Chapter 23: Romance of the Three Kingdoms
The temple of the body. waved away the bewildered civil officials and guards, and only Lao Zhu's wife and the prince's family of three were left in the palace.
"Father." The crown prince Zhu Biao still looked confused. "Then Jianzhou Jurchen, what did you do to make you so angry?"
"Even at any cost, so many generals were sent to plow the court and sweep the holes."
"I am a big country in China, and I should treat these tribes with courtesy and morality. Fang shows the strength of our country. Why ......?"
"Convince people with virtue...... Convince people with virtue! Lao Zhu snorted hard.
"That's a white-eyed wolf!" Lao Zhu looked at this son. In the past, I thought that this son was gentle and elegant, and he was a good ruler of success. Today, I feel that how unpleasant it is to look at. "For that kind of white-eyed wolf, if you still want to convince people with virtue, one day you will be sick and weak."
"They'll jump up, bite off a piece of your flesh, or even replace you!"
"The best way to deal with this white-eyed wolf is to beat it! Beat it up! Let him be afraid of you for generations to come! He'll turn into a well-behaved dog! ”
"If you have the ability and don't bother to bother, then kill it!"
"Only a dead wolf won't bite!"
Lao Zhu clenched his fist fiercely. Zhu Biao's face turned pale when he said it, but the look on his face was not too agreeable.
Queen Ma watched quietly from the side. I suddenly remembered what Xiao Wu'er Zhu Su had said to him.
"The eldest brother is the crown prince, he went to learn the knowledge that only courtiers should learn, is this really good?"
I used to think that Xiao Wu'er was just a teenager, and his words didn't go to heart.
But now, knowing that he is a traverser, Queen Ma has to pay attention to it.
Could it be that with those great Confucians, can't you learn to be a wise and martial emperor?
Seeing that the prince still wanted to ask, Queen Ma hurriedly grabbed her son.
"Biao'er. Your father did the right thing. ”
"Listen to my mother."
Saying that, he told Zhu Biao about Zhu Su's self-disclosure that he was a traverser and accurately predicted the situation of the Northern Expedition, as well as the tragic situation that Zhu Yuanzhang was told at the end of the Ming Dynasty last night.
This is Lao Zhu's husband and wife, and they have discussed it early in the morning. Biao'er is the prince of the Ming Dynasty, even if you want to hide this matter, you can't hide it.
"This ...... This ......"
"How is that possible!"
Zhu Biao took two steps back in surprise. "Fifth brother, from the future more than 600 years later?"
"My Ming Dynasty was taken away by the Jianzhou Jurchens?"
"What's impossible!" Lao Zhu waved his dragon robe. Completely forgetting that he didn't believe it at first.
"You are his own brother, after the fifth child recovered from his illness five years ago, what are the abnormalities, don't you know at all?"
When Lao Zhu said this, Zhu Biao suddenly remembered something.
He once overheard the fifth child talking to his sister Princess Lin'an outside the house. It is about the story of Zhuge Liang's six trips out of Qishan during the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty.
At that time, he listened to what Lao Wu said wonderfully, so he listened quietly for a while, and then entered the house and asked Lao Wu where he heard this good word.
Lao Wu said at the time that this book was written by a person named Luo Guanzhong, called "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Because the content was really interesting, Zhu Biao took it to heart, and specially asked others if he knew Luo Guanzhong, a great talent.
Later, I learned that this Luo Guanzhong was originally a staff member under Zhang Shicheng's account, and after Zhang Shicheng's defeat, Luo Guanzhong returned to the mountains and forests and never went out again.
And Luo Guanzhong did write a book called "Popular Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
It's just that, as far as he knows, that book has only been written in twelve volumes so far!
And the fifth brother Zhu Su can already tell the content of the next six Qishan!
Thinking of this, Zhu Biao's eyes suddenly widened. So, is he really from the future?
"Biao'er?" Seeing Zhu Biao's stunned face, Queen Ma asked gently, "What did you remember?" ”
Zhu Biao came back to his senses and quickly informed Lao Zhu and Queen Ma of this.
The husband and wife glanced at each other, and Lao Zhu laughed. "It seems that the fifth child is really a traverser!"
This strengthened his determination to swear last night to establish a Ming dynasty that would not be easy for all generations. He strode forward: "Go! Go find the old five! ”
"We still have a lot of things to do about this Da Ming, we have to ask him thoroughly!"
……
Zhu Su was still waiting early in the morning to see if Lao Zhu would be true to his word, remembered the agreement with him, and found someone to pass on the decree so that he didn't have to go to the main hall.
However, after procrastinating for a long time, he never saw the eunuch who delivered the decree, which made him feel very disappointed.
