Chapter 0022: You Are Guilty
"That's true."
Facing Xu Huizu, who is close to him, Zhu Di does not have that majesty, plus he lives in the army all the year round, he is still used to having a lot of ruffianism.
As soon as he got started, he directly hooked his shoulders and back, and said with a smile: "Lao Xu, now that I am the prince, how do you feel?" ”
"Unexpected, hard to believe."
Xu Huizu has always been a straightforward person, and he and Zhu Di are natural united fronts, so he spoke unceremoniously and straightforwardly pointed out the thoughts in the hearts of all the courtiers.
No one expected that Zhu Di, the king of Yan, who was the most unlikely to be the crown prince, would rise to the top in a short period of time and enter the East Palace.
"Haha, Lao Xu, you are really ruthless."
Zhu Di didn't care, pulled Xu Huizu to a no-man's corner, lowered his voice, and said: "This time, the demons in Huizhou, Shaanxi Province are making trouble, I feel a little strange. The eldest brother has only returned from Shaanxi for less than a year, and this kind of thing happened, plus the second brother was also there, and he didn't suppress the demon rebellion, which shows that this group of demons is very unusual. ”
Zhu Di meant something, so he almost didn't say it on the bright side, although Xu Huizu was reckless, but he was not a brainless person, after a brief thought, he said: "This time, I will definitely uproot the so-called demons, and see which fairy is behind it." ”
He has already stated that Zhu Di likes it even more in his heart, some things should not be said too explicitly, you know that I know the heavens and the earth.
As for whether Xu Huizu will disobey the yang and the yin, Zhu Di is not worried about this, he is quite relieved about this brother-in-law, knowing that he has a straight character and is a rare handsome talent.
Among the second generation of nobles, Xu Huizu is the only one who can suppress all disobedience, and his status is equivalent to Zhu Biao, the prince of Yiwen in the second generation of the old Zhu family.
Now that Zhu Di has been canonized as the crown prince, the Xu family has naturally become Zhu Di's backing, which is not a question of whether the Xu family is willing or not, but the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, all of whom are regarded as such.
In the original history, Xu Huizu was a trump card left by Emperor Hongwu to Emperor Jianwen, with him, Hongwu firmly believed that even if someone rebelled, there would be no trouble.
It's just that Emperor Jianwen is not very sober-minded, and he doesn't trust Xu Huizu, who is related to Zhu Di, but instead uses Li Jinglong, so he played a good hand of cards, and finally ended up in a bad situation.
And Xu Huizu, even in the face of Zhu Di, who had already succeeded in appeasement, remained loyal and steadfast, and was finally placed under house arrest and died.
Now there are no such problems, Zhu Di was canonized as the crown prince, that is, the justifiable prince, Xu Huizu does not have to go through those tortures, he can show his ambitions.
Zhu Di and Xu Huizu exchanged a few words, and then left in a hurry, he was worried about the secret on Zhan Hui before, so he went straight to Wuying Palace.
Wuying Hall and Wenhua Hall are on the left and right sides of Fengtian Hall respectively, corresponding to each other, Wenhua Hall is often used as the place where the prince deals with government affairs, and Wuying Hall is often used as the place where the emperor deals with government affairs.
This clear division of powers reflects the strictness and order of imperial power, but it is often difficult to limit the development of imperial power to the peak of what is set on paper, so the emperor wants to change places, and this custom cannot be stopped.
Just like Emperor Hongwu abolished Zhongshu Province, dismissed the prime minister, and was in charge of the world's government affairs, there were a few kings in later generations who were able to do this, and in the end they did not set up a cabinet to take charge of government affairs.
The iron sign that eunuchs are not allowed to participate in politics is still standing in the Forbidden City, but in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the ceremonial eunuchs and eunuchs have already controlled the power of approving red, so what is written on paper is not executed, that is, a piece of waste paper.
In the Wuying Palace, Zhu Yuanzhang leaned on the back of the chair, his eyes slightly closed, and the previous dense was placed on the desk.
This matter started because of Zhan Hui, so naturally he couldn't leave this person behind, and he had already asked Mao Xiang to summon Zhan Hui and ask him what he thought.
As for whether Zhan Hui knew about this matter, Zhu Yuanzhang sneered in his heart, how could he not know, according to the general process, this secret should be submitted by the general envoy, and it should be directly in front of the emperor, and it will not appear in the court at all.
There are some things, when put on the bright side, the meaning is different, and now the ministers are panicked, and it is impossible to deal with them coldly.
Soon, Zhan Hui and the crown prince Zhu Di arrived at the same time, and after the ceremony, Zhu Di naturally stood by Zhu Yuanzhang's side.
"Give a seat."
Zhu Yuanzhang opened his eyes and gave an order, and immediately a eunuch came over with a small bench, and when Zhan Hui sat down, the old eunuch Huang Gou'er held Mishu in his hand and handed it over.
This is naturally what Zhu Yuanzhang meant, whether Zhan Hui knows it or not, he must know it now, and if he has a heart, he naturally has to undertake this matter.
Zhan Hui had already thought about everything, so he was not surprised, and when he opened it, his eyelids jumped.
He knew about it, and even if this secret was able to reach the heavens, he planned it single-handedly, but the content was not written by him.
Therefore, it was the first time he learned the specific content, and his eyelids jumped at a glance, and he said in his heart that this girl was so strict in writing.
"Zhan Hui, are you guilty?"
A calm voice sounded, Zhan Hui knelt on the ground, his head touched the ground, and said in fear, "The minister is guilty." ”
"What's the crime?"
"The minister violated the custom, privately received the complaint, did not show the truth in time, the minister is guilty, please Your Majesty to punish the crime."
"Let's talk about it."
Zhan Hui maintained this posture, respectfully, and said: "The minister rested in the mansion yesterday, and the next person came to report, and there was a people's girl with the "Great Message" on her head, and she came straight forward. ”
Speaking of this matter, Zhan Hui was also quite depressed, yesterday he was free in the house, resting well, the housekeeper ran over in a hurry, and as soon as he opened his mouth, Zhan Hui's heart burst out.
"Master, it's not a good thing, someone wants to see you with the "Great Message"!"
With the "Great Message" on his head, no one dares to stop him, even if Zhan Hui doesn't want to see it, then he has to see it, otherwise let His Majesty know that he will drive the people with the "Great Message" out of the door, I am afraid that tomorrow will be in danger.
Zhan Hui warmly received the young girl and learned that her name was from Wucheng County, Huzhou Prefecture, Zhejiang, and her surname was Su.
He originally thought that the Su clan was going to sue a certain county official in Wucheng County for corruption and perverting the law, after all, this kind of thing is not rare, and flies and mosquitoes have always been difficult to catch.
But as soon as Su Shi spoke, he made his heart chuckle, and his expression suddenly became serious.
The person sued by the Su family turned out to be a member of the second rank of the dynasty, Zhao Mian, the secretary of the household department.
It stands to reason that Zhao Mian has already reached the official level of the household department, and his family is Huguang Yiling, so he should have nothing to do with such a star-fighting people.
But Su's words made Zhan Hui unconsciously break out in a cold sweat, and his heart was like being turned upside down, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
