willing to go, let him go! "

Zhu Yuanzhang forced out a smile and said:

"Zhang Yi said that the clan's policy is to raise pigs and bring disaster to the country!
However, what if the descendants of my Zhu family spread all over the world? "

Only then did Zhu Biao understand that Zhu Yuanzhang had probably had a similar idea a long time ago, so he could accept Zhu Chong's request so quickly.

He has already made preparations for the separation of his sons.

"Since my son wants Japan, then take Japan...

Not only Japan, the culture of our Han family will educate the world!
My Ming Dynasty’s fleet will travel all over the world! "

Zhu Yuanzhang patted Zhu Biao on the shoulder and said:
"You don't have to think that you forced your brother to leave. This was his choice, and he made such a choice because he respects you as a brother!"

Zhu Biao nodded heavily.

Zhu Ping's choice of self-exile has two meanings. One is that he really cannot control his inner demons, and the other is that he wants to play the role of a younger brother.

"Go, there are not many days left this year, spend time with your family, the New Year is coming again..."

From the first year of Hongwu to the present, Da Ming has gone for five years without knowing it.

Time flies, Zhu Yuanzhang still remembers that when he ascended the throne, he was still confused about how to be a good emperor in this world.

Suddenly someone told him that he himself could become an emperor through the ages.

This belief may be the reason why he is aggressive.

"Next year, the child should come back too?"

Lao Zhu looked at the palace, which was already preparing for the New Year affairs in advance, so the busy eunuchs were talking to themselves.

……

Thirty years.

Zhang Yi was sitting in the Longhu Mountain study room, looking at the heavy snow falling from the sky.

The eldest brother Zhang Yuchu and his younger brother Zhang Yuqing were playing in the snow in the yard.

Longhu Mountain does not have snow every year, but this year it seems like there will be a heavy snowfall.

The auspicious snow heralds a prosperous year!

Hopefully next year’s harvest will be good.

"Brother, come out and play!"

Zhang Yuchu's head poked out of the window, looking like a tiger.

"Brother, you go play with your brother, I also want to write something!"

Zhang Yi gently rejected his brother, and Zhang Yuqing showed disappointment on his face.

At this time, Zhang Yuchu came over. He was fourteen or fifteen years old and was now half an adult.

Zhang Yuchu can be regarded as a scholar, and he has the temperament of a scholar. Combined with the Taoist robes on his body, Zhang Yi seemed to be able to see the person whom Song Lian later called:

"Confucianism in Taoism" the 43rd generation of heavenly masters.

He was just the eldest brother who traveled thousands of miles with Lao Zhang, but there was no shadow of the domineering Zhang Yuchu in the history books.

On the contrary, in Zhang Yi's opinion, it is not an exaggeration to say that the current eldest brother is a humble gentleman.

"Brother, are you leaving after the New Year?"

Zhang Yuchu asked Zhang Yi, Zhang Yi nodded:

“Because I’m leaving soon, there are some things I need to explain!
I wrote a few topics, which were enough for my senior brothers on the mountain to study for several years..."

"These are not important. The important thing is that when you leave this time, my brother doesn't know when I will see you again!"

Zhang Yuchu pretended to be a big brother and said to him in a scolding tone.

Zhang Yi was stunned and looked at Zhang Yuqing's aggrieved look.

He solemnly stood up and said:

"Brother said yes!"

"Third brother, let's go build a snowman?"

"it is good!"

The three brothers were playing the game of building a snowman in the yard, just like when they were children.

In the rare heavy snow, Zhang Yi displayed his eighteen martial arts skills.

How could a little snowman satisfy him?

Not long after, he piled up castles and various lifelike animals.

The three brothers were originally going to compete, but after being hit by Zhang Yi's dimensionality reduction, Zhang Yuqing was so aggrieved that he almost cried.

He grabbed a snowball and threw it, hitting Zhang Yi on the head.

"You're a good boy, come for a sneak attack, come for a lie..."

Zhang Yi immediately fought back, and the snowball fight between the brothers also started.

Hahahaha!

The laughter infected everyone who passed by.

Everyone either shook their heads and smiled, or stopped to watch.

"Nonsense! How old are you!"

Zhang Changsheng saw the brothers messing around and wanted to act like his father, but Mrs. Zhang stopped him.

"You also know that their eldest brother is not young anymore, so you can let them play. After this year, these children will never have the chance to play in the snow so happily again..."

Lao Zhang was stunned when he heard this, and he thought about it too.

Zhang Yuchu has reached the age where he wants to get married.

