Ming Dynasty: He was ordered to give lectures in prison, but Lao Zhu eavesdropped and made people nu

Chapter 35: New guest in prison: Liu Bowen

The next day.

Be careful.

Zhu Yuanzhang and his son came down from the morning court and came here to change their clothes.

At this moment, Liu He, the personal eunuch, came to report, and Liu Bowen, the sincere uncle, was waiting outside the palace.

"Liu Bowen?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment. Wasn't he bedridden and unable to go to court?Why did you come to your door today?

"Announce Liu Bowen's visit!"

After a while, Liu Bowen walked in tremblingly with a walking stick.

"Your Majesty, Liu Bowen, is here to see you."

"See His Royal Highness."

"Free gift!"

Seeing that Liu Bowen was about to kneel down, Zhu Yuanzhang winked at Zhu Biao, and Zhu Biao quickly stepped forward to support Liu Bowen.

"Mr. Liu, you are not in good health. Why are you here? Please sit down."

Zhu Yuanzhang waited for Liu Bowen to sit down and said with great interest:
"Bowen, I guess you're not here to see us, but you're here to see someone specifically, right?"

Seeing that the emperor had guessed his thoughts, Liu Bowen did not hide it:

"Your Majesty, ever since Your Majesty showed me the policy paper at your residence, we have been eager to meet this person, and we hope that Your Majesty will allow you to do so."

Zhu Yuanzhang stroked his beard and laughed:

"I knew you, Liu Bowen, would feel itchy after seeing that policy paper. Why did you write ink? Let's go to jail now."

"Boss, prepare a separate soft car for Uncle Chengyi."

"promise!"

Zhu Biao agreed, and the three of them got up and headed to the prison.

……

Prison.

As the time for Queen Qiu's interrogation approached, Lin Che seemed a little excited.

You can go back to your previous life before you see it, see your parents and family, and live your own petty bourgeoisie life.

You can still play with your mobile phone when you have nothing to do, and life is not as boring as here.

As usual, it's feeding time.

The warden invited him into Zhu Xi's luxurious prison cell.

As soon as Lin Che sat down, the jailer put out a sumptuous meal.

Lin Che's favorite Yingtianfu charcoal barbecue duck is of course indispensable.

Zhu Xi took out a jar of old wine sealed with soil in the corner and boasted:

"Mr. Lin, you are in for a treat. This is a century-old wine that I spent a lot of effort to get from outside."

"You can rarely drink it even outside."

"You must have a great time today!"

As he spoke, he patted off the mud seal and poured a full cup for Lin Che.

Lin Che sniffed it and realized that this stupid young man was not bragging. It was indeed a good wine.

The aroma of wine overflowed, and the entire cell was filled with the aroma of wine.

Lin Che picked up the wine cup and took a sip. The aroma of the wine lingered in her mouth, and she couldn't help but praise: "Good wine!"

next door.

Zhu Yuanzhang's nose was almost crooked with anger.

When he sent Zhu Ming back to prison, he specifically ordered the guards not to treat the second prince in any special way.

These people turned a deaf ear to his words.

Not only was it delicious and delicious, but I also got some fine wine from the imperial palace.

Zhu Yuanzhang glared at Zhu Biao fiercely. If Liu Bowen hadn't been there, he would have beaten him with a jade belt.

Zhu Biao looked at Lao Zhu with an innocent face, his eyes saying, Dad, we were wronged!

Lao Zhu turned to look at Liu Bowen and saw a smile on his face.

Suddenly, he was angry and said angrily:
"This evil barrier!"

Fortunately, at this time, a question and answer came from the other side, attracting the attention of the three people.

"Mr. Lin, what are we talking about today?"

Zhu Xiang asked impatiently after pouring the wine.

As the time for Lin Che's interrogation approached, Zhu Ping felt more and more precious about time and life.

It's really a waste for Lin Che, such a peerless talent, to be beheaded like this.

I don’t know if the queen mother and eldest brother persuaded the father.

Lin Che took a sip of wine, narrowed her eyes and said:

"I don't have much time. Before I leave, I have to tell you something practical." "Today we won't talk about the evil policies of the Ming Dynasty. Let's talk about the knowledge you are familiar with."

"Knowledge we are familiar with?"

Zhu Xi was a little confused. What knowledge was he familiar with, wielding swords and guns?

