Chapter 608: The Little Emperor was tempted, and Liu Jin jumped to his feet in a hurry

Zhu Houzhao thought about Xu Xun's two reactions. One is naturally that Xu Xun has been in love with himself for many years, and he knows his thoughts well, plus he said before that he would accompany him to the great rivers and mountains of the Ming Dynasty, this time he will not only agree with his ideas, but also go with him; The other is that Xu Xun is now looking forward and looking forward to his mother-in-law and mother-in-law like those old adults, and he is talking about the son of his daughter all day long, trying his best to dissuade him from going out of Beijing and dispel his intention to tour the south.

However, at this moment, Xu Xun's two sentences really made him a little confused. Zhu Houzhao, who fell into a stupor, took a long time before he frowned and said: "Xu Xun, I know that you never believe in the river, but if you have no tangible evidence, you should know very well what the rumors will be!" ”

"It's because the minister is very clear, so he took it out and said it." Xu Xun glanced at the people scattered around him, and then said, "First, during Yang Shen's sue of King Ning and followed Qian Ning to Jiangxi, the emperor should have heard the kind words of King Ning's kindness and friendship, right?" The emperor doesn't have to answer the micro-minister, if there is, the minister just wants to ask, King Ning is far away in Jiangxi, and he is a pro-vassal who is not allowed to leave the fiefdom half a step away from the edict, why can he be praised by the palace servants, if he doesn't need money to buy it, can there be such a reason? ”

Seeing that Zhu Houzhao was really a little moved by what he said, Xu Xun, who had already learned the accurate information from Rayson and Watkins, knew that the cannon had worked, so he said in a tone at home: "Second, it is the matter of King Ning's protection." As a pro-vassal domain, local officials must be respected, and the country gentry dare not dare to be disobedient, and it is enough to have a guard of honor, but why is it to seek to restore the guards that have been abolished for decades? And at the same time as recovering the guard, he had a close relationship with the officials of the Jiangxi Metropolitan Division, and ignored the imperial court's ban on relatives and vassals not to befriend officials, isn't it ill-intentioned? ”

After saying this second article, Zhu Houzhao's face became extremely grim for a while. The little emperor just doesn't like to be troublesome, as long as he doesn't hide big things. He doesn't mind letting his ministers deal with the day-to-day chores of business, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have some acumen at all. At this moment, Zhu Houzhao actually took the initiative to ask: "What else?" ”

"And ......" Xu Xun paused slightly under Zhu Houzhao's obviously attentive gaze. Only then did he say word by word, "It is not surprising that the royal palace doubled the year and forcibly seized the official land and people's property, which was common among the feudal domains during the reign of the previous emperors." However, the killing of innocent people is a bit strange. If it's just bullying men and women, it's fine. But among the people killed by Ning Fan, there are many scholars, and the minister asked Jinyiwei to investigate, there are already one or twenty people who have disappeared before and after, and although the local government has filed a case, it cannot try and close the case, and now this is a pile of unsolved cases. And more importantly...... According to investigation, Ning Wangfu has a situation of saving death. ”

This last one seemed to be the last straw that broke the camel's back, which moved Zhu Houzhao with horror. He gasped. He immediately asked categorically: "Are you sure about this?" ”

"The emperor forgives the sin, this matter is a minister overstepping his authority." He said forgiveness, but Xu Xun did not have the slightest expression of sincere fear on his face. Instead, Zhengse said, "The minister asked Nanjing Jinyi Wei to command Chen Lu to order the secret agent to visit Jiangxi. In the past two years, bandits and horses in Jiangxi have become more rampant than in southern Jinan, and the robberies of merchants and so on are often murderous and oversold goods, and the local government cannot control them. And such a number of people, according to the investigation, have some relationship with Ning Fan, and even some signs that they ...... There are one or two ringing horse thieves in Jinan, and they are also a little disconnected from Jiangxi. ”

Although Fu Rong is old and retired, although Zheng Qiang is in the name of the eunuch of the ceremonial eunuch and the eunuch of the first Nanjing garrison, his health is even worse than Fu Rong. So Chen Lu, who had finally survived to the commander of Nanjing Jinyiwei, naturally seemed to be alone, Xu Xun dialed a little, how could Chen Lu not rush forward and be willing to drive? And this matter was explained by Liu Jin after Liu Jin sought revenge for King Ning last year, and it took a year of secret investigation and secret visits, and the case file from Nanjing in his study was more than a foot thick? …,

