After hearing this, Empress Zhou did not speak immediately, but just waved her hand to let the eunuch palace maid withdraw.

Seeing this movement, Zhu Cilang felt a little chilling on his back and felt a little shivered in his heart. But there was no way. This was his mother, and even if he was the prince, it would be useless.

After a while, the palace maids and eunuchs withdrew. Queen Zhou walked closer to the prince, with a look of regret on her face, and said to Zhu Ciyang: "I heard the sound of the wind before, and finally couldn't help but come over and see. I really caught up with it. I handled national affairs and reviewed memorials. Is this your attitude?"

Zhu Cixuan lowered his head, silent, and looked as if he was scolded.

Seeing him like this, Empress Zhou couldn't help but get angry, pointing at him and saying, "You are the prince of the Ming Dynasty and will succeed to the throne to the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty in the future. Do you want to be a foolish monarch for being so perfunctory about political affairs? "

This is a bit heavy, but only Queen Zhou can say it. Others do not have the qualifications and courage to say it. For example, Cao Huachun, an eunuch with an old qualification, did not mention a single word.

Hearing such straightforward words, Zhu Cilang was stimulated and couldn't help but raise his head, with a little anger on his face, but looking at his mother's face that was so angry that he disappeared, and he just replied: "My son didn't think about being a fool!"

"Then tell me!" When Empress Zhou heard that he was still denying, she pointed at his forehead with her fingers, and said with anger: "Is it possible that my mother was blind just now? The memorials for major matters that your father required to be reviewed by you. How did you review them? Is there anyone who reviewed them like this?"

After hearing this, Zhu Cilang lowered his head and continued to stop talking.

"You said, what do you want?" Queen Zhou couldn't help but get even more angry when she saw him like this. Her voice became louder and she shouted, "Tell me! If you want to say something, you have to make sense, and I will ignore you again? You said, do you really want to be a fool?"

Facing Queen Zhou's aggressiveness, Zhu Cilang suddenly raised his head, with a little resoluteness on his face, no longer the intention of retreating, and replied with his neck straight: "My son just doesn't want to be Prince Yiwen!"

When he heard this, Empress Zhou felt like she was hit by a bolt from the blue and stayed there.

Prince Yiwen refers to Zhu Biao, the eldest son of the founding ancestor, who was the greatest achievement in his life, that he was the crown prince for his whole life and never became the emperor even if he died. Because Zhu Yuanzhang lived longer than his eldest son.

Nowadays, Emperor Chongzhen is wise and powerful. Many people have already said that the emperors are much more powerful than Taizu back then. Judging from the current situation, Emperor Chongzhen seems to be very strong and has gone to the Mughal Empire to fight wars.

Taizu and Prince Yiwen were 27 years apart at that time, while Emperor Chongzhen and Zhu Cilang are only 18 years apart at this time. When Taizu died of his son, it seems that the chance of Emperor Chongzhen was consuming his son was very high.

The reason why Empress Zhou was shocked was because her son did not want to be Prince Yiwen, that was to be the emperor, but if she wanted to be the emperor, either Emperor Chongzhen would become the emperor or Emperor Chongzhen would die. However, both situations are absolutely impossible at present. So, does his son want to kill his father?

When Empress Zhou thought of this idea, how could she be stunned without being shocked!

The news was too big. Queen Zhou didn't dare to be stunned for a while. She immediately came to her senses and looked around and then immediately turned black and shouted in a low voice: "You... you are so ruthless, you... you are looking for death, you..."

As she spoke, she was so scared that she was a little incoherent, which was really beyond her ability to accept.

However, when he heard her say this and saw her like this, Zhu Cixuan was stunned for a while, and then finally realized that he was shocked and a little anxious. He quickly said to Queen Zhou: "Mother, where do you want to go!"

The tone was full of blame.

"I... where can I think?" Queen Zhou was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and said a little angry, "You said yourself, how could you have such a thought? You are disloyal and unfilial..."

Zhu Cilang didn't dare to listen any longer, so he hurriedly called out, "Mother...Mother, you misunderstood your son!"

As he said this, he wanted to go forward and block his mother's mouth.

"Ah?" Queen Zhou was a little stunned when she heard this, and couldn't react a little, "I... I misunderstood you?"

