Daming: I can’t kill such a greedy prince-in-law?

Chapter 526 Zhu Yuanzhang abdicated and Zhu Biao became the emperor! (Please subscribe!!)

Ouyang Lun shook his head again, "Your Majesty, you really misunderstood me."

"Misunderstood you? Haha." Zhu Yuanzhang rolled his eyes.

"How can Li Yuan compare with you? He is not even worthy of carrying your shoes. Although it sounds a bit harsh, it is the truth!" Ouyang Lun said loudly.

kindness! ?

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Ouyang Lun with some confusion, and couldn't help wondering in his heart. Ouyang Lun would actually say such a thing, but it sounded quite nice.

"Hehe, Ouyang Lun, please continue." Zhu Yuanzhang's anger dissipated a lot.

Ouyang Lun continued, "Your Majesty, don't think that I am trying to flatter you. You know that I never flatter you!"

"And the reason why I came to this conclusion is also based on facts."

"We can definitely make a comparison!"

"First of all, from the perspective of personal background, Li Yuan was born into a family of Guanlong nobles, so he had a very high starting point. Your Majesty, you rose from a beggar to the throne, and you conquered the country with every sword and spear. In terms of martial arts, you are far better than Li Yuan!"

"In addition, in terms of governing the country, Li Yuan shared the country with scholars and officials, and protected the interests of the aristocratic families. But you chose to share the country with the people of the world, and protected the interests of the people. You showed no mercy to corrupt officials. The people must give you a thumbs up! You have killed more officials than Li Yuan did in his entire life! Today's Ming Dynasty is developing rapidly, and the people not only live and work in peace and contentment, but also have a well-off life. It won't take long for the Hongwu era to appear. But what about Li Yuan? It had to wait until his son Li Shimin ascended the throne before he was able to create the Zhenguan era!"

"In terms of civil administration, Li Yuan is not as good as you!"

"As for fighting, managing talents, etc., let alone that, there is no comparison with you at all!"

Ouyang Lun said slowly.

Zhu Yuanzhang listened with great interest. You know, Ouyang Lun had never said much about him in the past. This sudden praise and compliment made Zhu Yuanzhang very comfortable.

Wang Zhong praised Zhu Yuanzhang, but perhaps Zhu Yuanzhang didn't feel anything. However, he was extremely benefited by Ouyang Lun's praise. As the saying goes, praise from the enemy is the most attractive.

Even when Ouyang Lun stopped, Zhu Yuanzhang felt reluctant and wanted to ask Ouyang Lun to continue.

"Ahem." Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know whether to continue being angry with Ouyang Lun or to praise him. After thinking for a while, he muttered, "Since you know that Li Yuan and I cannot be compared, why do you want me to give up the throne and become the emperor?"

"If I meet other emperors in the underworld a hundred years later, I will definitely be laughed at by Qin Shi Huang, Liu Bang and others! Besides, the previous emperors were all ugly. Only Li Yuan was slightly better. The others are hard to describe. I don't even bother to be ranked with that group of emperors!"

"That's right!" Ouyang Lun said suddenly excitedly.

Forehead.
Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment, then said: "What's right? If it's right, then don't mention it!"

"No, Your Majesty, what I mean is that, precisely because of this, you should become the emperor!" Ouyang Lun said firmly.

"Ouyang Lun, you are not drunk, do you want to listen to what you are saying? You were just saying that none of the previous emperors were good, and now you want me to be the emperor. Isn't this contradictory?" Zhu Yuanzhang said unhappily.

“Your Majesty, don’t be so angry yet. Listen to me first, then you can get angry.” Ouyang Lun waved his hand and continued, “It’s because the previous emperors were too lame. Obviously, the emperor should be more powerful than the emperor. They should have brought down the status of the “emperor”!”

"Your Majesty, let me ask you, is it difficult to obtain the title of the greatest emperor of all time?"

"Aren't you talking nonsense? This is the greatest emperor of all time, which is equivalent to the number one among all emperors throughout history! Although I think I am good enough, there is still a gap between me and the greatest emperor of all time." Even though Zhu Yuanzhang was an extremely confident emperor, he had a clear understanding of the title "The Greatest Emperor of All Time".

"Yes, the title of the Greatest Emperor of All Time is indeed too difficult to obtain, and the competition is too great. However, the title of the Greatest Emeritus of All Time is as prestigious as the Greatest Emperor of All Time, and may even be better. The emperors before him no longer have a chance, but you, my majesty, now have the best chance!"

The first emperor in history! ?

When he heard this title, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes brightened a lot.

What a niche word this is!

