Chapter 248: Zhu Biao returns to Beijing
Half an hour later.
Pu Sanji, Li Wang and others dragged a group of officials and gentry who were paralyzed and their eyes were straight, and walked in from outside the hall.
At the same time, he was holding a thick stack of confessions in his hand.
"His Royal Highness the Prince of Qiqi, His Royal Highness the King of Yan, these thieves have all been recruited!"
Zhu Biao and Zhu Di took the confession and glanced at it casually, and the two of them were immediately furious.
"What a group of thieves, because of a mere Goryeo merchant fleet, they want to calculate us like this, and they do such evil things, they deserve to be wiped out, and they will be cut by a thousand cuts!"
Zhu Biao looked at the familiar names on the confession in his hand with a gloomy face, and asked slowly: "Pu Sanji, what they said is true?" ”
Pu Sanji hurriedly replied: "Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, according to Weichen's interrogation, they definitely don't dare to lie.
However, they said that the news of Beiping had already reached the Jingshi, so at this moment, the Jingshi must have also made trouble......"
"We got it!"
Zhu Biao looked at Zhu Di on the side, "Fourth, I want to take these thieves back to Beijing!" ”
"Big brother, I'm going to rip these thieves!"
Zhu Di was a little unwilling, he really wanted to put these people at Zhangjiawan Wharf, and then cut these thieves in front of those old farmers and those merchants at Zhangjiawan Wharf!
The crowd on the ground panicked.
"Fourth, don't worry, these thieves not only poisoned the people, but also framed the Prince of Daming and deceived the Prince of Daming.
This kind of heinous crime, even if you go to Jingshi, it will not be much better! ”
Zhu Biao said in a deep voice: "Moreover, there are still some thieves in Jingshi who have not been caught!" ”
Zhu Di was very simple, "In this way, everyone will be handed over to the eldest brother!" ”
"Hmm!"
Zhu Biao nodded slightly, "I'll leave in the afternoon!" ”
"In such a hurry?"
Zhu Di was stunned.
"If it's too late, maybe those thieves will be able to toss something in the Jingshi!"
Zhu Biao looked helpless.
If it were someone else on this list, he wouldn't be in such a hurry.
Although he was benevolent, he didn't want his father to kill too many Ming officials.
But it's not like he doesn't kill people.
Especially this kind of thief, for the sake of some financial interests, is to use cruel means to kill innocent people, frame his younger brother, and deceive him, and he must not be kept.
It's just that there are a few people on this list who surprised him very much.
"Ma He, quickly tell the kitchen to cook."
"Yes, Your Highness!"
"Li Wang, quickly bring people, and start loading the good rice and peppers prepared for the prince."
"Yes, Your Highness!"
"In addition, prepare another 100,000 taels of silver for the prince......"
……
Afternoon.
Zhu Di, Guo An and others sent Zhu Biao and others to Zhangjiawan Wharf again.
waited until Zhu Biao and the others were far away, and Zhu Di scolded angrily.
"Blue jade dog thief, if he weren't the eldest brother's wife's uncle, we would definitely go to Jingshi with the eldest brother and cut the dog thief!"
Guo An looked calm.
"Your Highness needs not be angry."
"Huh?"
Zhu Di glanced at Guo An with some surprise and asked: "In the past, Guo Qing couldn't see the gentry and powerful innocently bullying and poisoning the people.
Why aren't you angry at all today? Could it be that he knew that his father took a fancy to the dog thief, and the prince would also try his best to protect the dog thief, so he coaxed it? ”
Guo An said in a low voice: "Your Highness, if the heavens want it to perish, you must first make it crazy!" ”
"Huh?"
Zhu Di's eyes lit up, "What did Guo Qing hear?" ”
Guo An said slowly: "Your Highness, Weichen has heard that since the return of the Northern Expedition, he is now more and more arrogant, and often has no king's law!"
He also secretly hid the captured slaves and used his power to occupy a large amount of land.
Even, he also received a large number of righteous sons, who were used in the army or hidden in the house.
