Father can be an enemy to the country

Oh, by the way, there is also a poem written by the fifth king of Wu, Zhu Juyi - "If you have a son, you will live in peace and harmony; if you are diligent in court, you will be courteous; Shaolun will be generous and moist; Zhaoge will be prosperous".

In addition, at Zhu Shang Kang's 100th birthday banquet, Princess Qin specially toasted to Lao Liu.

"Second sister-in-law will always remember Uncle Six's kindness. I don't dare to say thank you for the great kindness, so I can only give Uncle Six a drink first to express my feelings."

"Second sister-in-law is too polite, and I can't help you much." Zhu Zhen waved his hands and said, "It's my second brother who figured it out on his own."

"Without the "Biography of Zhao Min" written by Uncle Liu for his sister-in-law, your second brother would never be able to figure it out in his lifetime." Princess Qin, who had changed her name to Deng Min, said with red eyes: "Anyway, thank you Uncle Six."

"Okay, Second Sister-in-law is too polite." Zhu Zhen had no choice but to drink the wine offered by Second Sister-in-law and listen to her say many words of gratitude before he could get away.

"It's a pity..." At this time, the third brother said quietly: "The second sister-in-law doesn't know that I also helped her a lot."

What he was talking about was that Miss Deng...if the third brother hadn't taken action, Miss Deng would have put a green hat on the second brother's head. Minmin's life must have been even more dire.

"Second sister-in-law is really generous if she doesn't slap you." The fourth child snorted when he heard this. "I don't know who was the second brother who instigated this in the first place."

"Shhh..." Zhu quickly covered the fourth man's mouth: "Fourth Master, please speak softly, so that father can hear me, I'm going to have my ass explode again."

Why do you say ‘again’? Because after returning to Beijing last year, Boss Zhu found out that these two guys once ran naked in front of the battle and almost ran into the ambush of the rebels.

Boss Zhu was overjoyed. He was worried that his wife would have no place to vent her anger... Oh no, Boss Zhu was furious! In order to teach them an unforgettable lesson, he personally poured hot fatherly love on their butts.

It doesn't matter if the fourth child has a steel butt, but the thin skin and tender flesh of the third child will suffer. I have been lying down to recuperate for the first month of the year, and I have just recovered.

Originally, he planned to secretly send a few Gao Liji to the old thief for a taste, but he was so angry that he stopped giving them and kept them for himself!

Zhu Zhen was very lucky that at least he was not beaten, and when his third brother and fourth brother were beaten, he was not present and did not have to accompany him. At least my butt was saved.

It's a pity that although the beating that belongs to him will be late, he will never be absent...

~~

Let’s talk about Lao Zhu first. He had a hearty meal of 100-year-old wine with his old brothers.

Then he helped his brother-in-law Li Zhen leave the banquet with his own hands. This old Cao Guogong was seventy-five years old, already very old, and his health was not as good as before.

Li Zhen basically doesn't go out much anymore. If the emperor hadn't come in person today, he wouldn't have come to keep him company.

"Oh, it's really useless." Li Zhen said to Zhu Yuanzhang tremblingly: "It's so rude that the emperor has to support me."

"You are our brother-in-law, the only relative of our generation." Boss Zhu said unconcernedly, "If we followed the rules of etiquette with you, then we would be indifferent."

"So." Zhu Yuanzhang said as he helped him get into the driveway: "Brother-in-law, you have to live a good life and stay with us for another twenty years. You can't leave us alone."

"Okay, we obey." Li Zhen was already unable to get into the car. His grandson Li Jinglong quickly lifted his legs and almost carried him to the car and sat down.

Just this, it made Li Zhen gasp for breath.

Zhu Yuanzhang felt strange after seeing this, and told Li Jinglong: "Stop wandering outside all day long, stay at home and spend more time with your grandpa."

"Hey." Li Jinglong hurriedly agreed, thinking that your third child is more profligate than me. The blossoming of his butt didn't stop him from having fun...

After seeing off Li Zhen, Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma boarded the royal chariot and drove back to the palace amid the respectful farewell of the officials.

