Daming: I, Zhu Di, threatened to seize the heir apparent at the beginning!

Chapter 268 Zhu Yuanzhang consults Zhu Di’s attitude
Royal study.

The lunch celebration party ended.

Zhu Yuanzhang walked in front, and Zhu Biao followed back.

When he saw Ma Xiuying, he smiled and asked, "How is Zhou Lang?"

Hearing this, Ma Xiuying, who was reading a book, looked up and said, "Not as down-to-earth as his son Zhou Shixian, but he is also a person with a bottom line. It basically matches his previous experience as a government servant."

"I have a quick mind, but I am not good at reading, but I am good at learning through practice. I asked a few questions about the fourth child, and he was still secretive about it..."

In fact, she already knew.

This proves that Zhou Lang is quite loyal to Lao Si.

Zhu Yuanzhang stood in front of the desk and pointed at the book in front of Ma Xiuying, "Why do you read Sun Tzu's Art of War?"

Ma Xiuying picked up the book, which was still wrapped in its cover. "This belongs to Zhou Lang. The fourth child made dense annotations on it. Before Zhou Lang joined the army, he gave this book as a gift. Zhou Lang has always carried it with him. I After hearing about it, I was curious and borrowed it to have a look..."

Thinking of how Zhou Lang was afraid of offending her before leaving, and worried that she would be embarrassed if she forgot to return the book.

Ma Xiuying couldn't help but smile and said: "The fourth child's comments are very innovative."

Zhu Yuanzhang took it curiously, looked at it, smiled, and scolded: "I have read his annotations earlier, maybe we won't be so worried!"

"Father, can I take a look?" Zhu Biao asked with a smile.

Zhu Yuanzhang handed it over to Zhu Biao.

After Zhu Biao read a few pages carefully, he looked at Ma Xiuying and said, "Mother, I will go back and copy two copies. I will give you one copy, and I will keep the other one for you to read."

Zhu Yuanzhang and Ma Xiuying frowned slightly.

"Biao'er, we chose you to be the crown prince because we think you are just right. You don't need to compete with your ministers to be the emperor." Zhu Yuanzhang turned around and looked at Zhu Biao seriously, "You don't need to compete with the fourth child either!"

Is it because the fourth child is too good and puts too much pressure on Biao'er?

Zhu Biao shook his head with a smile, "Father, I understand that I will not make the mistake of being jealous of my talent, but I will also meet the wise and think of others, so that I can continue to become better..."

……

At the end, Zhu Biao bowed solemnly: "Father, in fact, I also have a dream of a golden war and an iron horse in my heart. I hope that if there is an opportunity in the future, my father can also give me a chance to lead an army and be brave." Monan and Mobei grasslands..."

He was not jealous of his fourth brother.

He wanted to lead an army, but he didn't want to compete with his fourth brother.

Every man has a dream in his heart.

He has too.

He had never dared to mention it before.

Because he is the prince.

But this time he was worried about his fourth brother, but also secretly envied him.

This was the first time that he had expressed his "deviant" thoughts to his father and mother.

If we don’t say it this time, we may have no chance in the future.

Now that he is the prince, he still has the opportunity to lead the army himself.

But if you inherit the throne.

Even if he thought about it again, the civil and military officials of the entire court would not agree.

Even when you walk out of Jinling City, there will be a bunch of people crying and shouting that it is a waste of money and people.

"Father, I also know a little bit about military affairs. I will prepare carefully from now on. If Father thinks that I can do it, please give me a chance!"

Zhu Yuanzhang and Ma Xiuying saw Zhu Biao solemnly begging.

They looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as the fourth child is not too good and makes Biao'er feel pressured, that's fine.

They can see.

Biao'er really wants to be the commander-in-chief.

This child, who had been the prince for these years, worked conscientiously and did not dare to slack off in the slightest. He suffered many grievances and never came to them to complain.

He rarely makes demands for himself.

This was one of the few people who spoke to them.

Ma Xiuying looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, hesitant, wanting to be satisfied but also worried.

Zhu Yuanzhang pondered for a moment and nodded, "My father can promise you, but only if my father thinks you are qualified."

As he spoke, Ma Xiuying gave Ma Xiuying a look of relief.

When the time comes, he will equip Biao'er with the most luxurious military commanders.

Xu Da, Tang He, Lan Yu, Fu Youde...

All go!

And the bastard fourth child.

All assigned to Biao'er.

Let Biao'er fight a hearty battle to destroy the Yuan!
Correct!
Just destroy Bei Yuan!
This battle pushed Biao'er's reputation to the highest level.

He also has to start preparations from now on.

Food, grass, horses, and weapons should all start to be stored.

For a moment, Zhu Yuanzhang thought a lot.

Zhu Biao was stunned for a moment, then said happily: "Thank you, my dear father!"

He took advantage of the fourth child!
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled, turned around and walked towards the imperial court, and said at the same time: "You don't know that Chang Mao is back in Beijing, right?"

Zhu Biao was stunned.

