Rebirth of the Ming Dynasty: Sixth Generation of Glory, I don't want it

In the past few years, apart from being stationed at the border, King Ning has not been living a leisurely life.

The Emperor's grandfather liked Prince Ning very much, and his son was also quite capable. At least in the field of studying, he was a leader among the princes.

Therefore, my great grandfather asked Prince Ning to edit the historical events before the founding of the country in the style of annals and outline calligraphy.

Just like the books she compiled later, this book portrayed the emperor's grandfather as a great man.

It should have been compiled in September of this year, named "Tongjian Boyan", with only two volumes.

It's April now, and the two volumes of the book are almost finished.

After she had taken care of Zhao's side, she had to work hard with Zhu Gaochi.

See if you can get in touch with Prince Ning, and get him to do something he really likes to do to ease the disgust caused by editing the book.

Oh, that's not right. There seems to be something wrong with this order.

Zhang Xin thought about it halfway and then he realized something.

This should be done the other way around, and let King Ning beg his own family.

Getting a job is not a business, asking for it is a favor.

Zhang Xin might not be sure about this kind of elegant event for others, but Prince Ning would definitely be excited and would quickly find out who the host is, and would not tell anyone easily.

In his previous life, Prince Ning said that he was tricked by his father-in-law into going to the Three Guards of Doyan.

In fact, Zhanji later told himself that they were just going with the flow and betting on both sides.

His son's early evaluation of Prince Ning was very insightful: people who are good at planning think too much, and if they are not even a little bit sure they will not dare to go into battle, so they are destined not to be the top position.

The Prince Ning that Zhang Xin knew was really devoted to mountains and rivers in his later years and wrote many books.

Even his request for a better fief was rejected by Zhanji and the matter was left unresolved.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xin drank up the tea in the cup:

"Wanxiu, take the pair of cards and go out again. Ask the wet nurse to tell the shopkeeper that once the scented tea is ready, find an opportunity to present it to Prince Ning's mansion. If anyone from Prince Ning's mansion comes looking for them, the shopkeeper must report it immediately."

"Yes, Crown Princess."

~~~

Ming Dynasty, the 29th year of Hongwu, August.

【The imperial edict established the four Kaiping garrisons.】

"Zhongtunwei is in Shayu, and there are four new ones, Liuheying, Juntai, Pianling, and Shita."

After dinner, during the daily greeting time, Xu asked about the matters in the court bulletin, and Zhu Gaochi reported the name of the place where the newly opened garrison was located.

"North of the Great Wall, the three guards of Daning, Kaiping and Dongsheng are the first line, and the nine frontiers are the second line. Your Majesty is so great—"

Xu sighed.

"Yeah. As long as that person is not stupid, our family will be at ease."

Zhu Gaochi strongly agreed.

Prince Ning's fief was in Daning, with 80,000 armored soldiers and 6,000 chariots, which was already a strong army. The emperor's grandfather also added the Daning Guard.

Now Kaiping has caught up, and external communication is almost foolproof.

The situation was very clear. The older generation who were good at attacking and fighting and could raise an army with a call had basically died or retired due to illness in the Northern Expedition and the purge of my grandfather.

A rising star like Prince Ning is definitely another sword left by his grandfather to Zhu Yunwen. In addition to his father's sword which is in its prime.

As long as Zhu Yunwen does not act recklessly, with two swords at his disposal, he can expand the territory if he advances or preserve the country if he retreats.

The emperor's grandfather was very thoughtful in helping his grandson secure his position.

"I'm afraid he's stupid."

Xu sighed.

"Mom is taking medicine, don't think too much, a day will pass in the blink of an eye anyway."

Zhu Gaochi comforted her.

"As soon as you close your eyes, your life will pass by!"

Xu rolled her eyes and retorted.

"puff--"

Zhang Xin burst out laughing.

"Xin'er, don't laugh. After all, the queen must be established and she cannot be soft-hearted.

Chi'er, the same goes for you. The Crown Prince's Consort who loves and cherishes you is the person who will stand by you through thick and thin in your life.

Stay away from other women.

If there are people with such a lot of thoughts, don't even try to keep them.

Sister Chang kept Lu, a scourge like this, so that she and her wives and concubines seemed to be in harmony.

But in the end, after her death, Lu became the legitimate wife.

Whether or not Lu was responsible for Xiongying's death is another matter, but no one knows what kind of person Yunhun (teng) has become now.

I feel sad whenever I think about it.

Sometimes I am afraid to dream about Sister Chang. We are together, but I can’t help her young son at all.

Man, hum! Man!!!"

Xu's expression was serious, which was both a reminder to Zhang Xin and a warning to Zhu Gaochi.

She really disliked Lu, including the son raised by Lu.

She had gotten along with him before when she lived in the palace. He was narrow-minded and had a lot of cunning ideas, and she had never used them in the right way.

In other words, the prince didn't notice it at all. He just thought that Lu was well-educated, gentle and considerate.

"Yes, mother. My wife knows."

"Got it, mother, we are fine."

"Go ahead. Your father should be back soon, so you won't have to get tired of each other. Xin'er stared at Chi'er, and said, "You've lost some weight. You look a little thinner."

"I lost five pounds!!! Mom!!!"

"Then work hard and lose 50 pounds!"

"Yeah, you are really my dear mother——"

"Don't act like a spoiled child. It's not pretty. Let your wife act like a spoiled child in the future. It will be pleasing to the eyes."

"..."

After the couple returned to Yande Palace, Zhang Xin fell asleep quickly because everything was going well recently.

It was Zhu Gaochi who tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.

When his mother said this today, he suddenly remembered what Zhang Xin said before -

If she were Zhu Yunwen, with her uncles, brothers and brothers stationed in the vassal state with strong troops, and the emperor was far away and surrounded by them, she would not even be able to sleep.

Cousin Xiongying, the former crown prince's grandson, was taken by the crown grandfather and uncle to study and meet people. From his academic performance to his behavior, everyone spoke highly of him.

The Emperor's grandfather was extremely satisfied.

If my uncle and cousin were both there, the Lan family would not have declined, everyone would have been able to sleep soundly, and they would have worked hard to build a good Ming Dynasty and create a peaceful and prosperous era.

But the current crown prince, Zhu Yunwen, was unknown before his cousin Xiongying died. Apart from following the crowd in school, he just followed Lu.

Growing up in the rear house, it is possible that her train of thought is similar to that of the women trapped in the backyard.

His mother, who had seen the outside world, obviously did not think highly of Zhu Yunwen and his mother.

People who have been looked down upon for a long time will always lack confidence even if they climb up.

So, it is not surprising at all that Zhang Xin’s insomnia happened to Zhu Yunwen?

Once his royal grandfather passed away, without this huge mountain overhead, he would be in power. In order to sleep well, would he be shortsighted and immediately take action against his uncles?

The Prince of Yan's Mansion is in danger——

【Small Science:

Daning - Duolun area in Inner Mongolia. Located outside Xifengkou, connected to Liaozuo in the east and Xuanfu in the west, it has an important strategic location.

Ning Wang Zhu Quan - He was smart and studious since childhood. He was named Ning Wang at the age of thirteen and officially went to Daning Guard at the age of fifteen. He was one of the few young and promising sons of Zhu Yuanzhang. Later, for well-known reasons, Ning Wang left Daning, and the northern defense line collapsed. 】
