Daming Wuhou

In the 17th year of Hongwu, Tang and Gao were sentenced to death for many crimes such as embezzlement and breaking the law, disrupting military affairs, and eliminating dissidents.

Killing people these days doesn't mean just killing a criminal, it means killing the whole family.What's more, in Emperor Hongwu's view, it is not an exaggeration to punish the whole family for the crimes they committed.How much Emperor Hongwu hated corrupt officials, not to mention that this corrupt and perverted person was still in the army. Emperor Hongwu started his business by relying on the army, so he naturally knew the importance of military power, so how could he tolerate such moths.What's more, there are still wolves from all over the place waiting for Emperor Hongwu to clean them up. That's good. Before the wolves are cleaned up, there are moths inside...

With the operation of Emperor Hongwu and the secret promotion of Zhu Di, Pingyan Mansion got rid of the blood-sucking leeches on his body at an extremely fast speed.

At the same time, Emperor Hongwu also announced this matter to the world, ordering all the officials to take it as a warning, and their stories were also circulated among the people of Pingyan Mansion. When it comes to the Tang family and the Gao family, as well as those around them who were also dealt with After the vassal officials, the simple people are extremely disgusted...

These people are ashamed of the emperor and the common people, and they have ruined the foundation of the Ming Dynasty. They are sinners through the ages, damn it!

The exact opposite is Zhu Di's rising reputation.

After mentioning the public opinion that day, Lu Changting firmly remembered it in his heart. When the turmoil in Pingyan Mansion calmed down, he couldn't even take care of Shi Jiaci, so he immediately asked Zhu Di to rectify his staff...Zhu Di naturally responded to his requests, Although he didn't know the significance of this, but he trusted Lu Changting, and he surpassed everything.

After confirming that there was no movement from Shi Jiaci's side for the time being, Lu Changting put his body and mind into it. By the way, he also drew some drawings of Feng Shui objects and handed them to Ji Baoshan to do.

In the blink of an eye a few months have passed, and the initial results have already been achieved.

But at this time, Lu Changting not only had a few more thugs, but also a stack of letters from Qin Wang's mansion.

Zhu Di counted the letters piled up on Lu Changting's desk...

"Ten seals." Zhu Di said full of jealousy.

Lu Changting pretended not to hear.

In such an underdeveloped era of communications, being able to send so many letters within a few months is indeed too diligent.

Zhu Di held the letter in his hand: "I'll put it away for you." The so-called "put it away" was actually put away by Zhu Di.

Lu Changting blinked, but did not refute anything.Zhu Di's jealous behavior is considered a little fun in life, and he doesn't need to destroy it.

"Today is the day to execute them." Zhu Di whispered.

Lu Changting nodded.

The so-called post-autumn execution first comes from the record in the Book of Rites that "when the cool wind comes, the white dew falls, the cicadas sing, the eagle is a sacrifice to the bird, and it is used to kill."Later, Dong Zhongshu, a Confucian of the Han Dynasty, put forward the rule that "the king matches the sky, which is called his way. The sky has four seasons, and the king has four states. If the four states are like four seasons, they are of the same kind. Heaven and man have the same. Celebrate as spring, reward as Summer, punishment for autumn, and punishment for winter", that is to say, spring and autumn should be rewarded, and autumn and winter should be punished.

In the eyes of the ancients, spring and summer are the seasons for the growth of all things, and autumn and winter are the seasons for killing and hiding. Only when people follow the four seasons in this way can they conform to the will of heaven and get the favor of the gods.

From then on, except for treason and other major crimes, most of the rest of the crimes were committed after the autumn frost and before the winter solstice.

This is the case with Tang Yihai, Gao Yunhu and their cronies.

As soon as the news of this execution came out, those who were still hopeful would probably despair.

This is undoubtedly good news.

Lu Changting hooked his lips and said, "Then Tang Yue will be very happy too." Now Tang Yue is the only one left in the Tang family.Her mother who became a concubine was not a good thing, so Zhu Di moved his fingers and only Tang Yue was left.

Zhu Di nodded, but said in his mouth: "Don't talk about others, Changting's thoughts are always on others..."

Lu Changting felt very innocent: "I don't know what you are, so naturally I don't need to ask any more, I can see clearly with a pair of eyes."

