Back to Ming Dynasty as Zhu Biao

Chapter 487 Who is your father
Tianyan six years, the end of February.

The spring is cold and the cool breeze is blowing.

Zhu Biao took Empress Chang, prince Zhu Yunchi, prince Zhu Yunye and Zhu Yunyang to Fengyang for a private visit.

In the past six years, Zhu Biao has never left the capital since he ascended the throne. This time, in order to teach the prince by example, and to watch the construction of a factory along the way, Zhu Biao happily embarked on a private visit.

There is old Zhu sitting in the Daming Palace, Zhu Biao is very relieved.

All the way is very smooth, peach blossoms and willows on both sides of the strait.

Zhu Biao glanced at Zhu Yu, and said: "This time I will bring you out together, I hope you will practice more, so that I can entrust you with important tasks in the future."

Zhu Yu nodded: "I am ashamed to think about the wrong things I did before, and I should learn from the fourth brother and avoid his shortcomings."

Hearing this, Zhu Biao's face immediately sank: "The fourth brother has no shortcomings, he lost the Principality of Moscow just by mistake, I believe him."

Zhu Di was tempted by the enemy last year, which caused the loss of the friends of the Muscovy Principality that had just been conquered, but Zhu Biao was not an unreasonable person, and Zhu Di had already vowed to make amends, so he was given a chance.

"Zhu Mi, you younger brothers should also learn from the second and fifth children. Based on the contribution that the fifth child has made to the Daming Hospital, it is right for me to designate him as a prince and divide the land from the Joseon Mansion and the Eastern Wa Mansion to him.

You have to do something, so that I can promote you, and you must not be higher than the sky, otherwise I will not be able to help you. "

When everyone arrived in Fengyang, Lu Zhong and Tang Xian arranged the entourage and moved into the temporary rented house.

There is a palace in Fengyang, but Zhu Biao made up his mind to live in a private house. He didn't plan to travel with much fanfare this time because he knew that he would only see the whitewashed peace.

Therefore, he took Chang and his three older sons, as well as Zhu Yu and the others, to Fengyang for inspection first, and then to Shaanxi.

The most important thing is to train the incompetent Zhu Yu and the prince.

According to Lao Zhu's ancestral precepts, the prince's clan must go to Fengyang every year to learn and practice, and even train soldiers.

Half of the distance from the capital to Fengyang is on foot, and riding is not allowed.

I don't know how the news got away, and the prefect of Fengyang came over, Zhu Biao just sent them back and ordered them not to make any publicity.

When Zhu Biao set foot on Fengyang again, it had been a long time since he first came to Fengyang that year, when he was still a teenager.

Fengyang Mansion has become more and more prosperous in the past few years. The large waterwheels on the banks of the Huaihe River are very eye-catching, and the willow trees on both sides of the official road are also sprouting buds.

The gray-blue cement road cracked a small gap, and the green grass came out.Zhu Biao could still hear the sound of a new type of machine being built in the distance.

Empress Chang took Zhu Yunye and the others to see the people nearby, which was considered a visit.

Zhu Biao stood by the Huaihe River.

Not far away, Tang Xian and Lu Zhong were fishing with fishing rods, their eyes scanning the surroundings.

Now that the Ming Dynasty is peaceful and the treasury is full, the palace in the distance has long been completed, which is basically the same as the layout of the capital.

The cool wind was a bit chilly, whistling against Zhu Biao's cloak, Zhu Yunchi came out from the path near the embankment and rubbed his hands.

The servant next to him immediately called His Highness, and knelt down to wipe the dust off his boots.

Zhu Biao stood and looked down at him: "Here, I will let you wipe it yourself."

This time Zhu Biao is determined to train Zhu Yunchi well.

"Hey, fish, Your Majesty, big fish." Lu Zhong immediately stopped the rod and stepped back. The fish kept struggling with great strength.

"More than every year." Zhu Biao pointed at the fish and gestured with his fingers: "Give it to the prince."

Back in Fengyang Fucheng, Zhu Biao walked into the courtyard, and another official sent a lot of things, Zhu Biao threw the fish to Zhu Yunchi.

"Prince, wash this fish."

Zhu Yunchi took the fish and nodded.Zhu Yunchi also did this when he was in Jiangshan Palace.

Chang Shi and Zhu Yunye, Zhu Yunyang came over and sat in the room drinking tea and warming their hands.

In the past, Empress Chang must have been the first to beg Zhu Biao when she saw Zhu Yunchi suffer.

Did she come this time? When she went to the farmhouse today to give condolences, she couldn't help liking Shen Guifei and Xu Guifei, the two children, when they did things and talked. Looking at Zhu Yunchi, she also understood Zhu Biao's good intentions.

Outside the yard, Zhu Yunchi was squatting there to wash the fish, and the servants in the palace did not step forward after receiving Zhu Biao's instructions.

"There are so many people eating, I have to wash it alone." Zhu Yunchi thought.

Zhu Biao walked out the door and stood behind Zhu Yunchi.

"Prince, what are you talking about?"

"Father."

Zhu Yunchi shivered, and said: "I want to wash the fish, you are not allowed to compete with me, I like to wash it."

