"Let's try it on Yingtian Street tomorrow." Zhu Gaochi looked at him with both hands.

Cheng Yuan was kind and tempting: "Your Highness should also help us publicize it, and we will get off to a good start tomorrow." ”

…………

On the second day, Zhu Di called his three sons-in-law to the imperial study.

Yuan Rong blamed Cheng Yuan for the Double Ninth Festival last year, and the two rarely spoke.

Yuan Rong only sealed the wait, and Cheng Yuan was very unhappy about the fact that Cheng Yuan was the prince of the country.

Last month, Yuan Rong followed Xia Yuanji to Suzhou Prefecture to control the water, because he was in charge of the transfer of the grain depot, Zhu Di did not reward Yuan Rong, but rewarded Cheng Yuan.

Yuan Rong transferred his dissatisfaction to Cheng Yuan, and Princess Yong'an Zhu Yuying naturally defended her husband, and she was also quite dissatisfied with Cheng Yuan verbally.

was targeted by Yuan Rong, a fool, Cheng Yuan was also helpless, whoever let him be the son-in-law of the old Zhu family, and it was normal to compare.

When Cheng Yuan passed, Li Rang and Yuan Rong were already sitting next to him, and he arched his hand: "I don't know that Your Majesty has summoned me, but I have something to tell the minister." ”

"Hmmm......"

Zhu Di's face became solemn, and he said straight to the point: "You are all your own family, I have recently heard about the division of military generals and civil officials, and some of them even went to the Han Palace's mansion to give gifts, Yuan Rong, Li Rang, Cheng Yuan, I want to know what you think." ”

Zhu Chupang and the king of the mouth are two brothers.

Yuan Rong went to the Han Palace's mansion to drink before, and Fuyang Hou Li Rang also received gifts.

At that time, Cheng Yuan was taken away by An Cheng with an excuse, so naturally he did not go to Cheng, and he was considered to have maintained neutrality.

Cheng Yuan felt that Zhu Di definitely didn't want to ask who was the prince.

Zhu Di is very assertive about this kind of thing, just to ring the alarm bell.

Three sons and four daughters were all born to Queen Xu, and the palms and backs of their hands were full of meat, Zhu Di would not watch his sons kill each other.

We cannot take a stand on this matter.

"Who's going to say it first?"

Yuan Rong said: "Father, let the big let the young, and the third brother-in-law will speak first." ”

Cheng Yuan said: "Father, the elders are respected, how dare I steal the limelight from the eldest brother-in-law, the eldest brother-in-law will say it first." ”

Zhu Di glanced at Yuan Rong and motioned for him to speak first.

Yuan Rong said: "Father, I think that the crown prince is the crown prince personally appointed by His Majesty, and at the beginning, for the sake of the country, he ascended the throne as the eldest prince as the crown prince, and these officials should have nothing to discuss about this matter." ”

Zhu Di glanced at it and said, "Yuan Rong, what's the matter?" Do you think it will be safe to be a prince one day? Gao Chi is not in good health, don't you know? ”

Zhu Laosi, you are too bad, you are putting smoke bombs on everyone, and you want to fish for law enforcement? Cheng Yuan silently observed the situation.

Li Rang said with a smile: "Back to his father, the prince, and the king of Han are all very good, the prince has a benevolent temperament, and the king of Han is a person, and he is as free and decisive as his father, they are all extremely good." ”

Zhu Di glanced at it: "Li Rang." It's the same as if you didn't, but the two of them do have their own merits. ”

After being silent for a long time, Zhu Di turned his head to look at Cheng Yuan and asked, "It's your turn." ”

Come, come, Zhu Laosi sent me another proposition for me to answer...... Cheng Yuan cleared his throat and bowed his hand to Zhu Di.

"What are you doing as a courtesy?" What Zhu Di values most and worries most is Cheng Yuan's attitude.

As long as Cheng Yuan is willing to support whom, in the future, that person will be the son of tomorrow, so Zhu Di is very nervous.

"The prince is the foundation of the country, not a family matter, and the minister should answer His Majesty's questions as the prince of the town.

The minister only thinks that the matter of the prince is just quietly waiting for His Majesty's holy judgment.

Whoever Your Majesty appoints, the ministers will support whomever they want, is this in accordance with the holy will, what is the useless tongue root of the courtiers? The minister felt that they were full of food. ”

Zhu Di rolled his eyes and pointed at Cheng Yuan: "You rabbit cub, slippery head." ”

Cheng Yuan also looked serious: "Your Majesty's meaning, the minister understands, it must be the actions of some courtiers that make Your Majesty worried."

In fact, His Majesty is wise and martial, as long as he knows it in his heart, he doesn't have to care about what the courtiers do. ”

In addition to asking them about their attitudes, Zhu Di also deliberately took advantage of this matter to see what they thought, and it was impossible for the court to support the King of Han and the crown prince in two factions at that time.

