Zhu Yiliu thought about it and asked back, "Have you ever thought that I will inherit the throne?"

Feng Bao was stunned.

However, he was not unprepared. He knew that this question was too sensitive and did not dare to answer it easily as Zhu Yili and King Lu.

But since you have agreed in advance that you should open your heart and communicate with sincerity, then of course you must have sincerity.

Feng Bao said carefully: "Prince Lu, I have a request. If you want tonight, you can only know you and I. OK?"

"Can a partner do it?" Zhu Yili asked with a smile, then promised, "I'm fine."

"I can swear to God. But I have another request. No matter what I say next, please don't scold Prince Lu, and you must remain calm."

"Tell me, companion." Zhu Yili replied in his mouth, thinking to himself. In fact, if you don't say it, I know what companion you think.

"I'm not hiding it to Prince Lu, I have indeed thought that you will inherit the throne..."

"Damn! I'm so brave with you. Don't you know if this means that rebellion will lead to be beheaded?" Zhu Yili made a "click" action, but his voice was very light.

"I just think about it." Feng Bao hurriedly explained, "Besides, I am not just a fantasy person. The Empress has thought about it, otherwise she would not have almost destroyed the Lord Long Live, and wanted Prince Lu to replace him."

Zhu Yili knew that this was a fact and a historical fact. But he still said seriously: "Parent, my mother thinks, can it be the same as you or any of us? My mother thinks, that is called presiding over justice and thinking about the people of the world; if you or any of us thinks, that is called ill-intentioned, which is equivalent to seeking death. Do you understand? Parent, please put away this idea. But I would like to thank you for being so honest tonight."

Feng Bao was a little disappointed: "We agreed in advance that we should be honest! I believe that Prince Lu had actually seen my servant's thoughts for a long time, but he just didn't speak frankly."

Zhu Yili said meaningfully: "No matter what, for now, the emperor is still a good brother, and my younger brother should serve him. This will make my mother feel at ease and the ministers in the court feel at ease. What should I do with you?"

Feng Bao said keenly: "Does Prince Lu value being a good brother or a good emperor more?"

"Of course, I value being a good emperor more." Zhu Yili blurted out and then explained, "Because only by being a good emperor can one be a good brother, if you are just a good brother, it will definitely harm the interests of many other people. In the end, you may not be a real good brother."

"Your Majesty Lu is right!" At this moment, a ray of light flashed in Feng Bao's eyes, but it was still difficult to hide the loss in his heart.

"Parent, don't ask this question again in the future. Please remember: the emperor is both a good brother and a good emperor at present. Otherwise, why should I, King Lu, be proud and not afraid? Otherwise, how can the reforms of the partner and Mr. Zhang achieve great success smoothly?"

Feng Bao nodded. This was the first time he felt convinced in front of Zhu Yiliu. He couldn't help but sigh: "Prince Lu is more generous than me!"

However, with his years of political awareness, he seemed to be able to hear a little implicit, especially grasping the word "current" in Zhu Yili's words.

So, after sighing, Feng Bao then asked keenly and cautiously: "But Prince Lu, right now, what if it is not in the future?"

I have to admire Feng Bao's insight and comprehension. No wonder Empress Dowager Li and Zhang Juzheng were both afraid of him.

Zhu Yiliu was also quite impressed.

Although Feng Bao's question was simple, the amount of information was extremely large, which was equivalent to accurately grasping the essence of what he said just now.

First of all, Feng Bao asked this, which shows that he had a considerable understanding of Emperor Wanli, otherwise he would not have asked that;

Secondly, it shows that Feng Bao at least expressed doubts about whether Emperor Wanli would become a good brother and a good emperor in the future;

Furthermore, it means that Feng Bao still has fantasies about him, King Lu. The implication is: Emperor Wanli is good at the moment, but what if it is not good in the future? Will Prince Lu replace him?

