Daming: Refining zombies at the beginning, Lao Zhu was shocked

Chapter 87 87: Zhu Biao: Will Lao Jiu become an immortal?
  It's no wonder Zhu Biao thinks so, mainly because Zhu Yuanzhang just described Lao Jiu's abilities too exaggeratedly!

He didn't even believe that such a capable Lao Jiu would be willing to put his head in Zhu Yunwen's hands!

It seems that Lao Jiu came to Yingtian because of his biological mother, Concubine Zhou, but this is simply untenable!
  After all, in addition to Concubine Zhou, he also has a wife and children. Even if it is for his own children, he cannot really go into danger alone like this!
  Because Lao Jiu is dead, even if he is imprisoned by Zhu Yunwen, it will only be a matter of time before Hanzhong falls into Zhu Yunwen's hands!

With Lao Jiu's character and his mind, he would definitely do more than just do things like this at the expense of the other!

He felt that there must be a more important purpose for Lao Jiu to come to Yingtian, and there must be a reason why he had to come!

What could be the reason?
  Apart from rebellion, apart from wanting Zhu Yunwen's position, he couldn't think of any other answer!
  "Yes, Lao Jiu did rebel!"

"To be precise, he had to rebel, and he was also forced to rebel by Zhu Yunwen!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he sighed slowly.

"But he came to Yingtian Mansion with only a few hundred personal guards, how could he rebel?"

Even though Zhu Biao was mentally prepared, he still couldn't help being shocked after getting this affirmative answer!
  "Lao Jiu directly gave Zhu Yunwen a discount, saying that he was willing to help the court put down Lao Si's rebellion!"

"Zhu Yunwen agreed, and plans to deal with Lao Jiu after Lao Jiu pacifies Lao Si!"

Zhu Yuanzhang continued to tell.

Zhu Biao was silent, his expression uncertain for a while!
  Could it be that Lao Jiu planned to use the opportunity of pacifying Lao Si to control the military power of the imperial court, and then start a rebellion?

No, things are definitely not that simple!
  No matter how stupid Zhu Yunwen is, there are still civil and military officials in the entire dynasty!
  It is impossible for the imperial court to give Lao Jiu such an opportunity, and will even impose more restrictions on him!

But Zhu Yunwen actually wanted to use Lao Jiu to deal with Lao Si. Once Lao Jiu dealt with Lao Si, Lao Jiu would not be far from death!
  The rabbit is dead and the dog is cooked, and the bird is hidden behind the bow. This boy Zhu Yunwen really dares to think!
  and many more……

Didn't Lao Jiu go to Xiaoling and bring the old man's imperial soul to Juhu?
  Thinking of this, Zhu Biao seemed to have grasped the key!

"Dad, did you help Lao Jiu win the throne?"

Zhu Biao looked at Zhu Yuanzhang in disbelief!
  Although such an idea seems a bit nonsense, in the past, Zhu Biao would not even think about it!
  After all, how could a dead person still appear in front of everyone?

But Lao Jiu has the ability to restrain spirits and dispatch generals!
  He captured the old man’s imperial soul!
  If the old man really appears in the court again, it is not impossible to depose the emperor Zhu Yunqi and promote Lao Jiu to the throne!
  Not to mention, Zhu Biao's ideas and what Zhu Yuanzhang saw in the simulator are basically the same!
  Although Zhu Yuanzhang's Emperor Soul did not appear in many scenes in the simulator, and it only appeared once, Zhu Yuanzhang himself also analyzed that at that time, he definitely regretted letting Zhu Yunwen become emperor!
  Especially after knowing that his own son was even forced to death by Zhu Yunwen, I wanted to kill him!
  But Emperor Hun still couldn't bear to take action after all, so he gave Zhu Yunzhen a lesson, which was considered a bad breath!
  If he, Zhu Yuanzhang, killed his grandson with his own hands, what would be the difference between him and Zhu Yunwen, who forced his uncles to death?
  He, Lao Zhu, is a person who cares about family ties after all!

Zhu Yunwen can be ruthless, but Zhu Yuanzhang cannot do it!
  Of course, it was impossible for Zhu Yuanzhang to let Zhu Yunwen continue to be the emperor, and his appearance was the biggest reason why most of the civil and military officials in the dynasty turned to Lao Jiu!

With him, Emperor Hongwu, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, standing behind Lao Jiu, even though he was already an emperor soul at that time, who dared to disobey him, and who dared to have any twisted thoughts about Zhu Li, the king of Han, who was supported by Lord Hongwu?
  From this point of view, even if Zhu Yuanzhang's emperor soul did not say in public that he wanted Zhu Yue to succeed Zhu Yunzhen, the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty would all think in this direction!
  Therefore, it was Zhu Yuanzhang's imperial soul that helped Zhu Yue, the ninth elder, stabilize the court, and ultimately helped him successfully snatch the throne from Zhu Yunwen. There was nothing wrong with it at all!

