The stupid son of Chongba

Chapter 190: Conferring Zhu Ju the title of clan leader! He can control all the princes, including the crown prince!

"Jungpachi."

Ma Xiuying looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and advised,
"Little Orange is right."

"You are so angry about the whole family. This child, Yu'er, looks 50% like you. How could he not be your own flesh and blood?"

"If you really can't let go of this knot in your heart...just call Taoist Peng Xuan and let him judge. You always believe in his ability, right?"

Zhu Yuanzhang's face darkened.

"it is good!"

"Biao'er, go gather all your brothers and wait for us at the Huagai Palace!"

Obviously, Lao Zhu has suffered a psychological trauma from this incident, and now he needs a thorough investigation!

No matter what, he couldn't accept raising someone else's son!
"Yes, Dad."

Zhu Biao responded and glanced at Zhu Ju, his eyes seemed to say -

Does your master also know this?
Zhu Ju shrugged.

He didn't know what abilities his master had. He only knew that he had only learned the basics so far.

Taoism is truly widely used in all areas of the secular world!
……

After a while.

Inside the Huagai Palace.

"Father suddenly called us here, what is he doing?"

Zhu Gang felt a little uneasy and couldn't help but ask in a low voice,
"Are you going to lecture us again?"

In his impression, every time his father summoned the princes with great fanfare, something bad was bound to happen!
"I do not know either."

Zhu Chong whispered,
"But have you heard? There was a fire in Concubine Ding's palace yesterday, and she and everyone else were burned to death!"

"Oh! Poor Lao Ba... He lost his mother at such a young age."

Upon hearing this, several princes shook their heads and sighed.

In a moment, several young children were also brought in.

I have to say that Mr. Zhu is still in good health. It has only been a few years since the founding of the country, but he already has more than ten sons!

With his body condition, it's only a matter of time before he's born to a child who is already two years old.

The princes were still talking in private, but Zhu Di saw Zhu Yuanzhang coming in, and he quickly bowed and said:

"My son, please see your father!"

Zhu Gang, Zhu Chong and others also reacted quickly and saluted.

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at them and said to the Taoist priest behind him:
"Peng Xuan, take a look!"

The old Taoist Peng Xuan flicked his whisk, fixed his eyes, and looked back and forth at the princes.

Zhu Di was startled when he saw his gaze.

Is this another fortune-telling for them, or what? !

For some reason, he was very resistant to being stared at by Peng Xuan, as if all his thoughts could be seen by Peng Xuan.

After a while.

Peng Xuan retracted his gaze and said with a smile:

"There is no problem with the bloodlines of the princes. Your Majesty does not need to worry."

"Including the Prince of Qi and the Prince of Tan, they are all your own flesh and blood. I can be sure of this."

Zhu Yuanzhang's brows relaxed.

This was naturally the answer he wanted to hear the most.

If any of them is wrong, he will explode!
"Master, how do you judge this?"

Zhu Ju said curiously,
"Why can you tell whether a child is your biological child just by looking at him or her for a few seconds?"

"This is amazing! Can you teach me?"

Coach, I want to learn this too!
Peng Xuan smiled.

"With profound wisdom, one can see past events, the past, and the future."

He explained,

"In the eyes of ordinary people, this is a kind of supernatural power, but in the eyes of practitioners, it is just something that will naturally be possessed when wisdom reaches a certain level. If you find a Buddhist monk who practices precepts, concentration and wisdom, he can actually do it."

"When you have reached a certain level of cultivation in the future, you will naturally have this ability."

"It's just that it's best to use this ability wisely but not in full use. Otherwise, you might get lost in it and go astray, and your progress on the true path will stagnate."

Zhu Ju suddenly understood after hearing this.

"Then you still need it!"

He grinned.

Peng Xuan shook his head helplessly.

"Isn't this because you are in the government and have no control over your own affairs?"

"Your father has issued an order. How dare an old Taoist like me disobey it? After all, if the Taoist sect wants to be revitalized, it still needs the support of your father! As a teacher, I am sacrificing myself for the sake of the sect."

"Of course, this is also for the opportunity to stand at a higher position and benefit more people. The Changchun Patriarch said, 'To cultivate the truth and admire the Tao, one must accumulate merits. If you are not diligent and pious, it is difficult to transcend the ordinary and become a saint. You may work hard in the teachings and get into the dust; or you may work hard in your heart and abandon worldly affairs. But self-denial and keeping the heart in the Tao are the basis for happiness.'"

