Daming: After self-explosive time travel, Lao Zhu's mentality collapsed

Yingtian Xuanwu Street.

At this time, it was the New Year, and the entire Yingtian was shrouded in a layer of joy filled with ice and snow.

The bloodshed that occurred in the palace did not affect the people at all.

Look at the silver-covered streets and the newly decorated houses.

Look at the big red characters "福" and the couplets posted on every house.

Chu Ze's gloomy mood improved a lot.

Zhu Di took Chu Ze to the restaurant that was open on the side, asked for a private room, ordered a few popular dishes, and boiled a pot of good wine.

The two of them leaned against the window and drank in the biting cold wind.

While drinking, Chu Ze laughed: "Do you think there is something wrong with us? In the middle of winter, we sit in the room and warm ourselves by the fire, but we have to open the window to the cold wind."

Zhu Di looked at the large open window, was stunned for a moment, and then started laughing.

"There's something wrong with it. Come on, let me close the window for you."

He reached out and tried to close the window.

Before his hand even touched the window, Chu Ze grabbed his wrist and pushed him back.

"Forget it." Chu Ze's voice was low, with a bit of lamentation, "It's okay to just blow it, calm down."

After all, he has been a bit more public during this time.

Relying on Zhu Yuanzhang's favor, some things were indeed done unscrupulously.

It had been taken advantage of by Zabamu before.

This happened again today.

This was a wake-up call for him.

Zhu Di understood what Chu Ze meant.

He was silent for a moment, and then said: "Our father is so virtuous, but he will not touch you."

Isn’t it the same for Chu Ze’s reliance?

He just felt that as long as he kept a low profile towards Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yuanzhang would not touch him.

But sometimes, some things are beyond your control.

The more things he does now, the higher his status will be in the minds of the people and officials.

By then, even if he still wants to remain humble, he will be the true uncrowned king.

Can Zhu Yuanzhang let him go?
Even if it was Chu Ze, he wanted to be the emperor, and then he would feel frightened when he met such a person, fearing that when he woke up one day, the person on the dragon throne would be replaced by another one.

He understands, but it doesn't mean he is willing to accept it.

It's not that he couldn't accept Zhu Yuanzhang's suspicion of him, it was mainly that he couldn't accept that he died like this.

Before, he had no power and was just a piece of meat on the anvil. Whether he accepted it or not would not affect the outcome.

But now it's different.

He has the ability to save himself.

Then he definitely doesn't want to die like this, right?

But Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want to move.

The Ming Dynasty was the dynasty he wanted to protect.

It cannot be destroyed because of it.

He had to find a way to get the best of both worlds.

This not only allows Zhu Yuanzhang to relax his guard against himself again, but also allows him to stay here and continue doing his own thing.

What should we do?

Chu Ze felt worried.

Little did Zhu Di know that Chu Ze, who was still grieving for spring and autumn just now, was now starting to think of solutions.

He didn't even have time to comfort him, and he had forgotten all these things.

Zhu Di carefully observed Chu Ze's expression, then carefully considered his words, and said: "Actually, we think this matter is all the fault of Zabamu. If he hadn't deliberately provoked it, my father would not be angry with you at all. You I also know that in the heart of our father, you are closer than his biological son, and his attitude towards you is the best except for our eldest brother."

Chu Ze approved what Zhu Di said later.

But Chu Ze didn't recognize a single word of what was said in front of him.There is a reason for Zabamu, but that is just an inducement.

Even without Zhabam, there would have been problems sooner or later between him and Zhu Yuanzhang.

It's just time, sooner or later, Chu Ze is very open-minded.

He waved his hand to indicate to Zhu Di that he was not actually that angry with Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Your Majesty has His Majesty's considerations, so we won't have a conflict with him just because of this." He was just thinking about how to regain Zhu Yuanzhang's trust, and then continue to do his own thing.

Ye's goal is to make the Ming Dynasty as strong as possible and extend the existence of the Ming Dynasty.

In this way, there will be no more Manchus entering the customs, and there will no longer be various treaties that humiliate the country.

It will also allow Greater China's scientific and technological civilization and development to leap directly to several levels and maintain a world-leading level.

If possible, he wouldn't mind setting up a colony.

As long as this goal can be achieved, Chu Ze doesn't care about other things.

Chu Ze's attitude was too candid, which made Zhu Di speechless for a moment.

He held the wine and looked at Chu Ze blankly.

He felt that he had persuaded himself to be lonely.

Before he came to Chu Ze, Zhu Feng specially took care of him and asked him to enlighten Chu Ze properly, while he went to his elder brother to find out the news and see if Zhu Biao had any solution.

But now it seems that all this effort was in vain.

Because Chu Ze didn't need their persuasion at all.

Come on, he didn't want to persuade him anymore and just drank with Chu Ze.

"Come on, do it." Zhu Di raised his glass and touched it with Chu Ze.

The wine glass was put down, but it was Zhu Di's turn to frown.

Chu Ze found it funny.

Wasn't this person here to comfort him?

Why is it that he is no longer worried, but it is Zhu Di's turn to be worried?
In line with the principle of friendship and mutual assistance, Chu Ze asked: "Why are you worried?"

Zhu Di glanced at him.

"What are we worried about? Don't you know?"

Chu Ze thought for a while and probably had an idea in his mind.

He asked: "Is it about Wa Ci?"

"Isn't that right? We all know the combat effectiveness of Waqi's cavalry. Now that they have acquired more than a thousand guns, their combat effectiveness has been greatly improved. We are worried..."

Zhu Di didn't finish what he said later.

Chu Ze guessed it.

He smiled and said: "Don't worry too much. With our combat power, we will not lose to him. Of course, if we go by our previous estimates, it will definitely not work."

Because Zhu Di and others were not present when they talked on New Year's Eve, Chu Ze deliberately told the situation in detail.

In their estimation, although it would take some effort to deal with the thorns, it would still take much less effort than the current situation.

Chu Ze was worried that after this battle, the damage rate would be at least double what they had previously estimated.

And it is very likely that the war will be stalemate.

Once there is a stalemate, the two will fall into a protracted war.

Of course, there was no doubt that Ming Dynasty won, but Chu Ze felt that the cost of such a victory was still a bit high.

The only advantage is that the people and officials may be happy because of the victory.

Because no matter how high the price is this time, it will be much better than before he came.

But Chu Ze still felt distressed.

So many young and middle-aged people died in the grassland in vain.

What a pity, what a pity.

Chu Ze sighed.

"Isn't there any way to improve it? For example, make some more weapons? Isn't the thing you used to damage Zabamu today good?" Zhu Di came up with the idea of ​​a grenade. (End of chapter)
