Chapter 218: Lan Yu's Sudden Success Makes Him Famous, While Gui Lao Si Goes Astray
The next day.
At four o'clock in the morning.
The East Palace.
Chang squatted in front of Zhu Xiongying, carefully dressing him. Seeing the little guy dozing off, she felt distressed but also a little amused.
She reached out and rubbed Zhu Xiongying's head.
Zhu Xiongying immediately became more energetic, staring at Chang with big eyes.
Chang asked with a smile: "What did your fourth uncle make Xiongying feel when you went to Tuqiao Village yesterday?"
He came back after the curfew last night.
When Xiongying came back, he had already fallen asleep in the carriage. She didn't have time to ask what Xiongying's first impression of his fourth brother was.
Zhu Xiongying tilted her head slightly and thought, "Fourth uncle is not as enthusiastic to Xiongying as those around my father, but Xiongying feels very comfortable."
Chang couldn't help but smile.
Those who can come into contact with Xiongying in the East Palace are not enthusiastic.
It's a false flattery.
Xiongying is young and doesn't understand what flattery is.
But the authenticity of the emotions can be felt.
"What else?"
"Fourth uncle is like my great uncle, with strong arms. It's quite comfortable to be hugged by fourth uncle, but unlike my great uncle, fourth uncle feels very kind..."
Chang smiled and glared.
My uncle is very sharp, not to mention Xiongying, a child, even adults will feel uncomfortable with my uncle.
However, in the past year, my uncle has changed a lot.
Fourth brother is more reserved.
Especially in the year he went to Tuqiao Village, doing farm work, dealing with the people, getting married and having two children.
Last time after Yongming and Qihua came back from the full moon banquet, she and the prince discussed that the fourth brother is now like a warm and unpolished jade.
It's not that there is no edge, but it's all restrained.
Put the unpolished jade under the light, and you will see the crystal clearness inside the unpolished jade.
The same is true for the fourth brother.
When something happens, you can really see the advantage of the edge.
It's like the ventriloquism incident.
The fourth brother is like a peerless swordsman, the edge flickers and the sword is sheathed.
But Lü Ben is still lying on the sickbed.
On the other hand, the fourth brother went back to Tuqiao Village to live his own life with Miaoyun. If they hadn't bothered the fourth brother, the fourth brother would have accompanied Xiongying to Liaodong.
The fourth brother should be living a comfortable life now.
She hoped that Xiongying would be able to do the same in the future. Such people can live freely and easily.
Unlike the prince, who is too tired.
…
"Are you ready?" Just as the mother and son were chatting, Zhu Biao appeared at the door and asked with a smile.
Chang stopped what she was doing.
Encouraged with a smile, "Go."
After Zhu Xiongying saluted Chang, he trotted to the door of the palace.
Zhu Biao smiled and took Zhu Xiongying's hand.
He got on the sedan chair, lowered his head, and asked with a smile: "If someone embarrasses your fourth uncle in the morning court this morning, what will Xiongying do?"
…
Fengtian Hall.
When the ministers were waiting for the court to open, they gathered in groups of three or five and whispered.
"What did your majesty do with the grandson to Tuqiao Village yesterday?"
"I can't guess, I can't guess..."
...
Everyone was talking about Zhu Yuanzhang taking Zhu Xiongying to Tuqiao Village.
Lan Yu listened for a moment and curled his lips. The guesses made by these people were all nonsense.
Without making a sound, he came behind Xu Da and whispered, "Third brother, do you know some inside information?"
Xu Da turned his head slightly and glanced, "What makes you think that we should know the inside story?"
"Zhu Silang is your son-in-law..."
"The prince is here! The grandson is here too!" A sudden exclamation interrupted Lan Yu's words.
Lan Yu didn't bother to talk to Xu Da, turned around and looked...
Others reacted in the same way.
Zhu Biao and Zhu Xiongying came slowly in a sedan chair.
"The prince brought his grandson to the morning court. This morning's topic must be related to the grandson."
"Yesterday he took the grandson to Tuqiao Village. Today the grandson came to the morning court. There must be something big!"
...
They are all old foxes who have lived for thousands of years. After connecting with yesterday's events, they are keenly aware that there must be something big in today's morning court.
Zhu Biao led Zhu Xiongying up the steps, and all the officials saluted.
When the father and son stood at the front.
A pair of eyes secretly looked at the father and son, one big and one small.
Father, son, grandfather and grandson.
This morning's morning court is a rare occasion for three dragons to attend the court together.
The matter must be big.
Hu Weiyong thought quickly and squinted his eyes to ponder...
"Open the court!"
A shrill voice sounded.
The palace door opened.
The ministers followed Zhu Biao and his son and filed in.
Then, Zhu Yuanzhang arrived.
After the simple ceremony between the monarch and the ministers, all the officials stood still, and those who impeached and reported waited patiently.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked around, and his sight finally landed on Zhu Xiongying. A smile instantly appeared on his face, and he waved with a smile: "Xiongying, come to grandfather."
