After talking to Jia Yun for a while, Zhu Jinghong let him leave, and he himself changed his clothes and entered the palace.

Regarding Li Hui's incident, he could directly come to the rescue, but it was a very stupid and meaningless act.

So this time, he didn't plan to take the initiative, but to use the power of the emperor.

To put it more bluntly, quietly collecting so much money is not a good thing for Zhu Jinghong, and it is actually safer to pick the bright side.

When he came to the Qianqing Palace, Zhu Xianming was reading the chapter as usual, and most of the things on his desk at the moment were military newspapers.

After two months of evolution of the situation, the northwest has now roughly formed two fronts, the north and the south.

The northern front, which is dominated by the Anxi Xingdu Division, together with the conscripted cavalry of various ministries, is heading to Zasak to counter the rebellion, and at the same time intervene in the civil strife in Bria and Tushetu.

The southern front was complicated, with reinforcements from Beijing, troops from Qinghai and Tibetan Tusi, garrison troops from Gansu and other capitals, and conscripts from the southern leagues and Jurchens to form a southern defense area against Dzungaria.

The northern front is now fighting non-stop, but although the confrontation on the southern front is larger, no large-scale battles have broken out, and the two sides are still in the tentative stage.

The latest situation is that the Kazakh Khanate has sent troops to reinforce Dzungaria, and Zhu Xianming guesses that it is very likely to be instructed by the Rakshasa people.

Of course, waiting for the reinforcements of the North Fourth Guard to be transferred, the Ming side still has an advantage in terms of strength.

"Your Majesty, the Thirteenth Master asks to see you!"

"Let him ......"

"Dad, my son has a great good deed!"

Before the emperor finished speaking, Zhu Jinghong had already walked into the hall, making Zhu Xianming look up extremely dissatisfied.

"Whoever told you to come in, get out!"

"Dad, it's really a good thing that my son will get out after he finishes!"

Perhaps because his eyes were tired, Zhu Xianming put down the chapter in his hand at the right time, and then picked up the teacup on the side and said, "What good can you do!" ”

"In the past two days, the North Korean envoy has found his son and wants to ask him for help...... Fish Li Hui out of the Jinyi Guard! ”

"Don't get involved in this matter!" Zhu Xianming frowned.

In the battle between the fourth and sixth children, Zhu Xianming naturally watched the fire, and let this matter go on the one hand to train them, and on the other hand, he really wanted to clean up the scum in the army.

"My son didn't want to pay attention to it, but the benefits they gave were too great!" Zhu Jinghong said very bluntly.

Without waiting for Zhu Xianming to scold, Zhu Jinghong then said: "The North Korean said that he was willing to give a gold mine to his son, saying that it could produce five or six thousand taels of gold every year!" ”

There can be so much gold every year, even in the Ming Dynasty, it is rare, Zhu Xianming suddenly became a little interested.

"Dad, you said that in this Quartet of the world, why is there so much gold and silver, although I am a big man, there are no such good things underground!"

Zhu Jinghong has always instilled in the emperor that gold and silver are everywhere abroad, and now with the North Korean incident as proof, his statement is more substantiated.

Japan has gold and silver mines, and the small concubine of the Korean royal family can also have such a rich mine, do I have to suffer from poverty? Zhu Xianming's heart became more and more unbalanced.

All the great undertakings he wants to do need gold and silver to support, so the imbalance in his heart soon turned into demand and embezzlement.

"What do you mean about this?" Zhu Xianming asked.

"My son wants to agree, but it's not for his money, but for the sake of diplomatic relations between the two countries, it's really not good to detain the North Korean envoy!"

"For the sake of diplomatic relations between the two countries......" repeated this sentence, Zhu Xianming couldn't help but sneer.

He remembered that two years ago, Zhu Jinghong shot the son of the Japanese shogunate with an arrow, and he also said that it was for the sake of diplomatic relations between the two countries.

