Day 2.

Jiang Zhen came with eleven people.

These eleven people are all good players carefully selected by him in the brocade guard, and they are the kind of people who don't talk much.

After taking off their flying fish suits, they all changed into the clothes of domestic servants.

"I've seen the young master!"

Jiang Zheng respectfully bowed his hand to Huang Xiongying, and then said to the eleven people behind him: "From now on, the young master will be your master, come and see the master!" ”

"I've seen my master!"

Eleven people hurriedly shouted in unison respectfully.

"Louder!"

Jiang Zhen roared.

"I've seen my master!"

Eleven people roared with vigour, resounding throughout the courtyard.

Huang Xiongying looked at these eleven roaring men, the more he looked at them, the more satisfied he became, in addition to being extremely respectful to himself, they were all very strong, and he could faintly see that they were practicing his family.

The old man is really not simple, and he found eleven good players for himself at once.

Huang Xiongying said with satisfaction: "Yes, let's start introducing myself!" ”

"Subordinate Shandong clan, Lu Jianfei!"

"Subordinate Taiyuan people's clan, Shen Ao!"

"Subordinate Shandong people's clan, Pei Chuan!"

“……”

Huang Xiongying listened to them yelling at their homes one by one, but she was slightly surprised in her heart, good guys, your names are not like the names of any house slaves, they are even more protagonists than their own names.

"Very good, very energetic!"

Huang Xiongying nodded and said solemnly: "Listen to the order, run around Jubao Mountain three times, and then return here to concentrate!" ”

The eleven people were stunned, looked at each other, and then scrambled to run.

It didn't take long.

Eleven people ran back, and all of them looked relaxed.

Huang Xiongying's heart was slight, these eleven people were more powerful than he imagined.

"Very good, I can see that you all have some foundation."

Huang Xiongying glanced at it, then raised three fingers, and said loudly: "I only have three requirements for you, be obedient, be obedient, and be fucking obedient!" ”

Because the most important thing in Mandarin Duck Town is to cooperate as a whole, and the order is prohibited.

It is not how high the force of an individual is, but it is necessary to pay attention to the clear division of labor and proper coordination of various weapons, and everyone only needs to be proficient in the operation of their own kind of weapons.

"Yes! Master! ”

The eleven squad shouted in unison.

Huang Xiongying pointed to the person who ran back first and said, "You, Lu Jianfei, as the team leader!" ”

"You, Shen Ao, Pei Chuan, you are the shield bearer......"

Huang Xiongying arranged corresponding positions in the formation for each of the eleven people, and then looked at Lao Xu: "Lao Xu, distribute the weapons to them!" ”

"Yes, young master!"

After Lao Xu received the order, he distributed the prepared weapons to eleven people.

Training has officially begun......

……

In the Fengtian Palace, Zhu Yuanzhang, who had just finished meeting his ministers, was holding a cup of strong tea, blowing and drinking it, the weather began to get a little cooler, and he was occasionally a little sleepy when he was old.

"Your Majesty, the person has been sent to His Highness!" Jiang Zhen entered the palace to resume his life.

"Got it."

Zhu Yuanzhang put down the teacup, moved his shoulders, and asked, "Is our eldest grandson still satisfied?" ”

"Your Highness is very satisfied!"

Jiang Zhen replied respectfully: "Your Highness has already begun to train with them, and Your Highness said that there are only three requirements for them. ”

"Oh?"

Zhu Yuanzhang showed a curious look and said, "What are the three requirements?" Tell me about it! ”

Jiang Zhen replied: "Your Highness's three requirements are, be obedient, be obedient, and return ...... Fucking obedient! ”

"Hey, this stinky boy still looks good when he trains to fight!"

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his eyebrows, a smile appeared on his face unconsciously, and then waved his hand to Jiang Zhen and said, "You should step back first." ”

"Yes."

Jiang Zhen gave up his hand to receive the order, and did not forget to peek at the face of the superior before retreating.

As soon as Jiang Zhen left, Gonggong An walked in lightly, came to Zhu Yuanzhang's side, and said softly: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Qi has returned to Jingshi, just outside." ”

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang's face sank suddenly.

"Hmmm......"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, took a copy from the pile of compromises on the imperial case, flipped through it, and did not continue to say anything.

Father-in-law An is similar to a person, so he naturally knows the meaning of the superior.

