Chapter 226: The Big Fish Behind It
Zhu Gaoxu was a little puzzled.
"But what does this have to do with the Lu family's possible murder of the crown prince?"
He Qiu smiled and said.
"It's a big deal! Back then, Lu's father was punished by His Majesty for corruption, have you ever seen your uncle help intercede? ”
"At the beginning, Lu Ben was doing labor on the construction site and lost half of his life, but the prince didn't make a sound to help and plead, you must know that when many courtiers were punished, the prince also spoke out."
"In the end, it was the Chang family who helped the Lu family persuade the prince, and the prince finally spoke out to help Lu Ben intercede, and His Majesty didn't let Lu Ben do hard labor anymore, otherwise it might have been gone that year."
Zhu Gaochi thought about it and said.
"But why is the Lu family also the prince's side concubine, my uncle won't treat her father so coldly, right?"
He Qiu smiled.
"You don't care how old your uncle was at the time, if Lu Ben made a mistake because of his position, maybe the prince would help to intercede, but corruption and cutting corners are what the prince also hated at the beginning."
"What's more, in the palace, the prince and Chang's Qinse and Ming, and the Lu family have no relationship, can give birth to Zhu Yunwen, or Chang's family doesn't want to have a reputation for jealousy."
Zhu Gaoxu was even more puzzled and couldn't wait to ask.
"Then you have to look at it this way, so the crown princess Chang does have great kindness to the Lu family, and even my uncle treats her well, how can this woman have such thoughts?"
He Qiu said lightly.
"You must know that in this world, if you are not good to others, others will be truly grateful, and many people will take this as a deserved, and even think that if you don't help her in the first place, you should die, I'm afraid that the Lu family is such a person."
Zhu Gaochi scolded: "Poisonous woman! Femme fatale! ”
He Qiu waved his hand.
"It's not time to scold yet, I'm just guessing, I can't take it seriously."
Zhu Gaoxu pouted and said.
"I think this is eighty percent true, just looking at Zhu Yunwen's mean appearance, he must have followed the Lu family. Besides, since the Chang family does have kindness to the Lu family, when Chang Mao wants to go to the East Palace, he should not refuse. ”
He Qiule was happy, "What if it's just that the Lu family thinks that Chang Mao is a threat to the grandson?" In that case, isn't it normal not to want to see each other? ”
Zhu Gaoxu muttered.
"Anyway, I think it's the Lu family now, and just now you were the brother-in-law you said the Lu family, and now you excuse her again, isn't this a trick on us?"
Zhu Gaochi on the side comforted.
"Brother-in-law, this is also to allow us to think independently, have our own ideas, and we can't say what others say, so we can believe what we believe, right? Right, brother-in-law? ”
He Qiu touched Zhu Gaochi's head and said happily.
"Gao Chi still understands me, Gao Xu, you still have to learn from your brother."
Zhu Gaoxu said to himself.
"It's too disadvantageous to ask for money, it's still fun to fight, just take the soldiers and kill them directly."
He Qiu looked at Zhu Gaoxu, who was still hard-mouthed, is this just tsundere?
"Do you want to be a warrior all your life, don't you want to be a talent in the field?"
Zhu Gaoxu blinked his eyes, thought about it, and responded to the grievances.
"I'll just learn more from him in the future."
Zhu Gaochi didn't care about this, he was more concerned about what He Qiu said just now, and asked He Qiu hesitantly.
"Brother-in-law, if this speculation you said is true, don't we care? Let the Lu family mother and son make waves here, and completely cover up the cause of my uncle's death? ”
He Qiu smiled softly and said quite confidently.
"Now that I have guessed that it may have something to do with her, I can always find the horse's feet with more attention. What's more, even if this matter is true, we can't pick it out, if we want to punish the Lu family, we have to change our name, we can't tell the world that the crown princess and concubine plotted to kill the prince? ”
"This is more unacceptable than King Jin's murder of the prince, if this is the case, the folk rumors will only be more ugly, and maybe someone will pour dirty water on the prince or the Son of Heaven."
Zhu Gaochi was still a little dissatisfied.
"It's really cheaper for the Lu family."
He Qiu looked at the two boys in front of him and smiled, he was still too young, how could there be so many neat things in this matter, most of them still needed to be compromised.
persuaded the two Zhu Gaochi brothers out of the study, let them read with peace of mind, don't always think about these problems, if you have ideas, you can write a few letters with Zhu Di to ask, but be sure to use ciphertext.
Zhu Gaochi and the two agreed very sensibly, after all, such a thing is really not suitable to resort to words, in case it is known, it will be a discord between the feelings of the heavenly family, and even because of their identity, it will make people feel that it is a propaganda strategy prepared by Zhu Di who wants to seize the throne.
At that time, Zhu Di couldn't explain clearly.
When the two of them went out, He Qiu sat back in his seat, and then fell into deep thought again.
In fact, He Qiu was particularly suspicious of Zhu Yuanzhang's Wenchen from the beginning of his involvement in the murder of the crown prince.
After all, what Zhu Yuanzhang wants to move is the interests of the entire bureaucratic system, and the land issue that has been entangled for thousands of years, although his reform can indeed benefit some people, but the people who lose their interests have more power in their hands, and it is not surprising that they can do anything.
Not to mention, in the final Ming Dynasty, there were more unknown emperors who died, and the future Wuzong was not just after falling into the water, he was fine, but suddenly died of a serious illness?
Now although Zhu Yuanzhang has a very high prestige and is the founder of the country, but he can't move Zhu Yuanzhang, can't he move you Zhu Biao?
What's more, Zhu Biao is also so inclined to reform, if he is really allowed to succeed to the throne, I am afraid that it will be decades of reform.
When it really comes to that point, even if these civil officials don't accept it, they will also be set as the ancestral system, and they will not be able to move easily.
But at that time, He Qiu still felt that it was unlikely, after all, these civil officials could kill Zhu Biao, how could they guarantee that the successor would be a candidate in their interests?
If there is the Lu family, then everything can be explained.
She has been by Zhu Biao's side all the year round, and she has an understanding of the deep relationship between Zhu Biao and Zhu Yuanzhang, and the depth of the father-son relationship between these two is far beyond that of ordinary heavenly father and son.
is out of guilt, or compensation psychology, Zhu Yuanzhang will definitely push the prince's heir as the prince, as long as Zhu Yunwen shows enough filial piety during this period, then his position as the prince can be stabilized.
Maybe there is also the intervention of the eunuch forces, although in the Hongwu Dynasty, the eunuchs basically had no voice, but it does not mean that they did not have their own demands, and they cut their hearts ruthlessly, is it just to come to the palace to serve people?
They are also eager for power, but Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't give them a chance, and Zhu Biao doesn't think much of the eunuchs, although he has a good attitude towards them, he won't give them real power.
If there is Lu Shi on the side, I am afraid that there will really be ghosts who will help her do things.