After two years of Zhang Yi's life, that's about it.

"The second brother is going out this time, maybe when he comes back, Yuchu will have a child!

Just let them have fun! "

Mrs. Zhang was usually very obedient to Old Zhang, but now she pulled his sleeve and pulled him back with all her strength.

Lao Zhang had some feelings and stopped insisting on this matter.

Wait until midnight, bang bang bang!

Fireworks also appeared on Longhu Mountain!
"Wu Baoru and the others did this themselves...

I want to watch the fireworks! "

After their potential was stimulated by Zhang Yi, all the Taoist priests in Longhu Mountain became talents.

Making some fireworks is not a problem for those who are good at alchemy.

When Zhang Yuqing saw the fireworks, he was no longer tired immediately, so he grabbed his two brothers and ran away.

People on Longhu Mountain were all attracted by the fireworks and cheered as they looked at the fireworks in the sky.

When everyone cheered, Zhang Yi silently left the crowd and returned to his study.

He carefully wrote down the knowledge that he felt should be left to Longhu Mountain.

……

On the fifth day of the lunar month, he finished writing the last volume of the book he wanted to write and breathed a sigh of relief.

It was finally time to say goodbye.

"Zhang Yi, I've made a replica of it, Dian... Dian..."

Zhang Yuchu ran in, holding a small device in his hand.

Hand crank generator!
Zhang Yi was amused. This was a toy he made for Zhang Yuchu a while ago, and Zhang Yuchu actually reproduced it.

He shook his head. It was not difficult to make a simple generator, but it was too difficult to turn electricity into energy.

It would be better to click on the steam engine skill tree first.

"Brother, do it well!"

"You're packing up..."

"Well, get ready to leave!"

The first month of the sixth year of Hongwu.

Zhang Yizai finally left Longhu Mountain, where he had stayed for three years, and left again.

This time he still only took Lao Mo with him to the capital.

“It’s been three years, Meng Yao is already ten years old, right?
The Xu family girl is also 12 years old!

This guy Kong Ne won't go home for a blind date, will he? "

Zhang Yi was counting down his few friends on the road, and he was looking forward to seeing them. …

"Miss, there are too many Jin Yiwei nearby, and their people say they can't get in..."

Guanyin slave was reading in the study, his maid came in and said softly.

Guanyin slave did not raise his head and just said:
"I see!"

"This dog emperor threw the young lady into this broken Taoist temple, but sent so many people to guard her...

Miss, the Northern Expedition master didn’t lose, but he didn’t win either! "

The maid continued to tell Guanyin Nu about everything outside, but she soon discovered that Guanyin Nu didn't listen at all.

She just looked at the books in the study.

The maid is also literate, but she cannot read most of the books here.

Firstly, most of these books are written in a font called simplified Chinese characters popularized by the Ming Dynasty, which makes them uncomfortable to read.

Secondly, the contents of these things are themselves obscure and difficult to understand.

Guanyin Nu also read these books when he first came here, but was quickly dissuaded by the content.

But these days, she was trapped in Qingxin Guan. She had nothing to do, but she was determined to read it.

As the only Taoist priest in this Taoist temple, she opens the door every morning and practices Taoism.

Then recite Medicine King and pray for grandpa.

It seems that no one is watching here, but in fact, from what the maid said, the surrounding area should have been guarded by Jin Yiwei.

Why the emperor placed her here, Guanyin Nu couldn't understand.

Was he deliberately humiliating her?
But she couldn't figure it out, and she learned not to think about it.

It’s also good to recite sutras by yourself every day and then read.

"Miss, do you want to use the mother and daughter next door to blackmail you, or Miss Xu who often comes next door..."

“Don’t think wildly and hurt innocent people!

Go out and go to sleep first! "

"Miss, you've been sleeping on a bed in the study for the past few days, and you haven't even returned to your room!

Are these books that interesting? "

Hearing the maid's muttering, Guanyin slave shook his head and smiled.

If there is anything that can make her feel lucky during the days of confinement, it is that her marriage with Zhu Xi was dissolved.

The second is that she can come to the Pure Heart Temple.

Here where she was imprisoned, there was a pair of pretty good cohabitants, namely Mrs. Li and her two daughters.

They are the most ordinary people, and they have no hatred towards Guanyin slaves for their family and country.

Since they moved in here, the other party has only been consciously moving around the medicine garden.

Such neighbors are very pleasant to live with.

The Taoist temple's study room can be regarded as a treasure discovered by Guanyin Nu.

These obscure books, if read, are very useful knowledge.

