Chapter 174: The Human Heart
Seeing his son come back, Chai Quan was a little surprised, but still very excited, for the sake of the throne, the father and son have not seen each other for ten years, after dinner, called his son to the study, and asked kindly: Tong'er, why did you come back suddenly? Have you received a letter from your father?
Chai Tong glanced at his father with a kind face, and couldn't figure out why his father usurped the throne, so he replied with a smile: I received it, the lord received the letter, and the son didn't understand, so he came back to ask his father for clarification.
Chai Quan was quite surprised and asked: What does my son not understand, is it not clear what his father said in the letter?
It's not that I don't know, but it's just that the letter says that the father wants his sons to be ready at any time, and why is this to prepare for the attack on the capital?
Hmph, after hearing his son's words, Chai Quan's face turned pale, and he said with some anger: What is it called to commit rebellion? What is treason? The Son of Heaven has no virtue, and my father just wants to replace him, otherwise I will be defeated in his hands sooner or later, and I will do this not only for the dawn of the world, but also for your son! That generation was not fought for that generation, and now you and I, father and son, have this great opportunity, what are you waiting for? Don't you want to be the emperor? Don't you want to be the emperor of the Ninth Five-Year Plan and the supreme right?
Chai Tong didn't expect his father to say such a rebellious thing, and the shock in his heart couldn't be described in words, he originally thought that his father was just confused for a while, but now it seems that he is only afraid that his father has a plan, otherwise he will not be sent to the border from the age of sixteen.
But he still didn't want to believe that this was the truth, and said: Why should my father be like this, in a few years, won't this supreme throne be in the hands of your own grandson? What's the difference?
Of course it's different! Tong'er, you are confused! Your sister's child, what does it have to do with my Chai family, at best, it is just a little family affection, if it happens, you will be the emperor of my Ming Dynasty in the future, what a glorious thing!
The more Chai Tong listened, the more frightened he became, he couldn't imagine that his father was actually a man who did everything, and even a little ruthless, when he thought of his sister and lovely nephew, he asked worriedly: What about my sister and my nephew? What does my father plan to do with them?
Tong'er, don't worry, no matter what, your sister is always my daughter, and my father will not be ruthless to the point where he can't tolerate them, and when the time comes, I will properly arrange their mother and mother, so that they can enjoy the glory and wealth.
But father, Chai Tong wanted to say more, but was interrupted impatiently by his father Chai Quan: Okay, Tong'er, you have thought too much, your father knows that you are kind-hearted, and your father does not embarrass you, you just listen to your father's words, you don't have to worry about the rest, your father will do it for you, you just need to be called emperor when the time comes, so that your father is dead, and you can smile at Jiuquan. Ha ha!
You have a night's rest today, and you will go back tomorrow, as long as you stabilize the border army, you don't have to worry about the affairs of the capital, did you hear it?
Chai Tong had no choice but to agree, silently withdrew, Chai Quan looked at his son's preoccupation, shook his head angrily and muttered: Alas, after all, my son is still too kind, I haven't taught well in the past ten years, and I don't know if it's right or wrong.
Early the next morning, Chai Tong finally came back, of course, to see his sister and nephew, into the palace, see that his sister still has a picture of nothing to do, very distressed, and then look at the innocent nephew, he really can't bear it in his heart, but he can't say it clearly, with a heavy heart, farewell to his sister, go to the border, along the way to think about it, he must not let his father's conspiracy succeed, even if the father and son turn against each other, the mind is decided, and the heart suddenly settled.
The news in the palace leaked quickly, Chai Quan and the second prince knew that the emperor was trying his best to find a strange person to see Zhu Ziming, and obviously decided to pass on the throne to Zhu Ziming, although he was angry, but there was no way, and now the only way is to draw salary from the bottom of the kettle, kill Zhu Ziming, and see how he passes.
That day and night, they sent the masters of the network in the rivers and lakes to enter the Ming Mansion at night and plan to kill Zhu Ziming, but they didn't know that Zhu Ziming had peerless martial arts in his heart, and there were many masters in the mansion.
Of course, this matter can not be concealed by the different surname Wang Chai Quan, he sneered, and then invited a cold soul to tell him to do it in three days, be sure to hit it with one blow, and kill the Ming Mansion without leaving a chicken dog.
When the eldest prince and the second prince sent to kill all the people by Zhu Ziming and others, Zhu Ziming stood in the courtyard, smelling the blood in the air and woke up, he was a little nauseated, a gust of cold wind blew, and suddenly a cold air came out of his heart, and immediately he made up his mind, in order not to kill, he must stay away from here, otherwise the killing will never stop, but he is afraid that after he does not say goodbye, the emperor Zhu Houzhao kills people indiscriminately, whether to go or stay for a while There is no idea.
Thinking about it, he was out of his mind, until Xiao Gu came to him with a frightened face and asked tremblingly: "Young master, what the hell is going on? Why did they kill us? What should these corpses do now?"
Because they want me to die!" Zhu Ziming said flatly, as for these corpses to be pulled outside the mansion gate to find a place to bury them, Xiao Gu has suffered you.
It doesn't matter if it's bitter, it's just that Xiao Gu doesn't understand why they want you to die?
