The two of them showed a helpless look while chatting, Zhu Zhanqian said suddenly: "I just said why the second uncle has not done anything for a long time. According to the second uncle's ability, how can my elder brother be the second uncle's opponent? Using troops to fight wars is comparable to the second uncle when the emperor was alive, and it turns out that the emperor made the second uncle take the same oath as me, and the far-reaching plans of the emperor for his children and grandchildren are really admirable."

What do you mean? Just go down the slope and push the boat along the river.

Zhu Gaoxu also went on to say: "Father is really far-sighted. The third child wrote to me, and he also persuaded me. He said that Father also told him the same thing and made him swear that he didn't want the relationship between us brothers. There was a dispute."

Upon hearing the third uncle Zhu Gaosui, Zhu Zhanqian couldn't help laughing. Zhu Zhanqian was able to accurately understand Zhu Gaoxu's state and the situation in Hangzhou Mansion. The third uncle contributed a lot. As for whether Zhu Di said these words, he and his second uncle acted Dutiful sons and grandsons can't pull him up to confront him.

"Second Uncle, in fact, our family has broken bones and connected tendons. Now a bunch of people just want to watch us make trouble. We make trouble to the death. These people reward each other for their merits. Doesn't it make people think it's a joke? It’s not okay to take advantage of it.”

Zhu Zhanqian slapped the table excitedly and stood up: "I have to write a letter and talk to my father, I can't always listen to the group of civil servants, these people have never fought a war, and they have never seen anyone die. Talking about benevolence, righteousness and morality is not to frame other people's benevolence and morality, and they themselves will get promoted and get rich, no, this will not work."

Zhu Gaoxu seemed to see a confidant, and said emotionally: "Zhan Yan, you are still sober, you are more and more like a prince now, our Zhu family is blessed by our ancestors to have a son like you."

"Second uncle praised me. I am still young and inexperienced. I just watched a few uncles imitate the same." Zhu Zhanqian said "sorry" all over his face.

Yu Qian watched the two suddenly start flattering each other, and this flattery was too straightforward.

But he also understood that although Zhu Zhanyi seemed to be flattering Zhu Gaoxu, he told Zhu Gaoxu that he would speak for Zhu Gaoxu in the court.

Zhu Zhanqian's words still have weight, how much weight?The weight of Daming Sea King is the weight of one-third of Daming's economic discourse power.

Zhu Zhanqian took a sip of the tea, and then said, "Second Uncle, we are actually thinking about the country, and we all blame Chen Yun, a spy, and those people in the court who shouted to be beaten and killed. Second Uncle is a sensible person. Man, I thought that if Second Uncle, let's sit down and have a good talk, and find a way to let him go over this matter."

"It's all like this, how can you live? Can you live with your father, can you live with your elder brother?"

As soon as this remark came out, Yu Qian understood that Zhu Gaoxu had surrendered his intention.

"Second Uncle, don't worry, our own family's affairs can still make you die. I will guarantee Second Uncle with my life."

Zhu Gaoxu patted Zhu Zhanqian's shoulder in relief: "I still think you are the most suitable emperor."

"Second Uncle, it's not fun to say that."

"Man, the best choice is to have the initiative in your own hands, so you can choose whatever you want." Zhu Gaoxu said meaningfully.

"Second Uncle, why don't you surrender, I'll go and talk to Emperor Father, you will still be your King of Han."

"Lord Han? I'm afraid I won't be able to be the king. After all this trouble, I'm afraid it's a dream to think about glory and wealth." Zhu Gaoxu lay back on the back of the mahogany chair, speaking leisurely but with an extremely dignified expression.

"The imperial court asked you to persuade you to surrender, what conditions did you use?"

"One tael of gold, the entire Western Regions, let the second uncle rule the Western Regions and establish a king system. This system will be explained in detail by the officials of the Honglu Temple. It is probably like the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty when the Khanate was entrusted."

Zhu Gaoxu smiled disdainfully: "How can you allow others to snore beside the couch, I'm afraid this king has a lot of restrictions and little military power."

"I'll ask the people from Honglu Temple to discuss the details with you."

Zhu Gaoxu's attitude became very relaxed, he waved and said, "Let the people from Honglu Temple come."

Zhu Zhanqian ordered people to pick up the people from Honglu Temple on the warship he was on when he came. They needed to talk about the details, and they had to record some of the needs of the King of Han. Zhu Zhanqian had the authority to respond to the next part. If the requirements are too high, Zhu Zhanqian can't agree to them privately, and these people must be registered in the register.

On the way to pick him up, Yu Qian asked Zhu Zhanqi very curiously: "Your Highness seems to be very sure. The Lord of Han wants to make peace with you. How does His Highness have such confidence?"

He really didn't understand why Zhu Gaoxu agreed to the peace talks after Zhu Zhanqian just said a few words.

"I know Second Uncle well. Since we first arrived, Second Uncle wanted to talk to us, but I deliberately delayed it. As long as he wants to talk, we have the initiative." Zhu Zhanqian smiled slightly.

