Ming Dynasty: 100-year-old Heavenly Master, Zhu Yuanzhang’s biological father

The old storyteller turned his head and was startled when he saw Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment. Although the old storyteller in front of him did not look like the old Celestial Master, Zhu Yuanzhang was sure that he was him. He was wearing a mask or something.

This voice is so familiar to him

“If you want to listen, listen well. The old storyteller glared,”Why did you interrupt me?” who do you think You Are? Your Majesty? Even if the emperor comes, he must listen obediently.”

He is the old heavenly master Zhu Shizhen.

Why are you here to tell stories?

That’s because he has recently been comprehending the power of all living beings, so he wants to come among all living beings.

So he put on a mask and came to the teahouse to tell stories. What he said was what he had read in his previous life. He didn’t expect that the martial arts novel would become very popular after just one day of publication.

“Be bold!”Mao Xiang roared.

He didn’t recognize the old Heavenly Master, so he picked up the knife and went up to arrest people.

Zhu Yuanzhang quickly blocked him and said in a deep voice:”Don’t mess around, sit down and listen.”

The person who was listening to the book was now interrupted by two people and was very angry.

“Who? If you don’t listen to the book, get out”

“You come here to show off your power, believe it or not, I will break your legs?”

“What I was saying was wonderful, but I was interrupted by you. If I hadn’t wanted to listen to a book, I would have let you go out sideways today.”

Zhu Yuanzhang knew that this had aroused public anger.

He didn’t care, and quickly waved his hands:”Everyone, I’m sorry, continue to listen, we will be silent.”

Zhu Shizhen was sitting on the high platform, drinking hot tea and eating melon seeds.

“Old gentleman, please continue. Has Xiangyang City been defended in the end?”Someone shouted.

Everyone was looking forward to the next battle in Xiangyang.

Zhu Shizhen glanced over and waved:

“Everyone!”

“Today’s storytelling ends here”

“If you want to know what happened, please come back in five days.”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was an explosion downstairs. Everyone was waiting for you to talk about the battle in Xiangyang. Why do you want to come back in five days?

Some people slammed the table anxiously.

“No, I’ll add more money. We must finish talking about the Xiangyang War today.”

“Old gentleman, are you too lazy? One lecture in five days? Wouldn’t it be nice to earn more money?”

“Yes, the battle in Xiangyang will be known in five days? So how did you spend these five days?”

“Old gentleman, you should continue as you get older.”

No matter what everyone said, Zhu Shizhen would always smile and shake his head, pack his bags, and go out.

……

Zhu Yuanzhang quickly chased after him.

At this time, Mao Xiang came to his senses and followed Zhu Yuanzhang from a distance. Having been in Jinyiwei for a long time, he understood that if he knew too much, he would die sooner.

“Dad, what are you doing looking like this? If you are short of money, tell us.” Zhu Yuanzhang said

“Come on, you’re just so stingy.”Zhu Shizhen glared

“Then you can still afford it, right? You don’t need to make money by telling stories, right? Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly realized,”No, you are richer than us. Is the dark world of the capital controlled by your Qin Tian Jian?” You make money every day”

“Are you settling accounts with me? I want to buy medicine and make elixirs for free, right?”Zhu Shizhen spread his hands,”Also, Qin Tianjian wants to train a group of weapon refiners and build more warships, which will cost money. I don’t care, you have to pay this money from the treasury”

“Come out as soon as you come out.”Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, then frowned,”It’s just that we don’t have that much money. Now the Ming Dynasty’s annual persuasion is only about 60 million taels.”

“Open the sea and conduct overseas trade. Zhu Shizhen said,”You didn’t dare to open the sea before because you didn’t have enough strength. What are you afraid of now?””

Zhu Yuanzhang was thoughtful.

He pulled Zhu Shizhen into a tavern and chuckled:”Dad, let’s discuss opening up the sea and conducting overseas trade while drinking.

Zhu Shizhen looked wary:”Please, I didn’t bring any money.””

“Hey, we just saw it. The teahouse shopkeeper gave you a bag of broken silver, talking about book money, right?”

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Shizhen’s pocket with cunning eyes,”As a father, you are reluctant to treat your son to a drink?”

“How come I have such a stingy son like you?”Zhu Shizhen was really speechless.

The two entered the restaurant and found a private room by the window, with the Qinhuai River under the window.

Zhu Yuanzhang ordered a table of dishes, ordered two bottles of wine, and chuckled:”I’ve got half a day to spare, dad. , let’s have a few drinks with you today.”

Zhu Shizhen really wanted to talk to Zhu Yuanzhang about opening up the sea. Only in this way can he get money quickly.

