Zhu Gaochi thought that this matter had nothing to do with him, and it wasn't until Zhu Di found him that he knew that he was naïve.

Zhu Di wants to repair the relationship with the second and third brothers.

How to fix it?

Let.

What to use to make profits? Steam engine.

"Boss, you have to know a truth, the world is the most important." Zhu Di emphasized heavily.

"My son didn't understand."

Zhu Gaochi couldn't keep up with Zhu Di's train of thought.

"Duke Liangguo must be removed, with our understanding of your imperial grandfather, your imperial grandfather's temperament will not tolerate Lan Yu."

"And Liang Guogong's style, no one can subdue him."

"Uncle Ling died of illness, but your imperial grandfather did not issue an edict to the vassal king to enter Beijing, and it has already shown your imperial grandfather's thoughts, and he wants to choose from your uncle's heirs."

"The crown prince's line, most of them are important ministers of the imperial court, your imperial grandfather needs to be stable and superordinate, but Wuxun is a little out of control under the influence of the Duke of Liangguo."

"The emperor's grandfather wants to attack Lan Yu, a matter of will, what does it matter to us, and we also need my father to befriend the second and third uncles."

It's not impossible for the steam engine to be copied by others.

But you want to make a profit.

How to make a profit, Zhu Gaochi is still thinking.

In fact, from another point of view, there are benefits.

Because of the King of Qin and the King of Jin, the two of them will not live long.

Although King Jin had some conflicts with his father, they were only private, and they still maintained contacts on the whole, and they were decent to each other.

Moreover, Shanxi is the main coal mining area, which can be said to be the most important link.

If you can cooperate with the Jin Wangfu, first open the market, and wait for the death of the Jin Wangfu, in terms of the right to speak, wouldn't it be cheaper for the Yan Wangfu.

King Yan's Mansion can crush King Jin to death by virtue of the identity of Zhu Di's elder.

King Qin is the most difficult to contact and the most ambitious.

However, Shaanxi's coal resources are not as important as Shanxi's, and the profits of steam engines are far less than Shanxi's.

Moreover, King Qin died early, and he could not live for three years.

The Qin Wangfu is now weak in its own right, and when the Qin King dies, in business, it will be even more Yanwangfu's words.

And there are quite a few other benefits for the rest.

Compared to Shandong.

Shanxi Shaanxi is in the west of Beiping, far away from Yingtianfu.

In the Battle of Jingyan, neither of these places contributed much strength to the imperial court, and in the Battle of Jingjing, the south was the biggest source of strength for Ying Tianfu.

It provided countless materials and troops for Ying Tianfu.

So can you use business matters to bring the power of these two places over in advance, so that these two places have maintained a neutral attitude for most of the history and become the end to help Yan Wangfu.

It's not impossible.

If we can draw the forces of Shanxi and Shaanxi into our hands, the situation will be able to undergo earth-shaking changes.

The Battle of Jingjing will not be so difficult that it will make Da Ming break his muscles and bones.

Compared with Shandong, Shanxi is more favorable than Shandong.

Moreover, although Shandong is the coal and iron center in the north of the Ming Dynasty, the development of coal mining is not good, but the rest of the areas have not developed.

For example, the coal industry in Beiping was forced to a dead end after the forests around Beiping were cut down, and the development of coal began.

In the Hereafter.

Shandong accounts for most of the coal wells with a depth of more than 1,000 meters in the country.

Shandong's coal seam is deep, difficult to mine, and has high potential safety hazards, and it is the area that is most threatened by natural disasters such as water, fire, gas, and rock burst in later generations.

Among the major coal-producing regions, Shandong's mining conditions are poor, even the technology of later generations, not to mention today's Ming Dynasty.

In the past, he was worried about the King of Jin in Shanxi and the King of Qin in Shaanxi.

In the early Ming Dynasty, the forces of the landlord class, who dared to come forward to imitate their own business, Zhu Gaochi dared to appear one by one.

It's not a problem that one person can hit ten.

But if the Qin Wangfu and the Jin Wangfu end, Zhu Gaochi can only be in a hurry.

Therefore, Zhu Gaochi gave up Shanxi, which is more abundant in coal resources, and chose Shandong, which is relatively inferior to coal mines.

Now that Zhu Di wants to restore the relationship with the two kings, the situation has changed again, and it is natural to reconsider.

If the relationship is restored and reconciled, the eating appearance of each family must be civilized.

As long as the charter is set at the beginning, no one will default at will.

"Where is the state affairs as simple as you think, what if Lan Yu leads the army to rebel on the front line?"

"Do you want the Southwest? Even if the blue jade is calmed, we will have to bear a lot of losses. ”

If the opponent is Lan Yu and the elite army he leads, Zhu Di actually doesn't have much confidence.

"He dares to rebel? Can the army listen to him? ”

Zhu Gaochi was a little skeptical.

Zhu Di did not answer.

There are some things that you are not afraid of 10,000, but you are afraid of what happens.

If the father wants to cut off Lan Yu, he will definitely be fully prepared and not give Lan Yu a chance to discover and fight back.

"There's no urgency in this matter, you can think about it." Seeing the attitude of the eldest son, Zhu Di thought that the boss was unwilling.

"My son agrees." Zhu Gaochi asked, "Do you want to give the steam engine directly to someone else?" ”

Zhu Di shook his head.

"It's friendship, not flattery."

