Chapter 11

During the Hongwu period, the generals were shining brightly.

Famous founding generals include Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, Li Wenzhong, Feng Sheng, Tang He, Fu Youde, etc...

When these famous founding generals were alive, even Sapphire, a military genius who was fed by heaven, could only serve as a deputy, not a commander in chief.

On the other hand, there are not many civil servants who are famous for later generations.

This is also in line with the laws of history. To conquer the world depends on military generals, and to govern the country, civil servants are selected.

Only Liu Bowen, Li Shanchang, Song Lian, Hu Weiyong, Wang Guangyang, etc. were counted. In the 13th year of Hongwu, Liu Bowen had already died of illness, and Hu Weiyong, Wang Guangyang, etc. were all killed.

Even for Li Shanchang and Song Lian who are alive, one is semi-retired and the other is completely retired. Because of the Hu Weiyong case, there are too many officials who have been convicted of crimes in the court.

As for Song Lian, it was even more tragic. His grandson Song Shen was convicted of the Hu Weiyong case, half of his body was about to be buried in the ground, and he had to be taken to Beijing for trial.

In Fengtian Hall, Lao Zhu and Zhu Biao, who were waiting for Li Shanchang and Song Lian to arrive, both father and son frowned.

"Father, what did you see in Jianwen Dynasty?"

There was a bit of curiosity in Zhu Biao's eyes.

"As your uncle said, Yun Wen has indeed ascended the throne."

When Lao Zhu said this, he was silent for a moment, but he still spoke.

"But his throne was taken away by the fourth child."

'Fourth? '

Zhu Biao was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously remembered the previous thunderstorm and Zhu Di's vowed sentence, "I have no two hearts."

Then Lao Zhu told Zhu Biao the whole experience of his trip to Jianwen Dynasty, which also included Lao Zhu's handling of the Jing Nan matter.

After speaking, Old Zhu looked at Zhu Biao.

"Biao'er, you can blame your father."

No matter how you say it, Zhu Yunqi is Zhu Biao's bloodline. As long as Zhu Yunqi is the emperor, the throne of Ming Dynasty will still be passed on from Zhu Biao in the future.

Zhu Biao smiled.

"If the son-in-law says he's not unhappy at all, he's lying to his father."

"However, it's not the emperor father who is displeased, but the shame that he has no way to teach his son, and he has taught such an incompetent successor."

Zhu Biao decided in his heart that when he returned home today, he would hang up the four-year-old little Zhu Yunqi and beat him violently. It was too shameful!

"Biaoer, don't take it to heart."

"We have asked the immortal master. The future is the future, and it will not affect the present. As long as you take good care of your body, you will definitely not have the sudden death of Hongwu in 25 years. We still have to leave this great Ming Dynasty to you."

"It's just that you have to pay attention to Xiongying's body, and choose a good teacher for Yunxi as soon as possible."

"just in case…"

"We're just in case."

"If something unexpected happens to Xiongying, then we can also place our hope on Yunxi."

Old Zhu's words obviously ignored Zhu Yunqi from Hongwu Time and Space.

"My son understands."

Zhu Biao nodded, was silent for a moment, and opened his mouth.

"Father, my son has a request. I hope that my father can delay the time for my fourth brother to become a vassal. I want to bring him by my side to deal with state affairs together. I was only allowed to deal with political affairs for four hours a day. I must not have enough time alone."

Old Zhu frowned slightly.

After pondering for a long time, he sighed.

"Our dear son."

Of course he understood what Zhu Biao meant, nominally saying that he didn't have enough time and wanted to pull Zhu Di to work together, but in fact Zhu Biao was worried about his own accident, and planned to train the fourth child himself, and prepare a successor for the old Zhu in advance.

What Zhu Biao has in his heart is Daming Jiangshan, not just himself.

At this moment, a roll call came from outside the hall.

"Korean Duke Li Shanchang has an audience, Hanlin scholar Chengzhi Song Lian has an audience...!"

After the roll call ended, Mao Erhu led the two of them up the palace steps.

At this time, Li Shanchang was beating drums in his heart. He was Hu Weiyong's in-laws and also Hu Weiyong's mentor. The whole Ming Dynasty knew that he and Hu Weiyong wore the same pair of iron underpants.

As soon as Hu Weiyong was executed, he was summoned. Before leaving home, Li Shanchang even chose the materials for the coffin board.

But in fact, he was worried too much, Lao Zhu did not intend to kill him, at least the current Lao Zhu did not intend to kill Li Shanchang, Li Shanchang died in the 23rd year of Hongwu according to historical records.

