After finishing laughing, Zhu Hongsan and other soldiers pointed to an intermediate officer below and said, "Old Wang, are you the regiment commander now? Tell me how much land I have given you?"

The old king said loudly: "Go back to Your Majesty, the senior official followed His Majesty's twelve battles, and promoted his merits to the regiment commander, with the official title of lieutenant colonel. The current land is 1,216 acres and two factories!"

"Okay, tell me how many wives you have married!"

"Haha, I ask Your Majesty Hong Fu, Lao Wang originally had a yellow-faced woman. He married three local Japanese women during his expedition to Japan. Now he has two sons and one daughter!"

Zhu Hongsan nodded and said to the others: "Did you see it? As long as you are willing to work hard for me, I will give you money, beautiful land! If you make great contributions, I will be named your Duke and Majesty, and see if you have the ability!"

Zhu Hongsan has not had a large number of titles for marquis since Guangzhou. Unlike the unscrupulous titles of Emperor Yongli, Zhu Hongsan has at most a hereditary Jinyiwei family and a hundred households. As for those dukes and marquises, they can only be enthroned after being unified across the country.

All the soldiers on the playground were excited by Zhu Hongsan's agitation and shouted: Long live Your Majesty!

At this time, behind Zhu Hongsan, a child voice shouted loudly on the side of the prince Zhu Hai: "Being an emperor is so powerful, I want to be an emperor too!"

As soon as the sound came out, the platform became quiet immediately. Everyone looked at the source of the child voice. The ignorant person dared to say this!

The prince Zhu Hai's face was ashamed at this time. This child voice was exactly what his son, the eldest son Zhu Shengduo said.

Zhu Shengduo was born in the second year of Shenwu. According to the algorithm of ancient Chinese people, he is six years old this year. Although he is young, he has Zhu Hai's excellent genes. Zhu Shengduo, who is five or six years old, has grown to the waist of an adult, and is about the same height as a seven or eight-year-old boy.

After Zhu Shengduo's mother Xiang was sentenced to death, Zhu Hongsan handed him over to Qian Yuting for adoption. However, Zhu Hongsan had never seen this eldest grandson in recent years. Today, Zhu Hongsan ordered all adult princes to leave the city. Zhu Shengduo pestered his father Zhu Hai and wanted to go. There was no way, Zhu Hai had to take him out, but he didn't know that he would say such a ruthless thing on the spot.

When Zhu Hai heard his son say this, he quickly pulled Zhu Shengduo to kneel down and kowtowed to Zhu Hongsan and said, "Father, my son is incompetent in discipline. Let Zhu Shengduo say such ruthless words. Please punish him!"

King Zhu Huai of Chu was originally incompatible with the prince. Now, seeing this good opportunity, isn’t it a big hit?

"Brother Prince, Tong Yan Wuji, my eldest nephew may have said it as he heard you talk too much at home!"

Zhu Huai's words were malicious. The prince said too much at home? What did he say? I'm the emperor? The prince was the crown prince. Can't wait to learn from Li Shimin?

When Zhu Hai heard Zhu Huai’s injury on the side, he kowtowed and said, “Father, don’t listen to the third brother’s words. My son didn’t say that at home at all!”

Just when the prince was nervous, Zhu Hongsan didn't say anything, but was interested in watching the five or six-year-old Zhu Shengduo.

What occasion is this? There are 50,000 or 60,000 people all over the playground, and the atmosphere is solemn. This child can say that without hesitation, or have great ambitions.

Zhu Hongsan stepped forward and pulled Zhu Shengduo over. It was the first time he looked at the eldest grandson carefully. Zhu Shengduo's eyebrows looked very much like Zhu Hongsan, especially those eyes, which were like Zhu Hongsan.

"You little guy, why did you say that?" Zhu Hongsan saw that Zhu Shengduo was a little scared by the atmosphere, so he asked in a whisper.

"The emperor is the emperor, and he can make thousands of people die. The grandson looks at the mighty, so he said that!" Zhu Shengduo said loudly in his childish voice.

Zhu Hongsan likes this grandson more and more. His authority has grown in recent years. Not to mention the ministers below, even Zhu Hai and other adult princes were trembling when they saw him. Only this young child was not afraid of his emperor authority.

"Oh? Little guy, do you know what you said just now is disrespectful?"

"Grandpa, you are the emperor, and your grandson's father is the crown prince. So in the future, should the grandson become the emperor? So what the grandson said is not wrong!"

Zhu Hongsan couldn't help laughing when he heard what Zhu Shengduo said interestingly. Zhu Hai couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw his father laughing. It seemed that the crisis had passed.

Zhu Hongsan picked up Zhu Shengduo and asked, "I asked the adult prince to leave the city, why did you run out with him?"

"Grandpa Emperor, it's really boring to be in the palace. Uncle Qi refused to play with me and was only concerned about studying, so his grandson begged his father to take me out!"

The seventh uncle Zhu Shengduo mentioned is Zhu Xun, the son of the imperial concubine Qian Yuting, who is one year older than Zhu Shengduo and has entered school this year.

Zhu Hongsan touched Zhu Shengduo's little face and asked, "I have found a master-study scholar for you Uncle Qi, why don't you learn from it?"

"My grandson feels that learning is not very useful. People become stupid after learning too much. Just like Uncle Qi, what does Ziyue's poem mean every day? Or is it fun to ride a horse and fight!"

