Both father and son ate simple dishes, because the old father had been preparing them for a long time. At this time, Zhu Qizhen almost vomited out when he smelled the fishy smell.
Therefore, all the food on the table is green vegetables and tofu, without any fat or meat at all.
Even so, the two father and son also ate with gusto.
A gentleman eats without saying a word.
And Lao Zhu and Xiao Zhu are obviously not gentlemen.
While eating, they talked. ,
Originally, they were talking about interesting experiences along the way, and the atmosphere was very harmonious. But after a while, Zhu Qizhen started talking about something slightly sensitive.
"Go back quickly. It's been a year since I came out. I really miss my great grandson."
"In four or five days, when Li Xian and others catch up, we will continue to set off. However, my father will have to wait for a while..."
We have already arrived in Jinan. If we continue to advance at a high speed below, Zhu Jianshen will be able to return to Beijing in less than fifteen days. However, Zhu Qizhen is traveling lightly, so his speed is faster than Zhu Jianshen, even if it is Zhu Jianshen. I am less wary of my father, but I don't want him to arrive in Beijing first.
Zhu Qizhen couldn't feel Zhu Jianshen's concerns at all.
He said to himself: "You are the emperor, and you wait for your ministers, but I am no longer the emperor. Waiting here feels a little uncomfortable. Why don't we set off first? After returning to Beijing, I will also Return to Nangong honestly."
After Zhu Jianshen heard this, his first thought was that there was no three hundred taels of silver here.
He wanted to return to Beijing earlier than himself. What did he want to do?
"I have a royal coffin watching over me. Don't worry, Emperor, I will definitely stay in Nangong honestly. Otherwise, he will not rely on me." M.biQuge.biZ
After hearing this, Zhu Jianshen stood up directly and said with a smile: "Father, your body and bones still need to be recuperated, please wait..."
After saying this, Zhu Jianshen walked outside without any hesitation in response to his father's call.
Zhu Qizhen looked at Zhu Jianshen's leaving figure and was puzzled. They were having a good conversation, but his face suddenly changed.
Zhao Huanong and Gao Yi, who had been waiting outside, saw something strange on His Majesty's face, and they felt strange at the moment.
Just now, the Emperor's cheerful laughter could be heard inside. Why, the time for a pot of tea has not come yet. His Majesty the Emperor is about to leave, and his face is no longer as relaxed as when he first arrived.
After Zhu Jianshen left Zhu Qizhen's residence, he felt more and more uncomfortable in his heart.
He has enjoyed rights for a long time. Even though he clearly knew that Zhu Qizhen's threat to him was very low at this time, once he heard that his old father had made some excessive demands, his thoughts immediately began to wander.
He sat at the table and read a book, but he was still thinking about it.
I am really becoming more and more timid.
After a while, Zhu Jianshen put down the book.
"How long has Wang Cun served my father?"
"Your Majesty, it's been a year since I was young." Zhao Huanong said quickly.
During this period, in front of Zhu Jianshen, Zhao Huanong said some bad things about Wang Coffin intentionally or unintentionally, but Zhu Jianshen always pretended that he did not understand. At this time, His Majesty the Emperor took the initiative to ask, but Zhao Huanong felt happy.
Although I don't know what the emperor and the emperor talked about, the unhappiness on the emperor's face when he left at the end also means that their last conversation was somewhat unpleasant.
Then the blame must be placed on Wang Cun, who served the Supreme Emperor.
It is said that the Supreme Emperor lost his health and was arrogant and licentious along the way, but it was Wang Cun's companion and connivance. When Zhu Qizhen just fell ill, Zhao Huanong impeached Wang Chong and wanted to convict him, but of course Zhu Jianshen did not accept the case.
"Change his place and go to Nanjing to take over the salt inspection...Father, you are arranging someone here."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhao Huanong nodded quickly, but there was not much joy in his heart. He originally expected that His Majesty the Emperor would send the Wang Coffin to North Korea or Annan, but he did not expect that he would go to Jiangnan to work as a salt eunuch. This position is very important. It's important, and it's still a fat vacancy, but no matter what, Wang Cun will no longer stay with the Supreme Emperor, and the good days of the Supreme Emperor will come to an end.
Gao Yi on the side didn't say a word from beginning to end.
"Assign a careful supervisor. After all, my father is still ill. He needs to be taken good care of in terms of daily life."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
After Zhu Jianshen finished making arrangements, he glanced at Gao Yi again: "During this period, weren't you getting closer to Wang Cun? Why didn't you say a word?"
"Your Majesty, we are all slaves of the Emperor. Wherever we go, we are on errands for His Majesty. What's more, Wang Cun stays in the East Factory all year round and is quite capable. He will definitely be able to do a good job in inspecting the salt affairs." Although Gao Yi Saying this, he still reminded the emperor that Wang Cun was a good secret agent. If he only had one identity, he would be overqualified and underused.
After Zhu Jianshen heard this, his heart moved: "Yes, I forgot, he is still leading the errand of Dongchang at this time, he is considered your person, then you go and pass the order to him, let him inspect the Jiangnan salt affairs, of course , The errands of Dongchang cannot be stopped, the imperial envoys inspect the salt affairs eunuchs, and the admiral Nanjing eunuchs of Dongchang Official School are in charge."
After listening to Zhu Jianshen and Gao Yi's conversation, Zhao Huanong felt much less relaxed.
Why did you get promoted?
The father and son had eaten in the morning, but it was not yet afternoon when Gao Yi found the royal coffin in the bamboo garden and conveyed the emperor's decree.
Wang Cun was puzzled, but he didn't dare to feel dissatisfied at all.
Under Gao Yi's urging, Wang Cheng left Jinan City with his decree, one man and one horse, without even saying hello to the Supreme Emperor.
Wang Cun was arranged to leave Zhu Qizhen and put on a new face named Liu Gun. He was many years older than Wang Cun and was also an old man in the palace. However, he had always been a marginal figure among the eunuchs. It's all about honest duty, and it's perfect for him to take care of the Supreme Emperor.
By the time Zhu Qizhen discovered it, it was already night.
During this period of time, Zhu Qizhen was still very satisfied with Wang Chong's care for him. However, Zhu Qizhen couldn't understand why he was in such a hurry to transfer Wang Chong away from him...
However, he had no appeal.
Because the new old eunuch in charge seemed to be more bullying and obedient. Of course, at this time, Zhu Qizhen had not yet figured out that Wang Coffin was taken away because of the last words he said while chatting with Zhu Jianshen.
Zhu Jianshen transferred Wang Cun, of course, not to punish Wang Cun. On the one hand, it was because Wang Cun was indeed the backbone of Dongchang. He had been staying in the south and was well versed in power. To promote Jiangnan tax laws, there must be someone to calm down the situation. Although Wang Cun was like a licking dog in front of his old father, in front of those officials and gentry, he was a vicious wolf.
Of course, he has the ability to stay with his father, which is indeed a "hidden danger"...
