Outside the capital, a group of cavalry came slowly.
Hundreds of cavalry, although not very fast, are in strict formation.
Although they moved slowly, the Zheng Chen on their bodies indicated that they came at full speed on a starry night and only slowed down when they reached the outskirts of the capital.
At the front of the cavalry, there is a young general riding on a good horse and a beautiful horse like a star holding the moon. His handsome and handsome face is full of tangles and worries.
Moreover, the closer to the city wall of the capital, the stronger this look becomes.
Ning Wang Zhu Quan is here!
In the past, this high-spirited young King of Sai would have come like a dragon, a horse, a tiger, and his energy was like a rainbow. He would have let the soldiers and civilians of the Ming Dynasty along the way see how Ning Fan's subordinates could show off his martial arts as a young Bian King.
But now, he is cautious and careful.
Sir, why are you teaching me? Standing on his horse, Zhu Quan turned his head slightly and asked a Confucian-looking man next to him.
The man was in his forties, with a long beard and a dark face. He looked very mature. He frowned slightly and said, "When Chitose meets His Majesty, you cannot argue or refute, just plead guilty humbly and cry bitterly!"
As I said that, I thought again, at this time, I must not be too hard on myself!
Of course I know this! If the old man’s temper is too strong, I will be the unlucky one! Prince Ning Zhu Quan sighed.
He knew the old man's intention of suddenly calling him to the capital, and he also knew that several salt merchants who worked for him had been imprisoned. But he still didn't know how many things those merchants said that he shouldn't have said, but thinking about it, Ning Fan's shady people
Everything that needs to be said has been said.
Otherwise, why would the old man be so angry!
Some things are just a fluke before something happens, but they are scary only after something happens!
But besides being frightened, he was also a little angry. He was not the vassal king doing this kind of thing. Which of his brothers was good behind the scenes?
Ning Fan is located in Daning, with a remote and barren geography, and few people. The land is covered with yellow sand. As a prince, although he has countless lands under his control, what is the use of all the land? The annual salary is only 500 dan, which is not enough for anything.
Moreover, Daning is a big border town, and the Ministry of War and the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion can't wait to stare at it. Every nail is recorded in the book. If he doesn't think of a way in private, how can he, Prince Ning, do anything.
When Chitose arrived in front of His Majesty, he also wanted to cry out about his achievements in Daning! The staff member said again, for example, you promoted farming in Daning, planted drought-resistant and easy-to-live crops, and planted trees to control the yellow sand. And you.
Promote Chineseization, compile books and other things. Your Majesty was very happy after hearing this, and he will be more generous with your other matters!
That’s all we have to do! Prince Ning sighed again and smiled bitterly, “Hey, it’s all good, but I’m the first to be unlucky!”
I must not have such thoughts in my life! Seeing that King Ning was still a little angry, his staff warned him, "You are wrong in this matter, just admit it. Your Majesty and you have a relationship between father and son, and the most is nothing more than punishment."
But if you think you are just unlucky and have been caught in the wrong place, then you know your mistakes and refuse to correct them. Your Majesty, you will be severely punished!
As he said that, the staff member frowned and said, "In the past, I didn't agree with this business of selling private salt. I don't know who you listened to!"
Okay! Okay! I know it! Prince Ning smiled and said, everything depends on Mr.’s idea!
The staff member continued, "Everything is fine with you, Chitose, but you are too assertive, too strong-willed, and refuse to bow down to anything. This time, some setbacks may not be a disaster!"
You are right, I can bear anything but anger! Zhu Quan snorted and said, I hate that Xu Huizu, it is none of his business to get some extra money from me! He will also be impeached in the court, and
Those businessmen really failed more than succeeded!
The old man loves face the most. If he knew it secretly, he would be done with a few scoldings. But now he is doing it in such a big way, and he still wants me to come to Beijing. Humph! I really can’t swallow this tone!
The staff thought about it, shook their heads first, and then said, if Chitose doesn't want to be offended, I have an idea!
King Ning said with great joy, sir, please tell me!
