Yunnan.

On the bank of Dianchi Lake, sitting on the balcony on the second floor that he once liked his favorite, looking at the Dianchi Lake not far away, Zhu Zhanyan's mood was very calm.

Almost no one knows that after attending his brother's wedding, Zhu Zhan Yan did not return to Shuntian with the fleet, but returned to Yunnan and returned to the former Wu Wangfu.

Although it has been uninhabited for several years, the palace of King Wu is still tidy and cleaned.

"Let him bask in the sun less, Yunnan is different from Shuntian, the sun here is poisonous."

Looking at Hu Shanshu, who was playing with his son below, Zhu Zhanyan opened his mouth to remind.

"Didn't you stay in Yunnan and forget your previous crimes?"

Yunnan is indeed a good place, but the ultraviolet rays are very strong, it is easy to get sunburned, if it is an adult, it is just a few days at most, and adults basically do not get sunburned at this time.

But children are different.

"Mother......" Hearing his father's words, Zhu Qiming's mouth was deflated.

Children can generally speak when they are eight months to one year old, and those who are a little later will be delayed to two years old, and Zhu Qiming can be regarded as speaking early.

However, it is true that they can speak, but they cannot understand what adults say, but they can only react to what adults say.

Therefore, Zhu Qiming didn't puff his mouth because Zhu Zhanyan didn't let him play below, but because he heard Zhu Zhanyan's voice.

may be because he has too little time with Zhu Zhanyan, Zhu Qiming is not close to Zhu Zhanyan at all, and this is more than that.

In Zhu Qiming's eyes, his father seems to be some kind of flood beast, he is afraid when he sees his father, and he has to cry when he hears his father speak.

"It's okay, it's okay......" Hu Shanshu coaxed her son with tears and laughter.

She is also very worried about her son, she has heard of children who are not close to their father, but it is the first time she has seen her son who is not so close.

While coaxing the child, he stood up, and Hu Shanshu looked at her husband with a smile and a smile.

"Your Highness, you said that you know that he is easy to cry, so you have to provoke him."

Hu Sun-sook now feels like she is not taking one child, but two children.

Zhu Zhanyan usually gives people a bad impression, even frightening, Hu Shanshu used to think so, but since having a child, Hu Shanshu found that she didn't know her husband.

Little did she know that her husband would put down all his pretense and tease the children when he came home.

She never knew that her husband also liked to play, and liked to make the child cry and laugh on the sidelines.

Little did she know that her husband would also take his children to dig small canals and play in the mud in the garden of the Sooncheon Palace.

Thinking of this, the crying and laughing expression on Hu Shanshu's face suddenly changed to a gentle smile, and she walked upstairs with the child in her arms.

This kid, you still have to take it slowly, and Zhu Qiming is a little too repulsive to Zhu Zhanyan, how can this work?

It's just that before Hu Shanshu walked into the first floor with the child in her arms, the arrival of a person made her stop and walk to the backyard instead.

"Coming?" Zhu Zhanyan glanced at Zheng He, who walked into the courtyard.

"Come on."

"Yes......" Zheng He bowed his head in response.

……

The balcony on the second floor of King Wu's Mansion is actually a very good place, if it is in the future generations, it is estimated that it will become some Internet celebrity check-in point, viewing point and other places.

But now, it's not just a person who can enter here, and even if you do, I'm afraid you can't just look at it.

It's like Zheng He now.

"It's not a small amount of courage." Zhu Zhanyan held the teacup, looked at the Dianchi Lake not far away, and said lightly.

……

Zheng He didn't say a word.

Although Zhu Zhanyan's tone was flat, it was actually interrogation.

Zheng He is a person who has no faction, but he is firmly factional.

Zheng He has always stood behind the emperor, but he is not loyal to a certain emperor, but to the title of emperor.

In short, no matter who is the emperor, Zheng He will be very loyal, and now he dares to take the risk of preparing a way back for the orthodox emperor, and if Zhu Zhanyan ascends the throne in the future, he will also be as loyal to Zhu Zhanyan as he is now.

However, this is obviously not what Zhu Zhanyan wants to see.

He let Zheng He go back to Yunnan to retire because Zheng He worked hard and made great achievements, which not only laid the foundation for the Ming Dynasty of the Yongle Dynasty to shock overseas, but also laid the foundation for Zhu Zhan's overseas development.

But he didn't expect that Zheng He would be so axial.

To put it nicely, it is because he doesn't want the Daming clan to kill each other, but if it is ugly, he just doesn't know the times.

"Alas...... You're talking about you. Zheng He didn't reply, and Zhu Zhanyan didn't care, he put down the teacup and retracted his gaze, with a little pity in his tone.

"I ask you, do you really think orthodoxy is so important? Or is it more important to be able to lead Daming to a bright future? ”

"Or, do you think I'm like the good flower girl, who should stand and stand?"

……

Zheng He was still silent with his head down.

He didn't know what to say.

In fact, when Zhu Zhanyan's first question was spoken, Zheng He was a little confused.

Is orthodoxy important or is the future of the Ming Dynasty important?

Zheng He had a clear answer in his heart, just like Emperor Taizong raised troops and was in trouble.

If Emperor Taizong did not raise troops to make it difficult, but let Emperor Huiwen cut the domain, what would the final result look like?

Other Zheng He didn't know, but he knew that with the pattern of Emperor Huiwen and his officials such as Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai, he would definitely not be able to reach the height of Emperor Taizong.

Some people say that Emperor Huiwen is either stupid or ruthless, he is to shake the foundation of the Ming Dynasty at the cost of sitting in his position, if his strategy of cutting the domain is really successful, compared with the Hongwu Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty will be at least half weak.

What about Zhu Zhanyan?

In fact, Zheng He has always felt that Zhu Zhanyan will be a qualified emperor, because Zhu Zhanyan's vision is broad enough and ruthless enough, so that such a person can sit firmly on the throne and lead the Ming Dynasty to a broader future.

But this did not prevent him from thinking that Zhu Zhanyan was pretentious.

Like everyone, Zheng He also felt that Zhu Zhanyan had a plan, but he showed a passive attitude to everyone everywhere, making everyone feel that he, like Emperor Taizong, had to do it as a last resort.

But looking at it now, is that really the case?

Zheng He didn't know.

"Alright, let's go back." Just when Zheng He bowed his head and was silent, Zhu Zhanyan spoke.

"Originally, according to what you did, I should have punished you well, but I remembered your exploits in the West back then, so I decided to forget it."

"However, if you make a mistake, you will definitely pay a price."

As he spoke, Zhu Zhanyan beckoned, and Zhu Ling quickly walked to the edge of the balcony and beckoned to the prince's guards below.

Zheng He will spend the rest of his life under surveillance.

It's not good, but it's not bad either.
