"Get up when I tell you to! Do you really dare to disobey my orders?"

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed in his heart, watching the protagonist speak gently, seemingly angry, but there was a hint of uncontrollable pity in his eyes.

Although he hadn't seen him for many years, he still heard a little bit about his grandson's behavior as a rat on the street.

"How about just letting your grandson kneel?"

"Actually, the grandson has selfish motives, because only by kneeling here can he get closer to the emperor. Moreover, the grandson has not paid greetings to the emperor in person for a long time. On weekdays, he can only kneel down in the Minghe Hall in the Liuli Palace."

Zhu Yunxi shook his head and said with a pleading look on his face, finally squeezing out a trace of tears from his eyes.

Seeing Zhu Yunxi's expression, Zhu Yuanzhang felt a trace of self-blame inexplicably in his heart, and sighed helplessly.

"Come on, give me a seat!"

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Yuanzhang turned to look at Wang Defa who was stunned below, and said in a deep voice.

Wang Defa hurriedly agreed, found a futon, and placed it respectfully in front of Zhu Yunxi's knees.

"sit down."

Zhu Yuanzhang patted Zhu Yunxi on the shoulder and said softly.

Zhu Yunxi didn't insist anymore this time, he agreed and knelt on the futon obediently.

"Go ahead."

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his hand to signal and asked Zhu Yunxi to continue.

"Grandpa Huang, before we officially start talking, we have to ask him to apologize to his grandson!"

Zhu Yunxi cupped his hands, pointed at Wang Defa, the chief eunuch standing on one side, and said confidently, with a hint of stubbornness in the corner of his mouth.

"What are you still waiting for?!"

Zhu Yuanzhang hesitated for a moment, turned to look at Wang Defa, said dissatisfied, and raised his hand to signal.

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's signal, Wang Defa was stunned and froze on the spot.

It was clearly your Majesty who asked you to do it just now...

And I can't even move my hands...

"Um?!"

Seeing that Wang Defa didn't respond for a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang's face darkened.

Wang Defa did not dare to neglect any more, and hurriedly knelt down in front of Zhu Yunxi and bowed respectfully.

"I know my mistake, and please forgive me..."

Seeing this scene, the officials below were even more confused. They did not expect that His Majesty actually asked Wang Defa to kneel down and apologize to Zhu Yunxi.

You know, Wang Defa is a popular person around His Majesty. He is deeply trusted. He is used to being arrogant. When has he ever been so cowardly?

Even the always selfless and selfless King Zhu Di of Yan had to be a little bit shy when he saw him. Today he actually kowtowed and admitted his mistake in front of an imperial grandson who had long since fallen out of favor.

"Can we talk now? Why is Yunwen in danger of his life?"

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, signaling Wang Defa to step back, and then mentioned the old words again.

"Grandpa Huang, Commander Chiang has just said it himself, Hu Weiyong and Lan Yu's remnants have appeared in Kyoto. Their sudden appearance is no accident. It is very likely that they heard the news and came to the second brother. "

"If you appoint your second brother as the grandson of the emperor at this time, it would be equivalent to telling the world that he is the future prince. If you rebel against the party and intend to take revenge, you will definitely assassinate your second brother. Wouldn't that put him in great danger? "

"Grandpa Huang is protected by the Yulin Army and the Jinyi Guards. Naturally, the rebels can't get close to him. But the second brother is different. He can't stay in the palace all the time. He can't go anywhere, right?"

"So my grandson thinks that the fugitive rebels should be eradicated first, and then canonized. I wonder what the emperor's opinion is?"

After listening to Zhu Yunxi's answer, Zhu Yuanzhang frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.

The civil and military officials below also began to look solemn and whispered, as Zhu Yunxi said, it was indeed too coincidental that Hu Weiyong and Lan Yu's remnants suddenly appeared at this time.

"I killed your uncle, don't you hold any grudge?"

"Did someone teach you what you said just now? Do you want to deliberately prevent me from appointing a heir apparent?!"

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was deep in thought, suddenly darkened his face, looked straight at Zhu Yunxi, and asked in a deep voice.

Perhaps, he felt that what his grandson did today was too abnormal, because he had never thought that any of the royal grandchildren around him could be so calm and composed, neither humble nor arrogant!

There is even a hint of himself in his youth!

Upon hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's question, the faces of the officials changed slightly, and they all looked at Zhu Yunxi without blinking, wanting to see how he would answer.

"Grandpa Huang Mingjian! What my grandson did today was entirely for the safety of his second brother and for the sake of the Ming Dynasty. He is absolutely selfless!"

"Although my grandson is uneducated and incompetent, which has disappointed many people, my grandson is only loyal to the royal family! Even if Lan Yu is related to his grandson, there is no affection at all!"

"Lanyu's crime of rebellion is irrefutable, and he deserves to die!"