Why bother, turn to the East Palace for help! The staff whispered, if the Crown Prince of the East Palace is willing to mediate, the big matter will be reduced to a small matter, and the trivial matter will be reduced!
Begging him? Prince Ning frowned, I would rather take the old man’s whip! As he said that, he didn’t know what he thought of, and his face was extremely ugly.
He is a king and you are a minister, so there is no shame in begging him! The staff said again, if you don't ask now, sooner or later you will have to face the king and become a minister?
Don’t say anything more about this! Prince Ning said displeased.
The staff sighed secretly and shook their heads.
At this moment, the cavalry in front of the team suddenly announced that there was a large group of people at the reception pavilion in the capital to welcome King Ning into the capital.
As the team moved forward, King Ning saw the people and horses on the other side.
The first person was none other than his father-in-law, Zhang Tai, the commander of the troops and horses in the Beijing camp. Next to him was Fu Rang, Fu Youde's son.
Warmly welcome His Royal Highness Prince Ning! The people who attend to Prince Ning bow down and salute after seeing Prince Ning.
Well! Ning Wang Zhu Quan nodded slightly on his horse, looked at Zhang Tai, and said with a smile, Old Taishan, why are you here?
Although he was favored and was granted the title of King Sai of Ming Dynasty when he was young, his wife's maternal status was not very high. Unlike other vassal kings, the principal wives were all the daughters of the nobles of Huaixi who founded the country.
I have been ordered to come to welcome the prince to his thousandth birthday! Zhang Tai was hesitant to speak.
Ning Wang Zhu Quan looked at the people around Zhang Tai and understood why Zhang Tai couldn't speak directly.
Then he said in a cold voice, shouldn't it be the front troops of the Imperial City Palace who pick up the king? Why are you people from the East Palace?
Fu Rang bowed and said expressionlessly, Cao Guogong has been suspended from his post, and his subordinate is now the commander of the army in front of the Imperial City Palace. After saying that, Dundun is also the commander of the East Palace Guards!
Prince Ning couldn't help but frown.
The old man really doted on his grandson, he doted on him to no end!
According to this meaning, all the imperial city defenders were handed over to the hands of the East Palace. This has never been seen in the past dynasties.
However, then, I suddenly remembered the old things in the Forbidden City when I was young.
At that time, he had not yet become a vassal, and his mother-in-law reminded him all day long to please the prince. In the words of his mother-in-law, if your eldest brother, the prince, rebels, your father is afraid that your eldest brother will not be strong if he does not have many soldiers.
Thinking of this, he felt even more unhappy.
Back then, the eldest brother's position was so secure that the old man didn't even give him the imperial army. But now it's better. He is the supervisor and has been given the power of the guard. He really loves him to no end.
Then Prince Ning looked at the person behind Fu Rang and suddenly became furious.
Aslan, why don't you bow to me when you see me?
Fu Rang is wearing the clothes of a general behind him. He is now a strong man who looks like a Han. It was the Hu warrior Aslan who Zhu Yunxi won in his hands back then.
Back then, under King Ning, he was just a pawn in the charge. But now, he is a general of the Ming Dynasty, and he is often by the side of the emperor's grandson. His temperament is no longer the same.
Your Majesty, I have seen the prince a thousand years old! Aslan said in a sullen voice.
It's not that he doesn't care about his old master, it's just his nature. He has always been taciturn.
Prince Ning was even more furious. Humph, climb higher...
He really couldn't bear it. The barbarian bitch back then had now become a general of the imperial army of the Ming Dynasty. He was only called a subordinate, not a minister.
Thousand years old! King Ning's staff spoke up and whispered, "If you can't bear it, you will mess up the big plan!"
Ning Wang Zhu Quan suppressed the anger in his heart. You have come to pick me up. Where will you take me?
Fu Rang opened his mouth and said, "According to the imperial edict, enter the palace!"
Now? Ning Wangqi said.
Yes! The Holy Emperor ordered that when Prince Ning comes to Beijing, he should enter the palace directly without delay! Fu Rang said.
