Chapter 80: Old Man Wanli
Kang Ning carried Zhu Changxun on his back like this, and there was no eunuch telling him to put King Fu on the bed for the time being.
It wasn't until Emperor Wanli came with a group of imperial doctors that someone remembered that he needed to put King Fu on the bed, so that he could easily look and hear.
So everyone commanded with all hands and feet, and some people said that they would go to the harem dormitory first, and then they would be diagnosed and treated.
Some people strongly objected, saying that the distance was too far, and they were afraid that it would delay time.
The two sides immediately quarreled.
Kang Ning couldn't stand it, and roared in a loud voice: "Do you still want to keep Your Majesty's son?" ”
Everyone was silent, after all, no one could afford such a big crime.
Kangning didn't even know where he got such courage, even if he was a traverser, he had to be respectful in front of the emperor.
In front of the leaders of later generations, etiquette is also indispensable.
But today's Corning somehow has no sense of fear at all.
In his opinion, perhaps it was all kinds of unprincipled struggles, and actions that were no longer effective, that made him very disappointed in the people around him.
Especially His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, even if King Fu Zhu Changxun's behavior is seriously suspected of being a show, objectively speaking, he was rescued by King Fu after all, and he didn't care about his injured younger brother.
How can this kind of scene not be chilling?
For an undercover agent, such behavior is likely to be irrational, but in this particular case, his irrational behavior has not brought any serious consequences.
At least, Emperor Wanli didn't blame him, because, for everything Kangning did.
All to save his favorite third son, Zhu Changxun.
In the gossip just now, no one stretched out their hands, even to help Kang Ning pay Zhu Changxun on his back.
But while they stand by and watch, they only quack like crows.
This made the Wanli Emperor even more satisfied with Kangning's unusual performance.
At this time, Emperor Wanli was no longer as flustered as he was at the beginning, on the contrary, the dim gaze shot from his small eyes was full of penetrating power.
It seems that everything around him cannot hide anything from him.
When Kang Ning noticed the gaze of His Majesty the Emperor, the literati and scholars who recorded the Wanli Emperor as a mediocre person had already been greeted by Kang Ning for eighteen generations.
The man who stands at the top of power and has been weathered, hiding in the deep palace to peep at the emperor of Wenchen's party struggle, mediocrity may be an ingredient of his life, but it is by no means the main ingredient, let alone the effective ingredient.
Kangning laid His Royal Highness Fu on the floor, then took off his clothes and spread them on the side.
Several eunuchs around him did the same, under Kang Ning's sharp eyes.
They weren't afraid of Kangning, they were afraid of the tiger Wanli behind Kangning's fox.
Then everyone carried King Fu onto the mattress made of clothes, and then the imperial doctors gathered around and began to look and hear.
They wish that His Royal Highness King Fu could grow a few more arms, so that they could each have one to check the pulse.
Now, they have to line up one by one.
Kang Ning stood beside him at this time, intentionally or unintentionally looking at the two little children who followed the prince.
Suddenly, a chubby hand grabbed Corning's arm.
Corning subconsciously tried to dodge, but was unsuccessful.
When he moved his gaze to look over, he was stunned to find that this chubby hand belonged to Emperor Wanli.
The old emperor glanced playfully at the emerald green toad ring, and suddenly pulled Kangning to a corner of the main hall.
"Husband's errand?"
Glancing at the absence of anyone around, the old emperor asked in a low voice, "You should be the only spy I haven't seen." You are, Corning! ”
"Wechen is Corning."
"You're not my courtier yet."
The old emperor's small eyes were radiant, and he kept scanning Kang Ning like a CT, "Li Duo said that you have Zhang Songzhi's ability, so I am ready to send you undercover to Shi Ziming's side." Unexpectedly, you accidentally got involved with Yang Zhaoji. Involved in the case of the White Lotus Sect. I don't know how Li Duo, that fool, feels now. Hey, hey, hey......"
The old emperor suddenly laughed wickedly, and the two fat cheeks kept shaking, as if they had thought of something funny.
Before that, Kang Ning only knew that his life had been arranged in advance, and later learned that the arrangement was closely related to Shi Ziming, and until today, he didn't know why the double agent named Li Duo had arranged it like this.
It turned out that it was because he had Zhang Song's ability.
What is Zhang Songzhi's ability?
"Ahh
Corning was taken aback with a smile in his heart, he didn't expect his ex to be an unforgettable guy.
Are you kidding?
Wasn't his golden finger already finalized?
Moreover, the so-called Zhang Songzhineng, since he inherited his predecessor's body, why has he never felt it.
Corning couldn't help but close his eyes and recall the bits and pieces of the sixty-two days.
After a few breaths, he opened his eyes and almost startled the old emperor who had experienced the vicissitudes of life.
That's right, those bits and pieces are really imprinted in my mind like carvings.
Could it be that the predecessor Zhang Songzhineng has never been discovered by himself.
"What's wrong with you?"
The old emperor saw that Kang Ning's expression was becoming more and more strange, and he couldn't help but ask.
