Xiao Fan's words fell, and everyone in the hall suddenly froze, and then their eyes turned to Zhu Di, their eyes full of doubt.

Zhu Yunwen looked at Zhu Di with a calm face, it seemed that he had understood the meaning of Xiao Fan's words.

Zhu Di's old face turned red, he clenched his fists, slowly took a step forward, and said with angry eyes: "Xiao Fan, speak clearly, who has mistaken the country and the king?" ”

Xiao Fan flicked the sleeve of his official uniform, faced Zhu Yuanzhang and said lightly: "Your Majesty, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the Northern Yuan Tartars are deeply afraid of Your Majesty's Tianwei, and have always avoided the grassland desert. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang's face was calm and silent, and his old face could not see joy or anger at all.

Zhu Di's face, which was flushed with anger, slowly faded in an instant, and even faintly pale.

Xiao Fan continued: "There must be a reason for things to go wrong, the Northern Yuan Tartars are not stupid, they do not hesitate to risk being chased and suppressed by my great soldiers, and they will raise the strength of the clan to attack Beiping, there must be a reason for this, His Royal Highness King Yan, as far as the minister knows, the Qiergis tribe is not far from your fiefdom Beiping City, His Royal Highness has led the army in Beiping for many years, this time the Northern Yuan Tartar soldiers surrounded Beiping, doesn't His Highness know the reason at all?" ”

Zhu Di had a straight face, and said in a stiff tone: "This king has just entered the Beijing Dynasty to see his father as soon as spring begins, and all the defense of Beiping is handed over to Zhang Yu, the commander of the left guard of the Yan Wangfu, to take care of. ”

Xiao Fan said with a smile: "Your Highness doesn't know, but the minister can guess, there are no more than two possibilities, one is that someone secretly colluded with the Qiergis Department to create the illusion of sending troops to encircle Beiping, and second, someone sent a small force to sneak into the desert and deliberately provoke the Qiergis Department by provocative means, and caused the tribe to attack Beiping at the expense of the whole clan......"

Zhu Di sneered: "Huangkou Xiaoer, talk about military affairs in vain, talk about the river, if according to your meaning, my Beiping garrison has internal annihilation?" Even if there is internal annihilation, what is the benefit of doing so for my Ming Dynasty? ”

"Of course there are benefits, but it is not my Ming court that gets the benefits, but individuals, I have always felt that no matter who or what he does, there is always a purpose for him......"

The corners of Zhu Di's eyes jumped, and he said coldly: "Then you say, what is the purpose of my people in Beiping Mansion doing this?" ”

Xiao Fan smiled and did not answer him directly, but talked about another allusion: "During the Warring States Period, the battle between Qi and Wei Guiling, the Wei [***] team besieged Handan, the capital of Zhao State, and the two sides fought for more than a year, and Zhao declined and Wei was tired. At this time, in response to Zhao's request for help, Qi sent Tian Ji as a general and Sun Bin as a military advisor, leading 80,000 troops to rescue Zhao. Tian Ji accepted Sun Bin's plan, avoided the real and made it false, and took advantage of the fact that the elite of Wei State besieged Zhao State, and when the internal emptiness was empty, he led the army to surround the capital of Wei State, and Pang Juan, the general of Wei State, was shocked, and hurriedly led the army back to the division to save himself, and the crisis of Zhao State was solved. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this, and said: "What Xiao Aiqing said, is it an allusion to 'encircling Wei to save Zhao'?" ”

"Your Majesty's eyes are like torches, exactly."

Zhu Yuanzhang said in a calm tone: "You use this allusion in this day and now, there must be a reason." Let me ask you, who is 'Wei'? ”

"Naturally, it's Beiping City."

"Who is 'Zhao'?"

Xiao Fan smiled silently, but just glanced at Zhu Di as if he was inadvertent.

Zhu Di was shocked by Xiao Fan's glance, his face turned pale, and he raised his hand to point at Xiao Fan and said angrily: "You...... Xiao Fan, you dare to frame this king with black mouth and white teeth! ”

Xiao Fan smiled calmly and said: "Your Highness, the minister just said an allusion, neither naming nor surname, is it a bit of a ...... Well, do the taste of a thief? ”

Zhu Di was so angry that his body trembled violently for a while, and then lifted the hem of the king's robe, knelt down at Zhu Yuanzhang, and sobbed: "Father, the son of the son has made meritorious contributions to the Daming Society and killed countless enemies, the son of the son to the father of the emperor can be seen from the sky, when the number of expeditions to the grassland desert, the head of the Northern Yuan Tartar was cut off, this Xiao Fan pointed to the son and scolded Huai, implying that the son has a heart of disobedience, the son is now said to be indisputable, if the father does not believe in the loyalty of the son, I only ask you to give the son a death, and then dig out the heart of the son and show it to the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, See if there is a word 'loyalty' engraved on it! ”

After that, Zhu Di slammed his head on the carpet, trembling all over, and he couldn't cry.

