Chapter 12: I got stuck

"Good boy, if we weren't sick, we wouldn't have tasted the breakfast made by our eldest grandson himself, and the taste would be extraordinary."

Zhu Yuanzhang said satisfied after he finished breakfast.

Jiang Yan carefully observed His Majesty's expression. Sure enough, after eating the breakfast made by Mr. Zhu himself, he became different and looked refreshed.

"It seems that Mr. Zhu is the medicine to cure Your Majesty's heart disease."

Jiang Yan thought silently in his heart.

"Has our eldest grandson ever said something else?" Zhu Yuanzhang had no intention of reading the memorial at this time and asked Jiang Yan.

"Young Master Zhu wanted to take care of Your Majesty, but he was avoided by me." Jiang Yan said respectfully.

"Well, I can't let him enter the palace now. Some things are too abrupt. Okay, you go back first, and we'll go see the grandson tomorrow."

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he pondered for a moment and said to Jiang Yan.

"Yes, Your Majesty." After Jiang Yan finished speaking, he waited outside the study room.

To a certain extent, Jiang Yan was equivalent to a personal guard position to Zhu Yuanzhang.

As the commander-in-chief of the Jinyiwei, protecting Zhu Yuanzhang's safety was a place of great trust.

After Jiang Yan left the imperial study room, Zhu Yuanzhang did not immediately start reviewing the memorials, but instead thought in his mind how to arrange Zhu An.

Now he has confirmed that Zhu An is his eldest grandson Zhu Xiongying.

From a normal perspective, he can now arrange for Zhu An to enter the palace, establish the position of the eldest grandson of the direct line, and set the identity of the crown prince.

From the perspective of both legal principles and moral principles, it is unquestionable.

Although Zhu Yunwen's position as the crown prince was announced a few days ago, it was a bit inappropriate to change the orders every day, and it seemed to have some influence on the dignity of the emperor.

But Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care about these things. As the founding emperor, his prestige was unparalleled and there would be no doubts from ministers.

If any ministers question it, they will be cut off.

From the first year of Hongwu to the current 25th year of Hongwu, most of the ministers in the court had already changed three or four times.

In other words, the officials in the entire Ming Dynasty ranged from the Hu Weiyong case in the 13th year of Hongwu, to the empty seal case in the 15th year of Hongwu, and then to the Guo Huan case in the 18th year of Hongwu.

The officials in this world were cut by Zhu Yuanzhang like a leek, and then they had to go one after another.

As for the current situation in the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang is completely a person who is centralized and has a one-man sect.

"But our eldest grandson, can we be this emperor well?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was very confused. He had no doubt about Zhu An's love, and his character must be fine.

But Zhu An left the palace at the age of eight, wandered outside for ten years, and never received training to govern the country.

Judging from the current situation, Zhu Yunwen's succession to the throne is actually a very good choice.

Zhu Yunwen has been smart since childhood and has read poetry and books. He has been influenced by the study of governing the country since childhood. He is currently the best candidate.

In contrast, Zhu An is much inferior in these aspects.

"We can live for a few more years, let's see."

After hesitating for a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang no longer struggled and decided to take a closer look at Zhu An's situation first.

This throne is not a joke, so you should be more cautious.

......

Nanjing City Gate,

There are a lot of traffic here. As the capital of the Ming Dynasty, there are the most dignitaries and nobles, so there is naturally no shortage of merchants who come and go.

Even if Nanjing discriminates against merchants because of Zhu Yuanzhang, it can be said that it is the strongest place in Nanjing.

This will not affect those businessmen who want to make money.

In front of the bustling city gate, a carriage that looked expensive slowly drove in.

There is no need to line up with those merchants and civilians for inspection, but go directly through the small door next to it.

"Miss, the capital has arrived. Come and see, it's so lively."

The curtain of the carriage opened a little, and a girl's face came out and said in surprise.

Ye Wanqing sat in the carriage and couldn't help but take a few glances with curiosity.

"It's really much more lively. Qing'er, closed the curtains and waited to the Marquis' Mansion, and naturally he would have a chance to come out."

Ye Wanqing ordered.

"Yes, Miss." Qing'er obeyed the instructions and quickly closed the curtain.

Ye Wanqing sat in the carriage, but her mind had already flown to Nanjing City, the place called Ping'an Teahouse.

While thinking, Ye Wanqing's mouth couldn't help but lift up slightly, and obviously she thought of something beautiful.

"He certainly never expected that I would set out the next day after the messenger set off."

"I don't know what it would be like if he suddenly saw me."

Ye Wanqing began to see her sudden appearance in front of Zhu An, and Zhu An's surprise expression began to appear in her mind.

"Miss, you are thinking about Mr. Zhu again." When the maid Qing'er saw her lady's smile, she couldn't guess what she was thinking, and she quickly quipped.

"You want to talk too much."

Ye Wanqing broke the defense in an instant, and the lady-like appearance disappeared without a trace, and she started to fight with Qing'er in the carriage.

......

Ping An Teahouse,

Even though it was already early in the morning, there were still many people buying breakfast.

The servants in the teahouse are commonplace, even at noon or dusk, there is no shortage of guests in the teahouse.

The shopkeeper also suggested that Zhu An open a restaurant many times, but he has been rejected by Zhu An.

At this time, a man rode a tall horse, wearing royal clothes, and two rows of guards with swords to the Ping'an Teahouse.

The servant who was welcoming guests at the door saw it and ran out of his legs and hurriedly notified the shopkeeper to go.

When the shopkeeper got the news, Zhu Chuang and his guards had already arrived at the door.

The shopkeeper's eyes were sharp-eyed, and he saw at first sight that the man was wearing the prince's clothes, and he quickly bowed and said:

"This highness, the grass-roots..."

"Get out of here, let your boss get out of here."

Zhu Ren shouted loudly, and the shopkeeper's body shivered and almost fell down. He hurried in to find Zhu An.

"I drove everyone away. I can't eat them. These untouchables are ecstatic!"

"Reign"

Many guards stepped forward to drive away the guests who were buying pastries.

There is no need to drive away the guards? When these guests see this scene, they will have the courage to stay.

The people around were far away from watching the fun.

Living in the capital, my eyes were bright, and only royal nobles could have this guard with swords.

Don't watch the fun, you'll get yourself in.

Suddenly, the surrounding area was cold, but there were still many people hiding in the corner to watch what was happening here.

Before the shopkeeper could go upstairs, he saw Zhu An walking downstairs.

Zhu An had heard of such a noisy thing for a long time, and he could only handle such things himself.

When I saw many sword guards outside, and the people on the horse.

Zhu An was so nervous: "Is it because the guy from Piaoxiang Teahouse has a strong backstage and is he asking me for revenge?"

At this moment, the light in the teahouse was a little dim. Before Zhu Lu could see the person's face clearly, he shouted: "Are you the owner of this teahouse?"

Zhu An walked to the door and saw the prince's clothing on Zhu Chuang, and was shocked.

This is the son of Zhu Yuanzhang, the prince of the Ming Dynasty. How could he be the one who can invite Piaoxiang Teahouse?

"Caomin Zhu An, I have seen Your Highness. Caomin is the owner of this teahouse. I don't know if your highness is here, but what's the point of being neglected?"

Zhu An bowed slightly, held his fists and saluted, and then looked at Zhu Chuang with neither humility nor arrogant words and said.

"you....."

Zhu Ren was about to curse when he suddenly saw Zhu An's face, and the words he was ready to get stuck in his throat.
