Chapter 11 Is there any salvation for our son?

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the young man excitedly and said, "May I have the name of the immortal?"

"Li Ming."

"Immortal Li Ming, we are Zhu Yuanzhang, we have something to do with you..."

Li Ming interrupted him, his eyes flashed, and he said, "Your name is Zhu Yuanzhang, is it Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty?"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded proudly.

Li Ming's eyes were moved. In his eyes, the old man should be a hungry man.

No one would have thought that the clothes were covered with patches, washed white, and malnourished would be Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

According to historical records, Zhu Yuanzhang was born in a poor peasant family, ranked fourth in the family and eighth in the family brothers, so he is also called Zhu Chongba.

In the third year of Zhizheng, a drought occurred in Haozhou.

The following spring, another severe locust plague and plague occurred.

In less than half a month, Zhu Yuanzhang's father, elder brother and mother died one after another.

Only Zhu Yuanzhang and his second brother were left. The family had no money to buy a coffin, and there was not even a piece of land to bury their relatives. The neighbor Liu Jizu gave them a cemetery.

The two brothers found a few torn clothes to wrap the bodies and buried their parents on the land of the Liu family.

In order to survive, Zhu Yuanzhang and his second brother, sister-in-law and nephew were forced to separate and escape.

When Zhu Yuanzhang was desperate, he went to join the monk Gao Bin of Huangjue Temple and ordained him as a monk and became a monk.

He swept the floor in the temple every day, burned incense, beat bells and drums, cooked and washed clothes, and was scolded by the old monk.

Soon, there was a famine in the local area and the temple could not receive alms, so the abbot had to send the monks to travel around and beg for alms.

In this way, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was only 17 years old, had to leave the temple to beg for a wandering place.

Zhu Yuanzhang begged while walking, and returned to Huangjue Temple in the eighth year of Zhizheng.

During these three years of wandering, he traveled all over the famous capital of Huaixi.

He came into contact with the customs and cultures of various places, saw the world, broadened his horizons, and accumulated social life experience. This life had a profound impact on Zhu Yuanzhang's birth.

The three years of traveling outside were also the period of turbulent peasant uprisings at the end of the Yuan Dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang received a letter from his childhood partner Tang He, inviting him to join Guo Zixing's rebel army.

Just at this moment, his senior brother secretly told him that someone knew about this letter and wanted to inform him.

So Zhu Yuanzhang went to join Guo Zixing's Red Turban Army.

This year, Zhu Yuanzhang was twenty-five years old.

After Zhu Yuanzhang joined the army, he was brave in combat, smart and flexible, and was very knowledgeable about literature and writing, and soon became a brave general of the rebel army.

Later, he captured Yingtian, defeated Chen Han, unified Jiangnan, established the Ming Dynasty, and pacified the world.

He died at the age of 69 because of overwork.

There was once a history book introducing Zhu Yuanzhang, saying that he was a model worker and a workaholic, working 18 hours a day and only slept for a few hours.

He is in charge of everything. Someone once described him as if his neighbor lost a dog, he would take care of it.

All kinds of laws were formulated by one's own strength.

He was born as a peasant. Even if he became an emperor, he maintained the habit of thrift and frugality. He dressed very simply. Sometimes his clothes were torn and he would apply a patch to continue wearing it.

This person is Zhu Yuanzhang, known in history as Emperor Hongwu.

Back then, the history teacher talked endlessly, and Li Ming listened with relish.

If ordinary people have status and wealth, they will definitely expand, but this Ming Dynasty Taizu did not and still dressed simply.

This can surpass 90% of people.

This is the charm of Taizu of the Ming Dynasty.

"Do you know us?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked excitedly when he saw Li Ming's expression strange, his wrinkled face was full of smiles.

"Of course I know that your deeds are with me, and no one doesn't know." Li Ming looked at the old man, respected him and admired him from the bottom of his heart.

His story is a legend.

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little curious: "What do people in your place say to us?"

"At the beginning, the country depends on fighting." A sentence came to Li Ming's mind, which was very appropriate to describe him.

Hearing his words, Zhu Yuanzhang also smiled, saying that it should be the time when he begged, but he had no taboos.

"Immortal Li Ming, we have one thing we want to discuss with you."

"I know what's going on." Li Ming said.

"You know?"

"If you are at your age, if you touch your greatest things, then there is only one thing. Prince Zhu Biao is seriously ill. Am I right?"

Li Ming looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and was indeed surprised to see his expression.

There is nothing to surprise this. It is said in history that Zhu Biao was the prince who Zhu Yuanzhang tried his best to train, hoping that he could manage the Ming Dynasty for him in the future.

However, in the end, the white-haired man gave the black-haired man.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Li Ming: "Immortal Li Ming, since you know the matter of the prince, we don't need to say much. As long as you can save our son, gold, silver, jewelry, silver and gold, you can take whatever conditions you want, we will agree to you."

He wanted to exchange with Li Ming.

Give him a mountain of gold and silver, and let him save his son's life.

"Silver Mountain, what's the use of mine?" Li Ming doesn't like gold, silver and jewelry. He is a cultivator, and money is something outside his body.

Can't gold and silver impress the immortals?

That's right.

The goal pursued by the immortal is different from that of the world. It is freedom and immortality, and money is like dirt to him.

Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while and said, "As long as you set the conditions, we can meet them."

Seeing that Li Ming didn't say anything, Zhu Yuanzhang asked again: "Is our son still saved?"

Li Ming looked at him, and it turned out to be as historical records. Zhu Yuanzhang used to calling himself us, and even if he became emperor, he would not change it.

This person is very distinctive. He is obviously an emperor but he wears patched clothes. However, it is precisely this ordinary person who looks like he can create the Ming Dynasty.

"Is there any rescue?"

“What are the conditions?”

Seeing that Li Ming didn't speak, Zhu Yuanzhang seemed even more nervous, afraid that he would shake his head and say he was helpless.
