Behind Zhao Wen, there are some flour, rice and some canned food packed in sacks.
In addition to these, there are some cotton cloths piled up next to them.
Zhao Wen stood up from his chair and looked at the servants in the yard.
"Today is New Year's Eve, and tomorrow is Spring Festival. You have worked hard for a year at my General Military Mansion, so I am going to reward you with some food and other supplies." Zhao Wen said.
Every year during the Chinese New Year, Zhao Wen would reward the servants in the mansion, no matter male or female, they would reward them.
"Thank you, my lord!" The servants in the yard thanked each other and hurriedly saluted.
"Get up." Zhao Wen pointed to the butler standing in front of these servants, "I will leave these things to you. Remember, it must be fair and just. If anyone comes to me and says you are partial, But don't blame me for being rude!"
The butler saluted and said with a smile on his face: "My lord, how dare I do such a thing, don't worry, my lord, I will definitely be fair and just!"
"In that case, I'll leave it to you!" Zhao Wen nodded and sat down again.
The butler walked up to these servants and took out a booklet from his pocket.
This booklet was drawn up by the steward before, and it recorded the rewards for every servant in the mansion.
"Zhang Tie, two bags of flour, one bag of rice, and three pieces of cotton cloth!"
The butler looked at the names on the roster and his rewards, and read them aloud.
As soon as the voice fell, a man came out with a smile on his face.
He walked up to Zhao Wen, saluted respectfully, and then stood beside him, distributing supplies after reading.
There are more than 30 servants in the General Military Mansion, and after the housekeeper finished reading, almost a quarter of an hour passed.
It stands to reason that for Zhao Wen's level, there are more than these servants in the mansion, but Zhao Wen feels that he doesn't often live in the General Military Mansion, and there are not so many things in the mansion, so he only keeps these many people.
At this time, Zhao Wen stood up, "The next thing is to distribute the supplies, you all line up one by one, don't worry, everyone has a share."
"Thank you, Commander General, for the reward!" These servants thanked Zhao Wen in unison.
Because the bags containing flour and rice were relatively large, these servants couldn't take their belongings away for a while, so they piled up the things distributed to them in the yard.
These servants are in an employment relationship with Zhao Wen, not slaves, so these people basically have their own families outside.
In other places in Ming Dynasty, the servants of the mansion are basically the sons of the mansion's family, they are the servants of the mansion, they are of low status, and they are not allowed to live outside.
After these servants put their things in the yard, they found a tricycle or a flatbed truck to transport the things sent by Zhao Wen out of the General Military Mansion and to their homes.
After transporting these things, these people returned to the General Military Mansion.
Although they have a place to live outside, the place where they live is basically their family members.
Because of their special status, they basically seldom live in their own homes.
After Zhao Wen finished dealing with this matter, he came to the study, ready to deal with some things.
But before he walked into the study, his eldest son Zhao Mingyu ran out of the study on his two calves.
"Daddy, play with me, play with me!" Zhao Mingyu ran behind Zhao Wen, hugged Zhao Wen's thigh, and kept acting like a baby.
"Father still has things to do, go and play by yourself!" Zhao Wen squatted down, stroked his son's head, and said earnestly.
"No, no, I want Daddy to play with me, I want Daddy to play with me! Daddy is often not at home, and Daddy is finally at home, so I want Daddy to play with me, otherwise, I don't know when Daddy will be able to play with me." I'll play!" Zhao Mingyu kept stepping on his two calves, acting coquettishly.
"Okay, daddy will play with you, play with you!" Zhao Wen couldn't bear to refuse Zhao Mingyu after hearing these words, and immediately agreed to Zhao Mingyu's request.
"Daddy, I want to set off firecrackers, I want to set off firecrackers!" Zhao Mingyu said happily with watery eyes.
"Haha!" Zhao Wen laughed twice, "Okay, okay, Daddy will accompany you to set off firecrackers, Daddy will accompany you to set off firecrackers!"
As Zhao Wen spoke, he put Zhao Mingyu on his shoulders and walked outside.
The guard standing at the door of the study hurriedly followed Zhao Wen and walked outside.
As soon as he walked out of the gate of the General Military Mansion, Liu Wenzhong, Lu Xiangsheng and Hong Chengchou walked over.
Zhao Wen didn't feel anything, and carried Zhao Mingyu towards the three of them.
"Do you have anything to do?" Zhao Wen looked at the three of them.
Liu Wenzhong shook his head, "It's nothing serious, I'm here today to give you a congratulatory form!"
"We are the same!" Hong Chengchou and Lu Xiangsheng also said the same.
Zhao Wen said: "So that's how it is. Since there is nothing to do, then don't leave, and have dinner with me later!"
"Obey!" Several people saluted Zhao Wen, and then stood beside them.
Zhao Wen supported Zhao Mingyu and walked under a big tree.
Some snow accumulated on the roots of the big tree, and Zhao Wen put Zhao Mingyu on the ground.
