Zhu Yuanzhang is very resolute in handling things.

After the holy decree was prepared, it entered the Zhongshu Province for approval overnight.

Since ancient times, imperial power and relative power have been separated, half and half, with mutual checks and balances.

If it was a previous dynasty, this holy decree might have to go through a long approval process, and it might even be possible to directly send the holy decree back, so that the emperor could consider it again and put forward his opinions.

But this is the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang directly did the prime minister system, and the major affairs of the world are almost decided by one person, and the Zhongshu Province has no right to refute it at all.

The holy decree entered the Zhongshu Province overnight, was quickly approved, and the seal took effect.

The next morning, the matter was announced to the public, and each other was imprisoned for two months.

Supervising the state is a political system in ancient China, which usually refers to the fact that when the emperor is out, an important person stays in the court to handle state affairs on his behalf.

Qin Shi Huang of the Qin Dynasty went on seven tours, and each time his sons took turns to supervise the country to examine their ability to handle government affairs.

However, this is a very long time ago.

Hearing this holy decree, the court really caused an uproar.

Some pedantic officials immediately stood up.

Criticism pointed to Zhu Yuanzhang's behavior of disrespecting the ancestral system.

But Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't care at all, he is an emperor who turned from a beggar to become an emperor, if he listened to these people in everything, would he still be able to have today?

He killed countless officials, and that was also killing when he said he would, without blinking an eyelid.

Soon, those officials who jumped out to make trouble were pulled out, and they were honest after being held accountable.

And most of the remaining officials, that is, symbolic advice, just give up.

After all, because Zhu Yunwen is not favored now, he can rank ahead of Zhu Di in the order of mutual supervision, which is undoubtedly an advantage.

It's already a mountain and a water, and there is no way out, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village, what else can they say, they can only secretly rejoice.

As for Zhu Di, after hearing the news, he was a little depressed at first.

Shouldn't Li Xiao's Special Zone be completed and he will take the position?

But soon, he figured it out.

It was he who thought of his father too simply.

The test of the Special Administrative Region was not aimed at him at all, but only at Li Xiao.

The special zone has become a special minister, a minister who governs the world, and because of this bargaining chip, he can obtain the qualification to compete with Zhu Yunwen.

Otherwise, he might be excluded from the beginning, and the saint directly appointed Zhu Yunwen as the emperor's grandson.

Because of Li Xiao, when he rose to the position of the emperor in his father's mind, the real test came, that is, this test.

In the final analysis, it is still a test of the prince's own ability, if the prince himself is not capable, no matter how many capable ministers he has, he will not be able to control it!

"Understood, I see."

At this time, Zhu Di was also happy, and then, he only needed to perform better than Zhu Yunwen in the past four months, and that was the thing.

Needless to say, the generals have Zhang Yu, Zhang Wu, Qiu Fu and other generals under him, and they are his right-hand men for many years.

As for Wenchen, a few days ago, Li Xiao provided a group of candidates, Xie Jin, Huang Huai, Hu Guang, Hu Yan, Yang Rong, Jin Youzi, Yang Shiqi, Yang Pu, Xia Yuanji, and Lu Zhen.

Some of these people have become friends with them, and some are still unknown and are just small people.

For example, Yang Shiqi is still a small magistrate, and when it is his turn to supervise the country, he can be promoted and used for his own use.

It is now May 17, and the 13th is June, which is when Zhu Yunwen took the lead in supervising the country.

After the promulgation of the holy decree, Zhu Yuanzhang only felt relaxed and in a good mood.

But he was a very suspicious person.

Soon he privately dispatched troops to assemble near Huangshan to ensure his own safety and prevent accidents.

It is also about to be the place where Zhu Yuanzhang went to escape the summer, and the Yellow Mountain is located in Anhui, which is taken from the meaning of "the mountain of the Yellow Emperor", which is a good place to escape the summer.

As June approached, one went to escape the summer, and the other left the imperial court.

Look at the effectiveness of the prison country, killing two birds with one stone.

There are thirteen days left, and we will soon be on our way.

And the final battle for the crown is about to kick off!

East Palace.

