King Luhuang of the Ming Dynasty: My father, Ming Taizu

Queen Zhou hugged Zhu Youjian tightly. In fact, Queen Zhou used all her strength to hold Zhu Youjian in her arms.

For Queen Zhou, Zhu Youjian was everything in her life. When they hugged each other, Zhu Youjian felt warm and Zhu Tan also felt warm.

The two hugged each other like this, and they didn't know how long it had been, but finally, the barrier opened.

Zhu Youjian suddenly realized one thing, that is, there were two layers of barriers, one of which was purple, which was set up by Liu Changqing.

Moreover, there was a faint aura that seemed to have been created by him.

This surprised Zhu Tan very much.

When did I put up this barrier?
Looking up again, there was nothing in the blue sky except a faint white cloud floating in the air.

Zhu Tan had an intuition that he believed there must be a creator between heaven and earth.

and many more!

It's that person! Zhu Tan was sure that he was living in a book, and someone was writing a book about him.

This should be a projection of the writer's own madness, and he accidentally set up this barrier. In a sense, this barrier is Zhu Youjian's heart.

The reason why Queen Zhou was able to get close and pass through the barrier was because only Queen Zhou could win Zhu Youjian's heart.

This is a very clever means to show that only Queen Zhou can enter Zhu Youjian's inner world.

……

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

The thunderous cheers coming from afar brought Zhu Youjian back to his senses.

He pulled Queen Zhou out slowly, and the Jinyiwei people also came forward to help!
……

During this period, Zhu Youjian had a good sleep and had a good time with Queen Zhou.

The longer he could survive, the more Zhu Youjian would feel that there was nothing to desire in the world, and that what mattered most was what made people happy.

Joy, physical and mental pleasure, is the most immediate pleasure.

Moreover, he and Queen Zhou already had a deep relationship, and their spirits had merged into one, so they had such feelings.

Happiness made him forget everything, whether it was family matters or national matters, they had nothing to do with him. Zhu Youjian finally forgot his sadness and felt an unprecedented sense of relief.

Queen Zhou would smile every time, and this was also her happiest moment. She held Zhu Youjian's hand like a fool. She knew very well that Zhu Youjian was not from the Ming Dynasty, so she asked Zhu Youjian for her real name.

Zhu Youjian subconsciously said, Zhu Tan.

Queen Zhou said to herself, "Zhu Tan, this name is very interesting. Should I call you 'Shu'?"

"Your Majesty, didn't you tell me that I am your equal and not your subject? I have figured it out these days. I hope to call you Shu in private, so that we can be equals."

Zhu Youjian responded.

In the imperial garden of Kunning Palace, Empress Zhou and Zhu Youjian held hands, swung on the swings together, and admired the peach blossoms on the ground.

……

Zhu Youjian has been thinking about this problem these days.

During these months, he recalled everything he had experienced and felt very confused.

When Zhu Youjian thought of these messy things, he felt a splitting headache. Fortunately, with Empress Zhou by his side, he finally slept well that night.

Whether before going to bed or in the early morning, Zhu Youjian was recalling everything that had happened.

He changed from an ordinary, decadent author to a self-abandoned otaku. When the end of the world came, he was forced to join a self-defense force. In the 618th Force, he was a snake, but in the fight with his companions, he gradually realized the true meaning of life.

Just from this point, Zhu Tan had a very complicated feeling. There were too many factors, too many things that were unreasonable and too absurd. What made him speechless was that he could return to this world in such a short time.

That's right! When Zhu Youjian first came to this world, his memory had not yet recovered. It was only then that he suddenly remembered that he was not the only one who was teleported here.

He recalled that dim evening, in the ruins and wet open space, the captain walked up to Zhu Tan with a smile and made a joke to him:
"Hey, isn't this our Tree Grandpa?"

Zhu Tan rolled his eyes at him, showing disdain for his captain.

