If Lao Zhu's sons were present,

Hearing what Lao Zhu said, he would definitely faint from crying,

But now Lao Zhu is full of positive faces,

Apparently what he said,

Not a joke at all, but from the heart,

Lao Zhu gave birth to so many princes with strong fertility,

It is to take the best of the best, and the best of the best,

Keep it for the boss and grandson to guard the border,

Although it is sad to say,

But that's exactly what happened.

Zhu Xiongying scratched his head,

I didn't know what to say for a while,

Since grandpa said so, there is no way,

I could only hold back my sadness and treat the fourth uncle as a donkey.

........

Prince East Palace

Prince Zhu Biao asked the family to have a meal together,

At this time, except for Lao Zhu, who has not yet arrived,

Queen Ma and a group of princes have taken the throne,

Lao Zhu Yu's position in the middle was vacant,

Queen Ma sat on the left-hand side, and Zhu Biao sat on the right-hand side.

The rest of the princes sat down according to their age,

In addition to the little twenty Zhu Song and the little twenty-one Zhu Mo who are too young to nurse at home,

The other nineteen princes were there.

Looking at this big family, they are all somewhat similar to Zhu Yuanzhang's appearance,

I have to obey, Lao Zhu's ability to give birth to a baby.

But the five-year-old seventeen Zhu Quan stared at it with big eyes,

The stomach gurgles,

Zhu Quan couldn't help but blush,

Holding his stomach and bowing his head.

The fourth Zhu Di smiled,

"Little Seventeen? Hungry?

Didn't eat at noon? ”

Little Seventeen Zhu Quan hid his head,

The urn said angrily,

"Fourth brother, eat."

Queen Ma was in front of her, and said with a kind smile,

"It's the age when you grow up, and it's normal to be hungry.

Chonghachi is also late, don't wait for him,

Let's eat first. ”

All over the world, I can say that I don't have to wait for Zhu Yuanzhang's words,

I'm afraid it's only Queen Ma.

Zhu Biao nodded,

He also knew that his father was capable on the outside and was very well-behaved in front of his mother.

And he beckoned,

"Let's serve the food."

The little princes couldn't help cheering,

Then one by one the royal banquets of the court were served,

But this dish is not as good as I imagined,

It's all ordinary people's practice,

Four meats, four vegetables and one soup,

Take the number of nine.

But don't look at the simplicity of the dish, it does smell fragrant,

The fragrance of vegetables drilled down the nose into the head,

The princes' eyes couldn't help but light up,

They don't usually have such good food.

couldn't help but droop and turned into a gluttonous cat.

But even if you are hungry like this,

No one dared to move the chopsticks first,

just looked at Zhu Biao blankly.

In addition to Lao Zhu's attention to the first five children, the rest of the sons are basically handed over to Zhu Biao.

The elder brother is like a father,

These little princes are in awe of Lao Zhu,

As for Zhu Biao, it is more dependent.

Zhu Biao first sandwiched the most tender fish meat with chopsticks for Queen Ma and put it into Queen Ma's bowl.

Then he laughed,

"Eat."

The princes held back their cheers,

Lower your head and start cooking.

Eating without saying anything is the rule of the old Zhu family.

So, none of them spoke while eating.

but

Apparently it's for them.

At this moment,

Zhu Yuanzhang strode back,

"Have you started eating?"

Zhu Biao's five brothers are okay,

The rest of the little princes hurriedly put down their chopsticks,

I was extremely scared of Lao Zhu.

Queen Ma glared at Lao Zhu,

Gritting his teeth in his heart,

This Zhu Chongba! I'm going to sneak in to find my eldest grandson again!

Queen Ma also wants to stay alone with her eldest grandson,

But Lao Zhu is occupying Zhu Xiongying,

There is no room for Queen Ma to insert it at all,

Queen Ma said angrily,

"I let them eat first, what's wrong?"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, his neck shrank,

Muttered,

"We didn't say anything..."

And when he spoke, he went to the Lord's seat and sat down.

Without further ado,

Begin to bow your head and cook.

Seeing this scene,

The little princes breathed a sigh of relief and secretly looked at Zhu Biao,

Zhu Biao smiled and nodded,

Mouth-shaped,

Eat quickly.

Only then did the little princes relax and began to bow their heads and cook again.

A large family ate for a quarter of an hour with a blank face.

The food on the table was eaten at all.

Lao Zhu's family eats very quickly,

This is also the style left by Zhu Yuanzhang,

Lao Zhu is an old farmer by nature,

To him to eat is to have a full stomach, not to enjoy,

So Zhu Yuanzhang ate very quickly.

He felt that it was a waste of time to spend too much time eating.

It's better to do more work with this effort.

After removing these empty plates and bowls from the table,

Zhu Yuanzhang closed his eyes and recuperated,

Obviously, the rest of the matter is none of his business.

