Carrying AK into Ming Dynasty

Chapter 62
Zhu Cijiong, the younger brother of the prince Zhu Cihong, was named king in the 16th year of Chongzhen. It stands to reason that if he was named king, he should move out of the palace and live in the palace.

But here lies the problem. The imperial court couldn’t help being poor, and Chongzhen’s internal funds could run away with rats, so there was no money left to build the palace. Even though the 13-year-old Zhu Cijiong won the title of King Ding, he has been living in the palace.

Ordinarily, at the age of 13 and with the status of a noble prince, he should be eating, sleeping and playing Doudou without any worries. At most, he has just sprouted a rebellious mentality.

However, as a royal heir, he lived in this deep palace compound since he was a child, and it seems that he has nothing to do except fight for power and profit. Zhu Cijiong is such a precocious child.

Born of the same mother, why can he be the crown prince, why can he be superior to others, and why can he be placed in high hopes by the emperor, just because he was born two years earlier?

Although his imperial brother Zhu Cihong has been kind and treated him well since he was a child, but Zhu Cijiong is not convinced deep in his heart. He thinks that he is smarter than the emperor's brother, and that seat should be his...

Feeling something strange, Liu Hongjian explained the situation to Chongzhen. Chongzhen frowned, but agreed.

Having obtained the will, Liu Hongjian went to Dongsan House where King Ding lived temporarily, and suddenly felt a little annoyed.

And he was just suspicious, not sure that King Ding did it, maybe the eunuch named Wu Guigui accidentally contracted the plague himself, or maybe Xiao Dezi had a grudge against that servant?

Who can tell, let's go and see.

The Dongsan Institute was some distance away from Duanben Palace, and it took Liu Hongjian nearly 10 minutes to get there.

Zhu Cijiong was practicing calligraphy in the hall, looking very leisurely and comfortable. Seeing Uncle An coming, he quickly put down his pen and went to meet him.

After all, he was a prince, so Liu Hongjian went forward and saluted before explaining his intention.

"An Guobomo is talking about the eunuch of the palace, the young noble son! That bastard dared to steal the utensils in the palace of the king yesterday, and he was killed by the king's order..."

Zhu Cijiong's tone was calm when he spoke, and he didn't seem guilty or flustered, but it was precisely because of his calmness that Liu Hongjian suspected that King Ding must have something to do with this matter.

For a teenager, it's okay to kill someone, even if he stole your things, he should at least show his anger!

Then he followed King Ding to look at Xiao Guizi's body, probably before he could deal with it, Xiao Guizi was still in a small woodshed.

Liu Hongjian went up to take a closer look. Little Guizi was covered in blood from his back to his legs. It seemed that he had been crucified to death, and there was no sign of plague on his body.

This is even more suspicious, either Xiao Dezi has contacted other suspicious people, or... this is a well-planned conspiracy.

Liu Hongjian's face remained unchanged. He didn't expect someone to get the stolen goods at the same time. After all, even a boy in his teens should know how to destroy corpses and wipe out traces, let alone a prince who has been accompanied by tricksters since he was a child.

Liu Hongjian didn't say much, just saluted King Ding and left the hall of King Ding.

Alas, for the sake of power, even the same mother and younger brother can be ruthless to murder. Does power really have such a big temptation?Liu Hongjian shook his head with a wry smile, and walked towards Duanben Palace.

As soon as Liu Hongjian turned around and left Dongsan Institute, the smile on Zhu Cijiong's face behind him disappeared. His face was ferocious, and his fists were clenched tightly, as if he had a deep hatred in his heart.

Twice, you ruined my good deeds twice in a row!I thought that if this plan came to fruition, that seat would be in my king's pocket, Uncle An, this king will surely tear you to pieces in the future...

Since the prince Zhu Cihong's condition has just been brought under control, Chongzhen will definitely keep him in the palace for two more days in case the prince's condition changes.

Liu Hongjian didn't say much to Chongzhen, but suggested that Chongzhen allocate money to the Ministry of Industry as soon as possible to build the palace, or that sentence, the court is rich now!

