Chapter 164: Parting Words
"Your Highness, the thirteenth brother, you should also go and take a look!"
"The concubine heard...... Yesterday the wise king went! ”
In the house in the East Palace, Yuan Chun was tidying up Zhu Jingyuan's clothes, chattering constantly.
It stands to reason that this kind of work of serving people should be done by maids, but it is also one of the few opportunities to get close to the prince, and Yuan Chun can not easily miss it.
Zhu Jingyuan's face was expressionless, and he said slowly: "The thirteenth brother will be fine, besides, I have to watch the comments and answers in the past few days, and I have to analyze several major events in detail......
"After a few days to discuss the situation in the northwest, my father also asked me to write an opinion on pacifying the frontier, it is really difficult to squeeze out time!"
"I said sister, the prince has a lot of things, don't make trouble with him anymore!"
It was another side concubine Wang Yi who spoke, her background was lower than Yuan Chun, and her father was just a man.
Compared with Yuan Chun, Wang Yi is more liked by the prince, just because he knows how to flatter better, which makes Zhu Jingyuan feel like a man.
Of course, because Wang Yi was bent on inviting and flattering, she was not liked by the queen, so it was Yuan Chun who went to the palace to invite An Duo.
"Today...... I don't know how many people want to find the prince's mistakes, the most important thing for the prince at the moment is not to make mistakes, how can he care about other people's affairs! ”
Even if Zhu Jingyuan liked Wang Yi no matter how much he heard the other party speak like this, he also said with a straight face at this moment: "Yi'er, don't talk nonsense!" ”
"My thirteenth brother and I, the brotherhood is dissolved in the blood, how can it be said that it is someone else's business!"
"The concubine said the wrong thing, ask the prince for forgiveness!"
Wang Yi looks like a bird, as if he has been greatly wronged, and it is easy for Zhu Jingyuan to have a desire to protect.
Yuan Chun couldn't get used to Wang Yi's virtue the most, so she turned her head to the side at the moment, she was afraid that she couldn't help but vomit.
If the first crown princess was still alive, with Wang Yi's foxy appearance right now, I was afraid that she would have been dragged out and slapped in the mouth.
"Prince Qiqi, Mr. Gao has gone to the outer study!"
Originally, he wanted to appease Wang Yi, but when he heard this, Zhu Jingyuan immediately said: "Mr. Linggao has come to the front hall to watch the seat!" ”
"Yes!"
Compared with the outer study, the front hall is more formal, which is enough to highlight the courtesy of Gao Shuyan.
After the delivery of the past few days, Gao Shuyan and the others have officially separated from the East Palace and become the people of Xianyun and Yehe.
In order to no longer give people authority and no longer cause trouble to Zhu Jingyuan, the few people who were deposed have all left the capital one after another.
Gao Shuyan was the last to leave, and he would come to bid farewell to the prince before leaving, and he wouldn't even be able to enter the imperial city in two days.
When Zhu Jingyuan rushed to the front hall, he saw Gao Shuyan, who had already lost his official uniform, and looked like an ordinary rich man.
It wasn't until he got closer that he found that the old minister, who had been with him for twenty years, was now gray.
"Caomin Gao Shuyan, see His Royal Highness the Prince!" Gao Shu said and did a big gift.
Zhu Jingyuan hurriedly stepped forward, helped Gao Shuyan up, and said at the same time: "Sir, don't be polite!" ”
"His Royal Highness Prince Xie!"
After the two of them sat down, they only heard Zhu Jingyuan ask, "Mr. has packed all his bags?" ”
"Pack it up and leave tomorrow!"
Although he knew that this was inevitable, Zhu Jingyuan still felt sad when he heard Gao Shuyan say it himself.
seemed to resonate with his grief, Gao Shuyan's mood also became heavy, and the two of them were silent for a while.
"This is going to Shandong, the road is long, Mr. should take care!"
With the current transportation and medical conditions, long-distance travel is extremely risky, especially for an elderly person like Gao Shuyan.
"Lao Chen is not in a hurry to return to his hometown, he plans to go to Jinling with Wang Jinru to have a look, it is said that his family has planted more than ten acres of purple gold bamboo!"
Wang Jinru is also a subordinate official of the Prince's Mansion, and among the several people who were also dismissed, he came to resign to Zhu Jingyuan yesterday.
"Sir, this is ......"
