A few lotus pods were peeled out.

The lotus seeds are fragrant, exuding a faint fragrance, Zhu Xiongying is walking on the horse, while enjoying the maid Yuhe with green and white jade fingers and putting them into Zhu Xiongying's mouth.

Warm nephrite, full of lotus seeds.

Zhu Xiongying pursed his lips and sighed: "Hey, you can't blame the king ...... all."

The maid Yuhe who served beside her was in tears, and pursed her lips nervously: "Little master, but Yuhe didn't do a good job?" You can't kick me out of the palace. ”

"Yuhe, don't be nervous, if His Royal Highness King Lu comes to show off his handmaids, you will support me next to me, don't be afraid, I won't drive you away."

Zhu Xiongying grinned, withdrew a punch, slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, and stood up inch by inch.

"Call it a day!"

Gently clapped his palm, took the wolfberry water on the side and drank it, Zhu Xiongying suddenly remembered that he didn't know Yuhe's name, and couldn't help asking: "Yuhe, what's your surname?" ”

"The slave's surname is Liu, a Fujian family, and he entered the palace in the ninth year of Hongwu."

"Oh, it's not Xia......"

"People like your little mother, they should all be married, right? Are there still elders in the family? ”

Zhu Xiongying asked.

Yuhe pursed his lips and said softly: "The slave is an abandoned baby, who was picked up by the lustful merchants of the former Yuan to be a servant, and he was restored to Fujian by the official family, and he entered the palace with the noble women of the former Yuan. ”

"The slave doesn't know the family background, maybe it is the blessing of the fortune to serve the little master, the Bodhisattva pity me and didn't let me be taken away by the jackal, otherwise how can I have the life to serve the little master here."

Zhu Xiongying's face turned cold.

Up to now, Fujian, Jiangxi, and even Zhejiang, as well as many places in Shaanxi, Henan and other places in the north, still have the custom of abandoning babies, also known as "not lifting children......

If a baby girl is born, because she cannot feed her, she wraps it in sackcloth and throws it on the side of the road.

Let the jackals, tigers and leopards take them away, or be picked up.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang expressly forbade it, he also cultivated almshouses in various places, adopted lonely and widowed old people, abandoned babies, and still couldn't reach the whip, and some of the officials of the almshouses violated the yang and yin, and the government in order to reduce the custom of abandoning babies, but also united many monks and Taoists to build some abandoned baby towers......

This custom is not to mention the current Ming Dynasty, in the most economically developed Song Dynasty, it is also a common practice.

Zhu Xiongying rubbed his wrist and said in a deep voice: "I also said before that Yuhe is a descendant of Semu, it turned out that you were adopted by Semu merchants, but the good man who adopted you is still there?" ”

Yuhe nodded.

"In the future, if you have the opportunity to leave the palace, you can repay him if you can find him."

After finishing speaking, Zhu Xiongying stared at the various plants in the small courtyard, and secretly gritted his teeth and swore: "I, Zhu Xiongying, swear that in my lifetime, I will let the Ming Red Flag fly, where the baby and the child are raised, and the old and lonely will have a home!" ”

"If I, the Zhu Ming royal family, can't do this, then I'll let my tenth uncle Jin die and die!"

As if he was afraid that the oath he made would not work, Zhu Xiongying hesitated for a moment and raised his hand.

"There are gods three feet above the head, and the ghosts are different from the three feet on the ground, so it's better to be formal!"

Raising his hand to the sky, Zhu Xiongying swore seriously.

"I am willing to use my tenth uncle Zhu Tan's ten-year life span in exchange for ten years of prosperity for my Chinese people!"

"If you violate this oath, let my tenth uncle Jin die, and he will not die well!"

After finishing speaking, Zhu Xiongying exhaled a breath of turbid air and began to nervously observe the door of the small courtyard.

During this time, this tenth uncle Zhu Tan didn't know if there was a rumor in the court that he was going to go to the vassal or how, he came to Zhu Xiongying to show off more often.

I have to say that the old Zhu family is all talented.

Because of his own mistakes.

