My brother-in-law is the prince Chapter 90: Zhu Yun’s fan slip
Zhu Di actually didn't mind Emperor Jianwen's life or death.
If he was really dead, it would be nothing more than seeing the body.
But if he is not dead but no one is seen, this is another situation.
On the one hand, I clearly did not kill him, but I was mistakenly thought that I was regicide and my nephew. How unjust is this?
On the other hand, this Jianwen is a hidden danger after all.
Since it was a hidden danger, it should at least be under his nose.
Zhu Di was pacing back and forth, quite excited, but he still felt in his heart that... this matter was a bit mysterious.
So Zhu Di looked up at Cheng Guogong Zhu Neng and said, "Have you seen Zhu Yunwen?"
"No." Zhu Neng said: "Your Majesty, you know about me. Before I was defeated, I was always in the Peiping army. Where can I see him?"
Zhu Di said: "Since I have never seen him, how can you believe that it is him? I have said something ugly before. If you are also fooling around, I will have to skin you."
Zhu Neng: "..."
In fact, it’s no wonder that Zhu Di has been frightened. His own son even made a show that Guo Degang is Guo Degan. Even now... this matter is still causing him a lot of headaches.
Now if there is another fake Jianwen, it will really make me laugh or cry.
Queen Xu, who was sitting next to her, stood up and looked a little excited: "Your Majesty, Duke Cheng Guo is a man of general knowledge and will never make a joke at this critical moment."
When Zhu Di heard this, he understood in his heart that Queen Xu was very accurate in judging people. After thinking about it carefully, Zhu Neng was indeed pretending to be a fool in small things, and he never failed in big things.
So Zhu Di took a deep breath, stared at Zhu Neng, and then said: "This is a great achievement. I didn't expect Zhu Qing to make such a great contribution. He will be escorted here first, and I will talk about it after seeing him."
Zhu Neng said hurriedly: "Where can I find this..."
Zhu Di didn't care about this now and interrupted him: "This matter is very important. The fewer people who know about it, the better. People in the palace... must also try their best to take precautions. Go to the Meridian Gate in person and take my belt with you."
Then, together with the person who was guarding Jianwen, he was escorted to me."
Zhu Neng cheered up. In fact, he thought so too.
On the one hand, he was eager to bring people into the palace, so he must not let Jianwen spend the night in Nanjing before meeting Zhu Di. Because once he stayed overnight, many things would become unclear.
On the other hand, the fewer people who know about this matter, the better. Zhu Neng has a very keen sense of smell, especially up here.
"I will do it now."
As soon as Zhu Neng left.
Zhu Di, with his hands behind his back and a sullen face, paced anxiously and waited.
Countless past events flashed through his mind.
There was Emperor Taizu Gao, and there was the original crown prince Zhu Biao. Naturally... Emperor Jianwen Zhu Yunwen was indispensable.
Suddenly, thousands of past events flooded into my mind, with mixed feelings.
Queen Xu was still calm and did not have so many thoughts. She just sat down and put on the appearance of a mother to the world. Instead, she reminded Zhu Di: "Your Majesty should change your clothes."
"Changing clothes?" Zhu Di looked at Queen Xu in surprise.
Immediately, he woke up and cheered up: "Yes, change clothes, someone is coming..."
When he heard Zhu Di calling someone, Yi Shiha quickly walked in.
"Change."
There are some lakes in Yishiha. It's already night, and it's not like attending a sacrifice or a court meeting...
After all, His Majesty would not change into a dragon robe even in the daytime. It looks intimidating, but it is very inconvenient to wear it.
But Yi Shiha didn't ask any more questions, nodded, and went to prepare immediately.
After a while, Zhu Di was wearing a heavenly crown and a five-clawed golden dragon robe, looking majestic and majestic.
Queen Xu also wears a phoenix crown and phoenix robe, solemn yet majestic.
Zhu Di sat on the high seat, while Queen Xu sat on the side in the middle of the palace.
The couple was speechless and fell into a long wait.
On the other side, Zhu Neng got the order and rushed to the Meridian Gate. He immediately took out the emperor's token, screened away the eunuchs and guards at the Meridian Gate, and then led Zhu Yong, Zhang and Qiu Song to escort the monk into the imperial city.
