Chapter 85: Zhu Di's Alertness

Zhu Yunwen particularly disliked Zhu Di, or he liked most of the uncles who were similar to his father, and Zhu Di even more.

Zhu Yunwen received royal education since childhood was similar to his father, mainly based on Confucian classics.

However, when Zhu Biao studied Confucianism, he also involved other knowledge in military, people's livelihood, official administration, etc.

Because Zhu Yunwen was too young, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao mainly educated him on the cultivation of his mind.

Originally, after Zhu Yuanzhang died, he planned to train Zhu Yunwen.

But not long after this cultivation, Zhu An appeared.

Zhu Yunwen is still above Confucianism and is only a state of being half-understanding about handling government affairs.

The reason why Zhu Yunwen didn't like Zhu Di was that he received a lot of Confucian education.

Almost all uncles like Zhu Di grew up in such an environment on the battlefield.

At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang, except for caring about Zhu Biao's study and education, was basically in a state of laissez-faire for his other sons.

Especially in the chaos, the situation is similar, whether it is Zhu Di, Zhu Ting, or Zhu Qi.

This also caused several vassal kings, including Zhu Di, to be closer to warriors in terms of personality and not very particular about etiquette and law.

Because of Zhu Biao, several uncles, including Zhu Di, were actually very friendly to Zhu Yunwen.

After all, I love the house and the Wu, and my eldest brother Zhu Biao is particularly respectful in their hearts and is also closer to his son.

However, this kind of closeness has become the shadow of Zhu Yunwen's childhood.

What is the manifestation of the closeness of a warrior to his children?

For example, Zhu Di, touching Zhu Yunwen's head casually, was a manifestation of disrespect in the eyes of the Ming Dynasty, which had very strict etiquette and laws.

The other uncles are probably the same, and physical contact is extremely normal to the warriors.

But the closeness of this kind of warrior made it difficult for Zhu Yunwen, who was well-read in poetry and books, to accept it. He resisted and even disliked it.

Zhu Yunwen hopes that he can be as elegant and easy-going as his father Zhu Biao, with a gentleman style as a gentleman.

In his opinion, these uncles are simply military generals with quality.

Not only do you move your hands and feet, but you also speak extremely rudely.

Some dirty jokes made Zhu Yunwen despise him from the bottom of his heart.

As Zhu Di's military achievements became more and more popular with the emperor's grandfather, Zhu Yunwen became even more afraid of Zhu Di.

However, Zhu Yunwen just looked down on his father Zhu Biao in his heart.

When Zhu Biao passed away and the emperor's grandfather decided to be the next emperor, Zhu Yunwen had more ideas about Zhu Di.

At this moment, Zhu Di defeated the Northern Yuan Dynasty and forced the Northern Yuan general Nai'er Buhua to surrender.

Zhu Di's great victory in the northern expedition made Zhu Yuanzhang very happy: "The one who clears the desert is the King of Yan."

Now Zhu Di is often ordered to control the frontier army and conquer the grasslands, so the King of Yan became the leader of the nine kings of the frontier.

Moreover, because Zhu Yuanzhang became increasingly distrustful of generals such as Lan Yu, Zhu Di now has a very high prestige among the frontier army.

This time, Zhu Yuanzhang appointed Zhu Di as the "General of the Japanese Punishment". Once successful, Zhu Di's reputation will be further improved.

In Zhu Yunwen's opinion, those coastal Japanese pirates are basically impossible to be the opponents of Uncle Fourth.

"Mr. Huang, we have other ways." Zhu Yunwen asked coldly.

He wanted to stop Zhu Di's success, even if he had to pay some retribution.

Huang Zicheng shook his head and said, "This was personally assigned by Your Majesty. Not only were there tens of thousands of troops, but even the Ming Navy also went there. They were all controlled by the King of Yan."

"hateful!"

Zhu Yunwen couldn't help but grab his fist and clenched his teeth. The good mood of sharing dinner with Grandpa Huang disappeared.