After three glasses of wine, he settled the accounts with Zhu Yuanzhang:

“Silk was sold in the Ming Dynasty for 6 taels per piece, but when sold overseas it was 15 taels per piece. Each trip was worth 9 taels of silver, and the 6 taels of silver itself still made money. In other words, if it sold for one hundred Ten thousand pieces of silk, profit of 9 million taels”

“Damn it, don’t you understand this? You actually don’t eat such a big piece of fat. Let me tell you, that’s how Shen Wansan made his fortune. Zhu

Yuanzhang took a sip of wine slowly and spread his hands:”So we ransacked Shen Wansan’s house.””

Zhu Shizhen:”……”

“If you play like this, you won’t have any friends. He said speechlessly,”Besides, it was a one-time deal.” What we want is long-term profits”

“Dad, it’s not that simple.”Zhu Yuanzhang said,”With a large demand for silk, more mulberries are needed. Is it possible to change rice to mulberries? It will definitely not work.”

“Who wants you to change rice into mulberry? Zhu Shizhen glared,”Nanyang, East Asia, the place is huge, right?” We harvest mulberries locally and produce them locally.”

Zhu Yuanzhang’s eyes lit up instantly.

Zhu Shizhen patted him on the shoulder, looking like he hated iron and said:”The pattern is open. As long as the strength is strong enough, wherever the Ming warship passes, there will be wealth.”

“Dad, we have always paid attention to persuading people with virtue since ancient times.” Zhu Yuanzhang said

“It is virtue that persuades people. Zhu Shizhen taught respectfully,”Do you know what it means to hear the Tao in the morning and die in the evening?” If I find out the way to your house in the morning, I will kill you in the evening. Do you know what it means to make peace with what has come? Now that they are here, bury them alive”

“Well……”Zhu Yuanzhang held his forehead and said,”Father, you still understand clearly, so let’s just do it like this. Kaihai”

“If you have many sons, choose one of them to form the Ming Dynasty fleet and go to sea to be a robber or, oh no, do business.” Zhu Shizhen said,”I’m telling you, there is an annual output of six thousand kilograms of grain in South America.”

Zhu Yuanzhang’s eyes shone brightly.

He expressed his full support for the entire battleship, which can both fly in the air and swim in the sea.

……

A shocking news spread throughout the capital.

Qin Tian Jian is about to recruit outer disciples, and this time he wants to recruit thousands of people.

Everyone in the capital was boiling. They had all seen the immortal methods of the old Heavenly Master, and the scene of the old Heavenly Master’s disciples, King Yan, King Xiang, the emperor’s grandson, and others, annihilating the eminent Buddhist monks with a snap of their fingers, was still vivid in their minds.

They all want to send their children to Qintian Prison.

Moreover, Qin Tian Jian is recruiting disciples this time. Anyone can sign up regardless of their background, but only those who have passed Qin Tian Jian’s review can get started.

For a time, both wealthy families and ordinary people were preparing to send their children to Qintian Prison.

Lu Mansion.

As the head of the family, Lu Ben immediately summoned several descendants of the Lu family and asked them to register at the Qintian Prison.

He wanted to seize this opportunity and let someone from the Lu family enter Qintian Prison.

Not only the Lu family, but also the descendants of Huaixi nobles also signed up. (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Ten days later.

The selection of Qintian supervisors officially began, and at one time there were more than 30,000 people.

More than 30,000 people gathered below the Qintian Prison, waiting to be selected. Everyone was also curious about how the Qintian Prison would choose.

Just when everyone was curious, a ball of red light fell.

King Yan Zhu Di stood in the sky, and his voice fell like thunder:”Those who have a red halo above their heads have passed the review. Those who do not have one, please go back.”

Then, there was an exclamation:

“I have it, hahaha, I have it on top of my head, I was selected”

“I was also selected, and I was actually selected into the Qintian Prison”

“Oh my god, I have it above my head.”

There were exclamations one after another. The people who passed the review were also all kinds of strange. There were sons of nobles, scholars, hawkers, and even beggars.

“The chosen ones will be sent to the Heavenly Prison today, while the others will leave quickly. Zhu Di coaxed.

More people were disappointed.

Because only a thousand people were selected, most of them were not selected. They were not convinced.

“Why?”

“A beggar can be selected, why can’t I?”[]

“Yes, unfair.”

The mood of dissatisfaction spread instantly, and soon the crowd was furious.

At this moment, a bolt of thunder and lightning fell, accompanied by a majestic voice:”Want to cause trouble in Qintianjian? Do you want to be struck by lightning?”

