First Prince of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 118 Contradictions

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately put his arms around the queen's shoulders: "Our son is sensible! There is no need to learn a lesson, but because of the hard work, we have told you about the immigrant from Shanxi. deal with this."

Empress Ma immediately realized how difficult this matter was, "Chongba, the matter is very important, do you really intend to let Biaoer go?"

Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile: "Since the birth of Biao'er, we have never let him suffer. As you said, Biao'er is a bit too smooth. But we ourselves were born in bitter water, so we don't want our children to suffer. But Biao'er's identity is different from other brothers, and he will take over our family business in the future, and it is better to suffer a little under our noses now than to be wronged after we close our eyes."

Empress Ma looked at the smiling husband, the two of them hadn't talked so closely for a long time: "It's rare that you told me so much today, aren't you afraid that my harem will meddle in politics?"

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and said: "We are worried about my sister, but we just want to set rules so that our children and grandchildren will not be soft-headed, and if the chaos of Wu Zhou resumes, our children and grandchildren will be slaughtered."

Empress Ma didn't say anything either, she naturally knew what Wu Zetian had done, and she was not interested in court affairs at all, when Zhu Biao had a child, she could enjoy family happiness.

Zhu Yuanzhang was afraid that his wife would be worried about his son: "Biaoer is going here, we plan to let him take away all the talents selected by the imperial examination, so that we can also cultivate some wings for Biaoer."

"These people will become the mainstay of the court in ten or twenty years, and they can just assist Biao'er. Now take this opportunity to sharpen them and see how good they are. If they are all bookworms, they will not be able to govern the country. "

Empress Ma thought for a while and asked: "The matter of emigration is complicated, and Biao'er is young, what should I do if I make a mistake?

Zhu Yuanzhang squinted his eyes and said: "Biao'er is only so big, if something happens, someone must be cheating, and then just find some corrupt officials in a few places and behead him.

Empress Ma pushed him when she heard her husband's arrangement, "My son is wrong, you don't want to discipline him, why do you want to cover it up for him!

Zhu Yuanzhang said slowly: "We believe that our son can do a good job, and he also has this ability. If there are some complaints from the people, we don't care, and the ministers in the court understand that no one can do this job. Our prince's shoes are stained I am not afraid of a little mud, but whoever dares to splash mud on him will be courting death!"

Empress Ma saw her husband's serious murderous intentions, and knew that he was determined, so she changed the subject and asked, "What should I do about the marriage of Biaoer? Should it be advanced or postponed?"

Zhu Yuanzhang remembered that his son was going to marry the princess, and said happily: "We have ordered the Ministry of Rites to advance the wedding, but we must find a good day."

Empress Ma nodded and said, "It would be even better if Biao'er could have an heir as soon as possible."

Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly thought that it would be even better if he had a grandson, and the prince would not be too young by then, so he could take over the government affairs. He is in charge of the general direction, leaving the rest to his son, and he will train his grandson well, so that Daming's family business can be passed on in a safe and stable manner.

The husband and wife couldn't help but be happy, and the two of them became warmer, and Zhu Yuanzhang had to spend his energy all day on handling the government affairs of the world, so he was a little irritable when dealing with things. When Empress Ma saw him, she couldn't help but tell him to tell him to kill less people. Zhu Yuanzhang was tired every day and didn't bother to quarrel with his wife, so he just went to those concubines.

Those women were naturally submissive in looking forward to Lao Zhu, and they dared not interfere with Zhu Yuanzhang's will, so the couple hadn't spoken together for a while...

Now Zhu Biao's responsibility made Zhu Yuanzhang feel a lot more at ease. He climbed out from the bottom and overthrew countless heroes, so he knows how many capable people there are in this world.

What worries him the most since he ascended the throne is that if one day he dies suddenly, the children are still young, and those arrogant soldiers will let themselves go after the founding of the country. If there is no deterrence from him, his son will have a chance Will you inherit the family business?

That's why he let Zhu Biao get in touch with government affairs very early, and let him make the feat of recovering Yanyun and destroying Beiyuan, just in case.

Empress Ma leaned on her husband's shoulder. She knew how much pressure her husband was under. After a while, Empress Ma asked Zhu Yuanzhang to lie down and said, "You are tired too. I heard that you take a rest very late every day. How can your body recover after such a long time, sleep for a while, I will ask someone to cook some meals, and I will call you later."

Zhu Yuanzhang let out a deep breath after lying down, and slowly closed his eyes, but he still held his wife's hand tightly in his hand. Empress Ma didn't struggle, and pitifully touched her husband with the other hand sideburns.

She said softly: "Chongba, you are in your prime but you already have a few strands of gray hair, don't worry so much, children and grandchildren are blessed with children and grandchildren."

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't open his eyes and didn't speak. There was a smile on the corner of his mouth, feeling the calluses in his wife's hands, which were worn out for sewing clothes for him and the general's adopted sons.

………………………………

Zhu Biao went all the way back to the East Palace, and he didn't even think that his father could really hand over this matter to him quickly. Thinking of the unconcealable smile in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes just now, Zhu Biao felt inexplicably sad.

My father is the pinnacle of the minority under the social and economic background of a small peasant in China, he is a genius. Born in poverty, begging for food as a young man, he became the king of Wu from a young officer, and he was always accompanied by hunger, war, conspiracy, betrayal, and massacre during the period.

But he didn't immerse himself in it, but studied hard, eagerly asking everyone for the knowledge of governing the country.

This is a quality that many generals and even emperors born at the bottom do not possess, and it is also the most essential difference between him and Chen Sheng, Wu Guang, and Li Zicheng.

In fact, Zhu Biao felt that his father might have some psychological problems, a bit like persecution paranoia, or nervous anxiety.

He has experienced too many plots and betrayals. After becoming the emperor, those old brothers also began to keep a distance from him. This made Zhu Yuanzhang feel very insecure, as if he was isolated by the children in his hometown, and everyone began to do things for him. .

For the sake of his career as an emperor, he can tolerate everything. After establishing the empire, for the "eternal existence" of the empire, he cares about everything and eliminates all doubts.

He is always worried that civil servants will betray, military generals may take away everything that belongs to him, and he is forcing himself all the time. He has no pursuit of pleasure at all, and female sex is just a means for him to vent his emotions. When they are together, Zhu Yuanzhang will look more relaxed.

……………………………

After reading a lot of information, I feel that Zhu Yuanzhang in history may have a real psychological problem, especially after the death of Queen Ma and Zhu Biao
