"Song Li, that old horseman!!" Xu Jingyuan gritted his teeth and scolded as soon as he opened his mouth, "Guess what he did?!" After ordering Jia Niang to go back to Yingtianfu, he actually asked someone to bring a message to His Majesty, asking His Majesty to send an attendant over and summon us to go to the grassland to greet Your Majesty! ”

"Isn't that to be expected?" Xu Jingchang said unhurriedly, "Your Majesty has decided to move the capital, and the canal must be opened, this eye, let's make trouble for him, he can't bear to deal with us with his father's merits, except to call us to his side and stare at it personally, what else can we do?" ”

Xu Jingyuan sneered and said, "Can't bear it? Who knows if it's unbearable or ......"

"Shut up!" Xu Jingchang frowned, and after drinking her, he waved his hand to let the left and right sides retreat, and then said, "This kind of thing can also be said casually?" You really don't think he's the emperor anymore? ”

"He was sorry for us!" Xu Jingyuan's tears fell suddenly, and he choked up, "If it weren't for him, how could my father not have it?" If Daddy is still here, how can our house be like this?! is also the queen's brother, the Duke of Wei Mansion is because he is the queen's sibling, even if the old Wei Guogong suggested disposing of the crown prince, the king of Han, and the king of Zhao, and after His Majesty entered the Yingtian Mansion, he still regarded himself as a loyal minister of Jianwen, but it was only degraded for so many years, and then the queen was gone, didn't His Majesty return the title to them? ! ”

"But what about us? Just because Daddy and the Queen are half-brothers, not from the same maternal grandmother, Daddy is so conscientious to speak to His Majesty! It was even more in order to favor His Majesty who died at the hands of Jianwen...... What did His Majesty do? It's just a Dingguo Gong! ”

In fact, when Emperor Yongle posthumously crowned Xu Zengshou as the Marquis of Wuyang and was loyal to him, many people felt that it was a great grace.

After all, although Xu Zengshou did speak to Emperor Yongle, and he did die in the hands of Emperor Jianwen because of this, but in the process of Emperor Yongle's ascension to the throne, there were more people who died for him, and there was really no one who could treat Xu Zengshou better.

Later, when Emperor Yongle added the title of Duke of Dingguo, Empress Xu opposed it and felt that it was too grand.

The queen did this, some people thought that the age gap between her and Xu Zengshou was relatively large, and she was not a biological mother, so she might have the consideration of favoring her brother Wei Guogong.

However, anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is even more worried that the Xu family will be too prominent, and when the time comes, it will be too much, and it will become a talisman for the Xu family...... Although the lineage of Wei Guogong had been taken away because of Xu Huizu's unswerving protection of Jianwen at that time, Xu Huizu was the heir of Xu Da, the king of Zhongshan, and had a close relationship with Queen Xu.

Later, in the year when the queen went, Xu Huizu was gone, didn't Emperor Yongle just order Xu Huizu's son to be the Duke of Wei and inherit the Zongao for Xu Da?

Over the years, whether it is Dingguotai's wife Mu or some other people, they have told Xu Jingchang's brothers and sisters.

But for the younger brothers and sisters, they are also the queen's maiden family, and the Wei Mansion can be easily had, why should his father exchange his life? !

If Xu Zengshou was an unqualified father, it would be fine, but he was not.

Although the loyal duke, who was only twenty-eight years old at the time of the death, also had several concubines at that time and had children from concubines, he never neglected to spoil and connive at his children.

The relationship between father and son is deep, and the blow of losing a father can be imagined.

It was Emperor Jianwen who directly killed Xu Zengshou, but Emperor Jianwen has been missing for many years, and even Emperor Yongle has tried everything to find it to no avail.

As for the descendants of Emperor Jianwen, without the request of their brothers and sisters, Emperor Yongle will not let it go.

For the brothers and sisters of the Xu family, who have always been spoiled and brought up, these are still far from being able to calm their grievances and anger.

Then the rest can only be recorded on the head of Emperor Yongle.

If it weren't for the help of Emperor Yongle, how could Xu Zengshou die?!

It's been almost ten years, and every time I cry because I miss my father, the brother and sister think so.

Even if Emperor Yongle has always been fond of the Dingguo Mansion, for Xu Jingchang and Xu Jingyuan, these are not uncommon.

Rather than having a family of relatives who are less than the upper and more than the lower, his father Xu Zengshou is still alive and well.

"And what Dingguo Gong, it sounds good!" The more Xu Jingyuan thought about it, the more he felt aggrieved, and he choked up and continued, "There is no serious envoy, and in terms of power and status, it can't be compared with those serious magnates!" ”

mentioned Shen Steallan, "If it weren't for the fact that you have no power because of your empty title, brother, then Shen Steallan is something, and he dares not to give us face?!" ”

"The Wei Mansion doesn't have any decent errands now." Xu Jingchang acted very absurdly and debauched, and his temper was not very good, but in the end, he was mixed up in the noble circle, and he still had the basic consciousness, so he shook his head and said, "Although we have always stumbled with the Wei State Mansion, but in the end, we can't write two 'Xu' characters in one stroke, and you don't want to think about how great our father, grandfather and uncle are!" is already a two-country public, if the descendants are still as amazing and brilliant as their predecessors, will their Zhu family still be able to sleep? ”

Especially Queen Xu is no longer there.

