Ming Dynasty: Abandoned baby at the beginning, Zhu let me be the emperor

"What's the big deal? We studied together for a few years, so we'll be familiar with each other, right?"

Zhu Yuanzhang completely ignored Xu Da's excuses and turned to look at Xu Miaojin.

He really loves this little girl, otherwise he wouldn't have spent so much effort to arrange her marriage.

"This……"

Xu Da finally understood why Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to ask about Xu Miaojin's studies just now. It turned out that he was hiding here.

Of course, he also knew that besides really liking this little kid of his, Zhu Yuanzhang also wanted the support of the Huaixi nobles represented by him.

It seems that Old Zhu really wants to train this child to become an emperor.

"Ok."

Zhu Yuanzhang was so determined that Xu Da finally gave up and agreed.

But before Zhu Yuanzhang could relax, he spoke again: "If Jin'er is unhappy, we won't marry her."

After all, Xu Miaojin was his most beloved daughter. No matter how wronged she was, he would not let his precious daughter suffer.

"We promise you."

Zhu Yuanzhang agreed to this without even thinking about it: "If anyone bullies our Jin'er tomorrow, I will be the first one to teach him a lesson."

Not only Xu Da loved Xu Miaojin, Zhu Yuanzhang also regarded Xu Miaojin as his half-biological daughter.

"This……"

Zhu Ming watched Xu Da and Zhu Yuanzhang talking as they finalized his marriage with Xu Miaojin without even asking himself and Xu Miaojin whether they agreed.

"Father?"

"Grandpa Huang..."

The two of them spoke at the same time and began to plead with their elders.

"My dear grandson, do you know how much effort it took us to arrange this marriage for you?"

Zhu Yuanzhang indeed looked at Zhu Ming with an unhappy expression. Xu Miaojing was such a good girl, he should just be happy about it.

He and Xu Da were brothers who had sworn brotherhood, and with the marriage between Xu Miaojin and Zhu Ming, they were even closer.

With the support of the Huaixi nobles behind Xu Da, it would be much easier for him to fight for the throne in the future.

Is he still feeling wronged?

"Grandpa Huang..."

It's not that he doesn't know what's good for him. Xu Miaojin is pretty, but he may not be able to resist her.

Thinking of Xu Miaojin's strong look when she was pestering him just now, Zhu Ming couldn't help but shrink back.

He is so strong at such a young age. What will he be like when he grows up?

Zhu Ming wanted to speak again, but Zhu Yuanzhang simply interrupted him.

Looking at Zhu Yuanzhang's sure look, Zhu Ming could only sigh helplessly.

I got a marriage for free when I went out, and I don’t know whether it is good or bad.

"My dear daughter, let's try it first. If it's not suitable, we can cancel it."

Since he had agreed to the engagement with Zhu Yuanzhang, Xu Da began to persuade Xu Miaojin.

If it is really inappropriate, Lao Zhu will give his brother some face.

At worst, I will still support that guy to be the emperor.

Seeing that the two adults could not persuade them, Zhu Ming and Xu Miaojin could only stand aside and feel aggrieved.

After Xu Da and Zhu Yuanzhang talked about the past for a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang reluctantly took Zhu Ming out of the Duke of Wei's mansion.

He and this old friend are both old, and they see each other less and less each time.

"Jin'er, remember to study in the main hall from now on."

Before leaving, Zhu Yuanzhang did not forget to remind Xu Miaojin to go to the main hall to study.

Even if two people don't know each other now, wouldn't they know each other after spending some time together in the main hall?

"Got it, Uncle Zhu."

Xu Miaojin still pouted and responded reluctantly.

I didn't expect that even those dignitaries who came every day couldn't get me a marriage.

This was the first time that this kid was brought here by Grandpa Zhu, and his grandfather had already decided on him.

"You kid, don't bully others."

While walking on the road, Zhu Yuanzhang lowered his head and gave Zhu Ming a warning.

Even to Zhu Tan and Zhu Xun, Zhu Yuanzhang never spoke like this.

"Grandpa Emperor, it's still unclear who will bully whom."

Zhu Ming just responded with a grievance. Now it seems that this marriage cannot be postponed.

This was the first time in all his life that he met someone he couldn't handle.

"Jin'er grew up under our watch. She is a good girl. We won't make a mistake."

Looking at the resentful look in his grandson's eyes, Zhu Yuanzhang just laughed carelessly.

He has watched these two children grow up, and he is quite confident in his own vision.

"You've made many mistakes."

Zhu Ming pouted in dissatisfaction, but he couldn't say this out loud even if he was beaten to death.

Qi Tai, Huang Zicheng and the others are the ones you assigned to Zhu Yunwen.

These people are impeccable in terms of knowledge, but they are still a little lacking in terms of governing the country.

Speaking of governing the country, Zhu Ming did not forget the navigation map that was still lying in his arms.

The Ming Dynasty’s maritime ban was quite strict, especially during the time of Zhu Yuanzhang, when not a single ship was allowed to go out to sea.

As a result, the Ming Dynasty's firearms and technology began to lag behind the level of Europe.

If the sea ban cannot be lifted, then my navigation chart will be useless.

"My dear grandson, what are you thinking about?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Ming who was just protesting against the marriage he had arranged, but in the blink of an eye he became distracted again and asked with concern.

"Grandpa Emperor, where did those merchants come from?"

When Zhu Ming heard Zhu Yuanzhang's call, he raised his head and looked at him with a confused face.

He had already made up his mind to ask Zhu to lift the maritime ban, so that at least the card in his hand could be useful.

"They all come from Western places, with blond hair and blue eyes, and they are so ugly."

When Zhu Yuanzhang talked about those merchants, his face was full of disgust. As the Great Ming Kingdom was a superior country, it naturally would not care about the things of these small foreign countries.

"Then, Grandpa Emperor, do you know what the place where those merchants come is like?"

Zhu Ming felt a headache when he saw Zhu Yuanzhang's disdainful look towards other countries, so he could only try to make him interested in these places.

"This, Grandpa Huang really doesn't know."

When asked this by Zhu Ming, Zhu Yuanzhang became a little hesitant.

He did not care much about the affairs of these Gentiles.

"Grandpa Emperor, they know the Ming Dynasty, but the Ming Dynasty doesn't know them. Isn't that unfair?"

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was following his idea, Zhu Ming started to ask again.

"Why should we, the Great Ming Empire, care about these tiny countries?"

Now that the Ming Dynasty is at its peak, it has driven the Golden Family to the uninhabited area of ​​the Gobi Desert. In Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, he also looks down on these small countries with few peoples.

Old Zhu, you don't know that this land will be badly harmed by these foreigners in the future.

Zhu Ming muttered in his heart and clenched his fists as if he had made up his mind.

Since I have come to this era and this nautical chart has been given to me, perhaps I should really do something in this era.