After lunch, Zhu Biao lay down to sleep, and Mrs. Chang took Lu Zhong and the others to the place where the elderly and orphans were taken in in Fengyang to send money for rice noodles.

In addition to the common people's parity hospital, last year Zhu Biao let the Mingshang Bureau become a shareholder, and led those medicinal material dealers to establish the Huimin Pharmaceutical Bureau.

Strictly control the price of medicines, so that the common people can reduce the difficulty of medical treatment and the problem of being unable to afford medicines.

Jingshanyuan.

The elderly and children line up to receive rice noodles, and the older ones can receive more rice noodles.

Queen Chang wore coarse clothes and played with several children.

Outside Jingshanyuan is the main street, not far from the alley is a well, and several women are laughing and talking.

Among them, there were two older ones, but when they talked about their husband and wife, everyone laughed.

Empress Chang just came out, and heard a few words about women who should take the initiative and be more charming.

Her ears were red, and she left with Lu Zhong and the others.

But I always think of this voice in my heart.

In the middle of the night, Zhu Yunchi and Empress Chang resigned, but Empress Chang returned quietly.

Under Zhu Biao's surprised eyes, Chang walked to the side of the bed, and seemed to have made a lot of determination to put his arms around Da Mingzi's neck.

He said softly, "Your Majesty, this concubine wants to serve His Majesty tonight."

Zhu Biao probed her forehead with his hand, then touched his own head, wondering what was wrong with her.

Then he nodded numbly: "Sure."

Early the next morning, before Zhu Biao woke up, Zhu Yunye and Zhu Yunyang knocked on the door and asked if they could go out for a stroll.

Of course Zhu Biao disagreed, and told them to wait, and took them there by himself.

After staying in the palace for a long time, the children are very excited, and even Empress Chang showed a different side from the palace.

Holding Zhu Biao's hand, I looked at the rouge and gouache. There is no shortage of these in the palace, but because they are among the people, they have a different feeling.

"If you like it, you can buy it." Zhu Biao picked some to buy and handed them to Empress Chang.

Zhu Biao was afraid that the magistrate of Fengyang deliberately caused the excitement in the city, so he took a few children and Mrs. Chang to a nearby school.

Fengyang Mansion is densely populated with rural areas, the population has skyrocketed in recent years, and the roads are wide and clean.

"The Street Department handled these matters very well." Zhu Biao pointed to the clean road.

After walking a few steps, Zhu Biao saw the village where the stone statue of himself was erected. The dogs and chickens heard each other, and some disabled people were weaving straw sandals at the door.

The retired soldiers from the five major military regions lived here. They used to be locals in Fengyang and returned to their hometowns.

The imperial court gave the land, and there was a monthly pension, and there were holidays.The yamen sent people to condolences and send some necessities.

Zhu Yunchi and Zhu Yunye wandered around with a few Jinyiwei.

The folk customs in the countryside are simple and honest, but Zhu Biao did not stop him.

Zhu Yunchi and Zhu Yunye were squatting and listening to their storytelling at the newspaper stand next to the big locust tree.

When not reading the weekly newspaper, those who read the newspaper will talk about the affairs of the current emperor.

In their hearts, Emperor Tianyan has changed from a prince back then to a great emperor.

The storyteller's saliva splashed everywhere, talking about the Portuguese envoy's visit to Beijing last year.

"Those foreign devils went to Beijing to molest the Ming women. Today, the Holy Majesty learned that the Fengtian Palace yelled, and the world changed color. He wanted to arrest them and put them in prison. The officials in the court objected, and His Majesty yelled again and took these foreigners away." Down."

The storyteller slapped, swallowed and continued:

"A few civil servants were afraid of causing trouble and stopped His Majesty. His Majesty said angrily: "Foreigners committing crimes are deceiving the people of Ming Dynasty, so we can't deal with it. "Your Majesty yelled, and pulled a few foreign devils out and beheaded them. It was really enjoyable. The angry foreigners fought back, and His Majesty sent Wei Guogong to send troops to beat them to pieces."

The villagers applauded.

Zhu Yunchi frowned and retorted: "What foreigners are Portuguese. Also, His Majesty imprisoned a few Portuguese who bullied women and did not kill them. Why did they behead you when they came here?"

Everyone was enjoying themselves, but when they saw someone interrupting, they were dissatisfied.

Several villagers pointed at Zhu Yunchi and said, "You young man, don't talk if you don't understand, just go. Your Majesty is a saint today."

Zhu Yunchi refused to accept, Zhu Yunyang said: "Wei Guogong and his son-in-law Zhao Yunsheng are together."

"Yes, it is obvious that Portugal and the Netherlands intercepted the fleet and trafficked the people of Ming Dynasty, and His Majesty attacked them. Do you know about the naval battle at Liuluowan? His Majesty published it himself."

The villagers next to him were not happy, and these young men questioned the emperor of Ming Dynasty, whose family's brat is this.

"What do you know, and who did you listen to?" the villager asked with a changed face.

"Of course I heard from my parents." Zhu Yunye retorted when the villagers questioned their brothers.

"Who is your father? Where is your father? How can you talk nonsense to the child."

Zhu Yunchi looked at Zhu Biao who was standing by the roadside, and said, "Father."
