Zhu Zhanji took Zhu Di's big hand, walked all the way, and said all the way: "I really don't blame my father for this, my father got up very early and rushed to the palace to arrange the welcome, you see, there is a big banquet in the palace, so many civil and military ministers, and so many foreign envoys, is there a little chaos?" Daddy confirmed the matters in the palace, and the time to meet the imperial grandfather was quite early, but there was an accident on the way, and it was also a coincidence, we were in a hurry, and the imperial grandfather arrived earlier......"

Zhu Di knew that he was talking about his father, but he was not annoyed, he asked a lot more questions, and figured out the ins and outs of the matter, so he said: "You little ghost, you came back with the imperial grandfather, grandpa doesn't know these things, how did you know?" ”

Zhu Zhanji said: "The emperor's grandfather gave a banquet to hundreds of officials, and the grandson went back to the palace to visit his mother, and his mother told me." ”

Zhu Di snorted and said, "You kid, forget it this time." Grandpa loves you, you can't be pampered and arrogant, today is not the father teaching the son, but the father teaching the courtiers, you must not interfere in the future! ”

Zhu Zhanji pursed his lips and said: "The emperor's grandfather once taught his grandson that there are two troubles for the master: Ren Xian, then the minister will take advantage of the virtuous to rob his king; If you act in vain, you will be frustrated. Therefore, for the monarch, joy and anger are invisible, like a sharp weapon of the country, and it is not easy to show it to others, but why is the emperor's grandfather blowing his beard and glaring at his eyes today, so it is not scary! ”

Zhu Di was silent for a moment, smiled lightly, and said: "Grandson, grandpa taught you that joy and anger are invisible, not so that you have forbidden temperament, no joy and no anger, but whether you like it or not, let the courtiers know that you are happy, and whether you are angry or not, whether you let the courtiers know that you are angry, understand?" Buddhism talks about no thoughts, no appearance, no dwelling, you see that now the Buddha Shakyamuni treasure is solemn, you naturally don't know whether he is happy or angry, but in the future Buddha Maitreya Buddha often smiles, do you know that he is happy or angry? ”

Zhu Zhanji blinked. He is young, although he is smart, Zhu Di's words full of deep meaning, but he can't understand them......

It was evening when Xia Xun came back from the court, but he didn't sleep when he returned home, and after taking a bath, he went into the study, holding an idle book, and looked at it for a while. Suddenly. The window lattice knocked, Xia Xun perked up, and hurriedly said: "Come in!" ”

Xu Jiang flashed in. Hugging his fists, he said: "Guogong! ”

Xia Xun hurriedly asked, "What's the situation?" ”

Xu Jiang hurriedly said what happened in the palace today, Xia Xun let out a long breath, and said happily: "The position of the crown prince seems to be kept." As long as the emperor does not have the heart to abolish the reserve. Nothing is important, everything still has room to maneuver. ”

Xu Jiang said: "Guogong, it's just a little late, the emperor has ordered the prince to go back to the palace to think about it, is this matter over?" ”

Xia Xun shook his head slightly, he paced to the window, and reached out to push the window open. Looking at the gloomy sky outside the window, he said in a deep voice: "The thunder has been brewing for so long, how can it not be split?" ”

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

The next morning, Celine's water broke. Seeing that the signs of production have been so obvious, the house is busy up and down, Xia Xun can't help, only in the hall to listen to the news, but from morning to noon, Xi Lin is not producing, Xia Xun is in a mess, there is nothing to do. A lieutenant came to the mansion and passed on the emperor's message. Tell him to enter the palace after noon.

Xia Xun has entered the palace many times, and it used to be as natural as going home. It's hard to have a time when you're apprehensive, but this time I have a feeling of unpredictable fortune and misfortune. In the afternoon, it was estimated that it was almost time for the emperor to take a nap, and Xia Xun saw that Xilin was still not born, so he had to ask his family to take care of him and enter the palace by himself.

In the palace, only Zhu Di was the only one to review the recital, and when he saw him coming, he put down the Zhu pen and asked someone to give him a seat, everything was as usual, and he couldn't see the slightest abnormality, and Xia Xun was even more worried in his heart.

After the waiter served tea, Zhu Di said: "I plan to summon the envoys of Timur and Japan respectively, you have participated in the affairs of these two places, understand them in detail, how to treat them, you must have a case." ”

Xia Xun just picked up the tea, put it down again, and said solemnly: "Yes!" Regarding the purpose of the envoys of the two countries to go to Beijing to pay tribute, the emperor already knew it, and he also had a strategy to deal with it. If the emperor wants to consult the minister's opinion, the minister means: both countries are pulled, both sides are pulled, one comes openly, and the other comes secretly! ”

"Oh? What do you mean by that? ”

Xia Xun explained: "On the Japanese side, it is naturally bright and dark, secretly providing help to Houguishan through coastal merchants, but Mingli needs the emperor's explicit support for Hou Komatsu. Of course, regarding Ashikaga Yoshimitsu's family affairs, you can't support it at both ends, that Ashikaga Yoshinori has always been hostile to my Daming, so we must support Ashikaga Yoshimitsu's biological son Ashikaga Yoshitsu and knock Ashikaga Yoshitoshi from the position of the general of the expedition! When necessary, you might as well give military support at the request of Ashikaga Yoshimitsu! ”

These words seemed to be very popular with Zhu Di, he stroked his beard and nodded slowly.

