Zhu Hongsan is so angry today not because Zhu Hai came to intercede for Zhu Youlang, but because Zhu Hai, as his heir, has no political consciousness at all, and he can't see that he wants to suppress the Korean sergeant group. Now he even ran over to intercede for them for some false names, which really made Zhu Hongsan too angry.

As the crown prince and the heir of the empire, Zhu Hai should naturally stand with the emperor, because this is to safeguard the interests of the ruling class. But Zhu Hai* stood on the opposite side of the imperial power for the sake of a little bit of fame, on the side of those scholars, how could this not make Zhu Hongsan angry?

Zhu Hongsan didn't wait for Zhu Hai to finish speaking, he stood up and picked up the inkstone on the royal table and hit it: "Bastard bastard, who are you talking for?" ”

Before Zhu Hai could react to what his father was angry about, thinking that he was still drilling the horns of the bull for Zhu Youlang's matter, Zhu Hai quickly stood up and dodged the inkstone, and said while hiding: "Father, since ancient times, the emperor has been on the throne except for Han Gaozu and Taizu of this dynasty, why is my father still afraid of a dead person?" Can't be generous to Guiwang Zhu Youlang a temple number, so as to avoid disputes between the court and China, but also block the mouth of the world, isn't it good? ”

Zhu Hongsan saw Zhu Hai dodging the inkstone, and his mouth was still in his mouth, and he scolded angrily: "Okay, don't you like to read?" Lao Tzu let you read, come on! Passed the decree to the prince's teacher Huang Zongxi, let him watch the prince read, read through the Sui Shu Shizu Benji, and then let this brute come back and say how to be the prince! ”

Zhu Hai didn't know what the Sui Shu Shizu Benji was for, and the Sui Shu Shizu Benji was the one who wrote the Great Dusk Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty. Zhu Hongsan asked Zhu Hai to read the Book of Sui, naturally not to let him learn from Yang Guang, but to let Zhu Hai see how Yang Jian's original crown prince Yang Yong was deposed. It was Yang Yong who always contradicted Yang Jian, and Yang Guang was on the side with bad medicine, so Yang Yong was deposed by Yang Jian as the king of Fangling, and Yang Yong was killed as soon as Yang Guang ascended the throne.

Zhu Hai heard his father say this and knew that his father really had the intention to abolish the crown prince this time, or he couldn't compare Yang Yong to himself, at this time Zhu Hai regretted a little to intercede for Zhu Youlang, after all, compared with his own position, everything is secondary.

Zhu Hongsan saw that Zhu Hai bowed his head and didn't speak, and scolded angrily: "Get out of here, come here, take back the prince's waist card for entering the palace, and you can't enter the palace without an edict!" "The emperor's order is the holy decree, someone came to take back the crown prince Zhu Hai's waist card, and then carried Zhu Hai out of the Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Hongsan already had some high blood pressure, and this time he was a little dizzy by his son. After Zhu Hai was taken out, Zhu Hongsan sat on the throne with his ass and rubbed his temples with his hands.

Li Chengen saw that Zhu Hongsan was about to return to his position, so he hurriedly came over and patted the back of his heart, and it took a long time for Zhu Hongsan to calm down.

Zhu Hongsan sighed after taking a sip of tea: "Hey, Lao Tzu worked hard to fight the country back then, just so that these boys will not suffer and be poor in the future." Lao Tzu has seen those expired clan relatives in Wuchang, and the Liukou have been sunk in the river, and the Fu King of Luoyang was actually made into a Fu Lu banquet by Li Zicheng. Lao Tzu swore back then that as long as I had a son, I would definitely educate me well, and I would never let my children and grandchildren go back to the old path of the previous dynasty. Lao Tzu said that the emperor did the same, and several sons stayed by his side to educate him personally, but how did this eldest son, who Lao Tzu hoped for the most, become like this? Who do you think this rebel looks like? Like Lao Tzu or like his mother? ”

Zhu Hongsan was talking about the old past, and Li Chengen knew that this was a secret of the Heavenly Family, but he didn't dare to interject at all, just stood respectfully on the side.

