Factory owner is king

Chapter 153
The four gates of the capital are closed and a curfew is imposed. Dongchang Jinyiwei jointly patrols the city under martial law. People are not allowed to wander around without reason. Violators will be punished as treason; the commander of the five city soldiers and horses will be transferred to Ping An to lead the front, rear, left, and middle five armies and horses to station outside the city. Geng Bingwen, the Marquis of Changxing, led the three major battalions of the Forbidden Army to guard the four gates;

Inside and outside, nearly 30 elite soldiers and horses of the imperial court, with their knives out of their sheaths and bows drawn up, rushed straight to Xiaohan with fierce murderous aura.

Hongwu's 31st year leap May 24th
Zhu Yuanzhang, who had been in a coma for five days, finally woke up again.Weakly gasping for a few times, he turned his head and saw the tearful grandson in front of the couch. Zhu Yuanzhang forced a smile: "Grandfather... How long have you been asleep?"

"It's been five days since I returned to the emperor's grandfather." Zhu Yunwen said softly, tears streaming down Zhu Yuanzhang's body uncontrollably: "Grandpa, you scared me to death, are you okay..."

"I'm scared to death for such a trivial matter, and I'm really useless." Zhu Yuanzhang reprimanded weakly, struggling to sit up.

Zhu Yunwen hurriedly arranged the pillows to lean on, and supported Zhu Yuanzhang to lean on.

"Have the vassal kings from all over the country entered the capital? How about the transfer of soldiers and horses in the capital? Is there any change?"

"Returning to Grandpa Huang, most of the feudal kings are on their way, and only a few who are close have entered the capital ahead of time. It's just that the fourth uncle was unable to make the trip due to a headache, but his three sons are rushing to the capital. .

Yun Wen had already ordered Marquis Wuying, Marquis Changxing, and the commanders of the Wucheng soldiers and horses to be stationed inside and outside the palace respectively, and ordered Dongchang and Jinyiwei to jointly martial law.In the past five days, there has been no change in Beijing. "

"Di'er..." Zhu Yuanzhang looked complicated, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it in the end.Taking a sad look at Zhu Yunqi, Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Grandson, I'm afraid Grandpa Huang will die..."

"Grandfather..."

"Don't talk, just listen to the emperor's grandfather quietly. The emperor will teach you something at the end." Patting Zhu Yunwen's head lovingly, Zhu Yuanzhang said slowly: "To be an emperor, no matter whether you are fatuous or not Well, it doesn’t matter if you work hard, the most important thing is to learn how to check and balance, which is the so-called emperor’s mind. Manchurian civil and military, I killed many people, but I left some of them for you.

Fang Xiaoru, this man has a great talent. I have not used him these years, just to grind his temper. After so many years, it is almost the same. After you succeed to the throne, you must use him as soon as possible.

There are also Geng Bingwen and Guo Ying, I have killed so many honorable generals, but left them alone.Geng Bingwen is good at guarding, with him around, your uncles can't do anything to you, and Guo Ying and Geng Bingwen have always been at odds, which can be used as a check and balance.You remember, as long as there are two of them, your country will be safe and secure.

Dongchang and Jinyiwei are the last things left to you by the emperor's grandfather. If there are any dirty or evil things, you just leave them to do it.You are too weak, and the military generals in the court will not accept it. You can obey small things, but if you feel that the power is falling, with them, you can kill as many people as the emperor can kill. . .cough. . .kill. "

"Cough, cough, cough!" Coughing violently, Zhu Yunwen hurriedly stroked Zhu Yuanzhang's chest and patted his back.

"Wow!" There was a mouthful of blood and a flush suddenly appeared on the pale face.

"Grandpa Huang! I'm going to call the imperial doctor!" Zhu Yunwen exclaimed, and was about to get up and walk out, but was grabbed by Zhu Yuanzhang: "Grandpa Huang is fine. He spit out a mouthful of blood. Grandpa Huang feels much better."

Zhu Yuanzhang's voice was much louder, and he seemed to have a bit of confidence.

"Really, really?" Zhu Yunwen was a little confused.

'This silly boy doesn't even know the light of the day. Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head with a wry smile, then changed his voice loudly: "Lao Zhang, Lao Liu, come out, it's time."

"Old Liu?" Zhu Yunwen was stunned for a moment, then his eyes blurred, and then he turned his head. Behind him stood two old eunuchs. Both of them were wearing brocade robes, but one was tall and thin, and the other was strong.The thin and tall Zhu Yunwen knew him, he was the personal entourage of the emperor's grandfather, the chief executive, Lao Zhang, but he had never seen the burly one next to him, it seemed that he was the old Liu that the emperor's grandfather was talking about.

"Where's the elixir I asked them to refine? How's the refining going?"

Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's inquiry, Lao Zhang stretched out his hand and took out a delicate wooden box the size of a palm: "Your Majesty, the 'time arrives' has been refined two days ago. Soldiers will be promoted to immortals, or their souls will return to Yincao. Before that, there are no taboos."

