Ming Dynasty: The Crocodile King of Han Prince Zhu Gaoxu's Family

Chapter 145 Zhu Zhanhe: Dad, take a letter back to my mother and the others!

"I wonder what Dad wants to say?" Zhu Zhanhe looked at the empty tent and thought of the soldiers patrolling the area. He knew that his father, Prince Han, had something to say. Zhu Zhanhe looked at his father, Prince Han, who looked a little melancholy and had an inexplicable look in his eyes. He sat down on the ground in front of Prince Han and asked softly.

"He'er, why are you working so hard today?" Prince Han asked directly the question in his mind.

"Dad, what do you think it is for?" Zhu Zhanhe did not answer the question directly, but asked the Prince of Han instead.

"You want to speed up the battle and save that brat!" Prince Han picked up the wine glass and said unwillingly. He was very dissatisfied with his son saving Zhu Zhanji!

"Dad still understands me!" Zhu Zhanhe did not deny what his father said.

"Then why did you save him?
Do you know that if he died, I, your father, would be the crown prince! And you would be the grandson of the crown prince!
You are the future emperor! " Prince Han obviously understood what happened on the battlefield today, and his tone was full of unwilling questioning.

"Dad, if uncle takes over, we and Third Uncle's family will all survive!
If you come to power, the families of my eldest uncle and third uncle will be wiped out!

If my son ascends the throne in the future, the struggle for the throne in my Ming Dynasty will never stop!
What would Tandi, Qidi, and Qidi think? Would they follow your example and do it again?

My son, will your grandchildren do the same?! They will continue to do so for generations to come!

I don't want history books to record that everyone in my family is a bunch of usurpers of power!
Our family already has one, we don’t need more! " Zhu Zhanhe casually said what he was thinking. The Zhu family only had one usurper, Emperor Yongle, and they didn’t need too many usurpers!

"What else?" Prince Han was also stunned when he heard this. He was silent for a moment, and then Prince Han continued to ask.

"Dad, those problems are too difficult to solve effectively! They can't be solved!

How about we, father and son, play another game?!" Zhu Zhanhe stood up, walked to Prince Han, came close, and whispered in his ear.

"What?!" Prince Han was stunned for a moment after hearing this, but then he realized that the problem his son was talking about was the problem that could lead to the fall of the Ming Dynasty. And the meaning of opening another game was obviously that they would establish the world again!
"You want to overthrow the court again?!" Prince Han looked at his son in astonishment and asked softly with an uncertain tone.

"Dad, what are you talking about? I want to build my own kingdom!" Zhu Zhanhe said truthfully to the Prince of Han.

"Hit yourself? Where do you hit?
You found the right place! "Suddenly, Prince Han seemed to have thought of something and asked in shock.

"Dad, I told you before that the place is not small!" Zhu Zhanhe narrowed his eyes and reminded the Prince of Han what he had said before.

"How can the barbaric land compare with the Central Plains!" Prince Han was stunned after hearing Zhu Zhanhe's words, but he muttered to himself. Although he still spoke stubbornly, Prince Han was also somewhat moved.

"He'er, do you know how much effort and how long it took me to arrange for that killer to enter the vanguard camp?" Prince Han suddenly remembered that he had previously arranged a killer from the Jingnan orphan to be in the vanguard camp in order to kill the crown prince and cut off the future of the entire prince's lineage!

“But Dad, even if he was given the opportunity, he couldn’t seize it.

He didn't kill the enemy even when he had the best chance on the battlefield, and he was even killed by the grassland cavalry. In the end, I killed the grassland cavalry to silence them!" Zhu Zhanhe said to the Prince of Han angrily.

"Dad, if we want to do great things, we must do them openly and honestly. I don't like these little tricks!" Zhu Zhanhe continued to say to Prince Han.

"You are doing it openly? What do you want to do?" Prince Han asked his son in a bad mood.

"Dad, I will get married after I return from this battle.

After the child gets married, he will go directly to his fiefdom in Yunnan.

Please continue to help build the big ship!
Since Dad doesn't want to give up everything here, let's split up and do things separately!" Zhu Zhanhe saw that he really couldn't persuade Prince Han, so he could only settle for the next best thing and split up the Prince Han's Mansion and go to Yunnan to build it himself, leaving Prince Han to continue working hard in Beijing!
"You want to split the palace?!" Prince Han asked his son in astonishment.

"Dad, since we can't convince each other, let's just do things according to our own ideas!
Let's make a pact. In the end, whoever performs better will accept defeat. How about that?!" Zhu Zhanhe had no choice but to yield to the stubborn Prince of Han, who was unwilling to give up the throne, and adopt a simpler and more effective approach.

"Dad, I know that the baggage train is all yours, and you now hold important information about the capital.

But what I want is not just the throne, but also the safety of our whole family!

I hope Dad can understand!" Zhu Zhanhe said to Prince Han with a serious and solemn face.

"What do you want to do?" Prince Han looked at his son's serious face and thought of his wife and children at home. He suddenly felt a little inexplicably lost, but still asked.

"Let's report back home first! Since the baggage train belongs to Dad, there's no problem having them take a letter home.

Also, let the child's future father-in-law go to his fiefdom in Yunnan to take charge of affairs.

And let him help build the big ship. This is what the child must do, regardless of whether Dad agrees or not." Zhu Zhanhe made a statement to the Prince of Han that could not be refused.

"If I can't ascend the throne, you will be the future prince! If I ascend the throne, you will be the future emperor! What do you want the big ship for?!" Prince Han looked at his stubborn son, still thinking about the big ship, and asked with depression.

"Dad, you don't think that what I said in grandpa's bedroom that day is all the news, right?!" Zhu Zhanhe said to his father, Prince Han, with a smile on his face.

"what?
what are you saying?!

What other information do you have? " Prince Han hesitated at first, but finally, he suddenly thought of something, widened his eyes, and asked in astonishment.

"Yes, I only know of an open-pit iron mine, which is enough for the Ming Dynasty to mine for a few hundred years!" Looking at the astonished look of his father, Prince Han, Zhu Zhanhe waved his hand and said calmly.

"The steel production of my Ming Dynasty is 20 million kilograms per year!" Prince Han thought he had heard it wrong, so he stood up and walked to his son, saying with horror in his eyes.

"Dad, I know what you are talking about. So, I know an open-pit iron mine whose annual output is no less than that of the Ming Dynasty!" Zhu Zhanhe looked at the shocked Prince Han, turned his head and said to his father with a smile on his face.

The Prince of Han gulped his saliva and looked at his son in front of him with disbelief. He didn't know whether what his son said was true or false.

But Prince Han didn't want to gamble, because no matter whether he was the emperor or not, he had to give it a try!
If he weren't the emperor, this mine would be his greatest asset! If he were the emperor, his name would go down in history!
"Is there any other news about him?" Prince Han asked expectantly.

"Yes. For example, he knows a place with hundreds of thousands of buffalo. No one can control them!

He even knows of a territory larger than the Ming Dynasty! And…” Before Zhu Zhanhe could finish his words, Prince Han raised his hand to stop him from saying the next thing.

"What message do you want to bring home?!" Finally, after a long time, Prince Han recovered from his shock. At this moment, Prince Han asked his son with eyes full of desire.

"Write a letter to my mother to let her know I'm safe.

Then write a letter to the little girl at home.

I also wrote a letter to my future father-in-law, asking him to go directly to Yunnan to take charge of the situation.

Finally, write a letter to your unmarried daughter-in-law!" Zhu Zhanhe counted on his fingers and told Prince Han about the letter he wanted to write home. Prince Han's brows twitched when he heard it.
