Chapter Ninety-Seven: A Change in Attitude

Zhu Hao's number of courtesies is already the maximum number of courtesies that the prince can give to the minister, although Zhu Hao didn't want to do it very much in his heart, but in order to get the help of Zou Yuanbiao and Zhao Nanxing, he still endured it, but while bowing, he secretly cursed in his heart: "A bow, this prince wishes you two an early ascension!" ”

Zhu Hao had such "wishes" for Zou Yuanbiao and Zhao Nanxing in his heart, so he made his heart feel better, but Zou Yuanbiao and Zhao Nanxing, the next words made Zhu Hao's just calm heart again, and he almost scolded.

Zou Yuanbiao, who was more direct among the two, spoke first: "Your Highness, Wechen is curious, you are so keen on the succession to the throne, is it that you covet the throne, you must know that Emperor Taizu's testament has the testament of 'establishing a successor and standing up', so Wechen advises you not to think about anything wrong, and quickly return to the palace to guard filial piety for Emperor Daxing, so as to fulfill the filial piety of the son of man and the foundation of the minister!" ”

As soon as Zou Yuanbiao's words fell, Zhao Nanxing said: "Yuanbiao, what you said is a bit excessive!" This official believes that the five princes are not that kind of people! ”

Zhao Nanxing seemed to accuse Zou Yuanbiao of his words, and after finishing speaking, he looked at Zhu Hao and bowed his hand and said: "Your Highness, Lord Zou's words just now are indeed a bit harsh, but they are also for the good of His Highness, His Highness still returns to the palace as soon as possible, and guards the filial piety of the son of man for the Emperor Daxing, and does his best to be a minister." As for what happened in the Qianqing Palace, it seems that His Royal Highness should not participate in it, so as not to fall into the hands of people in the future! Besides, what should the courtiers do, the courtiers themselves should know that if I go to lobby each other and collude, it is really against the teachings of the sages of the gentleman and the party, and this matter must not be done! Your Highness, please come back! ”

Zhu Hao listened to the words of these two people, one gave himself a blow to the head, and the other first rubbed the place where he was hit by the stick, and asked with concern if it hurt, at this time, he talked about the stick against the same place, and gave himself a stick, Zhu Hao couldn't help but curse in his heart: "TNND, what is this called!" Why don't you just pick a stick? Are you two going to play dead boy? Anything else that can't be lobbied and colluded, and violates the teachings of the sages, it's all nonsense! Your Donglin Party now occupies half of the important positions in the imperial court, and you still don't collude? How do you want to hook up? Can't sleep on a bed? ”

Zhu Hao was indignant in his heart, but there was no good way to persuade these two old stubborn who were like old ladies wrapped in footcloths, smelly and hard, Zhu Hao helplessly looked at Yang Lian who plucked him here, and thought in his heart: "You kid asked Lao Tzu to come here and find these two old gang dishes, but you didn't say a word, Lao Tzu let these two old gang dishes, you looked at me and said a word, almost didn't squeeze into a sandwich, really think Lao Tzu is ham sausage!" It's your turn this time, and then TNND will pretend to be dumb for Lao Tzu, and Lao Tzu will turn around and leave now! Lao Tzu still doesn't believe it, without Zhang Butcher, he will have to eat pigs with hair! ”

Although Yang Lian didn't know Zhu Hao's dissatisfied words in his heart, he understood Zhu Hao's eyes and knew that it was time to speak by himself, so he spoke: "Two seniors, it's like this that the five princes are here today, it is the meaning of the old minister, because of the previous unhappiness, the old minister asked His Royal Highness to find the lower official first, and asked the lower official to take His Royal Highness to find the two adults, and asked the two adults to think carefully, His Royal Highness's proposal!" ”

As soon as Yang Lian's words were finished, Zhu Hao thought in his heart: "This Yang Lian is really not simple, if he is not a friend in the future, he will definitely be a difficult opponent. And when he said this, he cleaned him up and this matter again, so that he would not have a direct conflict with these two old gangsters.

Zhu Hao thought of this and sighed in his heart: "Sure enough, he is a smart person!" It's not easy! ”

As Yang Lian's words fell, Zou Yuanbiao and Zhao Nanxing glanced at each other, their expressions changed, obviously they didn't expect Zhu Hao to find such a tough foreign aid, but after thinking about it carefully, they looked back and found that there was something wrong, and understood that the old man was not going to get involved in this matter, because if the old man wanted to make a move, then there would be nothing to do with the two of them.

After the two of them pondered and understood, because Yang Lian said the old man just now, the two of them looked a little bit, and their hearts that lacked confidence were suddenly full of confidence.

