241. The title of Yuan'er

If you tell Zhu Yuanzhang to guard against Zhu Di, what will be the consequences?

This knot has been entangled with me since I learned that Ah Ping is Zhu Yunwen, and I have been hesitant and indecisive, always trying to have both, but I am afraid that if I hesitate any longer, with Zhu Yuanzhang's death, I will really step closer to the footprints of history.

Because Zhu Yuanzhang is the only person who can restrain Zhu Di, no one in the world can suppress him without him.

I pondered here, Zhu Yuanzhang was also thoughtful after listening to what I said, and only said after half a sound: "You are right, I should let go of Ping'er, when I can still control the government, even if there is a mistake, there is still a chance to redeem it; Otherwise, if I go, it will be irreparable to make a mistake, and I have to think about it. ”

After much hesitation, I still asked the question: "Can you ask why you insist on letting Ah Ping inherit the throne?" You have so many brave and resourceful sons, not to say that they are necessarily better than Ah Ping, but they are certainly more experienced than Ah Ping in military affairs. ”

I didn't explicitly refer to Zhu Di, I wanted to find out what Zhu Yuanzhang's tone and intentions were.

Zhu Yuanzhang squinted slightly after hearing what I said, seeing that there was more heaviness in my gaze, which made me extremely uneasy, he should not be able to see my motives. After he rolled his gaze, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, the aura of the old emperor's face was as heavy as it was when I first saw him.

I only heard him say: "No wonder Ping'er has a soft spot for you, I'm afraid that only you will ask such questions." Ping'er's father is my eldest son, and it should be passed on to his father, but his father died at an early age, and this was passed on to Ping'er. This rule is made by me, if even I can't keep it, how can it be continued for future generations? I think that the previous dynasty did not set up this rule, so that in order to fight for the throne, brothers fought against each other, and such a thing would never happen in my Ming Dynasty. ”

With sadness in his heart, the old man thought that setting such a rule would put an end to the struggle for the throne, but he didn't know that in the future, this dynasty would not only stage fratricide between brothers, but also fratricidal uncle and nephew.

Gritted his teeth and let it out: "But have you ever thought that Ruo Aping's ability is really not enough to be qualified for the position of emperor, and his uncles can obey him?" ”

But I heard him reply: "That's why I arranged for Ping'er Huang Zicheng, Qi Tai and Fang Xiaoru and others to assist him, and also secretly ordered Princess Ningguo's concubine to assist Xinjun in the future." In addition, why do you insist on letting Ping'er drive the expedition on my behalf on this expedition? In addition to allowing him to have military exploits to deter the Quartet, he can also get the support of the fourth child. Among my godsons, the fourth is the most similar to me, Ping'er has the support of the fourth child, and the rest of the vassal kings dare not have two hearts. ”

After this heart-to-heart conversation, I dispelled the idea of proposing Zhu Di. Because I have foreseen that even if I put it forward, Zhu Yuanzhang will not be able to listen to it, he has already preconceived that Zhu Di's son is on his side, and after his death, not only will he not have two hearts, but he will also be a royalist, and he will honestly support Ah Ping, who will pass on the throne.

And if I put it bluntly, I'm afraid this very suspicious person will be except for me! They will think that I am sowing discord, and they will also think that I am a stumbling block to the road of Emperor Aping.

An emperor has broken his heart for the world and worked hard for his descendants, but he has never really understood his son, nor has he ever really understood his grandson. That's the real sadness.

didn't speak again, the afternoon sun hit the body warmly, but it couldn't warm the heart. I always thought that there was a hole in my heart, and the hole was filled with water, and as the hole got bigger and colder, it gradually became a frozen lake.

Zhu Yuanzhang was afraid that he was tired, so after closing his eyes for a while, he breathed a little heavily, snorted and fell asleep. When Yun Gu heard the sound, I gestured to her and asked her to hold a thin quilt again, and lightly covered him on his body and sat next to him.

It was the sound of laughter that came into my ears that I woke up slowly, and when I opened my eyes, it was a blue sky, and I was stunned for a moment before I came to my senses and realized that I was sleeping in the Orchid Garden. Sitting up straight, I saw the long figure bathed in the sun, and the silhouette of a white shirt was particularly handsome. In front of him, Xiao Yuan'er staggered and trotted, chasing and playing with Changning.

I turned my head and found that I had moved to the recliner at some point, and Zhu Yuanzhang, who was supposed to be sleeping on the recliner, was no longer there, and even the thin quilt that had covered him before was on me, and the legs were covered with blankets.

As soon as I sat up, I turned my head, and when my eyes swept over my body, I walked up, and looked down at me when I got closer: "Awake?" I pulled down the quilt and nodded my head and asked, "Where is your imperial grandfather?" Have you gone back to the palace? ”

"Well, I woke up not long ago, and told Xiao Qi not to wake you up."

