Chapter 116 Zhu Yuanzhang’s suspicion?

It cannot be said that Zhu Yuanzhang was suspicious, mainly because Zhu Yu had left Yingtian for less than a year, not even half a year.

From August to mid-November, or to the end of November, there are only three months in total.

But Zhu Zhen suddenly changed from the little transparent prince who didn't even dare to raise his head when he saw Zhu Yuanzhang to killing everyone on the battlefield in Yunnan, and even dared to lead 15 people to fight with Silun's fifty-odd soldiers. A decisive battle involving tens of thousands of people?

This is why Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know that Zhu Chun had grown more than ten centimeters overnight and even turned into a muscular man.

Otherwise, Zhu Yuanzhang would really think that Zhu Zhen was a monster.

Therefore, when Zhu Biao continued to read what was recorded in Mu Ying's memorial about Zhu Chu conquering the hearts of 20 native people, he always felt that something was wrong.

Especially at the end, Mu Ying carefully asked Zhu Yuanzhang that she wanted to completely hand over Yunnan to King Min, and then take the whole family back to Yingtian, and even wanted to return to Fengyang.

Zhu Yuanzhang sneered directly: "Is that kid Mu Ying also retreating bravely? Or is Zhu Zhen already intolerable in his eyes?"

Zhu Biao and Xu Da were both stunned.

Zhu Yuanzhang's attitude changed a bit too much, because the more he thought about it, the more something was wrong.

How long has Zhu Ming been holding back?When did you start running away from yourself?
What does he want to do?

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly became a bit like when he questioned Zhu Wenzheng, and wanted to ask Zhu Ming face to face what he wanted to do.

"Father, weren't you very happy before? Moreover, the eighteenth brother won a great victory after all, and even Mu Ying praised him. What's wrong with you?" Zhu Biao asked in confusion.

Zhu Biao dared to ask Zhu Yuanzhang bluntly, but he did not notice that Xu Da behind him had lowered his head and cold sweat began to appear on his forehead.

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed silently. If possible, he certainly did not want to cause estrangement between father and son.

But looking at the most benevolent and righteous eldest son in front of me, I couldn't help but ask: "Biao'er, what do you think of your eighteenth brother?"

"Eighteenth brother is very good," Zhu Biao said without thinking: "When he left Yingtian, Erchen personally went to see him off. At that time, eighteenth brother was still holding Erchen's hand, full of reluctance. , and told me to take good care of my health."

At that time, Zhu Zhen really thought that as long as he went to Yunnan and had his own piece of ground, it would be good to be an idle Xiaoyao King.

As long as Zhu Biao can live a few more years, as long as Zhu Biao ascends the throne, Zhu Zhen will have nothing to say to this eldest brother.

The problem is that if it is Zhu Yunzhen, then he will have to cut down the vassal as soon as he comes to power, including Zhu Di.

As a modern time traveler, how could Zhu Zhen put his wealth and life on the kindness of others?

That must be a rebellion.

Therefore, when Zhu Chu left Yingtian, and Zhu Biao was the only one seeing him off at that time, even Zhu Chu's own mother, Concubine Zhou, and his brother Zhu Song, who was a compatriot from the same mother, did not show up.

So Zhu Biao was really moved by Zhu Biao and hoped that the eldest brother, the prince, could live a few more years.

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, his expression finally relaxed a lot, and he asked: "Really?"

Zhu Biao said with some laughter and tears: "Father, why should I lie? Lao 18 is still young, and he has been a vassal since he was a child. He was not welcomed in the palace. Speaking of which, even my eldest brother is a little bit less than him. Take care of him. Alas, it is understandable that he would be timid. But after all, he is your child, my father. He fought a great victory at a young age, and he has the same bravery as you did back then."

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard his favorite eldest son say this, he couldn't help but feel comforted. Although he didn't say "my tiger son", he could still see that he was less murderous.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction: "He did a good job indeed. Biao'er, go make some preparations and give him something as a reward before the end of the year. By the way, this brat didn't even come to follow him when he went to join the feudal clan. Let's say goodbye and greetings. We are not used to his bad habits. We are not prepared to greet the maids, eunuchs and cooks. If you write to him and ask him, don't say it's me, just ask him what he needs as you. You don’t need this. After all, he is still a prince."

Zhu Biao looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with a black line.

No wonder Zhu Biao always felt that something was missing from his eighteenth brother. It turned out that as the prince, Zhu Zhen could not even gather the accompanying team. Is there really only one guard to protect him?
Is this escorting the prince to join the feudal clan, or is he escorting the prisoner to exile?
"Father, this, this, this," Zhu Biao wanted to say something.

