Family ancestor Zhu Chongba: What happened to getting your daughter pregnant?

Chapter 109 Am I the best candidate to be crown prince? !

The Commander-in-Chief of the Chinese Army.

Governor's office.

"Speaking of my apology, the main reason is that I was assassinated several times by the rebels, and Wei Guogong was often reprimanded by the emperor. Although it has no direct relationship with me, it is ultimately due to me, so I should be fair to Wei Guogong. An apology."

Zhu Yunxi looked at Xu Huizu and said seriously, with a hint of sincere apology between his eyebrows.

"It is a matter of humble duty to eliminate those who rebel against the party. However, due to the ineffective suppression, His Highness Taisun has repeatedly been involved in danger. It is indeed an ineffectiveness of his humble duties. His Majesty's reprimand is natural and has nothing to do with His Highness."

"Even if there is no assassination, going against the party and causing trouble in Kyoto is still the responsibility of a humble official."

After hearing this, Xu Huizu hurriedly waved his hands and took all the responsibility on himself. He seemed not to buy Zhu Yunxi's overtures.

"No matter what, I owe you a favor after all. If you don't complain, that's your magnanimity. But if I don't take it to heart, that means I don't care about friendship."

"Wei Guogong leads the army well. In the past few years, he has been training troops and horses in various places. The results are remarkable. He is highly regarded by the emperor and is highly respected by this palace."

"It is an honor for me to associate with a great man like Wei Guogong, so please don't refuse, otherwise you will be too foreign."

Zhu Yunxi looked at Xu Huizu and said seriously, his words full of appreciation for Xu Huizu.

After listening to Zhu Yunxi's words, Xu Huizu did not insist anymore and nodded with a smile. But when he heard Zhu Yunxi's unstinting praise, he couldn't help but frown slightly, as if he understood something instantly.

"The next thing is the second thing. I have to express my gratitude to Mr. Wei Guo."

Zhu Yunxi paused and spoke again.

"how do I say this?"

Xu Huizu asked with a smile and doubts on his face.

"Did you tell Grandpa Huang that there was an informant of the Knight Rider in the Jinwu Guard, right? For this reason, Grandpa Cao was summoned into the palace to reprimand him."

Zhu Yunxi looked at Xu Huizu and said with a smile.

But when he heard Zhu Yunxi's words, Xu Huizu couldn't help but feel his heart tighten, and a chill rose up his back.

This matter is top secret! Only he, His Majesty, and the eunuch chief Wang Defa were present at that time, and there was absolutely no fourth person present! How could Zhu Yunxi know? !

Unless it was Wang Defa who told him secretly!

But then, Xu Huizu denied his bold guess because he believed that Zhu Yunxi could not control Wang Defa!

Soon, he thought of another person, and it was this person who told him about Xiaoqi Wei's spying in Jinwu Guard.

That is his capable subordinate, the personal military guard commander, Xiao Huan!

"Don't be nervous, Duke Wei. I'm telling you the truth. Xiao Huan, the commander of the Imperial Guards, told me about the placement of spies among the Jinwu Guards by the Xiaoqi Guards."

"The reason why I know that it was Duke Wei who reported this matter to Grandpa Huang is because after you went to the Minghe Hall, Duke Cao was quickly summoned into the palace and reprimanded by Grandpa Huang."

"Moreover, I also know that the informants hidden in Jinwu Guard have left Jinwu Guard for various reasons."

"To sum up, I can conclude that it was you who told Grandpa Huang about this matter."

Zhu Yunxi smiled and spoke eloquently, explaining his analysis clearly.

really!

After listening to Zhu Yunxi's explanation, Xu Huizu's face was solemn, and he suddenly felt an unprecedented fear in his heart. He was able to connect the whole thing with only a few seemingly unrelated pieces of information. Such a mind is by no means ordinary. People can have it!

How could the emperor's grandson in front of him be the good-for-nothing playboy in the rumors who only knew how to live happily and achieve nothing? !

"But even if His Highness's inference is correct, then why should he express his thanks to Beizi? He still doesn't understand."

Xu Huizu hesitated for a moment and asked slowly.

"As we all know, Cao Guogong is the second brother, and now I have taken the position of grandson. There must be some people who are dissatisfied. Once Cao Guogong is reprimanded by the emperor and even loses the emperor's trust, this will be very difficult for me. Good thing!”

"Others may not be able to see the many matters involved in Cai Pingjin's murder this time, but I believe that they will not be hidden from you."

