“…… Several little princes and princes arrived early......"

"The Shuntianfu experience Pang Shiyan is gone......"

"Several major wealthy gentry and businessmen in Wuqing County arrived together this morning......"

“…… In Beijing, in addition to the sons and nephews of several princes, there are also some merchants in Beijing. ”

"The prince of Wei has returned from Jiangnan and brought back dozens of weavers......

"The two uncles on Niangniang's side are also back......"

In the Qianqing Palace, Emperor Hongzhi reclined lazily in the dragon chair, his eyes seemed to be closed, as if he was asleep. Below, the old eunuch Du Fu held a piece of paper in his hand, read it softly, and glanced up at the emperor above from time to time.

After a long time, Emperor Hongzhi suddenly raised his hand, opened his eyes, and said, "Is there a minister in the court? Doesn't it mean that in addition to opening today, what kind of club is he going to hold a meeting?"

Du Fu's eyes quickly glanced at the secret report in his hand, nodded and said, "Yes, it should be the first meeting of the shareholders of Northern Commerce, well, it's this name." As for the ministers of the court...... Oh, Fu Han, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and Zhang Cai, the head of the Ministry of Officials, ......"

Thinking of this, Du Fu couldn't help but pause and let out a startled sound.

Emperor Hongzhi raised his eyes to look at him and said indifferently, "What's the matter?"

Du Fu bent down and said with a smile: "Back to Your Majesty, this matter is a little strange. These two ...... Well, I don't think I heard anything about having anything to do with Toshiro on weekdays. They're not the shareholders either, so why would they go? And, hey, Your Majesty, you may not have imagined it, but one of them went too. The prince's attendant, Zuo Chunfang, Zuo Zhongyun, Yang Ting, and the adults also went, and they still brought a person who was said to be a friend. ”

Emperor Hongzhi snorted and slowly sat up. Du Fu hurriedly stepped forward, put the secret report on the case, stretched out his hand to help Emperor Hongzhi sit down, and took a porcelain cup from the table and handed it over.

Emperor Hongzhi took it, opened the lid of the bowl and took a sip gently, and then he didn't put it down, letting the heat in the bowl linger, and said indifferently: "You old thing, you have also come to talk to me." What has never been interacted with, it is clearly the opposite. It's just that one is not dealing with him Su Mo, and the other is fighting with his Taishan Laozi. Hmm, it's Yang Tinghe ......"

Speaking of this, Emperor Hongzhi paused, and his face became thoughtful.

Du Fu laughed with him, and bowed his waist again, but he didn't answer. He didn't know the dirt between Fu Han and Cheng Minzheng, Zhang Cai and Su Mo? No, of course he knew. It's just that sometimes, it doesn't hurt to be stupid as a subordinate, even if it will be seen by the master. At this moment, it is much better to please the emperor with a smile and scold, but it is much better than letting the emperor praise two sentences.

The praise is formal, but the laughter and scolding are more intimate. As a eunuch and a close attendant, it is obvious that Du Fu is extremely clear about his position.

"Yang Tinghe ......," Emperor Hongzhi muttered, "Didn't you say a few days ago that his son was vomited blood by that stinky boy in Changchun Garden?

Du Fu nodded and said, "Back to Your Majesty, it's true." However, I heard that early this morning, Yang Shiyu sent his son to his hometown in Shuzhong to return, and it is said that a few coughs came from time to time in the car, and it was not very good to think that it would be better. ”

Emperor Hongzhi raised his eyebrows, as if he was a little surprised, but then nodded and exclaimed: "Yang Jiefu is really worthy of a masterpiece, and he is quite familiar with the way to advance and retreat to protect himself." ”

Du Fu sneered and flattered: "Not all of them are Your Majesty's discerning people, I don't know how many talents in Hanlin, I can choose this person to assist the prince." ”

Hongzhi Diha laughed, pushed the teacup in his hand, Du Fu hurriedly reached out to take it, and respectfully put it on the table.

"You're an old thing, you're here to fool me again. Yang Jiefu has the talent of Zaifu, but he can be humble and guarded, which is really capable. It's just that his son is a little impetuous, quite unruly, and he still owes some heat. This time he has been suppressed for three or two years, and he has been grinding his temperament, and he has not been able to become a great weapon in the future, which is what I praise him. It is easy to understand others, but it is not easy to understand yourself. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Du Fu with a look on his face.