Zhu Di's eyes dimmed slightly, and he said meaningfully: "There are still some things I don't know..."

When Lu Changting met his gaze, he knew it was not a good thing to say, so he couldn't help but immediately said, "I don't want to know yet."

Zhu Di was not disappointed either, and while smiling, he sat down beside Lu Changting, and said, "Then let's wait for later..." After finishing speaking, Zhu Di regained his serious expression: "Daoyan is back."

When Lu Changting arrived in Beiping before, Dao Yan was not in Beiping, but went to visit friends.Lu Changting also secretly said, this host is really incompetent!Unexpectedly, he came back at this time.

The reason why Zhu Di told him was also because Lu Changting and Dao Yan still had a nominal master-student status. According to the rules, they should always come to visit.

"Shall I go with you?" Zhu Di asked.

Lu Changting's expression became slightly weird: "My daughter-in-law sees the teacher?"

"It's my son-in-law." Zhu Di corrected.This is related to the future up and down issues, of course Zhu Di will not give in half a step.

Lu Changting didn't bother to argue with him, anyway, if Zhu Di wants to eat meat, why not listen to him?

"Then let's go." Lu Changting said.Thinking about it, Zhu Di would also take the opportunity to discuss some matters with Dao Yan.Now Lu Changting has long since lost his wariness and even resistance to Dao Yan.Dao Yan is very evil, but he played a great role in the process of King Yan's seizure of the throne. Just because of this, Lu Changting will be closer to him than before.

After thinking about it, Lu Changting asked someone to prepare a small gift.

He asked Ji Baoshan to make it, an extremely delicate and small incense holder.Anyway, it's enough to be polite and affectionate.What can Dao Yan lack?He has no shortage of things.It is enough for Lu Changting to send this.

Put the incense stick in a beautiful box, and it looks decent in your hand.

Only Zhu Di and Ma Sanbao knew that what was put there...was nothing more than an incense stick.

Zhu Di held Lu Changting's hand and led him all the way out the door.

The servants still looked accustomed to it, Ma Sanbao saw it and sighed silently... He was the only one watching clearly, it was really stressful.

When they were about to reach the gate of the palace, several figures gradually approached them.

Lu Changting paused, and saw clearly that the people who came were Ji Zilan and Tang Yue.

These two people have changed their attire now. Although they still look charming, their aura is cleaner.

In the past when sending Tang Yihai away and wanting to send Tangyue out, of course he didn't dress him up in a proper way, but instead dressed him up like a girl in a brothel at a young age.Now that she has changed her appearance, the innocent side of the girl is gradually revealed.

Lu Changting also felt quite admirable when he looked at it. At this age, in the future generations, he would be a little girl held in the palm of his parents. For such a beautiful girl, I am afraid that all kinds of pain, love, and love are not enough...

But looking at Tangyue's face again, there is no longer the dull despair of the past.Her face was filled with the smile that ordinary girls would have, and it was sweet and pleasant.

The corners of Lu Changting's mouth could not help but curl up. People who have experienced wind and rain and can still cheer up are always admired and admired.

Seeing Lu Changting looking at her, Tang Yue raised her head and said, "I'm here to thank Mr. Lu! They're dead...they're finally dead!" Tang Yue revealed a sweet smile as she spoke.Obviously also heard the news of their execution.

Seeing her so easily satisfied, Lu Changting couldn't help but smile.

Tang Yue was also too sincere, she patronized to thank him, but she didn't thank Zhu Di, didn't she know that thanking King Yan was the correct posture at this time?

Of course, Tang Yue has a pure heart, so Lu Changting naturally wouldn't deliberately remind her.Sometimes it's better to be pure and natural...

"Well, congratulations." Lu Changting smiled faintly.

Tangyue is petite and small, and leaning towards Ji Zilan when she heard the words, she firmly grabbed Ji Zilan's sleeves, and asked with a slightly nervous face: "I, can I stay with Sister Ji and stay in Yanwang Mansion?" ?"

Ji Zilan looked astonished, and hurriedly lowered her head to look at Tangyue, but she didn't expect Tangyue to say these words.From her point of view, although Tangyue was tough, she was always a bit timid. She didn't know what she dared not say, but in the end she said it from Tangyue's mouth.

