Time Travel: After Seizing the Throne, I Lead the Ming Dynasty to Take Off

Planting flowers and grass, smelting ceramics...

It is not only to conceal the fact that he is refining glass and growing sweet potatoes, but also to make some people feel more at ease about him.

Otherwise, as soon as he came to power, he would have recruited people from the army and the candidates for the military examination, and brought the Jinyiwei under his command. It is impossible that the Huaixi nobles had no ideas.

This is something that has to be done.

The nave on the other side.

Zhu Yuanzhang was bored and took a cake from in front of his own tablet and put it into his mouth. While eating, he looked through the window at the brightly lit front hall and nodded with satisfaction. On the window of the front hall, the figure standing up behind the dragon desk was faintly reflected.

"good."

"Growing flowers and plants, smelting ceramics, although it may be a bit of a distraction, fortunately this child has not neglected government affairs."

"Reviewing memorials late into the night is considered diligent work."

"According to Ren Hengtai, he usually handles state affairs with ministers in the court very well, and sometimes even has some clever ideas that we haven't thought of."

Zhu Yuanzhang murmured to himself with a smile.

Just as he stretched and was about to rest.

From the direction of the Qianqing Palace's front hall, he heard the faint voice of a young eunuch guarding the gate, announcing, "Your Majesty, the Duke of Liang requests an audience."

This time he ascended the throne with the help of the nobles from Huaixi.

Zhu Yunhuan did not offer any substantial benefits, so he gave Lan Yu empty titles and privileges, such as appointing Lan Yu as the Prince's Grand Tutor, granting him the right to enter the palace to meet the emperor at any time... and other empty things.

If it is during the day when there are many people and the place is crowded, the sound will naturally not be able to reach the central hall.

However, it was late at night and everything was quiet. Although the sound was very small, Zhu Yuanzhang in the middle hall still caught it.

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned: "Lan Yu?"

"Is there something that can't be discussed during the day? Why are you running to the Palace of Heavenly Purity in the middle of the night? I don't think it's a small matter."

"Lan Yu... the Huaixi general..."

Zhu Yuanzhang threw another piece of cake into his mouth, leaned on the window crack and looked towards the front hall with a thoughtful expression on his face.

After a pause, he seemed to have figured something out.

His eyes glared, and he took a deep breath, thinking to himself, "These Huaixi generals are getting restless! According to Ren Hengtai, Yun Hun has publicly bestowed titles like Crown Prince and Grand Tutor upon these Huaixi generals..."

"It's been several days since that night. They've probably calmed down by now. They're here to ask for favors from him!"

"They are greedy, and it's no use scolding or spanking them repeatedly."

"You can't expect them to be honest all the time!"

"Huaixi nobles, scholars, and frontier princes... Yunhu has achieved an extremely delicate balance among these various forces. But if this balance is broken... for Yunhu, who actually has no foundation, it will be very bad!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking in his mind, and suddenly all his sleepiness disappeared. He stretched his neck and stared in the direction of the front hall of the Qianqing Palace.

Think of this.

His heart couldn't help but rise, and he felt nervous for Zhu Yunhuan.

Unfortunately.

He could only see vague shadows on the window paper, and had no idea what happened or what was said in the front hall.

It was far less convenient than hiding behind the curtains that night.

……

The front hall of the Qianqing Palace.

Hear the eunuch's report.

Zhu Yunhuan raised his eyebrows, his eyes stern: "Announce."

Ma Sanbao frowned and said, "It's late at night, and His Majesty has been busy all day. Duke Liang..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Zhu Yunhuan's sneer: "Oh, they can't help but come to me to ask for benefits, but I didn't expect them to be so impatient."

His lower eyelid twitched slightly.

There was an inexplicable complex meaning on the smiling face, and a sharpness was faintly visible in the eyes.

“This…what should I do?!”

Ma Sanbao was so scared that he took a deep breath and frowned tightly.

He had watched Zhu Yunhuan gradually control the various forces in the court, and he knew that this required a delicate balance. Originally, there was no problem, but within a few days, something unexpected happened with the Huaixi nobles...

Thinking of this, Ma Sanbao suddenly became anxious.

However, when he subconsciously looked at Zhu Yunhuan, he found that there was no sign of panic on his master's face.

Zhu Yunhuan put his hands behind his back, his expression very calm.

He has always believed in a saying: In everything, preparation is the key to success, while lack of preparation leads to failure.

Although the Huaixi nobles changed their minds earlier than he expected, a few days were enough for him to get the result of turning stone into gold - glass

At this moment.

Outside the door came the sound of the gatekeeper's footsteps coming and going, accompanied by another slightly arrogant footstep.

Soon the vermilion lacquered door was opened.

Lan Yu stepped over the threshold of the Qianqing Palace, closed the door, and bowed with his fists clasped: "Your Majesty!"

Zhu Yunhuan suppressed his other expressions, pretended to be surprised, and reached out to support him lightly, saying, "There are no outsiders here, uncle, why are you arguing with me about the relationship between monarch and subject?"

Lan Yu smiled happily when he heard this.

He straightened up immediately, and at least said a few words modestly: "Hey~ You are the new emperor of our Ming Dynasty, the relationship between monarch and subject must still be discussed!"

Zhu Yunxun said with a chuckle, "I wonder why Uncle came to see me so late at night? If there was anything, Uncle could have just sent someone to let me know. Why did you come in the middle of the night?"

Lan Yu felt embarrassed when he heard this.

But who was Lan Yu? — The arrogant and fierce general who gave even Zhu Yuanzhang a headache. He would feel embarrassed, but not for long.

After a pause, he said bluntly, "I'm sure Your Majesty hasn't forgotten what I said in the Qianqing Palace a few days ago?"
