Peking Mansion!
A gloomy cloud!
Because not long ago, King Yan Zhu Di suddenly fell ill!
It can't be said that it was sudden, but the trouble was caused by Zhu Gaoxu, the second son of Prince Yan!
That Zhu Gaoxu innocently killed civilians and also killed Yi Cheng in Zhuozhou, so he had several innocent souls on his hands.
As a result, His Majesty the Emperor learned of this matter, and he was furious and sent Bao Zhao, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, to Peiping in person to arrest the criminal Zhu Gaoxu!
He was the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, a high-ranking official in the court, and his status was no less generous than that of King Zhu Di of Yan!
After King Zhu Di of Yan heard the news, he was so angry that he suffered from a secret physical illness and fell ill.
Due to the deliberate publicity of this incident, it quickly spread throughout the entire Beiping Mansion and became a topic of conversation among common people and scholars after dinner.
Jin Zhong was dressed in a long gown and Dao Yan was dressed in black. They found a restaurant and sat down quietly.
It's dinner time now, and the restaurant is doing a booming business, so there are a lot of customers coming and going.
Soon someone spoke in a lowered voice, looking mysterious.
"Hey, have you heard? Our Prince Yan in Peiping is going to be in trouble!"
"Who doesn't know about this? It has already been spread!"
"It's pitiful that Prince Yan has great military exploits and is a truly heroic man, but he ended up giving birth to a rebellious son like Zhu Gaoxu!"
"Who says it isn't?"
The more people talked, the more excited they became, and some even bolder people began to curse Zhu Gaoxu angrily.
Jin Zhong glanced at it and suddenly understood.
"They are all scholars. They like to talk loudly and criticize the current ills!"
"Although I am a scholar, I don't know how to be cautious. I don't understand the principle that misfortunes come from my mouth. It is difficult to achieve great things!"
Monk Dao Yan did not say anything. He had no interest in these high-spirited scholars.
Until one scholar spoke up and pointed his finger at the new emperor who had just ascended the throne.
"Everyone, if you ask me to say that the emperor is really too strict."
"Prince Yan has been guarding the border for the imperial court for so many years. There is no merit but hard work, right?"
"The imperial court directly sent people to arrest people and question the Yan Palace. Such behavior is really chilling!"
"What do you know?" one person answered, "The imperial court has always intended to cut down the vassals, and the King of Zhou and the King of Qi are the best examples!"
"Hiss...Then Prince Yan's Mansion is doomed this time!"
"Pity Prince Yan for his illustrious reputation throughout his life!"
Hearing these discussions, Monk Daoyan had a smile on his face.
Jin Zhong looked at him suspiciously, "Master, did you arrange this?"
"The prince is sick, but at least let the people know why he is sick!"
"As long as the people of Beiping Mansion complain about the prince, even if Bao Zhao guesses that the prince is pretending to be ill, he will not dare to continue to persecute Prince Yan's Mansion."
Monk Dao Yan nodded and directly stated the purpose.
Jin Zhong narrowed his eyes and accepted this strategy.
"But Bao Zhao has a strong temperament, wears cloth clothes and linen shoes, and is known for his frugality. It is not easy to hide such a person from him!"
"Zhu Yunwen is a wise man and sent Bao Zhao directly to get him."
Monk Daoyan was noncommittal when he heard the words, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
"So we need to add more fire!"
"Your Majesty has been very kind to the people of Peiping these years by guarding the enemy and guarding the border!"
"The court can forget these achievements and kindness, and the prince can not mention them, but the people of Beiping Mansion cannot forget them!"
The black-clothed monk also understood that Bao Zhao was not a simple person and could be fooled easily. That was impossible.
But when the Prince of Yan's palace occupies the name of righteousness, and the Prince of Yan is critically ill, how can you force him to do so?
The rightful name belongs to King Yan, not to you Baozhao, let alone the court!
Prince Yan's Mansion, bedroom.
