Chapter 53 The world belongs to the common people, and those who are virtuous live in it(1/2)
"When the emperor..."
Before Ma Sandao could finish his words, Lan Yu covered his mouth, forcing him to hold back all the rest of his words.
"What is the emperor?"
Li Jin's eyes were confused. He didn't know what kind of plane these two people were doing.
"The emperor's relative."
Lan Yu answered directly.
Li Jin rolled his eyes and said:
"This is not nonsense."
"He left just in time. This old man has a bad temper. Let's continue drinking."
"Where did you talk about just now? Oh, yes, let's continue talking about our big business."
This is Li Jin's purpose, he wants to pull them all onto his pirate ship.
With their joining, his next plan can proceed normally.
Just when Li Jin was about to continue speaking, Lan Yu smiled awkwardly:
"This... let's talk about this next time."
"I have something urgent to do today, so I'll leave first!"
After saying that, he took Ma Sandao and left without giving Li Jin a chance to talk to him.
It looked like someone was biting him from behind.
"We all have other things to do. Let's say goodbye first and talk about it later."
Several other Huaixi generals also followed Lan Yu and turned around to leave.
After everyone left, Li Jin looked at the empty seats speechlessly and said depressedly:
“What a big loss today!!!”
I originally thought that I could catch these rich locals today and have a good harvest, but I didn't expect that they were all disturbed by Lao Huang.
Li Jin found that every time he met this old man, nothing good happened!
.....
After Lan Yu stepped off the boat, Masandao broke away from Lan Yu's pull and asked angrily:
"Why don't you let me tell that boy Li Jin the true identity of the emperor?"
"Confused!"
Lan Yu scolded as if she hated iron but not steel:
"Masandao, Masandao! Aren't you going to use your brain?"
"If the emperor wanted Li Jin to know his identity, wouldn't the emperor tell him himself? Why bother talking about it with you?"
"Today Li Jin scolded the emperor in front of the emperor. I'm afraid the emperor will never let this boy go."
"Let's leave quickly. I just hope the emperor won't anger us."
"But, that guy Li Jin is our fellow Fengyang fellow!"
Ma Sandao still felt that Li Jin looked familiar, and it felt unkind to leave like this.
"But what? Think about your mother at home. Do you want her to give her white hair to her black hair?"
Lan Yu saw Ma San Dao grinding and whining, and shouted directly:
"Get away quickly!"
When he heard his mother's name, Ma Sandao could only sigh, then lowered his head and hurried home without saying a word.
...
After Zhu Yuanzhang left Huafang, he had been in a state of despair.
It was the national policy set by Zhu Yuanzhang to seal the king and guard the border. In his mind, this national policy must be passed down.
Not only must it be passed down, but each generation of Ming emperors must have many children and grandchildren.
If this continues, the entire territory of the Ming Dynasty will be guarded by the vassals of the Ming Dynasty.
The emperor sits in the court, and the vassal princes guard the territory. The court does not need military commanders, but only civilian officials.
Since ancient times, there has been no precedent for a successful civil servant rebellion.
Zhu Yuanzhang's move can be said to be another method to fundamentally prevent military commanders from harming the country.
From now on, all the military power in the world will belong to the Zhu family, and this splendid country will always belong to the Zhu family.
This is Zhu Yuanzhang's beautiful fantasy about the future of the Ming Dynasty.
As Li Jin said, how could it be possible that what Zhu Yuanzhang thought was only 200 years?
He also wanted to pass on this legacy to the generations to come.
But all this is just his own beautiful fantasy.
Today at the wine table, all of this was ruthlessly exposed by Li Jin.
The so-called descendants of Zhu Yuanzhang are not necessarily the descendants of Zhu Biao.
How could Zhu Biao be so kind as to give up his country to others?
When Zhu Biao ascends the throne and sees the Ming vassal kings all over the world, how will he feel?
Zhu Biao may miss his brotherly love, but what about Zhu Biao's son and grandson?
Three generations later, these people were nominally relatives, but they still lost their emotional ties.
At that time, in order to take back his power, the emperor must take action against the feudal king.
Brothers fight each other, uncles and nephews fight, the chaos in the Ming Dynasty comes from within, not from outside.
But Zhu Yuanzhang was unwilling to do what Li Jin said.
If he really did what Li Jin did, his wishes would be completely disrupted.
Because of this, Zhu Yuanzhang felt that his heart was in a state of confusion.
"Father? Father!!"
Unknowingly, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao had returned to the study room.
Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was still distracted, Zhu Biao couldn't help but raise his voice.
Only then did Zhu Yuanzhang come back to his senses. Seeing Zhu Biao's worried eyes, Zhu Yuanzhang let out a long sigh.
"Father, are you okay?"
"It's nothing, it's just that something bothers my father."
While Zhu Yuanzhang was speaking, he slowly sat on the chair and kept rubbing his brow with his right hand.
Zhu Biao heard this and asked tentatively:
"Is it because Li Jin said that he was granted the title of king to guard the border?"
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and asked:
"Biao'er, do you think Li Jin is right?"
"My son feels..."
Zhu Biao glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang secretly. He knew that Zhu Yuanzhang might not be very satisfied with Li Jin's words.
But seeing Zhu Yuanzhang staring at him closely, Zhu Biao knew that lying was useless, so he had to take a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said:
"Li Jin is right!"
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he thought that Zhu Biao might not understand his intentions, so he couldn't help but explain aloud:
"Biao'er, do you know our intention of entrusting the king to guard the border?"
"We are doing it for the prosperity of our old Zhu family, for..."
Zhu Yuanzhang told Zhu Biao all his thoughts, and the general idea was that he would do it for the future of the Zhu family for generations to come.
Afterwards, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Biao expectantly, hoping that Zhu Biao would agree with his point of view.
However, Zhu Biao fell into silence. He was no longer as weak and obedient as before. Instead, he lowered his head and frowned in thought.
When Zhu Yuanzhang saw this, he didn't say anything. He just looked at Zhu Biao, wanting to see what Zhu Biao had to say.
After a while, Zhu Biao slowly raised his head, looked directly into Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, and said word by word:
"Father, this world belongs to the people, and this country belongs to the virtuous."
Zhu Yuan's pupils shrank suddenly, and his whole person immediately exuded an intimidating aura, making Zhu Biao feel extremely depressed.
But this momentum comes and goes even faster.