"Hand a horse and fight? Have you ever ridden a horse?" The harem management is very strict. Not to mention fighting, each of these dragon sons and grandsons has seven or eight people to take care of. How can they fight like ordinary children?

"I haven't rode a horse, but I've fought!"

"Oh? Who are you fighting with?" Zhu Hongsan was very curious. Anyone in the harem dared to fight with him?

"It's my seventh and I, against my sixth and eighth and the others. They are not opponents, and we always ask for help!"

When Zhu Hongsan heard that it was some children's games, he couldn't help but smile: "Little guy, what do you like if you don't like studying?"

When Zhu Shengduo heard the emperor ask about this, he happily replied: "The grandson likes muskets, but he has never touched them. The Jinyiwei in the palace did not allow his grandson to touch them!"

Zhu Hongsan heard him say this and said, "Okay, I will let you touch it today!" After Zhu Hongsan said that, he reached out to take a short-handled musket from the Jinyiwei beside him and handed it to Zhu Shengduo.

Of course, the muskets used by the Jinyiwei are all high-quality products. The triggers and hammers made of brass, and the barrels made of fine steel, exudes the light of the industrial age.

After taking it, Zhu Shengduo couldn't put it down and played with it. Seeing that he liked it so much, Zhu Hongsan asked, "It's fun! How about shooting a shot?"

"Okay! Grandpa Emperor teaches me!"

Under Zhu Hongsan's hands-on teaching, Zhu Shengduo put on gunpowder without loading lead bullets, and then shot him into the sky.

After hearing the gunshot, Zhu Shengduo was very happy and shouted: "Grandpa Emperor, would you please give this musket to your grandson?"

Looking at Zhu Shengduo who was happy to play with muskets, Zhu Hongsan felt that he had returned to Zhu Hai's childhood. At that time, he was in a stage of rapid development and had no time to accompany Zhu Hai. Every time he returned home, Zhu Hai liked to pester himself and ask questions like Zhu Shengduo.

Thinking of this, Zhu Hongsan couldn't help but look at Zhu Hai who was kneeling aside, but what he saw was no longer the son who admired him, but the prince who turned into a panic-looking face.

Zhu Hongsan sighed secretly, and it seemed that he would never want to go back to the past. Thinking of this, Zhu Hongsan said to Zhu Shengduo: "Zhu Shengduo, since you like the army, do this! How about I bring you with me in this Northern Expedition?"

Zhu Shengduo was overjoyed when he heard this. He had long wanted to stay in the palace. He was not just eunuchs or palace maids. The only few friends had to study every day and had no time to play with him. Now that the emperor is willing to take him to the battle, it is natural that he is better.

Zhu Shengduo looked at his father Zhu Hai. Zhu Hai quickly lowered his head and said, "Father, Zhu Shengduo is still young and will be in school next year. It is inevitable that he will delay his studies when he goes to the battle with his father!"

Zhu Hongsan snorted: "Hmph, what's the point of studying? You can't recognize a few big words. You will not sweep the world with your army? Okay! I decided to take Zhu Shengduo to war. Prince, please stay in the capital and supervise the country!" After Zhu Hongsan said that, he took Zhu Shengduo down the platform, rode his horse to the Jinchuanmen Ferry, and prepared to cross the Yangtze River.

When Zhu Hai saw his father and his son leave, he quickly stood up. It was not that he didn't like his father taking Zhu Shengduo away, but his father favored Zhu Shengduo so that something big would happen to his family!

Zhu Hai now has two sons, one is the eldest son Zhu Shengduo and the other is the legitimate son Zhu Shengyu. The successor of the prince was Zhu Shengyu, because Zhu Shengyu's grandfather was the chief assistant Ma Mingyuan. Now Zhu Hai can hold the position of the prince with a solid contribution to Ma Mingyuan. Now that his father is so kind to Zhu Shengduo, it is inevitable that Ma Mingyuan will feel a grudge. If his position is unstable because of such a small matter, it will be more than worth the loss.

When Zhu Hai saw that his father had left, he did not dare to delay and went straight to his prince's East Palace and asked Shuangxi to find his advisers, Xia Wanchun and Qian Yiai.

After a while, both strategists arrived, Xia Wanchun bowed and asked, "Your Highness, have you gone out of the city to see His Majesty? Why are you back so early?"

"Hey, the two gentlemen don't know. Something happened outside the city just now. I came back to summon the two gentlemen and asked them to analyze what should I do?" Zhu Hai finished speaking and talked about what happened just outside the city.

Xia Wanchun was very unhappy after hearing this, stood up and bowed and said, "Your Highness, how can you take the emperor out of the city privately? Let the assistant Ma know what to do about this matter!"

"Hey, I'm just worried about this, so I'm looking for two of you to see how to make up for it!"

Xia Wanchun thought for a while and said, "Your Highness, since things have come to this point, please let Your Highness explain clearly to the Master Ma, and promise that the legitimate son Zhu Shengyu will be the crown prince in the future!"

Qian Yiai was sneering at Xia Wanchun when she heard this, saying, "Hmph! The woman's opinion! I originally thought that Xia Cungu had some tricks! It turned out that she was not apologizing for her! "

Xia Wanchun and Qian Yiai are simply roosters and centipedes, and they will fight when they meet. When Xia Wanchun heard Qian Yiai say that she had no good idea, she couldn't help but say angrily: "Okay! You are very resourceful, Xia will see what you can do!"
