Chapter 18 Complaints
Today's crown prince Zhu Biao has a total of three sons-in-law, namely Zhu Xiongying, Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Yunxi.
Among them, Zhu Xiongying and Zhu Yunxi were both born to Zhu Biao's wife, Chang's, and Zhu Yunwen was born to Zhu Biao's step-family, the Lu family.
As a mother, the Lu family naturally favors her son Zhu Yunxi, and suppresses Zhu Yunxi intentionally or unintentionally, eager to raise Zhu Yunxi to be a waste.
Anyway, the crown prince Zhu Biao is obsessed with state affairs, and he can't manage too much of the affairs of the back house.
This back and forth has directly raised Zhu Yunxi into a cowardly character, and he is not favored by Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao.
It's not a big deal, though.
After all, whether it is according to the eldest and youngest row or the concubine row, the eldest son Zhu Xiongying is a well-deserved heir to the throne, and it doesn't matter what Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Yunxi say about the throne.
However, people are not as good as heaven, Zhu Xiongying was unfortunate to be infected with a vicious disease when he went out with Zhu Biao a few days ago, and he was about to die soon.
Once Zhu Xiongying dies, the position of the imperial grandson will be elected between Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Yunxi.
Look at Zhu Yunxi's cowardly appearance, the next imperial grandson is likely to be Zhu Yunxi!
Faced with the once-in-a-lifetime good news, the Lu family was naturally ecstatic.
But on the surface, the appearance still has to be pretended.
These days, regardless of the risk of infection, Lu insisted on serving decoction in front of Zhu Xiongying's hospital bed every day, and sometimes cried as if he was grief-stricken, which moved Zhu Yuanzhang and shouted that his daughter-in-law was worth marrying.
However, this time back and forth, the Lu family also relaxed its discipline of Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Yunxi.
Today, the Lu family was rarely persuaded by Zhu Biao from Zhu Xiongying, and originally returned to the palace to see his baby son, but he disappeared after looking for a long time.
finally took the palace people to look for a long time, and only then did they find Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Xiongying in this remote corner.
Lu Shi looked at Hu Changan, who was kneeling silently, and couldn't help but be angry in his heart.
A foreign man who came out of nowhere dared to swagger and bully his son, the future imperial grandson, Zhu Yunwen!
At this time, Zhu Yunxi also seized the opportunity, hugged Lu's thighs tightly, and began to complain blindly with a handful of snot and tears: "Mother, the child was playing with Yunxi's younger brother, and he was beaten by someone who came out of nowhere, mother, you must be the master of the child!" ”
Hu Changan couldn't help laughing when he heard this.
This Zhu Yunwen is also absolutely amazing, he is so two-faced and three-faced at a young age, yin and yang are violated, and he is worthy of being the future Emperor Jianwen.
No wonder he looked filial before he ascended the throne, but after he ascended the throne, he frantically cut the feudal domain, and several uncles were either demoted to commoners or killed.
But the real victim Zhu Yunxi ignored him, just silently tidied up his clothes and stood aside, obviously this kind of thing has happened countless times.
When Lu heard Zhu Yunwen's crying, he couldn't help but be even more angry.
This Diao Min, who doesn't know the number of etiquette, must be dragged to the Criminal Department to teach a good lesson in order to have a longer memory.
Lu Shi waved his sleeves and commanded loudly: "Come on, take down this rude Diao Min for me." ”
Suddenly, four strong eunuchs walked out of the team behind the Lu family, grabbed Hu Changan's limbs without saying anything, and pressed Hu Changan to the point where he couldn't move.
However, Hu Changan was not afraid, but he was neither humble nor arrogant and said to the Lu family: "Niangniang, the grass people were ordered by the emperor to enter the palace to plant potatoes, and this time I also inadvertently bumped into the princes fighting. ”
"Originally, the grass people didn't want to take care of it, but they accidentally saw His Royal Highness Zhu Yunxi pressing His Royal Highness Zhu Yunxi in the pool water, so he stepped forward to save His Royal Highness Zhu Yunxi."
"You fool, bold, how could my son do such a thing!" Lu Shi was furious, and even his voice was an octave higher, almost bursting his voice.
But secretly, the Lu family was also frightened.
This bear thing really seems to be something that his son Zhu Yunwen can do.
No, don't let the word get out.
At the critical moment of the battle for reserves, Zhu Yunwen can't afford to make a mistake.
Lu Shi was flustered in his heart, but he pretended to be calm on the surface, and asked Zhu Yunxi sternly: "Yunxi, what happened just now, did my brother press you in the water?" ”
Zhu Yunxi listened, his lips opened and closed, and he couldn't say a word.
The big brother helped himself, and he should tell the truth.
But once the truth is revealed, the aunt will definitely beat and scold herself secretly, and even deny herself food, which ......
After hesitating for a long time, Zhu Yunxi still didn't overcome the weakness in his heart after all, and whispered, "Brother...... My brother didn't press me into the water......"
When Lu Shi heard this, he was secretly proud in his heart.
Oh, Zhu Yunxi, this child has long been raised by himself, and he can't turn it over no matter how much he can't turn it over.
"You Diao Min, not only beat the prince, but also spread rumors and make trouble, come and drag people to the criminal department."
"Yes."
When he boarded, the four eunuchs set up Hu Changan and walked all the way to the direction of the Criminal Department.
Hu Changan was held and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
I didn't expect that this potato had not been planted yet, and I was going to take a day trip to the prison.
This palace is indeed a place where people eat people and don't spit out bones.
But Hu Changan is not afraid.
If you can't even do the most basic justice and morality, and you can't even save the innocent children who fall into the water, then what kind of manly husband is it?
......
Lu Zongyi, the secretary of the Criminal Department, encountered a big problem today.
The wife of the crown prince Zhu Biao, Lu Shi, sent someone to report that Hu Weiyong's son Hu Chang'an had collided with him in the palace and slandered the prince, and should be severely punished.
But this Hu Changan has just been named by Zhu Yuanzhang to enter the palace to plant potatoes in the early dynasty.
Don't punish it, the Lu family can't explain it.
Punish it, in case Hu Changan can't grow potatoes because he was detained by the Criminal Department, this pot is not ordinarily big.
After thinking about it, Lu Zongyi, the secretary of the Criminal Department, still decided to report this time to Zhu Yuanzhang and let Zhu Yuanzhang decide.
......
"What!"
After listening to the words of Lu Zongyi, the secretary of the Criminal Department, Zhu Yuanzhang was furious.
Unexpectedly, this Hu Chang'an was restless as soon as he entered the palace, and poked out such a big basket.
This seems to be just a trivial matter, but it deeply touched Zhu Yuanzhang's sensitive nerves.
Now that Zhu Xiongying is seriously ill, it seems that there are not many days left to live, and the next position of the emperor's grandson will be elected between Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Yunxi.
Framing Zhu Yunxi at this sensitive time, is it to support Zhu Yunxi to seize the throne?
Although Zhu Yunxi himself is not very good, his deceased mother Chang is the daughter of the famous Huaixi general Chang Yuchun, and she naturally has the support of relatives of the Huaixi faction.
Although Hu Weiyong has been demoted and left Beijing at this time, after all, he is the former leader of the Huaixi faction, and the possible cattiness in it makes Zhu Yuanzhang extremely frightened.
