Daming: If I find a great-grandson, I will teach an emperor through the ages

Chapter 39 Missing Cao Wei

The two adjusted Cao Wei's position so that he looked like he was lying down and asleep.

"Okay, go and call someone over," Zhu Di said.

Dao Yan responded, and then left quickly.

Zhu Di picked up the fishing rod and caught the fish safely.

Sometimes people pass by here and see one person fishing and one person lying on the side sleeping soundly, but they don't care.

Zhu Di held the fishing rod in his hand and stared at the gurgling stream, thinking constantly in his heart.

The current situation is very clear. Zhu Yuanzhang will definitely wait for Cao Ying to return to the palace and make him the crown prince.

At that time, Cao Ying's identity will be known to the world, and neither Zhu Yunqi nor Zhu Di will have a bright future.

If Zhu Di wants to fight for the throne in this situation, he can only take another path, people's support!
During the Sui Dynasty,

Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty Yang Jian once made his eldest son Yang Yong the crown prince, but his second son Yang Guang relied on his proud military exploits and accumulated reputation among the people to successfully overthrow Yang Yong and asked Yang Jian to depose the crown prince Yang Yong and establish a separate prince. Yang Guang was crown prince.

Now Zhu Di is going to take such a path. He will continue to fight for the north and south of the Ming Dynasty and make contributions. When his reputation is big enough and he becomes popular among the people, there may be a chance of a turning point!
Of course, the reason why Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty abolished Yang Yong's crown prince had a lot to do with Yang Yong's lack of virtue and incompetence.

And Zhu Xiongying is definitely not that incompetent person. Not to mention the education he received in the palace when he was young, he was able to pass the provincial examination by self-study alone. This is enough to show that Cao Ying is very good.

This also means that the path Zhu Di has chosen will be extremely difficult!
But Zhu Di is not Yang Guang. He believes that Yang Guang, who once led to the death of the second generation of the Sui Dynasty, is not qualified to compare with him, and his ability is definitely not comparable to Yang Guang!
What's more, Zhu Di has Dao Yan beside him to advise him... This road may not be completely unworkable!
And to take this path, Zhu Di needs a lot of talents!Especially a talent like Cao Wei!It can make him even more powerful!

So Cao Wei must be taken away!
But Zhu Yuanzhang also knew about Cao Wei, and he also knew that Cao Wei was a rare and strange person, so he definitely wanted to hold Cao Wei firmly in his hands.

Zhu Di can only take a gamble!
He planned to kill first and then report, and took Cao Wei back to Peiping overnight. After arriving in Peiping, he would write a letter to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Beiping was originally a fortress, and it was very important. In order to better defend the frontier for Ming Dynasty and expand the territory, Zhu Di needed to keep Cao Wei by his side.

Anyway, Cao Wei is just an extremely talented farmer, and Zhu Di is Zhu Yuanzhang's most accomplished son besides Zhu Biao.

It is not difficult to distinguish which one is close and which one is far away, which one is important and which one is light.

Zhu Yuanzhang should agree to his request, right?

Zhu Di blocked Zhu Yuanzhang and stopped pursuing the matter because of the relationship between father and son.

What to do next?

Desperately expelling the Tartars?
It seems that only in this way can he quickly accumulate reputation!

The people of the Central Plains have always had a blood feud with the foreign tribes from other countries!If Zhu Di destroys all those foreign youths, his reputation will be unparalleled for a while!
But to do this, it is undoubtedly extremely difficult!

It took Daming more than 20 years just for Bei Yuan who was dead but not stiff.

So far, there are still Beiyuan remnants fleeing in Mobei...

It can only be said that Zhu Di's path to the throne is destined to not be easy and simple!
Even if the right opportunity does not come, I am afraid that there will be no hope of sitting on the dragon throne in my life.

But opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared, and Zhu Di is the kind of person who makes plans in advance.

Similarly, Zhu Di is destined to be a person who will not be content with being ordinary. Back then, his father was able to conquer the Ming Dynasty from scratch, and the difficulty was unimaginable for ordinary people!Why is he afraid of a little suffering? !

This path was chosen by himself, no matter whether he succeeds or fails, he has no regrets!
After waiting for more than a quarter of an hour, Dao Yan had already brought people back in a carriage.

The two people driving the carriage moved extremely swiftly, and immediately lifted the unconscious Cao Wei into the carriage.

Dao Yan came to Zhu Di's side, "Your Highness, it's time to go."

Zhu Di looked at the fishing rod in his hand and sighed.

His luck was really bad, he hadn't caught a fish for so long.

Putting down the fishing rod, Zhu Di stood up and got into the carriage with Dao Yan.

The carriage was very spacious. Even with Cao Wei lying sideways and Zhu Di and Xu Daoyan sitting in it, it didn't seem crowded at all.

"Go back to Peiping."

Zhu Di gave an order, the driver waved the reins, and the carriage galloped away.

……

Time passed minute by minute.

Cao Ying gradually waited until it got dark, but Cao Wei didn't come home.

In the past, Cao Wei would go home to cook before You hour, but now it is Xu hour.

Seeing the night getting darker and darker, Cao Ying began to worry anxiously.

In the past 12 years, Cao Wei has never come back so late!

Until the whole sky turned completely dark, Cao Ying finally decided not to wait any longer!
He rushed out of the house and started looking for Cao Wei everywhere.

The only places Cao Wei would go were the fields, the tavern at the head of the village, and the creek to the north of the village.

Cao Wei likes fishing and Cao Ying knows it, but fishing can't be done without going home for dinner at this time.

So Cao Ying hurried to the tavern at the head of the village, but after some inquiries, she was told that Cao Wei was not here.

Then Cao Ying ran to the field and turned around the seven acres of his family's field, but still did not find Cao Wei.

At this time, Cao Ying was already sweating, half of it was running, and half of it was because of her eagerness.

Without any delay,

Cao Ying turned around and rushed towards the creek to the north.

When we arrived at the creek, there was still no one!
Cao Ying was anxious, where did her father go?
suddenly,

Following the faint moonlight, Cao Ying saw something in the grass by the stream.

He stepped forward and took a closer look. It was Cao Wei's fishing rod made of bamboo. There was a bamboo basket next to the fishing rod, and the two fish in it had stopped moving!

Cao Wei's fishing rod is stored at home all year round, and Cao Ying is very familiar with it!
Now the fishing rod is here, where is the father?

Cao Ying looked around and shouted loudly:
"Father."

"Father."

"Father."

……

As soon as he moved his footsteps, he felt something kicked, so he looked down...

At this time, the moon passed through the clouds, casting bright moonlight, and the vision became much brighter.

However, Cao Ying's heart suddenly sank to the bottom!
He saw that the stone under his feet was clearly stained with blood!
Cao Ying suddenly felt cold all over, like falling into an ice cellar!
All kinds of signs are telling him that Cao Wei has encountered an accident!
but why?
Cao Wei is just a peaceful farmer and has never offended anyone.

Moreover, Cao Ying knew his father's skill, even if there were dozens of ordinary people, there was nothing he could do about it!
However, it is useless to think so much now. The most important thing is to find Cao Wei, no matter life or death!
But how can Cao Ying find it alone?

Forced himself to calm down, Cao Ying finally thought of Zhu Yuanzhang.

Yes, Grandpa Huang!
He will definitely find his father...