Lu Changting couldn't help but looked at Zhu Di, this Palace of Prince Yan belonged to him.

But Zhu Di didn't take these two people seriously. If Zhu Di cared about Ji Zilan before, then after Lu Changting accepted him, he didn't take Ji Zilan seriously at all. Whether to stay or not is just a matter of one sentence, it is too easy for Yan Wangfu to support two people.

So he said very generously: "Changting is the master."

The other people present were stunned because they didn't understand what Zhu Dixiu meant.

Ji Zilan doesn't know Zhu Di's indifferent thoughts. She has struggled in the world for many years and only knows the principle of equal exchange. If she wants to get a good life, she must give and give.She also knows that no one in the royal palace likes her, and her affection for Mr. Lu can only stop at the top of her affection... so... what else can she do? ?

Ji Zilan gritted her teeth and said, "If I can stay in the palace, I would be willing to be a slave." Ji Zilan's eyes shone with sincerity.

All she has learned is the ability to serve people, not to mention that aspect of serving, she is very good at serving people comfortably.

But Zhu Di is not a person who indulges in enjoyment, so naturally he doesn't care about these.

But in Lu Changting's eyes, he saw more advantages in Ji Zilan... If he hadn't noticed this woman before, even after the Tang Yun incident, Lu Changting had seen the potential in Ji Zilan.

He whispered: "Then you can continue to stay in the palace, food, clothing, housing and transportation are covered by the palace, but there is no other money. If you want to make money, you can do it, and I will explain it to you in the future." Standing at this moment Talking about these things on the road is obviously not a wise choice.

Lu Changting's words startled Ji Zilan and Tang Yue, and also slightly surprised Zhu Di.

Zhu Di was surprised by Lu Changting's arrangement. Does Changting still want to use them?But after thinking about it, as long as it's not used for that purpose, he can let Lu Changting do whatever he wants.

Compared with Zhu Di's astonishment, Ji Zilan and Tang Yue were almost frightened.

Listening to Mr. Lu's tone, he didn't mean to be fooling at all... He was really thinking about what they could do.

Naturally, Ji Zilan couldn't help being overjoyed, her eyes couldn't stop turning red, and she said, "Thank you, Mr. Lu!" Her affection for Lu Changting stopped here, and it wasn't that she hated Lu Changting because she didn't want to repay her kindness. Changting, but she felt that her affection for Lu Changting was a blasphemy to him.

Lu Changting is indeed a genuinely good person as she said to Tang Yue.

Ji Zilan never imagined that she could have such a life, and these were all given to her by Lu Changting... Her affection for Lu Changting naturally turned into admiration and gratitude, and she waved away everything else.

Ji Zilan thought about it, and tugged Tangyue, Tangyue recovered from her daze, and quickly followed suit to thank Lu Changting.

Lu Changting didn't feel that he had done such a great thing, he said: "Go back, King Yan and I should go out."

"Yes, yes!" Ji Zilan smiled with tears in her eyes, and happily took Tangyue back home.

When Lu Changting and Zhu Di got into the carriage together, Lu Changting heard him ask: "What can we do if we keep them? Changting doesn't like such a woman, does he?"

Lu Changting raised his eyebrows unhappily: "If I like it, why should I wait until now? Wouldn't it be better for me to hold the beauty in my arms before I have anything to do with you?" Lu Changting was not sure how much he felt towards Zhu Di. Love, but he was sure that he would remain so faithful.

It was in his nature that he couldn't be a playboy.

Zhu Di immediately knew that he had said something wrong, and hurriedly said: "Changting, don't argue with me." Zhu Di suddenly grabbed his hand, pressed it to his chest, and said, "Changting may feel that there is something wrong here. uneasy?"

Lu Changting thought in his heart that I didn't take the electrocardiogram... But he curled his fingers and said uncomfortably: "Why should you be uneasy?" He said arrogantly: "You just need to know that I am yours." Such weak words were spoken by him in such a tone. Looking at his beautiful eyes, Zhu Di felt a surge of excitement in his heart. He couldn't help clasping Lu Changting's waist and kissed Lu Changting's. lip.

