In Zhao Wangfu, Zhu Gaosui didn't sleep for a day and a night, and sent several waves of messengers who came to comfort his father, his eyes were red, he was angry for a while, relieved for a while, and excited for a while.

The performance of the eldest brother made him very relieved, did he dare to kill his brother? Don't dare, is he doing the thing? No, Zhu Gaosui also understands that his eldest brother will not kill him. But he just wants to muddy the waters.

After many years of horse career, blood and fire, he didn't want to be a prince of peace.

Before the martyrdom, his father was the king of Yan, and their brothers depended on each other for their lives, and they were hostages together in Zhu Yunwen, in order to save their father, they all sacrificed themselves and forgot themselves.

In the past, although life was difficult, there was a mother, and the family was happy.

Later, my father became the emperor, and this family was different. Brothers gather less and leave more, the eldest brother soaks with those Wenchen every day, and the second brother thinks about robbing the prince all day long.

I just wanted to enjoy it more, so I was blamed by my father here and disciplined there. The more time passes, the more I look like a transparent person.

Thinking of this, he was unhappy and had thousands of grievances. The eldest brother is the prince, the second brother is fighting for the prince, what about me, what is there, even the name in the Beizhen Mansion Division, Jinyiwei can't be transferred at will.

Now, my father has come to appease me many times, hum, why, why do you have to make peace with my eldest brother when you comfort me, when you lock me up, do you take my feelings into account?

Zhu Gaosui clenched his hands into fists, and the corners of his mouth showed a relieved smile, and at this moment, there was a report from outside the door, and Yuan Bin, the Jinyi guard, led Chen Yuan to see him.

"It's all here, and what else is going to be reported, bring it in."

"Look."

The guards brought stools.

"The grass people (subordinates) don't dare." Chen Yuan and Yuan Bin said busily.

King Zhao said: "You are all the king's henchmen, let you sit and sit, don't have so many rules." ”

Chen Yuan expressed doubts in his heart, when did the previous King Zhao babble and smuggle, when did he become a corporal of Lixian.

King Zhao saw Chen Yuan sit down, and said: "Chen Yuan, I am very happy that you defend the second brother, to tell you the truth, I can't get used to the eldest brother, when Jing was difficult, the second brother and I accompanied my father, and after four years of birth and death, my father liked the second brother even more." The generals are more convinced of us, even the emperor's relatives and heroes, except for me, who was born later than my eldest brother, which one of us is not better than him. ”

"In the fourth year of Jingjing, it is we who were born and died with our father! It is also us who have led troops to save my father and the emperor several times! But in this world, it's the eldest brother's ......" Zhu Gaosui slapped the table, very unwilling.

Chen Yuan observed his words and deeds, and shook his head secretly, you said this to me in your heart, and it proves that you have no one to use, in the early years of Yongle, if the King of Han was a corporal of Lixian, he really had a chance, but he was proud of his merits, and he had already offended the military generals of Wenchen, what is the use of saying these now.

Chen Yuan suddenly understood, they were also brothers, why King Zhao preferred King Han, because they were born and died together. King Han, like Zhu Di, likes to solve problems by force, and King Zhao is the same, to put it bluntly, they smell the same.

Zhu Gaosui was born weak in terms of the throne, first, he did not have the advantage of Zhu Gaochi's innate eldest son, and second, he did not have the influence of the Han King on the military generals of Wenchen, so he could only choose one person to stand in line.

So, the second brother who smells like each other became his choice.

"The day before yesterday, I was assassinated."

"Ah, my lord, have you ever been?" Chen Yuan pretended to be surprised and pretended to be concerned.

Zhu Gaosui loosened his muscles and bones, creaked, and proudly: "Hmph, just a few thieves, how can I endure it?" ”

"The prince bravely crowned the three armies, and the grass people admired it."

