The journey to the heavens starts from the underground station

Chapter 223 In the Jiming Temple
Maybe it was because the poem yesterday was so stimulating that Zhu Di was deeply moved, so he left the palace in the evening and went to live in Jiming Temple.

Even today's early court is nothing more than ordering civil and military officials, the crown prince, the king of Han, and the king of Zhao to meet him at Jiming Temple.

The eunuch sent by the father specially asked him, saying that His Majesty was in a bad mood, and both the crown prince and the king of Han had been scolded, so he asked the grandson to rush over to relieve the siege.

Li Yu looked up at the sky, and saw that the sun was about to rise to the middle. Today, the Gunpowder Department will not be able to go, and if it is not possible, he will have to be vegetarian for lunch; but he dare not delay, so he ordered the horse to be brought over, and hurried back The prince's mansion took the memorial written yesterday, and then hurried to Jiming Temple.

Different from other temples, Jiming Temple is located on Jiming Mountain in Yingtian City, and it takes half an hour to get there quickly.

Hit the horse to the foot of the mountain, get off the mountain, walk to the mountain gate, enter the Jiming Temple, and see three people kneeling side by side in the courtyard, all sweating from the hot sun, it is Zhu Dapang, Zhu Erhan and Zhu Sanbiao, but fortunately, there are brocade cushions under their knees; and those dozens of civil and military officials who came directly after failing to go to court in the morning are hiding in the shade under the eaves of the side hall, enjoying the coolness while cooling off from a distance. Seeing the excitement of the three brothers of the Zhu family, they all had sullen faces, wanting to laugh but not daring to laugh.

"Father, Second Uncle, Third Uncle, are you busy, where is Grandpa?" Li Yu also suppressed a smile, and stepped forward to salute.

Seeing Li Yu coming, Fatty and Sanbiao hadn't spoken yet, and Erhan, who had a bitter face, immediately came to his spirits: "Oh, big nephew, you are here! Hurry up, hurry up, go in and persuade you Grandpa, if you keep drying like this, your second uncle, no, father, the prince will almost be roasted to death."

"It's okay, my father has a lot of oil, thick flesh, and is sun-resistant. If you sweat a little, you will lose weight. Besides, there are second and third uncles accompanying you!" Li Yu joked.

"Little bastard, don't make sarcastic remarks." Zhu Gaochi wiped the mixture of grease and sweat from his face, and pointed to the Daxiong Palace: "Hurry up, your grandfather is in the wing room behind the hall, go in and say something nice to him."

"It's okay to say good things, but my son has to ask clearly. How did you and the two uncles provoke grandpa? If you don't understand the reason, your son won't be able to open his mouth. If he can't make trouble, he will put himself in it."

"Then who knows." Zhu Gaosui complained suddenly: "Earlier in the morning, the three of us were called by the old man, and we didn't ask anything, and we were punished to kneel by his mother!"

"Even if you are a death row prisoner, you have to know what you have committed! But what about the three of us? Damn, the death is unclear!"

Li Yu rolled his eyes and immediately guessed the approximate reason.

It must be Erhan who caused Jing Nan's orphans. Sanbiao is in charge of Jin Yiwei, so a large group of Jing Nan's orphans sneaked into Ying Tianfu, how dare he say he didn't know?As for the father, he probably belonged to the accompanying bondage. The two younger brothers made mistakes, so he, the elder brother, had to accompany him too.

"Okay, I'll go in and say something good, but I can't guarantee it."

Bypassing the Daxiong Palace, Li Yu went straight to the backyard.There are two Jinyi guards standing guard in front of a wing room, and the old man is probably inside.

The door was not closed, Li Yu adjusted his expression and went in directly.

In the wing room, the sandalwood is elegant and refreshing. An old monk with inverted triangular eyes, but looks kind-hearted is sitting cross-legged on the futon, with his head lowered, holding a white piece in his hand, and laying out a chess record on the board.

Behind the old monk, Zhu Di was lying on his side on the brocade mat, holding a scripture book in his hand, and was reading it intently with a smile on his face.

"Hey?" Li Yu opened his mouth and shouted softly.

The old monk raised his head and pointed behind him.

This old monk Li Yu recognized that it was Zuo Shanshi, the current monk record secretary, the prince's young teacher, monk Daoyan, and the demon monk Yao Guangxiao.

There are two famous monks in the Ming Dynasty. One is naturally the Emperor Taizu who was a beggar and expelled the Tartars. The second is the monk Daoyan who lives in the Jiming Temple.

This is a strange person, proficient in Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism, and also learned the art of yin and yang, assisted Zhu Di, used the land of Yan to fight the whole country, and made suggestions. Jing Nan finally ascended to the throne in four years.

Even, at least half of the reasons for Zhu Di's rebellion were instigated by Dao Yan!

At the beginning of the establishment of the Senglu Department, the Taizu ordered monks who were proficient in Confucianism to take the examination at the Ministry of Rites. Daoyan entered the capital as a Confucian monk, but was not awarded a monk official, and was dismissed only with a monk's robe.

