Chapter 180 Beat the dog in the water?
After all, Zhu Zhanhe did not stay in the former Han Dynasty Palace. Instead, according to the rules, he stayed in the Zongren Palace where the vassal king should stay when he came to Beijing.
Qianqing Palace.
Zhu Di was sitting on a chair with his eyes closed and his face expressionless, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.
"Forget it..." Zhu Di sighed softly after a long time.
"Send this to the prince."
"Yes……"
……
Zongren Mansion.
Zhu Zhanhe is still very accustomed to Yingtian's climate. After all, he has lived here for ten years. After all, it can be regarded as his hometown in this life.
It has only been a few years, so there is nothing that I am not used to. If I insist on saying that I am not used to it, it can only be said that people have become a little unaccustomed to it.
"His Royal Highness, you are so elegant."
Zhu Zhanhe was sitting on the second floor drinking tea when he suddenly heard a teasing voice.
Looking back, Zhu Zhanhe laughed.
"This is the Gancang cooked Pu'er I brought from Yunnan. It's a good thing. Are you sure you don't want to come and try it, Mr. Xia?"
It's a bit funny to say, but also a bit sad.
After a prince of the Han Dynasty entered the capital, the first person who came to see him every time was Xia Yuanji.
"Forget it then." Xia Yuanji leaned against the door frame of the courtyard with a smile on his face.
"Wei Zhe, I'm used to being poor. I'm afraid I can't bear such good things. If my mouth is tricked, I'm afraid I will have to trouble Your Highness several times in the future."
"That's it, I'm afraid I'll be criticized."
Zhu Zhanhe smiled, put down his teacup and stood up: "What's the story? When has this prince ever been afraid of such a thing?"
Xia Yuanji stood up straight and watched Zhu Zhanhe go downstairs.
"Yes, of course I'm not afraid of the famous Prince of Han, but if I can't stand him, I'm afraid he'll be scared to death."
"What?" Zhu Zhanhe went downstairs and stood in front of Xia Yuanji.
"The dignified Minister of Household Affairs, the God of Wealth of the Ming Dynasty, is Xia Shangshu still afraid of these?"
"Afraid! Of course I'm afraid!" Xia Yuanji's tone was very determined, but it was more of a joke.
"Who in the world doesn't know that I, Xia Yuanji, am the God of Wealth of the Ming Dynasty? It's true, but His Highness, the Crown Prince, is the God of Wealth of me, Xia Yuanji!"
"If it weren't for you, Your Highness, I'm afraid all the beams in the Household Department would have to be torn down and sold."
"Well, I haven't seen you in almost a year. You are good at talking, but what I don't know is whether your ability to manage money and food is so neat?"
"That's natural!" Xia Yuanji smiled and stepped away.
On Chang'an Street.
Zhu Zhanhe did not bring any guards, only Zhu Ling and Zhu Ping hung far behind.
A prince of the Han Dynasty and a minister of household affairs of the Ming Dynasty, the two of them were strolling on the street, attracting the attention of the people around them.
"This Yingtian has changed a lot..."
While walking on Chang'an Street, Zhu Zhanhe suddenly sighed for no reason.
"I remember last time, I was riding a horse and walking on this street with the gold and silver seized from Japan. It was obvious that the expressions of the people were different from now."
"The people at that time were more or less hesitant. When they saw me, they were either happy or relieved."
"Seeing them again after a year, maybe they are not the same people I saw last year, but I can clearly see the confidence on their faces."
"Your Highness, didn't you bring this to them?" Xia Yuanji clasped his hands behind his back and smiled when he mentioned the money.
"Although His Royal Highness the Crown Prince won successive battles against Japan last year, the haze of Oara's border crossing and the unsuccessful return of His Royal Highness King Zhao still lingered over the common people, making them breathless."
"At that time, although Your Highness you took away all the soldiers from Yunnan, the people usually thought very little and very simply. They only knew that if you did not come back, the people who would be most harmed would be the Ming Dynasty when it went to deal with the grasslands. them."
"It's different now. Your Royal Highness, you have returned, and you have returned with the great victory of destroying the capital of the Japanese King, Ping'an Jing. The people have confidence in their hearts."
"They may not understand internal affairs, or they may not understand war, but they know that as long as you come back, those people on the grassland are just clowns and vulnerable."
"Your arrival will not only quell the riots in the grassland for the common people, but maybe it will also add another Jingguan to the grassland."
Zhu Zhanhe shook his head and laughed when he heard this.
It seems that his name as the God of Killing is really deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
"When did Xia Shangshu learn to tease people?" Zhu Zhanhe stopped in front of a small stall and picked up a small bag of fried beans.