"You...put down your baggage."
Qiu Song held the baggage in his arms and stood unyieldingly, confronting Zhu Neng.
Zhu Neng said: "Are you out of your fucking mind? Don't think that I don't know what you have in this bag. Believe it or not, I will kick you to death on your father's behalf."
Zhu Yong stood aside and grabbed Qiu Song's baggage: "Listen to my father."
Qiu Song reluctantly let go of the baggage.
Immediately, the four of them entered the palace hand in hand.
The monk entered the Forbidden City with confusion in his eyes.
Obviously, although he had gone in and out of the Forbidden City countless times in his life, and even the Forbidden City had been his home, he had never gone in or out of the Meridian Gate. What he saw and felt was familiar yet strange.
It's just that the monk is still calm. He has actually accepted himself for who he is now.
In the past, he controlled the destiny of everyone in the world, but now, he cannot even control his own destiny.
People are knives and servants, and I am fish and meat.
He did not struggle, nor did he have the idea of escape. He walked calmly towards the depths of the palace that he was most familiar with.
When he arrived at the Jinshui Bridge, his eyes paused for a moment in the rushing river under the Jinshui Bridge.
But soon, he gave up the nostalgia in his eyes and acted decisively.
Zhu Neng and the three villains in the capital ignored him. Although Zhu Neng usually talked a lot, Zhu Neng never said a word to the monk.
Rush all the way to Ouchi.
Before they arrived, Zhu Di ordered Yi Shuha to disperse all the palace maids and eunuchs along the way.
Only Yishuha is here to respond.
Yishiha greeted Zhu Neng and looked at the few people behind him. He had a smile on his face, as if he had seen everything, but also as if he had not seen anything. Then he lowered his head and held a lantern.
Lead the way ahead.
All the way to the dormitory.
Yi Shiha entered the palace first, not daring to look directly at Zhu Di and Empress Xu who were above them, so he knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, empress, we are here."
Zhu Di looked behind Yi Shiha at the palace door wrapped in darkness, and was silent for a moment.
"Xuan."
He also nodded and sang loudly: "Come in!"
Zhu Neng takes the lead, followed by the three villains in the capital.
But at this time, Zhu Di's attention was obviously not on these four people.
His eyes fell on the monk walking at the back.
Although it has only been a few years, things have already changed.
The monk in front of me has long been unrecognizable from the original imperial grandson.
But Zhu Di still recognized him at a glance.
correct.
That's Zhu Yunwen.
Zhu Di felt agitated in his heart.
Suddenly, I was breathing heavily and was speechless for a long time.
Seriously...it's him!
Queen Xu's phoenix eyes turned slightly, and she obviously recognized the person.
She smiled slightly, put on a graceful look, and behaved appropriately.
Zhu Yunwen lowered his head and said nothing.
Zhu Di still sat firmly, staring at Zhu Yunwen, and finally said: "If the emperor is here, I don't know what he will think when he sees you acting like this."
Zhu Yunwen still lowered his head, but first announced the Buddha's name and then said: "If the emperor is here, what will he think when he sees his fourth uncle like this?"
Zhu Di laughed and said: "Haha, you are an unworthy child. Don't you know that you still don't know how to die?"
Zhu Yunwen was silent for a moment, and then said again: "I have died once, or in other words, I have died long ago. What remains today is nothing but a walking corpse."
Zhu Di said: "How did you escape that day?"
Zhu Yunwen said: "It is easy for one person to escape from the Forbidden City."
Zhu Di asked again: "When you cut down the feudal vassal, did you ever think of today?"
Zhu Yunwen said: "What's wrong with reducing the vassal status?"
The uncle and nephew were at odds with each other.
Queen Xu just sat upright, smiling all the time.
She has seen strong winds and waves, and these small waves are obviously nothing to her.
Zhu Yong and Zhang listened with great interest and wanted to shout: "Let's fight, let's fight quickly."
Only Zhu Neng was complaining in his heart. He had known that he should have resigned, but now he was staying here. It didn't matter if he left, and it didn't matter if he didn't leave. Could he listen to these words?