Lu Changting knew that these words seemed to be flirting, and he also expected Zhu Di's reaction. The only thing he didn't expect was that this reaction was a bit too intense...

So a fire ignited the entire grassland, probably this is the feeling.

Zhu Di's kiss became more and more inseparable, his hands brushed over the hem of his clothes, and touched the skin under the thick autumn clothes.

Lu Changting just couldn't help pushing him away.

Lu Changting frowned and said, "I'm going to leave a mark..." After kissing for a long time, the mouth will be swollen by two points.In the past, I always felt that the words written in the scriptures were exaggerated, but when it fell on me, I realized that it was not an exaggeration, so in order not to meet Dao Yan with reddish and swollen lips, Lu Changting wisely blocked Zhu Di's intimacy .

Zhu Di felt a little regretful in his heart, but after thinking about it, he would not be able to eat meat anyway, wouldn't he be the one who suffers if he pushes on?He let go of Lu Changting just now.

Zhu Di smiled, raised his hand to caress his lips, and said, "If Changting is willing to say a few more words like this to me in the future, I can't help but drown in it..."

Lu Changting said angrily, "Then I will keep my mouth shut from now on."

I don't know where Zhu Di learned the skills, but now he doesn't look like a steady brother before, and when it comes to talking about love, those words are not as good as those.

How did Lu Changting know that this move was really learned by Zhu Di from the scriptures with great concentration, otherwise how could he be so nasty?

Ever since Lu Changting went to Xi'an, Zhu Di began to plan for a rainy day, and now it happened to be used, and Zhu Di was relieved.

After all, a man in love will always worry about whether he will be too dull and make the other party feel extremely boring.

If Lu Changting knew about Zhu Di's thoughts, he would definitely not be able to help but say, "The fourth brother is already too unrestrained..."

In a blink of an eye, the carriage arrived outside Qingshou Temple.

They often deal with Qingshou Temple, the little novice came out obediently to wait for their carriage approaching.

When the two of them got off the carriage, the little novice greeted him: "His Royal Highness King Yan, Mr. Lu. Are you two here to see us as the presiding officer?"

"Exactly." It was Lu Changting who spoke. After all, Zhu Di was playing the role of accompaniment today, so Lu Changting was going to play the role of host to his fullest.

The little novice nodded, then quickly turned around and said, "Please come with me."

It was only a day since Dao Yan returned to Beiping, and Lu Changting came early, so naturally such actions were used to gain Dao Yan's favorability.

The little novice pushed open the door of the room in front of him and said, "The abbot is inside."

Lu Changting and Zhu Di walked in together, and Daoyan stood up unhurriedly, and greeted Zhu Di respectfully, then he looked at Lu Changting and said, "I was wondering if Changting would come to see me?" Teacher, I really waited for it unexpectedly." A little smile appeared on Dao Yan's face.

These words reminded himself that he was his teacher now, and Lu Changting immediately realized that Daoyan cared very much about whether he came or not.

Lu Changting immediately sent out the gift and said, "It's for the teacher."

Dao Yan saw that his posture was much more obedient, and he didn't quite get used to it for a while, but then he couldn't help laughing at himself, why did he still like Lu Changting's resistant posture?

Dao Yan held the palm-sized exquisite box in the palm of his hand, obviously its weight was not heavy, but Dao Yan felt a heavy feeling on the palm of his hand, and the expression on his face turned into gentleness unconsciously.

"Thank you Changting for your kindness." Dao Yan put the box away as he said, but did not open it in a hurry.

After inviting Lu Changting and Zhu Di to sit down, he asked the little novice to bring tea and water and refreshments.

Dao Yan looked at Lu Changting for a while, and said, "What did Changting eat in Xi'an, so that he has grown taller again?"

Lu Changting was worried that Zhu Di would be jealous, so he immediately said without thinking, "The food is the same, and I also grew a lot taller in Beijing, but Master Daoyan didn't notice it."

Dao Yan also wanted to exchange some pleasantries, but he didn't expect that Lu Changting's answer would be so serious. Although Dao Yan felt a little strange, he still didn't dwell on this topic.

It's just... Dao Yan's gaze faltered on Lu Changting's neck, then he moved away, and began to talk to Zhu Di calmly.

Lu Changting knew that the next conversation would be very boring, so he simply picked up two pieces of snacks, and walked out of the meditation room while eating.

