Chapter 166

The emperor's son is naturally not a mortal.

I haven't seen it for a few months, and the thickness of Zhu Gaosui's face has obviously reached a new level.

On the 10th day of Meng's arrival in Beijing, Zhu Gaosui had dinner in Xingningbo Mansion for 9 days. On the remaining day, the palace set up a banquet to entertain the envoys of Siyi, the Son of Heaven ordered King Ping and King Zhao to sit together, Zhu Gaosui stayed in the palace all day, and there was no chance to eat, and Xingningbo's mansion was finally cleaned.

Unfortunately, purity is only temporary.

The day after the palace banquet, the distinguished guests came to the door again.

Seeing Zhu Gaosui who came to knock on the door in a hurry, Meng sighed helplessly, held his head, waved his hand, and let the guards go down.

It's just a few meals, he endures!

"What does Your Highness want to eat today, salty or sweet, cake or steamed bun? How many elbows to prepare? ”

Sitting on the Taishi chair, after listening to Meng's words, Zhu Gaosui grinned, "Don't be too troublesome, don't be picky." ”

"......" is less and less of an outsider.

Zhu Gaosui said that he was not a picky eater, but Meng did not dare to be sloppy, so he still summoned his followers and instructed the kitchen to prepare carefully, regardless of others, and the amount of meat dishes must be sufficient. With his understanding of the Zhu family, he put out a table full of vegetarian dishes, and there was no meat dish, and King Zhao definitely lifted the table.

The materials are ready-made, and the kitchen is busy for half an hour, and the uncle is setting the meal.

Looking at the whole plate of heavy elbows, Zhu Gaosui was satisfied, and cocked his thumb, Xingningbo really knew that he was lonely.

Meng Gan laughed twice, "Your Highness use it well." "Pick up the chopsticks, pick up the bowl, eat without sleeping, eat!

The wind swept away, meat and vegetarian dishes were added together, and there was no vegetable soup left, and they were all eaten cleanly.

Meng was unhappy with Zhu Gaosui's behavior of rubbing rice, but he never opened his mouth to pick up people, and always opened the door to welcome him, and it was not for nothing that he was entertained with good dishes and good meals.

First, he did not lack this little food. Second, Zhu Gaosui came to report almost every day and helped him block a lot of trouble. The greeting posts sent to the door, if you don't want to see them, you can use King Zhao's excuse to push them away. Third, the emperor summoned him back to Beijing, and he has not announced his audience so far, if it weren't for Zhu Gaosui's news in three days, he would have no bottom in his heart.

After all, the emperor only issued an edict to recall, not to say whether it was a reward or a punishment.

Daning's 1,500 frontier troops were still stationed in the suburbs, building camps on the spot, digging shallow trenches, tents for accompanying troops, iron pots for cooking, military rations and extravagant spices, all of which attracted the attention of the defenders of the capital.

Three meals a day, two dry and one thin, three days to open the meat, the taste of the big pot of stewed meat, fragrant for ten miles.

The Ouchi guards and the governor's mansion of the five armies all stared.

The twenty-six guards of the Son of Heaven, the starting point of the Han generals is the highest, followed by the standard-bearer guard, and again the Jinwuwei, Yulinwei, and Jinyiwei, among which there are many children of noble and high-ranking officials, and when they are in the camp, they do not see such a high-standard treatment.

There is naturally no shortage of food, but the spices imported from the ocean and the medicines that have never been seen in Beijing are absolutely rare.

Isn't it that the border is bitterly cold, and it is not easy for the border army to settle in the fields, and the capital transports grain by boat division every year, and the border army still uses sorghum cakes and buckwheat noodles to satisfy hunger?

Now the border troops brought to the capital by Guanxing Ningbo are from thousands to hundreds, from general banners to small flags, from cavalry to foot soldiers, all of them are tall and mighty, and they can be called warriors!

Can't eat enough to be strong like this?

What's more, Emperor Tai-Zugao set an order, and the border army and the soldiers of various guards regularly entered Beijing to conduct drills, accept the emperor's review, and defend Nanjing. In the first year of Yongle, what was the Daning border army like, Jingwei still remembers it vividly, but in three years, there has been such a change?

Daning Dusi's money, is it used for the military man?

Totally unreasonable.

This incident not only attracted the attention of Jingwei, but also attracted the attention of the court.

First the six departments, then the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the six sections, successively sent people to the suburbs to investigate the situation, and more than ninety percent of them returned in vain. Often a few dozen meters away from the barracks, they were discovered by the guard posts and then chased away.

"Military-matter-heavy-ground, it is forbidden to approach, and violators will be dealt with by military law!"

There are many times, and the board can't be beaten away, and the soldiers are overwhelmed, so they simply set up signs around the camp, the writing is not very good-looking, but the meaning is very clear, who dares to get closer, don't blame Lao Tzu's fist for being unkind!

