Liu Zhiran played with the wine glass in his hand, and said leisurely: "I wish the boss can believe in the next, it is a great honor to be in the next, but in the business, in the next has already stated that this is a transaction, in the name of the Lu family's rice and grain to help you send the rice to the Turks, you promised to supply me to the Lu family's rice and grain can also get a place." ”

"Brother Lu, rest assured, I wish Wanliang is also a man who is true to his word, and honesty is also well-known in this northwest area, in this way, I will immediately send half of the rice grain to your Lu family, and the remaining half, after the matter is completed, I will pay immediately, brother, what do you think?" Zhu Wanliang said straightforwardly.

"I wish the boss a good time," Liu Zhiran drank the wine glass in his hand, and "dang" put the wine glass in his hand heavily on the table, and agreed in a deep voice, "Deal." ”

The boss Zhu also happily drank all the wine in his hand with a of his neck, and laughed when he looked at this old brother Lu.

"Okay, refreshing, Brother Lu is really a man of temperament, and I have an appetite for Lao Zhu, I will send someone over tomorrow and ask him to take your Lu family's convoy to Turkic."

In the same moonlight, in the palace of the continent country.

The crown prince Zhu Ziqi was slowly walking into the study of the East Palace, and in front of him were two eunuchs with lanterns leading the way, followed by two internal guards.

In the study, Lu Fei had already been waiting for a while.

Every night when the prince was studying, someone took turns to accompany him, and this rule began when the prince was five years old.

It's just that when the prince was young, everyone in the East Palace was really accompanying him to study; But after the prince became an adult, everyone in the East Palace gradually began to discuss some state affairs with the prince in the study.

"I've seen Your Highness." Lu Fei saw the prince coming from a distance, and he hurriedly bowed and saluted, very respectful.

Zhu Ziqi walked into the room and said softly: "Mr. Lu doesn't need to be polite, today I went to the queen mother and Concubine Shun to say goodbye, so I came a little late,"

Lu Fei is a subordinate official of Zhu Ziqi, but after waiting for a while, it is harmless, and it is even more natural to say it, but Zhu Ziqi still seriously explained to Lu Fei the reason why he was late.

Lu Fei knew the prince's character, he had always been gentle and polite, and he had a generous temperament, so he was not surprised that the prince behaved like this, and he straightened up with kindness.

After the two saluted, the prince and Lu Fei sat separately in the study.

The prince's study is set up in the west of the East Palace, very spacious, two rooms are connected, in addition to the prince's usual reading and office room, behind a grille on the side, is a large room full of sandalwood bookshelves, which are placed in the prince's books that have been read and collected over the years.

There were no books in the study, just a pair of bows and arrows on one wall, and a landscape painting on the other.

In the painting, the overlapping mountains, the meandering and clear streams, the winding paths that bypass the chaimen leading to the valley, and the several huts in the col, there are two people sitting opposite each other in the house, and the realm is quiet.

It is the famous painting of the five generations of famous artists Juran - Akiyama asks the Taotu.

This is a congratulatory gift from the emperor to the prince on the twelfth birthday of the prince, which is very valuable.

After the prince sat down, he looked dignified, picked up a book and looked at it himself, with peace of mind and tranquility, without the slightest intention of chatting with Lu Fei.

But Lu Fei had something in his heart like a fish in his throat, and he didn't vomit or be unhappy.

One person reads quietly and quietly, and the other is anxious but does not dare to speak.

The study was silent for a while, only the sound of the prince occasionally turning the pages, in the Sanding smoker, white cigarettes rose from the furnace, and the plum fragrance floated, which was the prince's favorite incense - cold plum under the moon.

Lu Fei looked at the prince's peaceful eyebrows and calm expression, and the anxiety in his heart couldn't bear it anymore, and blurted out: "Your Royal Highness, the second prince is openly confronting you above the court, so presumptuous, but the emperor is resigned to the second prince, in the long run, how can you get it, you have to come up with countermeasures." ”

The prince didn't raise his eyelids, still looked at the book in his hand, and said lightly: "It's okay, the second brother is still young, and he is impatient, but he just wants to share his father's worries, this is filial piety, you can be considerate, and ,...... again."

The prince looked up at Lu Fei, who was looking anxious and indignant, and continued unhurriedly: "Besides, he is now defenseless and has no half-job, what are you anxious about?" In the final analysis, we are still brothers after all, even if we can't be brothers, friends and brothers, we can't kill them all, and it doesn't hurt for him to behave in front of his father. ”

"But, the prince ......" Lu Fei was about to say more, but was interrupted by the prince's wave of his hand.

"Okay," the prince called Lu Fei's words soothingly, and said with a smile: "Mr. Lu, you are all too nervous, tonight's reading is here, you can step down." ”

"Yes." Lu Fei was helpless, so he had to get up from the side of the case, bow and retreat.

The prince looked at Lu Fei's back as he walked out of the courtyard, put down the book in his hand, and rubbed his eyebrows tiredly.

I was late just now, because when I went to ask my biological mother Concubine Shun for peace in the evening, Concubine Shun pulled him to cry for a long time.

first routinely complained that the queen secretly stumbled her in the palace, making the emperor disgusted with her, and never stepped into her Chonghua Palace for more than three months, and then blamed himself for not being able to help him.

The prince still remembers that at that time, Concubine Shun cried and blamed herself: "I only hate that the concubine has no wrists, but she fell for the queen's tricks, was rejected by the emperor, and was rejected by the emperor, but she was afraid that it would affect the prince, and now the second prince is the queen's parent, and his temperament is as insidious as the queen. ”

The prince couldn't help but sigh thinking about Concubine Shun's cry and Lu Fei's anxiety.

It's just that his proposition in today's book was opposed by the second prince, and the emperor also listened to the opinion of the second prince, and such a trivial matter made everyone around him worry to this point?

Zhu Ziqi couldn't help but smile secretly in his heart, did he really make people worry about not being able to sit on the throne of the crown prince?

He walked to the courtyard and looked at the bright moon in the sky, today is the first day of the new year, the moon is bright, bent like a silver hook, hanging in the treetops, next to it are two unusually bright stars accompanied by the left, like a smiling face in the sky is looking at himself with a smile.

Such a beautiful view, it is refreshing.

But the people in this palace didn't care to enjoy this beautiful scenery, just because the officials of the Qin Heavenly Prison said today that this is a double star with the moon, which is a great omen.

"The moon and the stars shine together, that is, there is hunger. The moon and Taibai are combined, and their troops are rising. The crown prince muttered two sentences from today's Qin Tianjian recital.

It was precisely because of these two sentences that the emperor was stunned.

The emperor issued three orders at that time.

One is the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and strictly deals with dereliction of duty officials and deals with them severely; In the Criminal Department, all criminals are not allowed to be treated leniently, and as long as they are committed as adulterers, the punishment will be increased; The three military departments conducted a self-examination, and all the generals stationed in Beijing were to return to Beijing to report on their work, and those who dared to delay were dealt with by military law, and all were removed from their posts and killed.

It is imperative that the world is politically clear and peaceful.

The promulgation of this decree immediately changed the face of the crown prince and his loyal ministers.
