Daming: I was exposed by Zhu Di's Sims life!

Although Chi Rong is a Mongolian, he has been in the Central Plains for many years, and he has already installed the cultural thinking of the Han people in his mind.

In Su Wen, he only saw the arrogance of youth, but not the restraint of a loyal general.

"Raw jade has to be carved to make it into a tool, and the way of employing people is also the same." Zhu Gaoxuan said slowly, "Su Wen, like Lu Chaoyang, has a straightforward personality. If this kind of person cannot surrender, it is his character. A violent general, if his methods are clever enough, he is the most loyal general."

Chi Rong said helplessly: "My lord, you know that I don't understand these things."

Zhu Gaoxuan laughed loudly: "You are real."

It is true that Chi Rong has never understood how to calculate people's hearts.

If he could understand it, he wouldn't be tired of being the admiral of the Three Thousand Battalion and exhausted from government affairs.Chi Rong couldn't figure out why King Qi could understand people's hearts so thoroughly, with all the tricks, and with his naked eyes, he could even count countless changes in the future.

In the final analysis, Chi Rong is also brave and lacking in resourcefulness, but his cleverness is that he knows that he is lacking in resourcefulness, so he entrusts his boss with the things that need to use his brain, while he works hard.

A person like Chi Rong may not be a minister with great power, but he will definitely die well.

……

It is impossible for Zhu Gaoxuan to intercept the grain from the canal to support the Northern Expeditionary Army.But these grains gave the [-] troops a vital breath. After speeding up the march, the Northern Expeditionary Army arrived at Shuntianfu City before the food and grass ran out.

Shuntian Mansion is the second capital of the Ming Dynasty, the heart of the future empire. Since the palace has not yet been built, although it is far from being as grand as the future, it also has huge reserves of resources, which can completely provide blood transfusions for the Northern Expeditionary Army and draw up enough military supplies. .

Zhu Gaoxuan asked the army to temporarily camp in Shuntianfu City, and then continue marching towards Liaodong after the rest.

As soon as King Zhao, who was located in Shuntian, heard that his good brother was coming, he couldn't wait to visit him.

……

"Fourth brother, it has to be you, third brother misses you so much!"

Lord Zhao Zhu Gaosui came up and put his arms around Zhu Gaoxuan's shoulders, and said cheerfully, "We haven't seen each other for more than half a year, let's go! Go to my palace for a drink!"

Zhu Gaoxuan, the crown prince, and the King of Han killed bloody rivers, but in fact it had no effect on King Zhao.

"Third brother, I still have so many military affairs." Zhu Gaoxuan smiled wryly, but did not refuse.

King Zhao laughed and said, "I'm very busy with military affairs. The sky is falling and it's not important for us to drink! Let your old father-in-law Zhang Fu do the military affairs. He is also the commander of the expeditionary force who has led hundreds of thousands of troops. No more than 3 people?"

Under Zhao Wang's pull, Zhu Gaoxuan had no choice but to hand over the military affairs at hand to his old father-in-law first, while he followed the third child to Zhao Wang's mansion.

Zhang Fu also had no objection to this, he knew that the relationship between King Qi and King Zhao had always been very good, and it was not a big deal, King Qi was prudent, so there was nothing to worry about.

After Zhu Gaoxuan left, Zhang Fu suddenly called Su Wen over.

"You lead [-] warriors from the army and wait outside Zhao Wang's mansion. If anything happens, rush into the mansion immediately to respond. I will take care of it if something goes wrong." Zhang Fu said calmly.

Su Wen looked at Zhang Fu suspiciously, as if he didn't quite understand the arrangement.

Zhang Fu sighed and said: "Some things, King Qi is not easy to say directly, but you and I are ministers, you should understand the thoughts of the people above. After all, Shuntian Mansion is King Zhao's territory, and it is better to be prepared than to be unprepared. It is also counted, if you don't bring someone to guard, I am afraid that King Zhao will not be able to drink this wine."

Su Wen knew it in his heart, cupped his hands and said, "I understand."

……

At Zhao Wang's mansion, a banquet has been prepared, and a table full of delicious dishes can be described as extravagant.

Prince Zhao picked up the wine pot with hot silver patterns and filled the wine cup: "The best Huadiao, I know you like this one, I have already ordered someone to warm it up."

"Third brother still understands me, come on, I'll toast third brother!" Zhu Gaoxuan picked up the wine cup and drank it down in one gulp.

Zhao Wang was also very forthright. The two brothers drank several cups in a row. The warm wine dispelled the winter chill, like a stove burning in their stomachs.

Fine wine is intoxicating, but the two princes at the wine table today seem to have no intention of seeking intoxication.

Holding the wine cup, Zhu Gaoyi drank for himself unhurriedly, and said, "Third Brother, after drinking for three rounds, don't you have anything in your heart that you want to say to your younger brother?"

