First Prince of Ming Dynasty Chapter 400

  Chapter 400 The storehouse knows the etiquette

  That's why Zhu Yuanzhang is going to let the prince go to the local area to gather military power, let those arrogant soldiers return to their hometown to enjoy the wealth and wealth, and those who are sensible can stay and assist the kings to guard the local area.

  Zhu Biao actually thought about whether to put the second son and the others in the capital, and when they take down Korea and release them outside, let's not mention Lao Zhu's meaning, those younger brothers may also feel resentment.

  After all, the father had already stated that he would let them become kings, but now he was raised in the capital like a pig by his elder brother. The king is not the king, how can they not make trouble?

  As long as they rebelled without knowing it, it is impossible for Zhu Biao to kill them, and Lao Zhu would not allow it. In the end, no one will benefit. Besides, Zhu Biao does not have so many confidants who can guard the place and control the military power.

Not to mention Zhu Biao, Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't have so many trustworthy generals under his command, otherwise he wouldn't let his sons go down. Lao Zhu has also read through the history books. The country is overturned, or his own son is more reliable.

  It's hard for a good woman to cook without rice, so I can only do this first, and Zhu Biao has trained his younger brothers for so long, and he is confident that he can let them do their jobs.

  But as long as he doesn't die, the younger brothers will be younger brothers after all, and there is absolutely no chance of standing up!

  The convoy drove through the barren and dry land. Since half of the grain was left in Qingyang Mansion, there were only 20,000 shi of grain on the grain truck, and their driving speed was faster than before.

   Refugees alive after leaving Fucheng are rare, dilapidated villages are not uncommon, and the corpses lying on the side of the road along the way have been gnawed out of the bones by the same hungry beasts. It is hard to see directly.

   It can be said that the bones are exposed in the wild, there is no rooster crowing for a thousand miles, and there is only one living person, and the thought is heartbreaking!

  The further you go to Pingliang Mansion, the more difficult the road is. The yellow sand everywhere hinders the progress of the grain trucks, and the cattle and horses transporting grain on the loess **** often stumble and fall, and the rough and hot sand hits you head-on.

  Zhu Biao also really felt the harsh living conditions in the Shaanxi-Gansu region, so he set foot on the official road again after a few days and approached Pingliang Mansion, but encountered robbers again.

Who are the robbers is actually just dozens of emaciated and dark disaster victims carrying dilapidated chopping knives. The guards around Zhu Biao and the Chen guy who transported food and drove horses counted nearly a thousand people. Zhu Biao got out of the carriage and looked. He looked at the thief shouting out of breath across the distance.

   "Listen up, everyone on the opposite side, we are the front pawns of Boss Song, the chasing wind thief. If you want to pass the official road, you must leave the food, otherwise, regardless of the number of you, you will die when our boss arrives!"

  Looking at their virtue of fleeing at the slightest sign of trouble, I don't know if they were so hungry that they had the guts to threaten the grain caravan with nearly a thousand people.

  Chen Rongyan beside Zhu Biao said: "It's windy and sandy outside, you should go back to the car and rest, you are just some stupid idiots, I will send them away."

  Zhu Biao looked at their skinny appearance with a frown and said: "You can't even hold a knife steadily, so let's go with two bags of rice. Whether they can make it through depends on their lives."

  If he encounters robbers outside the disaster area, Zhu Biao will definitely kill them all. What he hates the most is that he doesn't know how to keep his own law and oppress good people.

  Zhu Biao gave the order, so naturally no one dared to disobey. Two soldiers of the government army and guard walked over with two bags of rice.

  The two government guards didn't scare them, they threw the rice bag on the ground with a distance of more than ten meters and said: "My son is kind enough to reward you with two bags of rice, save some food and live well."

   After saying that, they turned around and went back. The group of people stared straight at the grain bag, rolled their Adam's apple a few times, and jumped on it. After confirming that it was real grain, everyone was so excited.

  They have been starving for three days. From the time they knelt by the side of the official road to beg, until now they have blocked the road and robbed them, but they have not gotten a single grain of food.

  The one who called out just now muttered in a low voice: "It's really generous, how much food do they have?"

   "Brother..."

Several people looked at each other silently, with greed and madness in their eyes, swallowed their saliva, stood up and shouted loudly: "Stop, I want to send you off with just such a small amount of food, at least leave one cart, no! Two carts !"

  The people behind him were also waving hatchets with red eyes and howling like ghosts and wolves. The two government guards who had just walked away paused, turned around, pulled out their waist knives expressionlessly, and rushed towards them.

The robbers who were fanatical just now suddenly shuddered fiercely, then picked up two bags of food and ran away, all of them looked like hungry wolves chasing and biting their buttocks, and they were full of **** and urine. It's flowing.

  The two guards put their swords back into their sheaths, and one of them, who was younger, said, "You greedy and shameless bastard, third brother, I'll catch up with them on horseback and bring back the food!"

The older one patted him on the shoulder and sighed: "What do you care about with the hungry and dizzy? Don't they want to eat the next meal after a meal? How can they be ashamed if they are hungry? I won't compare myself to them."

  Zhu Biao naturally also heard the shouts of the robbers just now, but he just looked at the book and shook his head and read a sentence.

  Sufficient food and clothing in granaries is a necessary condition for knowing etiquette to lead to honor and disgrace. If the preconditions cannot be met, it would be too difficult to force the people who cannot survive to know etiquette.

After nightfall, set up camp and set up tents, and tomorrow we can go to Pingliang Fucheng. Zhu Biaozheng and Qinglian are eating two dishes and one soup for dinner. Liu An beside him is full of distress. After his godfather's education, he doesn't care whether the victims have food or not. I feel that such a meal is too wronged His Highness.

But Qing Lian couldn't eat anymore. She was flustered when she saw Mr. Chen with a plain face. She was really afraid that Mr. Chen didn't like women. After arriving in Pingliang, if she gave her to others as a gift, she would go back to the situation where the future is uncertain. It's time to let herself go, she has lived enough of these days in Huancai Pavilion, and she is afraid.

   Could it be that the world is so big that there can't be a place that belongs to her?

  A small yard is enough, allowing her to grow flowers and plants, allowing her to read her favorite books, without worrying about when she will be abandoned by others, and don't worry about being tired of playing and giving it to others...

Thinking of the sad place, tears flowed before she spoke, and two lines of tears rolled down Qinglian's face: "Mr. Chen, can you not give away my slave's house? Let me stay in Chen's house to be a maid, please." gone."
