King Xiang of the Red Chamber

Chapter 267

Jia Amnesty's gang boasted without limit, and it really wasn't a waste of effort.

Their small circle is the key surveillance target of Dongchang, and their words and deeds have reached Zhu Xianming's ears.

This was the first time since Taiping 17 years ago that this group of people was called together, how could Zhu Xianming not pay more attention.

In fact, according to the original plan for this banquet, Jia She and his group were not included in the invitation.

After reaching a deal with the Supreme Emperor, Zhu Xianming remembered these people, and finally decided to let them be witnesses.

Outside the Fengtian Hall, tables and seats have been set up. Under the guidance of the officials of Honglu Temple, the ministers of civil and military affairs, chieftain envoys of various ministries and alliances, and elders from all over the place sat down one after another.

And a group of clans also left Ningshou Palace ahead of time and went to Fengtian Temple Square, only the three brothers Zhu Jinghong were able to continue to accompany them.

Looking at the extremely close father and son in front of him, Zhu Jinghong couldn't help wondering if his old man had also been time-traveled.

This father and son have never been in touch with each other, and even when they meet, they are reticent. Today, not only is it uncharacteristic, they even talk and laugh, which is really abnormal.

In fact, not only Zhu Jinghong felt puzzled, but also Zhu Jingyuan and the two of them, but they both kept their doubts in their hearts.

"Hahahaha... Fourth brother, you are right... You must pay attention in the future!"

"Father...you can wait a little longer, there are steps ahead!"

Zhu Xianming supported the Supreme Emperor and walked down the steps carefully. The father and son became more and more intimate.

"Could it be that the sun is really coming out from the west?" Zhu Jinghong couldn't help muttering.

In this way, Zhu Xianming and his son appeared in front of the ministers in the state of father's kindness and son's filial piety, which really surprised many people.

Among them, Jia She and others were undoubtedly the ones who were most impacted. They knew the relationship between the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor the most.

Just like yesterday's court celebration, after the Supreme Emperor Zhu Xinkan took his seat, the courtiers at the scene had to pay respects according to the etiquette, and the banquet officially started after a lot of work.

The banquet on the Shengshou Festival is definitely not just a simple meal. In addition to the performance of the musicians from the Jiaoshifang, there will also be singing and dancing performances on the scene.

At such a critical moment today, no one dared to come out to stab the assassin, and everyone followed the established procedures to toast and bless the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor.

During this process, the father and son of the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor acted so sweetly that they seemed to want to show all the father-son love owed for ten years to the outside world at once.

He personally poured wine for the old man, served food for the Supreme Emperor himself, and persuaded the old man to drink less when the servants toasted...

Zhu Jinghong and the three of them were stunned by that earnest expression of concern and extremely filial behavior.

Half an hour later, perhaps due to drinking too much, the Supreme Emperor Zhu Xinkan lost control of his emotions, and the situation changed accordingly.

I saw the Supreme Emperor supporting Zhu Xianming's shoulders, and in front of the elders who came to toast at the end, he said very movedly: "Fourth...I'm sorry, Father!"

After saying this, Zhu Xin could not help wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes.

The tears are naturally real, but they are not for Zhu Xianming, but for others.

"Father, why are you here!" Zhu Xianming followed up.

Seeing that the situation had changed, the elders kneeling in front of the imperial case were deeply frightened, fearing that they would kill the whole family if they heard something they shouldn't have heard.

And the courtiers and envoys of His Majesty Dan all pricked up their ears, wanting to find out the situation on the imperial steps.

Since I want to act today, I want more people to see it. Zhu Xinkan signaled to stop the dance and music amidst grief.

The most critical moment is approaching now, Zhu Xianming, who appears calm on the surface, is actually full of killing intent in his heart.

If the Supreme Emperor lied to him tonight and wanted to embarrass him in public, he would definitely execute all his old officials.

That's right, even at this point, Zhu Xianming still doesn't trust his own father.

When everyone was terrified and curious, Zhu Xinkan picked up the wine glass, got up from the dragon chair and walked out.