That's all it takes. Zhu Houzhao suddenly showed an expression of annoyance and dissatisfaction. He couldn't help pacing back and forth, and suddenly looked at Xu Xun and said, "Since this matter has been investigated so thoroughly, why do you still want to go in person, and you have to pull Liu Jin?" ”

"Your Majesty, the matter of recovering the guard, after all, is supported by Gonggong Liu. If King Ning is investigated so thoroughly, Gonggong Liu will not say anything on his face, and he will inevitably think that he is a troublemaker and intends to make him look good. The emperor also knows that now Father-in-law Liu and his ministers are not as good as before, and they are not very harmonious. ”

Xu Xun straightforwardly picked out the relationship between himself and Liu Jin, and was not surprised to see Zhu Houzhao, but he just frowned and showed a stunned face, and he continued: "The palms and backs of his hands are full of meat, and the minister knows that this is through, and the most uncomfortable thing in his heart is the emperor, so he originally planned to settle with Hexi, but Nanjing sent such news, and the minister really can't just press it down." If the minister goes to Jiangxi to find out something, Gonggong Liu must think that the minister is framing, so it is better to drag him with him. He has always been loyal to the emperor, but when he found out that Ning Fan was plotting against him, he would never tolerate it again, and everything would be easy to say at that time. ”

This time he put the facts and reasoned, and put on a high hat of understanding the righteousness of Liu Jin, who was not present, Xu Xun said slowly: "In addition, Gonggong Liu must have advised the emperor not to tour the south before, right?" Although the advice of the ministers who made the emperor unhappy and advised the emperor not to leave Beijing was contrary to the ear, including Gonggong Liu, they were all worried about the emperor's safety. ”

This is to exonerate all those who dissuade the emperor. If he took it out directly just now, Zhu Houzhao would not be able to listen to it, but Xu Xun successfully diverted Zhu Houzhao's attention through the previous list of facts, although he frowned at this time, he did not say anything to ridicule. After a long time, the little emperor shook his head slightly.

"That's the end of that, you let me think about it, think about it."

"Yes, the matter is very high, and I ask the emperor to consider it. It's just that the minister asked the emperor not to leak the news, and it must be known that Chen Lu also cautiously sent several people to investigate, and they did not belong to each other, and they did not know the real purpose. Now that the battle is full, except for the emperor and the ministers, no one in the capital knows about it. ”

"Yes, I see."

Qian Ning, who was waiting outside, saw Xu Xun striding over after saluting, and quickly replaced his anxious expression with a face full of concern. However. He stepped forward and cautiously asked a few words, but seeing that Xu Xun's face was tired and he couldn't find anything, he temporarily dismissed the idea of talking about this Pingbei marquis. After seeing the people leave, he rushed to Zhu Houzhao in three steps and two steps, and then asked tentatively: "Your Majesty, did the Marquis of Pingbei oppose your southern tour just now?" ”

"Don't say it, I'm very tired right now, let's go back to the palace first!"

Since the wedding, Zhu Houzhao has lived in the leopard room in Xiyuan for fewer and fewer days, and this time Qian Ning knows that he must return to Kunning Palace again. He diligently sent Zhu Houzhao to the door of Xihua. Seeing that the little emperor took Ruisheng and a few retinue eunuchs to walk down the Heavenly Street with a heavy heart, the smile on his face suddenly turned into frost.

I heard that Liu Jin's advice yesterday was also full of ashes, why did Xu Xun come and the little emperor's reaction was very different?

It is no secret that Xu Xun saw Zhu Houzhao in the Xiyuan martial arts arena. Or, in other words, now that all eyes are staring at Zhu Houzhao, for fear that he will go on his own way to the south if he is really not good, this meeting almost reached the ears of the bigwigs in the court and the big men in the palace in the fastest time. Although the two gentlemen and ministers withdrew from all outsiders while they talked. But the reaction afterwards was that countless people saw it. Therefore, not only did Qian Ning conclude that Xu Xun must persuade Zhu Houzhao not to tour south, but everyone else also thought so. Including Liu Jin. …,

Although Liu Jin also touched his nose with ashes, and Xu Xun was treated a little embarrassed than himself, as long as he could achieve the result of Zhu Houzhao's dispelling of this intention, he could barely accept it. It's just that when he returned to the private house this night, he invited Zhang Cai to come to drink with him, and he had to complain a few words, but he soon threw it away. However, after the discussion in the Wenhua Hall the next day, Zhu Houzhao called him to the Taisu Hall in Xiyuan. He sat on a stool and reached the ground before entering. I saw a familiar and unforgettable figure.

