"This is the Da Ming treasure banknote you printed?"

"The workmanship is quite exquisite."

In the Kunning Palace, Zhu Yuanzhang held the latest printed Daming treasure banknote in his hand, and he expressed his heartfelt admiration.

"Hmm."

"Even if I don't become an official in the future, I can support my family with this hand-drawn skill alone."

Xiao Han sat at the table, and the corners of his mouth were also hooked into a smile.

"What nonsense."

"If you are not an official, it will be a loss to the court."

Not surprisingly, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately glared at Xiao Handao.

"I didn't say that I wasn't an official, I just sighed, after all, my painting skills can still be seen."

Xiao Han's eyes flashed with a little pride, and then he waved his hand.

Ancient times are ancient times after all, and there are fewer entertainment items at night, which is the Qinglou Tavern.

But Xiao Han, who has always been twisted and pinched, will not go to the Qinglou at all, and besides, Xiao Han's identity, that is Suning Hou, and he will not go to the Qinglou.

Just by choosing a concubine, there are a lot of girls sent to the door.

Moreover, Ruoyi, the little maid in the Marquis of Suning's mansion, has been a beauty embryo since she was a child.

Therefore, Xiao Han really won't go to Qinglou.

If you can't go to the Qinglou, there will be only a tavern left, but although Xiao Han loves wine, only this wine is almost strong.

So what else can you do?

Isn't there only piano, chess, calligraphy and painting left?

Therefore, Xiao Han's painting skills were practiced from that time, otherwise, Xiao Han would have designed a fart Daming treasure banknote.

"Hmm."

"Among the officials of the DPRK and China, there are not a few people who are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but those who can be like Feng Xue are only Mr. Song Lian and Master Li Xiyan."

"Of course, just in terms of calligraphy and chess, it can be three points stronger than wind and snow, but the rest are inferior."

Zhu Biao on the side glanced at Xiao Han, who was a little proud, and also smiled.

"Hmm."

"We won't refute this."

Zhu Yuanzhang also nodded lightly.

Xiao Han does learn everything quickly, there is no doubt about this, and just on this point, Xiao Han can be called a genius, not to mention, Xiao Han is not only limited to piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but also for his attainments in the military field, which makes Zhu Yuanzhang even more amazed.

"Only when there are no distractions can we learn to transform into a realm."

"The ministers of the DPRK and China have a lot of distractions in their hearts, so naturally they can't improve, but I'm different."

Xiao Han raised his head, looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao, and said with a soft smile: "Although it is not as good as Mr. Song Lian and Master Li Xiyan, one day, Fengxue can become a family of its own and create a new genre." ”

"Then are we considered to be ancestors?"

When Xiao Han's words fell, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled proudly and said, "After all, you stinky boy's words are still taught by us." ”

"Of course."

"Those who teach and solve doubts are also teachers."

"And you are Fengxue's father, so you are the patriarch of the sect, and there is nothing wrong with it."

Xiao Han glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang helplessly, and arched his hand.

To be reasonable, he Xiao Han can have today's achievements, which is inseparable from Zhu Yuanzhang's teaching, which is also true.

"It's okay, this stinky boy has a bit of a conscience."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at the Daming treasure banknote in his hand again, and couldn't help but wonder: "This treasure banknote is good, it's good, but why is it so thick, can't it be thinner and save expenses?" ”

"Uh-uh."

Xiao Han and Zhu Biao were stunned on the spot, Zhu Yuanzhang's concern turned out to be why this treasure banknote is so thick?

This really made them speechless for a while, and a touch of helplessness flashed in their eyes, it had to be their old Zhu, and the point of concern was so strange.

"Dad, the thickness of this Daming treasure banknote is specially set, in order to prevent counterfeiting, so as not to endanger the market with fakes."

"Therefore, Fengxue has done the following points, just to prevent the Daming treasure banknotes from being counterfeited, and also to make it easier for the people to distinguish them."

"For example, the thickness of the Daming treasure banknote must be slightly lower than this veneer, so that it can be regarded as qualified paper before it can be used to make the Daming treasure banknote, which is equivalent to several pieces of paper stacked together."

"Moreover, the patterns and serial numbers on this painting are to prevent imitation and to facilitate the identification of treasure banknotes."

