Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and shook his head. No matter how busy the affairs were, he had to handle them personally to feel at ease. Otherwise, he would not even be able to sleep well. He looked at his son and ordered: "Since you are back, you will go to the Changsha Palace in person tomorrow."
Zhu Biao nodded, this is also the case. Li Shanchang's smooth abdication as planned is in the interest of both parties, not to mention his hard work and meritorious service. The visit of the crown prince to express condolences can also show the world that the Zhu family does not forget the founding heroes.
Zhu Biao thought for a while and said: "Father, there are tens of thousands of orphans gathered during this relocation, and they are all placed in the pro-military captain's mansion?"
Zhu Yuanzhang closed his eyes and thought for a while and said: "No, when the pro-army Duwei Mansion was first established, in order to be able to play its role as quickly as possible, we had to recruit too many people. The forces of all parties were mixed, although we can still control it now.
, but it is inevitable that the tail will not fall off in the future.”
Zhu Biao nodded after hearing this. The pro-military Duwei Mansion has developed to the point where spies are all over the country. The reason for such rapid development is not only the strong support of Zhu Yuanzhang, but also the recruitment of local snakes from all over the country.
These people are now climbing up the ladder step by step, but they themselves are not good. As their power expands, the messages they convey are becoming more and more purposeful. I am afraid that they may be related to someone in the DPRK.
Some people got in touch.
Zhu Yuanzhang leaned on the chair and said: "Biao'er, the knife is used to protect yourself and kill the enemy. If the blade is rusty and frustrated, just re-quench it and sharpen it. But if the handle is rotten, you have to be careful, otherwise the key will be
You may injure your hand."
Zhu Biao nodded to express his understanding. Zhu Yuanzhang continued: "We have ordered Quan Xu to be summoned back to Beijing urgently. He will be responsible for training these children. On the surface, we will establish an organization. You can decide what to call it. Later, you will replace your parents."
The military governor's mansion monitors the world."
Zhu Biao also understood his father's thoughts. It seemed that during the time Mao Xiang was away, many mistakes and omissions were made in the pro-army captain's mansion, which made Zhu Yuanzhang very dissatisfied. He was a very controlling person, and the pro-military captain was very dissatisfied.
If the government, as the eyes and ears, cannot satisfy him, then only destruction will be left.
There is still a pro-military captain's mansion, maybe because he is preparing to do something big. Zhu Biao estimates that after slaughtering a group of nobles, the pro-military captain's mansion and Mao Xiang will also come to an end. That person
I do know a lot.
Of course, this is just the beginning of the layout. This matter will take three to five years at the earliest. Hu Weiyong has not yet stepped onto the stage. The nobles are all on their own, and it is not easy to find an excuse.
Zhu Biao smiled. It seemed that Jinyiwei was going to be born in his hands. Without this organization, he always felt like something was missing. What made him even happier was that his father had begun to give him more authority.
There is also a turmoil in the court now. Li Shanchang's retirement is already a certainty. Yesterday there was another memorial to retire. Although he was beaten back by Zhu Yuanzhang, I think that after two more times, Li Shanchang will really step down.
Now Yang Xian's mansion is full of people. He has completely taken over the power of Zhongshu Province. Three of the six ministers are gradually moving closer to him. The ministers of the Ministry of official affairs try their best to resist, but they are still outmatched.
Hu Weiyong hid his talents, and the Xungui Group also criticized this, but he still had no intention of confronting Yang Xian. As for Liu Bowen, he was seriously ill and was also asking for his resignation from Zhu Yuanzhang, but his situation was different from Li Shanchang.
Zhu Yuanzhang did not agree.
These two people have never been dealt with. Liu Bowen's reputation in the court is not low, but he has always been away from the center of power. Zhu Yuanzhang did not use him seriously, but he refused to let him return to his hometown for retirement.
Zhu Biao promised Liu Bowen during the Northern Expedition that he would help him when he resigned. He happened to talk about this with his father, so he said: "Liu Bowen is getting old, so my father will let him return home."
Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head stubbornly: "He has to die in the capital for us. Biao'er, don't trust that guy. His heart is no longer with us, but he still has an amazing talent. We can't let him go even if we don't use him."
Zhu Biao also shook his head helplessly. He didn't know how these two people got to where they are today. To say that he was really disgusted, according to his father's character, Liu Bowen would not die even if he had nine lives. If he didn't hate him, he would still be alive.
It just didn't make him feel comfortable.
Zhu Biao couldn't persuade him any more, otherwise he would be harming instead of helping others. Let's wait and see in a few years. Moreover, the court did still need Liu Bowen. As long as he was in the court, he could play a lot of roles.
After talking with his father for an afternoon, things in the past few months were smoothed out. Zhu Biao also said that Lan Yu had returned. The court first praised him for his contribution to suppressing bandits, and then severely punished him for attacking the county.
of guilt.
Lan Yu was beaten almost to death, and all his titles and official positions were wiped clean. Now he is still lying on the bed unable to get up. When he gets up, he has to go to the city gate to stand guard. This is the errand given to him by the Ministry of War.
In the evening, the father and son had a meal, and then Zhu Biao returned to the East Palace, where he took his princess and slept comfortably all night.
Early the next morning, Zhu Shiran planned to go directly to Changsha Palace to visit Li Shanchang, but was stopped by Chang Luohua and said: "I went to see Jing'er yesterday afternoon, and it took me a long time to ask her whether she heard that Li Qi had contradicted you.
, so I have been worried."
Zhu Biao raised his eyebrows: "What is there to worry about? She is a majestic princess, and Li Qi dares to be disrespectful to her because of this? Jing'er has been timid since she was a child, so you can just coax her."
Chang Luohua pursed her red lips, but wanted to say something but did not say it. After organizing her words, she said: "Jing'er is not worried about this, she is worried that you will alienate her in the future."
Zhu Biao touched his face after hearing this. Jing'er's biological mother had passed away since she was a child, and she had been raised by Queen Ma herself. Zhu Biao also liked this sensible sister very much. He often took care of her when he was a child, and even killed one of her bullies with a cane.
’s slave.
Zhu Biao nodded and said: "Let me go there myself. Li Qi has changed a lot recently and is considered a talent. I have long forgotten those old things."
After saying that, Zhu Biao set off and walked towards Zhu Jingjing's palace. Although her biological mother died young, she was Zhu Yuanzhang's eldest daughter after all and was raised by Queen Ma herself, so she was treated very well in the palace.
.
First, Liu Jin was asked to report that meeting his sister was different from meeting his brother. He had to give the little girl some time to clean up. Zhu Biao walked slowly and leisurely to Zhu Jingjing's Lin'an Hall, and saw his sister wearing a palace satin plain snow skirt, walking quickly towards
He welcomes.
Zhu Biao stood with his hands behind his back and said: "Go slowly, be careful not to fall."
Zhu Jingjing led the maids behind him to prostrate themselves to the ground. Zhu Biao waved to them to get up. Zhu Jingjing walked up to her brother and raised her little face and said, "Brother, why are you here? Come into the room and tell me."
Zhu Biao looked at the little girl who was trying to stay calm and said with a smile: "If you are not the emperor's sister-in-law, then of course I have to come. I can't let you get married with all your grievances."
Zhu Jingjing's eyes lit up when she heard that her brother came to see her specially, and most of the sadness on her face disappeared. Her brother was a very special existence to her.
Although her father, the emperor, and her mother also doted on her, it was different. When she thought that her future husband had contradicted her brother, she was always worried that her eldest brother would not want to see her in the future.
