In the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Qizhen hated one person the most, and that was Xu Youzhen.
That night he ran back from Mongolia and was coaxed into a small courtyard by the eunuch, where he was caught.
In the yard, he met Xu Youzhen.
This was the person that he still thought about day and night and kept in his heart.
The man who became the source of his own nightmares.
"You are worthy of the soldiers who died on the battlefield for you, and worthy of the important ministers of the dynasty. In the dead of night, will you feel guilty for these soldiers and these important ministers?"
"But you are like a bereaved dog, living in panic and just sneaking back. You still want my emperor to give up the throne to you."
"Are you worthy? You are not worthy. When I was in the Yingwu Hall, I, Xu Youzhen, knelt in front of the Empress Dowager and said, if I, Xu Youzhen, do not die, you, Zhu Qizhen, will never be able to return to the capital. I will not allow anyone to It is not okay to insult our emperor, even his father."
This was the first time in my life that I was scolded by someone by name, and scolded so harshly that I had nothing to say, and almost made me believe that I was a fool.
Whenever he thinks of Xu Youzhen, he can't sleep, his chest feels tight and his head feels a little dizzy...
"Why him? There are so many ministers in the court. Why did my eldest son let Xu Youzhen come?" Zhu Qizhen almost finished speaking through gritted teeth.
"Your Majesty has great faith in the Yushi of Xudu, and the Yushi of Xudu is now the Minister of Rites and the Yushi of Zuodu."
"Such a villain can be ranked here. It's really a treacherous minister, and the country is ruined." Zhu Qizhen said viciously.
It seems that my son is still young and ignorant, without the demeanor of a wise king or the knowledge of people.
I remember when I was sitting on the throne, relying on Wang Zhen internally and externally, I managed the country in an orderly manner, the people lived a prosperous life, and the majesty of the Ming Dynasty spread far and wide...
If you are hiding in the wild, you will be trapped here.
What should Daming do...
What should the people do...
What should we do with our ancestors...
"Your Majesty, although Xu Du Yushi likes to play some tricks, calling him a traitor is a bit too much. Now, Xu Du Yushi has an excellent reputation. After returning from disaster relief, Your Majesty has another reward and allows him to visit Mongolia. The Supreme Emperor is impeccable." Leng Kuang said truthfully.
Leng Kuang's words made him find the key point.
"But I'm not in Mongolia, I'm in the Ming Dynasty. Why go to Mongolia to watch the wind blow on the grass and see cattle and sheep?" Zhu Qizhen said angrily.
"Your Majesty, why don't you understand? It doesn't matter whether you are in Mongolia or not. What is important is that His Majesty thinks you are in Mongolia."
"But, you are all deceiving the emperor. You have violated the national law." Zhu Qizhen became smarter and instantly caught the error in Leng Kuang's words.
"Your Majesty, we did not deceive the emperor. We acted according to the order and cannot be regarded as deceiving the emperor."
"Impossible, you said that my son doesn't know that I'm back, whose order can you follow..." At this point, Zhu Qizhen stopped talking.
Could it be, could it be the Queen Mother’s will?
Zhu Qizhen calmed down, and then he sighed heavily.
"Xu Youzhen came to see me. Will my mother also know about it?"
"Your Majesty must obtain the consent of the Empress Dowager before Xu Youzhen can set off." Leng Kuang said slowly.
After Zhu Qizhen heard this, he lamented in his heart: Mother, you are so cruel...
…………
Capital.
Today, Zhu Jianshen first gave a banquet and distributed red envelopes (treasure notes) to everyone, and the officials expressed gratitude.
After the ceremony, Zhu Jianshen immediately went to the palace of the Empress Dowager.
While eating, they talked.
Empress Dowager Sun looked at Zhu Jianshen lovingly.
"Grandma Huang, I want the censor of Xudu to go to Mongolia to see my father. Do you agree?"
After hearing Zhu Jianshen's words, Empress Dowager Sun's expression changed.
