(Thank you for the commuter pass of "not going to work every day"!) ）

Zhang Huangyan lay on the bookcase and worked hard to write, while writing, he sighed in his heart that the power of heaven was unpredictable, this holy decree did not move Tong Yangjia at all, but it is estimated that it is more uncomfortable than killing Tong Yangjia. At the same time, he also gave the first assistant Ma Jiyuan absolute trust, according to Zhang Huangyan's understanding of Ma Jiyuan, this Taoist gentleman must thank the emperor for his trust after receiving the holy decree, and naturally he can also guard the base camp of Nanjing for the emperor.

Zhu Hongsan thought for a while after speaking, and then said: "Xuanzhu, you write another holy decree, Zhu Huai, the king of Chu, is not diligent and does not distinguish between grains and grains, and is lazy in his studies and does not want to make progress, so he will be beaten ten boards!" As the eldest son, the crown prince asked him to go to the Chu Palace's palace to supervise the punishment on his behalf! ”

Of course, Zhu Hongsan knew that what the prince's secret fold said was true, and this bastard's third son, Zhu Huai, dared to reach out and try. Some time ago, the prince Zhu Hai was punished because ensuring the throne was the first priority, so Zhu Hongsan didn't care about Zhu Huai's troubles, but punished the prince Zhu Hai first. Now that the situation in Nanjing is stable, it is natural to clean up this son.

After the three decrees were written, they were issued, and at the end of April in Nanjing, they received the emperor's decree, and naturally several bigwigs in the court reacted differently.

After hearing the news, Ma Mingyuan couldn't help but sigh that the emperor's wrist was playing more and more sleek, suppressing Tong Yangjia's power and selling the benefits to his eldest brother Ma Jiyuan, so that Ma Jiyuan and Tong Yangjia became mortal enemies, and the emperor could naturally benefit from these two factions.

Tong Yangjia was frightened after getting the news, he estimated that his nephew would be unlucky, but he didn't expect the emperor to clear the power of his court, and now he became a loner.

Ma Jiyuan burst into tears after seeing the holy decree, kowtowed to the south to thank the emperor for his kindness, and promised to keep this family business for the emperor.

The crown prince Zhu Hai also received the holy decree from his father, and Zhu Hai was in a very good mood when he saw that he was asked to beat Zhu Huai, the king of Chu.

Zhu Hai said to Xia Wanchun, a scholar beside him: "Cungu, what do you think of the holy decree given to me by my father?" What should I do? ”

After Qian Yiai left, the errand of the master of the East Palace was concurrently served by Xia Wanchun, a member of the Zhongshu House, although the master book is not a good official position, but he is the absolute henchman of the prince, because the master book manages all the documents of the prince of the East Palace, so the position is naturally important.

Xia Wanchun is the son of Xia Yunyi, and at the age of fourteen, he followed his father and teacher Chen Zilong to participate in the anti-Qing activities in eastern Zhejiang. However, Xiucai's rebellion failed for three years, Xia Yunyi and his son were really not materials for leading troops to fight, and Xia Wanchun was arrested in Songjiang in June of the first year of Shenwu. When Xia Wanchun was escorted to Nanjing, the official who presided over the Manchu southern purge was the great traitor Hong Chengchou.

Hong Chengchou was very proud when he heard that Xia Wanchun was arrested, so he wanted to personally persuade Xia Wanchun to surrender, because Xia Wanchun's teacher Chen Zilong and father Xia Yunyi were the leaders of the rebel army in eastern Zhejiang, and with Xia Wanchun, he could divide the rebel army. This move can not only disintegrate the fierce resistance of the rebel army in eastern Zhejiang, but also put gold dust on his face to cherish talents, which is to kill two birds with one stone.