"Do you need me to speak more plainly?"

Zhu Yunxi looked at Xu Huizu whose expression suddenly changed and asked with a smile.

Xu Huizu frowned and looked at Zhu Yunxi in surprise. He really didn't expect that Zhu Yunxi would speak so bluntly in front of him without any scruples.

I am afraid that the only one in the entire government and the public who talks about the fight for the heir apparent is just gossip.

"No matter what, you have helped me. Although you did not mean to help me, it is ultimately beneficial to me. Therefore, I owe you a favor, and you can definitely bear it."

Zhu Yunxi looked at Xu Huizu and added another sentence.

"His Highness's words are as if they have never been heard before. Your Highness's feelings are humbly accepted. But as for the favor, please forget it as soon as you leave this door."

Xu Huizu pondered, shook his head, and said firmly.

"What you said just now is not the most important. The next sentence is the real purpose of my coming here today."

Zhu Yunxi smiled, stared at Xu Huizu, and said slowly.

Xu Huizu's indifference had long been expected by him. Looking at the entire government and the public, Xu Huizu was probably the person least likely to be bribed! No matter who wants to bribe him, it will not be easy, otherwise he would not have joined any faction until now.

Xu Huizu frowned and looked at Zhu Yunxi, waiting for Zhu Yunxi to continue, but for some reason, he suddenly started to feel nervous in his heart.

"In your opinion, who do you think is more suitable for the position of grandson, me or my second brother? In other words, which one do you like more?"

Zhu Yunxi looked at Xu Huizu with a smile on his face sincerely, paused for a long time, and then asked with interest, still not caring at all.

Hearing this, Xu Huizu was shocked again and couldn't help but open his eyes wide!

He had already seen Zhu Yunxi's straightforwardness, but he didn't expect it to be so straightforward!

"Your Highness, aren't you afraid of being humbled by your position and telling His Majesty what you just said?"

Xu Huizu frowned, looked at Zhu Yunxi, and asked seriously.

"I don't care, it's just a word. Even if Grandpa Huang knows about it, he won't do anything to me. Anyway, the outrageous things I have done are already too numerous to mention, so I'm not afraid of one more."

"But I believe you won't. As a person, you are not the kind of person who talks nonsense and has no control over your mouth. Why would you risk making an enemy just for a word?"

"Besides, for the position of Crown Prince, whoever is the most qualified will sit on it. This qualification does not depend on who is the most favored, who is powerful and has a deep foundation, but who can ensure that our Ming Dynasty will be stable for a long time and will not be afraid of foreign enemies!"

"Second brother has always valued civility over military affairs. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is powerless. Moreover, like his father, he is too kind. It is right to treat the people like this. However, we are surrounded by powerful enemies outside the Ming Dynasty. Bei Yuan It has not been destroyed yet. If he is allowed to succeed as the crown prince, will he be able to take on such a big responsibility in the event of a war in the future? "

"Which one is more suitable, an indecisive king or a resolute king, I believe you and I both know in my heart."

Zhu Yunxi looked at Xu Huizu and said a lot of things very seriously. After finishing speaking, he picked up the tea cup next to him and drank it down in one gulp.

After listening to Zhu Yunxi's words, Xu Huizu fell into silence, and the shock in his heart was hard to express for a moment.

Especially Zhu Yunxi's last words completely made him fall into deep thought.

Among the many grandsons of the emperor, Zhu Yunwen was the one who appeared most frequently in the sights of civil and military officials, and was also the favorite of the courtiers. However, in Xu Huizu's heart, he had always been worried about Zhu Yunwen becoming the candidate for the crown prince.

Just at this time, Zhu Yunxi appeared.

"The days are long. Duke Wei does not need to answer my question now. You can think about it slowly."

"Grandpa Huang must have a candidate in mind. I believe that Duke Wei will find the answer in his heart one day."

Looking at Xu Huizu who fell into silence, Zhu Yunxi smiled and did not continue to ask any more questions. As he spoke, he stood up slowly and was ready to leave.

The purpose of coming here today has been achieved.

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Yunxi reached out and took out a piece of paper from his arms, and placed it in front of Xu Huizu with a smile.

"I said that I owe you a favor. No matter what choice you make, I will return this favor to you in advance today."

"From now on, you and I owe nothing to each other."

Zhu Yunxi pointed to the note on the table, looked at Xu Huizu, and said meaningfully...
