Father can be an enemy to the country

Chapter 74 A good man has ambitions everywhere

As soon as the brothers retreated, Zhu Biao hurriedly said: "Dad, why don't you discuss it with me?"

"Discuss with you? How can this matter be accomplished?" Zhu Yuanzhang curled his lips and said: "It cost us two kilograms of saliva just to convince your mother, and we have to deal with you again? We can't bear it."

Hearing that the queen mother agreed, Zhu Biao no longer objected. "Then let me go too, I have to watch them to feel at ease!"

"No, absolutely not!" Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head repeatedly without thinking. "Isn't this nonsense? What should I do if there is danger?"

"Then you're not afraid that the five of them will be in danger?" Zhu Biao looked at his father in disbelief. "The sixth child is still so young..."

"Uncut jade cannot be used. When we were herding cattle, we were only seven years old..." Zhu Yuanzhang came up with his trick again.

"No, my father must treat everyone equally. Either let me go with them, or don't go at all!" Zhu Biao challenged him.

"What are you doing? Can you be like them? It's true that they are all our sons, but you are the prince, the foundation of the country, and we can't let you make any mistakes!" Zhu Yuanzhang glared, and then slowed down and said:

"They are vassal kings and will lead troops to fight in the future. If we don't let them suffer a little now, they will lose their lives in Saibei in the future!"

Then he lowered his body and said: "Okay, okay, don't make such a fool of yourself yet. They are all my sons, how can we let them take risks?"

After speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang told the prince his arrangements:

"We arranged for Han Yike, the magistrate of Linhuai, and Ping Baoer, both civil and military, to work together to take care of your five younger brothers. We also asked these two to report separately every day, so that they can supervise each other and prevent them from causing trouble. "

"That's it..." Zhu Biao's expression softened. After thinking for a while, he asked worriedly: "These two people don't have any special missions, do they?"

"Hehe, you are smart." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said: "Let's arrange for these two trustworthy people to go to Fengyang, hoping that one of them can check the civilian fields and the other can check the military settlements. There has been encroachment.”

"Father gave them a decree?" Zhu Biao was slightly frightened. This was no joke. If you don't get it right, you can't end it.

"No. We didn't even say it clearly." Zhu Yuanzhang felt an itch on his back, but he knew he was in the wrong and was too embarrassed to let his son scratch it, so he could only take the handle Ruyi pitifully and insert it into the back of his collar to solve the problem himself.

Zhu Biao was indeed indifferent and said to himself: "Father, do you want them to experience it on their own?"

"Yes." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded while scratching: "Ping Bao'er won't say anything. Isn't Han Yi jealous of evil? If he discovers something excessive, he shouldn't be indifferent, right? Only when he comes here can we intervene and deal with it. But it has to be a major case..."

"Then you have to at least give a hint to Magistrate Han, otherwise it's just a matter of waiting and waiting?" Zhu Biao said helplessly.

"We asked Ping Bao'er to find him, but it was only a hint... In this way, no matter what happens in the end, there is always room for change." After Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, he let out a long sigh.

"well……"

When facing the Huaixi Group, this feeling of being put in a position of resistance is even more unpleasant than being manipulated by Chen Youliang and Zhang Shicheng.

"You have to wait until your brothers grow up and go out of town to lead troops for us. We don't have to carry eggs across the river like this." He looked at the prince pitifully and said: "So, you Can you understand the old father’s eagerness to train them to be successful?”

"Okay..." Zhu Biao nodded.

In fact, he had known for a long time that his father's tolerance of the old Huaixi brothers, apart from nostalgia, was largely due to the fact that the army was in the hands of these people.

It does not mean that the army can be controlled by taking back military power.

Because in addition to senior generals, the army is composed of a large number of middle and low-level officers. They are the backbone of the army and the direct leaders of ordinary soldiers.

And these middle and low-level officers are almost all adopted sons, soldiers, old subordinates, and old brothers of nobles.

