"Eldest grandson, you have to hide your ability.
The world's heroes can cross the river, and no one knows where one will pop up.
In your current position, everyone in the world is looking at you.
Therefore, your ability should be hidden.
This ability is just for dealing with Ci'er. If you show it, it won't be that useful.
It has to be hidden to be useful. "
Under the kerosene lamp,
Zhu Yuanzhang took Zhu Xiongying's hand and said tirelessly.
Queen Ma was knitting Zhu Xiongying's new clothes.
He said angrily,
"Chongba, your words make my ears tingle."
Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned.
"Huh? Have we told you before?"
"You are Alzheimer's."
Lao Zhu did say it, but Zhu Xiongying still listened carefully without any impatience.
Being able to make Lao Zhu talk over and over again proves how important this matter is.
If Zhu Xiongying were not the eldest grandson who was loved by all,
After all,
Except for your parents, grandparents, basically no one really wishes you well.
This ability is like dealing with thorns,
If you show too much edge, you will unknowingly hurt the people around you, and you will also suffer countless jealousies.
This is human nature,
To successful strangers, I may offer my sincere blessings,
But for those around you who are successful, you won’t be so sincere.
Lao Zhu has never seen anyone or experienced anything.
Such a beggar emperor, in his later years, condensed all his life's experiences and said this sentence:
You should hide your abilities and don't show off your talents too much.
These are all lessons of blood and tears!
Speechless for a moment,
Queen Ma sighed heavily, her eyes full of gloom.
I don’t know what kind of past events Zhu Yuanzhang’s words reminded Empress Ma of.
Zhu Xiongying guessed in his heart,
Grandma should be thinking of Guo Zixing.
Zhu Yuanzhang gained power at a young age and showed his sharpness. He and Guo Zixing had such a quarrel that even Lao Zhu was almost imprisoned to death.
This must be something that even my grandparents will never forget.
Zhu Yuanzhang slapped his thigh,
Changing the topic,
"Okay! Our eldest grandson is very clever!
Let’s not talk about this anymore!
Let me tell you, what is the situation like in this world? ! "
Zhu Xiongying nodded heavily,
"Grandpa, my grandson wants to hear it!"
With Zhu Xiongying, a top admirer, by his side, Zhu Yuanzhang was coaxed to smile every day.
Zhu Yuanzhang rubbed Zhu Xiongying's hair and said with a smile,
“I won’t talk about this newly opened territory.
Within the territory of the original Ming Dynasty,
From the west of Dongsheng to Ningxia and Hexi,
East of Dongsheng to Datong, Xuanfu and Kaiping,
This is the first line of defense.
With this as the boundary, we all set up government guards. What we thought at that time was to let the third child go out of the fortress to control Taiyuan, and then use the second and fourth children as wings.
This line of defense is determined.
The current situation is to push their third brother northward, and the overall idea remains unchanged. "
Zhu Xiongying was slightly shocked when he heard this.
He really didn't know that the absolute core of the King of Sai created by his grandfather was his third uncle!
But on second thought, it makes sense.
The third uncle is both civil and military, so he is naturally the main force among the kings of Sai.
Zhu Xiongying felt a surge of pride in his heart for no reason.
What a heroic age this is,
People like Fourth Uncle can only be reduced to Third Uncle's foil!
The heroes of the world are really like the prince who crosses the river!
"The second line of defense is the Qingzhou line in Lao Qi's former town. There are dense water networks here.
Lao Qi is in the heart of the entire Ming Dynasty. He can support Lao Er and the others at the top, and can enter the river to control the south of the Yangtze River.
However, now that Lao Qi has gone to Riyue Island, he can form a rivalry with Shou Qian, and his position is better.
This Qingzhou line seems not that important. "
"As for...the third line of defense, it is the line between the capital and Jiangnan.
This is also the place for the entire Ming Dynasty. "
Zhu Yuanzhang tapped his temples with his fingers.
“There’s no need to say more about what’s important here.
so,
Grandson, no matter how big the territory expands in the future, these three lines must be held tightly.
Just hold these three lines,
To put it bluntly, no matter how you lose in the future, you will always have the capital to come back again. "
When Zhu Yuanzhang said this, his eyes burst out and he looked directly into Zhu Xiongying's eyes,
Zhu Xiongying froze on the spot.
Lao Zhu's conception of the three-line defense in Ming Dynasty is so similar to that great man!
Although there are slight differences due to the importance of the region, the overall idea is exactly the same.
Sure enough, the heroes think alike!
Queen Ma nodded silently.
Didn't say anything,
Unless there is a very critical moment, Queen Ma will basically not tell anyone her political opinions.
but,
Few people know how many decisions Empress Ma helped make behind Zhu Yuanzhang's side.
The people of the Qing Dynasty who were revising the history of the Ming Dynasty tried every means to hack her.
In the end, I really couldn’t figure out why it was so dark, and something happened.
The same trick was used for Zhu Yuanzhang. If there was no place to be shady, he would just show a shoehorned face.
It can be seen from the side how great these two elders are, and their public spirit for the country is unquestionable.
After the end of the Qing Dynasty, the slogans of anti-Qing and restoration of the Ming Dynasty never stopped, but no matter how bad the late Ming Dynasty was, it still made people unable to let it go for a long time.
Zhu Yuanzhang did many wrong things and planted many hidden dangers for the Ming Dynasty.
This is undeniable,
However, we cannot use the perspective of modern people to demand perfection from the ancients.
To put it bluntly, putting anyone in Zhu Yuanzhang's situation would
Not to mention doing better than Zhu Yuanzhang, there are only a handful of people who can do almost as well as Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Grandpa, my grandson knows."
Zhu Yuanzhang said a lot of things sincerely, just to tell his eldest grandson,
It is good to expand outward, but we must always remember that the Central Plains is the root of the Ming Dynasty.
You must not abandon the foundation and pursue the end. You are so happy to achieve great results, in order to develop, forget to maintain the success.
Nowadays, all the martial arts heroes have been dazzled by their military exploits, and they only think about fighting external wars and making meritorious deeds.
Lao Zhu was afraid that his eldest grandson would lose his judgment because of this.
There are many things that can tell Zhu Xiongying that he is determined to forge ahead.
But the only people who can tell Zhu Xiongying to be calm and rational when he is in a hot state are his grandfather and grandma.
Good advice is offensive to the ears, and words are unpleasant to listen to.
But Zhu Yuanzhang was still willing to say it, repeatedly, until his eldest grandson could listen.
Seeing that his eldest grandson had listened, Lao Zhu looked happy, looked at Queen Ma and said proudly,
"Hey, sister,
Our eldest grandson is sensible! obedient! "
Queen Ma smiled and said,
added,
"Our eldest grandson listens to good things but doesn't listen to bad things.
Then I'll listen to you no matter what you say,
How can I surpass you? "
Queen Ma choked Zhu Yuanzhang, but Zhu Yuanzhang became even happier.
"Yes! Something is wrong with us. After all, we are getting old and can't keep up with the times.
Grandson, if you think what I say makes sense, just listen more.
If it doesn't make sense, just think of it as grandpa teasing Kezi to relieve his boredom! "
Lao Zhu attaches great importance to this,
He tried every means to make his eldest grandson surpass himself.
Just as Empress Ma said, if Zhu Xiongying blindly obeys, he will only become the second Zhu Yuanzhang.
And there is a high probability that he is not as good as Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma,
The important thing is never that the eldest grandson becomes the second Zhu Yuanzhang.
But the first Zhu Xiongying!