Zhu Ziming didn't know how to answer, so he smiled bitterly and said: Alas, it's hard to say anything! Xiao Gu, you still don't ask, you don't understand this matter!
Oh, then young master, be careful! I'm busy, maybe I'm looking for a broom, maybe I'm looking for a cart, and I'm going away.
Late the next night, in the prince's mansion, a young man dressed in bright yellow brocade stood quietly in front of the window, listening to the sound of rain outside, his face was blue for a while, white for a while, and he didn't know what he was thinking?
Since Zhu Ziming's return, he has been preoccupied all day long, intentionally or unintentionally inquiring about Zhu Ziming's news, when he learned that his father intended to abolish his crown prince and re-establish Zhu Ziming, the viciousness in his heart is no less than that of the eldest prince and the second prince, and he wants to kill Zhu Ziming and then quickly, the reason why he has not done it for a long time is because he concluded that the eldest prince and the second prince must not help but take a step before him, let them explore the truth first, he thought so, and did so, which is where he is smart.
Sure enough, the eldest prince and the second prince made the first move, originally he thought that killing Zhu Ziming without the protection of his father was as simple as pinching an ant to death, but it turned out that he was wrong, and he was so wrong that he wanted to slap himself twice, if he was so careless and underestimated the enemy, he was afraid that so many years of forbearance would be in vain.
He was enduring it first, he must hit it with one blow, he secretly planned a conspiracy, a conspiracy that was enough to kill Zhu Ziming, he beckoned behind him, and a black shadow flashed in, putting his ear to his mouth and not knowing what to say, after a while, the black shadow flashed out, looking at the invisible black shadow, his innocent face was hideous.
As soon as the sky was bright the next day, in the Ming Mansion, Zhu Ziming and others were discussing something, and suddenly Xiao Gu slowly entered with a letter, and handed the letter to Zhu Ziming, saying that it was sent by the palace in the palace, Zhu Ziming was a little surprised, and tore it open to see, it was no one else, it was the fifth brother he loved the most since he was a child, and the current prince sent it, the approximate content of the letter is, I haven't seen you for many years, I miss it very much, I look forward to seeing you tonight, and the time and place are attached below.
After reading the letter, Zhu Ziming smiled slightly, this kind of smile is a smile from the heart, everyone thinks it is incredible, this is Zhu Ziming's first smile from the inside in two years, Zhu Ziming explained the content of the letter, and went out alone, slowly came to the largest restaurant in the capital: "Wangxiang Building" At this time, the entire restaurant was emptied, the prince saw Zhu Ziming from a distance, a hint of a sinister smile passed the corner of his mouth, hurriedly went downstairs to Zhu Ziming, hugged Zhu Ziming and cried bitterly, Zhu Ziming was moved, after a slight greeting, he pulled Zhu Ziming upstairs with one hand, the two sat down, and the prince said: Third brother, you have been there in the past few years, and your younger brother has been thinking so hard!
Zhu Ziming smiled bitterly and said: Alas, it's hard to say in a word! Fifth brother, are you doing well?
The prince pretended to smile bitterly and said: "It's not good! Third brother, you don't know, after you are gone, the eldest brother and the second brother want me to die early, how can I live well?
Zhu Ziming really loves this younger brother, and when he heard that he was bullied by the eldest and second brother, his face instantly turned blue and murderous.
Of course, the crown prince also felt it, he was a little moved, he knew that Zhu Ziming still loved him, and he couldn't help but think in his heart, if it weren't for the throne, how could I try to put you to death? Third brother, don't blame my younger brother, blame you and I shouldn't have been born in the emperor's house! Holding back tears, he picked up the wine glass and said: Don't talk about the third brother, now that you have returned safely, the fifth brother, I am so happy to die, come to my brother's toast to you, and drink it all first.
Zhu Ziming was angry in his heart at this time, he took the wine and drank it all, and pressed the wine glass heavily on the table, the guards were shocked, and the prince was also very shocked.
The two of you drank and chatted back and forth, and before you knew it was night, the prince took one last look at Zhu Ziming, hardened his heart, and glanced at the dark place, and suddenly the strong wind galloped in, Zhu Ziming snorted coldly in his heart and said: Protect the prince, he will spread his true qi all over his body, and with a wave of his hand, all 10,000 hidden weapons will land, and then all around is the sound of strong wind, Zhu Ziming knows that the people who come are not only strong in martial arts, but also a lot of people, it is really good to use them to vent their anger, and instantly release their true qi, and the hotel immediately froze, and the shot was ruthless, and the move was killed, and the person who was recruited was frozen into an ice sculpture, scattered with the wind, leaving no traceใ
There are more and more people coming, Zhu Ziming is worried that he will hurt his fifth brother, Feisheng leads away the people, and when Zhu Ziming disappears, the prince who was sitting on the side at this time has a blue face, and can't help muttering: Sure enough, the palace still has a small, it seems that he can't hurt him today, so he is very angry.
An old man on the side snorted coldly and said: That's not necessarily, didn't the prince forget, did you drink the wine just now? Although it is not much, it is enough to dissolve half of his internal strength, so don't worry too much about the prince.