The two looked at each other again, and then they both understood what the other party was thinking, and finally Zou Yuanbiao spoke first: "Yang Lian, it's not the official who said you, you too, why did you come with the five princes just now, and didn't make it clear to the family in the mansion, but after handing over your name first, you said that the five princes are also here, are you afraid that the official will hide from the five princes and not meet him?" What the hell do you have in mind! ”

Zou Yuanbiao clarified the secret meaning of Yang Lian's approach, and then reprimanded Yang Lian, Yang Lian really couldn't refute it, and there was nothing to explain, he couldn't say, "You're right!" I'm just afraid that you won't see the five princes", if you really said that, it would undoubtedly be a way to tear your face, as a smart Yang Lian, he wouldn't do that kind of stupid thing.

Therefore, at this moment, Yang Lian hung his head, not daring to speak, as if he was a child who had done something wrong and was reprimanded by his parents, seeing Yang Lian's attitude, Zou Yuanbiao's vanity rose sharply, so he only snorted coldly, and after warning Yang Lian, he didn't say anything again, and let Yang Lian go.

After Zou Yuanbiao's words were finished, Zhao Nanxing did not fire at Yang Lian again, but looked at Zhu Hao and said: "Fifth prince, there was originally a recommendation from the old minister, I dare not refuse, but this matter is a big matter, please go back to the palace first and wait for news!" When we have a decision, we will let His Highness know! ”

Zhu Hao listened to Zhao Nanxing's words, and knew that they agreed, but to do this, they were unwilling to bring themselves, and wanted to separate themselves, Zhu Hao knew what they were thinking in their hearts, that is, they wanted to monopolize the credit for supporting the new emperor, although Zhu Hao himself had a good relationship with Zhu Youxiao, and after Zhu Youxiao ascended the throne, he would definitely not treat him badly, but Zhu Hao did not want to give more than half of the credit that originally belonged to him to these two old gangs.

Zhu Hao had such an idea in his heart, so naturally he couldn't do what the two of them wanted, he raised his eyebrows and said: "This prince originally thought that the two adults were both ministers of the imperial court, and at this critical juncture, they would definitely be able to put aside their respective prejudices and put the court society first, but today, it seems that this prince is a little wishful thinking!" Since this is the case, then the prince will not bother, after the prince returns to the palace, he ordered to block the palace gate again, the prince does not believe it, these five thousand Janissaries can't deal with a Li Xuanzhi, you adults will wait for good news! ”

As soon as Zhu Hao's words came out, Zou Yuanbiao and Zhao Nanxing instantly changed color, because if Zhu Hao really did this, then at that time, whether it was successful or not, the credit for the new emperor's accession to the throne would not be on their turn, even if Zhu Hao had to ask them for help in the end, then their credit would be greatly reduced, mainly because of the palace gate, they couldn't even enter the palace, originally the two wanted to kick Zhu Hao out, but as soon as Zhu Hao said this, the tickets for the two of them were in Zhu Hao's hands. The two who understood this, naturally immediately succumbed to softness, because it would not work if they did not accept softness, and when the palace gate was really blocked, they would not even have a chance to pick up the bargain.

The two of them understood this in their hearts, so they hurriedly said in unison: "Fifth prince, please stay, this matter must not be!" ”

Zhu Hao naturally would not do such an excesse, if he could really ignore the safety of his eldest brother and coerce Li Xuanzhi by force, he would not leave the palace at all, at this moment he was just making a show, so that the action of leaving after saying it was only turned around, and did not take a step outward.

Zhu Hao listened to the words of the two, then turned around, sighed, and then said in a puzzled tone: "Two adults, do you have any other lofty opinions?" This prince listens to you! ”

Zou Yuanbiao is a straight intestine, he was a little embarrassed about such a backshit, with a smile on his face, and he didn't say a word for a long time in his mouth.

In contrast, Zhao Nanxing's face was much thicker, he didn't care at all, what he just said, and said with a smile on his face at the moment: "Your Highness, don't be so excited!" This Wei Chen thought about it, His Royal Highness is right, at such a critical moment of survival, His Royal Highness came to find the ministers and others, and the ministers should not shirk it, the ministers should contact the courtiers now, and we will go to the Qianqing Palace together, okay? Please also ask Your Highness not to block the palace gate! ”

Zhu Hao said secretly in his heart when he heard this: "This old gang is really for profit, and I don't want his big face at all!" It seems that in this world, in the end, only interests can move people, and the rest is nonsense! ”

Zhu Hao sighed secretly in his heart, remembering the previous shirk of the two, he sincerely wanted to knock the two of them, thinking like this, Zhu Hao said seriously: "This prince still doesn't have to, according to this prince, it is better for this prince to deal with this matter himself, after all, the two adults just said that it is more difficult, this Confucian sage said, 'Do not do to others what you do not want to do to yourself' This prince should also follow the teachings of the sage, and should not force others to be difficult, and force the two adults to do this!" ”

Zou Yuanbiao and Zhao Nanxing are both old and sophisticated characters, where can they not hear it, this is Zhu Hao deliberately beating the two of them, but at this moment they understand that Zhu Hao has the ticket to enter the game in his hand, and Zhu Hao's words have already said this, the two can only rub their hands, laugh together, and look flattering, at this moment, the image of the two of them who have just been a serious decent gentleman has collapsed.
