My father Zhu Gaoxu

Chapter 367 On the Dying

Yao Guangxiao was in great spirits, and even drank half a bowl of porridge, but this was the flash of light, the last brilliance of Yao Guangxiao's burning life.

Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanhe also felt his nose sore, and tears almost came out.

But in the end he still endured his grief and came to Yao Guangxiao's side, intending to accompany him through the last journey of his life.

After Yao Guangxiao drank the porridge, his energy seemed to be better than before, and he was able to sit up by himself, which made Zhu Di very happy, and even comforted Yao Guangxiao to recover from his illness.

But at this moment, Yao Guangxiao asked everyone else in the room to retreat, leaving only Zhu Di and Zhu Zhanhe.

Only then did Yao Guangxiao chuckle to Zhu Di and said, "Your Majesty, my time is running out. In this last time, I have a few words to say to you!"

"Young master, don't say these unlucky things. Your health has obviously started to improve. As long as you rest quietly, you will definitely recover!"

Zhu Di's face changed drastically when he heard the words, but just as he finished speaking, he found that Zhu Zhanhe next to him looked gloomy and his eye circles were slightly red.

"Your Majesty, it seems that the son already knows."

Yao Guangxiao pointed at Zhu Zhanhe and smiled.

Yao Guangxiao's family has practiced medicine for generations, and he himself is proficient in medical skills. Of course, he knows his physical condition better than anyone else.

"Zhan He, what's going on here?"

Seeing Zhu Zhanhe's expression, Zhu Di also felt uncomfortable, so he questioned him immediately.

"Grandpa Huang, the young master's time is running out, you'd better listen to what he has to say!"

Zhu Zhanhe did not explain, but sighed.

No one knows how long it will last, and when it ends, Yao Guangxiao's life will come to an end.

Zhu Di's heart sank when he heard the words, and all the joy just now disappeared.

"Your Majesty, now the Ming Dynasty is flourishing like a brocade, and everything is developing in a good direction. The only thing to worry about is that Your Majesty has too few heirs, and you are not satisfied with the crown prince, so you make things difficult for him. But apart from the crown prince, the King of Han and Zhao Wang is not suitable to inherit the great position."

Yao Guangxiao supported himself strongly, and said a long paragraph to Zhu Di in one breath, directly explaining Zhu Di's hesitation in the matter of establishing a reserve.

"I know what you want to say, but don't worry, I won't change it as soon as I establish the crown prince. Now the second child has gone to Tianzhu. As for the third child, I also plan to let him go overseas in the future. , but he is a conservative king, so he shouldn't make any big mistakes."

Zhu Di said with a sigh.

"Your Majesty has already decided to pass on to the crown prince, so don't suppress the crown prince too much. Although the crown prince has a gentle personality, he has been wronged too much and will keep things in his heart. If your majesty is gone in the future, the crown prince may He will do something out of the ordinary because of it.”

Unexpectedly, Yao Guangxiao persuaded him again.

"The boss will do something outrageous? It shouldn't be possible, right?"

Zhu Di asked in disbelief when he heard the words.

Zhu Zhanhe was also very surprised. He didn't know much about Zhu Gaochi's situation after he became the throne. After all, Zhu Gaochi's reign was too short, and there was basically nothing to record. .

"Your Majesty, the prince is also a human being. As long as he is a human being, he will have emotions. When some emotions accumulate in his heart, it is like a flood that has been blocked. There will always be a day when it will erupt."

Yao Guangxiao persuaded again earnestly.

"Okay, I understand the meaning of the young master, I must treat the prince better in the future!"

Although Zhu Di still didn't believe it, considering Yao Guangxiao's life was short, he finally nodded in agreement.

Seeing Zhu Di's promise, Yao Guangxiao finally showed a satisfied smile, and then looked at Zhu Zhanhe and said, "Your Majesty, you conquered Japan this time, conquered the Japanese provinces, expanded the territory for the Ming Dynasty, and solved the problem of Japanese pirates." Suffering, it is really a boundless merit!"

"Master, these are what I should do!"

Zhu Zhanhe stepped forward to hold Yao Guangxiao's hand and said.

I saw Yao Guangxiao smiled, and then suddenly said to Zhu Di: "Your Majesty, I have something to say, and I want to talk to the prince alone!"

Zhu Di was taken aback when he heard the words, but quickly nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll go out first!"

After Zhu Di finished speaking and left the bamboo house, Yao Guangxiao looked at Zhu Zhanhe and said, "Your Majesty, I know you have a big secret, and I don't intend to pursue it, but I see what you have done these years. Sending the King of Han to Tianzhu , Let the honorables go to sea to do business, and this time personally lead the troops to conquer the Japanese country, and completely solve the Japanese pirates' rebellion!"

Yao Guangxiao paused at this point, and then said: "What you have done seems to be deliberately trying to lead my Ming's future to the sea. Now, can you tell me why you did this?"

Facing Yao Guangxiao's question, Zhu Zhanhe also sighed secretly. He knew that his abnormal behavior would definitely not be hidden from Yao Guangxiao's eyes. Fortunately, the other party didn't ask the reason, otherwise he really didn't know how to answer?

"Young Master is right. I am indeed guiding Da Ming to the sea on purpose, because I firmly believe that the future of this world must lie on the sea, especially the fertile land overseas. If I do not take it, Da Ming will only benefit others in the future, and even Someone used the resources on these lands to threaten me, Ming!"

Zhu Zhanhe explained with a solemn expression.

"But overseas is so big, even if it is Tianzhu, it takes at least half a year to drive to Daming. Even if the overseas land is occupied by outsiders, how can it threaten my Daming?"

Yao Guangxiao still felt that Zhu Zhanhe's words were exaggerated.

"Master, now you feel that Tianzhu is far away from Daming. The main reason is that the current transportation methods are too backward. The fastest on land is a horse-drawn carriage, and the fastest in water is a boat with the help of wind."

When Zhu Zhanhe said this, he deliberately paused, and then continued.

"But this world will move forward. Maybe one day, land transportation will be several times, dozens of times faster than horses, and ships on the sea will be able to run fast by themselves without the help of wind, from Daming to Tianzhu. , it may only take half a month or a few days to reach it, or even circle the whole earth, and it will only take a few months, then you will feel that the earth is too small."

Zhu Zhanhe described the scene of the afterlife, his eyes sparkled with excitement, he very much hoped to see this scene coming sooner.

"Several times faster than horses, ships don't need to rely on wind power? This... is this possible?"

Yao Guangxiao still couldn't believe it, because these descriptions were beyond his cognition.

"Nothing is impossible. In the past, people also believed that it was impossible for people to fly into the sky, but the hot air balloon I invented successfully took people into the sky. If the hot air balloon is improved, people can even use the hot air balloon as a means of transportation. , so as to reach the destination faster!"

Zhu Zhanhe introduced again.
