Chapter 661: Queen Ma's Sudden Backstab
Chapter 661: Queen Ma's Sudden Backstab

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Empress Ma with horror, who had a calm expression on her face.

It was as if he was meeting this woman for the first time.

He simply couldn't believe that these were the words spoken by his own queen.

But Queen Ma not only said it, but also said it with a calm look on her face.

Even when Zhu Yuanzhang looked over, Empress Ma nodded calmly.

Obviously, what she just said was what she really meant.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Queen Ma in horror, wanting to ask something, but found that he couldn't ask anything.

In the end, he could only stare at Empress Ma in a daze for a long time before he walked out of the Kunning Palace in dejection and anger.

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't understand why Empress Ma was supporting him in disguise, and he couldn't understand why Empress Ma was suddenly so determined on this matter.

The reason is actually very simple.

It's worthless to say it out.

Because the angle is different.

For Zhu Yuanzhang, all these vassal kings were his sons and descendants of the Zhu family.

At the same time, he was also the right-hand man he prepared for Zhu Biao.

Now Zhu Biao wants to reduce the power of the princes and also wants to change the treatment of the royal family. Doesn’t that mean that the Zhu family will kill each other?

That naturally means that Zhu Biao, the next generation head of the family, did not do a good job!
But in the eyes of Empress Ma, this matter looked different.

Perhaps it was because of Empress Ma's virtuous behavior in the past that Zhu Yuanzhang had forgotten a fact.

That is to say, Empress Ma is indeed the legitimate mother and mistress of the Zhu family.

In the past, Queen Ma also fulfilled this responsibility very well.

But what Zhu Yuanzhang should not forget is that Empress Ma was only the biological mother of a few people including Zhu Biao.

In Empress Ma's view, the others were just children born to concubines.

To put it bluntly, he is a bastard.

As the mistress, she does nothing wrong in taking care of the children on a daily basis.

After all, the Zhu family is large and powerful, and no matter how it is divided, it will not affect the family business being passed on to her son Zhu Biao.

But what Zhu Biao said today completely laid the matter bare.

Those royal family members and illegitimate sons were not only not helpers to Zhu Biao, but were actually insects sucking his blood.

Even in the near future, these people will have to bear heavy burdens in the future and eventually the country will be destroyed!
Is this still available?

For a mother, there is no difference between a bastard's son and a relative's child!
It may even be slightly worse.

As a result, the current situation is that these illegitimate sons are actually affecting the inheritance of the family business by his most valued eldest son. What else is there to say?

Do you really think that because Empress Ma looks kind and benevolent on weekdays, she has no ability to do anything?
To put it bluntly, Zhu Yuanzhang had beaten eunuchs to death many times in the palace.

But in fact, Queen Ma was no less capable than him in this respect.

To be honest, in terms of the number of people, Empress Ma actually had more palace maids and eunuchs beaten to death because she had to manage the harem every day.

For a woman who has experienced war and managed a harem, as long as you have not let her down.

Then she is the most virtuous queen in the world.

But if you touch something that you shouldn't touch, you may even cause her son to lose the opportunity to inherit the family business.

Then you should know what a daughter of a general is.

Queen Ma sat upright on the bed, thinking for a moment with a gloomy look on her face, then turned around and walked to the desk, picked up a pen and wrote two letters herself.

Then, she took out the seal of the queen, the head of the six palaces, from the small box beside her, dipped it in ink, and stamped it on the palace with a clang.

She looked at the two letters in front of her with satisfaction, put them into the envelopes with her own hands, and then spoke to the eunuch beside her.

"Arrange someone to send it to the second and third brothers!"

"Just say that I have an urgent decree and ask them to return quickly!"

"Yes!" When they heard Empress Ma addressing herself as "this palace", these eunuchs, who were already timid, had no right to say anything more. They had to agree immediately.

Of course, not long after the letter came out, it fell into Zhu Yuanzhang's hands.

Sitting next to the light, looking at the two letters in his hands, Zhu Yuanzhang's face looked particularly ugly.

"Son, come back quickly. Your father wants his illegitimate son to seize the family business. Come and help mother and brother!"

The two letters were exactly the same, with just these few words.

But it was these few words that made Zhu Yuanzhang's face look particularly ugly.

This……

It’s totally unreasonable!
Why did he let his illegitimate son seize the family business?

But he had so much to say but couldn't bring himself to curse.

He then stuffed the letter into an envelope and handed it directly to the eunuch beside him.

"Hurry up and send it to the second and third brothers!"

"Here!"

The eunuch who received the letter put it into his arms politely, bowed, and then walked out of the Jinshen Hall with cold sweat on his forehead.

God knows how terrified he was when he was taken to Jinshen Hall to face the emperor as soon as he walked out of Kunning Palace and was asked to hand over two letters.

There are big guys on both sides, and either side can decide his life or death with a single word.

And he was obviously just a little eunuch who followed orders.

But in the end he acted like a very important person.

Fortunately, His Majesty did not continue to get angry.

If His Majesty really gets angry and destroys or withholds the letter, his life will be over.

Bitter!

Not to mention the eunuch who walked out, let's just talk about Zhu Yuanzhang who was sitting there with a grim look on his face. He felt that he was in a dilemma.

At this time, he finally understood why Queen Ma was not on his side.

Because, to Empress Ma, these other princes and royal family members were just illegitimate sons.

Some people are not even illegitimate sons, but can barely be considered relatives.

How could Empress Ma allow such people to ruin her family's good deeds?

Bastard!
The problem that Zhu Yuanzhang had not realized before was completely raised by this letter.

It was at this time that he truly realized that Queen Ma was not just a queen, she was also a mother.

As a mother, it is only natural to consider your children!

And what about Biaoer?

As the current Crown Prince of Ming Dynasty and the future Emperor of Ming Dynasty, what does he care about?
Oh, he cares about the world.

He usually dotes on his younger brothers. As an eldest brother, there is absolutely nothing to say about that.

But what if he becomes the crown prince, or even the emperor in the future?

Then these brothers can only deal with him as vassal kings!

How much family affection will be left by then?
If this is the case with this generation, what about the next generation?

By the time he arrived in Xiongying, not to mention that he was not familiar with those uncles to begin with, how much affection could he have for those uncles' children?

They are just cousins ​​with the same surname, how deep can their relationship be?
How could they be willing to sacrifice the Ming Dynasty's assets for these people?

Ugh……

Understood!
Got it all!

Even though Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know anything about statistics, management, etc. at this moment, he figured things out from the perspective of human character.

To put it bluntly, they are still fighting for the family property!
