King Xiang of the Red Chamber

Chapter 114

The capital of the gods, forbidden, inside the palace.

Zhu Jingyuan led several scholars and was explaining the newly revised bibliography to the emperor.

Several bachelors took turns to go into battle. After explaining for half an hour, they finally finished the contents of volumes 420 to [-] of Shizu Shilu.

"Father, do you think there is something wrong?" Zhu Jingyuan asked with a bow.

The content of this part of the record is recorded in Zhu Shenzhuo's later years, more than 30 years ago.

On the throne, Zhu Xianming had read the newly revised memorabilia twice, but his brows became more and more wrinkled, which made Zhu Jingyuan's heart hang.

In Zhu Jingyuan's view, the crown prince was defeated, vomited blood and passed out. In Zhu Jingyuan's view, this was the best opportunity. If the crown prince died, he would be able to enter the East Palace as the eldest son.

Of course, the latest news has come, Zhu Jingyuan has come to his senses, and he has handed over the military power to Zhu Jinghong.

Knowing that the fourth child was fine, Zhu Jingyuan, who was quietly celebrating with his wife, dropped two more pieces of porcelain in the study.

In the past few days, Zhu Jingyuan expressed himself redoubled, hoping to seize this best opportunity and let his father replace the useless prince.

"Sixth..."

"Father, tell me!" Zhu Jingyuan smiled apologetically.

"This... seems incomplete!" Zhu Xianming put down the book.

"what?"

Zhu Jingyuan was stunned, and then looked at the few scholars behind him, hoping that they would give an explanation.

He, Zhu Jingyuan, deserves the credit for compiling the book, but if something goes wrong, the blame must be borne by the people below.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the ministers and others have consulted the notes on daily life, read the memorials from the 28th year of Zhang Wu to the 31st year of Zhang Wu, and also asked the old ministers of the Zhang Wu years, just now..."

Before the scholar could finish speaking, he heard Zhu Xianming ask: "So you think that what I said was wrong?"

Hearing this, the few scholars dared not argue, they knelt down and kowtowed to plead guilty.

"Whether it's daily life notes or memorials to and from comments, it's hard to fully present the great achievements of the ancestors!"

"You can't just stare at these, you have to ask more questions and check more, don't think about submitting manuscripts in a hurry, just deal with errands!"

Although the emperor's tone was calm, it also made the bachelors present panic.

Hastily submitted the manuscript and dealt with it... If this matter is serious, it is a crime of disrespect.

"When you go back, you must read the stories of the ancestors carefully, and make sure to check for omissions and fill in the gaps, and strive for perfection... Retire!"

"Yes!"

The bachelors kowtowed and left, and only dared to wipe off the sweat on their foreheads when they left the hall. They all looked like survivors after a catastrophe.

But Zhu Jingyuan, who stayed in the main hall, was full of doubts at the moment.

He has been deeply involved in the newly revised Shizu Shilu from the beginning to the end, and he really can't think of those omissions.

"Could it be that I have behaved too much these two days and the old man wants to beat me?" Zhu Jingyuan muttered in his heart.

Just as he was thinking wildly, he only heard the emperor say: "Lao Liu, when the memoir of the ancestors is ending, you must be cautious and not slack in the slightest!"

"Father, we have checked Shizu's daily life notes and memorials of the past, and we have also asked about the civil and military officials of Shizu's grandfather..."

"My son is dull, I really don't know what is wrong, I hope my father will make it clear!"

By leaving Zhu Jingyuan alone, Zhu Xianming did it to make it clear. After all, he would not be able to hide his eminent emperor's face when he said something in front of outsiders.

"In the 28th year of Zhang Wu, I was only 15 years old at the time, and it was the first time that I went to conquer Rakshasa with my grandfather..."

"The situation of the ice and snow that year is still vivid in my mind..."

Speaking of this, Zhu Xianming also showed nostalgia, as if he was really immersed in the memory.

"That was the first time I went to battle. Grandfather gave me [-] soldiers from the capital camp to fight against the Raksha Kingdom's [-] soldiers..."

"I achieved a great victory in the first battle, and the Rakshasa army was defeated and retreated, beheading [-] ranks. This battle is the first battle of the Northern Expedition, so our army's morale is greatly boosted..."

"The ancestor's sacred heart was greatly comforted. He gave me a jar of imperial wine in public, and said to all the generals: With this grandson, the world will be safe!"

After saying this, Zhu Xianming looked at his son who was still thinking, and said in a deep voice: "Is there any record of these things in the record?"