Zhu Yunwen happily went back and reported the good news to the Lu family.

"Mother, do you know what happened today? The emperor's grandfather directly issued an order, so that I will be in charge of the country in thirteen days! ”

Zhu Yunwen said excitedly, as if he had won the victory.

In his opinion, he has studied in the palace since he was a child, and his grandfather often taught him the principles of handling national affairs, and he is definitely better than the fourth uncle who can only fight.

The Lu family was also excited, but when he heard the latter sentence, Zhu Di also had to supervise the country, and his face fell.

Lu Shi said worriedly: "Yun Wei, it seems that this is a competition, and your fourth uncle is not easy to deal with." ”

Zhu Yunwen laughed:

"The mother concubine who doesn't matter, who will kill the deer, it is not yet known, the child has long wanted to show his talents, the world says that King Yan is stronger than me, but have you ever thought that King Yan has a stage to show him in Beiping, but I don't, who can know my ability? The child is not afraid at all, if he doesn't scream, he will be a blockbuster! If you don't fly, it's enough, and a flight is higher than the sky! ”

At this time, Zhu Yunwen was extremely confident, full of pride, and full of spirit.

In his opinion, he is just because he has not been able to show on the stage, so the world cannot see his ability.

Now he has the power to oversee the country.

It's like a young eagle coming out of its nest and going with the wind!

Kunpeng spreads its wings and rides the wind and soars to 90,000 miles!

Seeing this, Lu Shi said happily: "Well, the concubine believes that you can, but you don't take it lightly, be careful." ”

Zhu Yunwen waved his hand and said, "Mother, the child knows, in fact, the reason why the child is so confident is because the saint also elected three capable ministers to govern the world for me. ”

When the Lu clan heard this, his heart moved, the candidate launched by the Holy Lord, Ding Wuchao Chi, was likely to be the key to victory, "Which three?" ”

Zhu Yunwen said with a smile: "These three, the mother concubine also knows, it is Fang Xiaoru, Qi Tai, and Huang Zicheng. ”

Lu Shi was overjoyed and said: "I know that these three people have great talents, and now Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng have been used by us, you quickly go to win over Fang Xiaoru, don't let this person be won over by Zhu Di, miss the battle, and regret it too late!" ”

Hearing this, Zhu Yunwen was taken aback.

It's still the mother's reminder in time.

During this time, Zhu Di probably also knew the importance of Fang Xiaoru.

If Fang Xiaoru is such a talented person and is co-opted by King Yan, it will not be good.

"Without further ado, the child will immediately come to visit in person now to win over Fang Xiaoru, so as not to be captured by King Yan."

"Go quickly, you must be courteous, you know?"

"The child knows."

It's the same as ever.

Zhu Yunwen immediately went to Fang Xiaoru's house with a heavy gift.

After seeing Fang Xiaoru, he ate a closed door, Fang Xiaoru was gone, and he didn't accept gifts.

"Sure enough, it's a great talent, in ancient times, Uncle Liu Huang invited Wolong out of the mountain three times to visit the thatched house, and even the emperor's grandfather invited Liu Bowen back then, and he also visited the thatched house three times, I must put down my body and come a few more times"

Zhu Yunwen secretly made up his mind that he must win over this person no matter what.

The capital, the residence of King Yan.

In the hall, Zhu Di discussed things with his three sons.

After learning that two months later, my father would have the right to supervise the country, and everyone was very excited.

I've been in the capital for a month, and I finally see hope, the hope of victory.

My father is about to become the prince, of course, I can't be happy too soon, I must continue to work hard, and win the final test.

"Blazing, when you make friends in the future, you mainly make friends with these people."

As he spoke, Zhu Di took out a piece of paper, which was the list provided by Li Xiao.

"The child is commanded!" Zhu Gaochi took the paper.

Seeing that the eldest brother had an important task, Zhu Gaoxu was a little greedy, and said, "Dad, what about me?" ”

Zhu Di instructed: "You and Gao Sui, go back to Beiping, at the moment the two of you can't help much, half a month later, the saint will go to Huangshan to escape the summer, in order to prevent the king from intervening, but also to bring the king with him, and the king will also go with him." ”

Because Zhu Yuanzhang likes Zhu Gaochi, and because Zhu Gaochi is steady, Zhu Di feels that it is also good for him to stay with Zhu Gaochi.