Zhu Biao took out the piece that had been prepared a long time ago, and then handed it to Zhu Yuanzhang with a smile: "On it, there are all the markings, and it is also for the purpose of distributing to the six parts, as well as to inform the world, how to distinguish them." ”

"Hmm."

"It's a good idea."

After Zhu Yuanzhang finished reading the recital, he handed it to Queen Ma on the side, and then nodded with a smile and said: "This is a guarantee for my Ming people and the court, and you have done a good job in this matter." ”

"Well, everything is for the people and the court, so naturally you have to be cautious, and then cautious, so you have done a good job."

After reading the recital, Queen Ma also nodded with a smile, and was extremely satisfied with Xiao Han and Zhu Biao's approach.

"Thank you for your compliment."

Xiao Han and Zhu Biao bowed in unison.

"By the way, Fengxue, do you have to change your name, after all, if you give the country character and enter the family tree, then you are a royal family relative, or a close relative."

The matter of the Daming treasure banknote came to an end, and Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Xiao Han again, frowned slightly, and said: "There is also a ritual for entering the sect, do you have to do it too." ”

In ancient times, the clan was very important, especially Xiao Han had entered the royal family tree, and he was the concubine appointed by Zhu Yuanzhang, which was equivalent to the son-in-law of Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma.

"I have no father or mother since I was a child, it was your second elder who raised me, and I joined the royal family, so it is naturally very normal to change my national surname."

Xiao Han thought slightly, then looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma and nodded, and said with a smile: "But after calling it for so many years, I am still a little reluctant, so if you think this will work, it is to call it in private, after all, for a while, even if you want to change it, I'm afraid it will be difficult, and it is inevitable to call it wrong." ”

"Hmm."

Regarding Xiao Han's opinion, Zhu Yuanzhang did not refute it, but nodded lightly and said: "That's right, even if you change your national surname, we can probably call it wrong, after all, after calling it for so many years, it's up to you, but on the court side, you can no longer call yourself Xiao Han, but Zhu Han, remember?" ”

"Yes."

Xiao Han still bowed.

"But the rite of entering the sect, with the meaning of a child, is not necessary, the royal family and clan can handle it a little, and it will be fine, and it will not be known to everyone."

"After all, the Daming treasure banknote has been set, and in the spring of next year, it is ready to start the pilot, and everything must be state-owned reserves, so the province is provincial, and there is no need to be extravagant and wasteful."

But then, Xiao Han raised his eyes again, looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma and said.

"Won't you feel wronged?"

Queen Ma took Xiao Han's hand and looked at Xiao Han with a little distress.

"How can you be wronged?"

Xiao Han smiled and shook his head, then looked at Queen Ma and said, "I am the child you brought up, don't you know that with you, when did Xiao Fengxue ever be wronged?" ”

"Hmm."

Queen Ma gently rubbed Xiao Han's head again, her eyes were full of love.

Indeed, how can a child who has been cared for by Queen Ma since childhood feel wronged?

"Stinky boy, he's quite good at talking."

Zhu Yuanzhang also smiled, and then nodded and said, "Then it's up to you." ”

"Thank you, Dad."

Xiao Han looked at Zhu Yuanzhang again, nodded and said with a smile.

"Let's talk about another thing."

"We once said that those who are not royals in the world cannot be kings, but now, you are already a royal family, so you can be crowned kings."

Zhu Yuanzhang straightened his face slightly, and then looked at Xiao Han and said: "Then where do you want to use it as a feudal town, my father will be canonized together tomorrow, after all, now that you are a prince, if you have been holding the marquis, it will never be good." ”

"Hmm!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang's words fell, Xiao Han's eyes widened, and then, he patted his head again, and finally came!

This prince can't accept death, otherwise, if one day he provokes Lao Zhu, Lao Zhu completely awakens, then isn't he Xiao Han dead?

"Uh-uh."

Zhu Biao, who was speaking on the side, also widened his eyes, how could this be different from what he said a few days ago, not that Xiao Han's prince was canonized by him?

Why today, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly became temperamental, and with a direct wave of his hand, he was ready to give Xiao Han a prince!

Of course, Zhu Biao is naturally not because he was a little unhappy when he gave Xiao Han a prince, but because Zhu Yuanzhang's behavior was a little too abnormal.

But Queen Ma on the side was extremely calm.

