Henan Road.
Yongcheng County, Guide Prefecture.
Taiqiu Station on the official road outside the city attracted a team of thousands of people early in the morning. The imperial envoy's official badge from the imperial court had already awakened everyone in Taiqiu Station before dawn.
When the sky was bright, bowls of broth noodles with peeled garlic were held in the hands of the Northern Patrol officers and soldiers of the Emperor Taisun.
There were too many people, and Taiqiu Yi could not gather hundreds of tables for thousands of people to dine.
Only those with official status can get a stool.
Only those of sufficient rank can place the noodle bowl on the table and eat noodles with garlic in a calm manner.
Five people, Gao Yangzhi, Bai Yuxiu, Sun Cheng, Niu Dafu, and Tian Mai, were able to sit at the same table with His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun.
On the table, six huge noodle bowls were filled with noodles. Several pieces of braised meat were pressed on the noodles, exuding the unique and alluring aroma of the food.
The six people at the table also had no scruples. They did not use the garlic peeled by Taiqiuyi. Instead, they took the garlic with the garlic skin on, peeled off the garlic skin, and put it into their mouths along with the noodles.
In the entire official road, everyone holding noodle bowls was eating like this, but the table seemed a little quieter, and there was no sound of the officers and soldiers sucking.
The momentum of thousands of people gathering together to suck noodles is quite spectacular.
After Zhu Yunxi finished eating the noodles, he took a sip of noodle soup.
He took out a piece of licorice from a cloth bag at hand and put it into his mouth, chewing it slowly.
This thing is known as the old man of the country and the king of all medicines. It has the effects of warming the middle and replenishing qi, clearing away heat and detoxifying, and harmonizing various medicines. However, it is often used by people because of its sweet and flat taste, which can cure sore throat and relieve bad breath.
The licorice in your mouth exudes a sweet taste, suppressing the unique smell of the garlic noodles.
Zhu Yunxi narrowed his eyes slightly: "The Duke of Liang reported that, counting the time, we will arrive in Yongcheng County today."
Gao Yangzhi had just finished eating the noodles, wiped his mouth, put his palms against the table and took a piece of licorice from Taisun's cloth bag and put it into his mouth. After chewing it twice, he said, "General, please come here. I will give you the opportunity to do so." The general’s distance and marching speed is to reach Yongcheng County today.”
"Then wait for him. Don't let this great-uncle run away alone."
Zhu Yunxi smiled faintly, stood up and walked to a pavilion opposite the official road.
This pavilion should be prepared by Taiqiuyi for people who meet or part ways.
Zhu Yunxi leaned on the railing and looked at the Henan plain where hope had turned yellow, recalling the specific amount of autumn tax in Henan Province this year.
Gao Yangzhi followed him into the pavilion, forgetting to glance at the fertile fields ahead that had been harvested, and said softly: "Your Highness is thinking about the New Deal?"
"Gao Chunfeng, how long do you think the Ming Dynasty can last?" Zhu Yunxi suddenly spoke quietly and asked a question that no one dared to answer.
Gao Yangzhi hesitated for a moment, with a smile on his face: "I am incompetent and do not understand the mysteries of heaven. I am sorry that it is difficult to answer your highness's question. However, I know that if the people are there, the country will be there."
For thousands of years in the Central Plains, all dynasties have risen and fallen in troubled times.
Every time in troubled times, people wander around, drifting with the tide and being swept up by the general trend.
Civil unrest is an excuse, and civil unrest is also a cover-up.
The Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty used the pavilion to grow his body and marry the local gentry and wealthy families. When the Jin Dynasty established a powerful family, it was passed down by Sima. In the Sui Dynasty, he was a member of the Zhuguo State and a family with great military achievements in Guanlong. The Tang Dynasty inherited the Sui Dynasty and became one of the Eight Pillar States. The Emperor of the Song Dynasty holds troops and horses, wearing a yellow robe.
Since ancient times, the world has been in great chaos, and the people have changed into refugees, rebels, and rebels. However, the general trend of the world has always been not achieved by the people.
Throughout the ages, it is undisputed that I, the Ming Dynasty, have won the righteousness of the country!
Since ancient times, I am the only Ming Dynasty. The destiny lies in Li Shu!
I, the Ming Dynasty, have launched the Hongwu New Deal, weeded out the old and brought forth the new, reformed the old and made new ideas, and frequently came up with good strategies. The central government is united, the government is harmonious, and there may be occasional turmoil, but there are also wise kings and good ministers who calm the government.
Today, His Highness asked his ministers how long Guo Zuo was. The officials were ignorant, but they knew clearly that Guo Zuo was all tied to Li Shu. "
There was one sentence that Gao Yang kept in his heart and did not say it out loud.
When it prospers, the people suffer; when it dies, the people also suffer.
Since ancient times, the world has prospered, kings have changed, prosperous dynasties have collapsed, and new dynasties have been born.
However, what is pitiful is that all the books describe those Li common people as the first to be unable to withstand the oppression at the end of the dynasty, and had to launch an uprising, dragging the entire world into troubled times.