Perhaps feeling slighted?In the 15th year of Hongwu, Dao Yan approached the King of Yan, and followed Zhu Di to Beiping with "Worshiping the King with a White Hat". Since then, he has been tirelessly "talking" with the King of Yan -- Zhu Biao was still alive at that time!
Later, after the success of Jing Nan, Dao Yan did not care about rewards for meritorious deeds. Apart from the official position of Zuo Shanshi, the head of the monk record department, he only had the vain title of Prince Shaoshi.Power, money, and beauty are all floating clouds to him. Except for occasional court visits, the rest of the time, he hides in the temple to worship Buddha and read scriptures.

He encouraged the vassal king to rebel successfully, but he didn't want anything. Li Yu probably understood the monk's thoughts, just to show off his ambitions, and also to prove to Taizu that it was your loss if you didn't hire me back then—look!The poor monk assisted King Yan and overthrew the heir you established!
What the hell is learning literary and martial arts, harming the emperor's family!
"come over!"

At this time, Zhu Di also found Li Yu coming in and beckoned.

Li Yu stepped forward to salute, stood aside after getting up.

"Why did you come here? Didn't you go to the Military Bureau early in the morning? Why? You've chosen everything?"

"Grandpa." Li Yu replied in a low voice: "My father sent someone to send a message saying that Grandpa is in a bad mood and asked me to come and talk to Grandpa."

"Speaking is false, but pleading is the truth." Zhu Di angrily threw away the scriptures: "Forget it, I'm upset and irritable, and I can't even read it."

Li Yu flattered: "Yes, grandpa is a hero on the battlefield, so naturally he can't read these scriptures. However, my grandson has nothing to do and wrote a playbook, and I want to ask grandpa to correct me."

With that said, Li Yu took out the memorial book and presented it.

"Yesterday it was your father who asked to resign the crown prince, but today it is you who asked to resign from the grandson, right?" Woody took it suspiciously, opened it and read it carefully.

However, watching and watching, his face became tense, and tears welled up in his eyes. As the reading progressed, he sighed for a long time. After a while, his face showed joy, and in a blink of an eye, his face was also full of pain.

"Good! Good! Good!" After reading it, Zhu Di closed the playbook with a snap, looked up to the sky and sighed, and refused to speak for a long time; after a cup of tea, he laughed twice, and solemnly put the playbook into his arms , patted Li Yu's shoulder heavily three times, and said with a smile:
"Little monkey, you really learned a lot! You pointed out the problems of the times, and spoke very thoroughly, good! That's great! You really are a good grandson! Grandpa didn't love you for nothing! But, you wrote this, just thinking of coaxing you well." Grandpa, please plead with your father?"

Seeing the old man laughing, Li Yu immediately hit the snake with the stick: "Grandpa, my father is not in good health, he can't kneel for a long time, or, I go outside and kneel for my father?"

"I can't bear it, that's all, let's go and see your two worrying uncles."

After speaking, Zhu Di got up, stretched out his hand to hold Li Yu, and walked out together.

The old man didn't mention his father's fault, and Li Yu became more certain in his heart. It was really Zhu Erhan's fault, and his father was unfortunately implicated.

On the steps of the main entrance of the Daxiong Palace, Jin Yiwei moved a rattan chair, Zhu Di sat on a horse with a golden knife, his eyes were majestic, and he looked forward, while Li Yu stood behind the old man, silently waiting to watch the show.

Under the steps, the three brothers of the Zhu family stood respectfully, waiting for the lecture; behind them, dozens of civil and military officials lowered their heads and stared at their feet.

Zhu Di glanced around majestically, took two deep breaths, and suddenly got up.

"Jianwen! This little bastard!" The old man pointed at the sky and scolded angrily: "Instigated by Huang Zicheng, Qi Tai and other bad guys, he wants to cut down the feudal clan!"

"Prison King Zhou's family in Yingtian, exile King Min, abolish King Dai, put King Qi under house arrest, and force King Xiang to death! Transfer the soldiers to Shuntian, and send some small officials to watch me! Watch me! Do you want to rebel, hehe, hahaha!" Having said this, Zhu Di suddenly laughed angrily.

Behind him, Li Yu also chuckled, feeling anxious about Zhu Yunqi's IQ.

To cut down the feudal clan, he didn't use Qi Tai's strategy to take down the King of Yan with lightning speed, but he listened to Huang Zicheng instead?

Huang Zicheng is really talented!The policy of cutting down the feudal vassals advocated by him should first be small and then big, cut down the small vassals first, give favor to Ning, Yan, and Jin, and paralyze each other?
The three kings are not blind and stupid, you have taken down Qi Minxiang of the Zhou Dynasty, who doesn't know what you want to do! ?

Reading and reading silly goods!
"I was in the pigsty, and I ate pig shit for five months," Zhu Di suddenly withdrew his smile, and said in a sad tone, "I took this world down!"

