"Yes, Taishi, Badu is right, please make a decision as soon as possible."

"Please make a decision as soon as possible."

The Mongolian generals present shouted at Mahamu one by one. Seeing this scene, Mahamu is also entangled left and right in his heart, and what he said on both sides makes sense, but if the current situation does not agree to the plea of the generals, I am afraid that they will be separated from themselves from now on, killing their parents, and cutting off people and property will always be the most hated, seeing that his subordinates are all thinking of doing business with the Ming Dynasty and making a fortune, if he does not agree, although it will not be a betrayal of relatives, but the prestige in the hearts of the brothers will definitely be greatly reduced, as for whether they will be the traitors of the Ming Dynasty, it will be a matter of the future. As long as you are on guard, it shouldn't be a big problem, and finally raised her eyes to look at her wife, sighed a little helplessly, and said: "Brothers are right, this Taishi also wants to exchange tribute with the Ming Dynasty and earn money." The last sentence is what he said in his heart, putting aside the money in front of him and not making it, always thinking about what will happen in the future, how can he become a big thing if he is so timid?

"Taishi......" Xiao'er Zhijin was taken aback when she heard Ma Hamu's decision, she had already felt the risk of doing so, and her heart jumped twice, and said, "Please think twice, Taishi." ”

Ma Hamu waved his hand, pursed his lips, and then said in an undeniable tone: "Don't say it, concubine, this matter is settled." Besides, my Wara is far away in the desert, and the infantry of the Ming Dynasty will not be able to pass. Qin Emperor Han Wu is such a powerful person, don't they also have the Yongqing Desert? Didn't the battle of Lingbei that he fought back then also end in a fiasco? ”

This is also the truth, seeing that Ma Hamu's attitude is so resolute, he no longer fights anything, and sits on the chair with a bad face and no longer speaks.

According to the normal situation, what Ma Hamu said is not wrong, even if there is a conflict in the future, Zhu Ao has nothing to do with him, even if his soldiers are very prosperous at the beginning, he only needs to hide for a while, and when the food and grass of the Ming army are not continued, they will have to return to the court.

However, what they didn't know was that the secret arsenal of the Su State in the hinterland of the Tianshan Mountains was working overtime to develop canned food, and the tin ore had been found, and samples of tinplate had been made, and it was no longer a distant dream from the advent of canned food.

It won't be long before this weapon will surprise them.

That night, the palace of King Su in Dunhuang was very lively, and everyone was busy, because the queen was about to give birth.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry. Bring in the hot water. "Go, hurry up." "If something happens to the queen, you won't be able to eat and walk around."

The midwife was giving birth to the queen while she was screaming loudly in a hurry.

Outside the queen's bedroom, Zhu Ao paced back and forth, he was the king of a country, but the funny thing was that when his relatives needed him the most, he couldn't help at all.

"Lord, don't be too anxious, the queen has her own nature, and she will be fine."

"Yes, Lord Wang, the mother and son will be safe."

His three concubines also came, if they didn't come to see it at this time, it would be too ignorant, even if the queen didn't remember it, when she saw her in the future, she felt guilty in her heart, and her face was dull.

At this time, a loud cry sounded in the night sky.

"Born, born. It's the little prince. Mother and child are safe. Tingwei, who had been waiting in the queen's room, ran out at the first time and chirped like a magpie to report the good news.

"Huh." Zhu Ao raised his head and let out a long sigh of relief to the sky, a heart finally fell, to be honest, he didn't really care about the gender of the child from the later generations, anyway, it was his own blood and bones, and it was proof that he had lived in this world.

Tingwei ran over like a cheerful bird, knelt down in front of Zhu Ao with a "plop", and said happily: "Congratulations to the king on winning the dragon son." ”

The other three concubines also reacted, and knelt down in front of Zhu Ao like Tingwei, and said happily: "Congratulations to the princess, congratulations to the queen's sister." ”

Zhu Ao's mood at this time is extremely excited, the feeling of being a father for the first time is always inexplicably unforgettable, since then, in this vast universe, there is such a little guy flowing with the blood of a widow, this feeling, it is so wonderful that it can not be expressed in words, he began to understand why Zhu Yuanzhang spoiled Zhu Biao so much, because only Zhu Biao in this world has brought him this feeling, no matter how capable you are, other people have never let him experience this pleasure. Therefore, the position of the crown prince can only belong to Zhu Biao and his descendants, and other people don't even think about it.

"Can the widow go in and have a look?" After a long time, Zhu Ao came back to his senses and asked a group of people kneeling beside him with a smile.

