Chapter 21 A warrior rules the country every day
But can His Highness the Crown Prince know how to use provocation?
They shook their heads, quite sure, probably not yet.
That’s telling the truth.
However, the effect was good. They looked at the young men who were starting to become restless.
The only flaw is that His Highness the Prince's words are a bit hard to describe.
‘Your Highness, the superior knows astronomy and the inferior knows geography. The blue is better than the blue. ’ Li Xunhuan couldn’t help but send a message.
‘Got it. ’ Zhu Houzhao replied casually, he had also learned how to transmit sounds.
A pair of eyes still looked at the young men sideways, disdainfully.
After all, he is still young, and in the past, almost all of them were in the powerful class, loved and supported by thousands of people.
Faced with these merciless words, even His Highness the Crown Prince, many young men could not bear it.
Even more intolerable.
If you endure it any longer, you will lose all face in front of His Majesty and the Crown Prince.
"I, Duke Mu Kun of the State of Guizhou, have come to see Your Highness. Although I am not as brave as my grandfather, I am by no means weak. I am willing to learn from His Highness." A young man stood up and saluted with a heroic gesture. Bo Fa said.
This is also the one with the highest status among many young people.
The old Duke of Guizhou passed away last year, and the fifteen-year-old Mu Kun just inherited the title of Duke of Guizhou this year.
Because of this, the young men made a tacit agreement to let him stand up first.
"I, the Duke of Wei, Xu Bikui, have come to see Your Highness. I would like to discuss with Your Highness." An older young man stood up immediately.
"Zhu Lin, the Duke of Chengguo, has come to see His Highness and is willing to discuss matters with His Highness." A young man about the same age as Xu Bikui saluted.
"Xu Guangzuo, the Duke of Dingguo, has come to see His Highness and would like to discuss with His Highness." The fourth young man saluted.
"I would like to discuss with His Highness." Then, more than fifty young men aged fourteen or fifteen years old saluted.
‘Wei Guogong, Ding Guogong, Qian Guogong, Cheng Guogong, Ying Gong, Bao Guogong, the six major princes have a prince and three heirs.
There are currently no heirs of suitable age in the British and Baoguo mansions.
As expected, the hierarchy in the noble army is even stricter. All the nobles are probably headed by the six major princes.
However, this is only when the overall interests of the nobles are involved. The contradiction between them is definitely not small, and it is not impossible to break them down one by one. ’ Wang Shouren watched quietly, thinking in his heart.
"My prince, it doesn't matter whether you are from the Duke's Palace, Marquis or Earl's Palace.
In my eyes, you are all the same. Anyway, you are not as big as me.
Everyone talks to me first. Let’s have a fight,” Zhu Houzhao shouted as he geared up.
After saying that, before his voice could finish, he stepped forward and rushed towards Mu Kun, who was the first to speak.
The little figure, who was shorter than everyone present, was so fast that Mu Kun and others were shocked and could not see clearly at all.
Mu Kun didn't have time to think or dodge. He put his arms in front of him to protect himself when he felt a huge force coming over him.
“Boom!”
There was a roar in the air, and Mu Kun flew backwards and fell into the crowd.
Before he could feel ashamed, another figure flew up.
It’s Xu Bikui.
Then, one after another.
Zhu Houzhao's figure was like a shadow, rushing toward the young men like lightning.
The speed is so fast that they are completely unable to dodge.
Then he punched him.
No one can resist.
One after another, or several at the same time, they flew up.
They did not dare to join forces to besiege the prince.
Soon, more than fifty people who had just spoken were blown away one by one.
However, Zhu Houzhao did not use his full strength. In addition, these young men all had extraordinary backgrounds and practiced martial arts, which was not comparable to ordinary people. Therefore, after being blasted away, they only felt pain and endured it.
It’s just that they all have a look of shame more or less on their faces.
Although I have known for a long time that His Highness the Crown Prince has mastered the Mingshen Martial Arts and is already in the innate state, he is only six years old after all.
They were just punched away, and their faces didn’t look good at all.
Young men still need to have face.
Those who did not take action, those who were younger, looked at the legendary Crown Prince with expressions of shock and admiration.
Awesome!
"It's boring." Zhu Houzhao's face was a little unhappy. With so many people, he thought there would be a few people with the strength of Lao Yan, Lao Zhao, Xiao Tianzi, and Xiao Qinzi, but he didn't expect there to be any. It was far from enough.
"I have let your Highness down, please punish me." Mu Kun took the lead and saluted with shame.
"Please punish me, Your Highness." The others followed suit and bowed their heads.
“Hmph, I have surpassed Taizu Taizu, but you are not even one-tenth, no, one percent of your ancestors. I am really disappointed.
How can I lead you to dominate the world in the future?" Zhu Houzhao said angrily with his hands on his hips.
There is quite a posture of hating iron for not being able to become steel.
The faces of the young men became even more ashamed, and their heads bowed even lower.
Has His Highness the Crown Prince surpassed the original Taizu Taizong at this stage?
