Zhu Di's heart was in turmoil.

Back at Yanwang's Mansion, he didn't care about taking advantage of the cool and cooling off, and went directly to the other garden house to find Cheng Yuan.

Back then, the eldest brother Xu, Zhu Di never dared to touch the idea of becoming an emperor, after all, there were the second brother King Qin and the third brother King Jin on top.

The other princes also watched.

Everyone in the world wants to be the emperor, but there is only one emperor, which Zhu Di knows. So I had the emperor's addiction in my dreams.

When I woke up from a dream, I was still the Ming prince who kept to himself.

Now, he is the dignified King of Yan, but he has to be restricted by his eldest nephew and cannot run to mourn, and there is nowhere to be angry.

He always felt that when his father divided the feudal kings, these ministers continued to obstruct them.

Now that the emperor is dead, these guys are ready to act again, and they also incite the eldest nephew to restrict the kings.

The other side.

Cheng Yuan was looking at the weather, counting the time to harvest sweet potatoes in autumn. The climate of today is very different from that of the future.

"Mr. Cheng, I want to invite you for a drink." Zhu Di took Zhu Neng from a distance.

Cheng Yuan and Zhu Di sat facing each other.

In the middle is a pot of wine, two wine glasses, and four side dishes.

Zhu Di was still dressed in linen filial piety clothes when he left the house, and on the white filial piety clothes, the loess dyed changed color.

Cheng Yuan sat quietly, picked up the wine glass and drank slowly, not in a hurry, nor did he speak.

Zhu Di was angry in his heart, and he was prevented from going to Beijing for the funeral, everything made him flustered, and he couldn't help but say: "Why does Mr. know that the saint will not let me enter Beijing for the funeral today." ”

"God told me." Cheng Yuan pretended to point to the sky in a deep voice: "All this will be fine, the prince doesn't have to be angry." ”

Zhu Di was shocked, he hid it well, and he could see that he was angry.

But his face was only slightly surprised, calm as usual: "As a son of man, I should be filial, and I am not allowed to be filial in front of the spirit, how can this king not be angry." ”

Cheng Yuan glanced at Zhu Di, today's saint has an edict to cut troops, and he is obstructed, which has another deep meaning.

"Lord Wang, none of your worries matter. What should be worried is the attitude of the current court towards the princes. ”

Zhu Di's heart sank, looking at Cheng Yuan in front of him, his body was shocked: "Mr. also sees the intention of the Son of Heaven?" ”

Yao Guangxiao told him that he didn't believe it all, and now that Cheng Yuan mentioned it again, Zhu Di had to start thinking.

Zhu Di became angry: "My father asked our brother to guard the fortress, this is a national policy. ”

"There are often riots in various places, and the Northern Yuan Dynasty is eyeing the Ming Dynasty. If there is no us for the Ming Dynasty, where will the Son of Heaven sit firmly in the sky. ”

"This world is our old Zhu family, I am also surnamed Zhu, we are all a family, why is the court hostile to us, are we not respectful and obedient enough to the court?"

Cheng Yuan motioned to Zhu Di to calm his anger, Zhu Yuanzhang is a person with great wisdom, how could he not have considered the rebellion of the vassal kings of the previous dynasty.

"The first emperor ordered the princes to guard the important places in the world and lead the troops, which is a trust in the princes, but there is only one throne, the emperor must have the support of the emperor's mental skills, and the princes supervise each other and contain each other."

"Unless the court is weakened, who can achieve great things? When the vassal king is weak, he will have the power to replace him. ”

Therefore, in order to prevent traitors in the court, the first emperor stipulated that the kings could enter the capital and lead the troops to Jingjing. At the same time, the future emperor was also allowed to order the reduction of feudal domains if necessary. ”

Cheng Yuan looked at Zhu Di after speaking: "The first emperor took Liu Bang as an example, for the first emperor, it is much better to replace the incompetent faint monarch with his own princes and grandsons than your old Zhu family's rivers and mountains falling into the hands of outsiders." ”

"The meat is rotten, and it can only rot in the pot of the old Zhu family, in order to protect Zhu Ming's hundred years of country, the first emperor believes that he does not believe in heaven, he never listens to how others praise, but decides by himself."

