Chapter 9: The Imperial Court Gives Medicine
Liu Ji gave a lecture on the first day, and Zhu Yuanzhang naturally cared.
Mao Xiang inquired about the news from the main hall and came to the Heavenly Palace to report it.
At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang was bowing his head to the desk, and on both sides of the imperial case were the sparse recitals that had been reviewed, as if he came in at any time, Zhu Yuanzhang was in this posture, and there would always be a government that could not be dealt with.
In the main hall, there were Zhu Biao and three subordinate officials of the East Palace, but they held the Qi Pai and said nothing, waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang to deal with the sparse performance at hand first.
Mao Xiang walked up to Zhu Yuanzhang's ear and bent down.
"Back to Your Majesty, Liu Ji talked about Zhao Jianlu, from the Tang Zhongshan County King immersed in singing and dancing, talking about the disaster of the White Horse, and then to the Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, different from what Song Bachelor said, Liu Ji always did not follow the annotations in the book, and also said the reason for Liu Xian's defeat, and the King of Qi listened very carefully."
"Teach kings to be upright."
"With a good heart, everything can be done, you don't have to be like an ordinary scribe, there is no benefit in just reciting dictionaries, he Liu Ji, or Liu Ji."
Zhu Yuanzhang said thoughtfully.
is happy to see Zhu Yu well-informed, but Liu Ji always makes him feel a little uneasy and worried.
"King Qi just wants to learn the scriptures and classics, tell Liu Ji, and let him ponder for us again."
After Mao Xiang received the order, he personally went to Liu's house to announce the decree.
Waiting for Mao Xiang to exit the hall, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the old eunuch next to him again, "Go and announce Zhu Rong." ”
In addition to studying with Liu Ji, Zhu Rong also had to copy the Zhaojian record on the palace wall every day, which was the task that Zhu Yuanzhang gave to each prince, so that he could see it when he walked by.
Don't look at being a prince, you can do nothing.
Zhu Rong and others, like courtiers, have things to do every day, just like the prince wants to go out of the pavilion to listen to the scriptures and feasts, and review and reciprocate.
At this time, Zhu Rong was under the palace wall of the six duty rooms.
The princes don't like to copy this palace wall the most, and the six civil officials come out of here and like to point fingers, but there is no way, Zhu Rong came the latest, and only this most disgusted palace wall remains.
However, it is impossible for Zhu Yu to copy it.
Separated by a wall, in the duty room at this time, Zhou Su, the head of the household department, was about to go to Zhongshu Province, and when he went out, he saw the eunuch ghostwriting with him, and he had already written a small half of the wall.
Zhou Su scolded vigorously: "What a bold man, a companion of the palace, he dares to deceive His Majesty!" ”
Zhou Su was a well-known civil official.
He used to be the attendant of the main hall, he was very knowledgeable, and taught the kings as his own children, once the king of Tan was not good at studying, he started to be heavy, and left a bamboo mark on the hand of the king of Tan.
Zhu Yuanzhang did not punish him, and began to reuse Zhou Su and made him the head of the household, and from then on, Zhou Su did not have such scruples about beating the prince......
Seeing Zhou Su, Zhu Yu remembered the empty seal case.
Among the officials executed in the empty seal case, the highest official position was Zhou Su.
Nearly a thousand officials were executed.
At this time, Zhou Su looked disappointed, as if the old gentleman couldn't hide his shame in the face of his former excellent disciple: "King Qi's bad behavior today is because the original minister did not teach well!" ”
"Ah, I just forgot about it."
Zhu Rong wanted to see if there was really a blank seal in the household department.
He walked forward past the two duty rooms, entered the household duty room, searched carefully, and really saw some blank paper on the case of a civil official.
There is only half a seal on each piece of paper, which is the seal of the place.
At this time, a little eunuch walked in and said eagerly: "His Royal Highness King Qi, Your Majesty has announced that you have come to Fengtian Palace." ”
……
After Liu Bowen returned home, he was about to take his two sons to weed the vegetable field, when a rude push came from the courtyard gate, and then Mao Xiang walked in and read out Zhu Yuanzhang's dictation:
"You taught King Qi, Your Majesty is very satisfied, Your Majesty let Lord Liu ponder again."
I heard about the advice of the DPRK and Chinese officials.
Liu Bowen coughed lightly, and then said: "Report to Your Majesty on my behalf, Liu Ji is infected with the wind and cold, and he can't enter the palace for a few days." ”
Mao Xiang glanced at Liu Bowen, nodded, and retreated.
Liu Bowen looked at the two sons behind him, with a solemn expression, "You leave the capital with your daughters, as your father said last time, don't come back in this life." ”
Liu Ji's two sons knelt on the ground, tears couldn't stop flowing, their father had become the teacher of the King of Qi, and the officials of the Manchu Dynasty said that His Majesty wanted to reuse him, but now they let them leave the capital, why?
