Daming: I am the most powerful emperor grandson, please abdicate the throne

Chapter 107 Fourth Uncle’s Thoughts

Yao Guangxiao has been deceiving Zhu Di to become emperor.

The first three brothers are gone, and Zhu Yuanzhang has never determined who his successor is. Under this situation, Zhu Di was indeed deceived and was very moved. When he came back to pay homage to the eldest brother, he acted very sincerely.

Zhu Yuanzhang was indeed moved when he saw Zhu Di like this. He felt that among so many sons, except for the deceased Biao'er, it was Zhu Di who valued family ties the most. He was still like this after five years, which was very gratifying.

He was also moved by Zhu Di's true feelings. His eye circles were red and his nose was sore. Thinking of Biao'er, his sister and his eldest grandson in the imperial mausoleum, he felt like crying.

When Zhu Xuan saw him, he felt that his fourth uncle was good at pretending.

He looked back again, where a monk in black clothes was pretending to chant sutras. This man was Yao Guangxiao, who had followed Zhu Di back to the capital. If he hadn't seen this guy, Zhu Xuan might have believed his fourth uncle like the emperor. true feelings.

"Okay, go back!"

Seeing that it was almost done, Zhu Yuanzhang patted Zhu Di on the shoulder, then picked up Zhu Xuan and left the imperial mausoleum.

"Father, let me come!"

Zhu Di wiped the tears from his face and said, "You are older, and little Yunxuan has grown up, so it is more appropriate for me to hold him."

Zhu Yuanzhang did not refuse, so he placed Zhu Xuan in front of Zhu Di.

"Thank you fourth uncle!"

Zhu Xuan said sensibly.

"You're welcome, little Yunxuan."

Zhu Di took Zhu Xuan and walked in the direction of the carriage, and said: "Little Yunxuan is so good, he is becoming more and more like my elder brother. My elder brother must have felt that my father was lonely, so he sent little Yunxuan to accompany you."

Zhu Di didn't take Zhu Xuan seriously, nor did he regard him as a threat.

Zhu Yunxi was defeated, and he felt that the biggest threat was Zhu Yunxi.

However, when facing Zhu Yunxi, Zhu Di was not rude. He acted like a fourth uncle, was polite to Zhu Yunxi, acted very friendly, and valued family ties.

The emperor's grandson who came with him felt sour when he saw Zhu Xuan being so favored.

The princes who came together felt very sad when they saw Zhu Di performing so well in front of his father and being so satisfied with him, but they knew very well that there was a big gap between him and his fourth brother in terms of competitiveness.

With Fourth Brother here, they basically have no hope.

Many princes came back with only a little hope, trying to behave as well as possible to attract the attention of their father.

"Poor, our standard..."

After hearing Zhu Di's words, Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and returned to the chariot.

Zhu Di put Zhu Xuan down and comforted him: "Father, my condolences!"

Zhu Xuan quickly walked over and gently wiped the tears from Grandpa Huang's face.

"My dear grandson must have been sent by Biao'er to accompany us."

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled slightly and took one last look at the imperial mausoleum. He seemed not to want to stay here for too long to avoid causing sadness in his heart. He waved and said, "Go back!"

The people who came to worship followed the chariot back to the city one after another.

Zhu Di fell behind and Yao Guangxiao stepped forward.

"Master, how is it?"

"Your Highness has done a great job, but I think your Majesty is too doting on the little grandson!"

"I think it's okay!"

Zhu Di shook his head slightly and said: "Little Yunxuan only looks like my elder brother so that he can be favored by his father and relieve his worries. Now that my father is old, he cannot wait until little Yunxuan grows up, which is the most threatening to me. It’s Zhu Yunxi who is here, and that old man Lan Yu is also back. I’ll have a chat with him in two days to test his tone of voice.”

Behind Zhu Yunxi, there was the support of Huaixi nobles.

As the leader of Huaixi nobles, Lan Yu is more important to find out what he thinks.

Yao Guangxiao always felt that something was wrong.

