Daming: Let you do your best to manage, do you go to health?

Chapter 137 The people's heart is the world.

Looking at these contents, Zhu Zhanji felt a little settled.

At the same time, my heart became more melancholy.

After all, the old man was still thinking about his grandson before he died. The will and the military force were all arranged, but he didn't even see the old man for the last time.

Thinking of this, I can't help feeling a little regretful in my heart.

There is also his own father, who was still teaching him the way to be a king in the last period of time before his death.

As a king, you should have the world in mind, and you should not only have interests but no right and wrong in your heart.

Army, system, decree, court.

These are all necessary for the formation of a country.

But if there are only these, it will not work.

Morality, family and country feelings, benevolence and righteousness, these are also possessed by the monarch.

With so many people in a country, no matter how perfect the system, no matter how perfect the law is, no matter how powerful the army is, it cannot control the hearts of the people.

What's more, the army, system, and laws are all born out of the people of the world, so naturally they cannot defeat the people of the world.

Blindly only know how to be brave and ruthless, and only have interests in mind, but forget about benevolence, righteousness and morality. If you lose the hearts of the people, you will lose the world.

Using the public instrument of state power for selfish purposes will cause problems sooner or later.

These are the principles his father taught him.

At the same time, his father also spent his whole life explaining this truth to him.

No matter how strong the Ming Dynasty is, no matter how powerful the Ming army is, its firearms and cannons surpass the times, but if the army's morale is in chaos, everything will be lost.

The morale of the army is not the expression of the hearts of the people in the world.

The northern conquest of Mobei was caused by Mongolian tribes raiding the frontier.

The world returns to the heart.

This is the right way.

However, if the Ming Dynasty is under successive years of wars and the people have no food to eat, and they have to fight a civil war because of the Zhu family after the Northern Expedition, the hearts of the world will be lost.

His father Zhu Gaochi had said this repeatedly several times.

War is not to be taken lightly.

It can be prepared, but not fought.

Conspiracies and tricks can't achieve great things. If you want to be emperor, you have to put the people of the world first.If not, what difference does it make if the people sitting on the dragon chair are Mongols, Oirats, or people from our old Zhu family?
What does it matter to the people?
Everything should be discussed first, if the discussion is inappropriate, then talk about it!
Repeated talks, repeated concessions, until at last it is absolutely necessary to fight, and then send troops.

Power is a public tool.

What is a public device?

That's not a family thing.

Whatever you do, let the world see that you have the sincerity to solve this problem, this is the right way!

The country does not follow the right path, and no one supports you.

If you do not show favor to the people, no one will love you.

It's easy to be aggressive and aggressive, but learning to be angry, forgiving, and tolerant is the hardest part!

When listening to his father's words at the beginning, Zhu Zhanji thought of all kinds of future generations. Wouldn't it be as good as what his father said in his father's mouth, let the world, let the world see that you have the sincerity to solve problems.

Responsible and responsible.

If you don't get angry, if you don't suffer, if you don't tolerate it, is this a responsibility?

If temperance is no longer critical, is it just a responsibility?
Without these two, how is it different from others.

How different from those thieves who burned, killed and looted.

If you just want to be a monarch in a peaceful place, it's easy.

The thief dares to commit, kill the thief.

Whoever dares to deceive will be punished even if he is far away.

But if you want to sit in that position, you must never lose the two.

What's more, the later generations are far inferior to the enemy bandits.

Just like today, the 500,000 elites of the Ming Dynasty, if Zhu Zhanji, the grandson, is no different from the two outsiders, he only cares about interests, but he has no kindness in his heart, and does not put the people of the world first.

What's the difference with them?
The 500,000 troops outside are powerful, outsiders, the people of the world, why not help them and destroy him, the grandson?

Wouldn't it be better and more appropriate?

Just like Jing Nan back then, if it wasn't for Jianwen's lack of benevolence and righteousness, he blindly cut down the feudal clan forcefully, if it wasn't for the old man Zhu Di who has always had a virtuous name.

If the battle of Jingnan can be won, there will be ghosts.

