East Palace, main hall.

"Minister Zhu Di, meet the imperial grandson!"

Zhu Di's face was solemn, and he knelt down and bowed three times uprightly.

Zhu Yunxi showed a smile on his face: "Fourth uncle is exempt, you and I are even relatives, why do you have to do this?" ”

Zhu Di knelt there and said solemnly: "The courtesy of the monarch and the minister cannot be violated, when the minister meets his father, he will bow three times and bow nine times, and when he meets the prince of the East Palace, he will naturally bow down and bow three times." ”

This beating was not in vain, and I have a long memory.

Zhu Yunxi stood up and walked down the hall to help Zhu Di up: "Fourth uncle, please go to the apse and sit down, and let your nephew perform the family ceremony." ”

The front hall is for the office, and the apse is the home.

The number of rites is also divided into national rites and family rites.

The vassal king visited the emperor's grandson, and the emperor's grandson, as a nephew, should also salute his uncle and call him uncle, but he could not salute in front of people.

Zhu Di got up and said busily: "The grandson must not be like this, and he will kill the minister." ”

"Fourth uncle, you and I have a deep relationship with my uncle and nephew, my nephew often looked forward to the fourth uncle coming to the East Palace when he was young, how can there be such red tape today, you can just feel free."

With that, Zhu Yunxi invited Zhu Di to take a seat.

I'd like to ...... casually Zhu Di hurriedly said: "It used to be before, but now the monarch and the minister are different, the minister drank and committed a crime yesterday, and offended the grandson for a while, I hope the grandson will forgive the sin!" ”

"It's a trivial matter, Fourth Uncle, please take a seat."

"Emperor Xie's grandson!"

Zhu Di sat on the next chair, his hands on the handles, his expression a little relaxed.

Looking at the familiar scene, he said abruptly: "I think that the ministers often come to the East Palace and listen to the teachings of the eldest brother and the first prince, as if I remember it vividly. ”

Nowadays, things are people, and it is inevitable to see things hurt.

Zhu Yunxi knew that Zhu Di and Zhu Biao had an excellent relationship.

Seeing him like this, he said: "When my father was here, he often told me that the fourth uncle was not only proficient in the art of war, but also attached great importance to loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness, and was the most sensible of all the brothers. ”

While speaking, Zhu Yunxi ordered someone to pour tea and personally serve it to Zhu Di.

Then he continued: "My father said before the funeral that if I have the opportunity to inherit the unification in the future, I will definitely regard the fourth uncle as the Duke of Zhou. ”

Zhu Di's hand shook as he drank tea.

Zhou Gong Ji Dan is the fourth son of King Ji Chang of Zhou Wen and the younger brother of King Ji Fa of Zhou Wu.

is also the fourth, and he also did not have the position of the prince, and the Duke of Zhou honestly assisted his nephew to become the king, leaving a good name, which has been passed down through the ages, and has become a moral benchmark for monarchs and ministers throughout the ages.

Zhu Di was a little moved.

Missing the position of the prince, Duke Zhou is not bad, very attractive.

The important thing is to be able to say as much as the emperor!

But did the eldest brother really say that?

Thinking about it carefully, my father was optimistic about Yun Wei at that time.

How could the prince say such a thing to Yun Hee?

This kid must be making up nonsense to fool me! Test me!

Zhu Di's heart sank.

The heart said that this kid is so insidious!

"The imperial grandson laughed, how can the minister He De be like the Duke of Zhou."

In order to avoid embarrassment, Zhu Di took out a stack of bills similar to treasure money from his arms.

"Imperial grandson, this is a mortgage note of one million taels of silver, with which it can be exchanged for one million silver in major banks in Beiping."

As he spoke, he placed the ticket on the tea table.

In these years, there are no silver tickets, and even the money banks are pitiful, and there are few in the country.

Many businessmen do big business and cannot carry a large amount of money due to the inconvenience of roads.

They will put the money in the home of a reputable wealthy merchant such as Jingshi in advance, write a bill, and withdraw the money with the bill, which is the meeting ticket.

Zhu Di entered Beijing this time, worried that the robbery of Zhu Yunwen's silver would be detected by Jinyiwei, so he carried it with him to prevent his father from being held accountable.

Looking at this huge amount of money, Zhu Yunxi smiled and said, "Fourth uncle, I knew that the silver was intercepted by you." ”

Zhu Di said sullenly: "My father has already reprimanded me for this matter, so don't blame me." ”

Zhu Yunxi put this huge amount of money into his arms: "Fourth uncle, you misunderstood, I know that you are for my good, how can I blame you?" ”

Zhu Di: "? ”

Zhu Yunxi said while stuffing the ticket: "You robbed Yunxi's silver, you must have wanted to help me win the position of grandson, right?" ”

“......”

I'm a good fart for you!

My brain was kicked by a donkey to help you take the position of grandson?

It's clear that you have robbed me of the position of prince!

Zhu Di was about to cry to death.

He said with a bitter face: "That's what I thought at the time. ”

"Fourth uncle, thank you!"