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes widened: "What? He is going on a long journey. If he doesn't come to greet me, why should we consider it for him?"

Zhu Biao suddenly couldn't laugh or cry, and said: "The third brother whipped the cook, and you scolded him. You also asked the third brother, the cook, to be in charge of the food. If you punish him at will, you may be poisoned. Moreover, you arranged for each prince to have an entourage and a cook before he came to the vassal. , why are you angry with your eighteenth brother?"

Zhu Biao wanted to say, "You are only [-] when you are [-] years old. Why are you acting like an old child?"

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hands to drive him away angrily: "Gungungun, you came to teach us a lesson before you became emperor? Will you do it again in the future?"

Zhu Biao immediately did not dare to say any more and bowed back.Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Biao's retreating figure with some confusion, as if something was wrong.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang did not take it seriously, but looked at Xu Da with a rather solemn expression.

At this time, only Zhu Yuanzhang and Xu Da were left here. Xu Da had something to say and could speak. He lowered his head and asked, "Your Majesty, what are you worried about?"

"What am I worried about? Look at these." Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly took out a stack of letters and threw it on the table in front of him, and then said to Xu Da: "Why are you standing so far away? There are no outsiders now, how can we still eat you?" ? Come and sit together. If you have free time in the evening, we can have a few drinks. After all, that kid didn’t embarrass us, did he? "

Xu Da then walked up to Zhu Yuanzhang, but he didn't dare to sit down, but just put a little edge in front of his buttocks.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care about his caution and asked Xu Da to pick up the letters again.

Xu Da suddenly understood that Zhu Yuanzhang had already placed an informant around Zhu Chu, and these were obviously the secrets sent to him.

Opening a letter casually, Xu Da read the signature first, which was "Commander Wang Fu".

Then Xu Da looked at the content and found that it recorded that Zhu Chu created something called soap in Yunnan, which could replace saponin.

"This is a good thing. It can benefit the people." Xu Da stroked his beard and didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

Zhu Yuanzhang sneered: "He wants to amass money."

Xu Da opened his mouth wide and stopped talking.

Zhu Yuanzhang brought another letter to Xu Da and pointed to the corner of the room, where there was a green object that looked like a huge crystal.

Xu Da didn't understand it at first, but he was dumbfounded after reading the contents of the letter.

Co-author Wang Fu told the truth about Zhu Yu's contribution to the glass. Zhu Yuanzhang was still very new at the beginning, but this guy actually invented something called glass. It was not bad, and he still wanted to give me a piece.

I never expected that this strange-looking piece of glass would turn out to be a defective product.

Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry that he blew his beard and stared, then picked up a letter and threw it to Xu Da.

But this time it was a formal memorial.

When Xu Da opened it, he suddenly saw a black line, because the first line on it was the crooked words that read, "Father, my son and minister are suffering."

Zhu Yuanzhang asked with a sneer: "This man is very scheming, and is he treating me like a fool? Just wait, I will force him to come back during the Chinese New Year, and then whip him a few times."

It seems that Zhu Yuanzhang bears grudges, and he bears grudges against his own son.

Mainly because Zhu Ming didn't expect the old man to be so vengeful, and it was also because his performance this time was too outstanding.

If there had not been this battle, or if Zhu Zhen was hiding in Dali City and would not even participate in this battle, Zhu Yuanzhang would not have such a big reaction.

Even though it had been some time since Zhu Yuanzhang had received this piece of glass and Wang Fu's secret documents, he didn't seem to want to reprimand Zhu Yu.

In Zhu Yuanzhang's view, these were all trivial matters, not to mention that it was normal for Zhu Zhen to be playful and playful when he was young.

However, as Zhu Chu made extraordinary achievements, these things were different.

Even Muying was convinced by Zhu Chu and even wanted to make Zhu Chu the real king of Yunnan.

Yunnan is not comparable to Yanjing or Shuntian. Shuntian is just a city. Zhu Di said it was the king of Yan, but in fact it was only the size of a city.

But as an eighteenth-year-old, Zhu Chu wants to control a place in Yunnan that even the imperial court cannot underestimate?
If Zhu Ming had been doing this deliberately and with scheming, this kid would be terrible, not to mention he is only 12 years old.

Zhu Yuanzhang then began to prepare to find out where these problems lay.

Of course, Zhu Ming didn't know that his father was already eyeing his butt and wanted to give him a slap to relieve his anger.

So what is Zhu Zhen doing at this time?