"Come here, get some firecrackers!" Zhao Wen looked at the guards following behind him.
Before the guard could answer, Zhao Mingyu shouted, "Daddy, I have firecrackers, I have firecrackers!"
Zhao Mingyu took out a few twist cannons from his arms, and kept dangling them in front of Zhao Wen.
Zhao Wen took the twist cannon from Zhao Mingyu's hand and stuck it on the snowdrift under the big tree.
"Son, look, today Daddy will show you what it means to set off firecrackers. If you set off firecrackers without collapsing things, it can't be called firecrackers!" Zhao Wen pointed to the firecrackers he had planted on the snowdrift, and then looked at the firecrackers behind him. The personal guard asked, "Which one of you has a fire pocket on you?"
"My lord, I have it!" A personal guard took out a fire pocket from his arms, and hurriedly handed it to Zhao Wen.
Zhao Wen took the firecracker, peeled off the top cover, blew on it, and then moved the firecracker to the firecracker's twister.
Zhao Mingyu covered his left ear with his left hand, hugged Zhao Wen's thigh with his right hand, and fixed his eyes on the firecrackers on the snowdrift.
"It seems that the lord loves the eldest son very much!" Liu Wenzhong looked at the scene in front of him, heaved a sigh of relief, and said slowly.
Lu Xiangsheng said: "The eldest son is the first son of the commander-in-chief, so he must prefer some."
Liu Wenzhong looked at the scene of harmony between father and son in front of him, took a deep breath, and said with a smile on his face: "The eldest son is the eldest son of the lord, and seeing the scene of harmony between the lord and the eldest son, there should be no such scene in the future. Accident!"
"That's right, Mr. Liu is right. There are not many people in history who are as peaceful as Mr. Zongbing and Mr. Eldest.
Harmony between father and son is a blessing for the imperial court and a blessing for the people of the world.If the father and son are harmonious, there will be fewer troubles and many things that should not happen can be avoided.It seems that the eldest son's position as the crown prince will not be able to run away in the future. " Lu Xiangsheng said.
This is what these scholars value most. Now when they see Zhao Wen's preference for Zhao Mingyu, they are completely relieved.
In fact, it's not that Zhao Wen is particularly partial to Zhao Mingyu, but that Zhao Mingyu is now old and can walk and run around.
His second son and daughter were still in their infancy and couldn't move around, so it was impossible for Zhao Wen to take his second son and daughter out to set off cannons.
In Zhao Wen's eyes, his son is no different.
"Since ancient times, it has been a law that has never changed since ancient times. As long as this law is changed, it will basically be the source of disaster.
Back then, the emperor of the temple made a big fuss over this matter. Since then, the monarch and his ministers have been divorced, and finally the government has lost control and is controlled by traitors.
If the temple emperor didn't mess around, where would things happen later? " Hong Chengchou also interjected.
"By the way, Mr. Liu, I remember that Mr. Zongbing asked you to enlighten the eldest son. How is your matter going?" Hong Chengchou looked at Liu Wenzhong.
Liu Wenzhong shook his head, "It hasn't officially started yet. According to the request of the Chief Soldier, the eldest son will be enlightened to study when he is three or four years old!"
"Isn't it a little late to be three or four years old? The eldest son is not a child of an ordinary family. Now the commander-in-chief's stall is so big. If you don't study early, I'm afraid you will have more than enough energy later on." Lu Xiangsheng looked puzzled. Look at Liu Wenzhong.
Liu Wenzhong shook his head, "How do I know this? The commander-in-chief must have his reasons for doing this. Those of us who are subordinates can only obey."
"That's right, Lord Chief Soldier has his reasons for doing this, and it's useless for us to guess here." Hong Chengchou nodded, quite agreeing with Liu Wenzhong's words.
"Look, from now on, let's fire the cannon like this. It's not interesting to fire a firecracker without breaking something, but remember, don't collapse the earthen pots and the like. Collapsing earthen pots can easily hurt people."
Zhao Wen inserted the firecracker into the snowdrift, and lit the fuze on the firecracker.
When the fuze was burned out, there was a "bang", and a snow pit the size of half a fist exploded in the snowdrift.
After all, they are firecrackers, and their power is not that great.
"Okay, just set off one firecracker. Take the rest of the firecrackers. Remember, when lighting the firecrackers, run farther and don't collapse yourself." Zhao Wen handed the firecrackers to Zhao Mingyu, Then some guards were called over, "You guys, bring my son here to set off firecrackers."
The guards following Zhao Wen hurried to Zhao Wen.
Zhao Wen pointed to Zhao Mingyu, and then walked towards Liu Wenzhong and the others.
"You are here today, and I just happen to have some things for you to do, go, follow me to the hall!"
As Zhao Wen said that, he walked towards the General Military Mansion. Liu Wenzhong and the others hurriedly followed behind Zhao Wen and walked towards the General Military Mansion.
