Chu Yun even felt for a moment that he must have met a fake Xuande, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like an emperor should say it, are you supporting Gu?

Even if it is to support the orphan, it will not be Chu Yun's turn, whether it is seniority or ability, it is not enough to support the prince to stabilize the society.

The ability mentioned here refers to Chu Yun's powerful position, he has no military power in his hands, and he has not formed his own circle in the imperial court, even if he has potential, it is not of much use now.

However, Chu Yun can be sure that Xuande is not pretended by others, he has "fiery eyes", except for Xia Ying, no one else can hide.

Chu Yun rightly showed his shock and panic, and said, "Your Majesty, this ......"

He looked so shocked that he couldn't speak, but Xuande didn't look at him, maybe he was a little uncomfortable with his head sideways, so he withdrew his gaze, looked at Fang Liang with lost eyes, and said: "After all, mortals can't avoid birth, old age, sickness and death, I only hate, and I can't see the military flag of Great Xia planted in the royal court of Yan Kingdom." If I say this long-cherished wish, only the crown prince will think that my sons will fulfill it for me. ”

Chu Yun: "......"

I can't answer this, Xuande already knows that his time is running out, and Chu Yun is not good at slapping his beard anymore, saying that he can still live a long life, if he really says so, Xuande will probably cut him a few times impatiently. However, he took it......

If you agree with Xuande, wouldn't it be disrespectful to several other princes, and if you don't agree, it will not give Xuande face. Moreover, although Chu Yun inevitably got involved in royal affairs, he couldn't talk nonsense, especially in front of the emperor.

Xuande saw that Chu Yun was silent, and he also knew what Chu Yun was worried about, so he said, "Chu Yun, do you know why I said that?" ”

Chu Yun: "......"

：“”

This forced Chu Yun to speak, Chu Yun was helpless, so he had to say weakly: "The minister thinks it's because of the filial piety of His Royal Highness the Prince?" ”

"Filial piety, right?" Xuande didn't bother to sell it, and said bluntly: "My sons, the second and third are too scheming, but the second child has no kingly style, he only knows how to restrain his edge, and has the ambition to be an emperor, it's not a shameful thing, why bother to hide it, like a gutless rat!" ”

Chu Yun: "......"

The big guy begged to be spared, I really don't want to talk to you about this terrible thing, in a word, it's going to be a big thing.

Xuande didn't care about Chu Yun's pain in his heart, and after commenting on the second prince, he began to comment on the third prince.

"The third child is ambitious and capable, smart since he was a child, has the style of a gentleman, has the bearing of a king, and can be polite and virtuous, he is really the best candidate for the emperor."

When Xuande said this, Chu Yun knew that in Xuande's heart, he was so optimistic about the three princes, but Chu Yun knew that what he said earlier was false, and what he said in the back was the key.

Sure enough, Xuande continued: "However, he pays too much attention to management, but he doesn't know that everything in the world has gains and losses, if I hand over the throne to him, he will definitely feel that the northern expedition will hurt the people and money, and damage the national strength, it is better to sign a contract and not invade each other." However, born in sorrow and died in peace, if Great Xia is in peace, if the Northern Yan invades on another day, how can Great Xia, who is accustomed to comfort, be the enemy? Therefore, the third child cannot inherit the unification. ”

Chu Yun: "......"

In addition to the embarrassed and polite smile, Chu Yun didn't know what to do, and he wanted to say to Xuande: "These things, you should go to a few pavilion elders to talk to......"

After commenting on the three princes, Xuande still didn't stop, talking about the four princes.

"The fourth child is arrogant, Wen Taowu is strategic, compared to his brothers, they are not as good, just be a prince, it is destined to be difficult to achieve great things."

After Xuande commented, Chu Yun was going to kneel for him, and he didn't understand what Xuande was doing at all, but these words, when they reached the ears of others, the capital was going to be in chaos, and several princes were competing for the throne, Chu Yun didn't know what the situation in the capital was for the time being, but Xuande was sick like this, and it must have been inextricable.

If you let people know, Xuande has already made up his mind that the second, third, and fourth are all people who cannot inherit the unification, and those who are on the wrong side are estimated to collapse in their mentality, and they may not know what they will do.

Since ancient times, during the period of change of imperial power, it is very easy to have bloodshed, and if you stand in the wrong line, even if you are not killed, you will not escape an exile.

