Daming: I can’t kill such a greedy prince-in-law?

Chapter 239 Finally showed off in front of Ouyang Lun (please subscribe!!)
Um! ! ? ?

hiss--

Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly asked this question.

Tang He and Xu Da took a breath of cold air.

All fools know what Zhu Yuanzhang meant by asking this question!

Ouyang Lun looked surprised. For the first time, he felt that the cheap uncle in front of him was not simple! !

Just ask a businessman, even if the businessman is a relative of the emperor, the capital issue is not something he can consider.

Just a blind cat bumping into a dead mouse?Or has this guy been pretending to be a pig in front of me? ?
Ouyang Lun was not in a hurry to answer Zhu Yuanzhang's questions, but kept looking at Zhu Yuanzhang.

Facing Ouyang Lun's scrutiny, Zhu Yuanzhang also realized that he had been too anxious just now and asked questions that were inappropriate for his status.

However, the issue of the capital must be clarified, so Zhu Yuanzhang had no choice but to explain with a smile: "Um, nephew, I'm just curious to ask. If you can't answer, there's no need to look at me like this, right?"

Ouyang Lun took a deep look at Zhu Yuanzhang, "Why did my uncle ask if Beiping could become the capital? You must know that Beiping's location is too prominent, right on the border of the Ming Dynasty. As the saying goes, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. This is why uncle should Is it still clear?”

Oops!

This kid really started to get suspicious.

Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly felt a little nervous, but Zhu Yuanzhang was also the founding emperor after all, and his mental quality was not a little bit strong, so he immediately thought of the reason.

"Looking at what you said, I still know something about Peiping."

"Beiping had been the capital of other dynasties before. In 936 AD, Shi Jingtang, the governor of Hedong in the Later Tang Dynasty, asked Taizong of the Liao Dynasty to send troops to help him rebel against the Later Tang Dynasty, on the condition that he ceded the Sixteen Youyun Prefectures and recognized Emperor Taizong of the Liao Dynasty Yelv Deguang as his father. The Liao State sent troops to defeat the Later Tang Army, helped Shi Jingtang establish the Later Jin Dynasty, and successfully obtained the rule of the sixteen states of Yanyun. So in 938 AD, Emperor Taizong Yelu Deguang of the Liao Dynasty changed Youzhou to Nanjing as the capital of the Liao State."

"In 1122 AD, the Jin Kingdom captured Nanjing of the Liao Kingdom, which is now Beiping, and thus occupied the five capitals of the Liao Kingdom. The Northern Liao Dynasty was destroyed. Later, the Northern Song Dynasty exchanged Sui coins for some cities in the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun. However, the Jin Dynasty was not satisfied, and later found an excuse to launch another war and destroyed the Northern Song Dynasty. In 1153 AD, Wanyan Liang established his capital in Yanjing, which is now Beiping, and was called Zhongdu."

“Finally, in 1215 AD, Muhuali under Genghis Khan captured Beiping. Kublai Khan, the founder of the Yuan Dynasty, made Beiping the capital in 1272 AD and called it the capital of the Yuan Dynasty. In other words, before Xu Da conquered Beiping, Beiping had always been the capital of the Yuan Dynasty! "

"So Peking is fully capable of serving as the capital. It is not impossible to move the capital of the Ming Dynasty from Nanjing to Peking!"

After Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, Ouyang Lun applauded directly, "Uncle, I really underestimated you. I didn't expect that you are actually familiar with history!"

"Huh, there are people outside the world and there are mountains outside the mountains. You are not the only one who knows history!" Zhu Yuanzhang looked proud.

I was taught by Ouyang Lun before, but today I finally showed off in front of Ouyang Lun. It feels really good!
The reason why he is so familiar with the history of Peking is mainly because after listening to Ouyang Lun's "Dragon Vein Theory of Luck" last time, the idea of ​​moving the capital came to mind, so he did a particularly careful study of Peking, including the history of Peking. , comes in handy.

Of course, although he said so, deep down in his heart Zhu Yuanzhang did not want to move the capital to Peking. After all, he was doing well in Nanjing. A sudden move of the capital would not only cause turmoil, but the cost of moving the capital would also be very high. A sum of money, and Beiping is too close to the border, and the risk index is too high!

I asked this because I wanted to see Ouyang Lun's attitude.

Ouyang Lun said with a smile: "Uncle, this is a good question! Heroes think alike!"

"To be honest, if my emperor father-in-law is really willing to move the capital to Beiping, then I will definitely support it with both hands!"

"Oh!" Zhu Yuanzhang was overjoyed. Ouyang Lun was indeed fooled. "Then please tell me in detail the reason for moving the capital."

