A knife in love

Chapter 1123

After the woman in the Chinese dress finished speaking, she fell to the ground and burst into tears again.The people around were pointing and laughing, with gloating expressions on their faces.

The official said hypocritically: "My concubine's words are wrong. The old prince has never given a name, and it has nothing to do with our Ministry of Rites. I heard from my colleagues that the name proposed for the old prince has long been delivered. The Ministry of Internal Affairs. It is the Ministry of Internal Affairs that has not responded, so it is no wonder that we are not doing our job well."

The woman in Chinese clothes said: "After the birth of the late king, the palace naturally knew the rules. Not only did it take care of it in the Ministry of Rites, but the adults in the Ministry of Rites also donated the silver to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. But for decades, there has been no response. According to the system of the Great Ming Dynasty, no The imperial decree issued that the vassal princes are not allowed to enter Beijing. We are so anxious that we can’t go to Beijing to find our own way. Today, I learned that my lord is going to Chengdu for business, so I had no choice but to stop Dajia on the street. Please leave a word, my lord. Let the prince feel at ease. Perhaps a single thought of kindness by the lord can save dozens of lives in our entire family..."

Before the woman finished speaking, the official laughed dryly, and said in his mouth: "Why don't I know the difficulties of the prince and the princess? It's just that this matter is really not under the jurisdiction of the official. My lords, but it is useless. It is better to ask the prince to write a booklet and pass it up, and the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Internal Affairs will co-organize it. I think there will be good news soon."

The woman was still talking, and the yellow-robed man who was holding the child said angrily: "During the past few decades, the old prince, the previous king, and this king wrote eight hundred if not one thousand, and the Ministry of Rites didn't even fart! Hypocritically asking me to write another book, is it intentional to amuse me? Since you are going to drive me to a dead end today, you might as well say something, so everyone is open! I would like to ask, in the past 40 years, what has happened to the old man? The lord, the previous king and this king sent no less than 5 taels of silver to the Ministry of Rites, did you hand it over to the Ministry of Internal Affairs?!"

As soon as the man in yellow robe finished speaking, the official's expression changed drastically. He flicked the sleeve of his right hand robe and said viciously, "My lord, what you said is completely unreasonable. When did we ever receive your money? You are deliberately framing the minister of the court." , Even if you are the descendant of the dragon, you can’t just talk like this! You said that the Ministry of Rites took your money, where is the evidence?!”

The man in yellow hugged the child tightly, his eyes seemed to spew fire, as if he could pounce on the official and bite the official at any time.The official was elated at first, but when he saw this man's eyes, his heart felt cold. He couldn't help but took two steps back, and said tremblingly, "You, what do you want to do?"

Seeing this, the woman in Chinese clothes who was kneeling on the ground hurriedly walked a few steps to the side of the man in yellow robe, hugging his right leg with both hands, and cried: "Your Majesty, don't make mistakes! You, Your Majesty, don't make mistakes!"

The man in yellow looked down at the woman, only to see that she was ashen-faced, her hair was disheveled, and tears had broken through the dust on her face, making her look even more distressed.The yellow-robed man originally looked angry, but in the blink of an eye, the anger turned into pain, and finally he looked desperate.I saw him holding the child in his arms tightly, and shouted to the sky: "Emperor Taizu Gao! Emperor Chengzu! Open your eyes and look! Look at your descendants! Look at your servants! This king! I would rather not be born in the royal family, not have the Zhu character as my surname, and I would rather not fall into such a situation where I can’t live or die! My God! My God!”

When the man in yellow roared to this point, two lines of hot tears flowed from his eyes.The woman kneeling at his feet was stunned when she saw how crazy he was, she hugged his right leg even more tightly, and cried: "My lord, my lord, you can't say such a thing!"

The official became more courageous at this time, pointing at the man in yellow robe and said with a sneer: "My lord, you actually uttered such rebellious words, aren't you afraid that you will be deposed as a king and punished as a commoner? Don't forget, If you are stripped of your title, you will be dispatched to Fengyang Mansion and handed over to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to strictly control you. At that time, you will not be able to save your life, you will not be able to save your death!"

