The two pedestrians from the pedestrian division who came to the capital to deliver the decree, as well as twenty people who accompanied the Jinyi guard.

The two pedestrians were both scholars in their thirties, and Yuan Zonggao talked around and didn't ask anything. These two are foreign ministers, and the news in the palace is just a rumor.

What can be asked from their mouths is that there are frequent out-of-phase appearances in the capital after the New Year, and the people are panicked. There are also various speculations about the dragon body in the present.

Lu Song was responsible for entertaining the two brocade guards.

Although he is now powerful in the palace, he still has the position of Jinyi Weishi, but he is the general flag, which is just one level higher than the small flag, and there is not too much difference between respect and inferiority.

After chatting carefully, there is a father with a small flag who was a subordinate of Lu Song's father in his early years.

At the wine table, as soon as the relationship climbs up, the conversation becomes much closer.

It's just a small banner of Jinyiwei, and where can I get in touch with confidential matters, what I say is just the well-known courtier dynamics, market rumors, and the like.

From his words, Lu Song learned a news that Jin Yiwei's top boss Ping Yubo Zhu Bin changed the regimental training camp to the mighty regiment training camp and appointed the commander.

Zhu Bin's real name is Jiang Bin, originally a border general of Xuanfu, because of the favor and today, he was ordered to lead the army of the four towns of the border city back to Beijing, stayed in the capital, and later commanded Dongchang and Jinyi Wei, and was one of the most powerful people in Beijing.

He was accepted as a righteous son by Jinshang and given the surname "Zhu".

In other dynasties, even if you don't really have a dragon son and a dragon grandson, you can be the "righteous son" of the emperor, and your status is definitely higher than that of the minister of civil and military affairs.

However, whether it is the Ming clan or the minister of civil and military affairs, few people recognize the identity of those "righteous sons" today.

Although Emperor Zhengde did not give birth to a son, he loved to accept a righteous son, and when he saw a clever and pleasing one, he accepted it as a "righteous son". In the seventh year of Zhengde, there were already 127 righteous sons. It's a bit of a collection of talents, just like the beasts in the leopard room that are collected.

Maybe there are a lot of people, whether it is the emperor or the courtiers, they do not treat these emperors with surnames "righteous sons" differently, originally small flags or small flags, originally gave up people or gave up people. Except for a few who can flatter, they have won the joy of today, they are extraordinarily important, and they have risen all the way, most of them are still the same.

Seven years after Zhengde, the enthusiasm for receiving "righteous sons" has weakened a lot, but more than 20 people have increased in a few years.

Added together, the number of "righteous sons" in this day is more than one hundred and fifty, and if they all take it seriously, then the princes and ministers of the capital will not be able to live.

But who dares to offend Zhu Bin?

Zhu Bin's four-town border army camp is in Tongzhou, and he is also the supreme commander of the Shenwu Battalion of the Forbidden Army, and he is in charge of the brave battalion of the forbidden army with another righteous son today, and he holds the Jinyi Guard and Dongchang Tiqi in his hands, and now he has added the regimental camp.

The drill regimental camp is Zhu Bin's proposal, and people who can ride and shoot are selected from the inner attendants to practice in the inner area.

Admiral Zhu Bin did not just add more than 1,000 eunuchs as his subordinates, but touched the power from outside the palace to the palace.

Regardless of whether Zhu Bin is antipathic or not, he does have the ability to "cover the sky with one hand".

Lu Song just listened, and he felt frightened. After three rounds of drinking, the two colonels were martial artists in the end, and they were bold and had fewer scruples when they spoke, so they said a rumor in the officialdom of the capital that Zhu Bin was going to rebel.

Lu Song's heart was raised, no matter whether Zhu Bin was against it or not, since there were such rumors, it was forcing him to rebel.

Now that he is seriously ill and has not been in court for several months, Zhu Bin can still get the will of the commander's regiment, which shows that there are people around the emperor who echo.

Lu Song was angry and thought of the "grace" of the palace this time.

The emperor is seriously ill and bedridden, so who does this "grace" mean?

Ordering someone to place the two drunken flags, Lu Song hurried to the Qiyun Palace.

Shizi was talking to Yuan Zonggao, and when he saw Lu Song looking at the two of them with an anxious face, both of them looked at Lu Song.

Lu Song was not verbose, and directly said the news he got from the two small flags.

Yuan Zonggao and Shizi both changed their faces.

Zhu Bin has a heavy army in his hand, and Zhu Bin is an internal official, what is going on with this "grace"?

Could it be that the queen mother and cabinet ministers were wary of Zhu Bin's rebellion, so they ordered the prince to "pre-attack as the king"? Because the prince does not inherit the prince's title, he cannot justifiably "serve as the king".

Dozens of kings of the Ming Dynasty have been founded, and now the court is really in trouble, and the ones who can really be trusted are the sons of Emperor Xianzong, the sons of Emperor Xiaozong, and the uncles of today.

