Chapter 570 Current Situation
It took nearly half an hour for the three brothers to persuade the old man. This is also thanks to the hard work of the second and fourth brothers. Otherwise, Zhu Biao is really not very good at coaxing people.
Zhu Biao waved back the servant who served in the hall and said: "My Zhu family has a weak foundation, and now the only one who can stand alone outside is my cousin. The title of king is not only for rewarding his achievements, but also for the stability of the world. Uncle Don't worry too much, my lord."
Li Zhende frowned slightly after hearing this: "I also heard that King Kaiping is going back to Beijing, and Wen Zhong will take over military affairs in the north, but the Duke of the State is enough."
Zhu Biao explained: "The second king Kaiping of Zhongshan returned to Beijing to sit in town, so the princes who stay in Beijing now will go north and south to supervise military affairs. Although the elder brother's title is not low, his qualifications are still worse than those few. I don't want to show my superiority or inferiority, so I have to give my brother the title of king, so that I can succeed Chang Shuai in a legitimate way."
Li Zhen sighed and said: "If it is a country, then the Li family should be what it should be. I am just worried that Wen Zhongmao's ability to ascend to a high position will not match his power. In the future, he will not be able to discredit His Highness."
Zhu Di continued: "My uncle is too worried. My cousin looks like a frail scholar, but in fact he has the advantages of the two kings of Kaiping and Zhongshan. "
Li Zhen was actually just talking in advance, knowing a son is like a father, how could he not be aware of his son's many abilities, it may be beyond his power to expel the Hulu horses from stepping on the grassland, but it is more than enough for the Liping Fan to guard the frontier and resist the Mongols.
"Then I have only one request. The prince of the Li family is finally Wenzhong, and he will never dare to be hereditary. Even the prince of the country should be demoted again. Why should the descendants rely on the legacy of the predecessors for their virtue?"
Zhu Biao was silent for a moment and said: "My nephew agreed to my uncle, the prince is finally the elder brother, but the prince of the country is what the Li family deserves, and the founding fathers should retire with the country."
Li Zhen nodded and looked at the north in silence. Seeing this, Zhu Xi hurriedly smiled and said, "My uncle is indeed a gentleman. If someone else got this reward, I'm afraid they would have already accepted it."
"In the life of a person, the poor and the rich and the noble should not change their guard. Once the rich and the noble forget the poor and humble, a gentleman will not do it, and His Royal Highness Jin Wang should do the same. The dignified prince and prince, indulging in love and love is not worthy of the difficulties of father and brother?
………
The three brothers bid farewell to Li Zhen and got on the carriage, Zhu Xi's face collapsed in an instant: "I'll be taught a lesson for coaxing, big brother, don't bring me here next time."
Zhu Biao knocked him on the head: "Since my uncle said so, I will definitely go to the palace tomorrow to intercede for you, but don't be ignorant."
Zhu Xi's eyes lit up: "Really? Brother, don't lie to me."
Zhu Di shook his head and didn't bother to talk to him: "Brother, my cousin hasn't made any great achievements recently, so the sudden kingship might make some people dissatisfied."
Zhu Biao twisted a piece of candied fruit: "It's enough to be canonized together with Tie Zhu, let alone dissatisfaction. Chang Shuai will lead 50,000 frontier elites to enrich the Beijing camp when he comes back this time."
The Jingying soldiers haven't seen blood for five years, so it's natural to stimulate the excitement. Of course, the gap of 50,000 people in the north will be filled immediately, but it's not known who will go north. Zhu Biao didn't ask too much. The father has his own claim.
Zhu Di endured it for a while but still couldn't hold it back: "Brother, the third brother has already left Beijing to work, and my younger brother also wants to work for the father and the emperor to share the worries of the elder brother."
Zhu Yu didn't react this time, and he should have come to his senses. The brothers are all princes and princes. Except for the eldest brother, who is aloof, no one is afraid of anyone. He is the third and fourth child of the King of Jin family and the King of Chu. King Qi, being able to plant the land with him for so long is already very interesting.
No matter how much you stop them, I'm afraid there will be a gap between brothers. At that time, the gain will not be worth the loss. After all, everyone will watch and help each other in the future.
Zhu Biao looked at the sincere Zhu Di and said, "Do you want to go to the local area to inspect and provide disaster relief like the third child, or do you want to be a military counselor at the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion?"
"My younger brother wants to go to the frontier to expand the territory for my Ming Dynasty!"
"So you want to go south. The old four Yungui land is not something ordinary people can go to. There are many miasmas and poisonous insects. Even if there is an imperial physician accompanying you, there is a risk of dying of illness. You have not married yet and stay in the capital."