"It was Feng Sheng who sent him back to Jinling for activities. After he came back more than ten days ago, he directly approached Lan Yu. Feng Sheng's compromise was so great that even my father was moved..."

……

Zhu Biao listened patiently.

Secretly startled.

It's just a matter of resigning as the commander-in-chief of Liaodong, but he is actually willing to personally promote the shoulder label in the direct line of Liaodong.

……

"Lanyu sent Chang Mao to your Uncle Tang's house in Fengyang at five o'clock the next day. He was worried that the fourth child would kill Feng Sheng and would involve you."

"I guess the Fourth Brother will take action soon. Tell me what you think about this matter?"

Ma Xiuying sat in the left corner, at the desk in front of the bookshelf, frowning slightly.

Zhu Biao pondered for a moment and raised his head, "Father, the fourth child suspects that Feng Sheng has plotted against him. Does the fourth child have any evidence?"

"Impossible!" Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and was very sure, "We have been dealing with Feng Sheng for decades and know Feng Sheng very well. No matter how deep Feng Sheng's involvement in this matter is, there is no way he can leave any clue."

There are two men in the army who almost never make mistakes.

Feng Sheng, Fu Youde.

Feng Sheng has dark hands and is as cunning as a fox, leaving no clues in what he does.

Fu Youde is a cautious person and never does anything beyond his limits.

After Zhu Biao thought for a while, he raised his head, allowing his expression and eyes to be completely exposed to Zhu Yuanzhang's sight. "If there is no evidence, I object that the fourth brother will be executed based on suspicion alone."

"Go on, it's just us and your mother, you can say whatever you want." Zhu Yuanzhang encouraged.

He was not surprised at all by Biao'er's answer.

But he was not satisfied with this answer.

Zhu Biao took a deep breath and continued, "First of all, punishing someone without guilt is breaking the rules, and I will never allow it."

"Secondly, through his marriage to the Chang family, Feng Sheng is considered by outsiders to be a prince, no matter whether his sons and ministers want to admit it or not."

"If Erchen indulges his fourth brother and kills Feng Sheng without sin, the supporters of Erchen will be disappointed."

……

He is a prince first.

Carrying a country on our shoulders.

Then he and the fourth child are brothers.

Just like Lu Ben and Lan Yu made trouble for the fourth child before, he could stop them, but he couldn't punish them severely.

"From now on, if the fourth child catches Feng Sheng's hand, I will do it myself without the fourth child opening his mouth, but not this time!"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction. This was the answer he wanted.

At the same time, this is also the helplessness of being an emperor and a successor.

"What if the fourth child falls out with you?"

Zhu Biao then smiled and said, "Father, if the fourth child is angry, let him make a fuss. When he calms down, I will patiently explain to him that I have to play the dual roles of prince and brother. He will definitely understand. My problem."

Ma Xiuying listened in the distance and breathed a sigh of relief silently.

"Caomin Zhu Silang asks to see you!"

A voice suddenly came from outside the hall.

Ma Xiuying smiled bitterly.

Get up and walk behind the bookshelf.

She won't come out to start a fight this time. If the father and son quarrel, let them quarrel.

This is an opportunity to get in touch.

Zhu Yuanzhang's lips twitched and he looked around...

A tall, handsome bastard stood outside the palace door.

His bastard son is good at everything.

Have a good skin.Excellent, Yun Wen Yunwu.

But there is only one bad thing.

Debt collector!

Listen!

Zhu Silang, a grass-roots man!
Before this thing even started, the knife started swishing.

"Get in!"

The sound came out.

Outside the palace door, the corners of Zhu Di's lips slightly raised. These words had proved that his judgment was correct.

Lost and found, the old man's feelings for him are in a very special period.

For example, if a child has been away from home for a long time and suddenly comes home, in the first few days, the parents will make all kinds of delicious food and they will like it very much.

But as time passed, Baozhun grew tired of each other and disliked each other in various ways.

He and the old man are in conflict with each other.

This special feeling cannot last long.

Not now, when?
"Grassman..."

"Zhu Xiucai, you have fame now, so you are exempted." Zhu Di came to the imperial case and was about to salute when Zhu Yuanzhang gave him a yin and yang.

Zhu Biao lowered his head to hold back laughter.

"A pair of treasured father and son!" Behind the bookshelf, Ma Xiuying held a book and shook her head in confusion.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Di and laughed angrily: "Can't you be a bit promising? Let's hold such a big triumphal ceremony for you. Tell me what you did! If you go home later, Miaoyun can run away!"

……

Today he showed off his displeasure.

Every time I want the bastard Fourth to show off around me.

This bastard is definitely not around.

This was the case last time I took the exam.

This time again!

Zhu Di listened patiently to the old man's complaints.

After a while, Zhu Yuanzhang calmed down, stopped, and asked angrily: "I don't need you now, what are you doing here?"

Zhu Di's expression became serious, he cupped his fists and said, "My dear, please kill Feng Sheng!"

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao were not surprised at all.