Even if there were imperial historians who went to investigate his seizure of people's land, they also ordered people to drive those imperial historians away.
Now, they are uniting with those merchants and gentry, wanting to seize His Royal Highness's Zhangjiawan Wharf and the Goryeo fleet, and they do not hesitate to deceive the king! ”
"What a big bold!"
Zhu Di couldn't help but be angry, so he asked: "Who did Guo Qing listen to about these things?" ”
Guo An chuckled and said, "Your Highness, in Daming, the most well-informed people are still those businessmen who go south and north. ”
"In this way, in this way, my father will definitely not spare that dog thief this time!"
Zhu Di's face couldn't help but show a hint of joy.
Just as Lan Yu dislikes him, Zhu Di also inexplicably dislikes Lan Yu.
It's just that what Zhu Di can't accept is that this time Guo An still shook his head slowly.
"Your Highness, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has gone back, and Lan Yu will not have a major incident, at most he will be punished by His Majesty."
"How is this possible?" Zhu Di didn't believe it.
Guo An reminded, "Your Highness has not forgotten the big mistake that he made when he returned from the Northern Expedition? ”
Zhu Di said angrily, "Could it be that according to what Guo Qing said, let's just look at it like this, and the dog thief has been so arrogant?" ”
Guo An continued to say lightly: "Wei Chen thinks that he should just look at it, how miserable the blue jade will die in the end!" ”
This time, Guo An was really angry with the blue jade.
He has always been a person who has nothing to do with himself.
Even if Lan Yu came back from the Northern Expedition, bullied the concubine of the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty, and raised troops to break through Xifeng Pass, he was just saying a word of arrogance in his heart.
Now, Lan Yu actually started to fight the idea of Beiping Mansion, which was unbearable.
However, now that Zhu Biao is still alive, Lao Zhu is also considered to be in his heyday, unless Zhu Di leads his troops to kill Lan Yu directly, otherwise Lao Zhu will not kill Lan Yu at all.
This stuffy breath can only be swallowed temporarily.
Zhu Di asked curiously: "Guo Qing thinks that Lan Yu won't live long?" ”
Guo An replied: "Your Highness, throughout history, all arrogant and domineering people often have a short life!" ”
Zhu Di nodded in agreement, "We hope that my father can cut that guy!" ”
Guo An bowed his head slightly and did not continue to speak.
……
Wait until Zhu Di and Guo An return to the palace of King Yan.
Nie Zishi, the political envoy, and Lu Xiang, the envoy of the inspection, hurriedly ran over and asked Zhu Di for their guilt.
After hearing that the crown prince Zhu Biao left in a hurry without informing them, Nie Zishi and Lu Xiang felt that something was wrong.
Subsequently, a check.
The two of them immediately panicked, and there were so many officials under them who didn't want to get involved in yesterday's incident.
After scolding angrily, the two hurriedly ran to wait outside the Yan Palace.
As for the two chief officials of Beiping Mansion, Zhu Di only lightly reprimanded a few words.
After Nie Zishi and Lu Xiang went back, they hurriedly began to check the officials in Beiping Mansion.
As for Guo An and Zhu Di, they began to be busy with the autumn harvest of Yanwangfu.
At the same time, I paid attention to the affairs of Jingshi.
……
The other side.
Zhu Biao directly ordered the fleet to rush day and night to Beijing.
Because, according to his understanding of Lan Yu, after receiving the news from Beiping Mansion, Lan Yu will definitely not be able to help it.
Just as Zhu Biao thought.
After receiving the news from Peiping Province.
Lan Yu was immediately overjoyed, and directly played at the court meeting, in order to build Zhangjiawan Wharf, how King Yan was arrogant and domineering in Beiping Mansion, and how to kill the people.
It seems that in response to Lan Yu, it is not appropriate for Lao Zhu to ask questions, and several imperial historians also jumped out and impeached Zhu Di, the king of Yan.
