Daming: At the start of the showdown, Lao Zhu was stunned

Chapter 86

"Who is this son?" Hearing Zhu Su say "Trick dad over there too", Lao Zhu's eyes could not help but show a fierce light.As soon as Zhu Su said this, he couldn't wait to ask each other.

Zhu Biao frowned deeply, thinking which younger brother might have the deep scheming described in Lao Wu's words.Empress Ma saw the clue from the word "virtuous grandson", and asked with a pale face, "Could it be...Could it be that Emperor Jianwen is the heroic child in Chang's womb..."

"No." Zhu Su shook his head. "This Emperor Jianwen is the second son of the eldest brother, and his name is Zhu Yunqi!"

"It...is still my son?" Zhu Biao couldn't believe it.Just now when Zhu Su said that it was not Zhu Xiongying, he was still relieved, thinking with lingering fears that if he had known in advance that his wife was pregnant with such a rebellious child, how would he go back to the house to face his beloved wife.Unexpectedly, a second son suddenly appeared before his eldest son was born, and he was honored to receive such a gnashing evaluation from his fifth brother.His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who has always been gentle and gentle, could stuff a whole big egg into his mouth in shock.

"Where is Xiongying? Chang is Biao'er's first wife, and the child must be a first-line son, and you said that her baby must be a boy. Why did Xiongying not succeed to the throne, but this troublesome son Zhu Yunqi appeared?" Old Zhu asked. .

"Xiongying...died early at the age of eight. His biological mother, Chang, gave birth to his elder brother's third son Zhu Yunxi in the 11th year of Hongwu. He also died of postpartum weakness after only eleven days after giving birth. "

"After Chang's death, eldest brother's side concubine, Lu, was able to recuperate, and Zhu Yunqi, who was originally the bastard son of Lu, also has the qualifications to inherit the throne..."

"What! Fifth Brother, what did you say..." Zhu Biao's face suddenly turned pale. "You said... my eldest son, Xiongying... only lived to be eight years old?"

"And your sister-in-law...will leave me in six years?"

Knowing such a tragedy all of a sudden, Zhu Biao couldn't bear the blow, so he couldn't stand still and sat down on the chair.

"Xiongying also..." First learned that the eldest son only lived to 25 years in Hongwu, and then learned that the eldest grandson Xiongying, who is now highly regarded by the couple, can only live to be eight years old. Empress Ma felt dizzy and said in her mouth He murmured: "God, why are you so thin on my descendants!"

"Why are you so thin on my descendants!"

"Don't be in a hurry." Zhu Su hastily persuaded. "Since we know that my sister-in-law suffered a postpartum loss, it's easy to be wary. As for Xiongying, the child's early death must be due to congenital deficiency. I have already told my sister-in-law about the method of raising the fetus in a calm manner. If you rely on it, it may be safe. Baoxiong grew up safely. You don't have to lament like this!"

"Okay! Good boy!" Empress Ma only felt hopeful, stroking Zhu Su's hand with great emotion.Seeing that Xiao Wu'er was so considerate of her sister-in-law and nephew, she felt extremely guilty for her previous suspicions.

"Since the Chang family still left Zhu Yunxie behind, why did we set up Zhu Yunqiu, the son of Laoshi?" Old Zhu was still very concerned about the words that even he had lied to, and continued to ask.Zhu Su then said to the old Zhu: "Although Zhu Yunxi was born to his sister-in-law, he lost his mother when he was young. At that time, the elder brother had already taken on a lot of affairs and was often on tour outside. It is inevitable that he was neglected to teach him."

"There is also an unofficial history saying that his stepwife, Mrs. Lu, was scheming in the inner house. Although she treated Zhu Yunxi as an equal on the surface, she actually did not discipline her. She let him go around in order to see him as evil to his grandfather."

"Furthermore, she taught Zhu Yunxuan to observe words and demeanor, and she deliberately cried loudly at the funeral of the prince Zhu Biao to win her grandfather's love. This Zhu Yunxuan was even more filial to my grandfather, er, father, in his later years, and his filial piety is well known in the government and the public. I finally touched your heart and made him your grandson."

After listening to the history of Zhu Yunqi's superiority, Empress Ma frowned slightly: "The words of unofficial history are not to be believed. Since Zhu Yunqi knows how to be filial, he is not a good boy. Why did you say that about him before, Su'er?"

"Good boy? Just him? Heh." Zhu Su sneered. "Even from the point of view of official history, this guy is undoubtedly a ruthless and ruthless person for fame and fame! Just continue to listen to me."

"Historically, after you passed away, as soon as Zhu Yunwen succeeded to the throne, he wantonly appointed the civil servants who had been suppressed by Emperor Hongwu before, and he couldn't wait to start, preparing to start the first major event during his reign."

"This major event is called: Cutting down the feudal clan!"

"Cutting down the feudal clan?" Old Zhu frowned.It's not a problem for the emperor to want to cut down the vassal. In the former Han Dynasty, there was a threat to the imperial power because of the power of the vassal king.But it had to cut down the feudal clan.It's just that I had just died at that time, could it be that the vassal kings of all places were already too big to lose?Will I be so stupid in my old age?
Lao Zhu feels that things are definitely not that simple.

Zhu Su smiled coldly, his disgust towards Zhu Yunwen was beyond words.

"My good nephew, cutting down the clan is not just cutting down the clan."

"The ones that were cut off are all the heads of our dear uncles!"

Regardless of Lao Zhu, Empress Ma, and Zhu Biao's terrified bodies again, Zhu Su continued: "Let's talk about me, King Zhu of Zhou first. Oh, because the land of Wu is rich, you think it's not suitable to be a feudal king. I changed the title to Zhou Wang. Zhou Wang Zhu Xi was close to Sai Wang Zhu Di, who holds a heavy army, so he was the first to deal with it, and he was sent to southern Xinjiang on trumped-up charges."

"The king of Qi, Zhu Yu, was distributed in the same way."

"The acting king, Zhu Gui, was charged with cruelty and was sent directly to prison for custody."

"The king of Min, Zhu Wei, was also crowned with an unwarranted name and deposed as a commoner."

"The king of Hunan, Zhu Bo, was convicted of printing money privately, and wanted to be captured and imprisoned. The king of Xiang was so violent that he couldn't bear the humiliation, and his whole family set themselves on fire in the mansion."

"When he finished these things, he had just ascended the throne for two years..."

"You bastard! You bastard!" Old Zhu was furious, wishing that Emperor Jianwen was right in front of him, so he could grab him and strangle him to death. "He's going to attack our son before our bones are cold!"

"How can there be a family relationship in his heart? How can there be a family relationship!"

"This is Zhu Yunwen. According to historical records, he once asked you: 'The kings are not peaceful, who will rule them?'. You asked him: 'What do you think?'. This fellow replied at that time: 'Embrace it with virtue and respect it with courtesy. To control it, if it is impossible, it will cut down its land;

The translation is: use virtue to win their hearts, and then use etiquette to restrain their behavior. If it doesn't work, it will weaken their territory. If it doesn't work, they will change their fiefdom.

What a standard and benevolent answer?What a "sincere, pure and filial" grandson!But when Lao Zhu died, he sacrificed the butcher's knife without hesitation!

Lao Zhu's complexion became more and more ugly, and finally he roared, raised his hand and smashed the empty bowl that was used to hold the medicine: "Even our grandfather is lying!"

"Inhuman! Is he still a human being!"
