Zhu Biao's life was extended by six years by eating chicken, but his only notable achievement was to eliminate the influential forces in the court.
And this was because Zhu Yunhao killed Lan Yu first, the nobles rebelled, and the vassal king was forced to retreat, so Zhu Biao took advantage of the situation.
And the forces of the vassal kings all over Ming became stronger and stronger under Zhu Biao's connivance.
It could only be said that Zhu Biao was too kind.
Moreover, there was no successor.
More importantly, Zhu Biao had never noticed the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce that could poison the emperor to death in the future.
In the six years that Zhu Biao was in power, the population of Ming Dynasty did not increase but decreased instead, which undoubtedly proved Zhu Biao's failure as emperor.
Moreover, Zhu Yuanzhang thought of Zhu Biao's haggard appearance after being bedridden for a long time and still having to deal with state affairs, and his heart ached.
He felt that perhaps not letting Zhu Biao be the emperor was the best choice for Zhu Biao.
"It still has to be Little Fifteen."
Zhu Yuanzhang opened his eyes. Suddenly, a series of exclamations came from the side hall next door.
"I don't want to die! I don't want to drink poisoned wine!"
"Zhu Di, you evil thief! You actually stole my throne again!”
Zhu Yuanzhang sat up.
"Your, Your Majesty, His Highness Yun Wen and His Highness Yun Ren are talking in their sleep.”
A eunuch hurriedly stepped forward and said.
"Did the Crown Prince wake up?"
"He's already awake."
The eunuch paused for a moment." However, His Highness the Crown Prince's condition doesn't seem right. After he woke up, he didn't speak. It's as if he had lost his soul."”
"Zhen will go and see the Crown Prince."
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and went straight to the side hall. He found Zhu Biao, who had already sat up, staring blankly at the air in front of him.
"Crown Prince."
"What's wrong with you?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked with concern.”
" Ah! Father! Father!"
When Zhu Biao saw Zhu Yuanzhang, tears suddenly appeared in his eyes. He knelt on the ground and hugged Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Imperial Father, your son, your son had a dream just now. I dreamt that you were gone!”
Zhu Biao was in tears.
Zhu Yuanzhang was also very touched. He patted Zhu Biao's head and said,"Crown Prince, this is just a dream. Don't think too much about it.”
"Imperial Father, I also dreamed that the Great Ming Dynasty almost perished in my hands!!”
"Crown Prince, forget about this dream. All of this is fake.”
Zhu Yuanzhang consoled softly.
Zhu Biao gradually calmed down and said,""Imperial Father, Yun Wen and Yun Ren might not be able to take on such a great responsibility! Your son requests to personally assess their abilities!”
"Crown Prince, no matter what you want to do, Zhen will support you.”
Zhu Yuanzhang said faintly.
"Also, Imperial Father, I would like to personally preside over the marriage of my fifteenth brother." Zhu Biao said.”
"Yeah, that works too."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said earnestly,""Little Fifteen and the girl from the Tiande family, as the eldest brother, you must matchmake them more!”
"Your son understands!"
Zhu Biao's eyes sparkled. After becoming the emperor in his dream, he realized that Zhu Xu might be extraordinary.
By hosting Zhu Xu's wedding, Zhu Biao could also find an opportunity to get close to Zhu Xu.
..............
In Zhu Xu's bedroom.
After Xu Miaojin and Xu Huizu questioned the palace maids and eunuchs, they gradually realized that Zhu Xuzhen was not an ordinary person.
"You meditate and cultivate every morning? Many times, he would meditate through the night and then go to the main hall to sleep? He had to go to the Imperial Academy of Medicine every week to get medicinal herbs and then use them to refine pills?”
Xu Huizu knew that Zhu Xu liked Taoism, but he did not expect Zhu Xu to be so obsessed.
If he were to meditate without doing anything, he probably wouldn't be able to last two hours.
Not to mention not sleeping for the entire night.
"Do the chickens here need to be fed medicinal pills every once in a while? Would they usually feed the chickens some of the medicinal dregs from the pill refinement?”
