But the crown princess felt that something was wrong, and if she wanted to take a concubine, she had to get the princess's consent, this was the rule.

Shi Kai strode in from the gate, carrying a burden in his hand, wearing a strong suit, and a smile between his eyebrows.

"Grandpa Guo, we can go."

Cheng Yuan said a few words, chatted with Zhu Gaochi and his wife for a while, and followed An Cheng back to the bedroom to look at the child.

An Cheng looked at Cheng Yuan, ordered someone to bring a few thick cotton robes and said, "Take it, if it's not enough, this palace is asking people to send it to you." ”

Cheng Yuan was stunned, then shook his head and said that he didn't need anything.

Yingtianfu, south of the city, Dabao'en Temple.

The construction area of Dabao'en Temple is very large, and it is built in full accordance with the standards of the imperial palace, whether it is the materials or the design of craftsmen, the grade is not low at all.

Historically, it took 19 years for the completion of the Great Bao'en Temple, and Cheng Yuan analyzed the reasons for the slow progress of the project, and found that there were too few craftsmen, and then recruited workers from all over the country, but they were all collected in moderation.

It has only been a few years since the end of the Jingjing, and the Ming Dynasty is still recovering, so it can't hurt the vitality, but Chengyuan is sure to build, and now it won't take nineteen years.

After Cheng Yuan was wooed by Ji Gang after he came to the door, he knew that the previous two offenses were not good, and he should fight back, at least not to be a lamb to be slaughtered.

At present, for him, Dabao'en Temple is one of the things that Emperor Yongle attaches the most importance to, and only by arranging this matter now can he have the strength to do his own learning.

Cheng Yuan glanced at the officials of the Ministry of Industry and asked about the current process, Zheng Ci, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, took Cheng Yuan to inspect the construction site and said, "Master Yao has been going to the Heavenly Realm Temple in the past few days, and he will come over in a few days." ”

"Hmm."

Dao Yan has been martyred since the martyrdom. He was named the prince and young master by Zhu Di, and his surname was Yao, and he was given the name Guangxiao.

Zhu Di asked Yao Guangxiao to save his hair and return it to the vulgar last year, but Yao Guangxiao refused. Helplessly, the Yongle Emperor gave him a mansion and a palace maid, Yao Guangxiao still did not accept it, but lived in the temple, Qingshou Temple and Tianjie Temple are places where Yao Guangxiao often goes.

But Cheng Yuan is still used to calling him Daoyan.

The officials of the DPRK and China respected him, Master Yao.

"Zhenguogong, the main hall, and the apse have been basically completed, and from next year, we can start to build other side halls."

Cheng Yuan's feet were littered with wood, stones, bricks, etc., He said, "Zheng Shangshu? ”

"What do you command?" Zheng Ci asked.

"Someone to help me clean up a room, I live here, you've been busy for a long time, I'll leave it here, and there will be someone to guard this place?"

There are wood and stone everywhere, if anyone sets off a firework during the festival and burns the wood, the Yongle Emperor blames it, it is not good.

Zheng Ci said with a smile: "Don't worry, Guogong, this is the Marquis of Yangwu who is managing." ”

"Oh? Xue Liu, where does he live, I'll go and see him. Cheng Yuan said with a smile.

Yangwu Marquis Xue Lu, also known as Xue Liu.

A native of Jiaozhou, his ancestral home is Hancheng, Shaanxi, he joined the army in Beiping, and then followed Zhu Di to raise troops to Jingjing, with outstanding military achievements, and was promoted to the governor of the capital.

During the Yongle period in history, Xue Lu accompanied the army to the Northern Expedition several times, and presided over the construction of Beijing, the official to the right governor, during the Xuande period, Xue Lu pacified Zhu Gaoxu with Xuanzong, and served as the general of Zhenshuo several times.

Craftsmen and officials lived in the large courtyard on the periphery of Bao'en Temple, which was originally reserved for the side hall, but because the building was built from the inside out, it was given to the workers first.

At this moment, the courtyard was quiet, the craftsmen had basically rested, Cheng Yuan entered the courtyard, and was led directly by Zheng Ci to Xue Lu.

It stands to reason that you have to report before you can enter, but when the guard saw that it was Zhen Guogong, he immediately arched his hand and said, "I have seen Zhen Guogong." ”

"Master Hou, the slave family is here~"

Cheng Yuan's footsteps stopped, Zheng Ci pretended to ask the people behind him, and the guards also lowered their heads.

"What's the matter, the family of the sixth son is here?" Cheng Yuan asked the guard.

"No, it's ......"

"Got it, got it." Cheng Yuan stood outside and shouted Xue Lu's name, Xue Lu immediately ran out, his head wrapped in bandages, and he looked at Cheng Yuan in disheveled, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

"Zhen Guogong, please." Xue Lu hurriedly smiled.

The woman in the house also had a blue nose and swollen face.

Cheng Yuan was stunned for a moment, this raised woman is really fresh and refined, the two of them are like fighting, what kind of tune are they playing......

Seeing Cheng Yuan's unpredictable expression, Xue Lu glanced at the woman and said, "Yun'er, go make tea." ”

The woman hurriedly bowed her head and went out, and then brought in tea.