Zhu Di and Dao Yan chatted for a short time, and after the end, Dao Yan deliberately left them to have a fast meal in the temple.

While sitting quietly in front of the table and waiting for dinner, Dao Yan's eyes swept over Lu Changting again.

Lu Changting looked back in surprise: "What's the matter?" Could it be that the gift he gave was too light?

Dao Yan didn't hide his gaze, but deliberately looked at Lu Changting's neck, and then withdrew his gaze and said, "It's nothing."

How could Lu Changting believe his words?

He turned his head to look at Zhu Di, and Zhu Di glanced at his neck, and then said, "It's all right." After that, Zhu Di picked up food for Lu Changting with a calm expression.

Only then did Lu Changting believe it.

It's just that since nothing happened, what does Dao Yan mean by looking at him?

After the fast meal, Zhu Di left in a hurry with Lu Changting because he still had work to do. Lu Changting also knew that it was not suitable for them to stay for too long. The higher Zhu Di's reputation in Beiping is now, the more attention he will receive. Just pay more attention.

Dao Yan personally sent them outside the temple, but his eyes remained glued to Lu Changting, looking like a loving teacher.

When Lu Changting was about to get into the carriage, he looked back at Dao Yan.

Dao Yan stood there calmly and self-sufficiently, with no sign of exhaustion from the exhaustion on his face, but there was no smile on his face at this time, and his eyes were even a little cold. Coupled with his extremely ferocious face, if She's a weak heart, I'm afraid I'll be terrified just by looking at it...

Dao Yan glanced towards Lu Changting as if aware of it, and the cold expression on his face suddenly turned into a soft one.He nodded to Lu Changting, Lu Changting smiled faintly, closed the car door and sat down in his seat.

Lu Changting frowned and said, "Why is Dao Yan a bit strange?"

Zhu Di said lightly: "He must have discovered the relationship between you and me." His voice was actually a little careless.

But this sentence, which was very plain to Zhu Di, sounded like a thunderbolt to Lu Changting's ears.

What is Dao Yan's ambition?Be a minister!He wants to support Zhu Di to succeed him as President!If he knew about the relationship between them... how about it?

Normal people would think that a prince with broken sleeves is completely out of line with the throne.

Lu Changting's eyebrows were drawn together almost instantly.

Seeing this, Zhu Di hurriedly comforted him: "Changting, don't worry, even if Daoyan knows, he is a smart person, and he won't let it out."

Compared to leaking, Lu Changting was more worried that Dao Yan would regard him as a roadblock.

But Lu Changting couldn't tell Zhu Di these things, and his brows couldn't help but frowned even tighter.

Zhu Di hurriedly hugged Lu Changting into his arms, and said in a deep voice, "Changting trusts me, how can I let you have trouble?"

Lu Changting shook his head, stopped talking about this topic, but turned his voice to ask: "How did Dao Yan see it?" Lu Changting was not too surprised by this result, who is Dao Yan?His eyes are sharp and vicious, so it should be easy to see that something is wrong...

Zhu Di raised his hand and stroked Lu Changting's neck: "Here..."

Lu Changting didn't feel itchy, he just broke free from Zhu Di's embrace: "Didn't you say you're fine?"

"Dao Yan has already seen through it, and it is useless to say anything else. There were other people around at the time, so I can only say nothing, so as not to draw everyone's attention to you instead." Zhu Di said lightly, speaking with his fingers still It scratched Lu Changting's neck.

"Not bad..." Lu Changting slowly calmed down.

Apart from the nervousness and worry at the beginning, he is now able to calmly think about the following countermeasures.

After returning to Queen Yan, Lu Changting couldn't wait to look in the mirror, but Lu Changting felt that this photo was really a mistake, and it was really unlucky.

There was a red mark on the back of his neck, which looked like a hickey at first glance, and he guessed that Dao Yan thought so too.But that place was actually the mark on his neck when Zhu Di buckled him into the carriage and kissed him... Now that the time has passed, the red mark is gradually showing signs of turning blue.

Lu Changting's face darkened, and he suddenly felt that he had been wronged.

But he really had an affair with Zhu Di... He was guilty of being a thief, so it's no wonder that Dao Yan scared him so easily.