If the old man is the same as that Jianwen, instead of praising the emperor's stinky feet, he should praising Yan Wang who has been pretending to be crazy for many years?
Looking at today's situation, if there is no name of benevolence and righteousness of Zhu Zhanji's father, Prince Zhu Gaochi.

Will the court order be useful when it reaches the Shanhaiguan Pass?

With an army of 500,000, who doesn't know who will fight and who will lose?
If the world cares about his interests, as long as his second uncle and third uncle give an order, no one will dare to fight wherever he goes.

Those officials and generals may still be able to make a difference.

But they understand that for generals and ministers, loyalty comes first.

So it will be.

But his great-grandson, future emperors will not obey these rules that are not written in the decree, who in the world will obey.

Thinking of what his father had said before his death, Zhu Zhanji, who was standing there, gradually became concerned.

Although this battle has not yet begun.

He didn't start the fight either, but he already had a calculation in his heart.

What to do, what not to do, after thinking about what my father said before he was alive, he knew it in his heart.

This battle, which seems to be fought against the army, is actually completely different.

If an army of 500,000 could take down such a large territory of the Ming Dynasty, there would not be a battle that lasted more than a dozen, dozens, or even hundreds of years in history.

The Spring and Autumn and Warring States period lasted 500 years.

If it were that easy, these histories would not exist.

The later generation, Ade, has already unified the world.

Also talk about spirit, talk about doctrine, talk about belief.

"Get up."

After the messenger in front of him got up, Zhu Zhanji said again: "It's been a hard journey, go down to receive the reward and rest."

Hearing this, the messenger immediately shouted: "Thank you, Your Highness, Grandson!"

After he finished speaking, he went out.

And after that person left, the ministers at the side all smiled and said: "The emperor's edict came at the right time. With this edict, the imperial court can stand firm in righteousness."

"yes."

"It's still the emperor's sage, yes."

"."

Listening to the words of the people around him, Zhu Zhanji was not at all happy.

After trying to understand the truths his father had told him, Zhu Zhanji understood that this battle must not be fought like this.

Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanji didn't delay, and immediately waved to everyone. After coming to the desk and sitting down, he reached for the brush and said, "Yang Shiqi!"

Hearing this, Yang Shiqi hurried to the front and replied, "The minister is here."

"I order you to immediately raise 3 altars of good wine from Shuntian Mansion, 2 heads of cattle and sheep each, [-] million liang of silver, and [-] million catties of fine rice, and order them to be sent outside the customs immediately, and spread the word to the three armies. This is the crown prince's reward." Those of the armed forces, let them eat and drink well!"

"In addition, based on all the previous battle reports and military achievements, your Ministry of War drafted a list of generals to be rewarded overnight, and submitted it to the Ministry of Households for review."

Hearing this, Yang Shiqi was still in a daze, not understanding what happened to His Highness the Grandson all of a sudden.

Just now I was saying that the soldiers outside the pass are running out of food and grass, if they are trapped outside the pass, they will be able to defeat the enemy one day.

But now His Royal Highness Taisun suddenly wants to reward him again.

Isn't this the enemy?

However, Zhu Zhanji obviously didn't give him too much time to think, so he frowned and asked, "Did you hear that?"

Although Yang Shiqi felt that His Highness the Grandson's method was inappropriate, he did not dare to disobey His Highness the Grandson in front of so many people. In addition, he hadn't figured out the situation yet, so he could only quickly bow and reply: "The humble minister takes orders!"

At the same time that Yang Shiqi replied, Zhu Zhanji also said to the Minister of the Ministry of Officials again: "Wang Zhi!"

"Chen is here!"

"Order your official department to prepare things in advance according to the list of rewards prepared by the Ministry of War overnight. I only give you one day. Before it gets dark tomorrow, the troops of the imperial court must go on the road."

"Yes!"

Finally, Zhu Zhanji looked at the Minister of Rites and said, "Lu Zhen!"

"Chen is here!"

"The emperor's funeral will be held immediately, and a decree will be delivered to the vassals of the world, ordering them to go to Beijing to worship immediately after receiving the decree!"