"Teacher, this is called teaching with great effort, and it is a great cause of dust and labor!"

Zhu Ju nodded and gave a thumbs up.

"Master is still at a higher level."

he praised.

Master Peng Xuan could certainly be a carefree Taoist priest, traveling around the world without any restrictions. With his abilities, he could ignore the emperor.

But why are they still at my beck and call, ready at any time?

Isn't it because he wants to use the power and resources of the royal family to make the sect, or even the entire Taoist sect, more prosperous? In this way, he can save more people!

The sect is working hard, and it is causing great trouble! Who says that you can’t cultivate immortality in the mortal world? This is also the right way to practice!
"Okay, stop talking nonsense!"

Zhu Yuanzhang twisted his beard, interrupted the two men, and ordered,

"Now that you are here, let us take a closer look at which of you are capable of great use and which of you will just be eating and drinking and waiting to die in the future."

"If you tell us, we can spend less time on this and focus on training those who are talented and have potential!"

Peng Xuan felt a little embarrassed when he heard this.

"Your Majesty, I am more accurate in predicting the past, but there are too many variables in the future, so I am not accurate."

He pointed at Zhu Chong and said,
"For example, this prince. When I first saw him, it seemed that he would be extremely tyrannical in the future, and even bring disaster to the people."

"But now looking at him again, the fierceness between his eyebrows has dissipated a lot, and his eyes have become clearer. Looking at him again, he is different from before, not so violent anymore."

Hearing this judgment, Zhu Chong was stunned and subconsciously touched his face.

Clear eyes?

Really?
"Ha! That must have been caused by me beating him up!"

Zhu Ju held his head high and said,

"Dad, you're not praising me for this? I reformed your son who was about to go astray with my heart-warming kicks and ruthless hands!"

"So, people like Zhu Chong must be beaten! You were too doting and indulgent in the past! Just like my master said, after the beating, his eyes will be clear again!"

Zhu Yuanzhang: "..."

Damn, there is such a theory?!
"Zhu Chong, tell me yourself whether it is true or not!"

Zhu Ju stepped forward and patted Zhu Chong on the shoulder, saying carelessly,
"Did my beating completely cure you?"

"So, actually you should thank me! I changed your destiny!"

Zhu Chong: “#￥%……&*@#”

After being hit by Zhu Ju, he grimaced.

What was that beating? He was clearly frightened by Zhu Ju's 'Nightmare Suppression Method'!

But now, he didn't dare to refute...

Facing Zhu Ju, he was already instinctively afraid. At this moment, he said nothing, but just nodded repeatedly.

"Well... you hit the jackpot by accident. Anyway, this is a good thing."

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted and turned to Peng Xuan and said,
"What about the others?"

“Have there been any noticeable changes?”

Peng Xuan's eyes swept across the princes, and when he passed Zhu Gang, he nodded slightly.

"Your Highness Prince Jin is capable enough, but he needs to hone his mind a little more, be more lenient towards others, and be lenient towards servants, not blaming or demanding."

Zhu Gang cupped his hands.

"Thank you, Taoist Priest. I will keep it in mind."

He was quite respectful towards Lao Liu's master.

"It seems that Third Brother is also a little itchy."

Zhu Ju said thoughtfully,
"Come back to my place for some training?"

Zhu Gang: “!!!”

"There's no need!"

Zhu Gang's face changed and he said,

"I have become tolerant now!"

Zhu Ju grinned.

"I just said it casually, Third Brother, don't be nervous."

It seems that I still have a bit of a bad reputation among my brothers.

Peng Xuan's gaze fell on Zhu Di.

Zhu Di clenched his fists slightly, looking a little nervous.

"I have now seen something about His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan... He has a very high talent in military affairs, and is not inferior to the famous generals of ancient and modern times."

After watching for a while, Peng Xuan made a judgment:

"At the beginning, he is also a great general. As for the upper limit..."

Zhu Di was shocked.

"General? Really?"

He showed a look of surprise and quickly changed the subject.
"Father, I am indeed interested in military affairs. My biggest dream is to be like Huo Qubing, conquering the Wolf's Lair and drinking from the vast sea!"