Seeing his father go away, Zhu Xianming immediately followed, and several eunuchs also hurriedly followed.

The old man kneeling in front of the imperial case made way for the two supreme beings to pass through.

Holding the wine glass, Zhu Xinkan stood hunched over Dan Bi, so that all the courtiers below could see him.

Leading Lu Tong Chengying and other confidant eunuchs, Zhu Xianming appeared next to the Supreme Emperor, acting as a boy again to support his father.

"Father, it's very windy here... You'd better go back and take your seat!" Zhu Xianming made a final reminder, the old man had time to stop now.

The more critical the time came, the more Zhu Xianming distrusted his father, and the situation had reached its peak at this moment.

This shows that he also has something to be afraid of, that is, he cannot face the events of the year calmly, because what he did was really dishonest.

"Fourth brother, I have suffered for you all these years... There are some things that father must say today!" Zhu Xinkan's expression became more and more intense.

At this point, even a fool can realize that the situation is wrong, so more people prick up their ears.

"Back then, my imperial conquest was abroad, and my crown prince...my most trusted son actually conspired to usurp the throne..."

Hearing this, everyone present was terrified and almost thought that the Supreme Emperor was crazy.

How many days can such a taboo thing be discussed on this occasion?
After hearing the Taishanghuang's latest words, the most terrified were the old ministers like Jia She, who felt that they had reached the gate of hell.

If he missed the door, his family would be ransacked and his family would be ransacked, just like the fate of Prince Li and his officials back then.

Surprise, fear, and curiosity were mixed at the scene, but the three brothers Zhu Jinghong, who were sitting on the left and right sides of the throne, fell into deep thought at the moment.

Everything today is too abnormal, and the emperor has not interfered at this juncture. If it is not that these two people are crazy, it means that there must be some kind of plan.

"My prince...conspired to usurp the throne!" Zhu Jinghong murmured in a low voice, and immediately discovered the key problem.

This is the first time that the Supreme Emperor himself has admitted that his eldest son Zhu Xiankun is a traitor who usurped the throne.

"No wonder, no wonder..." Zhu Jinghong immediately understood everything.

"Sure enough, the old man has no profit and can't get up early. How can I see him serving so attentively on weekdays!"

When Zhu Jinghong understood, so did Zhu Jingyuan beside him, only the crown prince Zhu Jingyuan almost understood.

"I was unable to win the battle for a long time back then, all because of this rebellious son's secret tricks, instructing his party members to disobey orders and send troops indiscriminately..."

However, the fact is that Prince Jing and Zhu Xianming made great military achievements back then, and he became a pillar of the Ming Dynasty.

So as in previous history, Zhu Xinkan had no choice but to refrigerate Zhu Xianming, and personally drove northward to conquer the rebellious Khanate's alliance.

In the matter of restricting and suppressing Zhu Xianming, Zhu Xinkan and the prince Zhu Xiankun have the same interests, so it is impossible to stumbling him during his personal conquest.

However, a lie told a thousand times is the truth, let alone by the most authoritative person.

"When I was in the midst of a war, the crown prince conspired with his henchmen in Beijing to usurp the throne ahead of time..."

"Fortunately..." At this point, Zhu Xinkan looked at Zhu Xianming beside him.

"I still have a good son. The King Jing... found out that the prince wanted to rebel, so he launched an army with a fearless heart!"

"After a bloody battle, my son will finally kill the rebellious thieves and welcome me back to Beijing!"

Regardless of the truth of what happened back then, with the Taishanghuang's statement today, even if it is false, it will become true.

If there are any more people who gossip behind their backs, it will be morally untenable, and it can be said that it is much ado about nothing.

At this moment, after hearing what his father said, Zhu Xianming was completely relieved.

"Father, what happened back then is over, why bother to mention him...don't get so angry about it!" Zhu Xianming was extremely concerned and comforted his father while supporting him.

Shaking his head, Zhu Xinkan went on to say: "After experiencing this incident, my heart and mind are haggard and my mind is exhausted... I am unable to deal with military and state affairs, so I want to sit in King Jing!"

"Ran Jing Wang Chunxiao, strongly persuaded me to regain my fighting spirit and take on the responsibility of the world!"

