Liang Changmao seemed very satisfied with Che Mingde's appearance. It was really because this kid was too smart, and it was difficult for him to surprise him.

"Can Grandpa Liang explain in detail?" Che Mingde seemed to be interested and took the initiative to pour wine again.

Liang Changmao smiled and said, "You kid, you are interested in these secrets. I will tell you directly. In fact, the most important thing is that the prince is too unkind, or too bloody. After His Majesty inherited the throne, several brothers were stripped of their power and became idle princes. Even if they competed with him for the most intense battle with him, they were only restricted to the capital and did not harm him. Until a few years ago, King Fu died of illness, but something really made love worry. Prince Fu once asked my Majesty and said that King Fu did not die of illness, but was killed by some kind of curse. Your Majesty was also very surprised. After all, Your Majesty really wanted to kill King Fu, why should he keep him in the capital for so many years? When King Fu is now impossible to threaten him."

"Did it be that the prince did it after investigation?" Che Mingde asked.

"I'm not sure, but no matter the motivation or some clues, they all pointed at him." Liang Changmao sighed.

"That's why Your Majesty is worried." Che Mingde seemed to understand a little.

Liang Changmao shook his head and said, "The prince does not leave any room for his work. He is too cruel. Do you know what the prince has proposed for the Ming Dynasty?"

"What?" Che Mingde asked.

"Those who were willing to migrate in the Ming Dynasty stayed behind the Changhua River for three generations and followed not far away, they all killed them to eliminate future troubles." Liang Changmao said in horror.

Che Mingde was also a little scared when he heard this. In the past few years, although there have been many people migrating from the Ming Kingdom, many of them remained near the original capital of the Ming Kingdom. It was not until two years ago that they designated the Northern Xinjiang Prefecture for management, and then they were completely cleaned up into an unmanned land. If the prince followed the prince's approach, there were at least 500,000 or 600,000 people around the Ming Kingdom's old capital, and the people scattered in other places would be close to one million. According to the prince's words, killing so many people would probably only cause unstable northern Xinjiang.

"Your Majesty really has the intention to change the prince?" Even so, Che Mingde still couldn't believe it. After all, the prince has been established for so many years, and changing the prince is about to shake the foundation.

Liang Changmao also smiled bitterly and said, "I have thoughts, but I didn't make a decision. Mingde, I might as well tell you that I really plan to stand on the side of Your Highness Ninth."

"Grandpa Liang, are you?" Che Mingde was a little surprised.

Liang Changmao drank the glass of wine in one sip and said with a wry smile: "Mingde, you are the best among the peers I have ever met, but if you are excluded, if you want to say who is the best among this generation, I will not have a second choice except Your Highness Ninth."

"Oh!" Che Mingde didn't expect that the other party's evaluation of the Ninth Prince was so high.

Liang Changmao looked at Che Mingde in surprise again and smiled: "Do you know, what did he say to me after I became his teacher?"

"What?" Che Mingde asked.

"He said he was the one who brought him out to check and balance the prince, so he didn't want to implicate me. If I wanted to protect myself, he could be self-deprecating." Liang Changmao said with a meaningful smile.

Hearing this, Che Mingde was also shocked. Looking at Liang Changmao, he understood why this old man in the officialdom would wholeheartedly support the Ninth Prince. I am afraid that if it were him, someone would have supported him with all his heart.

Liang Changmao poured himself wine and said earnestly: "Mingde, I grew up in Jingguo. Since I was a child, I heard my grandfather talk about the troubled times after the Great Prosperity was destroyed. I studied poetry and books hard for so many years. I want the world to be unified and the people live and work in peace. As for the reputation of being kept in history or being infamous for thousands of years, I don't care."

Seeing Liang Changmao say such words while drinking, Che Mingde also became silent.

Liang Changmao didn't say anything else, but instead took the initiative to pour wine for Che Mingde, and then poured it on his own.

After a long time, Che Mingde suddenly stood up cautiously and bowed to Liang Changmao and asked, "Grandpa Liang, what do you think is the way of heaven?"

"Hmm? Why do you ask me this?" Liang Changmao asked.

"My teacher told me about the truth of heaven, and I have been thinking about it. In recent years, I have had some of my own ideas."

"What's your thought?" Liang Changmao asked.

"I think about it and hear what Grandpa Liang thinks." Che Mingdedao.

"Actually, you already know that the way I call peace in the world, but you and I are all part of the world, and health in the world is the way of heaven. Of course, I am different from you. In addition to the way of heaven, I also believe in the way of humanity, the way of emperors, kings and ministers, and the way of governing the family. Of course, it can be said that these are part of the way of heaven." Liang Changmao said.

Che Mingde also nodded silently and said, "I used to think that the teacher was pursuing the way of heaven, but over the years, I have found that many people have their own way, but I have not found it yet."

"Do you desire anything?" Liang Changmao asked.

"I used to hope to travel around the world and be free and easy as my teacher, but since I was in the North for the years, I have indeed had some ideas." Che Mingdedao.

"What's your thought?" Liang Changmao asked.

"I was thinking that the way of heaven may not be just one direction, but many people just haven't thought about it. Grandpa Liang, you may also be pursuing the way of heaven." Che Mingde said.

"Your idea is the same as everyone's own way." Liang Changmao asked guessingly.

"Maybe, I haven't figured it out yet." Che Mingde shook his head and said.

"You are still young after all. What are your plans after this palace examination?" Liang Changmao asked.

"I don't know that many things have not been considered, and I'm even a little scared." Che Mingde sighed.

"Afraid of becoming an official?" Liang Changmao asked.

"I'm afraid of being too restricted." Che Mingde said seriously.

"That's right? Mingde, do you want to meet the ninth prince?" Liang Changmao suddenly asked.

"He is two years younger than me, right?" Che Mingde asked.

"No, do you want to meet?" Liang Changmao asked again.

Che Mingde knew that if he went to see him, it would be difficult to get rid of the relationship, although he was the same now.

Seeing that Che Mingde was silent, Liang Changmao sighed and said, "I won't force you if you don't go."

"I'm not afraid." Che Mingde gave a different answer.

"Haha... you kid." Liang Changmao laughed loudly after hearing this.

Che Mingde said bitterly: "Is it necessary to laugh at me?"

"Actually, you know that you don't belong to the Xuanmen, but you can't let go of Xiaosha, so you become hesitant." Liang Changmao said with a smile.

Che Mingde was also stunned. After a long time, he suddenly laughed and said: Yes, I can't let it go. I have the Che family and my father's expectations. I have always had some extravagant hopes. I should actually put it down and take on the burden on my shoulders."

"Did you figure it out?" Liang Changmao asked with a smile.
