Chapter 35 New Listener of the Edict: Liu Bowen

Following.

The temple of the body.

Zhu Yuanzhang and his son went down to the early dynasty and came here to change their clothes.

At this moment, the personal eunuch Liu He came to report, and Liu Bowen, the sincere uncle, was waiting outside the palace.

"Liu Bowen?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned, he was not sick in bed, and he couldn't go to court? Why did you come to the door today?

"Xuan Liu Bowen is here!"

After a while, I saw Liu Bowen walking in with a crutch in his hand.

"Minister Liu Bowen see Your Majesty."

"See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Excuse me!"

Seeing that Liu Bowen was about to kneel, Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Zhu Biao, and Zhu Biao hurriedly stepped forward to support Liu Bowen.

"Mr. Liu, you are not in good health, why are you here? You may be seated. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang waited for Liu Bowen to sit down, and said with interest:

"Berwyn, I guess you didn't come to see us, you came to see someone, right?"

Liu Bowen saw that the emperor had guessed through his thoughts, and he didn't hide it:

"Your Majesty, since Your Majesty showed the minister that policy in the palace, we have been bent on meeting this person, and we hope that Your Majesty will approve it."

Zhu Yuanzhang stroked his beard and laughed:

"I know that you Liu Bowen, you must be itchy when you see that policy, what else is ink, let's go to prison now."

"The boss has a soft car for Uncle Chengyi."

"No!"

Zhu Biao agreed, and the three of them got up and went to the edict.

……

Edict of Prison.

As the time for the Autumn Queen was approaching, Lin Che seemed a little excited.

I can go back to my previous life, see my parents and family, and live my own petty bourgeois life.

You can still play with your phone when you have nothing to do, and life is not as monotonous and boring as here.

As always, it was feeding time.

The warden invited him into Zhu Fan's luxurious prison cell.

As soon as Lin Che sat down, after a while, the jailer brought a sumptuous meal.

Lin Che's favorite Yingtianfu charcoal barbecue duck is of course indispensable.

Zhu Fan took out a jar of old wine sealed with mud in the corner of the wall and boasted:

"Mr. Lin, you have a good mouth, this is a hundred-year-old wine that I spent a lot of effort to get from outside."

"It's rare to drink even outside."

"You must have fun today!"

As he spoke, he patted off the mud seal and poured a full light for Lin Che.

Lin Che sniffed, this stunned young man didn't brag, it was really good wine.

The smell of wine was overflowing, and the whole cell was filled with the smell of wine.

Lin Che picked up the wine cup, took a sip, the aroma of the wine was entwined in his mouth, and he couldn't help but praise: "Good wine!" ”

Next door.

Zhu Yuanzhang's nose was almost crooked.

When he sent Zhu Fan back to the imperial prison, he specially instructed the guards not to treat the second prince specially.

These people took his words as a deaf ear.

Not only is it delicious and delicious, but it also brought the wine from the palace.

Zhu Yuanzhang glared at Zhu Biao fiercely, if it weren't for Liu Bowen beside him, he would have whipped him with a jade belt.

Zhu Biao looked at Lao Zhu innocently, and his eyes were saying, Dad, we are wronged!

Lao Zhu turned his head to look at Liu Bowen and saw that the other party had a look of gloom.

Suddenly, there was nowhere to go, and he said indignantly:

"This evil obstacle!"

Fortunately, at this time, a question and answer came from the opposite side, which attracted the attention of the three people.

"Mr. Lin, what are we talking about today?"

Zhu Fan finished pouring the wine and asked impatiently.

As the time for Lin Che to behead approached, Zhu Fan felt more and more that time and life were precious.

Lin Che, a peerless talent, was beheaded like this, it was really a waste.

I don't know if the queen mother and eldest brother have said that they will move their father.

Lin Che took a sip of wine lightly, squinted his eyes and said:

"I'm running out of time, and before I leave, I've got to tell you something practical."

"Today, let's not talk about the maladministration of the Ming Dynasty, let's pick up the knowledge you are familiar with."

"What are we familiar with?"

Zhu Fan was a little confused, what is the knowledge he is familiar with, dancing knives and guns?

"Didn't you keep clamoring to go on the Northern Expedition with the Great General?"

Looking at Zhu Fan with a blank face, Lin Che smiled and said:

"Then tell me, who is the biggest threat to the northern border of the Ming Dynasty?"

