Chapter 252: Yongle is also naïve
Ge Cheng is the head of the vassal palace, and he has never had much to do with the officials in Beijing, even if he used to have jiāo affection, he now has the label of King Yan on his head, and no one dares to provoke him, so he stays very lonely in Beijing. Within two days, he returned to Beiping with his majesty.
Ge Cheng traveled all the way, and after returning to Beiping, he went to the palace to ask Zhu Di, the king of Yan.
The court is tight step by step, Zhu Di, the king of Yan, is shocked and afraid, he is afraid of causing trouble, and he has not even been out of the palace recently, but he just called himself sick, and hid in the palace every day to watch the movement, and when he heard that Ge Cheng was back, Zhu Di was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly called him to come in.
The warmth in the pavilion was as warm as chūn, as soon as he saw Ge Cheng come in, Zhu Di hurriedly asked about the situation of going to Beijing, Ge Cheng had already thought of his words all the way, so he told Zhu Di about it, it was probably just some normal things to meet and give gifts, Zhu Di stared at him, and suddenly asked: "I heard that after the great court ceremony, the emperor once summoned you to play the right alone, but is there such a thing?" Ge Cheng was suddenly shocked in his heart, the emperor summoned him, he had entered since noon, and he didn't know how many people had seen him, if he had the heart, he could always inquire, but he hadn't been in the capital for a few days at all, and he didn't expect that King Yan already knew the news, did he have eyes and ears in the court? In this way, could it be that King Yan really has objections?
In fact, this is Ge Cheng's suspicion that he is a dark ghost, and Zhu Di, the king of Yan, really has no eyes and ears in Beijing. King Yan is not honest to that extent, Zhu Yunfen is tense, he has the opportunity to send spies to inquire about the well but does not send it, but he has no mén road at all. In the past, he never thought of being in the court, but now he is temporarily cramming, and he doesn't have the opportunity to "send someone to just stand on the street and know the secrets of the court?"
If King Jia is really as the folk rumors say, he has been anti-against for a long time, and he has many eyes and ears in the court, "He will not be in trouble for four years, and he has escaped death several times, only circling around the periphery." Later, the eunuchs around Zhu Yunfen couldn't stand the emperor's treatment of civil officials who committed serious crimes as treasures, and the eunuchs who occasionally made mistakes were not treated as people, so they angrily took refuge in King Yan and sent someone to send a letter to King Jia.
So how did King Yan know about this? Of course, it was a letter sent by his Xiǎo brother-in-law, Xu Zengshou.
Xu Zengshou also saw that the emperor was going to deal with his eldest brother-in-law next, so as soon as there was any major news about Zhu Di, he asked someone to report it quickly, "So King Yan knew that the emperor summoned Ge Cheng alone."
Although Ge Cheng is afraid of things as Huang Zicheng said, after all, he gets along with Yan Dynasty and is very familiar with people, and his fear is far less sincere and fearful than when he first told the Son of Heaven. Some time ago, I heard that the Mongolian people in northern Xinjiang were stupid, and the imperial court didn't allocate a large number of soldiers and horses to wait for them, and the emperor summoned him to inquire about the recent movements of the Mongolian people in the north. "Oh" I see. So, "Can the long history give the king's heart to the emperor?" ”
Ge Cheng said with a difficult face: "The emperor doesn't say a word about this," the minister really has no chance to export. If you take the liberty to put it forward, I'm afraid that it will be more and more black, and won't it hurt Your Highness? However, His Majesty "seems to care only about whether the Mongolian people in the north really want to go south, not to mention the bravery of His Royal Highness, who has always been feared by the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, and the emperor will not fight His Highness's idea at this time." ”
Zhu Di sighed and said: "What Changshi said is also reasonable, then I will rest assured."
After answering again, Zhu Di said: "Changshi has worked hard all the way, let's go home and rest for a few days first." Anyway, there is nothing going on in the palace recently, so there is no need to worry. ”
"Yes, thank you, Lord Wang."
Ge Cheng bowed and retreated, Zhu Di smiled and bowed, and when Ge Cheng withdrew from the pavilion, Zhu Di's face immediately sank.
Concubine Xu flashed out lightly from behind the screen, walked to Zhu Di's side, gently pressed her hand on her husband's shoulder, and asked softly, "What's wrong, is there anything wrong?" Zhu Di sighed softly and said, "It's a loss to my brother-in-law, ......, madam, didn't you notice anything wrong with him?" When Concubine Xu was not married, she had "NV Zhusheng" in the capital, known as "NV Zhusheng", known as outstanding in learning, wise and smart, how could she not see the strangeness, she was silent for a moment, and said: "The emperor called him to play the right alone, such a big thing, when the prince never asked, he actually avoided talking about it, this is a suspicion." Zhu Di sighed and didn't speak, knowing that her husband was not his wife, Concubine Xu knew that her husband was listening, so she continued: "On the occasion of the new chūn, the emperor is also very busy, the northern Xinjiang has been calm, and there is no war, the emperor summoned Ge Changshi alone, just to ask about the affairs of the northern Xinjiang?" If the emperor is knocking on the side to inquire about the news of the prince, it is normal, and now this reason is ......, the prince wants to be sincere. Zhu Di was silent for a long time, and said sadly: "In this way, the emperor still refuses to let me go, I Zhu Di defended the country on the border, made many military exploits, and was cautious and self-reflective, where did I do anything sorry for him?" He corrected his father's edict to seize my military power, I knew its hypocrisy, and he didn't say a word, he wanted to transfer my three guards to the border, I still agreed, he changed all the officials of the Beiping Military Political and Legal Department, I have no difference, this can't show my humble and respectful meaning? Does he have to be relegated to a commoner and imprisoned? He said that the feudal domains were the root of the calamity of the imperial court, and he was vigorously looking for the fault of his uncles, and he made his brothers the vassal kings again! ”
Zhu Di clenched a pair of iron fists, and his body couldn't help shaking, which was a strong anger.
