Daming: I, Zhu Di, threatened to seize the heir apparent at the beginning!

Chapter 147 Collusion with People Around the Emperor
Royal Palace.

Royal study.

Mao Xiang hurried in from the outside...

When he got close to the imperial case, he held up a thick folded paper: "My lord, this is Jinyiwei of Tuqiao Village, to sum up this trip..."

Zhu Yuanzhang, who had been at his desk reviewing memorials, raised his head when he heard about this.

While receiving the notebook, he was a little dissatisfied and said, "It took them so long to come back, and it took them more than ten days to write out this summary?"

"The minister is guilty."

Mao Xiang lowered his head, confessed with a wry smile.

A lot of things happened along the way, and they had to be sorted out in detail.

As for the Jin Yiwei in Tuqiao Village, who can't read much, they can only send people to Tuqiao Village, and at the same time, they must ensure concealment.

One can imagine the difficulties.

Of course, the emperor was dissatisfied because they didn't do well.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked carefully at the things recorded in the notebook.

After a long time, I put down the booklet and looked at Mao Xiang, "Have you read these contents too? Tell me what you think after reading it."

Mao Xiang wanted to hide his clumsiness for Zhu Di.

But everything Zhu Di did was recorded in the notebook.

He could only bite the bullet and answer: "Zhu Silang has military talent, not to mention the shoulder mark, the small battle in Shandong against the horse bandits' attack fully reflected his military ability..."

"Among them, the most brilliant part is to use arrows to intercept and kill horse bandits to attack, intercept some of them, and put some into the chariot formation for close combat..."

"At that time, he had a very clear purpose, which was to train the villagers of Tuqiao Village!"

"And, well done!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was in a daze.

Yes, if this bastard is willing to bow his head and give in, he can restore his title and send him to Liaodong or the North.

Let him lead the army to fight a few big battles.

Maybe we don't have to rely on Sapphire and others.

……

At a certain moment, Zhu Yuanzhang restrained his thoughts and asked, "Is there any news of his return?"

Mao Xiang shook his head, "Not yet."

……

Just now.

Zhu Di and Zhou Lang have already entered Shandong.

When passing through Liujia Village.

From a distance, I saw people squatting at the entrance of the village. When I saw them, I rolled and crawled, and hurried to the village.

dong dong dong...

They rode their horses and rushed, and when they approached the entrance of the village, the sound of gongs and drums sounded in the village.

Zhou Lang frowned slightly, "Mr. Zhu, what's the matter?"

Zhu Di didn't know, so he shook his head.

"Mr. Zhu..."

When they passed by the village entrance and walked out for a while, there were shouts behind them.

Hearing the sound, Lema stamped his feet.

Zhou Lang turned around and was stunned.

Patriarch Liu Zuchang led a group of villagers, chasing them out of the village.

"Mr. Zhu, wait."

"Go, go back and have a look." Zhu Di said, reined in his horse, turned around, came to the entrance of the village and got off his horse.

Liu Zuchang rushed over with a group of villagers panting, "Mr. Zhu, when you pass by our Liujia Village, you never enter the village to drink water."

If he hadn't sent someone to wait at the entrance of the village, he might have missed it.

Zhu Di explained with a smile, "It's been more than a month since the long trip, and I'm eager to go home."

"Even if Mr. Zhu is eager to go home, it's not too late. The horses have to drink water and rest, right?" Liu Zuchang took Zhu Di's hand and walked to the village, "I'll let someone arrange to feed your horses some concentrated feed .”

"Mr. Zhu first went to the old man's house to have a light meal."

So enthusiastic.

Zhu Di had no way to refuse.

So he smiled and suggested, "Clan chief Liu, can you take me to the ancestral hall of Liujia Village? I went north to Dezhou, and I met King Qin..."

He wanted to see the monument of merit.

"Of course, half a month ago, the folks in our village returned and went to see it."

Liu Zuchang was afraid that Zhu Di would not know about it, so he was very happy to hear that Zhu Di wanted to go and have a look.