It is to let the king of Qi wait outside the palace first......

Outside the hall, King Qi waited for a while, and the more he waited, the more anxious he became.

From the moment he learned that the old emperor had summoned him to Beijing, he began to be apprehensive.

I'm afraid the old man already knows what he did in Qingzhou.

When he was in Qingzhou, he didn't know how to be afraid, but when he entered the Jingshi and came to this Fengtian Palace, his heart began to beat wildly.

You must know that on the third day of April last year, his younger brother Zhu Zi, the king of Tan, was summoned by the old man because his princess was involved in Hu Weiyong's affairs, and his younger brother Zhu Zi was so frightened that he and the princess set himself on fire and died.

Now that the eunuch has been in for almost half an hour, and no one has come out to spread the word, I am afraid that the old man is very angry.

The old man was angry, there are only two people in this world who can stop him.

One is Queen Ma, and the other is Prince Zhu Biao.

It's a pity that these two people have already left, and now the old man's anger is like a bright knife, and there is nothing to hide.

Last year, the second brother King Qin was also recalled to Beijing because of his misdeeds in the vassal country, and if it wasn't for the persuasion of the crown prince Zhu Biao, King Qin would have almost been slaughtered by the old man on the spot.

Even if he is not slaughtered, the position of the vassal king will not be guaranteed.

Now how similar is his situation to King Qin, the only difference is that there is no one who can stand up to persuade him.

At this time, he can't wait to give himself a few mouths, these profiteers usually pay tribute to themselves with money and things, but once something happens to his mother, he will push it on his head.

Besides, these people who killed a thousand knives were all killed by the old man, and I am afraid that before he died, he didn't know how many basins were detained on his head.

This time, he is afraid that he will not be able to rely on the affairs of the disaster area.

The more King Qi thought about it, the bigger his head became, the more he thought about it, the more scared he became, and the iron armor on his body pressed his waist sore, but he didn't dare to move at all, because he knew that the old man was like having heavenly eyes, and he could see it.

Just when King Qi was sweating and was about to hold on, a shrill voice finally sounded: "His Royal Highness King Qi, Your Majesty will let you in!" ”

"Whew-"

King Qi finally breathed a long sigh of relief, sorted out his battle armor, and then took a deep breath before entering the hall.

"Son, meet my father!"

After entering the hall, Zhu Yu walked in front of the old man and bowed down to greet him.

"Get on your knees."

A faint but unquestionable voice came from behind the imperial case above.

Zhu Rong didn't hesitate for a moment, then picked up his battle armor, knelt directly on his knees, and lowered his head.

Long.

The voice behind the royal case sounded again.

"These days, we haven't slept well, because these days, we have been thinking about one thing, is it right or wrong for us to give you the title of king?"

Zhu Yu didn't dare to speak, but only dared to listen quietly.

Zhu Yuanzhang continued: "Zhu Rong, you are now grown up and are kings, but do you know what a king is? ”

Zhu Yu hurriedly said: "Please teach my father!" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang's voice suddenly became cold: "What kind of teaching?" In the third year of Hongwu, you will be crowned king, and you have been the king for twenty-two years, even if you are a pig, you should know, say, what is a king! ”

Zhu Yu's forehead began to sweat, his brain was a mess, and he instinctively bowed deeply: "Child...... I really don't know, please teach my father! ”

"Huh-"

Zhu Yuanzhang chuckled lightly and said, "Okay, then we'll teach you again!" The king is actually very simple, three horizontal and one vertical, the upper one is horizontal, representing the sky, the lower one is horizontal, representing the earth, and the middle one is the one in the middle representing the people between heaven and earth, and the king is the vertical in the middle! ”

"The vertical in the middle, it stands up to the sky and the earth, ruling the common people, this is the king, understand?!"

Zhu Yan hurriedly said: "Understood, Erchen understood!" ”

"You know!"

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly, and his tone began to become heavy: "If you really understand, you won't do those pickled things in the feudal country!" ”

Where did Zhu Yu dare to argue, and hurriedly kowtowed: "Erchen knows that he is wrong, Erchen knows that he is wrong......"