Of course, Kang Ning would not tell him what he had discovered, so he had to change his words and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen, oh no, the grass people suddenly felt that this matter was strange. It seems that someone is trying to play the two princes between applause. Moreover, this matter is inseparable from the White Lotus Sect itself. ”
"I know that. What I heard was why you looked surprised. ”
"The grass people suddenly thought of someone."
Emperor Wanli had already guessed who he was going to say, shook his head and said, "This matter is definitely not Shi Ziming's doing. Both he and Qin Ming had the same idea, believing that the crown prince was not capable of ruling the Ming Dynasty at all. It's just that he is more inclined to the emperor's eldest grandson, Zhu Youxiao, while Qin Ming is more inclined to King Fu. You should also know that Qin Ming came from four hundred years later. He had told me that today's event was supposed to be for the crown prince to gain sympathy and widespread support, and to further consolidate the position of the prince. But this is what Shi Ziming doesn't want to see. Therefore, this matter has nothing to do with Shi Ziming. ”
Hearing this, Corning only felt his head buzz.
What did his peers do?
There was a traitor who told the native emperor the information four hundred years later.
Shocked, Corning felt that there was something wrong with it.
"Your Majesty, did Daoist Qin Ming let King Fu do something?"
"Why do you ask?"
"It was not the crown prince who fell to the ground, but His Royal Highness King Fu, who was injured trying to save his brother. In this way, the one who gets sympathy and has a stable position is the blessed king. ”
"You're smart."
The old emperor laughed, "Many years ago, Daoist Qin Ming told King Fu that he would go to Tai** Middle School on May 4 every year. If you encounter an assassination, you will play a bitter ploy. ”
Corning only felt thunder in the sky.
This Qin Ming, who is hiding in the core of power, is really not simple.
He can already make the wind and rain in Daming.
Kangning didn't want the emperor to see his logic, so he still pretended to be curious on the outside, and asked, "Why do you have to run once a year?" ”
"That's because Qin Ming four hundred years later is a big soldier, he has read few books, and he can't remember the year. He can remember the Fourth of May, as if it was a Youth Day. ”
Corning pursed his lips secretly, and said in his heart: These two May Fourth Days are not a calendar at all.
It's just the same number.
Speaking of this, the old emperor's voice suddenly rose up.
"Your protection of the crown prince and the blessed king today is a feat of the society. However, since you are interested in the imperial examination in the future. Then wait for you to be admitted to the Jinshi, and I will reward you together. ”
Kang Ning knew that the old emperor's words were for others, so he said very cooperatively: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for favoring you." ”
The old emperor nodded with satisfaction, turned around and dragged Luo Sigong to another corner, and began to ask questions.
Kang Ning slowly walked to King Fu's side, still looking directly at Brother Zhu Youxiao.
He was only inadvertently aware that the people around him were looking at him with strange eyes.
Kangning was a little puzzled as to why this group of people looked at him like this.
It wasn't until Zhu Youxiao slowly moved his steps to his side and whispered to him: "Brother can actually talk to Grandpa Huang." Brother knows that there are many important ministers in the court, and they have not seen Grandpa Huang for three or five years, let alone talked. ”
Only then did Corning understand what those people meant.
However, as far as he was concerned, the emperor just now was nothing more than a fat old man, an amiable janitor.
That's it.
As a traverser, he will logically fear the emperor who holds the power of life and death, but psychologically, facing such an old man with full personality is more of an equal exchange from later generations.
If Zhu Changxun was awake at this time, he would definitely understand this feeling.
But Zhu Youxiao couldn't understand, and Kangning wasn't prepared to let him understand.
Therefore, Corning suppressed this inconvenient expression in his heart, but expressed another logic on his lips.
"That's because the courtiers were fed all day long, and when your father and son were in danger, they didn't come to your aid. On the contrary, it was me, a mountain and wild horseman, who took a hand by chance. You say, who deserves more favor from His Majesty? Isn't it me, the righteous brother of the emperor's grandson, the guardian of the prince's life? ”
Zhu Youxiao was silent and left.
There was the laughter of the Wanli Emperor.
"Good! What a Corning! What a Han Ben! ”
Obviously, Wanli already knew the context of the matter from Luo Sigong.
It's just that Luo Sigong's report is not over yet.
I heard him still laugh and say, "Your Majesty, your reward for Kangning seems inappropriate. According to Qinming's statement, the matter in Shandong may not be settled until seven or eight years later. And by that time, your grandson was already ......"
Wanli glared at Luo Sigong fiercely, so frightened that he didn't dare to speak again.
After a long time, Emperor Wanli sighed and said in a low voice: "By then, I will no longer be alive, and I will not be able to fulfill today's reward, right?" ”
"Weichen damn it! Your Majesty's longevity knows no bounds! ”
"Nope."
The old emperor shook his head gently, "The name Wanli can be used for nearly fifty years, I should be content." ”
Luo Sigong didn't dare to answer, but just resignedly: "Weichen is a capital crime." ”
The old emperor ignored him, suddenly turned around, and said loudly, "I already know the ins and outs of the matter. The guilty will naturally be brought to trial by the three legal divisions. For those who have merit, it looks like they need to reassess their rewards. ”