"According to what you said, in business, with the rules of business, in Shaanxi you can join forces with your second uncle, and in Shanxi you can join forces with your third uncle, and everyone can earn money together."

Hearing this, Zhu Gaochi became happy.

"There is no problem on the son's side, when the father and the third uncle reconcile, the son will send someone to talk."

……

Ying Tianfu.

In just a few months, the old man in the palace seemed to be ten years old.

He could feel it.

The body's energy is draining, and the processing is getting slower and slower, and at night, it is difficult to work with candles, and often yawns.

Just like the departure of his most beloved wife, after the eldest son who had spent his life hard to cultivate, Zhu Yuanzhang still did not change, and he has been cultivating national affairs for decades.

"Lanyu, how did you become like this."

Zhu Yuanzhang's old eyes fell into confusion.

He also gave a lot of opportunities to this beloved general and cultivated him.

Lan Yu did not disappoint him and made great achievements for the country.

But he gave him many opportunities and asked him to lead the troops countless times, but he quietly created a group of Yizi generals who looked forward to him.

He ordered the attack on the pass, and his generals, no one persuaded him, and he carried out the military order without hesitation.

What did he want to do.

"Ugh." Zhu Yuanzhang sighed.

Lan Yu lived up to his trust and cultivation in him, and also missed the good story of the eternal monarchs.

He shouldn't have handed over the war in the southwest to Lan Yu.

Unexpectedly, his courage has reached this point, and he dared to support the army to force himself to become the emperor's grandson, and he is no longer the likable young general he was back then.

He is indeed considering the establishment of the emperor's grandson, although the prince is a subordinate of the East Palace, he is also an important minister of the court.

For the sake of social stability, I can't think about my sons anymore.

Did you order the second child to be the prince? For the second child, Zhu Yuanzhang has long been discouraged.

Don't set up the second, set up the third? What does the fourth think? What about the prince's line, and the courtiers.

Only the Emperor Taisun is the best.

can be the emperor's grandson, it can't be Lan Yu who forced himself to set up.

"Sappy."

Zhu Yuanzhang muttered.

Who is Sappy's opponent?

Among those nobles, how many of them are biased towards blue jade, and how many of them are still interested in the imperial court?

The matter of blue jade made Zhu Yuanzhang no longer trust Xungui.

Lan Yu can have today's arrogance and his character, and it is inseparable from the words of the noble generals to him, which gave him the confidence to be arrogant.

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned.

can only rely on the sons, but the second child is a waste, the third eye is above the top, and he is also a waste, only the fourth child can handle it.

It's hard to stand alone.

The three sons have long been not as close as when they were children, and they have dismantled each other for many years, and the relationship is not harmonious.

The second child was not convinced.

It's not pleasing to anyone.

The third child has a lot of small actions, and in front of the boss, he either speaks ill of the second child or the third child, thinking that no one else knows.

Thinking of his sons, Zhu Yuanzhang thought of the queen again.

When his wife was alive, she said dissatisfiedly: "The boss's head is a little too big; The bridge of the second child's nose is too concave; The fifth child is even worse, and his eyebrows and eyes are stupid; There are only the third and fourth children, and they like to look good. ”

But the old three can't make it.

He had high hopes for him, supplied him with countless supplies in advance, ordered him to lead the army into battle, and arranged for him to be escorted by a general.

Such favorable conditions have not been accomplished.

Even if it's a small victory, it's not.

Can't count on him.

The fourth.

Thinking of Zhu Di, Zhu Yuanzhang asked people to take the dense sparseness of Beiping.

After flipping through a few books, when I looked at the latest one, I couldn't help but laugh dumbly.

"The fourth child is still a tool, and he knows what to focus on."

"I have the ability, and I have a group of wise talents around me, so it depends on how he eases the relationship with his two brothers."

Zhu Yuanzhang knew all about the confidential matters of Yanwang's Mansion.

Who revealed it to him?

Or.

The Jinyi guard in the Yanwang Mansion, what means are used.

Not to mention all kinds of things, Zhu Yuanzhang let go of the secrets, and according to the plan of the fourth child, he also came up with a plan.

Beiping-Shanxi-Shaanxi.

Clean sweep.

It's time to reward the guards of Beiping.

Zhu Yuanzhang's brows furrowed, no longer bothering about Lan Yu's affairs.

August.

It was ordered that a large number of nobles such as Song Guogong went to the local government to recruit people as soldiers and defend Tuntian, such a good thing, and the nobles naturally went eagerly.

September.

Zhu Yunwen, the son of the crown prince Zhu Biao, was appointed as the emperor's grandson.

Late October.

Lan Yu led a large army to besiege the Yuelu Timurid coalition army.

Feng Sheng, the prince of the Song Dynasty, was appointed as the crown prince and prince.

Liliang Guogong Lanyu is the crown prince.

……

Early November.

Lan Yu completely quelled the rebellion and led the captured chieftain to return to the court.

Subsequently.

Issued an edict to all the nobles to enter Shaanxi.

Inspect the guard station, train the recruits, and defend the tuntian......

Everything seemed to be irrelevant, and no one in the martial arts suspected it, thinking that it was the emperor's trust and the matter of the Qin King of Xi'an, so they let them replace the Qin King.

Jinyiwei commanded Jiang Xian to enter the palace.

"Liang Guogong was not satisfied with the sage's reward, and said to his cronies in public, can't he be a prince?"

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand.

He didn't want to give Lan Yu another chance.