"En." Zhu Yuanzhang stretched out his hand and opened the wooden box, only to see one of the golden pills spinning around.

"Grandpa." Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang picking up the elixir and about to put it in his mouth, Zhu Yunqi couldn't help but stop him.

Zhu Yuanzhang just ignored it, raised his head, and swallowed the elixir in his hand.

The invisible momentum spread, and Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes flashed brightly: "Yun Wen, the emperor's grandfather used to hang out in the green forest in his early years, and he had to meet an expert to teach him an extraordinary skill, called: Emperor's Way."

"Royal Way?"

"That's right." Zhu Yuanzhang yelled, and slapped Zhu Yunwen's chest vigorously with his right hand. Behind them, Lao Liu and Lao Zhang looked at each other, and without hesitation, they reached out and patted Zhu Yunwen's back and waist.

All three of them had beards and hair, and Zhu Yunwen felt his whole body warm. Three streams of heat flowed from the back of his chest to three inches below the navel. His limbs and bones were all sore and limp. His mind was groggy, and he suddenly heard Zhu Yuanzhang in front of him say: "The true qi of the emperor's way requires no internal force and martial arts. The meridians are naturally formed and can be passed on to those who have never developed them. I can only give you 30 years of internal force, but with the two of them, it is enough to make you a A peerless master with century-old internal strength. The so-called son of heaven is ten steps away, and his words follow the law. Within ten steps, people are like enemies. With this kind of internal strength, even if you spend a day wandering in the rivers and lakes, you can go to the world!"

The heat all over his body was unbearable, Zhu Yunqi only felt his heart tremble suddenly, a wave of heat rushed straight to Tianling Baihui, rolled his eyes, and passed out.

Ganxi Palace

The fire flickers in the dark yellow copper basin
As soon as he loosened his hand, a dozen of yellow paper fell into the basin, and turned into fly ash in a blink of an eye.

"Is our family late?"

"The fire was just lit, and you came just in time." Li Caiyu clapped his hands, stood up and looked back at the visitor: "Usually you and Lao Liu have a bad relationship, but at this last time, you would actually think of coming to see him off for the last time." One ride."

"It's inconvenient for others, but I'm still idle, of course I have to come and have a look." The voice was soft, and the person speaking was a slender old man with a white face and no beard. What.

"A tribute?" Li Caiyu guessed.

"Yeah." The old man nodded: "I took some steamed buns for snacks and gave them to them, so as to save them from being hungry down here."

Opening the bag, the old man took out a dozen steamed buns and stacked them on the ground, and took out a bunch of paper money from his pocket, and threw them into the copper basin: "Lao Liu, Lao Zhang, let's go all the way. When you get there If Bian’er is missing something, tell me the yellow fan pillow and dream about it, and our family will burn it for you.”

"It's useless to talk about these things. If you really want to ask a dream, you will find me. If you are looking for you, you are not afraid of being pinched in your dream?"

"Hehe." Huang Fanzhen chuckled lightly, without refuting.

"Tell me...why do Lao Liu and Lao Zhang have to die?" Li Caiyu's voice showed a trace of sadness: "We are the only ones in the palace who are still companions. Once they leave, this day will be boring. A lot."

"What can we do if we don't die?" Huang Shanzhen sighed softly, and said sadly: "We eunuchs are born to be servants for others. As long as we are in the eyes of the emperor, life and death are just a matter of words. What's more Once Lao Liu and Lao Zhang die, no one will know about the shameful things about the emperor; even if they don't die, in the future, His Highness the eldest grandson will inherit the throne, so there can't be such two old things who know the basics around him, isn't it the same?
If you die early, you can give the monkey cubs a place, and you can win the trust and favor of the new emperor for us.The thing that counts in one fell swoop is nothing more than Zhou Yu beating Huang Gai, and the two of them died well. "

"Oh..." Li Caiyu sighed: "Sometimes our family thinks, what do you think we live this life for? If they are dead, we can still burn a piece of paper. When we die, we don't know Who will send us to the end?"

"You ask me, who should I ask?" Huang Shanzhen spread his hands.

A gust of wind caused the flames in the copper basin to rise sharply, causing some ashes to rise up.

Rubbing the folds of his body, Huang Fanzhen stood up: "Let's go, the palace has been strictly censored recently, so don't show your feet after a long time."

"Understood, you should be more careful."

. . . . . .

"Your godfather only accepted you as a adopted son. If he goes, the position of Tianmen Tianzitang will naturally fall on you."

Standing on the railing, Xu Ruyi looked at Liu Xi and said calmly.

"Godfather, isn't it..." Liu Xi's voice was very sad, and there were tears in his eyes.

"En." Xu Ruyi nodded: "Everyone is mortal, so don't worry too much about it. Although you two have only known each other for three or four years, occasionally Liu Xiaogan also mentioned you to me. Every time you talk about You come, he always smiles, it can be seen that he likes you very much."

"Godfather..." Liu Xi murmured, tears finally fell down.

Seeing Liu Xi sobbing softly, Xu Ruyi was speechless for a while, and didn't know what to say.

