Chapter 107 Leisure and Elegance

It is already spring in the south of the Yangtze River, but the north is still cold.

Scattered spring snow falls from the sky, covering the entire city. Unlike the snow in winter, the snow seems to be about to melt just now, but when the wind blows, it turns into a crystal layer of ice on the ground when the snowflakes are about to melt before they melt.

Then cars, horses, people and animals walked by, and the ice and snow turned into mud.

This is Yanjing and Beiping.

In the Qianmen Arrow Tower, King Yan Zhu Di and his subordinates sat around the stove. On the stove was a first-rate brass pot, which was stewed with wings, crystal clear white meat, honeycomb-like frozen tofu, and sauerkraut churned in the soup.

It is already the spring breeze season, but there is no spring green in the north. However, in the brass pot, pickled cabbage that has been pickled for a winter, and the light yellow leaves are boiled in the copper pot, and they become pleasing green.

King Yan Zhu Di was in the upper hand, holding a golden cup in his hand, looking at the crowds coming and going under the arrow tower, smiling.

He was first given the black-clad monk Daoyan, then a thirty-year-old young man with sharp eyes, and finally the old man with long beards.

The young man was the counselor of the King of Yan, Jin Zhong. The old man was a strange man, a strange man in the world, and Yuan Gong, who had served as a minister.

Everyone, the pot is boiling, while it's hot!

When the soup in the brass pot was boiling, Monk Daoyan smiled and said, "When it's hot, the more fragrant it will be! After that, he picked up a large piece of pork belly, dipped it in garlic, vinegar and other seasonings, swallowed it in one bite, and looked intoxicated.

You are a man from the south and actually love food from the north! Zhu Di joked and said, "A good monk has also learned to eat big pieces of meat and drink big bowls!"

Daoyan kept chopsticks and said with a smile, Your Highness said this is a bad thing. As long as the dishes are delicious, why should you divide them into north and south? When the good dishes enter my stomach, they are all fragrant and fragrant mouths and stinky butts. If the dishes are divided into north and south, wouldn’t the bastards that come out must also be divided into north and south? Besides, the little monks have Buddhas in their hearts, so why should they learn from those fake monks who rely on Buddha to pretend to behave? The world is true, and if it is true, there is the purity of Buddha!

Zhu Di grinned and cursed, "You monk, damn it!" As he said that, he smiled at Jin Zhong, Yuan Gong and the other two. It is still cold in spring. This white meat is the warmest time in the beginning of winter and spring. You two also use more!

The latter two smiled, picked up their chopsticks, and started eating elegantly.

At this time, the personal soldiers downstairs came up with a bowl of freshly steamed blood paste. The red blood paste was placed in a white porcelain bowl, and the soup was faintly flowing. The blood paste was sprinkled with tender green scallions, which made people salivate.

This is good! Zhu Di got up, first served a few confidants, and then filled himself with them. He smiled and said, "This is better than deer blood. The deer blood is too rough and too dry." I ate a few bowls yesterday, but I couldn't stand it and couldn't sleep!"

Daoyan suddenly looked up and said with a smile, Your Highness is so fierce that he can't stand it?

Yuan Gong also said politely, I'm afraid Your Highness is already dry! No matter what blood you eat, it's dry!

Outside, light snow suddenly floated again. Zhu Di wiped off the residual stains from the corner of his mouth and looked at the city under his feet. How could I not be so dry?

As he said that, Zhu Di stood up, walked to the window, stretched out his hand, letting the snowflakes fall, and blended into the patterns in his palm. When he was a young man, I followed the army to fight north and south, and saw all the vast and picturesque beautiful mountains and rivers of the Ming Dynasty. At that time, I thought that good men should have all the seas. From the north to the snow, from the south to the edge of the sea, from the east to the sunset, and from the west to the sunset.

But now, I can only sit in one corner, in the snow and ice, think of the scenic scenery in the south of the Yangtze River, and look at the infinite mountains and rivers!

After saying that, Zhu Di turned his palms and the melted water droplets in his palms slowly fell on the mast, flowing slightly for a few times, then solidified again.

Your Highness was anxious? Daoyan smiled and said, "The king is just a long sea of ​​dragons and sunshine when the clouds clear and the sun is clear, who in the world can stop Your Highness and soar into the sky!"

Unexpectedly, Zhu Di smiled bitterly and said that the child's status in the capital was becoming increasingly stable. I saw that his mind and means were never allowed to be regarded by the child! He won over the court officials and his wings were gradually growing. His literary talent was supported by scholars all over the world, and his military achievements were fulfilled by the generals. Moreover, he was the crown prince established by his father and emperor, and he had the righteousness of the court and the hearts of the people!

What is the use of the people’s hearts? Your Highness has the way of heaven!

Zhu Di turned around, what is the way of heaven?

The right path of heaven and earth, only heroes can control the country. Your Highness has great martial arts. What kind of virtue can the child of Huangkou be? He wants to be the Emperor Taiping, but this Taiping world was shot by His Highness. How can he be the master of his life? How can he be the master and enjoy the success?

The way of heaven is the heart of the people! In the future, as the emperor's uncle, since ancient times, he would not be like a loyal and loyal person like Yue Wumu. In the end, he would have attracted the suspicion of the emperor. The smarter he is, the less he can tolerate you in the future!

Not only can you not tolerate you, but other vassal kings. His reduction of vassal means losing the heart of relatives, contrary to the Hongwu Ancestor system, and against the way of heaven!

Whether it is to reduce the vassals or not, your highness will sooner or later be in disaster. What he fears is the military power, financial power, and regime power in the hands of your kings, etc. What he fears is the great ambitions of your highness.

