424 Cleaning the Portal (2 in 1)(1/2)
Can Zhu Qizhen still leave a dragon seed in Mobei?
When Chen Yichen heard the news brought back by Zhao Hongjie, he was really speechless, but when he thought that Zhu Qizhen had given birth to six children in seven years during the imprisonment period in Nangong in history, it seemed that this behavior was very consistent with his image.
But after mocking, Chen Yichen thought of a very serious problem. Now that history has changed, under his continuous push, Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu will most likely make a move to kill his brother.
And according to the inference of eliminating future troubles, whether the Crown Prince Zhu Jianshen can save his life in the future has also become a suspense.
If the Supreme Emperor Zhu Qizhen had not followed the direction of history, the Supreme Emperor Zhu Qizhen gave birth to six children in Nangong, but "dead" and died. Then when the prince Zhu Jianji died prematurely and the dragon seed left in the thorns after Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu died of illness, the dragon seed left in the thorns would highlight its incomparable value.
If it were a boy, he would be the only heir from the lineage of Emperor Xuanzong of Ming Dynasty!
The Grand Master also seized the opportunity to be smarter. Perhaps he would use the tricks of the Jurchens entering the pass in the future in advance.
The Jurchens and the Ming Dynasty fought for decades. With the slogan of revenge for Emperor Chongzhen, half of the northern country could be deceived. Mongolia took the banner of "orthodox" to support Zhu Qizhen's bloodline ascend the throne. I am afraid that the value and influence of the slogan "revenge" are stronger than the slogan "revenge". Ordinary Ming people will be brainwashed and swept away by them.
Even if the tricks were not successful in the end, it would be enough to cause the Ming Dynasty to suffer heavy damage again. Natural disasters and man-made disasters continued, and no feudal dynasty could withstand it.
"Where are our spies inside the twat?"
Chen Yichen asked Zhao Hongjie.
"You want to deal with that woman?"
"Be prepared for any trouble."
Understanding Chen Yichen's thoughts, Zhao Hongjie shook his head and said, "There are spies arranged by the Tatar officials in the Washu tribe. However, after the war of the capital, the Grand Tutor once focused on strengthening the guardians of the Supreme Emperor, indicating that he had already prepared for the Great Ming and Dark Spy."
"With the importance of the dragon seed, I probably won't give you any chance at first."
"Since there is no chance, then forget it."
Chen Yichen shook his head. The size of the dragon species' function lies in the stability of the Ming Dynasty.
The national destiny has never been placed on women and children. If the Ming Dynasty could be prosperous and safe, and would not give foreign enemies any opportunity to take advantage of, is there any dragon seed important?
"By the way, Hongjie, I'll send someone to remind Li Da. I guess after the spring starts, I will attack Tutuobuhua first, and ask him to stay alert and even rush to help at critical moments!"
The Mongolian Khan Tuotuobuhua bowed his head to the Ming Empire, which in a sense was a double-edged sword.
Chen Yichen needed to use the prestige of this matter to allow Emperor Jingtai Zhu Qiyu to hold the throne firmly and withstand the crisis brought about by Emperor Yingzong of Ming Dynasty Zhu Qizhen. At the same time, the Tatar tribes turned to the Ming Dynasty, which would arouse dissatisfaction and humiliation from the Mongolian tribes and attack them in groups!
The Ming Dynasty once made fatal mistakes in Mongolia's bond policy, sat on and helped the rise of Wasaka tribes, and eventually unified the entire Mongolian tribes.
You cannot fall twice in the same pit. No matter what kind of blood feud between the Liaodong Army and the Tatar tribe have in the wars over the years, supporting the weak and suppressing the strong is the core purpose of the unchanged bond policy. It is necessary to ensure that the Tatar tribe is not engulfed by the thorns.
"I see."
Zhao Hongjie nodded, and had finished everything he should say, and was about to turn around and leave.
But at this moment, he suddenly remembered something and turned around and asked, "Xiangbei, can he accept Zhu Ji's affairs if the prince knows about it?"
