The sky was slightly bright, the morning light slowly opened the curtain, and it was another gorgeous and colorful morning.

But Xu Mingwu stayed awake all night, and watched "Chongzhen Record" all night with black panda eyes.

He found that the records since Chongzhen nine years later, the more he looked, the more people felt that they were under the butcher's knife, but there was an inexplicable excitement in his heart, and he felt happy to kill thieves.

If you think about it carefully, none of the people killed by the prince are good things, they are either profiteers or misguided ministers and traitors.

I have to say that the compilation of this record has greatly tested the historian's writing skills and rendering ability.

The most important thing is that the historian wrote the relationship between Emperor Chongzhen and the crown prince very well, the father is kind and filial to the son, and it is very touching.

The two of them are not only like brothers who have died, but also like a lonely old man who has been left behind and bullied, the son of the god of war returns, and the 100,000 Chinese army is angry......

Xu Mingwu once suspected that the crown prince Zhu Cihong was a traverser, but he quickly vetoed it.

Because he feels that things are not so apparent, there must be a deeper truth waiting for him to excavate!

In his cognition, how could the emperor be in business? Especially the Ming Emperor who has been fooled for generations! The crown prince is even more impossible!

And throughout the history books, except for the prince's love of killing, his other performances are very decent.

To describe it in a sentence recorded in "Chongzhen Record": "The prince is fair-skinned and beautiful, good at coping, his feet and bones are double, and he loves him very much...... When the prince came out of the cabinet, Gui saw the ministers, and he did not lose his size. ”

If it is a traverser, how can it be decent and deal with it like a stream?

If it were him, Xu Mingwu felt that he would definitely not be able to be so chic......

"It must be the one who crossed the line to help this prince Kuang help Daming!"

Xu Mingwu clarified his thoughts a little: the traverser came to Daming, and he created well-known brands such as Tokugawa hot pot and Jinjiang Star through advanced thinking and cognition.

There is also a newspaper, that train or something, especially the emergence of the steam engine, which has improved productivity, so that Shen Wansan, who crossed his peers and became the Ming Dynasty!

Machine production, in the prosperous Jiangnan of the textile industry, can throw off more than a dozen streets of handicraft industry, Xu Mingwu thinks that it is no problem to become the richest man with this thing.

The important thing is that this "Shen Wansan" borrowed from the fate of Shen Wansan in the Hongwu Dynasty, acted in a low-key manner, and did not help the suspicious Emperor Chongzhen, but secretly supported the young prince Zhu Cihong, taught him to do things step by step, and changed his thinking.

Children are the easiest to transform, Xu Mingwu thinks that if he is himself, he will also learn popular topics such as "Hui Ming", find a little prince to train him, he can be both a background and a little brother, so it is the safest!

The core that supports Xu Mingwu's point of view is: The main difficulty in the late Ming Dynasty is that there is no money, if there is a rich and rival country to help, the crown prince Zhu Cihong has natural political capital, and it is natural to turn things around!

But this guy has been transformed too thoroughly, he kills people so happily, and it makes people look scary between the lines!

Xu Mingwu concluded that the traverser was definitely not a fuel-efficient lamp, but he could train the gentle prince Zhu Cihong into a generation of iron-blooded emperors, bulls!

Xu Mingwu made up his mind, he must go to Tokugawa hot pot when he has time, find out the owner behind them, and meet that peer!

Looking for him, not for the sake of the old countrymen, but purely for the sake of making a fortune!

Xu Mingwu also made up his mind, not to reveal his identity first, lest one mountain not tolerate two tigers, and he would be strangled in the cradle!

......

Xu Mingwu stretched, got up and walked out of the study and walked a few steps.

A middle-aged woman came over with a brass basin, half-squatted and bowed, and then served him to wash her face.

Xu Mingwu was still thinking about things, wiped his hands casually, handed over the towel, and said, "Thank you, please have a glass of milk!" ”

When the middle-aged woman heard this, she was first surprised, and then said in a loud voice: "Second young master, I said that you are such an adult, what kind of milk do you eat?" ”

Xu Mingwu was stunned for a moment, only to find that the aunt standing next to him was the aunt who "followed" him yesterday, and it seemed to be his "personal maid"!

He held his forehead with his hand, and he couldn't bear to look at it directly, as if the expression of the empty boy when he outwitted the four aunts.

Xu Mingwu just wanted to forcibly explain two sentences, but when the savior came, he hurriedly greeted him with a smile: "Good morning, auntie!" ”

Zhao was smiling, but a trace of inexplicable brilliance flashed in his pupils, and he felt fresh about the way he invited his concubine.

Zhao smiled and said: "I heard that Wu'er studied all night last night, and the eldest lady was distressed, so she specially asked the cook to make snacks for you." ”

The aunt next to her suddenly said: "Madam, don't you know, the second young master just had to drink milk!" ”

Xu Mingwu coughed violently a few times, trying to hide his aunt's voice, and glared at her a few times.

