Chapter Eighty-Nine: Father and Son

"Yes." He Xi immediately agreed.

The crown prince sighed, his voice turned soft, and said, "Brother He, it's not that I don't understand you. The most difficult thing in the world to do is the prince, especially the prince of the male lord. The father is a once-in-a-millennium hero. I, the prince, is especially difficult to do. If the world is big, and I, the prince, don't participate in it, it's a decoration, and I can't understand the painstaking efforts of my father, and I don't know the hardships of everything. But if you are involved in everything, where is the father? You are the father who does things. But it's also a sister-in-law. The key is that you are also in a dilemma. We can only be considerate of each other. ”

"There are some things that don't need to be hidden from me. Of course, except for the emperor's special instructions. ”

The prince has always been very tolerant of He Xi.

This kind of tolerance, on the one hand, comes from the nature of the prince, and the nature of the prince is not bad. On the other hand, it is from the status of the crown prince.

How to be a prince, Zhu Biao actually has a deep understanding. On the one hand, we must follow Zhu Yuanzhang's opinions, and we must have our own opinions, and on the other hand, we must also use static braking for hundreds of officials and ministers, and turn private into public. Because he is the crown prince himself and has a stable position, it would be wrong if he was bent on stabilizing his position. We must be lenient, uphold the heart of the country, and ignore selfishness. Because everyone in the world can be selfish. He can't have it.

for the world will be his.

But this tolerance is the tolerance of the victors. There is a limit.

Actually, the prince's identity to He Xi. As for the secret behind He Xi's identity, I don't know how long I have been secretly figuring it out. Before, you could endure not asking, but you should not know. But now, it's getting harder and harder for him.

The reason is simple.

He Xi has done too much. Zhu Yuanzhang's trust in He Xi. exceeded the limits of what the prince could imagine.

even made the prince a little jealous. Although Zhu Yuanzhang loves the prince, he still adheres to the heart of a strict father, and he is very strict in many things. As for He Xi, it is no longer as simple as obeying words, it is simply a military matter, and everything is obeyed.

This is simply unimaginable for the crown prince.

Before, most of He Xi's actions were retreats.

This retreat is important though. But it's more directional. The real implementation is still in the imperial court. The prince can bear it, and even study it carefully, so as to figure out what Zhu Yuanzhang means. But employing people is different.

The so-called power of the imperial court is actually three. Personnel power, financial power, military power.

As long as the human master grasps these three, he can be invincible.

Even personnel rights are especially important. Because there are people who have everything. He Xi seems to be a very simple temporary solution. But the prince knew that it was not temporary. It's a precursor, it's a pilot. This matter, the prince will never be able to sit still.

I also took this opportunity to test He Xi's secret.

Let's see how He Xi responds.

What can He Xi say?

To be honest, he has long been mentally prepared for the spread of his identity now. After all, he estimated that even if his identity spread, not many people would believe it. Even if it is passed on to future generations, it is just some gossip. For example, since ancient times, the so-called emperors have had visions such as the red sun entering the belly.

I thought that the ancients were superstitious.

And he felt that the crown prince would probably find out sooner or later. But the person who decides this sooner or later is not He Xi. It's Zhu Yuanzhang.

He Xi can only apologize.

He Xi said: "Please rest assured that the prince will not have such a thing in the future, and he will definitely ask the East Palace for instructions." ”

The prince could naturally hear it, and He Xi politely refused in this sentence.

The prince was silent for a while, and then said, "It's okay." ”

At this time, someone outside the carriage said; "Your Majesty, you have already arrived outside the gate of Hefu."

He Xi said: "The minister has retired. ”

The prince bowed his head slightly and did not speak.

He Xi hurriedly retreated. Stand in front of your own house. Salute from afar and watch the prince's motorvoy leave. When the convoy couldn't see it, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said secretly in his heart: "Jiangtou may not be troublesome, and it is difficult to travel in the world." ”

If he is at ease, he will be a rich idler, an adviser to the emperor. The crown prince will not tolerate him. But he won't.

Power is a good thing.

