Side story: Yongle the Great

"Emperor Taishang, there is Liujiagang in front, look at it!" Zheng He said happily.

This Marquis of Ning Yuan has been baptized by the sea breeze for many years, the vicissitudes of life in the corners, and his white hair is like silver, but he is still full of temperament and extraordinary when he speaks.

Zhu Di looked over and suddenly said in surprise: "What is that, why is it so big?" ”

Zheng He looked at it again and again, and then said: "Eighty percent is a crane used in the wharf." ”

"Cranes? There used to be, but it didn't seem to be that big! ”

Zheng He said with a smile: "In the past, it was used to use pulleys to pull it with manpower and animal power, if the minister didn't guess wrong, this one uses steam!" ”

"Steam? Is that the second one who got that? Zhu Di couldn't help sighing, "Did he really make it?" ”

Zheng He sighed: "Who said no, His Royal Highness the King of Han really has supreme ability!" ”

Zhu Di snorted, "Who can he beat with that little bit of Taoism?" Not to mention the boss and Xu Jingchang, even Zhu Zhanji is afraid that he is much more powerful than him. ”

Zheng He sneered, not daring to answer.

The dragon boat docked, and the ministers greeted him.

The crown prince Zhu Zhanji was also there, accompanied by Xu Xianzhong.

Zhu Di got down from the dragon boat, Zhu Zhanji trotted over, he looked at Zhu Di, froze, and after a while, he knelt on the ground, hugged Zhu Di's thigh, and cried loudly.

"Grandpa Huang, why are you so old!"

Zhu Di was stunned, reached out and patted Zhu Zhanji's shoulder, "You have a beard, can the emperor's grandfather not be old?" Hurry up! ”

He picked up Zhu Zhanji and looked at Xu Xianzhong again.

This kid is so easy to recognize, in a bunch of people, he is half a head taller than others.

"What is your official position now? Why didn't Daddy come to greet you? ”

Xu Xianzhong hurriedly said: "Emperor Taishang, the minister hangs the title of the young Zhan Shi of the Zhan Mansion, and occasionally accompanies His Royal Highness the Prince, and most of the time, the minister is still studying. As for his father, he didn't come, but he was accompanying Young Master Yao. ”

"Young Master Yao? How is he? Zhu Di said with concern.

"Young Master Yao is too old, and now in the last period of time, he can't be without acquaintances around him, and his father will take care of him in the morning and evening, and he can't get out of it when he talks to him."

Yao Guangxiao has reached the stage of hospice care, and Zhu Di has no anger at all, just urging, hurry up.

Zhu Zhanji and Xu Xianzhong accompanied them and headed from Liujiagang to the capital.

Walking on the road, Zhu Di felt even more unusual...... The wide and flat official road, all paved with cinders, is smooth and sturdy, and there are trees on both sides of the road.

Every other section, there are warehouses, restaurants, and various buildings.

People come and go, and prosperity prospers.

Zhu Di looked in his eyes, and gradually the corners of his mouth turned up, revealing a relieved smile.

"Grandson, what do you think of this Daming country?"

"Taiping and prosperous, far away from the Han and Tang Dynasties!"

"Hahaha!" Zhu Di raised his head and laughed, "Didn't you go outside to take a look!" When you get outside, you'll know, let's ...... It's a heavenly man! ”

Zhu Zhanji's eyes widened, he was speechless for a long time, and then said: "Grandpa Huang is so praised, presumably overseas is far inferior to Daming." But how did I hear Dingguo Gong say that there are treasures overseas, and there are Rui beast unicorns. ”

"What a unicorn!"

