Ming Dynasty: Abandoned baby at the beginning, Zhu let me be the emperor

The rebels in Hunan were not as good as Zhu Di's elite troops who had been fighting in Mobei for many years, and now they were at the end of their strength.

In just a few moments, Zhu Di's army had dealt with most of the enemies, leaving only sporadic resistance, which was only a matter of time before being put down.

"Erhu, don't you still have the imperial edict?"

Zhu Di saw that the war had come to an end, so he shouted to the central army in the distance.

Erhu then ran back from the fighting in the central army and looked at Zhu Ming and the others.

Seeing that Erhu had arrived, Zhu Ming and the others also looked serious.

As the leader of the Jinyiwei around Zhu Yuanzhang, the order that he could personally convey must be the secret order from their royal grandfather.

"Your Majesty asked me to come here to tell you, the emperor's grandson, something."

Erhu looked at the three imperial grandchildren solemnly, with a serious expression on his face.

What he was about to say next concerned the secrets of the entire Ming Dynasty.

Seeing Erhu so serious, Zhu Ming and the others became even more focused.

"In fact, Your Highness Zhu Ming, His Majesty investigated your background."

Erhu looked at Zhu Ming and spoke in a deep voice, finally revealing the secret that had been hidden for more than ten years.

He revealed everything, including that he was Zhu Biao's youngest son, how Lu poisoned his mother, and how she hunted them down.

"what?"

After hearing the news, Zhu Ming stood there in a daze, at a loss as to what to do.

He knew that Zhu Yuanzhang had not told him something, but he did not expect it to be so important.

So, Zhu Yuanzhang had been hiding it from him, making him think that he was picked up by him?

This world was so chaotic that he couldn't react for a moment.

"Zhu Ming you...!"

Zhu Yunhuan and Zhu Yunwen were as shocked as Zhu Ming and were speechless.

It turns out that Zhu Ming is their half-brother?

Even his mother was murdered by the Crown Princess.

"Your Majesty knows that this news is difficult for you to accept for a while."

Erhu looked at the three imperial grandchildren who were so shocked as if they knew for the first time that there were secrets in this world. He could only slow down his tone and comfort them softly.

"Zhu Ming?"

It was Xu Miaojin who reacted first to Erhu's words. She looked at him and called out softly.

Hearing the voice of his beloved, Zhu Ming finally reacted, coughed lightly, and forced himself to calm down.

"So, why did Grandpa Huang ask you to tell me this now?"

He looked at Erhu seriously again and asked in confusion.

Tell him now what the intention is. This is what he needs to think clearly about now.

"Your Majesty feels that he is getting old, and he has thought about passing on the throne, so..."

Erhu looked at Zhu Ming, then carefully looked at the brothers Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Yunxun standing beside him.

"Absolutely ridiculous."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yunheng shrugged and gave a helpless smile.

It turned out that his thought of keeping the throne in the Zhu family was just his wishful thinking in the end.

But come to think of it, their royal grandfather rose from a beggar to the throne of emperor.

How could he do something like giving away his kingdom on impulse?

They should have thought of this possibility earlier.

"It seems that Grandpa Huang wants to pass the throne to you."

Zhu Yunwen spoke softly, lowered his head, and looked a little distraught.

I tried my best but in the end it was all in vain.

The only consolation is that the throne is still in the hands of his younger brother, not an outsider.

But even so, his previous actions seemed like those of a clown.

After fighting for so long, how could I accept it so quickly?

"Two royal brothers."

Seeing this, Zhu Ming took another step forward and tried to support them.

Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Yunhuan were not bad people. Even if I succeeded to the throne, I would not treat them unfairly.

"It's okay. At least the Ming Dynasty is still in the hands of the Zhu family."

Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Yunxun raised their hands and waved, their tone full of helplessness and bitterness.

"Now that you are the crown prince, it is our turn to pay respects."

As they spoke, they walked up to Zhu Ming and bowed.

Just as he was about to salute, Zhu Ming stopped him.

Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Yunxun looked up in surprise and looked at Zhu Ming who was chuckling.

"You and I are brothers. We just went through life and death together. Do we still need to be so polite?"

Zhu Ming spoke slowly and smiled casually.

They had just fought side by side, so even if there was a rift between them before, they should be able to resolve it now.

"My little nephew, you will be His Majesty in the future."

Zhu Di also came over, patted Zhu Ming on the shoulder, and laughed a few times as congratulations.

Even though he still had ambitions in his heart, Zhu Ming now had the support of all the civil and military officials in the court, and there were also Huaixi nobles in the army.

He could only hide his ambition.

"Uncle, what are you talking about? Mobei still relies on you."

Zhu Ming raised his head and smiled at Zhu Di.

Nowadays, Zhu Di is the only one in the world who is best at leading troops. If possible, he still hopes that Zhu Di can be used by him.

"His Majesty asked me to come here not only to tell His Highness the truth, but also to take His Highness back to succeed the throne."

After watching the Zhu family members finish their greetings, Erhu smiled and reminded them.

Zhu Yuanzhang had already thought about abdicating at this time, so he let him come.

"In that case, let's set off."

Zhu Ming nodded. Since Old Zhu couldn’t wait, let’s go back.

Anyway, they are not needed in the current battle situation.

at the same time.

"What happened in the court?"

In the East Palace, Mrs. Lu looked outside the door impatiently and couldn't help but ask.

In almost one day, her relationship between the Eastern Palace and the imperial court was severed, and those ministers stopped communicating with her.

This change really made her feel uneasy.

She always felt that there were unexpected changes in the court, but now all her communications had been cut off, which made her extremely panicked.

"Your Highness the Crown Princess."

A shrill voice suddenly came from outside the door, and a eunuch and two palace maids walked in, each holding a plate.

Lu looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the eunuch leading the group was Zhang Yong.

"Your Majesty asked me to bring you something."

Without waiting for Mrs. Lu to speak, Zhang Yong turned around with a cold face and removed the cloth from the two plates.

A plate, made of three feet of red silk.

The other plate contained a bottle of sake.

"Your Majesty has given the Crown Princess a glass of wine. For the sake of the Emperor's eldest grandson, I will spare your life. But if you don't drink it..."

Before Zhang Yong finished speaking, Lu had already understood what Zhu Yuanzhang meant and smiled bitterly...

"Oh, by the way, my two royal brothers."

Here, Zhu Ming stopped halfway and looked back at Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Yunxun and said, "I know a few good places with pleasant scenery, warm in winter and cool in summer. They just happen to be in need of an emperor. I wonder if you are interested."

"what?"

Zhu Yunhuan and Zhu Yunwen were even more surprised when they heard Zhu Ming's words.

What does Zhu Ming mean by this? Let them go to another place to be emperor?

"You and I are brothers, how can I treat you unfairly?"

Zhu Ming smiled and nodded. He almost forgot that he still had the nautical chart in his hand.

With so many good places around, he would definitely take them down.

He couldn't possibly manage it all by himself.

These brothers of mine are just what I need...