An individual noble may not have such a strong influence, but if they are provoked to form a group, their influence on the Ming army will be great.

How to properly eliminate the threat of military groups is a problem that all founding emperors have to face, and my father is certainly no exception.

"Okay, I don't have to go." Zhu Biao finally accepted his father's arrangement and finally insisted: "But at least let me know the situation of my brothers as soon as possible."

"Isn't this difficult to handle? Let Ping Baoer and Han Yike report directly to you." Zhu Yuanzhang readily agreed.

"Okay." Zhu Biao nodded.

Wan'an Palace.

When she learned that her son was going to the countryside for training, Concubine Hu Chong openly drowned her sorrows in wine.

Just drink and cry at the same time, drink for a while, cry for a while, and Zhu Zhen on the side is stunned.

"If Mom is really reluctant to leave, then I won't go, right?"

"Go, you must go, good men are everywhere! Mother can't hold you back..." Concubine Hu Chong wiped away her tears and said firmly.

"Okay, then I'll go..."

"Oh, my mother can't bear to leave you..." Concubine Hu Chong cried and hugged her son.

"Mom, are you a Gemini?" Zhu Zhen was speechless.

"It would be better if I had two children. At least I still have someone by my side to keep me company, wuwu..." Concubine Hu Chong cried, finally remembering what she wanted to say and said:

"By the way, your grandpa's family is also in Fengyang. I heard that they now live in a manor, which seems to be called Hufuzhuang. If you encounter difficulties that you cannot overcome, you can inquire and seek refuge with them."

"Great!" Zhu Zhen was overjoyed when he heard this. He didn't expect that his mother-in-law could give him a trump card. "But mother, you have to give me a token, otherwise how can I recognize my grandpa?"

"No need, they can understand it just by looking at your face." Concubine Hu Chong said confidently.

Changyang Palace.

"You evil beast, kneel down!" Concubine Da Ding held the thorn in her hand and scolded Lao Qi angrily.

"Concubine, where did I go wrong again?" Lao Qi was confused.

"Your father asked you to go to Wuying Palace, why didn't you follow?" Concubine Da Ding asked angrily.

"Eldest brother said that Father didn't call me!" Lao Qi called out to Chong Tianqu.

"You won't go if I don't call you? How many times have I told you? I want to get closer to my brothers, why don't you listen?"

"They are going to be punished..." Lao Qi muttered.

"You don't care what they are doing. Now that your brothers and Liu are going away together for a year, they will leave you alone in the main hall!"

"Isn't there still Lao Ba..." Lao Qi muttered in a low voice.

"Shut up." Concubine Da Ding whipped him on the buttocks, and cursed him uncontrollably:

"In just one year, you will be completely separated from them! In the future, they will be the same as Lao Liu!"

"Then I'll tell Father to go together!" Lao Qi screamed in pain.

"Do you think I didn't tell you? But your father asked you to wait for the next batch! Just play with your brother!" Concubine Da Ding cracked the whip again, worthy of the name of 'Concubine Beater'.

"So what?" Lao Qi finally couldn't help but burst out: "I want to be a vassal anyway, who can see whom by then? We will all end up splitting up in the end!"

As he spoke, he straightened his neck and exposed the mother-in-law and said: "You are doing this for yourself! To show that you are good at raising your children, so that you can compete for the favor of your father!"

"You fart!" Concubine Da Ding was so angry that her pretty face was livid and she slapped her buttocks.

"I'm doing this all because of your evil deed!"

"You're just here to hit me, wuwu..."

The next day, there was an edict saying: "The emperor's second son, King Jin of Qin, the third son of the emperor, King Jin, the fourth son of the emperor, King Yan, the fifth son of the emperor, King Wu, and the sixth son of the emperor, King Zhen of Chu, were naughty and almost caused a big mistake. Five people were arrested." Hu is studying behind closed doors for a while, cultivating himself and cultivating his character. No one is allowed to visit. I appreciate this! ’
