Palace.

Zhu Yunxi waited under the red wall early, and outside the palace gate, a grand car arrived.

In the carriage, an old, wrinkled hand lifted the curtain.

It was none other than Lao Zhu who had returned from Yangshan, but now Lao Zhu is still the emperor in name, but in fact he looks like a retired emperor.

Every day, he watered the vegetables he planted, raised flowers, fished, and hunted.

Life is very leisurely.

There is no need for him to worry about the major affairs of the DPRK and China, which makes Lao Zhu's originally tired body get some relief.

He looks a little more energetic.

His face was flushed, his body was much tougher, and when he got off the carriage, he even felt that Lao Zhu still had a little strength to spare, and he didn't feel the slightest bit of weakness.

Zhu Yunxi was naturally very happy to see this.

Hurriedly walked over and arched his hand: "Grandpa Huang." ”

Lao Zhu also nodded with a smile, first looked at the surrounding big battle, and waved his hand to retreat.

The grandfather and grandson scattered in this palace.

Then Fang Cai said: "Xi'er, what is the matter with calling the imperial grandfather back this time?" ”

"What's so good about this Jinling Eighteen Squares?"

It's not that Lao Zhu hasn't been to the Eighteen Fangs of Jinling, you know, this Eighteen Fangs of Jinling was built by Lao Zhu's order, and it was not long ago.

Although many changes have taken place in the hands of Zhu Yunxi.

But no matter how much it changes, where can it change?

"On the contrary, it is a great victory in the Battle of Mobei, which is worth celebrating, in order to comfort the souls of countless Ming soldiers in the sky."

"That they may rest in peace."

"Over the years, there have been more than ten battles between our Ming Dynasty and the Northern Yuan, and there have been many sacrifices."

"Every time we think about it, we always feel bad in our hearts."

Lao Zhu still remembered the affairs of the Northern Yuan Dynasty in his heart, and he didn't pay much attention to the affairs of the Eighteen Fangs of Jinling.

Even because of technological innovation, it has given Daming a new look.

But the limitations of the times and the solidification of ideas still make Lao Zhu unable to change his thinking for a while, after all, for the elderly, it often takes a certain amount of courage to accept new things.

It takes a lot of effort.

It's not about wisdom, it's about age.

Zhu Yunxi was naturally able to understand Lao Zhu's thoughts, and immediately said, "Grandpa Huang, don't worry. ”

"My grandson has built a monument outside the Beijing Division for these soldiers who died fighting against the Northern Yuan."

"To comfort the souls of countless Ming soldiers!"

"Let future generations remember the difficulties of the founding of the Ming Dynasty and cherish the hard-won peaceful life in the world."

After hearing this, Lao Zhu was naturally very satisfied.

nodded again and again: "Not bad!" That's a great idea! ”

"It's better that you have more ideas."

"In the future, I can do more of these things, but it is effortless, but it can reflect my Ming Dynasty's care for the soldiers."

"By the way, I heard that the envoy of the Northern Yuan Dynasty is visiting the Eighteen Fangs of Jinling?"

"Although Grandpa Huang doesn't know much about your technical research and manufacturing bureau, he also knows that there are many secrets in it."

"It's where the essence of my Daming is."

"You're so relieved to let him in and visit?"

Zhu Yunxi nodded.

Of course, he knew that there were too many secrets of the Ming Dynasty in the Eighteen Fangs of Jinling, but Zhu Yunxi was not worried that the other party would steal the school.

After all, many things need complete supporting facilities.

Not to mention anything else, the output of steel alone, Beiyuan did not meet the conditions for the production of weapons such as muskets.

Even the current Ming Dynasty is in short supply.

All departments are desperately fighting for a little share of steel, that is, after the expansion of Jinling's eighteen squares and the increase in production in various places, they are relieved.

And Zhu Yunxi is not afraid of the other party stealing.

Regarding the fact that Beiyuan wants to send craftsmen over, Zhu Yunxi can't ask for it.

