It can be said that Zhu Zhan was one of all the princes of the Ming Dynasty before this, and his brain remained sober from beginning to end.

Zhu Zhandong had four chances to ascend to the throne, although it could not be said to be 100% successful, but according to the call at the time, as long as he stood up, the limelight would be reversed in an instant.

Once, it was after the death of Akihito Sect Zhu Gaochi.

After Zhu Gaochi ascended the throne, he ordered Zhu Zhanji to guard Nanjing as the crown prince, and he could be called a prisoner or a residence.

The ministers have always been unwilling to let the emperor act arbitrarily, so according to the precedent, he asked the prince and important ministers to go to guard, but Zhu Gaochi, who was kind and kind in the past, insisted on letting the crown prince go to Nanjing.

It is said that Zhu Zhanji's visit to Nanjing is also an old precedent, and this old precedent is naturally the old precedent of Zhu Di's repeated northern expeditions to supervise Nanjing with Zhu Gaochi.

The ministers were speechless, and Zhu Zhanji was able to go to Nanjing smoothly and begin to deal with the clan kings in Jiangnan and establish his own foundation.

However, Zhu Gaochi only served as emperor for ten months before he died.

As the crown prince, Zhu Zhanji was supposed to return to Beijing to succeed to the throne, but at the time of Renxuan's change, the political turmoil was imminent.

Shi Han, Zhao Erwang, Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui were ready to move, contacted many parties, and plotted to rebel and seize the throne.

In order to prevent accidents, the Empress Dowager Zhang ordered to block the news of Zhu Gaochi's death, secretly welcomed Zhu Zhanji to the north to ascend the throne, and secretly ordered Zhu Zhanji, the king of Xiang, to supervise the country, and Xia Yuan Jifu, who was the secretary of the household department at the time.

As a result, there were two prisoners in the north and south of Beijing at that time.

This is Zhu Zhandong's first chance.

You must know that under the management of Zhu Di and Zhu Gaochi for two generations, Beijing is already the political and military center of the country, and Zhu Zhandong is also Zhang's sister-in-law, so she loves this fifth son very much.

Zhu Zhandong, who served as a supervisor in Beijing, can be said to occupy the right time and place, and his chances of seizing the throne are even greater than those of Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui.

But Zhu Zhan had no ambition to become the emperor, or rather, he never thought about becoming an emperor from the beginning.

His approach was to try his best to stabilize the situation and wait for his eldest brother Zhu Zhanji to return to Beijing and ascend the throne.

Later, Zhu Zhanji successfully returned to Beijing and ascended the throne, with the year name Xuande, which was for Ming Xuanzong, so the situation gradually stabilized, but the ambitious Han King Zhu Gaoxu chose to rebel.

At that time, Zhu Zhanji had just succeeded to the throne, and the people's hearts were unstable, so in order to boost the morale of the army, he chose to personally lead the troops to quell the rebellion.

The emperor personally conquered and had to leave a prison state in Beijing, there is no doubt that this prison country is still Zhu Zhan Zheng, which is a helpless choice.

Because at that time in the DPRK, Zhu Zhandong's ability and ministers, who had been in charge of the country once, were obvious to all, and his character in the clan was also good, and his voice was quite high.

This is Zhu Zhandong's second chance.

If it were someone else, he might take a risk, but Zhu Zhandong's choice was the same as the first time, and there was no change in the slightest.

He is still conscientious and conscientious as a prisoner, just a prisoner.

Zhu Zhandong did not cultivate any of his own forces in Beijing, nor did he even win over a party member, he just wanted to let his eldest brother know that he had no intention of competing with him for the throne.

The results proved that Zhu Zhandong's choice was right, the rebellion of the Han King was just a farce, and Zhu Zhanji successfully quelled the rebellion and stabilized the hearts of the people and the army.

Then, Zhu Zhan was not settled by the Autumn Queen, and went to Changsha to become a vassal king.

At that time, Zhu Zhanji thought that he could be a free prince, just eat, drink and have fun all day long, but who would have thought, Zhu Zhanji didn't live a few more years.

