In the Ming system, the prince was crowned the prince, awarded the gold book and gold treasure, the year Lu Wanshi, and the government placed the official subordinates. There were as few as 3,000 guards and as many as 19,000 men, and they were subordinate to the military department. The crown is the first in the car flag mansion, and the first class is under the son of heaven. The prince and the minister bowed and bowed, but did not dare to bow down. The eldest son of the prince, when he is ten years old, will be awarded the golden book and golden treasure, and will be established as the son of the king, and the eldest grandson will be established as the grandson, and the crown will be regarded as a product. When the sons were ten years old, they were awarded gold and silver books and silver treasures, and they were named the kings of the county. The eldest son is the son of the county king, and the eldest grandson is awarded to the eldest grandson, and the crown is regarded as the second grade. Zhuzi awarded General Zhenguo, General Sun Fuguo, great-grandson General Fengguo, Lieutenant Sun Zhenguo of the 4th, Lieutenant of Sun Fuguo of the 5th, and Lieutenant of Fengguo below the 6th.

Zhu Di only has three sons, so he naturally has to choose the best position when dividing the seal.

But for some reason, he sent his third son to Beiping, instead of Zhu Gaoxu, who made the greatest meritorious service.

He first sealed Zhu Gaochu to Yunnan, but Zhu Gaochu thought that Yunnan was too far away and refused to go to the domain.

Zhu Di didn't force him, and let him stay in the capital, but sealed him to Le'an.

Le'an is not a good place, but it is a county government, if Zhu Di really likes this son, how can he be reluctant to give him a good place?

Zhu Zhanji watched coldly, and he could feel that Zhu Di was not partial to Zhu Gaoxu, and even a little defensive. Otherwise, there would not be a vacant Jinan Mansion next to Le'an, but just a Le'an to Zhu Gaoxu.

Zhu Gaosui's prince is the first class, and he is also appointed to accompany the capital of Beiping, so the staff and the guest of honor should be the highest configuration, with 5,000 guards.

The cost of these 5,000 people was borne by the military department, and Zhu Gaosui did not need to bear the burden of a penny. Beiping is also the capital of the city, the center of the soldiers and horses in the north, it can be said that Zhu Gaosui at this time is much more powerful than Zhu Gaoxu, who is still hanging in the capital.

In order to express his welcome to Zhu Zhanji, Zhu Gaosui first greeted his family with family courtesy, and after seeing the ceremony, he led his subordinates to treat each other with national courtesy.

In the main hall of the Zhao Palace, the uncles and nephews of the Zhu family sat side by side, and on the right hand side were the officials of the Zhao Palace.

On the left-hand side, because Zhu Zhanji did not open the mansion, there were no direct officials under him, and only his two martial arts teachers and bodyguards got a seat, which seemed to be much weaker.

However, Zhu Zhanji was not at all uncomfortable in front of Zhu Gaosui, he talked and laughed with Zhu Gaosui, and he was able to chat with various civil and military officials, and he was not suppressed by the current momentum at all.

"Lord Wang, His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun has a reputation for wisdom at a young age, and he has been taught by Master Daoyan. Now it seems to be unnoticed, but it is not Zhongyong and the like, but the appearance of brilliance and introverted! ”

"How so?"

"The grandson is sixteen years old, but in the year of the dancing elephant, he is approachable. Whether it is with the soldiers in the army or with Confucian students, they can deal with one or two, which makes people feel like a spring breeze. This is great wisdom, not a small wisdom. In this way, the prince wants to test him today, and he has no intention of doing so. ”

Zhu Gaosui smiled indifferently and said softly: "It's so good, I want to see why he can win the favor of his father." ”

Although his tone was indifferent, and the smile on his face was as calm as ever, Zhao Shichun could still see the deep unwillingness in King Zhao's eyes.

From the Battle of Jingjing, Zhao Shichun was sent by Zhu Di to Zhu Gaosui's side to assist, and Zhao Shichun has been with Zhu Gaosui for sixteen spring and autumn periods.

He knows this prince better than anyone else.

followed Zhu Di to birth and death, and laid this great country, but no matter how hard they worked, they couldn't compare to Zhu Gaochi, who enjoyed his success.

In the Battle of Jingjing, Zhu Gaochi was so weak that he couldn't even ride a horse, so he could only sit in Beiping. In addition to the merit of guarding Beiping, it can be said that there is no achievement.

But he is the eldest son, so he won the support of the world's scholars and Zhu Di's preference.

No matter how hard Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui tried, they couldn't get out of the queen's belly earlier.

Zhao Shichun was also a person in the Hongwu period, so he naturally knew why.

There are no rules, no square circle, no matter how great the credit is, it is not as big as the rules.

In this world, anyone can leave it, but you can't leave the rules.

Although Zhu Di's throne was snatched from his nephew, he could not govern the entire country alone.

Therefore, he can only abide by this set of rules, and only when everyone follows the rules can the country be stable.

Unless Zhu Gaochu and Zhu Gaosui can also break this set of rules and establish their own rules like Zhu Di.

But the two brothers, Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui, are both ambitious and talented, and they are far from Zhu Di's ability.

Now, there is a Zhu Gaochu who has greater credit and stronger ability than Zhu Gaosui to support him in front. So Zhu Gaosui can still bear it, and he can hide behind and watch the excitement.

But he will never be reconciled.

Zhu Gaochu was suppressed by Zhu Di, first crowned King Yunnan, and then named Wang Le'an, but refused to give Zhu Gaochu a good place.

Zhu Gaosui was happy to watch the excitement in the back, because he was crowned the king of Beiping, this is from the land of dragons, and the conditions are much better than those of the Han king.