"That's it!" Zhu Cilang nodded quickly and said, "What the son minister means is that he doesn't want to be like Prince Yiwen, and he will accomplish nothing in the end. In terms of this political matter, is the son minister powerful, or is the father powerful? Are these ministers arranged by the father powerful, or is the son minister powerful?"

"What does it mean?" Queen Zhou was a little confused by him and asked in wonder.

Zhu Cixuan didn't want to be misunderstood by Empress Zhou again. This matter was too big. If it was spread, he would not be able to bear it anyway. Therefore, he quickly explained: "In this political affairs, no matter how hard the son minister tried, he would never do anything. But did the father arrange things for him? These are all major events that benefit the country and the people and affect future generations! The son minister worked hard for this, not only did the steam engine invented, but it was used for people's livelihood everywhere. There were also steam-powered trains and steam warships, which were all busy. No matter who it was in the future, as long as he mentioned these, he would inevitably mention the son minister. Therefore, the son minister thought that instead of doing nothing in political affairs, it would be better to do more practical things. The son minister was this, and did the mother understand?"

Speaking of this, he took a deep breath and said heavily: "I just want to live a valuable life, but I want to do something that feels fulfilled!"

After hearing this, Empress Zhou finally understood what her son meant. It turned out that she had really misunderstood. After understanding this, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

However, no matter how clear she understands, she is still a little bit unrealistic when she is such a conservative person. She can't help but say, "But you are the prince!"

"Yes, my son is the crown prince!" Zhu Cilang said it, so it didn't matter. This relaxation made me think more clearly. He immediately said to Empress Zhou, "Precisely because my son is the crown prince, he has been busy with these things and doing these things, it will definitely have a very important impact on the atmosphere in the Ming Dynasty. It can guide my Ming people to work hard in these aspects. This is the greatest role of the prince."

Speaking of this, he took a deep breath, whispered in a very affirmative tone: "I believe that my father also means this, and I will be very happy to pounce on these aspects!"

"This..." Queen Zhou couldn't help but feel a little speechless when she heard this, because her intuition made her feel that her son was right.

"My son is very happy!" Seeing that she couldn't speak, Zhu Cilang said solemnly, "Because Mr. Chen also has a sense of accomplishment. If this continues, there will inevitably be a place for Mr. Chen in history books, and it is no longer just a crown prince!"

Is Zhu Cilang stupid? He is not stupid at all! I know that no matter how hard he works, he will never be as good as his father. Even if he really becomes the emperor, he will not be better than his father. In the future history books, he will definitely be silent under the light of his great father.

Therefore, when he discovers new opportunities and can do things that feel fulfilled, he will certainly enjoy it, and he will definitely not care about such things as reviewing memorials.

After Empress Zhou understood the whole thing, she finally nodded slowly and had to admit that her son's choice might be right.

"My son, I finally feel relieved!" Queen Zhou stretched out her hand, touched her son's face, and said with relief.

Although one is the queen and the other is the prince, in the final analysis, one is the mother and the other is the son.

Zhu Cixuan was very happy to hear this. He knew that his mother would not care about him any longer if he did anything in the future. So his heart flew to Tianjin again. It was a pity that without the data on the long-distance armored warship, he could only rely on this side to explore it again.

Queen Zhou put down her hand and was about to go back. However, after being impacted by his son's words, she had some thoughts and couldn't help but mutter to herself: "What should I do?"

If she could leave her name in history, who wouldn’t think? Queen Zhou thought too! Now that her son has found her own bright road, she doesn’t know how to do it?

She has always adhered to the queen's way and governed the harem according to tradition. Not to mention that she is very outstanding, at least she is worthy of the position of the queen.

However, now that she is influenced by her son's words, if possible, she also wants to leave her name in history and be one of the best queens in history!

However, she really has no clue about how to leave a name in history.

Hearing the words she talked to herself, Zhu Cilang couldn't help but say, "My mother, that's not simple, just do it according to the father's wishes!"

"Ah?" Queen Zhou was a little surprised when she heard this. She couldn't remember it for a moment and asked, "What did your father say?"

When Zhu Cilang heard his mother ask for advice from him, he became energetic and became a little angry. He immediately pointed out: "Didn't the mother notice? The father has already asked more and more women to do things. Even the mother herself is in charge of a textile factory? The son-in-law, who sees the father's intention, should be that all the women in our Ming Dynasty can do a job, not just take care of their husbands and children at home. Where do you think..."
