Chapter 36 Xingwang is now ambitious
In the blink of an eye, it has entered early summer, thinking that it is because of the slight heat of the day, at noon, if the people are idle and have nothing to do, they are always reluctant to go out and ask themselves to bask in a certain amount of sun. โ Eight? One in one? No NoNo? `ใใ๏ผ-๏ผใ
is also idle, but Zhu Youqi is unwilling to stay in the Xingwang Mansion. thinks that now that Zhang Junqi is pregnant, if she gives birth to a prince this time, Zhu Youqi's so-called imperial brother and his party will definitely lose. Now he has a very high official position and only Liu Zhang, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, is left, plus those courtiers who are only the size of sesame mung beans, even if Zhang Junfang is not pregnant, he is doomed to lose to her.
The more Zhang Junqi's body is more prominent, the weaker the position of Zhu Youqi's party becomes, because now there are people fleeing every once in a while. Speaking of which, those people are just petty officials, and Zhu Youqi doesn't have much use, whether to leave or stay, Zhu Youqi doesn't care, but if Liu Zhang wants to fall with the wind, then Zhu Youqi really doesn't even have the slightest room for maneuver.
It's just that Liu Zhang, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, is such a wall grass.
Since Zhu Youqi had the intention to compete for the crown, he had never visited his courtiers, and this is the first time he has returned to Liu Zhang's mansion.
Zhu Youqi went to Liu Zhang's mansion, and just got off the carriage, he saw the housekeeper carrying two gift boxes and putting them in the carriage not far in front, and said to the coachman: "These two are sent to the Shouning Hou Mansion, the big one is the Shouning Hou Zhang Heling, and the small one is the Jianchang Bo Zhang Yanling."
Zhu Youqi heard what the family said, it turned out that this gift was going to be sent to the Zhang family, and this Liu Zhang was really about to defect.
The coachman answered, and then drove away, and the family didn't recognize Zhu Youqi, so he just glanced at it and ignored it. The entourage who followed Zhu Youqi saw that the family was gone, and hurriedly called, but the family stopped and asked, "What's the matter!"
The attendant said: "Go and report to your family......"
Zhu Youqi originally wanted to come over to explore the situation, but now that he learned that Liu Zhang was no longer willing to face him, he would no longer have a hot face against his cold ass. Hearing that the entourage was about to speak, he hurriedly interrupted with a scolding.
The entourage was reprimanded, and he was stunned, and Zhu Youqi didn't want to say that Liu Zhang didn't have to visit anymore. So he had no choice but to say, "Don't make mistakes."
Zhu Youqi turned around and wanted to board the carriage to leave, when the housekeeper of Shangshu Mansion came out and saw Zhu Youqi coming, but he was surprised and happy, and hurriedly called: "Lord Xing!"
Hearing Zhu Youqi turn around. The housekeeper had already greeted him, bowed to Zhu Youqi, and asked, "The prince is coming back this time, but is there something wrong with my family?"
Even if this Zhu Youqi has backbone, he really doesn't want to give up Liu Zhang's big force, so he still responded with a smile, and the housekeeper didn't know Liu Zhang's intentions, so he actually made a gesture to invite him into the house.
Zhu Youqi returned to the coachman and said, "You go back to the house first," and then went into the house with the housekeeper. 81 Swastika ยค Net--ใ. ใ๏ผ`๏ผ-๏ฝ-`๏ผ-๏ฝใ๏ฝ`๏ฝ
The butler led Zhu Youqi and his entourage to the Guitang and bowed slightly. With a smile on his face, he said, "Lord Wang, please sit down for a while, and I'll go and inform the adults."
Zhu Youqi nodded, sat down, the housekeeper straightened up, turned around and instructed the maid, "Serve tea to the prince."
"Yes."
The housekeeper said that he went to the backyard.
Before he walked to the backyard, he heard from a distance that Liu Zhang was playing with the concubine room and a few maids in the house. Palace Diagram.
