"Okay, since you said so, I will stop looking forward and backward." Liu Bowen was waiting for his words, fearing that he would regret it, so he stood up with the help of the little eunuch and said: "The wind here is quite cool.
Yes, I couldn’t bear it after being blown for a long time, so I went in.”
"Go in and drink hot tea, or take a hot bath if you can't." Lao Liu said with a smile, "It's great to rub the ashes in front of the river view."
"My body is clean!" Old Liu said angrily.
"Then who knows." Zhu Zhen smiled and ordered the young eunuch: "Give my master a good rub."
Liu Li was so amused that she covered her mouth and snickered. After her grandfather left, she rolled her eyes at him and said, "Why are you teasing me so much?"
"Who made him scold me for stepping on my feet just now? What's that..." Lao Liu chuckled and stopped mid-sentence. She couldn't share the same hatred with her on this matter.
"Haha..." Liu Li smiled sweetly and said, "By the way, I received a letter from Run'er yesterday. She will be returning to Beijing soon."
"Really?" Zhu Zhen said with a look of surprise: "Then the relationship is good, you will have a partner again."
"Don't you even know, Junior Uncle?" Liu Li looked at Lao Liu with a playful look, and said narrowly, "I thought you guys had always been in contact."
"How can there be..." Zhu Zhen felt guilty for a while, and then said shamelessly: "It really is. Am I not fat again? I asked her to help me formulate a weight loss plan."
"Isn't Fairy Zhang, the master of Taoism, also in the capital that day? Why would my junior uncle abandon the near and seek the far away?" Liu Li put his hands on his shoulders and asked innocently:
"She seems to have been looking for you. Does Junior Uncle owe her money? Why are you always avoiding her?"
"Oh, she wants to beg me to intercede with the emperor and put her eldest brother back." Zhu Zhen said helplessly: "But even the queen mother is unwilling to help, how can I dare to mess with it? She scratched her buttocks.
That is, why do you have to eat vitex?"
Because Zhengyiyi has aroused Boss Zhu's vigilance, he plans to keep Zhang Dazhen for a long time to create valuable development opportunities for Quanzhen and Wudang and share the terrifying influence of Zhengyiyi.
This falls under the category of national policy. Empress Ma will never give any advice in this regard, and naturally there is no place for Lao Liu to speak.
Zhang Xunzhen's unexpected perseverance made Lao Liutou as big as a bucket, so he had to avoid seeing him.
"That's it." Liu Li suddenly said, then he puffed up his not-so-rich chest, stretched his waist, and asked with a smile: "One last question."
"Are you coming?" Lao Liu's face wrinkled into a bitter melon.
"What do you want to eat for lunch, little uncle?" Liu Li asked with a sly smile.
"Haha..." Lao Liu jumped up and rushed towards Liu Lida: "How dare you tease me."
"You can't catch me." Liu Li nimbly dodged and ran away like a deer. His clear laughter echoed in the bamboo forest.
"Where to escape!" Lao Liuxiong chased after him like a blind man.
The summer life of His Highness Neptune is so ordinary...
~~
Qingliang Mountain is a unique place for coolness, but Nanjing city is still hot and hot, and the low-lying Forbidden City is the hardest hit area.
This made Boss Zhu start to complain again, why did he choose this poor place to be the capital of the country?
In fact, the real reason is that he has also gained weight...
As he grew older, his face became rounder and his belly became more and more bulging. Otherwise, how could anyone say that Lao Liu looked more and more like him.
"Boss, where do you think the capital of the country should be moved?" Under Zhu Yuanzhang's dragon robe, he only wore yellow dragon underwear, which was enough to touch a handful of water. "Anyway, it's hot in the winter and stuffy in the summer, so we're here to stay.
That's enough."
Because father and son wanted to discuss state affairs, as a rule, eunuchs and maids were not allowed in. Zhu Yuanzhang was reluctant to use ice cubes to cool down.
The prince had no choice but to fan his father and son himself. He was so hot that he was sweating on his forehead and said, "Father, now is not the time to consider moving the capital. We have to wait until Yunnan is recovered and Jin Ou is unified. It will not be too late to discuss this matter again."
"Oh, that's right." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded depressedly, wiped the water drops on his glasses with cotton cloth, and suddenly thought: "But it's not a problem to be wet all day long. Isn't Lao Liu quite capable? Let him
Think of a way to give us a way to cool down and relieve the heat."
"Dad, Lao Liu doesn't have three heads and six arms. The matters of Guozi's studies are enough to give him a headache. You still have to worry about him." The boss said feeling sorry for Lao Liu.
"He has a headache. How happy he is with Liu Bowen's granddaughter in Qingliang Mountain." Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily.
"You can go too." The boss said speechlessly, "I will ask the sixth to make room for you now."
"We still have to go to court." Zhu Yuanzhang said depressedly: "I don't think any kid would enjoy it."
"That's your father's dedication." The prince complimented.
"There is nothing we can do, we are just working hard." Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, ended the chat, and said in a deep voice: "I just mentioned Yunnan and the ultimatum given to Prince Liang. Is there any reply there?"
The prince shook his head.
"Well, it seems that there is no chance of regaining Yunnan without any bloodshed." Zhu Yuanzhang depressed the jade belt around his waist.
"Yes." Zhu Biao nodded in agreement: "For more than ten years, my father has always been gentle towards Prince Liang. I hope he can understand the situation clearly, turn from darkness to light, and save our Ming Dynasty from a war."
As he spoke, he sighed and said: "But this guy has been inconsistent from the beginning. He keeps breaking his promises and even kills my envoys twice. As time goes by, he even thinks that the Ming Dynasty is afraid of the hundreds of thousands of mountains in Yunnan and dare not enter and suppress them. I see
He makes us ignore him more and more."
"He just wants to die!" Zhu Yuanzhang said with anger on his face: "We don't attack Yunnan, but we care about the soldiers. We don't want them to face miasma poisonous insects. After the founding of the country, they died in vain. So I have always wanted to persuade them to surrender..."
In fact, he not only wanted to persuade King Liang of Yunnan to surrender, but he was also obsessed with persuading Wang Baobao to surrender. But he failed.
"Actually, we still hope that if one day Tiande can destroy Yuan Ting and capture Emperor Beiyuan alive, Yunnan will have to spread the word." Zhu Yuanzhang said depressedly: "I didn't expect that it has been twelve years since Hongwu and it has not been successful yet.
"
"How can there be a fixed royal court in Beiyuan now?" The prince said with a bitter smile: "They are all wandering around. As soon as they heard about the northern expedition of the army, they immediately fled to Mobei. No matter how powerful the general was, there was nothing he could do against them. He could only continue to weaken them.
They are waiting for the right time."
"Who knows when the weather will come?" Zhu Yuanzhang wiped his face and made up his mind: "No wait, we have to decide on Yunnan first."
"Yes, my father has done his best to be benevolent and righteous." The prince also agreed: "Now that the army is well-known, the three armies will surely use their lives."
"Well, those old brothers have always been very dissatisfied with our delay in attacking Yunnan." Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said: "After knowing this news, they will definitely be vying to lead troops to fight."
The prince's smile gradually solidified. Now the nobles will feel like a fish in water again...
After gathering his composure, he asked softly: "Should the preparation of military resources still be left to the Zhongshu Ministry of Education?"
"Well..." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded subconsciously, but then shook his head and said: "Don't tell anyone about it yet, and don't tell me either, let us think about it before we talk."
