Children of Emperor Wei Zi.

In order to prevent brothers and sisters from killing each other for the throne, Queen Xu decided the future path for her three sons at an early age. Actually, Queen Xu is a smart person. She knew that even half-brothers would kill each other for the throne.

Therefore, in order to avoid this, after observing the personality characteristics of her three sons, Queen Xu made plans for their future lives. Although her eldest son, Zhu Gaochi, is frail and sickly, he is very gentle and very suitable for any army.

Her second son Zhu and her third son are both grumpy people. Such people can easily become tyrants when they become kings. But I like his second son Zhu very much. I think this child is very similar to myself, so I want to make Zhu a prince.

But Queen Xu thought that Zhu could not be a good king, so she persuaded Zhu that he was not fit to be king. Moreover, we should not give the second son too much power, but also choose a subordinate for him who dares to dissuade him. Because of the efforts of Queen Xu, she gave up the idea of making Zhu a prince.

In fact, Queen Xu did it for her three children. After all, they are all her own flesh and blood, and she must love them all. The reason why he didn't choose his second son was that he was arrogant. If he were the king, he might not be able to control his brother.

However, if Zhu Gaochi were a king, he would be able to accommodate his brothers so that they wouldn't kill each other because of his gentle personality. In addition, Zhu Gaochi, because of his gentle personality, was able to listen to the suggestions of courtiers and think for the people all over the world. Later, under the guidance of Queen Xu, he also grew up to be the wise king his mother hoped for.
