Chapter 34: I will take Your Highness to meet someone
Li Jinglong's good impression of Zhu Yu skyrocketed, so he patiently explained:
"It's my father's daughter, does King Qi know that my father led his troops to attack Jianning back then?"
"My father won the world at the beginning, ordered Xu Da, Chang Yuchun to march north, my eldest brother went south, led the boat division to capture Jianning, that battle won a big victory, captured Chen Youding of Fujian Pingzhang, this king is right?"
Chen Youding was an official of the Yuan Dynasty, exploiting the people every year and transporting grain to Dadu.
Li Jinglong turned his head unexpectedly, but Zhu Lang was clear, which really surprised him.
"That's right, my sister and her father, it was Li Yanhui, the commander at the time, who died for his father to block the arrows, and his father adopted her as his daughter, my father often said that if he didn't die, he would definitely be able to be knighted."
The battle is not over yet, and no one dares to predict the future glory and wealth, so they have to entrust their wives and children.
This is common in the army at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, which has been in war for many years, and there is no shortage of fateful friendships that transcend the level.
Queen Ma died like this.
While talking, he walked to a quiet and elegant wing room in the west.
Zhu Yu saw from a distance that a young woman in a green shirt was sitting in front of the window lattice, with a curling figure and a good appearance.
Zhu Rong is the first time to see the daughter of a large family who has not been out of the cabinet.
Li Jinglong shouted Sister.
Zhu Yu saw that the young woman inside who should call her uncle saluted slightly.
She didn't come out to see her.
I wanted to get a glimpse of her from behind the lattice......
"His Royal Highness King Qi, you can't go over!"
Liu Jiu gritted his teeth and hugged Zhu Rong, who had already walked inside.
Ah, I almost broke the etiquette.
The etiquette of the early Ming Dynasty was quite strict.
During the Yuan Dynasty, the people saw that the officials had to kneel down on one knee, first kneel down on one leg, and after kowtowing, the other leg also knelt down.
Zhu Yuanzhang was extremely disgusted with the etiquette system of the Yuan Dynasty, and he appointed Tao Kai as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, changed the etiquette system of the Yuan Dynasty, and changed to the Confucian worship ceremony when they met.
A woman does not need to bow to an official in private.
In fact, kneeling is mostly used to receive orders.
"Today, the prince is not in the mansion, without permission, forgive the little girl for not being able to see King Qi privately, and ask His Royal Highness for forgiveness."
In the future, Li Wenzhong will ask the emperor to marry her, and Zhu Rong can also understand.
The key is that this is Li Wenzhong's backyard, and Li Jinglong's shrimp head didn't say a word, and he came by pulling his sleeve.
However, you can't see it that way.
After Li Jinglong finished talking about the ins and outs of the matter, he was a little arrogant:
"Sister, I have promised His Royal Highness King Qi, and I can't break my word!"
Li Suning's voice was cold, and she did not lose her restraint: "Why don't you discuss it with Guogong?" ”
I feel like a smart niece.
All of a sudden, I thought of the power involved.
If Li Jinglong went to Zhu Yuanzhang to intercede, I am afraid that Zhu Yuanzhang would first stare at him with a sharp gaze, and then sneered and asked, why did he intercede for her, is it the same party?
Therefore, Zhu Yu did not mention anyone at the birthday banquet.
Li Suning must have thought of this, and in a hurry, she didn't care about blaming Li Jinglong in front of him.
"Sister!"
"His Royal Highness King Qi, I thanked Jinglong for me."
Zhu Yu glanced at the window lattice and said with a smile: "Then thank you... Big niece too. ”
The woman in the green shirt behind the window lattice was stunned and did not respond.
If Zhu Yu bypassed the window lattice, he could see Li Suning at this time, frowning, looking at him with beautiful eyes, and seemed to be quite concerned about the word niece.
On the way back to the palace, Zhu Yu saw a notice posted on the imperial wall, which was an announcement of official corruption, and the people would be rewarded if they exposed it.
Previously, the imperial court ordered that 60 taels of beheading were embezzled, but it was found that the corrupt officials could not be killed, so the amount was lowered and changed to beheading if they were greedy for a copper plate.
