Chapter 537: Are we getting old?

Are there really people in this world who are born with knowledge?

Zhu Yuanzhang now has a very clear understanding of Da Sun's experience.

During this process, he keenly discovered that there was no guide for Yu Dasun on his way forward.

There is no such thing as a master.

Apart from wandering around in the Western Region at first, it didn't take long for him to quickly seize his own opportunities and then rise rapidly.

When Zhu Yuanzhang went to study business, he carefully studied the business model of Qunying Chamber of Commerce.

Reading books naturally means reading all books.

However, the framework of the Qunying Chamber of Commerce was built by Da Sun himself from the inside out.

This framework, even at the beginning, was too mature and seemed to be completely ready.

Zhu Yuanzhang thought he was smart enough and well-read.

The formation of a system is difficult because you don't know what the people living under this system will be like.

Is it a good influence or a bad influence?

Zhu Yuanzhang created so many systems, and almost the entire Ming Dynasty framework was gradually established by him step by step.

So it is very clear how difficult it is to reach the mature conditions.

Well, even if the eldest grandson is extremely talented in business, he didn't miss a step. He was completely safe and had great luck.

So what about the military and government affairs?

The method of conducting troops completely surpassed that of previous dynasties and was a method that had never been seen before.

With many achievements in government affairs, it seems that the future development has been completely foreseen.

Even the most difficult problem of vassal kingship in the past dynasties was easily solved in the hands of Da Sun.

The development of the matchlock gun is now the most powerful weapon of the Ming Dynasty.

Concrete roads, allotment of land, separation of military formations, salary reform, promotion of maritime trade, conquest of Japanese countries, diplomacy with other countries...

Counting them down one by one, there are simply too many.

Suddenly, the entire Ming Dynasty seemed to have completely changed.

Twenty-five years of Ming Dynasty cannot compare with the development of two years.

Zhu Yuanzhang felt that he seemed to be unable to keep up with Da Sun's pace recently.

"Are we getting old?"

Zhu Yuanzhang felt very sad.

Nothing happened either way.

After the morning court session the next day, Zhu Yuanzhang summoned Tang He into the palace.

Tang and his body are feeling much better now.

In the 23rd year of Hongwu's reign, he suddenly suffered a stroke, which meant that Tang He no longer posed any threat to the Ming Dynasty.

But as far as the current eldest grandson is concerned, Tang has nothing to do with this place.

After all, Feng Sheng and Lan Yu survived, let alone Tang He.

Seeing his old friends, Zhu Yuanzhang was in a good mood, so he told Liu He: "Get some side dishes and heat up a pot of wine. Today we will have a good time catching up with our old brothers."

When Tang He heard this, his face showed a bit of embarrassment.

His stroke was a hepatic stroke, and the cause was actually simple: excessive drinking.

I used to drink it day and night just because I was in good health, but now I am suffering from all the diseases of old age.

The imperial doctor has given you countless instructions, remember not to drink alcohol anymore.

What was once a fine wine has become a life-threatening poison for Tang He today.

Tang He glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang from the corner of his eye, and saw that Zhu Yuanzhang was radiant and energetic, with no trace of gloom in his eyes.

Then I knew clearly in my heart that Your Majesty summoned me here today not to kill myself, but really just to reminisce about old times.

Obviously, His Majesty is not aware of the fact that he cannot drink.

This is a problem.

If I say it bluntly, it is likely to make His Majesty unhappy and spoil the atmosphere, which may cause big problems later.

Since Hu Weiyong's death, Tang He has had a very thorough understanding of His Majesty, whom he has grown up with since childhood. At this age, it is normal for him to pave the way for future generations.

In fact, Tang He was relatively understanding.

After I made a mistake, I fully understood that His Majesty is already His Majesty, and is no longer the superior or heavy eight he used to be.

The difference between monarch and minister is like a chasm. If anyone wants to take advantage of his past achievements to surpass others, it is basically impossible to get any good results.

Tang He now just thinks that he can live in peace until his death. In some ways, he can pave the way for his children and grandchildren.

Tang He had five sons and five daughters.

Let’s not mention daughters for now. Daughters who believe in the Duke of the country will naturally marry well-matched husbands.

With Tang He's status, no son-in-law would dare to displease his father-in-law.

The eldest son Tang Ding was once the pride of Tang He. He followed Tang He to conquer the world with his army very early.

From the official position to the former military commander, he was in charge of Qian affairs and was promoted to the second rank.

It was a pity that in the 14th year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang sent Fu Youde on an expedition to Yunnan, and Tang Ding also accompanied him, but he died in Yunnan.