"I don't think so, in his eyes, the uncles are too powerful today, and their throne is unstable, and they must be controlled."

Zhu Di was angry, he felt that he had been the crown prince for a few years, and his position had already been decided, so why not worry about their uncles.

"Today, the Holy One is the crown prince, and we have nothing to oppose."

"Lord Wang, the saint is not at ease."

"First, you are the most powerful, and second, the current saint is not the crown prince."

"Yes, Mr. Cheng is right. The saint is the eldest grandson of the first emperor, but he is not the grandson, and the grandson is Zhu Yunxi. Yao Guangxiao nodded appreciatively at Cheng Yuan.

Zhu Di said helplessly: "That's it, the saint doesn't worry about us, just give him the military power, I don't want to send troops to Mobei, how good it is for me to be an idle prince, I don't bother to worry about it." ”

Cheng Yuan and Yao Guangxiao glanced at each other.

Among the kings, the northern kings were the strongest. It belongs to Zhu Zhang, the king of Qin, Zhu Li, the king of Jin, and Zhu Di, the king of Yan.

Then add Ning Wang Zhu Quan.

They are the most powerful.

"The prince thinks so, but I'm afraid that the emperor won't stop now." Cheng Yuan said it earlier than Yao Guangxiao.

Zhu Di was puzzled, the emperor's filial piety is known to the whole world, is it not possible to pay the military power as the emperor's uncle?

Could it be that the saints will be wiped out today?

Cheng Yuan saw Zhu Di's thoughts, shook his head and said, "King Qin and King Jin have passed away. Lord Wang, you have led the army out of the fortress many times, and you have repeatedly established meritorious deeds. I'm afraid the emperor is most jealous of you. ”

Yao Guangxiao nodded, this young man from a peasant family is so knowledgeable, and he has calculated that the prince was blocked from entering Beijing, he is really a powerful person.

Zhu Di was very cold, thinking about his Shangyuan Festival in the twenty-fifth year of Hongwu, they drank and talked with their eldest brother, and their brotherhood was deep.

"I don't believe that the Holy One will not attack our uncles, and he will not kill them all, he will remember the affection of the eldest brother and our uncles."

Yao Guangxiao nodded, he just rang the alarm bell to King Yan and said, "The poor monk doesn't dare to speculate about today's saints, it's just an assertion." ”

Cheng Yuan knows the trend of history very well, since the prince doesn't believe it, he won't be stupid enough to persuade Zhu Di to raise troops.

"The prince will be careful in the future, and he will be an idle prince in the mansion during these days, and he must not fall into the hands of others. Here's my advice. Cheng Yuan said.

Zhu Di got up and said: "From today onwards, I will be a free prince, comfortable and chic in the city, I can't ask for it." ”

"This king wants to reassure the saints."

Cheng Yuan also stood up, and after seeing Zhu Di away, he began to lie in the pavilion. Just wait for Zhu Yunwen to play this game of chess badly.

But at the same time, Cheng Yuan also had a plan for himself, hoarding more food, accumulating more money, and so on.

He stayed in Beiping Mansion just to lean on the big tree of Zhu Di.

But you have to take refuge in advance.

Follow King Yan early.

The first impression is very important, but he has to rely on King Yan to eat all his life.

The most important thing is to follow him and have meat to eat.

In history, Zhang Xin was ordered by Zhu Yunwen to attack Zhu Di in the early days, but he secretly told Zhu Di about it.

Zhu Di was very grateful to Zhang Xin, saying that the emperor did not have much merit in the Battle of Jingnan, and Zhang Xin, who performed mediocre, was awarded the title of Guogong.

not only rewarded a lot of things, but also protected the impeached Zhang Xin many times during the Yongle period.

Work steadily. Cheng Yuan felt that he would be a good person, and it would be very good, and he would change the reform by the way.

If you become the emperor yourself, some policies will not be able to be implemented.

Following Zhu Di, at least the wealth is boundless.

On the second day, Cheng Yuan continued to take care of the sweet potatoes.

In July, the weather in the north was hot, and half of the seedlings were afraid of wilting, so Zhu Di worshipped Zhu Yuanzhang in the temporary mourning hall of Yanwangfu.

He was also happy to be idle.

At this time, the capital is thousands of miles away.