Gao Shuyan smiled freely and replied, "Don't hide it from the prince...... Although he has been dismissed now, the minister does not have much to lose, he just feels that he is light without an official! ”
"After working hard for most of his life, the minister is walking on thin ice all the time, and he is already dying of old age, but he has not yet had time to see all this great rivers and mountains!"
"This time I was deposed, so that the minister is no longer fettered, just take a walk around!"
Zhu Jingyuan thought that Gao Shuyan would be unwilling to be wronged and dismissed, and it would be difficult to accept anger, but he didn't expect the other party to have such a mentality.
This made Zhu Jingyuan relax a lot, so he said with a smile: "It's great that Mr. Gao can think like this...... Life is short, it's time to be happy! ”
The two of them talked a lot, and the place of conversation was from the living room to the garden, and finally to a pavilion.
At this moment, within ten zhang, there is no palace maid accompanying them, and the two of them are very relaxed and casual, and they are not talking about the party and government of the court, but how to live a relaxed and freehand life.
Seeing that there was no one around, Gao Shuyan suddenly said in a low tone: "Your Highness......"
Originally, the atmosphere was still very cheerful, but at this moment, Gao Shuyan's expression was serious, and his tone became extremely solemn, which made the ease in the living room disappear.
"Sir, please say ......"
"Of course, the old minister can walk away, but those people will not let go of attacking the prince, you have to be careful in the future!"
These words are full of affection, and I have to say that Gao Shuyan is very loyal, but he was too "domineering" in the past.
"The soldiers will block, and the water will cover the earth!" Zhu Jingyuan sighed.
"The minister has a word, His Royal Highness Wanwang remembers!"
"Sir, please!"
"The Thirteenth Master is thoughtful, His Royal Highness must encircle him, and he can confront King Rui!"
Hearing Gao Shuyan say that Zhu Jinghong was thoughtful, Zhu Jingyuan didn't think so, after all, this guy could cause a lot of trouble when he went to Jinling.
Now that I'm back in Beijing, it's only been a few days, and there have been a lot of incidents, which doesn't seem to be very reliable.
Out of politeness, Zhu Jingyuan still replied: "I will have a good relationship with the thirteenth brother!" ”
Immediately afterwards, Gao Shuyan said: "But there is one point, His Royal Highness can use the Thirteenth Master, but he must never be trusted!" ”
This is not very good, it is more serious to divide the brotherhood of the Zhu family, and if it is spread out, it will kill the whole family, after all, the emperor today is the most taboo.
Only Gao Shuyan's absolute loyalty would say such heartfelt words.
Of course, it was precisely because he knew Gao Shuyan's loyalty that Zhu Jingyuan did not turn his face on the spot.
I only heard Zhu Jingyuan say in a deep voice: "Mr. Gao, don't be suspicious, your words...... I'm afraid it's unreasonable, and it's not in line with the teachings of the sages! ”
"Your Highness, now is not the time to be reasonable, now is the time to talk about success or failure!"
"The Thirteenth Master is still young now, and after the crown is opened next year, many things will be different, and it is hard to guarantee that there will be no other thoughts!"
"You mean...... The thirteenth brother will also covet the East Palace? ”
Gao Shuyan said solemnly: "It's not impossible! ”
"Mr. Gao, my thirteenth brother and I are siblings, and we ......"
Before Zhu Jingyuan finished speaking, Gao Shuyan interrupted: "Your Highness, don't forget, King Rui is also your sibling!" ”
"Tang Taizong and Prince Yin, Prince Chengqian and King Li Tai of Wei...... They are all siblings of the same mother! ”
Zhu Jingyuan knew all this history, but being sternly said by Gao Shuyan at this moment brought Zhu Jingyuan a different kind of impact.
Yes, these people are all brothers, and they all turn against each other in the end...... Brothers don't say much.
In fact, there are more recent examples, such as the Shizu and the Lingshu people, and then the current emperor and Prince Li and King Ying'e.
For reasons of embarrassment, Gao Shuyan did not say this bloody example, but it did not prevent the prince from thinking about it himself.
"Your Highness, the Thirteenth Master can be used, and if you use it well, you can suppress King Rui, but you have to use it and guard against it, remember to remember!"
"Mr. Gao, I've written it down!"
At this moment, Zhu Jingyuan felt extremely upset, and only felt that there was no one in this world who could be trusted.
After all, according to Gao Shuyan, even the loyal and upright thirteenth brother can't believe it now!
