In the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Jinghong was still being taught a lesson by the emperor.
Although the words didn’t sound good, they sounded like nature to his ears. After all, the most difficult level had been passed.
After talking for a while, Zhu Xianming got tired, so he just told Zhu Jinghong to get out.
But when the latter relaxed and was about to go out after saluting, Zhu Xianming stopped him again.
"Dad, do you have any other instructions?" Zhu Jinghong turned around and asked with his waist raised.
Zhu Xianming smiled and asked calmly: "Just now you said there was no selfishness, so what is the purpose of sending Sun Shaozu to serve in North Korea?"
Hearing this, Zhu Jing's His brain was suddenly overloaded, and he thought of many things for a while.
It can be said that this is a stress test given by the emperor. How to deal with it properly in a short period of time will greatly affect his final assessment.
"Dad... do you want to listen to the truth?"
"Is it possible that you still listen to lies!"
"Then North Korea Li Hui said that he is willing to In addition to the amount of gold donated before, an additional ten to two hundred thousand silver will be contributed every year. Sun Shaozu is a prudent and careful person, so it is appropriate for him to supervise Li Hui."
After saying this, Zhu Jinghong added another explanation! Said: "Don't worry, these are still the same as before. We will give you 30 to 70 points!"
In the past two years, Li Hui has indeed given five to six thousand taels of gold every year as agreed before. And the bulk was sent into the inner treasury.
This time, Zhu Jinghong originally planned to keep the two hundred thousand taels of silver for himself, but now that he was asked, he had to cut his flesh.
"If I don't ask about this matter, when are you going to report it?"
Zhu Jinghong looked helpless and replied: "My son thinks you already know, could it be that Li Hui Didn't you file a complaint?"
Placing the responsibility on Li Hui makes Zhu Jinghong feel no guilt. After all, this guy does owe him a lot of favors.
But if Li Hui knew about this, he would definitely feel very unbalanced. He donated more than 200,000 silver every year, could he still not fulfill his kindness to Zhu Jinghong?
Zhu Xianming smiled. Although Lao Shisan was not honest, it made him feel more at ease.
"Go away!"
"Yes!"
"In the next few months, you can study and cultivate your character in the house, don't make trouble for me anymore !"
"My son understands!"
This time, Zhu Jinghong really exited the hall, and he didn't really relax until he walked out of the Qianqing Gate.
In the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Xianming leaned on the back of his chair, looked at Cheng Ying and asked: "Is this kid too bold? He just talked to me like that!"
Cheng Ying hooked her waist and said with a smile: "It's because of Your Majesty's generosity that Your Highness, Prince Xiang, is more relaxed!"
Cheng Ying is very good at flattering people.
But just after he finished speaking, he heard Zhu Xianming ask again: "You were present the whole time just now..."
Zhu Xianming stroked his beard and asked with a half-smile: "You said How much does he say?How true or false? Which ones are true...and which ones are false? ”
In the meeting in the Qianqing Palace just now, everyone else was kicked out. Cheng Ying was the only one waiting on the scene, so Zhu Xianming could only ask him questions.
Accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger, not only It means that there is danger in the emperor showing off his power, and there is also great danger in hearing and seeing things around the emperor.
After following the emperor for a long time, Cheng Ying has experienced countless dangers and has developed the skills. A strong heart.
Whether it is true or false, which ones are true and which ones are false... these questions are not things that he can evaluate.
Even if he can guess the emperor's mind, it is not possible at this time. He must not show off. Once the things that should not be exposed are pointed out, he will die.
Kneeling on the ground, Cheng Ying kowtowed and said: "Your Majesty, the old slave just lost his mind. There is really no way. Remember what His Highness King Xiang said, so I don’t know what is true or false! "
Hearing this, Zhu Xianming's smile became warm and he scolded: "Old guy... you are getting slippery! "
After saying that, Zhu Xianming did not delve into it any further, but stood up and walked towards the inner room.
"If you are not stupid, you are not deaf, you are not a family man..." Zhu Xianming murmured in a low voice.
For him, truth or falsehood is not important. What is important is that he has determined two things.
One is that he has straightened out his mind, and the other is that he must ensure that he has control. Absolute power.
The former is for long-term considerations, and the latter is to provide protection for the present.
Walking to one side of the hall, there is a quiet room at the back, where he usually stays. Thinking about the problem here.
No one is disturbing here. When Zhu Xianming was thinking about how to clean up the situation, Lu Tong, the chief eunuch, came outside the palace.
As the first eunuch, Lu Tong, who is known as the "Inner Prime Minister", has high access rights in the Qianqing Palace and can directly come to Zhu Xianming.
After Lu Tong knocked on the door, he was able to enter the room.
“Your Majesty, this is a new memorial! "
"Is it impeachment of Thirteenth and Fourteenth again? "
I have received too many such memorials these days, so Zhu Xianming made such a judgment.
At this time Lu Tong replied: "Your Majesty, this memorial is ...It was submitted by Wang Pei'an, the chief historian of Prince Xiang's Palace! "
Zhu Xianming basically didn't know how to read the impeachment memorial, but when he heard that it was handed over by Wang Pei'an, he became interested in reading it.
