"Don't you really need me to help you educate your son?"

Thinking of the ending on the coal mountain, Zhu Zhanyan couldn't help but sigh.

"No need." Zhu Zhanji smiled slightly, very relaxed.

The current Zhu Zhanji, Zhu Zhanji, and even everyone have very different endings from history.

Zhu Zhanji is destined not to live to the Xuande ten years in history, whether he goes out this time or not, it will be the same.

Previously, in the middle of the year, Zhu Zhanji was sick in bed once, and the result was diagnosed by the imperial doctor that the life under house arrest in the previous two years was too indulgent and damaged the foundation.

In fact, I think about it, I am depressed and drunk every day, and there are often hysterical shouts from Qingning Palace during the very beginning of the period.

At that time, Zhu Zhanji, not only his living habits were wrong, but even his spirit was a little wrong.

This double squandering caused his body to be quickly hollowed out.

Of course, this situation is not fatal, after all, many people have this situation, and if he has to say, he is not even comparable to the daily labor of the people at the bottom.

But if he continues to live, even if he repels Zhu Zhanyan and regains control of the imperial court, the next series of events will be enough to make him work hard, and even drag him down.

You must know that people now are only afraid of Zhu Zhanqi, not the Ming Dynasty.

In fact, Zhu Zhanji also knew that handing over his son to Zhu Zhanji to teach could make his son a better talent, but he was unwilling.

Let go...... It's not that easy.

He can now put down the mustard and sit on the top of this coal mountain with Zhu Zhanyan to drink tea and talk, but he can't let go of him who was once under house arrest by his cousin in the harem.

Think about it, if it was so easy to let go, there wouldn't be so many grudges in this world.

Sun Ruowei ...... Anything else aside, at least she's not a qualified mother. ”

Zhu Zhanyan put down his teacup and looked south on the top of this coal mountain.

That, is the direction of the Imperial Palace.

"Actually, from the very beginning, I didn't approve of Sun Ruowei entering the palace."

"This person's entry into the palace is too strong and too obvious, I think grandpa saw this back then, so he chose Hu Shanxiang as your concubine, not Sun Ruowei."

"This person, it's okay to be a concubine, but if she is a queen, she is not qualified."

"In addition, even if I am willing to let go, she can't be a queen mother, I don't believe you can't see it."

"Yes......" Zhu Zhanji looked at the south, and his tone was a little long.

"I was blinded by hatred for the first two years, and I really didn't see it, but how could I not see clearly when I came to my senses?"

"However, there are too many involuntary ...... in life"

"For so many years, Shanxiang has not made any mistakes in the princess, the crown princess, and even the queen, and it can even be said that he is outstanding."

"But then again, although I am the queen of the abolition, if it continues, the country has no prince, and the abolition will still become the last and only possibility."

"Ruowei she...... It's really not good enough, not to mention compared with your princess, I'm afraid it's a little worse than ordinary concubines, but she gave birth to a son for me. ”

"That's it......"

Speaking of this, Zhu Zhanji let out a long sigh, as if he was a little lamented because he found the shortcomings that he didn't expect at the beginning.

"For the time being, it's okay, after all, the queen mother is still ......"

Zhu Zhanyan nodded majestically.

Indeed, Zhang is an excellent person, from the princess to the crown princess to the queen to the queen mother to the queen mother, Zhang can almost be said to have made no mistakes.

In history, when the Baozong was young, it was she who carried the banner when the Daming Sect was empty, so that the Daming Sect was exempted from being controlled by the Chinese courtiers.

But......

Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanyan sighed.

The Zhang family in history, from the birth of Zhu Qizhen in the second year of Xuande, to the time she died in the seventh year of orthodoxy, Zhu Qizhen was already fourteen years old.

The stage from the second year of Xuande to the tenth year of Xuande is not counted for the time being, let's just say that during the period from the first year of orthodoxy to the seventh year of orthodoxy, she can almost be said to hold the highest power of the imperial court and the education of her grandson.

However, Zhu Qizhen was not educated to be a brilliant emperor.

You can say that the emperor's education is complicated and difficult, and it is impossible to train an emperor in seven years, but doesn't that also prove that the Zhang family in the current situation is not good at cultivating Zhu Qizhen?

Therefore, Zhu Zhanyan is not optimistic about his cousin's idea.

But......

"That's it." Zhu Zhanyan shook his head slightly.

This is someone's son, or even his enemy, an obstacle to his ascension to the throne, what is he going to worry about?

"White phosphor, either?"

"White phosphor?" Zhu Zhanji looked at his cousin in surprise.

"That thing you used in Xiangzhou Mansion? I've heard that as soon as that one appears, it leads to victory? ”

"For now...... That is true. Zhu Zhanyan nodded.

For now, white phosphorous eggs are indeed incomprehensible.

In this era, although firearms have made great progress, the main form of warfare is still the battle between the two armies, and the fight between cavalry and infantry determines the final victory.

Therefore, the advantages of white phosphorous eggs are maximized.

If you have an advantage, the white phosphosphere is a weapon with great lethality, and it can almost break the enemy in one fell swoop and take away the final victory.

If it is a disadvantage, the white phosphorous egg can also have the effect of blocking the enemy's attack, after all, the high temperature of 1,000 degrees Celsius can not mention the flesh and blood, even the bones can be burned through, not to mention the extremely toxic smoke.

With white phosphorus eggs in hand, as long as the difference in numbers is not particularly outrageous, no matter how bad it is, it can be a lose-lose game.