Du Fu smiled on his face, but his heart trembled, and he only felt that the emperor looked at him thoroughly, and there was nothing to hide.

Emperor Hongzhi didn't say anything more, paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back for a few steps, and suddenly tilted his head and said, "Big companion, you just said...... And he brought a friend with him?"

Du Fu was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly slammed into it. Nodding his head, he said, "Back to Your Majesty, yes." However, Yang Shiyu's friend is a person with a background, named Yuan Zonggao, a native of Shishou in Jingzhou Mansion, a three-year jinshi in Hongzhi, and a long-term governor of Xingwangfu. Ten years, awarded the general doctor. I met Yang Shiyu when I was studying in the past, and I had a good relationship, and this time I came to visit friends. ”

Emperor Hongzhi paused, and there seemed to be a moment of stagnation, but then it resumed. Nodding his head and not speaking, he stopped at the door and looked up at the sky far away. Half a sound, whispered softly: "Xingwangfu ......"

Du Fu looked at his back standing with his hands in his hands, a trace of doubt flashed in his faint old eyes, he thought about it, turned around and took a big coat, walked over lightly and put it on for him, and whispered: "Your Majesty, be careful of catching a cold." ”

Emperor Hongzhi seemed to be startled, looked back at him, smiled, and turned to leave the door. After walking two steps, he suddenly asked, "What about that kid? Where is he now?"

Du Fu followed step by step, and said with a smile: "Deng Shilang should have gone to Xishan today." It is said that he bought a large mansion over there, and even surrounded the entire West Mountain. By the way, it is said that his house was bought from the two uncles, and it was quite deflated by the two uncles at that time. ”

Emperor Hongzhi immediately burst into laughter. Laughed: "Oh, there is such a thing? Ha, it's normal, that little bastard is a person who refuses to suffer." When Jian Changbo and Shou Ninghou met him, they met a nemesis, and the ruffian was a scoundrel, depending on who was more shameless. Jianchangbo and Shouning Hou, hehe, I'm afraid it's really not enough to see. ”

For his two brothers-in-law, Emperor Hongzhi also had a headache. At this time, I heard that the two of them were deflated in Su Mo's hands, and subconsciously imagined the scene in my mind, and I couldn't help but be funny and angry.

Thinking about it now, those two people have become Su Mo's errands, but they don't have the noise they made to themselves in the past, and they can't help but laugh again. Is this considered a thing to drop a thing? Just thinking about it again, who is more shameless than who wins or not, I can't help but hate again.

"That bastard boy, he's hiding so well. Hmph, what about the whole West Mountain, what a big deal...... By the way, what did he say about that Rausch conference?" sat down at the back of the case again, casually threw the torn big on the couch next to him, and scolded a few words stupidly before asking about the matter.

Du Fu suffocated slightly, hesitated slightly, and then cautiously organized his words: "Back to Your Majesty, the conference didn't say anything else, but it just clarified the quota of each family again." But there is one thing that the old slave thinks may be a little inappropriate. ”

Emperor Hongzhi sighed and motioned for him to continue.

Du Fu hesitated, and then said: "The group of weavers that Deng Shilang found were organized after the conference that day, and Deng Shilang personally awarded a text called the Secret Dictionary. It is said that the above is the specific method of using wool. The old slave felt ...... Felt ......"

He hesitated a little when he said this, and his words began to be swallowed.

Emperor Hongzhi's eyes sharpened sharply, his brows frowned slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "What do you think?"

Du Fu gritted his teeth, bowed down and said, "The old slave thinks that such an important object should not be put in the hands of those weavers so easily. Otherwise, once something is leaked, if the Mongols are allowed to go, won't it make it clear to me that it will become a wedding dress for others? The so-called pulling a hair and moving the whole body, the old slave is only afraid that in this way, the little benefit is nothing, and he is afraid that it will affect the covenant between the two parties, but it is a big deal. ”

Emperor Hongzhi's eyes narrowed, his fingers moved rapidly on the table, and he didn't say a word. After half a sound, he said again: "According to your wishes, what should I do?"

