Domineering Daming

Zhu Xu whispered to himself, his heart was on fire, and there was an inexplicable surge of emotion.

Liu Shimin glanced at Zhu Xu, and sent Zhu Xu into the Yuzao Palace with all his heart and responsibility.

……

……

Although according to regulations, the courtiers have 20 days of annual leave, from New Year's Eve to the [-]th of the first lunar month, but after a night of banquets, the courtiers were so motivated that they almost ignored the holidays and worked hard.

The ministers were busy with their work, and Zhu Xu was relieved a lot.In fact, the big framework has basically been structured, and it is all fragmentary things. Zhu Xu is rare for a while.

Under the eaves of the Yuzao Palace, a small hot pot was boiling, Zhu Xu and Li Jieyu were sitting opposite each other, with a little guy sitting in their arms.

I don't know if it's rain or snow outside, the patter is non-stop, and it's chilly.

In Li Jieyu's arms was Little Ciye, and while feeding him, he whispered to Zhu Xu, "The Kunning Palace and the Jiaotai Palace have all been tidied up, and the decorations that need to be decorated are also fully furnished. The ninth day of the lunar month is almost the same, so the wedding will not be delayed..."

Zhu Xu nodded, drank the hot porridge, and the next step was the big wedding.

The meaning of a big wedding is very important, but in fact the matter is very simple and can be completed in three to five days.

The latter is what Zhu Xu valued, to perform martial arts, to show off his military power to the world, to the whole world.

Many people only want to improve the morale of Daming and deter the little ones outside the region, but what Zhu Xu wants is to establish the power of Daming in the whole world, even the strongest position!

This point is very important, and it will have an incomparable effect on the present and future development of Ming Dynasty, especially the maritime trade and colonial development, which will have an immeasurable impact!

Zhu Xu didn't say anything about it. The adults in the outer court did not agree to open the sea ban, and they couldn't see so far. It was still the past model, and it was easy to do it first and then talk about it.

Zhu Xu ate silently, slowly thinking about it.With Daming's current firearms, it can definitely shock people's hearts, and it has enough shock to the surrounding Xiaoxiao, so no moths will be born for a period of time.

"Land alone is not enough..."

Zhu Xu suddenly murmured to himself, turned to look at Liu Shimin, and said, "Hongwu, are you armed now?"

Liu Shimin bowed, and said: "The Hongwu is still being repaired, tested, and waiting for the second launch. It should not be assembled yet."

Zhu Xu nodded slightly, pondered for a while, and said: "Decree Tianjin Wei, let the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of War, the Royal Political Council and other relevant ministries, ask them to step up a little bit, go into the water first, assemble weapons, and a naval battle will also be required for the grand martial arts show." , order the navy to get ready, hurry up and rehearse, I won’t go to see it, and when the time comes, I will take people to observe it, don’t embarrass me..."

"Follow the order." Liu Shimin understood.

Chapter 949 Leisurely

Zhu Xu gave himself a few days off, read very few memorials, summoned the fewest people, and listened to very few things.

Returning from the Fish and Algae Palace to the Nuan Pavilion of the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Xu was reclining on the soft bed, holding a book in his hand, and in front of him were two little guys, lying on the warm soft bed, wrapped like big rice dumplings , waving his hands and feet, yelling a few words from time to time, his big black eyes kept turning around.

Zhu Xu gave the two little guys a hug with his fingers from time to time, then flipped through the book and looked at it quietly.

Maybe it's because I've been busy all the time, and I seldom have the time to relax and read books seriously. Sneaking in from a busy schedule is the most enjoyable and cherishable.

From morning to lunch time, after taking care of the two little ones and eating, Zhu Xu lay on the bed again, with one arm propped up, quietly turning the pages of the book.

The two little fellows may be full of food and drink, and they are making a lot of noise. They seem to turn over, and they yelled from time to time. The little ones are quiet, huddled together, moving their little hands.

Xiao Shuxian squinted her eyes and gradually fell asleep, but Zhu Ciye kept her eyes wide open, staring blankly at Zhu Xu without moving.

Zhu Xu looked at him and smiled, bringing him something to eat from time to time.The little guy also ate, and looked at him after eating, without saying a word, and there was no meaning in his eyes.

