Chapter 458: Sun Shaozu's self-recommendation
More than 20 days have passed in the blink of an eye, and nothing has happened to the small people, but the princes of the court are experiencing storms.
The impeachment of the Liaodong Metropolitan Division was only the introduction, and in the following incident, the two sides launched a larger-scale mutual impeachment.
During this period alone, fifteen officials were dismissed, and the crown prince Ruiwang can be said to have suffered from each other.
When the two sides were at a stalemate, several reports from Liaodong completely brought the battle into a white heat.
After the investigation of the Jinyi Wei North and South Second Divisions and the East Factory, it was believed that the Liaodong Metropolitan Division was still reselling ordnance, and Shui Rong himself was indeed suspected of covering up.
On April 13 of the twelfth year of orthodoxy, the people of Jinyi Wei came to the Beijing palace and were ordered to put Shui Rong under house arrest in the palace.
In the study of the palace, Shui Rong smashed more than a dozen toys in a row, and at this moment he hated himself very much, why didn't he investigate more strictly.
"I was deceived by them, I was deceived by them!" Shui Rong roared angrily.
The people in Liaodong and Andong can be said to be cunning and cunning, and Shui Rong is too young in comparison, and it is normal to be deceived.
At this time, someone outside the house said: "Lord Qiqi, Deputy Li Qianhu of Jinyi Wei has been ordered to ask, please go to the front hall immediately!" ”
Seeing that Shui Rong's expression was gloomy, Princess Zhao explained: "As long as you bite to death and are deceived, then you are just negligent, at most you will be punished, thinking about the merits of the previous king that day, I think Your Majesty will not be too harsh on you!" ”
"Common sense is so, but now those two are fighting, how can it be judged by common sense?" Shui Rong lamented.
After another long sigh, Shui Rong walked out of the room, and soon he came to the front hall.
The one who was ordered to interrogate was Li Wenzhao from the Nancheng Thousand Households Office, and he was also in charge of the house arrest.
As an outsider, after more than a year of separation, Li Wenzhao finally gained a firm foothold in the thousands of households in Nancheng, and now he is dedicated to his career.
"When you are asked to ask, you must answer truthfully!" Li Wenzhao's expression was serious.
"Yes!" The water dissolves and hooks his waist, showing how humble he is now.
"Do you know the prince of Joseon, Li Hui?"
"Acquaintance, but only acquaintance, we don't know each other very well!"
Li Wenzhao then asked: "Since we don't know each other, why did you invite him to the house many times a few days ago?" ”
"Just because I learned that North Korea has good things, I plan to buy some from it and use it as a gift for the old ones in Beijing!"
"You've only talked about it? Didn't say anything else? ”
"That's all I said!" Shui Rong replied calmly, because he was telling the truth.
"Lord Wang, if you want to be light, it's best to confess truthfully!" Li Wenzhao reminded in due course.
"I'm telling the truth!" Shui Rong still replied calmly.
Li Wenzhao didn't ask any more questions, and after he left, Shui Rong slumped on the chair next to him like a deflated ball.
At this time, he was extremely remorseful, why he had dealings with Li Hui before, this was completely a matter of giving people a handle.
But he could also think that it was precisely because he saw his dealings with Li Hui that Rui Wang would design a series of combination punches.
This also means that even if he doesn't have anything to do with Li Hui, there will always be other inappropriateness, and King Rui can dig a pit for him again.
So now the key question is whether the prince can keep him, rather than relying on evidence to exonerate himself.
Will the prince be able to keep himself? To be honest, I don't have enough confidence in water solubility.
Shui Rong was worried about himself, but the North Korean prince Li Hui, who was also involved in the matter, was also stopped on the way back.
"We are the North Korean mission, you must not be rude!"
It was Zheng Hong, the deputy envoy of the North Korean mission, who was also Li Hui's teacher and a relatively elegant middle-aged man.
