Zhu Xiongying taught his cousins ​​a lesson. This matter was not a secret at all. It would spread quickly, and many people would know such news.

Seeing his eldest son returning to the East Palace, Da Zhu smiled and said, "Your second uncle, third uncle, and fourth uncle all want to thank you too. Thank you for helping them discipline their sons."

"Father, the emperor's uncles really want to thank me in the future." Zhu Xiongying said with a smile, as if he didn't hear Da Zhu's complaint, "If the emperor's uncles are so docile, they will inevitably encounter some troubles in the future.

.I feel that not only the emperor’s uncles want to thank me, but also the emperor’s grandfather will support me.”

Da Zhu was also happy now. He felt that there must be no big problem with what Zhu Xiongying said, because he knew very well what Lao Zhu was thinking.

It was Lao Zhu's determination to establish a direct heir. Lao Zhu really hoped to make a good start and avoid as much as possible some of the things that happened in the previous dynasty.

Thinking of something, Da Zhu asked with a smile, "Did you go a little beyond the specifications when the Marquis of Xiping returned to Beijing this time?"

Zhu Xiongying was a little speechless and said angrily, "This Ministry of Etiquette is really unreliable. I just said something here, and they immediately betrayed me. But I think there is no problem with the courtesy of the country and the royal family."

"

"That's true. Brother Wenying is a member of my royal family." Da Zhu laughed and then said to Zhu Xiongying, "Your grandpa Huang also said that he is going to let Xi'er marry Muchun."

Zhu Xiongying was stunned and a little embarrassed, "Mu Chun will definitely inherit the title in the future. If Xi'er gets married, it will be necessary. Forget it, Mu Chun is a good match, and children can understand these things."

Since you were born into a royal family, you naturally need to make some mental preparations when enjoying the glory and wealth. Don't think too much about things like freedom of love. That is very unrealistic. Zhu Xiongying has already had this.

consciousness.

Not to mention him as the grandson of the emperor, even the emperor and the prince were somewhat helpless at this time. Some people in their harem were also motivated by political considerations.

It is necessary to pay attention to the balance among civil servants, nobles or aristocratic families. Among Lao Zhu's concubines, there are also Koreans and Mongolians.

Seeing Zhu Xiongying being so sensible, Da Zhu also laughed, "Mu Chun has been fighting with his father since he was a child. His literary talents and martial arts are just like his father's. This child is worthy of our Xi'er."

Zhu Xiongying smiled and said nothing. To be honest, there must be no problem. Muchun is definitely a young hero, and there are basically few women in this world that he is not worthy of. But for such a thing, this is relatively

Said.

In fact, many civil and military nobles in Yingtian Mansion now know that the emperor's grandson values ​​family ties the most and treats his two younger sisters who share the same mother as his heart. He also cares deeply about his younger brother who shares the same mother.

If you want to establish some contact with the prince, you actually have more options, such as the county prince or the princess, which are also very good. It's just that this kind of treatment is not available to ordinary people.

Da Zhu looked at Zhu Xiongying with a smile, and then said, "Ying'er, this time Wenying returns to Beijing, talk to him more. Wenying is in the southwest, so there is no need to worry about the southwest!"

Zhu Xiongying nodded, feeling that there was nothing wrong with such an evaluation. In fact, if Mu Ying was not in charge, it would be really easy for the Yunnan region to break away from the control of the central court. There were chieftains there, and the barbarians would still stage rebellions from time to time.

What's more, Muying is in the southwest, and it's not just about fighting. He vigorously develops farmland to solve the food problem. He builds water conservancy and eliminates floods. He focuses on commercial development and recruits businessmen to enter Yunnan. He develops salt wells, increases financial resources, repairs roads, and protects grain transportation.

Let the people live and work in peace and contentment.

Not only the military, economy, but also culture were vigorously promoted, which made people in Yunnan begin to recognize the Ming Dynasty more in terms of cultural identity.

Da Zhu remembered something and said, "Now that the Ming Dynasty is vast and sparsely populated, I guess there is not much food pressure. I just observe the lessons of past dynasties. At the end of a dynasty, most of them are land annexation and financial corruption."