I wanted to ask who moved me to the recliner, but I just thought about it, who else could there be? It can't be said that Zhu Yuanzhang ordered Yan Qi and Yun Gu to move me, if I didn't wake up even tossing like that, I would have slept too deeply.

When it was getting dark, Yan Qi and Yun Gu came out of the stove room with food, and when they saw that the portion was more than before, it was more than before. Sure enough, when he entered the room and sat down, someone also sat down honestly and unceremoniously, except for me, the rest of the people were very happy, and Yan Qi kept serving vegetables to him.

After a meal, I never said a word.

Yun Gu packed up the dishes and chopsticks and wanted to take Yuan'er to take a bath, but Yuan'er actually asked Ah Ping to go too, so Yun Gu was embarrassed and looked back at me for help. Seeing this, I calmly ordered: "Just give Yuan'er to His Highness, Changning, can you go and help?" ”

Changning, who was named by me, nodded ignorantly, and Xiao Yuan'er smiled when she heard that Changning was also going, and wanted to grab Changning's hand. Qingping's eyes glanced at me, and without saying anything, he hugged Yuan'er and walked to the bathroom.

After seeing the figure disappear at the door, I turned around and said to Yun Gu next to me: "I'll go back to the house and sleep first, and when Yuan'er comes out of the shower, you can help go to the east room to make a bed, and they will sleep in that room tonight." After explaining, I didn't look at her expression, so I walked into the house and closed the door.

But I slept all afternoon before, and I had to fall asleep again immediately at night, and I didn't feel sleepy at all when I closed my eyes, but I couldn't help but prick up my ears to listen to the movement outside. In the dead of night, I could hear Xiao Yuan'er's joyful voice after the bathroom door opened, and the voice came from far and near towards the main house, and was stopped by Yun Gu to convey my words.

I couldn't hear the man's voice, but I heard the voice drifting away again, and I thought it was really going to the east house.

I can't tell what the taste in my heart is, the joy that should have been fulfilled but it seems to be empty, how can there be half a point of joy?

Especially when there was no movement outside, I felt that the silence was a little difficult, and I couldn't sleep for a long time, but the footsteps outside started again and attracted my attention. I felt that I was bored, and I was actually analyzing and judging who the footsteps were, it shouldn't be Yan Qi's, he was learning martial arts, and Yun Gu was heavy.

After analyzing and finding that the footsteps had come to the door, after a pause, he heard Xiao Yuan'er's voice outside the door: "Lan, Lan, Lan-" He shouted and knocked on the door, if it was someone else, I could still pretend to be asleep, but I heard that this kid could ignore it, so he had to raise his voice and ask: "What's wrong Yuan'er?" ”

"I'm afraid, I'm afraid."

Fear? What are you afraid of? His father? Probably not, isn't it still noisy to go together when you take a shower?

After hesitating, I heard someone's voice: "Lan, open the door, Yuan'er refuses to sleep in a strange place, saying that he is afraid." ”

In the end, I reluctantly opened the door, and Yuan'er crashed into the crook of my leg and hugged me and raised my head and shouted: "Hei Hei, I'm afraid." "The simple statement roughly gave me an idea of what the situation was, and I knew that the person in front of me must have played a trick and used Yuan'er to come back and knock on the door.

I picked Yuan'er up and half-pushed the door away, leaving him outside: "Then let Yuan'er sleep here, you can sleep early." As soon as the words fell, he was about to close the door, but he blocked it with his hand, looked at me with a slight raised eyebrow, and said, "Don't take this to cross the river and tear down the bridge." ”

lowered his eyes and calmly replied: "There is no bridge built on the river, how can you cross the river and tear down the bridge?" ”

The river that separates me from him has not yet been bridged to cross it. But he said, "Okay, then I'll fill the river directly." As soon as he exerted his strength, he squeezed in and closed it with his hand.

I couldn't drive it away, so I turned around and carried Yuan'er to the side of the bed and put him down, scratched his nose lightly before walking to the door, "Since that's the case, then you can sleep in this room." "I don't care if he insists on staying.

But as soon as my hand touched the door, I was held from behind, and my body was enclosed in that familiar breath, and I didn't look back, waiting for him to speak. But in the silence, only Xiao Yuan'er shouted while patting the bed board: "Daddy, Lan, come, come." ”

The voice behind him is not very clear, and I don't know whether it is "Lan" or "come", but his name for Ah Ping surprised me. As far as I know, they will not use such a civilian title in the royal circle, including Ah Ping, who also called the late Zhu Biao as "father". As if I knew what I was thinking, I heard him say, "I taught him to call Daddy." ”

I turned my head, "It's always going to be changed in the future." ”

When he ascends to the throne of God, how can he still let Yuan'er be called like this, even if he wants to, the official will come to the sermon.

Sometimes seeing that the emperor has a lot of power, but in fact he is subject to a lot of constraints, it is not a position where he can do whatever he wants. If an emperor insists on going his own way, he will lose the support of the people, and it will not last long.