"Don't be impatient with your highness. No matter how much credit your Highness has achieved, it will not pose any threat to your Highness."

"As long as your highness is stable and passes His Majesty's examination, you will not have to worry about King Yan when you become a treasure in the future."

Huang Zicheng whispered. Zhu Yuanzhang valued the vassal kings, especially after the Hu Weiyong case, and became more and more serious.

This year, King Zhu Gui of Henan was renamed King Dai and established a vassal state in Datong Prefecture, Shanxi.

King Zhu Ou of Han was renamed King Su and established a vassal state in Pingliang Prefecture.

King Wei Zhu Zhi was renamed King of Liao and established a vassal in Guangning Prefecture, Liaodong.

King Qing Zhu Bai was named King Qing and established a vassal in Ningxia.

In this way, the nine kings of the frontiers were confirmed, and Zhu Yuanzhang kept releasing the credit on his son.

However, the nine kings of the surrender control a large amount of military power, and Huang Zicheng had long noticed the problem.

Your Majesty is here, so he can naturally suppress it, but if he is gone one day, His Royal Highness the Grand Prince is still young, so he may be difficult to suppress it.

This is also the reason why Zhu Yunwen couldn't wait to reduce the vassal as soon as he succeeded to the throne.

Hearing Huang Zicheng's words, Zhu Yunwen could only suppress his displeasure.

After all, now he has nothing but his favorite, except for his grandfather.

.........

Beiping, Yanwang Mansion.

Zhu Di felt a little moved. If Yao Guangxiao is missing, he is really not used to it.

But he didn't know why his father suddenly summoned Yao Guangxiao to the capital.

"Sanbao, do you think this capital has happened? I don't know some changes." Zhu Di frowned slightly, with a sensitive sense of military smell.

He thought that his father suddenly summoned Yao Guangxiao to the capital, and there must be some change, so he asked Ma He who was serving him.

Ma He, whose nickname is Sanbao, was the famous Zheng He who was later famous for his seven voyages to the West. Later, he was awarded the surname "Zheng" by Zhu Di for his contributions.

In the 23rd year of Hongwu, Ma He was attracted by King Yan Zhu Di and was selected to serve in the Yan Palace.

Because Ma He is burly and smart, he quickly stood out from many eunuchs and became Zhu Di's confidant.

Zhu Di is different from his father Zhu Yuanzhang. He believed that the eunuchs only rely on themselves, so he not only selected knowledgeable officials to teach in the mansion, but also allowed them to read a large number of books in the mansion at will.

In Zhu Di's view, these eunuchs led by Ma He were very loyal subordinates.

"Your Highness, someone must have mentioned Master Daoyan to Your Majesty, and Your Majesty will summon Master to the capital." Ma He said.

Zhu Di nodded. Although Yao Guangxiao made a lot of friends, he could not be an official. If he could be an official, he would not have come to Peking with him.

However, the Jinyiwei in the capital was extremely powerful, and Zhu Di could not get any relevant information in a short period of time.

At this time, a servant hurriedly entered and said, "Your Highness, the capital's decree is here."

"What?"

Zhu Di was a little confused. He just came the imperial edict in the afternoon, why did he come again?

This time Zhu Di didn't expect him to be, but wondered what was going on with his father.

After looking at Ma He, Zhu Di did not dare to delay and hurried out.

The eunuch was sent to the outside world and waited quietly without any dissatisfaction.

After all, this is Your Majesty’s parent-child, and the concept is completely different. As the King of Yan, Zhu Di did not have to kneel down when he saw the order, but just bow slightly to show respect.

The eunuch did not hesitate and opened the imperial edict and said, "The emperor Fengtian Chengyun issued an imperial edict saying: There are Japanese pirates gathering along the coast of our Ming Dynasty. We hereby grant the title of King Yan Zhu Di as the general of the Japanese to suppress the Japanese, command the army, and fight against the Japanese pirates."

"My son obeys the order!"

After Zhu Di received the order, his brows frowned and he felt a trace of extraordinary aura.