Two months later, he will be in charge of the country, and he will also need to be assisted by his side.

Gao Xu is not very suitable, as for Gao Sui, he is too young to help.

Zhu Gaoxu looked at the eldest brother, then at Zhu Di, and said stubbornly: "Dad, if I don't leave, you will also leave me and let the third brother go back alone." ”

I can't leave anything, I haven't been there for a few months, and my eldest brother has a good relationship with my father, so won't there be nothing to do with myself in the future?

Zhu Gaosui said aggrievedly: "Second brother, can you bear to let me go back alone?" ”

Zhu Gaoxu said angrily: "Shut up, you go back, I won't leave, I want to stay to help my father." ”

Seeing this, Zhu Gaosui also said: "If the second brother doesn't leave, I won't leave either." ”

Zhu Di frowned and said, "I can't help you, why, what this king said can't move you?" ”

Zhu Gaoxu's temper came up, knelt on the ground, and hugged Zhu Di's thigh: "Dad, I'm not leaving, I'm going to help you here!" ”

has learned from the past, Zhu Di said that he couldn't leave Zhu Gaoxu at all.

This guy, give him a bit of sunshine, he can have a very bright face, dare to doze off in front of the saint in class, and said that the saint went to the urine pit, and he didn't have the courage back then.

"You must go back to Beiping, or this king will break your legs."

Zhu Di kicked Zhu Gaoxu away, pointed at him and scolded.

"I, Zhu Gaoxu, will never leave the capital even if I have a broken leg and be beaten to death."

Zhu Gaoxu shouted with an aggrieved face.

Half an hour later.

got on the carriage back to Beiping.

Zhu Gaoxu's heart is beautiful, it's so fragrant!

"Second brother, what did my father tell you just now?"

"Why did you suddenly change your mind and still giggle all the time?"

"This is not like your style, second brother."

Seeing that the second brother had been stealing music, Zhu Gaosui asked with some confusion.

This change is too fast, right??

"What the hell is going on with you?"

Zhu Gaoxu rolled his eyes.

but the heart is beautiful.

Because my father secretly told himself in my ear just now that when he ascends the throne, the domain of Beiping will be handed over to him, and he will be the next King of Yan!

Zhu Di really thinks so, the border of Beiping, Gao Xu is in charge of Beiping, which is simply the best.

And among so many domains, Zhu Gaoxu's favorite is Beiping.

After all, Beiping is the imperial palace of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, the largest and best, and now there is a brother-in-law governing Beiping, so it will also be the richest domain in the future.

"Brother-in-law, my brother will be back to help you soon."

"After all, this is my territory from now on, and I have to take care of it."

"Not true. From now on, you can call yourself king."

A small village outside the city of Nanjing, outside the courtyard.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Erhu stood together and talked about things.

"What have you been doing in the house lately, this kid?"

Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to be in a particularly happy mood today, and after the early court, he came here early to visit Li Xiao, because of Li Xiao, he finally made a decision.

"Back to the Holy Heavens."

Erhu whispered: "Li Xiao is in the room, resting most of the time, and sometimes he will be at the table, drawing all kinds of drawings. The minister couldn't understand it, but when he was cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, he secretly took a look, and the painting looked like a big house, very big, but the room was small, not like it was for people to live in."

"It's not for people to live in. Is it for livestock? ”

Zhu Yuanzhang thought that yesterday Li Xiao also said that the people of the county could eat meat often, so he thought of livestock.

What is the use of building a house for livestock, this kid can figure it out???

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't figure it out, and didn't think much about it, so he asked again: "What about this?" ”

Erhu said: "By the way, Shengshang, Li Xiao also planted something for His Majesty in the courtyard, and said that the ministers should not inform you for the time being, and they will blossom and bear fruit in a few months, giving you a surprise." ”

"Surprise us??"

Zhu Yuanzhang walked to the garden and looked at the open space that Erhu pointed to.