Xiao Fan saw that the opportunity could not be missed, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, why don't you try it according to what His Royal Highness King Yan said......

Everyone is full of black lines: "............"

Everyone in the hall is a high-ranking and powerful person, and those who can climb to this position in the court are certainly not stupid.

Before, the beggar Jisi troops besieged Beiping, and the incident was too strange, and the ministers began to mumble in their hearts, and then Xiao Fan said the allusion to the siege of Wei to save Zhao, and the ministers in the palace suddenly understood.

Zhu Yuanzhang's expression gradually froze, his eyes looked suspiciously at Zhu Di, who was lying on the ground and crying, and glanced at Xiao Fan, who looked calm, his expression became more and more complicated, and his eyes flashed with a light that no one could understand.

With a long sigh, Zhu Yuanzhang leaned his head on the back of the chair infinitely tired, slowly closed his eyes, and said: "This matter is important, Zhong Aiqing will go back and take a closer look, whether to send King Yan back to Beiping to lead the army, or send another general to mobilize the officers and troops of thousands of households around Beiping Mansion to encircle and suppress the Qi'er Jisi Department, you all think about it, and then write it in the notebook and send it to the Imperial Library." ”

The ministers said in unison: "Obey the order." ”

Zhu Di's face turned pale, and even his lips began to tremble unconsciously.

Things in the world, success is simple, defeat is simple, the carefully planned plan to encircle Wei to save Zhao, I thought that I could easily force Zhu Yuanzhang to let him go back to Beiping to take up the domain, but unexpectedly killed a Xiao Fan halfway, and in a few words, his intentions were exposed.

If Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't let him go back to Beiping, what hope is there for the great cause he planned in this life? Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang's body is not as good as day by day, if Zhu Yunwen ascends the throne after his death, even if the new emperor can't bear to kill him, the imperial uncle, won't Xiao Fan, the important minister next to him, kill him in a different way? Judging from the grudge they formed, how could Xiao Fan let him go?

Zhu Di instantly felt cold in his hands and feet, and a chill spread from the top of his head to his heels.

The ministers walked out of the palace gate one after another, and Zhu Di got into the carriage without saying a word.

As soon as the delicate wooden door of the carriage was closed, Zhu Di clenched his fists and smashed a fist on the wall of the hollowed-out jade-inlaid carriage.

There was a loud bang, sawdust splashed, and he smashed a large hole in the wall of the carriage.

Outside the carriage, the guards of the Yan Palace's Mansion were shocked and asked one after another, "Lord Wang, what's wrong with you?" ”

Zhu Ditie's face was blue, and his eyes exuded a vicious light.

"Xiao Fan, you must die!"

Xiao Fan walked out of the palace gate, his heart was very heavy.

If Zhu Di, the king of Yan, returns to Beiping, as soon as Zhu Yuanzhang dies, Zhu Di will rebel.

Only by leaving Zhu Di in Beijing and letting him be a powerless and powerless prince for the rest of his life, this military disaster can be avoided.

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, including Zhu Yuanzhang, were more or less aware of Zhu Di's ambitions, but they would never believe that Zhu Di would brazenly rebel under the banner of "Jingnan" in the second year after Zhu Yuanzhang's death, but ...... How do you convince them?

Xiao Fan really wanted to go back to the 21st century and bring this history textbook, and then gather the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, pointing to the words in the textbook and telling them: In the first year of Jianwen, Yan Shiguan rebelled in the name of "Jing Nan" and finally usurped the throne...... Of course, if you can go back to the 21st century, by the way, you can clean up the grocery store owner who sells fake wine.

Xiao Fan let out a sigh and looked up at the night sky, the night sky was full of stars, and the evening breeze was blowing, with a bit of early summer heat.

What should I think of to let Zhu Di stay in Beijing forever?

Xiao Fan's mind was very confused, and when he was blown by the evening breeze, he suddenly remembered that Zhu Yuanzhang had assigned homework to his ministers, and Beiping was besieged, and he had to write a recital for Lao Zhu.

Xiao Fan scratched his head and fell into a dilemma.

Writing a notebook is a technical job, although Xiao Fan is now from the royal gift and Jinshi, but his Jinshi identity is after all the royal gift, even his talent identity is a cheating with the help of the Hanlin Bachelor, so to speak, Xiao Fan can only be regarded as a semi-literate now, and the only words that can be written well are nothing more than inscriptions such as "Jinyi Wei Tongzhi Xiao Fan Gift", which is still barely able to get his hands on it after studying hard and practicing for a long time.