It was the voice of the old Tianji. The tens of thousands of people downstairs in Tianji quickly dispersed.

0Nima, if you don’t leave, you will really be struck by lightning.

Zhu Shizhen will have to kill the thousand outer disciples he recruited. They train him to be a weapon refiner.

If he has the magic technique to make a magic weapon, he can train weapon refiners in batches. Then, with these thousands of weapon refiners, he can refine various magic weapons.

Qin Tian Jian recruits outside disciples, and they go as quickly as they come. No one knows that

Qin Tian Jian will make a choice so quickly. Naturally, he is disappointed if he is not selected. However, Qin Tian Jian releases the news. They will continue to recruit outer disciples in the future, which also gives them hope.

……

East Palace.

With the recent hot weather, it feels more like a dull fortress.

Within the palace wall, the trees stood quietly, their leaves motionless, and even the birds were rare. Only the cicadas were chirping desperately on the branches, as if complaining about this difficult summer.

The glazed tiles of the palace sparkled in the sun, but there was a sense of heat. The red palace walls reflect the dazzling sunlight, making people afraid to look directly. The gauze curtains in the corridor also lost their effectiveness at this moment, and they brought bursts of hot wind as they fluttered.

Madam Lu stood under the curtain, frowning.

Standing next to her was Lu Ben, with anger in his eyes:”The Lu family went to the Lu family for more than a dozen children, but none of them were chosen. Huh, what Qin Tianjian said about fairness is bullshit.”

“Dad, if you can’t get in, that’s it.”

Ms. Lu frowned slightly, completely disappointed with Qin Tianjian, and snorted,”They probably won’t choose our Lu family.”

She remembered the last time she bumped into the Heavenly Master in front of Kunning Palace. The Heavenly Master also said that he would destroy her as a princess.

During this time, she had been worried, fearing that the emperor would really destroy her when he came back. However, after so many days, there was no response from the emperor

, and she gradually felt relieved.

“That’s all.”Lu Ben sighed softly.

Suddenly, Zhu Yunwen’s cry came from behind.

Both Lu and Lu Ben were shocked and ran over quickly.

When they ran to take a look, they were shocked and saw Zhu Xiongying pressing Zhu Yunwen against the wall. , while Zhu Yunxi was firing his bow from left to right, slapping Zhu Yunwen in the face

“stop!” Mrs. Lu yelled.

She and Lu Ben rushed over, but Zhu Xiongying raised his hand and stopped them.

“Zhu Xiongying, are you so presumptuous that you beat your brother in front of me?”Mr. Lu glared

“Huh, he was the one I hit. Zhu Xiongying looked coldly,”Who told him to be rude to Heavenly Master?””

“Stinky Taoist priests bring trouble to the court, my mother-in-law said so……”Zhu Yunwen still wanted to be tough.

Snapped!

5.2 Zhu Yunxi knocked him to the ground

“Auntie, is this how you teach your son?”Zhu Xiongying looked at Mr. Lu coldly,”Even my father respects the Heavenly Master.”

“presumptuous! Lu Ben yelled,”Is this how you treat the Crown Princess?” She is your elder. Have you learned in Qintian Prison that there is no distinction between superiority and inferiority?”

“Mr. Lu, I am teaching your students about respect and inferiority.”Zhu Xiongying said sternly,”I, Zhu Xiongying, am the eldest grandson. As an elder brother, if I see my younger brother disrespecting me, I will educate him well.”

Pah!

He slapped Zhu Yunwen on the face again, and shouted coldly:”When you see eldest brother in the future, you must know how to salute, be respectful, and remember your identity. You are a bastard.”

“you you……”Lu’s face became ferocious with anger,”I will definitely tell your father”

“go.”Zhu Xiongying spread his hands and said,”I will also tell my father that his son Zhu Yunwen cursed the Heavenly Master, and it was his mother and concubine who taught him. Lu

‘s face turned blue and white.

Zhu Xiongying glanced at him coldly and said in a cold voice:”This time, I will teach him a lesson. If there is a next time, I, the elder brother, will make him remember what dignity and inferiority are.””

After saying that, he threw up his sleeves and walked away.

Suddenly Lu was able to move and hurried to Zhu Yunwen and helped him up.

“Mother concubine.”Zhu Yunwen burst into tears.”They bullied me.”

“Yunwen, go and see your father.” Lu said

“No! Lu Ben stopped them,”The emperor is in the Wenhua Palace right now. The emperor hates people crying the most. It’s better to wait for His Royal Highness to come back.””

Mrs. Lu gritted her teeth and nodded.