Zhu Xiongying raised his head...
Zhu Biao nodded, and then trotted to the Dragon Court.
The officials followed his gaze and finally came to the side of the imperial desk.
"Grandfather."
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and touched Zhu Xiongying's little head, then looked at the ministers, "Let Xiongying participate in the morning court today."
"Because, we plan to send Zhu Silang to take Xiongying and Zhou Wang Zhu Su to Liaodong to grant the shoulder badge of the Great Liaohe Guard..."
"Go to Liaodong?"
"And let Zhu Silang accompany them?"
"The grandson is young, and it's a long journey. What if something happens?"
"No, no..."
Before Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, the court was in an uproar.
The news was so shocking that the ministers lost their manners in front of the emperor.
The Minister of Rites Zhao Zhu stepped out in the midst of the noise, "Your Majesty, I object. The crown prince is young and should not travel far. You can send Zhu Silang and King Zhou. Why the crown prince!"
"Zhu Silang is just a scholar. What qualifications does he have to go? King Zhou can do it alone!"
"Yes, I don't agree with the crown prince going to Liaodong. Zhu Silang is just a scholar and has no qualifications."
"Duke Wei, your son-in-law, a scholar, is qualified?"
...
After Zhao Zhu, a large number of court officials stood up to oppose.
Zhao Zhu only opposed letting Zhu Xiongying go, while others directly pointed the finger at Zhu Di and even wanted to drag Xu Da into the water.
Zhu Yuanzhang observed silently.
The first place in the first class of the bastard Lao Si had already irritated these people.
Now there is finally a chance to point the finger at Lao Si.
'What does Emperor Zhu want to do? '
While Zhu Yuanzhang was observing the officials, Hu Weiyong was also observing Zhu Yuanzhang.
He understood it at the first time.
This is another test of Zhu Silang by Emperor Zhu.
Dare to hand the Crown Prince to Zhu Silang to test him.
While Emperor Zhu did not trust Zhu Silang, his trust in him was growing deeper.
Behind the unprecedented test, there must be an unprecedented major arrangement!
‘If Zhu Silang passes the test during this trip to Liaodong, what exactly will Emperor Zhu arrange for Zhu Silang to do! What! ’
This matter must be very big! Very important!
There is no need to use the Crown Prince to test Zhu Silang when he enters the government.
Is it that he finally cannot tolerate me, Hu Weiyong, and wants to do something to me?
…
Hu Weiyong is calm on the surface, but his thoughts and emotions are fluctuating violently.
If he is like this group of colleagues who stood up to oppose, he is not smart enough and cannot see the deeper essence of the incident.
If you can't see it, you won't feel uncomfortable.
This feeling of seeing it but not being able to guess it is very uncomfortable.
“We support it!”
The sudden voice interrupted Hu Weiyong's thoughts.
The ministers turned their heads one after another following the voice...
Then, they were stunned.
Zhu Yuanzhang was also stunned.
‘Shocked, right? ’
Lan Yu was secretly proud, stepped out of the line, and said loudly: “Your Majesty asked Zhu Silang to accompany the grandson to Liaodong. The safety issues that you adults are worried about are completely self-inflicted.”
“Your Majesty will entrust the grandson’s safety to Zhu Silang?”
“I, Lan Yu, can figure out the problem. You are smarter than me, a reckless man. It is impossible that you can’t think of it. Therefore, your opposition must have other intentions. You might as well say it out and let His Majesty hear whether it makes sense.”
Looking at everyone, he was shocked that a scholar should be looked at with new eyes after three days of separation.
Lan Yu subconsciously raised his head slightly.
He, Lan Yu, is no longer Wuxia Amon.
He didn’t know what the emperor was going to do.
But there was one thing he was very sure of.
Nephew Xiongying, following Zhu Silang, will definitely learn a lot.
He is the best example.
Only by understanding Zhu Silang can we deal with Zhu Silang.
If Zhu Silang has a rebellious heart in the future, Xiongying will use Zhu Silang's methods to deal with Zhu Silang.
He supports it, not to reconcile with Zhu Silang, but this trip is beneficial to Xiongying!
After a brief surprise.
Many court officials secretly cursed and greeted Lan Yu's ancestors.
Everyone's little thoughts, of course, can't be said.
But now, the reason of the safety of the grandson is not tenable, how can we oppose it?
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Lan Yu deeply, and then asked with a smile: "Lan Yu said that you have other reasons for your opposition. If you have other reasons, you can say it."
"No, I just care about the safety of the grandson."
"Your Majesty, General Lan misunderstood my meaning."
...
All the officials secretly cursed Lan Yu and spoke at the same time.
Zhu Yuanzhang felt funny, but also felt that he had nowhere to exert his strength.
He was full of anger last night, and he was ready to find an unlucky guy!
