Daming Greedy Wolf Star

Chapter 349 The Big Joke

The next day, early in the morning.

Zhu Gaoxu went to the morning court. There was almost nothing going on in today's morning court. There was only the matter of Chen Mao and Zheng Heng going to Japan, which can be said to be a good thing.

After all, Japan's silver mines and gold mines can still provide Ming Dynasty with huge wealth so far.

Moreover, the current lineage of King Wu can be said to have returned to the peak when they were still in Yingtian, and all generals have already stood in line.

Don't think that controlling the Ming Dynasty means controlling everything. If you want to sort out all the officials and forces, the King of Wu still has a long way to go.

But even in such a good situation, Zhu Gaoxu, who had gone to the morning court, had a...sad look on his face.

Returning to Renshou Palace, Zhu Gaoxu saw that his wife was busy with her daughter-in-law, talking about Crown Princess Wu and Princess Wu, which were actually matters that the Crown Princess and even the Queen needed to pay attention to. Zhu Gaoxu didn't know what to say. What.

It seems that everyone in the world has already acquiesced, acquiesced that King Wu's lineage will successfully ascend to that position like the original King Yan, acquiesced that Zhu Zhanhe will become the next emperor, and at the worst, he will be the next emperor.

But actually?
It's really a big joke. Countless people worked hard for it, risking their lives and wealth, and even the position of the entire nine tribes. However, in the King of Wu's lineage, they have become a place of blame.

Are we to say that people from King Wu’s lineage who are qualified to sit in that position have no interest in that position?
In fact, no, in fact, they all have interests, but everyone's interests are different.

For Zhu Gaoxu, no matter what the result is, whether it is the position of prince or the throne, it is a way for him to prove himself to the old man. He just wants to prove that he is no worse than the boss.

But now, the old man is gone, the boss is gone, and the only third child is still assigned. Now he no longer knows what he is fighting for.

If he had to give him a goal, he could only say that he was fighting for his sons, and fighting for his sons not to be like the vassal kings who were cut off by Jianwen back then.

And under Zhu Gaoxu, it was naturally Zhu Zhanhe.

Zhu Zhanhe is actually an outlier, an outlier who is incompatible with this era. His thoughts, behaviors and even views on reality are different from this era.

Regarding the throne, he had already thought clearly about the so-called "mandated by heaven, and will live forever". It would be nice to experience the feeling of ruling the world. As for being the emperor forever...

Too tiring and with the risk of early death, it’s not worth it.

Below Zhu Zhanhe, there is Zhu Zhanqi, the second child of King Wu's lineage.

In fact, Zhu Zhanqi had nothing to say. He had never thought so much because he was a concubine, and if it weren't for Zhu Zhanhe, he would still be entangled in hatred.

Now, with the help of his elder brother, he has solved the knot in his heart. He is afraid that he will still have a fiefdom in the future. Coupled with the barrier of his bastard status, he is not satisfied with anything now.

Not to mention Zhu Zhantan, who is under Zhu Zhanqi, is in poor health...

As for the last Zhu Zhanluo, he also expressed his thoughts last night...

Thinking of this, Zhu Gaoxu couldn't help but shake his head and smile, his smile full of self-deprecation.

The throne that everyone is so eager for has really become a place of blame in my own family...

"I'm going out." Zhu Gaoxu stood up, said to his wife and daughter-in-law next to him, and left Renshou Palace.

Princess Wu glanced in the direction of her husband, with a worried look in her eyes, but she didn't say anything.

After all, he is the person next to him. It can be said that if there is any abnormality, even if it is just a move or even an abnormal tone, he can detect it.

However, in this era, some things belong to men alone, and women... are not allowed to interfere.

Hu Shanshu looked at her mother-in-law thoughtfully, as if she thought of something, but said nothing.

Otherwise, the most important thing for a person is talent rather than hard work. For some things, people without talent may not feel anything when they see Princess Wu's reaction, but Hu Shanshu is different.

One reaction was enough for her to learn.

……

Kunning Palace.

Zhu Gaoxu stood in the Danqi outside Kunning Palace, raising his head slightly and looking at the palace that represented the queen.

There are some things that cannot be avoided, he must say them, and as long as he says them, it will naturally not be possible to avoid his sister-in-law.

But having said that, it is already the first year of Xuande, and it seems inappropriate for my sister-in-law to still live in Kunning Palace...

Someone must have seen Zhu Gaoxu a long time ago and went to inform Mrs. Zhang. Before Zhu Gaoxu could go up the steps at the entrance of Kunning Palace, Mrs. Zhang walked out.

The two looked at each other, but no one spoke.

Inside Kunning Palace.

Mrs. Zhang was quite experienced. After the palace maid served tea, she waved everyone away, leaving enough space for Zhu Gaoxu.

"Sister-in-law..."

……

Ying Tianfu.

In this era, shipping is still relatively fast. If we take the land route, it will take three to five months to reach Yingtian Mansion. If we want to go to Xiangzhou Mansion, it will take a year and a half.

But if you take the waterway, you can get to Yingtian Mansion in less than ten days. Even if you go to Xiangzhou Mansion, it only takes about 20 days.

Looking at the familiar Han Palace, Zhu Zhanhe had mixed feelings for a moment.

When was the last time I came here...?

He forgot too.

However, he still remembered that he went to Beijing once, it was the New Year's Eve, and it was for the New Year's Eve dinner, and he was standing in front of the Han Palace, when the old man came.

Zhu Zhanhe still vaguely remembered that he said some very silly words at the time, such as killing himself and so on, but he had to say that it still made sense in retrospect.

Although he was a bit of a middle-schooler, now that he thought about it, Zhu Zhanhe felt that it was quite in line with the way he had been along the way, because he had really changed.

In the past, all he could think about was showing off, and all he could think about was living his life as a stable prince in the Ming Dynasty, enjoying all the things he could not enjoy in his previous life.

Open your mouth and clothes to stretch out your hands, roll among all kinds of people with milky white snow and big and slender legs, and live what people call a life of debauchery.

But what now?He seemed to be always on the road, always fighting, always...killing people.

He once thought about following Huo Qubing and going to Langjuxu Mountain to seal the sky, go to Mount Fuji to seal the sky, go to the Alps to seal the sky...

But at that time, he just thought about it and didn't really want to do it. But looking at it now, it seems that he really wants to do it.

There seems to be no need for Lang to live in Xushan, because as long as he wants to, he can find a reason to go.

He had already been to Mount Fuji, and the remaining mountain range, the Alps, seemed to be close at hand.

"His Royal Highness." Zhu Ling's voice shattered Zhu Zhanhe's imagination and brought him back to his senses.

"Let's go." Zhu Zhanhe took one last look at the former Han Prince's Mansion, then turned and left.

Although it is still spotless and looks like it did when the family left it, the house has actually lost its popularity.

　Alas, I haven't been in the right state of mind recently, and I feel like everything I write is a piece of shit...

The main reason is that someone at home is in the hospital and travels between places every day. First, I don’t have time, and secondly, I am really tired, so I need to take a breather...