Following Zhu Zhanji's words, the officials present hesitated and said, "Your Highness, the death of the emperor is not a trivial matter. If you announce it to the world so rashly, you may cause heresy!"

However, Zhu Zhanji didn't care about the words of those cabinet scholars, and said: "The emperor's death, how can such a major event be hidden from the past? As the emperor's grandson, if I don't even know about the emperor's grandfather's death." Hiding the truth from the people of the world, from the vassal kings from all over the world, what would they think? What would they think? Could it be that we want to close the door and become emperor ourselves? Not even telling our own family?"

Whether it is emotional or reasonable, this matter does not make sense.

So Zhu Zhanji didn't give them any chance to refute at all.

"Okay, there is no need to discuss this matter again, you just follow it."

Seeing this and seeing Zhu Zhanji's firm attitude, it was difficult for everyone present to say anything.

After all, the grandson in front of them is not an ordinary grandson. Their grandson has a firm mind. Once a decision is made, no one else can persuade him.

This can be seen from the past when he was in prison.

At that time, he was only an eldest grandson who had just received the responsibility of supervising the country. He was the one who dared to strip off the official clothes of the chief minister appointed by the emperor himself and throw them back to sober up.

Although it has nothing to do with self-willedness, and can listen to other people's persuasion, once a decision is made, others cannot persuade it.

Lu Zhen, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, immediately shouted: "Your servant, take orders!"

After hearing this, Zhu Zhanji also added: "I will draw up the decree to be passed on to the vassal princes everywhere, and you only need to prepare other things."

"Yes!"

After explaining these things, Zhu Zhanji thought about it carefully, and finally said to the household secretary Xia Yuanji: "Xia Yuanji."

"The minister is here."

"Decree to all prefectures and counties in the world, from now on, the imperial court will pay five insurances and one housing fund for officials in all prefectures and counties in the world, and formulate corresponding salary subsidies according to the rank of officials. In addition to officials, craftsmen, soldiers, and doctors who have entered the imperial court , servants, etc., all paid together.”

After Zhu Zhanji finished speaking, Xia Yuanji immediately said: "Your Highness, the Ministry of Households cannot meet the extra expenses of so many people!"

But Zhu Zhanji said: "Don't worry, most of the expenses are paid by the internal treasury. The household department only needs to pay a part of the amount every year, and the amount will not be too large."

Hearing this, Xia Yuanji could accept it, but he still said: "However, Your Highness, it's the time now, is it still useful to do these things?"

What Xia Yuanji meant was obvious.

Now that the emperor has passed away, the world is about to be in chaos, and the king of Han and Zhao may lead his army to attack. Is there any use in doing these things to please people at this time?
In fact, it was not only Xia Yuanji who thought this way, but most of the people present also thought this way.

But Zhu Zhanji just smiled and said: "It's never too late to do things to win people's hearts. Besides, the salaries of my court officials, workers, craftsmen, etc. are not high, and the court should do these things. All right, let's go down." Go on errands."

Hearing this, after all the people present looked at each other, they said goodbye to Zhu Zhanji.

Seeing everyone leave, Zhu Zhanji's face became deserted again.

In fact, Zhu Zhanji didn't say a word.

"In any case, no matter when, as long as the second and third uncles haven't chopped off Zhu Zhanji's head, he will let the world see that Zhu Zhanji is on the throne, and the King of Han What is the difference between King Zhao being above the throne?"

Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanji turned his head and glanced at the passage leading to the backyard.

Although he intends to visit his mother first at this time, he also understands that he has more important things to do at this time.

Immediately, he said to Zhu Zhanyong, the only remaining third child in the field, and the current Yin Guo Ji of Shuntian Mansion, "Third child, go to the backyard to see your mother, don't make her too sad, you go and accompany her."

Hearing this, the youngest Zhu Zhanyong immediately nodded and headed towards the backyard.

And Zhu Zhanji also looked at the last person in the field, Guo Ji, and said, "Guo Ji."

Hearing this, Guo Ji hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "The minister is here."

"Now you are in charge of the city defense army in the capital?"

