In this era, the most important place for the common people to get information is the official bulletin board.As soon as the imperial list came out, the common people were in an uproar.

No one expected that Zhu Tianjiang, who had made the most contributions, resigned from his official position on his own initiative, and did not ask for any gold or silver rewards.Apart from a set of mansions, the emperor only rewarded a king whip in the clan's mansion.Of course, although Zhu Tianjiang lost his official position, Emperor Chengwu still made him a third-rank official.

Zhu Daguan's calm and calm generosity immediately became a topic of discussion among the common people after dinner.For a time, everyone inside and outside the capital, including officers and soldiers in the army, praised him.

While Emperor Chengwu rewarded the heroes, he also started to kill.The relatives of the Zhou family and the officials of the direct line were killed and killed, including the six departments and the three courts, which almost made Emperor Chengwu clean up.The news of Zhou Yantian's defeat spread to southern Xinjiang, and Dangyun Kingdom immediately began to withdraw its troops when it saw that the situation was over.

In the imperial palace, the empress dowager Kun's harem has lifted the ban, and the old queen is still the old queen, but her decree is no longer afraid of any majesty.Under the deliberate arrangement of Emperor Chengwu, the civil officials in the capital began to focus on publicizing the achievements of the eldest prince Xuanming.It seems that in the battle under the city that day, the final victory was achieved only by relying on the might of the First Prince.

In the side courtyard of the Guo Mansion, Guo Ying complained dissatisfiedly.She didn't understand how the emperor could do this, it's fine if he didn't award a reward, and he even took all the credit for it.

"My lord, it's obviously our credit, how did you become the First Prince?" Daniel said dissatisfiedly with his mouth curled up.

Zhu Tianjiang looked at the crowd and smiled slightly, "Hehe, what's the matter, the emperor just wants to set me up as an enemy. Only by setting up the eldest prince can he suppress me, a difficult troublemaker. If the emperor does this, In fact, I was afraid."

Guo Ying said a little indignantly, "You have resigned from office, and you don't have military power in your hands, so there is nothing to be afraid of."

Zhu Yi and the others also felt that Zhu Tianjiang's consideration was too naive, since he lost his military power, the emperor was afraid of what he would do.

"You don't understand. If I don't take the initiative to resign this time, Emperor Chengwu will get rid of me sooner or later. Emperor Chengwu is not stupid. He knows that if the Li family wants to stabilize the country, they must control the military power. Therefore, Reluctantly push out the eldest prince, and push him to the position of the commander of the camp in the suburbs of Beijing. Cheng Wuhuang did this to weaken the influence of General Guo and I in the army, and the second reason is to use the eldest prince as the commander. Suppress General Guo and me. Don’t forget that I am a member of the Guo family. General Guo has 10,000+ troops in southern Xinjiang. This time we led tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to relieve the siege of the capital and established an absolute victory in the army. Prestige. Although I no longer have an official position, the people in the northern camp are all built by me, Zhu Tianjiang. Think about it, if I, Zhu Tianjiang, continue to control the military power and correspond with General Guo from the north to the south, which emperor can sleep well Feeling." Zhu Tianxiang analyzed with a sneer.

"My father will not betray, he is loyal to Dafeng Dynasty." Guo Ying pouted and said softly.

"Oh, your father can't, but I didn't say he couldn't. If it wasn't for the fact that my foundation is too shallow now, maybe I will become the emperor myself this time." Zhu Tianjiang said indifferently.

Several people in the hall looked at each other, thinking that our master is really awesome, dare to say anything.

Guo Ying glared at Zhu Tianjiang angrily, "What nonsense, if this gets out, it will be blamed if the head is not beheaded." Guo Ying blamed him for talking nonsense in front of so many people.

"It's okay, these are our own people. They are my brothers. I never hide anything from my brothers." Zhu Tianjiang said and glanced at everyone.

Daniel was so moved that he really wanted to hold Zhu Tianjiang in his arms and kiss him hard.A scholar died for his confidant, and Zhu Tianxiang's simple words made everyone feel very warm.

"My lord, what are we going to do now?" Daniel said excitedly.

"What else can we do? Of course, we need to renovate the mansion that was given to me. We will move there in half a month." Zhu Tianjiang said with a smile.

The mansion that Emperor Chengwu bestowed on Zhu Tianjiang was not small, far exceeding his official status.It was originally Zhou Yantian's uncle's mansion in the capital, which was given to Zhu Tianjiang by Emperor Chengwu.

When she heard that Zhu Tianjiang was going to move out of the Guo residence, Guo Ying's eyes turned red and her heart was filled with disappointment.Zhu Tianjiang gently held Guo Ying's hand, and gave Zhu Yi and the others a wink, which meant to let them all go out.

"Ah~ By the way, I still have to train those personal soldiers~!"

"Oh, I'm going to see the renovation progress of Xinfu~!"

"I~I~go~to the last~thatched cottage."

Zhu Yi, Zhu Er and He Yang quickly found an excuse and left the living room.Only Daniu was still standing there stupidly, not seeing Zhu Tianjiang's intention at all.

