Chapter 15: In the Wuying Palace

"The edict ordered Chu Wang Zhen to be the chief commander and Xiang Wang Bai to be the deputy commander, and the two of them led the palace guards and the soldiers and horses of the Huguang Capital Division to crusade against the Daozhou barbarian ......"

Early in the morning, after a night of consideration, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered his two sons in Huguang to quell the rebellion after Zhu Yunwen arrived at Wuying Palace.

In this regard, Zhu Yunwen also responded, and then arranged.

It's just that after the arrangement, sitting on the throne in the Wuying Palace, Zhu Yuanzhang still couldn't help complaining to Zhu Yunwen:

"I told you last year that there is a lack of a vassal king in the south of Huguang, and it seems that it is not what I expected at the moment, and the south has not been peaceful."

"Why don't you arrange a few uncles to go out of Changsha?" Zhu Yunwen pretended to ask Zhu Yuanzhang what he meant, but Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head:

"Compared with Huguang, the southwest and north are not very peaceful."

"Now that your uncles in the palace have a place to go, if you have a child in the future, Huguang has not yet been pacified, you will seal him in Changsha at that time, and let him guard the land for you."

"Grandson knows, Grandpa Xie Huang reminds" Zhu Yunwen responded, and Zhu Yuanzhang also waved his hand to signal him to deal with government affairs.

Soon after he withdrew from the Wuying Palace, footsteps came from outside the hall again.

After a short time, Xu Huizu, who was dressed in a given suit, walked to the door of the palace, and while singing long live, he did not forget to kneel down and bow five times and three times, and then got up.

"Yungong, there have been a lot of raids on the coast recently, and I sent you here to ask what you think."

Zhu Yuanzhang did not use "I" as a self-title in the face of Xu Huizu, but used the more cordial "I".

This made Xu Huizu understand his intentions, so Xu Huizu did not hide it, but replied pretly:

"Your Majesty, my nephew is willing to go to Zhejiang to supervise the training of sergeants."

"Well......" Zhu Yuanzhang got the answer he wanted, nodded with a little satisfaction, and continued to speak unhurriedly:

"Let An Luhou Wu Jie, as well as the Governors Yang Wen and Liu De accompany you, and focus on inspecting the Ningbo area."

"The nephew is commanded!" Xu Huizu was tall, so his reply that was neither humble nor arrogant could often echo in the Wuying Palace.

Such a voice and courage reminded Zhu Yuanzhang of his "Great Wall", Xu Da, the king of Zhongshan.

It's just that this kind of reminiscence is only for a moment, and after an instant, Zhu Yuanzhang came back to his senses and asked Xu Huizu about one thing:

"Recently, the northern captives have been a little dishonest, and the North Korea on the Liaodong side is not very stable, I am going to let the king of Han and the king of Shen patrol the border and inspect the kings, what do you think?"

"The nephew thinks that His Majesty has arranged it very well." Xu Huizu knew in his heart that the emperor had already made plans, and asking him was just a tentative attitude.

patrolling the border, it means that his brother-in-law Yanwang Zhu Di is also among the people who are being monitored.

"......" Xu Huizu was a little apprehensive in his heart, he didn't understand why the emperor didn't even worry about King Yan, who was the pillar of the country right now.

It was only a moment before Xu Huizu reacted.

"I'm afraid that this border patrol is intended for Qin Jin, not Yan Liao......"

Xu Huizu could probably guess some of the things about King Jin and Fu Youde, but he wasn't worried about Feng Sheng and King Zhou.

The king of Zhou has no great talent, but the king of Jin is ambitious.

"Since this is the case, then order King Shen and King Han to let them visit the five brothers of Qin, Jin, Yan, Zhou, and Qi in turn."

"Let the two set off on the same day, and the king of Han will visit the king of Zhou first, followed by the two kings of Qin and Jin, and finally the two kings of Yan and Qi."

"King Shen first visited the King of Qi, then the two kings of Yan and Jin, and finally the kings of Qin and Tuesday."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked sideways at the celebrant and eunuch who was recording next to him, and after seeing the other party write down his words, he withdrew his gaze and continued to focus on Xu Huizu:

"Gao Xu, what do you think is going now?"

