Originally, all the important ministers in the court wanted to embarrass the prince on this special day and show their identity. They asked such a young prince to take him seriously and show him the respect of his predecessors in the court in the future!
But today Zhao Xuanyi came to the court and defeated all two high-ranking prime ministers, especially the right prime minister. It is estimated that his whole family will not be safe! This thunderous method frightened some officials so much that they dared not speak!
Especially the party members of Zhu Zhelin's lineage, seeing that the Right Prime Minister was bullied like this by Zhao Xuanyi, they naturally did not dare to speak, thinking that if a good man does not suffer the immediate disadvantages, it is better not to get into trouble!
Zhao Xuanyi stood in the main hall and turned around to inspect the court hall. When he saw that no one dared to cause trouble again, he felt relieved. Then some ministers came forward one after another and reported all the important matters that needed to be resolved. Zhu Wenyu also gave some orders!
The morning court ended like this. After the morning court, Zhu Wenyu did not let Zhao Xuanyi leave, but took him directly to his main hall. After entering the Wende Hall, Zhao Xuanyi saw Zhu Yuejun also coming, and Zhu Wenyu was sitting on his position, while Zhu Yuejun and Zhao Xuanyi were sitting on their own small tables on the left and right!
"Nanzhu, order someone to bring breakfast!" Zhu Yuejun said.
"Yes!" Nan Zhu hurriedly sent the order. There was not much time, and some breakfast was brought up by the palace maid!
Zhao Xuanyi looked down and saw fresh fish porridge, a vegetable, a mutton, and a plate of chicken. He thought that this royal food was different! It’s much better than what I eat at home!
Zhu Wenyu looked at Zhao Xuanyi, "My lord, you came too soon this time. Otherwise, I don't know what I would have been forced into by those old ministers!"
Zhao Xuanyi's face was not so relaxed, and he was not polite to Zhu Wenyu and Zhu Yuejun. He directly picked up the bowl and started eating. "Prince, the current situation is not so optimistic. King Yong'an's army is still outside the city. I don't know when they will attack." Now, all I can do is delay as long as possible. When the Japanese border guards and Far Eastern Army come back, I won’t be afraid anymore. By then our military strength will surpass him, and we can fight no matter what!"
When Zhu Yuejun saw Zhao Xuanyi devouring the food, he couldn't help but cough lightly, "Don't worry, my lord, no one will compete with you!"
"No, things outside the city are still unstable. If I finish eating as soon as possible and have to leave the town to guard, I won't be polite to the eldest princess and the prince!" After Zhao Xuanyi said that, he picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth to eat!
When Zhu Yuejun and Zhu Wenyu heard what Zhao Xuanyi said, they didn't say anything. They both knew that Zhao Xuanyi was busy both internally and externally. "King Yong'an still has heavy troops in his hands, why doesn't he attack our capital?" Zhu Wenyu asked.
"I guess he is waiting for the attitude of others. Now King Taikang has made a choice to let Da... lead troops to protect the capital. And the only one who has not yet expressed his stance is King Yongle. I guess King Yongan will definitely give King Yongle wrote or sent a message, after all, he knew in his heart that it is difficult to sing a single palm!"
"But... before he passed away, my father had issued an imperial edict to marry Zhu Qing to me!"
【puff……! 】Zhao Xuanyi spit out a mouthful of porridge, "Ahem...what did you say? The emperor granted you a marriage? Zhu Qing... Princess Yongle?"
"Yes!" Zhu Wenyu nodded and said.
"..." Zhao Xuanyi didn't react for a long time. He was dumbfounded and asked, "What does the emperor mean by this?" Will Zhu Qing be married to Zhu Wenyu? It's obviously delicious. It can win over a prince, and it can also increase the strength behind Zhu Wenyu. At least now it seems that King Yong'an must have no other prince to cooperate with!
But the question is? King Yongle is not a fuel-efficient lamp either! At least Zhao Xuanyi didn't believe him at all. What role was Li Wenzhou back then? How deep is Zhu Qing's city? I knew very well in my heart that if Zhu Wenyu and Zhu Qing got married, wouldn't this be inviting a wolf into the house?
"this……?"