Yuan Rong, Li Rang, Zhu Neng, Zhang Yu, Qiu Fu These generals, including Cheng Yuan, have the most contact with Zhu Gaoxu every time.

Zhu Di naturally wanted to ask.

Zhu Di was silent for a moment and said: "Yuan Rong, Li Rang, you go down first, I will say a few words to Zhenguo Gong." ”

Li Rang couldn't wait to leave: "Yes." ”

Yuan Rong glanced at Cheng Yuan, very dissatisfied, but he didn't dare to show it in front of Zhu Di, and then left.

The door of the palace closed, and Zhu Di said, "Let's talk about it." ”

"Yes, Father."

"Hey, why did you change your tune again?"

"It was a state affair just now, and now it's a family affair." Cheng Yuan said.

Zhu Di is also a father, and from the perspective of being a father, it must be that the two sons will not hurt.

"Sure enough, you still know me better." Zhu Di got down from the throne, sat down on the low steps, patted the carpet next to him and said, "Sit." ”

"I think Gao Chi, this child, is very much like Prince Yiwen, broad-minded, benevolent, and has the style of a king. As a father, I am very happy with him. ”

The eloquent Emperor Yongle is an ordinary father at the moment, and when he praises his son, he looks happy.

"But Gao Xu is not bad, he has saved me so many times, and he is definitely a good hand when it comes to leading troops to fight.

The two children were too good, and I saw that the courtiers were secretly divided into two groups, and I had doubts in my heart.

Gao Chi posture diet treatment, all like that, I want him to be in good health, but I am afraid that he will not be able to manage the Ming Dynasty with this kind of body. ”

Zhu Di said it so clearly, Cheng Yuan would not be kind to pretend to be stupid, so he said: "You are embarrassed because the prince is not in good health?" When he was done with the locusts, the minister would be able to cultivate himself and diet for the prince. ”

Having a holy king, talent, is indispensable in the prosperous world, and Cheng Yuan needs this.

Zhu Di said: "It's just one of them, my body can live for a few decades, and by then, my emperors and grandchildren have grown up, and there is nothing to worry about."

But I feel struggling to review thousands of notes every day, can Gao Chi withstand it, do I have to take the road of Prince Yiwen again? Untimely death?

You know Gao Xu, he has the ability to govern martial arts, it's not that Wenzhi can't do it, it's just that he hasn't touched it. In fact, in the past two years, Gao Chi has also been reading and practicing calligraphy.

At that time, I also implicitly told him that when the time came, how could I break my promise by making him the prince. ”

Cheng Yuan didn't understand: "Then Your Majesty hesitates?" ”

"Gao Chi has never been at fault, how can I deprive him of his qualifications as a prince, and most importantly, if I break the rules of establishing a successor, the Ming royal family will never have peace in the future.

Besides, I like Zhanji very much.

Standing Gao Chi can only take care of the eyes of Da Ming, and setting up Gao Chi is to take care of future generations. ”

Zhu Di seems to be a person who talks about his heart.

"You have put your heart into me, and I am willing to share your Majesty's worries. You have something to say. Cheng Yuan said.

I can see that Zhu Di is not hesitating for who to be the prince, but has other things to explain.

"You are smart, I know that now the military generals support Gao Chi more, and the civil officials support Gao Chi instead, I don't want to see their brothers killed."

Cheng Yuan said: "As you know, the two princes respect me very much, and the relationship is good, no matter which prince inherits the unification, he will not treat me badly."

But Your Majesty has made me a hereditary prince of Zhenguo, and my children and grandchildren are the same as the Ming Dynasty, so I will also give His Royal Highness An Cheng according to your wishes, and try my best to be loyal. ”

Zhu Di said: "I'm not asking you to show loyalty, it's because I see that the military generals of Wenchen are so divided, and I'm afraid that their brothers will compete for the throne, I don't want to see any of their brothers get hurt, understand." ”

Cheng Yuan said: "I understand, I will also do my best to let them all live well." ”

"What I want is your words, if I am not there one day, you must let them both live well, and don't kill their brothers."

"Okay, but I think you're worrying too soon, you don't have to think about it so early, maybe you'll live a long time.

The matter of the two princes, sometimes there is no need to rush to a conclusion. There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and the boat is naturally straight to the bridge.

What we have to do now is to let the people of Daming be fed and clothed, train to strengthen the country, and develop industry and commerce. ”

Zhu Di laughed: "If you can't reach the prosperous age, I will be the first to clean you up." ”

"The minister is here for the prosperous world!"

Cheng Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, the king of Han and the crown prince could only express his meaning in this kind of matter.

Zhu Di put his heart into him, but he couldn't shake too much to go out, he was the emperor, and he was unhappy one day, and he couldn't afford to fight if he turned his face.

Fortunately, Zhu Di didn't say anything about it again, but asked Zheng He to discuss the matter in Yunnan.

Cheng Yuan took the opportunity to get up and say goodbye.

He's going to sell corn.