But I don't dare to skip class for no reason, after all, the family law of the old Zhu family, that can be ruthless!
At this time, I really regarded myself as a prince, and put up the score of the prince, Lao Zhu's thick-soled gold silk dragon boots taught you to be a man in minutes!
I couldn't help but feel a little frustrated. It's already a shame for a traverser to mess up so badly. Which other traverser didn't fight the world with the system after crossing over, pretending to be forced all the way to the end?
I don't have a system, don't say it, apportionment of the identity of the traverser, Lao Zhu still doesn't believe it......
Shame on you!
He was listening to Old Master Song's discourse in the main hall and was drowsy, when suddenly a long-awaited figure appeared in the corner of his eye, which instantly made Zhu Su feel refreshed.
Two Tigers! Brother Tiger!
You're here!
"Lord Song. Your Majesty has a will. ”
"Order the Fifth Highness to go to the Qianqing Palace to see His Majesty!"
Erhu's ugly voice was like a heavenly sound in Zhu Su's ears at this moment.
"I'll go!"
Zhu Su immediately stood up, and before Old Master Song could react, he ran out of the house.
Leaving Song Lian, as well as Zhu Laoer, Zhu Laosan, and Zhu Laosi, they looked at each other.
What happened to this fifth child, why was he arrested by his father and taken to the Qianqing Palace for two days in a row?
And he looked happy...... Could it be that his father secretly opened a small stove for him?
Thinking that Lao Zhu and Lao Wu were in the Qianqing Palace, hiding from the fasting palace people secretly barbecued meat and eating, Zhu Lao Er instantly drooled.
No, no, no, if you have a barbecue with your father, it's better not to eat it!
In the eyes of these princes, Daddy Zhu Yuanzhang is not a loving father, but an extremely terrifying beast.
……
Coming to Qianqing Palace is the meaning of Queen Ma. Originally, Lao Zhu planned to go directly to Zhu Su's small courtyard to wait for him.
But Queen Ma thought about it more deeply, she felt that the courtyards of the princes also lived with personal attendants, and there were many people. It's better to go to the emperor's dormitory, Qianqing Palace.
The Qianqing Palace is strictly forbidden and soundproof. When you talk about these secret things, you are not afraid of being heard.
It was their family of three that they came to the Qianqing Palace to wait for Zhu Su. When Zhu Su came, he saw that the case that was cut by Lao Zhu yesterday was gone, and a large round table was set up in the empty hall, and Lao Zhu, Queen Ma, and Zhu Biao were sitting at the table waiting for him. Seeing him come in, the eldest brother Zhu Biao hurriedly beckoned him and motioned for him to sit on the empty chair left for him.
"It's pretty fast." Zhu Su couldn't help but admire the work speed of the palace maids and eunuchs in his heart. It's just that, looking at their family of three sitting at the table, there is always a feeling that they can't sit down.
They all know that in Lao Zhu's heart, only the crown prince Zhu Biao is the closest and dearest son. The old Queen Zhuma and the crown prince, these three people are the most precious wives and children in Lao Zhu's heart.
The other children are always separated by a layer.
"What are you doing?" Zhu Biao stood up and pulled his fifth brother to sit down. "Don't waste your time. My brother has a lot of questions in his heart and wants to ask you carefully. ”
"Yes. I have seen my father and the queen mother. Zhu Su sat down as he said. When facing Lao Zhu alone, he can still call him dad half-jokingly. Now that his wife and children are here, Zhu Su is a little speechless.
"We have already told your mother and your eldest brother about last night." Lao Zhu didn't pay attention to the abnormality of his fifth son, but Queen Ma frowned slightly.
"Your eldest brother wants to ask you personally, you tell him, Chongzhen, is he the last king of our Ming Dynasty?"
"Yes." Zhu Su nodded. In fact, there is still a small court in the Southern Ming Dynasty behind, but the gate of the country guarded by the Son of Heaven has been lost, and there is nothing wrong with saying that Chongzhen has died in the country.
The expressions of the three of them were dark. Lao Zhu sighed: "Hey, it's a pity for this good boy......"
Good boy? Zhu Su pursed his lips slightly. Although Chongzhen is strong, he can't be called a "good" word.
If he is a good emperor, then Lu Xiangsheng, Sun Chuanting, Sun Chengzong and others have something to say.
It should be that what he said yesterday was too emotional, as well as the tragic edict, coupled with Lao Zhu's filter for the descendants of this "filial son and virtuous grandson", so in Lao Zhu's eyes, Chongzhen has become a "good boy".
But then again, if you compare it with Baozong, Jiajing, and Tianqi, Chongzhen is indeed a good boy.
After all, he just lacked the corresponding education and was miserably miserated. The starting point is still good.
