Chapter 108 can create a Hongwu rule! (Please subscribe!!) Heaven Prison.
Ouyang Lun and Zhu Di were cooking a small hot pot and drinking wine.
"Ma Si, we are really destined. I was imprisoned and you were imprisoned. This is the second time."
Ouyang Lun patted Zhu Di on the shoulder and said with a smile.
Uh-huh!
Zhu Di nodded repeatedly, but his eyes were all on the small hot pot, "Brother Lun, this small hot pot you made is really great. Coupled with the Maotai of Yong'an Mansion, it is a perfect match!"
"Whoosh-"
Zhu Di picked up a piece of spicy beef and blew on it twice, then threw it into his mouth happily and chewed it with a look of enjoyment.
After eating, pick up the wine glass and drink it all in one gulp!
"Spicy! Spicy!"
"Eat slowly, I won't compete with you." Ouyang Lun looked at Zhu Di's foodie look, smiled, picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
At this moment, the heavenly prison was filled with the aroma of wine and spicy food.
"Where are you drinking and eating meat? It's so delicious, I'm so greedy!"
"If you can't stand it, just take a bite or kill me immediately!"
"To shut up!"
The jailer walked to the edge of these cells and yelled.
In the sky prison, the jailer has absolute authority. With an order, these prisoners will immediately shut up, except for the occasional sound of swallowing.
The jailer looked at the deepest part of the prison, greedily took a few sips of the aroma of wine and meat, and shook his head helplessly.
The two people inside were not something his little jailer could mess with.
Especially the consort Ouyang Lun, this is his second entry into the palace. Almost two years ago, he was a newcomer to Tianlao. When he heard that Ouyang Lun asked Tianlao to keep the deepest cell, he thought it was the other party. It was a joke, but I didn’t expect that he would actually come again.
If someone else is caught in the sky prison, it is basically the death penalty for treason.
But the consort Ouyang Lun was imprisoned in Tianlao, and I always felt that he was on vacation, so it was better not to provoke him if he could.
"Brother Lun, you were also imprisoned in the sky prison. Your state this time is completely different from the last time." Zhu Di said seriously.
Ouyang Lun smiled and said, "Oh? Why don't you tell me why it's different?"
"Last time, I just felt that you were a little pessimistic, but also a little relieved. This time, you didn't feel pessimistic at all, but there was a little more sadness in your eyes." Zhu Di muttered.
Hearing this, Ouyang Lun burst into laughter, "You're quite careful."
Zhu Di rolled his eyes in his sockets and asked softly: "Brother Leng, are you sure that you are not in danger this time and that His Majesty the Emperor will not kill you?"
Ouyang Lun shook his head, "As smart as you are, do you think Emperor Zhu is a fool? Although I am somewhat sure this time, I am not [-]% sure. Many things are beyond my expectations."
For example, he did not expect that Zhu Yuanzhang would not let him go to the Tai Chi Hall at all. Last time, his official position was too low and he was only a seventh-grade county magistrate. But this time he was a fourth-grade magistrate, and he ended up being arranged to squat in this prison.
I don’t know if Li Fuyuan and Wu Jingzhi can defeat Hu Weiyong and the others according to their own wishes.
"But now that I have become a prisoner in the sky prison, my life and death depend on His Majesty the Emperor's will."
"Whether Emperor Zhu kills me or doesn't kill me, this is my fate, and I have long learned to face it calmly!"
Hearing this, Zhu Di looked out at the jailer. After making sure that the jailer did not hear, he immediately said: "Brother Lun, you are a great benefactor to our family. I can't just watch you be captured and killed by the emperor. As long as you are willing, I can find a way to get you out!"
"Um" Ouyang Lun immediately rolled his eyes and said hurriedly: "You don't want to take me out of prison, do you?"
When Zhu Di heard this, he nodded repeatedly and said excitedly: "You really can't hide anything from Brother Lun, that's what I mean!"
Ouyang Lun waved his hand, "No, no, the prison is heavily guarded. There is no way to escape. Even if I can escape from the prison, there is still a palace to break into. If I get caught, I will die. I might as well stay here." , much more comfortable!”
"It will have to involve your whole family at that time, which is not cost-effective."
"Um, okay." Zhu Di didn't dare to force himself when he saw this.
On the other side of the prison, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao were sitting on a simple bench, eavesdropping on their conversation.
"You bastard!" Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry!
Zhu Biao said quickly: "Father, please don't worry, I will have someone renovate a prison next door to Ouyang Lun Prison later. From now on, we will listen there!"
