Chapter 341

Zhu Zhanji originally looked drunk, but after hearing Zhu Zhanhe's words, his eyes suddenly widened and he stared at Zhu Zhanhe.

Not many people know that Sun Ruowei is pregnant, because Sun Ruowei felt unwell some time ago, and the person who diagnosed her was not an imperial doctor, but a palace maid who knew some medical skills.

result……

After learning that Sun Ruowei was pregnant, Zhu Zhanji's first reaction was to get rid of the palace maid, but now the palace is no longer up to him.

But fortunately, although he can't make a person disappear out of thin air without a trace, and without leaving any clues, he can make this person stay by his side forever, without leaving a step.

But Zhu Zhanji didn't know how his cousin knew the news.

"Don't say anything hypocritical and rotten. If you really want to say it, it can only be you, not me."

Zhu Zhanhe pushed Sun Ruowei aside and watched her covering her belly nervously. Zhu Zhanhe didn't care.

Because after he revealed that Sun Ruowei was pregnant, she had no idea of ​​stepping forward.

"Yes, I restricted your actions, but did I really restrict it? You know it yourself."

"It is true that everyone who enters Qingning Palace will be interrogated by my crown prince's guards, but when you leave Qingning Palace, you will only be followed by someone, not that you will not be allowed to go out."

"Have you never gone out? To greet the Queen Mother, to worship in front of the uncle's coffin, or even to leave the inner city of the palace to go to Xiyuan. Did I stop you?"

While saying this, Zhu Zhanhe pulled out the chamberlain behind Zhu Zhanhe.

"How courageous are you? Dare you send news to the British government without telling everyone?"

"Shi...His Royal Highness, spare your life...His Royal Highness, spare your life!"

Wang Zhen knelt on the ground with a plop, kowtowing continuously, and even his forehead turned red.

"Humph!"

Zhu Zhanhe snorted coldly, turned around and left, leaving only his voice still floating in the air.

"The chariot has been prepared for you. Today is the anniversary of Grandpa's death. Even if you don't want to go, you must go!"

"In addition, the uncle's mausoleum has been almost completed, and he will be able to enter the mausoleum next month."

"When the time comes, go ahead..."

……

Wan'an Street.

People on Wan'an Street are not qualified to know what happened in the palace, and it is impossible to know, because the people living here can only be said to be low-level people.

Of course, this is the Shuntian Imperial City after all. Ordinary people do not have the qualifications or the money to live here. Even if they are not qualified, the people living here are relatively small, but for ordinary people, they are still rich. businessman.

However, there is no shortage of ordinary people here, because in March of this era, the ice and snow have not yet melted, and it is still winter. There are many people in the entire Suncheon Imperial City who take advantage of the cold winter to come out to work to support their families.

What these people like to talk about most is the affairs of officials, nobles, and even emperors and relatives.

However, in this most ordinary teahouse on Wan'an Street, there were two people sitting there who clearly should not belong here.

Their clothes are incompatible with this place.

"Have you thought of any ideas?" Yu Qian looked at Zhu Zhanluo in front of him with a sad face.

Although today's Ming Dynasty is not the Ming Dynasty he expected, it is still much better than in the past.

Because, if the Ming Dynasty under Zhu Zhanhe's rule was not as good as he expected, then the Ming Dynasty under Zhu Zhanji's rule was really bad.

What's more, Yu Qian has a share of the credit for what Ming Dynasty is like now.

Although when Zhu Zhanhe came to Beijing, he did not have any use for the people brought by Qian Yong in the Japanese country and the people arranged by Xiangzhou Prefecture in the Ryukyu Kingdom, but it has to be said that without these two arrangements, Zhu Zhanji would definitely rise up to resist of.

The ending may not change much, and Zhu Zhanhe's victory is unquestionable, because this is basically a cat catching a mouse, but it has to be said that it was these two arrangements that led to Zhu Zhanji's death. With your mind at ease, let Zhu Zhanhe...

No, it should be said that it saved Shuntian Mansion from a big war.