Song Lian's expression was calm, he just lamented the impermanence of the world, as a model of scholars in the world, he and Liu Bowen were called the Wenzong of the generation, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, he has been the teacher of the princes and kings, and he was hailed as the first civil servant of the Ming Dynasty by Emperor Hongwu.

I still remember that when he returned to the field in the tenth year of Hongwu, Emperor Hongwu practiced it himself. How glorious he was at that time.

But now, because the eldest son Song Shen was implicated in the Hu Weiyong case, he was imprisoned.

If the historical trend remains unchanged, Song Lian's eldest son, Song Shen, and his second son, Song Yu, would both die by law. Zhu Yuanzhang originally wanted to execute Song Lian, but after being protected by Empress Ma and Prince Zhu Biao, they were saved from death. They moved to Maozhou, Sichuan for resettlement, and died of illness in Kuizhou the following year.

A generation of Wenzong ended up lonely.

"See Your Majesty, Your Majesty's Blessings."

The two saluted at the same time.

"I'm safe."

Lao Zhu glanced at the two of His Royal Highness Jin Luan, and Lao Zhu was very clear about what the two of them were thinking.

"We have been thinking about it recently and found that the system of conferring titles on the clan is lacking. If you want to change it, what good strategy do you two have?"

"In addition, including the prince, each person mentioned one disadvantage of the current state affairs."

Li Shanchang and Song Lian were taken aback, thinking this is it? !
Zhu Biao was also taken aback, subconsciously looking at Lao Zhu.

'Why do I have to say that? '

He finally realized why Lao Zhu wanted to keep him and let the fourth son send Ji Boying off, because he looked down on the fourth son's IQ.

....................................

At night, the banks of the Qinhuai River are awash in red.

As long as people in later generations talk about Hongwu, their first thought is to wash the court with blood, but few people know that because of the appearance of the [-]th floor of the Jinling Mausoleum, Hongwu's romance is the best in Ming Dynasty.

The world says: Chunjiang Qiuyue sixteenth floor.

The sixteenth floor is essentially an 'official prostitute', and the women in it are beautiful and artistic.Roughly distributed along the banks of the Qinhuai River, each restaurant has three floors, each floor is nearly ten meters high, with high foundations and double eaves, and spacious buildings, which are absolutely indisputable peaks in the world.

Zuixian Tower, the sixteenth floor, the entire top floor was covered.

"Uncle Huang, my nephew will take my leave first."

The most elegant private room on the top floor has an elegant layout and floor-to-ceiling screens on all sides. No matter from which angle you look at it, you can see an empty night view. In the 21st century, this is the top luxury SVIP suite.

Ji Boying did not choose to go to Lao Zhu's Zijin Mountain Palace, that kind of place is not for ordinary people like him.

Lighting a cigarette, Ji Boying stood by the window, looking at the colorful Qinhuai River. He was going to refresh the Guozuo of Hongwu Time and Space and Jianwen Time and Space to see if today's efforts were in vain.

is about to operate.

Yay, the door was gently pushed open.

Ji Boying frowned, it was too rude not to knock on the door!

Just about to get angry, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of two graceful figures entering. They were two women. The upper body of the left woman was wrapped with a divine bird tube top. There were thousands of ravines. The white gauze skirt was divided into several strands from the waist, and the jade feet were hidden in it.

The dress of the woman on the right is almost the same, except that the tube top is red gauze, a string of silver bells hangs between the clavicle, each frown and a cluster of silver bells are sweet, and the waist down is a light black skirt.

They all have creamy skin, snow-white faces, slender waists, and black hair hanging down.

Most importantly, she looks exactly the same.

"Little Zhu Si, is this the test of the cadres?" '

"Surprise your lord, slaves deserve to die..."

The two girls were as startled as little rabbits, their faces were full of panic, they both bowed their heads and knelt beside the bed, they were originally prostitutes in the teaching workshop, they had never served men before, but they came here suddenly tonight.

They were also told that if they were kicked out of the room, their lives would be over.

"Please don't drive our sisters away, my lord, we sisters are willing to do anything for you..."

The pear blossoms bring rain, and the hope is pitiful,
Ji Boying took a deep breath of the cigarette at the corner of his mouth and crushed it out.

He is not a womanizer, but it is a pity that he has a kind heart, and a kind person is always a bit tired in life.

"I'll teach you a game."

The second daughter subconsciously raised her head to look at Ji Boying, with doubts in her tearful eyes.

The corner of Ji Boying's mouth raised slightly, and with a wave of his hand, two bottles of Remy Martin XO appeared beside the table.

"It's called High Mountain and Flowing Water."

 There are easter eggs and photos of sisters in the back, and they have to be coded before they can be sent out. Let's make do with it, and be restrained.