“I don’t know if I’ll have such an opportunity in this lifetime.”

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed.

"Of course there is a chance!"

Old Zhu waved his hand and said,
"In the future, we will march north again and wipe out the Northern Yuan Dynasty! By that time, we will not only be on par with Huo Qubing, but will surpass Huo Qubing!"

"Since you are interested in military affairs, and Taoist Master Peng said that you have talent, then great, we will give you a chance to gain experience in the future!"

Zhu Di had the talent of a general, which was obviously what Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to see.

After all, Zhu Di was positioned as the King of Frontiers, with outstanding military capabilities, and he would definitely be able to better protect the court! And when the emperor needed to start a war, he could also lead the army and become the sharpest spear of the Ming Dynasty!

As I said, it’s more reassuring to have one’s own family as the general!
"Peng Xuan, is there anyone else with military talent? Or other outstanding talents?"

"Pick it out!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said this with great interest, and at this moment he was also somewhat proud.

Look at how high the quality of my sons is! Each one of them is outstanding.

As expected, it’s our species!

Peng Xuan's gaze fell on Zhu Su.

"Your Highness Prince Zhou, hey, have you... have you done any good deeds recently?"

His eyes suddenly lit up and he asked.

Zhu Su was a little confused when he heard this.

"Good deeds?"

"No... I've been reading at home recently, planning to compile a pamphlet. I haven't done anything good."

"What booklet?" Peng Xuan asked.

"It's just a booklet about rations."

Zhu Su said in a deep voice,
"When I went to visit the grave earlier, my grandfather appeared in spirit and encouraged me to do what I wanted to do. The blessings of the Zhu family depended on me. So..."

Peng Xuan frowned.

"Grandpa appeared?"

He was a little confused. At this moment, Zhu Ju quickly stepped forward and tugged at Peng Xuan's clothes.

"Master, last time when we went back to Fengyang to worship our ancestors, my grandfather suddenly appeared in spirit and possessed me, telling me a lot of things!"

Zhu Ju quickly explained,
"Everyone was shocked at the time. There was actually such a thing!"

"You have been practicing incense and walking for so many years. Have you ever encountered a situation where the spirits of your ancestors appeared and possessed the descendants to speak?"

As he spoke, he winked hard at Peng Xuan.

Peng Xuan: “…”

It's easy to figure out with your toes that this guy is just trying to be mysterious!
Don't say it, he is really brave! If this kind of thing is exposed, he will definitely be hung up and beaten by his parents!
“…I haven’t seen it myself, but I’ve heard about it.”

There was nothing he could do at the moment, so he could only help Zhu Ju cover up the lie. At the same time, he was also endorsing the credibility of this daring disciple.

"It seems that this is not an isolated case..."

Zhu Ju breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Zhu Yuanzhang.

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang looked normal, and did not notice anything wrong between the master and the apprentice. Instead, he urged:
"Don't interrupt!"

"Old Five, please continue. So what is it?"

Zhu Su nodded and continued:

"So I focused on reading history books, and found that when there were famines in history, the people were hungry and tried all kinds of ways to find food, such as gnawing on tree bark, eating dead mice, and even in the worst cases, they would even eat their own children!"

"In fact, we don't even need to talk about history. Just take the famine in the past two years as an example. Many people starved to death. Some people were poisoned by eating various poisons. I was thinking... could I write a booklet to tell people what they can and cannot eat during the famine, and what can be processed to fill their stomachs."

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes fixed.

"Old Five, you can do this!"

He was surprised and said,

"Look at what you're saying. Our Zhu family is going to produce a Bodhisattva!"

Upon hearing this, the rest of the people also showed admiration.

If Lao Wu can publish this booklet, he will definitely have immeasurable merits, and it will not be an exaggeration to say that he is a Bodhisattva!
"No... I just thought that I have no other use and can't help my father and brothers, so I thought of this."

Zhu Su had never been praised by his father in person, so he felt a little embarrassed when he was praised this time. He said modestly,
"You don't need any talent for this. You just need to work hard and be careful, and you can do it well and compile the booklet."

"I think... I can still do it."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction.

"You have a good understanding! Our son doesn't have to be able to fight!" he praised.

"As the saying goes, a dragon gives birth to nine sons, and each one is different!"

"Have you finished writing that pamphlet? Can you show it to us?"

