The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

Chapter 158 Sapphire returns to Beijing (Happy New Year, ask for a monthly ticket.)
In this era, the status of women is relatively low, compared to Daming, it is even worse in other places.

Zhu Ying is completely different with women. He understands that women have advantages over men in many ways.

Therefore, except that there is no women's army under Zhu Ying's command, women are extremely equal in other respects.

It can be said that in Zhu Ying's place, the status of women has been greatly improved.

Especially in the area of ​​lurking and collecting intelligence, it is an important part of Zhu Ying's command.

And these women's worship of the boss is much more crazy than other members.

Ye Yueqing is one of the best.

"Master."

Hearing his boss teasing him, Ye Yueqing's originally calm and composed face suddenly broke down.

A blush surfaced on her cheeks, her heart pounded wildly, and she couldn't even think about how the Dong family became the eldest grandson of Daming.

At this moment, the sky and the earth were eclipsed, and the whole world turned gray, only the owner standing in front of him was bright.

She no longer knew how to answer, as if she had lost the ability to speak.

Zhu Ying looked at Ye Yueqing who bowed her head shyly in front of her, feeling a little astonished.

Of course he has all the information on Ye Yueqing.

According to the data, this former daughter of a wealthy businessman was trafficked because of her family's decline, and finally came under her own command.

Then, under the training of the Qunying Chamber of Commerce, he improved himself at an astonishing speed.

Replacing the original Princess Goryeo may not be complicated from Zhu Ying's point of view.

But for ordinary people, the difficulty is so great that qualified people are extremely rare.

First of all, replacing Zhao Xiangxi was actually a long-established plan, and the replacement must be loyal enough.

In the original plan, Ye Yueqing would be used as a nail, nailed to the Daming Palace, to provide convenience and information to the chamber of commerce as much as possible without exposing himself.

The difficulties involved can be imagined, there are very few people who can meet this requirement, and Ye Yueqing is fully competent in any aspect.

When necessary, she even sacrificed herself to complete the political tasks assigned by the chamber of commerce.

Zhu Ying was clear about this plan. He even knew that in the original history, in the 31st year of Hongwu, the emperor made a great trip and many concubines would be buried.

In other words, after Ye Yueqing entered the palace, he only had six years to live at most.

It's cruel, but in this day and age, what could not be cruel.

Fortunately, Zhu Ying no longer needs this plan.

Thinking of this, Zhu Ying couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

Because Hongwu's concubine was buried in 31 years, only he knew.

"Thank you for your hard work. From now on, you will follow me, and you don't have to worry about Gao Li's affairs."

After pondering for a moment, Zhu Ying spoke slowly.

In the past, Zhu Ying always refused to be served by maidservants because she was worried that she would be addicted to beauty and mess up her will.

But now there is no need to think about those.

For now, Zhu Ying has too few manpower available in the capital.

Zhang Bo has too many things to deal with, and it is also very hard. Because of his low level of education, he is also struggling in many things.

He is very clear about Ye Yueqing's ability, and he can completely make up for the gap in this area.

"Why are you still standing there? Thank you, my boss, for being able to be by my side every day. Isn't that what you think about day and night?"

Seeing that Ye Yueqing was still in a daze, Wei Guang hurriedly urged.

When Ye Yueqing heard the urging, he came back to his senses, with surprise in his eyes, he knelt down on one knee without hesitation, lowered his head and said, "Thank you, Master!"

Kneeling on one knee is a soldier's etiquette, and Ye Yueqing has always regarded himself as a soldier under his master's command, which is a direct expression of his loyalty.

Zhu Ying didn't think about the difference between men and women, so she directly helped Ye Yueqing up.

The moment his body was touched by Dong's family, Ye Yueqing's body couldn't help but trembled, and he stood up.

He lowered his head deeply, not daring to raise his head, his white and tender neck was flushed red.

Zhu Ying didn't bother to tease Ye Yueqing anymore, and told Ye Yueqing to follow her directly, and went deep into the Tianjie Temple.

"Come on, what's going on with Yueqing today, she's so absent-minded in front of the boss, hahaha!"

Seeing that Zhu Ying was walking away and Ye Yueqing hadn't moved yet, Wei Guang urged again.

Wei Guang was very clear about Ye Yueqing's thoughts. After all, from Korea to Daming, Ye Yueqing and Wei Guang were colleagues to some extent.

For this strong girl who is about the same age as his own daughter, Wei Guang appreciates it very much.

Being able to follow Dong's side and realize her dream is also the most perfect ending.

The boss will definitely not treat her badly.

