Daming: I was exposed by Zhu Di's Sims life!

Chapter 174 Do you want to resign as the crown prince?

Zhu Gaoxuan looked at Zhu Zhanji and couldn't help chuckling: "You're still young."

Zhu Zhanji frowned: "It's as if you are how many years older than me."

Zhu Gaoxuan was born in the twelfth lunar month of the 24th year of Hongwu, and Zhu Zhanji was born in February of the second year of Jianwen. Although the two were uncles and nephews, Zhu Gaoxuan was only six years older than Zhu Zhanji.

But now the emperor's grandson looked at King Qi's tone, as if he was a few decades older, and felt that the years were not forgiving, and he missed his youth.

But Zhu Gaoxuan just smiled and didn't say much.

His two lifetimes combined are older than Zhu Di's age. Over the years, he has gradually merged with the personalities in his mind, and his mental age has already exceeded the realm that normal humans can understand.

It was as if ten souls had been stuffed into the same body, and different temperaments appeared in Zhu Gaoyi's body:

He has the rebelliousness of the champion, the awe-inspiring arrogance of the first emperor, the condescension of Tang Taizong, the indifference and ruthlessness of someone butcher, the strategizing of a soldier, the arrogance of Wei Wudi, and the unscrupulous prime minister of Qin Dynasty...

If it were an ordinary person, he would have collapsed under such a huge mental burden, but Zhu Gaoyi can adjust these personalities just right. Although the style is changeable, the master personality is always him.

His figure seemed to have spanned thousands of years of history, with a young body and a vicissitudes of soul, making it difficult for everyone to understand what kind of person King Qi was.

……

In the corridor of Qianqing Palace, Prince Zhu Gaochi walked in and kowtowed: "Son, Zhu Gaochi, send greetings to the saint."

"Actually, it doesn't matter whether you come or not. You can't keep him today."

Zhu Di said slowly, "The lessons learned by the third child are still vivid in my mind. Now Zhan Ji wants to learn from Li Shimin back then, and joined forces with Xu Qin to launch a mutiny. Unfortunately, he is not Li Shimin, and I am not Li Yuan. He failed. If you make a mistake, you must admit it, and if you are beaten, you must stand at attention. He didn't beat the neighbor's child, he was rebelling!"

"Father, what do you plan to do with Zhan Ji?" Zhu Gaochi asked.

"Although he committed a serious crime of treason, he is my son and grandson after all. He can avoid the death penalty, but the death penalty can be avoided, and the death penalty cannot be escaped. He will be deposed from the position of grandson and demoted to a commoner." Zhu Di said, "As for this If you are a father, you should contemplate behind closed doors for three years, during which time you are not allowed to go out without purpose."

Such a punishment may seem like a catastrophe, but it is actually very light.

Zhu Di made it very clear just now, what Zhu Zhanji committed was not a child's fault, what he did was treason!Colluded with Wei Guogong Xu Qin to rebel and launch a mutiny!

If Zhu Zhanji was able to do this, King Qi could not escape his death, and Zhu Di's fate would probably be similar to that of Li Yuan, Emperor Gaozong of Tang Dynasty.

Ji Gang was slandered for the crime of "conspiracy", and was sentenced to Ling Chi's death, hacked into pieces, and wiped out all three clans!
"Zhanji made a big mistake, and I, as a father, are also guilty. It was my inability to teach my son that caused such a catastrophe." Zhu Gaochi breathed a long sigh of relief, and said, "It's the father's fault if the son doesn't teach, please forgive me." Your Majesty, blame me, the crown prince!"

Zhu Di frowned slightly: "What do you mean by that?"

Zhu Gaochi smiled: "If the fourth younger brother wants to be in the top position, it's not right. As long as I, the prince, is still in the capital, then King Qi will never be able to fulfill the high position of the inheritance. Don't hold me, the prince, in the shackles." Shit, my health is not good, and my fourth brother is in the prime of life, why not take this opportunity to make room for my fourth brother."

Hearing this, Zhu Di understood what Zhu Gaochi wanted to say: "You want to resign from the position of prince and keep Zhanji?"

Zhu Gaochi didn't answer, with a relieved smile on his face.

Donggong father and son seemed to have a tacit understanding.

Zhu Zhanji wanted to use his own life to keep the foundation of the East Palace and his father's crown prince.

And Zhu Gaochi wanted to use the position of prince to keep Zhu Zhanji.

Everyone is thinking about each other, even if they sometimes disagree, sometimes Zhu Zhanji will be rebellious, and sometimes Zhu Gaochi will feel that Zhu Zhanji is too hostile... These little things in daily life, I think of it now But how warm.

They are willing to use everything they have in exchange for the beauty of each other.

"Are you sure?" Zhu Di's face was serious.

Zhu Gaochi didn't answer directly, but used the way of reminiscing to tell something: "Father, do you still remember that when you married Qi Wangfu and the British government, the Hanwang party frantically set fire to Zhang Fu in the court?"