Guo Ji nodded, and said: "If you go back to His Highness, you must follow the power urgently, and the errands given by the imperial court."

Zhu Zhanji nodded and said, "If that's the case, that's just right. When I came back, I saw that the city defense officers and soldiers on the city were two or three times the usual number, but is that so?"

Guo Ji nodded immediately, and replied, "Exactly."

"Okay, go and get the people down. There are so many people standing on it, it's frightening. Even if the army really attacks, these people can't resist anything. Just arrange them up at that time. There's no need to be like this at this time .”

"In addition, the entry and exit of the capital will return to normal tomorrow morning. The city gates can be closed at any time. It is the same as in the past and cannot be changed without authorization."

Although Guo Ji didn't understand what Zhu Zhanji was thinking, but thinking of the means of His Royal Highness in the past, he knew that His Royal Highness must have his reasons for doing so, so he immediately replied: "Minister, take orders!"

Zhu Zhanji nodded and said: "Okay, let's go to the errands, and go to rest after finishing the work, some are busy these days."

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern!"

After everyone in the hall left, Zhu Zhanji heaved a long sigh of relief.

But no matter how tired he was, he still took a brush from the table and started writing on the white paper.

"Emperor Grandson Zhu Zhanji has an audience."

"My nephew, Zhu Zhanji, was ordered by the prince to go to meet the emperor. On the way, he received an urgent report from the capital. The emperor passed away on the way back to Beijing. He hurried back. He had just entered the capital, but he heard that his father, the prince, had died of illness."

"My nephew is terrified."

"Recalling the days when I was with the emperor and the prince when I was young, I was close to having fun and joy, but far from the right way. I only acted with joy in my heart, not about right and wrong in the world, and I knew nothing about the way of being a king. Now the emperor and prince have passed away one after another. My nephew My son was restless, and I realized all the right and wrong of the past, and I couldn't help but sweat profusely, deeply regretting it."

"The emperor personally led the army to win the northern expedition, which is an indelible feat for the Ming Dynasty. However, it is the sorrow of the Ming Dynasty and an ominous omen that he died on the way to victory."

"Not to mention that the northern army is waiting for an opportunity to counterattack, and there are also people who are not ministers in all states and counties in the world."

"I want to divide the territory of my Ming Dynasty and destroy the foundation of my Zhu family."

"Before the implementation of the New Deal, although my nephew had the emperor's approval, saying that this was the foundation of the Ming Dynasty for a hundred years, but acting at a young age was unavoidable, and all the gentry in the world hated my nephew to the bone."

"This time the emperor passed away, the crown prince passed away, my nephew was terrified, but looking around, I saw that the world is full of ambitious people, and there is no one to rely on."

"After thinking about it, I only think that all the uncles can help my nephew."

"I want to invite my uncle back to the capital to pay homage to the emperor and the crown prince, and at the same time, to bring peace to the world."

"If the heavens let me be the king for ten years, I will follow the example of the prince, take the hearts of the people as my own heart, take the people's thoughts as my own thoughts, rest with the people, and bestow favors on the world. My uncle's kindness, my nephew will definitely remember it."

"The book is not full of words, and I can't come in person. I hope uncle will not be offended."

"Nephew, Zhu Zhanji, grandson of the emperor."

The moment he picked up the pen, Zhu Zhanji checked it carefully again and again. After several revisions and confirmation, he called the guard outside the door and ordered him to hand over the contents of the book to the Ministry of Rites.

He was ordered to transcribe it again and send it to the hands of princes everywhere.

After writing this letter, Zhu Zhanji also picked up his pen again and began to write letters to his second and third uncles.

This time, it was simpler.

No nonsense either.

He only said that the agreement between Ming and his second uncle still counts, regardless of victory or defeat, the other party's life will be spared.

At the same time, the second and third uncles were persuaded to return to Beijing with the emperor's bones.

Now that the emperor has passed away, the ceremony should be buried in the earth.

As a descendant, even if there are any conflicts and struggles, the emperor should be buried first.

At the same time, the news of the prince's death was also informed to the other party.