Zhu Di interrupted directly, "That's all fools!" I saw with my own eyes, hundreds, let a group of wild men chase after them, and poke them to death with javelin spears. The savages were swarthy, like coal. However, they are tall and long-legged, have excellent endurance, and can run for dozens of miles after wild beasts. It's funny to say, it's a waste of a good place to hunt for a living, but you don't know how to farm. ”

mentioned overseas, Zhu Di opened the conversation, "Grandson, you should go out and have a look if you have time." Go to Tianzhu to see, that place is so interesting, when you get there, you will know what it means to have its own business and the world is under great rule. ”

Xu Xianzhong heard that something was wrong, and said curiously: "Emperor Taishang, how did I hear that Tianzhu is a piece of scattered sand, and the people are miserable!" ”

Zhu Di laughed, "It's really hard, but people don't feel bitter." ”

"Anyone else doesn't feel bitter?" Zhu Zhanji was surprised.

Zhu Di said with a smile: "As long as you believe in the next life, you will suffer in this life and accumulate karma honestly, and you will be able to become a master in the next life." If you fool around in this life, you may consume all the accumulated in your previous lives, and you will only be able to turn into stones in the next life. ”

Zhu Zhanji and Xu Xianzhong were stunned...... And such a wonder!

Especially Xu Xianzhong, he can't understand it, because from the very beginning, his father taught him to question authority and have new ideas, even if it is your father, you can't blindly follow it...... It is precisely because of this that between Xu Xianzhong and Xu Jingchang, there are more brothers than father and son.

This is also Xu Jingchang's point of view, the last thing he wants is an honest and obedient child.

It seems that Daddy is really far-sighted!

Zhu Di returned to Yingtian, did not go to the palace, and came directly to Jishan Temple.

As soon as he arrived at the door, he heard the bell ringing inside, one after another, and when he looked up again, there was a spirit flag hanging high, and there was a faint cry.

"How?" Zhu Di was shocked, and hurriedly walked inside, and when he arrived at the Daxiong Treasure Hall, he happened to see Xu Jingchang, with a white belt tied around his waist.

"Young Master Yao, he?"

"Emperor Taishang, Uncle Yao is gone."

Zhu Di's body shook violently and almost fell.

Xu Jingchang hurriedly held on, and after a while, Zhu Di breathed a sigh of relief, and tears welled up from the corners of his eyes.

"Young Master, why don't you wait for me!"

After speaking, Zhu Di ran to the quiet room, lay on Yao Guangxiao's corpse, and cried.

Xu Jingchang was accompanying him, and his eyes were red.

After a long while, Zhu Di raised his head, "Xu Jingchang, does the young master have any explanation?" ”

Xu Jingchang said: "The young master said that he can't continue to accompany His Majesty, so he can only take the first step...... He assisted His Majesty in this life and achieved the merit of appeasement, and he has no regrets. He hoped that His Majesty would have no regrets as well. ”

Zhu Di let out a long sigh, "Yes, I don't want to have any regrets!" ”

He pondered for a while, and said slowly: "When the young master is buried, I will go to worship my father." ”

……

In the fifteenth year of Hongxi, Emperor Yongle, who had already passed the age of six, took a stack of things and went to Xiaoling to meet Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Father, the child took away his nephew Zhu Yunwen's country, which is against the will of your old man."

As soon as he opened his mouth, people were surprised, didn't this matter have been explained a long time ago, why did Zhu Di still remember it?

"No matter what the world thinks, the child knows in his heart that it doesn't make perfect sense...... But now, the child doesn't care. ”

As he spoke, Zhu Di picked up a map and put it on the ground.

"Father, look, this is Luzon."

Zhu Di picked up another one, "This is Java, this is Malacca, this is Ceylon, this is amazing, this is Tianzhu ......" Zhu Di seemed to offer treasures, showing the maps to Lao Zhu.

After a full quarter of an hour, Zhu Di said with happiness on his face: "The child has so many achievements, and he has magnified Chinese civilization...... It's enough to compete with my father's restoration of China! ”

Little ashamed...... Let's talk about the new book.,It was originally released this week.,But after discussing with the editor.,I found that the problem is quite big.,The main thing is that the plot is not going in the right direction...... The main reason for this is that I want to write something different, but I can't turn it around for a while.

It's still a good idea now, and it shouldn't take long...... As for the side story of this book, you can click on it, and I will write it when I have time...... Then there is to apologize to the big guy, if there is anything to say, you can stay in the new book and scold me......