Immediately afterwards, how Zhu Di, the king of Yan, brutalized innocent people in Beiping Mansion, and how he plundered the people's fields, grain, and goods, so as to trade with Goryeo to make money and make profits, was spread in Yingtian City.
Although Lao Zhu keenly felt that something was wrong, let Jinyiwei probe at the same time.
For the content of those rumors in Ying Tiancheng, he also has some faith.
Similarly, many military generals and nobles in Yingtian City also faintly believed those rumors.
That's right!
Before Zhu Di became a vassal, he was a lawless prince in Yingtian City.
The King of Qin and the King of Jin, in Xi'an and Taiyuan, are all bad deeds, and Zhu Di, the king of Yan, should not be similar!
Thereupon.
A day later.
The civil officials of the Manchu Dynasty began to forcibly punish Zhu Di, the king of Yan, at the court meeting.
And those generals, only a few people, came out to speak for Zhu Di, the king of Yan. However, all of them lack confidence.
The most important thing is that Lan Yu, the Duke of Liangguo, has been asking for punishment of Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and even wants to take away the fleet of Zhu Di, the king of Yan, who traded with Goryeo.
Let the generals have to think carefully about whether this matter was instructed by the prince.
"King Yan has always been virtuous, and such rumors suddenly appeared, which has to make people suspicious, about the matter of King Yan Zhu Di, wait until Jinyiwei investigates clearly!"
In the end, it was Lao Zhu who sat on the dragon chair with a dark face, suppressing this argument of crusading against Zhu Di, the king of Yan.
However, Lan Yu and those imperial histories, as well as a few officials, were full of confidence.
I'm afraid that after Jinyiwei's investigation is clear, Yanwang Zhu Di will be even more speechless!
It's just that just as the officials were secretly happy, a figure hurriedly walked in from outside.
Under the light of the early sun, the whole person was pitch black, and the face could not be seen clearly.
"Who dares to break into our Ming Dynasty meeting?"
Lao Zhu, who was sitting on the dragon chair, said angrily directly.
Below, all the civil and military officials were also stunned, and hurriedly turned their heads to look back.
When they saw the face clearly, the officials were all shocked, and hurriedly bowed their heads and bent down, and retreated to both sides.
"Huh?"
Lao Zhu on the dragon chair looked even more displeased.
However, the figure soon walked in.
"Sons see their father, father Emperor Sheng'an!"
"Biao'er?"
After seeing the face of the figure below, Lao Zhu's face was suddenly full of joy, and he even stood up directly from the dragon chair and walked down quickly.
looked Zhu Biao up and down, and said with concern on his face: "Biao'er, you have only been to Beiping Mansion for a few days, why did you come back so soon?" ”
Zhu Biao hurriedly said: "Father, the son rushed back day and night this time...... It's because of the fourth thing, huh, huh, huh......"
"Fourth?"
The smile on Lao Zhu's face was instantly put away.
"But it's because of what that bastard caused in Beiping Mansion?"
Below, hundreds of civil and military officials were all staring at Zhu Biao.
Zhu Biao hurried back in such a hurry, which made them even more convinced that Zhu Di, the king of Yan, was exploiting and mutilating the people in Beiping Mansion.
Especially Lan Yu, as well as those imperial histories, are even more looking forward to it.
This time, they were determined to make the king of Nayan lose his authority to trade with Goryeo.
After Zhu Biao slowly breathed his breath, he reported: "Father, someone in Jingshi joined forces with those gentry and businessmen to frame the fourth child in Beiping Mansion...... The son was worried that his father would listen to the slander of those people, so he rushed back and explained the truth of the matter to his father! ”
"Someone framed the fourth?"
Lao Zhu's eyes narrowed suddenly, and his whole body exuded a cold murderous aura.
Lan Yu and the few officials such as the Imperial History suddenly froze in place.
As for some officials who don't know the inside story, they are even more puzzled.
Could it be that this matter was not instructed by the crown prince?
Lao Zhu asked coldly: "Biao'er, which thieves dare to frame the fourth child?" ”