Although this matter cannot be announced to the world now, but this kind of matter cannot be hidden from the second uncle and third uncle. Instead of letting them find out, it is better to tell the other party frankly.

After writing these, after preparing everything.

Zhu Zhanji is still sitting on the chair where his father Zhu Gaochi usually sits, thinking deeply about the overall situation.

Finally, no matter how late the night is.

He ordered someone to call Yang Shiqi over again.

To the north, outside Shanhaiguan.

Of the 500,000 Northern Expedition Army, in addition to leaving 45 soldiers and horses in the north of the Great Wall, the remaining [-] soldiers and horses have already sent troops outside Shanhaiguan at this moment.

Inside the Chinese army camp.

Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui frowned and said to the second Han Wang Zhu Gaoxu next to him: "What does this stinky boy mean? The old man died of illness on the way, is this what we want to see? He is good, and now he doesn't even let us go home. !"

Listening to the chatter of the third child, the second child Zhu Gaoxu just smiled, and then said: "Now that the entire 500,000 Ming army is in our hands, what do you think that kid is worried about us?"

After hearing the second child's words, the third child Zhu Gaosui's face tightened, and he asked, "Second child, tell me the truth, do you really have such thoughts in mind?"

But the second child, Zhu Gaoxu, asked instead: "What do you think? Don't you know what I'm thinking?"

Maybe the youngest Zhu Gaosui said: "I know? What do I know? You and that kid wish to wear a pair of trousers. What can I know? You two are sitting together for a drink at this moment. I don't find it strange."

After hearing what the third child said, the old man Wang Zhu Gaoxu sat on the chair, thought carefully, and said solemnly: "Third brother, if your brother really wants to take the seat of the old man, what do you say?"

Feeling the expression on the second child's face, the third child pretended to be ignorant and said, "Whatever I say, I won't say anything."

The second child Zhu Gaoxu said again: "Don't you really want to be your prince for the rest of your life?"

The second child Zhu Gaosui was not confused about this, and said to his second brother in the same serious manner: "Second brother, don't fool me, you also know that I am a prince now, if I follow you to rebel, I will also be a prince in the future My lord, it makes no difference to me."

"So I didn't think much about it from the beginning. But everyone in the world knows that my third child is your second master's party. If your second child really wants to try, I will accompany you. But there are some things we can First of all, if you really take over the country in the future, you can't kill people from our old Zhu's family, let alone my third child!"

Hearing what the third child said, Zhu Gaoxu nodded.

Just looking at his expression now, it seems that even he hasn't really made up his mind yet.

Otherwise, the Shanhaiguan would have started fighting long ago.

"Okay, no matter what happens, we are not the only ones who have the final say in this army. The British Duke Zhang Fu and Chen Mao don't dare to say that they will listen to us. You will go to these troops in a while. All the generals called over, let’s have a drink first and then talk.”

The third brother Zhu Gaosui naturally understood the meaning of his second brother's words.

Nowadays, many generals in this army have nothing to do with the two brothers. No matter whether they want to rebel or not, they must first find out their attitude.

Hearing this, the third child Zhu Gaosui also nodded, and followed the second child's words.

And Zhu Gaoxu, the King of Han who stayed in the camp of the Chinese army, sat on that chair with a sullen face.

"Eldest nephew, elder nephew, if the old man is really determined to establish your father or you as emperor this time, I really can't say anything after you succeed to the throne, but now that the old man died so suddenly, then you can't I blame my second uncle. But don’t worry, your second uncle will not take your father’s life and your life, but your second uncle must try for the throne.”

Just as the court, including the barracks, were planning their own plans.

Day two.

Not far from Shanhaiguan, in a county town.

Two old men were sitting in the farmyard, playing chess.

"I said how you kid can play this strange chess, it's boring, you can't play it anymore."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pushed the chessboard into chaos.

Seeing this scene, the big fat man sitting across from him was taken aback for a moment, but then he understood something, shook his head, and said, "Father, you said you've been messing around all your life, and now you're playing chess in your leisure time, why are you still messing around?" Ah. If you lose, you lose, and you still don’t admit it.”