Chu Yun felt that it should only give Xuande a headache, because Xuande's control of the imperial court and the control of the army, even if those people made trouble, they couldn't make any waves.

Xuande is so pretentious, if Chu Yun doesn't say anything, he can't say it, if it is the first time to comment on the second prince, Chu Yun still has some scruples, and when Xuande comments that his son is difficult to achieve great things, Chu Yun can only put his scruples aside for the time being.

If he remained silent and didn't answer Xuande's words, Xuande would probably want to hammer him to death.

Since you want to say it, then be bold, anyway, Xuande also knew that he was from the prince's camp, so Chu Yun said simply: "Then what does Your Majesty think of the prince?" ”

"The crown prince is loyal, and too benevolent, he has the destiny to be an emperor, but he does not have the heart of an emperor, but if I tell him that Beiyan must be pacified, then even if he breaks his head in the future, he will fulfill what I ask of him. So, that's why I'm looking for you. ”

Xuande suddenly stared at Chu Yun with burning eyes, Chu Yun didn't dare to look at him, lowered his head, and said, "Weichen is stupid, please make it clear to Your Majesty." ”

"What else can it be, naturally it is to assist the prince and be a good emperor. But first, you have to make sure that the crown prince can ascend to the throne safely. ”

Xuande said, and suddenly said, "Xiao Xiangzi." ”

"The slave is here."

An old voice suddenly sounded in the hall, which frightened Chu Yun, when Xuande was talking to Chu Yun, but he sent everyone out, and suddenly a eunuch appeared, Chu Yun was like a ghost.

I don't know when this person appeared, where he was hiding before, and it's no different from a ghost.

Chu Yun was only startled when this eunuch appeared, and then glanced at it lightly, and when he saw that this person's surname was Zhao, he didn't look at it.

Xuande said: "In the future, you will obey Chu Yun's dispatch, and everything will be up to him." ”

"Yes."

Before Chu Yun could react, Xuande stuffed someone into his hand, Chu Yun didn't know what this person was doing!

"Gonggong Zhao is my most confidant, he is in charge of the shadows all over the palace and the capital, this power will be yours in the future."

Xuande said it easily, but Chu Yun's scalp was numb, and it was definitely not a good thing to suddenly smash a pie, but Chu Yun was very knowledgeable and didn't say anything to refuse.

Knowing that Xuande had another hidden force in his hands, and he knew so many things, if he refused, he would simply look for death, Chu Yun simply asked: "Dare to ask Your Majesty, what do you want Weichen to do?" ”

"If only I had such a good time." Xuande complained about Chu Yun before answering his question: "I want you, don't help the prince do anything, just treat it as a tempering of the prince." Zhao Gonggong has my edict in his hand, if you can't do anything, you can stand up and help the crown prince succeed to the throne, before that, you don't interfere in the confrontation between the prince and others. ”

Chu Yun: "......"

Is it still possible to do this?

Although Xuande said it clearly, Chu Yun couldn't understand it even more. This step does not need Chu Yun to do at all, as long as Xuande and Zhao Gonggong arrange it, Chu Yun's existence is meaningless.

Therefore, Xuande's main purpose is not to let Chu Yun not participate in this political struggle?

Chu Yun felt that he had guessed half of the answer.

"What, do you promise?"

Seeing that Chu Yun was silent, Xuande asked again, and Chu Yun had no choice but to say, "Weichen takes the order." ”

There are some things that can't be resisted, even if he thinks that Xuande has something in his mind, but Chu Yun has no other choice than to obey the order, and all other options are a dead end.

Xuande and Chu Yun have said so much, if Chu Yun is still ignorant, it is really the way to die.

Speaking of this, the matter was over, Xuande asked Chu Yun to leave, and Chu Yun also walked away.

From beginning to end, Xuande didn't ask about the Seven Princes, nor did he ask Chu Yun what happened during this time.

Although Chu Yun said a lot in the letter, it was very detailed, but did you believe it when he said it, and he didn't ask tentatively.

Chu Yun felt that his mental preparations were all in vain.

When he returned home, Chu Yun acted as if he didn't know anything and nothing had happened.

Xuande stopped him, just to add a shackle, Chu Yun would even wonder in his heart if Xuande had someone else he valued, so he deliberately set him up.