Regarding Zhu Xianming's victory in the first battle, there is indeed a record in the daily notes, but there is only the sentence "Huangsun Ming led the troops in the first battle, and defeated the soldiers of the Rakshasa", and it has been selected into the record.

But giving wine and praising it in public is really not mentioned in the daily notes.

But for Prince Li who was exterminated, the ancestors often praised him, but they were deleted in the record.

If you really want to talk about it, the title of "Holy Grandson" is suitable for Prince Li Zhu Xiankun.

But after thinking about it for a while, Zhu Jingyuan knew what to do, he could do whatever he liked with his father or not.

"My son understands, this is indeed our negligence, and I hope the emperor will forgive me!" Zhu Jingyuan immediately admitted his mistake.

"Cultivate the book well, the great achievements of the ancestors, you should read them carefully, don't neglect!"

I'm afraid it's your great achievements... Zhu Jingyuan complained in his heart.

He already understood the emperor's intentions. Starting from the 28th year of Zhang Wu, Zhu Xianming will appear more frequently in the records.

At this moment, Zhu Jingyuan couldn't help complaining to himself that such a good way of flattering was actually ignored by him, it really deserves to be damned.

At this moment, a young eunuch entered the hall, handed a memorial to the eunuch in the hall, and finally Cheng Ying brought it to Zhu Xianming.

"Your Majesty, this is the good news from Jinling!"

Zhu Xianming immediately opened it to see that he was still very concerned about the situation in Jinling.

When he saw that under the coordination of Zhu Jinghong, all the Japanese pirates had been wiped out, Zhu Xianming could be said to be shocked.

At the same age of 15, he only led [-] soldiers back then, and it took all his efforts to defeat the Raksha people.

But this old thirteen, who has commanded more than [-] troops, is in charge of suppressing bandits in the land of Jinling, and it will be over in three days...

In comparison, Zhu Xianming's proud victory in the first battle suddenly became unsatisfactory.

After all, being able to command so many troops and wipe out the Japanese pirates so efficiently is also a manifestation of ability and ability.

Putting down the report, Zhu Xianming teased slowly: "This old thirteen, I used to underestimate him!"

When he learned that Zhu Jinghong was commanding the army three days ago, he issued another decree, asking him not to act recklessly, and to return the military power to Jinling Dusi.

Presumably by the time the imperial decree was issued, the suppression of the Japanese in Jinling had already ended.

"Father, what's the matter?" Zhu Jingyuan was very curious.

Zhu Xianming replied: "Old Shisan wiped out the Japanese pirates!"

"Ah? Old Thirteen, just him?" Zhu Jingyuan looked surprised.

Zhu Jinghong's virtues are all too clear to him, it's a joke for such a fool to lead the army, but he actually got things done neatly.

I have to find some fault for him, Zhu Jingyuan thought to himself.

So Zhu Jingyuan smiled and said: "Father, although the old thirteen is a bit reckless, he has some talent in martial arts, and he can be a general in the future!"

To be able to be a general in the future is tantamount to saying that he is not suitable to be a prince.

"If he can get rid of his reckless temper and continue to study honestly, his future will be limitless!"

Not only is it limitless, if Zhu Jinghong becomes such a person, he will be Zhu Jingyuan's primary enemy.

The fourth child was really lucky to pull the thirteenth child over. I can't just sit back and watch... Zhu Jingyuan thought to himself.

"Even if the old thirteen can't be brought to my side, the relationship between the two of them must be messed up!" Zhu Jingyuan made up his mind.

Although he was afraid of Zhu Jinghong again, but if the other party was still a reckless and foolish person, Zhu Jingyuan still wouldn't care too much.

Pulling Zhu Jinghong to him is the choice to maximize the benefits.

"Let him study honestly, hehe...it's better to let the sun come out from the west!" Zhu Xianming said with a cold face.

Seeing that the old man still looked down on the old thirteen, Zhu Jingyuan felt relieved, how could a reckless martial artist participate in the competition for the big position.

"Father, it's lucky to have the thirteenth brother, otherwise, I don't know how the fourth brother will clean up the mess in Jinling!"

At this time, Zhu Jingyuan did not forget to apply eye drops to his brother.

"Fourth...he has never done anything!"

Speaking of this, Zhu Xianming's face was full of disappointment, which made Zhu Jingyuan feel secretly refreshed.

At this time, Cheng Ying reminded: "Your Majesty, there is still a report from Jin Yiwei!"