After finishing speaking, Zhu Di took a few steps forward and came straight to Zhu Gaoxu, staring at him majesticly with a pair of tiger eyes, Zhu Gaoxu unconsciously lowered his head.

"Today, the six ministries, the inspectors, the five temples, the cabinet and the civil and military ministers of the five military governors are all here. In front of them, tell me, when did I tell you that the son is sick, you should encourage him This sentence?"

Hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu gritted his teeth, and his panting became worse unconsciously.

Zhu Di looked at his second son coldly: "Say it!"

Of course Zhu Gaoxu knew what his old man meant, his expression was distorted, he took a few deep breaths, and then he suppressed the anger in his heart, and hummed softly: "The emperor didn't say that."

Zhu Di stared, and suddenly raised the volume: "The emperor didn't hear!!!"

"The emperor didn't say that!!!" Zhu Gaoxu also raised his voice, his voice was sad and indignant: "I'm talking nonsense!!!"

"Paws!"

With great anger in his eyes, Zhu Gaoxu began to slap himself big mouths one after another; Zhu Gaochi frowned, his face full of unbearable, and was thinking of helping to intercede, but the old man grabbed his belt and dragged him forward.

"Father, father, I..." Zhu Gaochi didn't dare to resist, so he had to use the strength of the old man to be dragged up the steps. Just as he was about to say something, the old man pushed him onto the wicker chair.

"sit down!"

"Don't dare...Father..." Zhu Gaochi struggled to get up.

Li Yu hurried forward to help hold the prince down, "Sit down!!" Zhu Di frowned and stared, Zhu Gaochi didn't dare to resist any more, sat curled up awkwardly, and covered his face with the sleeve of his robe, but was caught by Li Yu tear it apart.

Hehe, the old man can pretend, the image of a "cowardly" prince is vividly presented in front of the old man, but no one in the world knows that, except for military affairs, most of the internal and external affairs of the Ming Dynasty are managed by this "cowardly" prince , and well-organized!
Zhu Di turned around and stood on the right side of the prince, Li Yu stood on the left side of the prince, and sat in the middle of the prince.

The emperor, the prince, the great-grandson, and the three generations of grandparents have been passed on endlessly.

"The position of the crown prince has been decided, and the world can be safe!" Zhu Di looked at the ministers, and after speaking, he took two steps forward and descended the steps.

"Today, you have to testify. From now on, if there is any word about our family that the father is unkind and the son is unfilial, they will be arrested and dragged out, beheaded!"

Zhu Gaoxu's face was flushed red, he looked up at his father, then at the prince with hatred, took a deep breath, lifted the hem of his clothes, knelt down heavily with a plop, gritted his teeth, and squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth talk.

"Prince! Wanfu Jinan!"

Knocked his head to the ground.

Zhu Gaosui looked at his second brother, and hurriedly learned to kneel down, prostrating together with the officials.

"Prince Wanfu Jinan!"

After half an hour.

The officials dispersed and went back to the yamen to handle official business; the prince was driven back to the prince's mansion, and the king of Han and the king of Zhao also left angrily. In Jiming Temple, only Zhu Di and Li Yu were left.

Under the shade of the tree, the two sat opposite each other, holding a lamp in one hand and a son in the other, playing chess.

Snapped!Zhu Di lightly dropped a white piece on the chessboard, and got a lot of black pieces.

Li Yu pondered for a moment, grabbed a handful of black and sprinkled it on the chessboard.

"Grandpa is good at chess, but grandson lost."

"You, let me go." Zhu Di smiled kindly: "Your grandfather, I am an expert at war, but this game of chess, after all, is a bit off the mark. I am old, and my brain is not as lively as when I was young."

"Grandpa is not old, but he knows his destiny, and he can still gallop on the battlefield."

Zhu Di was born on April 20, 54 years, and is only [-] years old now.

"You child, if you are good, you don't learn, but you learn how to flatter your father."

Zhu Di cursed with a smile, drank the tea in one gulp, put down the cup, and was about to get up, Li Yu hurried forward to help him.

"Go, take a walk with grandpa."

The grandfather and grandson walked slowly in the monastery. Zhu Di asked Li Yu some political questions from time to time to test Li Yu, and Li Yu answered them one by one.

"...Grandson is right. Then I will test you again. How do you think your second uncle will react after returning this time?" After asking a few more questions, Zhu Di changed the subject and brought the topic to Zhu Erhan body.

"This……"

"Don't hesitate, just gossip with us grandpa and grandson, and say whatever you want."

"Hey, then I'll just say it." Li Yu no longer hesitated, and said bluntly: "According to my grandson's humble opinion, the second uncle's straightforward temper got angry in Jiming Temple today, and he admitted in public that he was talking nonsense ..."

Speaking of this, Li Yu quietly looked at the old man's face, and then continued: "After I go back, I probably won't be able to think about it."

"Why can't you think about it?"

"Second Uncle is a brave general. He is familiar with many soldiers. He also has three guards under his command. My grandson thinks that he is probably good at making dangerous moves, following the example of Tang Taizong Li Shimin."