After hearing this, Chongzhen frowned slightly. As an emperor, no one understood the temptation of power better than him, and he never knew the tricks inside.

"An Guobo, you helped me again this time. I just said that whoever cured my prince will be named the prince and Taibao..." Chongzhen concealed the unhappiness in his heart, and thanked Liu Hong with gratitude. gradually said.

"Don't... Your Majesty, you have given enough rewards to your ministers, you see that this minister is now the Earl of Daming, he can't help but be in charge of the Jinyiwei, and he is also training in the army, and he is still a bachelor.

It is estimated that the ministers of the court have already criticized the emperor and the humble ministers, and the ministers have not done any great things, so it is not worth it, not worth it! "

Liu Hongjian was born with no interest in these useless officials, even practicing this pro-military thousand households was for self-protection.

Besides, your reward belongs to this official or that official, so it is a practical reward, such as gold and silver, which are much more impractical than these false names!
Your Majesty, I like that!

Although I was anxious, this occasion is not the time to play tricks, after all, the imperial doctor and the empress are here!
"Hmph! I know in my heart whether you have contributed something, and when what I said never counts, could it be that you despise this official?"

When Chongzhen said this, he glanced at the imperial physicians at the entrance of the hall, as if feeling the emperor's dissatisfaction with them, the waists of several imperial physicians bent even lower.

Seeing that he couldn't escape, Liu Hongjian had no choice but to take another official position that was extremely glorious in the eyes of the courtiers, but tasteless in his eyes.

Alas, people can't help themselves in court!

Perhaps it was because the ancients had never taken antibiotics, the crown prince recovered surprisingly quickly. In just one afternoon, the red bumps on the crown prince's body had subsided, and he was able to get out of bed and walk around.

When Liu Hongjian first entered the Prince's bedroom, Zhu Cihong was already standing by the window, as if he had been waiting for a long time.

"Mr. has relieved Cihong's worries twice, and this time he even saved Cihong's life. Cihong will never forget Mr.'s love!"

The Crown Prince Taibao is an assistant minister of the Eastern Palace. On the surface, it is to teach the prince, but it contains more political benefits. After all, the prince will become the emperor in the future. As the emperor's teacher, there must be many conveniences.

Sun Chengzong is the teacher of Emperor Tianqi. Otherwise, during the Tianqi period, when Sun Chengzong rushed to Liaodong to serve as a supervisor, why did he build the Ningjin line of defense when the court was short of money and the officials opposed it?
As if he knew about the reward his father gave Liu Hongjian, Zhu Cihong immediately thanked Liu Hongjian with the gift of a disciple, but Liu Hongjian avoided him sideways.

Zhu Cihong will be the future emperor, he can cure the crown prince's disease not because of his excellent medical skills, but because the antibiotics of later generations are too good, which made Liu Hongjian earn such an official position for nothing.

Besides, he was only five years older than Zhu Cihong. In terms of knowledge, Zhu Cihong estimated that he could outshine Liu Hongjian by several blocks. He really felt ashamed!

For the next two days, Liu Hongjian was ordered by Chongzhen to stay in this palace. In fact, except for three meals a day for Zhu Cihong to take antibiotics on time, Liu Hongjian did nothing.

Zhu Cihong respected Liu Hongjian very much. As the prince of the East Palace, he naturally knew the name of Liu Hongjian who had saved Ming Dynasty twice.

Now, his life was saved by others, and Zhu Cihong had already regarded Liu Hongjian as Daming's savior in his heart.

Liu Hongjian especially hated restraint. The more Zhu Cihong respected him, the more uncomfortable he felt. After the red bumps on Zhu Cihong's body disappeared, Liu Hongjian left another box of antibiotics and left Duanben Palace in a hurry.

It's still comfortable to stay in the barracks, that's where you can be free, Liu Hongjian thought to himself.

After leaving Duanben Palace, he went to Qianqing Palace again and explained the prince's situation to Chongzhen. The relieved Chongzhen let Liu Hongjian leave safely.

　Thank you for the 1000 coin reward from the fourth uncle of the book friend before his death, and the 100 coin reward from the book friend McDull who is not very stupid. I appreciate it, thank you very much!