"Brother, I'm not afraid of this. I heard that Brother Mu Ying has already arrived in Guizhou. As a minister, going to Guizhou is far better than others, whether it is to appease the chieftain or motivate the soldiers."
Zhu Di's face remained unchanged, and a few traces of joy flashed in his eyes. As long as the elder brother didn't object, then the father would not be able to object. If it weren't for the fact that their brothers were still young, they would have been thrown over by the father.
At dusk, the car drove back to the palace smoothly. Zhu Xi and Zhu Di were anxious to see how the eunuchs were doing. After all, the buttocks were not wiped clean, and they were not practical in doing anything. Besides, they had been serving them carefully for several months, and they really felt sorry for themselves. crops.
Zhu Biao went straight back to the East Palace. As soon as he stepped into the main hall, he saw his wives and concubines coming up to welcome him.
Zhu Biao was actually a little puzzled, why did the non-festival and non-celebration get together, but he didn't think too much, after all, he didn't care about anything, and he was even happy to watch the excitement.
If there are more women, there will be more rights and wrongs. Zhu Biao's harem is not big but it is not too small now. There are already eight serious and important people. It is estimated that there will be a few more in the second half of the year. There is no way to do it. .
All parties should be appeased, marriage is the simplest and most effective, and it is better than anything else. Zhu Biao will not refuse anyone, and neither can afford to support him. At most, he hopes that his appearance will not be too bad. After all, everyone loves beauty. There are.
Zhu Biao sits on the top seat, the princess sits beside him, and the rest sit according to their positions. The same is true for the harem of monarchs and ministers in the court, which is why there is a fight.
Chang Luohua opened the mouth first and said: "Just now, the queen mother asked someone to send three carts of tribute. I heard that they were all offered by the son of King Kaiyuan. The queen mother kept some and shared some with the concubines, and the rest were sent over. .”
Zhu Biao nodded lightly and said: "I remember that there are snow clams and sable skins. You can share them."
Chang Luohua made a promise, and the women below were also happy. Needless to say, sable fur is rare but that’s it. Goryeo pays tribute every year, and everyone has it so they can’t wear it.
But Xueha ointment is different. It is said to moisten the lungs and nourish the yin as well as beautify the skin. Few women don't like this. They have long been qualified to enter the palace, but it also means that it is easy to lose their appearance and be replaced by a new generation. .
That is to say, Li Yan, Wang Rui and Yun Jin don't care too much about it. Li Yan has the confidence. As the daughter of Changsha King Li Shanchang, Prince Liangdi, there is no reason not to share with her what is in the East Palace, unless it offends the prince. Disgusted or torn face with the princess.
Wang Rui has always been like this, even Zhu Biao and Chang Luohua couldn't figure out whether she was really calm and unmoved by external things, or whether she was forbearing and restrained and had big plans.
Yunjin is simple, she only cares about Zhu Biao, and doesn't care about anything else. It's completely His Highness's personality that An Hao is a sunny day. She doesn't care about her own expenses, and she can only speak for Nuan Yu.
Zhu Biao suddenly said: "Come here, please invite Dr. Zhang to come over."
Immediately someone outside promised to trot away, Li Yan asked eagerly: "Master is not feeling well, why don't you go back to the dormitory and lie down first."
Zhu Biao glanced at Li Yan with great interest. In fact, the two hadn't met a few times before their marriage, but this woman really admired him very much, and he couldn't hide this from him.
To be honest, most of the political marriages are respectful to each other. Chen Yunqing and even Chang Luohua were like this when they first married. Only Li Yan has a fiery love from the beginning to the end.
Because of this, she doesn't get along very well with other sisters, and she has always been alone. It can be seen that she really loves her and wants to monopolize her. Otherwise, why should she be like this?
"I'm fine, I just called the imperial physician over to take my pulse as usual. It just so happens that you are all here, so let's be together later. Don't get caught in the cold during winter and spring. In a few days, we will go out of the palace together for an outing."
"Ah, can the concubines also go out for an outing?"
"Really, that's great!"
Nuanyu, who was a little drowsy at first, instantly regained her energy. She held Yunjin's hand across the stool and cheered happily.
But Zhu Biao is not for such a trivial matter, but to confirm whether Wang Rui's body is real. Chahan has arrived. If it goes well, King Shen of Koryo will die if he doesn't take off the flowers. At that time, the Koryo clan will have no choice room for it.
It is self-evident that the blood of the Ming royal family and the Koryo royal family can play a role in this situation. Although Koryo is small, changing the dynasty is by no means a trivial matter. Zhu Biao wants to win over all the forces that can be won over. There are absolutely no fixed allies, they are all pawns That's all.
