Daming: I became Zhu Yuanzhang's eldest son

"But he..." Zhu Biao was about to say that he was not your father, but the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, when he realized that Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were burning, so he quickly shut up.

"Shut up! Will my son still harm me?" Zhu Yuanzhang scolded angrily, and then looked at Zhu Tao with a smile: "Your cousin is not smart, and we were plotted against outside, so he has been worried about us. diet."

Zhu Biao sat down dejectedly. He didn't understand why Zhu Yuanzhang, who was so cautious in ordinary times, was so careless today. Could it be that he really wanted to recognize this young man as his son?
So Zhu Tao also gave Zhu Biao a bunch, but he didn't think too much about it, he just felt that his cousin had a low EQ, but after all, he was also doing it for his father's good.

Zhu Yuanzhang directly imitated Zhu Tao's appearance, bit one end, and with a force of his head, bit the meat on the bamboo stick clean.

"Ok?"

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes widened, he had never eaten such a delicious thing.Fat and thin mutton, spicy but mellow seasoning, and the unique smoke of charcoal fire.

Absolutely!

"Taiping, hurry up and try our son's handicraft!"

Zhu Biao gave a wry smile, the father's son's words became more and more fluent.

He just ate a mouthful of meat, and this young man is about to become the Prince of Ming Dynasty?
However, Zhu Biaosi took two pieces of meat gracefully and was immediately overwhelmed by the taste, looking at Zhu Tao in surprise.

"Cousin, you actually have such cooking skills?"

"That's right, we have traveled all these years, but we have never tasted such delicious food!" Zhu Yuanzhang ordered a few more skewers and said with emotion.

"This is the cooking method of the Western Regions. I bought some ingredients from overseas merchants to make seasoning." Zhu Tao said this, and opened the beer again: "Dad, cousin, try this overseas beer!"

"Is this wine?" Zhu Biao looked at the beer and hesitated.

If it is said that the lamb kebabs have been confirmed to be safe, but this bubbling thing looks poisonous no matter how you look at it.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang had already gulped down a glass, burped, and his eyes lit up: "Good thing! Although it's called wine, it's not strong, but refreshing and relieves greasy. It's a perfect match with this meat skewer!"

Zhu Tao laughed. At first, he was worried that his father would not be used to beer, but he didn't think he would be good at it.

Beer and kebabs are the best match for future dining!
After eating for half an hour, Zhu Yuanzhang was slightly drunk and put down his chopsticks.

"In the past few years, I have eaten a lot of delicacies from mountains and seas, but this meal is the most satisfying meal for us."

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's comfort, Zhu Biao also became happy: "Thanks to my cousin."

Zhu Tao said with a smile: "No matter how exquisite the food outside is, it is not as comfortable as the food at home, so Dad, you should stay at home steadily for the past two years."

Zhu Yuanzhang blushed when he heard Zhu Tao's words, and was about to explain the misunderstanding. After all, the meal was over, so he couldn't just pretend to be his father all the time, right?

However, just as he was about to speak, he saw Zhu Tao's face became serious.

"It's just right, there will be a big incident in the court recently, and you just have a rest, so as not to be affected."

Zhu Yuanzhang was almost amused. How could he, the emperor, not know what happened to the court?
"Tell me, do you know what is going to happen to the court?"

Zhu Tao pointed in the direction of the west gate of the capital: "Hu Weiyong, it is estimated that the emperor will get rid of him in the first month of the lunar year!"

But anyone who knows a little about Ming history or even history will not be unfamiliar with the Hu Weiyong case.This is a major event that marks the high concentration of imperial power.

Moreover, Hu Weiyong did die. As a representative of Huaixi nobles, relying on Li Shanchang's recommendation, he not only suppressed Li Shanchang, but also dared to influence the government.

Zhu Yuanzhang was not those useless emperors who were oppressed by literati in the Ming Dynasty. Hu Weiyong dared to bully him, and Zhu Yuanzhang dared to be angry with the emperor.

The Hu Weiyong case lasted for ten years, and Zhu Yuanzhang killed nearly 10 people!
So much so that every time the ministers went to court during that time, they were ready to commit suicide by taking poison on the spot.

Now that my father is in business, it seems that the business is not small, so it is inevitable to clear the joints with the people of the court. If it is affected, the end will definitely be miserable.

Even implicating Zhu Tao is not impossible.

"The emperor wants to kill Hu Weiyong?" Zhu Biao smiled: "Impossible, Hu Weiyong and his father... get along well with the emperor and his ministers, and there are many honorable ministers standing behind him. How could the emperor do anything to him?"

"Cousin, you are still young, don't follow other people's guesses about government affairs, you will be laughed at if you say it."

Zhu Biao feels that he has finally found what he is good at. When it comes to government affairs and understanding of his father's mind, who can compare to himself?
So after teaching Zhu Tao, he looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang to support his point of view.

Then, he found that Zhu Yuanzhang had a complicated look on his face, with an expression of being punctured.

Could it be... father, are you really going to do this?
Zhu Biaoren was dumbfounded. He, the prince of the Ming Dynasty, still foolishly thought that his father and Hu Weiyong got along well with each other, but he didn't expect that Zhu Yuanzhang was ready to kill him.

What's even more frightening is, how did the boy in front of him know?
Zhu Yuanzhang was full of majesty, and said in a loud voice: "You are wrong, Hu Weiyong is the emperor's right-hand man, and the forces behind him are intricate, how could the emperor want to kill him?"

"Right-hand assistant?" Zhu Tao sneered, "I'm afraid the emperor will soon become Hu Weiyong's assistant."

"This prime minister holds great power, and many things are decided by himself. At most, he will report to that majesty, and the power should be cut first and then played."

"As for the many disciples and old officials? The more this is the case, the more dignified the founding emperor must be to eradicate! Otherwise, the successor emperor may only be emptied by Hu Weiyong."

Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while: "But after all, Hu Weiyong is an old brother who has fought with the emperor for many years. The emperor will not kill him no matter what?"

Zhu Tao gave him a surprised look. He didn't expect that his father, who has been in business for many years, would still believe in the so-called friendship. It seems that he didn't suffer much when he was outside.

"Small."

"What's small?"

"The layout is too small!" Zhu Tao smiled.

"Is this a war between the emperor and his old brother? No, this is a war between imperial power and ministerial power!"

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up.

The words reached his heart.From the very beginning, he was not going to kill Hu Weiyong, and he didn't even want to touch Hu Weiyong at all, even if he held power, even if Hu Weiyong had angered him several times.

"And in the final analysis, our emperor is not a nostalgic person. It's normal to cook a dead dog." Zhu Tao took a sip of wine and continued: "After all, the emperor is a beggar."

"Bold!" Zhu Biao shouted angrily.
