Daming: I became Zhu Yuanzhang's eldest son

Besides, after asking Zhu Tao to give some advice, Zhu Yan felt a lot more relaxed. He was going to relax and go to see his father Zhu Yuanzhang.

When he was outside the palace gate, he was about to pass the sign to enter, but felt a bit presumptuous, it would be better to meet Prince Zhu Biao first.

After all, Zhu Biao is a kind person. If he meets his eldest brother first, he can get some useful information there.

Besides, going to face the saint with Zhu Biao, even if Zhu Yuanzhang is a little angry, the eldest brother can stop him a little bit.

So he turned his horse's head around again, and when he arrived outside the prince's east palace, Zhu Biao was just going out, and when he saw Zhu Bian with a sad face, he hurried over to say hello.

"It's the third younger brother who came back. Why didn't you see my father came to me first? If my father finds out, I'm afraid you will be punished for your disrespect."

In fact, although Zhu Tao was relieved, Zhu Yan was still a little bit afraid of his iron-fisted father. How domineering he was outside, he was still an obedient prince when he returned to Beijing.

In front of his elder brother Zhu Biao, he didn't dare to do anything wrong, so he bowed deeply and said.

"Brother, I'm here to see you first, just because I want you to accompany me to meet Emperor Father. If Emperor Father warns me, you can help my younger brother to smooth things over."

In fact, the prince Zhu Biao has always been a benevolent person, so every time Zhu Yuanzhang taught these princes a lesson, he would come out to ask for mercy, and Zhu Yuanzhang would always give the prince face.

Therefore, Zhu Biao, as the prince and eldest brother, is quite prestigious among these princes.

The two brothers came together outside the palace, and happened to meet Li Qingfeng, the commander of Jin Yiwei.

He hurried up to salute the two princes, then said with a slight smile.

"I have seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and King Jin, and His Majesty is waiting for the two His Highnesses inside. Please follow the future."

In terms of place, King Zhu of Jin was the Emperor of Shanxi, but facing the Jin Yiwei beside the emperor, he was also very respectful, and nodded with a smile.

"General Li, you don't need to be too polite, you can go and do your work, and we two brothers will go in to see the father."

Li Qingfeng saluted again, then turned and left. Zhu Yan still felt a little trembling at the thought of going in to see his father Zhu Yuanzhang soon.

Zhu Biao patted him on the shoulder and said to him.

"The tiger is the king of beasts, who dares to offend it, there is only parent-child relationship. Looking back step by step, even if the father is the body of a dragon and a tiger, he still has the feeling of licking a calf. The third brother does not need to worry."

After the two came in, they saw Zhu Yuanzhang was reviewing the memorial on the table. Although he was only wearing casual clothes, his majesty was exposed.

After the two came in, they hurriedly knelt down to pay their respects. Zhu Yuanzhang flattened his body, and then raised his head to look at Zhu Yan.

But he didn't speak for a long time, this kind of state of staring at you without speaking is more likely to make people lose their way and feel the most frightened.

It took about ten seconds before Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

"I heard that after you came to Beijing, you first went to Zhujiazhuang to chat with Zhu Tao for a while, didn't you?"

These words directly confused Zhu Yan, after all, for the sake of safety, his itinerary was very secret.

It seems that the military inspector of the imperial court has made his itinerary from Shanxi to the capital very clear, and he has no secrets at all in front of his father.

After thinking of this level, Zhu Yan broke into a cold sweat, kowtowed to the ground again and said.

"Qi Zou Royal Father, I just passed by Zhujiazhuang, stopped by to have a chat with Brother Tao, there is no other intention, please enlighten Father."

In fact, Zhu Yan knew very well that Zhu Tao's position in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart was probably more important than that of ordinary princes. This adopted son was unusual, so he was directly called Tao's younger brother instead of his name.

Zhu Yuanzhang just snorted coldly, as if saying with some expressionless face.

"It's really a coincidence, it's really a coincidence that you are passing by!"

Although this sentence seemed plain, it directly expressed Zhu Yuanzhang's disbelief, which made Zhu Yan feel like a thorn in his back.

what is going on?Could it be that the father doesn't believe in himself?I felt that I knew Zhu Tao's situation when I went to Zhujiazhuang, so I went to ask for information.

But in this matter, Zhu Yan dared to swear to the lamp, and he dared to turn off the lamp even if the lamp was turned off. If he was suspected like this, he would be more wronged than Dou E.

Just when he was about to continue to explain something, Zhu Yuanzhang just waved his hand and said.

"Okay, you don't need to say anything more. Of course we are very clear about whether it is a coincidence, but we have something else to ask you. Now the imperial court is on the Northern Expedition, and Shanxi is located at an important point. If there is really any mistake, your crime is terrible." It's big."

In fact, Zhu Yan knew this matter very well in his heart. As the prince guarding the Nine Borders and the highest military commander in Datong, he had already received the imperial court's order and the Ministry of War's document.

Moreover, although King Zhu of Jin is tyrannical and has a bad temper, he is also a good military player. His arrangements can be described as iron walls, and Datong is absolutely foolproof.

In front of his father, this result is definitely a real bonus item, so Zhu Yan said with a smile.

"Father, please don't worry. After receiving the news, the minister has already made arrangements, and the inspection censor sent by the imperial court has also been accepted."

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted again, and said with a relaxed attitude.

"It's better to be like this. You are our son and you are older. You have to set an example for your younger brothers, so you must not be a little indulgent. If something like the last time happened, we will not always tolerate you."

Under Zhu Yuanzhang's signal, Zhu Yan dared to stand up and replied cautiously.

"After the last lesson, I have understood the deep meaning of my father and should not treat the garrison officers and soldiers harshly, so I have already repented."

Speaking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang still looked disapproving, as if he had no reaction to his words.

Zhu Yan hesitated a little, so he had to follow what Zhu Tao taught.

"The last time my father gave Xu Xingzu to my son, but my son treated him very harshly. Now that I think about it, I shouldn't have let down my father's kindness. After I go back this time, my son will apologize to Xu Xingzu. If the chef around me They all hold grudges against my ministers, the safety of my ministers is at stake, my father and emperor have worked so hard and my ministers now understand that although these are trivial matters, they must be taken seriously, and my ministers will definitely reflect on themselves in the future."

After hearing what Zhu Yan said, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression softened obviously. He glanced at Zhu Yan and said slowly.

"If you can think of these, it means that you have made some progress, and we are quite pleased in our hearts."

Although Zhu Yan didn't dare to show anything in front of his father, he let out a long sigh of relief in his heart.

I have to say that Zhu Tao's method is really effective, and he has already thoroughly figured out his father's temper.
