First Prince of Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 366 Straight to Cangyang

  Liu Ying now also understands that it doesn't make any difference to him whether the emperor wants Liu Chun's life or the prince wants Liu Chun's life, and the destiny cannot be violated.

After that, the two of them didn't have much to say. Liu Ying resigned and left, and Zhu Biao went to his father's side. Anyone who dares to be good at specialization must be sent to the Holy Majesty for review.

After Zhu Biao entered, he saw Lao Zhu wearing cool clothes, sitting on a chair digging ice watermelon to eat, and there was a small plate of official documents on the desk. , my son thinks it's almost the same, it's time to go to Cangyang to end this matter."

  Zhu Yuanzhang nodded when he heard the words: "Sit down, have you eaten iced watermelon?"

Zhu Biao nodded with a smile, sat down on the exclusive small chair on the side of the book case, took a few memorials, looked at the signature and said: "Li Shanchang has written several memorials and asked to come here to see him, my father Aren't you ready to meet?"

  Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head: "The old boy takes a concubine twice every three days, and lives more comfortably than us. If there is anything good to see, let's talk about it if we pass by Linhao."

   Li Shanchun returned to his hometown after retiring, and he was also in Fengyang Mansion, but Zhu Yuanzhang had already ordered that, except for the prefect of Fengyang and Marquis Yihui, officials from all over Fengyang should not come to harass him without an order.

  Although Li Shanchang is no longer the prime minister, he still has vacancies such as the prince grand teacher and doctor Zuo Zhuguo Guanglu.

Zhu Biao shook his head when he heard that, how good Li Shanchang lived after retirement, it has been spread all over the court and the public. I heard that the dream of many civil servants is to be like Li Xiang, to be an extremely personable minister, and then retire safely and return home to be raised. .

Zhu Biao flipped through it twice and saw the memorial signed by Qian Tang, the magistrate of Huai'an. Without opening it, he could guess that Old Master Qian must have strongly demanded that Liu Chun be killed to rectify the court law, and the words might not be very pleasant, but the court After all, it is a good thing to have admonishing ministers.

Most of the rest of the official letters and memorials were related to the northern military situation. What was interesting was the news from Chang Yuchun that Ye Sudieer, who personally hanged Tugusi Timur with a bowstring, suddenly claimed to be the third Tugusi Timur. The son is the blood of Kublai Khan, the ancestor of the Yuan Dynasty. He is the orthodox of the Yuan Dynasty. Now he conforms to the will of Changshengtian and establishes himself as Zhuoli Ketuhan.

It seems that Su Dier also felt the backlash from Kublai Khan's princes. Now, in order to stabilize the overall situation, he doesn't even want his own skin. It's just that it's just drinking doves to quench his thirst. , but will lose the support of other princes.

The current situation in the grassland must be very interesting. Zhu Biaoyuan felt the turbulent waves thousands of miles away. Zhu Yuanzhang said suddenly: "Did you see that Ye Sudieer didn't give himself the title of emperor of the Yuan Dynasty, nor did he use the year name. I heard that They didn’t bring the temple name when offering sacrifices.”

  Zhu Biao’s eyes lit up and he said: “When he was desinicizing, downplaying the traces of the Yuan Dynasty, and trying to turn Mongolia back into Genghis Khan, there was no emperor, only Khan.”

After eating half a sweet potato, Zhu Yuanzhang burped comfortably, patted his stomach and said: "Let's go to Huhua, and they go to Sinicization, which is quite interesting, but their difficulty is much greater than ours. Sudie'er is too quick-tempered and too rough-handed, sooner or later he will die for no apparent reason."

Zhu Biao was stunned. At present, this trend is not obvious. No matter how hard he is, he is still fast. The minimum power is still there. Zhu Biao lowered his head and flipped through several reports before seeing the pro-military captain. A secret report from the government.

It turned out that Ye Sudieer forced most of the original Tugusi Timur tribe to move to the Wala area of ​​Western Mongolia, and the grasslands and pastures allocated were all lands with insufficient water and grass. This was a great blow to the herdsmen. , is an insult.

After reading it, Zhu Biao also felt the suppressed contradictions. It is reasonable that there is nothing wrong with the winner re-dividing the interests, but it is too eager. The Mongolian ministries are not lambs to be slaughtered. Teeth biting.

Zhu Yuanzhang said in a meaningful speech: "This is an example of power not belonging to oneself. Ye Sudie'er relied on Wala to raise troops. Although he is the main one, the various tribes of Wala are not entirely his subordinates. The difference between the two The relationship between them is more about mutual cooperation and what they need.”

  Zhu Biao nodded when he heard the words, and Ye Sudieer was forced to divide the interests in advance this time. Without the full support of Oala, he would not be able to withstand Kublai Khan's crazy counterattack.

  The situation in Mongolia is becoming increasingly clear. Although Daming is forced to take over this time, because of their more serious internal conflicts, the initiative is still in Daming's hands. After Tianbaonu and Li Wenzhong entered Mongolia, they should be able to win over many tribes seeking stability.

  Fengyang saw the same thing, and Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't stay still anymore. Early the next morning, the emperor's camp, which had stayed for a long time, finally broke out, and the huge guard of honor went straight to Cangyang.

  The people of Fengyang also got the news that Yihuihou Liu Ying and His Highness the Crown Prince wanted to punish Liu Chun severely, and the court also said that many officials asked to punish Liu Chun, and I am afraid that he would have no way out.

  After leaving Fengyang, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered the disbandment of most of the honor guards and asked them to return to Beijing by themselves, leaving only the accompanying guards. After that, the marching speed was more than a little faster, and they arrived in Cangyang half a month later.

During the period, the father and son met officials from several prefectures, and also met two waves of inspecting imperial envoys. The only result was that Zhu Yuanzhang ordered the beheading of more than a hundred officials, and there were even more officials and criminal families who were sent to Fengyang to serve as hard labor. There are more than four hundred people.

There is nothing to say about the person who was sentenced to death. If you are lucky, you can still have a relative of the same clan to collect the corpse. If you are unlucky, you will implicate your relatives. It is said that corrupt officials are also masters of reading, and there is literary spirit in their blood.

In fact, Zhu Biao was also very interested in those corpses. Chinese medicine is very good, but the development and specialization are different, and he is not proficient in the actual human body structure. Zhu Biao asked the imperial physicians in the palace a few years ago, and none of them had experience in operating on people. , human organs are very abstract to them.

   On the contrary, the government officials are quite aware of this, but there are also great limitations. After all, the methods of operation are also very rough. Most of the time, they just dig open the stomach of the dead to see what's inside.

  If it is said that Chinese medicine is based on the physiology of Tibetan phenomena and meridians and acupoints, then the foundation of Western medicine in later generations is based on anatomical physiology and biochemistry. The significance of the general teacher is self-evident.