Queen Ma saw Zhu Yuanzhang's rotten appearance,

I couldn't help glaring at him again.

But Lao Zhu can't see it directly.

Zhu Biao looked at the princes,

I don't know what to say,

After all, the princes have too many age spans,

Talking about some political affairs, the little ones don't understand,

Tell some interesting things, the big ones don't like to listen.

So

For a while, the atmosphere was a bit deadlocked.

Zhu Yuanzhang closed his eyes and said,

"You brothers, tell me about the emperor's grandson's salt factory."

Zhu Yuanzhang's brothers,

Basically, it refers to the eldest to the fifth, and the five brothers.

Wen Yan,

The five brothers looked at each other,

What does Daddy mean by that?

What is there to say about the emperor's grandson's salt factory?

Just do it.

For foreign ministers, it is a big deal for the emperor and grandson to run a salt factory.

And for the princes,

It's not a thing.

At the very least,

It has nothing to do with them.

One is that Lao Zhu doesn't let them have anything to do with this matter.

The emperor's grandson runs a salt factory, what does it matter to you vassal kings?!

If they dare to put their hands into the capital,

There is no doubt about it,

It will definitely be interrupted by Lao Zhu's handle!

The second is that they don't want to have a relationship either.

Do they need to take sides?

Not at all.

It doesn't matter who the crown prince appoints, it doesn't matter to them.

Anyway, whoever the father appoints, they support,

It's as simple as that.

So

Lao Zhu asked them to talk about the salt factory,

They were really stunned by the question.

Queen Ma's eyes flashed,

It can be said that

Queen Ma's judgment on political affairs is no less than that of Lao Zhu.

How many times of crisis,

When Lao Zhu lost his judgment,

It's all Queen Ma who came out to make judgments.

And not a single missed one.

merely

Queen Ma thinks that women should not participate in politics,

She is also willing to be a green leaf for Lao Zhu.

So

Even if Queen Ma figured out what was going on,

Nor will he speak.

The five brothers stared at each other,

I don't know what to say.

Although they didn't understand what Lao Zhu's question meant,

But through countless painful lessons, they have learned a truth,

That's the father's moodiness,

One second I watched you laugh, and the next second I slapped you with a big mouth.

It is better not to speak than to be the first to speak,

Anyway, the first one to speak, except for the eldest brother, basically didn't end well.

Zhu Biao scratched his head,

Opening,

"Dad, what do you mean?"

Zhu Yuanzhang closed his eyes and half leaned back in his chair,

A small chair actually sat out of the dragon chair,

The little princes were so frightened that they didn't even dare to gasp.

A moment of silence,

Zhu Yuanzhang opened his eyes,

Sweeping the princes,

Said

"What do you mean? Whoever does a good job will let him get the salt of Daming in the future. ”

Bang dang!!

The second Zhu Fan did it to the ground with a butt,

"Daddy!!!!"

How tragic and tragic Zhu Rong's voice is,

How tragic and tragic it is,

The rest of the brothers are not much better,

Even Zhu Biao couldn't help but open his mouth wide to look at Lao Zhu,

Zhu Biao found that he was completely wrong!

I thought that my father was going to investigate Yun Xi and Yun Xi through this matter,

But this rehearsal,

Otherwise

My father would not have made any such emphasis on building a small salt factory.

And now my father suddenly said,

Whoever manages it well, will give him the entire salt industry of the Ming Dynasty,

You know,

The entire salt industry of the Ming Dynasty,

That's a huge part of Daming's tax revenue!

Don't say that it is Yun Wei and Yun Xi two children,

Even Zhu Biao himself didn't dare to pat his chest and promise to do this thing well,

The management of the salt industry has always been held in the hands of his father.

It will not be left to human hands.

Because everybody knows it,

Managing the salt industry is no less than holding a tiger talisman in your hand.

It is even said that

To be more !!

Zhu Biao only thought that his father was crazy, and hurriedly turned his head to look at his mother,

I thought about asking my mother to persuade my father.

But Zhu Biao found that

My mother has also begun to close her eyes and recuperate!

I don't want to care about it at all!

This made Zhu Biao go crazy!

The fourth Zhu Di couldn't hold back,

Speak,

"Daddy,

This, this is a bit too sloppy! ”

Zhu Yuanzhang asked seriously,

"Sloppy?

Why don't we think. ”

The princes were stunned,

I can't help but roar in my heart,

Isn't that sloppy?!

And at this time, Queen Ma secretly said in her heart,

Heavy eight, heavy eight,

The salt industry, Jinyi and Wei are all important weapons of a country,

You handed it all over to Xiongying?!

Don't hesitate to do this?!

Queen Ma opened her eyes and looked at Lao Zhu with complicated eyes,

secretly compared his thumbs,

Shouted in his heart,

Heavy eight!

Good job!!