No corrupt official can survive the Hongwu Dynasty.
Next to Zhu Rong, there was an official in green clothes, with his neck bent, just like seeing the holy decree of beheading.
Zhu Yan shook his head, as long as it is an official who has a ghost in his heart, he will be frightened when he sees it.
…………
Zhu Yu had breakfast, beat Liu Jiu, a dog eunuch who was lazy and didn't take the bathwater, and then came to Wulou refreshed.
Today, Wu Lou can't hear the noise of the princes, and it seems that he can't come to the figure.
One is the commander Li Rong, and the other is Han Zheng, the Marquis of Dongping.
Both stood behind Li Wenzhong.
Li Wenzhong sat in the scripture hall of the martial arts building, waiting for Zhu Rong to come in.
"Starting today, King Qi will learn horse politics with his ministers."
The words of the eldest niece really worked!
Li Wenzhong's eyes were serious.
He has very few words, not as loud as Chang Yuchun.
Zhu Yu couldn't help but be happy when he saw Li Wenzhong who didn't want to teach, but had to come:
"What does my brother want to teach me?"
"Any set of tactics of war must not be copied and rigid, the battlefield is a place of rapid change, and what I want to teach His Highness is something that cannot be spoken."
In fact, Liu Bowen, as Zhu Yuanzhang's military advisor, also knows the art of war and horse politics.
Why didn't Zhu Yu ask him directly.
It boils down to the reason for the failure of Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition.
Liu Ji is more like a strategist, Liu Ji may be a good strategist, but not necessarily a good general.
"Your Highness knows, what did the minister say?"
"What my brother said is a keen eye, accurate judgment, and crisis response, these are all ineffable, if I learn these well, can I command the army like my brother?"
"I can't."
"Why?"
"There are things I can teach, there are things I can't teach, if His Highness's brother violates military law, can His Highness order him to be executed?"
"This ......"
"If not, before the expedition, His Highness's lecture will not be able to boost morale."
"In a battle, tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people die, among them, there may be His Highness's henchmen and brothers, looking at the corpses all over the field, if you know that more people will die, can Your Highness still stay calm and fight again and again?"
"I ......"
Zhu Yu finally understood why Zhu Yuanzhang was able to do so much without changing his face.
To fight a war, you don't know how to deploy troops and dispatch generals, just calculate grain and grass.
Mood!
Firm will! Ruthless means!
These are all things that Li Wenzhong could not teach him.
The art of war can be cultivated through acquisition, but the state of mind and will are fought one battle after another.
"Has Your Highness ever played blind chess?"
"I haven't played it, but Mr. said that there is no chessboard, no chess pieces, and you can play with your memory, and among the kings, this king has an excellent memory."
Hearing Liu Ji, Li Wenzhong couldn't help frowning.
As a member of the Huaixi Party, he didn't like to mention Liu Ji very much, although he had no grievances with Liu Ji, but he didn't want to get involved in the dispute between Huaixi and Zhejiang.
Li Wenzhong is obviously a very busy person, and he does not waste time at all.
When he said that blind chess was used as a medium, Zhu Rong was stunned.
Li Wenzhong gave the terrain and the time of the soldiers and horses, and the two sides played against each other, if this is the case, how to send troops to deal with it.
Between the words, Zhu Yu could feel the feeling of using soldiers and horses as chess pieces and playing an invisible game.
This is more flexible than the book of war, and Li Wenzhong integrates experience into change.
Zhu Yu's common sense seems to have been opened a small hole, and this small hole is being slowly pried open.
Li Wenzhong stood up: "Today's three sets, none of which satisfied me. ”
His face was calm, as if he had agreed to what he had expected.
At this time, Li Wenzhong was like a masseuse in Zhu Rong's eyes, and he wished he could serve for a few more minutes, but Li Wenzhong was obviously a person with no professional ethics.
Li Wenzhong walked out, and Han Zheng strode to follow him, leaving Li Rong alone in the lecture hall.
Zhu Yu was indignant: "The king of tomorrow will definitely win you!" ”

The title has been changed back, this king