I saw Zhu Di staring at Zhu Yunwen, smiling, and said: "It is indeed right to reduce the vassal state. Huang Kao values his descendants too much. Once the enfeoffment is made, the descendants of the Zhu family will be endless. How will the court support them thousands of years later?"
Zhu Yunwen didn't seem to expect that Zhu Di also admitted this, and said: "Since the fourth uncle thinks it is right, then isn't the so-called Jingnan ridiculous?"
He went all out and wanted to make it clear today.
Zhu Di said: "Whether it is right or wrong to cut down the feudal vassal has nothing to do with your situation today. Whether it is right or wrong, it does not prevent you from becoming a lost dog today!"
Zhu Yunwen was speechless.
Zhu Di sneered and said: "What you call cutting down the feudal vassalage is just forcing your uncle's family to death, or deposing them one by one as common people? You stupid fool! If you weren't so stupid, how could I be here today to accept the destiny of God?
, inheriting the great unification of our ancestors.”
"The rebellious minister is just lucky."
These words suddenly made Zhu Di's expression change.
Zhu Di was furious and even subconsciously wanted to lift the inkstone on the eucalyptus slip and throw it at Zhu Yunwen.
But finally, he raised the inkstone, and then gently put it down. A glimmer of light flashed across his eyes, and he said: "If it's a fluke, how can I win the world with just a prince? Oh, you idiot, you passed the imperial examination."
I haven’t learned much about my real skills, but I still dare to speak so loudly here. Do you think... you are only targeting a few royal palaces when you cut down the vassal?"
After a pause, Zhu Di continued: "Do you think that with the help of a few talented and rotten scholars in the court and a single edict, you can teach the world to obey you?"
After repeated questioning, Zhu Yunwen did not answer.
Zhu Di continued: "Do you know that what you are facing is thousands of things that swept across the desert, in the grassland, in the Gobi, in the heavy snow, the snow is higher than the knees, but still hundreds of people are running in the snowy field.
Traveling thousands of miles just to find a fighter, there are also those men who, after traveling all night, are exhausted physically and mentally, but encounter thieves and still rush to kill them regardless of their own safety. Do you know why they are so disloyal that they would rather follow me than try to pull you down?
Come?"
Zhu Yunwen's eyes unconsciously showed that confusion again.
Obviously, he hasn't thought about this.
When Zhu Neng heard this, he seemed to have some memories, and he fell into deep thought.
Zhu Di laughed and said: "This is because your so-called cutting off the vassal vassal is just a joke. What you want to cut down is me, your uncles! Of course you are proud of your succession to the throne. Do you think that you can let a scholar
Scholars who can read a few lines from the Four Books and Five Classics can come to Peiping and give orders with your will."
"Do you know how arrogant these literary thieves were when they arrived in Peiping and faced so many soldiers? They shouted and shouted with their eyes above their heads. They thought very highly of themselves and regarded the soldiers who fought bloody battles as if they were nothing more than grass and grass.
To be pure, treat people as turbid.”
When Zhu Di said this, he showed a look of disdain, and his voice became calmer: "Just a civil servant, just read a few more books, and you can live in a temple, and for my confidants, I can say a few nonsense in front of you, and you will believe it to be true.
, ordered these people to be imperial envoys, and everyone must welcome them wherever they go. What is ridiculous is that when these people arrived in Peiping, they were appointed as supervisors of the army. What he said was true. Those who have made great ambitions to abandon their horses and shroud their bodies countless times.
Even the soldiers who were bloody on the battlefield couldn't understand it."
"If a soldier disobeys the slightest, he will get angry. He thinks he has tens of millions of soldiers, and he will beat, scold and insult the soldiers at every turn. Those generals who have made great achievements in war originally followed Taizu Emperor Gao, followed King Zhongshan, and followed me.
They crawled out of the mountains of corpses and seas of blood. They followed the emperor to determine the world, and then followed the king of Zhongshan to chase north and fight to the death with the Tatars. They have made countless military exploits. Such meritorious military ministers will only know you when they come to you.