Excitedly took Zhu Di and Zhou Lang to the Liu Family Ancestral Hall.

Zhu Di saw the smooth stone tablet.

"My name!" Zhou Lang found his name on the inscription, pointed to it, and was very excited.

Follow Mr. Zhu to deliver food and grass once.

made money.

Learned a lot.

Increased knowledge.

It can also be written by a village, erecting a monument and engraving its name on it.

Zhu Di smiled, clasped his fists at Liu Zuchang and said, "Patriarch Liu has a heart, but I have to tell the truth to Patriarch Liu."

"At the beginning, I didn't want to put the 47 people in Tuqiao Village in danger for the sake of Lingai, so I finally agreed..."

Patriarch Liu listened carefully, and instead of being angry, he nodded with a smile, "Mr. Zhu's choice at that time is completely understandable to me."

"Since ancient times, the lessons of the farmer and the snake abound."

"The old man has lived for so long, and he has not accomplished anything else, but his eyes for seeing people, I think I still have some skills."

"Mr. Zhu is indifferent on the outside, but he is a good person. In this world, many people look good on the outside, but they are really bad on the inside. Mr. Zhu is just the opposite."

Zhu Silang, a young man, is a bit like a king outside and a sage inside.

However, this is used to evaluate emperors and monarchs.

He can't use it indiscriminately and bring trouble to his benefactor.

After looking at the stele of meritorious deeds, Zhu Di, as the head of Tuqiao Village, placed incense on Liu's ancestors in the Liu family ancestral hall.

It is formally agreed that the two villages will be friendly from generation to generation.

Later, I went to Liu Zuchang's home for lunch.

Before leaving.

Liu Zuchang bid farewell.

He took off a very ordinary jade from his waist and handed it to Zhu Di.

Zhu Di hurriedly shook his head and declined, "Patriarch Liu, I can't accept this..."

"Mr. Zhu, this piece of jade is worthless, it's just a token." Liu Zuchang interrupted Zhu Di, and explained: "Mr. Zhu and the folks in Tuqiao Village, if they are bullied by local officials and have nowhere to redress their grievances, they can take the old man's piece of jade." Yupei is going to Jinling City, Lin'an Alley..."

……

"A young man in the family will take part in the Chunwei examination next year. He will come to Beijing ahead of schedule, and he has sent the old man's letter to Xiaoer. If Mr. Zhu and the folks in Tuqiao Village encounter difficulties, they can go to Xiaoer. If you can do it, you will do your best.”

……

Zhu Di couldn't help being surprised as he listened.

Liu Zuchang's son actually lives under the door, as a family member?
The officials of Menxia Province specialize in serving the old man.

And the responsibilities of the servants under the door are the same as Fang Xizhi's, responsible for such trivial matters as sorting out the notebooks and transcribing the minutes.

The official position is not obvious.

The little transparency in the palace.

But this is definitely a position that can touch the core secrets.

The ordinary jade pendant in his hand was suddenly hot!
What does he want it for?
Isn't this looking for trouble for nothing, and trouble for yourself!
If you know, there is still such a person in the Liu family who is an official in such a terrible position.

At the beginning, he would directly refuse to be the bait!

Keep a distance from Liu Family Village!

"Patriarch Liu, there is really no need to do this, we..."

"If Mr. Zhu refuses to accept it, he will look down on us Liujia Villagers!"

……

After some refusals, Zhu Di had no choice but to accept.

After saying goodbye to Liu Zuchang, he set off to walk a little further, and told Zhou Lang, "Don't tell anyone about the jade pendant presented by Patriarch Liu."

Although Zhou Lang didn't understand, he still nodded seriously, "Mr. Zhu, I remember."

"Mr. Zhu, I have met many squires and sages, but this patriarch Liu is definitely one of the best!"

Hearing this, Zhu Di smiled.

He glanced at the jade pendant in his hand.

Liu Zuchang has the intention of repaying his kindness, but he also has the intention of utilitarianism.

It must be that Eighth Uncle and the others talked too much, making the other party feel that strengthening and deepening the relationship between the two villages can not only repay their favor, but also benefit.