Zhu Hongsan was silent for a long time after speaking, and suddenly asked: "Lao Li, what about you saying that Lao Tzu abolished Zhu Hai?" ”

Li Chengen heard the emperor ask him this, he was so frightened that he knelt down and shouted: "Emperor, the slave is just your house slave, the slave dares to talk about the master's family affairs, the slave doesn't dare to listen, this ear goes in and the other ear pops out!" Guaranteed not to stay in the head! "Li Chengen knows that the abolition of the prince is a big deal, and if he is not good, he will be involved in this whirlpool, which is not something that he can be mixed with as a eunuch.

Zhu Hongsan was just chatting with Li Chengen, and he didn't expect Li Chengen to say anything, and when he saw Li Chengen scared like this, he smiled and said: "You old dog, get up, I won't ask you!" ”

Li Chengen heard that the emperor claimed to be me again, and knew that the emperor was angry, so he breathed a sigh of relief and stood up.

Zhu Hongsan continued: "Lao Li, you go and pass on the edict to King Qin, a few years ago, he fought in Japan, and I didn't reward him, this time I rewarded him with King Qin's double salary!" Six dragon flags! and let him serve as the Minister of the Interior of the Guard, assisting in the defense of the nine gates of the inner city! ”

Li Chengen's heart jumped when he heard Zhu Hongsan say this, why did the emperor reward King Qin at this time? Shuangfeng said that it was nothing more than to give his son more wages, but this six dragon flags said a little. The authority of the emperor represented by the dragon flag, and only the emperor himself and the prince could use the dragon flag to open the way. The Ming Dynasty emperor's ceremonial guard used twelve dragon flags, all of which were bright yellow five-clawed golden dragons, arranged on the left and right, and twelve armorers were used. The prince's guard of honor uses six dragon flags, with a yellow flag in the center, a green flag in front of the left, a red flag in front of the right, a black flag in the back left, and a white flag in the back right. The prince's guard of honor uses four flags, this is not the dragon flag, but the second square color flag, and the second cyan and white flag. The county king's honor guard is even worse, the second order flag, the second Qingdao flag, and the second Qingdao flag, are also four.

Now the emperor is rewarding the King of Qin with the same honor guard as the crown prince, what is this for? Could it be that the emperor really has the heart of abolishing the crown prince? There is also the appointment of King Qin as the Minister of the Guard, you must know that the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty is not in charge of specific government affairs, and now he gives a prince such a big power, what is this for?

Li Chengen didn't dare to ask these words, and after receiving the emperor's holy decree, Li Chengen hurriedly rushed to the Qin Wangfu in the city in person, so as to tell the news to Zhu Jiang, the king of Qin.

Zhu Jiang has been idle at home for six years since he was framed by the prince's party. The past six years have been really tormenting for Zhu Jiang, listening every day that his comrades-in-arms were promoted and made rich one by one, and they were waiting to worship the generals, but he had achieved nothing in the palace, every time he thought of himself, Zhu Jiang's resentment towards the prince became bigger and bigger.

Today, Zhu Jiang practiced martial arts with the guards at home, and everyone drank together after the incident, Zhu Jiang was happy to talk about playing with women in Japan back then, when a small eunuch outside the door came in to report that Gonggong Li in the palace came to pass on the emperor's holy decree!

Zhu Jiang knew that Gonggong Li was the supervisor of Dongchang Factory, this was a big man, but this kind of big man had never had much friendship with an idle prince of his own, and every time his father's will was to send a small eunuch casually, why did Gonggong Li come in person today?

Zhu Jiang didn't dare to hesitate, this is a holy decree, a little disrespect is enough for Zhu Jiang to drink a pot, not to mention that there are many princelings in the capital, in case of misconduct, it will be inappropriate for people to participate in a book.

Zhu Jiang hurriedly changed into the prince's clothes, and then put out the incense case and knelt on the ground to meet his father's will.

