Chapter 5 The Son's Speech

It was getting late, and the lights were on in the farmhouse in the backyard of the King of Wu's Mansion, and frogs crowed by the stream.

Zhu Yuanzhang lay on the side of the bamboo chair, his trouser legs rolled up with his sleeves, and he was flipping through the book in a row.

The noodles on the table were already cold and there were no chopsticks to move. Ma was busy in the heat of the room, and the few little maids next to him helped him get started.

Zhu Biao stood not far away, and he felt that he needed to get involved in the matter of Jiandu.

He will also be the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty in the future.

The most important thing is that the mess was cleaned up in the late Ming Dynasty.

He wanted to take a hot bath tonight, so he asked Jin'er and Sanbao to prepare and took Yu'er out for a walk.

Just as he was about to go over, Yu'er stopped him and smiled slightly, helped him tidy up his clothes, and then stepped aside.

The summer wind was blowing, and it was the teenage girl. The fragrance of the woman on Yu'er also ran to Zhu Biao's nostrils. He closed his eyes, stretched out and took a breath, and walked towards Lao Zhu.

Zhu Yuanzhang's ears were very sharp. Before Zhu Biao could speak, he threw down the book and turned around to look at the person who came.

"Biao'er." He reached out and held the mosquitoes on his arm, grabbed the legs that pulled the mosquitoes one by one: "Tell us."

"good."

Today, Zhu Yuanzhang was very happy when Zhu Biao said on Zhongshan. The more powerful his son was, the happier he was.

In the past, I had no property and family business to inherit for my son. Now that I have it, I am about to build a country of thousands of miles. The people in this world are all his, and there is also someone to inherit it.

Zhu Yuanzhang thought of this and patted the stool next to him and said to Zhu Biao: "Come on, sit here."

When Yu'er saw the father and son whispering, she poured tea for them and put it on the table. Then she walked to the house to help Queen Ma do things.

Zhu Yuanzhang touched Zhu Biao's head and sighed: "I'm almost as tall as us. I was so big with you back then, and I didn't think about anything every day, just thinking about how to fill my stomach."

I want to lobby Lao Zhu to lobby the capital to Yingtian. Now I have to make my father happy so that he can talk about other things.

Zhu Biao nodded, took over the conversation and said respectfully: "Now grandpa will be happy for his father when he sees his current achievements."

"So, we think this capital should be built in Haozhou." Zhu Yuanzhang slapped his thigh and said, "Even if we become emperor a few years later, we can wait, what do you think of Biao'er?"

Although Li Shanchang and the nobles in Huaixi all hope to establish the capital of Haozhou, everyone can return to their hometown with glory and glory.

But Zhu Yuanzhang still hoped to hear what Zhu Biao meant. His son was now thirteen years old, and in another two years, he would choose a good marriage for him.

To put it bluntly, this country in the future is actually the family business he built for Zhu Biao.

Among the sons, the one he likes the most is Zhu Biao, so he also wants to hear about Jiandu.

I was used to making decisions in my previous life, and now I have to discuss with Lao Zhu. Zhu Biao always feels that he can't use his fists.

Now Lao Zhu asked himself, then boldly talk about his thoughts: "There will be variables when things are delayed for a long time, so my father should say today, and it is better to be the emperor as soon as possible. The capital is still in Yingtian."

"All our brothers in Huaixi are waiting to be granted a title of marquis and ministers, so it is definitely necessary to become emperor."

"Which brothers? Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, Li Wenzhong and others are still fighting outside." Ma didn't know when he stood behind the two of them.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked up and whispered: "Girl, the inner court will not interfere in politics in the future. This is the rule we set."

Ma ignored it and just looked at Zhu Biao with hope, hoping that their son could persuade him.

"Looking at the world, all the places suitable for capitals are Chang'an, Luoyang, Bianjing, and the country was established by Zhou, Qin, Han, Wei, Tang, and Song dynasties.

But when we were pacified, the war was already exhausting the people and the money was damaged, and these places did not recover.

