"Criminals! Criminals! Tai Xutie had an old face, and he trembled with anger.

Xiao Fan lowered his head in shame: "Master's anger ......"

"Deceive the teacher and destroy the ancestors! The teacher is unfortunate...... "I can't live too weakly."

"Master's Day Mourning ......"

"Poor Dao has accepted such an unscrupulous criminal as you in this life, and Poor Dao doesn't want to live......"

"Master, the apprentice doesn't want to live anymore...... Please, put on your clothes first, the lump of things under you is dangling, it's very indecent, so many people are looking at it......" Xiao Fanjun's face was flushed, and he also looked pained.

"Poor Dao is happy! Isn't it possible? Poor Dao likes to let it be open and breathable, can't it? Poor road is good for this mouthful! Too empty with a bare buttocks, straightened his waist in the eyes of many onlookers, not ashamed, but proud.

Xiao Fan sighed, with such a shameless master, this is the misfortune of the apprentice, he really regrets it, the old man also has his physical needs, as an apprentice, he should support and encourage, no matter what, he shouldn't go to make trouble with him...... "Say! What do you mean by running to stir up the poor road when you have nothing to do? Taixu stared at Xiao Fan angrily, his eyes were very unkind.

Xiao Fan rubbed his hands and smiled awkwardly: "Apprentice...... Ahem, when the apprentice heard that the master had found the second spring of his life, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and specially brought a few brothers to visit the master......"

Cao Yi and several Jinyi lieutenants on the side hurriedly nodded awkwardly and agreed: "Yes, yes, yes, let's meet Lord Xiao's master......"

Xiao Fan turned his head very knowingly, and waved enthusiastically to the girl in the Qinglou who was dressed in white stripes and was also naked: "Hi-"

The girl in the Qinglou blushed and raised her hand very politely in return: "Hi-"

With a raised hand, her white and turbulent breasts were revealed, trembling and dazzling.

"Master's vision is good, and the master is very generous......" Xiao Fan patted his ass flatteringly.

Taixu became more and more angry: "Criminal! You recognized her as a teacher, you kid don't know how many masters will come out, what do you have in mind? Fuck off! Fuck me off! ”

Xiao Fan and his entourage frowned, and retreated from the Laichun Building in a gloomy manner.

Out of the Spring Building, Cao Yi and the others drooped their heads, their morale was very depressed, Xiao Fan also felt very faceless, the dignified brocade clothes and guards knew the same, they were driven out like grandsons, and they were not angry, so many subordinates watched, they would lose their prestige.

"Ahem, it's only right for the master to scold the apprentice, right?" Xiao Fan cleared his throat and wanted to explain two sentences.

"Yes, yes, rightly, it is ......" all the lieutenants in brocade clothes echoed in unison.

"If he hadn't been my master, he would have been cut into seventeen or eighteen pieces a long time ago, and the prestige of our Jinyiwei wouldn't have been blown out, right?" Xiao Fan tried to put two cruel words and came back with a little face.

"Yes, yes, the brothers of Jinyiwei are not vegetarians......"

After throwing two sentences, Xiao Fan still felt dissatisfied and did not achieve the effect of improving morale, so he had to change his strategy and evaluate today's boring behavior from the perspective of education.

"What lesson does this tell us?"

"My subordinates don't know ......"

Xiao Fan said solemnly: "The lesson is very profound, that is...... Don't visit Master when she is doing business! ”

Everyone was stunned and blurted out: "My lord's insight......

Imperial Palace Wuying Hall.

Today, the palace is filled with a gloomy atmosphere.

In the gray sky, a burly and tall man was naked, with a few rattans tied to his back, straightened his waist and knelt motionless under the steps of the gate of Wuying Palace, the thorns on the rattan had stabbed his dark and broad back, and the bloody wounds looked shocking, the man seemed to be unconscious, with a look of remorse, kneeling respectfully on the ground, not daring to move.

The eunuchs passing by all bowed their heads cautiously, secretly raised their eyes to look at him from time to time, and hurriedly lowered their eyelids and lowered their heads, not squinting.

In the Wuying Palace, Zhu Yuanzhang was closing his eyes with a cold expression, and recently he felt more and more tired, and he often felt powerless to deal with state affairs.