For Zhao Hongjie, after all, he studied at the private school in the outer courtyard of the Duke of Chengguo's Mansion, which was considered to be favored by Zhu Yong. Now the hero of Duke of Chengguo is in his late age and has been demoted to a commoner and has been treasoned by the legitimate son. More importantly, Chen Yichen personally confirmed Zhu Ji's charge.
Under such a change, Zhao Hongjie couldn't help but worry about Zhu Yong's body.
"He will accept it."
Chen Yichen replied silently, but in fact he himself didn't know the answer.
"Then I'll leave first."
"Well, I'll see you again if you have a chance."
Say goodbye to Zhao Hongjie, maybe
Influenced by the last question, Chen Yichen's pace was a little heavy. When he came to his carriage, Chen Qingtong was already waiting in the carriage, and he also looked worried.
"Husband, will the court go smoothly?"
When Chen Qingtong saw Chen Yichen get into the car, she squeezed out a smile on her face.
"Just a little bit of an episode, it's still going well overall."
Chen Yichen has never liked to pass on government pressure to his mother, Chen and his wife, Chen Qingtong. He has always reported good news but not bad news for all major affairs in the court.
"That's good."
"Qingtong, did you encounter anything in the harem?"
Chen Qingtong has been careless since she was a child, and she can't hide things on her face. Chen Yichen saw through this kind of worry at first glance.
"I haven't encountered anything, husband, don't think too much."
"Tell me, I can't tell you that this is not obvious."
Chen Yichen shook his head. He had already guessed that it was likely that this matter had something to do with him.
Facing Chen Yichen's inquiry, Chen Qingtong stared at the other party, and her heart was filled with fierce struggle. She didn't want her husband to be involved in the struggle for imperial power, but the problem was that in a high position, how could she be able to be alone?
Especially Queen Qian's desolation and begging made her unable to let go. Only as a mother can she experience that state of despair.
After hesitating for a long time, Chen Qingtong finally spoke, "Husband, the Empress Dowager and the Queen summoned me alone in the side hall of Cining Palace, and wanted to ask me to convey a request to you."
"What request."
"Meng Shi who serves as Crown Prince Zhu Jianshen."
Although the Eastern Palace of the Ming Dynasty did not have some real power as it did during the Han and Tang Dynasties, the Ming Dynasty never relaxed in the education of the crown prince.
The prince had to receive primary education since childhood. After the age of nine, he formally appointed a erudite minister in the court to teach imperial education as the prince teacher. With Chen Yichen's identity and fame and achievements, it is theoretically impossible to serve as a magistrate. If he had to serve as a prince teacher, he would become the prince teacher after the age of nine.
It is obvious that the Queen Mother’s request to the Queen is not the point of teaching, but the key is the status of the teacher and student.
Deducing the motivation behind it, Chen Yichen's mouth showed a mockery smile. No one in the deep palace is a fuel-efficient lamp. Even a woman like Sun can put down her posture and change her position at critical moments, allowing herself to protect the prince Zhu Jianshen's comprehensiveness, which can be considered as not lowering the average level of "palace fighting".
"Husband, as the new king ascended the throne for a long time, the title of crown prince will definitely not be preserved. I have rejected the request from the queen mother and the queen, but now I feel a little unbearable when I think about it."
"The queen is actually a poor person."
Before Chen Yichen could express her thoughts, Chen Qingtong informed the prince's master in advance that the request had been rejected and she would not watch her husband take risks again.
Chen Yichen understood that Chen Qingtong was thinking about him. He raised his hand and gently embraced the other party in his arms, and then said gently: "You have your own decisions for your husband in this kind of thing. Don't think too much about it in the future and put too much pressure on yourself."
Chen Qingtong leaned her head against Chen Yichen's shoulders, and felt an inexplicable sense of stability in her heart.
"Husband, then how will you make a decision?"
"I have no idea."
Chen Yichen sighed deeply. Now history has changed beyond recognition, and even if he has the perspective of God, he cannot see the future direction.