Concubine Xu suddenly hugged her husband's body tightly from behind, and said sadly: "The prince ............", Zhu Di said desolately: "Since ancient times, the heavenly family has no bones, let alone an uncle and nephew............", "Lord, can we only wait to be killed?" Zhu Di smiled bitterly: "Otherwise, can we still ......", before he finished speaking, he was silent again, and after a long time, he said slowly and resolutely: "Can't sit still!" He patted his wife's hand and stood up suddenly, and Concubine Xu hurriedly asked, "Lord Wang, what are you going to do?" ”
Zhu Di said: "I'll go to Yingshou Temple and meet Master Daoyan." When Concubine Xu heard this, she hurriedly took a big coat and put it on her husband, what did her husband want to do, she didn't ask, she quit him, he was his person, as a wife, the only thing she needed to do was to support her husband when he made a decision, so that he had no worries.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
"Master, Jidi is here."
Zhu Di bowed slightly, and said respectfully.
Monk Daoyan lay on the couch sideways, with one hand on his cheek, his hands slightly closed, motionless.
"Master?" , Zhu Di frowned slightly, raised his voice and said, "Master Daoyan!" Dao Yan still didn't move, Zhu Di was a little surprised, when he was brought in, the novice was still meditating, why did he fall asleep so quickly, and if he fell asleep, he shouldn't have slept so dead, he couldn't wake up?
"Master? Guru! Zhu Di walked over and couldn't help but gently shake Dao Yan's body, Dao Yan still didn't move, but from the blinking of his eyelids and the change in his breathing, Zhu Di understood one thing: he was pretending to be asleep.
"Hehe, in the eyes of the world, Zhu Di is already a dying person, and people outside the master are not exempt from vulgarity. The master rest assured, Zhu Di will not affect the master, and he left. ”
Zhu Di clasped his hands together, bowed deeply, turned around and walked outside the meditation room, just walked to the entrance of Mén, he heard a long laugh behind him, and the monk Daoyan smiled: "Your Highness, please stay!" Zhu Di raised his eyebrows and asked, "What else does the master command?" Monk Daoyan said: "Why can't His Highness wake up the old man?" "Huh? Zhu Di heard what Dao Yan said, and the grief and indignation in his heart couldn't help but be relieved, and he turned around in surprise, and saw Dao Yan sitting cross-legged, with a solemn appearance and a wise smile on his face.
Zhu Di hesitated: "Master...... "What kind of Zen machine is this?" Dao Yan laughed and said, "Your Highness can't wake me up because I'm pretending to be asleep." ”
Zhu Di said suspiciously: "What does the master mean?" Dao Yan smiled and said solemnly: "Your Highness, if you really fall asleep, you will definitely be able to wake him up." But the one who pretends to be asleep, you can never wake up unless he decides to wake up. The only choice you have is: put up with him or not! Zhu Di said wistfully: "The master already knows my intention?" Dao Yan bowed slightly: "Your Highness originally said that he couldn't get sick, but now he suddenly appeared, what else can he do?" Zhu Di sighed, walked over and sat down beside Dao Yan, told Ge Cheng about his return, and said: "In this way, it seems that the emperor will get rid of me and then quickly, I decided: take a desperate gamble and take a risk." ”
Dao Yan jīng Shen is greatly inspired, and the two jīng mangs in his eyes are like electricity, but when you look at it again, he is still sitting there quietly, with the light and dust, as if what he saw just now is just your illusion. Dao Yan said in a deep voice: "Has the prince really decided? It is important to know that once you take this step, there is no way back. Zhu Di clenched his fists and said: "It's decided, besides this, I have no other way but to take a risk!" With Daoyan's concentration and heart, he didn't feel a little nervous, and he asked, "What does Your Highness plan to do?" ”
Zhu Di filtered his thoughts and said slowly: "The emperor and I, although they are monarchs and ministers, are also uncles and nephews. When the emperor was the emperor, he was benevolent and filial piety, famous all over the world, but after ascending the throne, his feelings changed greatly, regardless of the affection of his relatives, and he even used a spicy hand on the feudal domains, although the emperor was jealous of the feudal domains, but there must also be someone who added fuel to the fire, instigated the emperor, the emperor was young, and it was inevitable to be persuaded.
At present, I have no way to retreat, if the emperor does not change his mind, the day when Zhu Di will add his sword and axe is not far away. Therefore, I decided to take my three sons to Beijing with me, cut out my liver and gall, and express my heart to the emperor! At the same time, he directly reprimanded Jiān 佞, hoping to have the effect of the morning bell curtain drum, wake up the emperor, don't be bewitched by the xiǎo people, and poison the uncles again, what does the master think? The Daoyan monk who was sitting upright on the plate had a dark eye, and almost didn't plant his head from the kang, so he drove the crane west and returned to the broad embrace of Shakyamuni.
It's so tricky!
Lao Wei actually had a time to look away, when did His Highness become so humorous
