Empress Zhang and Duoduo leaned on the couch, Empress Zhang half-closed her eyes, she was in a good mood today, this time the victory of the student army was really exciting, and even the school newspaper also published an article, hyping up how His Royal Highness the Prince trained the military horses, although there were soldiers in this battle, but His Royal Highness the Prince's leadership was not small.
Empress Zhang's thoughts are on the two men, the emperor is happy now, she is naturally happy, Zhu Houzhao is famous all over the world, although some people criticize him for his sparse literary affairs, but at least the prince is no longer useless in the eyes of others, there is always a place to shine.
Queen Zhang naturally smiled from ear to ear.
In the center of this hall is a small case, there is tea on the case, a beast stove, and a guqin, Zhu Youzhu is wearing a plain clothes, his hand gently plucks the strings, the sound of the piano is curling, sometimes the mountains and rivers, sometimes sonorous and powerful, Empress Zhang listened to it, while pointing to Duoduo: "Your father's palace sound is a little heavier, you don't want to learn from him." ”
Duoduo was only talking on one side, but his ears were pricked up, listening carefully to the sound of the piano, quite intoxicated.
Zhu Youzhu played the piano with a very gentlemanly style, and then fluctuated the strings after bathing and changing clothes, this time he wanted to show Duoduo his piano skills, so he deliberately changed into a chic and elegant Confucian shirt, wearing a square scarf, under the plucking of ten fingers, the sound of the piano is like a mountain spring playing among the green mountains, melodious and clear; It is like the breeze that floats by the willow tops, which is clear and unrestrained; It is like a colorful butterfly fluttering among the flowers, soft and beautiful; It is like the little red plum in the snow dance, cold and noble.
Sometimes the sound of the piano is as high as a cloud, and the sound is as low as a whisper; Sometimes the sound of the piano is ethereal, like silk in the wind; Sometimes the sound is as calm as a pine cliff, sometimes the sound is exciting, and sometimes the sound of the piano is empty.
The family gathered together, playing the piano and competing skills, but it was a good time, at this moment, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside, and a eunuch came in, gasped, and knelt heavily on the ground.
The sound of the piano was not broken, and Zhu Youjiao's fingers continued to caress it, while raising his eyes and glancing at the eunuch with displeasure.
"Your Majesty, something has happened, Xu Guan, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, died in the mansion drinking doves......"
Qiang ...... The sound of the piano is scrambled.
Zhu Youjiao's eyes showed a look of surprise, and then he moved the strings fiercely, making an extremely ugly sound...... "Withdraw the piano ......"
The little eunuch took the qin away, Zhu Youzhang's face was a little pale, and he asked, "When did it happen?" ”
"Yesterday evening, at three o'clock, his son Xu Ye reported his funeral early this morning, and the cabinet handed a note to the General Administration, but it was just ...... It's just that...... Your Majesty hasn't read the book today......"
Zhu Youzhu closed his eyes, sighed and said, "What did he say before he died?" ”
"His son Xu Ye has already handed over a recital book and a booklet for His Majesty to see."
The eunuch had already brought the things in his hand, and carefully sent the book and the book to the small case where Zhu Youzhu knelt in front of him, Zhu Youzhu first read the book, his face showed regret, and then he picked up another book to read, the cover on the black background was written with the words "Yu Li Draft", open this book, in addition to some temporary poems, more are all kinds of water control experience.
Zhu Youzhu carefully covered the book and called to the human: "Keep it properly, and then copy a few points and send it to the yamen." Go, gather the officials of the various ministries, discuss it, and call Liu Chengfeng together. ”
Zhu Youzhu waved his hand and motioned for everyone to retreat.
When Empress Zhang saw Zhu Youzhu like this, she couldn't help but say, "Your Majesty ......"
Zhu Youzhu took a deep breath and interrupted her: "You don't need to persuade me, I have nothing to do, Xu Guan is also an old minister of the Three Dynasties, he has done a lot of things for the court over the years, and he has contributed a lot to the floods of Song and Su if they can be quelled." He is my right-hand man, and I also know that he is not afraid of crime and committed suicide, although he has something to do with the bureau, I will not punish him for his past merits, he ......" Zhu Youzhu said gloomily: "He has no face to live in the world again, does he dare not see me again, and face his colleagues again...... Don't talk about it, go and ask someone to change your clothes. ”
Early in the morning, the news of Xu Guan's suicide had spread to almost all corners, and the palace suddenly issued an order to order hundreds of officials to enter the palace, and almost everyone knew that this matter was mostly inseparable from Xu Guan.
This time, Liu Chengfeng was specially asked to enter the palace to meet him, but after Liu Chengfeng returned home, he left for the trading house, so the palace immediately hurried to pass the holy message, Liu Chengfeng did not dare to slack off here, and when he heard the news of Xu Guan's suicide, he was also shocked, Xu Guan's death is very likely to turn the whole thing around, what will others say? This has not been thoroughly investigated, and a Ministry of Industry has died, and it is conceivable how many people will be disgusted by this thorough investigation of the bureau.
