Chapter 52: Zhu Laosi, a warrior in the north

Zhan Hui, the secretary of the ministry, went too smoothly along the way, lacking Lao Zhu's beating,

Therefore, Zhizhu induction is obviously not as good as Ying Qi.

After being cleaned up by Lao Zhu, Zhan Hui hurriedly saluted respectfully and retreated,

After Zhan Hui retreated,

Lao Zhu looked at his eldest grandson, his expression was a little embarrassed, and his voice lowered a lot.

flattering laughed twice,

Asked

"Eldest grandson, do you think that grandpa's criminal law is too heavy?

Dissatisfied with grandpa and think we're a murderer? ”

When Zhu Xiongying heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand,

Said

"Grandpa, my grandson didn't think so at all.

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the situation was turbulent and hungry everywhere.

If we don't use the law, the world will be divided again.

It was the grandfather's use of heavy codes in troubled times that stabilized the situation in the Ming Dynasty.

And now that the situation has changed, Sun Er just feels that the role of corporal punishment is not so great.

The law, which used to be dominated by Liwei, should now focus more on education.

Different times, with different methods,

How could a grandson stand on his grandfather's shoulders and say that what his grandfather did more than ten years ago was wrong?

Isn't this a quest for a sword? ”

Zhu Xiongying's words, Zhu Yuanzhang sounded, and he felt very comfortable,

Lao Zhu instantly smiled on his face again,

grinning said,

"In the end, our eldest grandson understands us,

At that time, grandpa had no choice but to do that,

Grandpa can only be a villain.

Facts have proved that our method is still very useful,

But it's true that as you said, now our Ming Dynasty is a peaceful and prosperous world,

It is indeed inappropriate to use harsh corporal punishment again,

When Wenjing was in his prime, the punishment was also commuted, and we thought that this corporal punishment should indeed be abolished. ”

Zhu Xiongying nodded heavily and said,

"That's what Grandpa said."

Zhu Yuanzhang, a smooth donkey, was touched by Zhu Xiongying, and immediately became a staunch supporter of the abolition of corporal punishment.

"Great grandson, as you said, everyone makes mistakes sometimes,

Grandpa has grown so big, and he has made countless mistakes.

You shouldn't chop off your hands and feet because of a little mistake,

This is indeed a bit excessive,

Yes!

Then grandpa will leave this matter to you, this is a good opportunity to accumulate fame! ”

Zhu Xiongying heard this,

A warm current flashed in my heart,

Grandpa is like this, no matter what opportunities he has to show his face, convince people's hearts, and increase his fame, he has given it to himself,

I'd rather be a bad person myself, and set up the person of my grandson and holy king,

Zhu Xiongying looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, his eyes flashed slightly,

Said

"Grandpa~"

Zhu Yuanzhang held Zhu Xiongying's hand and patted it,

Said emotionally,

"Big grandson~"

If this scene is seen by others,

I'm afraid I'll get goosebumps all over my body,

But Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't care about this,

We just like our eldest grandson, what does it have to do with you?

Our own eldest grandson is still rare?

.......

Steppe Western Frontier

Zhu Di ripped off the cloth on his face,

Five years have passed,

Zhu Di's face is obviously more mature,

And after being polished by time, Zhu Di's eyes flashed with wisdom,

Since the third brother was transferred by his eldest nephew to guard the border of the new grassland,

The third and fourth children cooperate with each other very tacitly,

One man guards the west, and one guards the north,

The two of them were like sheepdogs in two directions before the onset of winter,

One went east and the other south, driving the herdsmen back into the Yan land.

The north guarded by the third brother is a bitter cold land, and the climate is extremely low.

The third child also gave himself the most difficult task and volunteered to guard the northern border.

But neither the third nor the fourth child expected that the most dangerous border was in the west.

The new western border of the Ming Dynasty, directly bordering the Timurid Empire and the Kipchak Khanate,

In the past, it was the Northern Yuan regime that bordered these two countries, and the Ming Dynasty knew very little about the situation in these two countries.

But since Zhu Di guarded the western border, he has also begun to contact people from these two countries.

I have to admit that

Both of these countries are behemoths that are far superior to the Northern Yuan!

The Northern Yuan stayed in the Central Plains for too long, and the instinct of the nomadic fighting people had been almost exhausted.

And the Timurid Empire was not the same as the Kipchak Khanate,

They never stopped the war,

The eldest nephew also clearly wrote to tell him that he must not underestimate these two countries.

Compared with them, Beiyuan is like a child facing an adult.

The Timurid Empire was a state composed of Turkic peoples from Central Asia, and it was not yet in its heyday.

In the heyday of the Timurid Empire, it swept the world-famous Persian and Ottoman Empires.

is truly invincible, dominating the Central Asian region for two hundred years, and finally dying in civil strife,

And the Kipchak Khanate is dominated by the Mongols, and it is a khanate divided from the Golden Family period, and the specific combat effectiveness is unknown, but it is definitely stronger than the Northern Yuan people.

Zhu Di really knows very little about these two countries,

But

Zhu Di was extremely cautious, trying in every possible way to find out the intelligence of these two countries.

Zhu Di rubbed his chin, his chin was full of hard stubble,

Although the western border is not as cold as the northern border, it is much colder than the Central Plains.

Zhu Di can clearly feel through his body that it is getting colder and colder.

The temperature is lowered, which is definitely not a good thing,

"Whew!"

Zhu Di let out a long breath, and the breath he exhaled was white,

Zhu Di turned around and picked up a pot of hot milk tea from the stove, poured it into the cup, and after it cooled down a little, he drank it directly.

After drinking the hot milk tea, Zhu Di's body recovered a little.

"Your Highness!"

As soon as Zhu Di put down the cup, the voice came,

Zhang Yu strode into the yurt with the cool air blowing on his face,

Seeing Zhang Yu's face full of anger, Zhu Di poured him a cup of milk tea when he saw this,

Said

"Drink a hot cup first, and then talk slowly, is there something going on on the herdsman's side?"

Although farming and animal husbandry have been combined for five years,

But after all, there are still differences in lifestyle, and everyone has different ways of thinking, which will inevitably cause some small frictions.

But none of these things are a thing.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Zhang Yu took the teacup and drank it down,

Shaking his head,

Said

"Your Highness, something is wrong!

The horses we were going to transport back to the Central Plains were all robbed! ”

"What?!"

When Zhu Di heard this, he couldn't sit still at all, and directly took the case.

"Our horses have been robbed?!"

Zhu Di's voice was full of horror,

I can't even believe it,

Someone dared to snatch Da Ming's horse, how bold is this?!

This group of horses was carefully selected by Zhu Di and prepared to go to Beijing to be presented to his eldest nephew.

It is no exaggeration to say that

Every horse picked out is a maxima! It's all worth a thousand dollars!

And how is it that the whole herd of horses has hundreds of horses, and these horses are directly robbed?

Is this still worth it?!

Zhu Di's face showed anger after a long time, he put on the felt cloak, picked up the matching sword, and strode out of the yurt.

Coldly said,

"Point people, kill people!"
