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

Chapter 179 North Korea and China Factions
  Zhu Xuan came to the main hall because he really wanted to visit Fang Xiaoru.

In the past, Fang Xiaoru was relatively old-fashioned and boring, but in his opinion, he was still better than Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng. After teaching Fang Xiaoru some of the contents of mind learning, Fang Xiaoru also changed a lot.

Zhu Xuan felt that Fang Xiaoru was a better person. In contrast, Qi Tai and the others were more utilitarian. After the visit, he left the main hall, but before he could go far, he happened to meet Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng.

"Little grandson!"

Qitai first showed what he thought was a kind smile.

Huang Zicheng smiled and said: "I heard that the little emperor's grandson came to the main hall, and we came here specifically to take a look."

Behind Zhu Yunxi was Lan Yu, an old man who was at odds with them.

Now Zhu Yunxun's chances are slim. Representatives of their civil servants have also tried to join Zhu Yunxi's camp, but Lan Yu and other generals have always squeezed out the civil servants.

They tried to please Zhu Yunxi several times, but were interrupted by Lan Yu, who mocked and threatened them all, and had to give up. Just when they were feeling depressed, a dark horse who was better than Zhu Yunxi appeared, and the hopes of the Wenchen Group were ignited. .

In fact, there are three factions in the DPRK.

One is Zhu Yunxi's noble military general faction, and the other is Zhu Di's prince faction. However, the number of people in this faction is very small, and their supporters are all the generals who fought with Zhu Di.

Zhu Di was acquainted with many officials in the DPRK, but those officials all had their own sides. In addition, Zhu Di was in Peiping all year round, so communication was not in-depth and he could not really win over him.

The third faction is now the Little Emperor Sun Faction.

The time of its rise was probably when the memorial of Zhu Xuan's meritorious service was sent back. Its momentum quickly overwhelmed the previous two factions and became the new hope of the civil servant group.

Although the little grandson prefers the battlefield, it doesn't matter to them, as long as he doesn't have anything to do with the blue jade old man.

"Mr. Qi, Mr. Huang." Zhu Xuan said.

Zhu Xuan didn't know much about the affairs of the factions in the DPRK, various ministers, who supported whom, etc., but he was certain that he should become a favorite, and Huang Zicheng and the two came to visit.

In contrast, when he met Fang Xiaoru just now, Zhu Xuan didn't mention this matter, and Fang Xiaoru didn't mention it at all. He felt that Fang Xiaoru was better than the two of them.

"Two gentlemen came to see me. What's the matter?"

Zhu Xuan asked pretending not to understand.

Huang Zicheng smiled and said: "It's nothing, I just know that the little emperor's grandson is back. We have all been his teachers, so I wanted to come and meet him, just to reminisce about old times and chat with the little emperor's grandson by the way. Some special things thing."

"So that's the case!"

Zhu Xuan pretended to think, and then said: "I'm getting ready to leave the palace. Gentlemen, how about we find a tea shop outside the palace to drink tea and reminisce about the past?"

Huang Zicheng and the others' eyes lit up. This was what they wanted. They nodded and said, "Okay!"

Zhu Xuan asked: "But don't you two have any official duties?"

"Not today!"

Qitai shook his head and said: "If so, how could we dare to come to see His Highness? I know there is a very elegant tea shop, how about we go and sit there?"

As Zhu Xuan's former husband, they became elected representatives among the civil servants. They were responsible for contacting Zhu Xuan, building relationships, and re-aligning with them, so that they no longer had to look at the faces of military commanders.

They left the palace together.

Qitai led the way to the Qinhuai River.

This tea shop was built on the river bank. They went to the third floor of the tea shop and asked for a seat on the edge. Looking out of the railing, they could take in the scenery of this section of the river bank.

You can see the cruise ships rushing by and the wind blowing the willow branches, which is very nice.

The waiter at the tea shop brought a charcoal stove, a kettle, and a lot of tea leaves. If someone needed help making tea, they would arrange for someone to stand by, but they had Hou Xian here, so there was no need to bother.

"It's better to come back and feel comfortable."

Zhu Xuan took a sip of tea. Qitai said: "The little emperor's grandson has made great contributions in opening up the territory for our Ming Dynasty. No one in the court knows it. It's just that you have just come back, so you may not have heard some special words."

Zhu Xuan asked him curiously: "What are you talking about?"

The two of them felt different when they saw Zhu Xuan at this time. They also felt that Zhu Xuan was more mature now than before. He was obviously a ten-year-old child, but he gave people the impression of a thirty-year-old adult. That kind of feeling, mature and steady, smooth and comfortable, unfazed by favor or disgrace.

Such an imperial grandson is definitely a powerful player to win the throne.

What can Zhu Yunxi use to compete with the little emperor grandson? The blue jade old man will definitely lose this time.

Although Zhu Di is very mature and has a lot of merits, if he still had the possibility, he would not have been directly driven back to heaven by Lao Zhu a few years ago. Although he was allowed to come back recently, he will definitely not stay for a long time.

Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng had so much in mind in an instant.

They thought that they had done a good job going to the southwest and came back with great achievements, shocking the court and giving them one more choice as civil servants.

"Many people in the court are spreading rumors that the little emperor's grandson may be made the emperor's grandson by His Majesty," Huang Zicheng said.

"Really?" Zhu Xuan asked with interest.

Qi Tai nodded and said: "The little emperor's grandson came back from the expedition and still made great achievements. In addition, he is already very favored. Many ministers think it is possible."

Zhu Xuan shook the teacup gently.

He is still not very clear about what Grandpa Huang is thinking, whether it is his second brother or his fourth uncle. The most important thing is that Grandpa Huang has not made it public, making it difficult for people to guess, and it also makes others think that an opportunity has come.

In fact, he really didn't want to argue with his second brother.

This will destroy their relationship.

Zhu Xuan still didn't know what his second brother was thinking, whether he wanted to keep fighting or whether he wanted to lie down and live happily as a lazy prince from now on.

As for the fourth uncle, there will be no psychological pressure when dealing with Zhu Xuan in the future.

He had tricked his fourth uncle last time, and was driven back to Peking by Grandpa Huang. It had been a long time since he could come back.

"What should I do?"

Zhu Xuan asked himself in his heart.

Seeing Zhu Xuan's silence, Huang Zicheng echoed: "What do you think, Your Highness? If you have this intention, all of us in the civil service will help you get that position."

It was very common in ancient dynasties to stand up for the prince and grandson.

Especially in the early Ming Dynasty, the civil servants and military generals were at loggerheads. They all hoped to choose a prince or grandson who could support the next emperor and become a hero.

But Zhu Xuan is not as easy to control as Zhu Yunwen.

They supported Zhu Yunwen in the past because he was timid and easy for them to manipulate. Zhu Xuan was definitely not easy to manipulate.

But the civil servants were at a disadvantage, and they didn't care what they were doing, as long as they had hope.

Can't be overpowered by generals.

"Are you two serious?"

Zhu Xuan's words instantly gave them hope.

Qi Tai solemnly said: "We are absolutely serious, and on behalf of all civil servants, we have come to discuss with His Highness. If we think there is no problem, we will all be His Highness's people from now on."

What they didn't know was that what they were discussing was heard by a Jinyiwei with excellent hearing who was sitting next to him. There was also Lan Yu's adopted son who happened to be sitting not far away, although he couldn't hear what was said. Nothing, but he recognized who Zhu Xuan and the others were.