In front of the poet who dances and writes, he has to bend his back. No matter how angry he is, he still has to endure it. He is abused everywhere, and there is no day without being wronged. "
Speaking of this, Zhu Di bared his teeth and cracked his eyes: "So now, do you still think that you are cutting off the vassal state? What kind of vassal are you cutting off, are you and I and your uncles? If you had a little bit of wisdom back then,
I don't trust those people around me who only know how to write and write. I'm afraid that I and my brothers will be killed long ago. But you... used the most violent means to humiliate your uncle, humiliate countless soldiers in border towns, force them, and make them
Even if you want to be an ordinary rich man, you can't achieve it. I and all the officers and men are tall and handsome men, and I and your uncles, like you, are all after the imperial examination, so it's okay to succumb to you, the emperor's grandson.
How can you still endure living an ignoble existence in front of those damn ministers around you?"
Zhu Yunwen's originally calm eyes seemed to waver slightly.
He tried hard to calm himself.
But Zhu Di's words were like dropping a huge boulder into the depths of his peaceful heart.
Zhu Di laughed, laughing contemptuously, but he pointed at Zhu Neng and continued: "Do you know who this person is? This person's name is Zhu Neng. He was just a deputy Qianhu in Peiping at first, but do you know
, this man has the courage that no man can match. When he conquered Mobei, he was the king's pioneer and killed countless Tatars. When you wanted to send people to kill me, he took the lead in controlling the nine gates of Beiping and led his troops to defeat him one after another.
Geng Bingwen, Li Jinglong, and other famous generals such as Ping'an were captured in Lingbi, and a hundred thousand officers and troops were surrendered. Such people...can be used by me, and what kind of cats and dogs are you surrounded by?"
Zhu Neng puffed up his chest and said: "My original contribution is nothing. The greatest blessing in my life is to meet Your Majesty, so that I can show my talents. For this reason, I will have no regrets even if I die."
For the first time, Zhu Yong felt that his father, who was usually silly and only talked nonsense, seemed to be shining brightly at this moment.
At this time, Zhu Di pointed his finger at Zhang again and said: "His father Zhang Ying was just a member of the left guard of Beiping. But in the battle of Dongping, when he heard that I was in danger, he risked his life and fought into the hundreds of thousands of troops.
Among them, he died of exhaustion in the end."
Zhu Yunwen's eyelids drooped slightly, but there was only silence.
"These people... are all upright men. I can record all their achievements. What about you? When you were sitting here, did you know what was going on outside the Forbidden City? Apart from those who only know how to study, you
Bookworms, how many people... know the pain of war, how dangerous it is on the battlefield, and how many people know... From the time they set off for the war, their parents, wives and children, leaning against the door, were waiting in fear every day.
, not a day goes by without food and tea?”
"You don't know!" Zhu Di shouted.
Then, Zhu Di continued: "You think that the throne fell from the sky, you think... the subjects should be loyal to you as a matter of course. You think those men deserve to die for you!"
"You even think that by relying on a few nonsense books and just reading them correctly, you can rule the world. Ha... Huang Kao is such a hero, but there are such unscrupulous descendants like you!"
Zhu Yunwen's body trembled slightly.
He has obviously analyzed success and failure.
He thought a lot about how cunning his fourth uncle was, or... how shameless Li Jinglong was.
But now...Zhu Di directly tore off the last bit of his fig leaf without reservation.
Zhu Di glared at Zhu Yunwen angrily, and the smile on his face became colder: "The rebellious minister is just lucky. So this is what you think in your heart. If you still think like this to this day, don't you think it's ridiculous?"
Zhu Yunwen sighed and said: "To this day, talking too much is useless."
Zhu Di said calmly: "If you weren't a descendant of the emperor who was unworthy in the imperial examination, why should I say more?"
Zhu Yunwen seemed to be touched by something, and tears suddenly filled his eyes. He certainly hoped to show his stubborn side in front of Zhu Di.
But now... I finally shed tears: "The poor monk has indeed failed the imperial examination."
"Huang Kao has a spirit in heaven. Knowing that I still exist in this world, I will definitely smile. As for you...you forced Prince Xiang's family to death, humiliated Uncle Wang, and used thieves. How can you not only fail Huang Kao's expectations?"
