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

Chapter 422 The emperor fell asleep early in the morning? ! (Please subscribe!!)
Zhu Yuanzhang, who has double panda eyes, a bump on his forehead, and a cane in his hand, said nothing.

Ouyang Lun, who had a bandage on his head, a bruised nose and a swollen face, said nothing.

All the civil and military officials looked at each other and spoke.

The atmosphere in the entire Tai Chi Hall became increasingly weird.

At first, the officials thought that Ouyang Lun had beaten Zhu Yuanzhang unilaterally. After all, the incident took place in the Zongren Mansion, which was Ouyang Lun's territory. If Ouyang Lun wanted to attack Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yuanzhang must have suffered a loss. However, after seeing Zhu Yuanzhang and Ouyang Lun, After the situation of the two of them.

Only then did the officials realize that they had thought about this matter too simply.

This is totally a fight.

What's even more weird is that what happened was that Zhu Yuanzhang was injured like that, but Ouyang Lun was not imprisoned in the sky prison, but came to court as usual. Did Zhu Yuanzhang not want to convict Ouyang Lun?

But the way Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Ouyang Lun just now didn't look like him either!
At this moment, the officials also knew very well that the news they had received was only from the clan's mansion. They could not judge the authenticity of the news at all. Maybe there were other hidden secrets in it.

Unable to know what happened in the Zongren Mansion last night and the details of the fight between Ouyang Lun and Zhu Yuanzhang, no one dared to get involved. Even the prince Zhu Biao, who was involved, was silent at this moment. What!

Not to mention beating the emperor, even the records of killing the emperor are there, but the people inside are either powerful ministers or regent queens. The emperors who were killed were also puppets of the young emperor, but what about Ouyang Lun? ?

Of course, Zhu Yuanzhang felt a little proud after seeing Ouyang Lun's appearance.

Are you going to leave it like this?
Or is this the calm before the storm, with more danger behind it? ?

This time it was really a mess. In the fight yesterday, Ouyang Lun took into account that Zhu Yuanzhang was an old man in his early sixties and the emperor after all, so he did not kill him at all. He spared his hand many times, but he was injured by Zhu Yuanzhang.

So at this time, any official with a right mind would know not to speak easily.

Um! ?

Feeling Zhu Yuanzhang's gaze, Ouyang Lun also cursed in his heart.

Although he was very reluctant, Ouyang Lun still came to Tai Chi Hall for the sake of the three ladies and the children in their bellies.

The atmosphere in Tai Chi Hall became increasingly tense.

Originally, Zhu Yuanzhang was going to cancel the morning court after being beaten like this, but it is estimated that rumors outside are already flying all over the sky. If he, the emperor, does not go to the morning court, the rumors will only spread more powerfully.

Beat the emperor, and if you win, you can still stand in the court and pay your respects in the morning!
As long as Ouyang Lun doesn't die today, he will really create a record that has never been seen before or since.

There are emperors here and there, but they are clearly ruffians.

The looks in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were cautious, fearing to offend Zhu Yuanzhang, but the looks in Ouyang Lun's eyes were rich, some were gloating, some were curious, and most of them were filled with admiration.

Zhu Yuanzhang felt unhappy in his heart and body at the moment. It could be said that he felt unhappy everywhere.

It has to be you—Ouyang Consort! !

"Minister Shan, please tell me." Zhu Yuanzhang moved his buttocks because it had been kicked by Ouyang Lun and it would be very painful if he did it for a long time.

The main reason is that I drank too much yesterday, my head was a little dizzy, and my hands and feet were weak. Otherwise, I could have dealt with Ouyang Lun even more miserably!

Oh shit!

Your Majesty actually didn't cause trouble for Ouyang's consort as soon as he came up. Is it possible that Your Majesty doesn't intend to deal with Ouyang Lun? ?

Even if they didn't speak, the officials' eyes never stopped, observing Zhu Yuanzhang and Ouyang Lun one by one.

"If no one reports, then today's morning meeting will end here!"

All civil and military officials also saw what he and Ouyang Lun looked like now.

what happened?

All civil and military officials were shocked.

Ouyang Lun and Zhu Yuanzhang looked at each other briefly, and then quickly looked away, pretending that neither one saw the other.

I should cancel today’s morning meeting! !

Originally injured, Ouyang Lun was not in the mood to come to the morning court at all, but he was forcibly helped up from the bed by Princess Anqing, Tang Miaomiao, and Xu Miaoyun. They were worried that if Ouyang Lun did not come to the morning court, Zhu Yuanzhang would use this method. In order to avoid giving Zhu Yuanzhang a chance to get angry, he forced Ouyang Lun to come to court.