If the Han King Zhu Gaoxu gains power, he will definitely not be at ease, but if the Han King can't win, then Zhu Gaosui will only guard his own one-third of an acre.

It is impossible to expect him to rebel like Zhu Di.

Hearing Zhu Gaosui say this, Zhao Shichun smiled and said: "When the grandson first arrived in Beiping, he immediately gave a post to the prince. In the opinion of the minister, His Royal Highness the Taisun also attaches great importance to the prince, and if he wants to know the heart of the grandson, it is best for the prince to try it himself. ”

"That's exactly what I mean."

Zhu Gaosui glanced at Zhu Zhanji, who was discussing the transportation of grain and grass with several commanders, and secretly thought that he had never been on the battlefield, and no matter how much he knew, it was just talk on paper.

In this northern expedition, it will still be him who follows his father to the battlefield, as for you, a kid. Like your wretched father, stay in the back honestly.

Zhu Zhanji has been observing the attachés and generals of Zhao Wangfu, and after a meal, he has also roughly figured out the level of everyone.

Although the Zhao Wangfu is powerful, there is no one who really has the ability to command, and even if the generals of the two guards are not the ones who are vegetarians, they do not have much ability.

Don't say that compared with Zhang Fu and Liu Sheng's generation, it is also much inferior to Chen Mao, Li Bin and others.

From this, it can also be seen that Zhu Di is very strict against his sons. He gave his sons two or three guards to each of his soldiers, but the combat effectiveness of these people, even in Jingwei, was only at the middle level.

It is simply impossible to count on these people to rebel.

When he was full of wine and food, Zhu Gaosui said: "Zhanji, I haven't been to Beiping for many years, and my impression of Beiping has faded away, right?" ”

Zhu Zhanji pretended to be nostalgic and said: "It has been ten years since I was seven years old with my grandfather and grandmother to visit Beiping. Today, when he saw that the stone lion walking at the gate was still there, but his grandmother would never see him again, Zhan Ji sighed to himself. I still remember that my grandmother liked to climb the coal mountain and look at Beiping, and Zhan Ji also wanted to go to the coal mountain tomorrow and miss my grandmother. ”

Zhu Gaosui also sighed and said: "Fang Sizhiyin, I don't feel anything. Water springs and plants, salty feet and sorrows. Zhan Ji has this thought in his heart, and he does not prefer a game in vain. ”

Zhu Zhanji was embarrassed, he didn't understand.

Thinking that the other party is a martial artist, he can export chapters. Influenced by later generations, he has no preference for classical Chinese, and he has no interest in those classics.

Thinking that I have two great writers, I'm really sorry for them!

However, at this time, Zhu Zhanji is often good at changing the topic, looking at the bright moonlight outside, he said with a smile: "When I first arrived in Beiping today, my heart can't be quiet, and my nephew is willing to share the night in Beiping with Uncle Wang and cherish the memory of my grandmother." ”

Zhu Gaosui smiled: "It's exactly what I want." ”

When the subordinates saw that Zhu Gaosui and Zhu Zhanji were going to visit the garden, they knew that the uncle and nephew had something to say, and no one would get involved at this time, so they just politely sent them out of the palace, and returned to the palace to wait for them to come back.

The uncle and nephew did not ask anyone to follow, so they came to the south sea on the east side of the palace by the faint light of the lantern.

There is no one else but them, even if there are Jinyiwei in their entourage, and the undercover agents installed by Zhu Di can't hear their conversation at this time.

Zhu Gaosui exchanged pleasantries with Zhu Zhanji, asked about the current situation in the capital, and shifted the topic to the contradiction between the crown prince and the king of Han.

"It is reported that the King of Han asked his father for a guard to act as a personal guard, and the King of Han had two guards, and now there are three guards, and it will surpass the prince's brother's follower!"

Zhu Zhanji said with a smile: "Uncle Han has grievances, and he should make up for them, and my father and I can understand." ”

Zhu Gaosui asked: "The prince's honor guard is greater than the prince, this is not a big ceremony, and it is also a dispute between the avenues!" ”

Zhu Zhanji laughed, in the night, Zhu Gaosui couldn't see his eyes clearly, only heard him say: "The battle of the avenue, the joke." The way of heaven and humanity are all on the side of my father, what does Uncle Han have to rely on? ”

Zhu Gaosui deliberately pretended not to understand and asked, "What is the way of heaven?" What is humanity? ”

"The emperor's grandfather was appointed by heaven, and his father inherited the blessing as the eldest son, which is the way of heaven. His father was deeply loved by civil and military officials, and respected by the people, which was humanitarian. Although Uncle Han Wang is like cooking oil on fire at this time, it can't last long, Uncle Zhao won't be unable to understand, right? ”

"The way of heaven is to make up for the deficiency ...... more than the loss"

Zhu Zhanji laughed, and the laughter suddenly stopped. "Uncle Zhao, do you think Uncle Han has the ability to make up for it?"

Hearing Zhu Zhanji's laughter, Zhu Gaosui's heart was a little hairy. And this laughter suddenly stopped, and Zhu Zhanji's cold voice came again, which made Zhu Gaosui even more shocked.

This nephew of his own is very evil!

He insisted and said, "How do you know that he doesn't have this ability?" ”

Although Zhu Zhanji cannot be regarded as a formal psychologist, his grasp of people's hearts is perfect. He saw Zhu Gaosui's weakness in heart, and said with a smile: "If Uncle Han really has this ability, why didn't the emperor's grandfather seal Beiping to him?" If Uncle Han really has this ability, why did my father keep him in Jingshi all the time? All he did was self-deception. ”