The third son, Tang Nai, and the fourth son, Tang Xie, both died young.

Wu Zi Tang Li, the commander-in-chief of the Zuo Army, was a member of the first rank. Unfortunately, he died in battle during the expedition against Wu Kaiwei.

The only one left was the second son Tang Fu, who was alone.

Originally, Tang Fu was appointed as the Central Guard and Governor of Taiyuan.

Zhu Yuanzhang felt pity that Tang He had no son to take care of him, and he was seriously ill, so he asked someone to transfer Tang Fu back to the capital, which was better than taking care of Tang He.

Tang He has nothing else to do and is recuperating every day.

As long as he lives in this world, no one can challenge the status of his second son and eldest grandson.

The Duke of Xinguo is the most elite nobleman in the Ming Dynasty.

It was also because of concern and previous lessons that Tang He was so cautious, thinking about what to say to tactfully express that he could not drink.

Just when Tang He was in trouble, Liu He said in an even more difficult position: "Your Majesty, Taisun has specifically told you that Your Majesty is not allowed to drink alcohol."

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he paused slightly.

Then he glanced at Tang He and said angrily: "Do we need our eldest grandson to know that we are drinking? This is going against the grain."

"Go and get us a hot pot of wine. Today we are going to have a drink with my old brother."

When Liu He heard this, he didn't dare to say anything at the moment. With a bit of struggle on his face, he lowered his head and said: "I obey the order."

Seeing that Liu He was about to leave, Zhu Yuanzhang added: "Brother Tang He and I will only drink a small pot. If we don't drink more, you can't tell our eldest grandson."

"If our eldest grandson finds out, I will give you a lesson."

After hearing this, Liu He immediately knelt down on the ground and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, the wine in Guanglu Temple was guarded by His Highness Taisun. This old servant went to get the wine. Taisun

Your Highness will definitely know."

"This is right behind, I really can't hide it from you."

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he remembered that among the cooks at Guanglu Temple, the leaders basically followed the eldest grandson.

If anything happens, I will definitely tell Dasun.

At the moment, he felt a little unhappy and said: "It's true, we just want to drink some wine, but this won't work."

"Hurry up and get us the wine. Dasun is playing with Xiao Yuting at the moment. Be careful not to let us know."

"Be quick with your actions. By the time grandson finds out, the wine will be on the table and he won't be able to care about us anymore."

Zhu Yuanzhang hadn't drank for a long time, so he wanted to take a few sips to satisfy his craving today.

It was so difficult to make such a decision, but it aroused the alcohol bug in his belly.

The soup and my heart were numb.

All these twists and turns made him not even know how to speak.

As soon as my mind changed, I made up my mind to pretend to be sick later when the wine was about to be delivered.

Anyway, there are problems all over the body, so I am not afraid that the imperial doctor will find out any clues.

After thinking about it, Tang He relaxed.

Zhu Yuanzhang must have felt that he had lost a lot of face. After Liu He left, he changed the subject and said, "We heard a few days ago that your eldest grandson contracted the cold and is not in good health."

What Zhu Yuanzhang was talking about was Tang He's eldest grandson, the son of his late eldest son Tang Ding.

According to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, the title can only be inherited by the direct lineage.

Hereditary is hereditary, but if the direct line dies, it depends on the emperor's will whether he can be canonized separately.

When Tang He heard Zhu Yuanzhang talking about his eldest grandson, his eyes were filled with distress.

I don’t know what happened to him, but the eldest grandson’s body has been very weak since he was a child. It’s not just because of the medicine, but his bones are really weak.

Even though the imperial doctor has been here a lot, he has not been able to get a complete cure. It is a matter of long-term warming and maintenance.

"I don't dare bother Your Majesty. My grandson is not healthy after being ejaculated. The sunshine was good a few days ago, but he caught the wind and cold just after taking a bath."

"When I just went out, I was still drinking medicine there."

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he suddenly thought of his great grandson.

The filial eldest grandson built a large steam room in the palace. Xiao Yuting, his daughter-in-law, and himself were all very comfortable, and there was no danger of wind and cold entering the body.

In comparison, the soup here feels particularly pitiful.

Immediately he said: "You know that our eldest grandson has a lot of thoughts. Our little great-grandson was born in this winter and is most afraid of the wind and cold."

"Our eldest grandson thought of a way and built a steam room. It's steaming hot, just like in summer."

"After we, old brothers, have finished reminiscing about old times, we will ask the eldest grandson to send people to your Duke Xinguo's mansion to build a steam room. I guarantee that we won't have to worry about bathing in the future."

