The drizzle is like smoke, weaving into a dense net.

Zhu Xiujin handed the umbrella to the servant, pushed the door and entered the study.

"Father."

Zhu Chongguang was practicing calligraphy, holding his breath and not answering.

Zhu Xiujin walked over lightly and stood there waiting.

Splashing ink, it turned out to be a big word for "forbearance".

"Father?" Zhu Xiujin shouted softly, a little puzzled.

Zhu Chongguang threw the brush into a small blue and white porcelain jar filled with water, and the ink was filled into a beautiful flower.

He turned around and took out a secret letter from a white porcelain bottle on the bookshelf and handed it to Zhu Xiujin, "Take a look." ”

"This ...... How can it be? Zhu Xiujin read the letter word by word, and clenched the letter tightly.

He looked surprised, "We have been so cautious and have also been discovered by Ji Yuan?" ”

"It's because we're too greedy." Zhu Chongguang sighed, "I was stunned by the wealth of Lingnan." ”

"I finally caught a loophole, and it's not easy to buy one or two people in Lingnan Weili."

Zhu Xiujin is not without regrets, how much financial and material resources have been spent, and how many troops have been lost, but he still fell short.

"On the shipping side, he is very strict, even if we are not exposed this time, he must be suspicious."

Zhu Chongguang thought of the endless wealth on the sea, and the unstoppable desire in his heart erupted.

"When it comes to this matter, Ji Yuan is not authentic." Zhu Xiujin poured a full cup of tea for Zhu Chongguang.

"Lingnan is like his Ji Yuan's private treasury, and I don't know if it will hold him to death."

Since Ji Yuan passed the army in Lingnan, Lingnan guards have gone up and down, and only Ji Yuan is loyal to him.

In the area of shipping, there are not no people who are red-eyed in the court, but the shipping has been rectified by Ji Yuan like an iron bucket, and others can't insert it at all.

"How much effort did our Zhu family do to ascend to the throne for the emperor back then, what is he?" Zhu Xiujin's handsome face was covered with a layer of gloom.

"Hmph, it's too late to say that." Zhu Chongguang snorted coldly.

"The year he went to Lingnan, I should have done a little bit and killed him in the miasma forest."

Thinking of his past choice, Zhu Chongguang closed his eyes slightly, "At that time, he was lucky, and he could survive in the swamp." ”

The young man quelled the rebellion in Lingnan, facing the complex and harsh mountain and forest environment, surrounded by snakes, insects, rats and ants, poisonous birds and beasts, and in front of the Southern Barbarian enemy army who was familiar with the terrain, and behind, there were lurking dangers and batches of assassinations.

Zhu Chongguang was sure that back then, he was not the only one who wanted Ji Yuan's life.

This person is really hard-hitting, he was obviously ambushed, and he can still live in the forest for so long, and the killer who obviously went to see him enter the swamp, and he can survive in it for so long.

Lingnan didn't kill the tiger cub at the time, and now the tiger cub has grown into a fierce beast, breaking out of the cage, and it can't be controlled.

"It's also strange to say, why didn't the emperor be suspicious of Ji Yuan when he was suspicious of a person who was so suspicious before?" Zhu Xiujin asked in confusion.

Zhu Chongguang sneered, "On the one hand, the emperor is ashamed of the first empress after all, Ji Yuan is the only bloodline of the first empress, on the other hand, the empress dowager personally taught him, how could the emperor believe that the son taught by his mother would turn against him?" He still trusts Ji Yuan. ”

After a pause twice, Zhu Chongguang took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and the tea leaves given by the emperor were extremely fragrant, "What's more, among the adult princes, either they are too low and high-born, the ten princes act absurdly, and the old man is in the Ministry of Rites for the elderly, but he wants to go, what can he do?" ”

Ji Feng also grew up with Zhu Xiujin.

Talking about the current situation of this former playmate, he couldn't help but sarcastically say, "When he was young, he was very smart, and he thought he was going to do something earth-shattering, but he didn't expect that his big event was to sit on a cold bench and go to the Qinglou Chu Pavilion to recite poems." ”

"What a waste of resources."

Zhu Xiujin is not the only one who thinks so.

In the eyes of many people, the background of the monsoon is also unique, his maternal grandfather is a great Confucian in the world, and his uncle is a secretary of the ministry, who grasps talents with one hand and officials with the other.

As long as he wants, he can set up his own door and fight against Ji Yuan in the court, it's all wasted.

Monsoon, who was listening to the song, suddenly sneezed, and he was depressed and thought, "Am I suffering from a wind chill?" I didn't know that I had repeatedly lying down in the context of the Zhu family's father and son countless times.

"At present, it seems that only Ji Yuan is outstanding, and he really has the style of a monarch."

Even if he wanted to pull Ji Yuan off the horse, Zhu Chongguang still admired this young man's methods. The heart is tenacious, far from being comparable to its peers.

"Over the years, the emperor has been obsessed with cultivating immortals and ignoring the government affairs, if it weren't for Ji Yuan in front of him, the rivers and mountains of Great Xia would ......"

Zhu Chongguang stared at the continuous rain outside the window, obliquely caged on the banana tree, and silently added the second half of the sentence in his heart, what is the rotten nature of this country, or two words.

The incompetent monarch has an excellent son, I don't know if the luck of the Ji family is too good, or the national fortune of the Great Xia Dynasty is still alive?

"There are too few people who blow this wind in front of the emperor." Zhu Xiujin didn't know what his father was thinking, so he just added a sentence.

The trust of the emperor is as fragile as a piece of paper. You don't see how many fathers and sons killed each other in history, all of them were caused by the suspicion of the emperor.

The son is in his prime, and the father is begging for immortality, if the operation is done properly, Ji Yuan will be in trouble......

The index finger "thump" and had to tap on the table for a while.

Father and son fell silent.

Zhu Chongguang suddenly said, "You can try to contact Liu Zhen." “

"Your Majesty's chamberlain?" Zhu Xiujin was a little unsure, he rarely entered the harem, and he didn't have a deep impression of that person. I just know that I have served His Majesty for many years.

"Even if you want to start from the emperor's side, you can't let your aunt do it." Zhu Chongguang's mind is quite sober.

Although the harem of the former dynasty is closely indistinguishable, there is no reason for a concubine to go to the emperor's eye medicine, so it is in vain to provoke the emperor's suspicion and there is no good fruit to eat.

"Liu Zhen is very cautious, and it is not easy to buy him off." Zhu Chongguang sighed, "He has been with the emperor for so long, and he also knows Ji Yuan's weight, and nine times out of ten, he will not agree." ”

"What then?" Zhu Xiujin is stumped now, can't he go any way?

"You must know that Liu Zhen is loyal to the emperor, not necessarily to the prince." Zhu Chongguang showed a gloomy smile.

"All we have to do now is to wait, wait for Ji Yuan to continue to be in the limelight."

The rain outside the window gradually stopped, and gusts of wind blew the "forbearance" just written.

"When he is at the height of the limelight, what Liu Zhen hears, the emperor can hear."

Zhu Chongguang looked at the word forbearance, his eyes flashed with the essence of calculation, he calculated the emperor's heart.

As long as you have held supreme power in your hands, no matter how many years you have been buried, that desire will eventually flow in your blood and be engraved in your bones.
