Zhu Di left.
He walked away in a daze.
He immediately rushed back to Jinling City.
There was not even time to announce the results of the literary test.
Qiu Fu, Zhu Neng and other distinguished military officials looked at each other in shock.
In the end, everyone's eyes were focused on Li Hongbi.
"You kid, you stole the show this time!"
Qiu Fu patted him on the shoulder with emotion, his eyes were complicated and incomprehensible.
Zhu Neng also looked at Li Hongbi with a strange expression, as if he didn't recognize him.
Is such an evil young man really the son of Li Jinglong?
Is it possible that this child Hongbi was picked up by Li Jinglong?
What a wonderful child, why couldn’t he have been born by himself?
Qiu Fu and Zhu Neng were so angry that they gritted their teeth when they thought about their own ineffective villain.
There is no harm without comparison. Once compared, the harm will come immediately.
At least Zhu Yong and Qiu Song will be beaten severely tonight!
"Brother Qiu, I think the first place in the essay test will go to Brother Wen Bi, right?"
Li Hongbi spoke tentatively, but when Zhang Fu heard this, his face turned red with anger!
"What does Hongbi mean by this?"
"Do you think I, Zhang Fu, am just a despicable person who is greedy for fame and fortune?"
"Hey... no!" Li Hongbi quickly explained: "Brother Wenbi, you have misunderstood. Hongbi has always seen your character and has always admired and respected you!"
"It's just that the title of No. 1 in the literary test means nothing to Hongbi. On the contrary, Brother Wenbi needs it more!"
Fearing that Zhang Fu would not accept it, Li Hongbi pretended to be dissatisfied and complained: "I am an academic officer, what use is the title of No. 1 in the review?"
"Is it possible that Your Majesty can send me another errand to give me two white-collar salaries?"
As soon as these words came out, the generals burst into laughter, and the atmosphere gradually became cheerful.
Zhang Fu opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but Qiu Fu waved his hand to stop him.
"Wen Bi, this is Hongbi's kindness. Please stop talking nonsense."
"The worst I can do is owe a favor to my mother-in-law, who acts like a bitch!"
Hearing this, Zhang Fu sighed helplessly.
Although he was very reluctant, he had to admit that being the first in the review was indeed very important to Zhang Fu!
Zhang Fu is no better than Li Hongbi. He can only take the path of a general in the army. But with the first place in this review, at least his training time can be greatly shortened!
"Hongbi, I will remember this kindness for my brother!"
"If you have anything to say in the future, I, Zhang Fu, will never hesitate to say hello!"
"Okay!" Li Hongbi nodded with a smile.
If you make friends with a top Ming Dynasty general in advance, you won’t lose money on this deal!
If the old Li family wants to be evergreen, in addition to kneeling and licking the dog emperor, they must also have more allies who can advance and retreat together, such as the eldest princess, and these top Ming Dynasty nobles in front of them!
As long as there are enough allies, even if the Dog Emperor goes crazy and insists on killing Li Hongbi, at least there will be someone around to intercede!
The rankings for this review competition have been decided, with Zhang Fu taking first place and Li Hongbi taking second place.
As for the latter ones, sorry, there is no ranking.
Didn’t you see that those nonsense things they wrote were directly burned by His Majesty the Emperor’s order?
All the noble disciples were truly convinced by this result.
Zhang Fu will not say it anymore. He is a born general with both civil and military skills. He participated in this review competition with the intention of being the first in order to find a suitable position in the army.
This kind of dimensionality reduction blow made all the noble disciples lose their temper.
As for Li Hongbi...
This is a real warrior!
He dared to make jokes with His Majesty the Emperor, and he almost shouted "big brother"!
Moreover, the explosive package he fiddled with directly blew Jie Jin into the tree!
Although the disciples didn't know much about it, they had seen with their own eyes the two major things Li Hongbi had done!
All in all, in one sentence, I am convinced!
I can’t accept it!
Do you dare to call His Majesty the Emperor big brother?
Do you dare to harm Bachelor Xie Jin in public?
You don’t dare, and neither do I, but Li Hongbi dares!
A true warrior dares to face...
"Big brother, please accept my respects from my younger brother!"
