"If that's the case, I won't be in a hurry to give this longevity fruit to our girl."
In Fengtian Hall, Zhu Yuanzhang, who had completely calmed down, began to ponder again.
It is already March of the second year of Hongwu.
According to history, Chang Yuchun only had four months left to live.
Originally, most of the Northern Expedition had been completed, and the south had been basically cleared. Even if Chang Yuchun died, there would not be much loss to the Ming Dynasty, and there would even be some benefits.
Zhu Yuanzhang did not originally intend to change this history.
Having seen the history of the Ming Dynasty for more than 200 years, he has a harder heart and can be more ruthless than before he went to the late Ming Dynasty.
But now, I suddenly learned that the Ming Dynasty will usher in a revival of spiritual energy, and that in five years, I will get three longevity fruits and even a rebirth pill.
He changed his mind.
A general in the army, especially a general in the army at the level of Huajin Grandmaster, will play a huge role in the great changes that the Ming Dynasty is about to usher in. He needs Chang Yuchun.
As for not being able to complete the task within five years?
This was simply not within Zhu Yuanzhang's consideration.
He already had a general understanding of the influential figures of the late Ming Dynasty.
He could responsibly say that except for Huang Taiji, the so-called influential figures of that era were pretty decent, and the rest were completely useless in front of him, and none of them could beat him.
As for Huang Taiji, he was just a general among the short men, so it was Chongzhen Taiji who gave him a chance. When he goes there again, he will let him see what the real Ming Dynasty Iron Army is.
Zhu Yuanzhang was a decisive person. Once he had made up his mind, he would not hesitate again.
"Mao Xiang!"
"You personally deliver this box to Chang Yuchun and tell him that the contents are given to him by us and you have to watch him eat them with your own eyes. Do you understand?"
"Understood!" Mao Xiang took the box from Zhu Yuanzhang's hand solemnly.
"Lingwu Ming Dynasty is a bit interesting..."
“And our fourth son’s loud slogan!”
"The emperor guards the gate of the country, and the king dies in the country."
"Oh well."
"Fourth, just wait for us...!" Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes flashed with a cold light.
"Master, there are currently six of the most famous Huajin Grandmasters in the world."
"The first one is undoubtedly Wudang Zhang Sanfeng and Master Zhang. Legend has it that this Master Zhang may have entered the innate realm!"
"The second one is Yang Wudi, the leader of the Sun Moon Sect."
"Yang Wudi?"
"This name is a bit crazy!" At the martial arts training ground in the Prince's Mansion, Zhu Biao was practicing martial arts wearing only a short shirt.
What he practiced was the thirty-six exercises rewarded by the system.
Although the name of this Kung Fu is not good, the effect is beyond Zhu Biao's expectation.
Its effect is similar to hard skills such as the Golden Bell Shield and the Iron Cloth Shirt, which can exponentially enhance one's own defense and strength. Zhu Biao has been practicing for five months now, and even if he doesn't use any force, he will be cut with swords and guns.
The skin can no longer be broken.
But the advantage of this skill compared to iron cloth shirts and the like is that it is completely invisible from the outside.
At this moment, Zhu Biao still looks like a handsome young man. Except for having a bit more heroic spirit due to martial arts training, he is not much different from when he first traveled through time a year ago.
"Go on!" Zhu Biao ordered without stopping.
The little eunuch holding the tea next to him had a bright smile on his face, and continued: "The third one is Duan Yong, the master of the armored sect. This one is amazing. He is known as having a bronze head and iron arms, and is invulnerable to weapons and bullets."
"The fourth one is the abbot of Shaolin Temple, his name is Kong Zhi."
"Isn't there a saying that the world's martial arts comes from Shaolin?"
"Why is Shaolin Abbot ranked fourth?" Zhu Biao finally stopped.
The maid waiting on the side quickly brought the prepared towel to Zhu Biao.
Seeing the Crown Prince's looming abdominal muscles, the little palace maid's face turned red for no reason.
Zhu Biao didn't care. He wiped his sweat and returned to the shade to sit down.
Eunuch Sun Xiaobao brought the already cold herbal tea to Zhu Biao just in time and was about to explain.
A chuckle suddenly sounded from behind.
"Kong Zhi, this old bald donkey, can bear it. Moreover, he once offended us when he was young. He is afraid that he will be too popular and we will destroy his Shaolin Temple!"
