Chapter 29 The fundamental dispute (3)

Zhu Zhi said angrily: "My good history, do you say it's a win or a win? Isn't this obvious? Liaodong has just stopped conquering, and it is a good time for development. I am not here, so I don't feel at ease in many things."

Yang Rong laughed and said, "Why can't Your Highness understand the hard work of the emperor? Rong thought that Your Highness not only did not suffer any losses, but also made a lot of money.

You see, first, none of the serious crimes such as usurping capital and enemy were confirmed to Your Highness; second, the fruits of Liaodong's implementation of business were preserved, and the emperor agreed to continue the pilot; third, since he finally recognized the status of Li Dynasty, it was equivalent to confirming the treaty between Your Highness and Li Dynasty; fourth, in the court today, Huang Zicheng, the closest around the crown prince, stood up to rescue His Highness, which shows that the crown prince still wanted to protect His Highness, which is great news.

The only price for these four achievements is to keep Your Highness in the capital. Does Your Highness still remember the four words of keeping a low profile? Now is a good opportunity.

Rong thought that the emperor was actually protecting His Highness, and the so-called wood was fascinated by the forest. The emperor understood this more than anyone else.

He did this to keep people for the grandson. This year he could hone His Highness's will, and on the other hand, he could protect His Highness from being criticized by the court for the shortcomings of the new policy.

If the new policy that has a foundation in a year continues to maintain a good momentum of development, the emperor will let Your Highness go back. So your Highness is calm and cultivates his mind and nature in the capital. A year later will be another world."

Yang Rong's analysis was correct. Even if he could spend the year safely. But could Zhu Zhi tell Yang Rong that in a year, according to history, I, Zhu Yuanzhang, will die if he is cheap?

Zhu Zhi thought for a while and said, "Mianren, the emperor's life is already high. Have you ever thought about what if he has a person who has a long and short life in a year? What should I do if I can't go back to Liaodong?"

Yang Rong did not expect this level and said, "Your Highness is saying that when the Taisun ascended the throne, I don't know how to arrange for Your Highness?"

Zhu Zhi said: "Yes, if I change the seal of other places, then the foundation of Liaodong will be destroyed."

Yang Rong smiled and shook his head: "Your Highness, if it is this, then you are really worried. The crown prince is a filial man, and he dare not refuse to obey the commands of the prince; Your Highness is the only one who can restrain the King of Yan.

Is it hard to give up such a good chess piece? Even if the grandson is willing to give up, Huang Zicheng will not give up."

Zhu Zhi sighed and said, "Anyway, I've been left behind, so there's nothing I can do about it. Then I'll stay in the capital for two days. It's just the Liaodong incident to you."

Yang Rong said: "Please rest assured, Your Highness, I believe that Tie Changshi and Ye Dusi will definitely manage Liaodong well. I want to stay with Your Highness."

Zhu Zhi said: "This is not possible. My father didn't punish you, you can't stay."

Yang Rong said: "Many forces in the capital are competing for it. Especially when the emperor's birthday is high, the situation is even more subtle. Rong is really worried about leaving His Highness alone in the capital. As for the way to stay, Rong has his own concerns. Your Highness doesn't need to worry.

”

Looking at Yang Rong's sincere expression, Zhu Zhi suddenly felt a little moved. In this complex era, there are still people who are willing to do their best to assist him. This is a feeling of helping him in time.

Zhu Zhi had a thorn in his heart, and didn't know what to say, but just clenched Yang Rong's hand tightly.

The two were chatting, and Qu Yuan hurried into the hall, with a nervous look on his face. After saluting Zhu Zhi and Yang Rong, he said, "Your Highness, Lord Yang. Just now, a person under Yang Jing, the Minister of Justice, came to see me.

