My father Zhu Gaoxu

Chapter 590 Offending Everyone
In the study room of the Han Palace, Zhu Yong told Zhu Zhanhe what happened in Wuying Hall today in detail.

Zhu Zhanhe was seen frowning at this time. After being silent for a while, he finally said: "Uncle, I want to make enemies of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty!"

"Not only the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty are enemies of the whole world, but if the sea ban is really to be restarted, the people along the coast may rebel. After all, when Emperor Taizu was the emperor, he caused a lot of chaos just to implement the sea ban! "

Zhu Yong also said angrily.

As soon as he left Wuying Hall, he immediately ran to Zhu Zhanhe in order to discuss with him what to do next?
"Judging from my uncle's recent performance, once he has made a decision, it will never be easy for anyone to change it. Even if everyone in the cabinet objects, I am afraid he will continue to implement it."

Zhu Zhanhe suddenly sighed.

Zhu Gaochi's current temperament, which sounds tough at best, is actually self-willed and even domineering at worst. He cannot tolerate anyone's opposition or listen to anyone's opinions. The more others object, the more he wants to implement it. The purpose is to show the imperial power in his hands.

"What you said is similar to what Xia Shangshu said. So after leaving the Wuying Palace just now, Xia Shangshu immediately asked the British Duke to convene various nobles for discussion. He went to the Sixth Ministry, probably to gather the power of civil and military officials to stop Your Majesty’s wanton behavior this time!”

Zhu Yong said again.

As a result, just as he finished speaking, he saw a servant rushing over to report: "Your Majesty, Mr. Xia and the British Duke are here!"

Zhu Zhanhe and Zhu Yong looked at each other after hearing this, and then immediately stood up and came to the front hall to greet him.

Xia Yuanji and Zhang Fu were seen sitting in the front hall. When they saw Zhu Zhanhe and Zhu Yong coming together, they both stood up.

"Your Majesty, you must know everything. Do you have any good ideas for this?"

Xia Yuanji asked first.

Although they united with civil and military officials, they still had no chance of winning against Zhu Gaochi, so Xia Yuanji thought of looking for Zhu Zhanhe.

"Xia Shangshu thinks too highly of me. What can I do about this kind of thing? Now I can only unite everyone and gather everyone's strength to write a letter to oppose it."

Zhu Zhanhe smiled wryly.

If Zhu Di was the emperor, Zhu Zhanhe might still have the confidence to persuade him to change his mind, but no one can guess what Zhu Gaochi is thinking now. If we go back to before Zhu Gaochi ascended the throne, Zhu Zhanhe would never have thought in his dreams that before and after Zhu Gaochi The change will be so big.

In fact, Zhu Zhanhe cannot be blamed for this, mainly because Zhu Gaochi's reign was too short, and there are very few records about him in history, so Zhu Zhanhe knew almost nothing about Zhu Gaochi's situation after he ascended the throne.

In the original history, Zhu Gaochi changed so much after he ascended the throne that many people find it difficult to believe. He moved the capital to Nanjing and prohibited the fleet from sailing to the Western Ocean. He had done all these things. If Zhu Gaochi hadn't died early, I'm afraid he would have It will also leave a lot of notoriety in history.

"Even the Crown Prince, you said so, it seems we have no choice!"

Xia Yuanji sighed after hearing this.

"Maybe... there is another way!"

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Zhang Fu suddenly spoke.

"What can you do, Mr. British?"

Xia Yuanji and Zhu Zhanhe also looked at Zhang Fu and asked.

"Isn't the King of Han coming back soon? If the King of Han comes to the capital, he may be able to dissuade His Majesty from changing his mind." Zhang Fu replied.

"My father?"

Zhu Zhanhe frowned when he heard this.

Zhu Gaoxu is indeed coming back soon. The last news he received was that the fleet coming back from Tianzhu was already approaching Nanyang. It is estimated that Zhu Gaoxu will be able to arrive in the capital in about two months at most.

"If the King of Han's explosive temper conflicts with His Majesty, wouldn't the consequences be even more serious?"

Zhu Yong suddenly spoke at this time.

In his impression, Zhu Gaoxu was a rude uncle who was always beating people. He was beaten by Zhu Gaoxu a lot back then, and Zhu Gaoxu and the prince had a lot of conflicts in the past. If a conflict broke out now, he couldn't imagine the consequences. What?
"My father has become much more stable these years overseas. There should be no conflicts with my uncle, but I doubt that my uncle will listen to my father's advice?"

Zhu Zhanhe shook his head at this time. Zhu Gaochi had been suppressed for so many years, and now that he had gained power, Zhu Gaojiu had once competed with Zhu Gaochi for the position of prince, so Zhu Zhanhe suspected that it would be useless even if Zhu Gaoji came back.

"I also think that the King of Han may not be able to persuade His Majesty, because according to the information I received, King Zhao had just entered the palace to persuade His Majesty, but it seemed to be of no use. In the end, King Zhao was a little downcast when he left."

Xia Yuanji was well-informed, and a big piece of news broke out again.

Zhu Gaosui must also be opposed to the sea ban, because he also participated in maritime trade and made a lot of money from it. In addition, his fiefdom is in Japan. If the Ming Dynasty bans the sea, the connection between Japan and the Ming Dynasty will definitely be affected, which will directly affect his interests in Japan.

"King Zhao is also frustrated!"

Zhang Fu was also shocked when he heard this. If even Zhu Gaosui couldn't do it, then Zhu Gaoxu's return might not have much effect.

"In that case, we can only unite and jointly oppose uncle's decision. I hope it will be effective."

Zhu Zhanhe also sighed at this time and said that he did not expect that one day he would stand on the same front as Zhu Gaosui against Zhu Gaochi.

"That's all we can do. I have already informed the officials of the Six Ministries and Nine Temples to write the memorial today, and all of us will submit a letter together tomorrow. No matter what, we must make His Majesty take back his orders!"

Xia Yuanji said firmly.

"I have also communicated with various nobles, and we will go to the palace together tomorrow to express our attitude to His Majesty!"

Zhang Fu also spoke at this time. After the nobles learned that Zhu Gaochi wanted to ban the sea, they were all filled with indignation. They even wanted to go to Zhu Gaochi to argue with him now. In the end, Zhang Fu suppressed it and asked everyone to go in together tomorrow. palace.

Seeing that the civil officials and military generals were unanimous, Zhu Zhanhe also felt a little confident. After all, even the emperor could not go against everyone arbitrarily, otherwise who would work for him in the future?

Finally, Zhu Zhanhe discussed some details with Xia Yuanji and Zhang Fu before sending them off in person.

However, when they arrived at the gate of the palace, they saw that the door was full of carriages and horses. Women in luxurious clothes got off the carriages one by one and entered the palace surrounded by maids.

Seeing this situation, Zhu Zhanhe immediately woke up. It seemed that the ladies of the Zhuchai Society had also gotten the news, so they all gathered at the palace to discuss countermeasures. Zhu Gaochi wanted to restart the sea ban, which not only offended the men in the court. , and even more offended these women in charge of sea trade.