But I didn't see anything.

"What a surprise. I'm going to see what kind of flowers this kid can grow. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Erhu and ordered: "This courtyard, don't ask anyone to come in, what grows in a few months, report to me." ”

The second tiger arched his hand: "The minister receives the order." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang asked, "Are things ready?" ”

"It's ready."

Saying that, Erhu handed over the wooden box that had been prepared for food to Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Stand guard outside."

Zhu Yuanzhang took the food box and smiled slightly, and walked towards the room.

On the other side, inside the room.

Li Xiao, who opened his eyes, the first thing he did was to give his daughter-in-law who was far away in Beiping a good morning love word, the more he was not around, the more Li Xiao missed each other.

Fortunately, he has telepathy, and he can release love signals to each other every day.

[I always want to give you the best in the world, but I find out. The best in the world is you. Good morning, my love, love you. 】

And Zhu Ningyun quickly felt it, and gave a call back of love every time.

[Mountains and rivers are far and wide, the stars in the world, none of them are you, all of them are you. Good morning and love you. 】

Hearing the return call of love, Li Xiao's heart warmed.

The approximate meaning of this sentence is that Zhu Ningyun misses herself very much, and she misses it all the time.

"My daughter-in-law is still talented, and she drags ancient texts for me every time."

Li Xiao likes this feeling of being a talented woman very much.

On the other hand, I am a little dirty, and I am talking about some earthy love words.

Still. is also considered her own characteristics, and her daughter-in-law has long been accustomed to it, so she just needs to convey her love.

[If you are well, it is a sunny day, and you are still used to living without me? If you feel lonely, you go to Yanwang's Mansion to accompany your mother. 】

[Xiaolang, I'm fine, you're fine, but have you handled the matter over there? Will there be any danger? 】

[There is no danger, I saw that the road was uneven and pulled out a knife to help, and saved an old man, this old man was grateful to Dade, and insisted on keeping me for a few days, and it was difficult to be gracious, and he did talk with him very happily, and he agreed to drink a thousand cups of wine with a confidant. 】

[It is rare to have a confidant in life, and it is the most difficult to find a bosom friend through the ages, Xiaolang, I am happy for you, if you want, it doesn't hurt to stay for a few more days, I won't urge you. 】

"It's still a daughter-in-law who knows that it hurts."

Li Xiaomei thought beautifully.

And then, with a creak, the door was pushed open.

It was Zhu Yuanzhang who came with something.

"This old man, he came and went in a hurry, he didn't knock on the door every time, and he didn't know if it would be a sound, when this was your house. This is indeed your home, and that's fine. ”

After Li Xiao sent a sentence to his daughter-in-law [Daughter-in-law, the confidant came to me, hang up first], he said hello to the old man: "Old man, come to see me again today." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed: "That's right, we came to see you again, I chatted with you yesterday, you helped us but a big thing, after doing it, I felt relaxed." ”

That's right, Zhu Yuanzhang has always been pressed by family and country affairs.

Once the heavy burden is lifted, the whole person's mood becomes extremely happy, and I am afraid that for this reason, he can really live for many more years.

"By the way, what are you kid just talking about with your eyes closed?"

Zhu Yuanzhang asked a little strangely, as soon as he entered the door, he saw Li Xiao lying on the bed, with his eyes closed and a happy look, still chattering.

"I'm afraid you won't believe it, I'm reporting the situation to my daughter-in-law."

Li Xiao said casually, no one believed it anyway.

Zhu Yuanzhang was slightly puzzled: "How to report the situation?" Isn't your daughter-in-law in Beiping? ”

Li Xiao smiled: "This is called heart-to-heart communication, when I speak, she can feel it." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled: "I think you kid is imagining it yourself." ”

How could he believe such nonsense, and he should be a joke.

"Get up, we have prepared food for you, we have thought about it, what you said makes sense, the more people who make contributions, the more they should enjoy life and get special enjoyment, otherwise it is unfair, and no one is willing to contribute, one by one they want to be businessmen and actors who make money quickly, that is a mess."

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled while opening the food box and placing the dishes inside on the table one by one, which was much more abundant than yesterday.