Hearing this, the old man on the opposite side immediately stared at his eyes and said: "Why, look at your father, I am not the emperor now, dare to talk to your father like this? Why don't you admit it? The strange chess you played by yourself is boring, who would love it?" Come with you, who are you going to find?"

Regarding his father's words, the fat man smiled helplessly.

"Look at you, didn't you say this yourself? Since you are not the emperor, you should enjoy the happiness of human relations like an ordinary old man? Did you say that there are no rules here? Now you say this."

The old man immediately waved his hand and said: "Okay, okay, your mouth is full of truth all day long, and everything you say makes sense in your mouth, okay, I can't say no to you, I can't beat you, okay right?"

Looking at the child-like father in front of him, the big fat man suddenly smiled.

If there were people from the imperial court here at this time, they would be so surprised that their eyeballs would fall out.

Because the two sitting beside the chessboard in the small farmyard at this time are the current emperor Zhu Di, and the crown prince, Zhu Gaochi.

The two who were supposed to die, appeared here as if they had seen a ghost.

When the prince Zhu Gaochi, who had been laughing for a while, came back to his senses, he still said with some concern: "Father, although I agree with your idea, my son, I always feel that something is wrong. Is this too much of a joke? You alone Your Majesty, I, a prince, made this fake death, if the world knows about it, I'm afraid it will make the future generations laugh."

Facing the words of the boss, the old man Zhu Di said indifferently: "Isn't it a suspended animation? What's so ridiculous? Besides, if that kid does a good job, then he is not suspended animation. You guys, you are not doing it all day long. Do you despise your father and me for messing around? Now the emperor, I will quit and let your son do it, isn't that okay?"

Regarding this, the prince Zhu Gaochi also said helplessly: "Father, you know my son, I don't mean that. I mean, an emperor and a prince are suddenly gone. Do you think that kid can withstand the pressure? And the old man The second and the third child, what if they really use their knives and guns."

After all, Zhu Gaochi is Zhu Zhanji's biological father. No matter how strict he was when he educated Zhu Zhanji, he is his son after all. The old man doesn't feel bad, he does.

But the old man also said: "That kid in your family is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Don't think that I am old and faint. You are doing all the things behind the scenes. It's just the second child and the old man. Can those two bastards be that kid's opponent? Besides, I left more than half of the Fifth Army Battalion and the entire Shenji Battalion for your kid."

"Don't say anything else, let's just say that it's really on the battlefield, and your kid won't suffer!"

Hearing his father's words, Zhu Gaochi also said helplessly: "Father, that's not what my son said. I know you left an army for that kid. But after all, these are all imperial court troops. It's not good to die alone, right?"

However, Zhu Di sneered, and said: "Dead? Is he dead? When it's time to use a knife or a gun, I really want to take a good look and see who dares to move! The second and third child I told them After that, if they really dare to do something this time, it happens that I, as a father, have a reason."

Listening to his father's words, Zhu Gaochi still felt a little inappropriate.

"Father, you are pretending to die. Are you still in command of the army? When the time comes, there will be a real fight. You dead emperor, who will obey your orders?"

Faced with his son's doubts, the old man Zhu Di said indifferently: "Don't look at the old man, I am not the emperor now, but if you want to talk about the 500,000 army, as long as my old man speaks out, the second and third will be a soldier." It can’t even be adjusted! Is it true that I’m an old man and I’m idling in the rear?”

Seeing that the old man is so confident, he is obviously fully prepared.

Zhu Gaochi wasn't so worried about this anymore, but he said a little puzzled: "Father, since you have made all the arrangements, just order that kid to succeed. Why should we hide here?"

But the old man Zhu Di shook his head, got up and took two steps, and said: "There are some things, we can't see clearly when we sit on the dragon chair, even if the person standing in front of us is a ghost, let alone This is the world. Your little boy is too young, and his talent is good, but it is still too early. So I have to arrange some things for him, old man. "

"This time you, the prince, and I, the emperor, are gone, so you should take a good look here, and let him eradicate all the monsters and monsters in this world at once! Also, when the New Deal was implemented before, there was an old man in charge at that time, Naturally, there won't be any big problems, but it's different now, and I don't know how many people down here hate that kid of yours, and they want to peel him alive."

