"Hahaha!"
"Biao'er is really flattering us today!"
"Even the top scholar in martial arts was knocked down by him with three punches and two kicks. Let's ask which prince of the founding emperor in history has been better than him?"
"We even think that our son has the status of an emperor, and his future achievements may even surpass mine!"
At night, Ciqing Palace.
Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang dancing like a child, Empress Ma smiled helplessly.
"It is indeed a good thing that my son is excellent, but it is still a bit unsafe to wield swords and guns all day long."
"What if I hurt myself?"
"Besides, he is only sixteen years old. It would not be good for you to let him contact the army so early!" Queen Ma said while picking up the soles of her shoes.
"What's wrong!"
"Are you still afraid that he won't be able to imitate Tang Taizong Li Shimin?" Zhu Yuanzhang said with a chuckle.
"I still know my son, I definitely won't do it!"
"But I'm afraid that he is too young and if he is bewitched by someone...!" Queen Ma said worriedly.
"Don't worry, sister!"
"We have our own sense of proportion!"
"There's another reason."
"We have read a lot of history books and found that if the emperor cannot directly control the army, there will be big problems. Although Biao'er is not very old now, we want him to firmly hold part of the military power first. This is also a warning to him. Those younger brothers, don’t think of anything else.”
Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang talking about such a sensitive topic, Queen Ma couldn't help but sigh.
Since ancient times, there have been many ruthless people in the royal family, and she cannot manage so many things in the family as a woman. However, she treats her sons, even the fourth and fifth children who are not her own children, equally and tries her best to let them learn well.
She only hopes that her husband and sons can truly live in harmony among brothers, a loving father and a filial son, so that she can rest in peace even if she dies.
East Palace.
In a small courtyard.
Tieniu and Sun Yuan sat opposite each other, feeling a little embarrassed for each other.
Sun Yuan felt that he had robbed Tieniu of the top spot in martial arts. If Tieniu hadn't fainted, to be honest, the top spot in martial arts wouldn't have been his turn.
Tieniu felt a little guilty because he suddenly went crazy and almost slapped Sun Yuan to death.
When the two of them didn't know what to say, Zhu Biao walked in with a group of people.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince!" The two quickly stood up and saluted.
"Let me introduce to you, this is Zhu Qi, Jin Yiwei Qianhu!"
"You should know these two, Tieniu and Sun Yuan!"
Zhu Biao turned around and introduced Zhu Qi, and said with a smile: "You three are almost my team now. I will do a big thing soon, and I still have to rely on you."
The three of them couldn't help but feel happy when they heard this, especially Tieniu and Sun Yuan. They obviously didn't expect that Zhu Biao would rely on them so much.
"Let's all sit down and talk!"
Zhu Biao waved his hand and asked the three of them to sit down, and then continued: "I have a personal guard of 800 people outside the city. These people will be handed over to Commander Tieniu."
"First I will give you a deputy Qianhu Dangdang from the fifth rank. If you make meritorious deeds in the future, you will be promoted."
Seeing that Tieniu wanted to stand up and salute, Zhu Biao quickly waved his hand and looked at Sun Yuan.
This guy sounds a bit miraculous. He looks exactly like the well-known actor Sun Dasheng in his previous life. Moreover, his family also comes from a family of monkey opera performers, and their ancestors have performed monkey opera for several generations.
People like them who come from martial arts backgrounds usually have martial arts skills at their side.
The Sun Yuan family is no exception. Their ancestors passed down a set of boxing techniques and a set of footwork. In Zhu Biao's opinion, these two sets of kung fu are just ordinary stuff.
But there is no way, who makes this great sage a real martial arts genius!
He started practicing martial arts at the age of eight, successfully entered Jin at the age of twelve, and became a master of Rongjin at the age of twenty-three. Last year, thanks to the recovery of spiritual energy, he finally advanced to become a master of Huajin.
Relying on only a set of third-rate martial arts that can be seen everywhere in the world, he was trained to become the master of Huajin. He was considered the best in terms of talent and hard work.
"Like Tieniu, you also need to be a deputy Qianhu first."
Zhu Biao said: "But your mission is different from his. In the near future, I want to establish a new force called Qishi Mansion to recruit strange people from all over the world for future use by the court. How about you do this?"
This matter was inspired by Chang Tongyu and Tieniu. The Ming Dynasty has a population of hundreds of millions. With such a large population, there must be lucky people like Chang Tongyu under the revival of spiritual energy. If such people can be collected, For his own use, it will definitely be a great help to the imperial court.
Sun Yuan was delighted when he heard this. This was what he was best at.
If Zhu Biao asks him to lead troops, he is really afraid of not doing well, but if it comes to being a gangster, then this is his old profession.
He traveled extensively with his father since he was a child, and has come into contact with countless people in the world. He has a deep understanding of the rules, routines, and code words of all kinds of people in the world.
Moreover, his ancestors were monkey performers. Monkey opera belongs to the lower class and has its own operating system that is unknown to outsiders.
Shadow puppet performers, monkey performers, storytellers, singers, street vendors, martial artists, and all other inconspicuous and low-level industries are included in this system.
Everyone relies on some code words and rules that have been passed down from generation to generation and are not humane to outsiders to stay together and survive in this world. If he really follows the order of His Highness the Crown Prince and enters the world to establish power, then this system may become his part. Help.
"It's not easy to recruit people with special skills. Most of these people are very arrogant."
"Your Highness, I have to say something disrespectful. Even if you invite me in the capacity of the imperial court, I'm afraid you won't be able to attract many people, and it may even be counterproductive. After all, the image of the imperial court in the world has never been very positive, let alone those who What a strange person."
Seeing that Zhu Biao's expression was as usual and not unhappy, Sun Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "I think it's better to hide the imperial background of Qishi Mansion and only work on this Qi character."
"How do you say it?" Zhu Biao asked with great interest.
"For example, eliminate some gangs that are full of evil but powerful."
"Or maybe release some news that is extremely secretive to Jianghu people, but extremely exciting."
"In short, it is to make the name of Qishi Mansion known to everyone in the world, and at the same time to maintain a sense of mystery, so that everyone knows that there is such a powerful force in the world, but how can it not be found? No trace."
"Then I will send invitations to some strange people individually...!"
Zhu Biao: "...!"
"Isn't this just a way to improve your skills?"
"Your ideas are all good!"
"I will ask Zhu Qi to cooperate with you and transfer a group of people from Jinyiwei to you."
"Work hard, Qishi Mansion will be of great use to me in the future!" Zhu Biao said seriously.
"Yes!" Sun Yuan couldn't help but get excited again.
This is definitely the biggest opportunity in his life. As long as he can grasp it, he and even his entire family will be completely transformed in the future.
Zhu Biao was also very satisfied.
Originally it was just some preliminary attempts on his whim, but unexpectedly this Sun Yuan gave him a big surprise.
This guy is definitely a talent that can be put to great use.