After Zhu Tan, the king of Lu, changed his interest from Jinshi Dan to engaging in various inventions and creations, he really made him come up with a lot of tricks.

He didn't know where he learned that Zhu Xiongying was very interested in transforming the fire gun.

So, he began to give Zhu Xiongying a science popularization on how to transform the fire gun.

In fact, in the early Ming Dynasty, the application of gunpowder guns and guns has been very extensive, and there are already three-eyed guns, four-eyed guns, and even a kind of "Divine Flame Crow" similar to the rocket artillery of later generations, that is, the original rocket.

In the previous life, in the battle of the fourth uncle Zhu Di and Emperor Jianwen, both sides used firearms extensively, and this kind of rocket played a huge role.

Then there are torpedoes, mines.

Thanks to Chen Youliang's former Han Dynasty, for the key development of water warfare and naval forces, the Ming army already had underwater mines such as "underwater mines", "dragon king cannons" and "mixed river dragons".

During this time, Zhu Tan didn't know what was wrong with his brain, and began to give Zhu Xiongying various operations in a different way.

From the more common ones like the crutches, to the five-eyed guns he drummed up.

This is not unusual, it was his tenth uncle who died, and he began to set his sights on gunpowder and projectiles, as well as Zhu Xiongying's own improved "bulletproof armor", he had to come to Zhu Xiongying every day, showing off his own modified fire guns, and showing off his own modified body armor.

The strongest gun, the strongest shield?

That's fine, the question is, Uncle Ten, don't experiment with living people......

Nowadays, the new cotton armor of the Ming Dynasty has large pieces of porcelain and iron as protection.

This was proposed by Zhu Xiongying.

I don't know which "people with a heart" spread the news that these inventions and creations were made by Zhu Xiongying to the foreign courts, and those civil officials and Confucian ministers in the court quarreled about it.

said that Zhu Xiongying was not doing his job.

Zhu Xiongying said in his heart, my hobby is okay, and besides, this emperor's grandson is just a child......

But when I think about it, there is no such thing as a group of civil officials who don't spray.

After the prosperity of Yongle in later generations, Zhu Zhanji created the rule of Renxuan, and he worked hard to govern and work hard for the Ming Dynasty.

It's because he likes to play with crickets, and he was given the nickname of "Emperor Cricket" by the civil officials.

"Hey......"

Zhu Xiongying clasped his hands on his chest, and he hid in the small courtyard in front of Bai Huangtian next to the Imperial Garden, and he was also very cautious around him, but he was still not let go by these civil officials.

Looks like I'm not good enough.

In addition, the confidentiality work around me is worrying......

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but pout.

"Zheng He."

Zhu Xiongying looked sideways at Zheng He and pursed his lips.

"Little master, Zheng He is here."

During this time, Zheng He has been trained by Zhu Xiongying in intelligence, and has been able to take charge on his own, representing Zhu Yuanzhang and Mao Xiang, Li Jinglong, Li Wenzhong, etc.

He did the job perfectly.

"You said that His Royal Highness King Lu dared to be wrong, what is not good to play, but he likes to play with women, and if he plays with women, he has to play with guns, and he likes to beat women with guns......"

Zhu Xiongying thought about it and shuddered.

"A musket, it's already terrifying."

"He actually made a three-eyed gun, a four-eyed gun, a five-eyed gun......"

How can you shoot like this, something will happen!

"I heard that he made a ten-eyed gun today, and he wants to show off with me?"

Zheng He smiled bitterly and nodded.

Zhu Xiongying also pouted.

"This is also terrible, the ten-eyed gun, it can shoot ten projectiles at once, the power is great, the problem is that he actually let the palace maid next to him wear the body armor he developed himself to test the gun......"

"It's easy, it's going to go wrong."

"What if you shoot someone?"

"Although it is ...... in body armor"

"Even if you don't shoot people, it's not good to shoot flowers and plants!"

"And if you shoot so much at once, you'll hurt the maid!"

"Uncle Ten is confused, even if he is young and rich, he shouldn't be squandered like this!"

I don't know how expensive gold is when I'm young, Uncle Ten!
