Daming: I became Zhu Yuanzhang's eldest son

Zhu Tao didn't wait for Zhu Yuanzhang to finish speaking, so he pushed back directly.

"I can come up with this idea, but I don't want to do this job. I have already taken on a lot of burdens, so please let me rest for a while."

Zhu Yuanzhang scratched his head very much, he is considered lucky to have such a son, but this kid is really too lazy.

"Okay, anyway, you are a little tired, but we said that we will let you take a year's leave until the Lantern Festival, and then come out to go to the morning court, so I am doing you a favor."

Zhu Tao nodded, he was satisfied that his father who claimed to be pro-government could concede things to this extent.

"Okay, let's do it then."

"Anyway, before the Lantern Festival, you must not give me any more work. Let me live a life of a dude who just eats and waits to die for a few days."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded helplessly and said to him.

"You kid just cares about being lazy every day, look at how tired your elder brother is."

"We review the memorials until midnight every day, how can we bear it, you don't know how to share it."

Zhu Tao also feels sorry for Zhu Yuanzhang, but he is indeed such a character that is difficult to change.

After much deliberation, he said directly.

"Actually, this matter is not particularly difficult. There are many old Huaixi generals in the founding of the country. Rather than putting them in the capital to cause disaster, it is better to let them go out to attack the city."

In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang knew very well about these nobles from Huaixi.

These old brothers are desperate to fight the world, and now they are either dukes or marquises, and there are some things that disrupt the law and harm the people.

However, these nobles were the source of the chaos. Zhu Yuanzhang wanted them to leave the capital as soon as possible and return to their hometowns to raise them. How could he give them the military power again.

So when facing Zhu Tao, he could also speak out his mind directly.

"These nobles, we originally wanted to take away their military power and let them return immediately, but now we have to use them again, but when we let them take charge of the army again, it is also a time when we can't sleep well."

Zhu Tao immediately understood Zhu Yuanzhang's meaning. After all, these nobles are not deadly when they fight, and the same is true when they do bad things.

If they are allowed to lead the troops again, if the temperance is not good, there may be catastrophe, and even threaten the rule of the Ming Dynasty.

More importantly, when they really went to fight against Europa and ceded land there to stand on their own, if Ming wanted to conquer again, no matter whether it was victory or defeat, both sides would suffer.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang felt a little depressed, and naturally there was a murderous look, and Zhu Tao could fully feel the helplessness from the emperor.

However, Zhu Tao thought of a way to get the best of both worlds in an instant, and he immediately told Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Aren't you just worried that Europa will lay down a territory and become the emperor himself when these heroic generals arrive? I have a good idea for you. Don't let them do this matter of enclosing the land, let our own family do it."

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes widened in an instant. If his family could really do this, of course the meat would be rotten in the pot anyway, and they would not make things difficult for themselves.

"Then tell me, who can lead the army to expand the territory? After the culture is exported, the next step is to use the army."

Zhu Tao replied with a smile to Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Father, why are you so confused? You are so far away, and you are right in front of you. It is none other than my third brother and fourth brother. They are the most valiant generals of our Ming Dynasty, and they are your princes. If you can't trust them, then Who can you trust?"

Only then did Zhu Yuanzhang wake up suddenly, Yan Wang Zhu Di and Jin Wang Zhu Wei, these are the best among the princes, and they can also suppress these arrogant soldiers.

In other words, these two princes are just too young and have not yet reached the level of battle experience.

But they should all have some experience, especially Yan Wang Zhu Di, who is not only the most powerful prince, but also the son-in-law of Wei Guogong Xu Da, who has a very high prestige in the army.

Thinking of it this way, Zhu Yuanzhang naturally understood that these two people were probably the best candidates to attack Europa State.

But he thought about it carefully and said to Zhu Tao.

"But for them, we just wanted them to guard a place internally and become the king of the nine-sided competition. We didn't expect them to go out and expand their territory."

At this time, Zhu Tao had an inscrutable smile, and even Zhu Yuanzhang was a little hairy when he laughed.

"You brat, what are you laughing at? Could it be that our idea is wrong, if you can't tell why, I'll have to take off your shoes and whip you."

Zhu Tao looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with deep meaning, and said something leisurely.

"I know that you arranged the Nine Sides Kings because you want to contain the forces of Beiyuan and defend the capital, so that no matter what the nobles can't rebel, and these princes can also guard the country of Daming for the eldest brother."

This remark ruined all Zhu Yuanzhang's plans, so he said with a smile.

"It's still Tao'er who knows what Dad's thinking. If that's the case, is there any loophole in your arrangement here? If there is, you might as well speak out directly."

Zhu Tao said helplessly to Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Although I don't want to say this, but this may happen. Everyone in the Nine Frontiers has heavy soldiers in their hands, ranging from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands. If they have two hearts, they will not become eight soldiers. Is it the opportunity of Wang Zhichao?"

The Rebellion of the Eight Kings refers to the eight princes in the Western Jin Dynasty. Each of them held a heavy army. As a result, they rebelled together and attacked each other because of the emperor's dragon chair.

Zhu Tao mentioned the Rebellion of Eight Kings today, which really shocked Zhu Yuanzhang. After all, although he didn't want to believe that such a thing would happen, he had to guard against it.

The King of the Nine Sides Race, indeed, everyone is too strong. Compared with the local commanders and envoys, they have more troops than the local commanders.

If they really had a different heart and caused the Eight Kings Rebellion of the Ming Dynasty, how should they deal with it?

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but burst into cold sweat. He was really afraid that his descendants would kill each other.

But since this formulation was said by Zhu Tao.Naturally, there would be a way to crack it, so he immediately asked in a hurry.

"Tao'er, today you have to tell dad the truth. Judging from the bottom of your heart, will our Zhu family also repeat the tragedy of the Eight Kings Rebellion?"

Zhu Tao just smiled lightly, he knew that what he said hit the most hidden thing in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart.

"Father, you already knew it very well in your heart, why ask me again, if I don't tell you, don't you know?"

Zhu Yuanzhang felt a little sad. Of course he knew that if he took measures, this would probably be unavoidable.
