Fortunately, the tormented days did not last long. After school that day, the crown prince told them that his father had summoned them.

The brothers asked each other in unison:

"You, you ......"

"You didn't do anything bad?"

"What's the trouble again?"

"Sixth, you didn't make any more ghosts, did you?"

After getting "no, no ......"

"Nope."

"I didn't do anything."

"I just want to have a few days of peace now." After the reply, they relieved their hearts and followed the prince to the Wuying Palace.

Zhu Biao saw that Lao Qi was also following, so he touched his head and smiled: "Lao Qi, my father didn't ask you to go." ”

"I'll follow...... King Qi said in a sullen voice, saying that he couldn't give his mother any excuse.

"It's fine." Zhu Biao smiled and said, "Learn more from your sixth brother, maybe you can ride a donkey in the palace." ”

King Qi glanced at the King of Chu, who was sitting proudly on the back of a cow, and he didn't know what this kind of scum was so easy to learn.

And he also kidnapped his eighth brother......

Hmph, what is there to ride on a cow, I will ask my father to agree when I go back, and this king will ride a donkey in the palace!

~~

Wuying Palace.

After the princes saluted, Zhu Yuanzhang raised his head from the case, took off his glasses and looked at his sons, and said with a kind smile:

"It's all here. Hey, you two are here to join in the fun. Seventh, take your brother back to do his homework quickly. ”

"Father, my mother said, the sixth ...... I'll be where my brother is. Lao Qi said aggrievedly: "Otherwise, you will beat me." ”

", when the sixth child is herding cattle in his hometown, why don't you follow." Zhu Yuanzhang scolded with a smile and said, "Hurry up, my father wants to talk to your brothers about business." ”

"Oh......" Lao Qi had no choice but to nod in response, and said in his heart that this time the father and the emperor spoke, the mother concubine has no reason, right?

When he turned around, he saw Lao Liu squeezing his eyebrows at him, and he couldn't help but feel a sigh in his heart, and finally realized the sadness of being excluded......

That's what the concubine was worried about, right? He sighed secretly, so he had to lead the eighth child with two tears in his eyes......

The prince couldn't help but shake his head, Concubine Da Ding pushed Lao Qi too hard, and something would happen if it went on like this.

~~

As soon as the old man left, the kindness on Boss Zhu's face was fleeting, pulling a donkey's face, staring at a pair of bull's eyes, and sweeping the rest of his son.

These are the goods that accompanied him to harvest in Fengyang Autumn. Zhu Yuanzhang scolded in a blunt tone: "A group of traitors!

"We are so good to you, but you will take revenge and raise you a group of white-eyed wolves for nothing!"

Before returning to Beijing, he Boss Zhu put down his sons, made promises to his sons, and enhanced their relationship, isn't it just to help them pass the test smoothly, at least not to help?

As a result, they were good, and as soon as they saw her, Ma Xiuying threw their father's love out of the clouds, and held a complaint meeting on the spot. It hurt Boss Zhu's butt to still have a faint pain.

The sons of the "......" all bowed their heads quailly, not daring to respond. How can he have the courage to enthusiastically expose and criticize his father's evil deeds that day.

That was the courage given to them by the Queen Mother, not their own. The queen mother was not present, so naturally she didn't have the courage to ......

"Also, we heard Mr. Song say that these days when you go back to the main hall, you have been unable to give up, and your studies are in a mess." Zhu Yuanzhang scolded again:

"Even the third child, a former good student, began not to study well, and knew to brag all day long. Are you convicted? ”

"Guilty ......" Brother said like a few frosted eggplants, wilting his head.

"To admit punishment or not?" Zhu Yuanzhang sneered.

"Admit punishment."

"Hmph, let's write it down." Zhu Yuanzhang is still in the stage of medical parole, how dare he pick quarrels and provoke trouble, and add crime to crime? can only be scolded and regained some of the dignity of his father. Then he changed his words:

"If you don't want to miss it, don't even read it, don't think about stepping into the main hall again in the future!"