Lu Changting pointed to his neck, turned around and gritted his teeth at Zhu Di, "Fourth brother did a good job."

Zhu Di was sitting in front of the table reviewing the letter in his hand, and when he heard Lu Changting's voice, he turned his head, looked at Lu Changting's neck, and said, "I can do two more good things."

Lu Changting: ...

Zhu Di smiled, turned his head and continued to read the letter presented in his hand.

It also included an unusual letter...

Zhu Di slowly unfolded.

"Is fourth brother not afraid at all?" Lu Changting stared at his tall and steady back for a while, then suddenly asked.

Zhu Di didn't turn his head back: "I'm afraid."

Lu Changting unconsciously pursed his lips.

"But I'm afraid that Chang Ting doesn't please me enough."

Lu Changting: ...

Zhu Di paused, and suddenly changed his tone, becoming serious: "What does Changting think of the Pingyan Mansion today?"

Lu Changting said: "Without moths, it is naturally extremely clean, and the rest of the officials and generals are willing to listen to Fourth Brother."

Zhu Di smiled: "Pingyan Mansion has already belonged to King Yan Mansion, and Qingshou Temple belongs to Pingyan Mansion and Changting. I dare to let outsiders know our relationship because the owner here is me."

Zhu Di said this with confidence, even a little conceited.

"I guessed some of Dao Yan's thoughts. He is very smart, has methods and skills, but what is he in front of the huge Pingyan Mansion?" Zhu Di said: "Sooner or later, it will be impossible to hide it. Would you like to deliberately cover up with Chang Ting, if that's the case, wouldn't you be worried all day long? Wouldn't it be that what I brought to Chang Ting has no benefit at all, but is full of disadvantages?"

Lu Changting was slightly moved: "What you said is true." He and Zhu Di are very similar in one aspect.

Neither of them like to hide and do underground love affairs.

Since... Now that they are already walking together, it is better to think clearly about all the consequences of exposure.It's no use holding on to your troubles, you have to solve them.

Lu Changting blinked: "From then on, it's up to you..." "Anyone knows, as long as Hong Wudi doesn't know." Lu Changting thought for a while, and added this sentence.

Zhu Di's tone was very firm: "I won't let him have a chance to know."

After preparing to expose, Lu Changting felt extremely relaxed.

Seeing that his mood had improved, Zhu Di quickly handed the things in his hands to Lu Changting: "Changting, look, we probably don't have much time to worry about these things from now on."

Lu Changting took a closer look, but saw that it was a message from Ying Tianfu.

This is... the information Zhu Di collected?

Lu Changting immediately changed his color.

What is recorded above is the big move of Emperor Hongwu.

For example, order Feng Sheng, Duke of the Song Dynasty, to monitor the actions of Hana in the border passes of Daning, or order the Ministry of Households to withdraw millions of ingots from the treasury, and at the same time recruit tens of thousands of civilians, etc...

Lu Changting looked at this piece of information, and a piece of history suddenly popped up in his mind.

This should have happened in the 19th year of Hongwu...

This is a sign that Emperor Hongwu is going to free up his hands to deal with Hanachu and Canyuan!

After all these were cleaned up, the Mongolian soldiers were attacked.

These are all in order. Emperor Hongwu first adopted a soft policy, although Lu Changting felt that he was not too soft, and then he sent troops to beat him up and conquer the territory.

Lu Changting was immediately excited.

Emperor Hongwu is preparing for Zhu Di's reputation and military power, so he can prepare for Zhu Di's logistics without any worries...

Lu Changting returned the letter to Zhu Di, and then realized slowly that Zhu Di showed him this in order to express his attitude in front of him, expressing that he had nothing to hide from him, which can also be verified His heart is full...

Lu Changting has to say that these methods are really rough...but they are also really useful...

Zhu Di laughed and said, "Changting will be wronged."

"Grievance?" Where did this word come from?

"If there is a war with Mongolia, the war will be cruel. Although I want to bring Changting by my side, I am more worried about Changting's safety. If you want me to relax..."

Before Zhu Di could finish speaking, Lu Changting realized: "It's time to go to the barracks again, right?"

"Yes." After finishing speaking, Zhu Di smiled meaningfully: "I will teach Changting one more time."