Xia Xun said again: "As for the Timurid Empire, you can't use the dark one, the sky is high and the road is far away, and the emperor's influence on the country is limited. ”

Zhu Di frowned slightly and said: "There is no compatibility between them, Anken agrees?" ”

Xia Xun said: "If you don't agree, it's equivalent to pushing Daming to the opponent's side, how can they not agree?" Can the emperor still expect to be grateful for his kindness and make them willingly submit to the Ming Dynasty. Timur's appointed prince is dead, neither of them is the rightful heir to the country, and this alone allows His Majesty to tease them. Don't let the east wind overwhelm the west wind, and don't let the west wind overwhelm the east wind, so that the emperor can reap the benefits of the fisherman! ”

Zhu Di chewed this sentence carefully and said lightly: "Okay! It is good not to let the east wind overwhelm the west wind, nor let the west wind overwhelm the east wind, so as to reap the benefits of the fisherman! ”

Xia Xun coughed twice and said: "Of course, this is also my Ming Dynasty under the governance of the emperor, the wind and rain are smooth, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and I have strong strength, so we can take advantage of the contradictions within the Timurid country and Japan, as well as the contradictions between Tatar and Warat, divide and rule!" ”

Zhu Di glanced at Xia Xun fixedly, and suddenly asked: "You were assassinated when you met with the Moro envoy of the Timurid State at Xuanwu Lake, and this case is still under investigation, Wen Xuan, I know that you are alert, in your opinion, the assassin who boarded the ship that day will really be the person sent by the envoy of the Timurid State?" ”

Xia Xun asked rhetorically: "I don't know what the emperor thinks about this matter?" ”

Zhu Di said: "Judging from the situation I have now, it can be said that there are many doubts. Before and after the black wound entered my Ming Dynasty, would he send some other assassins to accompany him secretly? What is their purpose? If it was to assassinate Moro, they fought openly and secretly along the way, and they would have killed them long ago if they could, and after entering my Ming capital, the chance of success was extremely slim, and they still dared to do it? Fantastic. In particular, Shaharu's current strength is looming above the Sultan of Hari, and they have a better hope of gaining my recognition than Moro, so why should they take such a risk in the capital to provoke me? ”

Xia Xun said: "The emperor is Mingjian." The minister also felt that there was something strange about it, and it would be unreasonable to say that this matter was indeed owned by Wu Shu. The reason why the Moro envoy insisted that it was the wound was self-evident, and it was beneficial for him to win the recognition of my great knowledge, but we must find out clearly. It's just that the minister was able to drink a few more glasses, and he was poisoned during the banquet, so he fled for his life in a panic, and he didn't know much about the situation of the assassins, and it was not easy to figure out where they came from.

Master Ji Gang is in charge of Jinyiwei and is resourceful, and since the case is in his hands, it is expected that the truth will eventually be revealed, and the minister does not dare to speculate. The emperor has a lot of opportunities and is busy with state affairs, so don't worry about these things anymore, and at the moment he still takes appeasing the envoys of Timur and Japan as the first priority! ”

Zhu Di smiled faintly and said, "I know, your injuries have not healed, go back and recuperate!" ”

Xia Xun hurriedly got up: "Yes, the minister retires!" ”

Zhu Di looked at Xia Xun's stumbling back steadily, and only then did the figure completely disappear at the door of the main hall before he slowly withdrew his deep gaze, and a faint look of contemplation appeared. At this time, Mu Si tiptoed in and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the subordinate officials of the East Palace have already brought it!" ”

Zhu Di's expression was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Leave Yang Pu and Jin Zhong behind, and the rest of them will be sent to the edict prison to be participated!" ”

After a while, Yang Pu and Jin Zhong were brought into the palace.

If the emperor doesn't want to be punished, just condemn a few words, if the emperor wants to deal with it, this crime can make a big fuss.

As mentioned above, the vassal king is guilty, unless he is guilty of treason, he will not be punished easily, and naturally someone will suffer on his behalf, and the person who has received this generation of vassal kings is the chief history of the palace, and the main responsibility of the long history is to carry the black pot. So what about the prince's mistakes? Naturally, it should be the subordinate officials of the East Palace who should take the bag.

Yesterday, the prince was a little late, and an official impeached him early this morning, and when Zhu Di saw the impeachment recital, he immediately approved the word "quasi" without hesitation, and immediately arrested a group of subordinate officials in the East Palace. Because he had a morning meeting, he brought people in. The two were brought to the palace, knelt down to see the driver, Ji Gang straightened his chest, crossed his hands and saluted, and said loudly: "The ministers are edicted, and the subordinate officials of the East Palace are arrested!" ”

Zhu Di's face sank, and he shouted: "Yang Pu, Jin Zhong, I ordered you to assist the prince, you don't teach the prince the way of Jingguo and Weizheng, just to please the prince, blindly flattering and conniving, causing the prince to slack." When I returned from Beijing, I had already arrived in Beijing with a will, and the emperor's relatives, princes and princes, and the Manchu Dynasty were all civil and military, and fifteen foreign envoys were present. ”

As soon as Jin Yiwei came to get people, Yang Pu knew that the emperor was going to make a big fuss about the East Palace, and he knew that it was in vain to justify it at this time, but he still had to say what he had to say, and now he must do his best to protect the prince, as long as the prince can keep it, they, the subordinate officials of the East Palace, will have a chance to see the light of day again, if even the prince falls, they will have no chance except for the old death in prison.

As soon as he thought of this, Yang Pu immediately knelt down, kowtowed, and said, "The old minister is guilty, but the prince is not guilty!" ”

Friends, after reading the recommended votes, go again, smooth and slippery, long live sleeping naked!.
