18: Yu Qian was confused. Was the emperor going to lead the army in person?

Zhu Gaoyi stopped the eunuch who wanted to report again and walked into the Shangwu Hall. Zhu Zhan’an was committing a crime with his head bowed.

Hearing the familiar steps, he raised his head and said excitedly:”Father, why are you here?”

“Why did I come here? Didn’t the eunuchs in the Eastern Palace inform you?”

“I was thinking that there was still a while left, but I was too engrossed in my research. Please forgive me, father.”

“”Okay, I don’t know your temper yet?”

Zhu Gaoxun did not put on airs, and sat down on the chair beside the table, nodding and saying,”How is the research going? What stage is it at now?”

When talking about the research, Zhu Zhan’s eyes suddenly lit up, and he pointed to the design drawing and said:

“Father, I have developed a high-power scope according to your ideas. But if this sniper rifle wants to reach a higher level, the machine tool must be better. The current level is far from enough…….”

Zhu Zhan’an was halfway through his speech when he saw Zhu Gaoxun just nodding without commenting. He was a little curious and said,”Father, you rarely care about these things on weekdays. I am responsible for them…….Is there something that brings you here today?”

“There are indeed some things I need to tell you, so that you can be mentally prepared.”

Seeing Zhu Gaoxun say this, Zhu Zhan’er knew that the matter must be serious. You know, when my father was in Fengtian Jingnan, he was not so serious.

Zhu Zhan’er put down the design in his hand and sat upright,”Father, you say, I am listening to you.”

“You know that, too.” Zhu Gaoxun said slowly,”My father has cultivated immortality and has a very long life.”

“I know this.” Zhu Zhan’an nodded and said,”Don’t worry, father, I don’t have any idea about the throne. Compared with these, I like technology more.”

“Developing possibilities, promoting industrialization, and making Ming Dynasty dominate the world are the thoughts in the child’s heart.”

“You have three brothers to dominate the world.

Zhu Gaoxun said slowly,”It is impossible for you to be the crown prince for life.”

“So I have an idea, please consider it.”

“Don’t think about it, just follow my father’s plan, and I can do whatever I want!”

Because they had seen enough, Zhu Zhan’an and his brothers had long since gotten rid of low-level interests.

How could the throne and power be as exciting as dominating the world and developing the Ming Dynasty’s industry?

Those active ministers on weekdays were nothing more than dead bones in the grave in just a few decades. How could they understand their father’s great wish?

“Let me finish my words.”

“Father, you said……”

At this point, Zhu Zhan’an realized that what his father Zhu Gaoxun was going to say today was not simple, so his expression became more serious.

“Today, the immortal method I practiced for my father has reached a certain level, and the Ming Emperor chat group has been opened…….”

Zhu Gaoyi told Zhu Zhan’an the general content of the emperor’s chat group and talked about the relationship between Zhu Youjian and Chongzhen. With Zhu Zhan’an’s intelligence, he quickly understood what his father meant.

“so……”Zhu Zhan’an pondered and said,”Father, do you want me to be the emperor of the Chongzhen Dynasty, and in the process make the Chongzhen Dynasty Ming Dynasty stand tall in the world?”

“That’s right!” Zhu Gaolin nodded and said,”Bai’er, you are indeed the smartest one among the brothers. Unlike your brothers who only think about conquering the world,”

“Father, you are too kind. My brothers are not bad either.”

Zhu Zhan’ao first said something good for his brothers, and then began to seriously think about what his father Zhu Gaoxun said.

After a while, Zhu Zhan’ao pondered and said,”According to what you said, my mission in the Chongzhen Dynasty is to dominate the world, not to be the emperor. Naturally, I am willing to go.”

“Besides……This Emperor Chongzhen was indeed not a leader who could restore the Ming Dynasty. In such a time of great contention, being stubborn and capricious was a big taboo and would only lead to the end of the Ming Dynasty.”

“But there is one thing that I must say even if I risk my father’s punishment.”

Zhu Gaoxun was very satisfied that Zhu Zhan’ao could understand his thoughts in such a short time.

He nodded to Zhu Zhan’ao and said,”If you have any ideas, just say them out. You and I are different from ordinary fathers and sons of the royal family.”

“Father, I think the key to this matter lies in Zhu Youjian. Zhu Zhan’an said slowly,”The throne originally belonged to Zhu Youjian. Even if he is not good enough, the legal system is still in his hands.”

“Therefore, Zhu Youjian’s family must be properly arranged…….Taizu and Huangye also need their consent, otherwise this matter will be too much of a hindrance.”

“If Taizu and the Emperor come forward, this matter will be simple. Only in the Chongzhen Dynasty can the child have legitimacy.”