Zhu Di raised his chin and looked at Zhu Yunwen with disdain: "You don't have to say anything about the success of a king and the defeat of a bandit. You are not worthy!"
Zhu Yunwen just sighed softly.
Empress Xu stood up with a smile and said: "Why are uncles and nephews so tense when they meet each other? I personally went to prepare some food and drinks for Zhu Yunwen. I'm afraid it will be hard for Zhu Yunwen to come all the way. If you have anything to say, even if he wants to kill someone in the future.
Well, let’s take a bite of food first before talking.”
Zhu Di glanced sideways at Queen Xu.
He seemed to understand something.
At this time today, it’s time to scold. How to deal with it next is of course another matter.
But after all, the man in front of him is the son of his imperial brother Zhu Biao. I don’t know if the man in front of me is a fool or a hypocrite. At least he said don’t hurt my uncle. This last bit of etiquette still needs to be thoughtful.
.
So Zhu Di said: "Then go and give orders to the kitchen."
Empress Xu said warmly: "I haven't worked in the kitchen for a long time. I don't have any other skills, but I still know how to cook a few bowls of plain noodles."
The couple looked at each other, already understanding each other, and Zhu Di nodded.
Queen Xu left immediately.
Only Zhu Neng was left, which became increasingly embarrassing.
Wouldn't it be embarrassing if his mother-in-law doesn't give us some food later and just lets us watch and eat?
Zhu Di stood up at this time, clasped his hands behind his back, and suddenly softened his tone: "You, the imperial aunt, are the most knowledgeable and sensible, and have the same temperament as the loving and filial Queen Mother."
Zhu Yunwen looked ashamed and confused, but he didn't say a word.
Not long after, Queen Xu had changed her attire, but only wore a commoner dress. She personally brought a jade plate with six bowls of noodles.
When he saw that there were six bowls, Zhu Neng breathed a sigh of relief. This old face was saved.
Queen Xu said: "Your Majesty, please come and lend a hand."
Zhu Di understood and glared at Zhu Neng. Zhu Neng said "oh" and went to carry a table with Zhu Di.
At that moment, the table was put down, Queen Xu put down the plain noodles, and called to Zhu Yong and the others: "You are hungry even if you think about it, come on."
Yawenba
So Zhu Di took the seat of honor without hesitation, accompanied by Empress Xu, and the three villains from the capital came to the table without any courtesy.
Zhu Yunwen hesitated for a moment and finally sat at the last table.
Zhu Di slurped down some plain noodles, looking like he was enjoying the meal.
Zhu Neng is much more gentle.
Zhu Yong and Zhang ate with their heads down.
Only Qiu Song took a bite and put down the tachyon sluggishly.
Zhu Di raised his head: "What's going on?"
Qiu Song said: "Without meat, it doesn't taste good."
Zhu Neng immediately stared at him and hit him hard on the head with a chestnut: "Eat yours."
Qiu Song was so angry that he wanted to find his own fault.
Zhu Di continued to eat sloppily while saying: "In the 25th year of Hongwu, the emperor's brother died of illness, and I went to Nanjing to attend the funeral. When I met Zhu Yunwen at that time, I realized that you were a weak leader and could not take on such a big responsibility. It's a pity.
, Huang Kao was heartbroken, but still put his hope in you. Even now, thinking about it, I still feel sad."
Zhu Yunwen took two bites of plain noodles, but he had no appetite at all.
Zhu Di then glanced at Zhu Neng, as if making a family call, and said: "How could you, an old man like you, find him?"
"Where did I find it?" Zhu Neng said with a bitter smile: "Your Majesty, it was these three boys... who sent it. I was also shocked when I saw it..."
When he said he was shocked, his eyes were as big as light bulbs, as if he was really shocked.
Zhu Neng wiped his mouth and said: "That's why I sent it overnight, but it disturbed Your Majesty. Don't blame Your Majesty."
Zhu Di looked at Zhu Yong and the others in surprise: "How did you three find this person? Where did you find him?"
"It was in a temple in Fujian. We listened to our elder brother. He gave us a map and a bag of tips. We followed his instructions and rushed to Fujian." Zhu Yong said fiercely.
Just now, Zhu Di was only thinking about Zhu Yunwen in front of him.