"Back to Your Majesty......" Xu Huizu replied:

"Maybe it's because he's getting older, that kid is studying military books in the big church field with peace of mind, and from time to time he goes to the big church field to see some people's lives in the nearby market town."

"Not long after he first arrived at the Great Sect, Li Ying, the son of Brother Li Nange, the commander of Xiningwei, was also the son of a military attache in the army, but he was taught a lesson by that kid."

"The rest of the houses near his barracks have also been taught by him, and that kid keeps saying that the people are precious, and it seems that he has really changed his character."

Xu Huizu did not hesitate to praise Zhu Gaoxu's changes in the past few months, and Zhu Yuanzhang himself was overjoyed when he heard it.

Although he hated Zhu Gaochu before, Zhu Gaoxu's performance in the military attaché's children's examination school did earn him a lot of face.

Coupled with the changes in Zhu Gaoxu in Xu Huizu's mouth now, Zhu Yuanzhang is still very happy that the descendants of the Zhu family can produce such a child.

He smiled and turned his head sideways, and smiled at the eunuch who was the celebrant eunuch: "Listen to the words of Wei Guogong, people say that the prodigal son will not change his money, I only think that those Buddha and Confucian scholars said to fool the foolish people." ”

"At the moment, Gao Xu's performance is indeed commendable."

During the conversation, Zhu Yuanzhang also rewarded him: "Let someone send 200 bills to that kid, and tell him that if he passes the Taoluo examination, I will give him another reward." ”

"The nephew thanked Your Majesty for that kid Gao Xu!" Xu Huizu expressed his gratitude, but Zhu Yuanzhang didn't say anything that he was Zhu Gaoxu's grandfather, but looked at Xu Huizu, and said after a while:

"If you go to Zhejiang to train sergeants this time, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to come back in three or five months."

"If Gao Xu is qualified, I will find a good teacher to teach him, and add a general to the fourth child."

Zhu Yuanzhang stroked his beard, and was very satisfied with his approach, but after he finished speaking, before the next topic could be opened, footsteps came from outside the hall.

After a while, Zhu Yunwen walked in with a piece of music.

When he saw Xu Huizu, his expression was obviously a little stunned, but he quickly calmed down, walked into the hall, and handed the song to Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Grandpa Huang, the capital of Shanxi, please allocate cloth and cotton to prepare for the cold winter."

"Well......" took over the recital, Zhu Yuanzhang read it a little, and then nodded:

"At present, it is normal to prepare cloth and cotton, you send the household department and the governor's office to count the number of registered people, and send the cloth and cotton according to the head."

After that, Zhu Yuanzhang added:

"In addition, let the third child write me in detail about the establishment of the Hetao Dongsheng to defend the city, and I will see if I need to change it."

"Yes......" Zhu Yunwen responded, and then slowly withdrew from the hall.

Seeing Zhu Yunwen leaving, Xu Huizu also prepared to sing and leave, but Zhu Yuanzhang interrupted him again.

"Over the years, the people in the west have disobeyed the imperial decrees, and I sent someone to reduce the amount of the tea trade."

"After you leave the palace, go to Cao Guogong to talk to you in person, don't let the tea farms and officials in Shaanxi, Sichuan, Yunnan and other places smuggle and support those people."

"Any merchant who smuggles tea to the West will be dealt with by law."

After Zhu Yuanzhang finished explaining the last thing, Xu Huizu also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart when he saw this, and bowed in return.

"The nephew received the order, and after a while, he discussed this matter with Cao Guogong in detail."

"Hmm...... Step aside. Zhu Yuanzhang responded, and immediately lowered his head and began to deal with the music.

Looking at his appearance, Xu Huizu also cautiously withdrew from the hall.

After a while, until the footsteps stopped, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly looked up at the window of Wuying Palace.

Looking at the blue sky and white clouds and the glazed tiles of the red wall, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly laughed:

"Sister, you didn't say it right this time, Gao Xu's kid has really changed his character......"