Therefore, when Xia Wanchun was interrogated by the Yamen of the Governor of Nanjing, Hong Chengchou asked Xia Wanchun, who was arraigned below: "What great insight does your boy have, how can he be called a soldier and a rebel." Presumably he was deceived and mistakenly entered the army. If you return to the Qing Dynasty, you should not lose the beauty of the official. ”

Xia Wanchun was unmoved, and asked Hong Chengchou: "Who is you?" ”

The official next to him shouted: "This is Lord Hong!" ”

Another jailer whispered to him, "This is the Governor, Mr. Hong Hengjiu." ”

Xia Wanchun pretended not to know, and shouted sharply: "Hmph, the hall must be a fake fake." Mr. Hong Hengjiu of this dynasty, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, he fought bravely in Songshan and Xingshan with Beiyu, blood spattered Zhangqu, the first emperor heard the shock and mourned, and personally composed poems to praise and remember. It is precisely because I admire the loyalty of Mr. Hong Hengjiu that I want to die for my country in order to emulate the heroic deeds of the martyrs. ”

The prison officials were very embarrassed at this time, and Hong Chengchou was like ashes on the upper seat. At this time, a person came up on the side and shouted at Xia Wanchun: "It is Hong Chengchou who is interrogating you above!" ”

Xia Wanchun smiled loudly: "Don't lie to me!" Mr. Hong Hengjiu died in the Ming Dynasty for a long time, and the Son of Heaven once came to the ancestral hall to sacrifice, tears were sprinkled with dragon face, and the ministers whimpered. What kind of traitor and ugly kind of thief are you, dare to trust the name of Mr. Zhonglie, wear a captive hat and pretend to be Mr. Hong, what a dog thief! Hong Chengchou was silent for a long time, so he had to wave his hand, and now the official escorted Xia Wanchun back to prison. Then it was reported to the Qing court, and Xia Wanchun was to be sentenced to death.

How do you know that before the approval of the imperial court came down, Zhu Hongsan of Guangdong hit Nanjing. Hong Chengchou still cared about Xia Wanchun at this time, and fled to Yangzhou after failing to fight the Ming army outside the city, and Xia Wanchun did not die as in history.

Zhu Hongsan, who entered Nanjing, admired him very much after knowing the deeds of this young man to entertain Hong Chengchou, and Xia Wanchun's teacher was Chen Zilong, so Zhu Hongsan let Xia Wanchun serve as the chief secretary of the East Palace.

Xia Wanchun saw the prince's face happy, and he was very unhappy, Xia Wanchun, like his father Xia Yunyi, was extremely upright. Now seeing that the prince is overjoyed to be able to spank his brother's ass, Xia Wanchun is ready to remind the prince.

"Your Highness, although the King of Chu did not do it right this time, the King of Chu is the brother of the crown prince after all! Brother Wenzhi was punished, the prince should have a sad face, how can he be ecstatic? ”

Zhu Hai made Xia Wanchun very unhappy to snatch the white, and secretly said in his heart: This Xia Wanchun is really not as good as Qian Yiai, Zigao can also put forward it euphemistically even if he has an opinion, so can he give such a direct advice?

At this time, the eunuch outside the door came in to report that Qian Yiai was here.

Zhu Hai was overjoyed in his heart, he really said that Cao Cao Cao arrived, and Qian Yiai would definitely be able to give him an idea.

Qian Yiai came to see Zhu Hai when he received the news, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Zhu Hai had just received the holy decree and had not yet gone to the Chu Palace.

"Prince, the official came just in time, I don't know how the prince arranged this matter for the King of Chu?"

"Zigao, it's so good that you're here, Cungu asked Bengong to pretend to be a distressed brother, is this right?"

Qian Yiai was relieved to hear Xia Wanchun give this idea: "Your Highness, the lower officials think so too!" When you go to the palace of the king of Chu, your Royal Highness must feel sorry for the king of Chu, so that your majesty can see the brotherhood and friendship of His Royal Highness! ”

Xia Wanchun heard that the prince misinterpreted his meaning as pretending, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness, what is fake is always fake, and only if you really care about your brother is the right way!" ”

Qian Yiai nodded when he heard Xia Wanchun say this: "Your Highness, what Cungu said is very right!" The minister is also worried that His Majesty will see through the fraud too much, why don't His Highness share a few boards for the King of Chu when he goes to the Chu King's Mansion for a while? ”

Xia Wanchun listened to what Qian Yiai said more and more unspeakable, and scolded angrily: "Qian Zigao, what idea did you come up with for His Royal Highness?" These crooked ways are not at all what a righteous gentleman like His Highness should use! Your Highness, the minister asks Your Highness not to do what Qian Zigao said, it is easy to backfire! ”

Zhu Hai was very unhappy when he heard Xia Wanchun say this, and now that he and the third child are endless, what kind of brotherhood and friendship are you talking about?

