The Ming Dynasty: Starting with the Somersault Cloud, Old Zhu was so envious he cried!

"Is it really possible to have any wish?"

A ruler's word is his bond!

"Then give me three thousand soldiers, I want to go into battle and kill the enemy!"

"Okay... pfft!"

Old Zhu had barely uttered two words when Empress Ma slapped him on the back.

Caught off guard, he spat out a mouthful of hot tea.

"Cough cough." Old Zhu wiped his mouth, then angrily turned his head, glaring at Ma Xiuying like a stubborn mule. "Sister, why did you hit us for no reason?"

Seeing that he was even being reasonable, Ma Xiuying immediately retorted, "You have the nerve to ask me? You should listen carefully to what your son just said about his wish!"

"He just wants three thousand... wait a minute." Zhu Yuanzhang's voice suddenly stopped, and after a while, he stiffly turned his head and looked at the six-year-old child in front of him, who was less than a meter tall, with a look of astonishment.

"Sixth Brother, what did you just say you wanted to do?"

"I said I wanted to lead troops into battle, just like my fourth brother, to fight the enemy and protect our country."

The room fell silent instantly upon hearing this.

Everyone was stunned by Zhu Ming's shocking statement.

Old Zhu, in particular, felt his eyelids twitching wildly, and his heart was enveloped by a huge sense of absurdity.

You are a six-year-old child who is less than one meter tall and weighs less than forty kilograms.

He immediately said, "I need three thousand soldiers."

Do you know what soldiers and horses are? You want one!

"Go away, kid, go play somewhere else." Zhu Yuanzhang took the little guy's nonsense and refused without thinking, "Do you know what a battlefield is? You're not even as tall as someone's thigh, what kind of enemy are you going to kill? Quickly find another wish."

Even in Lao Zhu's mind, a picture could appear.

The two armies faced each other. The enemy generals were all two meters tall and weighed over three hundred kilograms. They were clad in heavy armor and carried weapons such as the Green Dragon Crescent Blade and the Eighteen-Foot Serpent Spear.

Our commander is less than a meter tall and extremely frail. He needs to be carried to mount his horse. He has a pacifier in his mouth and always says, "I'm going to take on three of them!"

No, do you think you're Lu Bu reincarnated?

That's not right either. When Lü Bu was six years old, he didn't seem to be this powerful.

Upon hearing that Lao Zhu looked down on him, Zhu Ming immediately expressed his displeasure.

"You just promised me that you could grant any wish, and you even said you never broke your word. I never expected you to be such a big liar!"

A child's voice made Old Zhu extremely embarrassed; he hadn't expected to be proven wrong so quickly.

Fortunately, Empress Ma came to his rescue in time.

She gently placed her hand on Zhu Ming's shoulder and asked in a tender tone, "Ming'er, tell your mother why you want to lead troops into battle? And who taught you these things?"

"It's Fourth Brother. He said that as a man, one should gallop across the battlefield, make great achievements, and that this is the romance of men!" Zhu Ming was caught off guard and betrayed his fourth brother completely.

Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look at Zhu Di.

Everyone else was gloating.

Only Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma looked at him with a hint of danger in their eyes.

Good heavens, it was you all along!

I said that since I've lived in the palace since I was little, how come I suddenly want to lead troops into battle? It turns out it was all taught by you, kid.

Zhu Di was happily watching the drama unfold, especially when he saw his father looking embarrassed by his sixth brother's retort, he couldn't help but chuckle to himself.

Dad, so this is what happens to you now!

The next second, while they were eating, they ended up eating their own head.

Feeling the oppressive gazes of his father and mother, Zhu Di trembled with fear, a huge sense of danger rising in his mind!

"Um, please give your son a chance to explain!" Zhu Di felt he could still salvage the situation.

Unfortunately, nobody paid any attention to him.

Zhu Di is dead!

……

After some "friendly" negotiations.

Old Zhu eventually agreed to Zhu Ming's request, but the effect was greatly diminished.

For example, Zhu Ming wanted to go into battle and kill the enemy.

Don't even think about it; Empress Ma would never agree to it.

However, we can still grant Zhu Ming's request for troops, but the number must be strictly limited.

After all, even ordinary princes only receive a small number of people when they are enfeoffed.

After some thought, Old Zhu

The decision to transfer 800 men from the Imperial Guard to serve as Zhu Ming's personal guard was treated like playing house with children.

As for Zhu Ming, eight hundred it is.

We'll wait until he pulls out something good from the system.

Then he will lead eight hundred personal guards and fight his way to the moon!

At this moment, Old Zhu turned to look at Empress Ma, his tone somewhat ingratiating, and said, "Sister, we've given you the gifts, can we start eating now?"

Empress Ma couldn't help but chuckle at Old Zhu's pitiful expression. She then forced a smile and said, "Alright, alright, whatever you say. But the food looks a bit cold. Perhaps I could reheat it before you eat?"

"This back and forth will take up a lot of time." Old Zhu quickly waved his hand and said, "No need for that trouble. Besides, when we were fighting, we never ate hot food. Let's just leave it like this!"

The family dinner officially began as soon as the words were spoken.

……

A minor incident occurred at the dinner table.

Because Zhu Ming is quite young and short, his short arms and legs make it difficult for him to reach other dishes while eating.

So Empress Ma picked him up and placed him on her lap. He didn't even need to ask what he wanted to eat; she just glanced at him and then picked up the food herself to feed him.

This heartwarming scene made Zhu Ming's five older brothers extremely envious.

They never received such treatment when they were children.

Sure enough, only the sixth son was the Queen Mother's biological son, while the others were just strangers with blood ties.

A wave of sorrow washed over them.

Not to mention them, even Old Zhu felt a little jealous when he saw this scene.

The girl has never fed him!

This brat is being treated better than Old Zhu!

After the family dinner ended,

Everyone said their goodbyes and left one after another.

After seeing off the last person, Empress Ma returned to the palace alone.

As soon as she entered, she saw Zhu Ming sitting obediently on the stool, his hands supporting his chin, his little head nodding downwards uncontrollably.

Even though he was so sleepy he could barely keep his eyes open, Zhu Ming still refused to go to sleep; he was waiting for someone.

"Ming'er, you're so sleepy, why won't you go to sleep?" Empress Ma quickly stepped forward, picked up Zhu Ming, and held him in her arms, gently patting him with her hands.

In the past, as long as Empress Ma held him like this and coaxed him with a few words, Zhu Ming would fall asleep quickly.

But this time,

He broke free from Empress Ma's embrace.

"What's wrong, Ming'er? Are you feeling unwell somewhere?" Empress Ma asked with concern.

Zhu Ming shook his head: "No, Mother, I have a gift for you!"

"A gift for me?" Empress Ma was slightly taken aback.

Zhu Ming raised her little face, her soft voice earnest and sincere: "Today is my birthday, but it's also the day my mother suffered, so I prepared a gift for you too!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Empress Ma trembled violently, and her eyes instantly reddened.

She had eight children in her lifetime, and she attended the birthday celebrations of each of them and prepared gifts for them all.

But no one ever gave her a gift in return.

No one had ever said such a hurtful thing to her.

"My good child, having you as my child in this life is the greatest blessing for your mother."

Fortunately, Zhu Ming's five older brothers passed away early.

Otherwise, seeing this scene,

It is absolutely necessary to break through the defenses collectively.

Brother, what you're doing is putting us in a difficult position!