"Thank you Uncle Wei."

When Zhu Ying left, Ye Yueqing recovered immediately, his eyes changed from blurred to clear.

Then quickly followed.

Next to him, Zhao Xiangxi followed closely without any hesitation.

I am Princess Yueqing's personal maid, so naturally I want to be with Princess Yueqing.

"Master Daoyan, please prepare, His Royal Highness Changsun will be here soon."

Brother Jin Yiwei looked at Yao Guangxiao and said with a trace of respect in his eyes.

He was right, His Highness Changsun really came here in person, which shows that Master Daoyan still has a certain status in His Highness Changsun's heart.

"Thank you, little brother, for your help, the poor monk will remember it in his heart, and never dare to forget it."

Needless to say, Yao Guangxiao is extremely skilled in grasping people's hearts.It is natural to know what brother Jin Yiwei is thinking.

Brother Jin Yiwei was very satisfied when he heard this, and even helped Yao Guangxiao tidy up his clothes.

Not long after, Zhu Ying, supported by many guards, appeared in the deserted Buddhist scripture pavilion.

"Poor monk Daoyan, I have met His Royal Highness the eldest grandson."

The two Jin Yiwei knelt on one knee, Yao Guangxiao put his hands together, bowed his head and said respectfully.

Zhu Ying looked at Yao Guangxiao who was saluting to him, feeling quite emotional in his heart.

Recalling the scene of meeting Yao Guangxiao for the first time, it has not even been three months since now, and the identities of the two have undergone a huge reversal.

This black-clothed prime minister who caused a huge wave in the original history is almost completely surrendering to himself now.

"Get up." Zhu Ying first said to the two Jinyi guards, and then said to Yao Guangxiao with a smile:
"Master, you are welcome. You and I are old acquaintances, so we will see each other like this."

"Recently, the master can still live here at ease. I think the master is too busy on weekdays. Now that he is old, he should take a good rest."

Yao Guangxiao felt bitter in his heart, he couldn't understand the deep meaning in His Highness Changsun's words.

Obviously, His Royal Highness Changsun is very clear about his relationship with King Yan.

With this one-handed action, there is really no way for himself and King Yan.

Thinking about it, if I don't belong to him, this Sutra Pavilion in Tianjie Temple will be a place for the elderly.

Thinking of this, Yao Guangxiao did not hesitate, clasped his hands together, bowed his head and said directly: "Although the poor monk is old, his body is still strong. If His Highness does not dislike him, the poor monk is willing to be loyal to His Highness until death."

Zhu Ying also didn't expect that Yao Guangxiao was so straightforward, without the slightest change, the export was to express loyalty.

He didn't even say any kind words, and he didn't care about the surrounding environment, so many Jin Yiwei were here.

When she came back to her senses, Zhu Ying immediately understood Yao Guangxiao's thoughts, which was to use the surrounding situation to prove herself.

From another point of view, it even seemed a bit persuasive. With so many people watching, even Yao Guangxiao became Yao Guangxiao's help considering the two women next to Zhu Ying.

A small detail and action is enough to show that the prime minister in black really lives up to his name.

Zhu Ying didn't tease Yao Guangxiao's thoughts, but she would appear to be small.

Smiling slightly, Zhu Ying said earnestly: "Since the master has already thought it through clearly, then I don't need to say more. I will count on the master to help me in the future."

Hearing this, Yao Guangxiao couldn't help the joy flashed in his eyes, even though he was already confident in his heart, he lowered his head and folded his hands together again and said: "The poor monk will definitely do his best to repay Your Highness for his kindness."

Daming Palace, Fengtian Hall.

After the morning court ended, all the ministers filed out, each heading towards his own office.

The five ministers, the grand scholars of Diange, and several ministers went to the Huagai Palace to discuss with His Majesty the matter of the separation of military and government mentioned in the early court.

After the morning court ended, Li Jinglong quickened his pace and wanted to leave quickly.

Just when Liu He, the eunuch in charge of the chief inspector of ceremonies, announced his resignation, he noticed that his cousin Zhu Yunqi was constantly winking at him, obviously he had something to discuss with him.

Li Jinglong could completely guess what his cousin Zhu Yunqi wanted to talk to him about.

How could he want to participate in such things, he just wanted to avoid them.

Pretending to turn a blind eye to his cousin Zhu Yunqi's eyes, he quickly ran away after retreating.

He was already prepared to not even go to the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army, but to just say hello and go to the outer city to be chic.

As His Majesty's nephew, a relative of the emperor, absenteeism is harmless, at least it is much more comfortable than facing his cousin Zhu Yunqi.

