Chapter 30: A Man of Good Heart
Jiang Bin, who was still thinking about how to escape and then retaliated against the Zhu family, was so angry that a mouthful of blood choked out of his nostrils when he learned that he was about to be executed.
Seeing Jiang Bin being dragged to the execution table by two brocade guards, Zhu Houxi said to Qingyang Bo Xiachen beside him: "This son of the world never likes to hold grudges, because if there is revenge, you have to take revenge." ”
Xia Chen, who was woken up by cold water, didn't care about the cold on his body, and nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, what the prince said is right." ”
After seeing Zhu Houxi's eyes unkind, Xia Chen continued: "Shizi, you continue, Xia Chen listens. ”
Only then did Zhu Houxi continue to ask: "Do you know the purpose of this prince asking you to come to see the execution?" ”
"I know, I don't worry, even if Xia Chen is given ten dares, Xia Chen will not dare to be unfavorable to the prince and His Majesty."
After Qingyang Bo's random assurance, Zhu Houxi nodded with satisfaction, got up and left the viewing platform, leaving Xia Chen who breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhu Houxi, who boarded the carriage, said to the coachman: "Enter the palace." ”
Wenyuan Pavilion.
Zhu Houxi also came to the cabinet office for the first time, a two-story classical building, using the architectural method of light and dark and three.
As soon as Zhu Houxi entered the door, someone took the initiative to greet him: "Shizi." ”
Zhu Houxi looked up and saw that it was Yang Tinghe, the first assistant of the cabinet.
"Elder Yang Ge."
A gentle smile appeared on Zhu Houxi's face, as if there had been no unpleasantness between the two of them before.
Yang Tinghe said with a smile: "The prince came just in time, and there are some official documents that need to be dealt with, why don't you go together?" ”
"As Yang Ge Lao wishes."
Next, Zhu Houyu began to regret his decision to enter the cabinet, because the workload of the cabinet was too great, the information from all over the country was summarized, the money was checked in and out, and all the work had to be done again in the cabinet.
Until nightfall, the work was not over, but the food arrived, which also gave Zhu Houxi a chance to breathe.
Eating the food sent by Shang Shan Si, Zhu Houxi asked casually: "Elder Yang Ge, there is something I don't understand, I don't know if Elder Yang Ge can tell me?" ”
Today's Yang Tinghe seems to be very easy to talk to, and he is not the same as in the past.
"Shizi, but it doesn't hurt to say it."
Zhu Houxi put down the dishes and chopsticks, looked directly at Yang Tinghe with his eyes and asked, "Then the Japanese prince and the eldest brother are trapped, why did Yang Ge Lao prevent Gu Dayong from leaving the city?" ”
Yang Tinghe said with a wry smile: "This official is also forced to be helpless, if Gu Dayong leads the army out of the city, not to mention how much turmoil it will cause, the prince and His Majesty may not be able to return to the palace safely." ”
Hearing Yang Tinghe's answer, Zhu Houxi's heart was shocked.
"Why don't you want to think about it, if Jiang Bin has no internal response in the palace, how can he know His Majesty's whereabouts?"
Zhu Houxi suddenly felt that Jiang Bin had been killed early, and he did not interrogate who revealed the whereabouts of Emperor Zhengde at all.
Yang Tinghe said calmly: "The prince is a kind-hearted person, otherwise, he would not have taken the risk of violating the ancestral system and rushing to save His Majesty." ”
Zhu Houxi was a little confused by this, and felt that he was kind-hearted, and he didn't always trouble himself, what was the reason.
"Then why do you always make trouble with this world?"
Yang Tinghe said with a smile: "The prince is still young, I don't understand at all, if we don't target the son, the son of the world is afraid that it will be more dangerous, only those of us who have been targeting the son of the world, can make the son of the world safer." ”
Zhu Houxi asked with some uncertainty: "Are you afraid that the son of this world will be unsealable, and his merits will be high?" ”
Zhu Houxi regretted it when he said this, because Yang Tinghe didn't dare to give this answer, and the rest of the cabinet didn't dare to give it, and whoever gave it was dying.
"Shizi, look at this report."
Yang Tinghe put down the dishes and chopsticks in his hand, picked up a copy of the report and handed it to Zhu Houxi's hand.
Zhu Houxi picked up the newspaper and looked at it carefully, and was shocked into a cold sweat at the moment, because it was written in the newspaper that there was something different about the three guards in Liaodong.
What is Liaodong Sanwei, Nurhachi's father, is the commander of Liaodong Sanwei, because his uncle killed his father, he embarked on the road of revenge, and later established Houjin, but at the moment Nurhachi was not born, and where did the change come from.
"Your Majesty, this is going on the expedition again."
Yang Tinghe broke through the mystery in one sentence, and let Zhu Houxi understand that this report was Zhengde looking for someone to play, and the purpose was to give him a reason to go out and wave.
Zhu Houxi felt that it was not strange that he knew about Nurhachi, but it was very strange for Zhengde to know, could it be that he rescued a traverser, the current Zhengde is no longer the Zhengde Emperor in history, and he is also a person in later generations.
Zhu Houxi felt that this matter was too amazing, and he was a little unacceptable, so he immediately asked: "How much does Elder Yang Ge think this matter is true or false?" ”
Yang Tinghe shook his head.
"It doesn't matter whether this matter is true or not, the important thing is that Your Majesty thinks it is true, this thing is true, Your Majesty thinks it is false, and this matter is considered false."
Zhu Houxi had always felt that the ancients were not as smart as the later generations, because he had not received nine years of compulsory education, but now he realized that he was wrong, the wisdom of the ancients was not simple, especially the officials who could be in high positions, it was even more not simple.
"This son of the world, I have been taught."
Zhu Houxi respectfully saluted Yang Tinghe, and the gaze in his eyes was full of sincerity.
Yang Tinghe was so excited that he almost jumped up when he saw Zhu Houxi like this.
"The prince is exempt from courtesy, and the official is also a kind reminder."
Zhu Houxi said in a sincere tone: "In the future, I hope that Yang Ge will teach more." ”
After a few people ate and dealt with some official documents, Zhu Houxi went back to the palace and returned to the palace.
As soon as Zhu Houxi returned to Xingwang's Mansion, Yuan Zonggao, who had been waiting for a long time, shouted: "Shizi." ”
"Say it."
Zhu Houxi saw Yuan Zonggao's hesitant look and knew that he had something to find him.
Yuan Zonggao hesitated again and again and finally said: "Shizi, my subordinates don't understand, why did Shizi want to save Your Majesty?" ”
Zhu Houxi thought for a while, and said without perfunctory: "The eldest brother is a great emperor, with him, I believe that in the near future, the Ming Dynasty will be even stronger." ”
Yuan Zonggao said unwillingly: "But if Your Majesty loses, the prince will end up with his brother, with the wisdom of the prince, the prince can also make the Ming Dynasty strong and prosperous." ”
Zhu Houxi sighed silently, he can make Daming strong, but he can't stand the cub selling his field, none of his own species is a reliable emperor, no matter how good the family business is, he will be ruined, and he can't always look at those descendants, so he will choose this way to try to change the fate of Daming.
Zhu Houxi couldn't say these words to Yuan Zonggao, so he could only sigh: "There are some things you don't understand, if you feel that it is not good to follow this son, you can find another job, or this son will recommend you to the eldest brother." ”
After speaking, Zhu Houxi walked to the dormitory without looking back, leaving Yuan Zonggao, who was standing in place at a loss.