"Old man, how did you sell this?"
"No money..." The old man smiled brightly, and the wrinkles on his face gathered into a chrysanthemum.
"His Royal Highness likes to eat. It's a blessing for me. It doesn't cost any money."
"You see, this is not what I said." Xia Yuanji followed up with a smile, took out two pennies from his sleeve pocket, and put it into the old man's hand.
"Old man, I can understand your love and respect for His Highness, but if you don't accept His Highness's money, you will be embarrassing His Highness."
"And, after this, I'm afraid someone will use this to say something bad about His Royal Highness."
"Who dares!" Neither Zhu Zhanhe nor Xia Yuanji expected that the originally kind-hearted old man suddenly raised his eyebrows in anger, with a rather desperate attitude.
"Whoever dares to say something bad about His Royal Highness, then the little old man will... just... crash on the door of his house and die!"
……
Zhu Zhanhe and Xia Yuanji looked at each other in dismay, and then laughed out loud in unison.
"Old man, I accept your wishes. As for the collision... let's forget about it." Zhu Zhanhe couldn't laugh or cry, and after saying that, he pulled Xia Yuanji away.
People's gratitude is often simple and plain, usually they give you whatever they have.
"I feel like I've led the people of the Ming Dynasty astray." After escaping from the small stall, Zhu Zhanhe said to Xia Yuanji with a smile.
"Look, what is this? Opening your mouth is just to hit someone to death in front of their door?"
"This...maybe not necessarily a bad thing..." Xia Yuanji's eyes narrowed and he stopped.
"Huh?" Zhu Zhanhe threw a fried bean into his mouth, and looked back at Xia Yuanji who had stopped in a strange way.
Xia Yuanji looked straight ahead. Zhu Zhanhe followed his gaze and was stunned for a moment.
Minister of the Ministry of War, Jin Zhong.
"Jin Zhong, pay homage to His Royal Highness."
"Shang Shu Jin, please get up." Zhu Zhanhe was a little confused, but he still bent down and helped Jin Zhong up.
"His Royal Highness." Jin Zhong stood up following Zhu Zhanhe's strength, but he bent down and took out something from his sleeve pocket.
"Jin Zhong, on His Majesty's order, gives this item to His Highness."
……
Jinyiwei, Beizhen Fusi.
Zhu Zhanhe never thought that one day he would be able to come here again.
"Ji Gang has met His Royal Highness."
At the gate of Fusi in Beizhen, Ji Gang had obviously received the old man's order and was waiting at the gate early.
"Commander Ji, please." Zhu Zhanhe handed the token in his hand to Ji Gang.
"Your Highness, what are you talking about? Please." Ji Gang didn't dare to put on airs with Zhu Zhanhe now, and even spoke cautiously.
Prison has never been a good place, which can be seen from his reputation in the public.
However, Zhu Zhanhe, Xia Yuanji and Jin Zhong walked in this dark and damp prison, but they looked like nothing.
Soon, Ji Gang brought Zhu Zhanhe to a cell, knocked on the wooden fence of the cell with his scabbard, then turned around and bowed to Zhu Zhanhe, and slowly exited Zhu Zhanhe's sight.
"I haven't seen him for a year. Zhan He never expected that the high-spirited and high-spirited bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion would end up like this. It's really disappointing."
Looking at the human figure slowly emerging from the dark corner of the cell, Zhu Zhanhe's words were not sarcastic, but really made him feel sad.
Think about it, Huang Huai was a Jinshi in the 30th year of Hongwu, and was awarded the title of Zhongshu Sheren that year. After the old man ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, Huang Huai was the first batch of Wenyuan Pavilion members.
A veteran of the Yongle Dynasty, the Yongle Dynasty has not yet passed, it can even be said to be at its peak, but Huang Huai, a veteran, has been sentenced to prison.
How can it not be embarrassing?
"Why, did His Royal Highness come here specifically to mock me?" Huang Huai slowly walked out of the dark corner and looked at Zhu Zhanhe with disdain.
"Then you're thinking too much." Zhu Zhanhe shook his head and laughed. He didn't expect Huang Huai to have so many thoughts.
"I don't have the habit of beating up drowned dogs. You may not believe it. If the emperor hadn't asked Jin Shangshu to hand over the token of Beizhen Fusi to me, I would never have thought of coming."
"In my opinion, beating up a drowned dog is a very shameful thing, and you don't deserve it."
Huang Huai's eyes froze for a moment. Although it was only for a moment, Zhu Zhanhe still caught it very keenly.
He knew why Huang Huai was in a daze, and he also knew why the old man asked him to come over.
"Heaven doesn't come true..." Huang Huai obviously had a lot to say, but when the words came to his lips, he could only condense them into this sentence.