"You don't have to know!"
Liu Bowen saw his son crying exhausted, and reprimanded them with a straight face, not that Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to kill him, but that he helped Zhu Rong, and he was going to re-enter the imperial court, and it was inevitable that he would offend the nobles of Huaixi again.
It's just a matter of seeing far away.
……
"Liu Bowen said that he was infected with wind and cold and did not enter the palace for a few days."
After listening to Mao Xiang's report, Zhu Yuanzhang's face changed for a while, and his eyes suddenly turned cold, as if he was often fooled and suddenly discovered the truth one day.
Some people are very angry, but they are calm.
Zhu Yuanzhang is like this.
Zhu Yuanzhang put down the notebook and said with a straight face: "I used to fight with us, Liu Ji always complained about his illness, and after eight years, we didn't see him sick, he really didn't miss us at all." ”
Zhu Yuanzhang was accustomed to discussing government affairs with Liu Ji.
After Li Shanchang became a minister, Zhu Yuanzhang asked Liu Ji, who can be my prime minister, the three pre-selectors were all vetoed by Liu Ji, and finally Zhu Yuanzhang asked, what about you Liu Ji? Just like when Liu Ji was invited out of the mountain, he politely refused this request.
Because Liu Ji knows that his upright personality is difficult to work with Zhu Yuanzhang, and precisely because Liu Ji wants to stay away from the imperial court, Zhu Yuanzhang can't feel the sincerity of the servant's death in Liu Ji.
Liu Ji is now sick again.
Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but sigh.
Mao Xiao said: "Your Majesty, Liu Ji seems to be really sick, he often observes the sky at night, and it seems that he has a cold. ”
Zhu Yuanzhang's face recovered, and his demeanor at this moment was compared to just now, which made people wonder if he was really angry, and his eyes seemed to be a little worried.
"It's been a while, Your Majesty stopped his money, so he hasn't been going to grab the medicine."
"Let the imperial doctor show Liu Bowen, and then let Hu Weiyong prepare some royal products, just say that we don't mean anything else, let him not think about it."
Zhu Rong was waiting outside the hall, Zhu Yuanzhang met the officials of Zhongshu Province head-on, and he was about to send the little eunuch in to ask, but he heard the little eunuch next to him whispering.
"Liu Bowen is going to be reused."
"Your Majesty gave him medicine and ordered Hu Xiang to prepare a royal tribute."
According to historical records, Liu Bowen was killed by Hu Weiyong's order, and there was a misunderstanding, Hu Weiyong used it very cleverly, and he was as shrewd as Liu Bowen could not dodge, that is, the medicine was given by Zhu Yuanzhang, and Liu Bowen thought that the person who wanted him to die was Zhu Yuanzhang.
The two little eunuchs walked towards the back of the Fengtian Palace, but were stopped by a figure.
"This king asks you, when did my father give the decree?"
"Yes...... It's been an hour. ”
If it weren't for the Fengtian Temple, Zhu Yan would have wanted to cry.
These damn guys, he wasted all his strength, if he didn't want to be cut down, he couldn't lose Liu Ji, a strategist.
"Your Royal Highness King Qi, where are you going?"
"Your Majesty has summoned you!!"
The imperial eunuch hurriedly shouted.
Zhu Rong tried his best to run towards the palace gate in a 100-meter sprint, Wu Guan fell to the ground, Liu Jiu in the back picked up and chased frantically, Zhu Rong ran to the palace gate, grabbed the horse of Gong Weisi, and ran directly towards Liu's house.
At this time, the Liu family, the imperial physician and the inspectors stood in the main room, and the imperial physician picked up the teapot, poured a small cup of medicinal soup, and put it in front of Liu Ji.
"Your Majesty is concerned about Lord Liu's illness and gave a pot of medicine to let Lord Liu not think about it."
"Lord Liu, please?"
Liu Ji sat in the main hall, as calm as before, he remembered that he strongly opposed Zhu Yuanzhang to rescue King Xiao Ming, remembered that he and Li Shanchang fought for the position of the first strategist under Zhu Yuanzhang's account, and remembered that he refused Deng Yu's request to let him assist Zhu Yuanzhang......
Liu Kievzuo and Zhu Yuanzhang were "invited" to go.
If it was placed before, whether it was Zhu Yuanzhang or Hu Weiyong, he could only drink this cup of medicinal wine, but now he has a choice.
"Lord Liu, please hurry up, can you?" The imperial doctor picked up the teacup and sent it to Liu Ji, a little hurried.
At this moment, a black soap shoe flew in from outside the door and hit the doctor in the head.