We went to the restaurant to reminisce about the past. Who knew that he was sent by Lord Yang? He asked Bei Zhi to lead the conversation, and the two shopkeepers Zhao Zhengxiong and Li Dachun stopped themselves in the street today. "

Zhu Zhi stood up and said, "Oh, how did these two live treasures come to the capital to cause trouble for me? Where are they now?"

Qu Yuan said: "They are now staying in the back hall of the Ministry of Justice. Lord Yang did not accept their lawsuit. The person he sent asked His Highness what to do with the two of them."

Zhu Zhi walked back and forth in the hall anxiously, saying anxiously: "It's really a problem to find trouble. It's annoying enough. They both don't know what they thought. When I was in Liaodong, I repeatedly told them not to act rashly. I just didn't listen.

Now it’s finally over. What if someone else uses this to make a fuss?”

Yang Rong said: "Your Highness, don't worry first. This matter is not a problem. Since Lord Yang asked in private, it must be a shelter. You should not let the humbler go and communicate with Lord Yang."

Zhu Zhi said: "Mianren's goal is too big and he is easily targeted. I think Yun Fei will go. Yun Fei, what do you think should be dealt with in this matter?"

Qu Yuan thought for a while and said, "We can make preparations. First of all, if we can cover up the matter, we can secretly take them out and send them back to Liaodong. But if someone finds out, we have to grab them and tell them to talk about it, so please ask Lord Yang to sentence them to wander three thousand miles and send them back to Liaodong.

”

Zhu Zhi nodded. Qu Yuan was becoming more and more mature. When solving the problem, he not only had a plan, but also thought of a plan. Zhu Zhi asked Yang Rong: "What does Mianren look at what Yun Fei said?"

Yang Rong nodded and said, "Yun Fei said very well. Now that things have happened less than a day, Lao Yunfei will contact you immediately. It is best to let Lord Yang beat them out within today."

Zhu Shi said: "Yunfei, go and find the two of them who are in the Beijing sub-colon to arrange the route to leave. You can solve this matter first in the past two days, and the rest will be ignored for the time being.

Remember to instruct them that the greatest support of the merchants to this king is to stabilize the business foundation of Liaodong, and I will take care of everything else. Remember, okay, go." Qu Yuan took the order and came out.

...

On the second day after the court debate, it was the 70th birthday of Zhu Yuanzhang. All the officials below the princes, princes, princes and marquis, and officials above the seventh rank of the road in Beijing went to the palace to attend the birthday celebration.

Before dawn, Zhu Zhi brought Atractylodes and led Zhu Guiyan to the outside of the Meridian Gate. According to regulations, the prince, who was under three years old, was exempted from being too young to bear such a long etiquette.

So Zhu Ye and Zhu Guixie both stayed in the harem and continued to sleep. Zhu Guixuan was still sleepy and crawled on Xiao Chenzi's shoulders.

In the haze, the sky was about to break through the dawn, and a ray of light suddenly magnified from the eastern city wall. The Meridian Gate opened creakingly, and a Jinyiwei walked out slowly, followed by four whipmen, facing each other from the left and right.

The Jinyiwei shouted, and then the whip officer whipped the whip together, "Bang..." it was obviously particularly loud in the quiet Li.

Zhu Guiyan woke up from his sleep and started crying with a "wow". Bai Zhu quickly took him into his hands and took care of him in every way. Zhu Guiyan gradually stopped crying. It was just that it had attracted the laughter of the kings around him.

The whip closed, and a drum sounded from the city tower, and the left and right doors opened at the same time. All civil and military officials entered one after another. All the ceremonial guards had already been arranged in the palace.

The Jinwu Guard set up guards in the hall and Danbi, Chen Jiashi went outside the Danmu Gate, Jinyi Guard set up generals from Danbi to Fengtian Gate, and Chen flags outside Fengtian Gate, all of which were arranged east and west. The Dianmu Institute held horses and rhinestones in Wen, Wulou, south, east and west.