"That's not what I'm talking about!" Zhu Yuanzhang said in a low voice: "It's just that we need to decorate a room well. Why can Ouyang Lun be comfortable every time, while our father and son can only stand in this corner."
"Yes!"
"Biao'er, do you think there is something missing in this old man's mind? He can even think of prison robbery! If Ouyang Lun hadn't been here, we would have had to break his legs!" Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly thought of something again, "Hey, that's not right. Ah! Shouldn't the fourth child be in Peking? When did he come to the capital again? "
"Biao'er, have you known this for a long time?"
Facing Zhu Yuanzhang's questioning, Zhu Biao was a little at a loss and said, "Father, please listen to my explanation of this matter."
When Zhu Yuanzhang saw this, he naturally understood and said angrily: "You are really my good sons!"
"Father, calm down!" Zhu Biao said quickly: "My son and my fourth brother didn't mean to make you angry. My fourth sister and my fourth brother are very worried about my fourth brother-in-law. My fourth brother originally wanted to come to you to plead for mercy, but I was worried that you would He scolded and punished him, so he finally chose to come to Tianlao to comfort his fourth brother-in-law."
"The fourth brother must have been talking about the prison robbery and will not actually do it. Besides, the fourth brother-in-law also rejected the fourth brother's suggestion just now."
"Don't worry!"
"Don't worry? Don't worry!" Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily: "Lao Si was originally a demon king, and now he has Ouyang Lun, a dog-headed strategist. He is not a fuel-efficient lamp. We always feel that we should put both of them at risk. Sooner or later something big will happen in Beizhili!"
Zhu Biao looked embarrassed. He wanted to speak for his fourth brother Zhu Biao, but he didn't dare to speak. The only good thing was that Ouyang Lun rejected Zhu Di's proposal to escape from prison, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous in the future.
"Father, aren't we here to hear what the fourth brother-in-law thinks? The fourth brother is more lively, but since he followed Ouyang Lun, he has actually become more sensible. It is said that the fourth brother has been learning from Yong'an in Peking. The government has built Peiping, and now it is quite effective."
"I think it's okay for the fourth child to follow his fourth brother-in-law."
"No problem. That's just because they haven't figured it out yet. One is your fourth brother and the other is your fourth brother-in-law. You have to manage them well yourself. Don't just indulge them, otherwise they will become more and more ignorant!" Zhu Yuanzhang said sincerely.
After complaining, most of the anger in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart dissipated.
"My father is wise, and I will definitely advise my fourth brother and brother-in-law seriously when I have time." Zhu Biao said seriously.
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand.
At this time, the conversation between Ouyang Lun and Zhu Di continued.
"You seem to have other ideas. Do you want to tell me? Maybe I can give you an answer."
"Brother Lun, you know me. I do have some things I want to discuss with you." Zhu Di rubbed his hands, "Brother Lun, last time we were in this prison, you told me that after Ming Dynasty encountered a weather crisis in the future, I have been Think again about how to solve this problem!”
Ouyang Lun was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Oh, that was all two years ago. I didn't expect you still take it to heart. It's rare."
"So how are you thinking?"
Zhu Di's eyes glowed with confidence, "I think I have found a solution!"
Ho! Hearing Zhu Di's words, not only Ouyang Lun was shocked, but also Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao, who were listening in the dark, were quite surprised.
"Father, look at me and tell me that the fourth child is always thinking about Ming Dynasty."
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, his eyes filled with confusion.
Is it possible that this guy, the Fourth, has really changed his gender?
If this is the case, if the fourth child is trained well, he may become Biao'er's right-hand man in the future, and the two brothers will protect the Ming Dynasty together!
However, thinking of the previous unreliability of the fourth child Zhu Di, Zhu Yuanzhang said solemnly: "With the brain of the fourth child, what kind of solution can he come up with?"
"Let's not get too happy too early."
"Of course, it would be a surprise if the fourth child really says something useful this time."
"And we can't let Ouyang Lun teach the fourth child bad things."
"Yes, yes." Zhu Biao nodded repeatedly, but he did not dare to say anything more, because if he continued, Zhu Yuanzhang would probably say it to him as well.
Inside the prison.
Ouyang Lun saw Ma Si being so confident and smiled, "Then tell me what method you want to use to solve the extreme cold problem that Ming Dynasty will encounter in the future!"
Zhu Di stood up and walked back and forth in the prison. As he walked, he said: "Brother Lung, if what you said about the alternating warm and cold periods is true, and the Ming Dynasty is in the cold period, the situation is getting more and more serious. Moreover, there will be invasion by foreign enemies such as the northern nomads!”