When Yu Shi heard about it, he scoffed at it and personally took a sedan chair to the suburbs, not believing that these soldiers dared to drive him away.

In fact, the military man really dared.

Not only rushed, but also almost beaten.

X's speech officer, is he illiterate? The sign is standing here, and there are stone beads in the eye sockets?

"Wait, wait, wait......"

Yushi, who took the lead, was so angry that smoke rose above his head, his lips trembled, and he couldn't say a complete sentence.

The military man clenched his fists, took out a carbon strip from his arms, added another sentence to the brand, and nodded hard, see no, those who have not received the express order of the imperial court are not allowed to approach the barracks! Dare to pretend to be a court official, and the mace is waiting!

While writing, he squinted at the imperial history who had not left yet, and almost crooked the other party's nose.

The border army that has been stationed in the border fortress all the year round and clashed with the Tartars is not easy to provoke.

I can't argue with it, and I don't have that kind of thought, I have a clear gun and a knife, and by the way, I want to greet the eighteenth generation of the ancestors who find faults, which is the style of the masters.

It doesn't matter who comes, as long as you occupy the word "reason", you can also understand it in front of the Son of Heaven.

Bullying you?

Lao Tzu will bully you, what! If you are not convinced, knock on the drum!

The military Han suggested that the official beat the drum, which was the first time since the founding of the national dynasty, and it was the only case that there were several previous dynasties.

It's a miracle.

Yushi walked away in embarrassment, with an iron face.

In the final analysis, he did not pay attention to the trespass in the barracks without an order, and there was nowhere to cry out for injustice if he was beaten. Since he has been engaged in the profession of a speech official, it is not that he has never dealt with military men, and it is the first time he has encountered such a difficult one.

Thinking of the brand that can make people angry, his teeth are creaking, and the military man is actually literate, which is simply insulting and ridiculous! It is even more unreasonable to insult civil officials!

This must be the instruction of Xingningbo, and when he discusses it with his colleagues, he must participate in a book!

Yushi's original intention was to find out the truth that the Daning border army was so wealthy, and that it had such financial resources to raise the army, so dare to say that the Dusi Yamen was not corrupted-accepted-bribed?

After this incident, he decided to make a reform, and jointly impeached Xing Ningbo with two or three colleagues for his reckless behavior and contempt for the court officials. The evidence is conclusive, and he cannot deny it.

I haven't been able to pour this ginseng a few times before, and this time I can't easily expose it!

Thinking of this, Yushi didn't take a sedan chair, picked up the hem of his clothes, and walked all the way, with a sneer on his face, he already had a belly case.

When the imperial history was gone, the military man picked up the sign and turned around and returned to the camp.

Is it true that he is a fool, and the evidence is left here, and the handle is used as a handle for those who find fault?

Huotoujun said that today's stew is short of firewood, and this piece is just right.

I have long heard that these Jingguan and Uncle do not deal with each other, and if there is nothing to do to trouble the uncle, if you are not worried that it will be difficult to clean up the life, if you come, simply don't go back.

Thinking of this, the eyes under the thick eyebrows flashed with a touch of killing intent in an instant.

Meng did not go to the court, and he could not refute the impeachment of the imperial history, but Zhu Gaosui said few good things for the Daning border army in the court.

Daning Dusi is corrupt-dirty-bribed?

Saw it with your own eyes? Is there any evidence? Just because the food of the military is good?

Yushi jumped high, "This is not empirical evidence? ”

Zhu Gaosui sneered, "I'm really greedy, will you clearly grab pigtails for people?" What is the picture, Chen Yushi might as well tell Xiao Wang about it. ”

Daning is rich, it is not a secret in the DPRK.

Daning is the emperor's money bag, but a considerable number of courtiers do not know it.

After all, it is fair and honest to pay taxes to the household department, and to pay money to the emperor's inner treasury, you must always find some reasons in private, otherwise, the emperor's face will not look good.

Yushi thought he had grabbed Daning's handle, but he didn't know that he was teasing the tiger's beard.

Zhu Di is the emperor immediately, and he knows that it is not easy to lead the troops. It is also known that Daning has improved the treatment of the border army and played the banner of the Son of Heaven.

According to the note handed over by the Jinyi guard, Daning Dusi said to the border army that he could eat three meals a day and occasionally open meat, all of which were instructed by the emperor.

"Daning is located in the border fortress, and the opposite side of the border army is the Tartars, how can you fight with the Tartars if you don't have enough?" Zhu Gaosui said loudly, "You are far away in the prosperous land of Jinling, in the land of fat and rice, how do you know the suffering of the border army?!" ”

Yushi wanted to argue, but Zhu Gaosui didn't give him a chance at all.