Twenty-four six hearts said,, there is still this good thing?

The third child was like a mourner, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and cried: "Father, give your son another chance!" I guarantee the head cantilever, taper and thorn strands. No, I use scissors. What's the point of living if you don't study......"

246 felt a greasy smell in his heart, and he was paralyzed yesterday and said that he was really happy to be a bad student......

"Didn't we appoint Liang Yin as the king of Jin? Isn't it enough for you to study with him at night! Zhu Yuanzhang said in a deep voice. Parents always prefer studious children.

"What about the daytime?" The brothers looked at their father together, and it seemed that they were not allowed to go to the main hall, not as a punishment, but as another arrangement.

"Keep up the experience." Zhu Yuanzhang said lightly.

"Where are you going...... my brother trembled for a while, he just came back and didn't rest for a few days, why do you want to come again?

"I'm not going anywhere this time, I'm in Kyori." Zhu Yuanzhang was very complacent: "The cornerstone of the country is agriculture and soldiers, without farmers to farm, all the people of the country have to starve to death; Without soldiers to defend the country, the crops grown by the peasants would be taken away by the enemy.

"In the future, when you go out of the town, you must love the soldiers and sympathize with the peasants, as long as you do these two things, this vassal king will not be bad. Have you memorized them all? ”

"Yes, son." The brothers hurriedly complied.

"Earlier, you have deeply realized the difficulties of farmers. So this time, it's time to experience the difficulty of soldiers. Zhu Yuanzhang continued: "Anyway, you can't learn, so don't waste time in the main hall, hurry up and enlist in the army, just in time for this year's autumn and winter exercises!" ”

"Great, Father!" Zhu Fan was so excited that he didn't stutter, and the fourth child also grinned happily, for these two children who grew up in the military camp, going to join the army again is like going back to their parents' home.

Thinking of finally being able to devote themselves to the vigorous autumn and winter military training, the two were excited and eager to kiss their old father.

~~

The so-called autumn and winter drills are a tradition in Boss Zhu's army.

When he was still mixed under Guo Zixing, Zhu Yuanzhang witnessed the mixed rebel army, which was defeated several times under the attack of a small number of elite Yuan troops.

Since then, he has realized a truth - 'Soldiers are not expensive, but noble, and many are not refined, and they are tired of marching in vain.' ’

Therefore, for many years, he has been strict with the generals under his command to seize the gap between battles and train the elite soldiers. In order to rapidly improve the combat effectiveness of the army, he often appeared in various armies without saying hello and held military parades on the spot to test the training status and combat skills of the troops.

Unqualified generals will be demoted and trained, and at worst, they will be served with military sticks, and then sent to be the main soldiers......

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the fighting situation has decreased sharply, and the significance of training exercises has become even greater.

In the sixth year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang promulgated the "Law on Coaching Sergeants", which stipulated in detail the standards and norms for the training of officers and non-commissioned officers at all levels, as well as relatively objective standards for rewards and punishments.

He also asked the provincial health offices to take turns to 'go to the imperial pre-inspection test', that is, to enter Beijing to be inspected by the emperor and conduct martial arts exercises. Generally, it is the turn of the health center to set off after the autumn harvest and arrive in Nanjing for training for a period of time. Then there are exercises and competitions in winter, which is called 'autumn exercises and winter exercises'.

Since then, the promotion and selection of officers and men in the Ming Dynasty have basically been linked to the results of the autumn and winter exercises every year. Whether it is a mule or a horse, they all have to be taken out for a walk, and those who are indiscriminate have no place to stand, which greatly maintains the combat effectiveness of the Ming army.

Ps. The Ming Dynasty did not have a political envoy in this year, called Xingzhongshu Province, referred to as Xingzhongshu Province, which was changed later. Believe me, the old Ming Dynasty is talking about an authentic ......
