Everything was decided the moment he was born; after all, he was the emperor's eldest son, and that was his advantage. So, many things were essentially decided the moment he was born.
Zhu Yunying felt it was only natural to let little Zhu get to know some martial arts, as it was for little Zhu's future development.
The so-called military merits were not merely about resting on their laurels; they also had to uphold imperial power, which was their duty and responsibility. In some cases, the interests of these military merits were actually quite aligned with those of the imperial power.
It's feasible to let Little Zhu come into contact with some military officers, especially since the officers he comes into contact with are all "unreputable." Many of them might only be given important positions after Little Zhu ascends the throne.
Zhu Yunying naturally didn't need to consider the evaluation of military merit children, although those were things he valued relatively. However, he couldn't immediately focus on the training of military merit children; what he needed were military merit children who were already capable of being put to use.
For example, Li Jinglong, this Duke of Cao, is still very useful. "Cousin Jiujiang, we've heard that some of the arrogant and fierce generals in the martial arts academy are getting restless. Is that true?"
Li Jinglong naturally dared not be careless. Although his father was the Hongwu Emperor's nephew and he was the Ying Shi Emperor's cousin, Li Jinglong was well aware that he was not merely a member of the imperial family, but also a subject of the emperor. His duty was to uphold imperial power. Giving him military power and control over the military corps were all part of the emperor's ruling strategy.
The Martial Arts Academy holds a special position, a fact that is widely acknowledged. However, in such a prestigious place, setting aside the loyalty of some military officers and high-ranking generals to the Emperor, it's safe to say that, unbeknownst to many, there are undoubtedly some secret police or secret agents operating there.
Li Jinglong immediately spoke solemnly, “Your Majesty, the sons of military officers are mostly from wealthy families, relying on the merits of their fathers and grandfathers, and many of them are arrogant. Those who enter the Martial Academy to train as generals are mostly those who have been through the trials of battle, with hearts of iron and stone.”
The position of Crown Prince Zhu Xiaozhu is secure, and this carefree prince has no need to worry about vying for the throne. He doesn't need to consider competing with his brothers, cultivating his own power in the court, or winning the emperor's favor.