After all, Xuande said that Zhao Gonggong would listen to Chu Yun in the future, but Chu Yun didn't know how to contact this Zhao Gonggong, and how to talk about giving orders? Therefore, even if the power in the hands of this Zhao Gonggong is all over Great Xia, more extensive than the Shadow Guard, so what?

Everything was a blank check, and Chu Yun couldn't grasp it in his hands.

However, the restrictions given to Chu Yun are really there, and Chu Yun has no doubt that if he agrees to Xuande, but secretly helps Zhao Gou, it is estimated that the consequences will be very serious.

At least Xuande won't let him go.

The worst result is that Xuande actually has another choice in his heart, so those comments are all fooling Chu Yun.

No matter how serious it is, it seems a bit like a fake.

However, Chu Yun suddenly thought of another possibility.

Xuande, perhaps paving the way for Zhao Gou and setting the framework for Chu Yun in advance.

A very realistic thing, in the battle for succession, Chu Yun can't help Zhao Gou, if Zhao Gou succeeds in ascending to the throne with the help of some of his subordinates, then Chu Yun will not have the skill of following the dragon, and his status in the prince's camp will naturally be lower, and he will not become a powerful minister in the future.

If Zhao Gou can't play with other princes, in the end, Chu Yun took Zhao Gonggong to make a move and supported Zhao Gou to take the throne, then he has the merit of following the dragon?

It doesn't exist, if there is really that kind of situation, it is estimated that Zhao Gou's opinion of Chu Yun will be even worse.

Why didn't you show it sooner when you have the power to turn things upside down?

So, no matter what, Chu Yun was trapped.

But what can he do?

He's desperate too.

Moreover, even if you see through these, you can't make changes, you can only follow the framework delineated by Xuande.

Impotence.

Sometimes, wisdom is useless in the face of power, especially the person with power, and the wisdom is not low.

Chu Yun would not be discouraged and disappointed because he had figured out these two possible ideas of Xuande.

In fact, it's good to stay at home, accompany your wife and children, and don't go outside to fight and kill.

However, there is still information that should be available.

When he learned that Wu Jingxian had become the prince's staff, took Chu Yun's place, and became the chief strategist, Chu Yun knew that Xuande should want to restrict him.

In that case, Wu Jingxian may be his biggest enemy in the future.

Then again, Wu Jingxian is such an upright person, when he meets Zhao Gou, an iron-headed baby, and when combined, can he really fight against others, Chu Yun was very worried.

It's just that he never brings his worries home. When Yun'er returned home, when Yun'er asked him what the emperor told him to do, Chu Yun just said that Xuande was talking to him, after all, they met again after a long absence.

Chu Yun didn't say anything important.

Wu Yun'er said again: "The prince's cousin came just now and said let's go to the mansion for a gathering at night." ”

Chu Yun estimated that Zhao Gou should also call him at this time, but Chu Yun also had a headache, Xuande didn't let himself help Zhao Gou, Chu Yun could only do it, and if he went to the banquet, Zhao Gou would definitely say that she would join again.

How can you refuse so that you don't hurt Zhao Gou?

Pain in the skull.

In the evening, Chu Yun took Wu Yun'er and Chu Shu to the Prince's Mansion together, accompanied by a large group of people, such as the nurse who fed Chu Shu, he must take it.

Yun'er is trying to learn to be a good mother, so for Chu Shu, she is watching it all the time, and the maternal brilliance exuded by Wu Yun'er makes Chu Yun a little envious of her son.

A lifelong enemy, needless to say.

When he came to the prince's mansion, the banquet had not yet started, but there were already some people here, and Chu Yun found out that the prince had not only invited him and Wu Yun'er, but also Wu Jingxian and Yang Guang, who were also here.

Seeing Chu Yun and his wife, the prince came over very enthusiastically, but he didn't talk to Chu Yun, just looked at Chu Shu in Wu Yun'er's arms, and he looked very fond.

Yan Yi, who happened to come over, happened to see this scene, her eyes couldn't help but dim a little, and she heard Zhao Gou saying to Chu Shu: "Shushu, are you happy to see your cousin?" ”

He had been to Chu Yun's house during the day, so he knew the name of Chu Yun's son, and it was only when Zhao Gou called him that Chu Yun suddenly felt that something was wrong.

It's a good name, but it's called......

Uncle?