Just as Zhao Xuanyi was about to speak, Zhu Yuejun coughed lightly, "This is the emperor's will during his lifetime. I'm sure King Yongle will not object!"
When Zhao Xuanyi heard Zhu Yuejun's words, he instantly understood. Zhu Yuejun was reminding himself that this was the emperor's imperial edict and he could not doubt it. If he said anything else, he would be disrespectful to the emperor.
!
But this news made Zhao Xuanyi very entangled, because no matter how he thought it was not good news, at least he didn't want to hear the result! But it’s not something you can decide on!
"Has this imperial decree been spread?" Zhao Xuanyi asked.
"Not yet. I have been performing rituals for the emperor in secret for the past few days, and I also have to prepare for the crown prince's coronation ceremony, so I haven't had the chance yet!"
"Then don't spread it out yet. Even the civil and military officials in the court must not leave the capital. No! No one is allowed to leave the capital now! If this news gets out, there may be a big disaster!" Zhao Xuanyi said.
"How do you say this?" Zhu Wenyu asked.
"At present, King Yong'an still has the strength to fight. He is waiting for an opportunity at this moment. If he knows that the emperor has given Zhu Qing a marriage to you at this moment, he will know that he has no reinforcements, and he is the only one among the three princes. I'm alone, I'm afraid he'll jump over the wall!"
When Zhu Yuejun and Zhu Wenyu heard Zhao Xuanyi's words, they also nodded, indicating that they agreed with Zhao Xuanyi's ideas! Zhao Xuanyi continued to eat quickly, eating all the food in a few mouthfuls, and then stood up and saluted, "Prince, eldest princess, I have eaten. It is not peaceful outside the city now, so I went to guard it. If anything happens, please send troops to contact Wei immediately." Please contact me!"
"Your Majesty, you have worked hard!" Zhu Wenyu said.
Zhao Xuanyi nodded slightly and then walked out. Zhu Yuejun looked at Zhao Xuanyi's leaving figure and wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't. She turned to Nan Zhu and said, "Send the Duke out of the palace!"
"Yes!" Nan Zhu hurriedly caught up with Zhao Xuanyi and led Zhao Xuanyi outside the palace!
Zhu Wenyu looked at Zhu Yuejun, "Princess, now King Yong'an is watching covetously outside, and the important ministers in the court want to intimidate him, should we take action?"
"What does the prince mean?" Zhu Yuejun asked.
"Kill the chicken to scare the monkey!"
After hearing this, Zhu Yuejun frowned slightly, and then breathed out, "The prince's idea is good, but...who should I kill? This person must have an identity. If killing him doesn't work, then show it to those people." joke!"
"The eldest princess is absolutely right! So we must think carefully about this person!" After Zhu Wenyu finished speaking, he lowered his head and started thinking seriously!
Zhao Xuanyi followed Nan Zhu and walked out of the palace. Along the way, Zhao Xuanyi saw that many of the guards in the palace were Qilin guards. When these Qilin guards saw Zhao Xuanyi, they nodded and said hello, and Zhao Xuanyi responded!
"Why did Qilin Guard fall into the palace?"
"The emperor was seriously ill a while ago, and the eldest princess was afraid that the guards in the palace might be tricked by the enemy, so she changed all the guards inside and outside the Wanfu Palace! The Qilin Guards are more reassuring!" Nanzhu said.
Zhao Xuanyi laughed after hearing this, "The eldest princess still has foresight! By the way, has there been any movement in the palace recently?"
Nan Zhu looked around, then came to Zhao Xuanyi and whispered, "On the surface, it seems like usual, everyone in the palace is sad and grieving because of the emperor's death. In fact, the harem is a bit chaotic, and some favored concubines are thinking about it now." The way out from now on is a bit confusing!”
After Zhao Xuanyi heard this, he was really surprised, "The emperor is no longer here, what will happen to the concubines?"
"This? Most of them will stay in the palace and grow old alone, but they will be sent to a fixed place. The palaces where they live will be freed up for the new emperor's concubines to live in, and some can be guarded. The imperial mausoleum, and some... burials!"
