Demarcate pastoral areas and grant rewards to different tribes, allowing them to stay in their own pastoral areas.
If you go to other people's pastoral areas, you will naturally be opposed by other tribes.
There is no need for Ming Dynasty to send troops, they have to fight internally first.
Once a nomadic tribe, they have become a settled people. Are they still scary?
When the Ming Dynasty sent out troops for expedition, could they still escape?
Moreover, this is a conspiracy.
Even if they see it, they can't refuse.
There were always disputes on the grassland.
The pastoral area itself can be used to kill three soldiers with two peaches!
When the Ming Dynasty came forward to divide pastoral areas, the powerful tribes were naturally reluctant.
But the weak tribes can't get it.
They must be on the side of Ming Dynasty and support Ming Dynasty.
It's like having a natural ally.
Coupled with the suppression of the Ming Dynasty's army, the powerful tribes were suppressed, and naturally they all had to submit.
At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang thought of a lot.
I originally thought that it would take many years of hard work to pacify Beiyuan and completely solve the hidden dangers of the grassland.
But if Zhu Yunzhen's strategy is followed, it won't take many years to solve the problem.
And it’s done once and for all, with no future troubles.
The divided pastoral areas were passed down from generation to generation, becoming more and more separated from each other. There was no longer any possibility of reunification of the grasslands, and they could only obey the orders of the Ming Dynasty.
Not only will the border troubles be eliminated forever, but the entire grassland will truly be included in the territory of the Ming Dynasty.
How did Zhu Yunzhen, a child, come up with such a clever strategy?
Zhu Yuanzhang's expression changed again and again, and even his breathing became heavier.
Looking at Zhu Yunzhen in his arms, he was a little unbelievable.
Is this really an idea that a seven-year-old could come up with?
Born to know, how wise is it almost like a demon?
Why didn't you notice it before?
Zhu Yunxuan obviously also noticed Lao Zhu's gaffe.
I thought to myself: "Could it be that I have said too much? Is it a bit inappropriate for a child?"
He quickly said: "Grandpa Huang, what's wrong?"
Zhu Yuanzhang came back to his senses and regained his composure in an instant.
"Xi'er, are you finished?"
"Yes." Zhu Yunxuan nodded, his face seemed a little embarrassed and said: "Grandpa Huang, these are all my own humble opinions. If there is something wrong, don't blame Grandpa Huang."
After all, Zhu Yuanzhang was used to seeing strong winds and waves. After a brief shock, he calmed down completely and was thinking about how to implement what Zhu Yunxu said. On the surface, he still couldn't tell the depth.
He shook his head with a smile, touched the back of Zhu Yunxi's head, and said, "No, Xuer, you said it very well. There are many things that even Grandpa Huang did not expect."
"Really?" Zhu Yunzhen controlled his expression and looked proud.
"Really, Grandpa Huang never lies to others." Zhu Yuanzhang laughed.
"So, does Fu'er grow up a little?"
"Grow up! Grow up! Hahaha..." Zhu Yuanzhang laughed loudly, as if the haze had been swept away.
"Xi'er." Zhu Yuanzhang took off a jade pendant from his waist and said, "This is given to you by Grandpa Huang. If you have any ideas in the future, just tell Grandpa Huang boldly. Even if you are wrong, Grandpa Huang will not I’ll blame you!”
"Thank you, Grandpa Huang." Zhu Yunxi reached out and took the jade pendant. As soon as he touched it, he felt a cool feeling, which was refreshing.
He held the jade pendant in his two small hands and looked at it carefully.
The jade pendant is not big, pure white and crystal clear.
It is only half the size of a palm and is a hollow circle.
The jade pendant was carved by craftsmen into a lifelike dragon.
Touching the jade pendant is like touching an entrenched dragon.
This thing is definitely not simple.
The more Zhu Yunzhen watched it, the more he liked it, but he still had to be reserved.
"Grandpa Huang, this... this is too valuable, I can't have it."
"Take it for you!" Zhu Yuanzhang deliberately glared and said, "We are giving this to my grandson, what are we afraid of!"
"I know." Zhu Yunxi whispered.
"Well," Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction and said, "Do you like it?"
"like."
Zhu Yuanzhang's expression softened a little, and he said with a smile: "Zhen'er, Grandpa Huang has assigned you a task. If you can complete it, Grandpa Huang will give you other gifts, how about it?"
