Chapter 468: Scarlet Omen
Wuying Palace.
"Actually, let's let you go to Jiangxi to investigate Liu Lian's case, but secondly, no matter how important his son is Liu Bowen, he can't be guilty of the Prince of Daming to investigate him." Zhu Yuanzhang finally instructed earnestly:
"The most important reason why we let you go is the Yellow Book! That is the foundation of the long-term stability of the Ming Dynasty, and there is no room for error! Liu Lian has been implementing the Yellow Book in Jiangxi for almost two years, although he has not completed the whole work, but the stall has been rolled out, and he must not give up halfway! So let's let you have a private visit to Weifu, go down and take a look, and ask the people what they really think of the Yellow Book. ”
"That's it......" The sixth child then understood why his father wanted to do so much. It's obviously a pot of stewed and pulled down, what are you doing with all those things?
After a pause, Zhu Yuanzhang said in a deep voice: "If the opinions of the common people are not big, you will finish the errand for Liu Lian - the Yellow Book pilot cannot be lost, this is the most important thing." ”
"The retainers obey." Zhu Zhen replied.
"Go and report to your stepmother and concubine, and tell them that we didn't force you to go to Jiangxi, but you took the initiative to go." Zhu Yuanzhang said with a serious face: "This is very important. ”
"But I didn't say that Weifu would go for a private visit, I wanted to shake my majesty." The sixth man muttered: "How dangerous is the private visit of the microserver, if you don't get it right, you have to ask for food......"
"There's a chance for you to shake off your majesty." Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily: "Say, what conditions can I not betray Lao Tzu?" ”
"Let me get married two years later." The sixth child immediately made a request: "Erchen hasn't played enough." ”
"You are really persevering...... the prince said speechlessly: "You are only fourteen or sixteen this year, and you are still two years old, not enough for you to play?" ”
"I'm playful." The sixth said with a smile, in fact, he felt that sixteen years old was too young, and marrying a fourteen-year-old princess would really cost him his own life. If you write it, you will be sealed.
"Okay, then give you two years of grace until you're eighteen, okay? Couldn't be more late! "Zhu Yuanzhang now has a bunch of grandchildren, but he doesn't care much about his son's marriage date in the future.
If he gets married later, he can still break the bill later.
"Deal!" The sixth child accepts it when he sees it, and he gets married at the age of eighteen, which sounds much more normal.
~~
In the evening, when Zhu Zhen and his mother had dinner, he told her that he was going to Jiangxi.
Concubine Hu Xian didn't care: "Go, go, anyway, my mother is used to it." ”
"The kind of private interview with the microservice." The sixth added.
"That's not going to work!" Concubine Hu Xian stopped doing it: "What happened that year was not painful enough, the emperor still wants you to have another meal." Jiangxi doesn't have your grandfather's family to save your life! ”
"No, no," the sixth hurriedly waved his hand and said, "This time, I'm going with an escort, at least one hundred and eighty people will follow, asking for food?" I'll never ask for food again in my life! ”
"Wouldn't that be dangerous? You won't be caught in the cult's den again, and there won't be thieves on the road to intercept you, right? Concubine Hu Xian asked.
Obviously, Feng Yang left a deep shadow on her that time, so much so that she still had lingering palpitations many years later.
"No, I mainly want to understand the people's feelings. In the past, the officials have cleaned up the place, what else can you see? The sixth said patiently: "The cults have all been eradicated, and the nests of cults do not exist." As for the gangsters, this king's subordinates are not vegetarians, so it would be good not to rob them. ”
"Okay then......" Concubine Hu Xian persuaded her, and finally relented: "But you must let your two uncles follow, they have rich experience in the rivers and lakes, and it is useless to rely on your cousin alone." ”
"Okay." Zhu Zhen agreed: "But you have to promise me, don't drink, uh...... Drink less alcohol. ”
"Don't worry, my mother's self-control is notoriously strong." Concubine Hu Xian agreed: "Drink a little in the morning to wake up, and only drink a little appetizer at noon; Drink a little more at night to get a good night's sleep. ”
"Also, my whereabouts are to be kept secret. Catch up with Ming'er, my honor guard will go to Chongming, and you will bite me to death, I am going to inspect the preparation of the water master. The sixth instructed again.
"You don't have to worry about this, can my mother not even understand this little thing? The most important thing in a private interview is confidentiality! Concubine Hu Xian said very professionally.
~~
At night, when he returned to the East Fifth Institute, which was jokingly called the 'Animal Institute' by the palace people, Zhu Zhen carefully considered the candidate who would go to Jiangxi with him, and asked Wang's mother to go to Chongming with him this time to help him lay a good cover.
Although Wang's mother was very worried, her Highness's words could not be ignored, so she had to agree with tears in her eyes.
Then Zhu Zhen called the eunuchs who were in charge of serving his pets, told them that he was going out for a while, and ordered them to take care of his treasures.
In fact, he really wanted to take a Tibetan fox on the road, this little thing looks too decompressed. Just by looking at it, the brain stops thinking and gains precious peace.
However, in order to avoid adapting to the soil and water, it is better to change places for animals less, and the sixth child still understands this reason. So it's good to leave it in the palace.
~~
The next day, the sixth came to the Sincerity Bofu to say goodbye.
He first went to the mourning hall to see Liu Li, who was getting thinner and thinner, but he couldn't find any words to comfort her, and he couldn't tell her what he was going to do, so he could only accompany her silently for a while, and then went to see the master in the back.
The bedroom was filled with the smell of decoction that had not been seen for a long time. After that day, Liu Ji couldn't go down to the ground again, and people looked haggard. The spirit that has been cultivated so easily in the past two years is disappearing visibly with the naked eye......
Zhu Zhen walked in and called "Master".
After a while, Liu Ji opened his eyes and asked slowly, "What did the emperor say?" ”
"The old man of my family sent Shen Liben as a messenger to thoroughly investigate the cause of my senior brother's death." When Zhu Zhen said this, a look of disappointment appeared on Liu Ji's face, until he continued:
"Let me also go to Jiangxi, but Weifu will make a private visit to see what kind of drama they will sing."
"That's ......" Liu Bowen sighed slowly: "The emperor is right to be cautious, it is a matter of the Yellow Book, and there is no room for any difference." ”
"I'm leaving tomorrow." Zhu Zhen said in a low voice: "What else does the master command?" ”
"......" Liu Bowen was silent for a moment and said: "I have a feeling that Liu Lian's death is the prelude to a cruel killing. Some bottom lines cannot be broken, otherwise it will be a situation where the fish is dead and the net is broken. Therefore you must not be careless, for the enemies of your father and son will be unprecedentedly powerful. ”
"How powerful can it be? Is it stronger than the big families in Suzhou? Zhu Zhen asked.
"Of course." Liu Bowen bowed his head slightly and said, "This time your enemy is the squire officials of the whole world...... In your words, the entire ruling class of the Ming Dynasty. So, your father and son seem to be powerful, but in fact they are isolated. But since your father is determined to declare war on them, you can only go out and fight them. ”
"What about Master?" Zhu Zhen asked softly, "Which side are you on?" ”
"Originally, I was going to stay out of it." Liu Bowen's dim eyes suddenly shot out and said: "But since they killed my son, then I can only give up this old life and fight with them!" ”
Seeing him like this, Zhu Zhen was also relieved, knowing that the master should be able to wait until he came back......