I haven't thought about why this person was found.
But now I heard Zhu Yong and the other three said that they found the person according to Zhang Anshi's instructions.
Zhu Di suddenly remembered that Zhang Anshi had indeed told him to find someone before, but Zhu Di dismissed it at that time.
After that, I asked Jin Yiwei, and Jin Yiwei's answer was that he was most likely to escape overseas.
The more Zhu Di thought about it, the more surprised he became. Half of the plain noodles were hanging on his lips. When he opened his mouth, the plain noodles slipped back into the bowl. He couldn't help but said: "Zhang Anshi? How did Zhang Anshi know this? Could this guy be capable of immortality?"
?”
"By the way, where did Zhang Anshi go? Call me."
Queen Xu said: "You're still in the side hall, aren't you guarding Jingruo?"
Zhu Di suddenly realized, snorted coldly and said: "Damn it, the love between children is still strong at this time."
Queen Xu: "..."
"He can't be better off in the palace. Hurry... call him to me quickly."
Zhu Di looked anxious and furious.
Queen Xu said: "I, my concubine, should go there in person."
At this time, it is not easy to entrust outsiders.
After Zhu Di heard this, he said: "Thank you for your hard work."
Zhu Di finished eating the noodles and sneered when he saw Zhu Yunwen still eating.
Zhu Neng, on the other hand, was very embarrassed and restless.
…………
In the side hall.
As soon as evening arrived, King Yin and Zhu Xi moved the small Jindun to the palace and sat down silently.
Then he held his chin up and waited for Zhang Anshi to tell a story.
Xu Jingruo is in good health and already knows how to pour tea for Zhang Anshi.
It's just that whether the disease is good or bad, after all, it's not her and Zhang Anshi who have the final say. They have nowhere to go right now, so they can only remain in a stalemate like this.
She poured tea for Zhang Anshi, who was eloquent.
Today we have reached the most exciting part. Yin Wangzhu is so anxious that he wants to die and keeps urging: "Speak quickly, speak quickly, oh, do you have to ask this king to punish you? Isn't it said that Jia Baoyu tried Yunyu for the first time?"
Where are the clouds and the rain? How did you try?"
Xu Jingruo half-understood what she said, her face turned red with embarrassment, and she said, "Don't ask, skip this part, I don't want to hear it."
King Yin Zhu? was immediately furious. In a moment of excitement, he opened his eyes and said: "I advise you not to be ignorant of praise. I am a generation older than you. My father is Ming Taizu."
Xu Jingruo frowned and said, "You...you pinched me."
Yin Wang Zhu? Quickly relaxed his hand strength, curled his fingers into a ball, and changed the kneading to small fists to gently tap, while saying: "Is it much lighter now? Does it still hurt? Will it be better?"
Some?"
Xu Jingruo was silent for a moment, nodded and said, "It's better. Don't always pinch it with your fingertips, it will hurt a little."
"Oh." Zhu Xi nodded seriously: "If you had said no earlier, it wouldn't have hurt. You are so old and you don't know what to do. If I hadn't seen you as a patient, I would have been angry. When I got angry, I would be scared."
"
After that, he continued to rub his shoulders and back lightly, feeling very happy.
Zhang Anshi looked at Zhu?s mean look and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Thinking back to Emperor Taizu Gao, what a hero he was...but his son...is this?
Zhang Anshi cleared his throat and said, "Today we won't talk about the first test of Yun Yu. Let's first talk about Grandma Liu entering Rongguo Mansion."
Zhu? suddenly became angry again, clenched his hands tighter, gritted his teeth in anger and yelled: "No, if you don't listen to Grandma Liu, I want to listen to the first trial Yun Yu."
Zhang Anshi scolded: "You little pervert, if you scream again, I will kick you out."
Zhu? frowned, but said: "Then you can talk about Grandma Liu. I can also listen to Grandma Liu."
As he was talking, a voice suddenly came from outside: "Who is Grandma Liu?"
As soon as Zhu Xi heard the voice, he immediately became obedient and stepped forward: "I have met the emperor's sister-in-law."
After hearing this, Zhang Anshi and Xu Jingruo also became serious, stood up, and saluted in unison.
