Xu Qin now understood why Zhu Di wanted to find Emperor Jianwen, whether it was Zheng He's voyages to the West or someone else. Until his death, he was looking for his missing nephew.
Because although Emperor Jianwen disappeared, his ghost has always been in the hearts of some people. As long as the opportunity is right, if someone rises up and shouts, it may be the danger of overthrowing the country.
Why did Chairman Zhu move the capital to Beijing in the end? Maybe it was in Yingtian Mansion in Jinling City that he couldn't sleep well. I always feel like there is a ghost staring at me.
By discussing this matter with Xu Huizu, Xu Qin could clearly feel that this father had always had Emperor Jianwen in his heart. I always believed that Chairman Zhu was a rebel who usurped power.
Xu Qin didn't know how to persuade him. Will Zhu Yunwen do better than Zhu Di? He doesn't think so.
Just look at the things he did after he ascended the throne and the people he used, you will know what his level is.
What made him even more depressed was that Emperor Jianwen was very wary of this father when he was in power. Even though Dad defeated Zhu Di many times in the Battle of Jingnan, he still couldn't be trusted.
Li Jinglong, on the other hand, was defeated repeatedly, and finally opened the city gate for Zhu Di. In this way, Emperor Jianwen believed him to the end.
In the Battle of Lingbi, if Emperor Jianwen hadn't specially transferred Xu Huizu and his army back because he was afraid that he would become bigger. Maybe the history of the Ming Dynasty will be rewritten.
However, despite being so suspicious and guarded against by Emperor Jianwen, Xu Huizu remained loyal and still remembers him even now.
Xu Qin can understand this, after all, he is a man created by this era. After all, he is Xu Da's eldest son, and this is the education he received.
But Emperor Jianwen disappeared and Chairman Zhu came to power and did a good job. Why are you still obsessed with it?
"Dad, this is all Lao Zhu's own business, and it has been settled. Can you stop being so stubborn? Can't you live a happy life for a few days?"
Xu Qin earnestly advised him to marry his father.
"People must be loyal and righteous when they are alive, otherwise how can they be called people?" Xu Huizu listened to his son's words for a long time and finally gave this sentence.
After saying that, he looked lonely, probably feeling that his son was too unlike him. Xu Qin really wanted to go up and give him a big showdown.
This is meanness, not loyalty.
Xu Qin was not moved at all, only incomprehensible. He felt that if Zhu Yunwen came back now, even if he only had a pair of underwear left, his father would be able to do it with him with a knife.
"Dad, I admire your loyalty and unparalleled son. But can we calm down a little and don't shout so loudly that the whole world can hear it. Zhu Yunwen will not be moved, and His Majesty will not let you go. You moved yourself, but you made us all miserable. Have a good life.”
Xu Qin told his father the truth.
Xu Huizu had an obviously painful look on his face, and he looked at his son intently. I instantly hunched over and felt more than ten years older.
Maybe he felt betrayed by his son, but he couldn't refute it. To this day, he just sticks to one thought.
As soon as Xu Qin finished persuading his father, the eunuch who delivered the imperial edict arrived at the door of the house. He also brought a team of royal guards with him, looking at the father and son with eager eyes.
Dingguo Duke Xu Jingchang really didn't waste a moment. He went directly to the palace after leaving the Duke of Wei's mansion. This is because they want to strangle Wei Guogong and his son to death as quickly as possible.
They are all named Xu, why are there such big hatreds?
"I'll go with you." Xu Huizu seemed calm and relieved.
"My lord, I'm sorry, your majesty didn't declare you. My little lord, please come with our family, your majesty will be waiting there!"
The little eunuch is smiling but not smiling, and is scary.
"It has nothing to do with my son." Xu Huizu took a step forward and said.
"Wei Guogong, you have to come to the palace at your own convenience. The imperial decree our family has received is to take Xu Qin into the palace immediately. If there is any delay..."
The little eunuch looked at Xu Qin with a dead smile.
