Chapter 118: It's the spring equinox, it's time to cut the domain
Daming, Ying Tianfu.
After a long journey of more than a month, Zhu Di, now 20 years old, returned to Beijing.
Before he saw the city gate, when the ships docked, he saw a large number of servants busy digging on the bank of the river in the distance, and many large boats on the river, docked on the shore, and the shirtless slender men shouted slogans and dragged huge logs from the boats to the shore.
"Let someone ask, what is it going on over there?"
Zhu Di instructed his subordinates.
After a short time, the guards came back to tell the news that the Longjiang Shipyard was being newly built.
"You don't need that much wood in a shipyard." Zhu Di looked at it from a distance and estimated that it was at least the amount of wood used in five shipyards.
"Your Highness, have you forgotten?"
Zhu Liang, deputy of Yanshan's guard, reminded him on the side: "Your Majesty has established the Navy Governor's Mansion to control the world's naval divisions, so that all the coastal guards and skilled craftsmen will rush to Yingtianfu to build new warships in a unified manner." ”
Only then did Zhu Di remember.
It's no wonder that he didn't think about it, but during this time, there was an endless stream of news from Ying Tianfu, from binding his feet to abolishing the prime minister system, and urgently calling him back from Beiping, and then there were rumors that His Majesty took out the map of the Ming Dynasty during the Great Dynasty and so on.
All kinds of news are gathered, and they all point to one person's name:
Chu Zhenren.
It is also known as the true monarch of the Ming Dynasty who protects the country.
When he heard about this person's deeds for the first time, Zhu Di was puzzled, wondering if his father was bewitched.
After that, the more he listened to Chu Zhenren's affairs, the more frightened he became.
What winter lychee to reward the concubines, three good strategies to save the prime minister, see through thousands of miles at a glance, etc.
The more it spreads, the more outrageous it becomes.
Zhu Di had to order the team to speed up the march, brave the cold wind, and returned to Yingtianfu in just over a month.
……
Forbidden city.
"Get on your knees!!"
Zhu Di ignored the fatigue of the journey and the wind and cold along the way, and after settling down in the Yanwang Mansion, he immediately entered the palace to meet his father.
Who knows, as soon as he saw his father, he was ordered to kneel.
And he shouted at him with a loud voice, kneel!
"Father, I!"
Zhu Di was confused, his face was full of grievances, and he wanted to justify!
But Zhu Yuanzhang ordered him word by word:
"I told you, get on your knees!!"
The suppressed voice of anger and killing intent made Zhu Di's whole body cold, and as soon as his knees weakened, he knelt on the cold floor.
With his head down, he couldn't say a word.
Little by little, time passed.
In the Huagai Palace, the ministers went in and out, and everyone saw the situation of King Yan kneeling on the ground, and everyone didn't dare to ask, and even the voice was much quieter.
I don't know how long it has been, a voice came: "Fourth brother, get up quickly, the ground is cold." ”
His eldest brother wanted to pick him up.
But Zhu Di didn't dare to stand, even if he broke his knees today, he didn't dare to stand up.
For the first time in his life, he felt the killing intent from his father.
It chilled him.
Zhu Biao pulled him up, asked the eunuch to carry the fire plate, and helped him to a leather seat.
Zhu Di didn't dare to sit.
The ministers had all withdrawn, leaving only a few eunuchs, as well as a father and son.
"Get on your knees."
Zhu Yuanzhang's tone was flat.
Zhu Di knelt down again and kowtowed to plead guilty.
"It's not about me, it's about your big brother."
The indifferent voice came from the mouth of his father, and Zhu Di knelt facing Zhu Biao again, kowtowing again.
Although he still didn't understand why.
"Father, why is that?!"
Zhu Biao helped the fourth brother and shouted to his father eagerly.
The eunuchs all lowered their heads, and they didn't dare to gasp or look at their breath.
"Let him kneel."
Zhu Yuanzhang gave the order to die, and he didn't look at Zhu Di.
In desperation, Zhu Biao also knelt down and pleaded guilty.
"Bingbi Eunuch" Ding Wen saw that the situation was not good, and quietly walked out of the palace, asking people to hurry to Kunning Palace to inform the queen.

After a while, Queen Ma arrived in a hurry.
"What is this doing?!"
