Chapter 3 Zhu Biao opens the door to a new world
The prince thought about it and did it immediately.
On the bank of Xuanwu Lake, there is a palace. Built near the water. Very simple. There are also some vegetable gardens around the palace. There is also a wheat field, rice field and so on.
Queen Ma was dressed in coarse linen clothes. She stepped on the vegetable patch and her shoes were covered with mud.
Queen Ma has been in poor health these years. He even became critically ill several times. Later, things turned around. But Queen Ma was still very ill. Later, he left the Queen and moved here. Planting land, growing vegetables, and doing ordinary farm wife things made me feel better.
In this world, only life and death are important matters. Queen Ma feels that she is already dead. Just live one day at a time. He rarely cares about outside things.
As a mother, Queen Ma still loves and protects her son.
Seeing Zhu Biao coming over, the first thing he asked was: "Biao'er, how is your health lately?"
Zhu Biao said honestly: "Very good, run around the East Palace twice every day. Don't eat big fish and meat, eat more vegetables. Don't worry, I take it all to heart."
Because Zhu Biao died early in history, what Empress Ma valued most was Zhu Biao's body. Queen Ma looked Zhu Biao up and down and found that Zhu Biao looked very good. Then he nodded with satisfaction and said, "Not bad. What are you doing here today?"
The prince said: "I miss my mother, come and see my mother."
Queen Ma said: "Don't say these things that you don't believe yourself. I know you are busy. I have no shortage of people to serve you here. You must have something to do when you come here. Tell me."
The prince was silent.
Empress Ma understood and asked everyone around her to leave.
Queen Ma said, "You can talk now."
The prince showed a hint of fatigue. Said: "Father may want to destroy me."
Queen Ma frowned and said, "He wants to establish a fourth child?"
The prince was stunned and said, "Father, do you really have this idea?"
The prince was very shocked at this moment.
It is just speculation that the prince feels this way. He did not find Zhu Yuanzhang's actions to support other princes. But Queen Ma blurted out at this moment, which verified the prince's idea. Even specify specific people. That is King Yan.
If someone else said such a thing, the prince would definitely not believe it. But the person who said this was Empress Ma, Zhu Yuanzhang's pillow. This may not be true.
Empress Ma thought to herself, "That's bad. I let the truth slip."
Empress Ma is actually not too interested in the things of later generations. She just watched TV series for a while, but she also knows that computers and mobile phones have more precious uses than for entertainment. Therefore, it will fade over time.
But she cares about her children very much.
I understand Jingnan better.
This is also the knot that is difficult to untie in the hearts of Empress Ma and Zhu Yuanzhang.
Although no one said it, I always thought about it in the dead of night.
In fact, both Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma thought about revealing the future to the prince. After all, he is Zhu Yuanzhang's designated successor. But Zhu Yuanzhang was afraid. I'm afraid that the prince will know this and attack all brothers.
There is no better son than a father.
The prince is a good brother. But he is also a qualified political figure. He has his own methods.
What will be the fate of the prince's lineage in later history. Let the prince think about the Yanwang lineage.
Zhu Yuanzhang is also hard to say.
After all, for Zhu Yuanzhang, no matter which son is his blood. But for the prince, he was almost extinct. It's hard to imagine what kind of decision the prince would make in his heart. When the time comes, brothers will kill each other.
This is not what Zhu Yuanzhang, the old father, wants to see.
That's why I kept delaying telling the prince.
When Empress Ma was thinking about how to round out his words, the Crown Prince said, "Mother, my father truly cares about my fourth brother. How about I ask you to conquer Nanyang?"
There were various complicated expressions on the prince's face, with a look of extreme despair. It's like a dying beast. Queen Ma took one look and her heart softened. Empress Ma sighed and said, "Come on, let me tell you. If I am not wrong, your father has no such intention."
