First Prince of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 819: Promise

   Those who are too big are the big of the big!

  Although Zhu Xiongying is the undisputed head of the East Palace, he has not yet been canonized as the grandson of the emperor, and he has not been established as the heir of the Daming Jiangshan Sheji from the legal orthodoxy, so he can only be called the grandson of the emperor.

  Xu Yungong's great husband, even when he bowed, he was on the same side as others, not to mention that in the eyes of a child, Xiongying was momentarily speechless and could only turn his head to look at his father.

  No one would expect much from a child who just knew how to run and jump. Xu Da stroked his long beard and happily looked at the little grandson in front of him, feeling that he couldn't get enough of it.

   But before he had even glanced at him, a pair of long arms carried the emperor away. Xu Da frowned suddenly, and looked up to see that it was the triumphant Kaiping Wang Chang Yuchun.

   "Ah!" Xiongying was already very nervous surrounded by a group of strangers, and when he was suddenly picked up, he threw his hands and kicked his legs and wanted to break free, but his small arms twisted more than Chang Shiwan.

   "Haha, His Royal Highness, do you still remember who this minister is?"

  Although Chang Yuchun is the emperor's grandson's maternal grandfather, he is a man after all, so it is not easy to go to the East Palace often. It has been more than half a year since the grandparent and grandson met last time.

  Xiongying obviously still has some impressions, but because he has received too many things at the moment, his immature little head obviously can't turn around.

Chang Yuchun happily took off a six-hole purple sand pottery xun from his waist, which he found newly made by famous Jiangnan masters, rarely using old ones. For agile.

  Seeing that the emperor happily took over and started playing, everyone stopped focusing on him. Today, the holy body is healthy and vigorous, and has just added a young son. His Royal Highness is even younger, and will be crowned next year.

   These old fellows have no chance of enjoying the grace of the emperor's grandson, and the key is to coax the emperor and the prince well.

  The crowd surrounded the prince and entered the room. Not long after he was seated, Xu Yungong personally came with the red Shu brocade baby in his arms, and stood in front of the prince, leaning slightly to expose the child's face.

  Baby, clean, plump and tender little face, **** eyes are extremely clear, Zhu Biao reached out and took it gently. In recent years, he has a son and daughter, but he has often hugged the child, so naturally his hands are very familiar.

  Everyone in the hall was full of praise. You must know that apart from the sons and phoenixes in the palace, this should be the first time His Royal Highness has embraced a child of a courtier's family in public. The courtiers are inevitably a little envious.

  Zhu Biao got up and walked to his father-in-law, and Xiongying on his lap temporarily put down Tao Xun and looked at the younger sister, thinking that she was really small, so I better not touch her, otherwise it would be troublesome if she cried.

  Chang Yuchun looked carefully and said with a smile: "What a good boy, he will be as noble and virtuous as a queen in the future."

  Xu Da said modestly: "I don't dare to compare myself to my empress, I only hope to be as diligent and filial as a princess."

  Zhu Biao returned the child to Xu Yungong's hands: "Love since infancy, that is, marriage is good, and it is intended to be a relative of two surnames."

  Beckoned to take the brocade box from Liu Jin, took out the exquisite scarlet phoenix jade pendant inside, and gently put it in the swaddle. "

   "First take this as a covenant. When the children are older, they will be three letters and six appointments. They will welcome them with national rites. They will enter my Zhu family's ancestral temple and be my ancestral wife. Worship the ancestors and extend the land."

  The stone in the Xu family's heart finally fell steadily, and then they gave a big gift of thanks, making the already festive atmosphere even more lively.

Xu Da held Zhu Biao's hand and was crying. Xu Yungong also sent the child to his sister with red eyes. Xu Miaoyun took over the niece with joy on his face: "It's settled? It's so fast, it's really the emperor's grace." .”

  Xu Yungong looked at the jade pendant next to his daughter, and at his younger sister, Chijin Bao Yuchai, and said in silence for a moment: "Your Highness is very kind, and you can only repay it if you die after doing your best."

   After finishing speaking, the whole person returned to his usual steadiness, and told his sister: "I heard from your sister-in-law that Jin Wangfei is not easy to get along with, so don't argue with her, and get closer to the Crown Princess."

