"Queen Mother, Queen Mother, save Mr. Fang!"

Queen Ma Hui, who was splashing ink, was startled, hurriedly threw down her pen, and leaned over to help her crying son, Zhu Wenkui: "Kui'er, what's wrong?" Come, sit down, and tell the queen mother, what is going on? ”

Mr. Fang...... Mr. Fang was reprimanded! ”

"Fang Xiaoru, belittled? Where did it go? ”

Ma Hui's face changed, but she didn't mess up, but waved her hand around, and said, "You all go down!" ”

"Yes!"

After everyone retreated, Ma Hui took the teacup on the table and handed it to his son: "Drink some water first, and talk slowly, the sky can't fall!" ”

At this moment, Zhu Wenkui finally woke up, he wiped his tears, took the teacup, drank two sips, and then put it on the table: "Queen Mother, something happened!" ”

"What the hell is going on?"

Ma Hui was a little anxious.

Maybe it happened suddenly, Zhu Wenkui was a little shocked, so the narrative was a little long-winded, and it took Ma Hui a long time to understand what happened.

This morning, Zhu Wenkui was called over by the emperor to talk about some trivial matters of court and politics, and at the end of the conversation, Zhu Wenkui felt that his father was a little unhappy, but he didn't think much about it.

After chatting for about an hour and a half, the emperor asked him to go back, and he returned to Zhan Shifu to continue his studies.

At about eleven o'clock, Liu Zhen arrived at Zhan Shifu and brought the emperor's holy decree, and Zhan Shifu immediately became overturned.

Zhan Shifang Xiaoru was relegated to Haidong Prefecture as a professor.

Shao Zhan Shi Yang Pu was relegated to Rehe and served as the prefect of Chengde.

Licheng Hou Shengyong no longer served as a guest of the crown prince, and his position was replaced by Fu Zhong, the Duke of Yingguo, with four staff officers from the military attache of the guard.

Yang Pu was replaced by Jin Youzi, the secretary and supervisor, and Fang Xiaoru was replaced by Qi Tai, the secretary of the Ministry of War.

Zhu Wenkui was shocked and ran to the Qianqing Palace to beg for help, but was severely reprimanded by the emperor, and he had to just ask for help as if his mother was asking for help.

......

"That's right,"

Ma Hui was also surprised to hear her son's narration, but she quickly grasped the key to the question: "Why is your father unhappy?" ”

"Erchen doesn't know,"

Zhu Wenkui thought about it, shook his head again, and finally had a flash of inspiration and said, "It may be a matter of Mobei!" ”

"What's wrong with Mobei?"

"My father wants to send troops to sweep Mobei, and my son thinks it's inappropriate."

"Why?"

"Erchen thinks that this violates the grandfather's "Emperor Ming Ancestral Training", Mobei is bitter cold, and I can't keep it, so why waste money, food, and troops? Erchen thought that this was a reckless force. ”

"Hmm,"

Ma Hui had a thoughtful expression on her face, and after a long while, she said, "Then what is the reason for derogating Mr. Fang?" ”

"Arbitrarily arrogant, vainly talking about military affairs, eating the ancients, and teaching in no way, that's roughly it!"

"Oh, then you go to the Qianqing Palace, how did your father reprimand you?"

"Erchen doesn't remember very well,"

Zhu Wenkui pondered for a long time before he said: "The son only remembers that the father and the emperor want the son to pay attention to practical things and decorate the vanity. ”

Speaking of this, Zhu Wenkui seemed to remember something, looked up at Ma Hui, and then lowered his head again, and said: "Two days ago, my father once called my son to the Qianqing Palace and admonished him, but my father didn't allow my son to tell others at that time, so my son didn't tell his mother. ”

"Don't let me say?"

Ma Hui hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Does it matter?" ”

"Nothing matters!"

Zhu Wenkui thought about it and said it in a low voice.

After Ma Hui listened, she sat on the chair, her face pale, and she was speechless for a long time.

"Queen Mother, what's wrong with you?"