Therefore, after Zhu Zhanhe took over the Ming Dynasty, Yu Qian quickly adapted and devoted himself to the lifelong career he had been striving for.

However, regarding the matter of Wala, Zhu Zhanhe gave Zhu Zhanhe a homework assignment and asked him and Yu Qian to discuss ways to deal with Wala.

Moreover, no power outside the Central Plains can be used, including the power of Xiangzhou Prefecture, and those who have been stationed at Iwadao Iwami Ginzan and Sado Jinshan all year round.

In other words, Zhu Zhanhe asked Zhu Zhanhe to think of a solution from Zhu Zhanji's perspective.

This did not stump Zhu Zhanluo, but it stumped Yu Qian.

"What are you thinking of?" Zhu Zhanluo took a sip of tea and looked at the chattering crowd in front of him with a nonchalant look.

"It's the one His Royal Highness left for you... to do... oh yes, homework."

"There's no need to think about it." Zhu Zhanluo put down the tea cup in his hand, but his eyes still stayed on those chattering people.

"My eldest brother just wants to tell me that Sima Fa once said: No matter how big a country is, if it likes war, it will perish, and if it forgets to fight, it will be in danger."

"Grassland, he didn't intend to completely solve it from the beginning. Maybe he will solve it, but in that case, the Eastern Chagatai Khanate will be left behind."

"In the final analysis, this is a pressure left by our eldest brother to us and future generations, forcing us and future generations to continue to work hard instead of enjoying themselves."

"But..." Yu Qian was stunned, he couldn't figure it out.

"But artillery! Wala has artillery now! Even if Wala doesn't have the forging method of artillery and the ratio of gunpowder, it will definitely be found after a long time!"

"So what?" Zhu Zhanluo finally withdrew his gaze and focused on Yu Qian.

"My elder brother said that nomadic people make a living in the grasslands. Even if they aspire to dominate the Central Plains like the Mongolians, they will still regard the grasslands as their last resort. Even if they choose the capital, they will only choose Shuntian, which is neither south nor north. "

"The trading market for Wala was stopped after my eldest brother took control of the Ming Dynasty. But didn't Wala send someone after the year? He was also the eldest son of Tupolo. Since then, the eldest brother has reopened the trading market, and to express his feelings, Increased share of wool trade.”

"With the wool trade, I can't tell if it's close, but within ten years, Wala will either move south or north."

At this point, Zhu Zhanhe stopped and shrugged, his meaning was self-evident.

Yu Qian stared blankly at Zhu Zhanluo in front of him.

In fact, Zhu Zhanhe was very smart, smarter than Zhu Zhantan, but like Zhu Zhanhe's original situation, he was not the eldest son.

Even if Zhu Zhanhe is not counted, because the situation Zhu Zhanhe faced was that he was better than Zhu Zhanji, but Zhu Zhanhe could not be better than Zhu Zhanhe.

However, there is another Zhu Zhantan standing in front of Zhu Zhanluo.

Although Zhu Zhanhe looked like he didn't understand anything when he first entered Beijing, Zhu Zhanhe was also confused when he asked him questions, but in fact it was just because of his lack of experience.

However, fortunately, the place Zhu Zhanhe conquered was large enough for the brothers to share.

"What are you looking at?" After figuring it out, Yu Qian turned his head and looked in the direction that Zhu Zhanluo had been looking just now.

He didn't pay much attention to it before, but now he was more focused. Only then did Yu Qian hear that the people not far away were talking about Zhu Zhanhe and Zhu Zhanji.

"It's just a bunch of boring people." Zhu Zhandong smiled slightly and picked up his teacup again.

In fact, it was nothing, except that today was the death anniversary of Emperor Taizong, but as the emperor, Zhu Zhanji did not go to Changling to worship, and he did not even take a step outside the palace gate.

Under this situation, under this circumstance, these people naturally started "talking loudly".

Some people say that Zhu Zhanji is obsessed with power, but now he has lost to his cousin, and has never recovered since then. It is even said that Zhu Zhanji was originally bad. After all, he has not passed the filial piety of Emperor Taizong, and his father also Not long after his death, he put on the dragon robe and ascended the throne.

