Father can be an enemy to the country

The father and son took a stroll in the beautiful back garden of Prince Tan's Mansion.

Zhu Yuanzhang naturally had a lot of bad comments about everything here, such as the waste of people's wealth and money, the ugly people causing mischief, and the faulty Feng Shui. In short, he just didn't like everything he looked at.

The prince and Lao Liu looked at each other and thought to themselves that it seemed that their father really disliked Lao Ba. He thought that taking a walk would calm him down, but he didn't expect that the situation would make him more angry.

"Do you remember what we said before?" After walking to the pavilion by the lake, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly asked Lao Liu: "How long will it take to give us the truth?"

"I don't know." Zhu Zhen shook his head. He had already thought clearly and would never wade into this muddy water again. "My son is not suitable to be in charge of investigating this case."

"Why don't you let your elder brother do it?" Zhu Yuanzhang made a long face: "Don't forget that you are Zong Zhengling!"

"My son, I really forgot." Zhu Zhen said with a bitter smile. There are some errands that cannot be taken on, even if the King of Heaven comes, it will be useless.

"Forget it, Father, stop investigating. Do you really want to force me to death?" The prince advised at this time.

"Yes." Lao Liu nodded and said, "My son seconded the proposal."

"Have you guessed the truth?" Zhu Yuanzhang was so keen that he immediately noticed the difference between the two of them. "Tell me, what shady secret does he have?"

"Since it can't see the light of day, let it never see the light of day." The prince sighed: "Ruling a country is the same as running a family. It may not be good to study everything deeply."

"..." Zhu Yuanzhang's pupils shrank suddenly. In fact, he has been wondering for the past few days what secret Lao Ba is hiding.

After thinking about it, there are really not many crimes that a prince would refuse to admit even to death. There are only two possibilities, which are treason and violation of human ethics.

The reactions of the Crown Prince and Lao Liu made it clear that Lao Ba was definitely not plotting rebellion...

Zhu Yuanzhang's face turned green, white, and green again, making people panic.

His teeth chattered, and the veins on his forehead jumped. Finally, he punched the pillar of the pavilion hard, gritted his teeth and said: "Pass the decree, Prince Tan will be stripped of his guards, deposed as a commoner, and imprisoned with high walls." Let him stay with his cousin within a few days! Let’s pretend we never gave birth to this son!”

"There is also Da family who has no way to teach his son. Let's abolish the position of Ding Fei and let her fend for herself in Anle Hall." Zhu Yuanzhang had just promised Queen Ma to let Da Ding Fei go, but now it doesn't count.

After pondering for a moment, he said in a deep voice: "Don't make any announcement about these two things..."

The two brothers were about to say that it seemed that their father still couldn't bear it, but they heard Zhu Yuanzhang change the subject and said: "Otherwise, Lao Qi will definitely become a monster in Shandong. It is better to wait for Lao Liu to bring him back first, and then deal with it together. Three of them!"

Zhu Zhen was frightened at first. Who said the old thief had double standards? If he really touches his skin, he will turn his back and deny anyone.

Immediately he was startled again, and thought that Xiongying had indeed heard correctly: "Am I going to Shandong?"

"Yes, why didn't the boss tell you?" Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.

"How can I open my mouth about this kind of thing?" The prince said helplessly: "Didn't my father say that you should talk to him personally?"

"Oh, yes, that's what happened." Seeing that he was confused, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and admitted: "Not only Lao Qi's case, Lao Ten also made a mess in Shandong. We plan to let you, Zong Zhengling, go to a Go, see what they are doing, and then bring them back."

"Father also promised to have a good talk with Lao Liu so that he can agree willingly and not force him to go." The prince emphasized again.

"Did I say that?" Zhu Yuanzhang glared at the prince, suspecting that he had betrayed him.

"Brother is right." Zhu Zhen immediately continued: "Since I have a choice, I still choose not to go there. Miaoqing and Liu Li are about to give birth, and there are a lot of things in Yunnan waiting for me to go back. Woolen cloth."

"Okay, let's withdraw the 200,000 troops. It will cause some trouble for Young Master Qi." Zhu Yuanzhang sneered.

He was not talking about the troops already stationed in Yunnan, but the second batch of troops mobilized in the name of conquering Luchuan.

In this age of world peace, Boss Zhu's army of more than two million is basically idle. Having enough to eat all day long and having nothing to fight is not only a heavy burden on the country, but also prone to trouble. Otherwise, how could there be a saying that the birds are gone and the bows are hidden, and the rabbits are dead and the dogs are cooked?

Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to go to war for the sake of the small Luchuan Kingdom. He was not interested in drinking, but was preparing to leave these troops in Yunnan after the war. This can not only reduce the number of troops in the interior, but also increase the number of Han people in Yunnan. It can also give the soldiers a place to use their talents, killing two birds with one stone. That's why Boss Zhu was so arrogant and mobilized 200,000 troops to go to Yunnan.

Therefore, even though Zhu Zhen issued a military order, Boss Zhu still did not withdraw the mobilization order, but the target of mobilization quietly changed from the first-line troops to the second-line garrison stations.

"Don't bother." Zhu Zhen was really pinched. The biggest problem in Yunnan now is that there are too few Han people. Three to four hundred thousand people sounds like a lot, but Yunnan is too big. Once they are spread out, they will look like scum. not see.

Why did Mu Ying only dare to use 30,000 troops to fight Silunfa before defeating Luchuan, but left hundreds of thousands of already trained troops in the rear? It was not to show off one's abilities, but to keep the main army to deter the chieftains who were ready to make a move.

Otherwise, if troops are sent from the front, Yang Ju's rebellion may happen again in the rear. Moreover, now that there are thousands of villages in Yunnan, there are still many places where the tragedy of Songmeng City will be repeated.

So it wasn't until the Luchuan Army was defeated in the first battle and the chieftains were completely frightened that Mu Ying dared to send out the army. Even so, he did not dare to let the army go south for too long and return before the whole of Burma was conquered. In addition to the hot weather, he was also worried about the instability of the rear.

Therefore, Yunnan's most urgent need right now is to increase its troops - the more troops stationed in Yunnan, the simpler Yunnan's problems will be. The more Han people immigrate to Yunnan, the more stable the situation in Yunnan will be. vice versa.

Seeing that Lao Liu was caught, Zhu Yuanzhang further threw out the bait and said: "We will give you another 400,000 people. When the time comes, you will take these 600,000 people back to Yunnan. This will be your five-year million-dollar immigration plan." , we will realize it for you in three years.”

"As long as you can digest it, we will give you another 500,000 yuan to immigrate to you in the next two years. In this way, there will be two million Han people in Yunnan, and the situation will be almost stable." After a pause, Boss Zhu hit three consecutive blows. :

After saying that, he looked at Lao Liu quietly, with an expression of disapproval, as if to say, 'We have done this for you, are you embarrassed to say no? ’

"I understand." What else could Zhu Zhen say? She secretly felt guilty and said, "I'm sorry, ma'am. It's not that I'm not strong-willed, it's just that the old thief gave me too much."