Now he asked about everyone's difficulties, these women have no experience in childbirth, and they don't know if it is appropriate for the prince to go in at this time, and finally listened to Wei straighten her knees, looked at Zhu Ao and said, "Otherwise, the concubine will go in and ask." ”

Zhu Ao nodded thoughtfully, waved his hand, and said, "Go quickly." "Yes." Tingwei saluted like Zhu Ao again, then stood up, ran into the delivery room of Queen Sun Yunqi like a little rabbit, and after getting a positive answer, she came out and ran to Zhu Ao, and said with a smile: "The midwife said yes, the prince please." ”

Zhu Ao was very happy, and said to Tingwei very anxiously: "You follow the widow in, and the others are waiting outside the door, so as not to affect the queen's rest." Then, he strode into the delivery room of Queen Sun Yunqi.

A midwife had already greeted her, hugged the little prince who had had the umbilical cord cut, bowed to Zhu Ao, and said, "Congratulations to the king, congratulations to the king, the mother and child are safe." Then, he handed the little prince in his hand to Zhu Ao.

Zhu Ao looked at his fleshy little face, and loved it very much, this is his offspring, it is his bloodline, and he picked up the little doll very unnaturally, and the little doll squinted between them, and the little mouth moved, as if looking for food.

"Your Majesty, the little prince seems to be a little hungry, so hurry up and take him to the queen to nurse him." The midwife reminded with a grin.

"Oh, yes. He didn't seem to have eaten yet. Zhu Ao smiled lovingly, and then slowly hugged the little doll to the side of Queen Sun Yunqi, gently put it in her arms, stroked Sun Yunqi's hair that had been wet with sweat, and said with a doting smile: "The queen has worked hard, this is our child." ”

Sun Yunqi turned sideways, put the little doll in his arms, and fed him a few mouthfuls of milk with the help of the nurse, she is the queen, and the work of feeding in the future must be handed over to the nurse, but the child's first mouthful of milk must be fed by her own mother, after the posture is adjusted, she said very weakly: "This is the king's blessing, it is the honor of the concubine to give birth to an heir for the king." And ask the king to give his son a name. ”

Zhu Ao smiled slightly, it is his father's responsibility to name his son, and after taking it, he must report to the Zongren Mansion to enter the jade butterfly, so that he can truly become a member of the royal family, fortunately, this name has been in history, and he doesn't need to bother to find some rare words to set the naming methods prescribed by Lao Zhu, pretending to be a little groaning, and then said: "My son is called Ganyan." "The word "赡" is the genealogical name stipulated by Lao Zhu, and no one is allowed to change it." "Flame" is the name according to the five elements, because wood makes fire, Zhu Ao is wood, and the son he gave birth to is fire.

It should be said that the name of the vassal king of the Ming Dynasty is the better the forward, and later, there are more and more children of the royal family, and there are only those few words that hang gold, wood, water, fire and earth, which makes the person responsible for naming the prince very headache, and can only find some rare words to fill the number, and the rare words are all found, so they simply make words directly, and a large number of Cangjie were born.

"Thank you for the king's name, and our son will be called Flame Wing." Sun Yunqi hugged the little doll and smiled slightly, all kinds of pampering appeared on her face, and her mother's love was about to overflow.

Zhu Ao did not stay in the queen's palace for long, the queen had just given birth and needed to rest, and after sitting here for a while, he got up and left.

The name of the little doll has been sent to the Zongren Mansion, and according to the regulations of the Ming Dynasty, he will definitely be made the crown prince, but he will not wait until he is ten years old.

In fact, Zhu Ao also admires this primogeniture inheritance system, it is the best way to solve sibling disputes, no matter how capable you are, as long as you are not a son-in-law, don't fight the throne, unless there is no son-in-law, and you are the longest among the concubines.

In the final analysis, this is still a method of ranking seniority, although this method seems to be very corrupt and wrong in the eyes of some people, and it suppresses many talented concubines, including geniuses such as Zhu Di and Li Shimin.

However, I hope that readers can understand that there is something far more important in this world than genius, and that is stability. Only with stability, ordinary people like you and me can live and work in peace and contentment, live a small life leisurely, and you can open the starting point to see me after you get off work, and I can have the time to write to you after work. If there is a war, who can take care of this? Although the troubled times produce heroes, although they are wonderful, they can't accommodate a desk.

You can count on your fingers, how many heroes have appeared in various troubled times since ancient times, I believe everyone can count them, and how many people have died, I believe you can't count them.

In troubled times, the vast majority of people are actually cannon fodder, especially ordinary people like you and me, so we must cherish peace and live a good life.

Although this method of arranging seniority will bury some geniuses, it will bring stability to our public, and this is enough, an emperor who is not a particularly genius will have at most his political achievements are not particularly significant, and he will have a few harems and live a mediocre life, and there are no records left in the history books. What should the people do or what they should do, the land that should be planted must be planted, and the grain that should be paid should not be less, and everyone makes do with it.

