Chapter 31 Proud Soldiers
Zhu Biao knocked on the door twice, and Zhu Yuanzhang's voice came from inside the house, "Come in!" ”
After Zhu Biao came in, he knelt down in front of Zhu Yuanzhang's desk and said, "Father, my son is back from worshipping his ancestors!" ”
Zhu Yuanzhang walked up to Zhu Biao and pulled him up, "Okay, Biao'er has worked hard!" How was it along the way, and what did you see?
Zhu Biao stood up and returned, "My son saw along the way, the country is ruined, and the people are not living. ”
Zhu Yuanzhang returned to his desk, "When you see this, you didn't go out in vain, read the books and newspapers in the palace, you can't figure out what the people are like to make a living." ”
"How do you get along with your hometown fathers?"
Zhu Biao didn't believe that Lao Zhu didn't know what he was doing all the way, but he still had to reply honestly!
slowly told about everything he did when he worshiped his ancestors, and conveyed their admiration for Zhu Yuanzhang for his hometown fathers.
Zhu Yuanzhang reviewed the paperwork, and after a while, he asked, "What do you think of Lan Yu?" ”
Zhu Biao didn't answer immediately, thinking about how to answer in his mind, it was the best choice, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the book and didn't urge.
"My son thinks that Lan Yu is a little arrogant!"
Zhu Yuanzhang said, "I'm not afraid that he is arrogant, I'm afraid that he has no ability, Biao'er, people with ability will inevitably have a little temper, this is nothing!"
Zhu Biao understood when he heard it, and nodded silently yes.
After waiting so honestly for a while, Zhu Yuanzhang stood up and stretched after dealing with government affairs, "Biao'er, you go out for a walk with your father, we have been busy all morning, and my waist is sore." ”
Zhu Biao obediently stepped forward to help, and after the father and son walked out of the study, Zhu Yuanzhang took his son's hand and walked around, and some maids followed from afar.
Zhu Yuanzhang took Zhu Biao to the high platform and looked below, "Biao'er, all the civil ministers and military generals are persuading us to hurry up and become the emperor!" I don't know, I thought they were going to be emperors!
Zhu Biao looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, who had a calm face, but constantly exuded a terrifying aura, and thought in his heart that it was no wonder that Zhu Biao died early!
This is not the emperor yet, Lao Zhu's prestige is better than day by day, even if he knows that Zhu Yuanzhang will never hurt his son, but he is still inevitably frightened.
Zhu Biao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Your destiny is here, and now most of the world is already under your control." Uncle Xu has also started the Northern Expedition, and Yuan Ting's will to resist has long collapsed, so there will be good news in the near future! ”
Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang didn't speak, Zhu Biao continued, "The generals have been fighting for many years, and now they are looking forward to your founding of the country, and they are also enjoying wealth and nobility, and it is not incomprehensible to human nature!" ”
Zhu Yuanzhang patted his son's shoulder and said, "Yes, Biao'er has grown up, but have you thought about how to confer a knighthood?" ”
Zhu Biao hurriedly handed it over, "This is not something that a son should consider, his son is young, and even the generals are a little unrecognizable, how can I know the merits and demerits of so many of them!" ”
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said, "We have a record of their merits and deeds, but we will award them according to their merits, do you think they will be satisfied?" ”
Zhu Biao thought for a while and said, "I guess I won't be satisfied, where is the time for people to be satisfied!" ”
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled, "Okay, Song Lian taught us a good son!" ”
"Biao'er is right, they will not be satisfied! They only remember how much credit they have made, but they never remember the mistakes they have made! Now my father is not in a hurry to open the country, because he is afraid that they will make trouble and disrupt the great cause of the Northern Expedition! ”
"But seeing my father so sad, I don't think I can drag it out?"
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and sighed: "There are a lot of troublemakers!" And they are all those people in Huaixi! It's all old brothers who were born and died with me, and I'm embarrassed to kill them all like this! ”
Zhu Biao almost laughed, you dare to love you just because you were embarrassed not to kill them.
"In this case, my father might as well be the emperor of Kaiyuan first, canonize the nobles, and say to the outside world that he will wait for Uncle Xu and Chang Shuai to come back and canonize them in unity!"
Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head: "If Yuan Ting relies on natural danger to stick to the capital, then I am afraid that it will not be able to be attacked in two or three years, this matter can drag on for a few months, but it is impossible to drag on for a year, we can't be the emperor ourselves but not reward the soldiers for a few years!" ”
Zhu Biao can't say that Yuan Ting has long lost his fighting spirit, and he will give up Dadu and flee in July next year.
Zhu Biao asked, "What does my father think?" ”
Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while: "Then Kaiyuan will be the emperor!" We give them what they want, if they don't accept and dare to make trouble, then don't blame us for being ruthless! ”
Zhu Biao was worried about those people, but there was no way, as I said before, these soldiers have been fighting for many years, and now they have become proud soldiers, and even Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't pay much attention to them!
"Opening and closing your mouth is how they are, and after drinking, they claim that if there were no them, there would be no Emperor Zhu!
According to their meaning, don't say that they are just princes, and they should be crowned kings.
Do these people have merit? Yes, these people are all veterans who crawled out of the sea of corpses and blood all the way, how can they not have meritorious deeds!
But they're not wrong? Are they all heroes? On the contrary, they are full of faults, not to mention heroes, each of them has dozens or hundreds of innocent souls in their hands!
Their moral level, even Zhu Biao has heard of it, they are all things that forget their righteousness, and robbing people's daughters is trivial, and they often connive at their subordinates to kill good people and take risks!
Either it is to kill innocent travelers and merchants, seize money, and then cut off the head as a spy of the Yuan Court.
Either the troops with poor military discipline slaughtered the people and women when they passed through the villages on the march, burned the villages, cut off the heads of the people, cut off their hair, and pretended to be the soldiers of the Yuan Court!
This era is like this, such things are not uncommon in troubled times, and Zhu Yuanzhang has killed I don't know how many such generals.
But there are always some people who don't look at their character well, but there are a lot of brothers, they hold a group, even Zhu Yuanzhang is not good to kill them, they can only let them make meritorious contributions!
Now some of the Northern Expedition has gone, and some have stayed here waiting for the founding of the country!
It is also they who are persuading every day to hold the founding ceremony tomorrow. Wenchen wants face in the end, his appearance is too ugly and ungraceful, and no one has been so anxious.