Moreover, unlike those who are ignorant, the author of the book seems to prefer discovering and studying phenomena than reasoning.

Of course, she also learned the word phenomenon from the book.

"Aren't Aunt Li and the others back yet?"

"Miss, no, according to them, they will go back to their hometown and stay there until the Lantern Festival!"

"Yuanxiao, there are still some days left!"

When Guanyin Nu heard this, he didn't take it to heart.

"Miss, I'm going back then. Remember not to freeze. I'll give you some clothes!"

"Ok!"

Seeing that it was getting dark outside, Guanyin Nu continued reading.

A book in her hand is about one hundred thousand whys in natural science?
It's just that unlike some of the interesting whys, this book is a bit obscure.

After reading for a while, she felt exhausted, then she blew out the candle and went to sleep in the study.

The small bed in the study room was arranged by Mrs. Li for Meng Yao. After Guanyin Nu came here, Meng Yao spent less time studying here.

Guanyin Nu sometimes studies late, so he just sleeps here.

Over and over again, she preferred to sleep in the study.

The quiet night soon made her fall asleep.

However, there were still two people walking in the darkness outside.

"I still can't make it. Fortunately it's not in the city, otherwise there would be a curfew..."

Zhang Yizai complained to Lao Mo:

"It's my fault this time, I thought I could get there before dark!"

Lao Mo replied:
"fine!"

He looked around cautiously. Even though he was already outside Yingtian City, Lao Mo still did not dare to take it lightly.

Not to mention possible thieves, there are occasionally wild beasts walking around at night, looking for food.

Although the probability of this happening in an area with a lot of human activity is very low, as a guard, Lao Mo is very responsible.

When he was getting close to Qingxin Temple, he became aware that something was wrong. Someone...

In the darkness, someone is peeping.

Lao Mo suddenly became nervous. He did not alarm Zhang Yi, but just kept silently on guard.

The further he walked, Lao Mo noticed that there seemed to be more and more eyes around him. He almost turned around and left immediately.

But in the darkness, there was an inaudible voice: "Old Mo..."

Lao Mo looked and saw a familiar face appearing in the darkness.

It was Jin Yiwei, he breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, doubts arose. He knew that Jin Yiwei was responsible for guarding Qingxin Guan, but he didn't know how to extend the scope to such a far distance.

He had questions, but this was not the time to ask.

He pulled Zhang Yi to the door of the Taoist temple, and Zhang Yi opened the curtain:

"Three years...

Lao Meng, go to the medicine garden and knock on the door! "

Zhang Yi knew that even if he was not in Ma, the Meng family mother and daughter would not live in his Qingxin Temple.

Lao Mo nodded, and the two of them went to Qing Xin Guan, knocking on the door, but no one answered.

"Did you go back to your old house to celebrate the New Year?"

Zhang Yi was a little confused, but he didn't think too much and asked Lao Mo to climb over the wall and open the door...

As expected, Li's mother and daughter were not here, and Zhang Yi became more and more certain that they had not come back for the New Year.

Zhang Yi, who expected to see Meng Yao's sister for the first time, was a little disappointed.

"Go and feed the carriage and horses, and go and have some rest!"

Zhang Yi told Lao Mo that he was a little tired and naturally wanted to rest.

The doors of the Taoist Temple and Yaoyuanzi were left open, so Zhang Yi went in directly. However, when he went to his room, he found some dust.

Probably because he went back to celebrate the New Year, this place had not been taken care of for some days. Zhang Yi turned to the study room with the door ajar and wiped it on the desk.

"Well, it seems that little Mengyao often studies here and has not missed any homework!"

Zhang Yi didn't light a lamp, but just looked at things by the moonlight.

After making sure that the study could sleep, he groped into the inner room, found the quilt and got in.

"Is this Meng Yao's body fragrance?"

The weather in early spring was still a bit cold, and the warmth in the bed made Zhang Yi very happy.

Especially the lingering fragrance left in the quilt does not belong to any rouge and gouache smell.

Zhang Yi turned over and suddenly felt something was wrong.

Why is the quilt still warm when Meng Yao and her daughter are not around?

He sat up suddenly, groping in the dark until he touched something soft.

Zhang Yi was stunned.

The current situation couldn't be more clear. Is there a woman in the study, and it's definitely not Meng Yao...

Because this is not what a ten-year-old should feel like!
"Is there a woman in my room?"

Zhang Yi was confused, who is this woman?
His little face turned pale with fright. If it wasn't Meng Yao, it wouldn't be Li...

Play big.