Such a semi-literate ...... to write a recital for the current emperor - I don't know if Lao Zhu can read and understand simplified characters...... Xiao Fan decided to get the matter done first, no matter what, this is also the first time Zhu Yuanzhang has assigned him homework, and this face must be given.

Walking across the Jinshui Bridge, Xiao Fan hesitated, then turned around and walked to the right.

Jinyiwei Zhenfu Si Yamen is on the right side of Jinshui Bridge.

Xiao Fan came to the door of the yamen, it was empty, only a few Jinyi lieutenants walked back and forth, and when they saw Lord Tongzhi coming in late at night, everyone was stunned, and then respectfully hugged his fists and saluted.

Xiao Fan held his hand, nodded lightly, and said, "Who else is in the yamen?" ”

A Jinyi lieutenant said, "Cao Qianhu and several hundred households are inside...... Uh, on duty. ”

Xiao Fan said with a clear face: "On duty or drinking?" ”

“…… Drink. ”

"Go and call Cao Qianhu out."

Not long after, Cao Yi, who was drunk and blushing, came out with a wine burp, and saw Xiao Fan standing in the middle of the front hall of the yamen with his hands in his hands, Cao Yi shook his head, stepped forward and said in surprise: "My lord, it's so late, why are you coming to the yamen?" Could it be that something happened? ”

Xiao Fan sighed before speaking, and said with a bitter face: "Brother Cao, don't mention it, everything is troublesome...... Something bothers you. ”

Cao Yi straightened his waist and patted his chest, and said excitedly: "My lord, just command!" The knife came and went, Cao Yi frowned and didn't call him a man! ”

Xiao Fan smiled: "It's not that serious, it's very simple, help me write a recital." ”

Cao Yi's straight waist collapsed instantly, and his face was as bitter as a distorted dough cake.

Xiao Fan was unhappy: "Brother Cao, didn't you just say that if you frown, you won't be called a man?" Look at you, you can wring out bitter water from your brows now......"

Cao Yi said bitterly: "My lord, you know that I was born in the army, and it is not ambiguous to use a knife and a gun, but if you want me to hold a pen, isn't that deliberately embarrassing me?" I don't even know all the words, so how can I help you write a recital? ”

Xiao Fan was stunned, thinking about it, if he really wanted to embarrass him, this guy definitely couldn't recognize more words than himself.

But...... Who can I ask for help with the cantata? Bachelor of Solution? Ru Shangshu? Or Qi Shilang? It's rude to come to the door in the middle of the night, and most people don't want to see you.

Cao Yi looked at Xiao Fan's embarrassed expression and said, "My lord, your master and his old man should know a few words, right?" Why not look for him? ”

Xiao Fan sneered: "Pull it down, that old guy, painting a peach talisman is crooked like a dog, I dare to find him?" Your Majesty has to cut me down when he sees my playbook......"

So, the two stood in the open space in the front hall of the yamen, sighing relatively wordlessly.

After a long time, Xiao Fan patted Cao Yi on the shoulder and said, "That's it, don't mention this matter for the time being, let's go, I'll invite you to drink flower wine." ”

Cao Yi's eyes lit up: "Drink flower wine?" Your Excellency, you are ...... I'm in a lot of interest. ”

"I've never been to a kiln, you lead the way, I'll treat you. Walk! ”

At that moment, the two changed out of their official uniforms and went to the Qinhuai River together.

It was the middle of the night, but the banks of the Qinhuai River were brightly lit. The Qinglou painting boats are lined up on the riverside, and the silver and bamboo music is transmitted from the painting boat, and the pink bead curtain is faintly flickering through a few slender and moving shadows, and the hustle and bustle is ticking the passers-by.

Xiao Fan and Cao Yi didn't deliberately choose, they casually found a painting boat that looked quite exquisite, Xiao Fan stepped on the gangplank of the painting boat resting on the shore as soon as he lifted the hem, and Cao Yi followed closely.

When the old bustard guarding the door saw two guests coming up, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he waved his handkerchief and said with an exaggerated smile: "Yo, two masters, don't you come often?" Are there any girls you know? ”

Xiao Fan threw a silver ingot to the bustard very old-fashionedly, and then raised his hand to stop the bustard's chatter, and said lightly: "Don't talk nonsense, first, arrange a table of banquets, and second, arrange a girl for one of us......"

Saying that, Xiao Fan turned his head and asked Cao Yi, "What flavor does Brother Cao like?" ”

Cao Yi rubbed his hands and smiled: "I like big breasts, long legs, and young ......"

