Chapter 140 Arrogance
Zhu Biao and his party returned to the inn. On the way, Zhu Biao asked Liu Jin to go down and buy some gadgets, and distribute them to the young brothers and sisters after returning to the palace.
Shunshui favors are not for nothing. I originally bought them for my sister. Buying more and expressing some kindness will make the harem quieter.
Zhu Biao and Song Lian sat on the attic on the second floor, looking at the endless stream of people below, Zhu Biao asked: "The lives of the people in the capital have also improved. I don't know when other states and counties will resume their prosperity."
Song Lian said with a smile: "Your Highness, why should you be impatient. Governing a big country is like cooking a small dish. Don't be in a hurry. It takes time for everything to grow, and so is the restoration of national strength."
Zhu Biao nodded, looking at the crowd below with a faint sense of satisfaction in his heart, as if seeing them live well, everything is worth it.
I think the same is true of my father. Only the ardent love for the people will not allow them to be wronged. This is also the difference between my father and other emperors in the past.
After a while, Liu Jin led the people back with various small objects, and then Song Lian left, and Zhu Biao got up and sent them to the door. They made an appointment to see the Enke examination room tomorrow.
Zhu Biao was also preparing to return to the palace, got into the carriage and drove slowly all the way, Zhu Biao opened the curtains, and saw many acquaintances at the dance pavilion and song stage, honorable generals, all holding pretty women in their arms, their faces full of joy. with a happy smile.
Zhu Biao glanced silently. He didn't care about the generals having fun. After all, without military power, these rough guys couldn't live at home. The court had actually begun to withdraw military power. Most of these generals were false title.
Zhu Biao looked at Mao Xiang and asked, "Are there spies here?"
Mao Xiang's face turned bitter. Without Zhu Yuanzhang's order, he would not tell anyone about the spies distributed by the military commander's mansion. Now that His Royal Highness asked, it stands to reason that even if he told His Highness, the Holy Majesty would not blame him, but he himself Lost the foundation of foothold.
He is the emperor's lone minister. Strictly speaking, the prince is not the object of his allegiance. If it were in other dynasties, the prince would even be the object of his key surveillance.
Zhu Biao also understood Mao Xiang, looked at him and said: "After you return to the palace, you can ask my father, the emperor, and say that I want to hear what the generals have to say after drinking."
Mao Xiang immediately breathed a sigh of relief and bowed to agree, Zhu Biao put down the curtains, recalling what he had seen and heard today, and unknowingly returned to the gate of the palace.
The commander of the forbidden army guarding the gate lifted the curtain of the car and glanced at Zhu Biao, said that he was offended, and then checked whether there were other people in the frame.
This is also to determine whether Zhu Biao has been held hostage. In short, it is still very troublesome to drive a carriage to enter the inner palace.
Zhu Biao returned to the East Palace, Mao Xiang returned to Zhu Yuanzhang, Liu Jin and the others carried a lot of things to the harem to distribute, which was a reward from the eldest brother of the prince.
Nuan Yu held a woven grasshopper and a wooden windmill in her hand. These were specially left by Liu Jin for the people in the East Palace, and Yunjin and the others also had them.
Besides, Liu Jin was not greedy for credit, so he said that the crown prince left it for them on purpose, so Zhu Biao would naturally not say anything. He was also used to Liu Jin doing these small things well, and he didn't need to ask him anything.
Zhu Biao took a page, and it contained the records of those generals, nobles, and civil servants talking freely in the fireworks and wine shops. The most exquisite thing is that there are not only detailed descriptions of expressions, but also portraits, which are still realistic.
Zhu Biao flipped through the portraits with great interest. It was quite interesting to see people he was familiar with painted like this. Finally, he found a portrait of Sapphire. The famous generals clinked glasses.
Zhu Biao looked at the records of that day. It was just after returning from the Northern Expedition that Lan Yu started to say after drinking too much.
Lan Yu also said to the generals present: "What is the only Liang Guogong?
There are many arrogant words in the back, Zhu Biao couldn't help covering his head after reading it, even if it was his direct line general, he couldn't help but want to hang Lan Yu up and smoke, this person is too free after leaving the battlefield ego.
Now Lan Yu is also the dignified Duke of Liang, and Chang Yuchun is his brother-in-law but not his father, so I am ashamed to teach him a random lesson, Lan Yu is even more arrogant now.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Lan Yu coldly. Now that there are many generals in the Ming Dynasty, a mere arrogant Lan Yu is not in his eyes.
Zhu Biao shook his head. Historically, as soon as he died, the Lanyu case broke out. This person is by no means suppressed by ordinary people. No wonder Zhu Yuanzhang was worried about making Zhu Yunxi his successor, but chose Zhu Yunwen instead.
You must know that Zhu Yunxi is the son of the Chang family, that is, the second son of Zhu Biao. After the eldest son Zhu Xiongying died young, even if the Lu family was restored, it should be the son of Zhu Biaoyuan's wife as the first heir.
It seems that Lan Yu's character caused all of this. After all, if Zhu Yunxi is established, Lan Yu must be escorted. With the power of Lan Yu's queen at that time, it can indeed be done, but the biggest problem is that foreign relatives intervene in politics. There is no way to avoid it.
Lan Yu is indeed a genius on the battlefield. Once he gains power, the other kings of the Ming Dynasty will not be able to suppress him.
But in fact, these are all good. What Zhu Yuanzhang is most worried about is that Lanyu has no son, but he has a daughter and married a son of Zhu Yuanzhang. That is to say, if Zhu Yunxi died suddenly, the prince who got Lanyu With full support, there may not be no chance to get involved in the throne.
Lan Yu is Zhu Yunxi's uncle, that's right, but where can he kiss Lan Yu's own grandson?
Of course, all these are just Zhu Biao's thoughts. After all, Zhu Biao is not very clear about the political situation in the last years of Hongwu. He just simulated Zhu Yuanzhang's worries.
Sapphire must be taught a lesson, even deliberately suppressed and sharpened. Zhu Biao originally admired Sapphire's talent, but now he is a little disgusted with his character. No monarch can bear such a general .
Zhu Biao looked again, the more he looked, the more headache he got. Most of the generals, especially the Huaixi people gathered together, there was nothing to dare to say. Although they did not reach the level of Sapphire, they did not respect him imperial power.
Civil servants have kept a low profile a lot, but they have also done a lot of things to form parties for personal gain, colluding with each other. Although Li Shanchang and other big bosses did not end in person, their disciples represent them and manage power.
Hu Weiyong has recently been interested in developing friendship in the army. He is also from Huaixi, and with Li Shanchang behind him, the generals of Huaixi do not regard him as an outsider. Recently, they are very warm.
