My father Zhu Gaoxu

Chapter 582
"Zhan He's idea is a good one. Although it takes a lot of traveling, it is quite good to be able to go out of the palace frequently. Why not just do it this way? Nanjing and Beijing will go together in no particular order!"

In the end, Zhu Gaochi slapped the table and decided.

"Father and uncle are wise!"

Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Zhanhe saluted almost at the same time.

"Okay, the matter is settled. Zhanji, prepare yourself and leave for Nanjing immediately. The imperial city there has not been used for many years and must be somewhat abandoned. Make some preparations in advance!"

Zhu Gaochi immediately ordered Zhu Zhanji.

"My son obeys!"

Zhu Zhanji immediately agreed, and at this time he had no further resistance.

"Zhan He, why are you back from Changling? Has it been completed over there?"

Zhu Gaochi turned to look at Zhu Zhanhe and asked.

"Exactly, my nephew came back this time to report to you, uncle, that Changling has been basically completed and the funeral will not be delayed!"

Zhu Zhanhe said, giving a detailed report on the progress of the project at Changling.

Zhu Gaochi was very happy after hearing this and immediately praised Zhu Zhanhe a few words. Then he asked Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Zhanhe to leave first, but Zhu Gaosui stayed.

After leaving Wuying Palace, Zhu Zhanji couldn't help but praise Zhu Zhanhe: "Second brother, you still have a way. You actually thought of the two-capital system. In this way, Beijing and Nanjing have the same status. Grandpa Huang Although the hard work that year was not in vain!”

However, Zhu Zhanhe said with a depressed expression at this time: "Brother, you are thinking too simply. I proposed this two-capital system, at most, to preserve Beijing's status in name. As for what will happen in the future, no one can say .”

"What do you mean?"

Zhu Zhanji was stunned when he heard this, completely unable to understand the meaning of Zhu Zhanhe's words.

"What I mean is that although my uncle agreed to move between Nanjing and Beijing, he has agreed very well now. But if he goes to Nanjing and finds an excuse not to return to Beijing, what can you and I do then? ?”

Zhu Zhanhe said with a wry smile again.

"This... this is impossible. Father, has he already promised..."

Zhu Zhanji couldn't believe it at first, but halfway through his words, he suddenly thought that Zhu Gaochi had changed so much recently that even his own son sometimes couldn't tell what Zhu Gaochi was thinking, so what Zhu Zhanhe said This situation is not impossible.

Seeing Zhu Zhanji's silence, Zhu Zhanhe sighed again and continued: "I even suspect that the reason why my uncle agreed to the two-capital system I proposed was actually to temporarily appease us and reduce the resistance to him moving the capital back to Nanjing. "

As soon as Zhu Zhanhe's words came out, Zhu Zhanji suddenly raised his head, with a look of disbelief on his face. But after thinking about it carefully, he felt that Zhu Zhanhe's words made sense. If he were in Zhu Gaochi's position, I'm afraid Will do the same.

At the same time, Zhu Gaochi in the main hall looked at the direction Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Zhanhe were leaving, with a faint smile on his face.

"Brother, you don't feel tired from running back and forth between Nanjing and Beijing every year?"

Zhu Gaosui couldn't help complaining at this time.

Zhu Gaochi was unable to completely move the capital back to Nanjing, which was very bad news for him.

"Lao San, why have you become so sincere? If I hadn't said this, would Zhan Ji and Zhan He have agreed so simply?"

At this time, Zhu Gaochi raised his eyes and glanced at Zhu Gaosui. "Brother, what do you mean..."

Zhu Gaosui was not stupid, and he suddenly woke up when he heard this. After a long time, Zhu Gaochi was just trying to appease the two brothers Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Zhanhe.

"Ginger is still old and hot. My two eldest nephews have always been very smart, but compared to my eldest brother, they are still far behind!"

After Zhu Gaosui reacted, he immediately flattered Zhu Gaochi.

"You underestimate Zhan He and the others too much. My words may deceive them for a while, but when they go back, they will definitely react and they may be in trouble again in the future."

Zhu Gaochi sighed at the end. He had never thought before that his son and nephew would disagree with him. For this reason, he even had to plot against these two close people.

"Brother, what if they react? Anyway, the rice has already been cooked, and you are in power, why do you care about the opinions of the two juniors?"

Zhu Gaosui said nonchalantly.

In fact, he wished that Zhu Gaochi would fall out with his son and nephew, so that he could profit from it.

"You can't say that. Zhan Ji is the prince and Zhan He is the son of the second brother. They will inherit the throne of Tianzhu in the future. Even if I am the emperor, I have to weigh their opinions."

Zhu Gaochi said with a somewhat solemn expression.

In fact, he didn't want to get too serious with his son and nephew, but the two sides had different political opinions, so Zhu Gaochi had to use this method to appease them.

"Brother is so kind. I hope Zhanji and the others can understand your painstaking efforts!"

Zhu Gaosui slapped him in the face again, and then he hesitated for a moment before speaking again.

"Brother, how have you considered the matter I mentioned to you last time?"

"What happened last time..."

Zhu Gaochi showed hesitation when he heard this, and then spoke again after a moment.

"It's okay to send troops to help you wipe out the Ashikaga Shogunate in Japan, but you ask yourself to command the army, which makes me a little worried. After all, you are not the second-in-command. You have rarely fought in peacetime. If you leave the army under your command, it would be a mistake. Just in case..."

Zhu Gaochi didn't say anything more until the end, but the meaning was already very obvious.

It turned out that just a few days ago, Zhu Gaosui asked Zhu Gaochi to let the Ming Dynasty send troops to completely wipe out the Ashikaga Shogunate and the various daimyo in Japan who disobeyed the Ming Dynasty. Moreover, he also had to personally command the army, which was equivalent to taking military power in his hands.

Zhu Gaochi was a little hesitant, not because he was afraid that Zhu Gaosui would rebel after gaining military power, but because he was afraid that Zhu Gaosui did not have the ability to command the army. If the battle was defeated, the Shijian Silver Mine might be in danger.

"Brother, please don't underestimate me. Although I am not as good as my second brother in terms of fighting, I have followed my father on the battlefield. In a small country like Japan, there is actually no need for military tactics. Even if it is forced with superior force, it will not be possible. I can bulldoze them!"

Zhu Gaosui patted his chest and promised.

Zhu Gaosui is very confident in his abilities. In fact, he is indeed not a fool. When Zhu Di first came to the throne, he once asked Zhu Gaosui to sit in Beijing. His performance at that time was quite good, so he was deeply loved by Zhu Di.

Seeing Zhu Gaosui's insistence, Zhu Gaochi couldn't refuse anymore, and finally had to nod and agree. He had already agreed to make Japan a fiefdom of Zhu Gaosui. Now it was appropriate to send troops to clean up Japan. After all, Zhu Gaosui was also a vassal king. You can't rule the country with rebels everywhere.
