Chapter 27 I have a way

"Why did Your Highness summon us in such a hurry?"

In the flower hall, Xie Jin, wearing a green robe and soap boots, hurried over. He had a rest today, so he drank wine yesterday and finally slept until three o'clock in the morning. However, he was summoned by the eunuch sent by the eldest prince Zhu Gaochi.

At this time, two green-robed officials with extraordinary appearances were already sitting in the flower hall.

One of them had a calm expression and sat still holding the tea. The other person put down the tea cup in his hand and came over with a smile.

The one who sat motionless was Yang Shiqi, and the one who greeted him with a smile was Yang Rong. Although the now famous "Three Yangs" have not gathered together, the complementary personalities between the two Yangs are already very obvious.

Yang Shiqi lost his father when he was young. He was pure, filial and strong-willed. He was older than Xie Jin and was not from the imperial examination. He did not bother to court Xie Jin, whom he had never met.

But Yang Rong is not like that. Yang Rong has a alert and understanding temperament, and is good at observing people's words. He is a Jinshi in the second year of Jianwen. Compared with Xie Jin, who was a senior Jinshi in Hongwu in the 21st year, he is a serious junior in the examination room, so he welcomes him with a smile.

Up.

"Your Highness didn't say anything, but I heard from my colleagues who were on duty in the palace today that His Majesty summoned His Highness. He thought he wanted to consult us on something, so he summoned us in a hurry."

After listening to Yang Rong's explanation, Xie Jin felt relieved. He thought there was some emergency.

At this point, Xie Jin was about to take a seat. Yang Shiqi had just put down the finished tea cup and nodded briefly with him.

How could he understand this truth that even he, Jie Jieyuan, could not understand?

But Xie Jin, who had the highest official position and was ranked first in the examination room, straightened his back intentionally or unintentionally, revealing the white pheasant on his official robe.

As soon as these words came out, several people finally came back from the topic that had been diverted.

"Brother Shiqi has always been a bored person in the Hanlin Academy. He probably doesn't socialize with the officials in the capital. Xie Xie doesn't even bother to go to the Goulan to listen to music for fun. So I'm just showing off."

After the two parties saluted, Zhu Gaochi sat at the first place, and Xie Jin, Yang Rong, and Yang Shiqi sat on his right side in turn, which was the left side of the flower hall.

Xie Jin also nodded stiffly in return, and then sat majestically at the top of the three.

"Its prosperity is rapid, and its demise is sudden." Yang Shiqi muttered to himself thoughtfully.

Hearing this, both Yang Shiqi, who was sitting upright, and Xie Jin, who was sitting a little loosely, leaned forward and looked at Zhu Gaochi.

"So charming?" Xie Jin couldn't believe it.

Yang Rong smiled and took over the words: "If it is this person, I must have heard something about it, and what the scholar said is wrong."

Xie Jin was stunned. He blurted out the word "good", but he swallowed it alive.

"This matter was entrusted to me by my father."

Zhu Gaochi repeated the question that Zhu Di asked him, namely the principle of dynastic periodicity, to the three of them as briefly as possible.

Zhu Gaochi wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, looked up at the three of them, and waved his hand gently.

Xie Jin thought about it for a long time, and finally looked around.

In Xie Jin's heart, a scumbag like Jiang Xinghuo couldn't even pass the exam.

When the last sentence was spoken, the flower hall suddenly fell into an eerie silence.

"Jiang Xinghuo is not a hungry ghost in lust. On the contrary, Qinhuai's famous prostitutes have recommended themselves to countless people, but I have never heard of any of them actually succeeding."

Before Zhu Gaochi could answer, Xie Jin just said disdainfully.

"I have met His Highness the First Prince!"

Yang Rong looked at the silent Yang Shiqi and the pretentious Xie Jin, sighed in his heart, and took the initiative to ask.

"I have asked about the details of Fang Xiaoru's case. This Jiang Xinghuo is just a registered disciple of Fang Xiaoru, a private school teacher, and a scholar in the countryside. He was born into a rich man in the countryside. He went crazy last year and sold his family property.

Then he dismissed his servants and came to Nanjing alone, wandering on the Qinhuai River every night."

There was a coughing sound, and with the help of two eunuchs, the fat Zhu Gaochi moved into the flower hall.

The only way to protect yourself is to pretend to be dumb.

Why is he Fang Xiaoru's disciple?

Or is he just like Liu Yong and Du Mu, who has won the reputation of a brothel by relying on his licentious poetry?

This is just a joke!

He dared to say such words as "the emperor is the biggest landowner". Who knows if he participated in it and would be beaten to pieces by this event that would definitely become a huge wave.

"Hiccup~ This poem is quite good."

Jie Jin frowned into the word "Chuan" and was about to open his mouth, but was cut off by Zhu Gaochi.

Xie Jin is full of doubts, which is certainly not difficult to understand.

Yang Rong had made up his mind to ask questions.

"It's Jiang Xinghuo again." Yang Shiqi frowned slightly.

"The remaining snow is shining coldly on the screen, the plum blossoms have fallen and the flute has been played for the third time, and there is no one else and the moon is dimly bright. I am a melancholy guest in the world. I know what happened to you, and I burst into tears. I recall my life with the sound of heartbreak."

Even though Zhu Gaochi was kind-hearted, he felt a little funny and angry at this time. He said in a low voice: "What the father said is of course true to his words."

"You all know that although my father didn't say it, it must be a new question raised by Jiang Xinghuo."

"Xie Xue Xue?" Zhu Gaochi looked at him.

This fact has fully proved that people’s curiosity is indeed endless when it comes to gossip.

"I wonder what your Highness wants to inquire about when he calls me here?"

Yang Rong looked at Zhu Gaochi's fat face and asked, "I wonder what question this person asked?"

"It's just that Baiyi Qingxiang has a good hand occasionally. Compared with Xie Xuexue, it's a world of difference." Yang Shiqi was already a little impatient and said in a flat tone.

Yang Rong was still smiling, but Yang Shiqi didn't say anything. He just sat upright, folded his hands on the patch of the official robe on his abdomen, and rubbed it casually twice.

Yang Rong smiled and said: "His reputation is not known to the government and the public, but if he mentions a song about Huanxisha, Xie Xueshi will definitely know it."

Yang Rong looked up at Zhu Gaochi, who happened to be looking at him too. The two looked at each other for a moment, and then looked away.

"Okay, three gentlemen, let's not talk about what happened to Jiang Xinghuo. We will only talk about what the father told us."

Now even Yang Shiqi was interested, and Yang Rong didn't show off and said directly.

"Sit down, gentlemen. I have something to ask you."

"Your Highness." Xie Jin still couldn't believe it, "Did Jiang Xinghuo really come up with this dynasty cycle law? Didn't Master Daoyan borrow it from His Majesty?"

"Cough cough cough"

"Brother Mianren, come and tell me."

"How?" Xie Jin asked.

After a fit of coughing, Zhu Gaochi was silent for a few breaths, then signaled the personal eunuch to close the door of the flower hall before speaking.

Zhu Gaochi was slightly startled, obviously this was different from the Jiang Xinghuo he learned from his father, Emperor Zhu Di.

After hearing Xie Jin's doubts, even Yang Rong, who had just decided to pretend to be mute, couldn't help but speak.

"Xie Xueshi, if it was really master Dao Yan who realized it, there is no need or possibility for him to borrow someone else's name or someone else's mouth."

Several people were about to say something, but Yang Shiqi suddenly raised his head.

"Your Highness, I have a solution."
