Chapter 42 For the sake of the Ming Dynasty, I agreed
persuaded Zhu Youzhen, Zhu Cheng adopted a roundabout strategy.
Zhu Cheng pretended to be nonchalant and asked, "Ah Jian, do you still dream of Grandpa Shenzong now?" ”
Zhu Youzhen replied: "Not in the last few months, probably because Grandpa Shenzong has something to do and doesn't come to me." Brother Cheng, have you ever dreamed of him? ”
Zhu Cheng said: "I had a dream the day before yesterday, and he asked me why I didn't do what he said, which made me feel very uncomfortable. ”
Zhu Youzhen said: "Brother Cheng is doing a good job, why does Grandpa Shenzong blame you, what did he say?" ”
Zhu Cheng sighed: "Grandpa Shenzong said, why don't you make Concubine Zheng Guifei the queen mother, so that Concubine Ai and him can't sleep together after death?" ”
Zhu Youzhen changed color and said: "Hmph, Zheng Guifei is a stinky ...... Stinky watermelon, I will never let him be the queen, even if the emperor's brother agrees, I am against it. ”
Zhu Youzhen has been with Zhu Cheng for too long, and even his mantra has been learned.
Zhu Cheng said: "Grandpa Shenzong is so good to us, why don't we even help him fulfill his last wish?" ”
Zhu Youzhen said: "Concubine Zheng is too bad and wants to murder her father. In the forty-third year of Wanli, the year before God gave Brother Cheng to me, she actually sent someone to the palace to kill her father. ”
Zhu Youzhen is talking about the attack case among the three major cases in the late Ming Dynasty. It turned out that in May of the forty-third year of Wanli (1615), a man Zhang Cha, armed with a wooden stick, broke into the Ciqing Palace where the prince Zhu Changluo lived, intending to commit a crime, and was caught by the prince's chamberlain. Wang Zhiyu of the Criminal Department interrogated and learned that Zhang Cha was instructed by the eunuchs Pang Bao and Liu Cheng under the noble concubine to break into the palace. Because the matter involved the emperor's beloved concubine, the emperor and the crown prince were unwilling to investigate deeply, and finally executed Zhang Chaling Chi for the crime of madness and adultery. On 1 June, Shenzong secretly ordered the eunuchs to execute Pang Bao and Liu Cheng, and the whole case could not be investigated. Afterwards, Zheng Guifei's power declined, and Shenzong had to give up the idea of Lifu Wang as the crown prince, and the position of the crown prince Zhu Changluo was also stable.
Zhu Cheng said: "Do you think that traitor was really invited by Concubine Zheng?" ”
Zhu Youzhen said: "Then it goes without saying, it can't be that my father invited someone to kill him." ”
Zhu Cheng smiled: "How is it impossible, think about it, who is the beneficiary of this matter?" It was Emperor Guangzongzhen, after this incident, Grandpa Shenzong no longer talked about letting King Fu inherit the throne, and the position of the crown prince of His Majesty Guangzong was as stable as Mount Tai. ”
"Impossible, my father is loyal and honest, known as an honest and reliable little ......" Zhu Youzhen suddenly remembered that his father was no longer young, so he changed his words, "Old Langjun, how can you do such a thing?" ”
Zhu Cheng said: "How could it not, since ancient times, which deposed prince has been able to die a good death?" His Majesty Guangzong also had to do it as a last resort. As far as I know, 8 out of 10 female crimes are poisoning, and the other 20 percent are murders. Concubine Zheng really wanted to kill His Majesty Guangzong, she only needed to buy off the chef of the prince's palace. Besides, if you really want to buy murder, you have to find a martial arts master, as far as I know, that thief is just an ordinary woodcutter. ”
Zhu Youzhen bowed his head and was silent, and said after a long time: "Could it be that I blame Concubine Zheng Guifei by mistake?" ”
Zhu Cheng said: "Of course." Actually, Concubine Zheng is still very good to us. If it weren't for her persuading Grandpa Shenzong, would you have moved out of the palace so smoothly and lived outside? As far as I know, you are the only one in the history of the Ming Dynasty who left the palace before the prince left the palace when he was underage. Why didn't Concubine Zheng Guifei beg Grandpa Shenzong to make him the queen, but let him leave an edict, because he was afraid that His Majesty Guangzong would be suspicious of a dark ghost and do something. You also know that if Concubine Zheng Guifei does not become the queen, she will not have the opportunity to be buried in Dingling after death. Grandpa Shenzong and Concubine Zheng Guifei are deeply in love, can you bear to make Grandpa Huang uneasy under Jiuquan? ”
Zhu Youzhen pulled out his legs and left, and said, "I'll go and persuade the emperor's brother to go." ”
Zhu Cheng hurriedly stopped him and said, "Don't worry, I'll persuade you first." If I can't persuade me, you will persuade again. If we both go at the same time, in case His Majesty the Emperor does not agree, there will be no room to turn around. ”
Entering the palace, Zhu Cheng is now the Emperor of the Apocalypse with a very good complexion, and it seems that his newlywed life makes him very satisfied.