Seeing that the old man didn't say anything, Zhu Jinghong continued: "Dad, as for the thousands of taels of gold, my son doesn't really want it, just take him some hard-earned money, and the rest of the sons are willing to give you military salary!" ”

Money is very important to Zhu Jinghong, but money is never used to save, but has to be spent to reflect its value.

The current "bribe" of the emperor is the time when the gold shows its value.

"I sent you this little money?"

"Courtesy is light and affection is heavy, my son has no ability, he can't contribute to the country, and he should contribute some money!"

North Korea's Li Hui was only temporarily detained and interrogated, and Zhu Xianming would not really do anything to him, after all, North Korea was quite deferential to Daming.

In fact, Li Hui's arrest was the result of Zhu Jingyuan's operation, and Zhu Xianming was not very satisfied with this, but things were still under control, so he did not intervene in this matter.

"Daddy...... Look at it! ”

"You still have to come according to the laws of the court, if he is innocent...... Then you have to put it! Zhu Xianming replied casually.

Although there is no clear direction in this sentence, as long as the old man does not object, it is enough for Zhu Jinghong.

"You've been making noise about going to the northwest, and tomorrow the North Fourth Guard will set off, when do you plan to leave?"

"Uh...... In half a month, my son knows that the queen mother is reluctant, so he wants to spend more days with her! ”

This is not a lie, in recent days, Zhu Jinghong has entered the palace to meet the queen almost every day, and every time he brings some ingenious gifts.

"Hmm...... Let's go back if there's nothing to do! Zhu Xianming said in a deep voice.

"Son, I'm leaving!"

"Today you have such filial piety, I am very relieved!" Zhu Xianming pointed out.

It's a reminder to me, don't forget to hand over the gold...... Zhu Jinghong thought secretly.

"Dad, don't say it's a few thousand taels of gold, even if it's a mountain of gold and silver, if your son has it, I'll get it for you!"

Others said this politely, but with Zhu Jinghong's good character, Zhu Xianming believed that he was sincere in what he said.

But he is a dignified emperor, and he has to earn money on his own, how can he let a child charge into battle.

It seems that another edict has to be issued to let the Liaodong Navy Division speed up the training, and I can't wait anymore...... Looking at the back of Zhu Jinghong's departure, Zhu Xianming thought in his heart.

It is said that after Zhu Jinghong returned to the house after leaving the palace, he learned that there was a guest in the house, and it was a mage recommended by the wives of Jiafu.

Hearing the word "mage", Zhu Jinghong was somewhat surprised, so he couldn't help but want to see who it was.

When he arrived at the Tongxin Palace, he realized that the so-called "mage" was actually Miaoyu.

This person was recommended by the Jia family, thinking that he had been trusted by the Jia family, and he might be used by the sixth child next.

In the side hall of the Tongxin Palace, Yang Jingting, Keqing, Zhen Qin, and Yinglian were all there, and they all got up to salute at this moment.

"I've seen the prince!"

When everyone saw the ceremony, Baochai, as the princess, greeted Zhu Jinghong and introduced him with a smile: "This is Master Miaoyu, who has profound insights in Buddhism, and is telling us the scriptures!" ”

"Preaching? You can listen to such boring stuff? Zhu Jinghong said bluntly.

"The difference between the king's words, the Buddhism is mysterious and profound, and there are all kinds of mysteries in it......"

It was Yang Jingting who said this, and she had always had a bad mood in her heart, so today she had the most conversations with Miaoyu, and the comfort effect was the most obvious.

At this time, Zhu Jinghong "spoke disrespectfully", and Yang Jingting wanted to fight for morality.

"Okay, okay...... I was wrong, I shouldn't have talked nonsense! Zhu Jinghong immediately spoke out to forgive.

At this time, Baochai also said: "You still know that you are talking nonsense, the Buddha is above...... If I know that you are talking nonsense, it will be bad to be angry and punish you! ”

It was at this moment that Miaoyu slowly walked in front of Zhu Jinghong, and said with a solemn expression after pronouncing the Buddha's name: "My Buddha is merciful, and I don't think I will blame His Royal Highness King Xiang!" ”

"Hahahaha......"