"In the end, I forced him to die, so that King Jing was appointed in the face of danger, and accepted the throne of Zen to inherit the throne!"

At this point, the entire process of the Donghuamen Incident has been completely told from the mouth of the Supreme Emperor, which is completely consistent with the official explanation of the current imperial court.

The current emperor was His Royal Highness King Jing who made outstanding military exploits back then, and he was also a hero who brought order to order the country out of chaos.

Holding the wine glass, Zhu Xinkan walked down the steps slowly, and said as he walked: "Over the years, some sinister villains have spread rumors secretly, saying that the emperor is a traitor who killed and forced his father. Emperor, divorce the relationship between father and son in my heavenly family!"

Speaking of this, Zhu Xinkan stopped in his tracks, looked at the emperor with a rather moved face and said: "Back then, because of my own selfishness, my father pushed you to the throne regardless of everything, and you were slandered and slandered repeatedly..."

"Son... Being a father really hurts you!"

Hearing this, Zhu Jinghong almost spit out the wine from his mouth, and secretly sighed whether the two had acted too much.

Among the hundreds of people at the scene, most of them heard what happened back then, and those who experienced the truth and are still alive are after all a minority.

At this moment, hearing the Supreme Emperor's affectionate explanation, most people have gradually changed their views.

Especially the elders from all over the country, relatively speaking, they know less about the affairs of the court, and they believe more in the sanctity of the emperor, so they firmly believe in today's statement.

And through their mouths, today's events will surely spread throughout the country, fundamentally purifying the slander against the emperor.

The holy dynasty ruled the world with filial piety, and the Supreme Emperor and the emperor were so kind and filial, how could they not become models for the world to follow.

When everyone at the scene had different thoughts, Zhu Xinkan turned and looked at the courtier below, his expression became serious: "These actions are extremely vicious. They not only slander the emperor and deceive him, but also intend to conspire to shake the foundation of my Ming rule!"

"However, in my great Ming Dynasty, since the Taizu expelled the Tartars and ruled the world, and then the Shizu Zhongxing restored Shenzhou, the descendants have been handed down for fifteen generations, and the country has lasted for more than 330 years... The world returns to the world!"

Zhu Xinkan is also very proud when talking about the ancestor Zhongxing Guozuo's continuous development.

Since the three dynasties, it was the Han and Song dynasties that had such a state, and the two Song dynasties were naturally looked down upon by people all over the world.

Therefore, in the eyes of the people in the world, the only one who can compete with Da Ming is the great man thousands of years ago.

As for the Li Tang Dynasty, the father was not kind, the son was not filial, the brother was not friendly and the brother was disrespectful, and the country was not long enough.

Even if there is such a prosperous age as Zhenguan Kaiyuan, it will not be able to pull back the reputation, and it can only squeeze into the top three.

I saw Zhu Xinkan's serious expression, and then said: "How can it be that a little bit of a fool, just a few words of nonsense, can destroy the emperor's reputation and mess up our country!"

"Such actions are simply like a gnat shaking a tree, beyond one's own strength!"

After all, Zhu Xinkan had been an emperor, and his speech was full of righteousness and momentum, which was really convincing.

"The Sage King is in power now, and the world is in great order...you are lucky enough to be in a prosperous age, so you should try your best to protect your father, assist the emperor to achieve great achievements, and stop talking about what happened in the past!"

Hearing this, the few ministers who had been greeted by Zhu Xianming in advance got up and walked up the royal road at this moment, and then paid homage: "The teachings of the Supreme Emperor, I will remember them in my heart, and I will do my best to assist Your Majesty in the future, so that I will be able to survive in Ming Dynasty." Become the foundation of all ages!"

The actions of these people were the signal, and everyone at the scene was reminded, so they knelt down to worship and shouted similar slogans.

"Long live Long live Long live……"

"Long live Long live Long live……"

Amidst the ups and downs at the scene, Zhu Xianming was already happy in his heart, but Zhu Xinkan, who was also smiling, apologized to his boss Zhu Xiankun in his heart.
