Chapter 157: The so-called family affection

What exactly is the reason. Nurhachi has not yet spoken. But here he speaks. Zhang Fan must have known what Ruan Er must have said, and Zhu Yijun was very concerned about something.

But what is it that can make a prince though. But because of the young age. Now still living carefree children so caring. Nurhachi's words have not yet been spoken. Zhang Fan began to guess himself.

Beauty. Zhang Fan first thought of this. But the thought appeared in his mind less than a moment before he threw it away. Are you kidding. Although this kind of thing can be said to be invincible. However, it still depends on the situation to carry out this kind of strategy. Let's take the object of beauty. Zhu Yijun may be a person who knows how to follow his own desires. But don't forget. Today's Zhu Yijun is just an eight-year-old child. Even some royal children are indeed ridiculous. But Zhang Fan, who knows Zhu Yijun well, would never think that Zhu Yijun would fall for this kind of strategy. Of course. If Zhu Yijun encounters such a thing again in the future. He's going to get it. But for today's Zhu Yijun. It's absolutely impossible.

And. It also costs money to perform this kind of beauty trick. Although Zhang Fan has never seen Ruan'er's face. But judging from the news reported by his subordinates and what Nurhachi had just told him. This Ruan'er's appearance is definitely not a national beauty. Of course. Zhang Fan may have doubts about the aesthetics of Nurhachi, a foreign child. But he had also heard it from his men. According to those people. This Ruan Er is by no means a beautiful woman. And according to them. Ruan Er's appearance is very ordinary. How ordinary is it? How to say it. It's a line away from the word "ugly".

Since it's not a beauty. What could that be. Zhang Fan thought of going somewhere else. Money wealth. It's even more of a joke. Maybe Zhu Yijun. Even when he paid a private visit to Longqing. You don't have a penny on your back. But for them, who own the whole world and will own the whole world, this is not a problem at all. Of course. There may be people in this world who are richer than the royal family. But let's not mention that Zhu Yijun and his Lao Tzu now have the power of life and death. Even if they are greedy for money. Wealth in this form is absolutely disdainful to them.

Longqing wants money. He can send Zhang Fan out to thoroughly investigate corrupt officials. Anyway, there are many corrupt officials in the world. I can't finish it. If only there was no money. He can send Zhang Fan or other ministers to go around. The money will naturally be in hand. And for Zhu Yijun. The prince, who is now only eight years old, seems to have a better appetite for money. He mentioned it to Zhang Fanna to him. The plundering of wealth abroad has not stopped. On the contrary, it is still encouraged. Even a few days after Zhang Fan told him about it. He kept coming to Zhang Fan to talk about it. I also want to expand the scale a lot.

But anyway. None of them had any thoughts about the kind of wealth that Zhang Fan had guessed. Plundering wealth overseas can not only make one's country strong. It will also weaken the country. This kind of self-serving thing is what they want. Something else. They didn't care.

Afterwards. What's left. Right. This is even more. Zhu Yijun was originally the crown prince who was about to ascend the throne as the emperor. Where else would he think about power. Even. Zhu Yijun wants to do everything possible to get rid of this kind of right that he will obtain. Because of his career as a prince and a prince. There's so much to see. This made him much more precocious than the children of ordinary eunuchs. It also made him understand a truth: the greater the power. The greater the responsibility. He knew a lot about emperors in history from the mouths of the speakers. There is even a living example of this in front of his own eyes. His father, the Emperor. Longqing was clearly not a diligent emperor. It's not just about coveting women. It is also very luxurious on weekdays. But even so. Longqing still has the heart to be a good emperor. There are some things he still needs to ask about. But Zhu Yijun knew. Even if it's just this so-called "something". It also made his father spend several hours a day doing it. For this matter. Zhu Yijun complained to Zhang Fan secretly several times. How could Zhang Fan not know. However, Zhang Fan was also very comforted at that time. After all, the Wanli Emperor in history is too famous. Thirty years without leaving the palace gate. Ignore the government. No suburbs, no temples, no courts, no seeing, no criticism, no talking. For a generation of emperors who may make such "great achievements" in the future. How could Zhang Fan not be vigilant.

Come back here. Not to mention whether there is any conspiracy behind this matter that Zhu Yijun and Ruan Er can talk about like this. Just why Zhu Yijun is so close to this Ruan'er. Zhang Fan couldn't figure it out. In his heart, he turned out everything that could attract Zhu Yijun's attention. But none of them made sense.

"What did Ruan Er say to Jun'er?" The anxious Zhang Fan also ignored Nurhachi, who was about to say the answer. Hurriedly asked.

