Early morning.

When the talented man was still sleeping with a beautiful lady in his arms, Comrade Lao Yan had already received a summons from His Majesty.

As soon as he arrived at the palace, Yang Guozhong quickly greeted him.

He smiled on his face.

"Yan Xiang, I heard about it, I knelt all night yesterday, and it is said that I will still be kneeling outside the imperial study."

He looked gloating, his eyes narrowed on his fat face.

Yan Zhenlin smiled, "The prince is good!" Kneeling for a night will probably be fine. ”

Yang Guozhong's face froze.

Suddenly, I felt that there was nothing to be happy about.

The two of them went all the way to the imperial study.

Really!

Zhu Kun and Zhu Tai were still kneeling at the door, their faces pale and trembling.

Although there is nothing to be happy about, seeing the two of them like this, Yang Guozhong still can't help but feel refreshed in his heart.

Entering the imperial study, he was even more refreshed, because Qin Zhengqing and Fan Renli had already arrived, and they didn't dare to come out when they knelt there.

"I've seen Your Majesty!"

Zhu Tianzheng's face was gloomy at this time, he glanced at the two of them, and said, "Let those two losers get in." ”

After a long time, Zhu Kun and Zhu Taicai limped in.

After all, after kneeling all night, most of the legs did not obey the call at all, and most of them could not stand up if it were not for the support of the eunuchs.

"Father, son-in-law is guilty."

Zhu Kun was the first to speak and directly pleaded guilty.

Zhu Tianzheng had a cold face, "Guilty? Tell me what's wrong with you? ”

"Son, son...... The mistake was misestimating the situation, not knowing enough about the businessmen, and spreading the stall too big. Zhu Kun stammered.

"Wrong!"

Zhu Tianzheng said, "You guys are wrong because you don't have self-knowledge, how many catties and taels do you have and no points?" ”

"Erchen knows his mistake!"

Zhu Kun didn't dare to refute, so he had to admit his mistake obediently.

Zhu Tianzheng looked at Zhu Tai again, "What about you?" ”

Zhu Tai was obviously a little unwilling, but in the face of Zhu Tianzheng, he didn't seem to dare to be too presumptuous, and he squeaked and whined for a while, not knowing what to say.

"What? Still not convinced? ”

Zhu Tai gritted his teeth and said: "Back to my father, I am not convinced, it is obvious that someone is behind this matter, deliberately colluding with businessmen, and passively sabotaging work, otherwise Ezhou New City will never be like this." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Yan Zhenlin and Yang Guozhong, intentionally or unintentionally, and the meaning was obvious.

How could Yang Guozhong not hear it.

Some couldn't help it.

But before he could speak, Zhu Tianzheng had already scolded, "Idiot, who are you trying to say?" Fourth? Or my prime minister and household? I have been watching this matter from beginning to end, there is no stumbling block for you, the household department has never hesitated to allocate funds, everything is your own incompetence. ”

"But you're still unrepentant."

"At least the second child knows it's wrong, what about you? You're just a complete piece of shit. ”

"Go back to me immediately, think about it behind closed doors for a year, reduce everything by eighty, and keep it for you to pay off your debts."

“……

"Father's ......"

Hearing this, Zhu Tai was obviously anxious, and after thinking about it behind closed doors for a year, his spending was reduced by eighty percent, then his mansion could not be maintained, and he still owed a lot of debts.

"Erchen is incompetent, but the current environment is like this, it is the same for anyone, and the fourth child is no exception."

"Erchen made a mistake in not seeing the opportunity, and was robbed of the opportunity by the fourth child, and Erchen was not convinced."

Yang Guozhong's teeth are itching, he can see it, this guy is determined to talk about this, and in this situation, no one can solve the mess in Ezhou.

And if no one can solve it, it means that it is not that he is incompetent, and that the environment is true.

Even if he is wrong, it is also due to the general environment.

Yang Guozhong was a little skeptical, whether this guy deliberately broke the jar and broke it, knowing that Ezhou couldn't succeed, he simply messed it up so that no one could take over.

Boy!

"How can this be true? At this point, he did not know how to repent. ”

Zhu Tianzheng was furious, "Come on, drag this rebel out and beat the twenty boards." ”

"Father, Father, Emperor......"

Zhu Tai was obviously panicked, but unfortunately to no avail.

Several Ouchi guards had already carried him out, and then there was a heart-rending howl.

Zhu Kun's face was pale, and cold sweat was dripping on his forehead.

The corners of Yang Guozhong's eyes were also twitching, but he was so happy in his heart that he subconsciously glanced at Yan Zhenlin and secretly gave the other party a thumbs up.

At the beginning, he also wanted to use the authority of the household department to deliberately card the new city.

This has to be a loss of cards, otherwise these two losers will be even more talkative.

Worthy of an old fox.

In the imperial study, the atmosphere was very depressing, and everyone didn't even have an atmosphere, especially Zhu Kun.

Fortunately, Zhu Tianzheng didn't reprimand again, maybe he was tired, but his eyes were a little cold, and he glanced at Qin Zhengqing and Fan Renli.

The faces of the two were as white as paper.

Although the implementation of Ezhou New City was Zhu Kun and Zhu Tai, the two of them made suggestions, and naturally they could not escape the blame.

Qin Zhengqing also chimed in: "Please Your Majesty to condemn the crime!" ”

Zhu Tianzheng snorted, "Two scholars, look at the good things you have done." ”

Saying that, he paused and said: "You sin first, the top priority is how to solve the matter of Ezhou New Town, let's talk about it!" What do you guys think? ”

"Yan Xiang, Hubu, you can also talk about it!"

This mess can't fall on the nephew, the main thing is that the money is all spent.

Yang Guozhong took the lead and said: "Your Majesty, the two princes lack experience, but the two Shangshu adults are experienced and know the most about Ezhou New Town, so there must be a way." ”

Qin Zhengqing's teeth itched, and he almost didn't scold, if Lao Tzu had a way, he could have today?

Fan Renli said: "Your Majesty, the minister is incompetent, the current situation in Ezhou, I am afraid that only the four highnesses can come forward to solve it, if the four highnesses are willing to come forward, the minister is willing to saddle the horse and make up for this mistake." ”

Yang Guozhong said: "Master Fan, you are pushing the Fourth Highness into the fire kang, this mess in Ezhou was made by yourself, and it should be solved by yourself." ”

Fan Renli said: "This official is not shirking responsibility, Ezhou is our responsibility, and the minister will admit it at any time." ”

"The top priority is to solve the problem, and in the whole world, I am afraid that only the Fourth Highness can solve the problem of Ezhou."

Although this is pushing his nephew like a fire kang, Yang Guozhong is quite comfortable listening to it.

I didn't know what to say for a while.

Zhu Tianzheng also frowned at this time.

As Yang Guozhong said, this is a fire kang, and pushing the fourth child forward at this time is somewhat inauthentic.

But what Fan Renli said is also good, except for the fourth child, it is even more impossible for other people.

For a while, Zhu Tianzheng was also in a dilemma.

Subconsciously looked at Yan Zhenlin and asked, "What does Yan Xiang think?" ”

Yan Zhenlin paused and said: "Back to Your Majesty, Ezhou is now a bottomless abyss, if the Fourth Highness comes forward, everyone will be happy if it is solved, but what if it is not solved?" ”

Zhu Tianzheng frowned, this was also what he was most worried about.

Of course, it's good for the fourth child to come forward to solve it, but if it is not solved, the damage will be too great, and several princes have not solved it in turn, what will the people think?

The prestige of the royal family is gone.

At this moment, Zhu Tianzheng was also in trouble.