It is true that among the four brothers, the relationship between Zhu Gaoxuan and the youngest Zhu Gaosui is the best, but he would not naively think that King Zhao really just came here to drink this time.

Just because of the good relationship, Prince Qi's Mansion and Prince Zhao's Mansion should be alienated on the surface, so as not to arouse the old man's suspicion, instead of being so warm now.

It's not difficult to guess that King Zhao came here with his mind on his mind, and he used the name of drinking to ease the atmosphere.

"Fourth, it's comfortable to talk to you." Zhao Wang said with a smile.

Zhu Gaoxuan took a sip of the Huadiao wine, and said with a smile on his mouth, "How are you two brothers?", thinking about what the wicked King Zhao was thinking.

King Zhao coughed lightly, and said, "Fourth Brother, do you still remember what we said when you came to Shuntian Mansion last time?"

"Remember, I can't forget what I said to my third brother." Zhu Gaoxuan said, "I told you last time that the King of Han is unreliable, and it is pure nonsense for you to hang out with him. I didn't lie to you, just look at the King of Han Where are you now, do you still count on him?"

"Fourth brother, it would be great if you told me earlier." Zhao Wang said with emotion, "I have been thinking about it in Shuntian Mansion for more than half a year, and I finally figured it out. I have no fate with the throne. The deeper I fall , the more miserable the death. As long as I don't touch that position, I will leave the title of vassal king to my descendants, and this life will be considered complete."

"Third brother is so enlightened, it should be clear!" Zhu Gaoxuan raised his glass in respect.

Regardless of whether what Zhao Wang said was true or not, he had to do enough superficial skills.

After finishing the polite words, King Zhao's face became serious, he looked into Zhu Gaoxuan's eyes, and said, "Fourth brother, third brother wants to ask you something."

Zhu Gaoyi took a mouthful of food and put it into his mouth, he smiled without saying a word.

He didn't answer the words in one word, he wanted to hear what King Zhao said first.

If you drink with the crown prince or the king of Han, if the two people ask for something, Zhu Gaoyi will definitely agree to it. Because the relationship is bad, you can agree to the conditions casually.

But Zhu Gaoxuan had to be more serious when drinking with King Zhao.The better the relationship, the clearer the accounts must be.

Zhu Gaoxuan understood this truth, and Zhao Wang would not fail to understand it.

"Fourth brother, when you become the emperor, sit in that position and leave a way for the third brother to survive." King Zhao's eyes were serious, "You can find me a fief, I don't expect to be able to stay in Shuntian by then, It would be good if I could have a way to survive in this vein.”

"Third brother, I don't understand what you are saying." Zhu Gaoxuan stroked his short beard and pretended to be stupid, "What does the throne have to do with me? I am the last of the four brothers in our family. The eldest son is fast I'm twenty, and I've just married a wife, so no matter how I choose, I can't match her, you should tell the boss what you said."

"Fourth brother, don't talk about such nonsense between the two of us." Zhao Wang said calmly, "Third brother, I have no skills, so I have some family background in Shuntian Mansion. As long as you give third brother such a verbal answer, three Brother’s property in Shuntian Mansion will be all yours from now on, I’ll just be a Prince of Taiping.”

Prince Zhao has been in Shuntian Mansion for more than half a year, and he has figured out a lot of things.

With the departure of the King of Han and the loss of power of the Crown Prince, who else is expected to inherit the throne, besides King Qi?

King Qi's methods also made King Zhao feel a chill in his bones. In just a few years, King Qi had hollowed out the foundations of all his opponents and became the champion in the court.

Zhao Wang counted what he had done these years, and he had offended many people by following Han Wang. No matter who ascended the throne, he might not have a good ending.The best choice at the moment is for a strong man to sever his wrist, give up the competition, and take refuge in the person with the greatest chance of succession, and only seek a good death.

And his choice is only King Qi.

Zhu Gaoyi drank a glass of warm wine, and said calmly, "Qiantang is rich, and it's a good place to retire."

This is tantamount to agreeing to King Zhao.

Qiantang is rich and prosperous, and is known as the "natural granary". After Zhu Gaoyi succeeded to the throne, he agreed to let King Zhao change his title to Qiantang for the elderly, which is a good ending.

The premise is that Zhao Wang can come up with enough bargaining chips to exchange this ending.

Zhao Wang showed a knowing smile: "Fourth brother, the third brother is in Shuntian Mansion, and these people will follow you from now on."

"What did the third brother say? Isn't it right to take care of your own family?" Zhu Gaoxuan said with a smile.

This business is very cost-effective, win-win!
Zhao Wang got the promise that his profit lies in the future, as long as Zhu Gaoxuan succeeds to the throne, he will be able to enjoy a prosperous second half of his life.

And Zhu Gaoxuan was making a profit at the moment, and took over the family business that King Zhao had accumulated in Shuntian Mansion over the years, and Xiao Yurun silently took over this huge power.