   "Yes, Miao Yun knows."

  …

  Xu Miaoyun returned to the back courtyard with her niece in her arms, and was naturally welcomed by the stars. All the wives looked at the jade pendant in their infancy and wished they could **** it away.

Even concubines like Jin Wangfei and Chu Wangfei can only get some fragments, such as a hairpin pendant, not to mention them foreign wives. All condensed in this jade pendant.

  Princess Jin couldn't help but snorted coldly. She had heard for a long time that the Holy Majesty only loved the East Palace, and the rest of the princes couldn't even be considered a foil.

   What a partiality!

What the prince said in the front yard was conveyed vividly, and the wives congratulated him again. Chang Luohua touched the child's face affectionately and said: "It's so young. If you are afraid of making noise, you can just see them."

  Young Madam Li saluted gratefully and said: "My concubine, thank Your Highness for your understanding, it's time to breastfeed and sleep at this time."

  Chang Luohua smiled and said: "We are married, you have to come to the East Palace often, and help me discipline Xiongying."

   "The emperor's grandson is intelligent and sensible, and the crown prince is teaching you. Where is the need for concubines to show their ugliness? It's better to wait for Feng Yi to grow up, and the concubines should ask you to teach them more rules."

The wives around me melted naturally, which made Princess Jin, who usually likes to be admired by the stars, very uncomfortable, but she couldn't get angry again. The Crown Princess is usually not willing to talk to her, but she really needs to be disciplined. If you are a sister-in-law, she will be even more humiliated.

  …

  After lunch, most of them dispersed. In the final analysis, this matter is the dignity of the Zhongshan Palace, and it has nothing to do with them. Just come here to be lively and envious.

  Zhu Biao was discussing with Xu Da and his son in the study, and read the secret letters sent by Mu Ying one by one. Xu Yungong frowned and said: "We will leave for Yunnan tomorrow morning."

  Zhu Biao shook his head slightly and said: "Luchuan is a problem, but it's not that urgent. It probably won't be fought within a year or two. It will take some time for the new king to succeed."

   "Furthermore, the Luchuan Kingdom's ability to traverse the southwest also relies on the help of the surrounding allied countries. If it is with any other small country, it will be fine. They will never dare to intervene in a war with my Ming Dynasty."

  Xu Da read it over and over carefully several times before saying: "How can you allow others to snore on the side of the couch, not to mention that there is already a territorial dispute. It's a pity that Yunnan is initially settled, otherwise this country will be destroyed at this time!"

  The current situation is actually very embarrassing. Both sides are very clear that there must be a war to determine the territorial dispute and the absolute authority among the southwestern countries. These two points must not be compromised.

  Yunnan was established in the early Ming Dynasty, internal ethnic problems still exist, and the rebellion one after another is a clear proof. If the king of Luchuan came here at this time, then the Ming Dynasty would probably have to abandon the guards in various places and concentrate its forces to defend important cities.

   Waiting for Sichuan, Guizhou and even Huguang to send troops to help, the right time, place and people are difficult to occupy. This is not the problem of Mu Ying and others, but the situation that they will face when they expand their territories.

   Fortunately, there are problems within the Luchuan Kingdom itself. The transfer of power is not smooth. In addition, the previous Luchuan King is too outstanding.

   At this time, if Daming has spare power and can contact the surrounding countries of Luchuan, there is a good chance to interrupt the power accumulated by this country, make it turn from prosperity to decline, lose its hegemony in the southwestern countries, and become a vassal state under the rule of Daming.

  It's a pity that Ming Dynasty didn't have the money and food to go to other countries. With the strength of Luchuan Kingdom and such geographical environment, even King Kaiping, the king of Zhongshan who was good at fighting, had to support 200,000 troops to win the battle.

  With 200,000 battle-ready soldiers, how many civilian auxiliary soldiers are needed to open the way to transport food?

  Soldiers, the major events of the country, the place of death and life, the way of survival, must be observed.

   Unless there is a huge difference in military strength, there is a risk of defeat in any battle. After all, Luchuan is no better than Goryeo. Goryeo's internal contradictions have reached the point of irreconcilability.

  Even if Zhu Biao does not intervene, he is destined to change the world, and Luchuan, after all, is a very young country and is in a high-spirited stage.
