First Prince of Ming Dynasty - Chapter 775
Chapter 775 Wei Guogong
A group of people accompanied Deng Yu across the Neiwulong Bridge to the Fengtian Gate, and then stopped. Although it was not impossible to follow in, it was a bit unpleasant. After all, returning to Beijing was also for the sake of their children and in-laws. Well blended.
But this matter is more than just this matter. They met Deng Yu in advance and accompanied him all the way here, which also showed their attitude. We are our own brothers, and the superior is now the Holy One.
Deng Yu didn’t say anything, smiled and bowed his hands to signal them, and then followed the **** who came to receive him by order, went in, bypassed the Fengtian Hall and was heading to the Jinshen Hall, and just passed the side of the Huagai Hall, he saw the head wearing a mask in the distance. Wushayi Shanguan, Emperor Zhu, who was wearing a yellow tuanlong narrow-sleeved round-neck robe and a red cross-collared shirt, was also walking this way.
The **** who led the way hastily moved to the side and bowed his head enviously: “Hey, the emperor personally welcomed you, the Duke of the country is really a prosperous family.”
Deng Yu’s eyes turned red, and he took a quick walk before bowing down and saluting: “My minister Deng Yu has been summoned back to Beijing, and I am here to see the Holy Majesty, long live my emperor…”
Zhu Yuanzhang grabbed Deng Yu and laughed loudly: “Okay, just come back, let’s let the queen prepare a few side dishes for wine, and you have to have a good meal with us tonight.”
Then he looked Deng Yu up and down a few times: “This dusty man, he just entered Beijing and didn’t go back to the mansion to change clothes, and he doesn’t have any military affairs, why should he be in such a hurry, come here, let Duke Wei go to the hot spring to take a bath first.”
Deng Yu quickly begged for forgiveness: “How can I take a bath in the palace, just wash my face first.”
“Stop being polite to us, we are waiting for you to drink, and lunch is useless.”
Duke Wei, who was born with supernatural power, was forcibly dragged towards Tangchi by two young eunuchs. Zhu Yuanzhang watched them go away cheerfully, and the warm and friendly smile on his face gradually faded.
“Are they gone?”
The commander of the pro-army Duwei Mansion, Mao Xiang, walked out from one side: “Runan Hou Gong Changhou and others went back to the Dadu Dufu Mansion together.”
“We all need to know what they said today.”
“No.”
Zhu Yuanzhang’s bright yellow tuanlong robe with his hands on his back is very dazzling in the sun, and the surrounding court ladies, eunuchs and guards dare not look directly at the majesty of the supreme being in the world.
This is the problem. The Huaixi warriors lack this kind of awe towards him. As a person who came up together, I know that the so-called real dragon emperor will also fart and grit his teeth like ordinary people.
Although there is awe, it is not from the bottom of the heart. These generals who have broken through the mountains of corpses and blood have extraordinary courage and cunning. Once they are moved, they will be more direct and powerful than civil servants or other rebels. Regardless of the consequences.
Worries often start with those who are at peace. Those who are bright can burn before they are formed, and those who are ignorant are still covered by what they have already seen.
Zhu Yuanzhang is undoubtedly the enlightened man. The two or three years since the founding of the country have been enough to make it clear that most of his brothers are useless except for being brave. During the war, they were the destroyers of the Yuan Empire. After the war, they became the new dynasty. Disruptor of law, discipline and order.
Relying on the power in their hands, they greedily grab everything they can see, occupy land everywhere, take slaves privately, plunder people’s wealth, oppress the good, drive soldiers, greedy and unscrupulous.
Not only the heroes broke the law themselves, but their relatives and friends did not take the law of the country seriously. Many relatives, family members, even tenant servants and fire fighters of the heroes also took advantage of the situation to violate the law, tyrannizing the village and oppressing the people. Ji, became the local overlord.
Compared to Pan Fujie’s faults, it is also because of these reasons that the common people rebelled continuously in the Ming Dynasty. There are civil officials’ corruption, and Wu Xun’s laissez-faire relatives.
Civil servants sometimes have to borrow their titles, but Wu Xun needs fame, and even brags that he is imitating his predecessors, but in fact it is just a manifestation of the consciousness of small farmers and the nature of hooligans. They are in high positions but lazy to learn. I just feel that I won the world when I didn’t know anything, and now I’m still learning a fart.
