First Prince of Ming Dynasty

Zhu Biao thought for a while and replied: I think that neither of them is suitable. The smugglers must involve the interests of many people, including some high-ranking people. I suggest that Xu Yungong, Chang Mao, and Li Qi go to deal with this matter. .”

A gleam of satisfaction flashed in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes. If he asked other princes or ministers, they would only choose one of the options he proposed, and they didn't have the guts to put forward their own ideas.

After Zhu Biao finished speaking, he felt a little inappropriate, and then added: You can also let the second and third children go. As they get older, it's not a problem to wander around the capital all the time. benefit.

Only then did Zhu Yuanzhang nod happily: Go arrange it, and we won't interfere.

Zhu Biao responded, Mao Xiang had his own problems, and some high-level cadres in the Pro-Army Duwei's Mansion have become a bit corrupt after coming from troubled times, which is also a normal thing.

After all, the Pro-Army Captain's Mansion is a secret service agency. The characteristic of this kind of agency is its low position and power.

As for the censor, it's not that Zhu Biao looked down on them. Even if they were covered with tiger skins, it would not be so easy to find some people in the northern border where there are many martial arts.

Wu Xun was xenophobic, even the generals who had nothing to do with this matter would never want to see civilian officials act recklessly on their heads, so the difficulty of investigating the case would undoubtedly be much higher, and the imperial envoy would most likely be disgraced. Come back with success.

It is different to dispatch Xu Yungong and Chang Mao. They are the direct descendants of Wu Xun, and they are also the top of the future. For Wu Xun generals, internal self-examination and thorough investigation by civil officials are two different things.

As for Li Qi, it was just a joke. No matter how beautiful Li Shanchang was, he is now in a situation where people are taking tea, and Li Qi is also pursuing a career as a civil servant. In the future, he will marry a princess, although he will definitely be able to inherit the country Dukedom, but it is destined to become a decoration, and it is absolutely impossible to become a military boss.

Zhu Biao would support his younger sister for the sake of his own sister's face, not to mention that the future prince consort would undoubtedly be a good tool to balance the internal power of the nobles.

As for the second child and the third child, it is every father's expectation to hope for their son to become a dragon. Although Lao Zhu loves the eldest son the most, the other sons are also sons, and he doesn't want to see them idle around in the capital.

Zhu Biao didn't care too much, everyone knew that the overall situation was settled, even if he had the intention to secretly support Qianlong, no one dared to reveal it now, unless there was news of Zhu Biao's poor health.

The two of them were tired after walking for so long, so Zhu Yuanzhang found a stone that looked pleasing to the eye and sat on it, scratched his buttocks, squinted his eyes and looked up at the dazzling sun in the sky. Sneezed out.

Only then did Lao Zhu turn his head back satisfied: Yesterday, the Ministry of Rites reported that Wang Shijian had returned to his hometown, and asked the imperial court how he would honor him.

We plan to posthumously designate him as a senior official, promote him to be a senior official, reward him with a thousand taels of silver, and then put his grandson in the Imperial College. This is reasonable.

Zhu Biao nodded in agreement. He didn't need to talk too much about something that his father had already made up his mind. Moreover, Wang Shijian was posthumously named as a second-rank senior official from the mere seventh-rank Yushitai. A lot of honor and respectability.

This can be regarded as the court’s daughter buying horse bones. After Wang Shijian’s death, Zhu Biaoren specially sent people to settle his bad debts in Shaanxi and Gansu. Today’s Dr. Wang Shijian can be regarded as a model of honesty and integrity of Ming officials, and an example of literati serving the country .

Zhu Biao had already sent a letter to ask his husband Song Lian to endorse him. The Ministry of Rites and Officials of the imperial court would send officials to read out the imperial decree and preside over the burial ceremony of Wang Shijian. Zhu Biao would also send eunuchs to watch the ceremony.

This kind of honor and decency is rare, Wang Shijian's death is not a loss, and as long as the Wang family's children don't take evil paths in the past few decades, their official careers must be smooth.

After Zhu Yuanzhang rested for a while, he got up and walked back to the Jinshen Hall. The father and son sat down and drank a cup of tea.

Zhu Bianben wanted to help with the review, but was kicked out by his father and asked him to meet Princess Gaoli. After all, he had been hanging out for half a year, so it was a bit unreasonable.

Zhu Biao looked at the time, and it was almost time for lunch, so he asked Liu An to send a message outside the palace first, so that the princess could be prepared, otherwise it would be inappropriate to rush to the door.

In fact, it was too late to write a letter now, and it is reasonable to make an appointment a few days in advance, but Zhu Biao, as the crown prince of the suzerain state, did not dare to pick any faults with Goryeo.

Then he turned around and walked towards the East Palace, counting the time in his mind, and told Liu Jin who was beside him: Let Xu Yungong, Changmao and Li Qiyin come to the palace to see you at some time.

After walking a few steps, Zhu Biao ordered, Call Fu Zhong, Feng Cheng, and Deng Zhen.

Liu Jin made a promise, thinking he was a good guy, at least he was the eldest son of the Duke, and he was one of the best young men in brocade clothes in the capital.

Zhu Biao's age may not be able to count on the current founding generals in the future, so it is necessary to train some honorable children of similar age.

Moreover, as the second generation of the founding of the country, their personalities and abilities are not bad. Zhu Biao's civil servants have never had anything to worry about, let alone Guo Chong, Zhang Fan, Li Jin and other middle-level civil officials who are in charge of the state capital. The operation of the important departments of the central government.

In terms of Wu Xun's training, due to Hu Weiyong's reasons, he had no contact with anything except Xu Yungong, Changmao Tang Ding. After all, it was not time to make a conclusion, and random training could easily affect judgment.

But now Hu Weiyong's movements are actually very clear, Wenchen is grasping with one hand, Wu Xun's side is only Tang Shengzong, Lu Zhongheng, Pingliang Marquis Fei Ju, Nan'an Marquis Yu Tongyuan, Henan Marquis Luju, etc. It's not something he can close.

Unless their deadly handle is held by Hu Weiyong, they will not be able to attach to Hu Weiyong after they have achieved fame, even if he is the prime minister of the dynasty.

Hu Weiyong is also aware of this, so he won't try his best to win over people at the level of the Duke. With this skill, it is better to gather the generals around the capital. Pitiful.

Therefore, it is more necessary for generals with low official positions and no titles to fight for. This group of military generals with first- and second-rank official positions have a lot of resentment for not being knighted. No one will think that they are weaker than anyone else. , They were all made of corpses and blood. Why are they military officers and we are military officers.

The difference here is that idiots know it well, the most obvious is that their sons are born as Lord Marquis, hereditary, and their sons can only receive a commander of the third or fourth rank at most.
