The bright yellow roof of the temple of the body. A young man with a slender figure, high eyebrow bones, a cold appearance, and a hawkish look and a wolf's appearance, was lying on the roof of the main hall with Erlang's legs crossed at this time.

The name of the palace is the emperor's reminder to strengthen one's self-cultivation, and it is one of the three halls in front of the palace.

It is the place where the emperor changed his court clothes and established the queen and the crown prince. The emperor's birthday and festivals are also celebrated in this hall.

In such an important place, this young man was not afraid at all, but lay directly on the roof, in this palace, only the grandson Zhu Zhanji dared to do this.

There was a circle of brocade guards and eunuchs under the palace, and they didn't dare to make a noise, but they only dared to arrange many people in the front and back to prevent His Highness from stumbling and falling down.

Yu Xian was about to cry in a hurry, and persuaded in a suppressed voice: "Your Highness, come down quickly, the emperor will know in a while, and he will beat the slave board again." ”

"It's not to deliberately let the emperor see it, I haven't come up yet. But it's cold today! Zhu Zhanji didn't pay attention to it, but just looked at the movement on the side of the Fengtian Hall through the Huagai Palace.

He dared to climb to the roof of the Jinshen Temple, but he did not dare to climb to the roof of the Fengtian Temple no matter what. climbed on the roof of the Jinshen Palace, at most Zhu Di scolded two nonsense, if he dared to go to the roof of the Fengtian Palace, even if he was the most favored imperial grandson, he would be punished.

It was a cold winter wax moon, and it could not be said that the dripping water turned into ice, but the small river in the palace was also frozen, and the feeling of lying on the roof was really a little uncomfortable.

In the distance, the drum beat came from the drum tower to tell the time, and it was already noon. However, after a while, I saw the emperor's honor guard flag coming from the Fengtian Palace.

Today, the DPRK has finally arranged all the work of the Northern Expedition in February next year. Things were straightened out, and Zhu Di's spirit was much lighter.

As soon as he went down to the court, he heard Li Qian, the eunuch of the governor's eunuch, whispering: "Your Majesty, the grandson is in the room again......"

"This little monkey...... What is it for this time? ”

In September, in order to release his teacher Xie Jin from prison, Zhu Zhanji went to the roof once, but he did not scare the eunuchs in the palace to death at that time.

The specifications of the main halls in the palace are customized, and most of the main halls are more than ten meters high. Ordinary people use ladders, and they are terrified when they climb up, but Taisun doesn't need anything, and he goes to the roof in a few steps.

At that time, Zhu Di was also startled, and in order to coax him to come down quickly, he agreed to release Xie Jin.

"Slaves don't know ......"

"Check it out."

Seeing Zhu Di coming over, he didn't lie there anymore, stood up and moved his body, and slipped from the roof to the eaves like a slide.

The people below were all terrified, even at the eaves, it was nearly two feet high from the ground. The ground here is all blue bricks, and bluestone is the base.

If you fall, you will hurt your muscles and bones, and you will lose your life.

Xuan Zhen and Yi Qingzi flew under the eaves, and they were fully prepared, even if they were stoned to death, they were better than Taisun You.

But Zhu Zhanji was not afraid at all, when he was about to reach the eaves, his feet changed from straight to horizontal, rubbed back and forth twice, and stood firm at the eaves.

Zhu Di almost didn't catch his breath, and rebuked loudly: "Ridiculous." The son of a daughter can't sit down, you are the future monarch of the Ming Dynasty, how can you easily get into danger. ”

Zhu Zhanji laughed loudly: "Grandpa, I am naturally sure, how can I hurt myself because of this matter." ”

The old Zhu family is actually very humane, not a formal occasion, rarely used me, lonely, like ordinary families, often called grandfather and grandson.

"Why are you on the roof again? You don't have a teacher to save this time, do you? ”

"How could my grandson be abolished because of his personal interests, last time I just saw that the teacher was wronged, so I just helped him. Get out of the way ......."

The people below were even more nervous, and last time Zhu Zhanji jumped from the top of the house at once, scaring Zhu Di enough.

As a result, Zhu Zhanji was fine and was not punished, but Zhu Zhanji's personal eunuch Yu Xian was beaten with 20 boards.

However, with the experience of the last time, Zhu Di would not be as worried as last time, he waved his hand, and the people below immediately gave up a large open space.

Zhu Zhanji jumped down from above, bowed slightly when he landed, tossed forward, and stood firmly on the ground.

Although it was the second time he had jumped so easily, most of the guards were still stunned.

It's a real cornice!

patting the soil on his body, Zhu Zhanji came to Zhu Di casually, and said with a smile: "Grandpa, has the plan for the Northern Expedition been decided?" ”

Zhu Di saw that he was fine, snorted and turned to leave, and before leaving, he pointed at Yu Xian and ordered: "If you don't supervise the grandson effectively, hit the top ten boards." ”

Yu Xian was aggrieved in his heart, but he didn't dare to have any dissatisfaction. Last time, the 20 boards became the top 10 boards this time, and the punishment was light!

Is it going to be a big board next time...... Phew, bah, good luck, it's best for the grandson to stop going to the room next time.

Zhu Zhanji squeezed his eyes at Yu Xian, and followed behind Zhu Di with a smile. "Grandpa, the army is about to leave, and my two hundred young troops are ready to serve at any time."

