This is a "world" that Ding Yunyi has never seen before.
The imperial palace in the capital is already extremely luxurious, but Prince Fu's Mansion in Luoyang can no longer be described with the word "luxury".
This place is beautiful and beautiful, and the pillars seem to be covered with gold foil. The ground seems to be made of a whole piece of white jade, and the palace is slightly inferior compared to this place.
What's even worse is that it smells like sex here.
When Ding Yunyi came in, there was a singing and dancing performance going on. The singing and dancing prostitutes were wearing almost transparent tulle and dancing to the sound of music. At a glance, the graceful figures of the singing and dancing prostitutes in the tulle were clearly visible.
These dozens of singing and dancing prostitutes were only serving two people. One of them was so fat that he almost lost his appearance. She must be Zhu Changxun, the king of fortune, who was famous for his lewdness and obesity. Looking at the other one, Ding Yunyi almost screamed out, it turned out to be Zhu Yujian, the king of Tang Dynasty!
Zhu Yujian smiled and waved to Ding Yunyi, and Ding Yunyi walked over bravely. Zhu Yujian pointed to the side and motioned for him to sit down.
The costumes and performances of the kabuki girls in front of them make people jealous and their hearts beat faster.
Zhu Changxun didn't seem to notice that there was another person beside him. He just concentrated on enjoying the song and dance performance. After half an hour, Zhu Changxun laughed loudly and satisfied:
"Okay, okay, good dance, good dance. Reward, reward quickly!"
A large plate of gold and silver jewelry was brought out. The singing and dancing prostitutes laughed and grabbed a handful from the plate, and then scattered away. Two of them consciously sat next to Zhu Changxun.
"Prince Tang, you have been living here for more than a month. Don't you like any of the women here?" Zhu Changxun touched a woman's breast and said lustfully.
Zhu Yujian was not surprised by the woman's laughter: "Prince Fu, I don't have this hobby. Just enjoy it yourself, Prince Fu."
"I know, you must be a seductress." Zhu Changxun laughed.
Zhu Yujian was not angry: "Prince Fu, Ding Yunyi has been waiting here for a while."
Zhu Changxun's smile suddenly faded and he pushed away the woman next to him: "Ding Yunyi? Who is Ding Yunyi?"
Zhu Changxun snorted coldly in his nose: "Ding Yunyi, you are so brave, do you still have me as the lucky king in your eyes?"
Ding Yunyi was confused: "Ding Yunyi doesn't know where he offended Prince Fu, and he asked Prince Fu to tell him."
Zhu Changxun's face was gloomy: "When you go to the capital, why don't you come to Luoyang first? In your eyes, am I dispensable?"
Ding Yunyi gritted his teeth and said: "Prince Fu, I should have come to pay you respects first, but this time I returned to Beijing by water with Eunuch Wang Chengen, so I am inconvenienced. Please forgive me, Prince Fu."
"Wang Chengen? Who is he? He is just a castrated useless person." Zhu Changxun said contemptuously.
Looking at the entire Ming Dynasty, apart from Emperor Chongzhen, only King Fu Zhu Changxun dared to scold Wang Chengen like this. Ding Yunyi was not surprised. Even Emperor Chongzhen was very respectful to Zhu Changxun. How could a Wang Chengen be in Zhu Changxun's eyes?
After scolding Wang Chengen, Zhu Changxun's expression improved slightly: "At last you didn't lie. You saved Wang Chengen in Hangzhou. That useless man was grateful to you and took you to Beijing with him. It's human nature."
"The King of Fortune is wise." Ding Yunyi said, somewhat dumbfounded.
"But..." Having said this, Zhu Changxun asked all the women and entourage beside him to leave, and then said: "When you left the capital and went to Fujian, I specifically told you to report to me every six months.
For once, why have you never said a single word?"
Ding Yunyi was even more confused. What should he report? He said perfunctorily: "After Yun Yi arrived in Fujian, he first fought against the red barbarians, and then fought against the pirates. He was busy all day long and couldn't spare any time. This time he was ordered to return to Beijing.
I thought that I would definitely be able to see King Fu, so I delayed it for a while, always thinking that no matter what King Fu wanted to ask, it would be better for Yun Yi to answer him face to face."
"Finally, you still have some filial piety." Zhu Changxun smiled again: "I have heard about the things you did in Fujian, and you did not embarrass me, Prince Fu. Killing the red barbarians and killing the pirates is very good, and it is not in vain.
It’s a lot of cultivation. I didn’t expect you, a scholar, to be so brave.”
You cultivated me? When did you cultivate me? Ding Yunyi had no idea at all. At this moment, Zhu Changxun suddenly asked: "I asked you to help me look at Zheng Zhilong, how is this person doing now?"
With just this sentence, Ding Yunyi suddenly realized that most of the mysteries that had troubled him for a long time were successfully solved.
I think that before my predecessor was transferred to Fujian, he must have accepted Zhu Changxun's secret order to monitor Zheng Zhilong before leaving. So when Eunuch Chen said those words to himself before leaving in Penghu that day, Zhu Changxun would also blame himself for not
Let’s report on Zheng Zhilong’s situation.
But why Zhu Changxun chose to spy on Zheng Zhilong himself is really unknown. As long as he asks, he will immediately reveal his flaws.
Ding Yunyi's mind was spinning very fast. After some thought, he decided to take a gamble: "King Fu, although Zheng Zhilong made great achievements in Liaoluo Bay in Fujian and killed many of his sworn brothers when he was a pirate in the past, he still associates with Hongyi.
Because of their close ties and many connections, Taiwan became the domain of Zheng Zhilong and Hongyi, and the power of the imperial court could not intervene at all. As for other aspects, Ding Yunyi's official position is too small, so there is no way to know."
If the dice is rolled, it is more likely to come up big, but once it comes down low, there will be a disaster.
After saying this, Ding Yunyi waited uneasily.
Zhu Changxun was silent for a long time, and snorted again: "Zheng Zhilong was born as a pirate, and his heart is sinister. If it weren't for the legitimate employment opportunities of the imperial court, how would he be where he is today?"
Ding Yunyi knew that he had won the bet.
Although Zhu Changxun was dissolute, he was dedicated to protecting Zhu Ming's country. He did not trust Zheng Zhilong, a pirate at all.
Zhu Changxun's tone was full of disdain: "He is now a military general of the Ming Dynasty, but he actually colluded with the Hongyi. His heart can be punished, and his people can be killed. But now the court still needs him, so he will be spared for the time being. Xiang
Wen, your family is clean. Your father, Ding Yuanzhao, has a reputation for being clean and honest, and I admire him deeply. Therefore, when I heard that you were going to join the army in Fujian, I thought of you first. You must remember not to fall in love with Zheng Zhilong.
, it will disgrace the reputation of your Ding family."
"Yes, Yun Yi will keep it in mind."
Zhu Yujian smiled at this time and said: "How about King Fu? I said Xiang Wen is not that kind of person, right? At first I told you, you still had doubts, but now you see it with your own eyes and hear it with your own ears, you can believe it.
Bar?"
Zhu Changxun also smiled: "Yes, I have lived up to my expectations."