Hearing this, Zhu Fan said almost without thinking:

"Of course, it's the remnants of the Northern Yuan."

This time, the imperial court was ready to send the general Xu Da, and the target of the crusade was the Northern Yuan Yu Er Buhua Department.

Although the Ming Dynasty made several northern expeditions, the Northern Yuan Dynasty fled from the wind.

But the royal court of the Northern Yuan Dynasty is still there, and there are still tens of thousands of Mongolian iron horsemen in Mobei.

After the death of Wang Baobao, a famous general of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, the Northern Yuan Dynasty only had the ability to wrestle with the Ming Dynasty.

Taking advantage of the slight relaxation of the Ming Dynasty, these Mongols repeatedly attacked the northern border towns in the south.

My father was often worried that he could not exterminate the remnants of the Northern Yuan in one fell swoop.

However, Lin Che shook his head while holding the wine bowl:

"I said that you are clamoring to participate in the Northern Expedition every day, but you don't even know the biggest threat to the Ming Dynasty."

"It's a fart!"

Lin Che gulped and drank the wine in the bowl dry, and rolled his eyes at Zhu Zhang.

"Isn't it the North Yuan Nell Buhua Department? Could it be Liaodong Naha's exit? ”

Zhu Fan hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively.

Zhu Yuanzhang next door also had the same idea.

The Northern Yuan is in the north and northeast, and there are two major remnants.

One is the only remaining elite in the hands of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, and Nell does not spend tens of thousands of people.

The other is the Naha subordinate of the Northern Yuan who controls Liaodong, with 200,000 soldiers and horses.

However, Naha's exit has long been submissive.

Previously, Naha sent an envoy to contact Fu Youde, the general of the Ming border army.

Shows that he is willing to submit to the Ming Dynasty.

This time, Zhu Yuanzhang sent Xu Da to the north to attack the Nerbuhua Department, and by the way, he appeased the Naha Department who controlled Liaodong.

However, Lin Che still shook his head.

Not only was Zhu Fan dumbfounded, but even Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao were stunned!

They really couldn't figure out who else in the north could threaten the Ming Dynasty besides these two forces.

Seeing Zhu Fan looking at himself stunned, Lin Che poured him a bowl of wine and reminded:

"You're saying the right direction, but not the right person?"

"The direction is right."

Zhu Fan chewed Lin Che's words in his mouth, and said blankly:

"In Liaodong, apart from Naha, which other force can threaten the Ming Dynasty?"

In fact, Zhu Fan knew that in the Liaodong region, there was also a small affiliated country of Goryeo.

It's just that the strength of this small vassal state is too weak, and it has been controlled by the Northern Yuan royal court before.

Don't say that he threatens Da Ming, but if he is a little careful about Da Ming, Da Ming Tieqi can destroy him in minutes.

Zhu Fan didn't think that the Goryeo Kingdom could threaten the frontier of the Ming Dynasty at all.

Seeing that Zhu Fan was at a loss, Lin Che dipped some wine in the wine bowl with his fingers and wrote two words on the table.

"Jurchen!"

Zhu Fan stood up, looked at these two words, and couldn't help but exclaim.

Next door.

Zhu Yuanzhang and the three of them heard these two words clearly through the listening urn.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked suspicious.

He knew that since the Jurchen Jin Kingdom was destroyed by the Mongols, the Jurchens were almost wiped out.

The remaining Jurchens were driven by the Mongols into the primeval forests of the extremely cold land of Liaodong and lived an almost primitive life.

Now not to mention war, even survival is a problem.

What's more, now that Liaodong is still under the control of the Mongol Nahachu, it is difficult for these Jurchens to get out of the primeval forest.

Is this Lin Che making too much of a fuss.

However.

Liu Bowen, who had been sitting in a chair with his eyes closed, opened his eyes with a shocked face.

As early as Lin Che said that the real rival of the Ming Dynasty was in Liaodong, he had already vaguely guessed it in his heart.

Although the Jin State was destroyed for more than 200 years, the 'Jingkang Shame' left by the Jin State to the Han nation back then was really impressive.

Liu Bowen suddenly stood up from the chair and saluted Zhu Yuanzhang:

"Your Majesty, what this son said, the minister thinks so."
