Chapter 43: Xiping Waiting for Muying
Two days later, after Zhu Yuanzhang finished his morning court, he happily prepared to chat with Dasun.
As of now, in Zhu Yuanzhang's opinion, life with Dasun is the most comfortable.
Zhu Yuanzhang himself has not noticed that his longing for Empress Ma and the Crown Prince Zhu Biao has gradually shifted to Zhu An.
Empress Ma is the woman he loved for the rest of his life, and Zhu Biao is the heir he has devoted all his efforts to cultivate.
Now the two of them have passed away one after another. If Zhu An hadn't happened to appear, Zhu Yuanzhang himself wouldn't have known what would have become.
Since Zhu Biao left, no one knew that every late at night, he would wake up in the middle of the night in his bedroom, crying.
The complicated government affairs and the inability to rest well made Zhu Yuanzhang, a man in his sixties, almost crushed.
Until Zhu An appeared, he now slept very sweetly every night.
Even if you dream, it is a beautiful dream.
Just when he was about to walk out of the palace and meet his dear grandson.
Jiang Yan came over to report: "Your Majesty, the body of the Marquis of Xiping has arrived in the capital."
Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned and then realized that the joy just now was dispersed and replaced by a faint sadness.
Jiang Yan next to him was a little worried. His Majesty fainted once because of Mu Ying's incident. This time, will there be any problems with the body coming again?
However, Zhu Yuanzhang now has obviously been able to withstand more strength, and he has goals and hope in his current life.
Although sad, it is completely within the scope of tolerance.
With a gentle sigh, Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Take us over and have a look."
"Yes, your Majesty."
Zhu Yuanzhang loved Mu Ying the most and felt most at ease.
Mu Ying was only eight years old at the time and wandered to Haozhou City. She was discovered and taken in by Zhu Yuanzhang at that time.
At that time, the prince Zhu Biao was not yet born. As the first adopted son, Mu Ying was highly valued by Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma and was highly trained.
Zhu Yuanzhang and his wife treated him like their own children, not only teaching him to read and read, but also teaching him how to lead troops to fight.
Later, when Zhu Biao was born, Mu Ying even regarded it as his younger brother and did not receive any suspicion from Zhu Yuanzhang.
Mu Ying had a very high military talent and fought for Zhu Yuanzhang all his life, making too many contributions.
It can be said that the reason why Yunnan became a province in the Ming Dynasty was completely inseparable from Mu Ying.
Including the integration of ethnic groups and the export of Han culture to Yunnan, the entire Mu family has an unignorable contribution.
In June of the 25th year of Hongwu, when the news of Mu Ying's death spread, the whole of Yunnan
"The bureaucrats, scholars, clerks, soldiers, monks, and white men." Everyone rushed to the door and cried and cried on the road.
When Mu Ying's eldest son Mu Chun was ordered to escort his father's coffin and buried in the capital. When the coffin came out of Jinma Mountain, Yunnan, people from Yunnan "delivered tens of thousands of people".
This fashion is a long-distance lyricist who has been to Yunnan, and the exiled official Moqing and others have also used poems to summon people's infinite regret and nostalgia for Mu Ying, a famous official of a generation.
Throughout the Ming Dynasty, the Mu family had a high reputation in Yunnan. Mu Ying's descendants guarded Yunnan for generations until the end of the Ming Dynasty.
The Duke of Qian was the only hero of the Ming Dynasty who continued to hold actual territorial power.
"The imperial edict: Mu Ying was buried in Xiaoling, and was posthumously named King Qianning, and was given the title of "Zhaojing", and Youxiang Taimiao."
.........
When Zhu Yuanzhang came to the teahouse again, it was already noon.
This is the second time he left the palace at this time.
The first time was when the prince passed away, and the time he happened to meet Zhu An.
Today, Zhu Yuanzhang was obviously not in the mood to deal with government affairs, so he thought about coming to find Zhu An. When he was sad, he would obviously feel much more comfortable when he saw his eldest grandson.
"Old man, the boss is not in the teahouse now." The shopkeeper Liu Bo was a little surprised when he saw the old man coming.
This was the first time he saw the old man in the afternoon. The teahouse was a little noisy now, and Uncle Liu hurriedly greeted him and said.
"Oh, where are our eldest grandson?" Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help asking.
"This..." It is obvious that Uncle Liu is not easy to answer this question. The boss is in the yard at the moment, and not everyone can enter there.
"Okay, I understand, let's come over next time."
Zhu Yuanzhang said something and took Jiang Yan away.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Zhu..." Jiang Yan said with a silence.
"Lead the way, can we have something else that our eldest grandson can't see?"
Zhu Yuanzhang said casually, and he could naturally guess that Dasun must be in his hidden yard at this moment.
"Yes, Your Majesty, Mr. Zhu's yard is not far ahead."
As the commander-in-chief, Jiang Yan had known Zhu An's hidden yard for a long time.
Under the leadership of Jiang Yin, Zhu Yuanzhang headed towards Zhu An's yard.
.........
"Do you know who I am? My father is Jiangxiahou, his hometown of His Majesty. If you dare to touch half of my hair, His Majesty will definitely kill your nine clans."
In the cellar in the yard, Zhou Ji roared wildly. How could he have thought that someone in the capital would dare to do something to him?
Zhu An stood in front of him and looked at Zhou Ji coldly. Facing this roar, his expression did not change at all.
Just yesterday, Zhou Ji broke into the backyard of the Hou’s Mansion under the pretext of visiting Jingning Hou and forced to see Ye Wanqing.
Forced by the guards of the Marquis's house, he had to leave at that time, but before leaving, he made a harsh statement, and the woman must have done it for him.
In just a few days, his father will return to the court to celebrate His Majesty's birthday.
At that time, I will definitely come to propose marriage. If Jingning Hou does not want to do so, I will ask Your Majesty to issue an order to give the marriage.
Let's see who dares to disobey the imperial order.
This news was soon learned by Zhu An.
Who is Zhu An?
That night, Zhu An sent someone to capture him.
"It's a pity that you shouldn't have died now, you can live for a while, but who wants you to seek death by yourself."
"But the time is almost the same. A few days earlier or later, the difference is not big, do you think so?"
Zhu An sighed softly.
At this time, Zhou Ji suddenly became nervous. He didn't expect that the person in front of him wanted to kill him directly.
"I have money, I have a lot of money. My father is Jiangxiahou. I will give you as much money as you want. A hundred taels or a thousand taels are not a problem."
"Let me go, don't kill me, kill me, you won't get any benefits."
Zhou Ji looked frightened and begged for mercy quickly. He even knelt on the ground regardless of his own dignity.
"I have a lot of money, I can't spend it all, so I don't need it."
After Zhu An finished speaking, a fierce look flashed in his eyes, and he slapped Zhou Ji's Tianling Cover with a palm, killing him instantly.
"It's a cheaper one."
With Zhu An's palm power, Zhou Ji didn't even snort coldly and fell to the ground and died.
At this time, suddenly, subordinates came to report on the cellar.
