Daming: Dad, you are really not good at governing the country

Zhu Biao came back to his senses. His face, which had been tense as a string due to nervousness, was now slowly melting away bit by bit, just like a thin layer of ice slowly being baked by a warm fire in a cold night.

He subconsciously raised his head slightly, and the surprise and relief in his eyes were like intertwined silk threads, shining brightly.

The corners of Zhu Biao's mouth unconsciously curled up slightly, and an irrepressible smile, like a flower quietly blooming in spring, slowly appeared on his face.

The originally tightly furrowed brows gradually relaxed like dark clouds blown by the breeze.

The whole person's breath became lighter, and there seemed to be an invisible sense of relaxation lingering around the body.

However, this sense of relief did not completely occupy Zhu Biao's heart as expected.

A vague sense of worry, like a cunning little beast, quietly crept into Zhu Biao's heart.

He thought to himself: My father has always acted decisively and with tough measures, but this time his attitude changed so abruptly, what was the reason?
Is there some deeper plan and intention, or has my advice this time really hit the nail on the head?

Zhu Biao knew that it would not be easy to make his father change his mind.

It is so rare and unexpected that my father listened to my advice today.

But when he thought of the imperial edict that was about to be issued, Zhu Biao's heart tightened involuntarily.

Although the "Night Trial of Guo Huai" seems to have the potential to reveal the truth, once it is investigated in depth, it is very likely to bring out the many complex forces in the court.

When that time comes, how should I deal with it cleverly?
Who can guarantee that those officials who have close contacts with "Guo Huai" on a daily basis will not resort to all kinds of shady and bad tricks in secret?

If someone under my third brother's command is involved, if it is not handled properly, it will not only destroy the harmonious atmosphere within the royal family, but may even cause the seemingly calm situation to fall into turmoil again.

The more Zhu Biao thought about it, the more worried he became, and the expression on his face became solemn again.

However, he finally took a step forward and said respectfully: "Father, you are wise and powerful. This decision is indeed of great benefit to our Ming Dynasty."

After saying this, Zhu Biao glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang nervously, his eyes full of caution.

Zhu Yuanzhang was seen sitting firmly on the dragon throne, which symbolized supreme power. His bright yellow dragon robe was slightly rippled under the flickering candlelight, like waves on a calm lake.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang's expression was still as serious as usual, there was a hint of gentleness in his eyes.

It is like a rare ray of warm sunshine in winter, which warms people's hearts slightly.

After hearing Zhu Biao's words, Zhu Yuanzhang did not respond immediately, but thought about it secretly in his heart.

He knew very well that Zhu Biao had always been kind and good-hearted, and that this time his advice hit the nail on the head.

It can be seen that Zhu Biao's abilities have indeed been growing over the past few days.

However, the risks involved in the "night trial of Guo Huai" should not be underestimated.

If you are not careful, you will most likely get into endless trouble and even plunge the entire court into chaos.

Zhu Yuanzhang slowly raised his eyes and looked deeply at Zhu Biao.

There was joy in his son's growth in his eyes, as if he saw a seedling gradually growing into a towering tree.

There is also a vague worry about the future situation, as if looking into an unknown fog, not knowing how many crises are hidden in it.

"Biao'er, as the crown prince, the burden on your shoulders is as heavy as Mount Tai.

In the future, the Ming Dynasty will all depend on you to protect it. You must not let your father down. "

Zhu Yuanzhang spoke slowly, his voice was steady and powerful, and every word seemed to carry a thousand pounds of weight.

Upon seeing this, Zhu Biao bowed again and said, "I will definitely remember your father's teachings!

For the sake of my country and country, I will go through fire and water, and die without hesitation." Zhu Biao's heart moved, and after hesitating for a moment, he said again: "Dad, if the suggestions I made before have offended you in any way, I hope you will be magnanimous.

Don’t take it to heart!”

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his hand and waved, saying in a deep voice: "It's okay, Dad understands.

You are doing this for the good of Ming Dynasty, how can Dad blame you? "

In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang knew very well that Zhu Biao was a kind-hearted child, which was completely different from his usual decisive and tough style of doing things.

But in today's complicated court situation, perhaps Zhu Biao's kindness can bring a different new atmosphere to the Ming Dynasty.

Although he still looks serious on the surface, deep down in his heart, he has extremely high expectations for Zhu Biao.

When Zhu Biao heard this, he felt a warm current surge into his heart, instantly dispelling the uneasiness in his heart.

He raised his head slightly, trying hard to control his emotions.

But her eyes turned red involuntarily, tears welled up in them.

In this palace full of majesty and solemnity, the father and son often had serious confrontations over state affairs.

Such tender moments as today's are rare.

The expectation in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes at this moment was like the warm sunshine in winter, which gave Zhu Biao great comfort.

Zhu Biao knew that this was not only his father's recognition of his advice, but also a trust in his ability to govern the country.

Zhu Biao was deeply moved by this trust, and at the same time he felt that the responsibility on his shoulders was extremely heavy.

Thinking of this, Zhu Biao bowed again and said firmly: "I will do my best and will never let you down."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded slightly and looked at Zhu Biao with deep eyes, as if he could see through Zhu Biao's heart.

He seemed to be carefully observing his son who was gradually growing up in front of him, and was full of infinite expectations for his future.

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang's thoughts drifted back to his youth, when he had gone through countless hardships and obstacles in order to establish the Ming Dynasty.

After experiencing countless life and death tests, he finally conquered this vast land.

Now looking at Zhu Biao in front of him, Zhu Yuanzhang fully hoped that his son would be able to build on the foundation he had laid and make the Ming Dynasty even more prosperous.

But in his heart, he was secretly worried that Zhu Biao would find it difficult to deal with the complicated disputes in the court.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang said earnestly: "Biao'er, this Ming Dynasty will be yours sooner or later.

Dad hopes that you will have the qualities of a benevolent monarch, care about the world, and love your people.

One must also have the ability to govern the country, be able to control the court, and handle various affairs.

Your suggestion this time is very good. Dad will listen to you.

But don’t be too rash in doing things in the future, and think carefully about everything.”

Zhu Biao straightened up and said in a firm tone: "I remember your father's teachings. I will keep them in mind."

He secretly made up his mind: he must be cautious and careful in his future actions and must not let his father down.
