Zhu Yuanzhang: Xiongying Was Right-The Imperial Clan Really Would Drag Down the Ming Dynasty!

Obviously!

From this moment, one could see who mattered more between Zhu Yuanzhang's other sons and Zhu Ying.

"Biao."

"At the end of the day, Xiongying is my legitimate eldest grandson, and you are my legitimate eldest son."

"When it comes to importance, no one else can compare."

"Perhaps I want all my descendants to live free from want, but your branch is the most important."

"Therefore, I cannot abandon Xiongying, much less abandon you." Zhu Yuanzhang turned his head and spoke to Zhu Biao with utmost solemnity.

This also revealed his intentions.

Those feudal princes enfeoffed outside the capital might be his descendants, and Zhu Yuanzhang might wish to bestow favor upon them, but Zhu Biao's branch would still come first.

"Then why didn't you try to keep Xiongying just now, Father?" Zhu Biao asked in confusion.

"I also want an answer. Will this policy of supporting the imperial clan truly affect the Ming Dynasty's national fortune? If Xiongying is right—"

"Then if he implements any policies beneficial to the Ming Dynasty in the future, I will trust him." Zhu Yuanzhang replied sternly.

Obviously.

By summoning the ministers, Zhu Yuanzhang also intended to verify whether Zhu Ying's claim that supporting the imperial clan was a policy that would bring ruin to the nation was truly correct.

"And what if Xiongying is wrong?" Zhu Biao asked in return.

"Then I can properly lecture and educate him in the future." Zhu Yuanzhang smiled smugly.

Obviously.

Zhu Yuanzhang was rather looking forward to the latter outcome.

If that were truly the case, Zhu Ying would have to behave himself before him.

"Father, you truly are cunning and farsighted."

After hearing all this, Zhu Biao spoke with a sigh.

"Your father isn't the cunning and farsighted one. That boy Xiongying is."