Who would have thought that Lan Yu would suddenly jump out to disrupt the situation and settle the matter.
It's clearly a dog trying to meddle in other people's business!
…
Zhu Yuanzhang felt bad for the whole morning court.
The officials felt even worse and felt very uncomfortable.
…
After the court was dismissed, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao left one after another. Lan Yu was the first to walk out of the Fengtian Hall under the gaze of everyone.
Standing at the door of the hall.
Looking up at the sun in the sky.
Ha!
So cool!
He was not arrogant and domineering today, and he didn't have a red face and a thick neck. He tried his hand and silenced all the opponents in the court with just one sentence.
It feels so good!
Lan Yu left his back to his colleagues and left.
…
Imperial study.
Ma Xiuying was waiting.
Seeing the father and son, grandfather and grandson come in, he hurriedly stood up and asked: "How is it, is it decided?"
Zhu Yuanzhang said unhappily: "Ask Biao'er!"
Ma Xiuying looked at Zhu Biao suspiciously.
Zhu Biao couldn't help laughing and told Ma Xiuying about the morning court.
Ma Xiuying was stunned for a while, then smiled and said, "Lan Yu has really changed a lot."
Humph!
Zhu Yuanzhang snorted, "That was because the bastard Old Four got beaten up!"
...
"Teacher! After the trip to Liaodong, Emperor Zhu will definitely make a big move that will shake the world!"
In the left prime minister's room, Hu Weiyong closed the door and couldn't wait to ask, "Is Emperor Zhu impatient and ready to take action against his students?"
Hu Weiyong's eyes flashed with madness and cruelty.
Li Shanchang turned around and saw the moment, and was startled, and lowered his voice to stop him, "Put away your suicidal thoughts!"
"Even if Zhu Silang is powerful, Emperor Zhu can't suddenly promote him to replace you. The credit for escorting the grandson to Liaodong this time is not enough."
This student saw that after Zhu Silang accompanied the grandson to Liaodong, Emperor Zhu would make a big move.
He felt guilty and thought that the emperor was going to take action against him.
He even had the idea of taking a risk.
It was clear that he wanted to make some problems for the grandson's trip to Liaodong.
This idea was tantamount to suicide.
This time, I don't know how many Jinyiwei would secretly protect him along the way.
Emperor Zhu would dig deep into the ground for any disturbance.
Hu Weiyong gradually calmed down and said ashamedly, "Teacher, I was reckless."
Li Shanchang shook his head, "How are you dealing with those extraordinary things?"
"I have used the power of the prime minister to make secret arrangements, and I am waiting for a suitable time to confront Emperor Zhu."
Li Shanchang nodded, "Take care of all the things at once. Once the time is right, all the previous irregularities will be dealt with at once. Only in this way can we go into battle lightly and fight Zhu Silang without any burden in the future!"
Hu Weiyong nodded while pouring tea for Li Shanchang.
Slightly raised his eyelids and tried, "Teacher, what will Emperor Zhu do after Zhu Silang's trip to Liaodong?"
We have to do something that will shock the world!
The grandson Zhu Xiongying will not only shock countless people if he follows Zhu Silang to study, but will also have an unpredictable and far-reaching impact on the Ming Dynasty.
Of course, these cannot be told to Hu Weiyong.
He shook his head slightly, "Be patient. When Zhu Silang and the grandson return safely from Liaodong, Emperor Zhu will confront us."
...
Jinzhou.
General's Mansion.
Qiu Fu and Zhu Neng stood outside the mansion waiting.
Zhu Neng sneered in a low voice: "When we first came to Jinzhou, we were treated so well. General Feng walked in the middle and held our hands to enter the general's mansion. Now you and I have been promoted to middle and senior generals. We have waited outside the mansion for a whole morning to meet the general."
They came to report the summer offensive this time.
As a subordinate, it is okay to mobilize troops once without the knowledge of the superior.
But it is not okay to do it again and again.
In particular, the entire Liaohe Guard will be deployed in this summer offensive.
With such a big movement, if they don't report it, Feng Sheng will have a good reason to chop off their heads if they win the battle.
Of course, they can't tell Feng Sheng the real goal of the summer offensive.
In order to pass on the imperial seal, they are playing with fire and taking risks.
If we tell Feng Sheng, what if Feng Sheng reveals their intentions to Liaoyang King Nahachu?
"Be patient, General Feng will definitely meet us." Qiu Fu smiled and whispered: "It would be great if Ghost Old Four could come to Liaodong. The special forces in our plan would be led by Ghost Old Four. He has the most ideas and the strongest adaptability. He is the most suitable to lead the special forces. Men are afraid of entering the wrong profession and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man. He is cold in his bones and calm when killing. He is born to be a killer! Why take the exam for a scholar? Isn't this a mistake!"
Zhu Neng smiled, "Ghost Old Four will definitely fail!"