"Okay, the deceased is gone, and the living will continue to live their lives." Xu Ruyi casually patted the white marble railing and asked, "How are you doing with the Tianguang Wanzhao Kung Fu that Liu Xiaogan taught you? ?”

"Back to the sect master, the subordinates have already practiced to the second level, and the clouds are so bright."

Xu Ruyi nodded: "I've heard from Liu Xiaogan about the kung fu. The first three levels are the most difficult to enter the country. Once the foundation is solid, you will be able to make rapid progress in the future. It's because there is deep and shallow kung fu. You can practice to the second level in three years. It’s pretty good, but we have to keep trying.”

"Yes."

"In the early years, I originally planned to transfer you to the East Factory, but since you took over the position of the head of the Tianzi Hall, it will be a bit difficult to re-enter the East Factory, after all, the palace cannot do without you.

But that's fine too, His Highness the eldest grandson is also very close to you, when he succeeds, you will inevitably take over the position of chief executive.When the time comes, I will be outside and you will be inside, so they can just complement each other. "

Liu Xi said cautiously: "I'm afraid that my subordinates may not do well and ruin the sect master's important affairs."

"Don't be too nervous, take it easy." Xu Ruyi waved her hand and said, "You have met Li Caiyu and the others, and with their help in the palace, nothing serious will happen."

Nanjing Beijiao Racecourse
It used to be a vast farmland, but in the third year of Hongwu, it was confiscated by Zhu Yuanzhang and turned into a Happy Valley dedicated to the royal family.

In another hour, it will be the end of Zhu Yuanzhang's life, and he, No. 1 in the world, cannot fall on the sick bed. This is a shame, and this is a shame he cannot accept!He thought he could do it again.

"Yun Wen." Yu rushed forward, and Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Bring a horse, I want to ride a horse."

"Grandfather..." Zhu Yunqi wanted to comfort him, but seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's cold eyes, he finally obeyed.

After a while, a strong black horse was brought over, and Zhu Yuanzhang, supported by Zhu Yunqi, stepped up with great effort.

Looking around, behind him is an endless guard of honor and accompanying civil and military officials, sons and grandsons of the dragon.

"Ha ha!"

"Hahahaha!"

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

With the sound of wild laughter, the Supreme Being under Heaven raised his whip lightly, and then yanked it down heavily.

The steed neighed "Xi Lv Lv", and then shot away with an arrow.

Who would have thought that the cattle herders in Fengyang City and the beggars in Huangjue Temple could also ascend to the throne of the Nine-Five Supreme Beings? !
The century-old Mongolian and Yuan courts did not stop him, nor did the plots of the White Lotus Sect. Chen Youliang from Hubei and Zhang Jiusi from Jiangsu and Zhejiang were nothing but defeats under his command.

Over the past few decades, all the heroes in this world have fallen at his feet, and there is no one in this world who can compete with him.

With the rein in the left hand and the whip in the right hand, whipping again and again, like crazy

As far as the eye can see is his Daming country, and where the horse's hoof is treading is his eternal community.

This world can no longer accommodate me, Zhu Yuanzhang, then I will go to the sky and fight with God again!
As soon as the reins were tightened, the horse rose up with manpower.Pointing the long knife obliquely at the sky, Zhu Yuanzhang uttered the last cry in his life.

"I am originally a commoner, what can the world do to me!"

. . . . . .

The bell of Wufeng Tower rang nine times in a row, resounding throughout Nanjing.

"emperor!"

"Your Majesty!"

Outside the Chengtian Gate, the civil and military officials who had been waiting for nearly two hours howled loudly.Beating his chest and stamping his feet, piercing his heart and lungs, as if his own father had died.If someone can get closer and take a closer look, they will find that there are not many people who are really crying, and most of them are just howling.

This is also something that can't be helped, the life of being an official under Emperor Hongwu is really difficult, and it is not much difference between life and death.Now that Emperor Hongwu is on a grand tour, and His Royal Highness, the eldest grandson, is about to succeed to the throne, the happy days they have dreamed of day and night are coming. If they didn't laugh out loud, it was already the result of desperate restraint.

After all, the cries of civil and military officials were not comparable to the bells of the Wufeng Tower, and even if they broke their throats, they could not reach the inner garden of the deep palace, nor could they reach Zhu Yunqi's ears.

Quietly watching the yellow silk attached to Zhu Yuanzhang's face, tears that had been restrained for a long time overflowed from Zhu Yunwen's red and swollen eyes again.

"Grandfather...you don't want Yun Wen..."

Behind them, Xu Ruyi and Liu Xi looked at each other without speaking.At this time, Zhu Yunqi didn't need other people's consolation, so it might be a good thing to let him be quiet.

Looking at Zhu Yuanzhang who had passed away on the dragon bed, Xu Ruyi couldn't help feeling sad.

A hero for a lifetime, but in the end he was no match for life, old age, sickness and death.Sometimes I think about it, in fact, life is quite boring, as if everything is preordained, you just need to go through it step by step.