Nurhachi was a little puzzled by this anxious attitude with Zhang Fan. But he understood it right away. Zhang Fan is now a little concerned and chaotic. I don't think about it anymore. He immediately replied, "Go back to your lordship." Ruan Er said to His Royal Highness. His Highness is very much like his deceased brother. ”

Zhang Fan was listening. only to find that Nurhachi had stopped speaking for a long time. I couldn't help but be surprised: "That's it." ”

"That's all."

"That's it? Isn't there any down there?"

That's it. There is no one below. ”

Zhang Fan, who got the answer. Now there is no point in unraveling the mystery. On the contrary, I was even more confused. Regardless of whether this Ruan Er approached Zhu Yijun with a conspiracy. But if he just said this, he could coax Zhu Yijun so much. This...... This His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is too easy to fool.

Nurhachi looked at Zhang Fan's furrowed brows. He didn't show any surprise. He said, "Can't you figure it out, sir." Let's be honest. At that time, I didn't know what His Highness had a good impression of this Ruan'er. So I didn't care about Ruan'er's words. But I found out. After Ruan Er said this. His Highness and her got a little closer to each other. The conversation and stuff got closer. At that time, I was just like an adult today. I can't figure out what the hell is going on.

"On the way back from Your Highness and I that day. I just want to ask Your Highness what the hell is going on. It's just that at that time, I thought that His Royal Highness's momentary curiosity would be so close to Ruan'er. Just where to know. Your Highness, he went to the opera garden again the next day. And the closeness between him and Ruan Er is still increasing. Come back that night. I couldn't help myself. Only then did he open his mouth to ask His Highness what was going on.

"At first. His Highness also refused to tell me. But I never let it go. Keep asking His Highness about him. Your Highness may be annoyed. Or maybe it's because His Highness treats me as a friend. That's when I was told why. His Highness said. He felt that Ruan Er was very much like his sister. ”

"You said Jun'er, he said that this Ruan'er is very similar to Jun'er's sister." Zhang Fan looked at Nurhachi. Asked again with some uncertainty. After getting an affirmative answer. Zhang Fan was even more confused. There is no other reason. Zhu Yijun's sisters. Zhang Fan has seen it all. Princess Shouyang, Princess Yongning, Princess Ruian, Princess Yanqing, and Princess Qixia, the daughters of Longqing. Zhang Fan has seen it all. However, Zhang Fan did not find any resemblance to the Ruan Er that Nurhachi had described to him.

"Nope. In fact, His Highness is not talking about Ruan Er, like one of His Royal Highness's sisters. Rather, it is said that His Royal Highness thinks that Ruan Er is like His Royal Highness's sister. Nurhachi added.

This sentence seems to be a bit like a tongue twister. Zhang Fan immediately understood. And then. He also figured out what the whole thing was. The reason why Zhu Yijun said that Ruan Er is like his sister. It's not that Ruan Er is similar to one of his sisters. Instead, Ruan Er gave Zhu Yijun a feeling of being his sister.

That doesn't sound like a good idea. But Zhang Fan understands it very well. Children of the Royals. Born different from the common people. Although they are free from birth. Sought after by 10,000 people. You don't have to worry about your life; But it's the same. They may be born to determine their future lives. Especially a woman who was born into the royal family. They need to be knowledgeable. Don't be arrogant on weekdays. I can't play with any daughter's temper. Everything has to look perfect. Since the middle of the Ming Dynasty. The imperial court had a rule. Candidates for the horses had to be chosen from the homes of commoners or low-ranking officials. And if someone is chosen. Then no one in the family will be allowed to become an official. Of course. If any princess doesn't want to. There is one more way. That's to be dressed up. Send it to and pro. But it doesn't matter which way it goes. For these princesses, it is not a good place to go.

Zhu Yijun's sisters are naturally princesses of the Ming Dynasty. But they have never been close to Zhu Yijun. On weekdays, it's just a matter of etiquette. Say hello like a set machine. There was no sense of family at all. This may be the sorrow of being born in the royal family.

These princesses have heard a lot about the unfortunate lives of their aunts. But for Zhu Yijun, the younger brother who will definitely become the emperor in the future. His sisters didn't treat him any kinder. In the future, when I am going to get married. Their younger brother, who is the emperor, will find a good family for himself. Or maybe it's the open side of the net. Let yourself go or something. After all, their character in their bones is to abide by royal etiquette. This must not be done. And the experience of the "ancestors" tells them. People who often want to play this kind of cleverness. The end was miserable.

And so. Obviously. Zhu Yijun's childhood was not very good. Although his father the emperor. Both his biological mother and the current queen are very fond of him. But he still feels lonely. So if he can have an approachable person. It doesn't matter if it's sweet or bitter. My sister who will talk about everything to herself. This mood. Zhang Fan naturally understands. This has nothing to do with Ruan'er's appearance. This. is completely Zhu Yijun's inner expectation.
