Ying Tianfu.

Imperial Palace, inside the Fengtian Temple.

An old man in a dragon robe sat on a dragon chair, and the table in front of him was full of thick music.

For so many movements, the old man did not have the slightest impatience on his face, and replied one by one.

The only difference is that after opening the different movements, the old man will sometimes frown at the content of the music, sometimes his eyes will be cold, and the old eunuch waiting on the side will bow his head tightly and stiffen.

"Huh?"

Suddenly, the old man's face sank again, he stopped the imperial pen in his hand, and looked at it seriously.

The brow gradually furrowed.

Then, I opened the next book again, took a cursory look at it, and then looked at the next book again.

After reading six books in a row, the old man said in a deep voice: "Come on, go and find Jiang Xuan!" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

A little eunuch in the hall answered, and then took small steps and trotted out quickly.

This old man is none other than Zhu Yuanzhang, the Ming Emperor whom Guo An feared most in Wanping Zhixian County.

After a while, Jiang Xuan, who was dressed in a flying fish suit, hurriedly walked in from outside the hall and knelt directly in front of Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Minister Jiang Zhen see Your Majesty!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said expressionlessly: "Get up and talk back!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Hearing this, Jiang Xuan, who came in a hurry, was relieved and hurriedly got up.

Zhu Yuanzhang asked: "During this period of time, have you paid attention to the affairs of Beiping Mansion?" ”

Jiang Yu hurriedly replied: "Back to Your Majesty, every few days, there will be news from the Jinyi Guard of Beiping Mansion." Dare to ask Your Majesty, but what happened to Beiping Mansion? ”

"Humph!"

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted lightly, "The inspection of the imperial history and the supervision department of Beiping Mansion are all playing, and King Yan has opened a barbecue shop, and its barbecue price is very expensive, and even the wine in its shop is twice as high as outside, and it is specially sold to those merchants."

And those merchants were afraid of the power of King Yan, and they didn't dare not stop eating, and now the people call King Yan Prince Shangjia.

You Jinyiwei supervises the whole country, we want to know, is this true or false?

A while ago, King Yan sent people to buy a large number of poultry and livestock in Shanxi and Shandong, so that the prices of chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep in these two places rose a lot overnight, causing officials in the two places to file complaints, and now we have a prince of merchant, what a ...... is really an obstacle."

Hearing this, Jiang Zhen subconsciously glanced at Zhu Yuanzhang's expression, and hurriedly reported: "Your Majesty, this matter is also reported by the Jinyi Wei of Beiping Mansion." However, what the minister heard was the barbecue shop opened by His Royal Highness King Yan, which was grilled with special spices to make vegetables, and the taste was extremely fragrant, so the price would be more expensive.

That's why those businessmen will go to the court, and His Royal Highness has no intention of persecution.

As for the price of wine, it is more than twice as high as similar wine outside, but these are clearly marked prices, and His Royal Highness King Yan has no intention of forcing it.

But when those businessmen enter to eat vegetables, they can't help but ask for a few catties of wine, so His Royal Highness King Yan did make a lot of money in this barbecue shop.

And the name of Prince Shangjia of His Royal Highness King Yan, please atone for your sins, and when his subordinates found out, the name of His Royal Highness King Yan had already spread in Beiping Mansion. ”

"Humph!"

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression was cold.

"Fourth, whose way is this in the way?"

"Your Majesty forgives the sin, and Weichen will send more people to Beiping Mansion when he goes back, and he must find out who is behind the scenes!" Jiang Zhen shuddered and hurriedly said.

"Check? How to check? ”

Zhu Yuanzhang hated and said, "There are so many people in Beiping Mansion, and these people like to listen to these ethereal noble news the most.

As long as anyone casually says a word about Prince Shangjia on the street, the surrounding people will spontaneously spread it, and there is no trace at all, so investigate? ”

Jiang Zhen lowered his head tightly and didn't dare to reply.

"What we're curious about is that the fourth child is just a shop, even if he can make money, who can stand in the way?"

Saying that, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Jiang Zhen again: "In the recital, we also saw someone participating in the performance of Guo An, the magistrate of Wanping County, Beiping Prefecture.

The things that the fourth child has been tossing in Beiping Mansion in the past few months have all been picked up by this thief official, do you know about this? ”

Jiang Xuan hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, Weichen knows this person. ”

"Guo An is a former scholar of the Zhaowenguan University of the Yuan Dynasty and the great-great-grandson of Guo Shoujing, a member of the Taishi Academy.

Last year was ......"

"Guo Taishi's descendants?"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked surprised.

"Back to Your Majesty, exactly, and among the descendants of Guo Taishi, he is the descendant who specially stayed in the old mansion of Beiping Mansion!"

Jiang Zhen said.

Although Guo An tried his best to hide himself and prevent his news from appearing next to Lao Zhu's ears.

However, he underestimated Lao Zhu's attention to Zhu Di and these vassal kings, and also underestimated the importance that these brocade guards attached to each vassal king.

The moment he was pushed by Zhu Laosi to the magistrate of Wanping County, he entered the eyes of Jinyiwei of Beiping Mansion.

Last year, Guo Shou was recommended by Nie Zishi, the political envoy of Beiping Prefecture, as the lord of Wanping County......

After Guo Huan's case in March this year, the magistrate of Wanping County and the county Cheng were both killed.

And Guo An somehow entered the eyes of His Royal Highness King Yan, and was recommended by His Royal Highness King Yan as the magistrate of Wanping County.

Subsequently, His Royal Highness King Yan wanted to reclaim wasteland in various counties, and Guo An's son took the lead in responding, first going to the countryside in person and inspecting all the townships under the rule of Wanping County one by one.

And then ......"

With Jiang Xuan's words, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes gradually lit up.

"How can this kind of official be a smug and flattering person? In our opinion, Guo An's son still inherited some of Guo Taishi's talents? ”

"Your Majesty is wise!"

"So, why do these officials who inspect the imperial history and Beiping Mansion impeach Guo An like this?"

As he spoke, Zhu Yuanzhang's face turned cold again.

"Back to Your Majesty, it should be that Guo An has a relatively out-of-the-box personality, and his style is different from that of ordinary officials, so he was rejected by these officials!"

Jiang Zhen replied cautiously.

"Humph!"

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly, "Let's go and check, and check the details of these officials." I don't believe it, these officials will impeach Guo An and the fourth child for no reason, there must be some shady deed! ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Jiang Zhen answered, and hurriedly retreated.

At the same time.

A young man in a blue dragon robe, carrying a small food box in his hand, walked in directly from outside the hall without any eunuchs and eunuchs.

All the eunuchs and eunuchs in the palace quietly saluted him.

Seeing the visitor, Jiang Zhen hurriedly saluted respectfully with a face, and then slowly retired.

"Daddy, what good things do you think the child has brought you?"

When he came to the hall, the young man directly handed the food box in his hand to the old eunuch on the side, and bowed to Zhu Yuanzhang who was looking down at Zhu Yuanzhang with a smile on his face.

"Huh? Biao'er! ”

Hearing the voice, Zhu Yuanzhang directly bent his eyebrows and grinned, picked up a book of music from the table with a smile on his face, and handed it to the visitor.

"Dad, what's going on?" Zhu Biao was a little puzzled.

Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile on his face: "The fourth bastard doesn't know where it is, blocking the way of some officials and gentry, and as a result, because he opened a barbecue shop, he was rumored to be the Prince of Shangjia......

Hahaha, Prince Shangjia, the fourth child is embarrassed this time! ”
