Chapter 33: Consider me the king of virtue!
Queen Ma patted the edge of the bed again and said softly: "Chongba, come here!"
"If you don't go, aren't you driving us away? Let's leave now!" Zhu Yuanzhang's voice was loud, but he didn't move a step.
Queen Ma sighed, "It seems you want me to beg you on my knees!"
As she said this, she dragged her weak body to get out of bed.
"Hey, don't, don't, don't, don't!" Zhu Yuanzhang hurriedly ran over and hugged her, "Sister, don't come down, it's our fault, okay? You eat first, and then I'll tell you the good news slowly, okay?"
Zhu Yuanzhang likes Empress Ma to call him Chongba the most, and he also likes to call her sister, something like His Majesty's concubine, which sounds annoying to her.
"No, let's talk about Lao Liu's news first!" Queen Ma said.
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't resist her, so he told her what happened, "Tell me, has our son made great progress?"
Empress Ma was doubtful, "Seriously?"
"How can it be false?" Zhu Yuanzhang said with a beaming expression: "Don't tell me, when that brat came up with a solution, we were all stunned.
Otherwise, we are good at breeding. Even if Lao Liu is crazy, he is so smart. If he is not crazy, he is probably a genius.
Come with us!"
Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang's face was arrogant and not pretending at all, Empress Ma also believed most of it, "I have told you to pay more attention to Lao Liu. If you have trained him more over the years, maybe he will go crazy."
It’s already healed!”
Zhu Yuanzhang also looked regretful, "Hey, it's a pity that there is no regret medicine in the world, but it's not too late now. Let's ask him to report to the university hall tomorrow and see if we can remedy it.
Don't let him be a genius, at least don't be a fool.
We don’t need him to be brave and good at fighting. At least when the enemy comes, we will be satisfied if we know how to escape!"
Zhu Yuanzhang likes people with courage the most. When the enemy comes, he must mount a horse to fight.
Being able to get him to say the words "escape" has already greatly relaxed his requirements.
"Then can I go over and see him tomorrow?" Queen Ma asked.
"Okay, but sister, listen to us and don't spoil him too much. He will eventually become a vassal in the future, and we have to teach him to be independent.
In the future, instead of guarding the border, we should at least take good care of our own vassal state!" Zhu Yuanzhang had no choice. For a prince as big as Zhu Jun, his fiefdoms had already been decided and they were all at the border.
Only Zhu Jun's fiefdom remains unresolved.
King Wu was his title before he ascended the throne. Logically speaking, it should be given to the prince.
But Zhu Yu refused to take it, so he gave the title to Zhu Jun, and he received the title of King of Huai.
Most of the generals in Daye are from Huaixi, so his title is not bad.
In fact, he knew very well that Zhu Yu just hoped that he would pay more attention to Zhu Jun, and even said that he would not let Zhu Jun become a vassal, but would take care of Zhu Jun for the rest of his life and keep his younger brother by his side.
This is not what Zhu Yu said in private, he even said this many times in court.
"I'm just going to take a look. I won't do anything!" Empress Ma also softened her tone, "Brother Chongba, I beg you, okay?"
"Hey, okay, okay!" Zhu Yuanzhang sighed, half of his body went numb, "We're afraid of you!"
With that said, he picked up the porridge bowl again and brought it to Queen Ma's mouth, "You should eat it now, right?"
Queen Ma bit her lip, "I'll do it myself!"
"No, let us do it!" Zhu Yuanzhang picked up the spoon and said: "You gave us children and took care of the harem well. I will never be able to repay you in this lifetime."
"You and your wife don't owe each other any favors!" Queen Ma smiled, feeling sweet in her heart.
In Kunning Palace, everyone envied the emperor and empress' affection.
...
After getting rid of the death crisis, Zhu Jun originally wanted to take a nap, but for his own grand plan, he had to 'make changes' appropriately.
"Your Highness, it's still dark, why are you up so early?" Qing He, who was on the bed, felt Zhu Jun get up and woke up quickly.
"Go to school, go to the university hall!" Zhu Jun said: "It's still early, you should sleep a little longer."
Qinghe suddenly woke up and said, "Your Highness, you have already reached the crown, why are you going to the university hall?"
"Read, study!" Zhu Jun said speechlessly: "My father gave a death order, so I can't go."
Qinghe quickly stood up and changed Zhu Jun's clothes, "Then you have to dress more formally!"
After getting dressed, Zhu Jun pointed to his face.
Qing He blushed, clasped his little hands and moved closer, but who would have thought that Zhu Jun turned his head and kissed Zhu Jun on the lips impartially, "Wow, Qing He, are you serious?"
"Ah, Your Highness, you..."
In an instant, Qinghe's pretty face turned red, especially when she thought of His Highness's mischievous hand last night, she did not dare to look at Zhu Jun.
"Be good at home. Let me do the rough work. Just take care of the palace!" Zhu Jun touched Qing He's head and whistled out of the room, feeling very good.
"Xiao Jiji, call Goudong, let's go out!"
After leaving the palace, he was faced with a gust of cold wind. He couldn't help but tighten his clothes, but immediately, he was stunned by the scene in front of the palace.
I saw people lying in various places in front of the palace gate.
There are beggars, women and children, and even children who are crying for food.
"Gou Dongxi, what on earth is going on?"
Xun Busan said hurriedly: "Your Highness, haven't you been recruiting refugees these days? Now the news has spread completely, and many people gathered here last night!"
"Are you trapping me?" Zhu Jun grimaced and wanted to leave, but seeing these people, he really couldn't move.
Not to mention his Holy Mother, when a carrot kneels in front of you, hugging your thighs and crying and begging you for food, can you bear to kick him away?
"Your Highness, there are too many people to save, there are too many, tens of thousands of people!" Xun Busan said: "You are not going to the university hall, so hurry up and don't be late!"
Li Jiba looked at Zhu Jun and wanted to speak but didn't know how.
"Your Highness, please give me food to eat. You can do whatever you want!"
"Your Highness, King Wu, who is rescuing the suffering, please give my grandson a bite to eat, he is about to starve to death!"
The crowd began to cry, and there was a constant stream of pleading voices.
On a very cold day, they huddled together to keep warm. None of them had any clothes on. The children drank from the granary without any food and cried loudly because of hunger.
Too bad!
"Go to the university hall later and tell the kitchen to make porridge. It should be thicker!" Zhu Jun took a deep breath, "Xiao Jiji, go call me all the breakfast vendors in the capital and ask Qinghe for money, but don't push it. I'm afraid there are too many people coming and I won't be able to take care of them!"
Although he has money, he is unable to cope with tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of mouths.
There are still victims coming from various places. He can save them for a while, but not forever!
Li Jiba was overjoyed, "Yes, Your Highness!"
He had government soldiers on his feet and ran over quickly.