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Zhu Biao from the corner of his eye and said in a deep voice: "Feng Sheng has resigned from the Liaodong Army Corps and is willing to use his direct lineage to experiment with shoulder marks on a larger scale. What if we want to give Feng Sheng a chance?"

It would be best if I could convince the fourth child.

To avoid a conflict between the two brothers later.

Zhu Di was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that this old fox would be willing to pay such a high price.

Exchange of interests is very common in political struggles.

But not everything can be exchanged without a bottom line.

At least, it doesn't work here.

Immediately, he raised his head and said with firm eyes: "If my father disagrees, I will set off today, rush to Liaodong, and kill Feng Sheng myself!"

Snapped!
"How dare you!" Zhu Yuanzhang slammed the table and stood up angrily. His lips trembled angrily and he glared at Zhu Di.

The bastard fourth child!

How dare he do this.

Zhu Biao looked at Zhu Di thoughtfully.

He got it.

This is Lao Si's plan.

Let me first mention a bold idea that makes my father angry.

As expected, Lao Si will soon come up with another way to kill Feng Sheng.

There are definitely some violations in this method, and it is by no means a real way to catch Feng Sheng.

But it must be easier for my father to accept than the first idea.

This is a very clever strategy.

With the first idea as a foreshadowing, the fourth child proposes a method that is more acceptable to the father, and the father will feel happy in his heart.

Most likely they will accept it.

This old man has so many ideas!

Zhu Biao shook his head and stood up, "Fourth, even if my father agrees, I don't agree. I never agree. If you have no evidence, kill Feng Sheng!"

Behind the bookshelf, Ma Xiuying couldn't help but tighten her hand holding the book.

Although I want the father and son to have a quarrel and get along.

But when it really happens.

She still couldn't help but worry.

"Brother, who said I have no evidence?" Zhu Di turned his head with a smile.

Ma Xiuying was stunned.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao were shocked.

Zhu Di took out a letter from his arms and held it in front of Zhu Yuanzhang with both hands. "This is a letter written by Li Chenggui's second son, Li Fanguo, to Li Chenggui."

"Li Fangguo mentioned to Li Chenggui in the letter that Feng Sheng hinted to him that he would betray his subordinates to Naha and sneak attack Gaizhou from the waterway..."

After Li Chenggui surrendered.

Some mysteries were finally revealed.

For example, Li Fanguo once approached Feng Sheng.

And Feng Sheng put the blame on Naha and asked Li Fangguo to go to Naha to ask for an explanation.

Li Chenggui did not record these inside stories in writing.

It was the message Li Fangguo sent his servants to bring back.

Through this series of events, it is not difficult to guess the cause of the problem in the waterway in the first place.

In this matter, the second brother and the third brother did make a mistake.

They looked down upon the Goryeo Lee family and did not take the Goryeo Lee family seriously, so they seized the ships.

The people sent were also detained directly.

This kind of arrogant mentality is common among the generals of the Ming Dynasty.

In fact, if it weren't for the fact that the Li family wanted to use this matter to build a relationship with Feng Sheng, they sent Li Fanguo out tentatively.

Even if the second and third brothers are arrogant, nothing will happen to them.

It can only be said that too many coincidences came together.

But Feng Sheng, as the commander-in-chief of Liaodong and the immediate boss of his brothers who died in the battle, should not betray his brothers to outsiders!
This kind of behavior is even more despicable and shameful than him finding excuses to kill his brothers with military law!
……

Now that you know the whole process.

It's not hard to fabricate a letter.

Feng Sheng can do everything without leaking.

He can also create evidence!
Zhu Yuanzhang took the letter, looked deeply at Zhu Di, and checked the contents of the letter.

"If your father doesn't believe it, you can send someone to Goryeo to get Li Fanguo's daily writing manuscripts. Comparing the handwriting will naturally prove whether this letter is true or false."

"The servants who followed Li Fanguo also met Feng Sheng at that time and can also testify!"

……

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Zhu Di.

He was quite sure that the letter was fake.

Feng Sheng would never speak so clearly.

He knew Feng Sheng too well.

But he is also very sure that the fourth child is also impeccable, so there is no need to go to Korea to verify.

The handwriting on this letter is probably Li Chenggui's.

At that time, the Goryeo Li family will bring out some of Li Chenggui's daily writing manuscripts.

This is the fourth child!
As long as he strikes, he will be ruthless!
Lan Yu, Lu Ben, and then Feng Sheng!
Among the children, the fourth child is most like him.

If Biao'er had a character like Lao Si, he could safely leave Daming to Biao'er.

To be an emperor is not to be a humble gentleman.

Not to be a saint who is not stained by dust.

Being an emperor is enforcing the law!
Law enforcement for the world!
Zhu Yuanzhang put down the letter and saw that Zhu Biao was in a daze. He sat down slowly, pondered for a while, and asked, "I asked Uncle Tang to take you with this letter to Liaodong and let Feng Sheng commit suicide. Are you satisfied?" "

When Lao Si took out such a letter, he had actually considered Biao'er to avoid Biao'er's embarrassment.

This made him very relieved.