"Alone in the fiefdom, the same food is military rations! Steamed buns with two noodles, a big bowl of stew, and one meat for three days, is this good? As far as Lone knows, in your family, not to mention three meals, it is also a meal of white rice and white wheat, and Lone can't eat it when he is in the north! Could it be that you are human beings, and the border army and lonely are livestock?! ”

Yushi was dumbfounded, and he didn't dare to nod until he died.

Zhu Di and Zhu Gaochi coughed together, even if it was a metaphor, it couldn't be compared like this, right?

Speaking of later, Zhu Gaosui put aside Sven and said everything he wanted to say.

Off color? He was rude and bit him!

Yu Shi trembled, Zhu Di and Zhu Gaochi choked on saliva.

"The steamed buns that can't be eaten, Gu Du ordered to keep them, and eat them again at the next meal. Lone is a prince, it doesn't have to be like this, just because Lone knows that it is not easy to grow food! Lone's second brother personally went to the fields to farm, went into battle to lead the troops, and went out to patrol the north, and the food was worse than Lone. In the early years, Jing was difficult, and his father led the troops, how could it not be so! It's just that if you let the military man eat a few full meals and eat a few meals of meat, you will be impeached? Without the hard work of the military and the soldiers, can you be as high as the temple? Can you dress and eat food and talk eloquently? ”

"Lone words are here, the military rations and clothing of the Daning border army are all deserved, and there is nothing wrong with it. Not only Daning, Kaiyuan, Guangning, Liaodong, Xuanfu, Shuntian Bafu, Gansu Ningxia, are all like this! ”

"Xuanfu is the fief of the lonely brother, and Kaiyuan is the fief of the lonely, does Chen Yushi also want to participate in the lonely-greedy-filthy-crime? If so, wait alone! ”

There was a sound on the ground, and the aftermath echoed in the temple.

The official has the responsibility of satirizing the prince and the prince - greed-abuse-cruelty-violence, but it is by no means the current situation.

Zhu Gaosui directed all the firepower to himself, tied the northern border troops together, and put them in a pocket.

How can the impeachment of the Daning border army show your uprightness and kill all the border towns in the northern frontier, you are the real heroes!

By the way, two princes, several vassal kings, the Duke of Dingguo and the Duke of Wei cannot be left behind. The emperor's own son, godson, brother, brother-in-law, all in one pot, the real name will remain in the annals of history, and the name will be immortal!

Regarding Zhu Gaosui's nonsense, Zhu Di was first angry, then relieved, and finally turned his head sideways and continued to cough.

If it weren't for the wrong occasion, the Yongle Emperor of the Ming Dynasty would definitely pat the dragon chair and laugh happily, okay, this is Lao Tzu's species!

Compared with Zhu Gaosui, Zhu Gaochi, who was in the same court, was too silent. Whether it was an official attack, or King Zhao's sarcasm, he didn't see him speak.

In general, such a performance is not a good thing. But in Zhu Di's view, it is related to the stability of the border plug and the clear dispute between right and wrong, and he is still silent, which really disappoints him.

Is it too careful, or is it unwilling to offend Wenchen?

The controversy continues, and it is clear that Zhu Gaosui has an absolute advantage.

The official is upright and upright, and after all, he gets the salary of the old Zhu family.

Although Emperor Yongle did not say anything, he clearly supported his son and continued to fight, but he may not be able to win.

During the period of the emperor's grandson, the ministers could continue to work hard, but now, the good times have long passed, and they really annoyed the one on the dragon chair, and they have to be sent to the army if they don't go to prison.

Obviously he wanted to defeat Daning Dusi, how could it become a verbal confrontation with King Zhao?

I want to change the topic, but it is very difficult.

Hard-nosed to tear it open, King Zhao simply threw up his sleeves and cried.

Courtiers will also cry, the official likes to use this trick the most, and the prince and prince cry in the palace, what kind of system is this?

Zhu Gaosui doesn't care about this, anyway, he is the emperor's son, and in the Fengtian Palace, except for his father and eldest brother, he is the biggest.

While crying, Zhu Gaosui told about the hardships of the border guards, the hard work of the border army, and the lack of food for the border people.

"Father, you don't know...... Erchen bitter wow......"

Zhu Di didn't laugh, neither did he scold, pinched his forehead, waved his hand, and retreated.

The martial minister of the right class retreated from the hall, and when he left, he did not forget to hold his fist at Zhu Gaosui and cocked his thumb, Your Highness, good job! Well done! Admire!

Zuoban Wenchen also withdrew in order, and Chen Yushi, who was severely hit by Zhu Gaosui, was almost erected out of Fengtian Hall by his colleagues.

The courtiers were gone, Zhu Di stepped down from the dragon chair and kicked Zhu Gaosui, "Okay, everyone is gone." ”

Zhu Gaosui continued to cry.