Although this queen's aunt did not favor her mother's family all the time when she was there, she was the daughter of the Xu family in the end, and she had a lot of weight in front of Emperor Yongle.

As long as she is alive, no matter what kind of grievances there are between the Xu family and the royal family, there is still room for mediation.

Without this buffer, how can the Xu family not be cautious now?

It's not just Queen Xu, "Our father is gone, and my uncles are almost withered." Even if he kept saying that he wanted to win His Majesty's uncle for Jianwen, he had a friendship with His Majesty since he was a teenager. After they all went, now the heads of several rooms are juniors, how much affection do you say can make the royal family think of it? ”

"So why do you think Your Majesty is so indulgent to us? It's just that we know that we are tossing and turning, but it's just such a little trick, and it can't threaten their old Zhu family! ”

Xu Jingchang sneered as he spoke, "It is precisely because of Your Majesty's idea that there is nothing taboo for us to make trouble." Anyway, at most, he was grounded and beaten, and he kept to himself for a few days, but didn't he come out? Left and right, we don't expect to be in power in our lives, and we just rely on titles to live! If you don't make a fuss when you are young, will you regret it when you are old and think back to the muddled nightmares of this life? ”

He just wanted to vent for a while, but Xu Jingyuan's eyes flashed, and he suddenly said: "The matter between the prince and the king of Han, we really don't interfere?" ”

"Now Your Majesty is personally recruiting, and the state affairs are entrusted to the hands of the crown prince." At the same time, Xi Fuwei and Shen Weilan, who had returned to the small courtyard, were also discussing this issue, "The matter of opening the river is said to be His Majesty's order, but His Majesty bothered with the war, even if he personally appointed the minister to preside, can His Royal Highness the Crown Prince not look at it?" ”

"If something goes wrong with this matter, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will inevitably be questioned, right?"

Xi Fuwei looked at Shen Weilan, "At that time, no one will propose, it is better to let His Royal Highness the King of Han share one or two for His Majesty and His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”

When Shen Weilan heard this, he showed a smile that seemed to be not a smile, and said, "His Royal Highness the King of Han is presiding over the opening of the river? In fact, when the matter of opening the river was first proposed, some people in the prince's staff proposed that the envoy should be handed over to the king of Han or Zhao. ”

Since it was the suggestion of the prince's staff, it was definitely not a good intention.

Xi Fuwei thoughtfully: "Aren't King Han or King Zhao good at such things?" ”

"It's not a question of whether you're good at it or not." Shen Whispering Lan said, "Anyway, if you're not good at it, you can't find someone who knows how to do it." It's that these two have been in the army for many years, and their actions are inevitably informal. Originally, the dynasty had not been in power for a long time, but the war has not yet been settled, and the treasury is naturally empty. If they are allowed to meddle in this matter, even if the canal is opened, the infamy of the people will be almost the same as when Emperor Sui opened the river! ”

Xi Fuwei frowned, and said in her heart that Queen Xu disliked the temperament of the second son and the third son, it seems that there is still something really wrong?

When Emperor Sui dug the canal, because of the cruelty of supervision, the people were not able to make a living, and the people were very complaining.

Shen Steallan used this King of Han and King Zhao to show the fierceness of these two princes.

She groaned and asked, "Then why didn't it work out?" ”

It is said that since the king of Han intends to be the prince, he should be very willing to show his face in this kind of thing.

King Zhao is helping this second brother, if the crown prince is also willing to help the trouble...... There should be a good chance that King Han will take over this matter?

"Because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that although the King of Han and the King of Zhao were very dissatisfied with his brother, some discord between the brothers was not a reason to involve the people and disobey His Majesty, so not only did he reject this proposal, but also sent the staff away." Shen Weilan turned her head to look at the rain curtain outside the window, and said lightly, "Otherwise, this messenger wouldn't have asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to help watch it." ”

On their way back it suddenly began to rain, so that it was still a little time before evening, but it was as if it was already dark, and it was annoying.

The arc of Xi Fuwei's cheeks under the light was very soft, but her expression was slightly cold, she raised her eyebrows, and said in her heart It seems that the prince's statement is to let Emperor Yongle know?

And it's not above board, it's estimated that it's the path of Jinyiwei.

Since Emperor Yongle knew about the opening of the river and handed over the matter of opening the river to the prince to assist him, it is said that he will not change the prince for a while?

"The matter of the prince has its own headache in the court." While thinking about it, Shen Stealing Lan said, "What we have to think about is, in the final analysis, to open the river." ”

"It's not just the opening of the river, it's also the orderly operation of the canal after it is reopened, which can come in handy immediately, so as not to delay Your Majesty's affairs!"

"......" Xi Fuwei was silent for a while before she said, "However, the Zou Mansion fell to the Dingguo Mansion, and the Dingguo Mansion himself said that he was against moving the capital, what are you going to do about this?" ”