"Daniu, are you okay?" Zhu Tianxiang looked at Daniel depressed.

"It's okay, I'm fine at all." Daniel said with his neck straightened.

"Your grandma, if you have nothing to do, lift the stone lock for me. Lift it a thousand times, don't eat if you can't finish it." Zhu Tianxiang kicked and pushed Daniel out.

Zhu Tianxiang looked at the foolish Daniel outside the door depressedly, then turned to Guo Ying with a wry smile and said, "This guy has a real heart, and his biggest advantage is that he is not sensible."

Guo Ying covered her mouth and smiled, she stood there blushing and didn't speak.Daniu stood outside the door in a daze, looking at that posture and wanted to come in to make a theory, but was dragged out of the side courtyard by He Yang.

Zhu Tianxiang closed the door, walked over and hugged Guo Ying gently, "Girl, when the new mansion is settled, I'll come to you to propose marriage. Then you will be the housekeeper of our mansion."

"Fuck you, who is the housekeeper? From heaven, will you really be right with the emperor in the future?" Guo Ying raised her head and asked softly.

"It's not right, I just don't want others to bully us. If we want to live well, we must at least have the strength to protect ourselves. If the emperor is unhappy one day, we'll just leave." Zhu Tianjiang said, Hands began to be dishonest.

"Don't make trouble, what should I do when grandma comes?" Guo Ying said, her heart fluttered, and she leaned softly in Zhu Tianjiang's arms.

"I've already resigned to serve the people, please comfort me. Yingzi, how about our bridal chamber now~!"

"Ah~ no~!" Guo Ying struggled for a while.

In the living room, two people kissed each other. Fortunately, Guo Ying rationally maintained the last line of defense.Guo Ying is not a weak Yugege, Zhu Tianjiang really has nothing to do with her, he can't be strong.

Half a month later, Zhu Tianxiang moved into his new home.The courtyard has undergone simple renovations, and the plaque at the door has also been replaced with the word "Zhu Fu" in red.

Regardless of the fact that Zhu Tianjiang has lost his official position, civil and military officials still sent congratulatory gifts.The fourth prince Xuanzhu and Yugege have already returned to Beijing, this pair of 'golden branches and jade leaves' has no status in the eyes of Zhu Daguan.Guo Ying and Yugege acted like housekeepers, helping to pack the gifts in the inner courtyard.The fourth prince was even worse, he almost became the butler of Zhu's mansion, he was sweating from busy inside and out.

In the hall, Mrs. Jing Wang, Mrs. Guo sat at the head, and Li Hong and others sat beside her.But Zhu Tianjiang was standing at the entrance of the hall, with the king whip in his hand, he tapped this and poked that from time to time to order his servants.

Today Zhu Tianxiang was happy to move house, Prince Jing and several military attachés came to congratulate him in person.Seeing that Zhu Tianjiang didn't care about beating the king's whip so much, King Jing felt distressed.

"Old madam, I think Tianxiang is on good terms with girl Ying, why don't you find a chance to talk to Tianxin and settle the matter." Prince Jing looked at Mrs. Guo and said with a smile.

The old lady has long been aware of the matter between Guo Ying and Zhu Tianjiang, but according to the rules, Zhu Tianxiang must first ask a matchmaker.In the past, Zhu Tianxiang lived in the Guo Mansion without any status, but now that he has an independent mansion, he can arrange this matter.

"Prince Jing, this child from Tianxiang is an orphan. I am very impressed by how he can have such a state of mind after making such a great contribution. Now that southern Xinjiang has just stabilized, I will urge him after Tianxin returns to Beijing in a few days." Regarding Zhu Tian The old lady is still very satisfied with her performance during this period of time.

Zhu Tianjiang held a large banquet in the courtyard, and all the maids and servants in the house served on the table, regardless of their status.Prince Jing and other officials and Mrs. Guo were arranged in the center of the hall.Regardless of the fact that many civil and military officials sent congratulatory gifts, not many were present in person.

King Jing and the others saw it, and thought that this kid is really strange, and he is so kind to the servants in the mansion, he has no pretensions of his master at all.

Senior official Zhu personally toasted all the officials, and even flattered Prince Jing a few times, King Jing couldn't close his mouth.He didn't know that he had already suffered a big loss, and even his daughter got involved.

A few people were talking when they saw a doorman walk in.

"My lord, Third Prince Xuan Le, come to congratulate me."

Upon hearing this, Prince Jing, Li Hong and others put down their wine glasses one after another.Don't take it as Emperor Wu vigorously promoting the eldest prince Xuanming, but in the hearts of discerning people, they are very impressed with the third prince.That day the third prince beat the drums at the city gate to inspire the soldiers in the city, everyone saw that performance and kept it in their hearts.

Zhu Tianjiang stood up and went to the entrance of the hall. The third prince walked into the courtyard dressed in elegant clothes.Seeing the servants and guards in the courtyard sitting at the table, the third prince couldn't help admiring Zhu Tianjiang for his ability to buy people's hearts.

"Brother Tianxiang, congratulations on the housewarming. Xuan Le just expressed his heart, but it is not respectful. Because the seventh princess is inconvenient to go out of the palace, I also asked me to convey her blessings." After the third prince finished speaking, a row of people behind him stood in the corridor with gifts.

