Zhu Di ordered his servants to call his four important right-hand men. Originally, everyone gathered in the secret room to wait for His Highness King Yan to discuss the recruitment arrangements. However, they did not wait until His Highness King Yan came back. Instead, they waited. King Yan asked them to go to the hall.
Several people did not dare to neglect and walked out of the secret room one after another.
When the four of them came outside the hall, Yao Guangxiao suddenly stared at the back of a person in the hall and stopped moving forward as if he had seen a ghost.
"Master Dao Yan, what's wrong with you?" Zhang Yu asked curiously when he saw Yao Guangxiao's changed expression.
Yao Guangxiao said nothing, staring at Zhu Yuanzhang's back and breaking into a cold sweat. Although Yao Guangxiao is a monk, he is an ambitious and ambitious monk. He took a liking to King Yan at a glance and assisted King Yan wholeheartedly. This is because he saw very early that King Yan would have the opportunity to overthrow the world. Yao Guangxiao was a very good person. Arrogant people, but even the most arrogant people also have fear in their hearts. Yao Guangxiao did not dare to make any big moves when Zhu Yuanzhang was alive, because Emperor Hongwu was someone he did not dare to provoke, but what did he see now? Even though it was just a back figure, Yao Guangxiao was sure that he would not mistake the familiar back figure, but all this overturned Yao Guangxiao's understanding. It was obvious that Emperor Hongwu had died, so why did he come back to life.
Seeing that Yao Guangxiao ignored him, Zhang Yu shook his head and continued to walk into the hall. After entering, Zhang Yu vaguely saw something wrong.
Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and Zhu Bai, the king of Xiang, actually stood on both sides of another person. This made Zhang Yu puzzled. Who could be the person who could make the two princes so respectful?
At this time, except for Yao Guangxiao, the other three people had not realized the seriousness of the matter. Instead, after learning about the secret arrival of King Xiang, they all thought that King Xiang decided to cooperate with King Yan, which made them more worried about the future. Some confidence.
"Master Dao Yan, I once heard that you have profound Taoist skills and can do calculations and calculations. I wonder if you can calculate a hexagram for me today?" No one spoke in the hall. Zhao Changge glanced at Yao Guangxiao, who was standing at the door and did not come in, and asked. road.
No one noticed that Yao Guangxiao's back was completely soaked in cold sweat at this time. Even though Zhu Yuanzhang did not turn around, Yao Guangxiao was very sure that he had not recognized the wrong person, because just a back view could put him under so much pressure. Zhu Yuanzhang is the only person in this world.
Although Yao Guangxiao did not know Zhao Changge, but Zhao Changge could stand beside Zhu Yuanzhang, Yao Guangxiao knew that this person must not be simple.
He put his hands together and saluted, then raised his head and stared at Zhao Changge for a long time. The more he looked at the expression on his face, the more surprised he became. It wasn't until Yao Guangxiao was covered in cold sweat that he smiled bitterly and said apologetically: "I don't do enough, and the donor seems to be enveloped." There is a layer of fog that I can’t see through.”
"Hmph, no one can calculate the secrets of heaven. They are all just pretending to be gods and ghosts." Zhu Yuanzhang turned around as he spoke. He did not believe in ghosts and gods, only believed in himself, and he was even more dismissive of these quacks and sorcerers.
Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang's face, not only Yao Guangxiao recognized him, the other three people all kneeled on the ground subconsciously as if they had seen a ghost.
"I'll see you, Your Majesty!" No one thought about why Emperor Hongwu appeared here despite his death, because their minds were now blank. Only the subconscious fear of Emperor Hongwu Zhu Yuanzhang drove them to kneel down immediately.
"Lao Zhu, don't underestimate this monk. Although I don't know if he can really count, but he is not a simple person. In later generations, many people call him a demon monk. The demon monk with the skill of slaying dragons, and the fact that King Zhu Di of Yan could successfully overthrow Zhu Yunzhen, this old monk played a huge role. After King Zhu Di of Yan came to the throne, this old monk was called the prime minister in black by many people."
When Zhu Di heard Zhao Changge say that he would successfully rebel in the future and ascend the throne as emperor, he became excited. However, when he saw his father staring at him with a half-smile, Zhu Di immediately held back his vigilance. He smiled, but he couldn't help but the upturned corners of his mouth still betrayed his mood.
At this time, Yao Guangxiao had only one thought in his mind: Old monk, my life is over.
"Okay, okay, we have worked hard to abolish the prime minister system, and you have created a prime minister in black. You are deliberately going against us again, right?" Zhu Yuanzhang also had a bad temper. He didn't understand the situation at all and directly The jade belt in his hand was drawn to Zhu Di.
Zhu Di was completely stunned. What, what the prime minister in black has to do with me. I don’t know anything now.
Zhang Yu and others looked at Zhao Changge in shock at this time. Although they could not believe what Zhao Changge said about the future, they were amazed that this young man actually spoke to Emperor Hongwu about Lao Zhu. The key is that His Majesty is not angry yet. This young man Could it be that I am His Majesty’s illegitimate son? This kind of treatment would be no more than this even if Prince Yiwen was still alive.
"Old Zhu, you have misunderstood. The prime minister in black is not the real prime minister, but because Yao Guangxiao, the future king, has been the most trusted adviser of King Yan after he ascended the throne. In addition, he wears black monk clothes, so he is called The prime minister in black."
Lao Zhu snorted coldly, not feeling embarrassed because he hit the wrong Zhu Di.
Zhu Di covered his wound and stared at Zhao Changge with resentful eyes, as if to say why didn't you explain earlier.
"Lao Zhu, you don't know that this monk has the skill of slaying dragons and is one of the few successful political monks. As early as the fifteenth year of Hongwu, after Queen Ma passed away, you summoned monks to pray for Queen Ma. It was this time that Yao Guangxiao met King Yan Zhu Di, and saw at a glance that King Yan Zhu Di was a person who could realize his ambitions, he said to King Yan Zhu Di on the spot, I can give you a white hat, tsk tsk tsk, you have such a vision, and it was later proven that Yao Guangxiao His dragon-slaying skills really succeeded in slaying the real dragon Zhu Yunwen, which shows Yao Guangxiao's ability."
"Fart, does Zhu Yunwen, a stinky boy, deserve to be called a real dragon?" Zhu Yuanzhang said unconvinced, and then stared at Zhu Di with his eyes: "So, as early as the fifteenth year of Hongwu, this monk encouraged you Do you have the ambition to rebel?"
In Zhu Yuanzhang's view, Zhu Di would rebel all because of Yao Guangxiao's instigation. Otherwise, how could his son do such a rebellious thing as rebellion?
But he also didn't want to think about how Zhu Di could have kept Yao Guangxiao if he had no ambition.
Under Zhu Yuanzhang's angry eyes, Zhu Di and Yao Guangxiao both knelt on the ground, not even daring to defend themselves.