Xiao Fan's head was full of black lines: "...... I'm asking, what kind of flavor do you like for the banquet, light or salty...... Forget it, this mother, you can do it. ”

The old bustard smiled flatteringly and asked flatteringly, "What kind of taste does this prince like?" ”

Xiao Fan raised his head, pondered for a while, and said solemnly: "Just like him, with big breasts, long legs, and a young ...... Hurry up and arrange it. ”

The old bustard wiped his sweat: "The slave family is asking for a banquet...... Okay, okay, I must satisfy my son. ”

…………………… And the red leaning on the green, the romance, the life is smooth. Youth is paid, endure the floating name, and change the shallow low singing.

Entering an accord on the inside of the painting boat, it didn't take long for the banquet to be set up, a few exquisite Jiangnan side dishes, a jar of aged flower carvings, Cao Yi unceremoniously patted open the mud seal of the wine jar, and filled the wine bowl for Xiao Fan and himself.

After the two drank two bowls in a row, Cao Yi wiped the wine stains on the corner of his mouth, and then asked, "Why did Brother Xiao suddenly remember to write a recital?" What will Your Majesty give you? ”

Xiao Fan sighed, and said with a gloomy expression: "Brother Cao, don't mention it, now the family and state affairs are troublesome, and everything is troublesome......"

Cao Yi said with a smile: "There is eating, drinking and playing, he is already a brocade cloth at a young age, he reads in the East Palace, he is in a high position, and he is a beautiful wife and concubine when he enters......"

Xiao Fan hurriedly corrected: "I don't deny the high power, what is the saying of a beautiful wife and a beautiful concubine?" Others don't know, don't you know? I now have a thrush and a wife, where is the beautiful concubine? ”

Cao Yi smiled strangely: "Come on, you, pretend!" You don't hesitate to risk killing your head to mess with the marriage of the county lord of Jiangdu, and beat up the poor son of the Marquis of Changxing, if you don't have an eyebrow with the county lord of Jiangdu, Cao will compensate you for this head! ”

At the mention of the Jiangdu County Lord, Xiao Fan's expression became more and more bitter.

Again, it's a nuisance...... If Geng Xuan's injury is healed, the county lord of Jiangdu will inevitably have to marry that unlucky guy again, what should he do at that time? Beat him up again? People are not wronged! Don't beat him? If you don't beat him, it's yourself who is wronged...... If you want to marry the county lord of Jiangdu, how can Zhu Yuanzhang pass that level? How could he cancel the family affair with the Marquis of Changxing that he had already made for himself? Besides, there is a county lord in his family...... This trouble will have to be faced sooner or later, if not, I have to wait for Zhu Yuanzhang to breathe and see who can consume whom, in case his own crossing drives the butterfly effect, Zhu Yuanzhang can live a long life, then ...... How many beatings did Geng Xuan take?

And that Zhu Di, how can I leave him in Jingshi completely...... was frowning and drinking, and the girl ordered by the two came.

The old bustard opened the bead curtain of the Accord, and the two girls with beautiful bodies and faces like flowers entered, first squatting towards Xiao Fan and Cao Yi for a thousand blessings, and then sat beside Xiao Fan and Cao Yi very obediently, and poured wine for the two.

Cao Yi was unceremoniously, stretched out his hand, and took the girl next to him into his arms, and carried out very obscene movements, touching the girl panting and laughing.

Xiao Fan also swept away his worries, and when he saw the girl next to him hanging her head and being shy, she couldn't help but perk up, took the girl's green and white jade hand, and asked with an indulgent expression: "Has the girl ever read?" ”

The girl paused, then nodded with a blushing face, and said softly, "Mom taught me." ”

Xiao Fan became more and more happy: "Can the girl write?" ”

The girl nodded in confusion.

Xiao Fan rubbed his hands and muttered excitedly: "Great, highly educated, highly qualified......"

"What is Childe talking about?"

Xiao Fan stared at the girl with burning eyes, staring at her pretty face more and more ruddy, and finally couldn't bear the heat in his eyes, and hung his head shyly.

Xiao Fan ignored the girl's shyness, but became more and more enthusiastic and tightly held the girl's hand and asked, "Girl,...... How much does a night cost? ”

"Huh?" The girl looked at him dumbfounded.

Xiao Fan said excitedly: "I have something to worry about, and I ask the girl not to refuse......"

The girl lowered her head shyly again, and said angrily: "Son, you are so bad, what do you want to do, just do it, why do you need to ask the slave family......"

"That'...... You're welcome. ”

Xiao Fan took out a blank notebook from his arms with great interest and threw it on the table with a snap.

All three people in the room were taken aback.

The girl's mouth opened wide, and she was stunned: "This ...... This is? ”

Xiao Fan said with a smile: "I'll cover you for one night, you help me write a concerto, write well, and you will have another reward!" ”

Everyone was cold: "............"

The girl froze for a while, and her pretty face suddenly became stiff and cold.

"I'm sorry, son, please respect yourself, the slave family sells himself and doesn't sell his art......"
