Chapter 84
"Listen to this, you've been fighting in Yunnan for the past two years, and you've spent a lot of money in your pockets!"

The old man's voice was a little cold, Lan Yu didn't dare to speak, but first secretly raised his head, and glanced at the prince Zhu Biao who was sitting upright.

"We're talking to you, what do you think the prince is doing?" the old man said angrily, "You wait for him to protect you? Let's talk about it when he becomes the emperor!"

Hearing this, Zhu Biao smiled wryly.

"I dare not!" Lan Yu was sweating profusely and kowtowed heavily, her tone trembling, "I didn't mean that!" Then, she adjusted her tone, "The minister has fought in Yunnan for a few years, and gained some extra wealth. However, they are all local chieftains, and the goods copied by the former Yuan official Zongwang. I will remember your Majesty’s teachings, and the money of ordinary people.”

"Just count your men, poor military discipline!" The old man interrupted Lan Yu in a cold voice, "Don't think we don't know, those men under your command are two in war, but they are three in robbery. "As he spoke, he said in a cold voice, "You and that black-faced fellow Chang Yuchun have the same virtue, we will have fun if we don't see it at a glance!"

"You are now the Marquis of Ming Dynasty, and you have a crown prince's promotion. The future is limitless. Let us correct the stinky problems in the past!" The old man continued, "Don't let us hear about the killing of prisoners and robbery. Otherwise , hum, do you think we have a good temper, or are you patient?"

"I dare not!" Lan Yu kowtowed heavily again, saying that she did not dare.

They Huaixi nobles, no matter what kind of person they are, as long as they see the old man, they are like a mouse seeing a cat. Even if they have done nothing wrong, their calves will feel cramped.What's more, what the old man said has something to say.

The purpose of fighting is for glory and wealth.Besides, if the coach is as clean as water, the brothers below will not be able to make a fortune.Counting on the scattered military pay, it is not enough to drink flowers and wine.So when it's time to grab, you must not be soft-handed.

But this kind of thing can only be understood but not expressed in words.Now that the old man brought it up in person, if the old man is serious, it is a crime.

"It's not that we are picky, and it's not that we don't know how to pity the soldiers!" The old man continued in a deep voice, "You are a commander in chief, and to be a commander in chief is to act like a commander in chief. The army of Ming Dynasty also has a national army. You look like you, fight all the way and rob all the way, don't you let the common people poke their backs?"

"Besides, is such a good thing?" The old man said angrily again, "Those scholars don't care if you have military exploits after hearing this, and they will definitely join you to death. When the time comes, you will say whether we will deal with you or not. ?”

"I would like to follow His Majesty's instructions!" Lan Yu said.

It has been 15 years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and the nobles in the court and China are powerful, but the scholars who suffered from the plague always stare at these nobles.A little thing, just like a fly seeing a big dung.It seems that if you don't pull down a few meritorious officials, it will appear that they are incompetent civil servants.

"Lanyu is good at doing business!" At this time, Prince Zhu Biao said beside him.

"Hmph, if we didn't see that he is still useful, we wouldn't waste such words with him!" The old man snorted.

Zhu Biao smiled gently, and said to Lan Yu, "Don't panic, the emperor is doing it for your own good. Don't you know his old man's temperament? The more he values ​​a person, the more he says. He doesn't value anyone. , didn’t even say a word!” As he spoke, he shouted to the palace servants outside, “Come here, bring a stool for Marquis Yongchang!”

His father and son had a white face and a red face, which made Lan Yu feel uneasy.

At this time, Lan Yu stood up and saluted as if she had received an amnesty, "Thank you, Your Highness the Crown Prince!" As she spoke, she hurriedly said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En!"

"What Longen?" The old man asked with a straight face.

Lan Yu bowed again and replied, "Minister, thank you Your Majesty for your kindness!"

"Don't thank us, thank you, thank you, prince!" The old man sighed slightly, "It is the prince who has repeatedly said good things about you in front of us, and said your achievements over the years. Otherwise, you think you can be the commander-in-chief of the Beijing camp , can you become the general of Zhu Kingdom?"

At this time, Sapphire is not the god of war Sapphire who almost captured Emperor Meng Yuan alive in the Battle of Diaoyu'erhai. At this time, the famous generals of the Ming Dynasty are still there, and Sapphire has just shown his glory in the army.In the star-studded Ming army, he is far from being the number one. In the young and strong faction, Li Wenzhong, Mu Ying and others can overwhelm him.

"The prince's kindness will never be repaid!" Lan Yu said.

"There is nothing to die, our monarchs and ministers will still have a long time. You lead the troops with all your heart, and I will support you alone!" Zhu Biao smiled, "In the Ming Dynasty, talents must be used to the fullest, and we can't be wronged!"

"You are the prince's in-laws, and you can be regarded as our own family!" The old man also said, "As long as those minor problems are corrected, the future achievements will not be inferior to others. Today we are talking to you with the prince, you should think about it carefully. Ponder!"

For a moment, the uneasiness in Lan Yu's heart disappeared, and turned into a feeling of gratitude that cannot be added.

The emperor and the prince loved him very much and valued him very much.Not everyone can have this kindness.

"It's still the same thing, be careful when leading troops to fight, don't act like you have never seen money!" The old man continued, "These years, what have we missed from you? Don't snatch good things, baba will send them to you!" Come from the palace. First, we don’t need this, and second, we don’t want those civil servants to make noise!”

Lan Yu smiled, "Isn't it the Chinese New Year, and the minister is also expressing his heart to His Royal Highness the Emperor Grandson!"

"It's not about that!" the old man said, "Loyalty is based on things, not things. If you do well, our grandson will reward you in the future." Then, the old man laughed, "You, you, rough There are details. Knowing that we and the crown prince don't care about these things, we will try our best to please our grandson!"

The old man smiled, and this matter is over.

The three monarchs and ministers gossiped for a while, and then let Lan Yu retreat. Before leaving, Zhu Biao also rewarded Lan Yu with a few boxes of snacks and a few pieces of cloth.

~~~
"He is a man, giving such an important New Year gift to Dasun is also to let us see how loyal he is and how close he is to us!"

There were only the two of Zhu's family in the hall, so the old man's words were not so reserved.

"This is cleverness!" The old man leaned back on the chair, "It needs to be beaten!"

"What the father said is true!" Zhu Biao laughed, "Lan Yu has some talents, but sometimes his vision is not so broad!"

"It's not that you don't have a broad vision, it's that you have a heart!" The old man corrected, "He's prone to cocking his tail, you have to remind him all the time." He opened his eyes, "Employee, you have to be able to control him at any time and let him go east." , he dare not go west!"

Zhu Biao smiled, "What if you can't control it?"

The old man also laughed, and wrote lightly, "Kill it!" Then he closed his eyes again, "Son, you are fine in everything, but you are too soft-hearted. You are not like us in this regard. Kindness does not command soldiers, justice does not Gathering money, none of what our ancestors said was wrong!"

"I remember it!" Zhu Biao said with a smile.

It was Prince Zhu Biao's handwriting to promote Sapphire.

Now in the Ming army, the power of the veterans still exists, which is not necessarily a good thing for the king, and of course it is not a good thing for their ministers.

Therefore, select emerging generals and let them gradually replace those veterans, without disabling the generals who can fight in the army.Therefore, Lan Yu, who was born in Huaixi and is a nobleman with a foreign relative, became the best candidate.

Of course, on the other hand, Sapphire also has excellent military talents, enough to take on great responsibilities.

"I've been doing this for a long time, and I'm hungry!" The old man got up, "Let's go, let's eat!"