This scene, Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't know how long he has been practicing, after all, the hurdle in his heart has always made Lao Zhu a little hesitant, which is also human nature.

After all, although Xiao Han is Lao Zhu's heart, he is never his own son, which is a fact that can never be changed.

What's more, this is a big event for the king!

But it was also a moment to figure it out, which is why we have today.

"Daddy."

"If you are not a royal family in the world, you can't be crowned a king, but it is the emperor's ancestral training, how can you change the ancestral system without authorization!"

"It is impossible for the child to accept this king's matter, and ask his father to take back his fate."

Xiao Han looked at Zhu Yuanzhang resolutely and waved his hand.

This prince is a hot potato, he seems to be tall, but he is not as easy as him, the marquis.

After all, Xiao Han's marquis is different from the rest of the marquis.

As for why, you want to ask?

It's not because Xiao Han can let Zhu Zhang, the first king of Qin in the Ming Dynasty, go east, he doesn't dare to go west, let him catch chickens, he doesn't dare to tease dogs.

What do you think of the gold content of this marquis?

Anyway, in the past dynasties, I have never seen such a few awesome marquis!

Moreover, Xiao Han's power is not weaker than that of the prince, so there is no need to joke with his life because of a name, it is not worth it.

"You're already royal."

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Xiao Han, waved his hand indifferently and said: "You are now in the family tree, and you are the concubine of Emperor Ming and Empress Ming, how can you not be the king?" ”

"But the child is still self-aware, and the child is never the biological child of his father."

"Even if the child is in the family tree and becomes a royal family, he is still a foreign surname, which is clear in the history books!"

Xiao Han looked directly at Zhu Yuanzhang and bowed down and said, "Erchen thank God, but please take back your majesty's fate!" ”

"You kid, why are you so stubborn!"

"Even if the history books are clear, even if the way of heaven is clear, but this Ming, let's still have the final say!"

"We want to crown our most important son as king, can't we?"

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Xiao Han helplessly, and then continued: "Besides, all dynasties and dynasties have had successions, and they are not inferior to you. ”

"No!"

"In all dynasties, the matter of succession has always been the succession between relatives, not sons."

"Besides, this precedent can't be opened!"

Xiao Han shook his head again and again, and then, a trace of hesitation flashed in his eyes to look at Zhu Yuanzhang, and he gritted his teeth and said: "If the opposite sex enters the family tree, you can be crowned king, once you set a precedent, if the Ming Dynasty is in turmoil in the future, someone will take the opportunity to take advantage of this to do that rebellious act, won't Erchen become a sinner of Daming, so Erchen will never accept the title of king!" ”

"Dad, what Fengxue said makes sense."

As soon as Zhu Biao's complexion changed, he took the first step out, directly held Zhu Yuanzhang's hand, and said with a crazy gesture in his eyes.

"Okay then."

"Just do as you please."

Zhu Yuanzhang opened his mouth, shook his head and said.

It's just that Lao Zhu is still a little dissatisfied, after all, whose founding emperor is willing to hear the bad of the Ming Dynasty in later generations, but in the face of Xiao Han, Lao Zhu is extremely helpless, after all, the person concerned said so, so what can he do?

Besides, it can be seen from here that Xiao Han is really sincere to Da Ming, otherwise, today, his old Zhu Zhi insisted, and if he was someone else, he would have already thanked God's grace, and he could refuse repeatedly!

"Thank you, Dad."

Xiao Han finally breathed a sigh of relief, but he still felt a little unsafe, so he was ready to give himself an extra layer of insurance, and then looked at Zhu Yuanzhang again and said: "Dad, today's Kunning Palace, you have to let the Zhongshu Sheren completely record it, and there can be no omission, otherwise, the child will be unreasonable in the future." ”

"Hmm."

Zhu Yuanzhang naturally understood what Xiao Han meant.

Recorded in the book, it is not important, what matters is Xiao Han's intention, that is, to tell the people of the world, and even future generations, that he Xiao Han has never thought about becoming a king!

"It's a great time like never before."

"If you can be crowned king, unless the future Ming Dynasty dies, otherwise, your vein will never decay, why don't you want to?"

Subsequently, Xiao Han and Zhu Biao walked out of Kunning Palace, but as soon as they got into the carriage, Zhu Biao couldn't help but look at Xiao Han and asked.