Zhu Su's expression straightened up.

"Replying to Father, it has not been fully compiled yet, but part of it has been written."

"I can recite a part of it to you, Father:"

"First, the Grass Department:"

"Thistle is native to Jizhou and can be found everywhere in the plains. The seedlings are more than a foot tall, and the leaves are like endive leaves. The stems and leaves have thorns but the leaves are not wrinkled. There is a flower head in the center of the leaves. It is cool in nature, non-toxic, sweet in taste, and warm in nature. Young seedlings and leaves are picked for famine relief and boiled in water. The taste is very delicious and can remove wind and heat."

"Amaranth - also known as Achyranthes bidentata, grows in the valleys of Henei, Linxian, Jianghuai, Fujian, Guangdong, and Suzhou..."

When talking about the booklet he compiled, Zhu Su was no longer timid. At this moment, he could be said to be eloquent and recited it to everyone.

"Listen."

Peng Xuan pushed Zhu Ju and said in a deep voice,
"What your brother has done is a great deed."

"If it is done, I don't know how many disaster victims can be helped in the future and prevent them from starving to death. The best thing about this booklet is that it is instructive! Ordinary people may not understand it, but with it, the governor can find food in the mountains when relief is insufficient, and thus help more people!"

"You should learn more from him or help him accomplish this. This will be of great benefit to you."

Zhu Ju nodded, and there was a bit more respect in his eyes when he looked at Zhu Su.

Although the fifth brother has poor military ability and only recruited dozens of personal guards, and is too honest in politics, it is rare that he has this heart!

Perhaps thousands of years later, he will be the only one in the Zhu family who will be praised by people!

"Fifth brother, I admire you for doing this."

Zhu Ju cupped his hands and said seriously,

"If you need any help, tell me and I will help you if I can!"

Zhu Yu couldn't help but smile when he heard this.

"it is good."

He didn't expect that he would receive so much praise for such a trivial thing. Even his father praised him for the first time.

This undoubtedly boosted his confidence!
"Well, what you are doing is a good thing, and we support you."

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed,

"When I was digging wild vegetables in the mountains, I was poisoned several times because I didn't know how to identify herbs. Fortunately, I was lucky enough to survive."

"Although we want to create a prosperous Ming Dynasty, to be honest, it is unrealistic to ensure that everyone has enough food and clothing, especially during famines, when people will always starve to death."

"With this booklet of yours, perhaps many lives can be saved."

"Old Fifth, we allow you to browse all the books in the palace. If you want to take them, just take them! If you need any help or need to inspect anything, just tell us and we will send someone to you! You have to edit this book carefully and cover everything!"

"After the book is completed, we will reward you greatly!"

puff.

"Thank you, Father!"

Zhu Su knelt on the ground, looking excited.

As an honest and obscure person, this was the first time for him to feel valued by the emperor! This made him very excited, and he was filled with endless fighting spirit!

Which son doesn't want to be recognized by his father?
"Get up."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly, turned to look at Peng Xuan, and said,
"Lao Peng, please continue."

"It's the sixth one."

Peng Xuan glanced at Zhu Ju.

"Uh...this..."

"Why, you can't give any comments now that it's your apprentice's turn? You can judge as much as you want, but we want to hear the truth!"

Zhu Yuanzhang ordered.

Zhu Ju also looked at Peng Xuan with anticipation, wanting to hear what kind of evaluation his master would give him.

"The bones of His Royal Highness King Wu are actually extremely valuable."

Peng Xuan hesitated for a moment before saying,

"It is precisely because it is so precious that it was hit by such a great disaster! This is what is called blessing and disaster, and disaster and blessing. When the blessing is great, the danger will naturally be great."

"But, as long as we can get through this calamity, we will be like a dragon flying in the sky or a fish swimming in the sea, and we will never be bound by anything again!"

"This is the situation now, Your Highness."

After hearing this, Zhu Ju was a little confused.

Is the original owner's physique so amazing?
He almost understood what his master meant, which was - he was born extremely awesome, and even God did not allow such an awesome person to exist in the Ming Dynasty, so he arranged a great catastrophe!
Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly realized.

"No wonder!"

He said,

"No wonder this kid has done so many great things since he came back. In some ways, he's even smarter than us!"

"I was surprised at first, wondering how a little fool could suddenly become so eloquent, almost like a child prodigy. It turns out he is a genius!"