Zhu Yunzhen's heart moved slightly and asked: "Grandpa Huang, what is the mission?"
Zhu Yuanzhang said happily: "Just now, didn't you tell Grandpa Huang about that...that...sweet potato? Yes, sweet potato!"
"Grandpa Huang wants you to find sweet potatoes, can you do it?"
Zhu Yuanzhang's tone seemed to be coaxing a child, but Zhu Yunxuan vaguely felt that there seemed to be something else in Lao Zhu's words.
However, when it comes to finding sweet potatoes...
"Grandpa Huang, I just heard about the sweet potato. It's a bit difficult to find it."
"Besides, that thing is overseas, and you have to send a ship out to sea to find it."
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said: "That's not necessarily true. Maybe some merchants will bring it?"
"Just think of it as Grandpa Huang's test for you. Even if you can't find the sweet potato, you still have to find the source of the news, that merchant."
"I understand, Grandpa Huang, Xi'er will do your best."
Zhu Yunxuan secretly complained in his heart, where is the source of the news?
All this was only known to him later in life.
Zhu Yunzhen blamed himself for talking too much, but he was causing trouble for himself.
However, Lao Zhu's attitude is very subtle.
Asking a seven-year-old child to do this, it seems that he must have other plans.
As for where to find sweet potatoes?
Just take your time. There are people from Nanjing coming from across the ocean. Maybe they brought sweet potatoes as Lao Zhu said.
It's getting late.
Overall, today’s harvest was pretty good.
At least it has made Lao Zhu change his views on certain people or things to a certain extent, so it is not in vain.
Moreover, we also know his attitude towards his cheap fourth uncle Zhu Di.
After bidding farewell to Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yunxuan walked out of the garden alone.
Not far away, he saw a young eunuch walking towards him.
He didn't care.
When the eunuch saw the emperor's grandson coming, he hurriedly bowed and bowed, and Zhu Yunzhen walked over.
Unexpectedly, when he walked to the side, he heard the young eunuch whisper: "The fourth emperor's grandson, His Highness King Yan has invited you."
oh?
Cheap Fourth Uncle?
Zhu Yunzhen's pupils shrank slightly.
Could it be that Zhu Di invited himself over at this time to establish the crown prince?
To see or not to see?
The elders invite the invitation, but the younger generation seems to find it difficult to refuse.
"Lead the way!" Zhu Yunzhen said calmly.
…
Following the little eunuch, he finally saw Zhu Di in a remote part of the garden.
Here is a pavilion. In the middle of the pavilion is a stone table with a pot of tea on it.
Zhu Di is drinking tea.
Beside him stood an honest monk dressed in black.
Zhu Yunxuan immediately thought of one person - Dao Yan.
He is also known as the famous prime minister in black.
This is a man with an almost demonic mind!
He remained calm and continued to behave like a child. He smiled and came forward to say hello: "Hello, fourth uncle!"
Zhu Di waved his hand carelessly and said boldly: "Here comes Fu'er, sit down quickly!"
At this time, the black-clothed monk also stepped forward and saluted respectfully: "The poor monk Daoyan has met the grandson of the Four Emperors."
really!
This guy is Dao Yan.
Zhu Yunxuan didn't show anything, but asked "curiously": "Fourth uncle, why is there a master with you?"
Zhu Di was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "This is Fourth Uncle's friend."
"Oh, that's right!" Zhu Yunzhen nodded.
The moment he nodded, he saw Zhu Di and Dao Yan's eyes communicate briefly.
Zhu Di smiled and said: "Zhen'er, after my fourth uncle came back, he didn't have time to visit you at home. Don't be angry with your fourth uncle."
"No way!" Zhu Yunxi immediately shook his head: "Fourth uncle is a person who does important things. Xu'er will not be so ignorant."
The corners of Zhu Di's eyes twitched slightly. Although it was very slight, he still caught it.
"How can I do anything big? You kid, really." Zhu Di waved his hands carelessly.
Zhu Yunxuan shook his head: "Anyway, I think the fourth uncle is the one who does big things. Grandpa Huang and I said the same thing,"
"You kid!" Zhu Di shook his head helplessly, as if he suddenly remembered something, and pretended to be casual:
"By the way, Xu'er, I heard that your grandpa asked you about establishing a crown prince?"
His words were calm and his voice was not loud. To Chu Yi, it seemed like he was talking indifferently.
But when it fell in Zhu Yunzhen's ears, it was like thunder.