"By order, please ask the prince of North Korea Li Hui to return to Beijing for questioning!" Jinyi Wei Baihu, who was blocking the road, said with a cold face.
This is also to blame Li Hui for realizing it later, since he learned that someone impeached Liaodong for reselling weapons to North Korea, he chose to leave the capital on the tenth day.
Even ten days have passed, and he is still in the Henan territory, and he was easily stopped by Jinyiwei.
"Question? What words to ask? Zheng Hong asked in a deep voice.
"You'll know when you go!"
Zheng Hong continued: "We still need to return to China as soon as possible, and the angels can ask now!" ”
The person who came was Jinyiwei, and it was likely that he would be more than lucky if he was brought back by these people, so Zheng Hong would never want to go if it was unnecessary.
The team leader Baihu sneered and immediately asked, "Do you want to resist the decree?" ”
Such a big hat was buttoned down, so that Zheng Hong immediately shut up, and it would be even more sinful to continue.
"How dare the foreign ministers resist the decree, we are willing to go back with the angel!"
…………
The so-called family has a scripture that is difficult to read, Shui Rong and Li Hui are in big trouble, and Sun Shaozu, who has been married for a long time, is also bullied and almost out of breath.
Because he needed to rely on the financial resources of the Xia family, after marrying Xia Jingui, he almost held Xia Jingui to the sky.
And this Xia Jingui is also fierce, Sun Shaozu is stuck to death in all aspects, restricting him from interacting with friends, not allowing him to play with women, and even more scathing words every day, with a posture of subduing him.
According to Sun Shaozu's fiery temper, it is really rare for him to be able to endure it in the past two months.
And the result of his doing this was that he got more than 30,000 taels of silver from the Xia family, all of which were smashed into the matter of running for office.
It's a pity that the more than 30,000 taels of silver went down, and in the end, he only found a vacant position in Beijing, and almost didn't make Sun Shaozu angry.
Today, he borrowed wine to kill his sorrows, and after drinking, he said a few words to Xia Jingui's bridal girl, and was scolded by him for nearly a quarter of an hour.
"You still learn to run officials, you look at what virtue you have now, I'm ......"
"If you can't do anything, why am I blind and married to your ......?"
"Shut up!" Sun Shaozu scolded angrily, and at this time there was a fierce light in his eyes.
He was a ruthless man who fought the battle array, and at this time, under the angry scolding, he really scared Xia Jingui.
But then, feeling that Sun Shaozu needed to cultivate his mother's help, Xia Jingui was sure that he didn't dare to come nonsense.
"Shut up? How dare you tell me to shut up? When you encouraged me to go back to my mother's house to get the money, it wasn't so majestic! ”
"You don't have the ability to do it yourself, you can't get a real job, so you use me to be angry, you are really ......"
Before Xia Jingui finished speaking, she saw Sun Shaozu get up and walk over, and the murderous aura in her eyes really frightened her.
"You...... What are you doing...... Don't come here......"
At this time, Sun Shaozu was already very angry, how could he care about the Xia family's financial resources, and when he got closer, he grabbed Xia Jingui's shirt, and the next moment he slapped him down.
There was a scream first, and then Xia Jingui angrily reprimanded: "Bastard...... Do you dare to hit me? ”
She was greeted by the second and third blows, during which she still kept scolding, but when the tenth slap fell, Xia Jingui finally knew to beg for mercy.
"Husband, I was wrong, spare me!"
Xia Jingui pleaded, at this time both sides of her face were swollen, and the corners of her mouth were overflowing with blood.
slapped her twice more before Sun Shaozu threw her to the ground and forcefully let Bao Chan come over.
"Look, Lao Tzu not only wants to talk to Bao Chan, but also play with her in front of you!"
After that, Sun Shaozu directly tore Bao Chan's clothes, and Xia Jingui, who was lying on the ground, didn't dare to say a word.
"Look up for Lao Tzu!" Honestly angrily.
So next, Xia Jingui could only look up in humiliation and watch Sun Shaozu live in front of him.