Although Zhu Ju is a naughty boy, Old Zhu has to admit that he is a man of extraordinary talent!

Let's not talk about anything else, just the temporary cabinet and the cardinal office that the regent had worked on in those few days, that was definitely a very high level of political institution design! Even the structure that he couldn't think of was easily created by Zhu Ju!
I have been using it till now, and not only have there been no problems, it is also very easy to use!
He even wanted to remove the word "temporary"! Just list the Cabinet and the Cardinal Office as the official institutions of the Ming Dynasty!
There is also his method of training soldiers, and his unexpected and eye-catching remarks...

This kid is really talented!
And it is possible that he is even better than Zhu Biao! Zhu Yuanzhang would not say this out loud, but he really thought so in his heart.

"Yes, that's right. This is also one of the reasons why I brought him back to Sanqing Mountain."

Peng Xuan flicked his whisk and said with a smile,
"Destined to be an emperor for three lifetimes, a top scholar for seven lifetimes!"

"This is the root of becoming an immortal. It would be a pity if you don't learn Taoism and cultivate immortality."

Destined to be an emperor for three lifetimes and a top scholar for seven lifetimes!
Hearing this comment, everyone present was shocked!
Even Zhu Yuanzhang was slightly stunned!
I thought this kid was lucky, but I didn’t expect... to be this lucky!
"So awesome?"

At this moment, even Zhu Ju himself scratched his head.

However, it seems that the original owner did not overcome that hurdle, but was possessed by his own soul...

Is this considered as a profit for myself? !
"This is just a metaphor from Patriarch Sanfeng."

Peng Xuan smiled and said,

"It doesn't mean that you can be the emperor for three lifetimes or the top scholar for seven lifetimes."

"This is just a judgement for superior talents. But in fact, according to the ancestors, one must accumulate merits and blessings as great as 'three generations of emperors and seven generations of top scholars' to have the possibility of becoming an immortal. Your great blessings are just a good foundation and a high starting point. If you squander them without restraint and do not accumulate merits, you still cannot become an immortal."

"understand?"

Zhu Ju then nodded.

"I said..."

"I'm so narcissistic, but I don't think I'm that awesome."

"But, it will definitely be possible in the future!"

He grinned, full of confidence!

You can travel through time and space. As long as you find the right method and route, you can definitely become an immortal!
"Okay, stop talking about this kid."

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and scolded,

"If you keep praising him, his fox tail will really rise to the sky!"

"Let's talk about the next one. How are the Seventh and Eighth Old Men?"

Peng Xuan glanced over.

"Your Highness the Prince of Chu is also a talented general..."

"Your Highness the Prince of Qi..."

The latter ones were not as powerful as the former ones. Peng Xuan also made a few casual comments, but emphasized that they should cultivate good character and not be violent.

I have to say that his judgment is quite accurate. Among Lao Zhu's sons, there are indeed a few "human-like" creatures who can be described as "tyrannical and unjust" in the future.

"It seems that most of them have military talents, which is consistent with our positioning of them."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly and said,
"The second, third, fourth, and seventh and eighth."

"It seems that these boys need to be trained in military strategy. It is useless to just study in the main hall! As future frontier vassal kings, military ability is more important!"

"Biao'er, who do you think is best to teach them?"

Zhu Biao pondered for a moment.

"When it comes to military strategy, Uncle Xu is naturally second to none."

He replied,
"It's just that Uncle Xu has a serious carbuncle on his back now, and I don't know how he is doing."

Peng Xuan heard this and quickly replied:

"General Xu is now out of danger after my treatment."

"As long as the swelling of the back carbuncle subsides, the danger will be very small. With the help of decoctions and medicine, it will be back to normal in half a month at most."

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his eyebrows.

"So fast?"

"You are a miracle doctor!"

He didn't expect that the back carbuncle that made Xu Da confess to begging for bones could be solved so easily by Peng Xuan!
It's a pity for this guy to be a Taoist priest. He should be transferred to the Imperial Medical Bureau to be the director!

"It's just that I have accumulated some experience after years of wandering around the world."

Peng Xuan said modestly,
"Besides, General Xu's back carbuncle is not a serious disease. It just develops very quickly and is very painful."

"Even if I am not here, with the treatment of the imperial physician, a clean environment and abstinence, he will slowly get better."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.