"Why give it to me?" Zhu Zhanji looked at his cousin in surprise, as if he didn't understand this approach.

"You're not afraid that I'll regret it when I get it? Not according to the original arrangement? ”

"So what?" Zhu Zhanyan smiled.

"What I provide you with is only the finished product, the production method will not be given to you, what I want to protect is the vitality of the Ming Dynasty, you can understand it as leaving some family for your son, or you can understand it as leaving more things for myself."

"It's also ......," Zhu Zhanji suddenly heard the words.

The manufacture of weapons has never been a simple matter, although the white phosphosphere egg is very simple, but Zhu Zhanji does not mean that he has the opportunity to be on an equal footing with Zhu Zhanji.

Strength...... is a hard gap, the strength between him and Zhu Zhanyan is not just a white phosphorus egg.

Besides, even if it was 10,000 steps back, if Zhu Zhanji was not sure, it would be impossible to give this kind of big killing weapon to Zhu Zhanji.

After all, Zhu Zhanyan took out the white phosphor egg very early, as early as Emperor Taizong was still alive at that time.

But even at that time, Zhu Zhanyan still withstood the pressure and did not hand over the white phosphorus egg to Emperor Taizong, but held it by himself.

Think about it, what the old man can't get, how can he Zhu Zhanji get it?

If he can get it, there are only two possibilities.

First, Zhu Zhanji has a way to crack the white phosphorous egg, and he is not worried that Zhu Zhanji will get the white phosphor.

Second, Zhu Zhanyan has a weapon that is more lethal and more effective, and can comprehensively suppress white phosphorous eggs.

"When are you leaving?" After thinking about all this, Zhu Zhanji also thought about it, and picked up the teacup and looked at his cousin.

"Come with you." Zhu Zhanyan also picked up the teacup and signaled.

"Don't think Daming is very important, for me, the greatest significance of Daming is the ancestral land of our Zhu family, and it is the place where the leaves will return to their roots in the future."

"But right now, I'm more focused on the West."

"Oh?" It was the first time that Zhu Zhanji had talked about these things with his cousin, which made the curiosity he had suppressed in his heart come up together.

"Actually, I can guess that you have put too much effort into Nanzhou Mansion and Xiangzhou Mansion over the years, at first I just thought that you were going to leave a place for the second uncle's vein, but then I realized that something was wrong."

"If it's just to have a place to stay, you won't go out of your way to clean up the remnants of Siam, Khmer and Nanzhang on the other side of Xiangzhou."

"Until later, when you went on an expedition to the Timurid Empire, it was a year to start, even if you returned to Shuntianfu...... Even if it is to go back to Xiangzhou Mansion, it is just a trip back to home. ”

"At that time, I had a faint feeling that you should have regarded Xiangzhou Mansion and Nanzhou Mansion as a supply station for your western expedition and as your backup."

"Actually, I'm sure of this idea now that you said it yourself, but why do you value it so much?"

Speaking of this, Zhu Zhanji's doubts were already overflowing.

He really didn't understand.

In fact, according to the ideas of normal people, whether it is an ancestral land or something else, it will definitely give priority to controlling the Central Plains, and it can be said that no one has ever thought of expanding the territory under the condition that the Central Plains is undecided.

This is true whether it is when the dynasty changes or when one's own family rebels.

But Zhu Zhanyan is the one who is unreasonable and does not play cards according to common sense.

Rooted in Yunnan, through his past military exploits, coupled with the new tax system and new grain, not to mention that he can slowly occupy the entire Ming Dynasty, but there is absolutely no problem south of Yingtianfu.

At that time, coupled with the fact that more than seventy percent of the people in Indochina are Han, Zhu Zhanyan can be said to have the chance to win, unless he has a brain, it is impossible to fail.

It's not that the current Zhu Zhanyan has the possibility of failure, but that compared with what Zhu Zhanyan did, the difficulty of this set is lower.

"You don't understand." Zhu Zhanyan smiled happily, his favorite was this time.

Not laughing at his cousin's ignorance, or because he was in the winner's position, but because someone had finally discovered his plan.

Be...... Laugh happily.

"Tell me something you can understand, and it's the easiest." Zhu Zhanyan put down the teacup and explained to his cousin with great interest.

"The world only knows that the west of the Central Plains is an endless desert and a formidable mountain, but as everyone knows, as long as you can cross the desert and climb over the mountains, you will see new scenery."

"There, the water system is abundant, there are too many endless plains, bigger than the Yangtze River, and even bigger than the Indochina Peninsula and Nanzhou Mansion!"

"Whether it's grazing or farming, it's going to be a battleground for soldiers."

……

The spring breeze with a little coolness brings warm spring colors, and its blowing makes the earth slowly wake up from the cold winter.

On the coal mountain, two men sat opposite each other and talked happily.

Zhang stood at the foot of the coal mountain, his expression a little blank.

In a trance, she seemed to see the scene of Yongle for ten years.

That year, Zhu Zhanqi, who had already followed his father to Yunnan, was summoned by Emperor Taizong to Yingtianfu, which was still the capital of the Ming Dynasty at that time, to celebrate the New Year.

Before leaving, Zhu Zhanji carried two wine jars and tried drinking with Zhu Zhanji for the first time in the courtyard of Chunhe Palace.

In an instant, a thought arose in Zhang's mind.

Back then, if the old man was not appeased, what good brothers would the first emperor and King Wu become......

If there is no martyrdom, will Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Zhanji ...... What about such a good brother?