“Hahaha!” Upon hearing this, Zhu Gaoxun laughed,”You are worthy of being my family’s Qilin son. Your father has taken care of these things. You don’t have to worry about it.””

“Furthermore, this matter also needs to be planned slowly…….Don’t worry, my son. Your father won’t let you have any worries.”

Zhu Gaoxun’s idea is very simple. He cultivates himself, and the Zhu family will naturally benefit from it.

Now that he has the emperor chat group, his magical powers will increase.

The reward for this group task – the magical reincarnation.

It is a very obvious message that perhaps he has the possibility of building the underworld and the heaven!

At that time, he will arrange some places for Zhu Youjian’s family, and then persuade Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Di, and the problem will be solved.

Of course.

It is too early to think about these things now. Zhu Gaoxun’s visit this time is just to give Zhu Zhan’s shot of prevention.

“In this case, I have no objection. Zhu Zhan’an greeted him and said,”This matter will definitely take a long time to plan. I will do more scientific research first to prepare for the industrialization of our Ming Dynasty.”

“Very good!” Zhu Gaoyi stood up and walked to the door of the palace,”If you need anything, come to me. When the time is right, I will come to inform you.”

“I understand, I send my father off respectfully.”…

Kunning Palace.

Empress Xu Yuewei was sitting on a brocade stool, sketching out clothes with her hands, when she heard the report from her personal maid,”The emperor went to the East Palace?”

“Replying to the Queen, His Majesty has already arrived at the East Palace at the hour of You.”

“Um……”Xu Yuewei paused, smiling like a flower,”Please notify the imperial kitchen to prepare some food for His Majesty to eat when he returns to the palace.”

“Here!”

“Wait!” Xu Yuewei thought for a moment, then stood up,”I’d better go there myself. The emperor likes me to do it myself.”

With that, Xu Yuewei went to the imperial kitchen, followed by respectful palace maids.

At the same time, at Fengtian Gate.

Zhu Gaoxun, who came out of the East Palace, ordered Zhao Yi:”Call Yu Qian, Wang Wen, and Fan Guang into the palace, and ask them to wait for us in the Wudian.”

“”Yes!”

Soon, Yu Qian and others arrived at the Martial Hall and met Zhu Gaoxun.

They were all puzzled. The three of them were members of Zhu Gaoxun’s core army and knew clearly how powerful the Ming Dynasty was now.

In the past, when the three of them gathered together, it was mostly because of war.

But at the grand court meeting this morning, didn’t His Majesty just deny Yu Qian’s plan for the Tartars outside the Great Wall?……

With doubts, the three of them bowed their heads to greet

“I have said it so many times.” Zhu Gaoxun said with a smile:”Except for the grand court meetings, you do not need to kowtow to me when you see me.”

“Your Majesty.” Yu Qian’s face was firm,”Rituals cannot be abolished!”

Yu Qian was honest, but also stubborn. Zhu Gao was too lazy to get too entangled with him on this matter.

“” I called you here today because there is a war.”

Zhu Gaoxun’s words made the three people present even more confused. His Majesty has never changed his orders, so what happened today?

Ignoring the reactions of the people present, Zhu Gaoxun continued,”After Fan Aiqing goes down, mobilize 10,000 troops and bring all the corresponding supporting weapons with him.”

“Weapon supply, Lord Yu, you must ensure it is in place, no need to interfere. Mobilization before the station, Lord Wang”

“Your Majesty.” Yu Qian bowed and said,”Forgive me for my rudeness, but Your Majesty, which side are you going to mobilize troops against?”

“No need to ask, you will know by then.” Zhu Gaoyi said:”The troops have been assembled, and they will set out with me in three days!”

Wang Wen trembled and said:”Your Majesty, you want to lead the army in person?”

“Almost.” Zhu Gaoxun nodded,”Also traveling with us are Taizu and my father, Emperor Yongle.”

“I, your humble servant, accept your orders…….”

Seeing Zhu Gaoxun start to stand up, Yu Qian and the other two were still a little confused.

The last time the emperor personally led an army was to quell the rebellion, and three days later, there were Taizu and Yongle Emperor?

Although they were puzzled, thinking of Zhu Gaoxun’s magical powers, the three could only keep their thoughts to themselves.

When they walked to the entrance, Zhu Gaoxun saw that the three were still confused, and smiled and said,”Don’t think too much, my three ministers. You will see the result in three days.”

After that, Zhu Gaoxun disappeared around the corner, and Yu Qian and the others looked at each other with solemn eyes.

The emperor has always been like this. Not only can he easily know the thoughts of his ministers, but he also always warns them secretly.

This is clearly telling them to do their own things well and not to think too much.
