Zhang Bin tried his best to avoid premature conflict with Chongzhen, so that the crown prince Zhu Cihong would grow up and "succeed to the throne" smoothly, but he never thought that as soon as the prince Zhu Cihong heard that he was back, he had a conflict with Chongzhen!

The reason why the crown prince Zhu Cihong clashed with Chongzhen was not for Zhang Bin, but for Zhang Bin's baby daughter Zhang Xiang, since he witnessed Zheng Chenggong and Chen Xiuxiu tying the knot, he came up with the idea of marrying little Zhang Xiang, but unfortunately, this idea was rudely interrupted by his father.

He thinks that his master Zhang Bin is a rare great virtuous minister, but his father thinks that his master Zhang Bin is a Cao Cao-style character, and wants to bewitch him and play some tricks to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes.

He will not believe this, he only believes what he sees, only believes in his own feelings, his master Zhang Bin treats him as his own, how can he hold him hostage like Cao Cao held Emperor Han Xian hostage.

From that time on, he had a disagreement with his father, even if his father removed his master Zhang Bin from the position of Zhan Shifu Zhan Shifu, did not let Zhang Bin teach him to read and learn calligraphy, and even his senior brother Zheng Chenggong drove away, he still regarded Zhang Bin as his master, and he still wanted to marry Xiao Zhang Xiang as his crown princess and even the queen.

Since the master Zhang Bin led the army to the expedition, he doesn't know how long he hasn't seen Xiao Zhang Xiang, the longing in his heart is getting stronger and stronger, at this time when he heard his senior brother Chen Zilong said that the master Zhang Bin is back, he couldn't bear the thoughts in his heart, went to Chongzhen, and asked to go out of the palace to visit the master Zhang Bin's mansion.

Chongzhen naturally didn't agree, he finally took Zhang Bin away, and let his son get out of touch with Zhang Bin, at this time Zhu Cihong actually wanted to visit Zhang Bin, how could he agree.

Zhu Cihong did not inherit Chongzhen's other bad temperaments, but this stubborn donkey's temperament was inherited well, and what he wanted to do, it was also something that nine cows couldn't pull back!

He wanted to visit his master Zhang Bin's mansion, but Chongzhen didn't agree, so he had to do it, if he didn't agree, he would make trouble!

In the past few days, he went to the Qianqing Palace to find Chongzhen whenever he had the opportunity, crying and shouting that he wanted to visit Zhang Bin's mansion, but Chongzhen disagreed, so he cried endlessly, so that Chongzhen couldn't even approve it.

Chongzhen was extremely bored by him, he became more and more disappointed in Zhu Cihong, taught him the way to govern the country, and told him not to get too close to Zhang Bin, but he just didn't listen, but went against himself, insisted on dealing with Zhang Bin, and even the queen followed to help, as soon as he returned to Kunning Palace, he nagged in front of him, and annoyed people to death.

Chongzhen was so angry that he didn't even return to Kunning Palace, and went to the harem to find the new concubine Tian after dealing with government affairs every day.

Tian Guifei is gentle and considerate, empathetic, unlike the queen, who often annoys him for the prince's affairs, and compares the two sides, he naturally takes Tian Guifei instead of the queen.

After dealing with government affairs on this day, he was about to set up the harem, but Cao Huachun suddenly gave up his hand and said: "Your Majesty, Empress Zhang sent someone to send a message, please go to Ciqing Palace for dinner tonight." ”

This queen Zhang naturally does not refer to his own queen, but his brother Tianqi's queen, the imperial sister-in-law Zhang Yan, although he knew that it was the crown prince Zhu Cihong who was playing ghosts, but he still let Cao Huachun set up the Ciqing Palace, because the imperial sister-in-law Zhang Yan cared for him very much, just like his mother, and he couldn't sweep the face of the imperial sister-in-law.

What made him strange was that when he came to the side hall of Ciqing Palace, he saw that the imperial sister-in-law Zhang Yan was standing alone at the dining table, and the crown prince Zhu Cihong was not there.