"Have you not been clamoring to follow the general in the Northern Expedition?"

Looking at Zhu Xi who looked confused, Lin Che smiled and said:
"Then tell me, who is the biggest threat to the Ming Dynasty in the north?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Xi said almost without thinking:
"Of course they are the remnants of Beiyuan."

This time the imperial court is planning to send General Xu Da to attack the Naierbuhua tribe, a remnant of the Northern Yuan Dynasty.

Although the Ming Dynasty made several Northern Expeditions, Bei Yuan was defeated and fled.

But the royal court of Beiyuan is still there, and there are tens of thousands of Mongolian cavalry in Mobei.

After the death of Wang Baobao, the famous general of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, Naerbuhuabu was the only opponent in the Northern Yuan Dynasty who had the ability to compete with the Ming Dynasty.

Taking advantage of the Ming Dynasty's slight laxity, these Mongols went south to harass the northern border towns many times.

My father was often worried that he could not wipe out the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty in one fell swoop.

However, Lin Che shook her head while holding the wine bowl:

"I said you clamor to join the Northern Expedition every day, but you can't even figure out the biggest threat to the Ming Dynasty."

"It's a waste to participate!"

Lin Che drank the wine from the wine bowl in one gulp and rolled her eyes at Zhu Xi.

"Isn't it Beiyuan Naerbuhuabu? Is it Liaodong Nahachubu?"

Zhu Ping hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively.

Zhu Yuanzhang next door also had the same idea.

There are still two major remnants of Beiyuan in the north and northeast.

One is the tens of thousands of elites left in the hands of the Northern Yuan Dynasty.

Another one is the Beiyuan-affiliated Naha Chubu who controls Liaodong, with 20 troops under his command.

However, Naha Chubu has long been willing to surrender.

Previously, Naha sent an envoy to contact Fu Youde, the general of the Ming Dynasty's frontier army.

Express his willingness to submit to the Ming Dynasty.

This time Zhu Yuanzhang sent Xu Da to the north to conquer the Naerbuhua tribe, and by the way, he recruited the Naha tribe who controlled Liaodong.

However, Lin Che still shook her head.

Not only was Zhu Xi dumbfounded now, but Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao were also confused!

They really couldn't figure out who else could threaten the Ming Dynasty besides these two forces in the north.

Seeing Zhu Ming looking at her blankly, Lin Che poured him a bowl of wine and reminded:

"You gave the right direction, but not the right person?"

"The direction is right."

Zhu Xi chewed Lin Che's words in his mouth and said blankly:
"In addition to Naha Chu, which other force in Liaodong can threaten the Ming Dynasty?"

In fact, Zhu Xi knew that there was a small affiliated country called Goryeo in the Liaodong region.

It's just that this small subsidiary country is too weak and has been controlled by the Beiyuan Royal Court before.

Not to mention threatening the Ming Dynasty, as long as there is a little bit of caution towards the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty cavalry can destroy him in minutes.

Zhu Fang simply did not believe that Goryeo could threaten the Ming Dynasty's borders.

Seeing Zhu Ming's confused look, Lin Che dipped her fingers into the wine bowl and wrote two words on the table.

"Jurchen!"

Zhu Xi stood up, looked at these two words, and couldn't help but exclaimed.

next door.

Zhu Yuanzhang and the other three heard these two words clearly through the listening urn.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked suspicious.

He knew that since the Jurchen Jin Kingdom was destroyed by the Mongols, the Jurchens had almost been wiped out.

The remaining Jurchens were driven by the Mongols into the primitive forests of the extremely cold land of Liaodong, and lived an almost primitive life.

Let alone fighting now, even survival is a problem.

What's more, Liaodong is still under the control of the Mongolian Nahachu, and it is difficult for these Jurchens to get out of the virgin forest.

Is this Lin Che making too much of a fuss?

however.

Liu Bowen, who had been sitting on the chair with his eyes closed, opened his eyes with a look of shock.

As early as Lin Che said that the Ming Dynasty's real rival was in Liaodong, he had already guessed it in his heart.

Although the Kingdom of Jin was destroyed for more than 200 years, the "shame of Jingkang" left by the Kingdom of Jin to the Han nation was really impressive.

Liu Bowen suddenly stood up from his chair, saluted Zhu Yuanzhang and said:
"Your Majesty, I deeply believe what this son said."
