In the Eastern Palace.
When the Crown Princess, Lady Lu, saw Huang Zicheng return, she hurriedly went up to him.
"Master Huang, what did father say?”
When Corey saw this woman, he was furious.
If it wasn't for this stupid woman, he wouldn't have been scolded!
However, when he thought of the other party's identity, he could only endure it.
"Reporting to the Crown Princess Consort!"
"His Majesty is furious!"
"Not only did he not agree to repair the Eastern Palace, he even scolded the general and even blamed His Highness Yun Wen!”
When Madam Lu heard this, she immediately panicked.
Her knees gave way and she immediately knelt down in front of Corey.
Huang Zicheng didn't dare to accept such a big bow. He wanted to reach out to help her, but he was worried that it wouldn't be close, so he could only avoid it from afar.
"Crown Princess, this lowly official cannot accept such a big bow from you!”
Lady Lu smiled bitterly.
"The Crown Prince has already been dead for more than half a year. What kind of Crown Princess am I?”
"Master Huang, you have to help us orphans and widows, sob…"
"Crown Princess Consort, please rise!"
"We share weal and woe with the Crown Prince Residence, and we will definitely not sit idly by.”
" However, His Majesty's attitude is ambiguous now. We need to plan slowly…"
"How?"
Madam Lu stood up and looked at Huang Zicheng hopefully.
"Two days ago, His Majesty dismissed the six officers of the Eastern Palace, leaving only a few hundred guards for us.”
"He even asked Yun Wen to learn how to train soldiers and train soldiers. This is clearly to let Yun Wen, this child, become a vassal!”
The idea of repairing the Eastern Palace was not proposed by Zhu Yunwen, but by the Crown Princess Consort, Madam Lu, who instructed Huang Zicheng to do so.
She was a smart person and would never do such a thing for personal enjoyment.
The reason why she did this was to test Old Master Zhu's attitude.
If Zhu Yuanzhang cared about his grandson and sent people to repair the Crown Prince's Mansion, it could send a signal that the Emperor favored his grandson, Zhu Yunwen, and intended to confer him the title of Grand Imperial Grandson.
Even if Zhu Yuanzhang did not agree, he would suppress this matter and not cause too much of an impact.
However, who would have thought that the old man would go crazy? Not only did he not agree, but he even scolded him.
If outsiders knew about this, they would run as far away as they could and never dare to enter the Eastern Palace again.
"Crown Princess is worrying too much. Perhaps His Majesty just wants His Highness Yun Wen to learn military skills to pave the way for the future title of Grand Sun.”
"Therefore, we will go all out to support His Highness Yun Wen and let him show off in the military exercise at the end of the month!”
"At that time, His Majesty can naturally confer the title of Grand Sun!”
When the Crown Princess heard this, her face was filled with disbelief.
"Is that true?"
Huang Zicheng said anxiously.
"Crown Princess!"
"Whether it's like this or not, we can only plan this!”
"Otherwise, do you really want to follow His Highness Yun Wen to become a vassal?”
"Uh…"
When the Crown Princess heard this, she bowed to Huang Zicheng.
"Thank you, Master Huang!"
Huang Zicheng didn't dodge this time and accepted the crown princess 'bow.
He was now tied to the East Palace. If Zhu Yunwen could become the emperor in the future, he would naturally benefit the most.
However, if he failed, he could forget about being an official for the rest of his life.
No matter which prince the Emperor passed the throne to, it had nothing to do with Huang Zicheng.
"Don't worry, Crown Princess!"
"I will do my best to support His Highness Yun Wen in seizing the position of the Grand Sun!”
……
After Zhu Yuanzhang drove Huang Zicheng away, he ordered the Minister of War and the Commander-in-Chief of the Five Armies to ask if there was a problem with the military household system.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang's prestige was too great, and the officials below did not dare to tell the truth.
Of course, there were still some people who didn't know and couldn't say anything even if they wanted to.
This made Zhu Yuanzhang very anxious.
The problem of military households involved the foundation of the Great Ming Dynasty. If no one was willing to be a soldier in the future, then the Great Ming Dynasty would face the predicament of having no soldiers to send.
Zhu Yuanzhang saw that his ministers were unreliable and locked himself in the palace to ponder.
However, after pondering for an entire night, he still could not figure out why.
Therefore, he had two dark circles under his eyes the next day and attended the morning court session.
The morning court session had just ended, and Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't take it anymore. He directly ordered Erhu to prepare the carriage.
Xiao Hu followed his instructions and quickly prepared the carriage.
"Emperor, where are we going today?”
Zhu Yuanzhang glared at him arrogantly and scolded.
"Where else can I go?"
"Go to Black Tortoise Manor and find that bastard!"
Hearing this, Xiao Hu did not dare to say anything more and drove the carriage out of the palace.
The two of them rushed to Black Tortoise Manor and stopped at Qin Mu's courtyard.
However, the two of them knocked on the door for a long time, but there was no response.
"Emperor, there doesn't seem to be anyone inside?"
Zhu Yuanzhang's face was gloomy and unhappy.
"Our eldest grandson is hurt and doesn't want to see us!”
Erhu added carefully.
"There should be no one, right?"
Right at this moment, a child passed by. Er Hu hurriedly called out to him and asked him where Qin Mu had gone.
"Are you looking for our commander?”
"Yes, I am!"
"We're friends of your commander. We're here to look for you. Can you tell me where he went?”
The child pointed to the east.
"Follow this road until you reach the end. You will reach our village's martial arts practice field. Our commander is training there!”
"Oh, thank you!"
Erhu sent the child away and hurried back to Zhu Yuanzhang to report.
"Emperor, this humble servant has heard that Young Master Qin is training his troops in the east!”
Zhu Yuanzhang rolled his eyes in disdain.
"Humph!"
"I heard it long ago.”
"There's no need to drive. We can just walk.”
The two of them rushed to the martial arts practice field and saw that it was silent.
More than three hundred men in brand new military uniforms stood upright under the scorching sun like javelins.
At the front of this group of people was a thin and weak youth. He was wearing a helmet and armor, standing straight like the others.
Even though the armor was soaked in sweat, it did not move at all.
Zhu Yuanzhang had never seen such a training method before, so he felt that it was very novel.
"Erhu, my eyesight is not good. Can you help me take a look? Is that our eldest grandson standing at the front?”
"Reporting to the Emperor, that is Young Master Qin!”
Zhu Yuanzhang was deeply moved by his words, and his nose started to sting again.
"He's really our good grandson!"
" Even if I'm extremely unwilling, I still train my soldiers meticulously. Sob, sob, sob…"
