Chapter 225: Looking for Gonggong Hai (Asking for Subscription)
"Father-in-law Hai's mind is very sufficient, and our little eunuchs are all convinced of him. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info he is righteous and angry with people, and my relationship with him is closer than my brother. ”
Hearing Xiao Zhenzi praise like this, Zhu Zhanji summoned this Hai Gonggong.
As soon as they met, Zhu Zhanji felt very satisfied. This Gonggong Hai is tall and heroic, and his expression is a bit like a person - Li Qian, Zhu Zhanji's first stand-in guard in his youth.
In the twelfth year of Yongle, he followed Zhu Zhanji to conquer Mongolia in person, and took Zhu Zhanji, who went to the battlefield for the first time, to kill the enemy in person in order to make meritorious contributions, and finally committed suicide in shame because he let the imperial grandson go deep into danger.
A few months later, Zhu Zhanji, who had recovered from his injuries on the battlefield, learned of Li Qian's death, and he was really sad for a long time.
When Zhu Zhanji asked, the eunuch Haitao in front of him turned out to be Li Qian's younger brother.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, back then, my brother almost let the prince die under the sword of the master of Warat, because of his haste to advance, and committed the crime of destroying the door.
However, the Emperor and you have pardoned my brother's crime and given him a hundred gold in a pension, and our family was deeply moved. ”
Speaking of this, Gonggong Hai hurriedly knelt down on the ground again, and said in a trembling voice:
"So, my father sent me to the palace again. Although the villain is conceited and talented and can do great things, I think our Li family is worthy of His Royal Highness, so he has never dared to recommend it to His Royal Highness the Prince.
Therefore, I even changed my name to Haitao, and everyone called me Haigonggong, but I didn't know that my original real name was actually Li Tao. ”
At this time, Zhu Zhanji was overjoyed when he heard that Hai's father-in-law said this, he stepped forward to help Haitao and said excitedly:
"Li Qian is the man I and the imperial grandfather admire the most, in fact, after the imperial grandfather and I calmed down, we would not punish him.
But he was so guilty that he committed suicide first, and this incident saddened me for a long time. Because Li Qian is the chief of the guard who grew up with me, just like my brother. ”
"His Royal Highness the Prince, the villain's brother is just a little eunuch, how dare he be the prince's brother and torture his brother. His Royal Highness loves my brother so much, I think my brother has no regrets even if he dies. ”
At this time, Haitao heard that Zhu Zhanji actually called Li Qian his brother, and his heart was both excited and moved.
Seeing this, Zhu Zhanji said in a more affectionate tone:
"Today, God actually sent Li Qian's brother's younger brother to this prince, I believe that it must be the emperor's grandfather who is blessing me.
Last time, Li Qian and I didn't complete the great event of meritorious service in the field, today, Gonggong Hai, dare to complete a bigger thing with me? ”
Where could Father-in-law Hai stand Zhu Zhanji's agitation with such emotion, and immediately knelt eagerly in front of Zhu Zhanji, and said loudly:
"I am willing to make cattle and horses for His Royal Highness the Prince, and I will not give up on the sword mountain and the sea of fire."
Zhu Zhanji smiled slightly, stretched his mouth to Gonggong Hai's ear, and whispered, "I want you ......"
After arranging all this, Zhu Zhanji finally began to set off for Nanjing according to his father's request......
At this time, Zhu Gaochi, the Han king of Shandong, had already heard the news that Zhu Zhanji had left Beijing and went to Nanjing to pay homage to the mausoleum.
"Lord Wang, the new emperor Zhu Gaochi now has no Zhu Zhanji by his side, we can let the people who stay in the capital show their skills and feet, make waves in the court, and make more troubles, we must let the new emperor's first year of Hongxi not be peaceful."
Prince Wenhala suggested.
"Well, you don't need to say this, this king has already commanded. It's just that although Zhu Zhanji is not around, there are still some capable people with lofty ideals around my straw bag brother to assist him, and it is not so easy to mess up his government for a while. But we won't miss a chance. ”
King Han said with a deep groan.
"By the way, Lord Wang, what is the attitude of the British Duke now?"
Prince Winhara couldn't help but ask this most important question.
"Hey, the old fox."
As soon as he talked about the British Gong Zhang Fu, King Han couldn't help but have a headache:
"Before the British duke, his attitude was very vague in the face of my several temptations to ask for directions, and it was obvious that he had room for the new emperor.
But what is unbelievable is that not long ago, he married his only youngest daughter to Zhu Gaochi and was named Concubine Shun.
In this way, the Zhang family and the Zhu family have this level of kinship, and they are afraid that each other's interests will be more closely connected. ”
Han King Zhu Gaoxu frowned, and said the latest news they had just discovered in the capital.
After thinking for a while, Prince Wenhala said:
In fact, there is no emotional basis and trust guarantee for a political marriage like this. There have been many political marriages in the past dynasties, and how many successful cases have been immobilized because of political marriages.
If either party wants to turn the other cheek, they will not care about the so-called marriage of their children, everything is dominated by the maximization of the interests of both parties. ”
Zhu Gaoxu thought carefully about Prince Wenhala's words, and after a while, he nodded:
"Yes. Actually, I also suspected that the British Duke took the initiative to marry this favorite daughter to the emperor, which may have deliberately shown weakness to the emperor.
He used such a means to show the emperor that he was getting older, and that what he wanted might be just a glory and wealth, and nothing else. The new emperor is naturally happy to fulfill him. ”
Prince Wenhala smiled faintly:
"However, his daughter is just a concubine, not a queen, I think he has no obligation to accompany Zhu Gaochi to the funeral.
If one day, once the wind is not in favor of the new emperor, I believe that this old fox will make the right choice. At that time, he may not take the initiative to let this daughter marry you again. ”
"Hmph."
King Han sneered, as if fantasizing about what Prince Wenhala had said.
"Okay, the prince has a sharp eye and has always been very accurate in seeing people, so let's pay close attention to the movements in Beijing and make some articles."
King Han patted Prince Wenhala on the shoulder and said excitedly.
At this time, in Steward Cui's mansion, Su Xuelian faintly felt a sense of unease.
She promised Zi Yan to send someone to contact her old master, Emperor Jianwen Zhu Yunwen, and then the King of Han secretly went to see Zhu Yunwen and came back alone.
The strange thing is that Prince Wen Hara did not know what happened during the time when the King of Han went to see Zhu Yunwen, and finally appeared with the King of Han together.
Her instincts told her that there might be something strange in this.
What made Su Xuelian even more uneasy was that after Zhu Yunwen met King Han, what happened and what agreement was reached between them, Su Xuelian didn't know anything.
Although these high-level secrets may not be told to them in such a small detail, at least Zhu Yunwen suddenly heard nothing after meeting King Han, which is really strange. (To be continued.) )
