"Yes."
Zhu Xiong dismounted from the horse and handed the horse to the guard beside him. He then nodded to Xu Da and said,"Uncle Xu, do you want to ride a horse on the grassland?”
"Be careful that the walls have ears. Let's talk as we walk.”
Xu Da waved his hand lightly, then pulled Zhu Rong's hand and said,""As a general, I have spent half my life in the military. Naturally, I want to be able to ride on the grasslands, seal wolves, and drink horses in the vast sea. Unfortunately, I am in a high position and have no titles. In order to protect me, your father transferred me from the battlefield twice and even let me take up a post in the Ministry of Central Affairs.”
Xu Da's expression was a little lonely!
On the battlefield.
I've spent half my life on the battlefield.
The highest honor of a general was to seal the wolf and drink the horse!
To him, Xu Da, it was just a step away!
But it was just this one step away!
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't step out!
"Uncle Xu."
"But the current situation has forced you to take control of the army again!”
"One of you and Marshal Tang must go to the Northern Desert Grassland!”
"Otherwise."
"Our Darming Dynasty's face will really be swept away.”
"This is also a helpless move. Moreover, our Huaixi dignitaries also want you to lead the army. After all, you and Wang Baobao are old rivals, and Wang Baobao has always been defeated by you. Only when you go to the Mobei grasslands will there be a possibility of turning the tide!”
Zhu Rong still looked at Xu Da and smiled.""Moreover, my father also has the intention to let you send troops to the Northern Desert Grassland. I can see this, and only by razing the Northern Desert Grassland can my Darming Dynasty truly settle down.”
"Then when the time comes, let your father give me the title of king?”
"Conferred King?"
Xu Da glanced at Zhu Rong and said,""Your Uncle Xu still wants to live a few more years!”
"Uncle Xu, why are you so pessimistic?"
"How did he become a king?"
"Didn't my father protect you twice for this friendship?”
"I believe my father will come up with an idea.”
A meaningful smile flashed across Zhu Rong's eyes. He then cupped his hands towards Xu Da and said,""Uncle Xu, we're almost at your residence. I won't be accompanying you. My parents and big brother are waiting for me.”
"Your Highness, slow down."
Xu Da looked at Zhu Rong's receding figure and couldn't help but gently nod his head. As expected of Zhu Yuanzhang's son. This hidden personality was really the same. It seemed that he had no choice but to go to the Northern Desert Grassland this time.
I wonder what Zhu Yuanzhang will think of?
The queen's inner palace.
"Didn't you have dinner?"
Empress Ma, who was sitting on the couch, looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, who was eating in front of her, and said with a smile,"Eat slowly. No one is snatching it from you."
"I like the porridge you make."
The meal in front of Zhu Yuanzhang was very simple. Two plates of salted vegetables, a plate of flatbread, and a big bowl of porridge. He ate it with relish.
However, this was true.
If only I could have eaten flatbread back then?
Zhu Yuanzhang was definitely not the current Zhu Yuanzhang!
"I'm full."
Zhu Yuanzhang put down his chopsticks and looked at Empress Ma helplessly."I was wrong. I thought that Bao 'er had already trained for so many years, but who knew?”
"But thinking about it, it's not wrong. There's only one word in Bao 'er's name.”
However, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Empress Ma half-jokingly and raised two fingers."How can one person win against two?"
"Just for this?"
Empress Ma was also amused by Zhu Yuanzhang's tone.
"Ever since I became the King of Wu, Mister Li, Master Liu, and that Hu Weiyong have repeatedly told me that we cannot let a general hold military power for too long.”
"That's why I asked Tiande to quit his job.”
"Transferred to the Ministry of Central Affairs."
"Actually, it's to protect him.”
Zhu Yuanzhang, who had walked down from the imperial court and was standing in front of Empress Ma, was the same Zhu Zhongba from back then. He did not have the domineering and decisive attitude he had in the imperial court. Instead, he said helplessly and regretfully,""If this time, Tiande still has to lead the army, then he can only be conferred the title of King after he wins and returns to the court.”
"Conferred emperor?"
Empress Ma's hand paused for a moment, then she looked up at Zhu Yuanzhang in surprise.
"He's still a king with a different surname!"
"What should we do?"
"Let's not talk about Mr. Li first. Teacher Liu, can you pass that test?”
"Even if it's in the past."
"This isn't a good thing for Tiande, but what if he doesn't become a king?”
"I really don't know what to reward him with.”
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded his head lightly. It was not uncommon for people to cheat each other in the imperial court. He had indeed lost his sense of propriety towards this brother of his since he was young. What should he do?
"Since there's no other good way.”
"Not as good."
Empress Ma finally put down what she was doing and slowly came to Zhu Yuanzhang's side with a smile.""Let's get married!"
"Marriage?"
"Good idea!"
"Tomorrow, I will go to the Wenhua Palace to see those bastards.”
"I heard that Tiande's daughter is one of the best daughters in the Yingtian Prefecture!”
"Isn't this a happy ending?”
Zhu Yuanzhang's face was slightly surprised, and then a hint of joy flashed across his eyes. As expected of a virtuous wife who had overcome life and death difficulties with him. This was a great reward!
Although he couldn't compare to an emperor!
But it was enough to shut the mouths of the world!
This was enough!
"Chongba."
"Are you stupid?"
"You still haven't found your second son?”
"Don't forget that among our sons, although the fifth son can already get married, with that kid's personality, it's better to wait a little longer!”
"Besides, Third and Fourth are already married!”
"Only our second son doesn't have a place!"
Empress Ma rolled her eyes at Zhu Yuanzhang and said,""Why don't you think about Second Brother? If the daughter of the Tiande family marries Second Brother, wouldn't it be more stable for the imperial power and lay a thick foundation for Biao 'er to ascend the throne in the future?”
"Yes."
"Pin 'er is good at fighting and is Biao' er's right-hand man!”
"In addition, Biao 'er has already married the daughter of the Boren family. If Pin' er can marry the daughter of the Tiande family, then it will naturally be a closer relationship, once and for all!”
Zhu Yuanzhang clapped his hands and looked at Empress Ma in admiration. Then, he smiled and said,""But I haven't seen those brats for a long time. I miss them too. Tomorrow, I'll take my eldest and second brother to see them and see what they have learned from the Headmaster!”
"We suffered because we didn't study when we were young!”
“……”
The endless chatter could only be heard in this palace. The eunuchs and servant girls had envious looks in their eyes. From ancient times until now, the only emperor who doted on the Empress was probably Emperor Hongwu!