A bold and reckless man can gain a foothold in troubled times, but he will never be able to survive in governing the world. If he does not learn, he will not make progress. He will have power but no virtue. If virtue is not matched, there will be disasters.
After a few cups of tea, the two monarchs and ministers were seated in the Hall of Martial Arts, and Deng Yu was no longer so disciplined when he was at the wine table. He stretched out his chopsticks and even chewed two dishes slowly. I haven’t tasted the craftsmanship for a year or two.”
In the past, their first meal after their triumphant return was always cooked by the sister-in-law herself. Now I think about it, I am really touched.
“Haha, eat more, we haven’t eaten for a long time, and this meal is still in your favor. Now, my sister-in-law takes her grandson with her every day, so it’s easy to stop cooking.”
Deng Yu said enviously: “His Royal Highness has two royal grandchildren, and I heard that there are two nobles in the East Palace who are pregnant with the blood of the Tian family. The time when the grandson of the Holy One will be full of joy is just around the corner. It is really enviable.”
After finishing speaking, he winked and said: “The prince is like a father, the ability to reproduce is passed down in the same line as the emperor’s. The twelve sons of the emperor will already be able to leave now.”
“Brother, my younger brother has only three sons. If it’s an imperial physician in the palace, what’s the point… Well, don’t forget about my younger brother.”
There is no man who is unwilling to listen to such flattery. The two of them exchanged glasses enthusiastically, and you come and go. Soon, the jar of wine will bottom out. It is said that they will drink so much.
It’s just that they all have something to say, but due to their status and status, it’s not easy to speak up, so they want to use wine to find opportunities. Zhu Yuanzhang has already sat beside Deng Yu: “Bo Yan, our brother is about to get married, this is It’s a happy event for a kiss.”
Deng Yu also smiled and said: “Fortunately, the Holy Majesty favored me, and my younger brother has already sent people to the south of the Yangtze River to prepare a dowry for my little girl.”
Zhu Yuanzhang asked, seemingly drunk but not drunk: “Oh, okay, has anyone said anything weird to you during this time?”
“Strange words? I don’t have much impression of them, but since they are strange words, they must be unreasonable, so why bother?”
“Haha, that’s true, just ignore it.” Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head: “Hey, I’m sorry to say that, the second child is not very successful.”
Deng Yu frowned: “What is the superior talking about, His Royal Highness Prince Jin is a man of heaven, and he was born to be a dragon and phoenix among human beings. You are too harsh, and you must be comparing the princes to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.”
“Hey, if they are all compared with His Royal Highness, I am afraid that the world will be ashamed and die. It can’t be compared like this.”
Deng Yu drank another large glass of wine: “The king of Jin also went out with the army in the past, but he lived in the palace for a long time in the past two years, and he is a little unfamiliar with everything. It will be better to practice more.”
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled with satisfaction: “Yeah, that’s why I want to start a family and start a business. In the future, I will have to rely on you to give me some advice, half a son-in-law.”
“By the way, Muying just sent the report yesterday. Deng Zhen has made great achievements in the management of Puding and Pu’an. He has also quelled several rebellions of the local Tu people. It is quite like you when you used to govern Xiangyang. Let us There are all successors.”
Deng Yu also hasn’t heard from his son for some time. It’s just that the transportation in Yunnan and Guizhou is inconvenient.
“Ping Xihou has a good leader, and he deserves to be brought up by the Holy Majesty himself. Yun Gong has won the wind of being a father, and he will be a commander in the future. As for the talents of Deng Zhenzhong, it is enough not to delay the important affairs of the military and the country.”
“You, just finished talking about me, so you are being too harsh on your son. We see that the children are all good, and Biaoer often praises Deng Zhen for his safe work and appointment to important positions.”
Both of them got a satisfactory answer from the temptation, and the pace of drinking slowed down. However, both of them had big appetites. Empress Ma’s few small dishes were quickly eaten up, and the dining room hurriedly delivered them again. Let’s have some chicken, duck and fish to go with the wine.
In fact, it is not expected that Zhu Yu, as the leader of the kings, must be the first to entrust the feudal land to the feudal vassal. Naturally, his wife was also decided after careful consideration. For those fools.