Seeing the housekeeper come in, the concubines and the maids in the room were shocked. Seeing that he was disheveled, he hurriedly hid, Liu Zhang also gathered his clothes, and reprimanded: "What are you doing recklessly!"
It's not that the steward is reckless. He did it on purpose.
The housekeeper said stupidly: "My lord, the prince is here."
"Lord Wang?" Liu Zhang hung down his clothes and asked, "What prince?"
The housekeeper said, "It's King Xing."
"What?! Xingwang? Liu Zhang was quite stunned and said, "Why is he here!"
Seeing Liu Zhang's expression, the housekeeper didn't seem to want to see Zhu Youqi at all, so he asked, "My lord." Do you see it, or do you not see it? โ
Liu Zhang pulled up his clothes, crossed the housekeeper, and went straight out of the door, only saying: "I can still avoid him!"
When the housekeeper saw him go out, he hurriedly followed, Liu Zhang was about to go to Guitang, but he suddenly stopped, the housekeeper lowered his head, and he didn't know that Liu Zhang had stopped, so he hit it hard.
Liu Zhang turned around and didn't reproach him, but only said in a low voice: "You go and tell King Xing, just say I...... He is unwell and inconvenient to see a guest, so I ask him to go back to the house first, and I will definitely visit him another day. โ
The housekeeper exclaimed, "Don't see him?!"
"Be quiet!" Liu Zhang hurriedly reprimanded and said, "A paper tiger who has lost power, what do I see him doing!" Just go! โ
The housekeeper said yes, walked quickly past Liu Zhang, and walked to Guitang. When Zhu Youqi saw him come back, but didn't see Liu Zhang coming, he couldn't help but be stunned and asked, "Why didn't you see Liu Shangshu?"
Hearing Zhu Youqing's inquiry, the housekeeper naturally didn't speak well, and said: "Lord Wang, my family is sick today, and it is really inconvenient to meet guests, or ...... You go back first, and when the adults are better another day, I will definitely visit you in person. Bayi Chinese Noโ Net? ใ-ใ๏ผ-๏ผ-๏ผ`๏ฝใใ๏ผ-๏ฝ-๏ฝ-๏ฝ-โ
Hearing this, the entourage couldn't help but reprimand: "What is not bad!" I think he just doesn't want to come out to see the prince! โ
The housekeeper was frightened when he heard this, and hurriedly explained: "That's not it, the adult is indeed sick."
Everyone could hear the meaning of the housekeeper's words, and the entourage couldn't help but reprimand, but Zhu Youqi was still calm, and he really could bear it.
Zhu Youqi replied to his entourage: "Don't be rude!"
Although the entourage was unwilling in his heart, it was not easy to contradict Zhu Youqi, so he had to remain silent.
Although Zhu Youqi seemed to have eaten a closed door, his face was quite calm and calm, and he politely thanked the housekeeper politely, and then left with his entourage.
Now this Zhu Youqi really outweighs the loss, he left the house and didn't see the carriage, thinking that he had just seen the carriage sent back, he really regretted it, and the weather was hot and dry, the more depressed and irritable he became.
The entourage saw Zhu Youqi's thoughts, and asked, "Lord Wang, do you want to go back and call a carriage quickly?"
"No need," Zhu Youqi's face was gloomy, and he said, "With such a little footsteps, this king can still come over."
"Yes."
Not far from Liu Zhang's house, Zhu Youqi was already getting more and more bored, and suddenly heard a call, which came from behind him, Zhu Youqi heard the sound back, and saw that the person who called him was wearing a court dress, and he was also a little familiar. It seems to be his people.
It's just that this person's position is low, and Zhu Youqi doesn't have much impression of him.
Zhu Youqi stopped waiting for him, and the man hurriedly greeted him when he saw the situation, and said to him, "Lord Wang."
The entourage still had a straight face. Slightly rushed: "Do you have something to do?" I think he is loyal, but he is too loyal.