Zhu Dihu was stunned, he couldn't hold back in the end, kicked over, and burst into a foul mouth, "Stinky boy, who did you learn from, get me up!" ”

Zhu Gaosui rolled around and stood up, "Father." ”

"Humph!"

"Father, the sons and daughters can't help it, this group of ...... who just eat people and don't do things"

"Huh?" Zhu Di frowned and glared at his son, this group of people who don't do personnel were appointed by him.

Zhu Gaosui smiled, slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue!

Zhu Di stopped humming, and flicked the sleeves of his robe, "How often do you go to Xingningbo Mansion these days?" ”

"Back to my father, the Xingning Bo family has a good cook."

"The meal I gave you is not used?"

"Naturally, it is good from my father."

"Alright." Zhu Di didn't plan to continue to detour with his son, "You go to Xingningbo's Mansion to spread my message, and tomorrow, Xingningbo will enter the Hajj to see you." ”

"The retainers obey." Zhu Gaosui's eyes rolled, "Father, the son's breakfast and lunch are useless." ”

"Get out! Where to go! ”

"Yes!"

So, Zhu Gaosui left the palace and went to Meng's house to eat.

Zhu Di grinded his teeth, did not look back, and said to Zhu Gaochi, who was still in the hall: "Come with me." ”

Zhu Gaochi responded, "Yes." ”

looked at the tall back of his father and wiped a handful of tears.

The younger brother made his father angry, why was he the one who got hurt?

In Xingningbo's mansion, Zhu Gaosui's eyebrows danced, and he spoke heartily, and at the end, he looked at Meng with his eyes, as if to say, how is Xiao Wang performing, hero, right?

Meng's expression was blank, and he didn't say a word for a long time.

Actually, he didn't sleep well last night and kept dreaming, right?

"Why didn't Xingningbo speak?"

Continue Mu Ran, "Minister...... Speechless. ”

"Admire Lonely?"

Clapped his face, "Your Highness is wise." ”

Zhu Gaosui raised his head, well, that's exactly how it should be.

Meng turned his head, covered his face, and lied, which would really make people feel ashamed.

However, after Zhu Gaosuishen's stroke, I believe that no one dares to trouble Daning easily, and the effect is much more useful than Meng sharpening his head.

Knowing this, I should have asked Zhu Gaosui for help earlier, maybe I could avoid more trouble.

When the lamp was in hand, Zhu Gaosui left the Bofu, Meng did not rest, but sat down at the table, picked up the pen, and wrote and painted for a while.

King Zhao had already revealed that the emperor was very interested in his firearms team, and it should be right to meet him tomorrow and prepare in advance.

The lights in the wing room remained on until late at night, when they were turned off at the beginning of the night.

After sleeping for less than an hour, Meng was called up again, simply had breakfast, changed into court clothes, and walked out of the Bofu.

The sky has not yet dawned, and the tortoiseshell cicadas on the crown of the seven beams are faintly glowing.

Meng turned over and got on the horse, and the guards led the way in front, and when there were low-grade people, they all turned sideways to give way.

Sitting on the horse's back, Meng grasped the Chao Wat, pursed his lips, kicked the horse's belly, and sped up.

In Daning City, he didn't realize it, but when he arrived in Nanjing, he really felt that he had been included in the first echelon of the martial arts class. From the fact that the governor of Yipin knows that even in the capital, he can take a few steps sideways.

In front of the Fengtian Gate, Meng dismounted, took out the waist card, and looked up to see an acquaintance.

The amount of foot heads, Baoxiang flower skirts, copper sunflower belts, silk pattern boots, embroidered spring knives, is the commander of the Jinyi Guard, Yang Duo.

I haven't seen you for a long time, and my appearance hasn't changed much, and I still feel strange.

Approaching, Meng twisted his eyebrows slightly, and Yang Duo felt as if it was even colder. is different from Shen Xuan's coldness, with a yin-cold-aura, which makes people unconsciously want to avoid it.

There were still three steps away from Meng, Yang Duo stood still, standing sideways and clenching his fists, "Xingning Bo'an is fine." ”

Meng returned the salute, did not hold his fists, only bowed his head, "Yang commanded well." ”

The rank of the governor is higher than that of the commander of the Jinyi Guard, but the authority is different, that is, the governor of the five armies, and he will be polite when he sees Yang Duo.

After checking the waist card, Jinyiwei got out of the way, Meng Mai entered Fengtianmen, and when he crossed the Jinshui Bridge, for some reason, he stopped, turned back sideways, and looked behind him.

In the morning light, Yang Duo stood quietly in place, handsome in brocade robe, like a gorgeous statue, without a trace of popularity.

It's a delusion, right?

Meng turned around, put aside the thoughts that had arisen by chance, put them into the ranks of the martial ministers, and continued to walk forward.

The author has something to say: Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!