Zhu Zhanji died young after ten years on the throne, and the selection of the next emperor has become a problem.

At that time, many important ministers in the court felt that the crown prince Zhu Qizhen was too young to succeed to the throne, so he supported the highly respected and twice supervised the country, and his political achievements were obvious to all, and Zhu Zhandong, the king of Xiang, ascended the throne as the emperor.

At this time, Zhu Zhan was not only the emperor's uncle in terms of status, but also won the support of many people, and the crown prince Zhu Qizhen was also very young, and even the empress dowager Zhang acquiesced to the courtiers' decision.

Such an opportunity can be said to be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, almost as long as he nods, he can sit on the throne.

However, Zhu Zhan gave up such an opportunity for the third time.

In the face of those voices who made himself emperor, he defied public opinion and unswervingly supported the youth. (This chapter is not finished!) )

Chapter 128: Zhu Zhandong's way of life

The nine-year-old nephew Zhu Qizhen ascended the throne, which was later known as Ming Yingzong.

fate, still did not give up Zhu Zhandong.

In the face of the menacing Warat army, Zhu Qizhen wanted to imitate Xuanzong Zhu Zhanji and come to a royal expedition that said he would go, but the result was diametrically opposite.

Zhu Di faced his nephew's cutting of the feudal domain and successfully seized the throne, Zhu Zhanji faced his uncle's rebellion and won a complete victory, while Zhu Qizhen suffered an unprecedented defeat.

In the battle of Tumubao, the Ming army was defeated, and even Zhu Qizhen himself was captured by the Wara army.

The king of a country was defeated and captured, and the whole country was shaken, and the crown prince Zhu Jianshen at this time was younger than Zhu Qizhen at that time fourteen years ago, only a little more than a year old.

In this way, the emperor's seat was vacant again.

In order to stabilize the situation, and also for the honor and disgrace of her Sun family, Sun Ruowei, who was the queen mother at the time, proposed to let her brother-in-law, that is, Zhu Zhandong, the king of Xiang, succeed to the throne as emperor and lead the whole people to resist the Wara army.

But at the same time, another voice also began to appear, that is, the national hero Yu Qian, whose opinion was that King Xiang was a vassal in Changsha, and the domain was far away from Beijing, and Zhu Qizhen's younger brother Zhu Qiyu was proclaimed emperor.

This is Zhu Zhandong's fourth and last chance.

Whether it was Zhu Qiyu at that time, or the crown prince Zhu Jianshen, there was no way to compete with the highly respected Xiangwang Zhu Zhandong, and it was also a matter of one sentence.

Fate, once again, threw the olive branch of imperial power to the same person.

Fate has never been so involved in a person.

Faced with this fourth opportunity, Zhu Zhandong still refused.

He believes that since ancient times, the transfer of power is generally the succession of father to son or brother to brother, and he is somewhat unjustified as the emperor's uncle.

At the same time, Zhu Zhan also saw the wolf ambition of Sun Ruowei, who was the queen mother at the time, and he replied to Sun Ruowei with sharp words, calling Zhu Qiyu, who was the king of servants at the time, a prisoner.

Of course, before this reply came to Beijing from Changsha, the overall situation of Beijing was taken over by Yu Qian, and Zhu Qiyu successfully supervised the country and led the army and people to resist Warat.

What happened later was that Zhu Di was reborn and attached to Zhu Qiyu during the siege of Wara.

Zhu Zhan didn't know this, he just knew that this was the fifth time that fate had played tricks on him, and now he arrived in Beijing with his wife and children, and his attitude was the same as usual.

In the past 30 years, Zhu Zhandong's waist circumference has gained three times, but his brain is still clever, and he knew from the beginning that the emperor is not so easy to be.

An idle prince is much happier. @精华\/Shuge Error-free Debut~~

According to the ancestral system, the vassal king of the Ming Dynasty is not allowed to enter Beijing without an edict, Zhu Di came over with this holy decree, and Zhu Zhan Yuan guessed the reason at that time, so even his wife and son also brought it.
