Chapter 139 What Happened Six Years Ago

Time flies, and six years have passed in the blink of an eye.

It is now the tenth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty.

In recent days, Zhu Yuanzhang occasionally suffered from wind-cold ailments. Now that he has recovered from the ailments, he started boxing in the back garden of the palace.

After less than a quarter of an hour of boxing, I felt that my body was getting more and more tired and I was out of breath.

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and had to accept his old age.

Counting his years, he is now fifty years old, the year when he knows his destiny.

The Ming Dynasty has been established in his hands for ten years. During these years, he has ruled the Ming Dynasty and worked hard to recuperate and prosper. The Ming Dynasty has become increasingly prosperous and the country has been consolidated.

Thinking that the country had been consolidated, something flashed in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes.

"Two Tigers!"

"I'm here."

"Send a message to the palace and come to the palace to see us."

"Tell him that we have agreed to his request to borrow troops to conquer."

"Ah? Yes."

Erhu was shocked.

Ever since the Ming Dynasty's first imperial examination was marred by fraud six years ago, for some unknown reason, the emperor suddenly fell out of favor with Prince Ming. For six years, the elusive Prince Ming never set foot in the palace again, and the emperor never summoned Prince Ming again.

Until today, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly summoned King Ming and agreed to borrow troops.

"Also, Xu Da also came to the palace to meet us."

"yes."



Imperial Palace, Imperial Study Room.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked slightly cold, and the old coach Xu Da sat aside, quietly waiting for someone.

Taking advantage of someone's future, Zhu Yuanzhang spoke to Xu Da.

"Second brother, he will be arriving soon. There are some things I need to tell you in advance."

"We want you to command the 300,000 troops and horses he wants to borrow."

Xu Da frowned and said directly.

"Your Majesty, don't blame me for saying bluntly, now that the Ming Dynasty has been consolidated, King Ming may really be a god, but because of this, as a god, he must take into account the overall situation of the people in the world..."

"I think it's better to continue delaying the borrowing of troops, or just tell him no."

"Prince Ming should be able to understand it."

"The exchange of those few sesame cakes back then for a king's title was already a huge reward for him."

Zhu Yuanzhang gave a rare wry smile.

"Haha, do you care about the overall interests of the people in the world?"

"He once said that if someone oppresses him because of the overall situation, he will definitely regard them as mortal enemies and will rise up and kill them. What is the overall situation? If we really want to talk about the overall situation, he himself is the overall situation!"

"You also know that he has this ability."

"We are the emperor, we shouldn't break our promises, and we don't dare to break our promises to him."

Xu Da was a little silent after hearing this, and then asked.

"Your Majesty, I understand your concerns, but please tell me, what happened that night six years ago? Your Majesty, why did you anger him? Why didn't he enter the palace for six years?"

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and briefly told what happened at that stage six years ago, as well as more national policies that Wang Ming later mentioned.

Xu Da took a breath after hearing this.

"In the reform of the imperial examination system, in addition to Confucianism, three new subjects will be added?"

"As expected of King Ming, he is so courageous. This is simply tapping into the roots of Confucianism!"



"No wonder, no wonder, no wonder after that night, even Liu Bowen and Li Shan made peace. There was no talk of partisanship in the court. Such is the relationship!"

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled.

"Yes, just because of this, Li Shanchang is willing to join forces with Liu Bowen."

"For no other reason than because, no matter how hostile Li Shanchang and Liu Bowen are, they are both Confucians."

"At that time, when the Ming Dynasty was established, ninety-nine percent of the people in the world

Civil servants are all Confucian students, do you think we can agree to this?"

Xu Da's eyes flashed fiercely when he heard this.

"It is indeed not a good thing if all civil servants are appointed by Confucians."

"Besides, Your Majesty, you still have brothers like us."

"Your Majesty, you shouldn't have been soft-hearted at that time. If you were more ruthless, at worst you could attack the world again and I wouldn't believe it. The heads of those civil servants are stronger than our knives!"

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head.

"If it's just to deal with Confucianism, or even if it's to deal with the civil servants of the entire world, I'd be really cruel and agree to it."

"But you know, he then said two more eternal national policies!"

"What national policy?"

"Investigate the entire country's acres of land, hide the tenants of the land, and divide the land into acres!"

"Also, the officials and the gentry will receive the food together!"

hiss!

Xu Da took a breath of cold air.

"Doesn't this mean we have to make enemies of all the wealthy landlords, gentry, and wealthy families in the world!"

"This, this, this..."

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed dejectedly.

"Yes, if it is just to deal with Confucianism, I will agree to it with all my heart."

"But we also need to add all the wealthy landlords, gentry, and wealthy families in the world."

"Then we really want to make enemies of the whole world."

"The whole world is our enemy!"

"So we hesitated at that time and delayed the reply perfunctorily."

"After that, he didn't enter the palace for six years."

"Originally, three years ago, I should have lent him 300,000 soldiers and horses to conquer the Japanese country."

"But he didn't see us for six whole years."

"Now that the Ming Dynasty is stable, we have some confidence to talk to him."

"We don't dare to let Ming do this now, but we want to see the effect of doing so. Therefore, we want you to lead an army of 300,000 people and go to the Japanese country to see for yourself the results of doing so."

Xu Da hesitated.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I understand. However, I am now nearly fifty years old and my health is not as good as before. I am worried..."

"Don't worry, he is a god. It shouldn't be difficult to restore your youth and health."

"You should also know that since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, we have not been sick once for ten years, and our body is as strong as a thirty-year-old man."

Xu Da's eyes widened.

"So that's really the case. Let me just say that Prince Ming is a god. His appearance is ageless and he is free from illness and disaster."

"But Your Majesty, you are always busy with everything. You have been doing this for ten years, but you are still as healthy and as strong as an ox. Even the prince turned fifty last month."

"Unlike us, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, my health has been getting worse day by day. I have only given birth to a few sons, and I don't dare to approach women anymore. There were too many bloody battles and hidden injuries on the battlefield, and I walked so far into the palace.

, I’m even a little out of breath.”

"Look, my hair is much grayer now."

"Oh, Your Majesty, why didn't you say this earlier? If you had said it earlier, I would also beg for his help..."

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled awkwardly.

"Actually, our health hasn't been that good recently. We even felt a little cold the past two days, and we just came back today."

Xu Da was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then he understood.

"Oh oh...no wonder, it turns out there is another reason."

Although Wang Ming passed on Zhu Yuanzhang's Nine Sun Magic Kung Fu, Zhu Yuanzhang governed the world every day. Wherever he could find time to practice Kung Fu, he made great progress very slowly. His body has been as strong as an ox for ten years, all because of that time.

Wang Mingchuan tells about his ten years of true energy.

Now that ten years have passed, the true energy of those ten years has been almost gone, which is why Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly felt a cold.

This minor illness from wind and cold also reminded Zhu Yuanzhang and alerted him.

There are some things that if you don't agree to them again, it will be difficult to undo them.
