Chapter 43 Snowfall in Jinling
He didn't play with Baoqing for long, because Zhu Huan had more important things to do.
The afterglow was gone, and Baoqing, who was tired of playing, leaned on Zhu Huan's arms and fell asleep, and after Zhu Huan made sure that the girl was asleep, he put Baoqing in the arms of the old eunuch.
"Send Baoqing back to her palace to sleep, and tell her when she wakes up that this king will take her to play with the fourth brother tomorrow." Zhu Huan said lightly to the old eunuch: "Whether it is the people in the palace, whether it is the Yan Wangfu or the Qi Wangfu, you have the right to transfer at will. But the ugly words are said in the front, if Baoqing hurts a hair, this king will chop you alive. ”
"Yes." The old eunuch bowed in response.
"Well, that's it, you take Baoqing back first."
……
The stone wall that draws the pattern of the angry dragon and the sea, the emerald green glazed tiles, and the red lacquered golden dragon pillar, here is the Qianqing Palace of Jinling.
Zhu Huan climbed the high steps and walked into the main hall. The hall was lit with ancient bronze lamps, burning flowing sandalwood, and Zhu Yunwen was wearing a gray monk's robe, holding a scroll of scriptures, and chanting in a low voice. On the dragon case in front of him, there are jade seals and tiger talismans.
When Zhu Huan led the army to leave the capital, he did not take the jade seal and the talisman with him, but stayed in the Qianqing Palace with Zhu Yunwen.
"The color of the relics is not different from emptiness, emptiness is not different from color, color is emptiness, emptiness is color, and the same is true for thinking and acting knowledge. The relics are the empty phase of the laws, neither born nor destroyed, neither dirty nor pure, neither increased nor decreased......" Zhu Yunwen didn't seem to see Zhu Huan, just calmly chanting the scriptures.
A few months ago, Zhu Yunwen was still the Jianwen Emperor who was in the deep dragon, although he disguised himself with humility and etiquette, but the arrogance in his bones was indeed exposed. And now, Zhu Yunwen seems to have really become a monk, with no desires and no desires.
"Do you know why the steps of the Qianqing Palace are so high?" Zhu Huan slowly walked in front of Zhu Yunwen.
Zhu Yunwen did not answer Zhu Huan's question, and still recited the sutra: "For the sake of nothing, Bodhisattva, according to Prajnaparamita, has no obstacles in the mind; There is no obstacle, there is no terror, far from the upside-down dream, the ...... nirvana"
Zhu Huan replied to his question just now: "Because, at the end of the steps, is the emperor, the master of this huge empire. The courtiers need to climb to the top step by step, and by the time they reach the top, the courtiers are exhausted, so that they can meet the supreme ruler, the emperor, with the greatest reverence. ”
Zhu Yunwen's voice paused, and then continued to chant.
"But what would they think if they climbed to the top and found that the emperor was actually a weak waste?"
Zhu Huan asked himself: "Let me tell you, they will think-the emperor is just like this, why can't I replace him?" So even if you put on a dragon robe, you are not an emperor, you are not worthy of virtue! ”
"Presumptuous!"
Zhu Yunwen finally couldn't hide the anger in his heart, and smashed the scripture in his hand into Zhu Huan's face.
Zhu Huan took the scriptures very easily, and said unrelentingly: "Zhu Yunwen, what kind of thing are you, you are also worthy of being called the emperor?" Put on a robe and chant the scriptures with false compassion, and you are a true bodhisattva? I'm telling you, if you can't be called an emperor, you can't be called a monk, you're a waste! ”
Zhu Yunwen was so angry that he covered his heart angrily and sweated profusely.
"The king, swept Liuhe, and the eight desolations were called ministers. The emperor can make the king bow down and be a minister. The heart is like the vast sea, and the mountains and rivers are turbulent when you raise your hands and feet, and you Zhu Yunwen, are you worthy? ”
Zhu Huan took a step forward, held the jade seal on the dragon case with one hand, and the tiger talisman with the other, staring directly at Zhu Yunwen: "If you are really amazing, how can you fall into today's field?" ”
Zhu Yunwen was speechless, his face was full of decadence, and he sat down on the dragon chair.