"Bring it over! "
Lu Tong hurriedly handed over the memorial and said at the same time: "Your Majesty, Wang Pei'an is submitting this memorial... to defend His Royal Highness Prince Xiang! ”
Wang Pei’an is recognized by the world as a clear stream, and a clear stream among the clear streams.
He wrote a memorial to defend Zhu Jinghong, which naturally attracted great attention, and it will inevitably attract The conflict from top to bottom of the court.
He had done everything to investigate the case, and now he was doing the same to assert justice. This made Zhu Xianming once again convinced of his character.
Looking at the memorial, Zhu Xianming's thoughts were outside the memorial.
Wang Pei'an is a rare loyal and upright minister. He should be a sharp sword to clarify the officialdom and should not be lost in meaningless political struggles.
"Keep this memorial in your memory!" Zhu Xianming said this after reading it.
Although Lu Tong was puzzled, he still nodded in agreement.
"You said...who is causing trouble this time?"
Faced with the emperor's question, Lu Tong frowned and thought deeply, and did not answer in a hurry.
He had actually thought deeply about this issue and knew that it involved two direct princes, so the old eunuch wanted to pretend to be confused.
"Your Majesty, there must be a traitor who is trying to disrupt the imperial court!"
This is nonsense. Zhu Xianming knew the old eunuch's difficulties and had no intention of forcing him to answer. idea.
"Go down!"
"Yes!"
The emperor here began to deal with government affairs, while Zhu Jinghong, who walked out of the palace on the other end, felt a pang in his heart. Afraid.
Because he had realized that there were actually many loopholes in his performance during the audience, but the emperor turned a blind eye.
But after all, the relationship between father and son has been restored, what does this mean...
Although that may really exist, Zhu Jinghong only thought about it for a moment, and he still felt that it was too outrageous.
It is now the 14th year of Orthodoxy, and it has only been four years since he traveled back in time. How could he touch that level... Zhu Jinghong couldn't believe it.
Siting on the sedan chair, Zhu Jinghong left the palace.
There were countless eyes staring at him inside and outside the palace walls, many of them with malicious intentions.
Driving all the way back to the palace, the sun had already set to the west.
Baochai personally brought him into the house, and Zhu Jinghong came back earlier than she expected.
The two entered Yin'an Gate, dismissed the accompanying maids and eunuchs, and strolled alone in the courtyard.
"How do you say it?" Baochai couldn't help but ask.
Slowly walking forward with his hands behind his back, Zhu Jinghong said with a smile: "Passed!"
"Does the old man believe you?" Baochai asked.
"It should be so!" Zhu Jinghong didn't say too much.
"It's just..."
Hearing his changing tone, Baochai immediately asked: "Just what?"
Sighing, Zhu Jinghong Said: "It's just that the loss is not small!"
"Have you been fined again? Or reduced your title? Or... deposed your old friend again?"
Baochai The guess is that the relationship is progressive, one is more serious than the other.
Zhu Jinghong sighed, and then said: "North Korea's two hundred thousand taels of silver have nothing to do with us!"
"Ah..."
Upon hearing this, Baochai's beauty suddenly turned pale, which shows how heartbroken it was for her to lose this large sum of money.
"Why...why is it gone?" Baochai asked.
Although Prince Xiang’s Mansion has a lot of normal income, it currently has a lot of expenses in various aspects. North Korea’s annual income of more than ten or two hundred thousand taels is very important to the operation of the Prince’s Mansion.
"When the old man asked me, how could I keep it secret?" Zhu Jinghong said angrily.
Baochai was very depressed at this time. How to maintain the operation of all aspects of the palace became a headache for her.
Just listen to her complain: "Of course I have to say it, but it's the money you earned, how can you say it's gone and it's gone!"
Stop and Zhu Jinghong turned around He turned around, looked at the chattering Baochai, and said with dissatisfaction: "Did I tell the old man that the money was Li Hui's bribe to help him seize the throne?"
"Say no more. , It’s just a few pieces of silver, is it worth being so obsessed with me?”
Baochai couldn’t refute the previous sentence, but after hearing Zhu Jinghong’s flirtatious last sentence, Baochai really couldn’t bear it.
I just heard her sneer and say: "You said it lightly. Favorites, weddings and funerals, annual rewards, and you singing and dancing every day, which one should not be spent money on?"
< p>"You only care about having fun and don't care about the big and small affairs of the house. Do you think that the money in the house is not enough to spend?"As a result, the couple began to quarrel and went around the house. There was a lot of fighting in the inner house, but in the end Zhu Jinghong was defeated.
The quarrel between them actually means that the "foreign trouble" has been resolved, otherwise they would not have the intention to quarrel.
In fact, bickering itself is also the fun between couples.
At night, after Zhu Jinghong and the girls had dinner, they did not stay in Yin'an Hall to rest, but went to the courtyard where Ke Qing was.