"Can we leave these disasters to our children and grandchildren?"

After the old man finished speaking, there was still a worry in Zhu Gaochi's heart, and he couldn't help asking: "Father, but if that kid wins, he will also arrest the second and third children, in case he wants to get up What about killing heart?"

Hearing these words, the old man Zhu Di, who had a smug expression just now, suddenly fell silent.

After a moment of silence, he said: "If that kid really wants to do something to his family, you, the prince, will have to live again."

Hearing this, Zhu Gaochi laughed out loud.

Then he said with a smile: "Dad, dad, what do you say you are doing? You just faked your death and came back to life? Aren't you playing with the world? The emperors of all dynasties, which one is the same as you?" Same."

Although Zhu Gaochi knew very well that if Zhu Zhanji really did something to the second and third child, the old man would definitely not let him go.

But at the same time, he is also very clear that his kid will never kill the second and third!
Others don't know, but he, the father, knows.

If that kid would really do this, he didn't know how many chances he had before.

I don't know how many times there are opportunities to get these two directly to Fandi.

But this kid didn't do it.

So now what he said was just a casual question.

At the same time, even if that kid really wanted to kill him, as long as he didn't really kill him, the old man would never really do anything to him.

At most, it would take him by my side to torture him for seven or eight years.

But no matter what, now that things have developed to this point, he doesn't need to think about it anymore.

Naturally, the old man had to worry about this mess.

As for the outside affairs, he, the prince, is already dead, so what else does he care about.

Now is the time to be truly unofficial.

After working hard for a lifetime, it's time to enjoy it.

The only thing I can't bear is that my wife is still kept in the dark, it seems that I have to find a time and find a way to reveal it to her.

"Huang Yan!"

In the yard, the old man Zhu Di suddenly called out.

Soon, Huang Yan who was standing outside the door hurried in.

"emperor!"

Zhu Di nodded and asked, "Is there any news from the palace and outside the customs?"

After thinking for a while, Huang Yan said: "Indeed, His Royal Highness, according to the news sent back, should have arrived in the capital at this time. After discussing with the Ministry of War Minister Yang Shiqi and others, the governor of the Shuntian Prefecture, Guo Ji, transferred the capital to the capital. The city defense force has increased."

"Before that, Yang Shiqi and the Beiwa soldiers who were secretly mobilized by the ministers of the DPRK and China have also arrived at Shanhaiguan."

After Huang Yan finished speaking, Zhu Di was taken aback: "It's gone?"

Huang Yan nodded.

Seeing this, the old man Zhu Di had no choice but to say: "Okay, continue to investigate, whether it is in the capital or outside the pass, if there is any news, we must send it as soon as possible."

"Yes."

After that Huang Yan left, the old man Zhu Di thought about the current situation everywhere, and couldn't help but smiled to the boss beside him: "Boss, what do you think that kid in your family is doing now?"

Zhu Gaochi thought for a while, and then said: "His grandfather and father are both dead, and he is probably crying. Or he is comforting his mother."

Hearing this, the old man Zhu Di nodded noncommittally, but then asked: "Then which one do you think he is more sad about our death?"

Hearing his father, a king, ask such a question that seems like a little woman's mind, he couldn't help laughing: "Father"

Zhu Gaochi, who was about to say something, thought for a while, then smiled and closed his mouth, let the old man go, and then said: "It must be more sad for your death, after all, you brought him by your side since childhood. You are also the one who spoils him the most. But I, the father, put on a straight face before I died, and trained him for more than half a year."

The old man Zhu Di laughed out loud when he heard this.

Thinking that the boss of his family trained that kid for more than half a year before he faked his death, he couldn't help but laugh.

But after laughing, the old man Zhu Di still said: "I don't think anyone cried in that kid."

Zhu Gaochi was stunned when he heard this.