Sun Shaozu is a rough man, especially recently he has been controlled too strictly by Xia Jingui, so he directly turned into a beast at this time, and only made Bao Toad covered in bruises.
After he finished venting on Bao Chan, he dragged Xia Jingui into the bedroom, and then he didn't know how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade.
Half an hour later, he left the bedroom unsatisfied, and Xia Jingui in the room was so sore that he didn't even have the strength to stand up and walk.
At this time, Sun Shaozu was extremely upset, so he rode out of the city after leaving the house, intending to have fun outside.
Heading north out of the city, he planned to go to the edge of the Yellow River, during which he had to pass through Shanglinyuan.
Although he has no real position now, he finally has an official body, and it is no problem to pass through Shanglin Yuan.
However, before he entered the forest garden, he heard someone talking that a few days later when the North Fourth Guard was opened, Zhu Jinghong was inspecting the ordnance of the North Fourth Guard.
Although he has been at home recently, Sun Shaozu has been paying attention to the affairs of the court, and he knows that Zhu Jinghong will also go to the northwest this time.
Since we met it today, it is better to visit His Royal Highness King Xiang again, if I can ask for a dispatch by his side, it is better than staying in the capital and doing nothing...... Sun Shaozu thought so.
If you want to be an official, you have to be supported by nobles, and he is completely hopeless about running for an official with money, so he will have a temper exploding today.
After searching for a while in Shanglin Yuan, Sun Shaozu came to the place where the North Fourth Guard stored the ordnance, and then he waited outside honestly.
At this moment, in the armory, Zhu Jinghong is inspecting them one by one, these are newly produced.
There were 20,000 people in the North Four Guards, and a total of 30,000 muskets were urgently built this time, which could ensure that the guns could be replaced in time after they were damaged.
At present, in the armory, there are the first batch of 10,000 pieces, and they are about to be distributed to all the guards.
As for the second batch of 10,000 pieces, they will be delivered in half a month, and then they will be urgently transferred to the northwest by the Ministry of Industry to ensure that the North Fourth Guard can complete the reloading on the road.
The third batch of 10,000 guns will be transported to the end before the start of the war, ensuring that the North Fourth Guard can be replaced in time after the war.
As for the equipment eliminated by the North Four Guards, they will be taken to the northwest and handed over to the guards of the Beijing camp who have been deployed in place.
first ordered someone to try the musket, and then Zhu Jinghong tried the artillery, but the result still made him more satisfied.
Surrounded by a group of generals, Zhu Jinghong said slowly: "In a few days, you will take the lead, and I will catch up with you later!" ”
He originally wanted to set off with the army, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was completely unnecessary, because the army was too slow to travel.
Even if they walk for half a month first, they will only walk four or five hundred miles, and if they are fast, they will be able to catch up in three or four days.
Therefore, Zhu Jinghong plans to leave in a few days, on the one hand, to accompany his family more, and at the same time, to do a few more days of filial piety in front of his mother.
It will take him at least half a year to return to the northwest this time, and he will not leave any "regrets" before leaving.
After talking to the generals for a while, Zhu Jinghongfang dismissed everyone and asked them to go back with their weapons.
After everyone moved the air force armory, Zhu Jinghong said goodbye to everyone, and then led the guards out of the armory.
"Thirteen masters, thirteen masters......"
didn't go far, Zhu Jinghong heard a shout behind him, turned his head to look at the person who came, and only felt very familiar.
"Ministers and grandsons Shaozu, meet the thirteenth master!"
Sun Shaozu turned over and dismounted, knelt down two feet away from Zhu Jinghong, and the whole process was completed in one go.
Holding the reins, Zhu Jinghong signaled his subordinates not to move, and then asked, "Get up...... How did you remember to go to the forest garden! ”
"The minister has nothing to do to hang out, and when he learned that the prince was here, he came to visit!" Sun Shaozu said humbly.
"Hmmm!