The man couldn't help but be stunned, Zhu Youqi gave his entourage a look, and the man calmed down when he saw the situation, but he was still a little ashamed. smiled at Zhu Youqing.
The two walked together all the way and talked about many court events.
"Seeing that the power in the DPRK and China is now monopolized by the Zhang family, what countermeasures can the prince have?"
Every time Zhu Youqi heard Zhang Junqi, he couldn't help frowning slightly, his face was also slightly gloomy, and he said: "If you want to take back a city, this king also has countermeasures, but at present, the forces in the court and China are all dependent on the imperial sister-in-law and the Zhang family, and this king is no longer as good as before."
"Could it be that the prince is willing to dispel the idea of fighting for the prince?" This man spoke with indignation.
These words seemed to hit the sore spot in Zhu Youqi's heart, and he snorted softly. Hatred said: "This king has been planning for so long, how can he be willing to give up!" It's just that I have to recuperate for a while. โ
"I think about the original six departments, except for the two pedantic rotten trees of the military department Ma Wensheng and the official department Wang Shu, which of the rest is not attached to the prince. I don't want this Zhang family to be so insidious, taking advantage of the prince's unpreparedness, he has successively knocked down the people from the household department, the ritual department and the criminal department, and now only the Ministry of Industry Shangshu Liu is on the side of the prince, and the other five departments are all Zhang's people. โ
mentioned Liu Zhang, and now he has also defected. Zhu Youqi didn't want to tell others, so as not to suppress his strength, but after thinking about it, how could the Ministry of Rites be Zhang Junyu's person. It was to ask: "Xu Qiong, the head of the household, this king heard that this person was personally promoted by the emperor's brother, is he also the emperor's sister-in-law?"
Thinking that when Xu Qiong was promoted to the head of the household by Zhu Youjiao, Zhu Youqi had rushed to the Yellow River to control the water, and he didn't know the situation in the DPRK and China, but he could hear some rumors.
The man sighed softly. said: "The prince doesn't know, there have been rumors that this Xu Qiong's late concubine is the cousin of the Zhang family, that is, the sister of Zhang Yiling, and Xu Qiong was promoted to the head of the household department, which is also the credit of the Zhang family."
Zhu Youqi tightly twisted his eyebrows, and did not speak, now don't say that the old cabinet of the court is facing Zhang Junfang, even the six ministries are all Zhang Junfang's forces, what else is he going to compete with Zhu Houzhao!
"Lord Wang, the situation between the DPRK and China is very tense now! Although His Majesty reused the six Shangshu, the most trusted ones have always been several scholars in the court and China (scholars are cabinet assistants, for example, Liu Ji is a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, so Liu Ji is also called Liu Ge Lao. The cabinet was the largest authority in the country in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, and although the cabinet auxiliary position was low, it was equivalent to the position of the prime minister, which was actually a hundred officials), such as Liu Ji, Li Dongyang and others. Lord Wang, it doesn't matter if the six Shangshu are biased towards the Zhang family, but do you think, this Liu Ji and Li Dongyang, they are somewhat involved with the Zhang family, but Yang Yanhe and Xu Pu have always been honest, you see, do you want to dig them up? โ
If it's really a pot that can't be opened, I just heard Zhu Youqi ask with a cold face: "Are you growing the ambition of others and destroying your own prestige?"
The man was asked by Zhu Youqi, and immediately couldn't answer, and Zhu Youqi said again: "Now the imperial sister-in-law has gained some morale just by virtue of her belly, if her child can't be born, can you see that she can still laugh?"
"Does the prince have a way?" There was a slight joy in this person's words, but also a secret surprise.
Zhu Youqi didn't answer, just hooked his lips and smiled proudly, at that time they had already walked to the Xingwang Mansion, the man stopped his steps, turned to face Zhu Youqi, bowed his body slightly, and said with a flattering smile: "Lord, Weichen will do his best to be loyal to the prince, go to the soup and fight the fire, and never give up."
