"Let's go upstairs and talk."

Ji Boying saw that Lao Zhu looked like he wanted to speak and stopped, and beckoned.

"Okay."

Lao Zhu hurriedly stepped forward and went to the top of the private room with Ji Boying.

When the class was in the main hall, except for the incense and jade, the rest of the attendants were not allowed to enter, and after the class, the jade called some girls to come in and clean up the slightly chaotic main hall, such as burned incense ashes, used rice paper, etc.

And Lian Xiang is sitting on the side of the podium, writing hard, although her heart is not as meticulous as Xiyu, but she has a skill that her sister Xiyu does not have, that is, super memory.

At this time, she was supplementing every sentence that Ji Boying said in class, and it could be said that every word was not bad, and compiled these words into a book for future students to read.

A hand-made beautiful small letter, pleasing to the eye.

In the private room on the top of the pavilion, the sun shines in from the floor-to-ceiling screen window as early spring approaches the afternoon.

Ji Boying and Lao Zhu entered the house with their front and back feet, sat down on the tea case next to the floor-to-ceiling screen window, and at a glance, it was the sparkling Qinhuai River, the river was more than ten zhang wide, and there was an endless stream of cruise ships, and the two people on the riverside came and went, showing a prosperous image.

Not to mention how the officials of the Hongwu Dynasty were, regardless of how many officials were killed, it is said that under the rule of Lao Zhu, compared to the Yuan Dynasty, the people were chaotic and starving, and the people did not know how much more stable, which was also a blessing for the people.

In later generations, no matter what Lao Zhu's merits are, just creating the Ming Dynasty, stabilizing the four seas, and seeking a peaceful life and work for the people of the world is enough to crown the eternal.

"Brother, come."

Lao Zhu took out the pack of fine cigarettes that Ji Boying gave him last night, smiled and gave Ji Boying cigarettes, Ji Boying subconsciously took the cigarette, Lao Zhu hurriedly took out the match, scratched it, and prepared to light a cigarette for Ji Boying.

No one can teach you to have such a good operation, Lao Zhu can fight the world from a bowl, and he really has a few brushes in the world.

"Forget it, don't smoke, I didn't sleep well last night, and my throat is a little hot."

Ji Boying flipped his hand, put away the cigarette handed over by Lao Zhu, and patted Lao Zhu on the shoulder by the way.

"You smoke less, too."

"Remember, especially not to smoke next to your wife."

Popularize knowledge, the word 'wife' in the Tang and Song dynasties has the meaning of wife, and at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the word 'wife' basically refers to the husband's title for his wife.

When Queen Ma came last night, Ji Boying forgot about this stubble without paying attention, and smoked next to a tuberculosis patient, which was simply evil.

"Okay, okay, don't smoke, let's listen to my brother."

Lao Zhu blew out the match, and then put away the cigarette case.

At this time, the door of the private room knocked lightly three times, and then opened with a babbling sound, Xiyu entered with tea, stepped on the lotus step to the side of the two, and poured two cups of tea gently and politely.

"I have important matters to discuss with Your Majesty, and no one is allowed to go upstairs."

"Yes, master~"

Xiyu bowed, twisted her graceful waist, and swayed away.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

Ji Boying picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Tea without Hextech in this era does taste very good.

"The expedition to Japan that my brother just talked about in class, I don't know which general in our court does my brother think can be in command?"

After Lao Zhu finished speaking, he also took a sip of tea.

Hearing this, Ji Boying's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at Lao Zhu quietly, without answering his question at all.

And Lao Zhu was looked at by Ji Boying like this, and he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

"You're going to ask me this?"

"Lao Zhu, the reason why I left Tianque and came to Daming is not to come here to waste time with you when I am full of food and have nothing to do, but to help you strengthen the Ming Dynasty, to help you extend the Ming Dynasty, and make the Ming Dynasty a dynasty that shines through the ages."

As soon as these words came out, Lao Zhu suddenly felt a little ashamed.

Now it is still the early stage of Hongwu, the combat effectiveness of the army is especially there, the founding generals are still alive, Xu Da, Li Wenzhong and other famous generals are still in the prime of life, and the new generation of blue jade has also begun to show its edge.

Ji Boying doesn't know soldiers, even he knows this, and Zhu Yuanzhang, who knows the skills of these generals under his command and has fought all his life, can't be unclear.

Old Zhu paused and sighed.

"I am worried that I will take command of the expedition with a military general, and then build an immortal achievement, which will be difficult to control."

Ji Boying said lightly and directly said what Lao Zhu was thinking.

The expedition to Japan, once successful, was enough silver to make the Ming Dynasty quickly strong in the short term, and the merits of the people in command were bound to crown the Ming Dynasty, such as Xu Da, Li Wenzhong and others were already first-class dukes, and there was no seal.

"You originally wanted to take the prince as the commander, and the name will be the vice-president, so as to press this world-famous merit on the prince, but you think that it will be difficult for the future generations, and the prince will be in charge of the army and the tail will not be lost."

Lao Zhu took a deep breath.

"What we thought in our hearts was guessed by my brother."

"In addition, since I went back last night, we are still thinking about another thing, we originally wanted to replace the generals with the kings to control the military power, divide the kings, and conquer the Ming Dynasty, but after going to Jianwen, we feel that this method will mess up the Ming Dynasty, we tossed and turned all night last night, and we really can't think of any good way to solve it."

As he spoke, Lao Zhu stood up and bowed to Ji Boying.

"Please teach us, brother!"

Ji Boying raised his eyes and looked at Lao Zhu.

After real contact, he felt that this Ming Taizu was not quite the same as in the history, after the old Zhu in the history books was founded and ascended the throne, he basically never reflected, completely fixed himself, insisted on going his own way, and did not listen to persuasion at all, except for Queen Ma and Zhu Biao, who persuaded whom.

Maybe it's because Lao Zhu is still in the prime of life, and he hasn't lost his son, wife or grandson, and his spirit is quite normal, so after discovering the problem, he reflected on it in a timely manner.

After witnessing the martyrdom last night, Lao Zhu had already realized the serious consequences of using the kings in charge of the army.

"Sit down, one by one."

Ji Boying put down the teacup in his hand.

As far as the matter of extending the country is concerned, the Hongwu Dynasty is definitely the easiest to achieve, everything is at the head, as long as the head is opened, as long as the descendants of future generations are not all faint monarchs, the difficulty of guarding the country will be greatly reduced.

"The first thing, the expedition to Japan, who will lead the troops."

"My suggestion is."

Ji Boying looked at Lao Zhu calmly.

"The Son of Heaven is in charge, and the royal driver is in charge."

Lao Zhu's face changed suddenly...

"That brother, really, it's not that we're afraid of death."

"We're seasick...!"

Ji Boying glanced at Lao Zhu, why are you teasing me?

When Chen Youliang was doing Chen Youliang in Poyang Lake, the boat board was the happiest for your kid, so why didn't you faint?