Cheng Yuan sat down and said: "My father still understands Brother Xue very well, the construction field is deserted, and it is not a big deal to bring a woman here." ”

Xue Lu shook his head and said, "Alas, Grandpa Guo really wants to shame me to death, it's hard to say." ”

Cheng Yuan took the tea held by the woman, he Xue Lu is not too good, but it is not bad, that is, in the past, how to look at his expression, it is the same as Dou E.

At that moment, curiosity came, and after a few cups of tea with Xue Lu, Cheng Yuan looked at the woman with clear eyebrows, and said in surprise: "Is Ji Gang so arrogant." ”

Xue Lu smiled bitterly, "Yun'er, she is a Qingqi person from Qinhuai River, and her identity is not good, a few days ago, Ji Gang learned of her reputation and insulted Yun'er, I can't wait to kill him!" ”

The corner of the woman's mouth was bruised, and she ran over and hugged Xue Lu and said, "Master, we can't fight, the slave family can be with the master, and we will be satisfied." ”

Xue Lu sighed, hugged Yun'er, and said that he was useless.

Cheng Yuan said: "Why don't you tell Your Majesty." ”

Xue Lu shook his head and said that if this matter spread, his reputation would be ruined, and besides, this Yun'er had a bad background, and the court would have to lose face.

In fact, Xue Lu knew in his heart how he could beat Ji Gang, Ji Gang was a big man behind him, even if he was difficult to make a merit, but when he said this, the wife of the family knew about it, and it was indispensable to make trouble.

Besides, Zhu Di may not necessarily be towards him.

"Master~" Yun'er hugged Xue Lu and cried into tears.

Cheng Yuan said angrily: "Ji Gang, this beast, is really getting more and more arrogant. ”

…………

Chen Ying had already learned from Juma Huguan that Cheng Yuan lived in Dabao'en Temple, so he brought Ji Gang to discuss the method.

When Ji Gang came over, Chen Ying found an excuse to send Ma Huguan away.

"Chen Yushi, so cautious?"

Chen Ying nodded, he has always been very cautious and careful, and he will consider many things, so he will not easily overturn.

"It's not that next summer, when the main body of the three halls of Bao'en Temple is completed, the idea is to lead to lightning strikes and burn them, I think it's not better to burn them down directly."

Ji Gang said.

Chen Ying glanced outside the room, opened the dark room of the study and invited Ji Gang in.

"Your Majesty, are you a fool to be Your Majesty? Set fire directly, Your Majesty will definitely investigate this matter to the end, and we will be exposed. ”

Ji Gang said: "Lightning strike? Feasible? ”

Chen Ying said: "Of course, the three major halls of the Hongwu Palace were unfortunately struck by lightning, so a second lightning strike is also possible. ”

"But it's been too long." Ji Gang shook his head, thinking that he was turned away that day, he was very angry.

Seeing Ji Gang like this, Chen Ying said patiently: "There is another plan." ”

Ji Gang asked, "Hurry up." ”

"Originally, I thought that I could start from the body of the little emperor and grandson, so that Cheng Yuan would be implicated, and I could also help King Han get rid of the thorn in his eye.

But Cheng Yuan sent it to the door, then we might as well make a collapse, until then. The collapse will only have something to do with the craftsmen, what does it have to do with us. ”

Ji Gang said: "Then by the way, Xue Lu will be stoned to death together." ”

Chen Ying was stunned: "This ...... It's not right. ”

Ji Gang didn't care, "What's wrong, Lao Tzu just thinks that woman is run, and he Xue Lu cried and shouted, how can this matter be spread out." ”

Chen Ying nodded: "Then buy a few craftsmen, choose the opportunity, let the Bao'en Temple collapse, and stone him to death." ”

"Can you be stoned? In case you can't kill ......"

"Then we'll think of something else." Ji Gang lowered his voice and said, "Could it be that Cheng Yuan became the person on the prince's side?" At that point, there will be no chance of winning. ”

Chen Ying thought for a while, UU read the book "King Han told me that His Royal Highness loves the third princess very much, and he wants to keep Chengyuan's life."

Ji Gang was disdainful, thinking that Zhu Gaoxu's inability to do big things was the kindness of a woman, and said: "What are you afraid of, the King of Han didn't go to the north."

If Cheng Yuan dies, he won't blame you when he comes back, and since His Royal Highness King Zhao is willing to form an alliance with His Royal Highness King Han, we should also resist unanimously. ”

Chen Ying was very surprised, Ji Gang was really bold.

Cheng Yuan is the first prince of the Yongle Dynasty, and he will marry Princess Xianning next year, so King Zhao can also do it.

Ji Gang said: "King Zhao said, if the big things can be achieved in the future, then make up for the two royal highnesses, according to the Hongwu ancestral system, it is strictly forbidden for the princess to marry two husbands in a row, you look at those princesses of the Hongwu Dynasty, not all of them are doing well."

Mei Yin is dead, isn't Princess Ningguo still fine, it's just ......"

Chen Ying said, "What? ”

"I think it's a scourge to keep Chengyuan's son." Ji Gang was puzzled: "But King Zhao didn't allow me to attack that child." ”
