Chapter 191

On the day of the palace banquet, the leader of the Uliangha begged to be in the limelight.

Xingningbo, who took the lead in shouting the words "Tian Khan", also became the object of envy and hatred of the ministers. The two combined, and the limelight even overtook Xu Zengshou, who snatched the lines.

Kunning Palace soon got the news that the edicts who were given the banquet by the queen knew how to seize the opportunity very well, and all kinds of good words poured out one by one, for fear of being one step slower than others.

The mouth is clever to say a few more words, and the clumsy mouth must also match a few sounds. On this occasion, there is basically no one who does not know each other.

I didn't listen to the palace banquet and was sent to Jinyi Prison on the spot?

Saying something that deserves to be struck by lightning on an inappropriate occasion is the end!

The wife of the king was not qualified to be given a banquet, and his mother sat at the end of the table with several other people of Wupinyi, listening to the praise of the king of Han and the king of Zhao in the palace, and the praise of the Marquis of Wuyang and Xingningbo, but after the praise, she stepped on her son again, and almost gritted her teeth with hatred.

Anger, humiliation, depression, worry.

All kinds of emotions come together, but they can't show it, let alone leave the table without permission.

Her son has already been imprisoned in Jinyi, and if she loses her honor in Kunning Palace, she will cause even greater trouble.

The only thing you can do is to turn a blind eye to the sarcastic gaze of others, and you should not be able to hear the whispers of the few people around you. As long as you survive tonight, as long as you don't invite trouble for your family......

In the same predicament as her, there is also Bing Kefeng to advise the female relatives of the family.

Zhu Di was annoyed by Feng and Wang, and Empress Xu was just as disgusted by the two of them who splashed her son and grandson with dirty water.

It's just that the emperor has already sent the king to give advice, and Feng to give advice is also a grasshopper after the autumn, and Empress Xu will not easily attack their family members again. But the fact that the queen does not do it does not mean that others will not use this to show their "loyalty".

At a palace banquet, Wang Zhiji's mother and Feng Zhiji's daughters were almost roasted on the fire, and they were restless all the time. It wasn't until Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Zhanji came to greet Empress Xu that the attention of everyone in the palace was attracted by the two imperial grandsons, and the situation improved.

But this is only temporary. After all, Feng Zhiji's slander against the prince of Han, and Wang Qiji's impeachment of the King of Han and King Zhao are all fait accomplis.

It is conceivable that Wang will not come out of Jinyi Prison for a day, and the treatment of Feng will not be implemented for a day, and the families of the two will still be ridiculed and tormented in the eyes of others.

If they could, the two Yiren really wanted to disappear from the empress and the imperial grandson immediately.

It's a pity that imagination is imagination after all, and before the palace banquet is over, they must continue to hold on.

Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Zhanji stood together, saluted Empress Xu, and said in unison: "Grandson has seen the imperial grandmother. ”

"Okay." Empress Xu smiled and asked the two of them to get up, gave Zhu Zhanji a seat, and then hugged Zhu Zhanji into her arms like Zhu Di.

Compared with being by Zhu Di's side, Zhu Zhanyan is much more honest.

Maybe it's the relationship of early wisdom, he knows that the imperial grandmother is not in good health, and he can't be by the imperial grandmother's side as he is by the imperial grandfather's side, and he must be honest so that he won't be tired of the imperial grandmother.

The three-headed fat doll clenched its small fists and sat straight still.

But no matter how hard you try, it's like a ball, it's still like a ball.

The edict in the palace praised repeatedly, "The prince of the Han Dynasty is so filial and knowledgeable, and he will definitely be extraordinary in the future." ”

Queen Xu smiled and said: "Don't be overpraised, he is young, I am afraid he can't afford it." ”

Liu Shuren, who spoke, glanced at her mother-in-law, and was secretly happy in her heart, it seemed that she had guessed the queen's thoughts.

Zhu Zhanji sat aside, and when Queen Xu looked over, he lowered his head and didn't say a word.

Empress Xu sighed, "Zhanji, come to the imperial grandmother." ”

What Princess Ping did, how King Ping behaved in front of the domain, Queen Xu knew it clearly. As long as she wants to know, even the Son of Heaven can't hide it from her.

From shock to anger, from sadness to calm.

Empress Xu was disappointed in her daughter-in-law and even more disappointed in her eldest son.

Among the three sons, the Son of Heaven prefers the second son and the third son, but she always strives to make a bowl of water even.