I have to say that Feng Bao’s question is bold and meticulous, and Zhu Yili sincerely admires it.

In fact, as soon as he came to this world, he thought about being behind the scenes to assist Brother Wanli in leading the Ming Dynasty to the top.

But the premise is that Brother Wanli must be obedient, otherwise, no matter how many grand plans he has, his embarrassing identity as King Lu, will be useless. It will only make the Chinese civil servants and generals in the court want to kill them quickly and accelerate his depression.

But if Brother Wanli is disobedient, it would be a different matter.

This is his true heart.

However, who knows what Brother Wanli will think in the future?

Brother Wanli has not taken charge yet and obeys Empress Dowager Li. Even if he has any thoughts in his heart, he still hides them. He still can't see any abnormal behavior for the time being.

Brother Wanli is so kind and forbearance, and he gloriously inherited the mantra of his teacher Zhang Juzheng.

Zhang Juzheng is an extremely kind and tolerant person.

This is also what he never expected in history that the students he trained worked hard to death, but in the end they were forced to counterattack and liquidation.

Emperor Wanli, an excellent student in Zhang Juzheng's eyes, successfully deceived the teacher with the ruthless technique he learned from his teacher.

Now, with Zhu Yili's participation, history has quietly changed, so Zhu Yili was not sure whether Brother Wanli would continue to endure it.

Even if Zhang Juzheng has surgery, he will eventually die. Will Brother Wanli turn against him?

Zhu Yiliu needs to wait, it takes time...

But during this period, he must ensure his personal safety.

So don’t think about the Grand Duke for the time being. The current emperor is Mr. Wanli, so he must go to another place to take vassals. This is the main tone.

So when facing Feng Bao's bold and meticulous problem, Zhu Yiliu adopted a strategy of downplaying. He just smiled slightly and replied, "Company, let's talk about the future, why do you have to think so far?"

Feng Bao is a smart person. He knows that Zhu Yili didn't say anything about this, but it would be meaningless if he continues to ask questions.

After all, Zhu Yiliu has already made it clear: Emperor Wanli is now a good brother and a good emperor, so Prince Lu must go to another place to take vassals. As for Emperor Wanli in the future, if it is not good, it will be a different matter.

Isn't that what it means?

If you ask again, you will be stupid.

Moreover, I believe this question will not be asked again in the future, and it will end here.

Although Feng Bao did not get the answer he wanted, he finally thought that he had understood Zhu Yili's heart. At least in this regard: Zhu Yili has no desire to covet the great power for the time being.

Then this trip was not in vain.

Feng Bao sincerely said: "Thank you, Prince Lu, for being so honest with me tonight!"

Zhu Yili smiled and said, "When you watch me grow up, you have to be honest and honest, how can I be perfunctory to you? Isn't it?"

Feng Bao sighed and said with emotion: "It's just a pity that Prince Lu's great talent and super ability to predict the future!"

Zhu Yili smiled again: "Has my partner changed his impression of me? In your eyes, am I not an arrogant and domineering person?"

"Everyone will change." Feng Bao said in a secret manner, "And, I have a vague feeling that Prince Lu wants to create a very bad impression on outsiders, so that you can better implement your plan."

"Damn! I've been thinking too much, and I feel like a scheming man who is scheming."

Feng Bao smiled strangely: "Isn't it?"

Zhu Yili waved his hand and replied, "It doesn't matter, you say yes! Anyway, from tonight, we will be grasshoppers tied to a rope. Haha, my partner actually encouraged me to make bad plans, I remember it! Haha..."

Feng Bao changed color in shock: "..."

I wanted to defend myself but didn't know how to speak, but I just stared at Zhu Yili in a daze.

"Look at you, don't be afraid of your companion. Didn't you agree that if you know tonight, only heaven and earth know you know me? Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."

Feng Bao immediately smiled: "Prince Lu said it well. From tonight, we will be grasshoppers tied to a rope."