"Old man, I knew you could listen to me, but it's a pity, it's useless for you to listen to it, you have great ambitions, but it's just a cloth and can't be changed."

Li Xiao said with emotion, this is also the status quo of most angry youths.

Fortunately, he is a little angry young man, and he has some authority and can do something.

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled but did not answer.

"Eat, eat, eat, you can't stop your mouth when you eat."

He sat down and waved his chopsticks.

"Old man, wait a minute, I just got up, I haven't brushed my teeth and washed my face yet, wait for me."

With that, Li Xiao got up and walked towards the courtyard.

Zhu Yuanzhang scolded in the back: "You are really lazy, you have been exposed to the sun for three days, and you have just gotten up." ”

You know, he got up early in the morning and went to the morning court.

"You can't be too curly, old man, you have to learn to let go of yourself and enjoy life"

Li Xiao shouted, went out of the room, and then fetched water from the well in the courtyard, and began to brush his teeth and wash his face.

This can make the two tigers stunned.

So how can you still brush your teeth to produce white foam?

"Li Gongzi, what are you?"

Erhu asked, so that he could understand it and report it to the saint.

"Brush your teeth, oh yes, you don't understand. This is my special toothpaste toothbrush, which has the effect of anti-inflammatory and sterilization, as the so-called disease enters from the mouth, and it is easy to get sick. Don't be curious, in a few years, I will be able to popularize this thing in Daming. ”

Li Xiao said vaguely while brushing his teeth.

"Gollum. Poof."

After rinsing his mouth and spitting water, his breath became sober, Li Xiao blew on Erhu, and then asked, "Do you feel that my mouth is very fragrant?" ”

Erhu nodded excitedly: "It's really fragrant, can you?"

This toothpaste toothbrush looks like a good thing, and you can help the saint ask for it, after all, the saint is not easy to open this mouth.

"It's okay to send you, gadgets aren't worth much."

Li Xiao walked to the hall with Erhu, opened his package, took out two toothpaste and toothbrushes, and handed them to Erhu.

"Thank you, Mr. Li." Erhu hurriedly thanked.

"It's a small thing."

Li Xiao washed his face again and returned to the room.

"Old man, I've been waiting for a long time, let's go."

Li Xiao grinned, revealing neat and white teeth.

Tooth was restored to its best condition when he used the item "Back to Eighteen Years Old".

Keep brushing your teeth in the back, your teeth are white and flawless, and you have good teeth.

It's no wonder that Zhu Ningyun likes to kiss Li Xiao.

Just that good tooth, it makes people feel comfortable to look at.

Of course, Zhu Ningyun has long used toothpaste and toothbrush, and she also has good teeth.

"Your teeth are good. Good habits, not bad. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was also a little envious.

Because his teeth are not very good, and he often has toothaches, he is still a big deal.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang had already moved his chopsticks with Li Xiao.

Over the years,

The number of times Zhu Yuanzhang eats alone with others can be counted on one hand.

In addition to the previous prince Zhu Biao, Li Xiao has this treatment now.

Li Xiao asked while eating the food: "By the way, old man, why are you so happy today??" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile: "We took off the burden and handed it over to our son, nothing happened, you said we were not happy." ”

"Old man, transparent!"

Li Xiao gave Zhu Yuanzhang a thumbs up and said: "Listen to people's advice, eat enough, you have now unloaded your burden, take good care of your body, and ensure your happiness and health in your old age." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang: "."

It was the first time Zhu Yuanzhang had heard someone tell him and let him listen to persuasion.

But it works.

He was relieved: "Let's take off the burden, the mood is indeed much better, I went to bed early last night, and I took the medicine of your prescription, this sleep can be really good, after getting up, my head is not dizzy, and my brain is much clearer." ”

Li Xiao took a bite of the fat chicken and said with a smile: "You are caused by too much psychological pressure, too much pressure is not a good thing, people are easy to get sick, you don't have this problem now." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang bowed slightly, and said: "Although we are in a good mood, I always feel that there is still a trace of concern, and I am always worried that my sons will dry up the business."

