The sky in the early morning was as gloomy as tattered cotton wool, which made people feel upset just looking at it.
In the imperial garden, the colorful flowers that used to be so colorful were all drooping. They were like useless penises, curled up and refusing to show their heads.
Zhu Yunxi stood by the rockery beside the pond, his face gloomier than the sky.
Last night, he was so angry that he tossed and turned and fell asleep at dawn.
Guo Guanseng came to report that the vassal princes imprisoned in the ancestral mausoleums of Fengyang and Sizhou were getting drunk every day, and then they cursed him as the emperor.
The ones who scolded him the most were actually the two sons of Concubine Guo Huitai, King Dai and King Gu.
Zhu Yunxi might not be really angry when others scolded him. For the sake of Concubine Guo, he gave special treatment to these two people.
Although they were enclosed in the Sizhou Ancestral Mausoleum, they could move around freely within the confines of the Ancestral Mausoleum. Their daily life and food were never at all harsh, and everything was provided according to the prince's standards.
In addition, even women were matched for them. They were all carefully selected Goryeo women, each in their 20s and 80s. Moreover, in the ancestral mausoleum, the servants who served them treated them with the words "Your Highness".
The honorific name of the word.
You must know that other vassal kings have the word "sinner" before their names. For example, the king of Chu is the sinner of Chu, and the king of Zhou is Zhou Ni.
Moreover, the two of them scolded each other with hurtful words.
What can I say about Zhu Yunxi, the emperor, who pretended to be affectionate and filial in order to gain his favor when he was here, but turned ruthless as soon as he left?
He also said that he, the emperor Zhu Yunxi, had already committed treachery before he became emperor...killing his brother!
They even vaguely said that there was something strange about the old man's death.
Emperor Taizu Gao had just passed away, and the young emperor couldn't wait to perform the funeral. He only gave him seven days of resting time, which was not consistent with his status as an emperor. Moreover, his sons were not allowed to enter the underground palace during the funeral.
Zhu Yunxi might not take it seriously when others scold him like this, but the two of them...
In addition to being the old man's sons, they have another identity.
He is the grandson of Guo Zixing, King of Chuyang.
Guo Zixing is the father-in-law of the old man and the grandfather of Zhu Yunxi's father, Zhu Biao.
In order to look good and cover up some things in the history books, in order to show that the Zhu family's foundation in the Ming Dynasty was upright, they even said that he was the old man's original benefactor and immediate boss.
Future generations may think that these are all the old almanac, but in this era where everything is about inheritance and order, everything must be done by drinking water and remembering the source. It can be understood that without Guo Zixing's promotion and appreciation, there would be no Ming Dynasty today.
In fact, everyone knows that this kind of logic does not make sense. Since ancient times, there have been winners and losers.
But these words are still loved by people, and everyone is willing to believe them. Because although these words cannot bring any real harm to Zhu Yunxi, they are like a toad on the feet, sticky and numb.
Diaphragm should kill people.
As the grandson of Guo Zixing and the vassal king of the Ming Dynasty, the fact that Zhu Yunxi ended up like this shows the unkindness of the emperor.
The kind-hearted Zhu Yunxi didn't care at all. As an emperor, he immediately realized that there was a complicated relationship behind this matter.
Concubine Guo Taigui has been on the bed for a long time now, suffering from illness. She is always talking about going to see the old man soon. But Zhu Yunxi knows that she has secretly contacted her biological daughter Princess Yongjia and asked her to take care of her two children in the ancestral mausoleum of Sizhou.
A son.
Princess Yongjia's consort is Guo Zhen, the eldest son of Wuding Marquis Guo Ying and the newly transferred general manager of the Huaixi expedition.
There have always been people who secretly sent things to Sizhou's ancestral mausoleum. It's not that Zhu Yunxi didn't know about it, but he just turned a blind eye as long as it didn't involve the bottom line.
"Guo Zhen feels that he is no longer a human being. If he doesn't help his brother-in-law, the princess and his wife will not be able to explain it to him. But if he helps, he, the emperor, will definitely feel unhappy." Zhu Yunxi thought to himself, "That's why Guo Zhen told him.
Cousin Guo Guanseng, hum!"