After all, he is old, and Zhu Yuanzhang has a sad emotion in his heart.

has fought a lifetime of battles, killed a lifetime of people, and now he is running out of oil. Every time I listen to the courtiers shouting long live, who in this world can really live longlive? It's just a matter of lying to yourself. Every time he looked coldly, he watched those ministers bow respectfully to him, and shouted long live, but Zhu Yuanzhang himself understood that none of these ministers really wanted the Son of Heaven to live long, maybe in their hearts, they wished they had died early, after all, no one wants to live in the shadow of a tyrant all day long, and there is a danger of losing their lives at any time.

Zhu Yuanzhang is not afraid of death, but now he does not want to die, he hopes that God can give him a few more years, because he still has a lot of things to do, the thorns of Zhu Ming's country have not been completely removed, and he is not at ease to hand it over to Zhu Yunwen.

The source of unease was kneeling outside the temple gate at this time.

It was quiet in the warm pavilion, and Zhu Yuanzhang closed his eyes, as if he was asleep.

The personal eunuch Qingtong tiptoed in, without making a sound, and after walking to the dragon case, seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's cold look, Qingtong obviously hesitated for a while, and finally gritted his teeth, and said softly: "Your Majesty, the fourth prince, King Yan, has been kneeling outside the palace for a long time......"

Zhu Yuanzhang's face was expressionless, his eyes were still closed, as if he was really asleep, and there was no reaction.

Qingtong opened his mouth, and saw Zhu Yuanzhang's brows frowning imperceptibly, Qingtong was so frightened that his neck shrank, and he didn't dare to say another half a word, so he retreated respectfully.

Qingtong, who went out of the palace, shook his head and sighed, raised his eyes and saw that Zhu Di was still kneeling at the bottom of the steps, Qingtong walked down the steps with the dust, and whispered in Zhu Di's ear: "Your Highness, you better go back first, the slave maid has asked for you, Your Majesty has no reaction, the slave has followed Your Majesty for many years, look at this situation, Your Majesty is afraid that you don't want to see you, don't kneel here, kneeling is also ...... nothing"

Zhu Di's face was full of remorse, he lowered his head in annoyance, shook it a few times, but did not make a sound, and his expression was quite resolute.

Qingtong stomped his feet and said hurriedly: "Ouch! Your Highness, why do you bother? Your Majesty may not be angry yet, can't you come back in a few days? If Your Majesty doesn't want to see you one day, will you kneel here all night? ”

Shaking his head stubbornly, Zhu Di said hoarsely: "I did something wrong, I should be punished, I deserve to kneel for as long as I want, thank you for the kindness of my father-in-law, this king is grateful, my father-in-law has served my father for many years on behalf of the prince and other princes, it is really hard, and it is clear that this king will have a lot of money to give to my father-in-law, talk about gratitude, and hope that my father-in-law will not shirk." ”

Qingtong was overjoyed when he heard this, a greedy light flashed in his eyes, and he hurriedly thanked: "Oh, Your Highness is too polite, how embarrassing is this called a slave, Your Highness is really a kind-hearted filial son, for your filial piety to Your Majesty, even if the slave and maid lose their heads, they will go in again to spread it to His Highness......"

Zhu Di hurriedly said: "My father-in-law is partial to work, and this king is grateful." ”

Qing Tong smiled and waved his hand, and when he stood up straight, his expression immediately changed, becoming heavy and a little distressed, holding a slight step, and slowly walking towards the hall.

Zhu Di looked at Qingtong's back, although there was a look of remorse on his face, but the corners of his mouth hooked a subtle smile.

It didn't take long for Qingtong to walk out of the hall again, Zhu Di suddenly looked at him expectantly, who knew that Qingtong shook his head from afar, sighed at him with a bitter expression, and then walked back to the hall.

Zhu Di's expectant expression immediately became extremely disappointed, and his rugged bearded face was already dim.

A sense of sadness of being abandoned came to his heart, at this moment Zhu Di felt that fate was so unfair, why did his father treat him so coldly? On leading the army to fight, he took the lead, completely abandoned the noble status of the prince, ate and lived with the soldiers, shared weal and woe, and won the support of the soldiers of Beiping. On governing the country and Anbang, he made great efforts to promote water conservancy in Beiping, advocated agriculture and excellent mulberry, opened Yi City, cut taxes, and won the hearts of the people in the north. Where is he worse than Zhu Yunwen? It's nothing more than an identity, the identity of a long grandson!

With this huge country and thousands of subjects, can it be governed well by relying on a noble identity? If the Ming Dynasty is in my Zhu Di's hands, I dare to pat my chest and say, I will be able to create a brilliant era comparable to the Tang and Song dynasties, does he Zhu Yunwen dare to say this?