As the son-in-law, he beat an adult emperor who was in power, and this was also the founding emperor!
It can be said that it is unmatched by any minister.

As the emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang sat in a high position. Although the small movements and eyes of the civil and military officials were extremely hidden, they were still caught in his eyes.

After much thought, Zhu Yuanzhang decided to hold this morning court.

Just when the civil and military officials thought that Zhu Yuanzhang was about to get angry, Zhu Yuanzhang said in a deep voice: "My dear friends, what are you going to say to me this morning?"

Hum hum, this time you Ouyang Lun also know how powerful I, Zhu Yuanzhang, am, right? Aren't you awesome? Not only was the nose and face swollen and the arm was broken, we both suffered a lose-lose situation! !

"Your Majesty, I have this report!" Shan Anren, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, stood up quickly and said.

Ouyang Lun, you bastard!
We were fighting, but I didn't let you be so cruel! !

None of the civil and military officials could guess what Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking.

Although I don't know how to deal with the matter between His Majesty and Ouyang Lun, we can't delay the business.

Moreover, Zhu Yuanzhang was extremely insidious, either attacking the lower three groups, or inserting noses and pinching ears!

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang moving his buttocks on the dragon throne, Shan Anren, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, couldn't look straight at him. He quickly lowered his head. He was really afraid that he would laugh out loud later and make fun of the emperor. That would be a death penalty!

Zhu Yuanzhang's words brought back the officials who were still confused.

"Dear ladies, do you have nothing to report or are you still awake?"

Zhu Yuanzhang originally thought that Ouyang Lun was beaten badly by him yesterday, and because of Ouyang Lun's lazy character, he would definitely not come to the morning court today, and the two would not meet. As a result, he came to the court, and Ouyang Lun also came. Up to court.

Not only Shan Anren, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, but also other officials quickly lowered their heads and suppressed their smiles, which made them even more uncomfortable.

"Your Majesty, throughout last year, our Ming Dynasty built dozens of new national highways, connecting more than ten provinces across the country, and also built hundreds of provincial roads. Today, our Ming Dynasty's road transportation can be said to be extremely perfect!"

"According to the first five-year plan, large reservoirs, stations, and highways will be built next. This budget"

After hearing the report from Shan Anren, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slowly, "The Ministry of Industry has indeed worked hard this year, and its achievements are obvious to all. As for the budget."

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Ouyang Lun and said, "As for the budget, the Ministry of Industry will discuss it directly with the Prince and the Ministry of Household Affairs!"

"Speaking of which, I just want to announce something. Next, the prince will be deeply involved in the five-year plan and coordinate all parties. You must have the power to cooperate!"

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will definitely assist His Royal Highness!"

This is delegating power to His Highness the Crown Prince!
All the officials speculated in their hearts.

Not only does it mean delegating power, but it may also mean that Prince Zhu Biao can be used to check and balance the consort Ouyang Lun.

All the officials kept thinking about Zhu Yuanzhang's arrangements, but the reporting did not stop. All the ministries of the imperial court reported the latest events to Zhu Yuanzhang.

At the end of the year, there are more things going on, so officials have more time to report.

Perhaps it was because of drinking or fighting yesterday that Zhu Yuanzhang felt sleepy while listening, and unknowingly fell asleep sitting on the dragon chair. Forehead.
Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang asleep, the officials who were still reporting could only shut up in embarrassment.

The officials were also a little confused at this moment.

This was the first time they saw His Majesty the Emperor sleeping on the dragon throne, and they were a little helpless.

Wake up the emperor?
Who dares!
Just pretend you didn't see it and continue reporting?
What if the emperor wakes up?
For a moment, Tai Chi Hall became completely quiet.

After a while, the only sound left in the Tai Chi Hall was Zhu Yuanzhang's sleeping breathing.

"Lord Lu, what should we do?" Song Lian asked in a low voice to Lu Chang beside him.

"Master Song, if you ask me about this, who should I ask?" Lu Chang said helplessly.

"How about we ask His Highness the Crown Prince?" Song Lian said softly.

After the words fell, Prince Zhu Biao took the initiative to walk to Song Lian and said, "Teacher, my father has been dealing with government affairs for the past few days, and last night..."

Zhu Biao was too embarrassed to tell what happened yesterday, "Hey, let's let Father sleep for a while. We'll wait here until Father wakes up and continue the morning court!"

"That's all we can do." Song Lian, Lu Chang and other veterans nodded.

"Don't tell me, your Majesty's snoring is quite loud."

"Wait, why did I hear two grunts?"

