"The imperial court has rewarded a lot. All five of their families have received approval from the government, and the pensions are sufficient. There is no shortage. Everyone thinks of His Majesty in their hearts and knows that this is all because of Your Majesty."
The old man probably felt a little emotional in his heart, waving his hand and pointing to the door.
There were the two young men who were protecting the old village chief when Zhu Yunxi led his troops to hunt down Ashikaga Plum Butterfly last night.
At this moment, the two boys were hiding outside the door, turning their heads into the room from time to time, looking curiously at what their old emperor looked like.
He is no different from the old man in Zhuangzi next door.
The two looked at each other and couldn't help but think to themselves that their old emperor seemed to be very approachable.
But as the old village chief waved his finger over, the emperor also looked over.
The two boys suddenly panicked for no reason and hurriedly retracted their heads outside.
The old village chief was already talking nonchalantly: "These two boys also said that when they grow up, they will also join our Ming Dynasty Guards to protect our Ming Dynasty for Your Majesty."
At this time, the household registration system was still strictly enforced.
But if ordinary people want to join the military, there is no prohibition.
Zhu Yuanzhang burst into laughter as he listened to the old village chief's introduction, and also waved to his good grandson.
"This boy will supervise the affairs of the new army after the Chinese New Year. Let them find this boy later. He will train in the army for a few years. Then he will go back to the battlefield and kill the enemy for our Ming Dynasty!"
The old village chief's face suddenly lit up with joy.
This is a promise made by the emperor himself, and it is worth a thousand dollars!
The old village chief immediately shouted outside: "Why don't you come in quickly to thank His Majesty for His grace?"
The two boys had already heard the emperor's words, and their hearts had been filled with joy. As soon as they heard the old village chief's call, they rushed in and knelt on the ground to thank them.
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand with a smile and started chatting with the old village chief.
Before I knew it, we started talking about things like how to farm.
Zhu Yunxi looked at the snow outside and it seemed that there was no sign of stopping. He motioned to the two girls with his eyes. While the old man was having a lively chat with the old village chief, he hugged the little Mimi Huhu who had been roasted.
Uncle Twenty-Third came to the side.
I didn’t dare to let Uncle Twenty-Three, who had just been warming himself by the fire, run outside immediately.
"Move around, rub your hands and feet, pat your body, and I will take you out to build a snowman later, and then ask Yutian to come over and pick up the snowball."
Tang Queqing looked at the man tenderly and stepped forward to help Uncle Twenty-Third, who was still dazed and sleepy in the lake, stretch his muscles.
Mu Caiyun was in high spirits. For someone like her who had never seen snow since she was a child in Yunnan, this heavy snowfall in Yingtian City was the first time in her life.
It's a pity for my eldest brother. Ever since the emperor's old man nodded and allowed me to stay in the East Palace and marry the emperor's grandson as a concubine, I hurried back to Yunnan with the New Year's gift from the old man to the Xiping Hou Mansion. I never had the chance to meet him.
I saw the snow in the sky.
At the scene, only the young eunuch Yu Tian was waiting on the side, with a bitter look on his face.
Together, His Highness and others build snowmen, have snowball fights, and throw snowballs. Only he is the one who gets hurt and catches the snowballs.
Should you pick it up with your hands or your face?
After a while, a burst of lively cheers came from the yard outside the house.
It wasn't until Zhu Yuanzhang had lunch at Laoshan Palace that he would never have had otherwise, and when he saw that the wind and snow outside were getting lighter, he ended his chat with the old village chief with unsatisfied feelings.
"That old guy actually thinks that we don't know how to farm. How disgusting!"
After leaving the Laoshan Imperial Manor, Zhu Yuanzhang stood on the official road with his hands on his hips, looking at the ice-covered Imperial Manor in the distance, shouting with indignation.
Zhu Yunxi stood by and whispered: "Old people are all stubborn..."
Zhu Yuanzhang turned around and said with a dissatisfied look: "Do you think we are also stubborn?"
"..." Zhu Yunxi suddenly became speechless and said with a wry smile: "My grandson didn't say anything about you."
Zhu Yuanzhang was very unhappy and muttered: "Before leaving, the old man made a bet with me, saying that the harvest of Huangzhuang next year would be better. I refused to accept it and made a bet with him."
Zhu Yunxi was immediately stunned.
Why didn't I see it just now?
He quickly asked: "What did you bet with him about?"
After asking, Zhu Yunxi quietly glanced at the several earthen kilns outside the imperial village that were covered with snow.
Sun Cheng on the side also looked embarrassed.
The emperor didn't know about this.
Zhu Yuanzhang said with confidence: "We will make a bet with that old man. If he wins, we will be exempted from the land tax of Laoshan Palace for five years. If we win, he will go to Laoshan Palace for us every ten days in the next year."
The white strips were fished out of the river and sent to the palace for steaming."
After finishing speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang raised his head, as if he was already wondering whether all the white bars in the river would be fished out.
Zhu Yunxi smiled helplessly, shrank his head and whispered cautiously: "You are definitely defeated..."
"Huh?" Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, showing suspicion.
Zhu Yunxi laughed dryly, helped the old man and walked to the carriage parked next to the official road: "You can just let your grandson do it for a while. When the next summer harvest comes, Laoshan Palace will definitely have an even bigger harvest."<
/p>
Snap!
