Following.

Guo An went straight to the palace.

Regarding Guo An's audience, Zhu Di was also curious.

"In the past few days, how did Guo Qing come so diligently?"

Guo An said: "Your Majesty, Weichen is here for the affairs of the Huang family!" ”

Zhu Di frowned slightly, "Huang family? …… Which family is a thief of the descendants of the Pu family? ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Guo An nodded hurriedly.

Zhu Di asked: "Isn't the matter of the Huang family already over, what else does Guo Qing have to do?" ”

Guo An replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, after Weichen went back, after thinking about it, I always felt that something was wrong with the Huang family.

It's just that Wei Chen is not good at these schemes, while Master Dao Yan is good at these. So I went to find Master Daoyan......"

"Dao Yan Mage?"

Zhu Di was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "Since we ascended the throne, we have rarely had the opportunity to talk about the Tao with Master Daoyan, but we shouldn't!"

I don't know how Master Yan is doing? ”

Guo An replied: "Back to Your Majesty, Master Daoyan is all right!" ”

"That's good!"

Zhu Di bowed slightly.

Guo An said again: "Your Majesty, after Master Daoyan heard this, he also bluntly said that the Huang family is too clean!" ”

"Too clean?"

Zhu Di was stunned, "The Huang family changed its name and surname, it should be cautious and clean!" ”

Guo An said: "Your Majesty Shengming, since this is the case, the Huang family should hide honestly, and when the sea opens, his family can escape overseas!"

But now, the Huang family is impatient to come up, and they are caught by His Majesty! ”

“……”

Zhu Di's expression narrowed slightly, and after a while, he said to Yishu on the side: "Send a secret edict to Erhu, and let him seriously interrogate the Huang family for us again, whether it is dead or alive!" ”

"Slave obeys!" Yisha hurriedly responded.

"In addition, let him secretly investigate and see who the Huang family often has a close relationship with!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Then, he hurriedly retreated.

Zhu Di said again: "Guo Qing rest assured, if someone is really hiding behind the Huang family, we will definitely find him out!" ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Guo An said casually.

……

After Guo An came out of the palace, he could still be two days away, and the kings of Shu, Xiang, and Chu, who were closer to Beijing, had already come to Beijing.

And the matter of the Huang family, there is still no movement.

Guo An is not in a hurry.

He should have reminded him, and if Jinyiwei couldn't find out, he didn't have no tricks.

Left and right are just some thieves hiding behind.

It was a few days later.

King of Qin, King of Zhou, King of Lu, King of Qi...... and other vassal kings, they also began to come to Beijing one after another.

The officials of the entire Beijing Division began to act cautiously again.

Guo An didn't dare to go out at will.

More than ten Ming vassal kings gathered in Beijing, in case of bad luck and bumped into the hands of a vassal king, he, the Marquis of Dinghai, still has to serve respectfully, why bother?

I heard that in the Jingshi, there were already several officials who bumped into the eyes of those vassal kings, and then waited carefully for a long time.

waited until the acting king Zhu Gui entered the Beijing Division.

The atmosphere of the entire Jingshi suddenly changed.

Inside the Fengtian Temple.

Acting King Zhu Gui looked at Zhu Di above with a sneer, "Brother Huang, you are angry!" ”

On the side, the kings of Shu, Xiang, Chu, Qin, Zhou and other vassal kings stood honestly with their eyes and nose and heart.

They have also heard that when the imperial examination was alive, this imperial brother promised that he would never cut the feudal domain, but the condition was to reduce the income of their feudal kings.

In addition, they also have to be rated and assessed by each feudal palace.

However, now that there is acting king Zhu Gui withstanding His Majesty's anger, they are much more relaxed.

"Humph!"

Above, Zhu Di's face was gloomy.

"Old Thirteen, you have done a lot of evil things in the domain, which is absurd, and even often abuses the ordinary soldiers and civilians in the domain, and even builds civil fortifications, labors and money......

Do you still remember the second brother King Qinchu? Do you really think that those people will let you be humiliated in every way? ”

Hearing this, Zhu Gui's face froze.

The matter of King Qin is the biggest pain in the hearts of all the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty!

"Your Majesty, rest assured, my brother never bullies those officials, nor does he bully those powerful people!"

Acting King Zhu Gui grinned directly, "Big brother, we will definitely be optimistic about those slaves in the house, if a traitor appears, we will definitely kill him in time!" ”

"You bastard!"

Zhu Di was furious and scolded angrily: "If the imperial examination knows, you bastard, you have heavy troops in Datong, but you will only bully the weak and fear the hard, and insult ordinary soldiers and civilians, you will definitely be summoned to Beijing and beaten you severely!" ”

Zhu Gui said with a face full of grievances: "Your Majesty, the younger brother also wants to go out to war to conquer those ...... by the Mongol Tatars in the desert."