But at this moment, it exudes an extremely tempting attraction!!
Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang stunned, Ouyang Lun continued, "Your Majesty, just imagine, as long as you become the emperor, you will undoubtedly kill all the previous emperors in seconds and trample them under your feet!"

"What you need to do is to make outstanding achievements so that the emperors and emperors who come after you will take you as their goal and role model!"

"Cultivate a true emperor, manage the Ming Dynasty from a higher dimension, and you will be able to be more relaxed and at ease!"

"More importantly, you will be able to witness the growth of the second emperor of the Ming Dynasty with your own eyes, and protect him at the critical moment!"

"These are things that past emperors wanted but could not do!"

"You are the first emperor of all ages, and you will also be the first emperor of all ages. So, shouldn't you be the emperor?"

Listening to Ouyang Lun's words, Zhu Yuanzhang no longer felt angry. Instead, he was moved and his heart even began to beat fast.

Zhu Yuanzhang fell into deep thought.

In addition to what Ouyang Lun said, Zhu Yuanzhang also thought of something, that is, his son Zhu Biao.

Zhu Biao, as Zhu Yuanzhang's legitimate son, was born before Zhu Yuanzhang founded the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Biao witnessed the birth of the Ming Dynasty with his own eyes and even made contributions in the process of founding the Ming Dynasty. Now, the Ming Dynasty has been established for more than 20 years, and Zhu Biao has been the crown prince for more than 20 years!
Being the crown prince for more than 20 years is one of the top figures in history. Logically, Zhu Biao should have succeeded to the throne long ago.

Zhu Yuanzhang also believed that even if Zhu Biao was made emperor immediately, he would be able to do a good job.

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Zhu Biao and an idea came to his mind: let Biao be the emperor and himself be the emperor emeritus, why not give it a try!

Zhu Biao had already been confused by Ouyang Lun's remarks.

what the hell! ?
Didn't Brother-in-law Ouyang bring me here to talk to my father about government affairs? How did it become that he wanted me to be the emperor?
This. This is too shocking.

It’s not that Zhu Biao has never thought about what it would feel like to be an emperor, but definitely not now!

How could he become emperor while his father Zhu Yuanzhang was still alive?
Zhu Biao wanted to explain, but after thinking it over, he decided not to open his mouth. Any explanation would be futile at this point. The more he said, the more mistakes he would make. It would be better to say nothing.

Ouyang Lun didn't say anything else.

Zhu Yuanzhang lowered his head and thought. Zhu Biao and Wang Zhong did not dare to speak rashly at this moment.

The huge Hall of Supreme Harmony fell into silence.

Finally, Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, but he did not speak to Ouyang Lun. Instead, he looked at Zhu Biao, "Biao'er, did you hear what Ouyang Lun just said and the suggestions he made?"

"Your Majesty, I have never done that before." Zhu Biao spoke quickly.

But Zhu Yuanzhang interrupted him directly, "Biao'er, I think Ouyang Lun is right! A good prince is not necessarily a good emperor. If you want to be a good emperor, the most direct way is to be a real emperor!"

"I'm old now. For more than a year, you have been handling most of the affairs of the court. You have also been deeply involved in Ouyang Lun's several reforms. I have seen all the achievements you have made!"

"so."

Everyone at the scene held their breath.

"I have decided to find a suitable time to abdicate the throne and become the Supreme Emperor, and you, Zhu Biao, will take the throne! As the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty!!"

Be nice!

Zhu Yuanzhang really agreed to be the emperor! ?
When Ouyang Lun, who was the driving force behind this matter, heard Zhu Yuanzhang's words, he was also stunned!
What he just said was actually just to fool Zhu Yuanzhang and let Zhu Yuanzhang give Zhu Biao more burdens and demands, so that Zhu Biao would not come to bother him so often. Unexpectedly, he fooled Zhu Yuanzhang so much that he wanted to abdicate and become the emperor!

Be nice!

Zhu Yuanzhang became the emperor emeritus. Could it be possible that all the boasts I just made would come true?
If this thing really came true, I don't know whether Li Yuan's emeritus emperors would scold him or thank him. They scolded him for finding such a niche track as the emeritus emperor. They could have been lying flat, but they were forced to squeeze in Zhu Yuanzhang, the king of the roll! As for praising him, in this way, with Zhu Yuanzhang's joining, the average level of the emeritus emperors was directly raised! !

Of course, only Li Yuan and other emperors emeritus know what they think about Zhu Yuanzhang becoming the emperor emeritus.

