Chapter Eighty-Nine: Ambition

Duan Jinrui bluntly said to Zhuang Lijue that what he wanted was the position of the lord of the world, Zhuang Lijue was naturally everything, the original worry and anxiety turned into pride, in his eyes, Duan Jinrui was the person he couldn't let go of on the one hand, and on the other hand, he was the lord he chose to stand above ten thousand people.

The matter of love, he Zhuang Lijue is hopeless in this life, so let himself be a part of Duan Jinrui's thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, so that when he sees the scenery in the sky, he can think of him Zhuang Lijue, isn't it also a kind of success and victory?

Both of them are capable people, and since they have made up their minds, they are naturally no longer delayed by those entanglements, but devote themselves to official affairs.

Under the rule of Emperor Anping, although the Daqian Dynasty has not expanded its territory, it can be regarded as singing and dancing to promote peace, but Duan Jinrui has traveled to Beijing to inspect, so he naturally knows very well how many sacrifices Duan Muheng has always made under the so-called benevolent government.

Those local malpractices, there is a lot of corruption in the rule of officials, if there are natural disasters and man-made disasters, it is thousands of people who are displaced, and the plague that swept through the pass last year is a clear proof, if it is not for his prince in the section of the Jinrong that prince came forward, the following treatment is timely, I don't know how many people will be ruined.

Duan Jinrui never intended to wait in place, working hard for years and years, consuming the old emperor to death, and then letting the throne fall on his head because of the emperor's insistence, nor did he want to put all his good years into the mood of fighting with Duan Jinrong.

What he wants is what everyone wants, and what he wants to do is an inevitable trend.

He is now in charge of the affairs of the household department, and it is an extremely convenient position to do something for the people of this country, the household department is in charge of the world's silver two taxes, but wherever there is any appropriation, the household department needs to allocate two silver taels, but Duan Jinrui knows in his heart that most of the silver taels have gone into the pockets of officials at all levels.

With the support of Zhuang Lijue, the diligent people who originally went to the household department to check the accounts and check are now even more wasteful and forget to sleep and eat, summoning some low-level officials from time to time for questioning, and what's more, under the protection of Zhuang Lijue's subordinates, as well as the support of those secret information provided by Lu Junfeng, he personally explored those places that were said to need appropriations, and sure enough, he caught a lot of moths, and Duan Jinrui was not polite, but where there is a problem, most of them are taken from office, and they are greater, if they can spit out the silver, and they will confess to the people behind them with meritorious service. to be able to survive.

The results are good, at least those who dared to leave at least half of the local appropriations for political affairs and agriculture in the past are much more honest, and when the hand is extended, they will weigh the black sand on their heads.

The common people, in a short period of time, have kept the name of the crown prince Duan Jinrui in their hearts and spread the praise, they have always been such a group of simple people, they don't need any glory and wealth, as long as they can do something practical for them, they will always remember it in their hearts.

It's just that in this way, Duan Jinrui has offended a large number of people, on the surface he is the prince above 10,000 people under one person, no one dares to do anything in person, secretly, but he wants to find out his mistakes, above the court, His Royal Highness the Prince's subordinates have been attacked a lot, especially King Rong**.

Zhuang Lijue is a little worried, he has blood and heart, but he is even more a qualified official child, some things, the authorities are confused, outsiders can see it more clearly, the prince has not yet ascended the throne to gain huge prestige among the people, and he will pull many officials off the horse, as an elderly emperor who does not know how many years to live, is there anything more uneasy for him?

In all dynasties, for that position, father and son killed each other, and the matter of brother Yan Wall has never been severed, and it abounds.

He is the commander of the forbidden army guards in the palace, and he is extremely well-informed about the information in the palace, but he still doesn't see what the emperor thinks about what Duan Jinrui did, he is naturally happy that Duan Jinrui is powerful, and he is even more worried that the other party is jealous of the emperor.

Zhuang Lijue persuaded Duan Jinrui, Duan Jinrui smiled at him, and reassured him that no matter what, the emperor would never take his life, what Zhuang Lijue wanted to do was to keep an eye on the imperial concubine's bedroom, and if there was any movement, he had to know it clearly.

Zhuang Lijue didn't know where Duan Jinrui got such confidence, what he could do was to turn his worries into action and caution, do everything Duan Jinrui explained well, train more subordinates, and secretly protect the safety of the Prince's Mansion.

Zhuang Lijue also understood the things, Duan Jinrong naturally thought more clearly, he had done everything quietly in the previous twenty-one years, and he had tried his best to cover it up, but hadn't Nalan Mingxiu already taught him some imperial scheming?

Therefore, for Duan Jinrui's resolute and resolute action, he not only did not stop it at the beginning, but also added fuel to the fire, and even abandoned some of the less important people under his defeat, just to make Duan Jinrui's momentum bigger and bigger.