Si Chenlang reported the time to the east of the inner road, near the north. Jiyi Censor II is located in the north of Danjin. Nei Zan II is located in the hall and Outer Zan II is located in the north of Danjin. Chuanzhi, Xuanbiao and other officials are located in the hall. They are all facing east and west.

All the officials walked under the Danban and stood northward. Then the bells and drums sounded, and music in the palace sounded. The rituals and rituals reported to the deacons, praise the five bows. After that, they asked to go to the palace. The cheers were cheered and the music was played.

Shang Baosi walked forward with Bao, the guide led the driver, opened the curtain and rolled the treasure on the table.

Then a resigned official walked up to the Danbao and sang, "I respect the Emperor and His Majesty, I will celebrate the birthday of thousands of years. I will be dedicated to heaven and eternal prosperity." He was filled with drums and music from all directions.

The crown prince Zhu Yunwen went out of his stance to the Fengtian Palace and knelt down, saying, "My minister Zhu Yunwen met His Majesty the Emperor's Christmas Day, so he led civil and military officials to wish him a long birthday. He praised the rituals and sang, bowed, and was happy. He stopped. He praised the scepter, bowed three times, and danced.

Praise and kneel down and sing in the mountains, and all officials bow their hands and yell "Long live" three times.

It was not until this time that the entire birthday celebration ceremony had passed. Next, all civil and military officials entered the Fengtian Palace in order of grades, seniority and young age to present their birthday ceremony. They congratulated their birthday.

After waiting for a long time, it was Zhu Zhi's turn to enter the hall. Zhu Zhi took Atractylodes and dragged Zhu Gui's to enter the hall quickly. He saw Zhu Yuanzhang sitting high in the dragon throne, and Zhu Yunwen was placed on the left.

Zhu Zhi and his family of three knelt on the ground and said in a long time ago: "My minister Zhu Zhi and his second concubine, Lady Atractylodes, and Prince Zhu Guiyan, are you looking forward to congratulating His Majesty on Christmas Day."

Then an eunuch next to the emperor took out Zhu Zhidi's birthday gift and sang: "The Liao king Zhi is the birthday gift, two taels of sea salt, two kilograms of rice, one set of water stoves, three horses in Shenyang, and ten ships of all sizes.

"Compared with the jewels and rare treasures before, such a strange birthday ceremony surprised everyone on the spot.

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled on the seat and said, "Haha, Lao Fifteen's congratulations are really interesting, and they are very in line with my heart."

Zhu Zhi quickly kowtowed to the ground: "Thank you Your Majesty." After saying that, the eunuch Yan Li was closed, and Zhu Zhi three got up and left Fengtian Hall under the guidance of the official.

After a while, things came to an end. After Zhu Zhi came out, he parted with the Atractylodes children. The female family and the little princess, all entered the harem. Zhu Zhi and his brothers waited for the banquet for the ministers in the east wing court room.

Dear brothers, I asked each other for congratulations. The King of Dai Zhu Guiniu showed off to everyone, and he gave many children and grandchildren. Zhu Zhi sat in a corner of the room and leaned on the couch and was too lazy to pay attention to these people.

I don’t know who saw Zhu Zhi and said, “Fifteenth year of the year, your Liaodong has sufficient food and salary and the official treasury is abundant. You must give your father a big gift. Come on, come on, talk quickly and let your brothers open your eyes.”

When Zhu Zhi turned around, he saw everyone sitting around Zhu Di. It turned out that it was Prince Zhu of Xiang. Zhu Zhi quickly waved his hand and shook his head: "How dare you compare with your brother? It's better not to mention it or not."

Zhu Di smiled and said, "My fifteenth brother is lofty, so I can compare with ordinary people. I heard that my fifteenth brother won the praise of his father with a handful of sea salt and a handful of rice.

Why didn’t I say earlier that I am rich in wheat in the swallow field, so that I can also take a handful of it to win the favor of my father.” The kings around me laughed.