For Ouyang Lun, it was just a try, but he didn't expect it to be successful. It was a pleasant surprise. But no matter what, after Zhu Biao became emperor, he would definitely not bother him every day. Even if Zhu Biao wanted to come, Zhu Yuanzhang and the civil and military officials would not agree.

Perfectly achieved the goal!

After Zhu Yuanzhang announced his decision to give up his throne to Zhu Biao, he felt an inexplicable sense of relief all over his body. He was not worried at all about what Zhu Biao would do to him. This alone was enough to kill many emperors.

Look, this is the broad mind of our old Zhu!

To be honest, Zhu Yuanzhang had long thought about letting Zhu Biao inherit the throne early, but it was delayed for various reasons.

But after listening to Ouyang Lun's words or analysis, Zhu Yuanzhang made the final decision. It is true that Zhu Yuanzhang really likes the throne, but he hopes that his Zhu family's kingdom can be passed on smoothly, and he hopes that this kingdom will always be under the name Zhu!
Zhu Biao was undoubtedly the candidate he was most satisfied with!
When Zhu Biao heard that Zhu Yuanzhang was going to pass the throne to him, he knelt down with a feeling of seven parts fear, two parts excitement, and one part confusion.

"Father, I am afraid that I will not be able to do well and disappoint you. Please take back this decision!"

"Silly child, now that I have said it, I will not regret it!" Zhu Yuanzhang continued, "Ouyang Lun also said just now that you are the emperor and I am the emperor emeritus. I will protect you, so what are you afraid of? Just do it boldly!"

"But I have to remind you that being an emperor is different from being a crown prince. You have to be mentally prepared."

"This" happiness came too suddenly. Zhu Biao was a little hesitant for a moment, not knowing what to do. He subconsciously glanced at Ouyang Lun.

"Why are you looking at Ouyang Lun? It is you who is the emperor, not Ouyang Lun. It won't be long before you will be the emperor. You can't rely on Ouyang Lun for everything like in the past! I don't allow you to go to Ouyang Lun every day!" Zhu Yuanzhang said unhappily when he saw Zhu Biao's little action.

After hearing what Zhu Yuanzhang said, Ouyang Lun was not upset, but laughed happily.

"Yes, your Majesty is right!" Ouyang Lun nodded repeatedly, "Brother-in-law of the Crown Prince, no, he will soon be the uncle-in-law of the Emperor. You will soon be the Emperor, so you must be independent and think for yourself. As the Emperor, the only person you can trust is yourself!"

"You can't just go to the ministers' residences casually, and you can't discuss things with the ministers every day, especially with the same person. This will make other ministers jealous, or even dissatisfied."

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but nod his head as he listened to Ouyang Lun's words, but he felt something was wrong as he listened.

and many more!

This kid brought Biao'er to me, said so much, and even asked me to decide to abdicate. Could it be that he simply wanted to get rid of Zhu Biao?
Damn it! It might be impossible for others, but it is possible for this guy.

For a moment, Zhu Yuanzhang felt like he had been cheated, but things had come to this point and it was useless for Zhu Yuanzhang to dwell on it. Even if he questioned Ouyang Lun, this guy would definitely deny it!

Although Zhu Biao was still a little confused at the moment, seeing that his father was so determined and his brother-in-law was also supportive, Zhu Biao himself was also a little excited to try, and stopped talking nonsense. He bowed to Zhu Yuanzhang and said: "I will do my best and will never let my father down!"

"it is good!"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction.

"Biao'er, get up quickly."

Zhu Yuanzhang stretched out his hands, helped Zhu Biao up from the ground, and looked at him with a fatherly gaze, "So many years have passed in the blink of an eye, and Biao'er, you will also inherit the throne. Your father is very pleased!"

"Thinking back to when we rebelled against the Yuan Dynasty, we were in danger several times. Who would have thought that we would be in the situation we are in today?"

"You've suffered a lot following us!"

Zhu Biao's eyes turned red, and he quickly said, "The sufferings I have endured are nothing. Your Majesty has endured much more than yours. And some of the uncles who followed your Majesty did not even see the founding of the Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Yuanzhang patted Zhu Biao on the shoulder and said, "Son! It is difficult to conquer a kingdom, but it is even more difficult to defend it. Next, you must work hard to make the Ming Dynasty develop better!"

"Yes, father!" Zhu Biao nodded heavily.

What the hell!

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw the deep love between Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao, he really wanted to turn around and leave.

"Ahem, although Your Majesty has decided to let my eldest brother-in-law inherit the throne, don't you think we should discuss the details? If you really announce it directly, it will be no less than a major earthquake in the court!"