Finding his mother's strange appearance, Zhu Wenkui was a little nervous, leaned forward, and asked in a low voice.

Ma Hui raised her head, saw her panicked son, raised her hand to take the towel, wiped her son's face, then got up and walked to the door, ordered everyone to take twenty steps back, and then returned to their seats.

"Kui'er, the queen mother is roughly clear, what do you want the queen mother to help you?"

"Queen Mother, Erchen hopes that you can go and ask your father to let Mr. Fang come back."

"Why?"

"Erchen likes to listen to Mr. Fang's lectures."

Ma Hui was silent for a while, then raised her head, stared into her son's eyes, and said softly, "Kui'er, this is impossible. ”

"Queen Mother, don't even you want to help me?"

Zhu Wenkui's eyes welled up with tears.

"It's not that the queen mother is unwilling to help you, but because the queen mother knows that your father will not change his mind."

"Why? Why does he hate Mr. Fang so much? Do you want to exile him to an island? ”

"Don't talk nonsense, he's your father!"

Ma Huiliu raised her eyebrows, very angry, but at the same time she lowered her voice, her eyes glancing around, as if she was afraid that others would hear.

"Do you know about Mr. Fang's teacher Song Lian?"

"Know,"

Zhu Wenkui bowed his head and said, "He is the teacher of Emperor Xingzong, the grandfather of his son!" ”

"Do you know how he died?"

"Died because Hu Weiyong was involved in the rebellion."

"The queen mother thinks no, his situation should be very similar to Fang Xiaoru's current situation!"

"What?"

"In the eyes of Emperor Taizu, Emperor Xingzong is too benevolent, and the root lies in these teachers, so he took the opportunity to dispose of it!"

"But, Mr. Fang—"

"In the eyes of your father, you are the former Emperor Xingzong, and Fang Xiaoru is the former Song Lian."

"What?"

Zhu Wenkui was stunned, a little incredulous.

Ma Hui looked at her son's pale face, a little unbearable, but she couldn't help but say, she keenly felt a sense of crisis: "Kui'er, two days ago, your father had already expressed his expectations for you, maybe you didn't realize it at all. ”

"Moreover, if you go to the Qianqing Palace today to plead, it will actually increase your father's punishment for the other party's filial piety."

"The reason is very simple, you are the prince of the Ming Dynasty, the future emperor, and you can't obey anyone, no matter how talented he is."

"Why? Isn't it a beautiful talk for monarchs and ministers to know each other and share wealth and wealth? ”

"It was just a courtier's talk, but it was the end of the king."

Ma Hui looked up at the roof, sighed, and said: "This palace once read "Zizhi Tongjian", in all dynasties, the emperor entrusted power to one person, except for the faint king, is the king of the dead country; And the so-called Ming Monarch Holy Lord, his subordinates are all talented, and there is no situation of relying on one person. ”

"What's more, Fang Xiaoru doesn't have such a great talent, your father has always asked him to be a teacher, and he has never been involved in court politics, don't you understand why?"

"But, but—"

Zhu Wenkui was a little unconvinced, hesitated for a moment and said: "In Erchen's opinion, Mr. Fang just lacks opportunities, he knows everything about literature and martial arts, and he is a great talent!" ”

"Smack!"

Ma Hui suddenly raised her hand and slapped Zhu Wenkui hard.

"Queen Mother, you-"

Zhu Wenkui was stunned.

"Get on your knees!"

Ma Hui's face sank like water, pointed to Zhu Wenkui, who was kneeling on the ground, and said, "You are only thirteen years old, so you dare to question your father's vision?" Since your father ascended the throne, the politics have been clear, the country is rich and the people are safe, invincible, and invincible, which can be compared with the ancient sages! ”

"And you have no self-knowledge, how can you let your father rest assured that the world will be handed over to you?"

What the?

Zhu Wenkui was stunned, he suddenly understood that this was his father's warning to him.

What are you warn of?

Zhu Wenkui shuddered.