Some people also say that all this is Zhu Zhanhe's fault, because now Shuntian and even the entire Ming Dynasty are under Zhu Zhanhe's control. Zhu Zhanji cannot go to Changling to worship because he is under house arrest.

To put it bluntly, this kind of debate is just a casual chat between ordinary people in the city after dinner. Some people always feel that they are standing on the head of the fog and see everything clearly through the fog, but in fact it is only they who think so.

"Your Highness, don't pay attention to them." Yu Qian listened for a while and explained to Zhu Zhanhe.

"These people are just idle. If we really want them to deal with these things, they can't do anything."

"I know." Zhu Zhanhe nodded, his expression unchanged.

"Brother once said that the world is so big and there are so many people in the world, but there is always a group of people who are useless but boring, but they find fault with others all day long."

"Even if they find out in the end that they were wrong, they would rather lose you than admit or even face up to what they did or said to you."

"Big brother said that there are three realms in life. The first realm is for children, who see mountains as mountains and water as water. The second realm is us and these people, who see mountains as not mountains and water as not water."

"What about the third one?" Yu Qian was stunned for a moment. Seeing that Zhu Zhanluo had no intention of continuing, he hurriedly asked.

"My elder brother said that the third state is to look at mountains or mountains, or water or water, but I don't understand. He also bluntly said that he has not reached that point."

Yu Qian was silent when he heard this.

Of these three realms, he understood the first one. To put it bluntly, he only looked at people and things based on their superficial appearance, so he described it as a child.

The second realm is about adults. No matter who or what they see, what they think about is not what they see, but the interests behind these people and things and how much benefit they can bring to themselves.

As for the third type...he doesn't understand either.

"Don't think about it." Zhu Zhanluo suddenly put down his teacup and stood up.

"The emperor's chariot has left the palace, and it's time for us to make preparations."

Yu Qian looked at Zhu Zhanhe blankly, and then at the guards beside Zhu Zhanhe.

He didn't realize when the guard came, but he still stood up and followed Zhu Zhanhe away.

As a descendant of the Zhu family and a descendant of the King of Yan, he will definitely go to worship Zhu Di on the anniversary of his death.

It doesn't matter whether others go to worship Zhu Zhanhe or not, but King Wu's group will definitely go to worship him today.

Zhu Zhanhe doesn't need to care about other people's opinions, because although he is standing behind the scenes now, everyone knows that the real person in charge of Daming is him, so there is no difference.

But others can't.

For people like Zhu Zhanluo, they could only go after Zhu Zhanji, the current emperor, went to pay homage.

However, on this anniversary of the death of Emperor Taizong, there is a place that is not very quiet, and this place is a little special.

Yingtian Mansion, Yingtian Palace.

As the former capital of the country, even after the capital was moved, it was still prosperous. It was just not as prosperous as before, but it was definitely the most prosperous besides Shuntian.

When moving the capital, Emperor Taizong deliberately retained the six ministries and other institutions of Yingtian Mansion. Zhu Gaosui knew that this was a two-pronged preparation.

The first is to prevent any accidents in Shuntian. The royal family can move here directly and everything can be used directly.

The second is to prevent Wu Wang's lineage.

Kneeling in front of the old man's tomb, Zhu Gaosui looked straight at the old man's tomb, with no luster in his eyes.

At the beginning, after he, like his father, raised an army under the banner of "Fengtian to pacify the difficulties and clear the emperor's side" but failed, he was first taken to Shuntian Mansion and imprisoned in the imperial prison, where he accepted the words of his eldest nephew insult.

After that, the news that Zhu Zhanhe was going back to Beijing spread throughout Daming, and he was also transferred here by Zhu Zhanji.

Although he lived in the former imperial palace, the former imperial palace is now a huge prison where Zhu Gaosui is imprisoned.

Originally, after learning that his eldest nephew was defeated by his second nephew, Zhu Gaosui was excited for a while, thinking that he finally had a chance.

Although he doesn't think he can beat the stronger second nephew without being able to beat the eldest nephew, he can always run.

Where there is life, there is hope.