Zhang Fu, the youngest brother of Zhang Fu, the Marquis of Xin'an, Tan Zhong, the son of Tan Yuan, the Marquis of Chong'an, Li An, the son of Li Yuan, the Marquis of Anping, Wang Bi, the son of Wang Zhong, the Marquis of Jing'an... A group of distinguished disciples gathered around and bowed to Li Hongbi with playful smiles. .
Li Hongbi was so confused that Monk Zhang Er couldn't figure it out, and he was immediately stunned.
What do you mean? Are you doing it like visiting the pier?
At the same time, inside the Qianqing Palace.
As soon as Zhu Di returned to Qianqing Palace, he immediately summoned Dao Yan urgently.
Monk Daoyan was still meditating when he suddenly heard His Majesty's urgent call. He didn't have time to think too much and hurried over.
Unexpectedly, the first thing Zhu Di said when he saw him was a question.
"Monk, have you ever mentioned to anyone the plan you and I discussed to reduce the vassal state?"
As soon as Monk Daoyan heard this, he shook his head subconsciously.
"Your Majesty, I am not a person who lies!"
After receiving Dao Yan's affirmative reply, Zhu Di's expression became even weirder.
Sure enough!
Dao Yan has nothing to do with Li Hongbi!
But Li Hongbi guessed their strategy of reducing the vassal!
This kid...is really a monster!
After Zhu Di was shocked, he was filled with joy.
It is a great good thing that our country has such evil talents!
As long as he is trained properly, Li Hongbi will definitely become a minister of the Ming Dynasty in the future, assisting the emperor in governing the country and bringing peace to the world!
Seeing Zhu Di alone and excited, Monk Daoyan suddenly became even more confused.
"May I ask Your Majesty, what happened? Could it be that... the vassal king has changed?"
This is the only possibility that Monk Dao Yan can think of.
Otherwise, how could the emperor suddenly ask such a question without thinking?
Zhu Di shook his head with a smile.
"Monk, if I told you that there is someone who is as intelligent as you, would you believe it?"
When Yao Guangxiao heard this, he immediately laughed out loud.
He Daoyan was proficient in the three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, and also understood the theories of hundreds of schools of thought in the pre-Qin Dynasty. It can be said that he gathered the sages and sages into a masterpiece. Only then did he suddenly become enlightened, and his wisdom and planning reached the sky.
How can ordinary people compare to me, Dao Yan?
"Your Majesty, don't make fun of the poor monk."
"In the whole world, the only person who can stand shoulder to shoulder with the poor monk is probably Liu Ji and Liu Bowen. It's a pity that I won't be able to meet Liu Ji in person!"
Arrogant!
Quite arrogant!
There is only one person in the world who dares to say such words in front of Emperor Yongle, Yao Guangxiao.
Zhu Di didn't take it seriously when he heard this. He had long been accustomed to Yao Guangxiao's arrogance, so he didn't care.
However, now there is a good opportunity to attack Yao Guangxiao's arrogance!
"Oh? Really?" Zhu Di smiled, "Then let me tell you, there really is such a person!"
"Not only did he state in one sentence your policy of reducing vassal vassals to peacefully reduce vassal states to support the clan, he also said that this method has a huge hidden danger!"
As soon as these words came out, Yao Guangxiao's expression changed drastically, and the beads in his hand stopped involuntarily.
This policy of reducing vassals was an excellent plan that he came up with by reviewing the history books of the past dynasties, examining the experience of the rise and fall of dynasties, and finally combining it with the actual situation of the Ming Dynasty.
It not only solved the problem of the vassal king's self-respect in supporting troops, but also prevented the emperor from being blamed for slaughtering his relatives. It can be said to be a clever plan that kills two birds with one stone.
How could someone say it so easily?
And there are still hidden dangers in such a clever plan?
"impossible!"
"Absolutely impossible!"
Yao Guangxiao waved his hands repeatedly. He, who was always conceited, could not accept this statement at all.
Zhu Di also knew this guy's temperament, so he didn't bother to talk more, but relayed Li Hongbi's original words.
"If you want to know what the problem is with the policy of reducing vassalage, then find a chessboard and place rice on it. Start with two grains of rice and place the squares of the former in order. In the end you will understand."
Yao Guangxiao: "???"
Rice on a chessboard?
Is this such a child's play?
