Chapter 12 Old Zhu was furious, and Old Four dared to rebel?

Empress Ma joked, "Oh, you, Zhu Chongba, still feel embarrassed sometimes."

Although Zhu Yuanzhang said this, his smug expression did not show any humility at all.

"Mother, based on the achievements mentioned on the sky curtain, father is comparable to the Qin Emperor and Han Emperor, and his name will be passed down through the ages."

Zhu Biao said with a smile.

"Look, our Biaoer is still the best at speaking."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Empress Ma with pride, knowing that she was arguing with him.

I have fought in battles all my life, and rose from a cowherd to become the founding emperor. My achievements are comparable to those of the Qin Emperor and Han Emperor. I have worked hard all my life, so shouldn't I be allowed to be proud of myself?

"Okay, you, Zhu Chongba, are the best in the world, even better than the greatest emperor of all time, okay?"

Empress Ma gave Zhu Yuanzhang a cold look.

You are so grown up, but you still act like a child.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Biao with a smile: "Only your mother dares to talk to me like this. If it were someone else, I would have put him in prison long ago!"

Then, he looked up at the sky and couldn't help but say, "I really want to know what happened to the Ming Dynasty after we left."

[In 1398 AD, Zhu Yunwen succeeded to the throne and his reign title was Jianwen. Later generations often referred to him as Emperor Jianwen.]

[In 1399 AD, Prince of Yan Zhu Di launched the Jingnan Campaign. ]

[In 1402, Zhu Di conquered the imperial capital Yingtian and succeeded to the throne in the same year. His reign was named Yongle. He was the third emperor of the Ming Dynasty and was known as Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty.]

In Yingtian Prefecture.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma, who were looking forward to their son Zhu Biao inheriting the throne and leading the Ming Dynasty to prosperity, were shocked when they saw what was on the sky curtain.

"Yan Wang Zhu Di, Jingnan Campaign, conquered Yingtian, Ming Chengzu ..."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the information on the sky again in disbelief.

Then, there was anger!
"The Jingnan Campaign! The Jingnan Campaign!"

"You are such a good guy, Old Four. You usually pretend to be obedient, but after I died, you finally showed your wolfish ambitions!"

"Someone! Someone!"

"Pass on my order, have this heartless bastard get back from Peking!"

"Chongba..."

Empress Ma was about to say something when she was interrupted angrily by Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Sister, you don't need to persuade me."

"We have already told Lao Si and the others that this world belongs to their eldest brother, so we asked them to treat their eldest brother's general well and not to covet it."

"You saw the result. This kid actually dared to rebel!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was very angry.

"If he dares to steal our Biao'er's throne, I will skin him alive this time!"

Zhu Yuanzhang became furious.

Until this moment, Zhu Biao was still staring blankly at the sky. Will his fourth brother... seize the throne?

But he was a kind-hearted man after all. Looking at the murderous Zhu Yuanzhang, he was worried that his good fourth brother would be beheaded by his old father in a rage.

He immediately knelt down and begged: "Father, please don't get angry and make yourself sick. Fourth brother is not that kind of person. Maybe there is some misunderstanding."

"Moreover, the truth of what is said on the sky curtain is uncertain. It might be a rumor spread by the remnants of the former Yuan Dynasty to alienate our family. You have a great reputation in your life, so don't fall into the trap of these treacherous people."

"Biao'er, this bastard is in such a state and you are still speaking for him!"

"You are just too kind-hearted! You think too highly of those people out there!"

"The facts are right in front of you, and you are still speaking for him. Do you have to wait for that rebellious son to put a knife on our necks?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Biao with disappointment.

Being kind is good, but being too kind may seem too weak.

Why did he kill so many people over the years? Wasn't it because he was worried that the prince was too kind and these meritorious officials relied on their seniority to ignore the prince?
Listening to the roar and Zhu Biao's sobbing in my ears.

Queen Ma, who was standing by, had tears streaming down her face.

There is nothing more heartbreaking than children killing each other.

Why does a family have to fight with each other?
Is this throne really more important than the blood ties between brothers?
Queen Ma couldn't figure it out.

Just like she couldn't understand why Zhu Di rebelled.

at the same time.

Zhu Di's family, who were far away in Peking, were not surprised at all when they saw the information on the sky curtain. Instead, their faces turned extremely pale in an instant!
"Absurd! Ridiculous!"

"How could this king possibly rebel?!"

"This damn sky curtain must be a trick created by the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty to kill someone with a borrowed knife!"

"Quick, prepare the horse for me. I will return to the capital immediately to explain to my father!"

Xu Miaoyun said worriedly: "Don't forget, Your Majesty, without the Emperor's order, the princes of various places cannot leave their respective fiefdoms without permission."

"I can't care so much anymore!"

Zhu Di broke out in a cold sweat. "Princess, you have to know that this is not a question of whether I will leave the fiefdom or not, but a question of whether my father wants to risk our lives!"

However, before he could leave the palace.

A monk in black came excitedly into the palace.

"Your Majesty, you said you had no intention of rebelling!"

"Monk, what are you talking about? Are you looking for death?"

Zhu Di quickly blocked the black-robed monk's mouth and scolded him, "What nonsense are you talking about, you evil monk! How could I possibly rebel?"

The black-robed monk smiled and moved Zhu Di's hand away, clasped his hands together and said, "Why did Tianmu say that you rebelled? And succeeded?"

"That's Tianmu's nonsense, trying to alienate us brothers!"

"The one who will inherit the throne in the future is my eldest brother. How could I possibly rebel against him?"

"impossible!"

"Absolutely impossible!"

Zhu Di hurriedly denied it.

Rebelling against his elder brother, what a joke!
Not to mention that he had never thought about it before, even though he now knew that he would rebel in the future and that he would succeed, he did not have the slightest intention of rebelling.

Just because the person who will sit in that position in the future is his elder brother!

That elder brother who is kind, generous and caring to me!
You have no conscience at all and you want to rebel against your elder brother. Wouldn't it be better for you to just be an idle prince in Peking?

I'm really curious about why my future self would rebel.

Have things really reached the point where rebellion is unavoidable?
Looking at Zhu Di's confused expression, the monk in black gave a meaningful smile.

He whispered in Zhu Di's ear: "Your Highness, haven't you noticed that your kind and generous elder brother did not succeed to the throne?"

"My eldest brother didn't succeed to the throne. What a joke! He was the successor that our father had already chosen..."

Zhu Di said this subconsciously, but as he spoke, his speech suddenly slowed down.

As if he had discovered something incredible, he widened his eyes, looked at the black-robed monk beside him, and uttered three words with difficulty: "You mean..."

However, the only response he got was Yao Guangxiao's meaningful smile.

At this moment.

Queen Ma, who was far away in Yingtian, also discovered the bright spot.

She stopped crying, looked at Zhu Biao and his son, and asked in confusion:

"Zhongba, have you noticed that Tianmu didn't mention Biao'er? Could it be that Biao'er didn't inherit the throne?"