As long as people are still there, there is still a chance.

But what he didn't expect was that after getting the news of his elder nephew's failure, what he ushered in was not a loose guard, but a specially strengthened guard by his elder nephew before his failure.

Until three months ago, at the beginning of the year, all the guards in the Yingtian Palace were suddenly replaced.

At that time, Zhu Gaosui knew that everything was over.

"Ahem..." There were coughs, but Zhu Gaosui seemed not to hear them.

"Third uncle, you came quite early..."

Zhu Zhantan walked in while coughing.

"Haha, don't talk about me. If you weren't waiting for me, I would have worshiped you long ago, right?"

Zhu Gaosui turned to look at his nephew, whom he had always regarded as a sick man, with a cold expression on his face.

"You too have no backbone at all. Zhan He even took Zhan Heng to Shuntian. The meaning behind it is self-evident, but you didn't react at all."

"Haha, Third Uncle, there is no need to say anything else, because our Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, who is also my cousin, sent someone here before this."

Zhu Zhantan walked to Zhu Gaosui's side minding his own business, twisted three incense sticks, lit them on the candle, and started to offer the incense respectfully.

"Don't you just want to take advantage of the 'unfair' treatment I received and let me be used by you? But you may not know that when I was in Yunnan, my eldest brother was running around for my illness."

"Whether he was conquering Japan in the east or conquering Cochin and Siam in the south, even after he destroyed the Timur Empire, he immediately moved away the private treasury of the Timur Empire royal family and brought all the medicine back to Xiang. The state capital, treat me.”

"The same goes for Zhanhuang. This year, my eldest brother sent people to escort the family members of the prisoners to Nuergandusi. Zhanluo found his eldest brother immediately and said that Nuergandusi has a lot of medicinal materials and is also a rich producer of deer antlers and deer blood. , ask someone to bring more for me."

"It's a pity that I was born with poor health. Although conditioning is useful, it is only useful and cannot cure it."

"So, don't bother, otherwise you will just be like your cousin and expose every last little trick."

"However, it doesn't matter. Anyway, the backup plan you left has been discovered in Shenyang Mansion."

……

Zhu Gaosui let out a long sigh when he heard the words.

After knowing that the last insurance method he had left had been discovered by Zhu Zhanhe, Zhu Gaosui was not disappointed or angry, as if everything was natural.

It is true that Zhu Gaosui knew Zhu Zhanhe's nephew relatively well. After all, Zhu Gaosui had never stopped investigating Zhu Zhanhe since Zhu Zhanhe became famous in the seventh year of Yongle.

"so what……"

After a long silence, Zhu Gaosui suddenly spoke, his tone full of indifference, as if he had accepted everything.

"What are you going to do with me, my third uncle?"

"What should I do? That's not something my nephew can decide. My eldest brother also said he wouldn't decide, but..."

Listening to Zhu Zhantan's words, Zhu Gaosui's eyes glowed with light.

In fact, no one is willing to accept fate, let alone the oppression of others, and the same goes for Zhu Gaosui.

At this point, it was not only the light in Zhu Zhantan's eyes after hearing what he said, but it could also be heard from what he just said.

Using words like "I am my third uncle" is purely to use ethics and morality to pressure people, hoping to get some opportunities.

"However, don't be too happy too early. Brother asked me to bring you a message."

Zhu Gaosui hadn't been happy for long before Zhu Zhantan spoke again and poured cold water on him.

"Brother said that he knew all the little tricks you did behind your back and has never forgotten it."

"Li Bao is fine. That's because eldest brother still needs him. He needs him to disrupt North Korea and let North Korea continue to be the most obedient dog in the Ming Dynasty. It's not because eldest brother has forgotten what he did in the past."

"Similarly, the only reason why you are fine is because the eldest brother could not make the decision at that time, let alone take action against you, an elder, so it has been delayed until now."

"But now, the eldest brother can make the decision, and he can spare time."

"Brother once said that living is painful, but death is the real relief."

"Sometimes, life is not necessarily a good thing."

 The big chapter is enough to cover the debt I owed yesterday.
