Seeing that Lan Yu was about to bow down, Zhu Xiongying quickly stopped him.
Just kidding, I just hit you before and your back was all bloody.
It's probably just a scab now. If you move too much, it might burst.
I came here to visit you, but my wound was opened. Wasn't that because I had good intentions and did something bad?
"Uncle, I came to see you originally. If the wound becomes serious after you act like this, it will be my fault!" Zhu Xiongying said with a smile.
"Haha, Your Highness, it's okay, our health is very good!"
"It's just such a small injury, even if it hits us thirty more times, we'll still be alive and kicking!" Lan Yu said with a smile.
"Hahaha, they say that uncle, you are a good fighter, but let me see, your mouth is tougher than your fists!" Zhu Xiongying teased.
"Hahaha!" Lan Yu laughed again.
"Your Highness, the words you just said really speak to our hearts!"
"Like His Highness, we also despise those who rest on their laurels the most. All of them have no ability and can only do nothing!"
"We are different. Even if we are the Duke of the country now, we will never relax our subordinates and our son's training!"
"If any of them dares to be lazy and become a waste in the future, we will ask for it and have our title revoked!" Lan Yu said proudly.
"Okay, okay, my uncle's words make you feel good!" Zhu Xiongying praised,
"Such rhetoric should be said by our nobles of the Ming Dynasty!"
"Such a person is worthy of being said to someone who came from the mountains of corpses and sea of blood at the end of the Yuan Dynasty!"
"Uncle, if you don't say anything else, just say these words to your uncle. We admire your uncle!"
"Hahaha, that's right!" Lan Yu laughed.
"Okay, let's go, uncle, your body still needs a good rest!" Zhu Xiongying said, and wanted to take Lan Yu away from here.
This guy Lan Yu is arrogant, but he speaks carelessly, saying what he wants without too much restraint.
This made Zhu Xiongying and Lan Yu feel much more comfortable getting along with each other.
"Well, that's okay!" Lan Yu said,
"Come on, Your Highness, let's go back and let these brats continue to train here!"
"Haha, okay!" Zhu Xiongying said, then turned to them and said,
"You guys keep training!"
"Yes, Your Highness!" After saying that, they still stood there without moving.
"Huh?" Zhu Xiongying's face changed slightly, he looked at Lan Yu and said,
"Uncle, I seem to have heard a rumor before!"
"Your Highness, what is this rumor?" Lan Yu asked curiously.
"It seems that once, the emperor was in front of the army, and his imperial edict was not as effective as my uncle's military order!"
"They don't need to listen to anything the imperial edict says. Only your old man's military orders are the only ones they need to obey. Is that right?"
"Ah? This... no way!" Lan Yu thought for a moment and did not expect this situation.
"Those soldiers, they believe that these are His Majesty's orders all the time!" Lan Yu asked doubtfully.
"Oh, those soldiers are like that, but what about your soldiers?" Zhu Xiongying asked.
"Ah? This..." At this time, Lan Yu didn't know what to say.
"Haha, I don't know what they think of Grandpa Huang's imperial edict, but today I have realized that your military orders are indeed more effective than my orders!"
"Your Highness!" As he said this, Lan Yu's expression changed a little.
If Lan Yu didn't react, now Lan Yu knew that Zhu Xiongying was unhappy, but Lan Yu hadn't fully understood the joints inside.
His political attributes are very poor, and he is indeed loyal to Zhu Xiongying and Lao Zhu.
He himself would not rebel under any circumstances. In his impression, as long as he leads the troops well, and the soldiers obey his orders, and the military orders are as strong as the mountain, then they will be more brave when fighting.
But I listen to your majesty and my grandson, and the soldiers listen to me, that's all.
but···
"Do you think the army of the Ming Dynasty belongs to the emperor of the Ming Dynasty or the generals of the Ming Dynasty?" Zhu Xiongying asked directly.
"Of course it belongs to His Majesty!" Lan Yu said directly.
"Well, the army that belongs to the emperor doesn't listen to the emperor anymore, so what's the use of such an army?"
"Leave them to rebel?" Zhu Xiongying said coldly.
"Your Highness..."
"Your Highness, forgive me!" Lan Ying and the others all knelt down.
"That's all, let's get up first!" Zhu Xiongying said.
"Gu is not an ignorant person!"
"As a soldier, he is almost as good as his own son. He is the most trustworthy person on the battlefield!"
"You can completely entrust your life to them!"
"Such a loyal person is almost as good as a dead soldier. I wouldn't be surprised to have such a reaction!"
"Moreover, these people are not so much the Ming Dynasty's army as they are your domestic slaves and cronies!"
"Your Highness, the general will dismiss them immediately!" No matter how stupid Lan Yu is, he knows that the matter is serious, and His Highness is unhappy.
"No need!" Zhu Xiongying shook his head and said,
“As long as it’s controlled within a certain amount!”
"I will go back later and I will reform these!"
"In addition, since they are soldiers, they are also protecting the Duke of the country and fighting for our Ming Dynasty!"
"In this case, let me give you a reward. You can use my Ming Dynasty's armor when fighting!"
"But from now on, don't serve in the military!"
"The army is Ming's army, and the soldiers are your own soldiers!"
"You can take it with you if you want to fight, but if you don't want to fight, forget it!"
"Lan Chun, does he have a position in the army? Let him go home in the future!" Zhu Xiongying said.
"Yes, Your Highness!" Lan Chun said nothing, but Lan Yu directly agreed.
"Whatever His Highness says, we will do it!"
"Well, later on, when you learn the military rules and remember your identity, it won't be too late!"
Zhu Xiongying said calmly.
"Yes, Your Highness!" Lan Yu didn't have any resentment at all. It was impossible to be unhappy, but it was good to be able to listen to Zhu Xiongying's words like this.
"Well, I hope my uncle will remember this in the future. It doesn't matter if the number of your own soldiers is small."
"But in the military, don't let this happen, where you accept military orders instead of imperial edicts!"
"In that case, what else do you want this emperor to do?"
"Throughout the ages, such generals will never end well!"
"Yes, Your Highness!" As he said this, Lan Yu broke into a cold sweat.
"Okay, let's go. I'm here to see you today. I just want to see you, my uncle. By the way, I want to tell you something!" Zhu Xiongying said.
"Yes, please, Your Highness!" Lan Yu was much more obedient at this time, leading the way for Zhu Xiongying.
As for Zhu Xiongying, he was also observing his system in his mind as he left.
The current national luck value, well, it is already 1937 points more.
In this way, you can also redeem some things.
Zhu Xiongying started searching directly for basic salt-drying technology.
Now the capital of the Ming Dynasty is still Yingtianfu, which is not very far from the seaside.
Moreover, water transportation is developed, and Zhu Xiongying wants to use the technology of drying salt to cooperate with Lan Yu.
At present, the series of reforms Zhu Xiongying wants to make will require a lot of money.
Salt is one of the most profitable and profitable industries in ancient times. How many private salt dealers have there been throughout the ages?
Now, the salt industry is still under the control of the imperial court, but Zhu Xiongying is currently short of money.
Coupled with his status as grandson, it doesn't matter if he starts with this, he just sells salt to the court.
This is not considered poaching the imperial court. When the time comes, the imperial court will just reunify and sell...