That’s right, Zhu Tan remembered the captain’s experience. At the beginning, the captain said that he was the leader of the rebels, but his army was dispersed, so he believed that everyone should unite to fight against those damn aliens.

Everyone else believed it, except Zhu Tan, because he sensed something was wrong. This captain did not look like a commander at all. When he was in Team 618, he did not fight those alien creatures. He just looked for food everywhere, including food from those who were killed.

As for that kid, there is no need to mention him!

No matter what, the captain was trying to please Zhu Tan. He flattered Zhu Tan desperately:
"Have you heard? It turns out there is something really amazing on Earth, and that is something we Chinese have created - a time traveler!"

Zhu Tan waved his hand: "Don't try to trick me! Could it be that this guy is already dead, but he can still be alive? What's in your wooden head?"

The captain smiled and said, "Of course, this is what the federal army asked us to protect!"

Zhu Tan: “…”

On that occasion, the 618th Division was given a task by their superiors, asking them and other teams to go to City A to protect a piece of equipment.

Zhu Tan initially thought this was a very powerful weapon, but when he saw the smile on the captain's face, Zhu Tan knew that it was a time-travel machine.

At this moment, Zhu Tan looked at the captain in shock: "How did you know this? This is a big secret. Do you have such a big face?"

"I want you to try!"

Zhu Tan shook his head: "Don't be ridiculous, do you think I can do it?"

The captain chuckled, stretched out a hand, put it in front of Zhu Tan's eyes, and said, "Hey, if you don't believe me, I can tell you with my gossip. Look, this is a straight line. Guess what's going on?"

Without waiting for Zhu Tan to speak, the captain said with a smile: "Hahaha, that means you are the one! You are our savior!"

"Isn't this the American Gulliver?"

Zhu Tan and Gulliver are both heroes promoted by the US Self-Defense Forces. He claims to be the savior in the Bible and the incarnation of Jesus. Anyone with a little bit of common sense would think he is a liar.

Savior? There is no savior in this damn world!

The captain smiled flatteringly and said, "Why? Only the United States can save us, but we in China cannot! You! You are our savior!"

"Come on!" Liu Yi said angrily. "Oh! You said it yourself, you made it up, and I saw it too. How come it's not us Chinese who are coming to save us, but the Americans?"

Zhu Tan: “…”

……

Zhu Tan snorted, showing no interest in this at all. He was not sure whether what Long Wenjian said was true or false. In any case, it had nothing to do with him.

"Don't give me that! I just want to live a happy life in this apocalypse! Isn't that what you said? This is the apocalypse, being able to survive is a good thing!"

After saying that, Zhu Tan was about to leave, but the captain still grabbed him and said with a flattering smile:

"It is said that this thing can be used to save the world, but if you want to become a time traveler, you must have sufficient psychological qualities. I gave you a physical examination before, and you are such a person. Are you suitable?"

Zhu Tan frowned and stared at his captain with some confusion.

"What? Why don't you leave? You're a psychopath too, why don't you give it a try?"

Zhu Tan choked, "Are you crazy?
"You are the real psychopath, we are not from the same world!"

the captain said.

Zhu Tan is a very sensitive person. More than three months ago, Zhu Tan was diagnosed by a doctor as a person who is easily infected. Zhu Tan is easily infected.

That time, the team leader teased Zhu Tan:
"Oh, am I crazy? Are you crazy!

……

Zhu Tan can still recall all the details, and he can still clearly recall the scene at that time.

Since then, they have been guarding this time-space shuttle device. Countless people have died along the way. They went from the north of China to the south, and then to the north. Finally, under the protection of the leader, they were teleported into this instrument.

It would be interesting if this could be turned into a book, but the specific process is quite cumbersome.

If it were modified, it would probably become a shocking work.

……

Zhu Tan thought about it and decided that he didn’t care too much about the past. He cared more about everything he had experienced after returning to this world.

He has experienced so many things since he came into this world.

It may be because he did not know much about the Ming Dynasty, or because this period of history is only a written record, so there are still some differences from the real Ming Dynasty.

