Chapter 3 Third brother, take me.

Zhu Yuanzhang took out the map and waved it in front of Xu Tiande.

Zhu Qi looked at the map according to the modern mindset. There was nothing special about the mountains, rivers, cities and passes.

In the early Ming Dynasty, the map drawing was still very incomplete, but military maps already knew what equal-scale drawing was, and even used simple flat sand tables.

Therefore, Zhu Qi's map is extremely precious in the eyes of generals who understand military affairs.

Xu Da didn't know that this map was written by Zhu Yuanzhang's son Zhu Qizhi, but looking at Zhu Yuanzhang's expression, he almost said the words "Hurry up and praise" on his face.

Who is Xu Da? In the entire Hongwu dynasty, there were only a few people who could have a good ending. As for the unofficial history, "burn geese to death", it is unofficial history after all. If Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to kill Xu Da, he still needed to burn geese? Look at Lan Yu, how did Li Shanchang die clearly.

Zhu Yuanzhang's name as "butcher" in the literati's mouth, did not get any falsehood.

Without saying a word, Xu Da immediately began to praise, such as "This boy is so terrifying", "The talent of the world is so strong", "I wish I could meet him soon, and Wang Baobao would just put a bid to sell his first place" and so on.

In short, this "big talent" who drew a map was born early, and the Dayuan period was destroyed a hundred years ago.

After some bragging, Xu Da said the finishing touch:

"Your Majesty, who is this person?"

Zhu Yuanzhang's nostrils were already facing the sky at this time, his face full of smiles, and said:

"It's my third son, King Liao Zhu Qi!"

"It turned out to be His Highness, the King of Liao! It is really worthy of His Majesty. The dragon gives birth to dragons and phoenixes gives birth to dragons. Only His Majesty can produce such a craftable material!"

Xu Da looked surprised, then turned to admiration, and actually said in his heart, "It's true."

But aside from Xu Da's flattery, this map is indeed good. Just by relying on his ability to recognize maps, the King of Liao is already a promising king in Xu Da's heart.

Zhu Yuanzhang called Xu Da, on the one hand, boasting about his son, Zhu Qi, the King of Liao, and on the other hand, he was naturally discussing the grassland war. After all, the Northern Yuan was still eyeing the desert grasslands and thinking about returning to the Central Plains at any time.

In addition, the failure of the second Northern Expedition, the Northern Yuan Dynasty would probably make some moves, so I have to be careful.

By the way, it’s time for the kings of Sai to exercise.

……………………

Zhu Qi led his younger brother Zhu Di to roll and crawl out of the imperial study room, running until he could no longer see the wall of the imperial study room, and then he slowed down.

Zhu Di covered his butt and screamed, and Zhu Qi was angry and laughing.

I was so angry that I told Zhu Di that I would not confess myself even if I beat him to death. I never expected that Zhu Di was so backboneless in front of Zhu Yuanzhang. Not only did the comic book matters immediately emerge, but even the fact that his illness was completely cured was also told directly.

What I laughed at was the future Emperor Yongle, and I was beaten and screamed all day.

Zhu Di also knew in his heart that he was not very kind to implicate his brother Zhu Qi, and said apologetically:

"Third brother, I really can't blame me. You also know that my dad is not ruthless in beating us. If I grit my teeth and don't say it out, I'm afraid I can really beat me to death!"

Seeing Zhu Di's exaggeration, Zhu Qi waved his hand:

"Okay, OK, my father finally didn't pursue it, but you have to remember my love."

"It must be certain."

Zhu Di grinned in pain, while squeezing at Zhu Qi, saying:

"But third brother, your first-hand map is really good. I haven't noticed it before reading comics. When we were talking about martial arts, we didn't learn to draw maps."

The so-called martial arts teaching means martial arts and military education.

As Zhu Yuanzhang's son, he had to be both civil and military. In addition to reading books of sages, he had to be proficient in everything. Zhu Di also learned military tactics. Although he had never been to the battlefield and had no practical experience, he also knew the importance of maps to marching and fighting.