What's more important is that with the support of the founding king of the country, at least the officials in the court will not say that Lao Jiu's position is unfair!
  Perhaps ordinary people may not believe the theory of the emperor's soul, or even know it, but most of the civil and military officials of the dynasty have seen it and know it!
  Perhaps under the circumstances at that time, Zhu Yuanzhang's imperial soul supported Lao Jiu Zhu Yue's ascension to the throne. This was the best choice for Lao Zhu's family, the Ming Dynasty, and the people of the world!

"Forget it, you're right to say that!"

"Just after Lao Jiu came back from Xiaoling, Zhu Yunwen issued an order for Lao Jiu to go and quell Lao Si's rebellion, but Lao Jiu refused!"

"Zhu Yunwen was so angry that he sent people to arrest Lao Jiu, but he never thought that Lao Jiu would rush into the palace directly. With the protective magic weapon he refined, he could withstand thousands of imperial guards with just one person. The siege!”

Zhu Yuanzhang recalled the scene he saw from the simulator and slowly recounted it.

"what?"

"Standing back thousands of Imperial Guards with one person!"

When Zhu Biao heard this, his face was even more shocked!

This is equivalent to one person taking on thousands of Imperial Guards. Is Lao Jiu's strength really so terrifying?

That's right, Lao Jiu has a protective magical weapon that makes him invulnerable, and can also control spirits and dispatch generals. Without this diamond, how could he be in danger alone?

Before, he couldn't figure out why Lao Jiu fell into the tiger's mouth. Now it seems that Lao Jiu is the real tiger, and Zhu Yunwen is the sheep!

In front of Lao Jiu, Zhu Yunwen's ability is really not enough!

"When we first saw this, we were as shocked as you, but this was just brute force!"

"The most important thing is that Lao Jiu directly moved out all the famous emperor souls in the past dynasties in front of everyone!"

"We were so angry at the time that we gave Zhu Yunwen a severe beating!"

"But we didn't kill him in the end. After all, he is our biological grandson and your biological son, so we still relented!"

Zhu Yuanzhang continued with a wry smile.

Hearing this, Zhu Biao was shocked at the same time, and he could probably imagine how disappointed and disappointed the old man as the Emperor Soul would be with Zhu Yunwen at that time!

Stop talking about the old man!

As a biological father, just listening to what the old man just told me, I wanted to kill this little beast Zhu Yunwen!

"So, Lao Jiu later became the emperor?"

"What about the fourth child?"

After Zhu Biao digested the information that Zhu Yuanzhang just said, he asked curiously.

"Lao Jiu was not in a hurry to seize Zhu Yunwen's throne directly. He placed Zhu Yunwen under house arrest and took control of the entire court!"

"The Fourth Brother rebelled and raised troops. He was fighting with the slogan of Fengtian Jingnan to clear the emperor's side!"

"Lao Jiu killed Fang Xiaoru, Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai, the three culprits who supported Zhu Yunwen's attempt to cut down the feudal vassal, and sent their heads to Lao Si. The purpose was to get Lao Si to retreat!"

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head slowly. Zhu Biao had a look of surprise when he heard this!

How could Lao Jiu be so calm?

With the support of the old man's imperial soul, he might have deposed Zhu Yunwen's throne and become the emperor himself!

What does it mean to just put Zhu Yunwen under house arrest?
  However, Lao Jiu was able to deliver the heads of Fang Xiaoru and others to Lao Si, which shows that Lao Jiu does not want to conflict with Lao Si and wants Lao Si to retreat like this!
  This is also a good thing!
  "However, the Fourth Brother has no intention of retreating. Instead, he says that the Ninth Brother is plotting rebellion, and the army is still planning to kill Yingtian all the way!"

"But Lao Jiu is not Zhu Yunwen's loser. Lao Si couldn't get the slightest advantage in his hands, so Lao Si turned his gun and prepared to attack Hanzhong Mansion. He took down Lao Jiu's lair first!"

What Zhu Yuanzhang said next made Zhu Biao's heart suddenly sink!
  He had just thought that since Lao Jiu had sent the heads of Fang Xiaoru and others to Lao Si, it would be possible to prevent the two brothers from fighting each other again, but he did not expect that Lao Si would continue to fight and even point the spear directly. Turned to Lao Jiu!

While feeling shocked, Zhu Biao also realized a problem!
  That means the fourth child definitely wants to be the emperor!
  Whether he has it now or not, he definitely did at that time!