Dadu has not been completely conquered yet. Even if it is conquered, there will be tens of thousands of palaces and houses in Dadu, and then more manpower and material resources will be spent to transform and replace them. The materials and money needed will be transported from Jiangnan, which will cost too high."

Zhu Biao was afraid that he would be somewhat different from his original body and would be suspected by Lao Zhu and Ma.

Lao Zhu was stunned when he heard Zhu Biao's analysis. His son's words surprised him these few times.

This is a good thing, and you have the talent to govern the country.

"Biao'er, you continue."

Lao Zhu laughed. After all, he was also a poor man, and his ancestors' hope was his son.

"Dad, my son has already said on Zhongshan that the rivers and rivers can be relied on the front and back of the Huai River, and the water can be used to transport water. Haozhou is flat and unpredictable, and there is no condition for building a capital."

Old Zhu was wondering if it was his wife Ma Dajiao again, so he turned around and looked at Ma: "Sister, let's heat the noodles for us."

The main purpose of building a capital by oneself is to maintain the long-term rule of oneself and his descendants. He has cultivated this child from a young age and placed high hopes on it.

The delay is to let Zhu Biao build his favorite capital. Since he said Yingtian is good now, he just follows his son's ideas.

"Dad, change Yingtian to Nanjing."

"Nan*jing? Why?"

"In ancient times, it was said that the beautiful land of Jiangnan, the imperial state of Jinling, and the capital of the south. Moreover, the Yuan court used the title of Jinling, and his son believed that Yingtian could be called Nanjing.

It is not only the only ancient capital in the ancient capital that has never been a capital of a foreign regime, but it ascended the throne here and is close to its hometown. When the country's strength is stable and prosperous in the future, the people can live and work in peace and contentment, and build the Zhongdu in Haozhou according to Yingtian's regulations."

Zhu Biao said this because he considered that Haozhou was the hometown of Lao Zhu and the hometown of many heroes in Huaixi.

He considered some of the name change. According to the geographical scope, Yingtian is greater than Jinling, and the time scope is farther than Yingtian, and there are differences between the north and south of the Yangtze River.

In terms of time, before the Northern Song Dynasty, it was collectively called Jinling, and it was also called Jiankang, Shangyuan, Baixia, Jiangning, and after the Northern Song Dynasty, it was also called Jiqing, Jiangning and other series.

So I plan to abide by the titles of later generations and do not want to be the same as other dynasties.

Jianzhong has treated these heroes in this way, and it can also make more active contributions to their great achievements. Why not do it?

Lao Zhu didn't expect that his son would become more and more courageous. Not only did he analyze the places suitable for capital construction, but he even changed his name, so he was very satisfied.

What else can be happier than your son's future?

"I am worthy of being my son of Lao Zhu, let's just listen to you and build the capital in Nanjing." Lao Zhu walked around Zhu Biao.

Ma did not expect that the matter that he had worn out and couldn't solve even after he had worn out his mouth, and his son was moved by the stubborn donkey Chongba in a few words.

I have to sigh at the powerful power of the father-son relationship.

The next day, Lao Zhu called Liu Bowen, Li Shanchang and Hu Weiyong to announce the establishment of Yingtian, and told them about Yingtian's change to Nanjing.

Liu Bowen has always supported the capital of Yingtian, and they have no objection to changing the name.

Li Shanchang narrowed his eyes and looked at Liu Bowen with a meaningful look, said congratulations to Mr. Liu and left with Hu Weiyong.

Since the decision has been made, they will do what they are under, and Haozhou will also build Zhongdu, which is appropriate no matter how you say it.

Lao Zhu naturally knew a little about the struggle between these two people.

But the capital has been decided, and now it is to prepare for the day of ascending the throne, and there is no time to care about them.

Zhu Biao felt that many places had just experienced wars and the people needed to slow down. At present, the most important thing is to set the capital first, and wait until all foundations are secure and make new plans.

The north and the south have their own advantages, and both are indispensable, so both must develop advantages.

When I was Chongzhen, I heard the most common sayings from the people, "I would rather be a peaceful ghost than a person in troubled times."