Zhu Yunxi was preparing for a fleet to go to the West, and needed to purchase a large number of silk, porcelain and other goods, and he happened to be short of silver.

Thanksgiving to the God of Wealth!

"It's still the fourth uncle who is powerful, Yun Wei has been kept in the dark, unlike the third uncle who sent someone to rob me of my silver and threw people away."

Zhu Di raised his eyebrows: "Did the third child send someone to deal with you?" ”

Zhu Yunxi nodded and said with a smile: "The third uncle's 100 households have been arrested by me, and I haven't told the imperial grandfather yet." ”

Zhu Di secretly disdainful, you are pinching the third handle!

The third child's brain, what is it all about?

Shame on you!

Zhu Di diverted the sad topic and said, "Taisun, I heard that you have a magic machine battalion and want to train soldiers, how did the fourth uncle teach you?" ”

When it comes to leading troops to fight, he is very confident.

This time, I must let my nephew see the mighty side of the fourth uncle!

Zhu Yunxi said with a smile: "No need, there are Liang Guogong, Ying Guogong, and Song Guogong to teach me, so I don't have to trouble the fourth uncle." ”

“......”

The smile on Zhu Di's face gradually solidified.

Compared with the war, he is still one rank behind Lan Yu.

I don't even have a chance to pretend to be forced, it's so fucking sad!

"By the way, Fourth Uncle, Grandpa asked me to inspect the Nine Sides after a while, and then I will see the Fourth Uncle train the troops, how about it?"

After receiving the money, Zhu Yunxi was in a good mood.

"You're going to patrol the Nine Sides?" Zhu Di was taken aback.

Inspect the nine sides, this is to let the border army recognize the prince!

The father is strengthening the prestige of the imperial grandson in the border army!

"yes, grandpa asked me to go."

Daddy, you're too good to this grandson, aren't you?

Zhu Di's heart was sour, and he said: "Taisun, is there any reward for sending you so much silver?" ”

"Absolutely! Fourth uncle, my nephew wants to invite you to watch a show. Zhu Yunxi said.

"I don't like to listen to dramas, it's crooked!"

"Lonely play, not crooked."

"Let's go! Go now! ”

Zhu Di also wanted to see what kind of drama the grandson wanted to sing.

But I heard Zhu Yunxi say: "I can't watch it now, I have to wait for two days, and then I will send someone to your house to inform you, and our uncle and nephew will go to see it together." ”

"What kind of drama do you have to wait?" Zhu Di was puzzled.

But since the grandson said it, let's wait for two days!

......

Jingshi, Yanwangfu.

On the Taishi's chair, Zhu Di looked tired.

A monk dressed in black walked in and retreated.

Yao Guangxiao asked: "His Royal Highness King Yan, how is the situation in the palace?" ”

Zhu Di sighed and said lazily: "The status of the monarch and the minister is determined, let's go back after playing in Beijing for a few days." ”

He was half-lying, as if he had given up on treatment.

"His Royal Highness King Yan, you ......"

In Yao Guangxiao's view, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, is a fierce tiger who is full of energy all the time.

Why is it sluggish today?

That's not good!

He vaguely guessed that this time he entered the palace, and King Yan was hit.

It was Emperor Hongwu who hit him!

"The imperial grandson is just a weak young man, and he has no talent to reign over the world."

As soon as Yao Guangxiao came out, he was shocked.

He said this mainly to appease Zhu Di.

Seeing that Zhu Di's face was slightly softened, Yao Guangxiao continued: "This change in the capital division is caused by the selfishness of the emperor's grandson, if such a person becomes the emperor, I am afraid that the kings will be difficult to convince." ”

He added: "Especially the two kings of Qin and Jin, how can they obey him? ”

After the canonization of the emperor's grandson, the kings of Qin and Jin had already complained.

Zhu Di was hundreds of miles away, and he could see their unhappy expressions.

However, what can I do if I am not happy?

Originally, Zhu Di didn't know his father's attitude, thinking that he had a chance to fight.

But this time when he entered the palace, he knew that he had no chance.

Today, the father and son talked, and the father spoke from the bottom of his heart.

Zhu Di knew that if he was no longer sensible in the future, he was afraid that his father would dig out his heart with his own hands......

Yao Guangxiao continued: "The emperor's grandson is full of human desires, and after this incident, he has cleaned up the civil officials, how can he rest assured that the vassal king who guards the northern part of the country has a strong army? ”

"For him Zhu Yunxi, Wuxun is his own person, civil officials are stumbling blocks, and kings are also threats, but I am afraid that soon, he will propose to cut the domain."

The word "cutting the domain" is like a sharp blade, which goes straight into Zhu Di's heart.

He couldn't help but sit up straight.

At this time, Yao Guangxiao's voice suddenly rose: "When the time comes, your King Yan will not make mistakes, and he will also find a reason to move you!" ”

Zhu Di couldn't help but be annoyed.

This kid has been hiding it quite deeply over the years, why didn't I see it back then?