To serve as the prince's teacher to protect Zhu Jianshen, it can ensure the correctness of the historical trend to a greater extent. At least Emperor Xianzong of Ming Dynasty was not a foolish monarch. But if he did this, it would mean that he would stand opposite Zhu Qiyu and could not explain why he did so.
Can you tell Zhu Qiyu clearly that your son will die prematurely and that you will die prematurely?
Now there is no blessing from Duke Cheng Guo, Duke Zhu Yong, Hou Taining Chen Ying and other honorary relatives, mothers, wives, and even unborn children, who will rely on Chen Yichen to be the pillar of the pillar.
With concern and weakness, we will naturally lose the courage of gamblers who are desperate to gamble.
I remember Chen's career is getting more and more
I am walking on thin ice and dare not make a decision easily.
"Husband, no matter what you do, I will support you."
Chen Qingtong felt the burden and pressure of Chen Yichen, and said in great considerately that his husband had done well enough, and he shouldn't have assumed so much responsibility.
The carriage staggered to the gate of Duke Cheng's mansion. As soon as Chen Yichen got out of the car, he saw Butler Wu waiting here with an anxious look on his face.
"Young Master Chen, you are finally back. The master fainted in the study when he learned the news from the palace. You might as well go over and take a look."
When Chen Yichen heard the report from Butler Wu, his heart was inexplicably thumping. You should know that Zhu Yong had many hidden diseases on his body all year round. When he was fine, he might look energetic and majestic.
But once the body collapses, the disease will be much more dangerous than ordinary people, and it is very likely that it will be so unbearable.
So Chen Yichen did not dare to hesitate at all, picked up his clothes and ran towards Zhu Yong's bedroom. As soon as he walked to the yard, he saw many servants looking extremely nervous and busy, and there were even a circle of people standing in the room.
Zhu Yi, who had returned home first, and his mother Chen, were all surrounded by Zhu Yong's window and watched the doctor take his pulse and ask for advice.
Chen Yichen stepped into the house, and what caught his eye was Zhu Yong lying on the sickbed without a bloody face. He had bright red and dazzling blood on his chest.
Seeing his son come back, Chen grabbed Chen Yichen's arm with tears in his eyes, trying to say something but the words came to his mouth, and he couldn't say it even more.
Zhu Yi next to him could still maintain basic calmness, and said in a hoarse tone: "Xiangbei, after my father knew that his second brother had colluded with the enemy and treason, he was so angry that he spit out a mouthful of blood. He has not woken up so far."
Listening to Zhu Yi’s advice, Chen Yichen just nodded and turned to the doctor beside the bed and asked, “Doctor, what is the situation of the master now?”
"Mr. Master is anxious to attack his heart and causes a recurrence of the secret disease, and has fainting and vomiting blood. I am now prescribing some prescriptions to relieve liver and regulate qi, but the secret disease is too deep. Whether he can survive this level depends on Master. "
"Then please ask the doctor to decoct the medicine and take it to your grandfather."
"Yes, Master Chen."
The doctor dared not delay the treatment, so he got up and rushed towards the kitchen, intending to personally decoct the prescription for Zhu Yong, Duke Cheng Guo, to relieve liver and regulate qi.
When the doctor left, Chen, who had been suppressing his emotions, finally couldn't control his emotions at this moment, grabbed Zhu Yong on the couch and said, "Mr., I have been waiting for you in Yingtian Mansion for thirteen years. I just thought that I could let you see Chen'er Chengcai and not lose the face of Chengguo Duke's Mansion!"
"Now Chen'er is already standing tall in the court, and the eldest son can also shine as the lintel of the Duke's Mansion. Did you fall down just because of the second son?"
"Master, you must wake up. I am waiting for you, and the children are waiting for you too!"
Listening to her mother's heart-wrenching cry, Chen Yichen felt an indescribable feeling when she stood beside her.
Since I have memories, my mother Chen has always looked gentle and restrained, and never reveals her emotions in her heart. It was at this moment that Chen Yichen finally saw her mother's concern and deep affection for Zhu Yong, Duke Cheng.