It was also a rebellion. When Lao Si saw that Lao Jiu was about to succeed, he couldn't sit still and decided to make a desperate move!
  "The fourth child is confused!"

"Originally, if he retreats, nothing will happen. Lao Jiu may not do anything to him!"

"If he does this, doesn't he cut off his own escape route?"

Zhu Biao couldn't help but feel a little sad!

I had already heard that Zhu Yunwen killed his own uncles. Zhu Biao couldn't accept this incident of uncles and nephews killing each other!
  Are my own brothers still killing each other now?
  "Haha... What Lao Si didn't expect was that Lao Jiu still had a backup plan in Hanzhong Mansion!"

"When Lao Si's army arrives in Hanzhong..."

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately told the story about Lao Jiu still raising thousands of soldiers in Hanzhong!

When he heard that those invulnerable zombies could be commanded by the Taoist priests trained by Lao Jiu, and killed the Yan army, leaving behind their helmets and armor, Zhu Biao was so shocked that he couldn't react for a long time!

Originally, he thought that Lao Jiu could refine life-extending pills, any magical weapons, and his ability to restrain spirits and dispatch generals would be awesome, but he didn't expect that Lao Jiu could actually create a zombie army!

What kind of magical method is this?

Is Lao Jiu really an immortal?
  How can these methods be used by a mortal?
  "Due to the existence of the Ji Army, Lao Si couldn't capture Hanzhong at all, but Lao Jiu took advantage of this gap and directly sent troops to capture Beiping Mansion and captured Lao Si's wife and children alive!"

"When the fourth child rushed back to Peiping, he knew that the situation was over and had to surrender. Then the whole family was escorted back to Yingtian!"

Zhu Yuanzhang continued to talk regardless of how shocked Zhu Biao was.

"Then how did Lao Jiu deal with Lao Si in the end?"

Zhu Biao felt nervous again!
  The fourth child lost, which he expected!
  Lao Jiu has so many tricks and trump cards, and each one is more terrifying than the last. How can Lao Si defeat him?

But what he was most worried about happened still!

The fourth child clearly had the opportunity to return to Peiping directly and continue to be his King of Yan, but he decided to take the risk and ended up like this!

It’s all because of the throne!
  It’s just that the fourth child is too ambitious!
  But on second thought, Zhu Biao felt helpless.

I guess everyone has ambition, but does Lao Jiu really have no ambition?

The only difference is that the fourth child is not strong enough and has not been able to fight against the ninth child!

The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. After all, there is only one throne, so it cannot be said that the fourth child must be wrong!

"We know what you are worried about, but what I can tell you is that Lao Jiu did not embarrass Lao Si. He even handed Lao Si's family and the Yan army who were originally captives back to him, so that he could continue to return to Peking as his son. The prince!"

"Not only Lao Si, but also the other vassal kings who were originally persecuted by Zhu Yunwen, except for Lao Twelve, who is already dead, have all restored their titles and returned to their fiefdoms!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw Zhu Biao's tangled look, he didn't hide it, and directly told Zhu Biao how Lao Jiu dealt with these vassal kings!
  "Lao Jiu actually has such a big heart?"

"But in this case, these vassal kings, including the fourth child, will definitely be grateful to him, right?"

Zhu Biao was surprised at first when he heard this, but then he had to start to marvel at Lao Jiu's huge pattern!

This is definitely the most brilliant approach, and it will also allow Lao Jiu to gain the favor and support of all the feudal kings!
  In addition, behind Lao Jiu is the support of the old man’s imperial soul...

"Yes!"

"Maybe it's just for our sake!"

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled bitterly and nodded.

Zhu Biao suddenly realized.

After all, the old man’s imperial soul is still there. Even if he doesn’t give face to the other brothers, Lao Jiu will always give him the face of his biological father, right?

"If you want to put it that way, the Yan-Fan Rebellion has been put down. Lao Jiu should be able to take over now, right?"

Zhu Biao probably understood why Zhu Yue didn't directly depose Zhu Yunwen at the beginning!
  He wants to wait until everything has settled and won the support of all the feudal lords before he can wait for that position!
  In this way, Lao Jiu became the emperor, and everyone expected him to do so!

Even if there is anyone among the vassal kings who is not convinced, even Lao Si, the direct fourth brother and the eldest brother of all the vassal kings at that time, has no objections. How can the other brothers dare to have any objections?
  "That's right!"

"Zhu Yunwen also knew that his situation was over, so he made three concessions and gave up the throne directly to Lao Jiu, and also issued a sinner edict!"

"This way, Lao Jiu won't have to bear the reputation of being unfairly appointed!"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slowly and said.
