Chapter 401 They Are Neither Trouble nor Burden!(1/4)

Chapter 401 They are not trouble or burden!

Zhu Yunwen was almost hating Lan Yu to death. He was so miserable that this old man would let him go?

Zhu Yunwen was afraid that Lao Zhu would agree, so he hurried out and knelt down and kowtowed to Lao Zhu.

"Grandpa, grandson..."

When Zhu Yunwen said this, he was left with only crying "woo-woo". He also wanted to lie on the ground like his second uncle Zhu Rou to express his inner dissatisfaction.

But being a scoundrel also requires talent. Lao Zhu gave birth to more than twenty princes, and only gave birth to a strange flower like Zhu Teng.

The people who were almost four years old were lying on the ground, and they said they would lie on the ground, without caring about the royal ruling, and they were simply a bastard.

Lao Zhu felt even more uncomfortable when he looked at his crying grandson.

Isn’t it just tens of thousands of disabled veterans? Why did the entire Zhu family be disturbed?

When Lao Zhu thought of this, his eyes were filled with resentment when he looked at Lan Yu again.

"Yun Wen, we won't give you all those ten thousand disabled veterans..."

Zhu Yunwen heard this and kowtowed and thanked him, but when he returned to his seat, he suddenly realized something was wrong.

Grandpa Emperor just couldn't say it all to himself, wouldn't he say he still had to get a part of it?

Lao Zhu really thought so. More than 10,000 people were a burden to anyone, but the burden was much smaller when it was spread.

"Either each person will lay off one guard or each person will place two thousand wounded soldiers for us. You can choose it yourself!"

As soon as Lao Zhu said this, he basically set a downside. The vassal kings dared not object whether they wanted it or not.

Moreover, even Zhu Ceng, who was dragged away, would probably be held down by Old Zhu Qiang and accepted his fate.

When Zhu Qi saw that his father was serious, he was about to express his opinion on the spot.

However, before he could speak, he was stopped by his younger brothers.

"Third brother!"

King Zhu Shi of Zhou kept winking at Zhu Shi, and Zhu Di shook his head at Zhu Shi. Other brothers of the king also looked at Zhu Shi, looking at him with almost begging eyes, hoping that he would not accept his father's unreasonable request.

Seeing everyone's reaction, Zhu Qi could only swallow the words to his mouth.

Lao Zhu looked at Zhu Jian several times and wanted to speak, but in the end he lowered his head and was depressed, and he sighed in his heart.

But Lao Zhu couldn't do anything to them. At most, he would scold them and say he was just a mess.

After all, my son is old and has his own little thoughts. He is not caring about his father, the emperor...

Old Zhu stood up and left the table in a daze, handing over the huge Fengtian Hall to the ministers to have fun.

After Lao Zhu left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhu Su, Zhu Di and others brought the table to Zhu Qi and took the initiative to join the table with Zhu Qi.

"Stern brother, fortunately you didn't agree just now, otherwise we would have been cheated to death by the old man!"

"Why is the court short of this little money? We have to let us raise waste for the court?"

When Zhu Qi heard the word "waste", he felt a harsh feeling.

"Fifth brother, be careful!"

"They all fought for the Ming Dynasty and for the father and emperor. Now they are unfortunately injured and have a physical disability. How can they call them waste?"

Zhu Shi curled his lips disdainfully when he heard this, and he felt very dissatisfied. Since the third brother had spoken, he no longer regarded him as a waste.

Zhu Di took the initiative to pour a glass of wine for Zhu Qi.

"Third brother, I really can't agree to this!"

"This time there are more than 10,000 disabled veterans to be resettled. If there are any disabled veterans in the future, will we still have to resettle them?"

"You and my fiefdoms are on the border. We often have to fight hard with the Mongols and Yuan Tartars, causing a bunch of disabled veterans. Isn't this lowering our combat power!"

Zhu Qi was also based on this point and became a "rebellious son". But when he thought of his father's lonely eyes, his heart was still as painful as a knife, and he felt ashamed of his father's grace for raising him.

"We're just dragging it!"

"See who can waste anyone!"

As soon as Zhu Xu finished speaking, all the vassal kings followed suit, only Zhu Xu drank the muffled wine with a melancholy look on his face.