But who would mention that the new dynasty was not established by these common people.
Basically, they were just passively dragged into the great battle in those troubled times.
In the end, the world is still the same world, and the people are still the same people.
It's just that the highest position has a different surname.
After tens or hundreds of years, the world will experience another great conflict and chaos.
"The hearts of the people."
Zhu Yunxi sighed, his eyes twinkling: "Perhaps, one day, someone will change everything."
Gao Yangzhi silently glanced sideways, looking at the emperor's grandson who suddenly felt complicated, and frowned slightly.
Does this mean that the Ming Dynasty will be like the previous dynasties, and the country will never continue?
Zhu Yunxi had already turned to look at Gao Yangzhi and smiled slightly: "Read history as a guide. Looking back, no dynasty is repeating the history of the previous dynasty. But the operation of these dynasties from beginning to end is extremely amazing. resemblance.
Twenty-eight years after the founding of our dynasty, we launched the Hongwu New Deal. This move was aimed at the country and would bring success to generations to come. However, how can the people of today know what will happen in the future? "
Gao Yangzhi turned his eyes to think, and said in a low voice: "His Royal Highness said that the people of today do not know what will happen in the future. But what happens today can serve as a lesson for future generations."
Zhu Yunxi nodded: "Because of this, the royal family values classics and history. Emperors Qin, Han, Wu, Tang and Song ancestors all serve as mirrors for today's people. However, I am more willing to believe that it is because of the times that heroes are created."
"oh?"
This was a new question. Gao Yangzhi said "Oh" naturally, with curiosity in his eyes.
"First there was bronze and iron, and the achievements of the six generations of the Qin Dynasty were gathered together before the Qin Emperor became emperor. Then there were stirrups and gunpowder, which were the achievements of the Tang and Song Dynasties for hundreds of years, and only then could Genghis Khan chase thousands of miles to the west."
Zhu Yunxi's eyes flickered.
empire.
Prosperity is never due to the merits of one person, nor is it the merits of a family, but the accumulation of an entire generation.
He took a deep breath: "So, I don't know what the answer will be to the question asked by the Ming Dynasty Zuo today. But I firmly believe that the court must promote the implementation of Hongwu's New Deal!
Central restructuring, local reforms. Improve technology and reorganize armaments.
The people of today do not know what will happen in future generations, but the people of today must pave the way for future generations and do what people of today should do. "
Why is the White Lotus Sect causing chaos in the world now, and Jin Shen even has the idea of introducing troops into the pass.
All are the inevitable results of reforms and restructuring.
These people moved, which just means that these people are afraid.
And these people are afraid, which shows that Hongwu's New Deal is not wrong!
Ta-ta-ta-ta.
On the official road, the sound of hoofbeats was heard.
The officers and soldiers of Jinyiwei and Yulinwei who were resting around Taiqiuyi and preparing to continue their journey north reacted immediately and rushed in groups towards the direction where the sound of horse hooves came from.
Under the pavilion.
Zhu Yunxi and Gao Yangzhi turned around and looked over.
The cavalry team, which never numbered more than a hundred people, was led by a huge Liang-character flag, followed closely by several military flags.
The team has arrived in front of Taiqiu Station.
Before seeing him, everyone could hear Liang Guogong Lan Yu's heroic voice from a distance.
"Your Highness."
"Your Highness Taisun."
"Here comes my lord!"
Lan Yu's distinctive laughter penetrated everyone's ears.
Zhu Yunxi turned his head and glanced at Gao Yangzhi, both of them had helpless expressions on their faces.
Wanton publicity, heroic and arrogant, this is the Ming Dynasty
The unique characteristics of Liang Guogong.
Just like him in the military formation, he is the first to bear the brunt of the attack, is decisive and decisive, has the courage to rush into the battle to kill the enemy, and has the invincible majestic characteristics.
"Let's go and see my great-uncle, the Duke of Guo."
Zhu Yunxi smiled happily, said something to Gao Yangzhi, and then walked towards Lan Yu who had rushed from the team to the front, revealing his true appearance.
He is very satisfied with the current situation where Lan Yu has been placed outside the capital.
Sapphire is an extremely sharp knife, and it must not be hidden in the scabbard or placed in the Yingtian City of the capital.
He should do what a sword should do, lead military horses loyal to the royal family, sit outside, or go on an expedition.
Only in this way can his value be maximized.
Lan Yu sat majestically on the horse, holding the reins with one hand and pressing the handle of the knife at her waist with the other, her eyes constantly scanning the crowd in front of Taiqiu Post.
Finally, he spotted His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun walking from the pavilion.
Lan Yu's face suddenly became happy and showed a bright smile.
He lifted the reins slightly and made the taller and stronger horse stop. Immediately, under the gaze of everyone, Lan Yu turned over and dismounted, landing firmly on the ground with her feet in a majestic posture that could make a lot of young ladies faint by the Qinhuai River.
As soon as she regained her footing, Lan Yu immediately picked up her steps.