But Xia Wanchun was one of his advisors after all, and Zhu Hai didn't want him to be unable to get off the stage, so he had to say: "Okay! What to do in this palace has a good idea, don't go to the ancient times, and go to the palace of the Chu Wangfu by yourself! ”

After Zhu Hai finished speaking, he ignored Xia Wanchun, brought the eunuch from Guangxi to deliver the decree, and the four wrestlers from Dongchang, and prepared to go to the Chu Palace's mansion to beat the ass of the third Zhu Huai.

Xia Wanchun saw that the prince did not listen to his advice, and was not only very dissatisfied with Qian Yiai. After the prince left, he said to Qian Yiai: "Brother Zi, the prince is the prince of the country, and your methods are inevitable, but it is really not a gentleman's doing!" ”

Qian Yiai couldn't look down on Xia Wanchun's hypocrisy, and hehe sneered: "Oh? The ancient brother is a righteous man, I don't know if he can convince Hong Chengchou to do it anyway? ”

Xia Wanchun listened to Qian Yiai's sarcasm and said angrily: "Qian Yiai, you villain!" You are not a son of man! ”

Qian Yiai was originally going to compete with Xia Wanchun for the position of the first strategist in front of the prince, but now he heard Xia Wanchun scold himself for not being a son of man, and he didn't care what kind of bearing, he scolded directly: "Xia Wanchun, who are you scolding?" Isn't it a bad brain in prison! ”

Although Xia Wanchun is one or two years younger than Qian Yiai, he is like a fire, where can he stand this anger, stand up and fight with Qian Yiai.

Both of them are the prince's advisers, one is the former chief bookkeeper and the other is the current chief bookkeeper, and now it is difficult to kill the eunuchs in the prince's mansion if they are in a mess. Now that the prince is not in the East Palace, the little eunuch at the door does not dare to go up to pull the rack, so he has no choice but to call the eunuch Li Mi, the steward of the East Palace.

Li Mi was also startled when he came, these two adults usually looked dignified, how could they think of using any move to fight, I saw Xia Wanchun teasing the yin leg with one move, Qian Yiai dodged and lowered his body to steal the peach with a monkey, and the moves of the two of them were greeted in three ways, and Li Mi who watched felt that it was not a good thing for him to be a eunuch.

After Li Mi entered the house, he hurriedly shouted: "My mother! Stop it, two adults! ”

Li Mi shouted happily, but his identity as a eunuch could stop the two, Li Mi thought for a long time and had no choice but to go to the crown princess Ma Ning'er, probably now the crown princess in the East Palace can make the two stop.

After a while, the crown princess Ma Ning'er came, and after Ma Ning'er entered the house, she was happy when she saw the posture of the two of them, you must know that Xia Wanchun looks like a decent man and a gentleman, and Qian Yiai is even more dignified, often dressed in white, holding a folding fan and looking like a beautiful son. It's good now, Qian Yiai's white clothes are all dusty and have become flower clothes. Xia Wanchun was also caught by Qian Yiai's face, and there were five blood marks on his face.

The two of them can ignore Li Mi, but it would be disrespectful to be rude in front of the crown princess. The two quickly got up from the ground and bowed down and said, "The minister has seen the crown princess!" ”

Ma Ning'er's personality is similar to that of his aunt Ma Xiaofang, and she is also a master who is not afraid of chaos when she sees the excitement, so she came into the room and said with a smile: "I used to see that the two gentlemen were good-looking, but I didn't expect that they were also temperamental, and they would start fighting if they didn't agree with each other!" The two gentlemen really have the style of a courtly old man! ”

It was a tradition for civil officials to fight in the Ming Dynasty, and it became even more intensified in the Shenwu court, and every year the elders of the court were not feeling well if they did not fight a few times.

Ma Ning'er knew that these two were her husband's cronies, so what she said was clearly and implicitly, which meant that the two of them would be elders in the future, and it would not be too late to fight in the future.