"Really?"

Zhu Di's expression slowed slightly, stared at Zhu Gui and asked.

Zhu Gui: "......"

"Your Majesty wants to order your brother to go on the expedition?"

"If you want to go on the expedition, we can't stop you!"

Zhu Di nodded slowly, "But don't worry, you have never led the army to fight alone, we can't let you take the Daming children to die, we will arrange an experienced general for you!" ”

“……”

Zhu Gui wanted to cry a little without tears.

And the rest of the kings on the side were watching the excitement.

Their domains are all in the hinterland of the Ming Dynasty, and they will not have the opportunity to conquer the Mongols at all.

As for Zhu Gui's tyrannical behavior, they didn't have much opinion.

An attendant slowly walked into the main hall and reported to Zhu Diyu: "Your Majesty, King Ning, King Yan, King Qin, King Jin and other kings have also entered the Beijing Division!" ”

"Very good!"

Zhu Di's face was happy, and he did not reprimand Zhu Gui again.

"Now that all the kings have come to Jingshi, we will be in the palace tomorrow and have a banquet for all brothers!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The king of Shu, the king of Lu and other vassal kings hurriedly saluted.

As for the acting king Zhu Gui, he was also relieved.

Following.

Zhu Di invited the vassal kings to a banquet, and no foreign ministers participated.

Except for the King of Qin, the King of Jin, the King of Yan, and the King of Lu, the rest of the vassal kings were all Zhu Di brothers.

The brothers have not been reunited for many years, and the atmosphere at the banquet is very lively.

And Zhu Di is also in a good mood, glass after glass of wine, and all kinds of delicacies, one after another.

When everyone had eaten almost, Zhu Di slowly put down the chopsticks in his hand.

Seeing this, all the vassal kings below suddenly realized something and gradually quieted down.

Zhu Di said: "You should also know that when the imperial examination was alive, he issued an edict to reduce the affairs of the clan!" ”

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly fell silent.

After a while, Zhu Hu, the king of Zhou, as the chief of the kings, replied with a sad face: "Back to Your Majesty, the ministers and others all remember this!"

It's just that there are many slaves to be raised in the palace of the royal brothers, courtiers and other vassal kings, and now the Yulu is a little insufficient, if the Yulu is cut again, the courtiers and others will inevitably live in poverty......"

Suddenly, all the vassal kings also hurriedly complained.

"Your Majesty, the courtiers and others are outside, and their lives are really poor!"

"The courtiers beg Your Majesty to have mercy on the courtiers and other clansmen......"

However, before the vassal kings could speak for a while, their voices slowly quieted down again.

Zhu Di's expression was a little wrong.

"How little are you waiting for?"

Zhu Di sneered, "Don't you think that we haven't been defeated?" ”

"Hmph, according to the money that is now given to you, you can feed hundreds of slaves, and you will live a very luxurious life every day......"

“……”

The vassal kings were silent one by one.

Only then did they remember that this majesty was also from King Yan and overthrew the crown prince Zhu Yunwen, and then he was promoted to the crown prince and then ascended the throne......

The corners of Zhu Di's mouth curled slightly, a group of bastard things, and they still wanted to join forces and deceive them.

Especially Zhu Gaoxu, a rebel......

Below, Zhu Gaoxu subconsciously shrunk his neck.

Zhu Di continued: "Do you know that we have formulated a year-end bonus for all officials in Daming?" ”

The vassal kings were stunned, and then looked at Zhu Di with anticipation.

"In the future, all the Ming clan will be distributed according to the amount set by the imperial examination, the prince will be 6,000 stones, the county king will be 1,500 stones, the general of Zhenguo will be ......1,000 stones, and the auxiliary generals, Fengguo generals, and Zhenguo lieutenants will be reduced by 200 stones."

"Your Majesty......"

"In addition, let's prepare a year-end bonus for all vassal kings, one million taels of silver, plus one million taels of treasure money!"

“……”

The vassal kings who originally wanted to get up and complain directly opened their mouths one by one and looked at Zhu Di with shocked faces.

They all sobered up a lot.

One million taels of silver, plus one million taels of treasure money!

How much does it cost?

"Your Majesty, is it really a year-end bonus of one million taels of silver, plus one million taels of treasure banknotes?"

Zhou Wang Zhu Hu asked with a face full of disbelief.

Similarly, all the vassal kings looked at Zhu Di with anticipation on their faces.

Although they are vassal kings, they sometimes accept the filial piety of some merchants, but after so many years, they are all poor and true!