Father, I'm so unwilling!

The more Zhu Di thought about it, the more angry he became, a crazy ambition to destroy everything quietly grew in his heart, and at this moment, he suddenly remembered what Monk Daoyan had said to him: "Heaven is inherently unfair, has His Highness only understood it until now?" Since it's unfair, let's try to change it! Fight with the heavens! ”

Father, you don't want to see the tragedy of the Xuanwumen change in the early Tang Dynasty happen again, but do you know that the cause of the Xuanwumen change is because Tang Gaozu Li Yuan favors the prince over the other. Father, if you decide to be that Li Yuan, why don't I Zhu Di be Li Shimin! For the glorious and prosperous era of the Ming Dynasty, what does it matter if such a grandson dies? If Li Shimin didn't kill his brothers' flesh and blood, how could he have the rule of Zhenguan that would be glorious for all generations?

The rattan tied behind his back hurt his back, but Zhu Di seemed to be numb, he faced the gate of Wuying Palace, suddenly kowtowed three times, and shouted: "Father!" The son knows that he has done something wrong, and now he has come to ask his father for his guilt and ask for his father's forgiveness! Father! Did you hear that? Erchen is the fourth prince Zhu Di! Erchen has shed blood and been injured for my Ming Dynasty's Jiangshan Sheji, Erchen once captured the Northern Yuan Taiwei Nai'er Buhua without spending a single soldier, captured the Northern Yuan general Solin Timur alive, and defeated the Northern Yuan general Ha Tingwu...... Father, the emperor, the sons and ministers, this accumulated military exploits, isn't it enough to withstand an unintentional word? Father! ”

The more Zhu Di spoke, the more sad he became, and after shouting a few words, the man in Angzang couldn't help but shed tears.

At this time, Qingtong hurriedly walked out of the hall, stood on the steps and shook the dust, and sang sharply: "Your Majesty has a decree, Xuan Fourth Prince Yan Wang enters the palace to meet ——"

Zhu Di raised his head suddenly when he heard this, the sadness in his eyes suddenly turned into surprise and relief, he kowtowed to the door of the palace, and said loudly: "My son has received the decree, thank you father." ”

Then he did not get up, but moved to the temple door on his knees with a respectful expression, and leaned on his numb knees, and knelt all the way up the steps and moved into the temple gate.

Finally entered the warm pavilion, Zhu Di looked up and saw Zhu Yuanzhang flipping through the books in his hand with a cold expression, as if he hadn't seen him at all, Zhu Di's heart full of joy suddenly cooled half, but he still kowtowed respectfully three times, and cried with remorse: "Father!" Erchen pleads guilty to you, Erchen is wrong! Erchen no longer dares to say a word of disrespect to His Royal Highness Taisun, nor will he have the slightest disrespect to His Royal Highness Taisun, Erchen is willing to defend Beiping for his father and His Royal Highness Taisun for generations, Erchen swears, King Yan does not dare to have two hearts and minds for generations! ”

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't raise his eyelids, and still ignored the book.

"Father, the son of the son asks for the sin, and the son deserves death! If the father and the emperor don't understand the hatred, please give the son to death, and the son will die without resentment! Zhu Di kowtowed unrelentingly, the remorse on his face was mixed with tears and snot, and the burly and tough man was as pitiful as a helpless child at the moment.

Zhu Yuanzhang's hand holding the book began to tremble slightly, and finally, he gently put the book on the dragon case, raised his head and looked at Zhu Di, his expression was very complicated, distressed and resentful, and his vicissitudes of life were repeatedly intertwined and changed on his vicissitudes of life.

The thorns on the rattan pierced deeply into Zhu Di's flesh, and also deeply pierced Zhu Yuanzhang's heart.

He...... After all, it's his own son! Tiger poison does not eat children, is the emperor's family more ruthless than the tiger? I have worked hard all my life to lay down this huge country, in order to leave it to the descendants of the Zhu family? If I punish the descendants of the Zhu family for this country, what is the point of doing so many things over the years?

The son just said the wrong thing, and now that he knows his mistake and repents, isn't it enough?

That's it, that's it.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was murderous, faced his son who made a mistake, at this moment, he finally relented.

"Di'er......" Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, his voice hoarse and tired.

Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang call his name, Zhu Di's frightened heart suddenly fell into ecstasy.

"Father, son-in-law."