"Father, why are you here!" Zhu Biao turned his head and asked in surprise when he saw it was Zhu Yuanzhang.
Two months have passed since the system task was sent to Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang has been going crazy with work in the past two months. He really didn't expect that Lao Zhu would take the initiative to come to the Prince's Mansion to find him.
When the guards, eunuchs, and maids standing around saw it was Zhu Yuanzhang, they all knelt down quietly and buried their heads deeply in the ground, not daring to go any further.
"Let's come to see you and give you some gadgets by the way!" Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand as he spoke, and Mao Xiang suddenly appeared behind him like a ghost and respectfully placed four things in front of Zhu Biao.
"Commander Mao has advanced to become a master of Huajin?" Zhu Biao did not look at those things, but kept staring at Mao Xiang. When he put down the things, he suddenly asked.
Mao Xiang's mind moved, and he said with a smile on his face: "His Highness indeed has a pair of piercing eyes. It was all thanks to the cultivation of the Emperor. He was lucky enough to break through his humble position half a month ago."
"It has been two months since the spiritual energy recovery began. Has its power begun to be revealed?" Zhu Biao thought to himself.
"Son, let's not talk about him anymore!"
"Look at these good things we have brought for you!" Zhu Yuanzhang pointed to the table in front of Zhu Biao with excitement on his face. At this moment, he was not like an emperor, but more like an old father showing off himself in front of his son.
"This is called a pocket watch. It can be used to tell the time."
"This is called a telescope. You can't say you can see everything thousands of miles away with it, but you can still see ten or twenty miles away."
"And this, knowing that you are successful in martial arts, this is an ancient sword that we specially searched for across the country, a black gold sword with dragon patterns. Legend has it that this sword was made of meteorites from outer space. It was Qin Shihuang's sword, cutting iron like clay.
, blow your hair and make a decision."
Zhu Biao was finally attracted. He took the sword in his hand and waved it casually twice.
Very convenient.
The sword light flashed, and Zhu Biao slashed at the stone table next to him, and a corner of the stone table was instantly cut off.
"What a sword!" Zhu Biao put away his sword with excitement on his face.
“There are better ones!”
Zhu Yuanzhang opened the last box with a mysterious look on his face, and what was revealed surprised Zhu Biao.
There was actually a gun inside.
The workmanship is very exquisite, and there are two boxes of lead bullets next to it.
"Son, let me make it clear to you first. This thing is so powerful that even a master of Huajin will be killed or injured if he takes one shot from it. I gave this to you, but you have to be careful when using it."
As Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, he skillfully filled the powder, took aim, lit the match, and then fired a shot at an archery target two feet away.
"Bang!" A gunshot rang out, and the archery target on the opposite side was smashed to pieces.
Although this gun is a handgun, its power is not small at all.
"Good thing!" Although Zhu Biao doesn't understand guns, he can conclude that this gun should be the highest level gun in the late Ming Dynasty. I am afraid that this is the only gun that can be made in Europe at the same time.
Seeing Zhu Biao lovingly playing with the gun, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but show a hint of relief.
It seems that under his guidance, his son will finally change from being a civilized person to becoming more and more martial.
This is a good thing for Ming Dynasty, especially for Ming Dynasty which has now recovered its spiritual energy.
After reading the history of the Ming Dynasty for 276 years, he has deeply realized a problem.
We should not be overly superstitious about the so-called Wen emperors who governed the country. The entire Ming Dynasty went through sixteen emperors, and it was a few Wen emperors who had a good reputation in history that the system really began to decline.
For example, Emperor Hongzhi was billed as the so-called Hongzhi ZTE in history, but after reading the records, Zhu Yuanzhang discovered that many of the policies he formulated began to be corrupted during the Hongzhi Dynasty.
For example, the method of exchanging grain for salt at the border gate.
It was abolished during the Hongzhi Dynasty, and in a sense this directly led to the erosion of the Nine-Border Arms, and the country was continuously bled to death.
In addition, there were several Ming emperors who died in mysterious circumstances, such as Zhu Houzhao, Emperor Wuzong of Ming Dynasty, and Zhu Youxiao, Emperor Xizong of Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Yuanzhang had reason to believe that his descendants were probably deliberately murdered.
If they could achieve a certain level of cultivation, not to mention reaching the realm of Huajin Grandmaster, as long as they could reach the level of Rongjin cultivation like themselves, then the history of the Ming Dynasty would probably be rewritten.
