First Prince of Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 33 Bamboo basket fetching water

  Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at his son on his shoulder, and reached out to stroke his hair.

   "Biao'er, we didn't say anything, but Li Shanchang built momentum for himself. He is the first hero in the founding of the country and the best choice for the prime minister of the new dynasty."

   "He has decided everything, so what's the point of being the emperor?"

  Remember, for the king's name and utensils, rewards and punishments must never be faked with human hands!

  Zhu Biao nodded: "My child understands."

  Zhu Yuanzhang still wanted to teach his son something, when he saw Song Lian, who was already in his fifties, walking quickly.

   "Go and help your husband."

  Zhu Biao has already rushed over, and stretched out his hand to support Song Lian, "Sir, you are already your age, why should you run so fast?"

   Arriving in front of Zhu Yuanzhang, Song Lian pulled out his hand and straightened his sleeves before saluting.

  Zhu Yuanzhang showed helplessness, but because Song Lian had taught Zhu Biao for so many years, he could only hold him back.

   "Song Lian, what's the matter with you running over in such a hurry?"

"Back to the King of Wu, I came here to ask you to resign. Your son Conghui has learned everything about me these years. Since there is nothing to teach you, how dare you take the title of master of your son? I have been home for many years, and I want to go back to my hometown to have a look.”

  Zhu Yuanzhang hurriedly said: "Song Lian, you have taught the son very well these years! We can rest assured that you have taught the son to you, but if you are not satisfied with Biaoer, just say it, and we will teach him for you."

   Zhu Biao knew that Song Lian really wanted to go home, but as a student, how could he just let the teacher go.

  Zhu Biao also interjected, "But what did the student do wrong that made the teacher abandon me, and if there are mistakes, please punish me."

  Song Lian waved his hand and said, "You are the student I am most satisfied with. You are impeccable in terms of talent, diligence and character! It's just that I am getting old and want to go back to my hometown. I hope King Wu and His Royal Highness will be considerate of the veterans."

   After being polite for a while, Zhu Biao said to Zhu Yuanzhang: "Father, it seems that the husband is determined to go, so why don't you let him go home."

  Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it for the sake of his son: "Well, Song Lian, let me give you a year's vacation and let you go back to your hometown to stay enough. When you come back, there are our other sons. You also look at the area."

  Song Lian originally thought that it would be good if he could take a two-month leave, but fortunately, he deliberately chose the eldest son to resign when he came back.

  The interest of the father and son was interrupted, and Zhu Yuanzhang ordered to go back home.

   Zhu Biao arranged for the guards to take his husband back, and then followed Zhu Yuanzhang back to Wu Wangfu.

   "Father, the son will change his clothes first, and then go to see his mother."

  After Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, Zhu Biao went back to the little room where he had been away for a long time.

  Young master is back!

  Yun Jin led them over to welcome them, "You are back, the meals arranged by Liu Jin are cold, and the slave has already asked him to order the kitchen to make them again.

  Zhu Biao looked at them and was also happy: "I went to the Xingong with my father and walked around."

  Zhu Biao took a hot bath first, and soaking in the bucket really relieved fatigue. After a while, he added some medicinal materials to the water, as well as the medicine powder prepared by the doctor in the house. It should be able to strengthen his body.

  Yun Jin helped him wash his hair, and didn't know what to put on it. Zhu Biao was already exhausted, and he even walked around the Xingong with Lao Zhu before closing his eyes.

  I don't know who hasn't fallen asleep, and I don't know how long it has been. I get up in a daze and put on new clothes. I feel that the inner thighs are still cool. They must have applied new medicine.

  Until awakened by the smell of food, Liu Jin moved the table in front of his bed. There were more than ten dishes on it. The staple food was rice and sesame seed cakes.

   It's all what he likes to eat, and Nuan Yu knelt behind him, slowly wiping her half-dry hair with a towel.

  Zhu Biao was also hungry, and he was only able to recover after eating half full. Liu Jin stepped forward and told the news inside and outside the house when he was away recently.

   In fact, it’s nothing, it’s nothing more than the generals fighting for merit, and they all want to get a high title for themselves.

   Seeing that Zhu Biao was fine, Nuan Yu asked curiously: "My lord, have you gone to see the East Palace? Is it really nice? Is it big?

  Zhu Biao picked up pieces of chicken and turned around and stuffed them into Nuanyu's mouth: "You're the only one who talks too much! Why do you think we will definitely be able to live in the East Palace?"

"Who else can be the prince except the son! The rest of the sons are very naughty. They like to play horseback riding and fighting, but they don't want to study. They are often beaten by the prince. How can they compare with the prince, and the prince is the eldest son of the prince. It is also the son of the world!"

  Looking at Nuan Yu who is even more proud than him, Zhu Biao is actually quite happy, he can't be so presumptuous to see this little girl's little presumptuousness is not bad!

  Besides, Nuanyu is a cat, so she can blow up hair around him, and she doesn't even say a word when she goes out of the yard, and she listens to Yunjin in everything.

   Liu Jin also said from the side: "Yes, not to mention inside the mansion, even passers-by outside know your status."

  Zhu Biao glanced at the others, all of whom looked honored, and had no doubt that he could become the prince.

  He suddenly understood why a smart person like Li Shanchang looked a little swollen recently.

  Zhu Biao himself felt a little flustered by the admiration of a few people in this small room.

   What's more, Li Shanchang, who is in charge of government affairs and the leader of the Huaixi Party, is afraid that he will be praised by hundreds of people every day in his office.

  Zhu Biao shook his head. Given Li Shanchang's current state, I'm afraid he won't be able to get the first meritorious service in founding the country.

  If he comes forward now and says that the first meritorious service to the founding of the country should be someone else, whether it is Xu Da or Chang Yuchun, he can get rid of Lao Zhu's stare.

  But now Li Shanchang is staring at the position of prime minister, and he does not hesitate to build momentum to let himself get the position of one person below one person and above ten thousand people. He has grown too much.

   I was afraid that in the end, the bamboo basket would be empty and I would get nothing.