After Zhao Xuanyi heard this, he couldn't help but feel horrified. So the burial was true? How cruel that so many young and beautiful concubines were buried alive! But the rest are not much better, they end up alone, what a waste of time! ap.
After walking out of the palace, Zhao Xuanyi looked at Nan Zhu, "If there is anything urgent, ask the Qilin Guards to come directly out of the city to find me. I can't come to the morning court every day, but if anyone dares to cause trouble, you must tell me!"
"Yes! I have one more thing to ask the Duke!"
"you say!"
"Do you really want to take the son and grandson of the right minister... to the battlefield?"
"Definitely! His master is not the prince or the eldest princess. Although I can't kill him,
But I have to give him some color and show him off. There is a price to pay for pretending to be a brat in front of me! "After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, he got on his horse and turned to look at Shen Wei, "Let's go!"
"Yes!" Shen Wei swung the reins and escorted Zhao Xuanyi away quickly. The two of them rode horses and ran wildly on the streets of the capital. If it were normal, the streets of the capital would have banned riding horses in the city, but now there is no time to care about this, and the roads in the capital are so complicated. Go up, now you can’t see the common people at all!
"Young Master, do you want to go home and see the ladies?" Shen Wei asked thoughtfully.
After Zhao Xuanyi heard this, he shook his head, "I'm not going back. I'll wait until the things outside are resolved! By the way, when I get back to the military camp, I will immediately ask the Qilin Guards to go to the Right Prime Minister's house and capture his son and grandson on the battlefield." superior!"
"yes!"
At this moment, Huang Ning was anxiously running around at home. He originally wanted to take the opportunity to show his loyalty and praise the third prince, but who knew that Zhao Xuanyi would suddenly appear in the court? When he came up, he scolded himself so much that he even made Qi Lianzhong faint with anger!
Now all the civil and military officials in the court are extremely afraid of Zhao Xuanyi. Now it is estimated that no one dares to anger Zhao Xuanyi. He wants to take his son and grandson to the battlefield. Is this true or false? What can I do myself?
The third prince! Yes, I am the third prince's son. At this moment, I have no other choice but to ask the third prince for help! "Someone! Prepare a car for me!"
"yes!"
Huang Ning rode a carriage directly to Prince Furui's Mansion. After arriving at the door of the palace, Halo Knocked on the door immediately. When a servant opened the door and saw Huang Ning, he immediately saluted, "It's the Right Prime Minister!"
"It's me. Is the prince at home? I have something important to report!" Huang Ning said with a smile on his face.
"Well...unfortunately, the prince is not at home at the moment!"
"Not at home?" Huang Ning's eyes widened in surprise. "Where has the prince gone?"
The servant frowned slightly, "Right Prime Minister, I don't know!"
When Huang Ning looked at it, he realized that he had talked too much and he shouldn't ask about the whereabouts of the prince casually. "I wonder when the prince will come back?"
"Even the little ones don't know!"
"This...?" Huang Ning was worried, thinking what should he do? If Zhu Zhelin doesn't help him and Zhao Xuanyi comes for real, what will he do at this time? It's hard to call anyone for help at this moment. The key is that no one dares to anger Zhao Xuanyi now!
Zhao Xuanyi returned to the position. After a day's rest, the Qilin Guards had almost recovered. Zhao Xuanyi directly went to Tang Tianli and said, "Tang Tianli, I have something to do with you!"
"My lord, do we want to attack?"
"No rush, if you have other things to do now, go to the home of Right Minister Huang Ning immediately. Capture their sons and grandsons and bring them to the battlefield to fight!"
"Who? Right Prime Minister?" Tang Tianli asked.
"That's right, I estimate that by then, some of them will be pretending to be sick, and some of them will die. You're welcome. As long as there is a breath in the carriages that are preparing to pull food, they will be pulled to the battlefield by me. Even if they are used as backers, they will be given to me. I died on the battlefield!"
"Understood!" Tang Tianli shouted loudly.
"Remember, all you need to say is that the country needs them and they are defending the country. If they don't come, ask them, can they still defend the country?"
"Yes!" Tang Tianli immediately mobilized a hundred Qilin Guards and rushed to the capital with carriages!
After seeing this, Shen Wei raised his thumb and said, "Young Master, what should we do next?"