It's just that at this time, Liu Chengfeng can't guess Zhu Youzhang's thoughts, if it is because of Xu Guan's death that Zhu Youzhang's determination to clean up the situation, then the direct decree is, why do you need to discuss it? But if it is said that the emperor is indifferent, this is not right, otherwise how can the court call himself up? What is the matter of the court meeting that is not about the bureau?
Liu Chengfeng quickly arrived in the capital, and then entered the palace from the noon gate, and stepped into the main hall when he arrived, this civil and military officials had already arrived, but there were not many people, only seventy or eighty people, all of whom were bigwigs in all aspects of the court, Liu Chengfeng could clearly feel that when he walked into the palace, there were many ill-intentioned eyes in this hall towards him.
Liu Chengfeng just pretended not to see anything, bowed and saluted, and Zhu Youzhu on His Majesty waved his hand and said, "Go to the class." ”
Liu Chengfeng entered the class. Zhu Youzhu began to speak, sat on the royal chair, and said, "Read it." ”
A eunuch opened Xu Guan's testament and said loudly: "The minister is old and rebellious, and he will not give up on the saint, and he will not be among the auxiliary ministers, and he can not be Kuang Shengjun in Longhan, but he will be constrained, and he will be ashamed of his death, and he will only die to thank His Majesty for the grace of his knowledge, otherwise it is bound to be a big tail, and there will be different aspirations in the border towns...... Alack! When a person is about to die, his words are also good, pray for the heart of the yellow sheep, and the ministers know it, please check it out to your majesty......"
When this last recital was recited, hundreds of officials were shocked.
originally thought that Xu Guan would exonerate himself in the last recital, but he never thought that Xu Guan would not do this, but planned for Zhu Youzhu to completely clarify the situation.
Liu Chengfeng listened, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, Xu Guan this time can be regarded as good as he said in the book, and the strategy he proposed in the book to clarify the situation coincides with himself. It is necessary to cut off all the black hands that have reached out to the bureau, and those ministers involved in the DPRK and China can let them go for the time being, because they are not the most harmful, and the top priority is to deal with some bigwigs in the border towns, and the rest of the people can be left alone, but these leaders must be controlled as soon as possible.
Deal with them, and then slowly reel those small fish and shrimp together, so that the negative impact of this incident can be minimized.
But at this time, Liu Chengfeng didn't seem to be thinking about how to rectify people, at this time Zhu Youzhu was in a very bad mood, he stood up from the royal chair, and said after a long time: "Who can be without fault, knowing mistakes can improve Mo Dayan, Xu Aiqing is an old minister of the Three Dynasties, is my hero, I remember the fifth year of Hongzhi, he returned to the dynasty from Sushui Heti, I saw his hand ......with my own eyes" Zhu Youzhu couldn't bear to say more, continued: "Loyal to the king, Xu Aiqing did it, he made a mistake, and now Xu Aiqing is thanking the country with death, I ...... I will no longer pursue his faults, and make an order, Xu Guan, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, is known for his merits, meritorious service to the country, and his life is well buried, and he will posthumously present the prince Shaobao......"
This will made many people gasp, this nickname alone is enough for the palace's affirmation of Xu Guan, Your Majesty is so generous, does it mean ...... I only heard Zhu Youzhu continue: "Before the work of the Bureau of Creation began, a secretary of the Ministry of Engineering died, so that I lost my right-hand man, how can I make everyone of my ministers of the humerus endanger themselves because of a Bureau?" Make another decree, put aside the matter of thoroughly investigating the situation for the time being, and no one is allowed to mention it again! ”
At this moment, everyone couldn't help but talk about it, yesterday they were murderous and wanted to investigate thoroughly, and today it will be changed day and night, but the officials have no opinions, Lord Xu has already committed suicide, what else? Do you really want to make it bloody? No more dead people, what will be like dead people again? It's good to let this matter go, and it will save everyone from putting themselves at risk.
But Liu Chengfeng's heart sank, and finally made the emperor change his mind, but now it's good, this Xu Guan died, and a person died as a big deal, and the thorough investigation that was finally prepared had to be stopped...... Liu Chengfeng was about to go out of class to speak, but Zhu Youzhu had already seen through Liu Chengfeng's thoughts, and said coldly: "Liu Aiqing, you don't have to say it again, what you want to say, I know, but now that I have made up my mind, you don't have to persuade again." ”
"Your Majesty......" Liu Chengfeng thought about it, but still stood up and said: "The bureau is related to the Daming Society, and Lord Xu also said it in his posthumous performance......"
"Shut up!" Zhu Youzhu had a cold face and said, "I said that I have made up my mind!" ”
Liu Chengfeng had a stubborn temper attack and said, "You have no jokes, isn't Your Majesty going to change the order?" ”
"Liu Chengfeng, you are so bold...... Zhu Youzhu took a deep breath: "Order: Liu Chengfeng doesn't have to go to the Qianhu House for the time being, think about it behind closed doors, when you think about it, come and talk to me again, and retreat!" ”
