In the twenty-fifth year of Hongwu of Ming Dynasty, Yingtian was in the palace.
The death of Crown Prince Zhu Biao caused the entire Ming Dynasty to fall into a state of mourning. Crown Prince Zhu Biao was a generous person, and he was loved by the civil and military officials and the common people.
His death made the entire Great Ming Dynasty seem to have lost its vitality.
And the one who suffered the most was none other than the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang!
Zhu Yuanzhang was in his own bedroom, not eating or sleeping.
He seemed to have lost his mind!
The Emperor of Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang, had fought his way from a beggar to the current emperor. He had suffered more than ordinary people.
He was loved by the heavens, and at the same time, he was a pitiful person.
All these years, he had watched his many brothers who had fought for the country leave one after another. Many of them had been sent off by him personally.
His heart was suffering. He thought he was strong enough.
However, he didn't expect Crown Prince Zhu Biao to leave as soon as Empress Ma left.
This made his heart unable to hold back.
"Our lives are bitter!"
"Empress, you just left, and Biao 'er also left us. How am I supposed to live?”
"What about Big Ming?"
With Crown Prince Zhu Biao gone, all his years of training had gone to waste.
With Zhu Biao gone, the Imperial Court would fight for the throne. Many Princes would definitely have thoughts of fighting for the throne. This was inevitable.
This also went against the idea of his eldest son becoming an emperor that he had tried his best to spread back then.
Unfortunately, the Crown Prince had already left. The current problem was indeed for him to bear and make arrangements.
Zhu Yuanzhang's hair was disheveled, and he was wearing a loose dragon robe. He was already old, and his energy was far from what it used to be.
"I'm old and don't have the energy to continue nurturing a wise ruler.”
Zhu Yuanzhang was indeed old!
He was already sixty-five years old. Coupled with the death of the Empress and the Crown Prince, he was already exhausted. However, he still had to choose an heir to be the future Emperor of Ming Dynasty.
He could only choose a smart and capable person to be his successor.
A few people flashed through his mind. Among them were the Second Prince, Third Prince, Fourth Prince, and Fifth Prince.
Among his sons, there were brave sons who followed Xu Da, Tang He, and the others to conquer the country, and there were also relatively intelligent sons.
There were many candidates, such as the fourth prince Zhu Di.
It was a pity that they were not the eldest sons. If they were chosen as the crown prince and the future emperor, would the Ming Dynasty be able to last for thousands of generations?
Would their future descendants really not follow suit?
He was the first emperor of Great Ming, so he couldn't open this door!
However, his eldest grandson, Zhu Xiongying, had also passed away ten years ago…
Zhu Yuanzhang fell into deep thought, and his gaze became more and more chaotic.
His eldest grandson had also left. This was indeed very difficult.
At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to have aged ten years.
. Soon, Zhu Yuanzhang began to recall the candidates for the crown prince in his mind.
Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Yunyan, the two imperial grandchildren, recalled in their minds.
The Crown Prince had just passed away, so he naturally needed a crown prince or a supervisor, and the sooner the appointment was made.
Zhu Yuanzhang was afraid that his body would not be able to withstand it.
However, in his mind, the impression of these two grandsons was still Zhu Yunwen's filial piety and Zhu Yunyan's timidity.
Could these two grandsons really resist Lan Yu and these uncles?
If Biao 'er was here, the Second Prince, Third Prince, Fourth Prince, and other sons would be very convinced because they were all very convinced by their big brother.
However, it was hard to say for these two grandsons.
If it was an arrogant and despotic general like Lan Yu, it would still be very easy to eliminate him. After all, no matter how meritorious he was, if Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to remove his head, he would do so!
However, Zhu Yuanzhang could not bear to kill these sons.
But for the sake of Da Ming's future, it was hard to say whether this grandson and these juniors could withstand the pressure of his sons.
Therefore, he wanted to see the standards of these two grandsons!
"Jiang He, go and call Zhu Yunhe and Zhu Yunwen over.”
"Yes, Your Majesty."
When Jiang Meng heard this, he left respectfully.
Soon, Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Yunhao were brought over.
"Royal grandson Zhu Yunwen greets royal grandfather.”
"Royal grandson Zhu Yunhao greets royal grandfather.”
Zhu Yunhao looked at Zhu Yuanzhang. He knew that it was not a small matter to look for him and Zhu Yunwen at this time.
He was not from this world. He had transmigrated into Zhu Yunhao's body.
It had already been ten years since he transmigrated. During these years, he had kept a low profile and basically did not like to talk. He was settling down and stabilizing himself.
However, he knew that now was not the time to be steady.
After being steady for so many years, it was time to explode.
There was no longer the usual confusion and dullness in his eyes. Instead, there was a hint of shrewdness.
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded when he saw his two grandsons.
Among the grandsons he had left behind, only these two were of suitable age!
Zhu Yunyu was born to the wife of Zhang Biao's son, and Zhu Yunwen was born to a concubine.
Zhu Yuanzhang: " Good grandson, I know that you are sad. I am also sad that your father has left.”
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed as he spoke.
"Grandpa asked you to come here today to test you.”
