If Zhu Jun is still the same as before, that's fine.
To this day, Zhu Jun has more than 100,000 available soldiers, making him a great vassal king.
Although his vassal territory has not yet been determined, staying in Fengyang will inevitably lead to bad speculations.
Zhu Yu said at this time: "A man of great integrity, I promise a thousand pieces of gold. My father and I all made a bet with Lao Liu. If we don't fulfill it today and the news spreads in the future, won't we think that all the monarchs of my great cause are dishonest people?"
However, the relationship between my two brothers is not as good as outsiders would say.
My sixth brother stays in the capital, and I am like an extra arm. If he wants to stay in Zhongdu, he can stay in Zhongdu, and if he wants to be a vassal, he can be a vassal.
Don't be alarmist and ruin the relationship between our brothers! "
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Who would have thought that the prince would trust King Wu to such an extent.
Liu Ji frowned deeply. The prince has always been wise. This is not pampering, but rather flattering.
But according to the past, the relationship between the two is not like the prince taking retreat in order to advance.
"No, the King of Wu was crazy in the past, and he only knew how to fight, drink, and gamble. Today, the King of Wu has become the mainstay of the great cause.
No one dares to underestimate him. Perhaps His Highness the Crown Prince is retreating in order to advance and tie King Wu to his side to monitor him.
Moreover, the prince was ill, so leaving King Wu in the capital would attract the attention of others.
In this way, it achieves multiple things with one stone.
By then, the kings will naturally take action without His Highness the Crown Prince taking action!
As time goes by, His Majesty will also take action. "
Thinking of this, Liu Ji took a deep breath. His Royal Highness was indeed thoughtful.
Song Lian was angry and anxious, but what the prince said was right, so he turned his gaze to Zhu Jun, "You stupid king, you want to ruin Chao Gang, my great cause, what are your intentions?
If you are really good for His Highness the Crown Prince, then hurry up and join the feudal clan instead of staying in the capital. "
Many people followed suit and accused Zhu Jun of harboring evil intentions.
No one dared to say a word for Zhu Jun. This kind of thing was wrong no matter what.
Zhu Yuanzhang also felt that he had made a mistake. He did not expect this boy to be so capable at the beginning. Now he was in a dilemma and it was difficult to solve.
At this moment, Liu Ji said: "If His Highness King Wu insists on staying in Fengyang, it is not impossible. He can disperse his guards and let the imperial court take charge."
How could a vassal king without military power cause any disturbance in the capital?
He felt that his proposal should have reached His Highness the Crown Prince's heart. He couldn't help but glance at the Crown Prince, and then turned his gaze to Zhu Yuanzhang, "Your Majesty, this is a compromise. If you can't do this, King Wu will You absolutely cannot stay in the capital."
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned. This compromise method sounded like killing a donkey.
There is no doubt about Zhu Jun's original intentions. If it weren't for the boss, this kid wouldn't be so dedicated.
Zhu Yu was also helpless.
At this moment, Zhu Jun said: "The people under my command are all in Liaodong, which is no less than three thousand miles away from Fengyang, which is beyond our reach.
The reason why I stay in Beijing is because I initiated the new system and I need to see its complete implementation.
When the new system is implemented, I will leave Fengyang. The world is huge and I can choose any place to establish a vassal state.
Before that, the people under my command were under the jurisdiction of the imperial court. "
Zhu Jun knew that if he wanted to stay in the capital, he needed a reason. Was it because of the trust and favor of his father and brother?
Lao Zhu and Eldest Brother are both wise monarchs. Although they are somewhat arbitrary, they will not act arbitrarily in the face of such major right and wrong.
Zhu Yuanzhang also said: "Yes, no one understands this new system better than Lao Liu, and he still has projects to supervise. If others are allowed to supervise the work, we won't worry."
Zhu Yu also helped, "Just do what Lao Liu said, I will naturally send people to supervise the Suzaku Army in Liaodong.
However, Lao Liu's stay in the capital is not a reward. On the contrary, it is to help me and my father.
No one has experience with this kind of thing. If you do it well, it's okay, but if you don't do it well, you may be stabbed in the back by the people.
Therefore, the rewards that should be given must still be given. "
Zhu Jun was a little touched, he had to be the eldest brother, and he was always thinking about not letting him suffer.
How could Zhu Yu want his soldiers?
It's just a show, the military power will definitely remain in his own hands.
"Since I can't think of any rewards now, I'll think about it slowly, and it won't be too late to mention it in the future!" Zhu Yuanzhang directly decided, "It's getting late, let's have a banquet!"
The father and son cooperated so well that no one had any room to interrupt.
Song Lian was so angry that he was twitching.
When Liu Ji saw this, he whispered a few words in his ear. Song Lian was doubtful, "Really?"
"If you don't believe the prince, don't you even believe his majesty?" Liu Ji said with a smile.
Song Lian gritted his teeth, "The King of Wu is so good at pretending, I'm afraid that the two of them will be deceived by the King of Wu!"
"Are you the only smart person in this world?" Liu Ji reminded him and said nothing more.
Song Lian also suddenly realized that his majesty and the prince were stupider than him?
impossible.
The reason for this may be that he has other plans.
He glanced at Yang Xian and then remembered that from beginning to end, Yang Xian, the left prime minister, had not said a word.
Is it really what Liu Ji said?
Song Lian felt a little more confident and felt much better.
This banquet was extremely sumptuous, and Lao Zhu also feasted on it.
He is frugal enough on weekdays, but on days like this, he will never be frugal.
Good steel should be used on the blade, which is one of his main purposes.
Zhu Jun, on the other hand, was isolated. Even Xu Jinda and Tang Ding did not come over to toast him, but only raised their glasses from a distance.
If you think about it carefully, isn’t this politically correct?
After all, he is an adult prince and is in charge of the army. At this time, no matter who gets too close to him, it is inevitable that others will think that he is fawning, or even... an ally!
Therefore, none of these courtiers is stupid, and every one of them knows how to protect themselves wisely.
Zhu Jun was quite happy, minding his own business, drinking wine and eating vegetables.
But when he was halfway through the meal, Zhu Yu left the scene and called Zhu Jun away.
When everyone saw this scene, their expressions were a little strange.
"Brother, where are you going?" Zhu Jun pushed Zhu Yu and asked.
"Go to the Royal Garden and take a look. The fish in the lake haven't been fed fish grass for two days." Zhu Yu said.
Soon, the two came to the Royal Garden.
All kinds of vegetables in the garden are growing happily, and there are all kinds of fruits hanging on them, and there are no weeds. It seems that Lao Zhu is very diligent here, and there is still a smell of manure in the air.
When he thought of Lao Zhu, an emperor picking up excrement, he felt inexplicably inconsistent.
However, the admiration in my heart is even deeper. I am afraid that no other emperor in this world can achieve this level.
Unlike those people who put on a show, Lao Zhu came from hard times and he knew very well how important it is to hold food in his hands.
