Zhu Yuanzhang said: "The Prime Minister's words are serious. If the Prime Minister hadn't asked me to imitate Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty, who was open-minded and generous, knew people well and was not fond of killing, so as to become an emperor, I would not be where I am today. How can I forget the kindness of the Prime Minister?

! I just can’t forget the kindness and help that the Prime Minister showed to me, so I ignored the objections of the ministers and insisted on giving the Prime Minister the highest reward? "Speaking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang paused, suddenly sighed, and said: "But

Manchu

Wu is dissatisfied with me and the Prime Minister. I am the king of a country and the king and father of the people in the world. I cannot neglect state affairs for the sake of the Prime Minister. I did not visit you when you were ill. I wanted to tell the civil and military officials of the dynasty and the people of the world.

, I care about the world and will never neglect state affairs for the sake of one person. You are sick. I can't abandon state affairs and ignore state affairs because of my trust in you because you have been my prime minister for many years. This will only be detrimental to the reputation of the prime minister.

!”

Li Shanchang trembled and hurriedly bowed and said: "Your Majesty should be like this! Your Majesty is worried about state affairs. How can a humble minister let the civil and military officials of the court and the people of the world complain about your Majesty because of his illness?"

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and said: "In the civil and military dynasties, it is the Prime Minister who can understand my thoughts. Since I became the emperor, I am no longer the ambassador I used to be. I can't help myself in everything. This time the Prime Minister is seriously ill, and I have

Never visited you

There is no need to say nice words to deceive me. I know that there is still some injustice in my heart. This is also human nature. Although I am the king of a country, I am also a mortal. How could I not know that, tell me, I want to

How can I reward you?"

Li Shanchang's face turned a little pale, and a trace of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, "The emperor really wants me to retreat!"

He bent forward and said in fear: "I just caught the cold occasionally, it is not a serious illness. In the past ten days, I have neglected state affairs and caused trouble to Your Majesty. I deserve death. How dare I ask for a reward? Your Majesty is busy with everything and worries about state affairs.

I still miss my old minister, and I feel extremely ashamed in my heart. How can I ask for a reward? Your Majesty is really insulting me!"

After saying these words, cold sweat broke out on Li Shanchang's forehead and back. He never raised his head to formally look at Zhu Yuanzhang from beginning to end, but only glanced quickly from the corner of his eye. In just ten days,

Somehow, Li Shanchang suddenly felt that the man in front of him was exuding a stronger momentum than before.

At the same time, the pressure was so intense that people didn't dare to look up or take a breath. They just wanted to leave this place as soon as possible. Although I took a glance just now, the face of the man I had followed for many years was still the same as before, and he even had a windy look on his face.

The clouds are light and pale, but the two rays of light in his eyes make people neither happy nor worried. This is what makes people scared.

He had followed Zhu Yuanzhang for many years and knew that this master imitated Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty, in everything. He either didn't do anything or did everything he wanted to do. This was what Li Shanchang was afraid of.

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang's face showed no emotion or joy. Years of keeping a low profile had already made him intangible. He knew that what these ministers who were good at figuring out the emperor's thoughts were most afraid of was him.

"If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move. If the enemy moves, I will kill you!"

Li Shanchang's breathing accelerated obviously. This huge pressure made him unable to breathe, but the emperor did not speak. As a minister, he naturally did not dare to speak.

After a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang's voice came from the sky above his head: "Your Majesty, the Prime Minister, has spoken harshly. Is this what the Prime Minister deserves?" His voice was calm and peaceful, as if he was chatting with ordinary people from two families on the street.

Li Shanchang let out a heavy breath. This long wait almost killed him. But now Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, but this abnormal tone made him very uneasy. His many years of military career told him,

This time it was definitely not that simple. This powerful danger made him more and more frightened.

"Is Li Qi old too?" After a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang said again, with the same tone as before.

Li Shanchang didn't know what Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking, but when the emperor asked him, he naturally didn't dare not agree, so he hurriedly bowed and said, "Is it already the thirteenth year?"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said: "I will betroth my eldest daughter, Princess Lin'an, to him and stay there for a few years to get married, right?"

This Princess Lin'an is the eldest daughter of Zhu Yuanzhang, and her mother is Sun Shi, the imperial concubine of Chengmu. She is as beautiful as a flower, as elegant as a spring begonia, and is the most beautiful woman in the Ming Dynasty. What's more, she is filial and has always been loved by Zhu Yuanzhang!

Li Shanchang hurriedly said: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty!"

Zhu Yuanzhang seemed not to have heard and continued: "I am going to promote Li Cunyi to the position of Taipu Cheng, and Li Shen and Li You to serve as prefectural officials. I have already arranged this matter, so the Prime Minister does not need to worry!"

Li Shanchang's heart trembled, and an ominous premonition arose in his heart and became stronger and stronger.

Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to have been dealing with official documents for a day and was tired from sitting. At this time, he slowly stood up from the throne, vomited lightly, moved his sore arms, and said with a smile on his face: "Xiangguo

Do you know who the emperor I admire most in my life is?"

Suddenly this sentence came, and Li Shanchang really couldn't figure out what Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking, so he could only follow: "I read history books at night, whether it was the emperors of Qin, Han, Wu, the emperors of the Tang Dynasty and the ancestors of the Song Dynasty, they all relied on wealthy families to conquer the world.

Your Majesty and the Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty achieved imperial hegemony with a piece of cloth, so from the perspective of this humble minister, the person your Majesty has admired throughout his life is the Great Ancestor Liu Bang, right?"

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled calmly, shook his head and said: "Liu Bang was born in a peasant family. He was open-minded and generous. He abolished the harsh laws of Qin and made a three-part agreement with the elders in Guanzhong. Finally, relying on Han Xin, Zhang Liang, and Xiao He, he turned defeat into victory in the battle with Chu and Han. He defeated Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu.

back,

Unifying the world and achieving eternal hegemony is indeed worthy of my admiration, but it is a pity that in the end, the birds are gone and the good bow is hidden; the cunning rabbit is dead and the lackeys are cooked, and the princes and kings with different surnames such as Han Xin, Peng Yue, Yingbu, Zang Tu, etc. are destroyed.

What you are doing is not what I like!"

Li Shanchang thought for a while and then mentioned Tang Taizong!

Zhu Yuanzhang still shook his head and said: "In the past, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty used his divine and military tactics to quell the chaos, command the wind and clouds, pacify the bandits, and establish the common government of Qi. Then he conquered the south and the north, subdued the four descendants, and ordered everything to be done. He connected with the Sea of ​​Japan in the east and the Sea of ​​​​North in the north.

Crossing Siberia, west by Tigris River, Antarctica

In India and Oceania, the country's power is more prosperous than that of the Han Dynasty. Taizong is a national hero that has never been seen in ancient times! However, the Xuanwu Gate was changed and built. Although Yuanji was a stubborn and foolish man, Taizong killed his brother and his brother.

Even if you are a British leader, you will inevitably be criticized by future generations!"
