Chapter 10 The King of Guangyang seeks an audience (please read!)

Forbidden City, Inner Garden Taiye Pond.

The rain was still heavy and the water in the pond was churning.

An old man and a young man were sitting in a pavilion by the pool. There was a fishing rod in front of each of them, Lao Zhu's was gold, and Xiao Zhu's was green and ink.

This shows Lao Zhu's love for his eldest grandson. Zhu Xiongying wanted to go fishing, but he forced his sick body to walk without saying a word.

"Boy, how do you feel about sitting in the position of Supervisor?"

Lao Zhu looked at his eldest grandson with a smile, his eyes full of love.

Zhu Xiongying did not speak, but stood up with a solemn face, knelt down with a plop, and kowtowed three times silently.

Just when Lao Zhu was confused about the situation, Zhu Xiongying raised his head, his eyes red.

"Only after one day of supervising the country can you realize the hard work of the emperor's grandfather."

To be honest, it's a bit fake.

Even Song Zhong and the old eunuch standing behind couldn't stand it anymore, and the corners of their mouths twitched, His Highness the Emperor's poor acting...

However, Lao Zhu was extremely useful. When he saw his eldest grandson being so aggressive, his eyes instantly turned red. He was a ruthless man who could kill tens of thousands of people without even moving his eyelids, but he was extremely kind to his own bloodline. Otherwise, he would

He will not give his sons real fiefdoms to build a country.

Zhu Xiongying's words hit the old Zhu Xinba directly.

"Quick, get up quickly."

"Good grandson, our good grandson..."

Best Actor Zhu Xiongying stood up, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and sat down again. He thought to himself that aside from his temper, he was really a good grandfather. In front of his children and grandchildren, he could be said to be 100% heartbroken.

son.

But it was precisely because of Lao Zhu's pampering of his descendants that each of the feudal kings became more unscrupulous than the last.

The grandfather and grandson were speechless for a while, and then Lao Zhu spoke.

"Xiongying, we called you here today for a few things."

"First, I want to ask you how you feel about supervising the country. Remember, your imperial grandfather is behind you, so you can go ahead and do it."

"Second, I want to tell you something. We are getting old and we don't have many days left. Your father is not in good health either. Sooner or later, the country of the Ming Dynasty will be handed over to you."

Zhu Xiongying's face straightened.

"Grandpa Huang can live for at least another thirty years!"

Lao Zhu smiled and patted Zhu Xiongying on the shoulder.

"The imperial grandfather has found a person for you in the court."

A name flashed through Zhu Xiongying's mind instantly: Destroy our ten clans Fang Xiaoru.

"Fang Xiaoru."

Sure enough, Lao Zhu said these three words simultaneously.

"We originally wanted to expel him from the imperial court. When you ascend the throne and recall him later, he will definitely feel your kindness and serve you loyally."

"But then I thought about it. Since you are in charge of the country now, it is up to you to promote him, which saves you the trouble of going back and forth."

Zhu Xiongying nodded. Although Fang Xiaoru was pedantic, his knowledge and loyalty were absolutely no problem. Emperor Jianwen's bad use of people did not mean that the people were not good. It meant that Emperor Jianwen himself was useless.

"My grandson will remember it."

Lao Zhu smiled and nodded, then breathed a long sigh of relief.

"With this person sorting out the internal affairs for you, with the assistance of Qi Tai and others, and with your uncles guarding the border for you externally, you can be your emperor in Yingtian Mansion with peace of mind."

It's a conversation.

Zhu Xiongying was familiar with history in his previous life, especially the history of the Ming Dynasty. He had read the Ming Dynasty stories seven or eight times, not counting the audio.

Isn't this just the conversation between Lao Zhu and Zhu Yunwen? The meaning is almost the same.

In this case, it is just a matter of imitation.

"Uncles can stop foreign enemies from invading, but what if they have other intentions?"

Lao Zhu was stunned for a moment, then fell silent.

He has lived like a patriarch all his life, protecting and caring for his children and grandchildren. In order for his children and grandchildren to live a happy and prosperous life, he has even set their salary for three hundred years.

After a long time, Lao Zhu looked at Zhu Xiongying.

"What do you mean?"

Zhu Xiongying was not surprised by Lao Zhu's rhetorical question. Lao Zhu, who had the original historical trajectory, asked Zhu Yunwen this way.

At that time, Zhu Yunwen's answer was "Virtue first and then attack", and there was really no need for a military confrontation. Lao Zhu was very satisfied with that answer, but in Zhu Xiongying's view, it was just full of empty talk and had no practical significance at all.

"Change the envelope."

After two words, Lao Zhu fell silent again.

Finally, he nodded heavily. In Lao Zhu's opinion, this was also the most perfect solution.

Lao Zhu's appeal is very simple, that is, to allow his sons to live in wealth and honor. Changing titles will not affect this, but changing titles can weaken the strength of the kings to the greatest extent.

Zhu Xiongying thought of this because he was inspired by the exchange of commanders of the eight military regions in his previous life.

"You have thought carefully and Grandpa Huang supports you."

After patting Zhu Xiongying on the shoulder, Old Zhu stood up tremblingly, and the old eunuch quickly stepped forward to support him.

"Old man, my body is useless. You guys can fish slowly here while we go back."

Lao Zhu was still soft-hearted towards his son after all.

Zhu Xiongying looked at Zhu Yuanzhang's leaving back and thought thoughtfully. If Lao Zhu issued an imperial edict to move the kings' positions, none of the kings would dare not listen. But Lao Zhu did not do this and asked Zhu Xiongying to do it.

.

This is what I'm telling Zhu Xiongying.

As long as I'm alive, I'll stay the same.

If I die, you can do whatever you want, there is only one condition: don't hurt their lives.

"Old Zhu, Old Zhu, you have been shrewd and decisive all your life. Why can't you figure out your own family's affairs? There is no compromise on the throne. Since ancient times, we have fought to the death for you. For this position, brothers have killed each other, and fathers and sons have fought against each other.

There are not many killings."

This reminded Zhu Xiongying of Zhu Yunwen in the original historical trajectory. While he wanted to pacify Yan Ni, he also strictly ordered the soldiers not to kill Zhu Di. It was simply a lack of brains.

I won't be able to catch any fish for a while.

When the end of the Youshi period arrived and the sun set over the horizon, Zhu Xiongying put away his pole and returned to Taisun's Mansion.

The clear pond in Taisun's Mansion is illuminated by the moonlight.

Zhu Xiongying was lying on the Diaoyutai, looking at the clear lake in front of him and thinking about things. Changing the seal seemed simple, but it was extremely difficult to operate. Even if he didn't pay attention, it would directly cause the kings to rebel.

At this moment, eunuch Xiaobao reported.

"Your Highness, Guang, King Guangyang wants to see you."

Guangyang, Zhu Yunwen's title.

After all, this guy didn't sit on the throne of the emperor's grandson. According to the rules of Emperor Ming's ancestors, the prince's son and grandson who are over ten years old can be canonized.

What's this guy doing?

Zhu Xiongying frowned slightly.

The reason why he moved out of the East Palace that year was firstly because he was canonized as the emperor's grandson, and secondly because of Zhu Yunzhen's mother and son.

They appear to be smiling on the surface, but in reality they are all old Yinbi, and they make little moves from time to time that make people annoying.

"Tell him he's resting alone."

Zhu Xiongying didn't want to see this guy. The two of them were so full that they didn't have any water in their stomachs.
