Demarcate pastoral areas and give them to different tribes so that they can all stay in their own pastoral areas.

If you go to someone else's pastoral area, you will naturally be opposed by other tribes.

There is no need for Daming to send troops, and the internal fight must be fought first.

The once nomadic tribes have become sedentary peoples, so are they still terrible?

When the Ming Dynasty sent troops on an expedition, could they still run away?

Moreover, this is a yang conspiracy.

Even if they see it, they can't refuse.

There is already strife on the grasslands.

The pastoral area itself can be used to kill three soldiers with two peaches!

The Ming Dynasty came forward to divide the pastoral area, which was naturally reluctant for the powerful tribes.

But the weak tribes can't ask for it.

They must stand on the side of the Ming Dynasty and support the Ming Dynasty.

It is equivalent to having allies by nature.

Supplemented by the suppression of the Ming army, the powerful tribe will be suppressed, and they will naturally have to obey.

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang thought a lot.

Originally, it was thought that it would take many years of hard work to pacify the Northern Yuan Dynasty and completely solve the hidden dangers of the grassland.

But if you follow Zhu Yunxi's strategy, it won't take many years to solve it.

And it's done once and for all, and there is no future trouble.

The divided pastoral areas have been passed down from generation to generation, and they are becoming more and more divided between each other, and there is no possibility of unification of the grassland, so they can only obey the orders of the Ming Dynasty.

Not only will the border troubles be eliminated forever, but the entire grassland will really be included in the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

With such a clever strategy, how did Zhu Yunxi come up with it as a child?

Zhu Yuanzhang's face turned on and on, and even his breathing became heavy.

Looking at Zhu Yunxi in his arms, he was a little incredulous.

Is this really an idea that a seven-year-old could come up with?

Born to know, how wise is almost a demon?

Why didn't you notice it before?

Zhu Yunxi obviously also noticed Lao Zhu's gaffe.

He secretly said in his heart: "Could it be that you are talking too much?" A little out of the woods? ”

He hurriedly spoke: "Grandpa Huang, what's wrong?" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang came back to his senses and regained his expression in an instant.

"Xi'er, are you done?"

"Hmm." Zhu Yunxi nodded, his face seemed a little embarrassed and said: "Grandpa Huang, these are my own foolish opinions, if there is something wrong, Grandpa Huang's face is not to blame." ”

After all, Zhu Yuanzhang is used to seeing strong winds and waves, and after a short period of shock, he has completely calmed down, thinking about how to implement what Zhu Yunxi said, but he still can't see the depth on the surface.

He shook his head with a smile, touched the back of Zhu Yunxi's head, and said, "No, Xi'er, you said it very well, and even the imperial grandfather didn't expect many things." ”

"Really?" Zhu Yunxi controlled his expression and looked proud.

"Really, Grandpa Huang never deceives." Zhu Yuanzhang laughed.

"Does that count as a little bit older?"

"Grown up! Grow up! Hahaha......" Zhu Yuanzhang laughed loudly, as if the haze had been swept away.

"Xi'er." Zhu Yuanzhang took off a piece of jade pendant from his waist and said: "This is given to you by the imperial grandfather, if you have any ideas in the future, you can boldly tell the imperial grandfather, even if you are wrong, the imperial grandfather will not blame you!" ”

"Thank you, Grandpa." Zhu Yunxi stretched out his hand to take the jade pendant, and as soon as he touched it, he felt a cool feeling, which was refreshing.

He held the jade pendant in his two small hands and looked at it carefully.

The jade pendant is not big, pure white and flawless, crystal clear.

It is only half the size of a palm and is a hollow circle.

The jade pendant was carved by a craftsman into a lifelike dragon.

Touching the jade pendant is like touching an entrenched dragon.

It's definitely not easy.

Zhu Yunxi likes it more and more, but he still has to be reserved.

"Grandpa Huang, this ...... It's too precious to ask for it. ”

"I'll give it to you!" Zhu Yuanzhang deliberately glared at him and said, "What are we afraid of for our grandson!" ”

"Got it." Zhu Yunxi said in a low voice.

"Well," Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction and said, "Do you like it?" ”

"I like it."

