Daming: The system rejected my request for salted fish

Only after Mao Xiang left the courtyard did Zhu Yuanzhang look at Wei Wu.

"I've already talked about my sons and grandsons, but what about me? What about my lifespan?"

Upon hearing this, Wei Wu smiled and said bluntly:

"According to records, you, Mr. Zhu, lived to be seventy years old. This makes you one of the few emperors to have lived to such a high age throughout history."

After hearing this answer, Zhu Yuanzhang was quite satisfied. After all, he still had more than ten years to live.

But at this time he turned to look at Queen Ma, and then continued to ask:

"What about our sister?"

"Forehead……"

Wei Wu was stumped again.

At this moment, the more he spoke, the more he felt that Lao Zhu's life was too miserable.

If I wasn't worried about being chopped into pieces on the spot.

He wanted to take out his cell phone and play a song called "The Ming Dynasty is Not Good" for Lao Zhu.

But no matter what I think, I still have to say what I need to say. After all, it is better for the scabbard of Queen Ma to be alive.

Looking at Queen Ma, whose expression was a little unnatural, Wei Wu sighed deeply.

In August of the fifteenth year of the Hongwu reign, Empress Ma died of an unknown cause at the age of 51. She was buried in the Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum and was posthumously named Empress Xiaoci.

"Some say Aunt Ma fell ill and died in her sleep a few months later because she cared for Xiong Ying, who was infected with smallpox."

"There are no detailed records about Aunt Ma in later generations, but based on her deeds during her lifetime, later generations all call her the virtuous queen of all ages."

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard the title of "Empress of All Ages", he was not as happy as he was when he heard the title of "Emperor of All Ages".

The reason is simple. The woman he loves most in his life will leave him forever in a few months.

What’s the point of having a good reputation if no one can be with you!

At the same time, there was another thing that made Zhu Yuanzhang even more angry.

"Are these historians useless? They can't even remember the historical data properly. Do they think our swords are weak?"

Seeing that Old Zhu was angry, Wei Wu started to explain:

"Uncle Zhu, the historians can't be blamed for this. Even if they had recorded it, it would have been destroyed in the end."

"Many historical records about the Ming Dynasty have been revised by the Qing Dynasty. Oh, yes, now they should be called Jianzhou Jurchen."

"After the fall of the Ming Dynasty, the Qing army entered the country and took control of the country. While carrying out a large-scale literary inquisition, they also deliberately rewrote the history of the Ming Dynasty."

"You also know that history is always written by the victors, and the Manchus were once vassals of the Ming Dynasty and were called slaves."

After Wei Wu finished speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang finally understood.

History is a bitch, and anyone who is strong can play with her at will.

However, Wei Wu's words made Zhu Yuanzhang remember the Jianzhou Jurchens, and he was already thinking about how to exterminate them.

But while he was thinking, he had not forgotten about Queen Ma.

If Xiongying was really infected with smallpox as Wei Wu said, then our sister is probably the same.

If this is true, it will be necessary to determine as soon as possible whether cowpox can prevent smallpox.

But if Xiong Ying hadn't been infected with smallpox...

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang became anxious again.

Even the great Emperor Hongwu could be so emotionally vulnerable so many times in one day.

But what Wei Wu was talking about was either national affairs or the safety of his loved ones, all of which were the things that Zhu Yuanzhang cared about most.

In this situation, it is impossible not to be anxious.

In order to save his sister's life, Zhu Yuanzhang actually made a formal promise.

"Wei Wu, no matter what method you use, as long as you can save our sister's life, we will let you walk sideways in this great Ming Dynasty from now on."

I have to say, if anyone else heard this, they would definitely be ecstatic.

But Wei Wu understood that such words could only be listened to. The emperor's promise could be trusted but not fully believed.

Now Zhu Yuanzhang needs his help, so he can say anything and will do as much as possible.

But if he really offended Zhu Yuanzhang's taboo in the future, he would not show mercy.

However, he was able to say such words in front of Empress Ma, at least before Empress Ma died.

These promises are all valid, after all, we still have Queen Ma as our life-saving god to protect us!

However, without knowing the cause of death, Wei Wu could not guarantee that he could handle it.

So after Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, he did not agree immediately but remained silent.

After a long time, he slowly spoke:

"Uncle Zhu, I really can't promise you that I can save Aunt Ma's life."

Having said that, Wei Wu turned his head and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, and said sincerely:

"But I can assure you that as long as there is a glimmer of hope, even one in ten thousand, I will do my best to save Aunt Ma."

"I don't know if my answer can satisfy you."

In fact, from the moment he entered the door, Zhu Yuanzhang had been observing Wei Wu's behavior.

Including the time when he specifically took out a Coke and handed it to Queen Ma.

And he clearly took out a small box and wanted to do something, but he stopped after looking at Empress Ma.

From these minor details, it can be seen that Wei Wu really respects his sister.

So, although he was not very satisfied with what Wei Wu said, he believed it in his heart.

However, just as Zhu Yuanzhang was about to respond, Empress Ma suddenly stood up and came to Wei Wu.

"I agreed to this on behalf of Chongba!"

After saying that, Queen Ma reached out and patted Wei Wu on the shoulder, looking at him as if he were a junior.

"Xiao Wu, I'm sorry to bother you with my affairs. Just do your best on this matter. Don't take it too seriously, okay?"

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was standing next to her, didn't say anything when he heard his sister speak.

He knows his sister's personality best.

Normally, they won't interfere in anything, but once they do, it's the final word.

Wei Wu was also aware of Empress Ma's status in the Ming Dynasty and her status in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart.

Now that he had heard what Queen Ma had said, he no longer had to worry about being beheaded by Zhu Yuanzhang because of this matter.

However, just when Wei Wu was delighted, Queen Ma spoke again.

"Since you call me aunt, I naturally regard you as my own descendant."

"Xiao Wu, you are a rare and extraordinary person from the future. Since there is no way to go back, you might as well settle down here."

"I, the so-called Eternal Sage Empress of the Ming Dynasty, promise you that as long as you don't betray the Ming Dynasty or His Majesty!"

Having said that, Empress Ma no longer looked at Wei Wu, but put her arm around Wei Wu's shoulder and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang.

"No one in the Ming Dynasty can touch you!"

Look, look, what is this? This is a protective amulet sent from heaven!

As we all know, in the Ming Dynasty, Empress Ma's words were sometimes more effective than Zhu Yuanzhang's.

The red seal and iron certificate, the golden medal of immunity from death, are nothing compared to the promise of Queen Ma.

Now, this golden life-saving treasure is finally in his pocket.

From now on, the Ming Dynasty can really do whatever it wants!

Of course, Wei Wu also understood in his heart that the reason why Empress Ma said this was also for the sake of the Ming Dynasty.

She had the same idea as Zhu Yuanzhang, that her existence would surely prolong the Ming Dynasty's life and even make it more glorious.

Although it is exploitation, this is the nature of the world, and it also happens to coincide with Wei Wu's original intention.

An ignorant person would express gratitude at this time, but a sensible person would know when to strike the snake while the stick is still in play.

"No more words, Aunt Ma. I must give you a gift to express my respect for you."

After saying that, Wei Wu flipped his wrist, took out something from the system and handed it to Queen Ma.