But now that Qing is pregnant with a child, Zhu Jinghong needs to pay more attention to her, so he comes here to talk to her.
As for going to bed tonight, Zhu Jinghong didn't need to worry at all. Qiqige and Nuomin, who were both in the hospital, were already waiting eagerly.
The four people talked together, but the three women had different thoughts.
Not to mention Nuo Min and Qi Qiqi, what you want to do at this time is to keep Zhu Jinghong.
The night was long, but Qing felt insecure and wanted to be with Zhu Jinghong.
While these three people were keeping their own agenda, another uninvited guest came to the courtyard, it was the concubine Yang Jingting.
"Yo yo yo...it's still lively here, it seems I've come at the right time!"
Yang Jingting came quietly, so she didn't let anyone know about her sudden visit. Ke Qing and the other three quickly stood up and saluted her, the "second in command" of the house.
Although they all looked submissive, all the girls were disgusted with her arrival.
When Yang Jingting entered the room, she wanted to salute Zhu Jinghong, and then took the opportunity to sit closest to him, forcing Qi Qige to go farther away.
"Your Majesty, my dear sister is pregnant now. She should have a good rest. If you come here so late...you are not afraid of disturbing others!"
What is Yang Jingting's plan for saying this?, the three women present were very knowledgeable.
They didn’t expect that it would be too impolite for this person to grab someone as soon as he arrived.
Of course, Zhu Jinghong cannot see the intrigue between these women so clearly if he cannot put himself in their shoes.
"It's indeed a bit late!" Zhu Jinghong responded.
"Your Majesty, it's just a chat, it's okay!" Ke Qing explained.
Then Nuo Min said: "It's rare for Your Majesty to come here, so please stay a little longer tonight!"
"Speaking of which, Your Majesty has not been with us for more than ten days. Jiangyunzhai is staying for the night!”
The last sentence Qi Qige said can be said to be extremely straightforward, and his intention is quite obvious.
"That's the truth!" Zhu Jinghong replied.
Unexpectedly, Yang Jingting said with a smile: "I said to you two sisters, the prince has a lot of things to do, so you should be more considerate!"
It seemed like a joke, but in fact But it was a conspiracy, and Zhu Jinghong also heard it at this moment.
His initial idea was to stay overnight in Jiangyunzhai and discuss life with Nuomin and Qiqige.
So Zhu Jinghong looked at Yang Jingting and asked: "Girl Ting, you came here so late, are you busy?"
Yang Jingting replied: "I heard that the prince was here and joking with the sisters, I’m here to join in the fun!”
“It’s getting late. If you have nothing to do, just go back and rest early!”
Zhu Jinghong didn’t have so many language skills. The meaning is very clear, that is, let Yang Jingting leave quickly and not join in the fun here.
In order to save some face, Yang Jingting looked outside through the window and said with a smile: "Unknowingly, the night has grown late. What the prince said is very true... I should go back too!"
p>
Yang Jingting had no choice but to stand up before her butt felt warm, said goodbye to everyone and left.
There are many women in Prince Xiang's palace, and there are many internal intrigues, but Zhu Jinghong ignored most of them.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye, and the debate in the court was still fierce.
On March 22nd of the 14th year of Zhengtong, the Zongren Mansion concluded the "trial" and announced that Zhu Jingting died of a vicious disease and had nothing to do with Qingyang King Zhu Jingchun.
Of course this aroused widespread opposition, but the emperor ignored it at all and instead asked the prince and Prince Rui to suppress it.
Royal face and clan harmony need to be maintained, and both the prince and Prince Rui are willing to perform for this.
But they didn't know that the emperor wanted to know who caused trouble and who would settle it. He believed that the prince and Prince Rui colluded to put Zhu Jinghong to death.
Since the incident was caused by the two of them, it was natural for the emperor to let them deal with it.
If the errand is done well, there will be no prizes, but if the errand is not done well, you will be punished!
Controversy between the government and the public is raging, and it is not easy to suppress the matter. This will test the prince and his family.King Rui’s method.
Another two days passed, and before the situation completely calmed down, Zhu Jinghong received Wang Pei'an's farewell.
In Yin'an Hall, Zhu Jinghong was holding a pen and looking at the teacher in front of him in surprise.
"Going now?"
"Yes!"
"Where to go?"
"Northwest, southeast, Liaodong , Annan...it's all okay!" Wang Pei'an replied calmly.
Putting down the pen in his hand, Zhu Jinghong stood up and asked, "Why do you suddenly want to leave? Could it be that I didn't entertain you well?"
"Your Highness treats his ministers very well!" Wang Peian said calmly replied.
Prince Xiang’s Mansion was indeed very kind to him and his family. Although Wang Pei’an was an upright man, he was also grateful for Zhu Jinghong’s kindness.
"Since everything is fine, why did Mr. suddenly leave?" Zhu Jinghong was still puzzled.
Wang Pei'an was silent for a while, but still said calmly: "Just because His Highness has passed the crisis, I can set off with peace of mind... Naturally, there is no need to stay in the palace!"