Xu Da was not seriously injured, which was a reassurance to him.

After all, if he were to lead the Northern Expedition again in the future, he would still have to rely on Xu Da to lead the army! Without him, the Ming army really couldn't find anyone who could lead the three armies!

"Sixth Brother, your father-in-law is better now. You should bring Miaoyun back to visit him."

Zhu Yuanzhang said,

"Tell him about this matter by the way. Of course, we won't force him."

"The main thing is to focus on his own body. Everything else is secondary."

Zhu Ju heaved a sigh of relief when he heard his master's words.

Old Xu finally made it through this hurdle, and the debt of his self-torture strategy... was almost paid off.

"Okay, I'll bring Miaoyun back home tomorrow."

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at the princes and said in a deep voice:
"You are our sons, the princes of the Ming Dynasty!"

"We won't allow any of you to be called a waste or an unlearned dandy! Every one of you must be useful!"

"As a vassal king, the first thing you need to explore is military talent! All we ask of you is that you protect the Ming Dynasty for generations to come! But if you really don't have any, you can do something meaningful like Lao Wu and become a person who will be remembered for generations to come. That's fine, too!"

"In a nutshell, the Ming imperial family does not support idle people!"

"As for your character... I just heard from the Taoist priest that there are actually quite a few of you with violent tempers! Why don't you usually show it in front of me, but in your own home, you are all domineering and lawless?"

The princes were startled.

"Especially you, second brother!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said coldly,

"We heard that people always die in your office! And the dead are slaves!"

"How did they all die? Don't tell us that they all died of illness! Why don't so many people die of illness in other places, but only in your place? Is there a plague or something in your Qin Palace?!"

Zhu Xi: "!!!"

With a thud, Zhu Chong fell to his knees.

"Reply...Reply to Father!"

"My son... my son is no longer dead! Really!"

"Before...it was all accidents!"

He kept defending himself.

However, when Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he snorted coldly.

"Accident? Humph, just treat it as an accident!"

Old Zhu said,
"Accidents like this seem to have become less frequent since Old Six cured you last time, right?"

"It seems that your previous rage was not completely without benefit, Old Six. It would be good if someone could teach you a lesson, and teach you guys a lesson for not treating slaves and servants as human beings!"

Swish!
As he spoke, he turned his gaze to Zhu Ju.

"Sixth!"

"You are quite good at managing people, so I will give you this power!"

Zhu Yuanzhang ordered:

"From today on, you are the clan leader of the Ming Dynasty! You are in charge of all matters concerning the royal family! Except for me, all other members of the royal family are under your jurisdiction. If you think anyone has a problem, you can punish them directly!"

The princes: "!!!"

If we let Lao Liu, the living devil, take care of them, what good will it be?
At this moment, Zhu Chong, in particular, was so frightened that his face turned pale and even his body was trembling.

He had already begun to anticipate the fear of being dominated by Zhu Ju!
"Haha, I got it!"

Zhu Ju smiled brightly, grinning at the princes,

"Brothers, I am very strict with people!"

"I'll buy you another whip later. You all should be careful. If you have bad habits, you'd better tuck your tail between your legs and behave yourself. Otherwise, my little whip won't recognize you!"

The princes: "￥%...&*@#!!!"

"Okay, Little Orange, don't scare them."

Seeing that his brothers looked unhappy, Zhu Biao advised them,
"We are all brothers. If you can persuade them, try not to use force to avoid damaging the relationship."

"My younger brothers are relatively obedient. Look, the second brother has corrected himself a lot now! So, we should still use persuasion as the main method. Violence is always the inferior method."

Zhu Ju glanced at Zhu Biao.

"Dad, you said you can take care of everything except you."

"Can you help me, brother?"

Zhu Biao: "???"

What does this kid mean?!

You even want to take care of yourself?!
"Your eldest brother is weak and cannot be whipped, but if he is wrong in any way, you can scold him."

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted and said,
"For example, his kind nature needs to be trained!"

"People in our Zhu family must be tough! We can't be soft as a persimmon! Otherwise, we will be taken advantage of!"

"On this point, he needs to learn from you, or you should be more like me!"

Zhu Ju chuckled.

"Hey, brother...did you hear that?"

"Even if you are my big brother, I will beat you up if you piss me off!"