Looking at Zhu Yu, who burst into tears, Zhu Yuanzhang sighed lightly: "Sometimes, we are thinking, it would be good if you babies grew up in ordinary people's homes, so as not to step on the blade every day, and if you are not careful, you will cut yourself into blood." ”

"I beg my father to forgive my son this time, and my son will never dare again! After the retainers go back, they must be a king who stands up to the heavens and the earth and rules the common people! ”

Zhu Rong was completely panicked, Zhu Yuanzhang's meaning in and out of his words already had the intention of demoting him to a commoner.

Zhu Yuanzhang stared at Zhu Rong and asked, "Do you know where you come from, the king?" ”

Zhu Yu hurriedly replied: "Yes...... It was given by the people, right...... Water can carry a boat and it can capsize a boat, and without them, there would be no kings like us! ”

"Wrong!"

Zhu Yuanzhang sneered and said, "You kings, we gave it!" We give it to you, you are the king, if we don't give it to you, you are nothing! ”

"Sons should die!"

Zhu Yu gave himself two mouths: "The mother concubine has a son, please give the son another chance when the mother concubine has served you for many years!" ”

Zhu Yu crawled forward to the imperial case, crying bitterly.

He was afraid, afraid that the old man would really take back his position as vassal king,

People, once you are accustomed to being in a high position and have tasted the taste of power, and want to let him fall to the bottom and become a commoner, this kind of pain of falling from a high place is more uncomfortable than killing him.

"Humph!"

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly: "If it weren't for Concubine Dading's sake, we would have handed you over to the Zongren Mansion a long time ago!" ”

Hearing this, Zhu Rong was stunned, and immediately hurriedly kowtowed: "Thank you, father!" ”

"Don't rush to thank us!"

Zhu Yuanzhang's faint voice sounded: "You are extremely evil this time, if it weren't for our eldest grandson to take out a divine object such as a mirror and make suggestions to make the disaster pass smoothly, you wouldn't be able to cut off ten heads!" ”

The eldest grandson?

Zhu Yu was stunned again, the emperor's grandson Zhu Yunwen?

Just thinking about it, I heard Zhu Yuanzhang continue: "We can keep your position as the vassal king, but we want you to do one thing." ”

"Erchen goes to the soup and fights the fire, and he will not give up!"

When Zhu Yu heard that he could keep the throne, he hurriedly kowtowed to show his loyalty.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, and said solemnly: "We ordered you to be the general of the Kou Suppression, and I want you to take your Qingzhou soldiers to the coast to suppress the Kou, but all the grain and grass and military supplies, you Zhu Rong will find a way by yourself, remember, you must not scrape the people's fat and ointment, and you must not harass the people, otherwise we will not spare it!" ”

"This ......"

Zhu Yu instinctively hesitated for a moment, didn't wait for the old man to speak again, and hurriedly said, "Erchen takes orders!" ”

In order to keep the throne, Zhu Rong went out, and the imperial court did not provide grain, grass and military supplies, I am afraid that the wealth he has accumulated over the years will be exhausted.

And he has been in Qingzhou all the year round, so of course he knows how difficult it is to deal with the Japanese invaders.

The imperial court has set up 16 cities on the sea in the vicinity of Fujian, increased the inspection department by 45, and killed more than 15,000 people.

The number of troops invested is in the tens of thousands.

However, it still could not completely eliminate the problem of the Japanese pirates, and sometimes they were even attacked by a small team of nimble and fierce Japanese pirates, which made the coastal defense army miserable.

Now let yourself send troops to fund the suppression of the Kou, this is a big chore!

How can I make a mistake in the feudal country, I can't agree if I want to, no matter what, it's better than being demoted to a concubine.

Looking at Zhu Rong, who had a bitter face, Zhu Yuanzhang snorted lightly and said, "If it weren't for our eldest grandson to help you speak, you wouldn't have been able to take advantage of this opportunity, don't know how to cherish it!" ”

Is it the emperor's grandson Zhu Yunwen again?

Zhu Yun was slightly stunned, when he was a vassal himself, the emperor's grandson Zhu Yunwen was still a child, and over the years, he basically had no contact with Zhu Yunwen, why would Zhu Yunwen help him speak this time?

And looking at the old man's meaning, it seems that the old man trusts this eldest grandson quite a bit.

Could it be ......

The emperor's grandson Zhu Yunwen wants to be the grandson?

Thinking of this, Zhu Yu's heart was shocked, but he replied quietly on his face: "Erchen understands!" ”

"No, you don't understand!"

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head, and then said: "If Ming'er has time, let's take you to meet our eldest grandson!" ”