"Third Prince, it's a shame to come here for a glass of water and wine. Why are you being so polite? Later, send my greetings to the Seventh Princess and thank her for her congratulatory gift. Please come in quickly and have a good drink later." Zhu Tianjiang pulled Holding the hand of the third prince, he walked into the hall.

The third prince saw that Prince Jing and several ministers of the Ministry of War were there, so he went forward to salute the old lady and Prince Jing first, and then saluted all the ministers.

The fourth prince also stood up, "Third brother, thank you for coming to join us, please take a seat." The fourth prince acted as if he had arrived at his mansion.

"Xuanzhu, regardless of our royal status, brother Tianxiang is our classmate, you didn't say anything about such a big housewarming this morning, it's a bit out of the ordinary." Xuan Le said, looking towards Zhu Tianxiang, "Brother Tianxiang, since I have a mansion, I will come to ask more questions in the future. Don't be annoyed by that time."

Zhu Tianjiang chuckled, "Third Prince, my door is open, and all the visitors come. Of course, if you eat three meals a day at my place, you have to pay for the meal."

The three of them talked and laughed and sat down. King Jing, Li Hong and the others saw it, and knew in their hearts that the third prince was trying to win over Zhu Tianjiang.However, Zhu Tianjiang has already chosen the fourth prince, as for whether he can support him, Xuanji is a bit complicated here.

Judging from the performance of these princes some time ago, everyone is still very satisfied with the performance of the third prince.As for the fourth prince Xuanzhu, although he may have done the most credit, everyone knows that Zhu Tianxiang gave it to him.

In the imperial city, in Kun's harem, the face of the old lady revealed a kind of grief and indignation.Since the defeat of the Zhou family's army, the old queen Fangfo has aged a lot.Emperor Cheng Wu quickly chopped off the mess, and all the relatives of the Zhou family were beheaded.You are the empress dowager, but she can't even keep her own people. The heart of the old empress is already broken.

"Old master, you have to think about it. If you keep the green hills, you won't have to worry about no firewood. Uncle Guo has secretly entered the Tianqing Kingdom. I believe he will call back soon." The old eunuch Hong Shan comforted and persuaded.

"Hong Shan, what else was said in Uncle Guo's secret letter?"

"Back to old master, Uncle Guo has persuaded the four great Khans of Tianqing Kingdom to lend him one hundred thousand tiger and wolf soldiers to make a comeback. In addition, Uncle Guo has ordered the people hiding in the capital to pay close attention to a few people Among these people, Uncle Guo pays the most attention to that Zhu Tianjiang."

"Zhu Tianjiang?" As soon as the name was mentioned, the old queen's eyes showed a murderous look.

"My Zhou family has hundreds of mouths, all thanks to him. Even if I die, I can't let him live."

"Old master, this slave has already started secret arrangements. After the limelight is over, I will secretly protect you and leave the palace secretly. At that time, the old master will meet with the uncle of the country, and all people in this world will respond to your order. As for Zhu Tianxiang, the old master will Don't worry, the servant will definitely clean him up." Hong Shan said with his eyes narrowed.

"No! I'm not going anywhere. I'm tired of these killings. It doesn't matter whether the world belongs to the Li family or the Zhou family. I'm just sorry for the dead souls of the Zhou family. Hong Shan, you have been with me for many years. Lin Feng, Zhu Tianjiang's master, you should know how powerful he is. If facing Lin Feng's protection, how sure are you of killing Zhu Tianjiang?"

Hong Shan paused slightly, "Old master, if one-on-one, the servant is no match for Lin Feng."

The old lady frowned, "Compared with assassinating Chengwu, which one is more sure?"

"Of course it's Zhu Tianjiang."

The old lady was taken aback, "Why, could it be that Wei Zhan is more terrifying than Lin Feng?"

Hong Shan shook his head slightly, "No, Wei Zhan can at most draw with the old slave. But the Emperor has the Twelve Qinglong Guards by his side. If they join forces, the slave won't be able to take over. As for Zhu Tianjiang, Lin Feng can't possibly guard him all the time. Without Lin Feng, Zhu Tianjiang would definitely die."

The old lady nodded, "Hmph! Occupy my Zhou family's mansion and hold a big banquet, then go and accompany my Zhou family's wronged soul."

Hong Shan glanced at the old lady, then nodded silently, "The servant leads the order." After speaking, Hong Shan retreated slowly.

As soon as the sun set in the evening, the gates of the imperial city were closed tightly, and it was forbidden to go out and enter.Following the palm of the palace lantern, a thin figure jumped out of the palace wall.Hong Shan looked around and quickly dodged into the distance.

In a small alley in the capital, the old eunuch Hong Shan walked into a medical clinic with his head bowed.Seeing Hong Shan, the doctor who was attending the clinic led him into the back hall without saying a word.

As soon as the third watch was over, several black figures walked out from the back door and quietly disappeared into the night.Their target is not Zhu Tianjiang, but Guo Ying in the Guo Mansion.