Zhu Yuanzhang slapped his palm on the carriage. Hearing that there would be a bigger harvest next year, he didn't bother to hide in the carriage and return to the city.
He frowned and stared at Zhu Yunxi: "You kid, please tell me, is there something going on behind the scenes? Have we taken advantage of your kid?"
Zhu Yunxi smiled, and as if coaxing a child, he carried the old man to the carriage and put him on the carriage. He then tucked the young twenty-third uncle Zhu Huan under his arm and threw him into the carriage.
He said softly: "You should be prepared to issue an edict to exempt Laoshan Huangzhuang from the land tax for five years."
After coaxing the old man and the young man into the carriage, Zhu Yunxi gave the order to return to the city.
……
"What on earth did you do at Laoshan Palace?"
On the 22nd day of the twelfth lunar month in the 24th year of Hongwu, the day before the Lunar New Year, in the Zhongji Hall, Zhu Yuanzhang leaned against the fire with his hands, frowning and looking at Zhu Yunxi who was reviewing the memorial.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Two girls, Tang Queqing and Mu Caiyun, have also been waiting here these days.
Prince Zhu Biao was out of the sun, so he could only wrap his legs in a sheepskin blanket and read a book in his hand.
After Zhu Yunxi finished approving a memorial, he was so persistent about the old man for several days. He could only say with a smile: "I don't know how effective it will be yet. Your boss will have to wait for his grandson to verify the effect and then come and receive the reward. If it doesn't work, grandson will
It won’t cause any loss of face…”
"You don't even have all your hair, how can you get any face!" Zhu Yuanzhang scolded in annoyance, then raised his eyes and looked at the two girls standing aside.
I don’t know when the Zhongji Palace suddenly felt a little empty.
I always feel like something is missing.
He said quietly: "In a few days, my dear grandson will be one year older again."
Zhu Yunxi responded: "No matter how old you are, your grandchildren are your grandchildren and your father's children."
Children will always be children in front of their parents.
Even if you start a family and start a career, the reaction you should have when facing your parents when you are a teenager is indispensable.
I am talked about when I go out, and I am disliked when I come home.
Even if I play and laze for a while, I am afraid of being scolded.
Zhu Yuanzhang said more and more quietly: "How about we crown you next year."
Crowned.
Represents the youth becoming mature.
Although the Ming Dynasty had a clear and clear distinction between teenagers and adults.
But the crowning can be brought forward or postponed.
After performing the crowning ceremony, it means that the young person has become an adult in name and should assume the responsibilities and obligations of an adult.
For example, passing on the family line.
When Zhu Yunxi heard this, his heart trembled.
A few days ago, my father had privately warned him that young people should be wary of sex, and even revealed in a roundabout way that the old man seemed to have the idea of having a grandson.
Tang Queqing's face also turned red quietly, but Mu Caiyun on the side listened to these words blankly, with a confused expression.
Just when Zhu Yunxi didn't know how to answer.
There was a rush of footsteps outside the hall.
These are the footsteps of the Jinyiwei commander Jiang Wei.
As time passed, Zhu Yunxi could now distinguish the movements of several very distinctive people.
He couldn't help but follow the old man who also heard it and looked back outside the side hall.
As expected, it was Jiang Gu who was covered in snow and walked quickly to the door of the side hall.
He reached out and untied the belt on his chest, and handed the cloak to the eunuch waiting at the entrance of the palace.
"I, Commander of the Jinyi Guards, Jiang Gu, have something important to report."
Something happened.
Something important.
There are military matters.
In the court, different words often represent very different importance.
Zhu Yunxi's brows suddenly frowned.
Now that the New Year is almost here and the New Year is approaching, what else can happen to the court at this time?
He couldn't help but look at the silent old man, turned around and shouted outside: "Commander Jiang, come in."
"I accept my order."
Jiang Wei clasped his hands and walked quickly into the side hall.
Tang Queqing, who was waiting in the side hall, immediately pulled Mu Caiyun beside him, and the other palace eunuchs and eunuchs in the hall quietly passed by Jiang Yu and exited to wait outside the side hall.
Only then did Zhu Yuanzhang speak calmly: "What happened?"
Jiang Wei swallowed his saliva and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, there is heavy snow in Zhejiang. The roads are blocked by snow, which destroys rural houses and blocks the transportation of food. Now the government is unable to provide disaster relief. There are thieves among the people who are colluding and want to commit disobedience."
Things. There are more Japanese invaders appearing in Ningbo Prefecture and other places. There are internal and external troubles. Zhejiang Road is now in complete chaos."
"They are so brave!"
Before the old man could speak, Zhu Yunxi immediately started scolding him, and besides anxiety, there was a murderous look on his brows.
Something big is going to happen in Zhejiang Road!
Snow disaster, civil unrest, Japanese invasion.
Putting these three things together, plus the inability of the government to provide relief, it is impossible for Zhejiang Province to have another good year this year.
Zhu Yuanzhang even directly said: "Japanese invaders? Our Ming Dynasty's real Japanese army has probably set foot in the Japanese country now. It is the twelfth month of winter. Where did the Japanese invaders come from?"
In an instant, the emperor's majesty dispersed.
Zhu Yuanzhang stood up with clenched teeth and clenched his hands into fists.
"Are they bullying my ignorance?"