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his head and looked at him deeply, and after a while, Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand weakly and said, "Di'er, you ...... Go back, and leave the matter at that. ”

Zhu Di suddenly cried and said deeply: "The sons obey the order, the sons will take it as a warning, and never do it again, thank your father for forgiveness!" ”

After speaking, Zhu Di respectfully kowtowed three times, and slowly withdrew from the palace gate while crying.

It wasn't until Zhu Di walked out of the palace and got into the carriage back to the courtyard that his crying stopped, and a cold and resentful look appeared on his tearful face.

If I don't become the emperor, I don't know how many times I will repeat this groveling and begging for mercy in this life!

Zhu Yunwen, Uncle Four Emperors' knees are too expensive, you can't stand my worship, when you ascend the throne, I will do the opposite!

Inside the Wuying Palace.

Zhu Yuanzhang leaned back in his chair, sighed tiredly, and looked at the tribute paper on the dragon case with cloudy eyes.

On the piece of paper was a decree that had already been prepared.

"E: Zhu Di, the king of Yan, handed over the affairs of Beiping's defense and civil affairs, and moved the fiefdom of Beiping to Nanchang, Jiangxi, that is, he was said to be a vassal and should not be delayed."

Looking at this written edict, Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head, showed a wry smile, and finally reached out and tore it to pieces.

Closing his eyes, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression changed repeatedly, and a contradictory mood was entangled in his heart.

Yun Wei, I am now soft-hearted, I really don't know if it has planted a disaster for your future.

I'm old after all!

In the afternoon, in the gray sky, a luxurious carriage slowly stopped in front of a fat powder shop called "South Beauty".

The guards who followed the carriage immediately dispersed, separating the passing crowd from the carriage and scanning around vigilantly.

The maid slowly lifted the curtain of the carriage, revealing a beautiful and quiet face.

The beauty stepped out of the carriage with the support of the maid and walked straight to the store.

The customers in the fat powder shop have long been cleared, and the hall is empty, only the owner of the store respectfully greets him at the door.

"Chen Ying'er, a folk girl, has seen the county lord's mother."

The boss was blessed, and then stood up straight, revealing a peerless face that was not inferior to the county lord, which was actually Chen Ying'er, the daughter of Jiangpu Chen Siliu.

Chen Ying'er came to Beijing for a few months, relying on the huge funds of the Chen family, and her smart and wise mind, in just a few months, a lot of new shops were opened in Beijing, and the business of each store is very prosperous, the Chen family's industry and income are like a snowball, rolling bigger and bigger, compared with the original Jiangpu small rich businessmen, it is no longer a grade, and now the Chen family business is already ranked among the rich businessmen and giants in Beijing, and the business community of Beijing has paid attention to the Chen family, a dark horse that was killed halfway. But few people know that the person who led the Chen family to make a profit in Beijing was actually a woman who had not been out of the cabinet, a female boss who never appeared in public.

This fat powder shop called "South Beauty" is also one of the Chen family's industries in Beijing, fortunately, the store has just opened, and it has attracted the sister of His Royal Highness the current grandson, the county lord of Jiangdu, the county lord of Jiangdu is a quiet and easy-going woman, never put a shelf of golden branches and jade leaves, come and go, Chen Yinger and her are familiar with each other, and gradually have a deep friendship, and they have formed a handkerchief friend.

Chen Ying'er has changed a lot, her immature and simple face in the past is now much more sophisticated and sleek, with strong self-confidence in her gestures, and a little more capable and shrewd taste of a strong woman in the shopping mall, she can also be neither humble nor arrogant when facing the county lord, and never show timidity.

"Ying'er, I told you a long time ago that you don't have to be polite when there are no outsiders, why did you forget it?" The county lord of Jiangdu stepped forward and took Chen Ying'er's hand, and said in a soft voice.

Chen Ying'er smiled faintly, her smile was a little charming, and a little cold, and the two complex expressions were intertwined, looking even more charming.

After entering the store, the county lord of Jiangdu seemed to be much happier with a cheerful expression, she took Chen Ying'er's hand and sat down in the hall, and then said with great interest: "Ying'er, what are the interesting and interesting things about these Jingshi?" Tell me about it......"

Chen Ying'er thought for a while and said with a smile: "There are interesting things every day, but yesterday there was an incident that spread in the market......

"Say it quickly!" The county lord was like a child who had found a toy, and his beautiful eyes flashed with strong anticipation.