After eating a sycophant, King Zhao felt comfortable and hummed: "You don't know, the assassin used a weapon in the palace, hum, I went to my father and made a fuss in front of my father that night, hehe, I asked my eldest brother to kill me with a sword in front of the old man, you can imagine that the eldest brother's face at that time was green, and the sword was unstable, haha, it was really relieving." ”

King Zhao didn't have any shelf today, and he spoke like a homely thing, so you can imagine how aggrieved he was before.

"The old man sent a few waves of people to appease me today, hmph, just send me away, when I am a three-year-old child."

"Chen Yuan, you are resourceful, even the old man is impressed by you. When I sent you and Kuang Yu to Shaanxi, the ministers talked about it inexplicably, as far as I know, the old man has high expectations for you, and you have lived up to expectations and caught those old foxes. To be honest, I also oppose the second brother like this, the people of Yizhou, when Jing was martyred, Nanjing was full of blood, vividly, if you want to kill, you have to be a real man to kill the enemy, what is it to kill the unarmed people, if the second brother is by my side, I can beat him immediately. ”

"Anyway, if you hadn't burned the letter in the end, the second brother would have to let the old man cut it, and the old man would be ruthless."

"When I gave you the general flag, it was a condescending talent, or you should be a hundred households. The old man manages me very well, and the ones who can handle it are petty officials like thousands of households. ”

Chen Yuan was very touched in his heart, to be honest, it was impossible for him to be unhappy with these successive official titles. Jinyi Wei Baihu is an official position of the sixth grade, because he directly obeys the emperor's orders, and his power is not lower than that of a provincial high-ranking official.

But to put it bluntly, there are more than 100 households, and there are thousands of bosses above, Jinyiwei pays attention to absolute obedience, and the people who can contact 100 households are all big people, and he is still an errand runner.

The key is that if you reject Zhu Di's official and become Zhu Gaosui's official, isn't this a slap in the face.

Chen Yuan groaned: "Your Royal Highness is very loving, Chen Yuan remembers it in his heart, but after all, the matter of the Han King, the less people know about it, the better. As for the grass people, there may be some slight achievements, and His Majesty has already appreciated them. ”

Zhu Gaosui interrupted impatiently: "Just a few acres of land, what kind of reward is it, and my father is also stingy." ”

You are the prince, a few acres of fertile land is nothing. But in the eyes of the people, every piece of land is the root of life, Chen Yuan smiled bitterly: "Lord, Your Majesty has already rewarded it, what reason does the prince use to reward the grass people, is it because the grass people burned the letters, this is Your Majesty's heart disease, the prince loves and rewards, and the grass people are already very content." Things are just going well in the palace of the prince Shuntian, and there can be no extraneous branches. ”

Zhu Gaosui reacted, yes, what reason to reward him, he was really anxious. He has always been a thorn in the side of hundreds of civil and military officials, and suddenly rewarded a hundred households, I don't know if those guys will chatter in the Jinluan Palace. The old man of the palace who was obedient to the sky only agreed, and the hundred officials shut up, and they really couldn't get out of the basket anymore.

Zhu Gaosui was embarrassed: "In this way, I have wronged you." ”

Chen Yuan said seriously: "Doing things for the prince, the grass people don't feel wronged. ”

"Okay." Zhu Gaosui's face was full of red, except for a few minions, for a long time, no one with insight showed loyalty to him, he said happily, "Okay, this king really didn't see the wrong person." ”

"The eldest brother has Yang Shiqi and Xia Yuanji, who are old and pedantic, this Wang Wu has Yuan Bin, and Wen has you Chen Yuan, and he doesn't want to ride on my head every day." The more Zhu Gaosui spoke, the more excited he became.

Chen Yuan smiled bitterly, Yang Shiqi and Xia Yuanji are both old ministers of Yongle, full of poetry and books, and have a strategic mind, how can we compare with them. Don't you be naïve to think that Yuan Bin and I can fight with the old ministers who have been entrenched in the court for decades? It's child's play.

He didn't think much about it, but he heard Zhu Gaosui say again: "You do things for this king, this king will not treat you badly, you talk about the assassination, what should this king do next?" ”