Zhu Di didn't reply and said: "I have ordered your father to supervise the country, you will assist your father in the capital!" ”

Zhu Zhanji was a little dumbfounded, and said flatteringly: "Grandpa watched the Young Army's performance last time, didn't he agree to let them act as scouts?" ”

Zhu Di snorted and said: "You, the commander of the army, regard military aircraft as child's play, how to win the trust of people." ”

Zhu Zhanji understood, this was deliberately beating himself. So at this time, he no longer dwelled on this topic, and said to himself: "It is reported that a group of foreigners came to Ningbo Mansion, with body odor and hairy, just enough to meet the world." ”

Zhu Di knew that this grandson was deliberately teasing himself, in this palace, since the queen went, only he could suppress this little monkey.

He was too young to take him with him last time on the Northern Expedition, and he made a fuss for a long time when he came back. Now that he's sixteen years old, he can take him to the battlefield.

Sun Xiao Ji is not afraid of the battlefield, but is eager to try, which actually makes Zhu Di very satisfied.

Entering the Jinshen Palace, Zhu Zhanji poured Zhu Di a cup of tea, and then sat down in his lower position.

Zhu Di stared at him for a long time, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt like his younger self, and the dissatisfaction in his heart dissipated.

"Tell me, what is the purpose of going to the room today? I can't tell you one or two, I can't help but beat you with a board. ”

Zhu Zhanji leaned back in the chair and said with a smile: "How could my grandson threaten grandpa with the house, I just thought about it occasionally, and I had the idea of solving the lightning and fire in the palace." So go up to the room and check one or two. ”

Over the years, because of the huge palace building and the high terrain of the main hall, every lightning and thunder is often the main object of lightning strikes.

In fact, it is very simple to solve this problem, that is, to install a lightning rod.

It's just that people in this era don't have this concept, and they don't dare to fight with the sky, so they have always been passive.

Zhu Di asked in surprise: "Is this serious?" ”

Zhu Zhanji said with a smile: "How can my grandson joke about this, Yongfu Palace was burned, and my grandson has been thinking about it." Yesterday, I checked the lightning strikes and injuries in various places, but I was found by my grandson to find a pattern. ”

Zhu Di was a little curious. "What pattern?"

"Lightning can not only hurt people directly, but also through objects. Wood and bricks cannot guide lightning and are often blown up, but when they encounter metal objects, they often dissipate invisibly. ”

Zhu Di never thought about this link, and couldn't help asking, "Then what do you get?" ”

"Since some things can guide lightning and some cannot, why don't we put objects that can guide lightning on things that can't. For example, in this palace hall, as long as an iron bar for lightning guidance is installed on the roof. can channel thunder into the ground. ”

Zhu Di only felt incredible. "Thunder can be controlled by man!"

Zhu Zhanji smiled: "Anyway, it won't cost much, so let my grandson try it." If it works, my Daming Palace will not be disturbed by thunder and lightning in the future. ”

"If it is useful, those temples and Taoist towers will also be protected from thunder and lightning in the future."

Zhu Zhanji pursed his lips and did not speak. The people of this era are very obsessed with Shinto things, and it is not something that he can easily reverse.

It is more difficult to transform the mind than to transform the country.

Even 600 years later, the impact of religion on the world is still staggering, let alone today.

The eunuchs entered the hall with lunch, and while Zhu Zhanji was eating, he told Zhu Di about the lightning strikes in various places he had investigated, and told these as stories, so that Zhu Di also listened to them with relish.

After accompanying Zhu Di to finish lunch, it is now a cold winter wax moon, the days are short and the nights are long, so Zhu Di does not take a lunch break.

Zhu Zhanji accompanied him and chatted about the Northern Expedition for a while, and the right to relieve his boredom was to go to the West Palace to deal with state affairs, and then he said goodbye and left.

As his biggest support in this world, Zhu Zhanji used to be close to Empress Xu, and after Empress Xu died in the fifth year of Yongle, Zhu Zhanji focused on getting along with Zhu Di.

Queen Xu died, Zhu Di was depressed for a long time, and Zhu Zhanji accompanied him to eat every day, which also developed a habit.

No matter how busy they are, as long as the two of them are in the palace, they will definitely eat together.

Even if Zhu Di invited ministers and foreign guests, Zhu Zhanji also accompanied him.

The power of habit is powerful, and no matter how powerful Zhu Gaoxu is now, it can't compare to Zhu Zhanji's status in Zhu Di's mind.

Even his cheap father, the crown prince Zhu Gaochi, often relies on him to maintain the relationship with Zhu Di.

However, Zhu Zhanji knew that he was still immature to contact the ministers, so except for the nobles, relatives, and eunuchs, these people could be contacted casually, and the ministers were absolutely not allowed to contact.

Like his teacher, why Xie Jin was imprisoned in Jinyiwei, it was not because he came to the capital to report to work during his tenure as a foreign minister. Zhu Di was on the first Northern Expedition at that time, and he was not in Yingtian, so Xie Jin reported to Zhu Gaochi who was in charge of the country.

Although he is the crown prince, although he is the prisoner of the country, the power of the emperor is absolutely not allowed to be touched, even if you are the heir.

Because of this trivial matter, Zhu Gaochi was reprimanded, and Xie Jin was imprisoned.

If Zhu Zhanji hadn't been rescued by the teacher's affection, he would have been stuffed into a snowdrift by Ji Gang and frozen to death.

Therefore, he has always gotten along with Zhu Di with the affection of his grandson, so that the love between his grandson and grandson is greater than that of the emperor and his grandson, and sometimes even if he deliberately makes him angry, he will feel warm afterwards.

Zhou is good at manipulating people's hearts in modern times, and only needs a little trickery, and he can also mix in ancient times.
