Historically, Zhu Gaochi was not as cowardly and incompetent as he seemed. Do you know how smart he was?

Zhu Gaochi promoted the development of Ming Dynasty to a certain extent.

"The Ming Dynasty" is a hit, and Zhu Di's three sons are also interesting. The succession of legitimate sons during the Yongle period was no less than that during the Kangxi period. Zhu Gaochi was the prince, who acted cowardly and incompetent. He was bullied by his younger brother. In front of Zhu Di, he couldn't even speak clearly and felt very aggrieved. He always relied on Zhu Zhanji to rescue him. Zhu Zhanji somewhat despised Zhu Gaochi.

Zhu Gaochi was fat and needed help when walking. In front of Zhu Di, Zhu Gaochi showed cowardice and incompetence. Zhu Di personally led the expedition and Zhu Gaochi guarded him. When Zhu Di came back, he wanted to see Zhu Gaochi's memorial. Zhu Gaochi cried. The fat Zhu Gaochi stood there. After being unable to get up, his son helped him up and carried him back to the house; Zhu Gaochi had great military exploits, which made Zhu Gaochi weak, and the audience complained, how could Zhu Di choose Zhu Gaochi as his successor. In addition to Zhu Gaochi, there are also Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui? In fact, this is a misunderstanding. Zhu Gaochi is not cowardly and incompetent, but a man full of wisdom.

He asked Zhu Gaochi to review the memorial, and Zhu Gaochi divided the memorial into categories and answered it. Zhu Yuanzhang was satisfied and showed his talent. Appreciated.

The minister also likes Zhu Gaochi. Zhu Gaochi is elegant and people who obey the minister's opinions are more popular among civil servants than those who insist on their own opinions.

Under Zhu Di's high pressure, civil servants had hope. Zhu Gaochi was a man of opinion and talent.

Zhu Di did not like Zhu Gaochi, but he did not want to remove the crown prince's position. The crown prince was appointed by Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Gaosui and Zhu Gaoxu were greedy, but they were not princes.