Yu Qian looked at Zhu Zhanqin very seriously: "Your Highness, I think this should not be the case. Just relying on Your Highness's understanding of the King of Han, you can completely control the behavior of the King of Han. It is really unbelievable that a non-wealthy minister does not trust His Highness."

"It seems that I can't fool you." Zhu Zhanqian laughed and threw a letter to Yu Qian.

Yu Qian opened it and saw that it was none other than the letter from Lord Zhao Zhu Gaosui.

People's confidence comes from a detailed grasp of the whole picture of things.

Everyone knows that Zhu Gaosui belongs to the faction of the Prince of Han, the iron-clad Erye Party.

But my third uncle, saying that he is a grass on the wall, is really a compliment to the grass on the wall. He basically rides on the top of the wall and observes the direction of the wind at any time. Before the wind comes, he has already moved first.

He naturally flirted with Zhu Gaoxu at the beginning, but he never firmly stood by Zhu Gaoxu's side, but he was more inclined.

Later, he gradually realized that Zhu Gaoxu's side was obviously getting worse and worse, so he immediately turned his gun. He knew that his identity was sensitive, so if he went directly to Zhu Gaochi or Zhu Zhanji, he might still be suspected by others. After thinking about it, Zhu Zhanqian seemed to be the best buffer zone, so he sent all the information he said he had to Zhu Zhanqian.

It’s definitely hard to get rid of the relationship, but he knows Zhu Zhanqian. If he can help him, Zhu Zhanqian will definitely talk to him, and it won’t intensify the conflict between him and Zhu Gaochi. Although the relationship is not very good, but there is no conflict, Zhu Zhanqian will never deliberately target him.

Yu Qian looked at Zhu Gaosui's letter, and after reading it, he suddenly realized that King Zhao had a very detailed grasp of the situation on the King of Han's side, and the most important information in it was that the king's subordinates and generals did not want to fight anymore.

The most important generals under the King of Han basically have their family members in the capital. Because of the false imperial edict, it happened suddenly, and it was impossible to bring them all out, so they had scruples in their hearts.

In the beginning, we worked with the Lord of Han. If the Lord of Han inherits the great rule, several people can be named marquis and worship, and his wife and son, but as time dragged on, everyone's confidence was not enough.

Disagreement among people is a taboo in war.

Those who were led by the King of Han to fight naturally knew the consequences of disunity in the hearts of the people. The disparity in the strength of their own troops was already huge.

There is another very important reason is that Lord Han has no money.

Of course, this lack of money does not mean that the King of Han himself has no money, but that the accounts of the two feudal vassals have no money.

Zhejiang and Fujian have a lot of tax revenue, especially in Zhejiang, the tax revenue is only lower than that of the two capitals and the Guangdong feudal clan. Half of the richest places in the world are in the south of the Yangtze River. Before the rise of the Guangdong feudal clan, Zhejiang and Yingtian were the richest places.

However, because the King of Han spends money lavishly and without restraint, and from time to time, he even sets up a name to get it into his own account. Naturally, the generals who follow him also make a lot of money, but when they really need money, especially now that there is a lot of overspending At that time, the financial account was obviously not enough.

Does Lord Han's family still have money?Of course there are, and there are a lot of them, but Lord Han puts more emphasis on personal interests, and the money he takes in is for him to take out. How is this possible?
There are not enough people, not enough money, and his imperial decree has been found to be false in public opinion. Does he not know whether it is true or false?
At the beginning when Chen Yun came up and said to give him this imperial edict to help him with the internal response in the capital, could he not understand that there was something wrong with it?It's just that if there is a chance for the throne, why wouldn't he want to fight for it? It's not impossible to learn from his father.

When everything is not good for him, he doesn't want to fight anymore, the odds of winning are too small, but a reasonable excess is necessary for things to happen like this, and he has to preserve his own glory, wealth, and military authority Otherwise, he knew that he would definitely be liquidated. If Zhu Gaochi didn't liquidate him, Zhu Zhanji would too.

After all, in Guan Daming these years, fighting between uncles and nephews has almost become a traditional event.

After reading the letter, Yu Qian asked: "Since Your Highness knew that the King of Han intended to surrender, why didn't you talk about it earlier."

"If someone wants to go downstairs, you have to give him steps. Second uncle has always been a person who pushes his nose and face. If I am in a hurry to talk to him, he will definitely make some unreasonable demands. For example, he said before that I should be the emperor. Give him steps, but not too early, otherwise he may not necessarily go downstairs."

"Even if the King of Han doesn't step down the steps, the imperial court is not afraid of him." Yu Qian felt that the imperial court was tyrannical.

Zhu Zhanqian shook his head and sighed: "Hey, like the people in the court, you are too radical in everything. If the second uncle died at the hands of the father, although the father did not personally order the killing, but once the two armies fight, Ming All the generals and scholars wanted to take the leader of the King of Han, and they really killed the second uncle. How will the history books write about my father, who attaches so much importance to fame, and you, Yu Qian, will help him bear the record of killing brothers in the history books. But the people in the cabinet can take care of it."

"But Lord Han really rebelled."

"Rebellion? Where did the King of Han rebel?"