Fortunately, in the imperial court, he was in the middle of the military officers, and his cousin Zhu Yunqi was in front of the civil servants. It was impossible for his cousin Zhu Yunqi in the Fengtian Palace to yell, which was a breach of etiquette, and he was given enough time to escape.

This thing can be hidden for a day. I think it will not be long before His Royal Highness the eldest grandson will enter the palace. At that time, it will be a foregone conclusion, and there will be no troubles. My cousin should give up.

However, the moment Li Jinglong stepped into Fengtian Hall, a figure stood in front of him.

"Cao Guogong, why are you in such a hurry, is there something urgent to deal with?"

It was Huang Zicheng who stood in front of Li Jinglong, and it was obvious that Huang Zicheng was waiting here one step earlier.

Seeing Huang Zicheng's meaningful eyes, Li Jinglong knew that he couldn't escape.

Casually explained: "There is indeed something going on in the Dudu Mansion."

After Li Jinglong finished speaking, he also stopped. He didn't say any more, and Huang Zicheng didn't ask any more questions.

Not long after, Zhu Yunwen hurried out, seeing his cousin Li Jinglong and Huang Zicheng waiting at the door, he suddenly realized that he was thinking too much.

"Cousin, I have something extremely important to discuss with you."

Zhu Yunwen said in a low voice.

Li Jinglong nodded when he heard this, and said, "I guessed that this is not a place to talk, I'd better go to His Highness first and then talk about it in detail."

"Okay." Zhu Yunqi responded without thinking too much, and took his cousin and husband to the Hall of Spring Harmony.

In the Hall of Spring Harmony, after Zhu Yunwen asked the eunuch to deliver tea, he turned away from the left and right, and then solemnly said to Li Jinglong:

"Cousin, during the early morning court today, my husband and I saw the emperor's grandpa's dragon rushing out of the palace, followed by many guards in golden clothes, in front of Fengtian Hall."

Hearing this, Li Jinglong frowned and said, "How is this possible, my cousin must be delusional."

In today's world, no one other than His Majesty is qualified to ride a dragon, even if it is a special gift, those who are qualified are in the morning court.

Zhu Yunwen didn't explain too much, but continued: "As far as I know, the emperor's grandfather slept in Kunning Palace yesterday."

Hearing this, Li Jinglong reacted immediately, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "His Royal Highness King Yu has entered the palace?"

Zhu Yunqi nodded with a serious expression, and said, "It must be so."

It is not a secret in the palace that His Majesty does not enter the Kunning Palace. The reason why he suddenly fell asleep and Long Zhu appeared can be imagined.

At this time, Zhu Yunqi's face was slightly ferocious.

Why, why is he not even clear about his identity, so he can ride the dragon.

One must know that even his father and the king have ridden Long Lun very few times.

He didn't even have one himself.

Why did he just enter the palace, so he could be like this.

In Zhu Yunqi's heart, he was particularly reconciled, the differential treatment given by the emperor's grandfather was really too obvious.

Even when he declared himself the grandson, it might not be like this.

Seeing his cousin like this, Li Jinglong didn't speak, even Huang Zicheng was silent.

Li Jinglong and Huang Zicheng are more aware of the meaning of such treatment.

This shows that His Majesty's thoughts are already very obvious.

It won't take long for Zhu Yunqi's position as grandson to disappear.

As far as the agreed September canonization is concerned, there is no hope at all.

Zhu Yunwen saw the silence of his cousin and husband, and he understood the current situation in his heart.

A deep sense of powerlessness made Zhu Yunqi slump on the seat.

After a long while, he asked unwillingly: "Is there no other way, is there no way at all, can I just watch him take away everything that originally belonged to me?"

Facing Zhu Yunqi's three repeated questions, Li Jinglong and Huang Zicheng looked at each other subconsciously, but remained silent.

In the huge Hall of Spring Harmony, there was silence.

As dusk approached, in front of the gate of the capital, Sapphire finally arrived after more than ten days of traveling.

In fact, Sapphire could have arrived yesterday, but Sapphire on the road deliberately slowed down the schedule and arrived at dusk.

Because only when he arrives at the capital at this point, can he avoid entering the palace directly to meet His Majesty.

I was able to have one night to understand what happened in the capital recently.

Although Lan Yu is arrogant and domineering, she is actually cautious.

It sounds contradictory, but in fact, in this social environment, there is no conflict.

After receiving the news of the death of Prince Zhu Biao, Lan Yu has become vigilant, because he has lost the most important backer in the palace.
