The two stone lions in front of the High Duke of Liang's mansion were very mighty.
The row of guards in front of the door glanced at the passers-by with sharp eyes. One look and they could tell that they were veterans who had been to the battlefield.
When Zhu Yu stopped, she immediately attracted the attention of these veterans.
After all, in their eyes, there were many people passing by the entrance of the Public House of Liang. Not to mention stopping to look, there were not many people who even had the courage to tilt their heads to look.
Moreover, he was not afraid of being stared at by so many people?
It was interesting, but it also had some courage.
"Brat, what's the matter?" Old Li, who was the leader, grinned. He wanted to make his tone as gentle as possible, but he was used to shouting on the battlefield. When he spoke, his voice buzzed and shook his ears.
In addition, he had two scars on his face. When he grinned, it was a little scary.
"General, my name is Zhu Yu. I am here today to pay a visit to the Duke of Liang.”Zhu Yu cupped his hands and smiled.
"Where is the invitation?"
"No, I haven't."
"No invitation? How can you meet our Duke of Liang just because you want to?”Old Li shook his head and waved his hand."Hurry up and leave, hurry up and leave."
If it wasn't for the fact that he had a good impression of this kid, he would have long pulled out his knife and chased him away if he didn't have an invitation.
"Zhu Yu?"
Suddenly, a low voice sounded.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice. The guards hurriedly bowed respectfully and said,"Great General."
"Greetings, Duke of Liang." When Zhu Yu saw who it was, she also cupped her hands towards him.
"We have indeed met before." Lan Yu glanced at Zhu Yu. This kid's fearless spirit was still fresh in her mind.
He admired the spirit of not retreating when faced with an enemy that was several times stronger than him, and the spirit of holding a long saber and only waiting for death.
He waved his hand and said,"Come on in."”
......
......
Sitting in the living room of the Duke of Liang's Public House, although Zhu Yu was dressed plainly, she did not appear humble or overbearing. This made Lan Yu secretly nod her head.
He wasn't afraid of this scene and was quite calm.
Lan Yu took a sip of tea and spoke first,"I heard that you didn't choose to be a farmer when we gave you the recommendation letter back then. Instead, you chose to be a businessman?”
"Why are you so willing to degenerate?"
"Replying to the Duke of Liang, for this kid, if he enters the agricultural register, he can only support himself. However, if he became a merchant, he could earn more money and help more people.”Facing a valiant general who was waiting for merit points, being questioned like this, he was probably scared to the point of peeing his pants.
Zhu Yu's expression was normal and calm.
"Oh? Are you so sure that you can earn more money after you enter the business register?”Lan Yu glanced at him.
Zhu Yu spread her hands and said,"That's indeed the case."”
When Lan Yu heard this, she could not help but be stunned.
This was indeed the case. After he returned from the war outside, he had also paid attention to Zhu Yu. He knew that this person had indeed earned a lot of money from this small business and had even helped to relieve the disaster victims.
His words had indeed come true.
"Hahaha, you have guts and confidence. As expected of the person I like.”
Lan Yu laughed and said seriously,"Zhu Yu, do you have any intention of joining our army, becoming a soldier, and working for our Great Ming Dynasty for generations?”
"Military household?"
Zhu Yu had some unusual movements. If it was in the past, he might really have agreed.
After all, the battlefield was one of the places he yearned for the most. The collision of cold weapons and the roar of hot weapons made his blood boil just thinking about it.
But now?
It had been 25 years since Hongwu's death? Crown Prince Zhu Biao has passed away, and Emperor Hongwu has already paid attention to you.
Something big might happen next. What if I join your army now? Joined the army in 1949?
Moreover, as the saying goes,'With parents at home, one won't travel far'.
Now that he had a father who recognized him as his relative, this matter was no longer within the scope of consideration. Therefore, after hesitating for a moment, he rejected the offer and said,"To tell you the truth, Great General, I have now acknowledged a father, a biological one.”
"You recognized a biological father?"
" I see." Blue Jade sighed, her face filled with pity.
He felt that if this kid followed him to the battlefield, he would teach him well in the future and he would probably be able to become a general.
"Our Great Ming Dynasty uses filial piety to rule the world. Your choice is correct.”
Lan Yu stood up and patted his shoulder.""If you ever run into any trouble in Jin Ling city, feel free to come find me.”
He could naturally tell that Lan Yu's words were very sincere.
This person was very loyal, as could be seen from the distribution of the spoils of war to his subordinates.
Looking at his bright smile, Zhu Yu remembered that he would be executed by Zhu Yuanzhang in the future. His brothers in the army would also be implicated and their heads would fall to the ground. He could not help but feel a little sad.
These martial artists were very innocent. They were arrogant because they had the capital to fight.
However, just because Zhu Yunwen wanted to take the throne, they had to be killed. It was really unfair.
After this group of martial artists who had contributed to the Ming Dynasty were all purged by Emperor Hongwu,
When Zhu Yunwen ascended the throne, he faced the 'Jingnan Battle' of the King of Yan, Zhu Di, but it created a situation where there were no generals available under his command.
It was also because of the purge of the generals that the civil servants gradually took control of the court, causing the status of the generals to gradually decline.
In the end, the meritorious generals who fought to the death with the enemy on the battlefield had to beg these civil officials to arrange for the compensation and official positions for their brothers who died in battle.
How sad!
How aggrieved!
How sad!
This was the trend of history. Zhu Yu did not know if he could change the original trajectory, but he felt that it should be no problem for him to interfere.
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated and went straight to the point.
"State Duke of Liang, I came here today to advise you.”
"Persuade me?"
Lan Yu was stunned.