"Ah?" Yu Qian was confused by Zhu Zhanqian's words.

Zhu Zhanqian said with a relaxed face: "There is no rebellious prince who calls himself the king. The prince of Han has not overstepped his words and deeds. He was just deceived by the bastard Chen Yun and asked for an explanation with a false edict. Now that the matter of Chen Yun has come to light, Lord Han is fine, and the two sides have not fought, have they?"

Yu Qian suddenly realized that Zhu Gaoxu raised his troops in the name of the imperial decree from the very beginning. Zhu Gaochi has already been enthroned here, and he has not made any other movements. If he really rebelled, he should also set up his own enthronement.

Lord Han, this is a typical middle-aged man, try it first, continue if you can, if you can't, go to sleep if you don't feel well today.

If he really ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, the two sides would have to fight if they didn't fight.

Both Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaochi were very restrained in this matter.

From the very beginning, Lord Han thought about the way forward. I, Zhu Gaoxu, did not rebel, and I, Zhu Gaoxu, did not rebel.

I tried it, but no one supported me, and I didn’t think it would work, so let’s forget about it. I clearly understand Bai Zhu Gaoxu, and I clearly understand Prince Chu Han.

If it weren't for the fact that Lord Han himself has too many minor problems, his overall view is indeed very good.

You must know that Zhu Gaochi is surrounded by a group of cabinets who are helping him to make suggestions. Because Hanwang doesn't think much of the above-mentioned people, he can only think of many things by himself.

Yu Qian was shocked by the operation of the King of Han. He is still a vassal king who seeks his own interests. He said that he still seeks his own interests in the end after his actions today, but his thoughts are indeed more careful, and people should not be judged by appearances.

But what shocked him even more was the young man in front of him, the king of Han and the emperor were very scheming, understandable.

The young man in front of him can see this matter so thoroughly, his words are full of transparency and open-mindedness, but he has a mature air in his teens, and he has a good skin, which makes people feel that he is out of this world. gas.

I have been with him for a long time, and I feel that he is not a sinister and cunning person. He has the power to plan the city and the heart of the people. He has many means and plans, but in the end he still has his own heart.

There are such people in the world.

Perhaps the words of Lord Han are correct, and this His Highness will be a better emperor.

For a moment, Yu Qian was in such a trance, that he had the same thoughts as Lord Han, thinking that Zhu Zhanqian should be the emperor.

Zhu Zhanqian took over the people from Honglu Temple, and the people from Han Wangye's side also sat down, and the two sides talked face to face.

Now that Lord Han is willing to talk about peace, now it is time to negotiate conditions. There is no doubt that Lord Han will open his mouth like a lion, but these people are also people who have experienced battles and will not agree to everything. China's direct veto and peace talks are not a one-day matter.

King Han didn't like to talk to such a well-mannered person. He listened to it in a slow manner, which gave Han King a headache. On the second day of the peace talks, he felt uncomfortable, so he led his troops to Yingtian Mansion again, and only returned after scolding him again.

Poor Zhu Zhanji, obviously got the news that the peace talks had already started, and he had to be scolded, and he had no place to vent his anger, holding back his anger.

On the night of the fourth day of the peace talks, Zhu Gaoxu came to see Zhu Zhanqian, who was still on the West Lake cruise ship.

"Zhan Qian, the peace talks are almost over. If there is no accident, your second uncle and I will be sent to the frontiers of the Western Regions, and we will have to live by the wind and sand from now on." Zhu Gaoxu shook his head and sighed.

He wanted to stay in the south of the Yangtze River, but the imperial court insisted on killing him. This was absolutely impossible. The King of Han had also figured out the bottom line of both sides, and the imperial court would not let him occupy such a good place again.

"Second Uncle, the road to the Western Regions has been opened, and business exchanges will be frequent in the future, and it will not be worse than Jiangnan in the future."

"Apart from beauties and raisins, there is nothing in the Western Regions that can compare with Jiangnan."

Zhu Zhanyan was eating the raisins in the bowl, which was what Zhu Gaoxu said to get acquainted with the local food in advance.

"Second Uncle, I don't think this is a bad thing for you. The Western Region is so big. The re-established Western Region Kingdom is several times larger than your current domain. It is not impossible to go further west."

Zhu Gaoxu looked at Zhu Zhanqian with some doubts: "Further to the west? That's your uncle's territory."

"It won't be good for uncle to be our family in the future." Zhu Zhanxi giggled.

"Your boy said that you are ambitious, but you are really ambitious. If you say you have no ambition, the emperor will not argue. I really don't understand you." Zhu Gaoxu's expression was complicated: "It seems that you have some plans?"

"Second Uncle, do you still remember Zheng He?"

"How could you not remember? You fooled me into saying that the earth is round, and now I don't know where it is."

"Second Uncle, these years merchant ships have gone to Nanyang and the West. We have discovered that Tianzhu is the Timurid Empire, and there is still a lot of land to the west. Why don't we develop these places?"

Zhu Gaoxu narrowed his eyes slightly and smiled: "So I will go by land, and you will go by sea?"

"It's still easier to talk to the second uncle."