You must know that when the Northern Yuan Dynasty retreated, it did not go through too much turmoil, and many people went north and went to the depths of the desert, among which there were many skilled craftsmen in the Yuan Dynasty.

The craftsmanship of these people has been inherited since the Song Dynasty.

In terms of ability, it may not be worse than the craftsmanship of the craftsmen of the Ming Dynasty, and it may even be better!

After all, the Yuan Dynasty was a special node for Huaxia.

Prior to this, Huaxia's scientific and technological level was very developed, and the level of mathematics was also very developed, far ahead of its contemporaries.

But after the Yuan Dynasty, it came to the Ming Dynasty.

But suddenly a lot of technology was lost, and the level of mathematics fell by hundreds of years!

Speaking of which, although the Song Dynasty was militarily weak and incompetent, its economic, cultural, and technological development was brilliant.

If there are craftsmen from the Yuan Dynasty to come down.

Zhu Yunxi naturally couldn't ask for it, after all, this is equivalent to working for Daqing!

And as long as these people get used to the Ming Jingshi, they will not be able to leave if they are driven away at that time!

Zhu Yunxi slowly explained: "Grandpa Huang can rest assured. ”

"Daming's technology is changing with each passing day, even if they learn it, what if they learn it?"

"There's nothing to worry about at all."

"And our Daming's technology is not so easy to learn, outside the battlefield, it is the real battlefield of my Daming!"

Zhu Yunxi's dealings with these small countries and the Northern Yuan Dynasty have always been heart-to-heart.

War is only a last resort.

As long as it binds the economic lifeline of a country, what the Ming Dynasty asks them to do when the time comes, isn't it what they do?

Don't dare to resist at all.

Unless these countries want to make their own rebellion, but is this possible?

After completing the deep binding, opposing the Ming Dynasty is not the same as opposing yourself?

After all that is said.

Zhu Yunxi said again: "Grandpa Huang, please come to the palace today, there is a new thing for you to see." ”

"The name of this thing is ......"

But he didn't wait for Zhu Yunxi to finish speaking.

Several figures walked over from far and near, and Zhu Yunxi looked sideways, it was Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and the three sons of the king of Yan!

Boss Zhu Gaochi!

The second Zhu Gaoxu!

The third Zhu Gaosui!

"Huh? Fourth, why are you back? ”

Lao Zhu looked over with some puzzlement.

Although the overall situation of the Northern Yuan battlefield has been decided, it stands to reason that Zhu Di should also stay in the north.

"Grandpa Huang, it was the grandson who asked the fourth uncle to come back."

Zhu Yunxi on the side explained.

The new army commanded by Zhu Di is the force he trusts the most, so naturally he doesn't dare to let the new army stay too far away from him, let alone let the new army stay in Zhu Di's hands for too long.

So after the situation was determined, Zhu Yunxi immediately summoned Zhu Di back.

Lao Zhu listened to Zhu Yunxi's explanation and suddenly realized.

immediately praised: "Fourth, this Northern Expedition did not lose the face of our old Zhu family. ”

"I also live up to Xi'er's trust in you."

"If your kid loses this time, even if we are reluctant, we have to kill our relatives and slaughter you!"

Zhu Di saw Lao Zhu, who praised everyone with a straight face, and smiled bitterly.

I don't know if I've been beaten too much since I was a child.

Zhu Di saw that Lao Zhu had a psychological shadow, and couldn't help but tremble, obviously he was mighty, but he looked a little childish.

"Haha, don't scare the fourth uncle with the imperial grandfather."

"Let's look at what I'm talking about."

Zhu Yunxi hurriedly changed the topic, and Zhu Di immediately cast a grateful look.

For Lao Zhu.

He was really afraid!

It's not just that I'm afraid now, even if I become an emperor, I'm still afraid in my bones!

I'm afraid that if I go underground, I will meet Lao Zhu.

Hung up and beaten!