Not long after, Zhao Wen sat in the lobby of the General Military Mansion.
"Sit down!" Zhao Wen pointed to the chairs on both sides of the hall, and said to several people.
Several people thanked them, and then sat on the chairs.
After sitting down, Zhao Wen looked at Lu Xiangsheng, "How is your stay in Xuan Town these days?"
Lu Xiangsheng stood up, "Master, it's okay, there's nothing wrong with it!"
Zhao Wen nodded, "That's good, that's good."
"Now Shanxi has been taken down by me. After the spring of next year, I will attack Shaanxi and Henan. After taking down these two places, what do you think I should do next?" Zhao Wen looked at Lu Xiangsheng, suddenly thinking Test Lu Xiangsheng's thoughts.
Lu Xiangsheng thought for a while, and said with piercing eyes: "My lord, it's time to ascend the throne and become emperor!"
As soon as Lu Xiangsheng said this, everything was quiet.Everyone in the hall stared at Lu Xiangsheng dumbfounded.
In addition to Liu Wenzhong and the others, there were some guards and servants in the hall.
These people really couldn't understand how Lu Xiangsheng would say such words at this time.
"You really think so? What's the reason for your thinking so?" Zhao Wen narrowed his eyes and looked at Lu Xiangsheng.
Zhao Wen never thought that Lu Xiangsheng would say such a thing, so he wanted to know why Lu Xiangsheng said such a thing.
"My lord, if we take Shaanxi and Henan next year, and then take Shanxi, Xuanzhen, Grassland, and the Nuer Gandu Division rebuilt by your lord, it can be said that the entire north will almost fall into your hands."

Chapter 565 Lu Xiangsheng's Thoughts
"My lord's territory is not small now, but his identity has never changed, which is really inappropriate.
If the identity of the chief soldier does not change, then the identity of the following personnel will not change either.This is still a big blow to the aggressiveness of these officials. "
Lu Xiangsheng looked at Zhao Wen and expressed his point of view.
Hearing Lu Xiangsheng's voice, Zhao Wen frowned tightly.
"My lord, there is one more important question." Lu Xiangsheng said again.
"What's the problem?" Zhao Wen looked at Lu Xiangsheng.
Lu Xiangsheng said: "People's hearts, military hearts, orthodoxy!"
"If your lord does not ascend the throne as emperor, the hearts of the people in the world will not really go to Mr. Zongbing. When Emperor Taizu Gao ascended the throne, the world was not yet peaceful, but why did Emperor Taizu Gao ascend the throne at this time?
That's because Emperor Taizu Gao understood that if he didn't ascend the throne in time, the hearts of the people in the world would not truly return.If the people don't return for a day, everything will be like duckweed on the water.
If you don't ascend the throne as the emperor, then the established regime will not be completely stabilized.Although it seems that the soldiers and horses of the Chief Soldier are extremely powerful, no one can stop the soldiers and horses of the Chief Soldier.
However, in the eyes of the people all over the world, Mr. Zongbing is a rogue like Li Zicheng, and the people all over the world will have a very poor sense of identity with Mr. Zongbing.
Besides the morale of the army, if the commander-in-chief ascends the throne as the emperor, it will greatly improve the morale of the army.As for the detailed reasons for this, I don't say that the commander-in-chief will understand.
The last one is orthodoxy.If Master Zong Bing does not ascend the throne for a day, then Daming will always be orthodox.This matter cannot and cannot be delayed, the sooner the better.
Once Lord Chief Soldier takes the throne, it means that Daming has become a thing of the past, and it will take less and less time for Lord General to rule the country. "
Lu Xiangsheng's voice kept echoing in the hall, and Zhao Wen fell into deep thought when he heard Lu Xiangsheng's voice.
What Lu Xiangsheng said was not unreasonable. No matter when, as long as a political power was established, from ancient times to the present, almost no one ascended the throne after completely pacifying the world.
When Qin Shihuang ascended the throne as emperor, the south had not yet settled down.When Liu Bang ascended the throne as emperor, the world had not yet settled down.
Later, Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty, and Emperor Gaozu of Tang Dynasty almost all became emperors when the world was not completely settled.
When Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, the Qianyuan forces in the north were still there, and most of them were not calmed down.
Hong Chengchou looked at Lu Xiangsheng and narrowed his eyes.
"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it, Lu Jiandou, Lu Jiandou, if you don't make a show, you will be a blockbuster. I have been in Xuanzhen for such a long time, and I dare not say such words to Mr. Zongbing , you are fine, within a few days of coming here, you did what I wanted to do but didn't dare to do."
Hong Chengchou kept sighing in his heart, he never thought that Lu Xiangsheng would dare to persuade Zhao Wen to become emperor at such a time.
Lu Xiangsheng's character is Jiandou. In ancient times, people of the same age were called, and people of the same generation basically called him by the same name.