After thinking for a while, she said: "Your Majesty is interested, but for such a big matter, we still have to discuss it with the minister. If Yu Taibao agrees, that's fine."
Just as Zhu Jianshen expected, Empress Dowager Sun would not reject herself.
What she is doing now is like abandoning her own son. How could she have the heart to let her grandson abandon his father too?
"Grandma Huang, do you think my father will be happy to see me?" Although Zhu Jianshen said this, he knew in his heart that he was afraid that his father would regret giving birth to him now. If he had known better, he would have ejaculated...
"He will definitely be happy. However, Your Majesty, now is not the time for you to meet him. Only when Your Majesty grows up, gets married, and has a son, can you go see your father." Empress Dowager Sun has been escorted by Yu Qian and others. Persuasion and brainwashing were successful.
She also made a plan. If her body could not bear it, she would let Zhu Qizhen enter the capital secretly, but she could not alarm Zhu Jianshen. After seeing her son, she would send him back...
When Zhu Jianshen heard this, the smile on his face gradually faded, and then he nodded heavily.
Zhu Jianshen is very good at following the trend.
After leaving the Empress Dowager, Zhu Jianshen took Zhang Bao and strolled back to Qianqing Palace.
After dinner, it’s okay, I’ll take a walk...
Zhu Jianshen also wanted Yu Qian to have a good year, so he didn't bother him at this juncture. Zhu Jianshen also knew very well that Xu Youzhen might have gone to Yu Qian to discuss countermeasures.
Zhu Jianshen was about to return to the palace, listen to the sound of firecrackers in the distance, and then fall asleep, but Zhan Yang, who had returned from North Korea, returned to the capital at this time.
Like Xu Youzhen, she also ran to the palace gate to ask for a see.
The soldiers guarding the palace gate sighed as they looked at the officials competing with each other. Those who are celebrating the New Year don't know why your wife and children are hot on the bed when you go home. Why are you running into the palace one by one? Your Majesty also needs to rest. I have to celebrate the New Year too, I really have no sense of public morality.
When Zhu Jianshen had just returned to Qianqing Palace, a young eunuch came to inform him.
Zhang Bao looked troubled.
"Your Majesty, why don't we go to Wuying Palace? Foreign ministers can't come to Qianqing Palace today." Zhang Bao said quickly.
Zhu Jianshen didn't care about Zhang Bao's taboo. He nodded and said: "Okay, let's arrange it in the Yingwu Hall. By the way, since Zhan Yang is back, you can also call Xu Youzhen here and let the two of them deal with North Korea well." Let’s review the matter.”
Zhang Bao was very surprised when he heard a new term mentioned by Zhu Jianshen.
"Your Majesty, what is a review?"
"Just let the two of them work out how to defeat North Korea."
Zhang Bao was confused when he heard this. He had nothing to ask about North Korea, but what did he mean by asking about it?
Although he didn't understand, he was unambiguous about the matter. He immediately sent someone to find Xu Youzhen, and then asked the eunuch to quickly go to Yingwu Hall to have a good rest.
The road your Majesty is going to walk must not be frozen, and the dragon couch your Majesty is going to sit on must be heated first.
After Zhu Jianshen waited for a while in Qianqing Palace, he went to Yingwu Palace.
Zhu Jianshen walked straight ahead with his little hands behind his back.
Zhang Bao walked behind Zhu Jianshen, half-bowing the whole time.
In the Hall of Valor.
Zhan Yang stood among them, and soon Zhang Bao's voice came: "Your Majesty is here."
Zhan Yang hurriedly faced the entrance of the palace.
After looking at Zhu Jianshen's figure, Zhan Yang saluted and said: "I have met your majesty, Zhan Yang. Long live your majesty."
Zhu Jianshen smiled softly: "It's a pity that Minister Zhan didn't make it to the banquet. Why don't you go home first and put everything behind?"
"I don't dare. The North Korean matter is a serious matter. I must present it to His Majesty as soon as possible before I can rest assured."
Zhu Jianshen nodded and walked towards Long Tao.