And if you let a few geniuses fight for the emperor, it will be a big trouble, it is possible to make a pot of porridge in the Central Plains, "white bones are exposed in the wild, there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles" The scene is not Cao Cao's deliberate exaggeration, you don't see the battle of Jingjing fought for four years, there is no one in Hebei, and after Zhu Di came up, he had to immigrate from Shanxi to enrich this area.

I believe that for the broad masses of Hebei people who were killed in the Battle of Jingjing, they would rather not have the later Seven Voyages to the West, the later Five Expeditions to Mongolia, the later "Yongle Grand Canon", the later Wanguo Dynasty, and the later glorious and prosperous era.

They would rather live a mediocre life under the rule of the weak Zhu Yunwen, working at sunrise and resting at sunset, a cow on thirty acres of land, and a hot kang head for wives and children. Looking at the curling smoke coming out of the chimney at home, waiting for his wife to call him home for dinner.

Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang's succession system of "having a descendant, no descendant, and a brother ending with a brother" is the most perfect system in history, although it does not dare to guarantee that the generations will produce talents, but it can ensure that every time the imperial power is handed over, it can be smoothly transitioned, so that the people of the Ming Dynasty can enjoy the prosperity forever.

The weather is getting colder, Concubine Shu's belly is getting bigger and bigger, and this time is about to give birth, just when everyone is looking forward to it, a message pulls out Zhu Ao in the joy after getting a child - Li Jinglong is coming. His identity is Qincha.

This news is Zhu Ao set up a post station quickly reported to Zhu Ao, because the land west of the river is rich in horses, Zhu Ao's post station is also very rich, when the pawns of the post station pass the news, they are basically riding two horses, running tired of one horse for another, the speed is very fast, so Li Jinglong just crossed the Yellow River, Zhu Ao received the exact news.

Because Zhu Ao had bought the Jinyi guards in Su Guo before, and through them inquired about the purpose of Li Jinglong's visit to Su Guo this time, the purpose of passing on his own return to Beijing to talk about his family life, not to find trouble, so he breathed a sigh of relief, but he still didn't dare to slack off on the envoys of the imperial court.

After calculating the time when Li Jinglong came to Dunhuang, Zhu Ao took a group of civil and military ministers to wait outside the city early, he knew that although this Li Jinglong had a bad reputation in history, he had to deal with it well, because even if he was a fool, he also held a lot of resources in his hands, and Lao Zhu and Zhu Yunwen gave him the backstage, so even if Li Jinglong was a three-year-old child, he couldn't afford to provoke him.

There is a famous saying in "Han Feizi": "Therefore, if the ruler is on the high mountain, it is near the stream of thousands of people, and the material is not long, and the position is high." "It's really a wise saying, the real world is a materialist world, whoever has more resources can win, no one should brag about this, and no one should try to fool anyone.

If it weren't for the Battle of Jingjing, Zhu Yunwen made a very serious mistake, let alone Zhu Di, even if he put Zhu Yuanzhang in that position, he would not have been able to win. Of course, the biggest mistake he made was not to use Li Jinglong.

Seeing that Li Jinglong's frame was coming slowly from far and near, a smile appeared on Zhu Ao's face. Li Jinglong had met Zhu Ao, and after a glance from the car, he recognized Zhu Ao, and was immediately surprised, he originally thought that Zhu Ao would send an important person to meet him here, but what he never expected was that he actually came in person, and immediately urged the car to speed up.

When he walked not far from Zhu Ao, Li Jinglong stopped the car, immediately got out of the carriage, straightened his clothes, walked to Zhu Ao in three steps and two steps, and bowed his head and said: "Minister Li Jinglong greets His Royal Highness King Su, His Royal Highness is a thousand years old, a thousand years old." ”

According to Zhu Yuanzhang's regulations, the princes and ministers must kowtow and salute when they see the prince of the domain, otherwise they will be severely punished, and Zhu Ao is considered Li Jinglong's elder, so he bowed to him and was very calm, but since he ran out to meet Li Jinglong from afar, he just did it for a show, and he did it both horizontally and vertically, why not just make it look better, immediately stretched out his hand to help him up, and said with a smile: "Cao Guogong doesn't have to be polite, you and I are old acquaintances." ”

Li Jinglong stood up with Zhu Ao's support, arched his hand at Zhu Ao, and smiled very politely: "Thank you, Your Highness." I still remember the last time the minister and His Royal Highness met, the Gansu area was still very desolate, and the minister came all the way this time, but it was very rich here, I didn't expect that in just three years, His Royal Highness will build Su into a paradise no less than the land south of the Yangtze River, which is really eloquent. ”

This sycophant is very comfortable, who said that Li Jinglong was stupid? Doesn't that look clever? Zhu Ao smiled slightly, took Li Jinglong's hand, and said: "Cao Guogong has won the award, Cao Guogong has worked hard all the way, and the widow specially arranged a dust washing banquet for Cao Guogong, let's hurry up and enter the table." With that, he took Li Jinglong and walked into the city.