"That boy, I guess he is discussing with the officials of the imperial court how to deal with the second child and the third child. Don't think that your son is usually foolish and ignorant, but when the critical moment comes, that boy's method is not simple. , Sometimes I have to obey even the old man."

When he said this, the old man Zhu Di's face was full of confidence.

But Zhu Gaochi said with a smile after hearing it: "Father, you have quite confidence in that kid."

In the capital.

As the Manchu officials continued to implement Zhu Zhanji's orders, the sky gradually darkened.

According to Zhu Zhanji's words, the team heading to Shanhaiguan will start before dark today.

at the same time.

After Zhu Zhanji called Yang Shiqi back again, the two also discussed the mobilization of the entire Ming Dynasty's internal army overnight.

Although it is not easy to mobilize troops, you must first prepare your troops.

Frontier troops everywhere, those who should change their defenses should also change their defenses quickly.

The troops that can be deployed are also deployed as soon as possible.

Get everything ready before the war breaks out.

And these deliberated methods also require people to go to various places to pass on their orders.

The whole capital is like a machine, under the command of Zhu Zhanji, it is constantly operating.

In the early morning, when Hu Shanxiang, who had slept all night, woke up, he came to Zhu Zhanji's place immediately.

Seeing that he hadn't slept all night and was still busy, he couldn't help but worry in his heart and said: "Your Highness, it's better to go back and rest. Although state affairs are important, you can't hurt your body."

Listening to Hu Shanxiang's words, Zhu Zhanji rubbed his eyes after putting down the folder in his hand, and said with a tired face: "Well, I'll go back now."

"What about Mother? Did you sleep well last night?"

Hearing this, Hu Shanxiang also said with a heavy face: "Mother hasn't closed her eyes since the death of the prince, that is, after you came back yesterday, she fell asleep in the room. I just went there and haven't slept yet." Wake up."

Zhu Zhanji nodded, and said: "I guess I will be very busy these days, and I can't take care of many things at home. You worry about things at home, especially your mother. Don't let her stay alone, and spend more time with her." She, if not, just walk around."

Hu Shanxiang nodded obediently when he heard it.

"By the way, I haven't eaten since I came back yesterday. Ask someone to help me get something to eat. After eating, I'll take a nap for a while. Call me if anyone comes."

"it is good."

Although the plan was good, unfortunately, things backfired.

Zhu Zhanji, who had just eaten something and was about to get up to rest for a while, before he could lie down, a person came outside the door.

"His Royal Highness!"

Although Zhu Zhanji was a little irritable, he still resisted and walked out again, asking, "What's the matter?"

"If you go back to Your Highness, there will be trouble in the palace of the King of Han!"

Hearing this, Zhu Zhanji frowned and said, "Because of something, just tell me, don't wait for me to ask!"

The man was terrified, and hurriedly said: "Before the court ordered people to guard the mansions of King Han and King Zhao, and no one was allowed to enter or leave. Early this morning, the Princess Han in the mansion of the King of Han clamored to see His Highness and King Zhao. Prince, if you say you won't see him, you will commit suicide in the mansion, and now you are in that yard with a dagger in your hand!"

Hearing this, Zhu Zhanji narrowed his eyes and said, "Take care of Hanwang and Zhaowangfu? Who asked them to take care of it?!"

The guard replied: "Cabinet Master Yang and the others."

Obviously the guard didn't know that Zhu Zhanji had just come back.

And Zhu Zhanji also cursed at the moment when he heard this: "Nonsense! The relatives of the emperor, or the Hanwang Mansion and Zhao Wang Mansion of the current dynasty, they are the ones who take care of them as they say!?"

After scolding, Zhu Zhanji would definitely have dealt with Yang Shiqi first if he was on weekdays, but thinking that at this special time, no matter what Yang Shiqi did, his original intention was for him, Zhu Zhanji, so he had to hold it back for the time being. He raised his hand and said, "Lead the way ahead!"

"Yes!"

On the palace of the King of Han.

Just outside the gate of King Han's Mansion, before entering the mansion, Zhu Zhanji heard the noise inside.

　Ask for a monthly pass.
