Ming Dynasty: Gain one supernatural power every day

After seeing this video, they understood. It turns out that this book records the normal course of history without the fourth prince.

They continued reading, eager to know what would have happened to them if it weren't for the fourth brother.

Upon checking, I discovered that Empress Xu had passed away this year.

"Thank goodness for my fourth brother! Otherwise, Mother would have passed away this year!"

"Yes, boss, we should thank our fourth brother properly..."

The two watched the video while tagging the main character in the group chat, expressing their gratitude repeatedly.

Regent Zhu Gaochi: Fourth brother, thank you. Thank you for saving Mother…

Seeking progress while maintaining stability [Prince Zhao, Zhu Gaosui]: Fourth brother, if it weren't for you, Mother would have passed away this year. Third brother is truly grateful to you!

Empress Xu's daughters-in-law also saw this and thanked her.

[Empress Xu Miaoyun]: Thank you, Xi'er. Otherwise, I would have passed away this year. Having you is truly my blessing.

Zhu Di, whose skills are still sharp: Father really should thank Fourth Brother. In this matter, our whole family should thank Fourth Brother.

…………

[Zhu Gaoxi]: We're all family, there's no need for this! Besides, my mother is my mother, she's not an outsider. Isn't it only right and proper for me to save my own mother?

They then continued reading.

Seeing Zhu Di pass away was understandable, but Zhu Di was already quite old at that time.

But seeing all the achievements Zhu Di made in his life, everyone was filled with emotion.

After all, Zhu Di was indeed formidable.

The book clearly states: During the Yongle reign, the capital was moved to Beiping, and the emperor guarded the nation's gates; five expeditions were launched against the northern deserts, pursuing the fleeing invaders; Zheng He made seven voyages to the Western Ocean, attracting tribute from all nations; the Hami Garrison was established, controlling the vital passage to the Western Regions; the Grand Canal was opened, facilitating north-south water transport; and the Yongle Encyclopedia was compiled, incorporating ancient and modern classics into one volume. The four characters "far surpassing the Han and Tang dynasties" are clearly written in the book.

Regent Zhu Gaochi: Father, your achievements in this life are enough to make you one of the greatest emperors in history. Even in the afterlife, your grandfather will have nothing to say.

Iron-blooded tenderness [Prince Zhu Gaochi of Han]: Eldest brother, you're mistaken. No matter where you go, I've already said that Fourth Brother can reverse time and will be going to see the Emperor in the Hongwu era in a few days. If you want to go down, go down yourself!

Regent Zhu Gaochi: It's my fault, my fault. Even if I met my grandfather, my achievements are impressive enough that I'm sure he would have nothing to say!

Seeking progress while maintaining stability [Prince Zhao, Zhu Gaosui]: Yes, Father. You have indeed accomplished a great deal in your life, and every single one of them was a momentous event.

Today, everyone in the group chat once again showered Zhu Di with compliments.

Zhu Di happened to be on his way to Xinfu County at that time, and the camera captured him looking very pleased with himself.

Iron Will and Tender Heart [Prince Zhu Gaochi of Han]: Eldest brother, your father is indeed formidable. But don't worry about him for now, hurry up and read on, and take care of yourself first! You should really train yourself. Even with your fourth brother around, you can't act like that!

Zhu Gaochi was quite surprised when he saw this sentence, wondering what the second prince was talking about. He guessed it was something about him.

He then flipped through the pages and continued reading with the third son. It's normal that they started to laugh when they reached the part where he had successfully ascended to the throne.

After all, he has always been relatively stable, and he never really considered his second son a threat.

But looking further back, he only reigned for ten months after ascending the throne, and then that was it.

He thought: How could my good days be over so soon? I finally ascended the throne, and only reigned for ten months! I have three thousand beauties in my harem! Who will take care of you all after I'm gone?!

He was feeling down when the jade pendant kept vibrating, so he picked it up to take a look. Even Empress Xu and the Crown Princess had seen it there, and were shocked to learn that Zhu Gaochi had only reigned for ten months. They immediately started sending messages in their group chat.

Zhu Di, still sharp as ever: This time, what the second prince said is correct. The crown prince really needs to strengthen his muscles and bones and get some exercise, otherwise, with your physique, even if you were given the throne, you wouldn't be able to hold on without the fourth prince.

[Empress Xu Miaoyun]: Indeed, Gao Chi, you really need to work on your health. Don't worry your mother.

Peaceful and serene [Crown Princess Zhang Yan]: I told you to eat less and exercise more, but you wouldn't listen. Look at you...

Regent Zhu Gaochi: Father, Mother, I understand. I will definitely strengthen my training in the future.

But Zhu Gaochi was thinking to himself: What the hell am I supposed to train?

That was before my fourth brother came along. Now that I have him, what's the point of me training? If I still have to work hard to train my body now that I have him, then what's the point of him coming here?

But I, the young master, am so shrewd! I still said I would listen to them.

He had just finished sending it when the second brother sent another message.

Iron-willed yet tender-hearted [Prince Zhu Gaochi of Han]: And your son, my nephew Zhu Zhanji! You really need to discipline him! He shows no respect for his uncles whatsoever!

Zhu Di, still sharp as ever: Zhanji has indeed been a bit too impulsive lately. We need to increase his study time and provide him with careful guidance. Especially that cricket and grasshopper thing—make sure he doesn't play with it.

[Empress Xu Miaoyun]: Your Majesty, Second Prince, why are you saying this? What wrong has Zhanji done?

[Princess Zhang Yan]: Yes, Your Majesty. I will certainly teach Zhanji well from now on.

Zhang Yan and the others guessed that the book must contain records of Zhu Zhanji making mistakes afterward, so they continued to turn the pages.

Zhu Gaochi then flipped through the pages. When he reached the part about Zhu Zhanji's ascension to the throne, he felt a sense of pride.

After all, the second son had been fighting him for the throne, but in the end he couldn't even beat his son.

Moreover, the book records that his son deserves half the credit for his stable position as crown prince. Xie Jin's saying, "A good grandson can bring prosperity to three generations," is written in the book. It was thanks to Zhu Zhanji that Zhu Di finally made up his mind to make him crown prince.

He continued flipping through the pages and came across Zhu Gaoxu's rebellion.

At first, Zhu Zhanji only captured him and didn't kill him. But later, Zhu Gaoxu didn't know what got into him. When Zhu Zhanji came to see him, he tripped him and gave Zhu Zhanji a sweeping kick, making Zhu Zhanji fall to the ground.

Zhu Zhanji was furious and ordered his men to cover Zhu Gaoxu with a bronze vat, pile charcoal fires around it, and roast him alive.

Zhu Gaochi was completely stunned when he saw this, and couldn't speak for a long time.

He never imagined that his seemingly intelligent and gentle son could be so cruel to his own uncle. That's your second uncle! How could you be so heartless? And you, second son, what were you doing, messing with the child? Don't you know the child is grown up?