"Two snores? Is there anyone else sleeping besides His Majesty?"

"No! Except for Your Majesty, everyone else is standing well."

"Do you think it could be Ouyang Consort? He has been standing there since the morning, motionless, and the sound seems to come from him."

"Holy crap! It's true."

After confirming that Ouyang Lun and Zhu Yuanzhang were sleeping, the civil and military officials were completely speechless.

But now they have nothing to do except wait for the two of them to wake up.

after awhile.

Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly woke up.

I actually fell asleep!
Zhu Yuanzhang was surprised in his heart.

It seems that I am really old! I stayed up late drinking and had a fight yesterday, but my body couldn't bear it anymore.

"Cough cough."

"My dear friends, let's continue!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

All civil and military officials also ignored it and continued to report.

After all the officials had finished reporting, Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a moment and slowly said: "My dear friends, in the blink of an eye, it has been twenty years since the Ming Dynasty was founded!"

"Do you think there are any unresolved issues in Ming Dynasty?"

What else is unresolved?
When the officials heard Zhu Yuanzhang ask this question, although they were a little stunned as to why Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly asked this question, they still thought about it seriously.

"Back to Your Majesty, we don't have enough talents in Ming Dynasty! Nowadays, all walks of life are short of talents, and officials are also in short supply! Please Your Majesty, please hold more civil service examinations and imperial examinations!!"

"Yep!"

"agree!"

"It's so bad now!"

After hearing the words of these officials, Zhu Yuanzhang's face suddenly darkened.

Is this the only thing you can think of?
Talent training is over, isn’t it difficult?
I've asked you this, can't you think of something difficult?
As the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang was the founder of the Ming Dynasty. As an emperor, he also had many big ideas in his mind.

For example, solving maritime troubles and creating a prosperous Hongwu era. And completely wiping out the Beiyuan regime! !
The problem of sea disasters was solved as early as when Dongying Chaozi was conquered and the 055 drove across the sea!

Although Ouyang Lun did not want to admit that Ouyang Lun was very powerful, as long as he continued to develop according to the five-year plan, it would not be difficult for Ming Dynasty to have a prosperous Hongwu era.

So what Zhu Yuanzhang is most concerned about now is the complete elimination of the Beiyuan regime.

Only by completely eliminating the Beiyuan regime can Ming's status be truly consolidated. This will be the last major thing Zhu Yuanzhang can do for future emperors of the Ming Dynasty!

In the past, Zhu Yuanzhang could only think about this idea in his heart and did not dare to realize it easily, but it is different now. In the past few years, the Ming Dynasty has cultivated its health and developed rapidly, both economically and militarily. leap!
Commanding the Northern Expedition, launching a new Great Wall, and completely annihilating Bei Yuan, this is no longer a dream!
These short-sighted ministers cannot guess what I am thinking, Ouyang Lun.
Forehead.
Ouyang Lun moved his eyes to Ouyang Lun, and happened to see Ouyang Lun fast asleep, standing up straight, with fake eye paper attached to his eyes!

Damn it!

Zhu Yuanzhang really wanted to wake Ouyang Lun up, but he thought that he had just fallen asleep. If he really woke up Ouyang Lun and scolded him, it would feel like "only the state officials are allowed to set fires, but the people are not allowed to use lights."

They are all a bunch of trash! !

"My dear friends, have you forgotten that there is a fierce tiger staring covetously outside the northern border of Ming Dynasty?"

"This tiger used to be the overlord of the Central Plains. It was just driven away by us and was not completely eliminated! It may pounce on our Ming Dynasty at any time!"

"Although Northern Xinjiang has built a brand new Great Wall to defend against the enemy's attack in the north, if you defend it for a long time, you will lose. Don't you understand this truth?"

"If I can't completely eliminate this tiger, how can I feel at ease?"

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't bother to let the officials guess, so he spoke directly.

oh oh!

Hearing this, all the officials reacted one after another. It turned out that this was what His Majesty wanted to say!

Tiger?

I'm talking about Beiyuan.

Your Majesty, is he going to launch a war against Beiyuan?

It has only been developing for a while. Do you want to take action just after you have achieved results?

fight!

This means that the Ming Dynasty will transform into a war machine. Everything will focus on war, and countless money will be invested.

And listening to Zhu Yuanzhang's tone, it is obvious that Zhu Yuanzhang does not just want to fight Bei Yuan, but wants to fight a war to destroy the country!
The war will not stop until Bei Yuan is completely wiped out.

This five-year plan has only been implemented for the first year, and more investment will be made in the future. If war is added, what will happen next? ?