But he couldn't tell what was wrong. Maybe he saw that Zhu Yuanzhang was walking like a tiger and showing no signs of aging. The little emperor's grandson was actually still a threat.

"Your Highness, when are you going to return to Peking?"

Yao Guangxiao asked. Zhu Di shook his head and said: "There is no war in the north. I don't plan to go back so soon. If I go back, I won't have a chance to contact my father. It's better to stay until my father lets me go back. I know what's appropriate, so don't worry, master."

Yao Guangxiao nodded slightly.

They followed Zhu Yuanzhang, and after returning to the city, they left separately and returned to their palaces.

Zhu Xuan naturally followed Lao Zhu back to the palace, and both grandfather and grandson were silent along the way.

Zhu Yuanzhang was still sad because of what happened just now. Zhu Xuan looked tired, but he was thinking about his fourth uncle in his heart. It was obvious that his fourth uncle had something on his mind.

No one knows whether the future throne will be passed to him or to Zhu Yunxi.

Zhu Xuan was thinking that if it really fell on him, he would have to be wary of his fourth uncle, which was a bit stressful.

But as long as he is not as useless as Zhu Yunzhen, no matter what Zhu Di wants to do, it will not be a big problem. If he starts a rebellion, that is even better. The righteousness is on his side.

If it were passed on to the second brother Zhu Yunxi, he wouldn't need to worry.

Huaixi Xungui is still alive.

Sapphire is still there too.

I can suppress my fourth uncle.

Thinking of these, Zhu Xuan simply put all worries behind him.

"Grandpa Huang, has the fourth uncle been in the north, fighting with Bei Yuan?"

"Yes what's the matter?"

Zhu Yuanzhang came to his senses.

Zhu Xuan admired him: "The fourth uncle is really powerful. My grandson also wants to be like the fourth uncle, go to war and share the worries of the emperor."

Zhu Yuanzhang's sadness dissipated and he laughed and said: "My dear grandson is going to fight. It will take many more years to do it. The battlefield is very dangerous. How can Grandpa Huang be willing to let you go to fight?"

"For the Ming Dynasty, my grandson is not afraid of danger."

"So sensible!"

Zhu Yuanzhang liked hearing such words and held the child in his arms.

The chariot was very fast and stopped in the palace.

Seeing Zhu Xuan yawning, Zhu Yuanzhang asked Hou Xian to take his darling grandson back to rest.

-

Time has passed for several days.

The imperial uncles are all back, and the palace is also very lively. Every once in a while, the imperial uncles come into the palace to have a meal with Zhu Yuanzhang, chat, etc., hoping to gain some goodwill.

Zhu Xuan also met many imperial uncles and tried his best to behave well-behaved and lovable.

However, the emperor's uncles seemed to be like Zhu Di. After returning to the capital, they didn't really want to return to the vassal state.

If Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't say anything, Zhu Xuan won't have any objection. Whatever the emperor's uncle wants to do, it doesn't matter to him!
  The factory is very stable now.

Zhu Xuan often communicates with Uncle Twenty on how to improve the production line, etc.

According to Hou Xian's report, the research and development of the steam engine has begun. As for when it will be completed, Hou Xian is not sure. He can only say that he is working hard on research and development.

He stayed in the palace for several days.

Zhu Xuan decided to take leave and go outside for a walk.

After reading the Ming Dynasty Bookstore once, Zhu Xuan wanted to find his little wife. He first looked for Xu Miaojin, then Mu Yuanjun, and went directly to the Xu family.

But there are guests in the Xu family today.

Xu Huizu did not go to work at the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion and entertained guests at home. As soon as he entered the door, he saw a familiar figure, it was his fourth uncle Zhu Di, talking and laughing with Xu Huizu.

Next to Zhu Di, there was a beautiful woman in palace clothes.

Next to the woman, the well-behaved Xu Miaojin sat. Seeing Zhu Xuan coming, Xu Miaojin's eyes lit up, but she was too embarrassed to walk out.
