Chapter 4 The endless fertile fields
After hearing Cao Qinghe's words, Zhu Song sighed and hooked his fingers at Cao Qinghe.
"Old Cao, come here."
Cao Qinghe thought that the prince had finally figured it out and wanted to talk to him openly, so he poked his head over.
But the result was that Zhu Song came to the back of Cao Qinghe's head.
The attack was quite heavy now. Cao Qinghe kept covering the back of his head and it took him a long time to recover.
"Prince, why are you hitting me?"
"Why are you hitting me? Lao Cao! I still said the same thing, do you know what's wrong?"
After scolding Lao Cao, Zhu Song breathed a sigh of relief, and then said in a gentle tone.
"I know what you are worried about, but don't worry, I am responsible for doing things. If I eat, I will have what you eat. Are you afraid of eggs?"
Cao Qinghe was scolded by Zhu Song so much that he couldn't raise his head, so he could only murmur and explain.
"Isn't the servant worried about the prince..."
"Stop talking about Lao Cao, let's talk about it later. I will use the remaining spicy food to squeeze a bowl of spicy oil for you to drink all of it!"
...
Zhu Yuanzhang went north all the way, and now he has passed Tianjin Wei, Peiping Prefecture, and Yongping Prefecture.
This journey north made Zhu Yuanzhang very angry.
As a bowl at the beginning and a dragon throne at the end, Zhu Yuanzhang hated the most in his life the corrupt officials.
As we walked north, the more we reached the north, the worse the people's lives were.
Although they were not hungry all over the ground, the people on the streets were skinny one by one, and the officials who were officials were bullying the people as flowers.
According to Zhu Yuanzhang's nature, as long as he sees a corrupt official, he will be killed and not escape.
Although he is on a mini-dress visit, he is surrounded by hundreds of casual Jinyiwei.
There are 30,000 troops from the Ming Dynasty in the next fifty miles. With the order here, these 30,000 troops will arrive at Zhu Yuanzhang as quickly as possible to protect him.
So if you want to deal with these corrupt officials, it is easy to get rid of, but the crown prince said.
"Grandfather, you finally got here after going north. If you start a massacre at this time, everyone knows that you have left Yingtian Mansion and come to the north."
"Anyway, these corrupt officials don't know that you are here, you are here, so why not let them go for the time being and record these corrupt officials one by one. It's not too late to send someone to deal with these corrupt officials when they go back!"
After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang also felt that what his grandson said was reasonable, and if he could not bear it, he would make a big plan.
This trip was for my own son, and these corrupt officials were not within their current considerations.
However, as the journey went on, seeing the situation in the north was not optimistic, Zhu Yuanzhang began to shake.
Before leaving the customs, the people's lives have become like this. If they want to leave the customs, the people will not only be difficult to farm, but will have to endure the pain of the cold and cold weather, but also face the troubles of the remnants of the Mongolian Yuan from time to time.
, wouldn’t life be more difficult?
Especially when thinking about his son Zhu Song, who is in Kaiyuan, wouldn’t he be further north and life be even worse?
However, the memorial of Jinyiwei almost depicted Kaiyuan as a paradise on earth. Every family has surplus food, and everyone is rich and healthy.
Zhu Yuanzhang was shaken by the information of the Jinyiwei for the first time. He didn't know if it was because the person who was monitored was his own son, so he was worried or something.
Yongping Mansion is also a virtue, but this place is about to come out of customs, and it is not far from Daning after leaving customs.
At this moment, an Jinyiwei came to Zhu Yunwen and whispered something to Zhu Yunwen.
After hearing this, Zhu Yunwen waved his hand and then came to the emperor's grandfather who was having a meal.
"Grandfather, I heard from Liaodong that my uncle is famous in Liaodong and likes to collect strange things. Do you think we should start from here?"
"Strike it? What to do?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked in confusion.
Zhu Yunwen smiled slightly and expressed his plan: "Grandfather, grandson thinks so. Since uncle 20 is so cautious and does not let people reflect the real situation in Liaodong, should we also follow the local customs?
Becoming a wealthy businessman, we also have rare objects in our hands."
"My grandson has grown up now, and it seems that it is not easy for Uncle Twenty to recognize me. When my grandfather appears, he will probably know it. If you really want to know what Uncle Twenty is thinking, you should get close to him first.
”
After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang nodded in agreement, and he agreed.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but feel suspicious. If he really stood in front of this brat, wouldn't this brat not recognize his biological father?
Three days later, Zhu Yuanzhang and his group had already entered Kaiyuan Realm.
It’s true that after entering Kaiyuan Realm, the people I met on the road were talking and laughing, and their faces were blushing and looked good.
It seems that what the Jinyiwei said is true. This kid really made Kaiyuan well. Now the people here have enough food and clothing. Zhu Yuanzhang, as the emperor, is naturally happy, but his heart is like drinking half a bottle of vinegar, and he is always sour.
, not a taste.
"What is this bastard boy hiding from his father?"
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but ask questions.
At this moment, the carriage suddenly stopped, and Zhu Yunwen quickly penetrated into the carriage and said to Zhu Yuanzhang with a look of joy.
"Grandfather, look at it, come out and take a look!"
Zhu Yuanzhang got out of the carriage, and the scene that caught his eye made him stunned on the spot.
Fertile land! Endless fertile land!
At this moment, the convoy was parked next to the official road. Zhu Yuanzhang stood in the carriage, looking at the endless green fertile field in front of him, and could not hide his excitement.
He hurriedly got out of the carriage, rushed into the field, and gently stroked the rice that had already produced ears of rice.
As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang moved, the Jinyiwei dressed as a guard guard also immediately moved, but did not surround him, but stood in a specific position, vaguely focusing on Zhu Yuanzhang to protect Zhu Yuanzhang.
"What a good rice and what a good grain!"
This is the first time I have seen so much food and so many rice in the fields along the way.
The rice here is even worse than the paddy fields around Yingtian Mansion, and it grows well here.
Zhu Yuanzhang bent down, took out a handful of water from the rice field and placed it on his nose and sniffed it gently.
The water was mixed with the fragrance of soil, which made Zhu Yuanzhang feel refreshed.
"If all the people of the Ming Dynasty could have such vast land and such good food, how could there be people in the Ming Dynasty not have enough food!"
