Haven't seen ...... in 20 years

Zhu Biao tried his best to calm the shock in his heart.

After calming down, his heart was sour, and he read the pain and guilt of many years from the expressions of his father and mother.

One can imagine their indebtedness to Zhu Tong......

"Father, then why don't you take the imperial brother back, our family is reunited, the imperial brother must have suffered a lot outside for so many years, the son can't bear to look at the queen mother and worry, and then see the imperial brother alone outside!"

"Erchen begs his father to allow Erchen to go and fetch the imperial brother back."

Zhu Biao knelt on the ground as he spoke, and asked Zhu Yuanzhang for his life, he has been cared for by his father and mother since he was a child, and has been doted on by everyone.

At this time, when he learned that his royal brother was still taking risks to take the imperial list for the sake of life, he felt even more uncomfortable, full of guilt! With anticipation!

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at his son, his heart was full of relief, what he was worried about did not happen, he knew that this son was kind by nature, and his reaction at this time was by no means pretended, Zhu Yuanzhang slowly leaned down and held Zhu Biao's arms with both hands:

"Get up, my father understands your intentions, but the situation is not as simple as you think, and you must understand the reason."

Zhu Biao was instantly awakened by Zhu Yuanzhang's words, it turned out that the position of the crown prince was too involved, which really embarrassed his father, and he originally set the system of inheriting the throne for his eldest son, which must not be changed.

This is also the father of the emperor in order to avoid the tragedy of the brother wall as recorded in the history books, since the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty has set this national policy, if the emperor and brother recognize each other and he did not give up the position of the prince, then this national policy will be invalid.

However, for the perpetuation of the Ming Dynasty, as a descendant of the Zhu family, I must make sacrifices, and I have no interest in the throne.

If it weren't for my father's control, I really wouldn't have been able to deal with these thorns with any certainty!

In particular, if you want to do something against your wishes, the last time you received Hu Weiyong's medicine was out of helplessness, and there were some killings that had to be done, sometimes you have to kill some innocent people in order to take care of the overall situation, and I really can't bear to kill those innocent people every time!

Now that there is a real eldest son of the emperor, he can justifiably return the position of the crown prince that originally belonged to the imperial brother to the imperial brother, and he can do what he likes.

If the royal brother needs me to contribute, then I will assist him well, if he can deal with the affairs of the court himself, I will be a chic king of Fan.

"Father, the son is willing to return the crown prince to the imperial brother! In order to ensure that my Ming dynasty is forever. Zhu Biao looked at Zhu Yuanzhang sincerely and said.

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little unexpected,

"Biao'er, don't you be wronged like this!"

Although he knows that Biao'er is benevolent and virtuous, he is not so humble, right? After all, he is the position of the future prince, and since ancient times, countless people have longed for it, and countless people have fought for it, so is he not tempted at all?

"Back to my father, in fact, my sons also have selfish intentions!"

Zhu Biao said in a low voice, he knew that his father had always expected a lot of him, so he never mentioned anything to anyone about not wanting to be the prince.

He knew his father's temper, and he was even more afraid of his father, so he never dared to show this emotion.

Now he finally has a chance to talk, but the majesty of his father still makes him tremble, and after struggling repeatedly for a long time, he finally made up his mind to vomit as fast as possible.

"Selfishness? Tell us about it. Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Biao suspiciously.

Zhu Biao paused, wiped the sweat on his head and said slowly.

"Erchen... Actually, yes... Emperor... Bit.. Not very interested! ”

As soon as the words fell, the smile on Zhu Yuanzhang's face froze instantly, his heart was like a knife, he couldn't imagine that his hard work for so many years would be exchanged for a sentence of 'not interested'.

He took great pains to teach him how to handle government affairs, how to identify the loyalty and treachery of his subjects, and how to control his ministers, and in the end, what he rewarded himself was 'not interested!' ’。

All kinds of emotions in his heart began to roll, he wanted to vent but couldn't lift his energy, there was always a force pulling him to prevent him from getting angry, but he didn't know what was going on, if he had made a move to hit Zhu Biao before, and now he just looked at his son in front of him silently.

Zhu Biao on the side looked at Zhu Yuanzhang trembling, and then lowered his head and made a look of being at his disposal, although he was the crown prince, the majesty of his father gave people a sense of oppression that was too strong, so that he had to give in.

But this time, Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, and the sense of coercion, domineering, and murderous aura on his body gradually dissipated, and then Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and said helplessly:

"That's it, that's it! Whatever you want. ”

Zhu Biao was overjoyed to see his father change like this, but his expression did not change a little, he knew that this was because of the imperial brother, and his father would re-establish the imperial brother as the crown prince, which was required by the Ming Dynasty's century-old stability plan, and it was also the path he had to choose.

"Father Xie has become a son, then let's choose a good day and an auspicious day to welcome the imperial brother back." Zhu Biao said first, he was afraid that the night would be long and dreamy, and something would happen.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Biao again, shook his head helplessly, and continued to ask:

"Biao'er, does our throne really make you so disgusted?"

Zhu Biao was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang's face cautiously, only then did he realize that he had just spoken a little recklessly, so he explained:

"Father, it is indeed difficult for the sons and daughters to take the overall situation alone, and I ask my father to forgive me."

Zhu Yuanzhang's face improved slightly, he let out a sigh of relief, and continued

"Father doesn't blame you anymore."

"As for the matter of your imperial brother, you still need to wait for the opportunity, now that the internal structure of the court has been decided, if the matter of your imperial brother is reported, it will inevitably lead to a more serious party struggle for power, and then not only will the government be unstable, but it is likely to involve the safety of your two brothers."

When Zhu Biao heard this, he nodded silently, as the crown prince, he naturally understood very well the dispute between Li Shanchang and Liu Bowen in the court, as well as the secret battle between the large and small civil ministers and military generals behind the two.

If these people were to know about this, some of them would be speculative in order to enter the center of power, and some people might try to provoke the two brothers to fight, and all kinds of guns and arrows would come one after another......

The situation will be beyond everyone's control, and there will be no regret when the time comes.

"Erchen understands, please rest assured that Erchen will never leak half a word about this matter! Everything is arranged by my father. ”

Zhu Biao swore to Zhu Yuanzhang and made a promise, and Queen Ma on the side had already regained her calm, turned around and took Zhu Biao's hand and said kindly:

"Mother's good son, no matter what happens, your two brothers will definitely support each other!"

Zhu Biao said firmly: "Please rest assured that the eldest brother is like a father, and the sons will definitely respect and love the eldest brother!" ”