Suddenly, Zhu Yunxi thought of Guo Guanseng's last words last night, "You two have seriously injured your body due to drinking. Should you ask the imperial doctor to take a look? When I was in the army, many powerful generals in the army died suddenly after drinking. Drinking."
Not to be despised!"
Guo Guanseng's words were very subtle, but the meaning expressed was also very clear.
If the emperor is upset, I will think of a way to kill both of them violently.
To be honest, for a moment Zhu Yunxi really wanted to let them just keep the news silently. But his reason told him, no!
Let's not talk about their status as Zhu Yunxi's biological uncles, just from the perspective that they are Guo Zixing's biological grandsons.
The Ming Dynasty needed this old almanac in terms of fame and justice.
Otherwise, why would the imperial court hold a grand memorial ceremony for King Chuyang in Fengyang every year?
The person who goes to pay homage to Chuyang King Guo Zixing every year is another grandson of Guo Zixing, King Zhu Chun of Shu.
Suddenly, Zhu Yunxi looked at the pond with a bit of a wry smile on his face, and said in his heart, "Now I finally understand how troubled Fourth Master Yong was by Asnares Hei back then!"
Thinking about it, he turned around and said, "Pu Wuyong!"
"The slave is here!"
In the distance, among a group of eunuchs, Pu Wuyong floated out like a ghost and got behind Zhu Yunxi.
"Go and tell Guo Guanseng!" Zhu Yunxi said, "From today onwards, the criminals who are imprisoned in the ancestral mausoleum in Sizhou, Fengyang, are not allowed to leave their cells for even half a step. They are not allowed to have slaves around them. Even if they are delivering meals, they are not allowed to be exempted or exempted.
Send it against the wall!"
"You are not allowed to go out of the house or see people. Let them talk to the wall! Give me as much wine as you want!"
"My slave obeys the order!" Pu Wuyong said in a low voice.
"Also, tell Guo Zhen!" Zhu Yunxi frowned again and said, "In the future, if I hear someone delivering something to a sinner, or someone sending a message to say hello, he will no longer need to be the manager of the camp, and will go back to his hometown to serve him and wash my feet!
"
"According to the order!" Pu Wuyong responded softly again, then glanced at Zhu Yunxi's face and laughed in a low voice, "Long live my Lord, please calm down and vent your anger on those irrelevant people, it's not worth it!"
As he said that, he looked at Zhu Yunxi's face and whispered, "People who gossip are hateful, but I think the people who spread these words are even more hateful!"
Zhu Yunxi said nothing, his eyelids twitching.
"The slaves at the Zhongdu Imperial Mausoleum and the Sizhou Ancestral Tomb are all old people left over from earlier years!" Pu Wuyong added, "When people get old, they like to make trouble. Otherwise, the slaves...
"
Zhu Yunxi understood what he meant. In terms of behavior, Pu Buyong was exactly the same as his godfather Pu Bucheng. The difference was that Pu Bucheng would not ask about this kind of thing, but would handle it directly. And there was another difference, Zhu Yunxi was not
Old man.
"Ants also have lives!" Zhu Yunxi sighed, "Select palace servants from the palace to go to the two imperial tombs. Since those old people are old, let's send them away! Those who have nephews are allowed to join their nephews, and those who have no relatives are allowed to stay in the temple.
If you are a boarder, don’t be stingy with money!”
"Master is kind!" Pu Wuyong praised, and then said, "Your Majesty, if we transfer people from the palace, then... we are already short of people in the Forbidden City. Do you want more..."
"There are already enough people in the palace, don't recruit any more!" Zhu Yunxi waved his hand.
In the Forbidden City, eunuchs are the lowest form of existence, and among the secular world, eunuchs are also the most unmentionable. But the reality is that every year, countless people are looking forward to the opportunity of purification and dreaming of reaching heaven in one step.
It is impossible to reach the sky in one step. Although you will lose the opportunity to become a man, you can live a lifetime of food and clothing, and you can also take care of a poor family.
"My slave understands!" Pu Wuyong looked back and said again, "His Royal Highness has been here a long time ago and has been waiting for you outside for a long time!"
"Pass it on!" Zhu Yunxi nodded.
After the words fell, Zhu Gaochi came tremblingly a moment later.
He was not wearing the prince's four-clawed dragon suit, but a purple round-neck uniform, like a big inflated rubber ball.