Because Zhu Gaochi is the eldest son, and because Zhu Gaochi is not loved by the Son of Heaven, Queen Xu's concern for the eldest son even exceeds that of the other two sons.

But in the matter of dealing with Princess Ping, Zhu Gaochi chilled Queen Xu.

Remembering that Zhang is his wife, do you remember that she is his mother?

After all, do you still blame yourself?

Empress Xu didn't know, and she didn't want to think deeply.

On the day King Ping left Beijing, Queen Xu suddenly had a high fever, her body was weak, and the decoction in her mouth was so bitter that she couldn't swallow it.

"Son!"

In Kunning Palace, Emperor Yongle was furious and immediately sent someone to arrest Zhu Gaochi back for questioning.

In the end, it was Empress Xu who propped up her sick body and stopped him.

Whether it's intentional or unintentional is no longer important.

She just didn't give birth to this son!

As soon as the words came out, Queen Xu was very calm, Zhu Di was no longer angry on his face, waved away from the palace people, and personally fed Queen Xu medicine.

The jet-black medicinal juice was sprinkled on his body, and he hugged his wife, who had become thin into a handful of bones, and the Yongle Emperor, who was not afraid of bloody wind and rain, finally had red eyes.

The next day, Queen Xu did not mention King Ping again, but just took medicine according to the doctor's instructions, and her condition never recurred.

Already disappointed in her eldest son, Empress Xu made up her mind that she couldn't let her eldest grandson look like his father again.

Benevolence, righteousness and morality, etiquette and filial piety, hanging on the lips all day long, useless, practical action is fundamental. Otherwise, no matter how much you read, it will be in vain.

The education of the eldest grandson can no longer let his parents interfere, and all the companions, palace people, and eunuchs related to Princess Ping have been transferred from Zhu Zhanji's side one by one.

Accompanying Zhu Di for more than 20 years, with Zhu Di from Nanjing to Beiping, and then from Beiping back to Nanjing, Zhu Di's adult three characters and five daughters, except for Princess Changning, whose mother is unknown, are all from Queen Xu.

Just as Queen Ma could persuade Zhu Yuanzhang to put down the butcher's knife back then, as long as Queen Xu did not fall, as long as she sat firmly in the palace, she would not want to set off a storm in the palace.

"In the past, it was the palace's lack of energy and negligence."

Hearing this, Hou Xian's scalp was a little numb.

As long as you are from the Yanwang Hidden Mansion, you will understand what this sentence represents. For some people inside and outside the palace, the good days are coming to an end.

can make Queen Xu "go out of the mountain", and Princess Ping's various "efforts" are not in vain.

Like Chengguo Gong, in the fifth year of Yongle, Empress Xu did not die as in history. But under the careful care of the imperial doctor, he is getting healthier and healthier, and there is basically no problem in living to live with Zhu Di.

No one knows what this change will bring to Zhu Di and even the entire Ming Dynasty, not even Meng.

In the canopy hall, the leader of the Uliangha, who had successfully slapped the dragon's fart, was given to sit, wine, and meat.

According to the law, in the palace feast, there was no place for the beggar to even stand. The only one who can win this honor is the commander of the three guards of Wuliang Ha. However, he made the emperor's dragon heart happy, and the emperor gave him a seat, even if others were dissatisfied, they would not come up at this time.

The lessons of the car ahead are not far away, and if you want to go out of the palace one by one, you will not be invited to drink tea by Jinyiwei, so it is better to be interesting.

The beggar was so excited that his face was red and his hands were shaking.

The leader of the Uliangha, who went to Beijing to pay tribute like him, was given a banquet in the same hall, and he could show off for a few months when he went back, which attracted the envy of everyone. What an honor it is for him to be able to participate in the palace banquet and get wine from the emperor!

If he hadn't been sane, there would have been a high probability that the beggar would have hidden the jug and glass, and the dish plate and two of them, and brought them back to the tribe.

The golden pot and silver cup jade plate, even the big boss is not enough to use the level, all of them are evidence of his participation in the palace banquet!

After three rounds of drinking, Zhu Di was a little drunk, "Gao Xu, Gao Sui, pour wine for the Duke of Chengguo, Wuyanghou!" I'm happy today, all lovers, don't get drunk and don't go home! Change to a big bowl! ”

Zhu Neng and the others applauded, and immediately some palace people removed the wine cup and replaced the big bowl.

