Zhu Zheng said in admiration when he heard that,"
"Grandpa is a great man, a true hero!!”
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and patted Zhu Zheng's head, saying,"
"I'm not saying this to show off to you, but to tell you.
Never look down on the poor, and never underestimate the power of the poor!
They were the greatest reason in the world!!
We must take the people as the foundation and love the people as our children!
If you can do this, you will be invincible!!”
Zhu Zheng nodded and replied seriously,
"Grandpa, don't worry. Grandson will definitely remember it in his heart!!”
Zhu Zheng knew that Old Zhu was not just saying it, he really did it.
He issued a decree to allow the people to enter the capital to report the emperor.
The officials along the way could not be stopped.
Violators will be killed without mercy!
He also ordered the government to provide disaster relief during the famine.
They also had to pay to buy back the children sold by the commoners and hand them over to the poor commoners to reunite with them.
Such actions, and so on…
These were all things that the rulers of the past dynasties had never done.
It could be said that there was no one like him in the past or in the future.
It could be seen that Old Zhu really couldn't bear to see the commoners suffer.
"It's good that Lin 'er understands, but there's someone who doesn't understand this principle."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded his head in relief.
Then, he thought of something and sneered,
"There are always people who want to snatch the remaining rations from the people and squeeze them with all their might!!
To deal with such people, we must use the most ruthless methods to kill them all!!”
Recently.
Old Zhu suspected that there was a problem with the tax.
He had already secretly sent the Jinyiwei to investigate.
He hoped that the result would not disappoint him.
Otherwise, don't blame him for killing!!
Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's meaningful words.
Zhu Zheng understood that Old Zhu had the intention to kill. Someone was probably going to be unlucky.
He secretly shook his head, but did not ask any further.
Just like that, the two of them ate breakfast.
They were experiencing the rare atmosphere of the marketplace.
He laughed and laughed casually.
After a while.
The two of them finished two bowls of soup and four sesame cakes.
Zhu Yuanzhang stood up and held Zhu Zheng's hand as they walked out.
"Take care, sir. Come back often in the future!!”
The shopkeeper of the stall hurriedly greeted him warmly.
The old man selling pancakes at the side also smiled and nodded at the two of them.
Old Zhu was in a good mood, but he glanced at the old man.
The dirty little girl who was wearing open-toed straw sandals.
He sighed to himself, reached out his hand to beckon Jiang Meng and ordered,"
"Reward them!"
After saying that, he didn't look anymore, pulling Zhu Zheng and turning around to leave.
Jiang Qiong thought for a moment, then took out a silver ingot weighing ten taels from his sleeve pocket.
He strode over to the little girl.
He placed the silver ingot in the little girl's hand and said,"
"Take it. This is your reward.
When you're done, let your grandfather bring you to buy a new pair of shoes!!”
The little girl took it in a daze and looked up, not knowing what to do.
The old man beside him was shocked when he saw this. He hurriedly waved his hand and said,
"I can't, I can't. It's too much. How can this old man dare to accept it?"
As he spoke, he took the silver ingot from the little girl's hand and handed it back to Jiang Meng.
However, Jiang Qiong refused to take it.
He smiled and used his eyes to signal Zhu Yuanzhang to leave. He said in a low voice,
"Take it, the emperor gave it to you!!”
"What? It's Lord Hongwu?"
The old man was completely stunned.
He stared blankly at the backs of Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Zheng as they left.
His body trembled uncontrollably, and tears flowed down his face.
The next second, the old man grabbed his granddaughter's hand and knelt on the ground.
He kowtowed heavily and said in a choked voice,
"Thank you for your reward, Master Hongwu!!”
......
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Zheng were already full.
In addition, they had spent the entire morning playing, so they were quite satisfied.
Therefore, the two of them did not delay any longer.
They arrived at their destination.
Great Contribution Lane, Duke Wei's Mansion!
He looked at the plaque in front of him.
Only then did Zhu Zheng say in realization,
"Grandpa, so you said that you brought me here to see a general who can fight, so you're here to see Great General Xu Da!!”
Zhu Yuanzhang laughed." What? You know Xu Da too, little guy?"？”
"How could I not know? The Imperial Guards in the Palace and my grandson have all told me about Great General Xu Da.
He said that he was the most powerful general in Da Ming!!”
Zhu Zheng rolled his eyes and said with a smile.
"Yeah, it's a pity that his body isn't very useful anymore."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with a sigh.
At this moment.
Having received the notice from the Embroidered Uniform Guards, the Duke of Wei Residence's door was immediately opened!!
Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang held Zhu Zheng's hand and slowly stepped forward, crossing the threshold!
In front of her, she saw Xu Da dragging his sick body along with his family and servants.
They greeted him respectfully.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty's Holy Bow is in peace!!”
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty's Holy Bow is in peace!!”