Some words are useless if you say them; some words cannot even be said.
"Heaven doesn't fulfill people's wishes? That's just your idea." Zhu Zhanhe smiled slightly and leaned on the cell railing, with his back to Huang Huai.
"Today, I just didn't fulfill the wishes of those of you who are fighting each other, but the wishes of most people in the world were fulfilled."
"Huh!" Huang Huai snorted coldly and turned his head disdainfully.
"With people like you around, Ming Dynasty's prestige will be ruined by you sooner or later! On that day, Your Majesty will know what kind of scourge you are!"
"Are you...really doing it for the Ming Dynasty?" Zhu Zhanhe sneered after hearing this.
Although no one may believe it, he really never thought of ridiculing Huang Huai like this. After all, Huang Huai had made meritorious deeds before.
Although he disliked Huang Huai very much, Zhu Zhanhe admitted that the stability of Yongle Dynasty was due to Huang Huai's contribution.
but now……
"You are not afraid of being laughed at when you say this. To be honest, I didn't think much about making things difficult for you. After all, you are considered a hero. But I didn't expect that the former Huanghuai University Scholar has become like this."
With that said, Zhu Zhanhe turned around and looked straight at Huang Huai's back.
"You keep saying it's for the people of the world and the Zhu family, but in reality? Don't you know what you're doing for?"
"Huang Huai, do you know? If grandpa hadn't shown mercy, you would have died long ago."
"You are from Zhejiang. Don't you know what happened in Zhejiang after the Ming Dynasty banned the sea?"
"When you were cleaning up the Southeast Maritime Traders, although you acted very quickly and cleared all the relationships that should be cleared, do you really feel that you have deceived everyone?"
"What does Jin Yiwei do? Do you think he is a vegetarian?"
"Also, why did grandpa send you to prison this time because you just agreed with Chen E's impeachment of me? Do you think it was just because of this?"
Now Zhu Zhanhe, without leaving any emotion behind his words, directly tore off the last layer of Huang Huai's fig leaf, his tone full of ridicule.
"Why, do you think it's incredible? It was obviously done perfectly, but why was it still discovered?"
Zhu Zhanhe held on to the bars of the cell and did not stop laughing at Huang Huai.
"Why, do you think that the high-yielding grains of my line, the King of Han, will endanger the stability of the Ming Dynasty and my uncle's position as crown prince?"
"I'm embarrassed to expose you. Are you really trying to persuade Chen E to impeach me for the sake of Ming Dynasty and the crown prince?"
"Isn't it because of the grain that you obtained through all kinds of unscrupulous methods through your liaison with Zhejiang maritime merchants, in violation of the Ming Dynasty's ancestral precepts? Isn't it because you forced local officials in Zhejiang to deduct the portion of salt and salt from taxes? Food rations?”
"Also, last year you petitioned the emperor, saying that due to natural disasters, the food harvest in the coastal areas was poor, but the sun-salted salt industry was not affected, and even exceeded the imperial court's expected share of 360 eight dan. Please allow the people in the coastal areas to use the excess. This part of the salt is tax deductible."
"But, have you forgotten that I am conquering Japan? I am not blind!"
"Last year, people along the coast paid for grain and salt, but the grain was not credited to the Ministry of Household Affairs!"
Huang Huai froze on the spot without moving. No one knew what he was thinking.
But the anger on Xia Yuanji's face could no longer be restrained.
"Huang Huai, Huang Huai." Zhu Zhanhe knocked on the wooden fence of the cell with a smile on his face, his smile full of ridicule, as if he was testing whether the cell was strong.
"You are a scholar and became an official in Hongwu 30 years ago. I wonder if you still remember Mr. Zhang Zai's 'Four Sentences on the Horizontal Canal'?"
"Set up your mind for the heaven and the earth, set up your life for the people, set up a legacy for the sages of the past, and create peace for all generations."
"What did you accomplish?"
As he spoke, Zhu Zhanhe smiled and shook the big chain on the cell door.
"Seriously, Huang Huai, you are in this prison now. If you were not in this prison, I would definitely take you to Taizhou Mansion."
"The matter of your impeachment of me has now spread, at least around Yingtian."
"When the time comes, take a look and see what those people will do to you?"
"Eating its flesh and drinking its blood feel light to me."
"Be lucky, lucky that grandpa has saved you some face, otherwise..."
Zhu Zhanhe turned around and returned the way he came without looking back, leaving behind a sentence that echoed in the dark prison.
"I will definitely skin you and make you into a grass!"
There are always people who think that if the Japanese kingdom is gone, this book will be of little value. Are you really sure?