The Jinyiwei behind him took a step forward, and the implication was obvious, if you dare not go, these people will not be polite.
"Father, your majesty has already given you a lot of respect, otherwise he should have taken us to the Jinyiwei Prison at this time. I will enter the palace right away, but my father-in-law was beaten on the butt not long ago..."
Xu Qin pointed to his butt, he really didn't dare to leave quickly now.
"Your Majesty knows, and has already given orders..." The little eunuch waved his hand and four sturdy men came out.
The four big men were fat and strong, with arms that could run a horse. Each of them held a thick stick, like a sedan chair.
Xu Qinxin said that this was good, and it was good to carry him. It seemed that His Majesty's anger was limited.
"How come my father-in-law doesn't have a sedan? It doesn't matter, my family has one." Xu Qin said and wanted to call someone to prepare the sedan.
"Young Master, don't bother me. Your Majesty is talking about fighting, not lifting, so please bear with me..." The little eunuch smiled sinisterly.
Before Xu Qin could react, four big men stepped forward. Two of them pierced their sticks along the armpits, and the other two crossed them on their thighs. The four people lifted him up directly with all their strength.
"Hey, father-in-law, what do you mean? You can't fight like this!" Xu Qin felt as if the wound on his butt was torn open.
The arms are caught between the sticks and must be stretched tightly. Otherwise you will get pinched. My thighs are even more uncomfortable.
If you go out in this posture, you will either become disabled or die in society. When people along the street saw this, how could they still have the nerve to visit brothels in the future?
What posture, no, what eyes did the girl in the brothel use to look at me?
This is absolutely not possible. What's more, if he hasn't married a wife yet, how can he have the nerve to get married in the future? What do the good girls of Ming Dynasty think of me? I want to marry three wives and four hundred concubines.
Isn't this a slap in my face? Zhu Di, you are so cruel. Xu Qin wailed in his heart.
"Father, let's talk about it. Can you cover your face with me? This is too embarrassing. I haven't married yet." Xu Qin said to the young eunuch.
"Young Master, Your Majesty has not given me an explanation. I dare not make any independent decisions. Please forgive me." The young eunuch said in a sinister tone and snorted coldly after speaking.
Xu Qin wished he could talk to a eunuch about marrying a wife. Isn't this a conflict of opinion?
Seeing that nothing could be changed, Xu Qin simply closed his eyes and pretended to be dead. I scolded my father and Zhu Di a hundred times in my heart. One is stubborn and the other is inhumane. Isn't this a trap for yourself?
They were carried leisurely along the street into the palace. Fortunately, Duke Wei's palace was not far from the palace, otherwise his legs and arms would have been disabled.
When Wei Guogong saw that his son was taken away, he felt regretful. He decided to enter the palace since he was responsible for one person's work and one person's responsibility.
As a result, when he arrived at the door, he found Wang Zhong blocking the door.
"Mr. Xu, Your Majesty asked me to drink some tea with you." Wang Zhong was Zhu Di's personal eunuch and the chief eunuch in Ouchi.
The purpose of his coming was to make Wei Guogong stay at home. Xu Huizu's face was uncertain. It was obvious that he was grabbing his weak spot and hitting him hard.
Zhu Di was not afraid of him no matter what. He couldn't cut off his own head without treason, but now he would take his son out to beat him if something happened. It's so shameless.
"This is a bit too much." Xu Huizu said with resentment. He didn't name anyone but they both knew it.
The deed has been done, and this is nothing less than a treasonous act.
Wang Zhong smiled. He couldn't answer this, but he could ask.
"What do you think Your Majesty should do?" Wang Zhong washed the cup and poured Xu Huizu a cup of tea with his own hands and asked.
Xu Huizu fell silent, and he could not answer these words. My son has just been kidnapped.
Although that kid didn't live up to expectations, he was still his own only child. In fact, he was the one who made him suffer.
Xu Qin was carried into the palace gate and went straight to Jiaotai Hall. Looking at this road, Xu Qin felt relieved. I will definitely have to peel off the layers of my skin today and I may not die.