"The reason why I blocked the canonization ceremony is because I don't want any opportunity to be taken advantage of by those who rebel against the party. If something happens to the second brother, according to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, the position of grandson will most likely be passed on to the grandson."

"If this loser like me becomes the future prince, will Grandpa Huang agree? Can all the civil and military officials agree?!"

Zhu Yunxi raised his hands, looked at Zhu Yuanzhang seriously, and said loudly.

After hearing Zhu Yunxi's answer, the ministers looked surprised and couldn't help but start to think in their hearts. If the ignorant grandson in front of them was really established as the crown prince, what future would the Ming Dynasty have?

Wouldn't it mean that the whole country would be ruined? !

However, they seemed to have fallen into the trap of Zhu Yunxi's words. In fact, even if something unexpected happened to Zhu Yunxi, the position of crown prince would not necessarily fall on Zhu Yunxi, a playboy.

But in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart, except for the emperor's grandson Zhu Yunwen, there was no suitable candidate among his sons.

King Yan Zhu Di is most like him, but he is the most uncontrollable. Although he has outstanding military talents, he lacks a little bit of benevolence. In recent years, he has relied on his own merits and has gradually become a bit domineering.

In fact, in the early years, Zhu Yuanzhang had always been worried about making Zhu Biao the prince, because the Ming Dynasty relied on military force to establish the country, but Zhu Biao had always been gentle and elegant, lacking in heroic spirit. On the contrary, Zhu Di's military talents actually won his heart more, but compared with However, he still liked Zhu Biao's kindness more, so he made Zhu Biao the crown prince.

After Zhu Biao's death, according to the rules, the eldest grandson of the eldest son should have been named, but Zhu Xiongying died early, and the second grandson Zhu Yunxi had been uneducated and incompetent because he lost his mother at a young age. Moreover, the death of the eldest grandson was related to the relationship between the crown prince Chang's His death always makes people worried.

Because the Crown Princess Chang died not long after Zhu Yunxi was born, many people blamed Zhu Yunxi for this, thinking that he was the one who defeated his brother and his mother, and in the end even his own father died.

Because Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Biao had similar personalities, they were studious and filial, so Zhu Yuanzhang decided to make Zhu Yunwen the emperor's grandson and inherit the throne.

But what troubles him is that Zhu Yunwen has had the same temperament as his father since he was a child. Now he sees that the protagonist suddenly looks more like his younger self, which makes Zhu Yuanzhang feel a little surprised and surprised.

In contrast, this kind of neither humble nor arrogant momentum was exactly what his deceased son lacked, and it was also what he had always hoped for Zhu Biao to have!

It's a bit helpless to say that the former prince and the second emperor's grandson who are about to be crowned as the emperor's grandson lack exactly this kind of fierceness!

But why did my domineering nature happen to be inherited by this idle dandy? !

"What Yun Xi just said is not unreasonable. The most urgent task is to eradicate the fugitive rebels as soon as possible to avoid future troubles!"

“Let’s discuss the matter of canonization later!”

After a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang finally took his eyes away from Zhu Yunxi, came back to his senses, and said in a deep voice.

Yunxi? !

Has this really changed your mind? !

After hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, a trace of surprise flashed across the faces of everyone present!

There was nothing wrong with delaying the canonization. What surprised everyone was that the endearing name was spoken, and the person who blocked the canonization ceremony was actually the useless grandson of the emperor who had never entered the Fengtian Palace!

Zhu Yunwen's expression on the side was not very good-looking either. I don't know if it was disappointment or something else, but it was a bit complicated anyway. Before half a stick of incense, he had already thought that he was the crown prince.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

After hesitating for a moment, the ministers all bowed respectfully and spoke in unison.

Although they were surprised, no one dared to object to Zhu Yuanzhang's decision, and this ending seemed to be the safest way.

"Retreat!"

Then, under Zhu Yuanzhang's instruction, Wang Defa shouted at the top of his voice.

After the ministers saluted, they exited the hall one after another.

"Grandson leave!"

Zhu Yunxi respectfully saluted Zhu Yuanzhang who stood up to leave, then stood up and slowly retreated.

Hearing Zhu Yunxi's words, Zhu Yuanzhang stopped, looked at Zhu Yunxi who was walking out with Zhu Yunxi, and frowned slightly.

"Did I really make a mistake? Could it be that he is the chosen one of my Ming Dynasty?"

"But he's obviously a loser! Has he really improved since we haven't seen him in a few years?"

Looking at Zhu Yunxi's back, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but murmured to himself in a low voice, his eyebrows full of doubts.

An originally high-spirited canonization ceremony ended hastily because of Zhu Yunxi's sudden appearance.

Zhu Yunxi followed Zhu Yunwen and walked out of the hall together. When he looked up, he found that everyone had left. Only Xin Guogong Tang He stood alone not far away, looking at the entrance of the hall...