The officers and soldiers of Jinyi Guard and Yulin Guard who were blocking his eyes immediately stepped back to get out of the way.
This Duke of Liang is not someone who can be provoked by others.
Even the meritorious generals in the imperial court must be respectful in front of this prince.
Even those princes and uncles, if they really made the prince angry, they would scold him at best, or beat him up directly at worst.
Even though the Yulin Guards present were the emperor's personal soldiers, and the Jinyi Guards had the duty of guarding all the officials in the court, they were still afraid of retreating too slowly when faced with Lan Yu, the duke of Liang who was walking towards them.
Soon, a very spacious passage opened between Zhu Yunxi and Lan Yu.
Zhu Yunxi stepped forward with a smile on his face.
Lan Yu walked very fast, and every step was impressive.
There were only a few steps left between the two.
Zhu Yunxi was the first to speak: "Dong Liang led his team to rush there, and worked hard..."
Before he finished speaking, Lan Yu was already wrapped in a gust of wind and arrived in front of him.
Zhu Yunxi swore.
My great-uncle walked not only with the wind, but also with sand and dust hitting his face.
"Welcoming ministers, please see His Royal Highness the Grandson of the Imperial Palace!"
The smile on Lan Yu's face faded, and she stopped when she was three steps away from Zhu Yunxi. She held her hands together with a bang, and then with a clang, she landed on one knee.
The Yin Hong cloak behind him had not yet reacted, lagging behind him, slowly fluttering in mid-air and falling to the ground.
And Lan Yu's powerful voice sounded again: "His Royal Highness, the Emperor's Grandson, is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old!"
Is Duke Liang a flatterer?
Asked this question and asked every one of the millions of Ming soldiers, the answer they got was negative.
So, that's why.
When Lan Yu knelt down and worshiped in front of Zhu Yunxi, shouting that she would live a thousand years later.
The faces of the surrounding Jinyi Guards and Yulin Guards officers and soldiers showed a hint of surprise and surprise.
Duke Liang is so surrendered to His Highness the Emperor Taisun.
Zhu Yunxi hurriedly stepped forward, holding Lan Yu's folded arms with both hands: "Dong Liang, get up quickly!"
However, Lan Yu exerted a little more force, and her face became more serious: "Your Highness is a rich man, and the ministers eat the king's salary. The etiquette and rules cannot be abolished, and the decency cannot be abolished. Please don't shame the minor ministers, and don't make the minor ministers ashamed." Suicide."
Zhu Yunxi raised his eyebrows.
Who told Lan Yu to say this?
Feigning doubts in his heart, Zhu Yunxi had already let go of his hand, straightened up and took a step back, looking at still quietly with his eyes.
However, Liang Guogong Lan Yu kneeled in front of him with his head lowered and his fists clasped.
He coughed lightly and said, "Get up."
Lan Yu said solemnly: "Thank you, Your Highness."
After saying that, Lan Yu stood up and looked up at Zhu Yunxi in front of him with a smile.
He looked at the confusion in Zhu Yunxi's eyes, but first turned his head and scanned the surrounding officers and soldiers, his face darkened, and he waved his arm lightly.
"Everyone, stand down! I want to challenge His Highness!"
Clattering.
The officers and soldiers of Jinyi Guard and Yulin Guard who were present all hid their panic in their hearts and quickly dispersed.
Duke Liang just said that rules cannot be abolished.
This man knelt down respectfully in front of His Highness. If people like me dare to disobey the rules, I am afraid that we will die today.
The soldiers and horses who came with Lan Yu had already gone to Taiqiuyi in search of food.
Lan Yu looked at Gao Yangzhi who was standing next to Zhu Yunxi again.
He just frowned, but he recognized the jade medal of happiness, wealth, longevity and warmth hanging on Gao Yangzhi's waist, which was rumored to be only awarded to cabinet ministers.
This guy is the rumored youngest cabinet minister, Chunfeng Gaoyangzhi.
Lan Yu's thoughts turned around, and she bared her teeth and smiled at Zhu Yunxi: "Your Highness, how was your performance just now?"
Damn it!
Has Sapphire transitioned?
Zhu Yunxi blinked and seriously recognized that the person standing in front of him was Lan Yu, Duke of Liang Kingdom of the Ming Dynasty. He couldn't help but sneered: "Why is my uncle in such a posture today?"
Lan Yu coughed lightly, raised her head and looked sideways at the officers and soldiers who were arranging their equipment beside the official road: "I have been reading recently, and I am reading a collection of classics and history. I am stupid, and I only know one rule after reading."
"oh?"
Even Zhu Yunxi's curiosity was immediately aroused.
Lan Yu has started reading?
The Duke of Liang in the Ming Dynasty, who could be described as arrogant and domineering, actually started studying?
This is simply the most ridiculous thing in the world.
But the serious look on Lan Yu's playful face made Zhu Yunxi have no choice but to believe it.
Lan Yu really started to read.
Gao Yangzhi, who was standing beside him, smiled and whispered: "The Duke's reading, the rules he talked about, and the behavior he did in front of His Highness today, must have meant something, right?"