Li Jinglong hesitated for a moment, but still had the courage to say it, and said, "Your Highness, should the minister read His Majesty's will first?" ”

Zhu Ao smiled faintly and said very enthusiastically: "What's the urgency of the decree? Can the widow still run away? Cao Guogong has been in the dust all the way, and if he works without even eating, the widow is really unbearable. Besides, Cao Guogong doesn't want to try this exotic style? After that, he smiled evilly at Li Jinglong.

Li Jinglong is not a good bird, he has been pampered since he was a child, and he has naturally been to a lot of Fengyue places, but he has only played in the hinterland of the Central Plains, as soon as he heard about the exotic customs, his eyes were a little green, and he didn't care about Cao Guogong's noble status, and said with a little urgency: "That, since His Royal Highness is hospitable, if he is refusing, then he doesn't know how to raise it." Hahaha. ”

These laughter were quite silvery, causing the entourage behind the two to also laugh secretly, Zhu Ao saw that Li Jinglong agreed, stretched out one hand to the city and pointed to the city, said the word "please" by the way, and took his hand with the other hand and walked towards the city.

In order to entertain Li Jinglong, the Duke of Cao Guo, Zhu Ao specially prepared a rich banquet, and all the members of the Su Kingdom above the third grade participated.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Li Jinglong also drank a lot of wine, and the wine was sad, which aroused the gluttony in his heart, and he shamelessly leaned to Zhu Ao's side and asked: "Dare to ask Your Highness, where is the exotic customs?" ”

Zhu Ao smiled slightly, the dancing girl danced a lot of dances before, but all of them were Central Plains style dances, he just wanted to hang Li Jinglong's appetite, and by the way, see how deep his city is, this time, I found that this famous Cao Guogong is indeed not a person who has achieved great things, so he can't help being a little lonely, what else can he do?

Seeing that the heat was almost over, and Li Jinglong himself proposed it, Zhu Ao put down his golden cup and gave a look to Huai En, who was standing aside. All of this was discussed by them, and Huai En immediately understood, waved the dust whisk in his hand, and the previous few dancing girls immediately stopped what they were doing, bowed to Ying Ying in the direction where Zhu Ao was sitting, and then lowered his hand and retreated.

Subsequently, several women wearing modern sailor suits rushed in, causing Li Jinglong and his entourage to exclaim, they are also people who have been in the place for a long time, they are not pure children, and they have long seen women who come out to sell themselves, but it is the first time to see such a bold woman who dares to wear in public.

The officials of Su Guo are much calmer, because Su Wang's entertainment industry has long been opened, and as subordinates, they don't know how many times they have patronized, this is not called luxury and corruption, this is called giving face to the boss, so they are not surprised.

Zhu Ao is absolutely unwilling to take out his own private dance troupe to entertain Li Jinglong, Li Jinglong is a fart, others respect him Cao Guogong, but in Zhu Ao's eyes, he is just a slave who works for the Zhu family, besides, those five dancing girls were selected by Zhu Ao, and they are his favorite pets, how can they be cheaper than others.

These dancing girls who came in were all selected by Zhu Ao and Huai En from various venues, although they were not as good as his own private collection of dance troupes, but they were definitely the best, they were all the top names in each venue, and their appearance and dance were first-class, which was enough to deal with Li Jinglong, a pervert.

Li Jinglong is also the first time to see this scene, the following seven or eight character beauties are only wearing thin clothes, their arms and big white legs are exposed, and the skirt is too short, just like wrapping their little buttocks, a whole set of clothes, the curves of their bodies are outlined perfectly, it is really exotic, how can you see such a seductive cutie in the hinterland of the Central Plains? With a move in his throat, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, glanced at Zhu Ao, and there was a trace of gratitude in his eyes, but more of an expectation, looking forward to what fun these stunners in the world can bring to him?

Zhu Ao naturally knew what Li Jinglong was thinking, clapped his hands, and said with a smile: "Let's start, we must let Cao Guogong enjoy tonight." ”

"Yes. The slave and the maid obeyed. These dancers gave a salute, and then began a bewitching and sexy modern dance, these dances are all seen by Zhu Ao in the videos of later generations, remembering the essence and classic movements, and finding a special choreographer to re-choreograph, the effect is still very satisfying.

Because Li Jinglong's eyes are straight!

"Cao Guogong." Zhu Ao picked up his wine glass and wanted to have a drink with Li Jinglong, but he didn't expect Li Jinglong to ignore him at all, and his eyes were still staring straight at the sexy dance troupe below.
