() "The emperor's reaction at that time was very unexpected by everyone,"

Dao Yan smiled slightly and said,

"The old man actually said that he asked the second prince to do this, and also said that since Wang Baobao is such a strange man, then it is better to be the uncle of the son of the Ming Emperor, so that it will become a family."

"This really seems to be the style of my father, but ...... of it"

Zhu Di said helplessly.

Dao Yan nodded,

"Yes, it's not that simple. First of all, the emperor approved this family business, which obviously expressed his intention to surrender to Wang Baobao, and at the same time threatened him. Secondly, it is also to show the Qianyuan tribe that the Ming Dynasty will not discriminate against them, so that they can return to obedience with peace of mind. ”

"And the second brother and second sister-in-law also have to pay the price,"

Zhu Di nodded and said,

"I heard the second brother say that the heirs born by the princess will never be qualified to be the sons of the world."

"And it doesn't stop there,"

Dao Yan's expression became quite serious, Dao,

"Princess Qin has always been a member of the Qianyuan royal family, and she was allowed to marry King Qin because of her use value. Now that Wang Baobao has been dead for many years, the reason why she still has a place to live is because His Royal Highness King Qin is alive. Now that even His Royal Highness King Qin has passed away, do you think she still has a chance to live, Fourth Master? ”

"But, but after all, she is still the concubine of King Qin, and she will never ......"

Speaking of this, Zhu Di stopped, because he remembered that when he was in the Qin Wangfu in Xi'an, the chamberlain who was killed by the second brother's cane, and the gossip spread at that time. No wonder the second brother was so angry at that time, it seemed that there was a force against Princess Qin in the Qin Palace, and now that the second brother died so suddenly, maybe there would be some "trumped-up" charges on her head.

"If that's the case, I'm going to go even more, after all, the second brother has asked me to take care of her......"

"Fourth master, let's do it,"

Dao Yan stared at Zhu Di with his tiger eyes,

"If you can answer a question, he won't stop you."

"What's the problem?"

Zhu Di asked in surprise.

Dao Yan is almost word by word,

"Between His Royal Highness the King of Qin's entrustment and the emperor's holy will, which will you choose? In other words, do you think that in order to protect Princess Qin and go against the emperor's will, do you think such a thing should be done? Can it be done? ”

"Father's ......"

Zhu Di really hesitated-

Yes, the last thing you can do right now is to violate your father's holy will, but what about the second brother's entrustment?

Seeing that he was hesitating, Dao Yan said again,

"Fourth master, His Royal Highness King Qin has asked you to be cautious step by step, so if he knows about it, he will definitely not let you make a wrong decision, listen to Lao Gao's persuasion, it's better not to go to Xi'an Mansion."

"Then, I'm going to let down the second brother......

Zhu Di sighed softly.

Not long after, the news about Princess Qin finally came-

On the day of King Qin's burial, the princess drank herself in front of the mausoleum and was martyred for her husband. I heard that her expression looked calm and even a little happy at that time, and she also said "Life and death go hand in hand, and the concubine's heart is enough".

In his own house, a small mourning hall was set up for the second brother and sister-in-law, and Zhu Di knelt in front of the spirit to burn paper for the two of them, but he couldn't tell what it was like in his heart.

When Dao Yan arrived, all he saw was him with a full face, throwing the paper money into the brazier, and whispering something softly. And when he had thought about it, he went up and sat down beside him.

"Do you want Lao Wei to read a scripture to the king of Qin and the princess?"

"What is the use of reciting scriptures when people have passed away......

Zhu Di said softly.

Dao Yan couldn't help but laugh,

"The so-called scriptures are all read for the living, can't the fourth master still let go of it in his heart?"

"yes,"

Zhu Di sighed,

"I always feel like there's something wrong with them."

"Actually, if the fourth master could look at this matter from the side, he wouldn't think so,"

Dao Yan persuaded,

"Fourth master, please think about it, even if you go and try your best to save the princess and let her live, you can still ask for peace of mind. However, all this is against the holy will, not to mention, what kind of rest of the princess's life will she spend next? Was that lonely and hopeless life really what she wanted? In fact, just as the princess herself said, such an ending is her best destination, and it must be what she wants. Fourth master, think about it, is this the truth? ”

"That's true......"

Although the mood was still not very good, Zhu Di also understood that what Dao Yan said was indeed right, so he chuckled helplessly,

"Thank you, Master, for your enlightenment."

"Don't thank me, think about yourself,"

Dao Yan glanced at him and said with a smile,

"If Lao Wei is not mistaken, I'm afraid there will be news in the capital."

In fact, Dao Yan's guess was not wrong at all, and sure enough, after only a short period of time, a holy oracle came from Ying Tianfu, asking Zhu Di to enter the capital as soon as possible......

So, what did Zhu Yuanzhang do to let Zhu Di enter Beijing this time? But it turned out to be related to Zhu Yunwen.

Since being established as the emperor's grandson, in addition to accompanying the emperor's grandfather Zhu Yuanzhang to the court and listening to the ministers' court recitals every day, he usually reads in the imperial study, in addition, Zhu Yunwen has also done what he should do as a grandson, that is, to serve his grandfather Zhu Yuanzhang's daily life.

Although as the emperor, of course, there are indispensable people around him, but if his own grandchildren come to do these things, then it will bring a different feeling to an elderly man. So looking at the benevolent, righteous and filial child in front of him, Zhu Yuanzhang not only taught him daily, but also began to chat with him about his heartfelt words and family life.

In this way, the topic will naturally talk about some people close to you, and of course about those princes and vassal kings who are outside. After chatting a few times, Zhu Yuanzhang faintly felt that his imperial grandson seemed to have some special concern for Zhu Di, the king of Yan who was far away in Beiping Mansion.

Of course, he understands his own son, and he also knows that it can be said that Zhu Di is the most outstanding one among all his sons, and because he is outstanding, there will be all kinds of people and all kinds of purposes to pay attention to. And as the emperor, he will often inquire about his movements, so that he can accurately grasp his whereabouts.

"Yo ho, King Qin did a good job this time,"

Handing the book in his hand to Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile,

"The battle against Taozhou went very smoothly, and the lord there has already surrendered."

"Really?"

Zhu Yunwen carefully took the fold and read it carefully before saying,

"My uncles are really hard working and doing a great job......

"That's right, it's the 'uncles' you said Yoon-wen,"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked up at him and said meaningfully,

"Do you know that this credit also includes a part of your fourth uncle, King Yan."