Queen Ma felt sorry for her two sons and went to help them up in person, but Zhu Di didn't dare to get up, and Zhu Biao also knelt stubbornly, begging his father to forgive the fourth brother's mistakes.
If any.
Queen Ma looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and saw that he was unmoved, so she couldn't help but get annoyed, and said, "Get up, don't kneel to your unreasonable father!" ”
"A good son came back from Beiping Mansion in the wind and snow, and he came to see his father without drinking a bowl of ginger soup, but this person didn't talk about it at all!"
"Get up, don't kneel!"
Queen Ma gave orders to her two sons.
Zhu Biao, who was in a dilemma, could only stand up.
Zhu Di was still kneeling facing Zhu Biao and Queen Ma.
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't say a word.
Queen Ma looked at him for a long time, only to realize that something was wrong, her husband was not angry for no reason, and this time the anger was the kind that could not be vented.
Her tone softened: "After what happens, I will make it clear that my son is at fault, and if he is a father, he will beat and scold him and let him change his ways." ”
Zhu Di knelt with his head down, not hearing any words from his father, but he was more miserable than before, and he couldn't help crying, and kowtowed to Zhu Yuanzhang again to ask for guilt.
"I'll take my son away first, so as not to freeze my knees."
Queen Ma helped Zhu Di up.
Seeing that his father still didn't say a word, Zhu Di slowly got up.
"Who raised you?"
Zhu Yuanzhang asked suddenly.
Zhu Di knelt down again and replied respectfully: "It's my father and mother." ”
"Who taught you?"
"It's my parents and my brother!"
Zhu Yuanzhang stared at him for a long time before he scolded: "Just remember, go back and reflect on it, remember today!" ”
Zhu Di kowtowed again, and with the support of his eldest brother, he limped out of the Huagai Palace.
Queen Ma sent them away, turned back again, and saw Zhu Yuanzhang sitting on the sofa brought back from Chu Zhenren, with his eyes closed and recuperating.
Queen Ma sat down, rubbed her husband's forehead, and said softly: "I read Chu Zhenren's medical book that says that anger and anger will cause high blood pressure, and it is not good for your health, so don't be angry." ”
Zhu Yuanzhang held her hand tightly, closed his eyes, and spoke after a while: "He should kneel no matter what he does today!" Not only kneel to his father and me, but also kneel ——! ”
Queen Ma felt his hands tremble.
After a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang opened his eyes and scolded in a low voice: "That turtle will rebel in the future!" ”
Queen Ma guessed from "Zhu Qizhen".
I had to persuade him: "Now that the fourth child is doing well, don't blame him." ”
"He should kneel!"
Zhu Yuanzhang repeated, "Whether as a courtier, as a younger brother, or as a son, he has to kneel!" ”
Queen Ma didn't know whether to cry or laugh for a while, so she had to sigh with him in a low voice and said, "Don't be too angry, this throne is just like something, look at Li Yuan of the Tang Dynasty." ”
"He dares to treat me as Li Yuan?!!"
"That's Li Shimin."
Queen Ma persuaded: "You have been to Chu Zhenren several times, you have chatted with Li Shimin, and you also know about Xuanwumen, did Li Shimin want to usurp the throne from the beginning?" ”
She really didn't know how to persuade her, so she could only cite Li Shimin as an example.
The Zhu family has the world, what can't the descendants do for that throne?
It is written in the history books of all dynasties.
"I know."
Zhu Yuanzhang calmed down a lot.
It's not all the fault of the fourth child, but as soon as he thought that after the fourth child rebelled and became the emperor, the Biao'er family would definitely be the same as Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji's family, and they could only be ruthlessly killed, so he became angry.
has nothing to do with brotherhood, Zhu Di rebelled, either he died, or Zhu Biao died in one vein.
He laughed at Li Shimin, didn't he laugh at himself?
"There are ten days left before the equinox."
Zhu Yuanzhang looked outside and made a decision: "Tomorrow morning, the official cutting of the domain!" ”
Queen Ma burst out laughing.
She couldn't think of any relationship between this, could it be that the sea was banned on the day of the spring equinox?
Or after the spring equinox, just wait for the weather to warm up and prepare to plant potatoes and corn?
But the reduction of the feudal domain is indeed a foregone conclusion.
Well.
Chu Zhenren's chair is really good, but it's a pity that he can only take a few back at a time, and he doesn't have more to give to the harem concubines or little princesses.
