Chapter: 32

Because Zhu Di, who is sitting on the emperor's seat, is the second son!

"I asked him to find an answer to the clan's support problem, but he pointed at me and scolded Huai!"

Zhu Di slapped the railing hard, a few cracks appeared on the wood, and his anger still persisted.

"Smart people like to play tricks like this."

Dao Yan finally opened his mouth and said: "It's like Xie Jin tearing up the painting in the Palace of Heavenly Kings today, presenting a picture of a white tiger looking back, saying that when the Zhou Dynasty was enfeoffed... all his actions were just to achieve his goal."

"snort!"

Zhu Di snorted coldly, and said angrily: "I know, these civil servants don't like me, they think I'm a rebellious thief, just like the military leaders of the Five Dynasties who are 'strong soldiers, horses and strong kings'... just like me They don’t like the second child either! They prefer Jianwen’s [benevolent to civil officials], so they can manipulate the boss!”

Zhu Di knew that he was speechless for a while, but fortunately he didn't have to worry about anything in front of Dao Yan, so he retracted the topic and started talking.

"Smart people like to play tricks, so isn't Jiang Xinghuo smarter than Xie Jin and others?"

"A bunch of scumbags, they talk about high-mindedness, and when they climb up, they bend lower than anyone else!"

Zhu Di lifted up his clothes and sat in front of the chessboard stool.

"Jiang Xinghuo is indeed the most intelligent person I have ever seen."

With a sigh, Dao Yan picked up a chess piece from the chess basket and put it down again, saying repeatedly.

"It's a pity to kill... It's a pity to kill..."

Zhu Di stared at the criss-crossing chess game in front of him, lowered his head and asked, "So Master Daoyan still thinks that this person should be killed?"

"Then allow the old monk to ask presumptuously."

Dao Yan's skinny palms covered the chess board, and he looked at Zhu Di seriously.

"If you don't kill Jiang Xinghuo, does your majesty want to make the second prince the crown prince?"

"Why did the master say that?" Zhu Di was slightly surprised.

Dao Yan stretched out his hand to disrupt the chess game, and said calmly: "Jing Nan's credit, if the second prince is a general under His Majesty's command, how much credit does His Majesty think can be ranked?"

"Nature is number one."

Zhu Di hardly hesitated. In fact, this was also a fact recognized by Yan Jun.

In the battle of Jingnan, the brave Zhu Gaoxu followed the king of Yan, Zhu Di, and took the lead in every battle.

Capturing the flag, beheading the general, ascending first, and breaking the formation are worthy of the phrase "champion of the three armies bravely".

Warriors don't understand so many reasons, they only recognize the credit of real swords and guns on the battlefield, and the generals headed by Qiu Fu are extremely supportive of Zhu Gaoxu.

Of course, Zhu Gaochi and Daoyan, who were in charge of coordinating food, grass, logistics, civilian husbands and auxiliary soldiers, and garrison management, also had credit, but these credits paled in comparison to the too dazzling record of Zhu Gaoxu, who commanded the heavy cavalry of the Yan army. many.

"The first prince is lenient and good at handling government affairs; the second prince is brave and good at leading troops to fight. They have only inherited half of His Majesty's talent, and whoever can make up for the missing part will become more like His Majesty's successor."

"Your Majesty is going to make great achievements, and this old man is a little presumptuous in his speech today." Dao Yan asked in a condensed voice: "Although Your Majesty knows that the eldest prince is more suitable to be the crown prince in terms of legal principles and governance, but His Majesty loves Kuxiao himself more. The second prince who is both father and son and comrade-in-arms with me, right?"

Facing Dao Yan's scorching gaze, Zhu Di tightened his lips, and finally nodded.

Zhu Di and Dao Yan have known each other for decades, and together they did rebellion and lost their heads. He is very clear about the sincerity of this old friend to him. Similarly, he does not intend to hide this kind of thought that is not necessary to hide too much.

In this world, if Zhu Di still has a person who can talk freely, it can only be Dao Yan who has been with him for twenty years, only to realize his [ideal in his heart].

"In the past, not only His Majesty felt that the Second Prince had a bad temper and could not be taught, but also Emperor Taizu Gao, and his uncle Wei Guogong too... Then Your Majesty thinks carefully, is there anyone who can make the Second Prince like Jiang Xinghuo? The prince is so respectful from the bottom of his heart, and willing to listen to his teachings?"

Zhu Di pondered for a long time, and finally had to admit that what Dao Yan said was right.

No one can be so willing to listen to Zhu Gaoxu, who has been violent and stubborn since he was a child, and who is domineering and murderous outside.

Dao Yan asked again: "Does Your Majesty think that the eldest prince can learn to lead troops to fight through learning?"

"Chi'er is lame and fat, so of course she can't."

"But under the guidance of Jiang Xinghuo, the second prince can learn how to govern and how to manage." Dao Yan's eyes were unpredictable, "Now that Jing Nan has just ended, the second prince's reputation in the army is at its peak. under......"

"If Your Majesty doesn't kill Jiang Xinghuo, isn't it because he wants to make the second prince the crown prince?"