When the Emperor of the Apocalypse saw him, he took him by the arm and came to a carriage and said, "Brother Cheng, it's done, you see." Hey, I'm smart. ”
Zhu Cheng was a little puzzled, and the Emperor of the Apocalypse hurriedly said, "Didn't you ask me to study the four-wheeled carriage?" I've made it. Tu Wenfu, let the carriage run, and open the eyes of Brother Cheng. ”
Someone in the carriage answered, and the carriage ran briskly in the square outside the palace, turning left and right, and it was really very handy.
Zhu Cheng was dumbfounded, and said in his heart that the Emperor of the Apocalypse was really a carpenter, and he had developed such a flexible four-wheeled carriage so quickly.
When the Emperor of the Apocalypse saw Zhu Cheng's appearance, he was secretly happy in his heart, and when he saw the carriage stopped in front of him, he lifted the curtain and said, "Brother Cheng, look at it again." ”
Zhu Cheng saw that the carriage was full of bricks and stones, and it turned out that the carriage was actually driving with a load.
Zhu Chengxi said: "Your Majesty, sell me this car, I want ten, and I want as much as I want." ”
The Emperor of the Apocalypse pondered for a long time and said, "One or one thousand taels of silver, and ten is ten thousand taels of silver." Alas, originally we brothers couldn't talk about money, and talking about money hurts feelings. However, now you know the situation in the inner library, it is so empty that it can run a carriage. Although you have offered me three strategies, the current use in the palace is still very tight, and I have not sent any gifts to your sister-in-law until now. ”
Zhu Cheng said in his heart, I'm afraid that you are not short of money.
He said to the Emperor of the Apocalypse with a look of surprise: "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor, Weichen has found a great fortune for the emperor, which is enough to fill the inner treasury." ”
The Emperor of the Apocalypse excitedly grabbed Zhu Cheng's arm and said, "Really? Where, where? ”
Zhu Cheng didn't answer, just "oops" continuously. The Emperor of the Apocalypse was born as a carpenter, and his strength was not small, and under the excitement, his subordinates were so strong that they almost pinched Zhu Cheng's arm.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse let go of his hand apologetically and said, "I'm reckless, you're okay." ”
Zhu Cheng rubbed his sore arm and said, "Your Majesty almost pinched to death the hero who made money for you." No, it's definitely green here. The emperor wants to compensate me for my medical expenses, so he will give me a tael of silver. ”
The Emperor of the Apocalypse laughed, "If Neku can really receive a large sum of money, I will fill these ten carriages with sweet dreams and easy chairs for you." You must know that now Meimengsi and easy chairs are in short supply in the capital, and many dignitaries are queuing up to buy them. ”
Zhu Cheng took out the note written by Concubine Zheng and handed it to the Emperor of the Apocalypse. The Emperor of the Apocalypse looked at it, and his hands trembled slightly. After reading it, he handed it to Wei Zhongxian and said, "Wei Banban, you can also take a look." ”
Wei Zhongxian read it at a glance, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I am very happy." King Fu sacrificed his family property and land property in the second, the key is to hand over the right to collect taxes and salt, which can greatly increase the income of the imperial court. ”
Wei Zhongxian is indeed a talent who governs the world, and the focus of this note suddenly appeared.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse laughed and said, "Sure enough, the hero sees the same thing." Zhongxian, you and I have thought of each other. ”
"But," the Emperor of the Apocalypse asked suspiciously, "what conditions does Concubine Zheng have?" When she fought for her son's interests, she had a lot of trouble with the minister, but I saw it with my own eyes. She probably wouldn't have handed it over so voluntarily. ”
Zhu Cheng said: "Concubine Zheng actually doesn't have any outrageous conditions, she just wants to be the empress dowager and sleep in the same cave with Emperor Shenzongxian after her death." ”
The Emperor of the Apocalypse's face sank, and he just wanted to say something. Wei Zhongxian pulled him aside and muttered quietly for a long time.
The Emperor of the Apocalypse turned around and said, "For the sake of the Ming Dynasty, I agreed." However, the minister is not easy to do. Last year, Emperor Guangzongzhen wanted to respect Concubine Zheng Guifei as the empress dowager, but they interrupted it, but it was unsuccessful. ”
Zhu Cheng smiled: "The emperor doesn't need to worry, everything has me." ”
The Emperor of the Apocalypse smiled slightly and said, "It seems that I am going to lose a large number of easy chairs and sweet dreams. Li Yongzhen, inform the carpenter, work overtime, and make ten carriages, which I will deliver to Brother Cheng. ”
(Tomorrow the court will debate, Zhu Cheng said, come to some collections, come to some recommendations, give me some motivation.) )