Li Chengen entered the palace and smiled and said: "His Royal Highness King Qin, this is the first time the old slave has come to the palace, His Royal Highness the King of Qin, this palace is good!" ”

Zhu Hongsan was very good to his son, and after entering the city, he rewarded the original Chongzhen's hidden mansion, that is, the Xinwang Mansion in Dongdan, to his second son Zhu Jiang, and allocated two major silver trends for renovation, so the Qin Wangfu was not much worse than the East Palace. This is also a kind of compensation from Zhu Hongsan to Zhu Jiang, the king of Qin, after all, he is his favorite son, and he can't be the prince so he has to compensate from the economic aspect.

Zhu Jiang grinned when he heard Li Chengen say this: "Wherever and wherever it is, this is the father's reward for his son!" I don't know what happened to Gonggong Li coming in person today? ”

"Oh, yes! The emperor has a will for the King of Qin! After Li Chengen finished speaking, he took out Zhu Hongsan's holy decree and began to read: "Zhu Jiang, the second son of the emperor, was in the first battle of Japan in the fourth year of Shenwu; There are three great merits, fifteen small merits, and six special rewards for the prince's double and dragon flags! At the same time, he served as the Minister of the Interior of the Guard, assisting in the defense of the Nine Gates! Chin this! ”

Zhu Jiang was stunned on the spot when he heard Li Chengen recite the holy decree, this year is the eleventh year of Shenwu, and the credit of Shenwu's four years will not come until seven years later, what is this for?

Li Chengen saw that Zhu Jiang was stunned and didn't accept the order, and couldn't help but say softly: "Your Highness, take the order!" ”

Zhu Jiang remembered after being reminded by Li Chengen, and quickly kowtowed to thank the emperor, and then stood up to take the holy decree.

After Zhu Jiang took the holy decree, he pulled Li Chengen and asked, "Gonggong Li, what's going on?" Why did my father suddenly reward the king with such things? ”

Li Chengen laughed a few times: "Hehe, Your Highness, you have to have a good day, and the old slave may have to rely on Your Highness in the future!" ”

Zhu Jiang heard what this old thing said, and hurriedly took out a bill of exchange of 1,000 silver dollars from his sleeve, stuffed it into Li Chengen's hand and asked: "Gonggong Li, this king is a rough man, and he doesn't have the crooked intestines of literati, if you have anything to say, please say it directly!" ”

Li Chengen knew that this King of Qin was rich, and he didn't know how much gold, silver and jewelry he had robbed in Japan back then, and now it was completely trivial to take out a thousand silver dollars.

"Hehe, Your Highness, just now the prince went to the palace to see the emperor, just to intercede for Zhu Youlang, but he was scolded by the emperor, and asked the prince to go home and see more Sui Shu Shizu Benji!"

Zhu Jiang doesn't have Zhu Hai's culture, although he is not semi-literate, but he is not much worse, and I don't know what it means when I hear Li Chengen say this. Zhu Jiang was just about to ask, but how did he know that Li Chengen smiled and returned to the palace.

Zhu Jiang hates this kind of and half of the person the most, if you have anything to say, you have to make some mysteries.

Zhu Jiang thought about it, he was surrounded by big bosses, and he was not as good as himself, so he wouldn't ask his uncle Ma Rufeng. Although Ma Rufeng's knowledge is not high, he is still stronger than himself.

Thinking of this, Zhu Jiang didn't drink anymore, so he took twenty guards and rode out on horseback to the Yamen, the commander of the infantry army, which was later known as the Admiral of Jiumen.

In the past, Zhu Jiang was afraid that the prince's party would frame him, so he met Ma Rufeng and others behind his back. But now it's different, the emperor issued a holy decree to let himself manage the defense of the nine gates of the inner city, and it was justified for him to come to Ma Rufeng, so Zhu Jiang rode a high-headed horse directly to Zhengyangmen, close to the yamen of the infantry army in the thousand-step corridor.