"I have a good memory, of course I remember." Zhu Di closed his eyes lightly, and said, "At that time, King Qi was not as strong as he is now. Donggong stood up and helped King Qi suppress the Hanwang Party, and then the fourth son beat Chen Jin to death with the back of a knife in front of the court, and his blood spattered Fengtian Hall!"

"Father, do you know why my East Palace wanted to help King Qi?" Zhu Gaochi asked again.

"I'm also very curious." Zhu Di stroked his frost-colored beard, "What did the fourth brother tell you the night before the blood splashed in Fengtian Temple?"

This time it was Zhu Gaochi's turn to be confused.

The night before the "Blood Splattered Fengtian Palace" incident happened, King Qi went to the East Palace to talk to the crown prince in the dark.
What King Qi said?No, King Qi is free to tell the old man what to do...

Zhu Gaochi suddenly had a feeling, as if the whole Jinling City was in the palm of the old man, and nothing could be hidden from him, making people awe-inspiring.

However, this has nothing to do with him.

"That night, King Qi found me with a map." Zhu Gaochi said slowly.

"Map?" Zhu Di became interested, "What map?"

What kind of map is it that can make the prince willing to fight for Prince Qi's mansion?

"It's a map, a map I've never seen before, and I still feel in a trance when I think about it now."

Zhu Gaochi recalled, "He called that map the world map. There are countless countries on the map. Some I know and some I don't. I don't remember clearly. I just remember something... France, England, Great Britain ,Spain Portugal……"

Zhu Di was a little confused when he heard that: "What the hell?"

Zheng He traveled to the West and visited many places, but he has not been to Europe. The main countries he visited are: Champa (Southern Vietnam), Chenla (Cambodia), Siam (Thailand), Sumatra and Old Port (Sumatra, Indonesia), Nai (Kalimantan, Indonesia), Java (Java Island, Indonesia), Manlaka (Malacca), Mount Ceylon (Sri Lanka), Mount Liu (Maldives), Bangla (Bangladesh), Guri ( Calicut, India)...

Therefore, Zhu Di did not know much about Europe.

"King Qi said that the biggest threat to the Ming Dynasty is in the north, that is, foreign races such as Mongolia and Jianzhou, but the biggest threat to the Han people is not in the north, but in the West." Zhu Gaochi said slowly, "The Mongols have developed for 100 years, but they have only carried The barbarians who rode horses and plundered with scimitars, but those Westerners are different, they are developing civilization, and in another five or six hundred years, Europe will become the biggest enemy of the Central Plains."

"It's a joke, the West is just..." Zhu Di's voice suddenly paused.

He suddenly remembered, the Southwest Qi Palace that was simulated before.

The Southwest Qi Palace seems to be isolated from the world, and has little contact with the imperial court. According to some clues, the goal of the Qi Palace has always been the West.Why is Prince Qi's mansion so obsessed with Xiyang?

At that time, Prince Qi's Mansion was already unbelievably powerful, with powerful technology beyond imagination, and easily wiped out the hundreds of thousands of imperial troops of Emperor Jiajing. If King Qi had the heart at that time, he could have taken advantage of the situation and marched to the north to conquer the capital.

However, their goal has never been in the north, but in the west.

"The fourth brother took the map and made gestures. He told me that he would take the army and fight from here to where." Zhu Gaochi continued, "From Daming to a city named Paris, it will take ten years to fight. It doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter if he fights for 100 years, if he doesn’t finish fighting while he’s alive, then let the posterity fight, the children and grandchildren, the generations to fight!”

"From then on, I felt that I was inferior to him, no matter in terms of vision or ambition."

"Da Ming needs King Qi. If I succeed to the throne, I will only be a successful king, and King Qi will succeed to the throne, just like Genghis Khan, who made the empire's territory infinitely vast."

There are only a handful of emperors who can be called "great emperors" throughout the ages.

Zhu Gaochi was able to give such a high evaluation, which surprised Zhu Di.

"If the father wants the King of Han to succeed to the throne, the ministers will try their best to stop him. Although the King of Han is also ambitious, but his strength is not worthy of his ambition." Zhu Gaochi said with relief, "But if the father wants King Qi to succeed, My son will fight, but not desperately, now that I have lost, I am convinced."

"The crown prince should be regarded as my elder brother, and I can do my brother one last favor."

……

Zhu Gaoxuan lay sprawled on the golden chair, sleeping soundly, and the corners of his mouth almost dripped down.

Zhu Zhanji was leaning against the red painted pillar, wondering what he was thinking.

The great eunuch Tang Cheng walked into the Nuan Pavilion, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly when he saw this scene: This King Qi really regards the emperor's Qianqing Palace as his home!
"Ahem." Tang Cheng coughed.

Only then did Zhu Gaoxuan slowly open his eyes, seeing that it was Tang Cheng, he lazily said: "I thought who it was, it turned out to be Uncle Tang, if it's okay, I'll sleep a little longer, I ran all over the capital in the middle of the night , I'm so sleepy."

Tang Chengdao: "Your Majesty asked you to go there by yourself."

"……Fine."

Zhu Gaoxuan was a little depressed when he heard the words, but he had to get up and walk in the direction of Zhu Di.