If someone had made such a mockery of him a few years ago, then Zhu Yunwen would not have taken it seriously at all, and would only wave his hand calmly, signaling the guards to drag down this rebellious minister who was rebellious and spoke wildly and punished the Nine Clans.
But Zhu Huan is different, Zhu Yunwen was frustrated in his hands. It was this man who broke the wings of his eagle soaring in the sky, and made him fall into the dirt to be trampled on and humiliated.
Zhu Yunwen's state of mind collapsed.
"Rebel, you will have a rare good death! After you die, you must not be listed in the ancestral temple, your name will always be listed as a rebel, and when you go to Huangquan, what kind of face do you have to meet the first emperor?! Zhu Yun roared.
"That's it."
Zhu Huan held the jade seal and the tiger talisman, and said calmly: "You can't hold the imperial power and military power given to you by the old man." The jade seal and the tiger talisman do not belong to you. ”
"Who does that belong to, does it belong to you, a rebel and thief?" Zhu Yunwen sneered.
"Belongs to Zhu Di, my fourth brother, the Yan King of the Ming Dynasty!"
Zhu Huan shouted suddenly, and Zhu Yunwen, who was caught off guard, was startled, and the back of his head hit the golden dragon head of the dragon chair, and he hissed in pain.
Zhu Huan sneered: "Look at your B appearance yourself, do you have a little bit of an emperor's appearance?" ”
Zhu Yunwen gritted his teeth, watched Zhu Huan take away the jade seal and the tiger talisman, and turned to leave.
In the empty hall, Zhu Yunwen leaned on the dragon chair decadently, the monk's clothes were sloppy, and he did not have the slightest imperial temperament, but like a child who had been robbed of his favorite toy.
For a long time, there was a heart-rending howl in the Qianqing Palace.
……
There was a rare heavy snow in Jinling City, and the white covered the buildings, and the air was full of cold breath.
In the rich snow, Zhu Huan, who was wearing a snow-white mink coat, walked into the Yanwang Mansion.
"Tuk Tuk!"
A crisp knock sounded, Zhu Di pushed open the door of the study, and saw Zhu Huan with snowflakes between his hair, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment: "It's snowing so hard, what are you doing?" ”
As he spoke, Zhu Di hurriedly pulled Zhu Huan into the house, which was covered with ground dragons, but it was warm.
"Is there anything you can't wait for the snow to stop tomorrow, what can you do if it snows so hard and you get a chill?" Zhu Di was distressed and swept away the snowflakes on his younger brother's body.
"What's the matter, look at my physique, what kind of illness doesn't have long eyes and dare to touch me?" Zhu Huan said happily, glancing at it casually, but found that there were large parchment maps hanging on the four walls of the study, and the maps were densely covered with small black pressed characters and cinnabar-colored dotted lines.
"Still studying the route of the march?" Zhu Huan sighed: "If you work as hard as you do, you will lose your life." ”
"No, no, if I stand in front of this map for a while, the brothers in the Yanwang Mansion will die a few fewer people." After making sure that Zhu Huan was fine, Zhu Di picked up the wolf pen again, stared at the map and pondered, sketching on it from time to time: "The battle of the year before is over, and it will have to be fought after the year." Huai'an wants to fight, Xuzhou wants to fight, and Peixian wants to fight. After the battle of Peixian is over, we will fight Jinan, we will fight Dezhou, and we will fight with the main force of the Southern Army. Even if the domestic war is over, the foreign war will continue to be fought, and it is not enough to hold on to the country handed down by the old man, but it is also necessary to expand and fight a vast territory for future generations......"
Without waiting for Zhu Di to finish speaking, Zhu Huan said: "Are you planning to fight the battle of ten generations alone, I can be regarded as serving you." ”