"Didn't my uncle just say that Peiping was the ancient capital of three dynasties before, and it has the ability to be a capital. As for security reasons," Ouyang Lun smiled slightly, "Now our Beizhili has a population of millions, an army of more than 30, and With the brand new Great Wall as a barrier, even if a million troops from the grassland come to attack, as long as the monarch, ministers and people work together, they can easily block it!"

"And if the Ming Dynasty moves its capital to Beiping, Beiping will definitely undergo a major expansion, which will further develop Beiping. In the future, the entire Beizhili will become the political, military, economic, and cultural center of the Ming Dynasty!"

"As long as my emperor father-in-law is willing to come, I promise to build him a palace more luxurious than the Nanjing Imperial Palace. From now on, he only needs to clock in and work in the palace every day, and enjoy his old age in peace!"

Uh-huh! !
Um? ?

It sounds like something is getting more and more wrong!
Isn't it a disguised form of house arrest for us to build a big house, live in it, and enjoy our old age in peace?

Zhu Yuanzhang broke into a cold sweat! !

Looking at Ouyang Lun again, the boy was smiling, and his eyes seemed to be cunning. This reminded Zhu Yuanzhang of a figure in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the traitor Cao Cao!

This guy raised his hands to welcome him to Beizhili. I'm afraid he didn't want to imitate the treacherous Prime Minister Cao Cao and hold the emperor hostage to order the princes!

Although Ouyang Lun doesn't value power that much, he's not afraid of ten thousand, just in case. Now that Beizhili is managed like iron by Ouyang Lun, it's really irrational to move the capital to Peking rashly.

That's it.

The luck of the dragon vein is not as important as his safety.

The matter of moving the capital is not considered for the time being.

Ouyang Lun didn't know what Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking at all, so he smiled and said: "Uncle, I think you can tell my father-in-law, the emperor, about moving the capital together with the previous things. If it happens, I will give you the latest The Hongqi carriage will be equipped with brand-new technology. In addition, you can also make requests. As long as I can do it, I will definitely solve it for you."

Hey!
This is going to cost a lot of money!

Zhu Yuanzhang became more and more suspicious that Ouyang Lun's move to move the capital was a naked conspiracy.

"Ahem, nephew, I'm actually just talking about this casually. As far as I know, when Xu Da captured Beiping City, the court had discussed the matter of moving the capital. Most people still thought of staying in Nanjing. Better and safer!"

"So I'm afraid your idea of ​​moving the capital won't be completed."

Zhu Yuanzhang pointed at Xu Da and said, "The Duke of Wei, Xu Da, knows this."

Xu Da nodded, "Yes, I remember that the discussion was very intense at that time. In the end, His Majesty the Emperor made the decision. Nanjing is still the capital of the Ming Dynasty, and Peking is indeed too dangerous."

Hearing this, Ouyang Lun helplessly spread his hands and said regretfully: "Since you all think so, then I have nothing to say." Seeing Ouyang Lun's regretful look, Zhu Yuanzhang became more and more sure that he was right in not moving the capital to Peking. choose.

There is a feeling of foiling Ouyang Lun's conspiracy.

Ouyang Lun, Zhu Yuanzhang and his party walked around Qinghe Trade City for several times, and then rushed back to Changyuguan.

Queen Ma stood on the city wall waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang.

Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang quickly took off his cloak and put it on Queen Ma, "Sister, you are still sick, and you still come out when it is so cold! What if you catch the cold again?"

"I stayed in the house. Although the coal stove was warm, I felt a little faint, so I came out to get some fresh air, just in time to wait for you." Empress Ma said a little weakly.

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang felt heartbroken, "Sister, let's go in quickly. If you get sick again, that boy Ouyang Lun will have to blame us again tomorrow."

"Haha, Chongba, I really didn't expect you to be afraid of your son-in-law." Empress Ma laughed, and then walked into the house with Zhu Yuanzhang's support.

"Chongba, you went to visit Qinghe Trading City on the grassland today. What did you gain?" Queen Ma asked curiously.

"Sister, you don't know that Qinghe Trading City was built by Ouyang Lun to be larger than most towns in the Ming Dynasty. It has a complete range of goods and is very lively. Ming merchants, grassland people and merchants from other countries trade with each other!" Zhu Yuanzhang said immediately.

"I thought the so-called Qinghe Trading City was just a grassland market with a few earthen walls, but I didn't expect it to be so luxurious. Unfortunately, if I hadn't been sick, I would have been able to see the largest trading city on the grassland. Style!”

Queen Ma smiled.

