Xue Fei came to the dining room in the front yard, he really saw Zhu Mingxuan eating, Zhu Mingxuan saw Xue Fei coming in, he said to Xue Fei, "You're here!" Come in, sit, eat? ”

Xue Fei: "Not yet, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to see the emperor with His Highness when I got up early in the morning, so I got up and came without eating, after all, His Highness also has something to do." ”

Zhu Mingxuan: "Since you haven't eaten either, you can also sit down and have some food!" "Actually, Zhu Mingxuan's food before they went up to the court was not very good, after all, they had to stand in the house for a morning.

So Xue Fei and Zhu Mingxuan ate steamed buns and porridge, and they didn't even eat pickles and side dishes, after Xue Fei and the two of them finished eating, the two of them slowly came to the noon gate in a carriage.

At this moment, it was still dark outside, the hazy sky, and the misty fog in the distance was floating in the sky, Xue Fei was sitting in the carriage, he took out a small can, and he said to Zhu Mingxuan: "This is what I brought back from Jiangnan to His Royal Highness, it is ginger ginseng slices, and the prince has a piece of winter in front of him, at least his stomach is not cold." ”

Zhu Mingxuan looked at the small clay pot in Xue Fei's hand, and she said to Xue Fei, "Since you gave it to me, then I will accept it." "Actually, Xue Fei went out and brought back a lot of things this time.

He said to Zhu Mingxuan: "I went out this time and brought back a few Su embroidery clothes for the prince, all of them are your size, and I also asked the embroidery girls to deliberately make them a little older, if the prince is fat, you can change it more in the future." ”

Zhu Mingxuan: "Then I'm welcome, it's almost time, let's go inside." As soon as Xue Fei heard Zhu Mingxuan say this, Xue Fei walked down first, and he helped Zhu Mingxuan down.

Zhu Mingxuan walked in front, Xue Fei respectfully followed behind Zhu Mingxuan, and the ministers standing in front of the noon gate looked at Zhu Mingxuan and Xue Fei, and Fang Yue was also in this team, but he stood in the corner and didn't say anything.

The four cabinet ministers didn't say anything when they looked at Zhu Mingxuan, the key was that Zhu Mingxuan greeted them when Zhu Mingxuan walked by them, and they had to greet Zhu Mingxuan with a smile on their faces, but they were actually scolding people in their hearts.

Zhu Mingxuan took Xue Fei to chat with some talents in the imperial examination in recent years, Xue Fei and they began to stand in line after greeting for a while, and Xue Fei stood in the last row of the military attache team.

"Whoosh! Syllable! The silent whip in the palace began to sound, the noon door slowly opened, and the eunuch inside began to say: "Hundred officials go to court!" The officials standing outside the palace gate began to slowly enter the palace city.

Xue Fei stood in the last row, he didn't enter the council hall, he chose to stay outside and wait for Zhu Mingxuan and them to go down, Xue Fei wanted to follow Zhu Mingxuan to see Zhu Quan.

Inside the council hall, because of the matter of the four cabinet ministers, Zhu Mingxuan waited like the courtiers waiting outside to be summoned, and the voices inside came out intermittently, and Xue Fei couldn't guess what they said.

After a morning, Xue Fei stood outside and made him feel a little unbearable, not to mention the others, he saw that other people's faces were a little frozen and white, at this time it was finally dispersed, Zhu Mingxuan walked at the back, he saw Xue Fei said to him in a wistful tone: "Let's go, I'll take you to see the emperor." ”

Xue Fei looked at Zhu Mingxuan with a weak look, he walked on the road and asked Zhu Mingxuan: "What's wrong with the prince?" Isn't it reprimanded by the emperor? ”

Zhu Mingxuan: "Sort of, this king proposed in the court that the emperor should abolish the positions of the four cabinet ministers, but the emperor did not agree to my proposal, and the emperor reprimanded me in public." ”

Xue Fei: "Actually, I think the emperor is also thinking about the prince, prince, think about it, if the emperor decides on your proposal, then the four cabinet ministers and their subordinates will definitely fight back, then our court will definitely be chaotic, I think some places should be slowly plotted, some places will be cut through the chaos quickly, and specific places will be used in specific methods, and I will meet the emperor with the prince in a while!" ”

Zhu Mingxuan sighed and said, "Forget it, I'll wait for you outside for a while!" Zhu Mingxuan took Xue Fei outside, and he didn't go in.

Xue Fei encouraged Zhu Mingxuan to go in: "Let's go, Lord Wang, the emperor won't say anything." ”

Zhu Mingxuan shook his head, Xue Fei looked at Zhu Mingxuan with a stubborn look, he was helpless, Xue Fei could only go to the upper study first.

After Xue Fei entered inside, he saluted Zhu Quan: "Weichen participates in the emperor, long live the emperor!" ”

Zhu Quan: "Get up!" By the way, what about King Qin? Didn't I come with you? ”

Xue Fei: "The prince is outside, I said to bring the prince in, but the prince said that he was a little embarrassed to see the emperor, so he didn't come in." ”

Zhu Quan said helplessly: "He is this temper, you go and call him in, I have something to tell you two." ”

Xue Fei raised his head and looked at Zhu Quan at this moment, he didn't find any expression on Zhu Quan's face, he could only withdraw from the upper study, Xue Fei walked out of the upper study and he found Zhu Mingxuan.

Xue Fei looked at Zhu Mingxuan and said, "Lord, the emperor told you to go in!" I have something to discuss with you! ”

Zhu Mingxuan listened to what Xue Fei said, he felt that Zhu Quan really had something to discuss with him, so he followed Xue Fei into the upper study.

Zhu Mingxuan walked into the upper study, he was just about to give Zhu Quan luggage, Zhu Quan stopped him, Zhu Quan said to Zhu Mingxuan: "No need! ”

Zhu Quan looked at Zhu Mingxuan's frost-beaten eggplant, and said: "You should know what I mean, but your idea is still a little early, and it's too early to say anything, since you put it forward, I think that since you want to abolish the positions of the four cabinet ministers, why don't you slowly empty their rights?" Actually, this idea is better! ”

Zhu Mingxuan looked at Zhu Quan in surprise, Zhu Quan looked at Zhu Mingxuan like this, he said to Zhu Mingxuan: "Actually, you don't have to look at me like this, I thought earlier than you, but this is the rule set by your grandfather, I can't refute it, I can only change it slowly now, alas!" ”

Zhu Quan looked into the distance, his eyes seemed to be able to pass through this door, through this palace, through this sky, he could see a broader world, he said to Zhu Mingxuan: "Mingxuan, you have to remember, this world is easy to fight, if it is too difficult to defend, you must do some things immediately, otherwise you will regret it when you are old, you know?" ”。

Zhu Mingxuan: "I know what my father said, as for whether I understand it or not, I have to slowly want to understand it, after all, I haven't experienced it." ”

Zhu Quan looked at Xue Fei and said, "Since you are here today, let's tell me why you came!" ”