Tang He had also heard about the steam room.

I just don't understand its structure.

But it can prevent the eldest grandson from catching wind and cold when bathing, which is a good thing. He immediately stood up and bowed: "I would like to thank your majesty."

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and said indifferently: "We are all old brothers, we don't care about this."

"But let me just say a few words. You, the eldest grandson, have a very young body, so you have already reached your age, so you decided to get married and leave a heir as soon as possible."

"Don't blame me for speaking poorly. Reasons are so reasonable."

Tang He nodded and said, "To be honest with you, Your Majesty, I have already made love to someone else. My grandson, an old man with a strong body, also understands in his heart that he has to prepare early, and the marriage will be consummated in a few years."

[A novel app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old book-chasing tool, and a source-changing app used by old bookworms,]

Tang and his eldest grandson named Tang Cheng.

Now he is almost ten years old.

Even if you want to go faster, you still have to wait four or five years, until you are fourteen or fifteen years old.

Tang He had many sons who died young, so he wanted to spread the branches as soon as possible so that the family could prosper first.

But the more you fear something, the more it will come.

With Tang He's prestige, there is no need to worry about the lineage of Xin Guogong, and he will be rich and noble for generations to come.

However, in fact, whether it is the current eldest grandson Tang Cheng or Tang Wenyu, the son of Tang Cheng later, they all died young without exception, that is, they left a legacy behind.

They haven't even reached the crown, and they haven't even reached the age of Xijue.

But when Tang Wenyu's son Tang Jie, Tang He's great-great-grandson, asked the court to inherit Tang He's title, a very strange thing happened.

When Tang Jie made the request, Ming Yingzong was already in power.

At that time, after Tang Jie made a request to Ming Yingzong to inherit the title, Ming Yingzong actually dismissed the Duke of Xin Kingdom left by Tang He because there had been no successor to the Tang family title for forty years!

However, what was even more unfortunate was that Tang Jie was unable to give birth to a son in his life.

Fortunately, although his father Tang Wenyu died young, he also gave birth to two sons, so Tang Jie could only adopt a son from his younger brother, named Tang Shaozong.

Originally, people of Tang Shaozong's generation no longer expected any titles from the court.

It happened to be that Zhu Youtang, Emperor Xiaozong of the Ming Dynasty, came to the throne.

After the Tumubao Incident, the Ming Dynasty was already riddled with holes, and the court was also in a mess.

Emperor Xiaozong of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youtangbian, thought of these descendants who had been loyal ministers for the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and naturally he couldn't do without Tang Shaozong.

Tang Shaozong was directly given the position of hereditary commander of the Nanjing Jinyi Guards.

During the Jiajing period, the Tang family was in great prosperity and received another hereditary title of Lingbi Marquis.

Five generations later, the Ming Dynasty was overthrown and this was the end.

It’s also pretty good.

Compared with his sons, Tang He's daughters are pretty good.

Even if Zhu Yuanzhang killed the heroes, these sons-in-law could be avoided by relying on Tang He.

After talking about Tang He's grandson, Zhu Yuanzhang brought the topic back to the time of the Feng Yun Ji Meeting.

Tang He knew how to flatter, so naturally he had a great time chatting with Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang was laughing constantly.

Not long after, Tang He saw the eunuchs squatting with dishes behind His Majesty, and among them, Taisun also came over.

No more words at the moment.

Seeing Tang He's expression, Zhu Yuanzhang subconsciously looked back and met Zhu Ying's eyes.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang was as if a cat had been caught stealing food, and he was actually a little embarrassed.

"Dasun, why are you here?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked pretending not to know.

Zhu Ying said with a smile: "Xiao Yuting fell asleep and was about to go to the Gunpowder Department to have a look. She happened to meet someone who was delivering food to grandpa, so she came over to have a look."

"I heard grandpa's hearty laughter all the way away. It turned out that Duke Xin was here."

Zhu Yuanzhang heard that his eldest grandson didn't talk about drinking, so he said casually: "We are thinking about our old brother, so we just wanted to ask how he is doing lately."

"Dasun, you're here just in time. We'll find a few people tomorrow to build a steam room for Duke Xin's mansion. We can't be the only ones to enjoy the good things."

Zhu Ying replied: "Grandpa, don't worry, my grandson will have someone come and build it tomorrow."

"Just in time, Hangzhou has just sent this year's new West Lake Longjing tea. Grandpa, why don't you try it? Let's make tea by the stove."

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know that this was the step given by his grandson.

Then he smiled and said, "Okay, then let's make tea around the stove."

When Tang He heard this, his eyes lit up.
