Daming: I became Zhu Yuanzhang's eldest son

Since Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty, he has been working hard to create a prosperous and prosperous world.

It is now the 12th year of Hongwu, and Zhu Yuanzhang has been on the throne for a long time, but there are still disaster victims in the suburbs of Beijing, which makes it difficult for him to relax his brows.

In the past, there was Zhu Tao's act of buying charity for the king, and later there was a policy of using work for relief. This really relieved Zhu Yuanzhang's worries about the future and made him extremely excited.

When he is in a good mood, his appetite will naturally increase. After talking about these serious matters, he suddenly remembered the boiled cabbage that Zhu Tao mentioned just now.

So, he asked very curiously.

"Tao'er, when we came in just now, you said you would eat boiled cabbage today. Could it be that you, the victims of the disaster, have spent all their money and can only eat cabbage?"

Zhu Di was also beside him, thinking helplessly that every time he came to Zhu Tao's Zhuangzi, he would be able to eat a big meal and eat new and unique dishes, which made him linger and forget to return.

In all fairness, no matter whether it is the food in his Yanwang Mansion, the Guoshang Department, or even the food in the imperial dining room in the palace, it is not as good as the meat skewers and fish-flavored pork shreds here.

However, he was also puzzled about what the boiled cabbage that he was going to eat today was, so he asked.

"Cousin, what kind of dish is this boiled cabbage? Tell us about it, so we can learn a lot!"

Seeing the doubts on the faces of his father and cousin, Zhu Tao could also understand. After all, this dish is a famous dish in later generations, and it can show his face at the state banquet.

However, the production process of this dish is too complicated, and it may take a long time to talk about it, and naturally it is not clear to explain a sentence.

Zhu Tao put it off and said, "Father, fourth cousin, after you have tasted this dish in a while, you will know whether it is delicious or not."

Soon, the dishes and skewers came up one after another. In addition to the usual mapo tofu and shredded fish-flavored pork, there was indeed a dish of boiled cabbage.

Sure enough, there were a few small cabbages lying in the clear soup, which seemed nothing special, but Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but tasted it.

After just one bite, he began to close his eyes and began to taste the taste directly. What is going on? Cabbage can also produce such a taste.

Zhu Di also picked up a chopstick, and was also overwhelmed by the taste, but he couldn't help but say: "Cousin, you are amazing, it's a pity that you made such an ordinary cabbage taste like this , Brother Taiping is out on errands, so he can't taste such a delicacy."

At this time, Zhu Tao introduced: "Father, fourth cousin, although this dish is called boiled cabbage, it is not boiled cabbage. There is a lot of knowledge in it."

As he said that, he explained the recipe of this dish, how to choose chicken and ham, mushrooms and ingredients, how to make broth, how to remove impurities, and so on.

As a result, Zhu Yuanzhang said directly: "Hey, you don't need to be so detailed. We don't need to know the old hen to eat an egg. If you want to eat it later, you can come to Tao'er to eat it."

Zhu Di was taking a sip of the soup, and was choking for a moment, but after thinking about it carefully, there is nothing wrong with saying this, as it is only right and proper for my father to eat his son.

After the meal, Zhu Yuanzhang was chewing popcorn, and suddenly thought of something, he said: "Tao'er, Dad suddenly remembered something, you are old and not young, and it is time to get married."

Zhu Tao was a little dazed for a while, but he was quite relieved that his father cared about him so much, so he said.

"The child is still young, and he hasn't reached the crown yet. Don't worry about this matter for now, let's talk about it later."

But Zhu Yuanzhang said: "I asked Old Tang in private, saying that there is a girl named Wan'er that you like very much. How about it? It just so happens that business is not too busy recently. Your fourth cousin and I will go there personally and go to the door. Help you propose marriage, fourth child, what do you think?"

Seeing that his father has said so much, this is not asking for opinions, it is no different from decree, Zhu Di naturally knows how to answer, so he hurriedly said.

"What uncle said is that my nephew also thinks that he should settle the marriage for his cousin as soon as possible. Brother Tao has already achieved success in his career, and now it's time to start a family."

Hearing Zhu Di's words, Zhu Yuanzhang stroked his beard with a smile, and said with a smile: "Okay, that's what it means. Although our family is just a businessman, the business is big, so we can't wrong that girl Wan'er."

Originally thought that Zhu Tao would be very happy, so he agreed in a hurry, but who would have thought that Zhu Tao waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Father, I'm not trying to shirk. In fact, I'm worried that this matter is too hasty, and it may not be a good thing."

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little confused. Is it a problem that he cares about his son's marriage, but he wants to listen to the boy's reasons, so he continued to persuade.

"Tao'er, your mother and I have discussed this matter in the past few days. We both think that you can get married as soon as possible. When we settle down, we will have a grandson as soon as possible. You don't need to say more."

However, Zhu Tao still said: "Father, it's not that the boy is unfilial, nor is it that the boy deliberately wants to disobey you. I think that although Wan'er and I have a good impression of each other, we still need to get to know each other better. We can't be too reckless. Otherwise, the marriage will be fast, and the divorce may not be fast. I am fine as a man, but it is a woman's honor, so we must be cautious. When I feel that the time is right, I will naturally ask my father to help me propose a marriage."

Having said all this, Zhu Yuanzhang also understood Zhu Tao's intentions, so he no longer insisted on his own ideas, he said.

"Okay, he is indeed our son. Not only is he courageous in handling affairs, but he is also a good man who knows how to be compassionate and responsible, and that girl Wan'er is lucky. Okay, let's put this matter aside for now. When you think about it, Talk to dad again."

Zhu Di was more interested in Zhu Tao's next plan, so he asked, "Cousin, do you have any plans for the future? If you need my help, just ask."

In fact, even if Zhu Di didn't mention it, Zhu Tao couldn't help but say that the soldiers that Zhu Di brought last time, although they were dressed as workers, were all fierce, smart and capable, which Zhu Tao liked very much.

Therefore, since Zhu Di took the initiative to bring it up this time, Zhu Tao was not polite, and said, "Sitang brother, I really have something to trouble you here, isn't it that I want to take over those Huangzhuang fields recently?" , By the way, I want to build some houses, the craftsmen you found last time are very capable, please help me recruit another batch, as for the wages, it is negotiable."