"The folk girl heard that an interesting incident happened in the north of the city last night, and an old Taoist priest who did not abide by the rules ran to ...... Ran to the Qinglou to have fun, but somehow offended Jinyiwei, and then Jinyiwei took people in the Qinglou, but the old Taoist priest was so frightened that he fled in a hurry, and the ghost cried wolf while running, because Jinyiwei came suddenly, the old Taoist priest didn't even have time to wear clothes, I heard it...... Hehe, I heard that he ran around the lobby of the Qinglou five or six times with his bare buttocks, and finally was caught by Jinyiwei with a net......"

After Chen Ying'er finished speaking, she covered her mouth and laughed in a low voice.

When the county lord of Jiangdu heard this, he immediately laughed loudly, and the two peerless beauties covered their mouths and laughed wildly, and the laughter like silver bells echoed endlessly in the hall, which was extremely pleasant and pleasant.

The county lord laughed for a while and then stopped, stretched out his slender little hand, patted Chen Ying'er gently, and said angrily: "Why do you tell me this?" It's really bad! Who wants to listen to this green building, naked...... Naked that...... Yikes! Shame on you! Hee-hee, hahaha......"

The county lord's pretty face blushed for a while, and then he couldn't help laughing.

Chen Ying'er herself said that her face was flushed, and after laughing, her beautiful eyes blinked a few times, looked at the county lord and said, "The county lord lives in the palace, what is the interesting thing?" Can you tell me about the people's daughter? ”

The county lord's happy expression suddenly dimmed, and his beautiful black eyes seemed to have lost their brilliance, pouting slightly, sighing faintly, and said, "What can I do interestingly?" Staying in the palace every day, I was suffocated to death, and I was either a maid or a eunuch around me, and the former princesses and county lords were all married, leaving me alone, and I didn't even have anyone to talk to......"

"Didn't the county lord be promised a family affair by His Majesty?"

When the county lord heard this, his eyes were filled with deep confusion, and he said quietly: "It's a family promise, but ...... But when I think of tying the knot with a man I have never met, and from now on we will have to eat and sleep together in the same bed, and I feel an indescribable discomfort in my heart, and I ...... I really don't want to live this life so sloppily and hastily, but the will of the imperial grandfather cannot be disobeyed, I ...... I don't know what to do......"

Chen Ying'er lowered her head, and let out a faint sigh, and said, "The fate of our women has always been at the mercy of others, when can we make our own decisions?" Being in the middle of the city, and living in Miyagi, are all the same as involuntarily ......"

The two beauties hung their heads silently, thinking about their daughters' thoughts, and the atmosphere in the hall fell into a depression for a while.

After a long time, Chen Ying'er finally came back to her senses and said with a smile: "Don't men say that there is wine today and drunk today?" No one knows what will happen in the future, so why bother? Hehe, county lord mother, isn't there really a single interesting thing in the deep palace where you live? ”

The county lord's mood was also soothed, and he shook his head when he heard this, and then his beautiful face appeared a little angry, and he said hatefully: "There is really no interesting thing, but there is an annoying thing, which is really annoying to say!" ”

"What's the matter?"

"I ...... I...... Ah! It's so embarrassing to say this, I can't say ......" The county lord's pretty face was as red as a gorgeous sunset, and his quiet face revealed a thousand styles.

Chen Ying'er laughed and said, "The county lord's face is blushing like this, what annoying thing have you encountered?" Who is so bold as to dare to offend our county lord? ”

"Oops! I can't say this anyway, and I don't have the face to say it! But that person is quite young, I heard that the official is not small, I have ordered someone to inquire clearly, that guy is now my imperial brother's East Palace attendant, and he is also the same acquaintance of Jinyiwei, the second person, his name is Xiao Fan, hum! If I find a chance, see if I don't clean him up! The county lord looked angry.

Chen Ying'er's bright smile suddenly froze, and she lost her voice: "What did the county lord say his name?" ”

"Xiao Fan, Jin Yiwei knows Xiao Fan, what's wrong?"

Chen Ying'er's eyes flickered a little flustered, then she regained her composure and muttered, "Xiao Fan...... Xiao Fan, this name is very ordinary, not very surprising. ”

"That's it! People are quite ordinary, at most...... A little bit at most...... Handsome, hee-hee. The county lord laughed embarrassedly when he said this.

Chen Ying'er also laughed, laughing and slowly lowering her head.

When she lowered her head, Chen Ying'er's beautiful eyes flashed with a cold glow.