On the way, Zhu Yuanzhang sighed: "Brother-in-law is really old."

"You are seventy-five, how can you not be the youngest?" Queen Ma rolled her eyes at him and said, "You think you are still young, you are already fifty, so take it easy."

"Hey." Zhu Yuanzhang quickly nodded in agreement, and then sighed: "It's so fast. At fifty, it's time to know your destiny."

As he moved his "50 shoulders", he said: "Some things should be arranged quickly... I plan to announce at the next court meeting that the prince will visit the ministers on the day to listen to the announcements of the ministers in order to practice state affairs."

"Well, Biao'er is twenty-two, and things are much more appropriate now than as a father like you." Empress Ma also fully agreed, and the matter was settled.

Then she said to her husband: "This way, you will have much more leisure."

"We might as well use up our spare time and do some big things that we must do." Zhu Yuanzhang did not deny that he had this idea.

"Thirty more sons?" Queen Ma teased.

"We did it to expand the old Zhu family, not for the sake of women." Zhu Yuanzhang hurriedly clarified loudly: "I am the only one in this generation. I will panic if I don't have more sons."

"Chongba, I'm not jealous. I don't care about your lust." Empress Ma also said seriously:

"I really think fourteen or five sons are enough. Don't forget, your sons are not ordinary people. They will all be princes in the future. A prince earns 50,000 shi of rice a year and has 25,000 yuan in banknotes. Thousand pieces of string, forty pieces of brocade, three hundred pieces of silk, one hundred pieces each of gauze, five hundred pieces of silk, one thousand pieces each of winter and summer cloth, two thousand taels of cotton, two thousand pieces of salt, one thousand catties of tea, horse fodder Fifty horses per month...this does not include the cost of building the palace, the burden on the common people is too heavy."

"Twenty sons only cost one million dan, so that's okay..." Zhu Yuanzhang said with a guilty conscience.

"In the future, each of them will have ten sons, and ten sons will give birth to ten grandsons?" Queen Ma asked back: "The prince's son will at least be a county prince, with a salary of six thousand dan; the prince's grandson will at least be a general who governs the country. Lumi, two thousand stones... have you ever calculated how much it is?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned when he heard this. "How many?"

"Five.68 million shi!" Queen Ma gave the answer on the spot: "This doesn't include those silks and satins, tea horse notes and salt!"

"Fuck..." Zhu Yuanzhang gasped, feeling for the first time that having more children and grandchildren was not just a good thing. "Is it really that expensive?"

"Don't you know it by yourself? In a few generations, I'm afraid that the national income will not have to do anything else, and it will not be enough to raise your offspring." Empress Ma said sincerely: "Chongba, you love the people like your own children, don't you?" Let the civil and military forces harm the people. We cannot just turn a blind eye to our own family and let the clan beat the people to their bones and suck out their marrow."

"Alas..." Zhu Yuanzhang scratched his head and said: "Sister, you are right. We did give you a bit too much. However, the vassal treatment was only set last year. It has been reduced for no reason in the past year. Those people must have thought it was them. What a credit, he knows how to push his nose and face, and go even harder on our son."

"Yes." Empress Ma had never seen anyone's heart be sinister, and she knew that Zhu Yuanzhang was not lying to her. Ever since Ye Boju wrote the letter, his sons have been at the forefront of public opinion. It seems that some people are really determined to completely discredit the lord's image even if they can't disrupt the feudal feud.

"This matter is not urgent. After all, only four of our sons are receiving their salaries now. It doesn't matter if it takes a few more years. As long as you know what to do, don't dig a hole for future generations that cannot be filled."

"Well, sister, we will definitely never forget what you said." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, then remembered something and said: "By the way, we poured out the empty space not to create people, but to create a pornographic book. ah!"

"I know, I'm just teasing you." Queen Ma said with a faint smile.

ps. People say that I feel like I drank fake wine, but it’s really... It’s not that I drank fake wine, it’s that I couldn’t wake up for a few days after drinking it. I can’t even see the typos, so I really don’t drink anymore.