The aunt replied without showing weakness, and her expression was quite arrogant.......

Zhao smiled lightly, beckoned to the little maid behind him, and said, "Xiao Ju, you will stay and serve the second young master in the future." ”

The little maid has a delicate face, her skin is as white as snow, her face is smooth and tender, but her height is a little different, and her age looks like she is only fifteen or sixteen years old.

Xiao Ju stepped forward, his face was slightly red, and he said softly: "I've seen the second young master......."

Seeing her so well-behaved, Xu Mingwu couldn't help but have complicated thoughts in his heart.

"Madame....... The second young master has always been my ......"

The old mother still wanted to be reasonable, but was stopped by Zhao's smile and raised her head.

"Thank you, auntie!"

Xu Mingwu was secretly happy, and the secret way was still considerate to the eldest lady.

Listen to the newly accepted younger brother Xu Fu said, Zhao is the wife of the cheap father Xu Qingshan, the two became married at the age of fourteen, Chongzhen during the war and chaos, and natural disasters, the family starved to death several times, and the thieves also arrested Zhao's brothers and sisters, and there is no whereabouts so far.

It wasn't until Xu Qingshan joined the prince's Tianwu Army that the Xu family's life got better, and since then, Xu Qingshan has been prosperous all the way to the top.

Zhao is a marquise, but usually dressed plainly, gentle and generous, Xu Mingwu saw the glorious side of ancient Chinese women from her.

After a while, tea and snacks came up, and the two sat opposite each other in the hall chatting and chatting.

Zhao asked where Xu Mingwu had been in the past two days? Is there suffering? Why was he arrested by Dongchang again? Is it a crime? Did you leave a bad record......

Xu Mingwu was speechless, and simply coped with the past, but fortunately, the Zhao family did not have a mother-in-law to continue to ask.

After the two were silent for a moment, Zhao's eyes were gentle, and he suddenly smiled: "Wu'er, do you want to think about the relationship with Uncle Dingyuan's family?" ”

"What's the marriage?"

Xu Mingwu was stunned, as soon as he came, he would send his wife? Is the treatment so good?

Zhao opened his lips to speak, but stopped, and then stabilized his expression, and said with a slight smile: "Your father once had a baby with the Qi family of Dingyuan, and now you are not young, and the little lady of the Qi family is also about to reach the legal age of marriage in our Ming Dynasty, I mean, you have to give an explanation to your father and the Qi family in this matter, and you must not run away from home in anger.......

Xu Mingwu's eyes rolled slightly, arranged marriages in the old society?

At the same time, he also seems to understand that the former owner of this body, how did he not run away from marriage?

How ugly is the other party, so that a young man of sixteen or seventeen years old and in his prime can be forced to commit suicide by jumping into the river?

Xu Mingwu replied with a smile: "Auntie, I want to think about this matter again......."

When Zhao heard this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, as soon as the child mentioned this matter before, he expressed his resolute attitude on the spot not to marry.

Well, now, this kid has finally opened his mind! No wonder you want to drink milk!

As he was talking, a majestic voice suddenly came from the gate of the inner courtyard: "You think about a fart!" ”

Who is this, talking so much?

Xu Mingwu turned his face very unpleasantly, but saw an old man who looked to be in his forties standing at the door with his head held high.

The old man's face was solemn, his facial features were quite upright, and he had a four-inch beautiful hair on his chin, and he looked human, especially the big red robe, which made Xu Mingwu feel that this old man was making a movie at a glance, and he was a little festive.

Xu Ershao shouted in the tone of a well-known director: "Hey, who are you?" Who told you to break into the inner courtyard? ”

The old man's eyebrows gradually became deeper, and his temperament became more and more serious, so he stared at Xu Mingwu without speaking.

Zhao tugged at Xu Ershao's clothes, then turned around and took a half step forward, bowed, and whispered softly to the old man: "The concubine has seen Master Hou." ”

"Damn, it's over......"

Xu Qingshan stepped forward quickly, helped Zhao and said in a harmonious voice: "Fifth sister, we have been married for thirty years, why are you still so ......?"

Zhao said: "The Hou Ye official is in uniform, that is, the official of the court, and the concubine does not dare to desecrate the court, breaking the rules." ”

Xu Qingshan said helplessly: "Okay, okay, I'll go to the back hall to change clothes." ”

As he spoke, he turned his head and glared at Xu Mingwu fiercely, and shouted, "Go to my study and wait!" ”

After all, Xu Houye is a perennial leader of the troops, and he reprimanded people with full majesty, and his voice was also penetrating, which frightened Xu Mingwu at once, making him have the illusion of meeting a big leader in the army, and hurriedly bowed his head and left.