If you want to make it die, make it crazy first, seeing that the time is almost up, Duan Jinrong can't hold it anymore, secretly connecting, and looking forward to being able to pull Duan Jinrui off the horse, jumping up and down, and even those conservative appearances in the past have been broken a lot.

It's just that what disappointed him was that Duan Muheng not only did not reprimand the prince because of the attacks of many ministers, but even had the intention of abolishing the prince, and the court came up with a lot of evidence of corruption and dereliction of duty by officials who were handled by Duan Jinrui, including Duan Jinrui's people, and more of them, but they were held by the emperor himself.

The emperor was furious, and demoted the most cheerful of those few jumpers directly, making him go home to reflect, and the emperor's anger made the courtiers under him tremble, and then I remembered that above the nine layers, the emperor who had been silent for a long time used to rise to the throne by killing decisively, and when he was young, he also dealt with many courtiers ruthlessly.

Duan Jinrong was not reprimanded by the emperor, but his face was even more embarrassing than being reprimanded by Duan Muheng and those subordinates together.

After the emperor finished saying this, Duan Jinrong felt that the eyes of the people around him looked at him, which made people look strange.

Such a right is equivalent to the right of the emperor to come in person, what is even more fearful is that the emperor has shown that Duan Jinrong has never seen Duan Muheng so happy for his absolute trust in the crown prince, as if, Duan Jinrui can do his best, what a great happy event for his father, even with the suspicion that should exist between the emperor and the prince in the past, there is no such thing.

After the next dynasty, Duan Muheng directly summoned Duan Jinrui to accompany him, and he contacted the relationship between father and son, since Duan Jinrui got married, Duan Jinrong has more and more premonitions that he cannot succeed.

He wanted to rush into the palace immediately to complain to Nalan Mingxiu, and wanted his mother to help him, but he still had reason, the emperor even knew the many injustices of those who were disposed of by Duan Jinrui, which showed that the shili in the other party's hands was beyond his imagination, he didn't dare to touch the tiger's whiskers, at least not today, Duan Jinrong was never Duan Jinrui, the ones he owned were carefully managed by himself bit by bit, he didn't dare to take the slightest risk and expose his manpower, And then let the emperor understand his ambitions, how the high-ranking emperor would deal with himself, who is also a son, he dare not imagine.

Barely smiling and returning to the mansion, Duan Jinrong locked himself in the room alone, smashing everything in the entire room that he could see, tired and panting, but he still felt uneasy.

"Why, the same son, why do I work so hard and be careful in every way, and I can't get a praise from my father, he is so ignorant and willful, and he can still get the trust of his father, why!"

With a hoarse voice, but still having to lower his voice, Duan Jinrong's face was gloomy.

"With the way you are now, how can you possibly get what you want?"

A soft female voice like a yellow warbler came, Duan Jinrong's body stiffened, looking at the veiled woman on her face, the expression on her face was a little surprised, but there was more coldness, Duan Jinrong's appearance was extremely impatient, and he didn't see the gentleman Ruyu when he faced outsiders: "What are you doing?" Get lost! ”

The person who came didn't mind the man's bad attitude at all, and opened his lips to himself: "The concubine came to help her husband's ......"

The white embroidered shoes embroidered with pink butterflies slowly crossed the fragments, the light veil swept through, the woman's figure was beautiful and moving, even if it was separated by a veil, it could not hide the soft and beautiful outline.

- Duan Muheng summoned Duan Jinrui, the court clothes on his body had not been changed before he arrived in front of the emperor, but the other party was already wearing regular clothes.

Duan Muheng glared at Zhao Suo, and Manager Zhao was excited, explaining to the emperor that he had prepared a change of clothes for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but he didn't have time to take them out, and led Duan Jinrui to change his clothes with a smile on his face.

Duan Jinrui noticed that he was wearing clothes with the same pattern and style as the emperor's body, fortunately it was apricot yellow instead of bright yellow, otherwise, he would really have to imagine what Duan Muheng was going to do.

Duan Muheng looked at the apricot yellow on Duan Jinrui's body, and the expression on his face softened a little, becoming more fatherly: "My son looks good like this......

After finishing speaking, he was going to pull Duan Jinrui's hand.

Duan Jinrui took a step back: "There is a difference between the monarch and the minister, and the sons and ministers dare not overstep!" ”

Bowing his hand halfway, he inadvertently pulled his distance back, Duan Muheng maintained him so unhesitatingly, to be honest, Duan Jinrui was a little surprised, but the rift had already existed, and the broken mirror could not be reunited.

Duan Muheng glared at his stubborn son, flicked his sleeves, turned around and left.

Duan Jinrui followed behind Duan Muheng, guarding the courtesy of the monarch and the minister, the distance between father and son is said to be a one-step distance, but in fact, there are thousands of mountains and rivers apart?

"It's here!"

Duan Jinrui took a step back suddenly, his ice-white face turned pale little by little, as if he was frightened.
