Live History Broadcast: Opening Ceremony Spoilers - Our Ancestor Was Enraged

Chapter 673 Prince Zhao, Zhu Gaosui

"This story begins with a simple meeting between an uncle and nephew. According to another account, the eldest nephew, Zhu Zhanji, who became emperor, went to visit his second uncle, who was staying at home, when he had nothing to do."

"For example, he wanted to know if his second uncle was comfortable living in the villa he had arranged for him. His grandfather and father only had these two younger brothers, and as a nephew, he had to take good care of his uncle."

Zhu Gaoxu & Zhu Gaosui: ...

"But, I don't know if it was because my nephew was too enthusiastic or because the atmosphere of the conversation was not very good, Zhu Gaoxu stretched out his foot, and then Zhu Zhanji fell flat on his face."

"Who is Zhu Zhanji? He is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. To be treated like this and lose face in front of everyone, he has no pride. Of course he was very angry, so the consequences were very serious."

"He ordered his men to cover the King of Han with a large vat weighing three hundred catties, but the King of Han was always brave and strong. Even though he was covered, he kept bumping around with the vat on his head."

"As a result, Emperor Xuanzong became even angrier and ordered people to burn charcoal and light a fire. In the end, no matter how unruly the Prince of Han was, he went down to see his father and brothers."

Zhu Gaochi of the Ming Dynasty: (Δ′)! …

During the Yongle era, Zhu Gaoxu was filled with hatred. He thought to himself, "You, Zhu Zhanji, I never imagined you would die like this!"

The Prince of Han of the Ming Dynasty died in such a humiliating way. The anger in his heart rushed to his head. Zhu Gaochi smiled insincerely and prepared to give his nephew a lesson of "love".

"Nephew, your second uncle will spar with you!"

Zhu Zhanji knew things were going badly; his second uncle looked like he wanted to kill him. He'd better make a run for it!

Seeing this scene, Zhu Di, who was already in a bad mood, was further exacerbated.

The former Prince Yan and Jianwen are the future Zhanji and Gaoxu, uncle and nephew brothers, involved in the imperial power struggle. Anyone could be ruthless. Thinking of this, Zhu Di sighed.

……

Back to the live broadcast room.

"Looking at Prince Zhao, Zhu Gaosui, he was the youngest of the three Zhu brothers. Compared to his wise and steady eldest brother, Gao Chi, or his brave and mischievous second brother, Gao Xu, there seems to be no particularly special record of the third brother, Gaosui."

"During the Jingnan Rebellion, Fang Xiaoru used a divisive tactic, specifically praising Gao Chi and Gao Sui. He said that the Crown Prince was benevolent and had the support of the people, but the youngest son was wicked and had followed his second brother's bad ways. He loved to go to Judy and tattle on her whenever he had nothing to do."

"And just like his second brother Jin Douzi, he wanted to seize the eldest brother's position. Just like Fang Xiaoru sent a letter to Gao Chi to sow discord between the Prince of Yan and his son, Zhu Gaosui's first thought was to drag the eldest brother down with him. Of course, the second brother was the same."

"Zhu Di was quite clear-headed, so he didn't believe it. Later, when his father became emperor, Zhu Gaosui was enfeoffed as the Prince of Zhao."

"However, it was not easy for Zhu Gaochi to be the crown prince. Both of his younger brothers turned against him. They were brothers from the same mother. For the throne, even brothers can become rivals."

Emperor Yongzheng, whose brothers were vying for the throne: He understood this feeling!

"As the youngest son, Zhu Di doted on Zhu Gaosui. For example, around the tenth year of the Yongle reign, Zhu Di appointed a new chief secretary for the Prince of Zhao, saying: 'My son, the Prince of Zhao, is young...'"

Zhu Houzhao, who had brothers who died young: Was he really that doting?

"However, Gao Sui was already a thirty-year-old adult back then. Well, in his father's heart, his youngest son was still a child who hadn't grown up."

"Perhaps Empress Xu was the strict mother; whenever the youngest son misbehaved, he would always receive a lecture from his mother."

Everyone in the dynasty: How old are you? You're still a child in your parents' eyes!
