After finding out that the problem was still with himself, Zhu Yuanzhang's anger was much less.

He turned to worry about the health of Zhu Biao and Zhu Xiongying: "Doctor Li, you are a great doctor, just like Hua Tuo in the world, please check our Biaoer and grandson carefully, we don't want to send the young to their graves."

Li Zhongfu said: "If they had health problems, I would have treated them long ago."

"You mean they have no health problems? Someone killed them?"

"Maybe, after all, even in the recent 15th year of Hongwu, there is still a gap of four or five years, I can't say for sure."

Zhu Di interrupted: "After I ascended the throne, I ordered people to secretly investigate, but no problems were found. It seems that my elder brother and Xiongying died of illness accidentally."

Zhu Biao asked : "Do you suspect that we were murdered?"

Zhu Di nodded: "All of my father's children add up to dozens of people. Except for a few who died young, they basically grew up safely, and many of them lived long lives, except for my eldest brother, second brother, and third brother.

Historically, not long after you, my eldest brother, died of illness, my second and third brothers also died young one after another. It is hard for me not to suspect that someone deliberately eliminated the opponent."

Zhu Yuanzhang clenched his fists: "Tell me more details, how long is not long?"

"Just a few years, my father was still alive at that time, but after the news of the death of my second and third brothers came, my father was also greatly shocked, and he died not long after that." Zhu Di lowered his head, not daring to look Zhu Yuanzhang in the eye.

Zhu Yuanzhang closed his eyes, tried to hold back his tears, but couldn't hold them back. Tears flowed down his cheeks: "I lost my father and mother, my brother and sister in my childhood, my grandson in my middle age, and three sons in my old age. Why is my life so miserable?

Is it because I want to be the emperor? Is it because my fate is too hard that killed them?"

Zhu Biao handed Zhu Yuanzhang a handkerchief: "Father, don't worry, let me ask my fourth brother another question."

"Brother, please ask."

"What was the fate of Lu in history?"

"Lu was named the empress dowager after Zhu Yunwen ascended the throne. After Zhu Yunwen... disappeared, she was moved by my brother to guard the cemetery for my brother. Four years later, her residence caught fire and she... disappeared."

Zhu Biao immediately guessed that the so-called disappearance was death.

It would be a lie to say that he didn't feel uncomfortable.

But Zhu Biao didn't hate Zhu Di too much.

Because if it was me, Zhu Biao would do the same.

"Father, Lu actually lived to the fourth year of Yongle, which means that the changes in our world cannot affect the time and space where my fourth brother is.

In other words, in the eleventh year of Hongwu in my fourth brother's time and space, there was no Doctor Li, and the Crown Princess Chang did not survive the catastrophe.

Since Chang could survive the catastrophe, I and Xiongying must be able to, and from my fourth brother's words, we know that someone has murdered my second and third brothers, and almost killed my father.

Such a result is most beneficial to the crown prince Zhu Yunwen, and it is very likely that Lu is the mastermind behind it.

Now that she is dead, and Chang is alive, Xiongying will not only not be murdered, but will also be better taken care of, and it will be easier for him to survive." After deep thought, Zhu Biao made a sharp judgment.

Zhu Yuanzhang then turned from crying to laughing: "Okay, Biao'er said it well, it will definitely be like this, Doctor Li is really a great benefactor of our family."

Hearing them mention him, Li Zhongfu seized the opportunity to say: "The prince's analysis is correct. According to the speculation of netizens in later generations, not only the King of Qin, the King of Jin and the Grandson Zhu Xiongying, but also the prince Zhu Biao were killed by the Lu family."

Zhu Biao was a little scared: "Why do you say that?"

"Because if the prince had been alive and succeeded smoothly, the Huaixi military generals would be your most loyal team.

And there was no shortage of wars in the early Ming Dynasty. As long as the Huaixi military generals seized the opportunity, they would be promoted and more relied on, which was extremely unfavorable to the civil officials.

If you, the prince, died and Zhu Yunwen took the throne, he would naturally follow the Huaixi. If the Western military generals are not dealt with, they will inevitably rely on civil officials. Lu will be promoted directly to the Queen Mother, and her voice will be much greater than when she was your queen. "

"That makes sense."

Zhu Di added: "Doctor Li's analysis makes sense. The fact is that before Zhu Yunwen came to power, in order to eliminate the threat for him, my father himself killed many Huaixi nobles, such as Feng Sheng and Lan Yu.

Since then, even in the Hongwu Dynasty, the voice of civil officials has been very large.

When it came to the Jianwen Dynasty, the only military generals who could fight were Geng Bingwen, Sheng Yong and my two brothers-in-law. The key is that Zhu Yunwen did not trust them very much. Otherwise, with the few people under my command, how could the Jingnan Rebellion succeed?"

Zhu Yuanzhang, who had already stabilized his emotions, was about to jump up again.

So this is my fault?

Li Zhongfu said: "The nobles of Huaixi were abandoned during the Hongwu reign, and were no longer trusted during the Jianwen reign. In addition, Zhu Yunwen's crazy measures to reduce the power of the vassal states, if they cannot fight back, even if they survive, they will be excluded from the throne.The core circle of the imperial court.

That’s why the war god Li Jinglong made all kinds of eye-catching operations. It seems that the success of the Jingnan Campaign was due to the wisdom and bravery of the Yongle Emperor, but in fact, you relied on the support of the people. "

Zhu Di admitted: "The so-called emperor relies on everyone's recognition. If no one recognizes it, who is not a head on two shoulders?

Who is nobler than who? Who is born to be an emperor? Zhu Yunwen didn't understand this truth, but those civil officials did, so he lost. "

Zhu Yuanzhang: ...

"Biao'er, you must live well." Zhu Yuanzhang held Zhu Biao's shoulders tightly and almost roared from the bottom of his heart.

Zhu Biao nodded heavily: "Your son understands, your son will never let Yunwen have the slightest possibility of succession."

"That's good, that's good."

Zhu Di thought that since everyone was not in the same time and space, no matter how much his elder brother changed, it would not affect him, so he took the opportunity to act cute: "Yes, that's good, that's good. "

Li Zhongfu squinted at him.

Just be happy.

When your great-grandson Mingbaozong comes one day, I wonder if you will be happy.

Both were deceived by civil servants who wanted to seize power. Zhu Yunwen lost, but your great-grandson didn't win either.

Your great-grandson is not even as good as Zhu Yunwen. He can be called the most foolish and shameless emperor in history. Even Emperor Huizong and Emperor Qinzong of the Song Dynasty and Wanyan Jiumei would feel inferior to him.