But power is more exclusive. Zhu Yuanzhang naturally has the power, and no one can touch it, even the prince. But the more power He Xi has in the future. The more things like this, the more they are.

It wasn't that the prince intended to target He Xi.

It's people in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves. A lot of things are not something they can do on their own. The emperor still can't do anything happy, let alone the prince and He Xi.

People say that money alienates people. But how can power not alienate people?

Although, the problem between the prince and He Xi today is a small problem. As long as they find their position and correct the way they relate to each other. For a long time to come, there will be no problems.

But what about the future?

What He Xi wants to do, he must have the power alone. Zhu Yuanzhang may be able to allow it. Because Zhu Yuanzhang is very confident, no matter what He Xi looks like, he is under Zhu Yuanzhang's control. But the crown prince may not be.

It is not without reason that those who hold the power alone will be called outnumbered.

The more He Xi integrates into the Ming Dynasty, the more he can see the thorns in the future. Just a lot of things that have to be done for. The way to change the law has always been like this.

He Xi adjusted his mood slightly, and after going back, he first reported today's events to Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Yuanzhang didn't react at all. He Xi secretly figured out that Zhu Yuanzhang did not want to exclude the prince.

This made He Xi a little embarrassed.

If Fang Xiaoru was involved before, it would only be a problem with the content of the special exam this time. The content of the question is important. But already a small problem. It is the employment plan of the entire Ming Dynasty, which is almost a resurgence of the imperial examination dispute.

Although Song Lian is dead. But the problems faced by Da Ming are still there.

Those who support the imperial examination system are still there.

That's not the end of it.

Many times, killing people won't solve the problem.

These days, although He Xi has not had a head-to-head confrontation with Fang Xiaoru, he doesn't feel that Fang Xiaoru is a good-natured character. Especially this time, he came on behalf of the crown prince, which can be described as a bad come. He Xi secretly said in his heart: "How should this person deal with it." ”

He thought about it, his heart suddenly moved, and he said secretly: "I don't know how he should deal with it, so let the people in history deal with him do it." ”

This person is none other than Yao Guangxiao.

Before Yao Guangxiao, he offered a plan to book the candidate for the Guozi Priest's wine. However, although Liu Song's health is not good, he is slightly better after He Xiyan asked Dr. Dai Shen for diagnosis and treatment. It can probably drag on for a while. So this matter has been put on hold for the time being. However, it is better to put it on hold. Because of Song Lin, he must keep filial piety now. dragged out Song Lin's filial piety, which was much easier to do.

After all, although He Xi may not be able to let Zhu Yuanzhang win his love, because this is the early Ming Dynasty, many things are not so harsh. But as a civil servant, and after being a great Confucian, he does not respect the law of etiquette, and it is somewhat a black spot.

And the longer you prepare, the easier things will be. At least now, Yao Guangxiao has corresponded with Song Lin as an admirer of Song Ne. Prepare to slowly pull Song Lin over.

Everything Yao Guangxiao did, He Xi also knew Yao Guangxiao's purpose.

Before, Yao Guangxiao could not enter He Xi's inner circle. Now, if this matter is discussed with Yao Guangxiao, then Yao Guangxiao will really become the core of He Xi.

Thinking of this, He Xi breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, the world is so big, it is impossible to do it alone, even if there is Zhu Yuanzhang's protection, he needs help. Yao Guangxiao is a person who has proven himself in history. In this regard, He Xi has a little more trust than others.

The situation at hand is very complicated.

He Xi also needs someone to solve his doubts, and Zhu Yuanzhang can naturally analyze him clearly. But He Xi also knew that Zhu Yuanzhang intended to teach him. But he can also ask for advice on everything, Zhu Yuanzhang may not have that time, and it is easy for Zhu Yuanzhang to doubt his ability.

The second reason is that Zhu Yuanzhang has his own position, especially this kind of question about the prince, Zhu Yuanzhang's answer may not be absolutely for the sake of the sun.

"Yao Guangxiao, I hope you don't let me down." He Xi said secretly in his heart.