Without Lao Zhu, the banquet became more festive and lively, and both princes and nobles, as well as civil and military ministers, became presumptuous.

Civil officials gathered together to make wine orders, and military generals also guessed wine in groups. The vassal kings turned into streets, carrying wine glasses and everywhere in the crowd to find toasts like father-in-law, brother-in-law and others.

Zhu Chun also came to Lan Yu and toasted Lan Yu, the father-in-law, with a glass of wine.

Lan Yu tried his best to make a few words from her son-in-law, and couldn't wait to play with a group of generals.

"Feng Sheng!"

"We will not return until we are drunk today!"

When Feng Sheng heard Lan Yu's clamor, he brought a jar of wine over and placed it on the table.

"Come on, whoever is afraid of you, whoever doesn't drink will lie down and his grandson!"

Zhu Chun smiled endlessly at his father-in-law who was rushing towards the crowd. His princess Lan asked him to find a way to relieve Lan Yu, but how could Lan Yu be able to relieve her when she was so lively?

Little did he know that the reason why Lan Yu was so happy today was mainly because he saw Lao Zhu being defeated. In other words, his greatest pleasure in the second half of his life was to see Lao Zhu being defeated.

Although these soldiers were brothers who had been through life and death with him, as a general, he could only bring victory and glory to the soldiers. The rest of the matter was not his control, and he could not control it even if he wanted to.

Now that he has given the brothers victory and glory, it is Lao Zhu, the emperor, fulfilling his promise.

The night is dim and the flowers are gone.

Everyone returned with great pleasure, only Dong Han, the commander of Xingwuwei, was full of worries and his face was full of helplessness and grievances.

Dong Han was promoted to commander as Lan Yu made military achievements outside the border.

Because there were too many disabled people in this battle, he was left in the Beijing camp to manage these wounded soldiers.

Originally, he was not qualified to attend the banquet today, but he had a good relationship with a minister from the Ministry of War, and the two families were considered relatives of children. Then he was written on the banquet list and went to the palace to have such a meal.

However, today Fengtian Palace saw the shirks from all the vassal kings, which made him very disappointed.

His Majesty the Emperor is good. He was worried about these disabled veterans and tried every means to settle them.

But the vassal kings regard them as burdens and burdens, and they tried their best to oppose accepting them, which deeply hurt his heart.

When he returned to the barracks from the palace, he looked at the veterans who were missing their arms and legs in the camp, and couldn't help but feel sad and squatted on the ground and cried loudly.

They were once good men with good hands and feet. They suffered injuries to protect the Ming Dynasty and His Majesty the Emperor. Why was no one willing to accept them and give them a bowl of rice?

The hundreds of households in the army, seeing the movement of the commander, hurriedly came up.

"Old, what's wrong with you?"

"The food in the palace is not delicious, I still haven't drunk anyone, hahaha!"

When Dong Han heard Li Qianhu's words, he looked at the sleeves that fluttered in the wind on Li Qianhu's left arm, and hurriedly wiped his tears in a concealed manner.

"Nothing!"

"I just feel a little uncomfortable..."

When Li Qianhu heard this, he patted Dong Han with his only remaining arm.

"It's a bad ball!"

"No matter how uncomfortable you feel, you must be full of your heart. Isn't it better than us disabled people?"

When Dong Han heard the word "crippled", he felt a harsh feeling.

"You are not disabled!"

When Li Qianhu and others heard this, they smiled indifferently.

"What are we not disabled?"

"Since I came back from Datong Mansion, the court has left us here for almost a month, and no one has ever cared about us..."

Others also agreed after hearing this.

"Blow it!"

"Old Li is right. We are just disabled. People are so tired of being disgusted by dogs that they are not popular..."

Seeing that they were so tragic, Dong Han shouted almost in an angry voice.

"You are just disabled, but you are not disabled yet!"

"You are not waste!"

When everyone heard Dong Han say this, they fell into silence one by one.

The commander-in-chief was a good official and never looked down on them. He even went to the Ministry of War to ask for explanations and military rations for them all day long.

But being disabled means being disabled, missing arms and legs means missing arms and legs. I can’t change even if the king comes!

But if the assistant commander Dong is willing to say this, just let him say that. It’s still a kindness of others?