"Give me a seat for Mr. Zhan." With that said, Zhu Jianshen sat on the dragon's roof.
It's a bit hot on the butt...
However, Zhu Jianshen did not get up, because he knew that if he did, the little palace maid who came to heat the room would definitely be punished. At that moment, he gently propped it up with his hand. His Majesty's small movement did not attract Zhang Bao's attention.
A young eunuch brought a chair and placed it behind Zhan Yang.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zhan Yang sat down after saying that.
"What did you gain from this trip to North Korea?"
"Your Majesty, as the censor of Xudu said, no one in Hancheng can hold up the top beam, and Hancheng is in danger."
After Zhu Jianshen listened, he paused for a moment. He didn't pay much attention to this matter. Even though there were no generals who could fight or talents who could govern the country, they controlled 80% of North Korea's population. If Pyongyang wanted to invade Seoul, it would be very difficult. Disaster.
What's more, he also arranged for Zhao Fu to be in Seoul to participate in military affairs from time to time, which was double insurance.
"Has the gold and silver that Pyongyang said been confirmed?"
"It has been confirmed, Your Majesty, that this is indeed the case. I asked Lord Jincheng, Cheng Sanwen and others, and they all responded in this way."
"You told Mr. Jincheng that Pyongyang wanted to use this money in exchange for Ming Dynasty's support. How did he react?"
Zhan Yang's face turned slightly gloomy.
"Your Majesty, he didn't panic, he even laughed out loud."
Zhu Jianshen was a little stunned. Is this a great talent?
No, this is stupid...
"Ignore him. Since this matter is indeed happening in Pyongyang, let Liaodong send these silver coins to me."
"Your Majesty wants Wu Yanghou to send troops."
"No, the leader of North Korea disrespects Ming Dynasty. I am very angry. I want to teach them a lesson and let the successors of North Korea understand that their throne was given to them by Ming Dynasty. If Ming Dynasty wants to give it to others, it can be done. .”
"Your Majesty is holy."
At this time, Xu Youzhen walked into the Yingwu Hall in a panic, and first bowed to Zhu Jian to pay New Year's greetings.
Zhan Yang, who was standing aside, was shocked when he heard this. I seemed to have forgotten to say a New Year's greeting to His Majesty just now.
To be a good person, you still need to look at the censor of Xudu, who is transparent.
Zhan Yang cupped his hands towards Xu Youzhen who stood up and said, "Censor of Xudu, I haven't seen you for a long time and I miss you very much."
"Shilang Zhan, I miss you too..."
After the two of them finished talking, you looked at me and I looked at you, unwilling to look away.
Zhu Jian looked deeply, could this be the expression of affection and expression of affection between eyebrows...
What did they do together in North Korea? How could their relationship develop so quickly?
I have never heard that Xu Youzhen is as good as Long Yang. Could it be that he is really a crook...
Thinking of this, Zhu Jianshen got goosebumps all over his body and coughed lightly.
The two of them gave up.
"Censor of Xudu, I came to see you. I didn't disturb your reunion with your family."
Because after Xu Youzhen came back from Qinyang Mansion, she sneaked into Park Ningmei's room for several nights in a row, and was caught by his wife again.
When the young eunuch went to the Xu Mansion, Pu Ningmei and Xu Youzhen were thinking about their mistakes.
It can be said that Zhu Jianshen's summons also saved Xu Youzhen.
"Your Majesty, no matter when and where, whatever I am doing, as soon as I hear your Majesty's call, I will stop immediately and rush to the imperial court to listen to the order."
Zhu Jianshen nodded with satisfaction.
"I haven't told you about the Korean affairs in the past two days. Now I'll let Mr. Zhan tell you in detail. I also want to hear the opinions and thoughts of Xu Du Yushi."
Zhu Jianshen gave Zhan Yang a chance to perform, which made Zhan Yang a little excited to have an in-depth exchange with Xu Du Yushi in front of His Majesty.
It makes me excited just thinking about it......