People's hearts are always fleshy, so there is no absolute fairness, and naturally there are distances and distances. King Yan is not Queen Ma’s biological son. It's just in the name. Queen Ma's favorite son is Zhu Biao. And for so many years, Zhu Biao, the prince, brother and son, has done very well.
Queen Ma is more partial.
Empress Ma also knew that the prince would never believe what he said.
Queen Ma said: "What I will say next may be very bizarre, so you don't have to believe it. But you must swear that you will never tell anyone in any form. Otherwise, your mother and I will die immediately."
The prince immediately knelt down and said: "Even if the child is unfilial, he would not dare to make such an oath. It is just a matter of my son and ministers not listening to this matter."
Queen Ma said: "I know you are a filial child. But this matter is of great concern. It would have been impossible to tell you without your father's permission. But sooner or later the world will be yours. You have to let this matter go. I know. It’s just this oath that you must make. As long as you don’t violate it.”
The prince was silent for a long time, and he felt that he had discovered the key to the matter.
It seems that the source of all changes, the change in the father's mind, lies in this secret. But what is the secret? The prince longed to know in his heart. Finally, he couldn't help but swear a poisonous oath.
Queen Ma then whispered to the prince what happened to He Xi six hundred years ago.
The prince jumped up in surprise and said, "This-------"
If the thing in front of me is not my mother. The prince was about to reprimand the nonsense at that time. Even though the words were not spoken, the eyes said everything.
Queen Ma knew that the prince would not believe it. She thought for a while and said, "I have nothing to prove here. There is something I can show you." Then Queen Ma went to the room and took out a wooden box. Take the key and open the lock above.
Then he took out a book.
It was written in Juanxiu's handwriting: "The Story of Yitian Slaying the Dragon."
When the prince saw it, he said: "This is the character of Anqing."
Queen Ma said: "It's the Anqing manuscript. Take a look. Just read it here."
The prince immediately opened it and looked at it, and frowned at first: "Shaolin Temple, the world's martial arts originated from Shaolin. I also practice boxing and kicking, spear and horse. Why haven't I heard such a sentence?" The world's martial arts originated from Shaolin, which was actually formed in the Ming Dynasty. At least in this era, there are warrior monks in Shaolin Temple. But it doesn’t have such a big name yet.
The prince naturally didn't believe it.
I also saw that the writing inside was mysterious and mysterious, including the "Nine Yang Manual" and the chessboard carved on the ground. It was still mysterious enough. It's even more incredible to use a big iron bucket to polish off the chessboard. That's bluestone, not tofu.
However, it looks surprisingly good.
Then he saw a familiar figure, Zhang Sanfeng.
The prince's heart moved, and he thought to himself: "Could it be the biography of the old immortal Zhang? He came from Shaolin, I don't remember it. It seems that he is from Liaodong?"
Only now did I realize that it was a legend.
However, he also has a very special feeling.
It feels like modern people reading the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, an ancient vernacular. I can understand it, but some places feel awkward. There were many writings in it that made the prince keenly feel that they should not be written by contemporary people.
After all, the prince is both civil and military. He studied under Song Lian. There is still some literary attainment in this regard.
When the prince discovered that this was a legend, he started the one-eye-ten-line mode. Suddenly he found a name, and his whole body was shocked. He raised his head and said in disbelief: "Why is there something here??"
Queen Ma would not tell him. The reason why she was so interested in this book was, of course, that the book itself was beautifully written, but more importantly, it was about Zhu Yuanzhang. She likes to use this to make fun of Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang became angry because of shame, but he was helpless. After all, Mr. Jin Yong's poems in later generations seem to be the same as Liu Yong's poems. It is said that wherever there are Chinese people, Jin Yong's poems can be found, and they have also been adapted into TV series and movies.
When Zhu Yuanzhang thought that countless people in later generations would see Zhu Yuanzhang in this image, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
This is also the source of Queen Ma's joy. Even her son will tell this kind of little secret between husband and wife.
Queen Ma said: "When do you think this book was written?"