"Sister, if you want to go, I'll take you there after you recover. It's guaranteed to be fun and there will be a lot of new and interesting things." Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Chongba, what's wrong with you? You seem to have encountered something unhappy. Could it be that Ouyang kid made you angry again?" Queen Ma asked quickly.

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and told Queen Ma everything about his trip to Qinghe Trading City.

After listening, Queen Ma also fell into deep thought.

"Sister, what do you think we should do? Now Ouyang Lun is getting more and more dangerous!" Zhu Yuanzhang said fearfully.

"Chongba, you have already made decisions about Zhou Zhen and the trade with the grassland, so I won't say more. However, you suspect that Ouyang, Tang He, and Xu Da are joining forces to rebel, but I think you want to Too much."

"Xu Da, Tang He and that are the sworn brothers who have followed you to conquer the country. Others can't do it, so why can't you trust them? Although you don't like Ouyang, he is your son-in-law after all, and he and An Qing have a very good relationship. ! And based on Ouyang’s character, he has no idea about power. Even if you ask him to be the emperor, he may not do it. "

Queen Ma said hurriedly.

"Sister, you are right. We mainly heard the last words of that boy Ouyang Lun. We always feel a little uneasy, so we don't plan to move the capital to Peking."

"What we are struggling with now is how to deal with this boy Ouyang Lun!"

"You don't know that this kid was so bold today that he recognized me as your brother and insisted on recognizing me as your uncle, and then he started scolding me!"

"So, my new identity now is aunt?!" Queen Ma's face was filled with joy. "My aunt is also my mother. I suddenly look forward to Ouyang, the child, coming to see me again."

cough cough.

"Sister, this isn't the point, okay?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was quite speechless.

"Chongba, I think you have already made up your mind. If you really want to attack Ouyang, you won't come back and discuss it with me again." Empress Ma continued: "You can directly tell me your thoughts Let me tell you, and I will give you some advice.”

Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while and said: "Since Zhou Zhen's disappearance and collusion with the grassland have nothing to do with Ouyang Lun, we are not going to deal with him. After all, there are several projects going on at the same time in Beizhili. If Ouyang Lun is arrested, Getting up or killing him will affect not only the development of Beizhili, but also the development of the entire Ming Dynasty."

"And you still need Ouyang Lun to get your medicine. Keeping him for now will bring more benefits than killing him directly."

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang had no intention of dealing with Ouyang Lun, Empress Ma breathed a sigh of relief, "Then what are you going to do next, Chongba? Go back to the capital directly?"

"No!" Zhu Yuanzhang immediately shook his head, "Although the matter of doing business with the prairie people can be put aside for the time being, Zhou Zhen has not been found yet, and it is not clear whether he is alive or dead. Besides, we also want to see more of Beizhili. Let's see what else Ouyang Lun is hiding from us."

"And the most important thing is, sister, you are suffering from wasting disease. Ouyang Lun and Dai Shenyi both said that you should have a good rest during this period. Even if you take a BMW X9 back to the capital, you will be very tired. It’s not good for your health, so we’d better stay in Beizhili for a while.”

Queen Ma nodded, "It's up to you."

"But I miss my daughter. I wonder if I can see our daughter."

"It was a little inconvenient before, but it's different now. Ouyang Lun recognized us as relatives of the emperor and called us uncles. Don't worry, even if we don't take the initiative to ask, Ouyang Lun will ask Princess Anqing to come and see us. Yes, we will be able to meet our daughter by then, but we have to ask her to keep it a secret from us, because we are afraid that our daughter will sell us out later." Zhu Yuanzhang muttered.

"Don't worry. Every time I come here with you, I will go and see my daughter. I have also told my daughter not to expose our identity. As long as you don't kill Ouyang, our daughter will not expose us." Empress Ma said with a smile.

"That's good, that's good!" Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and nodded.

"Chongba, what do you think we should just reveal our identity to this kid Ouyang?" Queen Ma thought for a while and said.

"No, no, no." Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head repeatedly, "We have discussed this matter many times. Let's not talk about anything else. This guy Ouyang Lun came to Beizhili just to avoid us."

Queen Ma interjected: "Ouyang, this kid is trying to avoid you, not me!"

"Yes, he came to Beizhili just to avoid me." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and continued: "So if Ouyang Lun knows our true identity, what will he think of us? Will he follow us like he did in the past? Do we have anything to say?"

"What if we scare Ouyang Lun away again?"

"Now Beizhili needs Ouyang Lun, the construction of the new Great Wall city needs Ouyang Lun, and even the maritime trade needs Ouyang Lun. If he abandons his job and runs away again, the loss will be tens of millions or even hundreds of millions. It will be difficult to find him again. ”