Although Zhu Biao has imagined many times that Xiao Han refused to be crowned king, it is inevitable that there will be some shocks when it happens in front of him!

After all, since ancient times, princes and generals have been the highest pursuit of civil and military affairs, but Xiao Han can calmly refuse the prince, which is indeed something that ordinary people can't do.

"I've never thought of being a king."

Xiao Han closed his eyes lightly and waved his hand.

"You're still afraid of all the birds, good bow hiding?"

But Zhu Biao still frowned, and then shook his head again and said: "The old man is completely sincere today, you won't fail to see it, so unless you are still worried about this, otherwise, why refuse the prince?" ”

"How can I not see the sincerity of the old man today?"

"It's just that I really don't have the heart to be crowned."

Xiao Han was slightly stunned, then shook his head and said.

"Here's a reason, otherwise, you won't be able to convince me."

Zhu Biao still shook his head, still insisting on looking at Xiao Handao.

"Why?"

"It's actually quite simple."

"If one day, if you can really reassure me, I will leave the court, so what's the point of being crowned king?"

Xiao Han thought about it, then looked at Zhu Biao and smiled.

"That's not what you mean, I want to hear the truth."

Zhu Biao still shook his head, still staring at Xiao Handao.

Xiao Han said that he wasn't lying, he didn't have to think about it.

"Forget it, I still can't hide it from you."

Xiao Han looked at the serious Zhu Biao, and immediately smiled bitterly, before he shook his head and said: "My body is really worse day by day, so I don't worry about the birds for a long time, and the good bow is hidden." ”

"It's possible, I won't be able to hold on for even ten years, so my father will definitely posthumously crown me as the king, so what's the difference between being crowned king at this time and chasing me at that time?"

The corners of Xiao Han's mouth hooked up a smile and said: "But I have a different surname and am the king, I still tend to chase the title, so that I can be more down-to-earth, after all, as I said, I don't seek merit, but I want no fault, so if someone takes advantage of this loophole in the future, then won't I become a sinner through the ages?" ”

Xiao Han is frail and sickly, which is always a big problem.

In addition, Xiao Han works day and night, runs for state affairs, and has all kinds of lives, so Xiao Han can't figure out how long he can live, so what's the cost?

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Zhu Biao glared at Xiao Han fiercely, but even if he said a thousand words, he couldn't match the fact that Xiao Han was frail and sickly, and his heart was even more sour, and he suddenly felt a little overwhelmed.

"Who else knows my body better than myself?"

Xiao Han leaned lazily on the chair, closed his eyes slightly, and said with a smile: "Obviously only in his twenties, but this body has no fire at all, and it feels useless to raise it, so let's leave it to fate." ”

Xiao Han's voice did not have any sadness, as if he had looked down on life and death.

But think about it, after experiencing the battlefield and ordering troops, he personally created a classic battle in which the weak defeated the strong, although he did not personally kill the enemy, but what is the difference between the indifference in his eyes and killing?

No wonder, people always say that after experiencing the battlefield, the essence that can often be seen through is life and death.

So, don't be afraid!

Zhu Biao clenched his fists tightly, his eyes were full of tears, but he couldn't say a word in the face of Xiao Han, who was still smiling in front of him.

"Originally, I didn't want to tell you, but since you have to know the facts, I'll tell you today."

"The reform of the Ming Dynasty could have been slowed down, but why am I in such a hurry, that is, I don't know, God will not give me time."

"So, it's still a gamble."

"Because, I want to exhaust what I have learned all my life, for the Ming Dynasty, for the world's common people to have a future."

"Luckily, it's you."

Xiao Han opened his eyes and looked at Zhu Biao, who was sobbing silently, and slowly stretched out his hand to wipe away his tears for Zhu Biao, before he smiled: "Don't cry, if God only gives me ten years, I can still accompany you for ten years, but it's a pity that I can't watch you ascend the throne with my own eyes, at that time, don't blame me." ”

"Brother!"

Zhu Biao immediately cried out, and immediately, the voice spread all over Kunning Palace.

"No wonder!"

"No wonder!"

Tong Zhangshun, who was driving, also had a mist in his eyes, and then, two lines of tears fell.

It is said that men don't flick when they have tears, but they haven't reached the sad place.

But only today, Tong Zhangshun understands that in the past three years, Xiao Han's study has almost always flickered on time and on time.

It turns out that since ancient times, what a thin life!