If you go to Wuying Hall, it's business, if you go to Jiaotai Hall, it's a matter of time. But you must peel off the skin.
"Cousin, your posture is so strange." A clear and beautiful voice woke Xu Qin up.
Cousin? That cousin of mine? Xu Qin opened his eyes and took a look, thinking that he could just let me die.
A pair of smart eyes full of curiosity, a delicate and smooth face, and nobility and playfulness between the soft brows and soft lips.
Today I know what the word Zhong Lingyuxiu means. What a beautiful girl. She is so beautiful in her prime. It's a pity that I am in such a miserable state that I wish I could find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.
"I've met Princess Yongxin." The young eunuch quickly saluted.
The little girl nodded reservedly, she was fifteen or sixteen years old. The steps on her head swayed slightly, making her little face more lively and gentle.
"Cousin, I'm sorry that my brother is wearing armor and cannot be polite. I will definitely make amends in person one day." Xu Qin felt his heart beating wildly.
No matter which cousin it is, recognize it first and then talk about it.
I have never seen such a noble and gentle girl in my past life, and she is also so elegant and beautiful. Every smile seems to exude fragrance.
Xu Qin's words made the little girl's face turn red. She couldn't help covering her face with her sleeves. Her body was trembling slightly, and she was obviously smiling happily.
The gaps between the cloak fluctuated, allowing Xu Qin to see her good figure.
Although the clothes of the Ming Dynasty were generous and did not show off his figure, with his vicious eyes and his recent ability to study underwear, he was definitely on a par with Chi Su.
Even if I can't catch up, I'm not far behind. And he shouldn't be short. Later generations calculated that he was about 1.65 meters tall.
"Cousin, since you are wearing armor today, I will pay you a visit at my house another day." The little girl said and walked away accompanied by the palace maid.
Xu Qin obviously heard her voice trembling when she said the word "armor". He obviously wanted to laugh but was afraid to laugh.
I’m here to visit you. Do you want to come to my house? Princess, that princess? It doesn't matter, you are coming to my house anyway, so you need to be well prepared.
He was suddenly sunny, and Zhu Di didn't seem so scary.
In the Jiaotai Hall, Zhu Di was chatting with Xu Jingchang, Duke of Dingguo, and a strong man in his thirties with a round face and deep eyebrows. Xu Qin just thought it looked familiar but couldn't remember it.
"Xu Qin, Duke Dingguo reported that your father called me a rebel. Do you think I am?" Zhu Di came up and threw out a proposition.
Xu Qinxin said that you are 'me' and 'mine' now and then. How should I answer this?
Xu Jingchang, Duke of Dingguo, looked at Xu Qin with a cold smile on his lips and said in his heart, I see where your father and son will run away this time?
You can't escape from Jin Yiwei's prison. As long as you enter, Ji Gang will turn you into heinous traitors. What's the use of alchemy and iron coupons? They can't withstand the serious crime of treason.
Let me see how you answer this life-threatening question.
Xu Qin looked at Zhu Di, and naturally glanced at Duke Dingguo. My heart says that I am kneeling and you are sitting. It’s a beautiful thought, so you should come down too. We, brothers and sisters, come together.
"Back to Your Majesty, my father was tricked by Duke Ding. He deliberately induced my father to say this. The purpose was to use your hand to pull out the incense from Duke Wei's mansion so that his conspiracy could succeed. Your Majesty, please don't He fell into the trap of killing someone with a borrowed knife."
Xu Qin directly used a trick to change the pillars and concepts.
Duke Dingguo's expression changed with fright when he heard this. He quickly glanced at Zhu Di, then slid down from his chair and knelt down directly.
"You are talking nonsense and talking nonsense. It is clear that you, father and son, have different aspirations and are still obsessed with the false emperor Jianwen, so you slander the Holy One..."
Xu Jingchang, Duke of Dingguo, said angrily.
