"Where is this coal mountain? Zhen wants to see the place where our Ming Dynasty's last emperor hanged himself! It's a warning to future generations!"
Zhu Biao and the others were stunned when they heard that Emperor Hong Wu was going to Mei Mountain.
They had grown up in Jinling, but they had never heard of a place called Mei Mountain in the capital.
Looking at the guards around him, they were also dumbfounded. Clearly, they did not know where Mei Shan was either.
After a while, Prince of Yan Zhu Di stood up and said,""Imperial Father, your son does know of a coal mountain. However, it was not in Jinling, but in Beiping, where I was a vassal.”
"Puchi!"
Upon hearing Zhu Di's words, the king of Qin, Zhu Xi, went straight to day school. He couldn't help but laugh.
"Fourth brother, Mei Mountain was the place where the last emperor of Ming Dynasty hanged himself. Why did he come to your territory, Beiping? You must be crazy to want to move your vassal!"
"That's right, Fourth Brother. It was impossible for Mei Mountain to be in Beiping. Perhaps it was a mountain in Jinling that had changed its name.”
"Mei Mountain, Mei Mountain…I think this place is related to coal. Is there a mountain near Jinling that produces coal?”
"Kid Fang, don't keep me in suspense. Where is this mountain of coal?"
“……”
The other princes began to discuss the location of the coal mountain. Even Zhu Yuanzhang could not help but ask curiously.
"Your Majesty, the Mei Mountain where Chongzhen hanged himself was indeed in Beiping, where the King of Yan was guarding.”Fang Yunfei said.
"Nonsense! Why wasn't the great emperor of the Ming Dynasty guarding the capital and running to his fourth brother's territory? Just to get on the hook?"
A son of a thousand gold couldn't sit in the hall, let alone the ruler of a country.
Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head unhappily, thinking that Fang Yunfei was simply spouting nonsense.
"Your Majesty, Chongzhen didn't go to Beiping to hang himself, but the Ming Dynasty moved the capital from Jinling to Beiping in order to resist the invasion of the Northern Yuan.”
"Therefore, the later generations had an evaluation of the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty: 'The Son of Heaven guards the gates of the country, and the King dies for the country.'”
Since Mr. Zhu had asked, Fang Yunfei did not hide anything. He even told him the news of the Ming Dynasty moving the capital.
"So that's how it is!"
Crown Prince Zhu Biao nodded.
As the executive vice emperor of Ming Dynasty, he naturally knew that his father had always had the intention of moving the capital.
However, Imperial Father had always been very fond of Second Brother's Xi'an and Fifth Brother's Kaifeng.
He didn't expect his fourth brother's Beiping to catch up.
The world was really unpredictable.
Compared to Crown Prince Zhu Biao's calmness, the eyes of the King of Qin and the King of Zhou were red.
He didn't expect his father to really move the capital to Beiping, where his fourth brother was a vassal!
Everyone knew that the old master cared about family ties the most.
If the imperial court really moved the capital to Beiping, then the old man would definitely not mistreat Fourth Brother and would definitely give him a large reward as compensation.
This reward would definitely be much better than Fourth Brother becoming a vassal of Beiping!
Moreover, the fief after the transfer was definitely a good place!
Didn't you see the smug look on Fourth Brother's face?
How could this not make people jealous?
He was about to vomit blood!
"Beiping is the capital of the Yuan Dynasty, the key to Yan Yun's survival. Set the capital here, advance can attack, retreat can defend.”
"Moreover, there is the royal palace of the Yuan Dynasty there. Moving there can save a lot of money.”
"It's not bad to have Beiping as the capital."
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't dwell on the matter of moving the capital. Instead, he turned to Fang Yunfei and asked,""Kid Fang, what's the name of that Emperor Chongzhen? I want to see how many generations he is.”
Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang ask for Chongzhen's name, Crown Prince Zhu Biao also pricked up his ears and looked nervous.
"Your Majesty, Emperor Chongzhen's name is Zhu Youjian. He seems to be Your Majesty's eleventh grandson.”Fang Yunfei thought for a moment and said.
"Zhu Youjian…"
"By?"
"This isn't in the twenty words we gave to our son!”
" Who changed it for our old man?!"
Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment before he immediately burned with anger.
Emperor Hongwu gave each of his sons a 20-character lineage as a basis for future generations to recognize each other's origins and seniority.
As the most valued prince Zhu Biao, Zhu Yuanzhang gave him a 20-word lineage: " Yun Wen follows the instructions of the ancestors, Qin Wu Da Jun wins, along the way should meet auspicious, good teacher uses Sheng."
Just from these 20 words, one could see Emperor Hongwu's expectations and high regard for the Crown Prince.
However, the word 'by' was not in the twenty words he had given.
Someone definitely changed it.
Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry that he exploded!
You little bastard!
You even dare to change the words I came up with. No wonder our Ming died in the hands of your son!
He simply deserved a beating!
Emperor Hong Wu didn't hold back and kicked the Crown Prince.
Zhu Biao was stunned by his father's kick!
What sin had he committed?
Why did he have to bear the sins of his descendants?
However, his father was clearly furious. Moreover, his descendant did not do things properly. He even dared to change the word system given by his ancestor.
Therefore, Zhu Biao didn't run away. Instead, he stood where he was and allowed Zhu Yuanzhang to beat him up.
The other four princes stood at the side with great interest, looking as if they were watching the show.
They would not even dare to think about it if their father taught their elder brother a lesson in the past!
Since ancient times, the eldest brother has been like a father.
Moreover, Zhu Biao was not only their eldest brother, but also the Crown Prince of Great Ming!
In order to maintain the image of Zhu Biao in the hearts of his younger brothers, Zhu Yuanzhang never reprimanded the Crown Prince in front of the other princes.
Everything was handled by the two of them in private.
Zhu Biao did act like an elder brother in front of his younger brothers.
Not only did he love Zhu Di and the others, but he also often pleaded for his younger brothers. Sometimes, he would even teach them a lesson on behalf of Emperor Hongwu.
It made the brothers love, respect, and fear their big brother when they saw him.
Now that he saw his usually dignified and steady big brother being beaten up by his furious father, this was a once-in-a-century big melon!
The moment I opened my eyes, I saw my father beating my brother.
Hehe…
He could brag about this for the rest of his life!
Anyway, Imperial Father wouldn't hurt Eldest Brother.
If they didn't watch the show now, when would they?
Zhu Di and the others were so excited that they almost moved a stool and cheered loudly!
Fang Yunfei was still soft-hearted and couldn't stand it anymore. He stood at the side and advised,"Your Majesty, you can't blame the Crown Prince for this. Why did you hit him?"
"It's all his son's fault. If this old man doesn't punish him, who should he punish?”
Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily.
Zhu Biao raised his head and looked at Fang Yunfei gratefully.
Only Zhu Di and the other three sighed in their hearts.
There was an 80% chance that this good show would not end!
Fang Yunfei shook his head,"Your Majesty, you've wronged the Crown Prince." This matter really has nothing to do with him!"
"Tell me, how did our Old Zhu wrongly accuse him?”
Hearing Fang Yunfei constantly complaining about the Crown Prince's injustice, Zhu Yuanzhang finally stopped and prepared to listen to the reason he gave.
Fang Yunfei looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and said very seriously,
"Because the one who will inherit the throne in the future will not be the Crown Prince's son, but the line of the King of Yan.”
"The one who lost the Great Ming Dynasty was also the descendant of the King of Yan. It has nothing to do with the Crown Prince.”
"Even if you want to beat him up, you should beat up the King of Yan!”
"What does it have to do with the Crown Prince?"