"The world has both laws and regulations, and it lives up to its promise."

Li Xiao persuaded: "Old man, are you worried that your sons are not as good as you, but have you thought about it, can you protect your son for a while, can you protect him for a lifetime?" They always have to stand in that position and accept the test of growth, you just need to be on the sidelines and just a little touch. Take care of your body, and you'll be able to watch them grow, and maybe there will be surprises! ”

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang was slightly stunned, and it took a long time to come back to his senses.

That's right

As long as you take care of your body, watch it slowly, and watch it on demand, this is the best way to choose the best prince, and you have been holding on to it and not letting go, but you have fallen down.

Zhu Yuanzhang was pleasantly surprised: "Young man, how can you think so thoroughly at a young age?" ”

Li Xiao smiled: "It's foolish." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang: "."

After a while, both of them were full of wine and food.

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang was in a good mood, he ate more, got up and moved to eliminate food.

He paced around the room, walking, and the more he thought about it, the more excited he became.

I feel like I'm right.

The world is safe and has the law of both, it should be like this, there is something to give, there is something to gain!

"Li Xiao, there is nothing to do, let's go to the yard to bask in the sun, how about the poem?"

Zhu Yuanzhang walked for a long time and looked at Li Xiaodao.

"Let's go! For poetry, we haven't been afraid of people. ”

Li Xiao smiled proudly, and then pointed to the wheelchair: "Please ask the old man to push me out."

"It's a small thing."

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and pushed Li Xiao out of the courtyard.

You say a word, I say a word, you come and go.

Afterwards, the two were laughing and praising each other.

The second tiger on the side was stunned.

He has served Zhu Yuanzhang for so long, so many years, and it is the first time he is so happy to see the saint, or with such a young junior.

It's unimaginable

Deeply loved by the saints and the two of them, as well as the two of them

What kind of person will this Li Xiao become in the future?

unimaginable!

Meanwhile.

Jinyi guards are in prison.

Lan Yu was handcuffed and shackled, dirty, with messy hair and dull eyes, just a prisoner that no one cared about.

The edict is called a heavenly prison, and it is heavily guarded, and flies cannot fly in.

But there are always some strange people and strange things on the rivers and lakes, and some sideways techniques.

Lan Yu's powerful figure named Tiangang found an opportunity to secretly kill a jailer of the Jinyi Guard, so that the master could change his face and blend in.

Taking advantage of the effort of delivering food, he reported the current situation in the court to Lan Yu.

After listening, Lan Yu muttered. "The court has changed so much, the saint wants to go to Huangshan to escape the summer, leaving Zhu Yunwen to supervise the country"

Tiangang said: "Lord, at this moment, the saint has not really established the position of the prince, and has not noticed you, I will take this opportunity, there is a lot to do, Zhu Yunxi is also in this prison, he is a righteous son-in-law, it is better to do it."

Lan Yu shook his head: "You don't know the Holy Lord, he does things well, there is no chance of him."

Tiangang said: "Lord, raising soldiers for a thousand days and using soldiers for a while, the organization we have established privately over the years, isn't it the time to put it in use at this moment, no matter what, we have to give it a try, and my subordinates are willing to die for you!" ”

Lan Yu was silent for a long time, he looked at the iron walls around him, and suddenly felt unwilling.

yes, do you really want to be here and rotten like a stinky rat?

Over the years, he has made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty, but in the end he has to suffer this sin

"The fish dies and the net is broken, and there will be a Bo in the end!"

Lan Yu suddenly made up her mind, instead of dying in humiliation like this, it was better to fight, "Zhu Yuanzhang!" If you have been unkind to me, do not blame me for being unjust to you!! ”

Lan Yu looked at Tiangang again and said, "Tiangang, I really didn't misunderstand you, at this critical moment, only you are still thinking about me. Listen to my orders, go and gather the people of the Heavenly Demon Society, and I also have a few generals of the guards, who are my loyal subordinates, and they are secretly in contact."

Lan Yu secretly explained all his hole cards.

Tiangang arched his hand: "Lord, subordinates receive orders!" ”

After speaking,

and disappeared into this dark prison