Seeing Miaoyu's serious appearance, Zhu Jinghong couldn't help laughing, and then he said: "Miaoyu, I remember that you can play in addition to Buddhism, why don't you sing a song with this king today!" ”

With just one sentence, Miaoyu's loftiness and arrogance were shattered, making her change color in an instant.

Of course, it was only for a moment, and the next moment Miaoyu returned to normal, and then said: "The prince is the royal heir, and his words are frivolous, which really makes the poor nun puzzled!" ”

Who knew that Zhu Jinghong asked rhetorically: "The monks are pure and pure, don't they still care about frivolity or not?" ”

Pulling Zhu Jinghong aside, Baochai said with a smile: "Okay, okay...... Although they are monks, they are also in the prime of their lives, so it is really inappropriate for you to speak like this! ”

At this time, Zhen Qin also interjected: "What the princess said is very true, you can't bully others, Thirteenth Master!" ”

Even the most low-key Keqing showed signs of presiding over justice at this time, which really surprised Zhu Jinghong.

It can be seen that although Miaoyu came to the palace for the first time, she also had a good relationship with everyone in the palace.

In the same way, it can be explained that she is also like a fish in water in Jia's family, which shows how insightful this person is in the cold of loneliness.

"Forget it...... I'm an eyesore here, so I'll go! ”

Seeing this situation, Miaoyu finally felt a little more relieved and felt that she had won a game.

Before leaving, Zhu Jinghong turned to Baochai and said, "You come with me!" ”

"You guys talk first, I'll be back in a moment!" Baochai left a message before leaving.

Soon he and his wife came to Yin'an Palace, and Zhu Jinghong let everyone else out.

After sitting down, without waiting for Zhu Jinghong to speak, Baochai Fang asked, "What did my father say?" ”

"It's a tacit approval, but almost all the thousands of taels of gold have to be sent to the old man!" Zhu Jinghong replied calmly.

Baochai also said calmly: "My father has received your filial piety, how can he not treat you differently!" ”

The so-called five or six thousand taels of gold, as long as it is used where it should be used, Baochai will not feel distressed because of stinginess.

Zhu Jinghong continued: "This matter ...... You can tell your friends good news! ”

"Hmm!"

"It's just that once you intervene, I'm afraid you're going to offend King Rui's Mansion, and when the time comes, he will ask ......."

"I'm going to leave soon, and he can't do anything to me, but he's a sinister man...... Prevent him from putting cold arrows in his back! ”

Holding Baochai's hand, Zhu Jinghong said solemnly: "You have to be careful!" ”

Sighing, Baochai replied, "You are happy to go, but you left me on the fire to roast!" ”

"Who made you princess!" Zhu Jinghong said with a smile.

The two flirted and scolded a few words, Zhu Jinghong smiled again, and said seriously: "There is something you need to know!" ”

"What?"

After signaling Baochai to come over, Zhu Jinghong told her Miaoyu's true identity.

After listening, Baochai couldn't help but be surprised: "Really? ”

"Hmm!" Zhu Jinghong nodded calmly.

Zhu Jinghong said calmly: "You have to guard against this person, but you don't have to be estranged from her, it depends on what she wants to do!" ”

Nodding, Baochai gradually regained his composure and thought about what to do next.

"You're going to make a fuss about her?"

Without waiting for Zhu Jinghong to answer, Baochai continued: "Otherwise, you won't indulge her, either you will directly take her into the mansion, or let Jinyiwei take people!" ”

The latter paragraph is a vivid interpretation of Zhu Jinghong's temperament, and Baochai knows him very well.

"No wonder you let her play and sing as soon as you met, it seems that you have known each other before!"

"The princess is so smart!" Zhu Jinghong responded, but did not mean to say more.