Lu Changting suddenly thought of how Zhu Di taught him kung fu when he was younger...

Ha ha.

Lu Changting threw the letter to him, and went out to ask Ma Sanbao to bring him the wound medicine.

It's better to wipe the mark on the neck, it's green and red, very dazzling.

Looking at his leaving back, Zhu Di sighed secretly.

From that day on, Dao Yan never invited Lu Changting again, nor did he come to Prince Yan's mansion, which made Lu Changting wonder if he was too frightened, so he didn't dare to come.

...but this possibility is too small, who is Dao Yan?Will he be intimidated?

Lu Changting even believed that Dao Yan was holding back his big move.

However, after chatting with Zhu Di, Lu Changting's trust in Zhu Di became stronger, and he himself gained calmness.No matter what big move Dao Yan was holding back, he didn't have to bother about it.

In the blink of an eye, the winter solstice.

The third son and the servant Xiaoxiao, who had disappeared for many days, just returned to Lu Changting's side.

The third son looked at Ma Sanbao who was occupying the position, and suddenly had a bitter face.

He just went to the barracks to learn some skills, how come his position next to Mr. Lu was squeezed out when he came back?

Lu Changting looked at the third son who was getting darker and thinner in front of him, but looked more vigorous, and suddenly felt that he might not be able to return to the job of serving people as before...

Lu Changting simply listed him and Xiaoxiao as his "bodyguards" by his side.

The third son smiled after hearing the arrangement.

As long as Mr. Lu didn't kick him out of Prince Yan's mansion, it would be fine.

Because of the third son, Lu Changting had to think of Ji Zilan and Tang Yue, so Lu Changting waved his hand and asked them to study and control public opinion.

Ji Zilan is smart and careful, so she should have achieved a lot. As for Tang Yue... let's count it as incidental.

One of these two will do everything.

After arranging all kinds of affairs, it will soon be time for the New Year.

The eunuch brought a gift from Emperor Hongwu to his son, and also a gift from the emperor and prince to Lu Changting.

Of course, it's still a book.

In addition, there are gifts from Qin Wang's mansion.

What is different from previous years is that this year King Zhu of Jin and King Zhu of Zhou both sent gifts.What made Lu Changting even more astonished was that the presents were all for him.

"Should I not deserve the treatment of these two lords?" Lu Changting sat down beside Zhu Di holding the gift list.This gift list is already extraordinarily rich for him alone, an ordinary person.

Zhu Di said: "Anyway, you used to call them third brother and fifth brother. Now you only call the two princes, and you are extremely reluctant to accept gifts. They will be sad if they know."

Lu Changting said lightly: "I never sent it before, so what's the point of sending it now?"

Zhu Di smiled: "I didn't send it back before, that's because no one knew you were with me." When he said this, there was a bit of treachery on the upright and upright King Yan.

Lu Changting: ...

But then Lu Changting shook his head and said, "That's different. I used to call them elder brothers, but fourth brother knows how deep my relationship with them is."

Zhu Di smiled: "Of course I know, they are all inferior to me."

Lu Changting: ...

Why is this person getting thicker?

He has only heard of falling in love and delaying his studies, why hasn't he heard of the one that makes people thick-skinned?

Zhu Di stepped forward, embraced Lu Changting, and stuffed a letter into his arms at the same time.

Lu Changting opened the letter and raised his eyebrows.

Hey, the operation that was supposed to be carried out in Hongwu 19 was really two years ahead of schedule!

……

In December of the 17th year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang took two measures.

One is to order Feng Sheng, the Duke of the Song Dynasty, to monitor Hana's actions in the border passes of Daning, and the other is to order the Ministry of Households to issue more than 180 million ingots from the internal treasury and distribute them to the prefectures and counties north of Beiping, Shandong, Shanxi, and Henan. More than [-] people transported more than one million stones of rice and sent them to Songtingguan, Daning, Huizhou, and Fuyu for military pay.

In this way, the connection between Hanachu and Canyuan was cut off, and a front-line food supply base was established.

……

Lu Changting murmured: "It seems..." It seems that Zhu Di may not have to wait so long before taking the throne.

If there is early preparation, maybe the process of history can be advanced?
