Chapter 176 The Dark Horse
  After he fell asleep, Zhu Yuanzhang asked Yun Qi to pick up Zhu Xuan, go back to Qianqing Palace, and sleep on his dragon couch.

Among all the princes and grandsons, Zhu Xuan was the first to receive such treatment.

Yun Qi's thoughts were naturally inclined towards Zhu Xuan. Seeing that His Majesty loved the little emperor's grandson so much, he was filled with joy and arranged for several palace maids to stand by and take care of him. He did not dare to neglect him at all.

This time, Zhu Xuan slept very comfortably.

When he got up the next day, Zhu Xuan stretched and found that he was sleeping on Grandpa Huang's dragon couch. As for Grandpa Huang, he was no longer in the palace.

"The little emperor is awake."

Yun Qi hurried over and said with a smile: "Your Majesty has gone to court. Xu Xingzu is preparing breakfast. In addition, His Majesty also said that after His Majesty woke up, he went to take a bath first. He forgot to change his bath last night. Your Majesty felt very smelly."

Zhu Xuan: "..."

I got off the boat yesterday and was a little tired. I fell asleep at Grandpa Huang's place before I even took a shower.

"Please, Eunuch Yun, go make arrangements."

Zhu Xuan said politely.

The smile on Yun Qi's face became even brighter, and he said with a smile: "Your Highness, there is no need to be polite to this old slave. If you need anything, just tell this slave to ask your Highness to come here!"

They returned to Zhu Xuan's small courtyard first.

Several young eunuchs came over and prepared the hot water, and Zhu Xuan sat comfortably in the tub.

Hou Xian also washed and massaged Zhu Xuan's hair.

After changing and cleaning, Xu Xingzu ran over in a hurry.

"Little grandson, breakfast is here. What do you want to eat today?"

he asked cheerfully.

It can also be seen that Zhu Xuan is now more favored than other emperors and grandchildren. He is definitely a dark horse. Moreover, His Majesty is still very tough and will have no problem living for another ten or twenty years.

This period of time is enough for Your Majesty to train the little grandson and prepare everything.

Xu Xingzu also wants to hug his thigh!

Even Xu Xingzu, a cook, thought so.

The officials in the Ming Dynasty had similar thoughts after receiving various battle reports from Zhu Xuan. Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Yunxi, or Zhu Laosi became unpopular candidates.

Zhu Xuan can also guess that when he comes back this time, he will be the hot topic in the court, which is equivalent to being on the hot search of Ming Dynasty.

First of all, he made great achievements and expanded the territory, which no prince or grandson could do.

Secondly, he was favored far more than all other princes and grandsons.

Zhu Yuanzhang's meaning is obvious.

The last point, which is also very important, is that Zhu Xuan’s origins have basically nothing to do with the ministers in the court and the nobles of Huaixi. The only ones who can be related to the nobles of Huaixi are probably the Xu family. However, the Xu family's recent behavior seems to be neutral, and even Zhu Di does not support it.

As for the Yunnan Mu family, in such a remote place, many ministers didn't care.

The civil servants in the court felt that they could change the object of support to Zhu Xuan, so that they no longer had to look at the face of Lan Yu, the old man.

The only problem is that the origin of Zhu Xuan's mother-in-law is unknown. Zhu Yuanzhang has not made the affairs of the palace maid public yet, so she will lose some competitiveness.

"I want porridge and two big buns."

Zhu Xuan put all his thoughts behind him for the time being and said cheerfully.

"arrange!"

As soon as Xu Xingzu came down, someone immediately made arrangements.

After Zhu Xuan had eaten, he went to the Jinshen Palace and saw that the emperor's grandfather had returned from the imperial court.

Zhu Yuanzhang saw that he was waiting for him and said with a smile: "My dear grandson, did you sleep well last night?"    "Very good!"

Zhu Xuan said happily: "Everything will be good when I come back to Grandpa Huang."

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed, asked him to come over, sat next to him, and asked formally about the affairs in the southwest. He decided to ask the White Lotus Sect first, and asked: "Did your good grandson ask the Jin Yiwei to find out the relationship between the White Lotus Sect and the Lu family?"

Now, all the people related to the Lu family, except Zhu Yunwen's brothers, all the nine clans have been wiped out.

The people of Jinyiwei had long reported Zhu Xuan's incident in Yunnan. Zhu Yuanzhang naturally knew what happened, including the incident with the White Lotus Sect. The good grandson actually thought that the White Lotus Sect was related to the Lu family.

He then thought of what Jiang Wei once said, that there was someone behind the Lu family, and coupled with Guaisun's judgment, he felt that the person behind the Lu family might be the White Lotus Sect.

That hateful White Lotus Sect has actually infiltrated into me!
  Zhu Yuanzhang was furious when he thought of this, but over the years, the White Lotus Sect has basically disappeared. He doesn't know where he is hiding, and Jin Yiwei can't find it.

Even if he wanted to destroy them, he didn't know where to go.

"Yes!"

Zhu Xuan nodded and said: "At that time, when Sun'er regained the lost territory for the Ming Dynasty and attacked the Annan people in Luzhou, he encountered a joint attack by the White Lotus Sect and the Annan people. Fortunately, Hou Xian and Yan Guan were there and defeated the enemy. Ran."

He briefly talked to Zhu Yuanzhang about what he encountered at that time and his suspicions about the White Lotus Sect.

"My grandson has always been with Grandpa Huang, and this is his first time traveling far away. He has never offended anyone else before, but the Lu family is an exception, so his grandson started thinking about this." Zhu Xuan explained.

Zhu Yuanzhang thought it made sense.

If there are really people behind the Lu family, those people are definitely the White Lotus Sect.

"Those hateful White Lotus Sect, we are extremely merciful by not annihilating them all. I didn't expect that they would go so far and even dare to kill our good grandson."

Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily: "Jiang Yu, did you hear that?"

Jiang Wei, who was beside him, said quickly: "I heard it."

Zhu Yuanzhang added: "Also, looking at the brothers Zhu Yunwen, the White Lotus Sect killed our good grandson for no reason. We think it was deliberately arranged by someone!"

The Lu family is gone, but it is possible that Zhu Yunwen took over the Lu family's position and was involved with the White Lotus Sect.

If this is really the case, Zhu Yuanzhang will never be polite.

The relatives must be killed out of justice!

"Yes!"

Jiang Wei said respectfully.

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted softly and said: "How did my dear grandson defeat Sanfoqi, and how did he help Mu Sheng kill Hu Ji Yao and his son? Tell us all about it, okay?"

He already knew these things.

But I just want Zhu Xuan to say it again. It will feel very different to hear his grandson say it himself.

"Okay!"

Zhu Xuan said: "First of all, let's talk about Chen Zuyi. When my grandson came to Guangzhou..."

He started from Chen Zuyi and talked about how Hu Jisao was captured.

As for the industrial transfer and factory matters, Zhu Xuan also told everything. He would not hide it from Grandpa Huang, and there was no need to hide it.

In these few months, Guaisun has actually done so many things.

"My dear grandson did a great job, even better than us!"

Zhu Yuanzhang added: "In addition, we have also seen the memorial you sent back. It is written very well on how to control Annan, how to assimilate them, and how to control the economic lifeline."

Zhu Xuan said: "These are Sun's ideas based on the local characteristics, and he thought about it carefully. Nowadays, young adults in Annan can make money in Sun's factory, and basically no one wants to be a soldier."

Annan had no troops, so it was impossible to rebel, and then he could spread the idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor and patriotism to others, and he could control it to death!