The man in yellow robe held the child in his left hand, wiped his eyes with his right hand, and said bitterly: "That is exactly what this king wishes for. If you don't want to be the prince of Laoshizi, even if you are just a farmer, you can work hard and work hard all day. , you can sleep in peace. It is better than guarding an empty palace and living in fear!"

The official said: "My lord, I don't talk nonsense with you. Today you blocked me again and again, uttering rebellious words. I think you are a royal family, and the little prince is seriously ill, so I won't talk to you." General knowledge. This matter is not under the jurisdiction of the official, you can talk to the Ministry of Rites in charge."

When he said this, he reached out and took out a piece of silver from his pocket, weighed it in his hand, threw it on the ground casually, and said in his mouth: "This piece of silver is a personal gift from the official. few."

The man in yellow robe changed his face and was about to speak.The eyes of the woman holding his right leg lit up, she took half a step forward, grabbed the silver in her hand, and said, "Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir!"

The man in yellow roared angrily: "Put down the silver! The cheap will not be eaten! You are also a lady of everyone, have you never heard this sentence?!"

The woman raised her head and said in a trembling voice: "My lord's gift of silver is not something we begged for, so how can it be said to be a cheap gift?!"

The man in yellow said angrily: "He is giving money to beggars! You, you really think that we are beggars?!"

The woman's complexion changed, she looked at the man in yellow robe, she held the money tightly in her hands, and said word by word: "Of course we are not beggars! But I know that if we don't have money, we might not last three days, we will have to Starved to death at home! You only know how to sit in the room and read, what kind of righteousness does you have to raise. But you don’t know that there is not even a grain of rice in your house? After a few days like this, even the few books you have left The books have to be sent out and sold?!"

When the woman said this, she had a desolate expression on her face, tears welled up in her eyes, and she said in a trembling voice: "The former king had no name in his life, so he can only be called Zhu 27. From the day you were born, you were called Zhu Shishi. The three of us The two children are called Zhu Xiaowu, Zhu Shishi, and Zhu Nineteen. When Emperor Gaozu was not prosperous, he was named Zhu Chongba. It has been more than a hundred years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. How could the princes and grandsons be reduced to even the names There is no such thing? The Taizu Gao emperor risked his life to fight the Tartars, is he going to watch the future descendants fall into such a state?!"

After the woman finished speaking, she fell to the ground and burst into tears.The yellow-robed man's face was pale, and he muttered to himself.It's just that the voice is so low that I can't hear what he is saying.The common people who watched the excitement saw this couple in fine clothes and fine clothes fall into such a situation, but they also felt sad in their hearts.The surroundings suddenly fell silent, and many people showed unbearable expressions on their faces.

The official looked disgusted, cupped his hands at the yellow-robed man, turned around and was about to leave.Seeing that he was going to leave, the man in yellow rushed forward two steps in a hurry, stood in front of him, and said: "If you don't agree today, this king will never allow you to leave!"

The official was furious, and said loudly: "For the sake of your surname Zhu, I have been patient again and again. Don't push your nose to the face! Let me tell you the truth, we can't control many direct princes at the moment. Where are you?" Can you still take care of your sprawling collateral royal family? If you are wise, try to find some money, and I beg those gentlemen in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, don't put all the treasures on our Ministry of Rites!"

After he finished speaking, he turned around and wanted to leave again.The man in yellow was in a hurry, and rushed forward to stop him.Annoyed, the official stretched out his hand and pushed the yellow-robed man's chest.The man in yellow didn't expect that this man would attack him, and he was pushed backward by the official without any defense.It's just that when he fell down, he was afraid of falling into the child in his arms, so he lifted the child up with both hands, and fell straight to the ground.

Seeing the man in yellow robe fall down, the woman kneeling aside didn't care about the silver in her hands. She opened her hands and the silver fell to the ground.I saw her rushing forward, trying to support the body of the man in yellow.It's just that she was a little far away from the yellow-robed man, although she rushed forward, it was too late.

Seeing that the man in yellow robe was about to fall to the ground on his back, everyone felt a flash in front of their eyes, and a figure flashed out from the crowd, and arrived behind the man in yellow robe swiftly.

The man in yellow is holding the child in both hands, his back is no more than a foot from the ground.It's just that the figure came behind him, and the yellow-robed man stopped falling immediately.After a while, I saw his body suddenly bounced up and stood on the ground perfectly.