The clear wine poured into the bowl, Zhu Di took the lead, Zhu Neng and the others raised their necks, half a bowl of wine was entered, and half a bowl was wet. Wiping the wine from his beard, the monarchs and ministers all smiled heartily, as if they had returned to the years when they went out to the desert and fought against the Northern Yuan Dynasty.

Meng doesn't have such a good amount of wine, one bowl is up to the sky, and two bowls are going to lie down. The crowd knew more or less about how much he had drunk, and after a glass of it, they let him go.

When the middle-aged men drank in big bowls and missed the old days, Meng Zhiji stepped back and seized the time to eat.

The meat dishes are cold and you can't eat them, but the vegetarian dishes are better.

It was impossible to eat like this, Meng put down his chopsticks, turned around and called a eunuch, and gave a few orders.

"Hurry up and send the trouble."

As the words fell, a small piece of silver fell into the sleeve of the eunuch's coat.

is not as rich as Chengguo's public wealth, and he has stepped into the ranks of rich people with half a foot. Sending copper coins to lose a share, even more so to give treasure money, pinching a piece of silver and handing it out, but it is not very distressing.

After all, silver is important, and the stomach is even more important.

"Yes, let's go here, uncle, wait a minute."

The eunuch went down happily, and after a while, he brought back two little eunuchs.

The little eunuch held a golden pot and a porcelain evening in his hand, and the bowl was filled with spiky rice and hot water.

Neither of these is a violation, Meng wants to have no pressure, and the eunuch is just the strength to run an errand.

When the rice and hot water were delivered, Meng directly dialed half of it into the vegetable bowl, soaked it in hot water, regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, picked up his arms and began to eat.

The imperial kitchen is the imperial kitchen in the end, bold and atmospheric!

Ate three bites and bite into two peppers.

If the country is really strong, all the countries come to the court, the emperor is not bad for money, and the imperial dining room is not bad for pepper.

I was pouring water on my teeth, and suddenly I noticed that the surroundings were unusually quiet.

The sound of fighting is gone.

The voice of speech was gone.

Raising his head, including Emperor Yongle, the middle-aged men who were still fighting for wine just now all looked at him stunned, and the six heavenly officials at the two tables next to him also twitched out of the corners of their eyes.

Hot water for rice? Or in front of the emperor?

Dare to do this at the palace banquet, throughout the ages, it can be called unique!

No wonder he has a good relationship with the killing god of Dingguo Gong, and he is really a fierce man!

Meng puffed out his cheeks, ignored the various glances poking at his body, chewed a few times calmly, and swallowed the food in his mouth.

"Your Majesty, Zhao Yuan has a judgment that drinking too much wine hurts the stomach, it is better to use some hot water for food, the minister has personally tested it, Your Majesty can use it with confidence."

Zhao Yuan, who was separated by a few tables, was sentenced to a black line in his head, was he lying down and also shot?

Zhu Di touched the short mustache on his chin, nodded, and put down the wine bowl.

Hou Xian hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, rice or cakes?" Then the slave and maid commanded it. ”

"Not necessarily." Zhu Di directly grabbed the big porcelain bowl on the table, "I can use this bowl." You go and ask Chengguo Gong Wuyang Hou what he wants to use, and send it up as such. ”

"Yes."

Hou Xian received the order, and soon a large bowl of rice and steaming cakes and steamed buns were served.

In addition to the honors, the military generals of Wenchen have not been left behind. Compared with cold dishes and cold wine, it is obviously rice cakes that are more popular.

Don't drink, just eat, such a palace banquet can be regarded as setting a precedent.

The musicians and dancers in the hall almost stumbled on their left foot, and the musicians plucked the wrong two strings.

After eating half a bowl of rice, Zhu Di put down his chopsticks, drank two sips of hot water, looked at Meng, who was obviously not full, and suddenly said, "Xingningbo." ”

"The minister is here."

"Beijing Soldiers and Horses Command Division, you don't care about it for the time being."

What?!

Meng looked up in amazement, is this being masturbated-official?

Because of a bowl of rice?

Chengguo Gong Zhu Neng and Wuyang Hou Xu Zengshou were obviously also surprised, was the Son of Heaven annoyed Xingningbo? It's not like that.

The neighboring civil officials are very excited, and you have today! While excited, he bit the steamed bun and did not abandon it because of the reason for the steamed bun.

Uncle Meng's luck, staring, don't eat if you have the ability!

Watching Lao Tzu's show while eating, I'm not afraid of choking on my throat!