Ouyang Lun nodded, "It is indeed like this. When the cold period comes, the situation of the nomadic people in the north will be worse than that of the people of the Ming Dynasty. The grass will be frozen by the heavy snow, and nine out of ten cattle, sheep and horses will be lost. The people of the Ming Dynasty will have difficulties, while the nomadic people of the north will be in a worse situation. It is directly the danger of the subjugation of the country and the destruction of the clan, so in order to survive, they will also launch an attack on the Ming Dynasty. This is a battle of survival, either you die or I die."
Zhu Di nodded with deep understanding, "Humph! The northern nomads are determined to destroy the Ming Dynasty. I have no ideas on how to solve the internal problems of the Ming Dynasty, but I do have an idea for the northern nomads!"
"Since the northern nomads will attack our Ming Dynasty sooner or later, that is to say, our Ming Dynasty and the northern nomads will have a war sooner or later. It will just be sooner or later, stronger or weaker. If this is the case, why don't we stop the strength of the Ming Dynasty? Take the initiative to attack the northern nomads when you are stronger and have an earlier opportunity?”
"As long as we completely wipe out the northern nomads, then at least we will have solved an external trouble in the future. Without the external trouble, future generations will be able to use their energy to solve internal problems!"
"Brother Leng, you said I think so, right?"
After speaking, Zhu Di looked at Ouyang Lun expectantly. It was obvious that he wanted to get Ouyang Lun's approval.
It was not only Ouyang Lun who heard Zhu Di's remarks, but also Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao and his son.
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he was also shocked by Zhu Di's remarks, "Completely destroy the northern nomads."
This sentence really spoke to his heart.
The fourth child looks more like me, with the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
Zhu Biao often follows Zhu Yuanzhang, and he also understands Zhu Yuanzhang's micro-expressions quite well. He is quite satisfied with this look.
"Father, if this solution proposed by the Fourth Brother can be realized, it will indeed make the northern border of Ming Dynasty stable for at least a hundred years!" Zhu Biao said with a smile: "So Father, please don't be angry with the Fourth Brother and the Fourth Brother-in-law anymore. "
Seeing that his thoughts were seen through, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately said in a low voice: "This is what a reckless man thinks. If the nomads in the north are so easy to eliminate, why should I wait for this kid to say it?"
"This guy is a complete militant!"
"But we have to admit that there is some truth to what Lao Si said, but I won't leave this matter to you. The war will end in my hands, and Biao'er. All you have to do is to fully recuperate. , consolidate the foundation of Ming Dynasty!"
"This is the top priority. In the future, your brother and nephew will guard the Ming border, so there is no need to worry at all."
"My son, please remember your father's teachings!" Zhu Biao nodded, "I wonder what my fourth brother-in-law Ouyang Lun will think of this method?"
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were filled with curiosity, and his ears immediately stood up.
"Brother Lun, don't just laugh, but tell me what my method is like!" Zhu Di asked anxiously.
Ouyang Lun calmly picked up a piece of spicy beef from the hot small copper pot, drank a glass of wine, and then said: "Throughout the ages, the Central Plains has never lacked talented and sage monarchs and emperors, and many of them also thought of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty were two examples of this method. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty defeated the Xiongnu and Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty destroyed the Turks, but they could not completely wipe out the nomadic people in the north!"
"Do you think Emperor Zhu can do it? Or can the emperors after Ming Dynasty do it?"
"This" Zhu Di was stunned for a moment, then gritted his teeth and continued: "Then our Ming Dynasty can also learn from Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty to scare and weaken the northern nomads!!"
Ouyang Lun nodded, "Knowing how to change your unrealistic goals is worthy of praise."
"Then my method is feasible!!" Zhu Di was a little excited.
"Of course. After all, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty have already given us good examples. This is simply an open-book exam. If you can't answer all of these questions, it only means that you are dull and incapable of carving. , I’m too lazy to tell you so much nonsense!”
Ouyang Lun said lightly.
Zhu Di was indeed very happy to receive Ouyang Lun's affirmation, but he quickly said: "Brother Lun, you are right. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty did set a good example, but Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had the experience accumulated during the Wen and Jing Dynasties. Financial support, when the Han Dynasty was at its most powerful, and Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty personally created the rule of Zhenguan. From the prosperous Tang Dynasty to the beginning of Zhenguan, there were scenes of all nations coming to the court, so the two of them could do it, but I, the Ming Dynasty, need money now and have no money. There are no important people, and we have to be prepared for counterattacks from the remnants of Beiyuan at all times."
Ouyang Lun smiled slightly, "We can create a Hongwu rule!"