Seeing Zhu Jinghong's mediocre reaction, Sun Shaozu knew that if he didn't take the initiative, he would waste today's opportunity.
"I heard that the Thirteenth Master is going to the northwest?"
"Hmm!" Looking at Sun Shaozu in front of him, Zhu Jinghong was thoughtful.
"The minister knows a lot about the things in the northwest, and now he happens to be at home, if the thirteenth master doesn't dislike it...... The minister is willing to follow the thirteenth master to the northwest and answer questions! ”
Is this guy too blunt, maybe he wants to be on top too much...... Zhu Jinghong was puzzled.
So much so at this time, it reminded him of the first time he saw Sun Shaozu more than half a year ago, and this guy's speech was so explicit.
In fact, Sun Shaozu was also very helpless, and he was also worried that what he said was too subtle, so that a straight person like Zhu Jinghong couldn't understand it.
"Well...... I'll have to think again, you go back first! ”
If it is a person, it will make Zhu Jinghong himself very cheap, and secondly, it will make Sun Shaozu not know how to cherish it.
"Yes!" At this moment, Sun Shaozu was somewhat lost.
But Zhu Jinghong didn't veto it directly, there is still a chance for him, anyway, he will continue to think of a way next.
When Zhu Jinghong went to inspect the barracks, the Xiangwang Mansion was also very lively at this moment.
Mrs. Wang led her daughter-in-law and came to meet the princess, and she specially called Aunt Xue for this reason.
On the side of Xiangwangfu, Yang Jingting, Zhen Qin and Qin Keqing were also there, and the scene was not ordinarily lively.
At this time, Tanchun was talking to Yang Jingting, Yingchun Xichun was talking to Zhen Qin Keqing, and Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue were in front of Baochai.
Wang Xifeng, who is in a hurry on weekdays, stands quietly behind Mrs. Wang at the moment, and her expression is somewhat cramped.
A few days ago, the Yun family sent someone to return the silver, and complained about her outside the words, and then Wang Xifeng knew that Baochai had already taken action in the Zhang family's affairs.
In other words, she is working against the Xiangwang Mansion.
Every time she thought about this, Wang Xifeng felt so anxious that she didn't sleep well during this time.
This matter was done by her in private, so she didn't even have anything to talk to, so that standing in front of Baochai at the moment, she didn't even know how to open her mouth to ask for guilt.
Although Baochai did not show her dissatisfaction with her from beginning to end, Wang Xifeng knew that his cousin was deep in the city and would not put anything on his face.
But she knew that the follow-up matter was solved by Zhu Jinghong, and Baochai really didn't know.
Everyone chatted for a while, and there were some things in the house that the princess wanted to decide in person, so Baochai got up and left, which made Wang Xifeng seize the opportunity.
Not long after Baochai left, Wang Xifeng excused herself to go out, and then she stayed in the courtyard outside the palace, and only waited for Baochai to return to her before she stepped forward to answer.
Let's say that when Baochai came to the side hall, he saw his old friend again.
"Meet the princess!" Cui Xiuqing stepped forward and gave a big salute.
"Excuse me!" Baochai smiled.
After Cui Xiuqing got up, Baochai sat down and asked, "I remember that you have embarked on the road to the north, why are you returning to Jinnei now?" What difficulties are you encountering? ”
Hearing this, Cui Xiuqing was extremely embarrassed, after all, it was okay to find someone to help once, and it didn't take long to come back for the second time, which seemed somewhat too snobbish.
And her embarrassed look was instantly captured by Baochai, which made Baochai think she had guessed.
But this time, the situation is indeed a little different, and how to tell Cui Xiuqing has to be cautious.
"...... This time, the folk girl came to be entrusted by someone, and I have something to tell you! ”
Baochai said calmly: "It's all your own people, don't be so restrained, just say whatever you want!" ”
"Half a month ago, the Minnu's family went north, because my father was sick and the trip was delayed, and when we stayed at the inn, we met the return of the North Korean mission, and we planned to rush with it......