It is also possible that someone else came to this world first, or it could be some lousy author who can't write history.

It is precisely because of this that there are so many chaos here. Just as they said, every word they said cannot explain the authenticity of that era.

Coupled with his strange headache, he began to doubt the world he lived in.

……

Putting aside his doubts, Zhu Youjian tossed and turned in his bed, unable to fall asleep.

Queen Zhou listened to Zhu Tan's sigh, looked at Zhu Youjian with a frown on his face, and hugged Chen Zhu Youjian in her arms:
"What's wrong, Lao Shu? Could it be that I am lying?"

Zhu Youjian reached out and stroked Empress Zhou's face. It was warm and real, making it hard for Zhu Tan to believe that all this was true.

Queen Zhou came over, kissed Zhu Youjian on the cheek, and gave him a shy smile.

But Zhu Youjian confirmed this, which made him even more certain.

The most important thing is that this matter is too messy. On the surface, it seems bright, but whether it is Wei Zhongxian, the Donglin Party, the Wang Gongchang case, Mo Yuan, Liu Changqing, or everything he wants to do in the Ming Dynasty, it all makes people feel incredible.

There is no plan and no rules at all.

After all, he was a man who changed with the wind, and he didn't care much about this matter.

Zhu Tan smiled.

"I don't know either. If there is really someone in this world writing to me, please use a normal plot to express my thoughts."

"What's up with the style of Shuangwen? Don't you understand?"

"It starts with bullying, then beating, then showing off, then suppression, then humiliation, then ridicule, then crushing, then huge pressure, then his opponent, he is surrounded by beautiful women, and then climax! Give them a loud slap in the face!"

"Only this kind of plot twists can benefit people! If your work can satisfy readers and audiences, then my life will be much easier!"

At this point, Zhu Tan sighed.

"Oh! Maybe all this is just my illusion, maybe it doesn't exist at all! I don't think it's possible. Life is not an interesting thing, nor is it a story. It's all a mess."

At this point, Zhu Tan sighed and said decisively:
"If you are really here, if you continue like this, I will make you pay the price!"

……

After a whole night of thinking, Zhu Tan didn’t know how to deal with this matter, but he was still very happy!
My life was a mess before, but now I have finally figured it out, and I feel a lot more relaxed.

Zhu Youjian began to think about his next move. He had to leave. He couldn't stay in the Forbidden City forever!
He had to find the person who lived in the fairyland first, and then try to figure out what happened in the Ming Dynasty. He had to start from the bottom, not work his way up, and he also needed to practice, which would give him enough time to be fully prepared for the agreement in three years.

Zhu Youjian did not do anything foolish in the following week. He just served as the emperor for a period of time. He retired from court when it was time to attend court, did what he should do, was busy when he should be busy, did what he should do, did what he should do, and accompanied his wife to enjoy this happy night.

Just like before, he would go to work every day, then come home and prepare dinner. It was about 3 o'clock in the afternoon. He always followed his plan.

In this way, a week passed and Zhu Youjian finally came up with some plans.

But at this moment, Empress Zhang asked the emperor for permission.

Zhu Youjian was also summoned to the Cining Palace at this time. Empress Zhang looked serious and her expression was a little dull.

Empress Zhang added:
"Your Majesty, you must naturally choose a suitable candidate to continue my bloodline."

Zhu Youjian looked at Empress Zhang with a look of surprise on his face. Empress Zhang looked very serious, and he just said something very ordinary.

"Your Majesty, forgive me for being blunt, but you are the ruler of a country, and you must have a harem!"

Well, he thought about it, the selection of women in the Ming Dynasty was still very standard. Zhu Yuanzhang once ordered that women should be selected from the common people, and the age of women must be under thirteen years old. Moreover, the large-scale selection of the Ming Palace also had standards. If you want to enter the palace and become a concubine, you have to go through a period of testing. (End of this chapter)