When Zhu Di said this, Zhu Qi was stunned at first, and then slapped his forehead. Oh no, Zhu Yuanzhang mistakenly thought that he had a general, right?

I was also thinking about finding an opportunity to change my fiefdom and enjoy the blessings of Jiangnan! What if Zhu Yuanzhang thought I had a general and rushed me to Liaodong and then the vassal states? That would be dead!

Zhu Qi was a little panicked and quickly explained to Zhu Di:

"It's just a map, which is far from the map used for marching and fighting."

"I feel that the third brother draws better than the maps I have seen."

Zhu Di sincerely praised him, and Zhu Qi felt even more panicked and quickly changed the topic:

"I won't say this anymore, I'll go back first if I have nothing to do."

Zhu Qi was about to leave, but Zhu Di hurriedly approached and whispered:

"San brother, in the second book of "Mingshanhe", there is actually a passage you drew wrong."

Zhu Qi was stunned and asked:

"What's wrong?"

Zhu Di looked back at the eunuchs and palace maids behind him who were far away, and then said:

"Then the part that Guo Tianxu listened to the song in the brothel was not very correct."

Zhu Qi's eyes widened and his face was full of question marks. Zhu Di continued:

"This time Chun Pavilion is too explicit. How could the name of the raft opened by the Jiaofangsi give it this name? This is the first one. On the building of the Huichun Pavilion, you painted, there are a group of little ladies, and they are wearing handkerchiefs. In fact, there are not so many young ladies in the real raft, posing with handkerchiefs. This is the second one."

It seemed that I felt that I was talking a little too much, Zhu Di added:

"San brother, don't look at me like this. I have never been to the tram. I just took a look when I passed by Xiaoxiang Pavilion. Actually, I heard that the place is quite elegant."

Zhu Qi looked at Zhu Di from top to bottom and asked seriously:

"Honestly, have you been to the tramp?"

Zhu Di said with a righteous and stern face:

"How could it be? If my father knew about it, I would not break my legs?"

Indeed, Zhu Yuanzhang had something to do.

Besides, Zhu Di is only fourteen years old and has been to the tramp for such a young age. He has never seen a sign in his two lives, which is a bit too much.

Zhu Qi was pure in his heart and had no interest in the raft. He looked down on such a dirty place from the bottom of his heart.

But when I think of the broth he drew, it was actually different from the actual situation. As a responsible cartoonist, I couldn't help but feel a little guilty, which is irresponsible to readers.

After thinking about it, Zhu Qi frowned and said to Zhu Di:

"Fourth brother, brother, I think what you said seems to make some sense. I really draw the plot of Guo Tianxu on the brothel based on my imagination. The things drawn are not very rigorous and not realistic enough."

Zhu Di nodded:

“Yes.”

Zhu Qi continued:

"I thought, push all that part down and repaint, but if I don't see it with my own eyes, I'm afraid I won't be able to draw that sense of reality, so don't misunderstand, I don't want to go to the brothel, but to go to collect folk songs. Do you understand folk songs? So is the Xiaoxiang Pavilion you just mentioned formal? Is it high-end? Is it far from the Forbidden City?"

Zhu Di hurriedly said:

"The Jiaofangsi is open, it must be formal. I heard that it is the most important tramp in Yingtian Mansion. It is not far from the Forbidden City. It will be not far from Xihuamen when you go out."

After listening to Zhu Di's words, Zhu Qi nodded and said:

"Then don't tell others about this. If your father asks about it, he will say that I will go to talk to you about martial arts. When I return from the field, I will guarantee that I will draw the third chapter for you."

Zhu Qi raised his leg and was about to leave, but he felt his arm being pulled. When he turned around, he saw Zhu Di's eyes were bright and he said solemnly:

"San brother, take me."
Chapter completed!
