Chapter 98 Conflict
Chapter 100 Conflict
Zhu Xiongying diligently made a pot of tea for Lao Zhu and said thoughtfully, "Grandpa, this is Xianglin tea from Lingyin Temple. It's such a good tea!"
Speaking of tea, Lao Zhu changed some of his tea-drinking habits after he became emperor. In the past, it was group tea, but Lao Zhu thought it was too troublesome and the cost of making group tea was too high, which was a burden on tea farmers. So now it is changed to loose tea.
, which is the brewing tea in the future.
Longjing was somewhat famous during the Northern Song Dynasty, but it has not yet become a high-end tribute tea. The so-called Dahongpao is even less famous, it is just Wuyi Mountain rock tea. It is said that Dahongpao is also related to Queen Ma.
But it doesn’t match up with the legendary story. In that story, there was no queen in the Ming Dynasty.
Lao Zhu took a sip of tea happily and said, "They say that if you show courtesy when you have nothing to do, you are either committing adultery or stealing. If you have something to do, just talk about it."
"That's what you said!" Zhu Xiongying was hurt and immediately complained, "My grandson just wants to be filial, but my grandfather actually said this. I left, lest my grandfather say that I was being attentive again!"
After saying this, Zhu Xiongying strolled towards the entrance of the palace. He had been looking forward to it, but it was a pity that Lao Zhu didn't call him to stop him.
This puts Zhu Xiongying in a dilemma, but Zhu Xiongying is such a tough person, he still takes the step of Wuying Palace.
Lao Zhu chuckled, he was not afraid that his grandson would be really sad. The child must have something to ask for, and you could tell it from his footsteps. If this trip doesn't work, he will still come to show his courtesy next time.
Zhu Xiongying, who strolled to the Wenhua Hall, helped organize the memorial. Zhu Biao just glanced at Zhu Xiongying and continued to work. His son was so attentive, so there must be something going on and he didn't need to pay too much attention.
What's more, Zhu Biao didn't feel taboo at all when his son read the memorial more often, but thought it was a good thing.
Zhu Xiongying looked at the memorial and said, "Dad, I'm thinking about transferring the general to his subordinates. I've been thinking about it for a long time. I should still be in charge of the affairs of the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion."
Zhu Biao raised his head and looked at Zhu Xiongying, and said with a smile, "Are you trying to share your worries for me?"
"We are all a family, there is no need to see anyone outside." Zhu Xiongying said carelessly, "Dad, after thinking about it, I still feel that you are too busy now. My son has grown up now, and it is time to share the burden for his grandfather and father.
."
"You can't take control of the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army now." Zhu Biao said, "First get your Shenji Camp ready, and then I will give you the Jingwei. When the time comes, you can just take the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army."
. If the Wu Xun is cleared out in two years, you can take charge of the Fifth Army Commander's Mansion again."
Zhu Biao is really not worried about his son taking over military power, nor is he taboo about it.
When Zhu Xiongying heard this, he immediately became anxious, "Dad, I just want to fight against Beiyuan. Dad, I know that the imperial court is now recruiting troops, horses, food and grass, and they are busy mobilizing troops and generals."
Zhu Biao put down the brush in his hand and looked at Zhu Xiongying with a smile, "Did you see it yourself, or did someone tell you?"
"I can see it myself." Zhu Xiongying said seriously, "Dad, I'm fourteen, and I've made some progress in the past few years. You don't want to guard me. I can just read the memorials if I want to. If I watch them again
If something doesn’t come out, that would be weird.”
Zhu Biao said seriously, "You said you are only fourteen. If it is really eighteen or twenty, I will let you go to fight Beiyuan. If this is not possible, you will definitely not be able to go north."
"Dad, I happen to be able to patrol the border." Zhu Xiongying said hurriedly, "Fourteen is not too young, and I am different from ordinary children! If it weren't for Da Bei Yuan this time, I wouldn't be able to fight for a while.
It’s a battle.”
Zhu Biao was a little unhappy and said, "Fight, fight! You are the foundation of the country, how can you focus on fighting!"
"Dad, I want to fight, but why don't I think about the future?" Zhu Xiongying was also anxious and said extremely seriously, "Dad, it goes without saying about my origin. It is said that all the nobles in Huaixi are looking towards me. But I also know it.
, many people may not be too sure of me. Let’s start to rectify Wu Xun, and some people will be anxious!”
Zhu Biao was very confident, and his tone was calm but oppressive, "So what if those people are anxious, can they rebel? With your background, they won't dare to cause trouble!"
"What about my uncles?" Zhu Xiongying said seriously, "My grandfather created vassal kings. I don't believe that my father is unhappy!"
Zhu Biao was stunned for a moment and became furious, "What are you talking about?!"
Looking into Zhu Biao's eyes, Zhu Xiongying did not give in, "Dad, I know that he protects his uncles, and they don't dare to quarrel with him. But when those uncles meet me and my descendants in the future, will they be convinced?
The uncles know the general idea, but as for the uncles’ descendants, they will be obedient and obedient!”
Zhu Biao was very angry and shouted angrily, "All your uncles are kings of fortresses. They can't control the dangerous passes and control the fortress. They are supported by Yuanrong generals. They have the power to control orders and have the strength to support the army. They clear the desert and build tents facing each other. You know
What does this mean? Most of your uncles are in bitter cold places, guarding the imperial court!"
