Chapter 18 A life-saving straw, Zhu Yunwen was stunned!
"Zhu Xiongying, the eldest grandson of the Ming Dynasty and the eldest son of Prince Zhu Biao! He could have been the grandson of the emperor. He died on the first day of May in the fifteenth year of Hongwu. He only lived eight years old. He was "unsealed" and buried in Zhongshan."
Snap...
Boom...
As soon as Chu Ze finished speaking, two dull sounds immediately echoed in the imperial study room.
There was a sound and it was Zhu Yuanzhang holding a teacup.
Ming Taizu, who was supposed to be indifferent to emotions and anger, actually suffered the pain of losing his son and his grandson in just ten minutes.
When I heard Chu Ze mention that his eldest grandson Zhu Xiongying only lived to be eight years old and then died.
All the bones in his body seemed to have been ripped away at once.
Even the strength to hold a tea cup seems to be gone.
The blood on his face, which was originally rosy, began to fade rapidly.
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting paralyzed on the throne, felt only darkness in front of his eyes...
As for Zhu Biao, when he heard that his eldest son had died in the fifteenth year of Hongwu, his reaction was even greater than when he heard the news that he had passed away in the twenty-fifth year of Hongwu.
He was still standing upright, but he collapsed on the ground, his eyes full of disbelief.
As a father, how could he accept this heavy news?
"You...can you stop looking at me! Can you turn around? You turn your head to look at me from time to time, and I feel so panicked..."
In the entire imperial study hall, the three fathers and sons of the old Zhu family, and Zhu Yuanzhang, who had the best concentration, had a bit of a mental breakdown at this time.
After hearing the news that the emperor's grandson Zhu Xiongying had died at the age of eight, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was already grumpy, didn't even have time to react and stood up and scolded Chu Ze angrily.
The whole person looked ahead with empty eyes, as if he had lost his soul for a moment.
As for Prince Zhu Biao, who was still young and had just become a father, he was also shocked by the news brought by Chu Ze.
First I heard the news of my own death, and then I heard the news of my son’s death!
Even, he just let his father experience the pain of "a white-haired person giving a black-haired person".
When he turned his head, he experienced it himself again.
This kind of ups and downs in life, down, down...
Even one person might not be able to bear it.
Among the three fathers and sons, the only one who was relatively calm at this time was the King of Yan, Zhu Di.
Chu Ze's eyes naturally drifted towards him again.
However, this time, when facing Chu Ze's gaze, Zhu Di felt a sudden numbness in his back.
He even felt that his scalp was a little hairy.
In Zhu Di's opinion at this time, Chu Ze is simply a bad guy.
It depends on whoever talks about whom, whoever will suffer...
So when facing Chu Ze's gaze, Zhu Di did not hide his disgust at all!
Even as soon as Chu Ze's eyes fell on him, he immediately urged Chu Ze to turn his head away and don't look at him!
Chu Ze originally thought that Zhu Di was the only one who could speak normally now, and he wanted to see if he could also have a few words with the future Emperor Yongle.
In the end, he didn't expect that he would be disliked...
"No, no, it's only the twelfth year of Hongwu... there's still time, there's still time! Chu Ze, tell us quickly how our good grandson... you understand what we mean, right?
Tell us quickly! Is there any chance of saving it?"
"Don't worry, as long as you save our grandson, we will never kill you... No, if you don't worry, I will just give you a large sum of money and then send you away. You can go wherever you want!"<
/p>
"Whatever you want, we will give you!"
This time, the first person to react was still Zhu Yuanzhang.
After all, Emperor Hongwu is also a legendary figure.
In a lifetime of fighting, what kind of scenes has he never seen?
After a brief period of confusion, he quickly adjusted his emotions.
Being sad and sad are the most useless things in the world.
Because apart from making myself uncomfortable, it doesn't change anything.
In Zhu Yuanzhang's view at this time, the most urgent and important thing is to figure out what happened? How to prevent it!
This is the most important thing!
He doesn't want to lose the son he has nurtured for half his life, let alone his cute and clever grandson.
No matter what it is, he doesn't want to lose it.
Compared with these, what he cares about least is himself.
"That's right, Chu Ze, please help me and save my son. I, Zhu Biao, will owe you my lifelong love! Xiongying is still young. He...he, I..."
After Zhu Biao heard what Lao Zhu said, he quickly got up from the ground.
Then he quickly came to Chu Ze.
Grabbing Chu Ze's hand, his whole body was trembling slightly.
Even Zhu Biao at this time had the urge to kneel down to Chu Ze.
He has only been a father for a few years. How could he be willing to watch his son die at this time?
"Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince, it's not that I don't want to say it! It's that I really don't know the reason for Zhu Xiongying's death!"
"After the prince and the emperor's eldest grandson passed away one after another, the emperor's concubine Zhu Yunwen finally succeeded to the throne, with the emperor's title Jianwen."
"After he succeeded to the throne, the first thing he did was to revise the Chronicle of Hongwu. How can I say it? Later generations speculated. He probably wanted to make his succession look more beautiful and pleasant, so he deliberately erased a lot of information about Zhu Xiongying.
things."
"By the way, I wrote that I am so favored by Your Majesty that even if the emperor's eldest grandson is alive, you will let him succeed to the throne."
"Because of this modification, there are only a few words about Zhu Xiongying in later historical records."
"As a descendant who has been separated for hundreds of years, what I can know are all things recorded by our predecessors!"
"Originally, we are somewhat related... After all, our ancestors are related to you, and I actually admire you. If I know the details, can I not tell you?
”
"..."
To Zhu Yuanzhang, who was already despairing of all hope, Chu Ze was like a drowning man trying to grasp the life-saving straw on the shore.
However, what he regarded as the only life-saving straw actually broke because of his own strength.
The key is why this life-saving straw breaks as soon as you pull it.
The main reason is that another good grandson of mine buried the knife in advance...
At this moment, it can be said that Zhu Yuanzhang did not know whether he should scold Chu Ze or Zhu Yunwen.
On the other side, Zhu Biao felt that the energy and blood all over his body seemed to be rising up one after another.
Just to make his ascension to the throne look better, he actually chose to erase the traces of his brother from history on a large scale...