Du Fu's eyes flashed, and then he disappeared, and lowered his head and said: "Such a big thing, the old slave dares to say more." I just think that everything should be controlled by His Majesty. In the past, such important things were also sealed by the prohibition to prevent them from being leaked out. ”

Emperor Hongzhi shook his fingers, and his face changed. After a while, he suddenly said: "Spread the decree, and Su Mo will enter the palace tomorrow." In addition, the factory guards closely monitor all Jiangnan weavers and make sure that no one comes into contact with them. ”

Du Fu bowed down.

Emperor Hongzhi also said: "Spread my will, let the princes of all feudal lords who come to Beijing return to their domains, and leave Beijing within ten days without delay." Go for it!"

Du Fu was startled, then received the order again, turned around and hurried away.

Emperor Hongzhi sat alone in the hall, his eyes flickering and unpredictable.

The capital, the palace of King Ning.

Ning Wang Zhu Chenhao's face was gloomy, and he looked at Liu Yangzheng, who was sitting at the bottom, and said hatefully: "This says let me come, and I say I will leave, what am I waiting for?"

Liu Yang's face changed, and he subconsciously glanced out. Li Shishi, who was slightly closed on the other side, opened his eyes sharply and said in a low voice: "Lord Wang is cautious!"

Zhu Chenhao was stunned and stood up suddenly. stared at Li Shishi, his chest rose and fell sharply, his face was purple, and he actually showed a bit of hideousness.

Li Shishi met his gaze without giving in, his face did not change, but he said indifferently without looking back: "Wait and retreat first." ”

A few servants in the hall did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly retreated lightly. Li Shishi looked at Liu Yangzheng slightly, Liu Yangzheng was stunned, a look of shame flashed in his eyes, and the fist in his sleeve was clenched tightly. But after a moment, he relaxed again, flicked his sleeves and stood up, bowed slightly to the two of them, turned around and walked out. When he went out, he closed the door with his backhand.

In the house, only Zhu Chenhao and Li Shishi were left. Li Shishi said softly: "Lord Wang, do you want to rebel?"

Zhu Chenhao's body was shocked, and he opened his mouth, but he didn't speak.

Li Shishi didn't wait for him to answer, and said to himself: "It is difficult to come to self-appeasement, and the Ming Dynasty has been cultivating externally and internally, and it has lasted for nearly a hundred years." Although there were changes in Jing and Tai during the period, and after the battle of Tumubao, the inside and outside were concentric, and it did not reach the point of breaking the muscles and bones. On the other hand, the prince now has no internal correspondence and has a shallow foundation; on the outside, he is only a man of the guard, so he is shabby to take care of his family and nursing home. Although there are a few water bandits and lake thieves, they are just the generation of local chickens and dogs, and it is difficult to become a climate. With such a balance of power, what does the prince think will happen if something happens at this time?"

He said indifferently, his tone was extremely calm, as if he were talking about eating and drinking. But every word and sentence is a big contradiction.

Zhu Chenhao was still indignant and excited at first, but the more he listened, the more his face turned pale. By the end, his body was trembling slightly, and he was terrified. Hearing Li Shishi's last question, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva with difficulty, and forcefully said, "I...... The king didn't say anything...... I didn't say I want to ...... now."

Syllable!

Li Shishi suddenly slapped his palm on the table, and the huge sound startled Zhu Chenhao, and he sat down in the chair.

Li Shishi's eyes widened angrily, his face no longer looked calm before, and he said sharply: "Since there is no objection, how dare you complain about the king and slander the king? Don't you know that if the king is not secret, he will lose his ministers, and if the ministers are not secret, he will lose his body, and if he is not secret, he will be harmful?

Zhu Chenhao's face was red, and he couldn't speak. For a long time, he muttered to himself: "There are no outsiders here......"

Raising his eyes, he saw Li Shishi change color, and hurriedly said: "Okay, well, it's all the king's fault." But what should I do now? Could it be true that I will go back like this? Sir, scold me slowly, and I need to deal with the matter in front of me before it is too late. ”

Li Shishi glared at him hatefully, and finally sighed helplessly, and said in a dark voice: "What's so difficult about this......!

Poked his head over and whispered, Zhu Chenhao listened carefully, nodded frequently, and his eyes slowly became brighter and brighter......
