Rebirth of the Ming Dynasty: Sixth Generation of Glory, I don't want it

Ming Dynasty. Hongwu thirty-first year, leap May.

Capital.

"Zhu Yunwen, this bastard, really wants to be the emperor, so that he can ascend the throne on the same day his grandfather is buried?"

After coming out of the clan house and returning to his residence, Zhu Gaoxu was so angry that he picked up a stool and smashed it and roared.

Even a person as unrefined as him felt that it was unacceptable that a wedding and a funeral were held on the same day, and he was the only one there, with none of the emperor's grandchildren showing up!!!

"Whether the emperor's grandfather dies one day, it's still him who has the final say."

Zhu Gaosui curled his lips in disdain.

"Calm down, we are in the capital."

Zhu Gaochi was very powerless.

He was able to deal with court officials and people who came to gather information with ease.

The only thing is that the two younger brothers are like stubborn donkeys and refuse to listen to any advice.

"Uncle Wang and our father are not allowed to come, so we young ones have to report to the clan office every day. We know nothing about anyone we arrest. How can we be calm? Nothing has happened yet, and you are already looking down on others? Are we, the emperor's descendants, no longer the emperor's descendants?"

Zhu Gaoxu was a person who could not stand being restricted, and he had had enough of being treated coldly these days.

Zhenzhen couldn't swallow this anger, so she said the last few words and rushed out.

Zhu Gaosui glanced at Zhu Gaochi, hesitated for a moment, and then followed Zhu Gaoxu.

Zhu Gaochi was left alone in the room, sighing deeply.

"My Lord, why don't you invite Doctor Wen to come over and play chess?"

Qianer suggested.

He was also tired for his master.

The younger brother is ignorant and the older brother is worried about him every day.

Now that there is no Crown Prince's wife to talk to, it might be nice to go for a walk with Wen Beijiao.

"Okay, don't invite me. I'll go find him. Walk around. It will save me from having to go back and find him to soak my feet."

Zhu Gaochi sighed again and stood up, supporting his knees.

"How about putting two layers of knee pads on me next time?"

Qian'er looked at the prince who was fine when he came, but now staggering, and she wanted to cry.

"You're a grown man, why are you crying? I'm fine, I'll be fine after a while. It's summer, it won't cover up if it's too thick."

Zhu Gaochi touched his knee and scolded.

He really missed his Crown Prince Consort.

He is lovely and reliable in his work.

They had to leave in a hurry this time, and the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict did not give them any time to prepare.

Zhang Xin made a prompt decision and specially prepared a few women who were good at sewing for the three brothers in their team.

When the whole team set out, they took cloth and cotton with them.

The old women sewed knee pads as they walked, and there was only a thin layer of cotton inside.

Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui originally sneered that such knee pads were useless.

The three brothers' inner garments were all taken away by the old women, and what they brought back were all sleeveless clothes with hollow backs.

In other words, Zhang Xin had always been nice to Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui, otherwise the two would have beaten the old woman on the spot.

It was not until they arrived in the capital that they realized how far-sighted Zhang Xin was.

The knee pads sewed by the old women are thin and light enough, and the width is delicately made, so they are not noticeable when tied. Although not as effective as thicker ones, they can provide some relief when kneeling for long periods of time.

The cousins ​​who were kneeling together were either not tied up or it was obvious at a glance.

Once you are labeled as unfilial, how can anything good happen?

Zhu Gaochi was fatter than others. If it weren't for Zhang Xin's knee pads, he would have been kneeling down in a few hours.

This knee has been broken for a long time.

The climate in the capital was unbearably hot. A group of princes and grandchildren were crowded together, and the room was steaming hot.

Their inner clothes were thin, but they were much more comfortable than others.

Zhang Xin also found Xu as soon as possible and arranged for Wen Beijiao, the court physician of Prince Yan's Mansion, to be assigned to them.

After kneeling for a day, I returned to my residence, drank anti-heat medicine, soaked my feet to relax, and had acupuncture to straighten out my meridians.

Among the emperor's grandchildren who came to the capital at the same time, only the three brothers are here together.

Zhu Gaochi would occasionally feel unwell, but Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui were always full of energy.

Although the two younger brothers did not say anything about Zhang Xin's meticulousness, their attitude towards Zhu Gaochi was much better than before.

While thinking, Qian'er helped Zhu Gaochi walk to Wen Beijiao's room.

It was not until Zhu Gaochi soaked his sore legs in a wooden barrel that was above his knees that he felt alive again.

"I'll give you a few more injections later."

After Wen Beijiao took Zhu Gaochi's pulse, he sat back down opposite him.

"Is there any problem?"

Qian Er was very nervous.

"It's okay. The weather in the capital is too hot. It's not good to have clothes that are wet and dry. The prince is still not as strong as the two princes."

Wen Beijiao replied.

"Forty-nine days... can you endure it?"

There has never been a time when Qian'er felt as grateful as he does now, that he is not the son of an emperor or a phoenix.

"Others want to kneel for forty-nine days but can't even do that!"

Wen Beijiao finally got to know what royal family was.

When one person died, the entire harem was taken away. But that was not enough, so a dozen palace maids were temporarily canonized and taken away as well.

At first he thought it was a martyrdom without any children, but later he found out that it was a martyrdom of all his life.

Among all the concubines, only Princess Baoqing's biological mother stayed.

"Be careful what you say."

Zhu Gaochi closed his eyes and stopped the two men from talking.

As time goes by, when Zhu Yunwen will be able to completely control the people under his grandfather's command, their every move will become the nail that hammers down the Prince of Yan's Mansion.

At this time, the three brothers are all acting in their true colors.

He always considers the overall situation and cares for his younger brother.

Zhu Gaoxu was arrogant and outspoken.

Zhu Gaosui was arrogant and good at speaking and fighting.

In the final analysis, his restraint of his two younger brothers was just a show.

The only three brothers in the Prince of Yan's Mansion are not on good terms with each other. The Prince of Yan is cowardly and cannot even suppress his two younger brothers.

He has been doing a good job of arranging things as if there is no successor in the Prince of Yan's Mansion and there is nothing to worry about.

At least it can buy some time for Prince Yan's Mansion.

It depends on whether the people above believe it or not.

Judging from Zhu Yunwen's behavior, the reduction of power among the princes was bound to happen.

It depends on whether you can delay it a little longer, the longer the better.

Make more trips overseas and earn more money. As long as money is not controlled by the imperial court, the Prince of Yan's Mansion can be self-sufficient and live a good life.

His father and mother also meant the same thing.

"What's the plan after forty-nine days?"

Wen Beijiao was silent for a while and asked.

"I don't know. Let's take a step at a time."

Zhu Gaochi has no idea yet.

At this moment, the palace must be struggling with whether it was the right move to recruit these grandchildren of the emperor.

But now that they have been summoned, they definitely don’t know what to do next.

If we keep it withheld, it would be like an advance warning - Princes, I, Zhu Yunwen, have already begun to guard against you -

If they don't hold it back, they are still worried that they will have no bargaining chips in their hands.

Really, just be stupid and die.