These princes have only been in the domain for more than 20 years, and even if they have children and grandchildren, they are only the first county kings, and the local power is not deep, unlike those princely mansions that have been passed down for generations, and the forces behind them are complicated.

If the capital is unstable, then the worst plan of the imperial court is to rush the kings to the north to "King Qin". But if you alarm the big feudal clans like Chu, Shu, Zhou, and Qin, it will be to drive wolves at the front door and tigers at the back door.

Only a small feudal domain like Xingguo can be relieved by the imperial court, and there is no need to worry about the tail not falling off.

Shizi was stunned, and only after half a sound did he say: "The situation in the capital is already critical? ”

Yuan Zonggao is old, and he said calmly: "Your Highness has not yet performed a child ceremony, and the princess should be asked to make decisions in the palace, and the same is true for this matter." ”

Since ancient times, there have been several good vassal kings of the "King of Qin". If the corresponding troops are stronger, they will be feared by the court; If there are fewer soldiers, it will be just cannon fodder.

Jiangxi Wang Shouren made great contributions to quelling the rebellion, and what he received was not a commendation, but an attack. If it weren't for his good popularity, and there would be someone to protect the ministers and chamberlains, not only would he lose his life, but the entire family might be implicated.

Do more wrong, do less wrong, don't do good, who is patient to raise the power of the vassal country, and strive for what "the merit of the king of diligence".

Shizi only felt depressed in his heart, and knew that Yuan Zonggao's suggestion was appropriate.

Since Jingzhong's "Grace" said that he was a "child" who relied on his mother and concubine to come forward to make the decision, then he would be better as a child.

Children don't look at each other, they only know how to do what they are told. If there is no will to make the world clear, it is not moving; Even if he has the will of the world, he is "young" and difficult to take care of.

This is a major matter related to the survival of the palace, and the three of them did not dare to slack off, so they immediately went out of the Qiyun Palace and went to the Fengxiang Palace to see the princess.

Before the news in the capital was unclear, the palace was afraid that the princess would have to come forward.

Because of this inexplicable will, the princess was upset, and when she heard that her son had brought Yuan Zonggao and Lu Song together, she pressed down her anxiety and ordered the three of them to meet in the main hall.

Yuan Zonggao is very old, Lu Song is the guard of the prince before his death, and he came with the prince, but the princess did not set up a screen, and came out directly to meet everyone.

After listening to everyone's speculation, the princess's face was even more ugly.

Xingwangfu is different from other palaces, there is only one male in the palace, the prince, if there is a case, Xingfan will be removed from the country.

Thinking of this, the hand in the princess's sleeve trembled slightly.

As early as when she was in Anlu and knew that the two princes who had been in Anlu before were childless, the princess had some taboos in her heart.

After the death of her eldest son and eldest daughter, she was almost desperate.

Even though she gave birth to three more children one after another, the princess had a heart disease in the end.

Now I heard that behind this inexplicable "grace", it may be that the capital is in danger, and the kings are "King Qin".

The princess's heart is pinched, the sword and arrow are ruthless, if her son has a mistake, she will not live, and the two county lords are also miserable, and there is no one to rely on.

Thinking of this, the princess gritted her teeth and said: "There are only palace guards in the name of the palace, and Xuan'er is young, where can she bear this heavy responsibility?" Let's wait for the will of Beijing, and I will come forward to deal with it. Before the exact news came back, it was better for the palace to close its doors. ”

Although the palace also has news exchanges with the capital, there is no such important matter as "Zhu Bin may rebel", which shows that the informant is not useful.

Thinking of this, the princess looked at the prince and said, "You can't sit still, do you send two proper people to Beijing as soon as possible to inquire about the news in Beijing?" ”

The prince squinted his eyes, the princess said that the right person is a person who can be trusted. There are thousands of people in the palace, but how many are "proper"?

The internal officials are all allocated from the palace, and they serve in the palace, and they also have the meaning of supervision; The subordinate officials with high grades are selected by the officials; The subordinate officials of low grade are all local scholars, where do they dare to entrust major affairs at will?

He thought for a while and said, "Mother, let Wang Qi go?" Uncle Wang Qi was in Beijing, and he entered Beijing in the name of 'visiting relatives', and he didn't pay attention. ”

Although the princess knew that her mother's family was inappropriate and restrained from time to time, it can be seen that her son relied on the Wang family so much, and she was not comfortable in her heart. However, I also know that there are few people in the palace who should be used.

The vassal king said that he was the lord of a country, but in fact he was just a disguised confinement, and the inner servants and subordinate officials were all the eyes of the court. It is precisely for this reason that King Xing chose his son to read with him early, so that his son could train his henchmen.

Now that the survival of the palace is involved, the princess let go of the mustard in her heart, nodded and said, "Very good......"

By the time the prince finished discussing things with the princess, it was already dinner time.