Putting away the meaning of banter, Baochai reminded again: "The White Lotus Sect has always been a big trouble for the imperial court, if you want to use them to make a fuss, be careful of missing it!" ”

"There are other people who use them to make a fuss!" Zhu Jinghong said with a smile.

"Who?"

After just a little thought, Baochai realized that it would not be the fourth, so the answer was self-evident.

Looking at Zhu Jinghong, Baochai said thoughtfully: "Then don't let them go!" ”

With his own man Huang Que behind, I'm afraid that it will be difficult for the sixth family not to plant their heads!

The two chatted for a while, and Zhu Jinghong let Baochai leave, and then he called Deng An.

Of course, he couldn't do it himself, so he handed it over to Deng An, who had a bright head.

About half an hour later, Deng An led a few little eunuchs to the gate of the Thousand Households in Dongcheng.

The name of the Xiangwang Mansion was presented, and the captain on duty warmly welcomed him into the meeting room, and served a good tea that was rarely used.

After waiting for less than half a moment, a deputy Qianhu greeted him.

"My father-in-law is here, and I am far away...... Please forgive me! Shi Jin stepped forward with a smile.

To be honest, in the capital, with the identity of Deng An, he does have a lot of face outside the palace.

Standing up and arching his hand, Deng Anfang asked, "I don't know what to call an adult?" ”

"In the lower Qianhu Shijin, today we Qianhu went out, I don't know what my father-in-law is looking for him?"

"I heard that you took the prince of Joseon?" Deng An asked straight to the point.

"Yes, there is such a thing!" Shi Jin replied.

Deng An continued: "This person is a friend of our prince, and the prince said that he is innocent, let you let him go!" ”

"Gonggong Deng, this matter is not a master, and the court has a law......

"Shi Deputy Qianhu, if you can't be the master, let you Luo Qianhu come over!"

With a gloomy face, Deng An continued: "And you don't have to prevaricate me, you know what the inside story of this matter is, the prince of North Korea is not guilty in the first place, and it makes no sense for you to keep him locked up!" ”

"Gonggong Deng, whether the Korean prince is guilty or not will only be known after a strict investigation!" Shi Jin reminded at the right time.

"So you're not going to release them?" Deng An asked calmly.

"This ......"

This matter has already been greeted by the Rui Wangfu, how dare Shi Jin let people go casually, even if it is a thousand households Luo Qing, don't weigh it.

"Before I came, the prince instructed, if you thousand households are unwilling to release people, please invite you thousand households to Xiangwang's mansion, and the prince can personally take off his black gauze hat!"

The Jinyi Wei Qianhu in Beijing is a very special and key official, even the cabinet bosses and the nine secretaries of the six ministries, as well as the senior officials of the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, have to give them some face.

If you want to remove it, you have to get the emperor's permission.

However, once the matter is related to the three brothers Zhu Jinghong, it can no longer be handled with common sense.

To put it mildly, even if Zhu Jinghong discounted Luo Qing's leg in the most brutal way, it was not a big deal at all.

Outsiders don't know that as a dignified brocade guard, Luo Qing understands that this master is ruthless, and he even risked his own life.

So in this matter, Luo Qing, who was hiding in the inner hall and eavesdropping, saw that Deng An was leaving, and the whole person was not calm.

"Grandpa Deng, Grandpa Deng stays!" Luo Qing chased him out.

"Lao Shi, how did you entertain Gonggong Deng, fortunately I came back in time...... Otherwise, Grandpa Deng won't be angry with you and run away! ”

"The lesson of the adults is that lowly duty is poor hospitality, and sin and sin......"

Seeing these two people acting, Deng An didn't have the heart to poke them.

"Luo Qianhu, our prince asked you to release the prince of Joseon, what do you say?"

"Father-in-law Deng, this matter ......"

"Don't worry, the prince said that he will bear it for you if something happens, and he will definitely not let you suffer!" Facing Luo Qing, who can call the shots, Deng An confessed to him.

Here can reflect the benefits of setting up people, Zhu Jinghong said that he would take responsibility, so he would definitely not sell people.