It's Seo Hoon!

"Liu Jin, I dreamed of Emperor Taizu yesterday, blaming me for not being filial, and I have never been to the filial tomb when I am so old." Zhu Houzhao calmly threw out such the biggest excuse, and seeing that Liu Jin's face was extremely nervous, he said unhurriedly. "I know that there is some criticism from top to bottom about the Southern Tour, so I don't plan to screw it with the civil and military officials. But I don't want to hand this matter over to others, you and Xu Xun are my henchmen, let's go together. ”

As soon as these words came out, Liu Jin was stunned, and he was so stunned. If it weren't for Xu Xun still going to follow him, he almost thought that he would end up with Qiu Ju, and he would be driven out of the capital together! It took a lot of effort for him to calm down, but in a panic, he almost bit his tongue, and even stammered a little when he spoke.

"The Emperor...... Your Majesty, your ...... Isn't this a joke? ”

"It's such a big thing, I'm kidding you guys!" Zhu Houzhao straightened his face, and then said naturally as if he was eating and drinking, "In addition, regarding the matter of Ning Fan, you should go to Nanchang together to find out what is going on!" You are the people I trust the most, and I believe you can give me the best answer. ”

Liu Jin instinctively glanced at Xu Xun, and saw that Xu Xun had no surprised expression, and immediately bowed down and agreed, he suddenly realized that this matter was Xu Xun's proposal. His first reaction was that Xu Xun had a conspiracy, intending to trick himself into leaving the capital and then disadvantage himself, but the little emperor's next words made him understand that blindly shirking it might be counterproductive.

"Liu Jin, the matter of Ning Fan's restoration of the guard was the one you advocated at the beginning, and now there are different opinions below, so you have to give an explanation, and it is most appropriate for you to go in person about this matter. As for Xu Xun, I'm afraid you won't be happy if he stays in the capital when you're outside, so I simply let the two of you go together, as for who else you want, even if you pick it yourself, I will give it to whoever you choose! ”

The little emperor's meaning seemed to be that he Liu Jin wanted to go in person, and he brought Xu Xun just so that he wouldn't be picky and unwilling to leave! But since this matter was brought up by Xu Xun, he must have been prepared accordingly, he can't just be fooled! Even if he is blamed for what happened before, he has to save this situation! Whether it is a waterway or land, a waterway can capsize, a land route can fall a horse, how many lives does he have that can withstand this toss? Moreover, Xu Xun has a deep foundation in the army, if he really leaves like this, it is impossible for him to come back!

At this moment, thinking of this, Liu Jin suddenly gritted his teeth and knelt down. He didn't care about Zhu Houzhao's eyes suddenly turning cold, but he said with shame on his face: "Your Majesty, about the matter of Ning Fan, the slave maid already has a situation to report to the emperor. ”

I think that when the incident happened, Liu Jin had the idea of abandoning the pawn to protect the car, and when Qian Ning came back to avoid the serious, he reported it lightly, and then accepted a large bribe from Roddick, so he temporarily pressed this heart. But this time he was forced to this by Xu Xun's sudden move, he had to make up his mind, kowtowed before he said bitterly: "It was Zhang Wenmian, a staff member of the slave maid's family, who accepted a large bribe from Ning Wangfu, so he repeatedly said in the slave maid's ear that King Ning's filial piety, benevolence, kindness and many other benefits, the slave and maid were confused by him, so he made such a suggestion to the emperor." After all, King Ning and the emperor should be uncles and nephews in terms of seniority, and after ascending the throne, King Enning will also show the righteousness of relatives......"

Seeing that Liu Jin really put all the charges on Zhang Wenmian, he only admitted the charge of negligence, and then sold the gift-giving Roddick with his backhand, Xu Xun showed a surprised expression on his face, but he was very satisfied with the effect of his hand to force the palace.

Liu Jin really didn't dare to go out of Beijing, let alone walk with him! In order to dispel the emperor's fate, Liu Jin did not hesitate to draw a line with King Ning at once, and even put the blame on others!

Zhu Houzhao, who was sitting there, was stunned and watched Liu Jin babbling about how he was deceived and deceived by others, and made people secretly track down, how many heavy bribes Zhang Wenmian had received in the past year or so, interceding for others, etc., his brows furrowed little by little, and his face became colder and colder for a while. I don't know how long it took before he said in a voice that even he felt cold: "In this case, the bell must be tied to the bell, and this case has to be handled by you!" As for Zhang Wenmian and Roddick, you can clean up the basket you poked out. I don't care! (To be continued.)
