Chapter 15: The Pattern of Men (Part II)
Zhu Xixiao talked about Yu Dayou for the first time. Lu Yanyuan pretended to be impatient and interrupted Zhu Xixiao's words, "When did you get into trouble, my father and your brother didn't help finish it?" Don't worry, tomorrow morning, the most favored Concubine Li will find a blank paper on the dresser, and there are four small words in the lower right corner of the white paper: 'Prince Yu personally reads'. As soon as the candle is baked, the words will appear on the blank paper, and everything that needs to be said will be explained on it. As long as His Royal Highness King Yu's benevolent name is true, and his obedience to Gao Gong's words is discounted, the two brothers of the Huang family will not hold you in front of the emperor! Approaching Zhu Xixiao, he lowered his voice and said, "Your brother and my father have talked a lot in the past few days, do you really like the daughter of Doctor Li's family?"
Zhu Xixiao felt inexplicably weak in his heart, punched Lu Yanyuan, and refuted: "What nonsense, she is still a yellow-haired girl who has not grown, how can I be!"
Lu Yanyuan handed over the two files: "Your brother has associated the reason why you don't want to marry Princess Ning'an to that Li Xiaxin." He told my father that Princess Ning'an looks delicate and weak on the outside, but her personality is actually as stubborn as Princess Zhu Shouyuan of Chang'an who suddenly 'died violently' more than ten years ago, and wants her to give up on you, unless it involves the throne of King Yu or the truth of Princess Chang'an's death. Your brother plans to stuff someone into King Yu's Mansion through Xu Cifu before the end of the year. He raised an eyebrow and smiled, meaning guess who it would be.
Zhu Xixiao poked his forehead with his index finger and middle finger: "Zhang Juzheng, editor of the Hanlin Academy, Xu Cifu's proud protΓ©gΓ©."
"I guessed it right at once, amazing, no wonder my father decided to let you take over the Jinyi Guard!"
Zhu Xixiao had an annoying expression: "Don't be poor, hurry up and hurry up with your go."
"It's good, take gunpowder, and if you say that you will change your face, you will change your face." Lu Yanyuan muttered, got up and walked out of the cell.
"The two princesses, Ning An and Chang An, were both born to Concubine Cao Duan. In the twenty-first year of Jiajing, Renyin Palace changed, in addition to assassinating the emperor's eighteen palace maids who were sentenced to death, the owner of Yikun Palace, who stayed overnight, Cao Duanfei, was also ordered by Empress Fang to Ling Chi. At that time, Princess Ning'an was still in infancy, although she was raised by Shen Guifei, she still had a very good relationship with her half-sister Princess Chang'an. In the twenty-sixth year of Jiajing, the West Palace caught fire for no reason, and Queen Fang was buried in the fire. In the twenty-eighth year of Jiajing, Princess Chang'an died violently for no reason. In the palace, many natural disasters that seem to come for no reason are actually man-made disasters. β
Zhu Xixiao rested his head on the wall, closed his eyes and thought, his head seemed to explode: "There was a fire, and the most honorable hostess couldn't be rescued." Who would assassinate a princess? The only explanation is that the princess has done something, because her half-sister has a close relationship with His Royal Highness King Yu, and the ill-intentioned people want to bring disaster to the pond fish and extend a poisonous hand to her. Therefore, the murderer who killed Princess Chang'an and King Yu should compete for the throne - King Jing, the Yan family and Dongchang. Sending a person with a very deep city government and smooth and accessible government into King Yu's Mansion is nothing more than asking him to teach King Yu how to be estranged from the Chengguo Mansion on the surface, but secretly he does everything he can to win him over; Let him tell the two brothers and sisters Yuwang and Ning An cleverly how stupid it is to replace the Chengguo Mansion with such a secret help as Jinyiwei for a useless ornament such as a horse and brother-in-law. But in this way, it is to make the Chengguo Mansion and even the entire Jinyiwei involved in the battle for the crown. β
Zhu Xixiao suddenly felt that he was very selfish and willful - just because of himself, he let his brother, the future commander of the Jinyi Guard, touch the emperor's taboo! Is it really just because I don't marry Princess Ning'an that I want to do something practical in the court? Do you really want to marry Li Xiaxin, and let her, a simple and comfortable girl, be involved in her treacherous and abyssal days, can you bear it? β
After a long time, Zhu Xixiao opened the file, but the content on it made him not know whether to be happy or sad - Xia Kesen's wife Dong'er and Li Shizhen's wife Wu Murong are close friends; During Li Shizhen's tenure as a judge in Tai Hospital, he adopted an orphan and named him Li Xiaxin.
Gao Gong angrily crumpled the letter and threw it on the ground, and said angrily: "Your Highness, this is purely a bunch of nonsense made up by Lu Bing in order to maintain the Yan Party. Hu Zongxian is a big corrupt official, it is said that there are dozens of concubines in his house, such a person, he actually said that the court could not do without him, and he could not do without him in the southeast, it is really ridiculous! β
King Yu said patiently: "Hu Zongxian can indeed be greedy, but he can also do it, take him from the position of governor of Zhejiang, can you guarantee that the person who takes over this position must be better than him?" Even if there is a person with both ability and integrity around us who is worthy of this position, will my father listen to us? Besides, it is still unknown whether Hu Zongxian can shake his father's trust in the Yan family, and we can't risk the overall situation of the southeast to resist the Japanese. β
Huang Jin also persuaded on the side: "Lu Bing did harm Xia Yan and Zeng Mo back then, but it is also true that he defended His Royal Highness in the Yang Jisheng case later. Therefore, you can't knock him to death with a stick and think that what he said and did was wrong. During the day, Zikai also received Li He's flying pigeon handbook, and now it seems that the letter is fake, and only Zhu Xixiao has so much courage and such a unique skill. Yu Dayou is already in his hands, and no matter how much we toss, it will be useless, we will only offend Lu Bing and Cheng Guogong in vain. His Royal Highness is already alone in the court, if he offends these two masters again...... It is better to take this opportunity to show them His Highness's overall view and generosity. β
King Yu stood up and said simply: "Now this king is a little dizzy, I don't know which of you two to listen to." Zhu Xixiao's family can be so open-minded as the son of a national family, but the prince of this king is intriguing for his own selfish interests. This king decided to put the others aside first, let's think about it first, and see if we can do something in the case of General Yu. β
Gao Gong sighed: "With His Highness's heart and mind, if he can be honored in the Ninth Five-Year Plan, it will be a blessing for the people in the world, but according to His Highness's current practice, it can't be ...... at all."
"This king has made up his mind, Mr. Gao doesn't need to say it anymore!" King Yu interrupted Gao Gong's words: "Before Mr. Yu's grievances are cleared, don't discuss any topics unrelated to this case." Alright, it's getting late, so please go back. β