Speaking of this, Daoyan took a sip of wine and continued to smile. Besides, with his ambition, he really gave up everything in his hand and went to the capital to kneel three times and kowtow nine times every day. Let him take care of it. Is Your Highness willing?

Haha! Zhu Di's eyes were taken back from the window. Those who know me were filial piety!

Your Highness has the power of an emperor, and it is also the way of heaven. If you don’t take the world, you may end up in trouble! Yuan Gong also said that the Emperor’s Holy Dynasty can only be unified for thousands of years in the hands of Your Highness!

Yuan Gong was a strange man. At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, he was famous for his physiognomy. All the people he wanted to see were effective. When he met Daoyan and said that you, the monk, was the arm of the Yuan Dynasty, who helped Liu Bingzhong.

Later, after Daoyan recommended him to enter the palace of the King of Yan. When he saw the generals and officials of the palace were all promising to be the heroes of the Duke and the lords. When he met the Queen of Yan, he said, "Dao, the dragon walks on the tiger's steps, and the sun horns penetrate the sky. It was the Emperor Taiping. At the age of forty, he must pass the navel and ascend to the position of Dabao.

This man was not only a minister, but also did not greedy for power. In the original time and space, after the King of Yan seized the world, he did not want to be a minister, but only received the title of wealth and honor. Later, Zhu Di hesitated to establish the Eastern Palace and asked him to see again.

When Yuan Gong saw Zhu Gaochi, he said that the emperor was the emperor.

When I met Zhu Zhanji, I said, "Long live the emperor."

(It is not written by the author, it contains "Biography of Yuan Gong")

Zhu Di smiled and returned to the table and asked, "What's going on in Suzhou?"

Yuan Gong replied that Lao I had entrusted the Minister of Personnel Zhan Hui to ask him to take care of him. Zhan Hui is the Minister of Personnel. He heard that he was close to the crown prince and would definitely sell him some of his face to give Chen Ying the prosperous land of Suzhou!

Suzhou is close to Jingji, and Chen Ying can be buried near Jingji for the nails buried by Yanfan! Jin Zhong, who had never spoken, spoke, asking him to make friends with local military and guard officials in Suzhou and bribe them. If he could raise the flag, it would be a partial army. If not, Suzhou is a place of wealth and countless wealthy merchants can deliver wealth to the King of Yan!

Or neither is used, let him watch the changes in Suzhou and wait for the Yan King army to open the city when it crosses the river!

Zhu Di pondered for a moment, but he was just a partial master. He didn't know that his distance could not relieve his near thirst! As he said that, he sighed, but unfortunately the yellow dog was dead. Jiang Yan had an ambiguous attitude. My uncle was the only one in the capital. If there was someone in the court, he would get twice the result with half the effort!

The slave of Emperor Jiang Yan's family has an ambiguous act, which is already a death sentence for robbing others! Daoyan smiled and said, now that his shortcomings are in our hands, he can't help but refuse to obey!

As he said that, after eating a few pieces of meat, Daoyan continued to say that the emperor was old and his suspicion became increasingly serious. Those who were concerned were nothing more than the meritorious old ministers in the court, which shows the Lan Yu’s affairs. Since this is the case, why don’t we add more fire? Let Jiang Yan go and vent the old ministers every day to clear them away!

Jin Zhong also smiled and said, "What Daoyan Zhenren said is great good, I heard that the emperor's grandson is quite protective of the old ministers. Those meritorious generals are mostly his in-laws." Let's ignite the fire in private so that the capital will not stop. The emperor's grandson is busy protecting those people, so naturally he has no ability to take care of Peking!"

Let them fall into internal struggle, and we are preparing for the troops and waiting for the opportunity! Daoyan also said seriously, if the crown prince cannot protect him, all the merits will be gone, and no one in the court can lead the troops! Wait until he reduces his vassals and loses the clan's heart. Let's see what he can resist the soldiers from Beiping and Liaodong!

As he said that, he smiled again. The rest of the war is His Highness’s business. We can’t handle the knife or ride the horse!

War? I have never been afraid! Zhu Di smiled proudly and said, "If you really fight, you will quickly take down the entire city of Beiping and conquer Jizhou, Miyun, Huailai, Yongping and other cities."

If the court knew that the king had raised an army, he would do his best to make up his achievements in one battle. At that time, he would leave one person to defend Beiping. The king led a large army outside and attacked both sides to break it. Then, he went south along the canal, first took Jinan, then Xuzhou, and went straight to the natural danger of the Yangtze River, and the troops were facing Yingtian!

If you can't take Jinan, what about Xuzhou? Daoyan suddenly said, Your Highness, the war is in danger and it is impossible to win every battle!

Zhu Di narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a smile, "You monk, but you already have the answer in your heart!"

Daoyan smiled and dipped his finger in wine and said, Your Highness also had an answer in his heart! Why don’t you and I write it out to see if they see the same thing?

OK! Zhu Di smiled, dipped it in wine and started writing.

The two started at the same time and stopped at the same time. They saw a line of big words written on the wine table, and they could win the world!

This battle is not a national war, but a battle between uncle and nephew! I don’t know how many people in the world look at it! Zhu Di gently wiped off his handwriting and said with a smile, as long as the Yingtian is broken, I will enter the Forbidden City and the world will be settled!

The counselor Jin Zhong's eyes were even sharper, and he said, "It's better to be early than late!" He immediately chose generals and soldiers, and recruited heroes.

Daoyan also said that he should practice troops diligently, conquer the Liaodong tribes to serve as military troops, build armies, and wait for the battle!

Zhu Di raised his glass and said proudly, his will was determined and he drank the cup. As he said that, he looked out the window of the arrow tower again, and looked at the picturesque country, who would kill him?