In fact, this is a governance system that combines the Han and Tang prefectures and counties with the Yuan Dynasty's feudal system, that is, setting up government offices to manage the people and enfeoffing vassal kings to protect the imperial court.
This is different from the vassal kings in the early Western Han Dynasty, because King Sai actually had no administrative power and his military strength was relatively limited.
But there are also some problems here. For example, there are military powers that look like the three guards of the lord. During war, local troops can be mobilized and officials of the royal palace can be appointed. Normally, there are only a few thousand to tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, but with continuous development,
It’s hard to say next time.
It is said that the vassal king had few soldiers and horses, but when Zhu Di rebelled in history, he 'borrowed' tens of thousands of soldiers and horses from Ning Wang Zhu Quan. At that time, Zhu Quan had 80,000 armored soldiers, 6,000 chariots, and three Duoyan cavalry guards.
All are brave and good at fighting.
Such a vassal king occupying a fortress must have made the emperor a little worried.
Zhu Quan may not dare to say anything in front of Zhu Biao and Zhu Xiongying, but Zhu Quan's descendants may not have other ideas.
Zhu Xiongying continued, "Dad, I know that now brothers and sisters are respectful to each other. But what about in the future? If the Seven Kings Rebellion really breaks out, it will be terrible! I don't want to see the Ming Dynasty clan killing each other!"

Zhu Biao grabbed the tea cup and slammed it on the ground, "Get out, get out of here!"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Xiongying couldn't continue the conversation and could only walk towards Kunning Palace in despair.
What happened here in the Wenhua Palace could not be hidden, and Lao Zhu and Queen Ma knew about it in an instant. They were also nervous and worried. There was no reason. A few days ago, they were acting like a loving father and a filial son. Why did they suddenly have a quarrel?
Get up.
This is not an ordinary quarrel. If it is simply because of political differences, it is just an argument at best. If it is an ordinary quarrel, there is no need to worry. Such quarrels look more like family harmony.
As soon as she returned to Kunning Palace, Queen Ma quickly asked, "Xiongying, why did you have a quarrel with your father?"
"I'm not speculating." Zhu Xiongying sat down angrily and said, "He just wants to be a good big brother and doesn't consider my difficulties. He is a good big brother, and I also want to be a good big brother. What will happen in the future?
What will happen to my descendants in the future?!"
Empress Ma was not happy when she heard this and said quickly, "What nonsense are you talking about! Your descendants are not his descendants?"
"I'm tired, let's go back and rest." Zhu Xiongying started to be cold and violent, saying, "Wait until dinner time to call me, I don't want to talk."
After saying this, Zhu Xiongying ran back to his palace, kicked out the eunuchs and maids, and lay on the couch sulking.
As soon as he fell on the couch, Zhu Xiongying couldn't help but feel happy, "My father is really evil-hearted. If I don't cut off the feudal clan in the future, he will definitely do it too."
It is definitely necessary to reduce the vassal status. Even if the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty seem not as powerful as the vassal kings in the early Western Han Dynasty, it is obviously impossible to allow the vassal kings to develop unscrupulously. Or
There are a lot of restrictions.
It’s just that we obviously can’t learn from Zhu Yunwen in history. That kid’s method of cutting down the vassal vassal was really too bad.
Lao Zhu hurried to Kunning Palace and asked hurriedly, "Where is the hero?"
Queen Ma said angrily, "That child is very angry. He was angry with his father, and he was also angry with me! He went back to the house and fell asleep!"
"This bastard!" Lao Zhu was very unhappy and said angrily, "It's all you who spoiled him. How dare an ordinary grandson do this? How dare he show off his face when he is angry with his elders!"
Queen Ma glanced over, and Lao Zhu immediately knew that he had made a mistake. If his grandson was just obedient and obedient for the sake of face like ordinary children, Lao Zhu would be uncomfortable. He had long been used to his grandson not being too big in front of him.
No kid, that is the happiness of his family. He is not the Hongwu Emperor who is supreme in front of his family.
Lowering her voice, Empress Ma asked in a low voice, "How did Xiongying and the boss quarrel? They, father and son, have always had the same political views, so they quarreled now. How big a deal could it be?!"
Lao Zhu chuckled and said in a low voice, "They are acting for me. My son and grandson, how can I not know! Leave them two alone, my palms and backs are full of flesh. The family business I have inherited must be passed on to others."
If you give it to them, you can’t lose it to other children.”
Empress Ma seemed to understand a little bit and asked in a low voice, "Are you saying you don't like the feudal lord being outside?"
Lao Zhu nodded slightly and said, "Xiongying, I'm still a little anxious."
When Queen Ma heard this, she knew what to do, and she didn't know what to do about this matter.
To be honest, she doesn't like the feudal king's policy. But now, there seems to be no other way. So it won't be a big deal if the children are allowed to make trouble now.
There seemed to be a quarrel, but it didn't seem to be a big deal. People who should know will know, and people who shouldn't know will not know about it.
The most important thing is that even if there seems to be a fierce conflict between the crown prince and the crown prince, it does not affect the status of the two people.