Hearing this, Zhu Youqi smiled indifferently and asked, "What's your name?"
The man said: "Weichen Li Guang."
And said that Zhang Junyu is pregnant, Zhu Youzhu is now going to Kunning Palace to be more diligent, almost every day as soon as the morning court runs to Kunning Palace, these months have not even stepped on the door of the Qianqing Palace, as for the daily courtiers to submit the book, he ordered Zhang Yu to send someone to move to Kunning Palace.
Speaking of which, this Zhu Youzhu originally went to Kunning Palace to go very diligently, and in the past, every day after the morning court, or the noon court, he went to the Qianqing Palace to review the recital, and from time to time summoned the ministers of the court to discuss political affairs. After the daily work is over, he will go to Kunning Palace to rest.
The emperors of the past dynasties are staying in the Qianqing Palace, the East Warm Pavilion summons the Lucky Queen, the West Warm Pavilion summons the concubines, to Zhu Youzhang's generation, the Qianqing Palace is actually more and more deserted, don't say that the West Warm Pavilion has never rested, that is, the East Warm Pavilion, and it has not been inhabited for a long time.
It is said that this Dongnuan Pavilion has been uninhabited for a long time, and Zhu Youzhu has still rested here, but it was a few years ago, when he first ascended the throne, he never wanted to look at Zhang Junfang directly, and he would not rest in Kunning Palace. Besides, now, even if he and Zhang Junfang have an awkward quarrel, they must be staying in Kunning Palace, and as for the sleeping place, it is the Xinuan Pavilion of Kunning Palace.
This time, he finished the notebook, raised his arms and was about to stretch his waist, turned his head to look into the warm pavilion, but saw Zhang Junfang standing on the dressing table, bowing down and holding up the wooden stool, he was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly ran to take the wooden stool, and exclaimed: "With such a big belly, how can you do such a heavy thing!"
Zhang Junfang was not very bored, so he straightened up, turned around and ignored him, walked to the soft couch, and when he saw the scissors, he picked them up casually and took a look. Zhu Youzhu happened to put down the wooden stool at this time, raised his head and saw Zhang Junzhu holding the scissors, he couldn't help but be shocked again, walked quickly and snatched the scissors, and said: "Zhu'er is still pregnant, with this, if it hurts the child, how can it be good!"
Hearing this, Zhang Junyu reprimanded: "Don't let this be touched!" Don't let you touch that! Concubines can also rest their beds all day long. Lying on it?! โ
Zhu Youzhu paused, nodded and said, "Yes."
Zhang Junzhu felt that he could no longer communicate with him, so he sat down angrily, and Zhu Youzhu also sat beside her, reaching out to caress her slightly bulging belly, but Zhang Junfang raised his hand to open it, so he withdrew his hand and asked, "What's wrong with Zhu'er?"
This Zhang Junyu frowned slightly, sighed lightly, and said: "As the saying goes, one white covers three ugliness, one fat destroys everything, and the concubine is afraid that she will be fat......"
Zhu Youzhu chuckled and said, "That's it?"
Zhang Junzhu was silent, and Zhu Youzhu then said: "Zhu'er is already thin, and he can't get much fat."
Hearing Zhu Youjiao's words, Zhang Junfang became more and more displeased, and turned his back to him slightly, so he got up and sat on the other side, facing Zhang Junjiao, and said with a smile: "Even if Zhu'er is fat, it is also the goddess in my heart."
Zhang Junfang turned his back on him again and said, "Flim tongue."
Zhu Youzhu reluctantly got up and sat down opposite her again, and said, "If you don't believe it, then I will eat myself fat, and I will be as fat as Zhu'er when the time comes."
I think it's okay if he Zhu Youzhu didn't say this, but as soon as he said it, Zhang Junzhu became more and more angry...... (To be continued.) )