However, Zhang Yan was really looking for Chongzhen for the prince's business, and after she beckoned Chongzhen to sit down, she said with concern: "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you and Hong'er, the two fathers and sons are still in conflict." ”

Chongzhen was slightly annoyed and said: "Hong'er is getting more and more disagreeable, I asked him not to be very close to Zhang Bin, but he didn't listen." I am also for his good, Zhang Bin is quite a hero, once he gains power, it is very likely to become a hero like Cao Cao, when the time comes, Hong'er will be pinched by him, won't this country fall into the hands of others! ”

Zhang Yan shook her head and sighed: "The concubine doesn't understand this, but she is unhappy when she sees Hong'er, and the concubine is not comfortable in her heart." ”

Chongzhen hurriedly comforted: "Imperial sister-in-law, don't affect your mood for Hong'er, this child is too disobedient, you have to teach well, otherwise Da Ming will have to be lost in his hands in the future!" ”

Zhang Yan didn't seem to hear his words, and recalled with hazy eyes: "When the concubine first entered the palace, the emperor was also so big, you were more skinny than Hong'er, you didn't want to study at that time, the concubine had to stare at you every time to read, if you didn't star, you ran away, and played hide and seek with the concubine, every time the concubine had to look for you for a long time to find it." Hong'er is much better than you, he doesn't even want me to stare at his books, children are like this, when they grow up and are sensible, it's fine, isn't the emperor very good now? ”

Chongzhen recalled the scene at that time, and said embarrassedly: "This, sister-in-law, what do you say, he is messing with me every day now." ”

Zhang Yan said wisely: "If the concubine remembers correctly, Zhang Bin should be older than the emperor, when Hong'er succeeded to the throne, it is estimated that he will return to his hometown, even if he does not return to his hometown, the emperor can also issue an order to force him to become a minister, how can he have the opportunity to hold Hong'er hostage?" Hong'er is lonely in the palace alone, if you don't feel at ease, you can let Zhang Bin bring his children to Ciqing Palace to play with Hong'er, what do you think, Emperor? ”

When Chongzhen heard this, he was stunned for a while, and then said helplessly: "Okay, the imperial sister-in-law, you can watch it, but when Zhang Bin comes over, you have to help me watch it, don't let him take the opportunity to continue to bewitch Hong'er." ”

When Zhang Yan heard his words, she couldn't help but show a strange look on her face, and asked her to look at Zhang Bin, this, is it appropriate?

Early the next morning, when the morning dynasty ended, Zhang Bin had just come to the cabinet duty room and sat down, when a eunuch outside the door screamed: "Lord Zhang, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince invites you to go to Ciqing Palace." ”

Summoned by the Prince?

Zhang Bin couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, the prince didn't seem to have summoned anyone yet, in his eyes, the prince Zhu Cihong was still a child, and summoning courtiers sounded a little weird.

In fact, the crown prince also has the right to summon courtiers, but generally after adulthood, like Zhu Cihong, he summons courtiers at the age of eleven or twelve, and he has not really heard of it.

However, he still quickly got up and walked out of the door, because he also missed the crown prince Zhu Cihong and wanted to see him.

The cabinet duty room was less than a mile away from Ciqing Palace, and soon, Zhang Bin followed the little eunuch to Ciqing Palace.

At this time, the crown prince Zhu Cihong and the queen Zhang Yan had already stood at the door of the study of Ciqing Palace, and as soon as he walked in, the prince rushed up, threw himself into his arms, and said excitedly: "Master, I haven't seen you for a long time, I heard that you led the army to fight, and I couldn't sleep with worry." ”

Zhang Bin patted him on the back, and then glanced deeply at Queen Zhang Yan, and then said lovingly: "Silly boy, what are you worried about, the master has been through a hundred battles and has never been defeated, what can happen." ”

Zhu Cihong stood up from his arms, took his arm and said excitedly: "Yes, yes, the master is a victorious general, whether it is a thief or a Jiannu, he is not the master's opponent, by the way, I heard that the master almost hit Jiannu's lair this time, is it true, come and tell me, my map of Liaodong is ready." ”

After that, he pulled Zhang Bin and walked to the study, although Zhang Bin was smiling and spoiled, but he couldn't help but be a little excited in his heart, looking at Queen Zhang Yan like that, it seemed that he also wanted to hear about his great achievements, showing his achievements in front of beauties, it was exciting to think about it.