He has no objection to this.

But this jade pendant is a bit hot!
……

At the entrance of the village, Liu Zuchang looked at the backs of Zhu Di and Zhou Lang as they walked away.

If it weren't for the people of Tuqiao Village to turn back, they would still want to return the carriage.

If it weren't for the period, I heard the villagers of Tuqiao Village tell about what Zhu Silang and his wife did in Tuqiao Village.

He will not give this jade pendant.

The return of the carriage proves that the village style of Tuqiao Village is very upright.

Zhu Silang himself is very talented, if one of the children that his couple educated becomes a talent, this jade pendant will be worth it!

……

A few more days passed.

The sky had just turned white.

Zhu Di and Zhou Lang appeared on the Foreign Official Road in Jiangning County.

Zhou Lang invited: "Mr. Zhu, drive all night and go to the city to rest. If County Magistrate Jiang knows that you are back, he will be very happy."

Zhu Di smiled and shook his head, "No, the closer we get, the stronger the nostalgia for returning home. Isn't it the same for you? Arrived in Jinling yesterday, clamoring to drive overnight."

Zhou Lang smiled and scratched his head, "Then I won't keep Mr. Zhu. Before I leave for Liaodong, I will go to the village to say goodbye to Mr. Zhu."

"it is good!"

Zhu Di responded, galloped his horse and headed towards Tuqiao Village.

Almost two months.

The closer he got to Tuqiao Village, the more he couldn't wait.

Zhou Lang watched Zhu Di disappear from sight, then smiled, and rode his horse to the city gate.

A few yawning yamen servants who opened the city gate saw someone galloping on horseback from a distance.

Rubbing his eyes, he exclaimed when he saw the person clearly.

"Brother Zhou!"

"It's really Brother Zhou!"

When Zhou Lang approached, the two yamen servants who shouted excitedly looked at Zhou Lang, but they were a little scared. Their eyes flickered and they didn't dare to look directly at Zhou Lang. They whispered: "Brother Zhou, I feel that you are different."

Zhou Lang smiled, going out this time, experienced a lot, and participated in several battles.

Of course it's different!
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is reborn!

Smiling and clasping fists to say hello: "Two brothers, after the duty is over, come to Langlang to grill fish. By the way, I will inform the other brothers. I treat you. I will go home and have a look. After I go to see the adults, I will go to the store and wait for the brothers."

After all, I can't wait to ride my horse into the city and go straight to my house.

"Zhou Lang is really different."

"No, even though he was laughing just now, those eyes made me palpitate inexplicably."

……

government office.

After Zhou Lang met his family, he came to thank Jiang Jinzhong immediately.

Jiang Jinzhong looked at Zhou Lang and nodded with satisfaction: "It's different, it's really different, it's a bit like Mr. Tan from that day."

"My lord, Tan Bazong and I have become friends along the way." Zhou Lang said with a smile: "In addition, I want to resign from my lord this time, and I want to join the army in Liaodong."

Jiang Jinzhong didn't seem to be surprised at all, "Go out for a walk, gain knowledge, learn something, and being a small yamen servant in Jiangning can no longer satisfy you. This is normal. Where is Mr. Zhu? , what do you think?"

"Mr. Zhu supports, along the way, Mr. Zhu told me a lot about military knowledge, adults don't know, Mr. Zhu's riding and shooting, this!" Zhou Lang couldn't help it, and gave his thumbs up in admiration.

"Really?" Jiang Jinzhong was surprised.

"Your Excellency doesn't believe me? I'll show you equestrian skills. These are all taught by Mr. Zhu!"

……

Just when Zhou Lang demonstrated equestrian skills for Jiang Jinzhong and others, a group of shocked people clapped and exclaimed.

Zhu Di led the horse.

Appeared outside the small courtyard.

It was obvious that he was pregnant, standing in front of the manger, adding hydroponic wheat seedlings to Xiao Hei and Rhubarb.

The corner of the lips, can't help but smile...