Zhu Yuanzhang's expression softened a little, and he said with a smile: "Xi'er, the imperial grandfather has assigned you a task, if you can complete it, the imperial grandfather will give you other gifts, how about it?" ”

Zhu Yunxi's heart moved slightly, and asked, "Grandpa Huang, what is the task?" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was happy and said, "Just now, didn't you tell the imperial grandfather about that...... That one...... Sweet potato, yes, sweet potato! ”

"Grandpa Huang wants you to find sweet potatoes, can you do it?"

Zhu Yuanzhang's tone seemed to be coaxing a child, but Zhu Yunxi vaguely felt that there seemed to be other meanings in Lao Zhu's words.

However, the matter of looking for sweet potatoes is ......

"Grandpa Huang, that sweet potato is just hearsay, and it's a little difficult to find it."

"Besides, that thing is overseas, and you have to send a ship to the sea to find it."

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said: "That's not necessarily, maybe a businessman brought it?" ”

"Just as the emperor's grandfather will test you, even if you can't find the sweet potato, you must find the source of the news, the merchant."

"Got it, Grandpa Huang, do your best."

Zhu Yunxi secretly complained in his heart, how can there be any source of news?

All this was known to him in later generations.

Zhu Yunxi blamed himself for talking too much, but he was making trouble for himself.

However, Lao Zhu's attitude is very subtle.

Letting a seven-year-old do this, it seems that there must be other plans.

As for where to find sweet potatoes?

It's good to take your time, there are people from overseas in Nanjing, maybe it's really as Lao Zhu said, so they will bring sweet potatoes.

It's getting late.

Overall, today's harvest was not bad.

At least Lao Zhu has changed his opinion of some people or things to a certain extent, and it is not in vain.

Moreover, I also know his attitude towards the cheap fourth uncle Zhu Di.

After saying goodbye to Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yunxi walked out of the garden alone.

I didn't walk far when I saw a little eunuch approaching him.

He didn't care.

When the eunuch saw the emperor and grandson coming, he hurriedly saluted, and Zhu Yunxi walked over.

Unexpectedly, when he walked to the side, he heard the little eunuch whisper: "Fourth Emperor Sun, His Royal Highness King Yan is invited." ”

Oh?

Cheap fourth uncle?

Zhu Yunxi's pupils shrank slightly.

Zhu Di invited himself over at this time, could it be that it was also for the purpose of establishing a prince?

To see, or not to see?

The elders invite each other, and the younger ones don't seem to be easy to refuse.

"Lead the way!" Zhu Yunxi said calmly.

……

followed the little eunuch around and around, and finally saw Zhu Di in the remote part of the garden.

This is a gazebo with a stone table in the middle of the pavilion with a pot of tea on it.

Zhu Di is sipping tea.

Beside him, stood a dignified monk dressed in black.

Zhu Yunxi immediately thought of a person - Dao Yan.

That is, the famous black-clothed prime minister in later generations.

This is a demon-minded man!

He remained silent, continued to behave like a child, and stepped forward to greet with a smile: "Hello Fourth Uncle!" ”

Zhu Di waved his hand and said boldly: "Xi'er is here, sit down!" ”

At this time, the black-clothed monk also stepped forward and saluted respectfully: "Poor monk Daoyan, I have seen the four emperors' grandsons. ”

Really!

This guy is Dao Yan.

Zhu Yunxi didn't show anything, but asked "curiously": "Fourth uncle, why are you still with a master?" ”

Zhu Di was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "This is a friend of the fourth uncle." ”

"Oh, that's it!" Zhu Yunxi nodded.

The moment he nodded, he saw Zhu Di and Dao Yan's eyes communicate briefly.

Zhu Di said with a smile: "Xi'er, since the fourth uncle came back, he didn't have time to go to the house to see you, don't be angry with the fourth uncle." ”

"How can it!" Zhu Yunxi immediately shook his head: "The fourth uncle is a person who does big things, and Xi'er won't be so ignorant." ”

The corners of Zhu Di's eyes twitched slightly, although it was very light, he still caught it.

"Where can I do anything big! You kid, really. Zhu Di waved his hand with a big grin.

Zhu Yunxi shook his head: "Anyway, I think the fourth uncle is the one who does great things, and I said the same thing to the imperial grandfather,"

"You kid!" Zhu Di shook his head helplessly, as if he suddenly remembered something, and pretended to be careless:

"By the way, I heard that your imperial grandfather asked you about the establishment of the crown prince?"

The speech is flat, the voice is not loud, and it seems to be gossiping without caring at first glance.

But when it fell on Zhu Yunxi's ears, it was like thunder.