Zhu Di ignored the civil officials who watched the show, raised his hand to stop Xu Zengshou's plea, and continued: "Xingning Bo is erudite and talented, filial piety and uprightness, practicing human feelings, knowing the people's sufferings, not being confined by the world, and acting in many unique ways. The main strategy of the country, etiquette and filial piety, people's livelihood and economy, supplemented by overseas folk customs, things-wind-feelings. ”

With a thunderclap on his head, Meng was stupid, completely stupid.

The prince is less safe?

If he remembers correctly, it seems that his cheap master, Monk Daoyan, is the young master of the crown prince?

Xu Zengshou saw that Meng was stunned and didn't react, so he hurriedly reminded, "Xingningbo, don't you want to thank you?" ”

Looking at Meng who was still straight in his eyes, Zhu Neng sighed, thinking that the Son of Heaven was going to send Xingningbo, but he didn't expect that he would let him give a lecture to the prince of Han!

Although the three princes, three orphans and three protectors of the Yongle Dynasty are all honorary titles, those who are fortunate enough to be awarded such honorary titles are definitely not very human.

Jianwen Dynasty dismissed the three princes and three orphans, omitting not to mention it.

Who are the three princes, three orphans and three guarantees of the Hongwu Dynasty?

Taishi Li Shanchang, Taifu Xu Da, Taibao often meet spring.

The prince and the prince in the three guarantees are the famous blue jade!

Although most of the fierce men did not end well, the credit was real, and it was not possible to make a little false.

How old is Xingningbo? is already ranked among the military attaches of the current dynasty, guarding one side, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a very human minister.

The first-class uncle can only be regarded as the last among the nobles. The governor of the rear army is also known to the governor, and there are also governors above who are pressing. The crown prince is just an honorary title, and he doesn't have much real power at all.

Separately, it is nothing among the courtiers. If it falls on the same person, it's pretty bad. What's more, he is still a guard in Daning, transferred to Beijing, and is still in charge of the official seal.

Generally speaking, like him, the Son of Heaven should have been cold. Emperor Yongle's performance broke the general understanding and traditional concept of everyone, and Meng's official career will obviously continue to be smooth.

The court officials who didn't deal with Meng couldn't help but gasp, what background did Xing Ningbo hide to be so graceful to be so graceful? What did the Son of Heaven mean by what he said before?

Thinking deeply about the meaning of the Son of Heaven, Yang Shiqi and Yang Rong, who had been silent, were shocked.

Ling Xingningbo taught the Han Dynasty prince the strategy of the country, etiquette and filial piety, people's livelihood and economy, and overseas affairs?

The prince of Ping went out of the pavilion to study, and the Son of Heaven only ordered to focus on etiquette and filial piety, and never mentioned the emperor's great training, let alone the strategy of the country!

The prince of the Han Dynasty is still young, but he wants to learn the strategy of the economy and the people's livelihood economy?

Could it be ......

Xie Jin, Huang Huai and others changed their faces suddenly, if they hadn't been pulled by Hu Hui, Xie Jin was afraid that he would lose his temper on the spot.

Emperor Yongle, who dropped the thunder, didn't look at the expressions of the ministers at all, and he didn't need to look at it, the Jinyi guard and the eunuchs in the palace would naturally record the every move of some people and hand them to him.

After Xu Zengshou's reminder, Meng finally came back to his senses, saying that it was fake not to be excited, but thinking that this time the official would completely tie him to Zhu Gaoxu's carriage, he felt a little bottomless in his heart.

After thinking about it, even if the emperor didn't give this order, in the eyes of outsiders, he would have already worn a pair of pants with Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui.

Dwelling on these is nothing but asking for trouble.

recalled the first time I saw Zhu Gaoxu in Kaipingwei, and I couldn't help but sigh.

Who would have thought that they would get to where they are today?

Five years ago, Zhu Gaoxu would never have imagined that one day, he would pull up his trouser legs and plow the fields with military households. Zhu Gaosui also did not think that he would deal with gold, silver and copper coins

Is history playing too much of a joke, or is it a hurricane set off by the butterfly that mistakenly trespasses into history?

Meng straightened his expression and pursed his lips.

Since there is no choice, no more choice.

The chess game has been set, in order to go to the last step, but also to protect himself, Shen Xuan, and his family, he will definitely make a desperate bet and do his best.

If there is an obstacle, God will block and kill God, and Buddha will block and kill Buddha!

"Minister, thank you!"

Meng will not know that his worship is destined to become a turning point in history.

From this moment on, the history of the Ming Dynasty will go to a completely different path, and even the history of the world will be changed because of this.