Zhu Xu reckoned that he was just bored, so he teased him occasionally, and then read quietly.

Maybe it's because of the New Year's Eve, there are very few things outside to disturb him, making it rare for him to have a holiday.

It was very quiet in the warm pavilion, except for the occasional sound of Zhu Xu flipping through books.

"Uncle Emperor, Uncle Emperor..."

In the evening, a call sounded outside the door, and then a figure rushed in quickly, followed by Li Xiangjun and two court ladies, who stood cautiously outside the threshold.

Zhu Xu pretended not to hear, and continued to read quietly.

Xiao Yongning came to the front of the soft collapse, looked at the father, son, and woman above, first froze for a moment, blinked, then quickly took off his shoes, then climbed up, sat behind the feet of the two little guys, with a small face Excitedly said: "Uncle, do you know? Xiangjun just saw her mother come back, there are lanterns outside, all kinds of beautiful, delicious, and all kinds of things. Such fun..."

The little girl's eyes were wide open, and as she spoke, she suddenly ran inside again, sat behind Zhu Xu's shoulders, and held Zhu Xu's shoulders.

Zhu Xu glanced at the thick padded jacket she was wearing, not knowing what she was up to, and said calmly: "It's chaotic outside at this time, stay in the palace honestly."

The little girl squeezed harder, and said crisply: "Uncle, the Empress Dowager has allowed him to go out, it's not fun for him to be alone..."

Zhu Xu took her arm, threw it to the side, and said calmly: "I want to read a book today, if you make trouble again, you can live in the small black room outside for three days."

The little girl pursed her lips immediately, turned her eyes and crawled back again, whispering: "I don't want to go back, I want to sleep here for a while."

Zhu Xu didn't bother to talk to her, and let her lie down inside, reading a book by herself.

The little girl tossed and turned for a while, then sat up suddenly, groaned twice, jumped off the bed, put on her shoes and ran away quickly.

Zhu Xu ignored it, and glanced at the two little guys in front of him. Seeing that Zhu Ciye was still wide-eyed, looking around, he smiled and stretched out his hand to tease him for a while, and continued to read.

It wasn't until dark that Li Jieyu came to pick up the children. Looking at the two children who were taking good care of them, he smiled and said, "Your Majesty, they don't want to leave."

Zhu Xu got up and said, "Go, let's go to your place for dinner."

A family of four turned to the Fish and Algae Palace.

For two days in a row, Zhu Xu lived this kind of comfortable, leisure, and relaxed life.

Reading books, teasing the children, occasionally going to Hailanzhu to sit, and then going to the Compassion Palace for dinner, or chatting with the old concubine, the time flies by.

On the third day of the Lunar New Year, it was sunny and snowy.

Zhu Xu and Cao Wenzhao were soaking in the pool, the steam was steaming and the water was boiling hot.

The two leaned against the trough, their faces were covered with white towels, and most of their bodies were submerged in the water.

I don't know how long it took, Zhu Xu let out a long breath, turned his head to look at Cao Wenzhao, and said, "How is it?"

Cao Wenzhao took off the towel on his face, gasped, and said with a smile: "You are comfortable all over, when I get to the barracks, I will definitely get one, brothers will definitely like it."

Zhu Xu rubbed the towel, wiped the sweat off his face, and said, "How is things going?"

Cao Wenzhao also wiped his face, and said: "The location, official position, power and responsibility are basically clear. The money and food are still with the cabinet, and the Ministry of Households is asking for it. It is estimated that it will be completed by the end of March. At that time, the minister can rest assured. training."

Zhu Xu was a little dizzy, nodded when he heard that, and said: "That would be great. Practice first. If there is a chance, I will give you a chance to actually fight. You must be able to win. I want to build an invincible army of my Ming Dynasty, an army An invincible army needs money and food to support it, as well as the cultivation of honor and foundation. Victory on the battlefield is the best and only way..."

It was not only the first time Cao Wenzhao heard Zhu Xu talk about his concern for this army, he said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I still have some experience in training the army."

Zhu Xu laughed, wiped the towel on his neck, and turned his mind.