Zhu Xiongying nodded sternly, saying that there is no problem, "It is indeed the case, especially since the Ming Dynasty has just been established, many places are still recovering and developing, and the food and land issues are really not a big problem. It's just the annexation of land in the future, and these things

We should pay more attention to it.”

Thinking of something, Zhu Xiongying encouraged him, "Last time, my son and my father said that some students and nobles should not be given too much privileges. Tax exemptions are allowed, but the number of tax exemptions must be limited, and the tendency of donation must be combated.

.”

"In the future, in the history books, my father may be more violent. I'm afraid our Ying'er will also be difficult to be judged kindly." Da Zhu joked, but still asked seriously, "Ying'er, what did you say?

, I also talked with your Grandpa Huang, are you thinking too far?"

Zhu Xiongying was a little excited and said quickly, "I know Grandpa Huang, my father needs to win over scholars. The literary style of the Ming Dynasty is indeed not strong now, especially in the north. But once the ancestral system is established and future generations want to change some rules, then

It’s too difficult.”

Da Zhu carefully considered Zhu Xiongying's statement and felt that there was actually no big problem with what Zhu Xiongying said. Some rules had been established, and it would be too difficult for future generations to change anything.

Zhu Xiongying also continued, "Father, in fact, I also know that there is no eternal policy. The current policy is good, but it does not mean that it will be good for Ming Dynasty in the future. If some things are not considered in the long term, the burden and pressure on Ming Dynasty will be in the future

That’s big.”

"Let's talk about these things with your grandpa in some time." Da Zhu smiled and nodded, then joked, "Your shipping company in Quanzhou has brought a lot of good things to Nanyang, including jewelry, gold and silver.

There are plenty of them, and there is no shortage of spices and minerals.”

Zhu Xiongying smiled and said with certainty, "After conquering Japan and Korea, it's time to consider the border areas. It's time to deal with the chieftains, and control the Jiaozhi area in the future. But for now, I still build my capital city.

, it must be built for Beiping Mansion."

Da Zhu didn't believe this, and joked, "This time you went to Peiping, and it seemed like you didn't do much. But your grandpa Huang said you were going to develop Liaodong."

Zhu Xiongying naturally admitted this, and the reasons were quite good, "Liaodong is vast and sparsely populated, and the land there is also very fertile. Guanzhong is now barren. If we don't develop Liaodong now, in the future, Beiping's food will have to be transported by water from the south."

, the pressure is too much, not to mention there are border troops!"

Da Zhu narrowed his eyes and said immediately, "You went to develop Liaodong, so you took some prisoners of war and did not let them raise horses and let them farm the land. There was no danger to defend there, so they asked people to take the initiative to attack. Can Yuan wanted to come

I keep being driven away by you."

"Sure enough, the son's little thoughts cannot be hidden from the father!" Zhu Xiongying laughed, not embarrassed, "Father, if the son does this, is there any problem?"

Da Zhu did not hide anything and said what he thought, "You can do it this way. You can make the final decision on military and political matters. It's just that the land of Beiping is too important, and you have more soldiers and horses. What's more, we are about to fight.

Japan, Korea, and Peking are even more important."

Zhu Xiongying understood and said with certainty, "Father, don't worry, I will not start a war lightly. If there is a war, I will definitely inform the emperor and my father."

Da Zhu was very satisfied with Zhu Xiongying's awareness. Zhu Xiongying wanted to develop Liaodong, which was in the interests of the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Xiongying wanted to attack the residual Yuan, which was also the long-term strategy of the Ming Dynasty, and it was even more necessary.

support.

However, Da Zhu was sometimes worried, worried that Zhu Xiongying was young and energetic and would expand the war, which would disrupt Ming's series of plans. After all, Goryeo and Japan would be the focus of Ming's attack next.

"Let your brother-in-law and cousin train more troops so that Duke Ying can hold the battle without causing too much trouble." Da Zhu continued and said to Zhu Xiongying, "Gong Ying is probably also my minister, and I have to train a few young people for you.

The more war a person has, the more he will be tempered."

Zhu Xiongying nodded affirmatively, actual combat is the most training.

Zhu Xiongying also wanted to see if his cousin Li Jinglong was Zhao Kuo who was talking about military affairs on paper, or Xu Shu who was in Cao's camp and his heart was with Han!