They don’t know, but the prince behaves so evil, so he must be good.
Are they now as good as one percent of their ancestors?
I think it should be comparable, after all, it is only one percent.
But how can you say this in front of the monster-like six-year-old prince? Most of the arrogance I had at home in the past was now suppressed.
Those who are younger dare not say anything more.
“Starting from tomorrow, I will fight with you every day. You can join us.
I would like to see if you can make any progress under my guidance. "Zhu Houzhao seemed to have thought of something and said loudly and expectantly.
Mu Kun and other people in the Duke's Mansion felt their scalps numb and at the same time felt heavy and pressured.
First of all Not to mention the fact that His Highness the Crown Prince had to beat them every day, the Crown Prince obviously meant what he said and would treat them all equally.
And if their performance was not as good as that of the Marquis and Earl's Mansion. , Where is the face of the Duke's Palace?
In the future, the weight in His Majesty's heart will be gone.
The young men in the Marquis and Earl's Mansion, especially those whose status in the manor was not that high, were somewhat excited in their hearts.
This is their chance.
If we can really win the favor of His Highness the Crown Prince...
The young people over ten years old in the Xungui family already know a lot.
"I will not disappoint His Highness." Under the leadership of Mu Kun, Xu Bikui and others, all the young men said in unison.
"Let's all go to class." Zhu Houzhao waved his hand and said with satisfaction.
"Yes." The young men bowed again and, led by several eunuchs, went to a side hall of the East Palace.
In front of the side hall, several figures have been watching here for a long time.
The leader was an old man about fifty years old. He smiled with satisfaction: "His Royal Highness saved a lot of effort by beating him like this."
"The Duke That's what I said, but if His Royal Highness fights with them every day, I'm afraid many people will be injured and the class will be delayed." A middle-aged man behind the old man said slightly worriedly.
"The courses can be supplemented. What is needed most in the army?
Courage.
Being beaten by His Highness the Crown Prince can best train the courage of these spoiled young men." The old man He shook his head and said seriously.
The rest nodded and said no more.
"Let's go and teach these little guys a second lesson." The old man turned around with a stern tone in his tone.
···
"Gong Baoguo taught them the art of war. Is Duke Baoguo good?" Zhu Houzhao asked Wang Shouren curiously.
"Dong Bao has been fighting with the old Duke since he was young. He has rich experience. There will be no problem in teaching these young people." Wang Shouren said calmly.
“Let’s go and have a look.” Zhu Houzhao rolled his eyes and became interested.
Wang Shouren did not stop him, and the group came to the side hall.
After watching for a while, Zhu Houzhao lost interest.
Bao Guogong’s teachings are very simple, and more than a hundred young people endorsed them in the first lesson.
Memorize a book of war.
No explanation, just memorization.
At the same time, holding a cane in hand, he patrolled back and forth. If anyone was distracted, he would hit the cane and show no mercy. From time to time, young people screamed.
Zhu Houzhao showed no interest and left.
"Your Highness, do you want to learn the art of war?" Wang Shouren said suddenly on the way out.
"Learn the art of war? I am the most powerful by nature, so why should I learn any art of war?" Zhu Houzhao said proudly.
"If you don't learn the art of war, how can you lead an army of millions?" Wang Shouren said calmly.
Zhu Houzhao blinked, it seemed to make sense.
Thinking of what I just saw, I felt a little resistant: "This prince is studying the art of war. Do you have to memorize the book?"
"Your Highness is different from them. There is no need to memorize the book of war.
I can do it for your highness. Tell a lot of stories about marching and fighting." Wang Shouren said with a smile.
"Okay, tell me the prince quickly." Zhu Houzhao suddenly became interested and took the lead and ran towards the main hall.
‘Brother, His Highness the Crown Prince should sit in the court and learn the art of war. This? ’ Li Xunhuan asked in confusion.
No one, including him, wanted the future prince to personally lead the army.
The Tumubao Incident of that year really caused great losses to the Ming Dynasty.
Not only that, in his opinion, there is no need to take risks.
‘With His Highness’ temperament, there will definitely be a personal expedition in the future, and no one can stop it.
If you march in person, there will actually be other generals leading the army.
Your Highness does not need to be able to command thousands of troops.
As long as you keep in mind the reasons for the failure of personal expeditions by previous emperors, you can avoid doing it again. ’ Wang Shouren said meaningfully.
‘Brother, good meeting. ’ Li Xunhuan pondered for a moment and then said in admiration.
···
At the same time, the East Palace was lively, and the outer court was equally, or even more, lively.
Emperor Hongzhi, who had always been kind and friendly to civil servants, made a sudden move and directly confused the civil servants in the court.
Select young men of suitable age among the nobles to study with the prince.
It is still such a large scale with more than a hundred people.
What does Your Majesty want to do?
This is to let the prince reuse military generals in the future and let the warriors rule the country.
How could your Majesty do this?
This move directly offends their sore spots, and warriors will never be allowed to rule the country.
