Daming: I became Zhu Yuanzhang's eldest son

After Lu Liangqing came down from the palace, Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and said to the courtiers present.

"It seems that everyone has no better way, right? In this way, let's think of a way. Under the reward, there must be a brave man. We will reward generously, so that Tao'er is embarrassed to refuse, so we can only reluctantly."

The officials present were almost so shocked that their eyeballs almost fell out.

What the hell is this called?Being able to manage the Ming currency and treasures is the job of a God of Wealth, and those who are so unwilling must be generously rewarded to accept it reluctantly.

If this hadn't happened to Zhu Tao, it would sound like a Versailles, but now, the ministers can understand and accept it. After all, this King Dingyuan is not an ordinary person.

But now that he is already the king of the county, if he wants to be crowned again, wouldn't he become the same prince as Zhu Yuanzhang's own son.

At this time, Zhu Biao suddenly played.

"Father, my son believes that if there is no new meritorious service, it is not appropriate to give more rewards. It is better to wait until Brother Tao accepts the management of the treasure banknotes and make credits before rewarding. It can block the mouths of the world."

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly. Usually when dealing with government affairs, Zhu Biao seldom talked back to himself, but what he said was always thoughtful.

"In this case, let's retreat to the court first, let's go to Zhujiazhuang again, and see what Tao'er has to say before making a decision."

However, Zhu Di told Zhu Yuanzhang that Zhu Tao was not in Zhuangzi now, but in the iron-making workshop, directing the workers to smelt the most advanced ironware in Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang took the three princes to the iron smelting place, and just arrived here when he heard Zhu Tao reprimanding the iron smelting workers.

"Why don't you have a long memory? Do you remember what I said, when you smelt iron, you need to add more sand to it. In this way, even if those Tartars melted the iron pot and re-smelted it into a weapon, they would still die because the weapon was too heavy?" Brittle and unusable, will snap."

Zhu Yuanzhang listened carefully, and only then did he realize that Zhu Tao had such a delicate mind, thinking of all the details.

It is said that having a child should be like Sun Zhongmou, but it seems that in the Ming Dynasty, you have to say that having a child should be like Zhu Tao.

According to common sense, being considered a adopted son by the emperor is a lucky thing, and it is difficult to find it even with a lantern. But on the other hand, Zhu Yuanzhang is really lucky to have picked up such a son.

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang coming, Zhu Tao hurried over to say hello, and greeted the three princes separately.

Finally, he asked.

"Father came here with a few brothers, what's the matter? Do you want to learn blacksmithing from me like the third brother?"

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and replied.

"It's fine for your third brother to do things like blacksmithing. Dad is here this time to discuss another matter with you. This matter is a good thing for you."

Since Zhu Tao recognized Zhu Yuanzhang as his father, he has never been idle. He scratched his head and felt that this matter was not that simple.

"Then do you plan to remove my name as chief minister of the cabinet, and then let me be an idle rich man, and live a life of eating and dying?"

Zhu Yuanzhang spat directly, and then said.

"Tao'er, how can you not do your job like this? Now you are not an ordinary owner of the villa, but the prince of our Hongwu Emperor. You should make a career."

Zhu Tao really couldn't listen to it any longer, since it wasn't this, then what good things could happen.

At this time Zhu Biao came over suddenly and said to Zhu Tao.

"You just got married, and you don't have any concubines or maids. Haven't we already started a trade war with Beiyuan? If things go well, you can choose the Mongolian women captured over there."

After hearing this, Zhu Tao couldn't help shaking his head. It seems that he has never said that he has such a goal.

Three wives, four concubines, and accompanying maids are simply a burden to him.

"I said, prince, you can enjoy this for yourself. I have no interest in this aspect. Rather than talking about three wives and four concubines, it is better to go back to sleep after eating and drinking. This is what I am happiest."

Zhu Biao patted Zhu Tao's shoulder helplessly, and said loudly.

"What prince, I am your elder brother!"

Zhu Tao also sighed and said.

"Big brother is big brother, why are you filming me? I can't stand your strength even with my small body, so just tell me, what does my father want me to do?"

Zhu Biao looked at Zhu Tao with a smile, and said with a smile.

"Don't say that, my mother is hoping that you will spread more branches and leaves for our Zhu family. You have been married for such a long time, so you should have such a plan."

Zhu Tao said in his heart, even if I spread my branches and leaves, I am not Zhang Wuji, I will not look for any Mongolian princess, he does not have such a unique taste.

"Brother, I think it's more appropriate to let the third brother do this kind of thing. After all, he is in Datong and has more contacts with Mongolians, so his aesthetic point of view should be more unique."

As soon as these words came out of his mouth, Zhu Yan gave him a blank look. I heard that you don't take the blame. If it wasn't for your father, I would have kicked you twice.

Seeing several sons bickering here, Zhu Yuanzhang came over with a smile and said.

"Father is kind, son is filial, brother and brother are respectful, our family should be like this, Tao'er, don't be joking, we really want you to take care of your Daming treasures and foreign trade wars."

After hearing this, Zhu Tao said directly with a bitter face.

"Father, I'm the chief assistant of the cabinet. Li Xiangguo is old enough to seek the country. If you put him aside and use me, a teenager, to handle affairs, I'm afraid I will be criticized by the ministers."

Zhu Yuanzhang replied with a smile.

"Big banknotes, that's our family's money bag. No matter how much is issued or how much is withdrawn, there must be a plan. If this matter is handed over to any minister, it will become a tool for them to make money, causing them to behave badly. No guarantee, it’s not that we can’t trust them, but the white silver is piled up in front of us like a mountain, even an elephant can soften it, and even the hardest bone can be ground.”

After listening to Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Zhu Tao was still a little helpless, shaking his head and said.

"Then why did you entrust such an important matter to me? I'm also an eye-catcher and want to be a dandy. Are you not afraid that I will print this money for fun?"

Zhu Yuanzhang directly gave an irrefutable reason.

"On the surface, it seems that only you are really capable of handling this matter, but in the end, we trust you, because you are our son, a member of our own family, a brother who fights tigers, and we need father and son to fight the tiger. Soldiers."