Xu Miaojin looked at the majestic roosters in the courtyard and felt that the pills refined by Zhu Xu were extraordinary.
"Younger sister, it's already noon. We should go and see His Highness the Fifteenth Prince.”
It was time for lunch.
Xu Huizu said to Xu Miaojin.
"Elder brother, in front of us is the study room of the Fifteenth Prince. I want to take a look, so there's no rush to eat.”
Xu Miaojin quickly walked toward a room.
Xu Huizu could only follow.
After entering the room, Xu Miaojin found a bookshelf filled with books and a desk.
A flower vase was standing at the side with a few plum blossoms in it.
It was supposed to be midsummer, but the plum blossoms in the vase were in full bloom. An alluring fragrance of flowers permeated the air.
Xu Huizu was completely stunned when he saw those plum blossoms.
This was the first time he had seen such a situation where flowers bloomed against the season!
Xu Miaojin's eyes were filled with surprise. She immediately went to the desk and found that there were a few books on the clean desk.
There were no names on the covers of these books.
Xu Miaojin flipped open the first page of a book, and thin golden words that looked like they were carved by a knife and axe suddenly appeared in front of her eyes.
Xu Miaojin's eyes lit up even more, but she suddenly realized that the contents of the book were the Tao Te Ching.
However, it was different from ordinary Tao Te Ching. Every word in this book seemed to have a different charm. Xu Miaojin couldn't help but read on after reading the beginning.
Xu Huizu, who was standing at the side, finally came back to his senses. He noticed that his little sister was reading seriously. He walked up and looked at the nameless books on the desk.
He also picked up a random book and flipped to the front page, only to discover that it was a Taiji Fist manual.
The small words on the Taiji Fist manual were all thin gold body!
Xu Huizu was also very quickly attracted.
It was not until the eunuchs in the palace called them that they came back to their senses.
"Where did the Fifteenth Prince get these books from? I want to buy some too!"
After Xu Huizu put down the book, he felt a little reluctant. Although he had only read a few pages, he found that he had a lot of new insights into fist techniques, and his martial arts seemed to have improved a little.
"These books were copied by His Highness when he was bored.”
the eunuch said.
Xu Miaojin and Xu Huizu were even more surprised.
The two of them then came to the bedroom and smelled a strange fragrance from afar. They swallowed their saliva.
They had eaten a lot of stewed chicken.
However, this was the first time they had seen such fragrant chicken.
All the delicacies on the table were overshadowed by this taste.
"The imperial chef sent some dishes over."
"Help yourselves."
After Zhu Xu finished speaking, he picked up a drumstick with his chopsticks and started eating.
Seeing this, Xu Huizu didn't stand on ceremony. He first picked up a chicken wing and placed it in Xu Miaojin's bowl.
Xu Miaojin lowered her head and took a bite. Her eyes lit up, and she no longer cared about her young girl's modesty. She quickly picked up the chicken and ate it.
Xu Huizu was also surprised to see this, but after tasting the chicken soup, he also joined the ranks of picking up chicken.
Soon, more than half of the rooster had entered the siblings 'stomachs.
"Um, um, Your Highness, I'm sorry, but the chicken is too delicious.”
Xu Huizu wiped his mouth and said in an embarrassed manner.
"No worries."
"Your Highness, can I take the Tao Te Ching you wrote back to the palace to take a look?”
Xu Miaojin suddenly asked expectantly.
"Sure."
Zhu Xu replied faintly.
Hearing this, Xu Miaojin's lips immediately curled up. She was very happy.
"Um, Brother-in-law, can you lend me that Taiji Fist manual for two days?”
"I can't."
"Ah?"
Xu Huizu was stunned.
Zhu Xu ignored Xu Huizu and went straight to the bed to meditate.
To him, Xu Miaojin was a guest that his Imperial Father wanted him to receive. He had already accepted this reason, so he naturally had to treat her with courtesy.
However, Xu Huizu and Zhu Xu would not be involved if they could!