Lu Song and Yuan Zonggao retired first, and the prince took the initiative to stay with the princess for dinner.

The prince looked at the princess's panic and anxiety pretending to be calm, and he was not relieved in front of Yuan Lu and the others, and when only the mother and son were left, he had to comfort them.

"The mother is just too worried. Jiang Bin is a small person's ear, but he is arrogant for a while. Ning Wangfu collected the savings of several generations, and prepared for more than ten years, but in the end it was just a thunderstorm and a small raindrop. Jiang Bin is just a martial artist in the border city, and he is fortunate to be flattering, and he is also a traitor. What if the anti-flag is raised? Even the surname Zhu is a fake surname, not a descendant of Taizu. If the name is not right, it won't be able to make trouble for a long time. As long as the palace is stable, it will not be able to compete for the merit of the 'diligent king', and it will be peaceful. Shizi said.

The princess listened to her son's words, and her heart gradually became more steady. She took her son's hand, said with red eyes: "Yes, we are not greedy for those, what are we afraid of?" I just want my son to be safe......"

She couldn't help but think of the good coming of "Sanqing Sect Master" and "Taishang Laojun".

That is, his own son, who was exposed to his husband's ears and eyes when he was a child, is quite concerned about Taoism, and is not very concerned about power and the like. In the past, the princess didn't want her son to be like this, but now it seems that who knows whether it is a blessing or a curse?

If it is an ordinary teenager, if he has such an opportunity to "show his face", he will definitely dance happily, where would he care about the danger...... When the prince came out of the Fengxiang Palace, he did not freely speed up his pace, and instructed Huang Jindao: "Go to the mansion to learn to pass on Qilang and Erlang...... and Chen Chizhong......"

Huang Jin answered and trotted away.

In the Lequn Courtyard, Wang Qi had dinner and was in Lai's room.

He leaned on the couch, pinched his fingers and said, "It's late March now, and the original school will not be disbanded until His Royal Highness becomes a child." But now that there is a decree to order His Highness to 'pre-attack as the king', the school should be disbanded from time to time? ”

Dao Idiot thought about the appearance of the prince on the side, shook his head and said: "After all, if you don't give a ceremony, Your Highness is afraid that you won't be able to take care of Fuxue for a while." ”

Wang Qi laughed twice and said, "If it should be disbanded, it will be disbanded, the province still spends half a day to go to school every day, wasting a good spring." Except for Erlang and Lu Xiaozi who are still young and study for two more years, everyone else is enlightened when they remember, who is impatient to go to school? ”

Dao idiot said: "Seventh brother can endure it again, maybe it won't take a few days." ”

Wang Qi thought for a while and said: "Erlang is right, although the prince did not perform a ceremony, but he also worshipped the temple, the palace changed its mouth, after these two days of chaos, thinking of the school, it should ......be stopped."

As he was talking, he heard someone say through the door: "Seventh son, second son, summoned by His Royal Highness." ”

Huang Jin is here.

Wang Qi and Dao Idiot glanced at each other, pushed the door and walked out of the house.

Huang Jin repeated what he had just said, then nodded to the two of them, and then went to the door next door and said, "Gongzi Chen, Your Highness summons." ”

Chen Chizhong's house was next to the house of the Taoist idiot, and Huang Jin was talking outside the door again, so Chen Chizhong could hear clearly.

Although I don't know what happened to the prince, I can add him when summoning the brothers of the Wang family. Chen Chizhong's heart was a little excited, maybe he still had a choice before, whether to take over the Daomen, or struggle for fame and fortune; But when he took over the 500 acres of land from the son, he had no choice.

Without a son, not only could he not keep the field, but his life could not be harmed. Whether it was for selfish gain or something, he was willing to give 100% of his loyalty to the Son.

The three of them followed Huang Jin and hurried out of the Lequn Courtyard.

Liu Congyun stood in front of the window, looking at the backs of everyone, and finally lost the smile on his face.

The prince of the world is "pre-attacking as the king", and it won't be long before they will officially supplement their subordinate officials. is also a companion, but the relationship with the son of the world, but there is distance and proximity, which is not what he wants.

He was originally a smart man, and he had long found out that the prince was cold to him.

is also a child of the fourth surname, although the prince has long been kind to Wang Qi, but before and after the prince's funeral, it is still obviously different.

Before was polite and cordial, but later it was really regarded as his own family, in the final analysis, it was because Wang Qi was the appointed Sanyi guest, and there was a relationship between in-laws.

The Liu family is in the Anlu realm, and the only way to improve their status is to become the in-laws of the royal palace.

Don't talk about others, just talk about the Jiang family. Before the death of the prince, there were many courtesies.

Even if it is not as good as the scenery before, it is to blame. But even so, because it is the princess's family, who dares to provoke in the Anlu realm? It's not flattery, even Zhizhou's son and nephew have to call themselves "little brother" when they see Jiang Lin......
