Chapter 89
Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to reward Zhu Yunwen and others on their merits. This should have been carried out a few days ago, but Zhu Yunwen was absolutely in a state of uncertainty about Zhao Fei's life and death, so he could only postpone it until now.
Zhu Yuanzhang asked, "Yunwen, how is General Zhao's injury?"
"Grandpa Emperor, Zhao Fei's injuries have been much healed..."
"That's good……"
A loyal minister like Zhao Fei must not die. Zhu Yuanzhang even bit him and assisted Zhu Yunwen well. Zhu Yuanzhang knew very well that if Zhao Fei had not taken action, his face would have been lost. Whether he was for his face or the common people at that time, Zhao Fei's contribution was certain.
"I asked you to come this time to reward merits."
The King of Yan immediately said, "Father, this is our duty, so don't give me rewards."
"King Yan, this is your idea, but I must clearly determine the rewards and punishments, which is also a kind of affirmation of loyal ministers."
"My son has received the teachings." The King of Yan didn't say anything anymore.
Zhu Yuanzhang was the first to plan to reward Zhao Fei, but because he had not recovered, he asked Zhu Yunwen to lead him.
Zhu Yuanzhang asked, "Yunwen, what do you think Zhao Fei was promoted to the commander of the Jinyiwei?"
"Grandpa Emperor, don't..."
Zhu Yuanzhang was very curious: "Why?"
Zhu Yunwen quickly explained: "Zhao Fei is very loyal, but he is too young and a little casual. If he handed over such a job to him, it would have hurt him."
Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it and said that Zhao Fei was only one or two years older than Zhu Yunwen, and such a position was really not suitable.
"Yunwen, right, Zhao Fei is too young and really not suitable for that position, but what kind of reward is needed."
"Grandpa Emperor, Zhao Fei has just gotten married, but he has no money to buy a mansion."
"This is simple, how about I'll add a general's mansion to a hundred thousand taels of gold."
"Grandpa Emperor is wise!"
The second person Zhu Yuanzhang rewarded was Zhu Yunwen's brother-in-law. Because of his experience last time, Zhu Yuanzhang asked Li Lu about his intentions, but the result was too unexpected. Li Lu actually asked to treat Zhao Fei equally.
"Okay, according to General Li's request, there is a general's mansion with a gold price of 100,000 taels."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Yunwen and couldn't think of anything to reward him for a while. Finally, Zhu Yuanzhang thought of those tributes, including ten very beautiful Persian beauties.
"Yunwen, how about the emperor's reward for you ten Persian beauties?"
"The grandson appreciates the kindness of Grandpa Emperor, but I think this reward is better to Uncle Yan."
"Why?"
"Grandpa Emperor, grandson loves a treasure of Grandpa Emperor."
Zhu Yunwen said it outright, but he didn't want to tell Zhu Yuanzhang what kind of treasure he was.
"King Yan, what do you think?"
"I just accept the prince's kindness."
"That's it."
The King of Yan does like beauties, and this exotic style is the type he likes. Even if Zhu Yunwen doesn't say it, the King of Yan will actually make such a request, but it's more natural now. The King of Yan can not only enjoy these beauties by himself, but can even trade them. The King of Yan believes that these lustful vassal kings are definitely willing to trade with him.
The King of Yan quickly surrendered. As for Li Lu, he left because of military busyness, and the grandson was left in the imperial study. Zhu Yuanzhang retreated to the left and right and even the personal eunuch, Eunuch Wu, let him drive out.
"Yunwen, can you tell Grandpa the Emperor now, what reward do you want?"
Zhu Yunwen smiled and said, "I want Grandpa Emperor's Eternal Sword."
Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly became nervous: "Yunwen, can you tell me why..."
Zhu Yunwen did not hide anything at all: "Grandpa Emperor, Uncle Yan has the Chixiao Sword. If he really does not benefit me, how can I resist?"
"What you mean is that if you have the Feathered Sword, you won't be afraid of the King of Yan."
"That's right!"
Zhu Yuanzhang pondered for a moment and said, "Yunwen, it's not that I don't want to give it to you, but this feathered sword is really hard to get."
Zhu Yuanzhang told Zhu Yunwen that the feathered sword was an immortal sword, and that only the true emperor could take the magic sword. Even if it was Zhu Yuanzhang, it would not be able to pull it up in these years.
Zhu Yunwen said nervously: "Grandpa Emperor, why is this happening?"
Zhu Yuanzhang said with a wry smile: "This feathered sword not only requires the true emperor to control it, but the most important thing is to have extraordinary strength."
Although Zhu Yuanzhang did not want to admit it, he had completely lost the ability to control it because he was old. In the end, he had no choice but to lock the sword under the deep palace.
"Grandpa Emperor, where is this?"
"This is where your grandmother rests."
Zhu Yuanzhang actually hid both the Divine Sword and Queen Ma under the deep palace. This was a big ice cellar. Perhaps because of these ice, Queen Ma had not yet corrupted.
"Grandma Emperor, grandson is here to see you."
After Zhu Yunwen finished speaking, he knelt in front of the ice coffin. He also found an empty ice coffin, which seemed to be prepared by Zhu Yuanzhang for himself.
"Yun Wen, these two ice coffins are made of thousands of years of ice, and these ice beads can be preserved for thousands of years without melting."
"Grandpa Emperor means..."
"A hundred years later, I hope to be buried under the Huai River with Queen Ma."
"Grandpa Emperor, I will do it for you."
Of course, Zhu Yunwen fulfilled his promise. If it weren't for this, there wouldn't be Ming Xiaoling anymore. They walked all the way and saw the divine sword on a Nine Dragon Wall. This divine sword could actually absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Although Zhu Yunwen couldn't believe it, he felt electrocuted when he wanted to get close to this sword.
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said, "The Sword of Emperor's Sword is extraordinary. The red light of the Red Light of the King of Yan's Red Sword is not the color of the sword, it is the fire."
"How is this possible?"
"The world is so big, everything is strange..."
Zhu Yuanzhang told Zhu Yunwen a legend, one about the Chixiao Sword and the Feathered Sword. According to legend, there were two great gods fighting in ancient times, one holding the Chixiao Sword and the other holding the Feathered Sword. The Chixiao Sword had the power of earth fire. As for the feathered Sword, it was powered by heavenly thunder. The two great gods fought for seven days and seven nights, but they still did not decide the outcome, but they accidentally left the two swords in the mortal world.
"Grandpa Emperor, this is just a legend."
"Yunwen, this sword does have extraordinary power, but unfortunately it cannot be used casually."
Zhu Yuanzhang told the story that he actually used this sword to refer to Tianlei. That time it was very thrilling. If Zhu Yuanzhang hadn't used the heavenly thunder to destroy the enemies surrounding them, it would have been possible that Zhu Yuanzhang would have been gone. Zhu Yuanzhang would not dare to use this sword again after that time. This sword was too terrifying. Zhu Yuanzhang even believed that if he used it again, he would have been away. After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Zhu Yunwen knew that it was not easy to get the feathered sword.