As soon as Zhu Gaochi entered the door, he smelled the pungent smell of medicine, which made him frown.
Soon he saw his father, with a pale face, leaning weakly on the soft couch.
"Father, you are..."
Zhu Di waved his hand to stop Zhu Gaoxu from speaking, and then dismissed all the palace servants.
It wasn't until they were the only two people left in the room that they suddenly sat upright.
"Of course you have to do the whole show!"
"Even if I can't hide it from Bao Zhao, I can't let him see the flaw easily!"
Zhu Gaochi smiled knowingly, "Then Father called me here..."
"There is news from the secret guard that Su Yang is starting to act stupid!"
"Su Yang?" Zhu Gaochi was stunned when he heard this, "What did he do?"
Zhu Di's expression became quite strange, and he cursed with some hatred.
"I don't know why this kid is so crazy. He wants to downgrade his household registration from a farmer to a merchant, and then take Xiaowan to Jiangnan!"
Zhu Gaochi was dumbfounded, smiled bitterly and shook his head.
That’s really stupid!
As long as a merchant has such a lowly status, not only will he be looked down upon and despised by others in his life, but his descendants will also be unable to hold their heads high!
Then Su Yang was so good, why did he go crazy?
After thinking about it, a bright light flashed in Zhu Gaochi's mind.
He suddenly remembered that when he saw Su Yang for the first time, he was shouting to take his wife and run away!
"Dad, I understand, this guy Su Yang just interrupted his escape!"
"He has long been sure that the Yan Palace will raise troops, so he wants to take Xiaowan to hide in Jiangnan!"
"Run away?" Zhu Di glared and said angrily: "How dare he! I won't break his legs!"
Zhu Di was very resistant to this sudden appearance of his son-in-law!
However, the dignified Prince Yan has already accepted this son-in-law's gold and silver, so even if he was unwilling in his heart, Zhu Di could only hold his nose and admit it.
What's more, after that, Su Yang helped the Yan Palace twice, three times including the salt production process. Zhu Di accepted Su Yang from the bottom of his heart.
After helping out three times, Zhu Di also clearly realized that his cheap son-in-law was not simple, and was most likely a peerless genius!
Such a person was still his son-in-law, how could Zhu Di be willing to let him go?
I am preparing for a rebellion in full swing, and I am worried that there are no talents to help me. As my son-in-law, Zhu Di, you don't want to do your part for the palace, but want to run away?
Break your dog legs!
"Father, Su Yang does have an astonishing talent, but we must not let him go!"
Zhu Gaochi spoke hurriedly and sold Su Yang regardless of morality.
In fact, Zhu Gaochi was a gentle and humble gentleman, and he should not have done such a thing of not keeping his promise and breaking his promise.
However, after two contacts, Zhu Gaochi was very sure that Su Yang's talent was no less than that of Master Dao Yan. He was a rare talent that could be encountered but not sought. Now that Prince Yan's palace was in dire straits, he was worried that there would be no talented people to help him, so Zhu Gaochi had no choice but to go against his will. Heart, keep Su Yang in Beiping Mansion and be used by King Zhu Di of Yan!
Zhu Di grinned, not understanding what his boss meant.
"Do not worry!"
"I will give them a road guide!"
"But it's not the way to Jiangnan, but the way to Peiping!"
"When Su Yang comes to Peiping, I will go and see for myself what kind of peerless genius he is who dares to call me worse than a pig or a dog!"
Zhu Di originally did not plan to take Xiaowan back to Peiping, and did not want her to get involved in these scandalous things.
However, Su Yang took action three times in a row to resolve the crisis in Prince Yan's Mansion, which also made Zhu Di change his mind.
Now is the time when Prince Yan's palace is in great danger. How can we leave a peerless talent unused?
Zhu Gaochi smiled upon hearing this, showing a treacherous smile.
Su Yang, Su Yang, you can't run away this time!
