high official

Chapter 1030
"It will be fine, isn't the chaos in Shandong subsided?" After all, it is the first month, and there are always people who are willing to think about the good: "This year's situation will always be better..."

"Fart!" Liu Yuanwai said disdainfully: "As long as the emperor is here, life will only get worse! Don't forget, the three main halls haven't been rebuilt yet!"

"That's right, it seems that we can only hope for this day when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince takes over." Father Qiu said dejectedly, "You can still wait for that day, but the old man can't wait..."

Everyone sighed for a while, and a man who had been silent at the side suddenly said, "I'm afraid no one will be able to wait!"

"What?" Everyone looked at the man. The people in Beijing were the most well-informed, and they all knew that Zhu Di's illness had become more and more severe over the years, and he definitely wouldn't be able to last for a few years.

"Don't you know yet?" The man said in a deep voice, "The emperor dispatched the crown prince to Nanjing, and he already set off yesterday!"

"Ah?" Everyone was shocked, and said in a twitch: "Is there such a thing?"

"Yes, and sent people from Dongchang to escort Uncle Zhongyong to Beijing, and he will enter Beijing in a few days." The man sighed and said, "Think about it yourself, what's going on?"

"What's the situation?" Everyone stared at the man with wide eyes.

"Kill the loyal ministers, what do you mean by abolishing the crown prince!" The man sighed, "The big guy only had such little hope, and the emperor will kill them all. What else can you expect? Go to sleep..."

"Ah..." All the tea guests at the table were stunned, and the tea guests at the next table also gathered around one after another, and asked the man with worried faces: "What you said is true? The prince has really been assigned? Is Uncle Zhongyong really being escorted back to the capital?"

"Is this still fake?" The man looked at the crowd and said, "You will find out after asking!" He shook his head and said, "This Ming Dynasty, there is no hope..."

"Hey..." All the tea guests looked ugly, as if a catastrophe was imminent, and now they were no longer in the mood to chat about Fengyue, and all worried about this big bad thing!
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is well-known for his benevolence, and the common people suffered in the Yongle Dynasty. The only hope is for him to ascend the throne as soon as possible, so that everyone can live a peaceful life.Therefore, the prince has become a savior in the hearts of the people.And Wang Xian has been loyal to the crown prince all these years, and he has charged forward for the crown prince and sheltered him from the wind and rain, and has become a figure like the patron saint of His Highness the crown prince among the people.

People love the house as much as they like, and they love this legendary figure who became famous and made great contributions. He saved the grandson from the siege of the Mongols by himself in Jiulongkou, Mobei.He also played with the Mongolian leaders, abducted their most beautiful prairie flowers, and brought the legendary experience of returning to the south through the vast Gobi with the Borzigit tribe. It has long been processed into storytelling by folk artists who sing and sing Opera is widely circulated among the people.He and his brothers, also passed on from word to mouth by the common people, have been infinitely exalted and deified, and have become one of the few sustenances in the distressed lives of thousands of ordinary people...

Last year Wang Xian went to Shandong to pacify the chaos, but was framed by treacherous ministers, the whole army was wiped out in Calabash Valley, and his whereabouts were unknown. I don’t know how many people heard the news and wept bitterly. Outside the capital, many places even built ancestral halls for him.When Wang Xian came back from the dead and reappeared in people's sights, he quelled the war in Shandong and recruited the rebellious White Lotus Sect. His glorious image reached an unprecedented height!
The common people are madly obsessed with and adoring Wang Xian, and there is another unexplainable reason. According to folklore, Wang Xian slept with Xu Miaojin, the woman Zhu Di had been obsessed with all his life, and killed the Hanwang father and son who were full of evil. It added a layer of meaning of fighting against the current emperor, which made the common people who dared to be angry with Zhu Di feel very enjoyable!They regarded Wang Xian as the person who helped them vent their anger, applauded Wang Xian as mocking and belittling Zhu Di, and felt very satisfied.

.

Seeing the guests in the teahouse filled with righteous indignation, loudly denouncing the court's injustice to Wang Xian and the emperor's persecution of heroes, the man who spread the news checked out and left as if nothing had happened.

Leaving Chunfeng Tea House, the man walked into another restaurant not far away as soon as he lifted his foot, found a corner to sit down, and began to wait for the opportunity to spread the news.At the same time, there were many people like him who shuttled around the teahouses and restaurants in the capital, trying to spread the same rumors unobtrusively.

In one day, the emperor wanted to kill Wang Xian, and rumors about the abolition of the crown prince spread throughout the streets and alleys of Beijing. People all sighed and shed tears for Wang Xian's tragic fate, as if they were about to be beheaded by the emperor...

Many people bravely ran outside the gate of Xiyuan to avenge Wang Xian, and begged the emperor to let him go!Guarding the Xiyuan gate is Dongchang's fanzi. Ma De, the leader, saw that more and more people gathered outside Xiyuan gate. In order to control the situation, he ordered Dongchang to arrest all the people who came to petition...

Under the high pressure of the East Factory, no one dared to come to petition outside the gate of Xiyuan, so Ma De breathed a sigh of relief.The subordinates at the side asked him: "Do you want to report the recent changes in the capital to the emperor?"

"Let's wait until godfather comes back..." Ma De lowered his voice and said, "Now our East Factory is the only one, and we don't even have a goal to shirk responsibility if something goes wrong. If the emperor is angry, we can't bear it. Walk!"

"Then what if something goes wrong?" the subordinate asked worriedly.

"If there is no trouble, the group of **** dare to get together and yell twice. Do you really think they will die for an irrelevant guy?" Ma De sneered: "As long as we step up the search and arrest, the jumping joy will be killed." Arrest everyone. When that guy is escorted to Beijing, send more soldiers and horses to guard the streets. I guarantee that there will be no problems..."

"You're still very knowledgeable!" Seeing that he had already made up his mind, his subordinates stopped talking and flattered him instead.

"That's..." Ma De smiled complacently.

.

In Xiyuan's dormitory, Zhu Di's illness became more and more serious. These days, Wang Guifei was taking care of the emperor's bed in a state of undressed clothes.Only she can bear the emperor's increasingly bad temper, and she will not be killed by the emperor because of a moment of anger...

Concubine Wang Guifei was reciting Buddhist scriptures softly for Zhu Di. Her voice was soft and pleasant, which had a good soothing effect on Zhu Di.Zhu Di listened to the Buddhist scriptures, except for coughing occasionally, he didn't move for a while.

Until Huang He came in from the outside, breaking the silence of the bedroom.

"Eunuch Huang, is there anything we can't talk about later? The emperor is just about to rest." Wang Guifei was very upset with Huang He, thinking that he blindly flattered him and had too much selfishness, unlike the upright eunuchs Zheng He and Li Yan, Can persuade the emperor's fault.And this Huang He has always followed Zhu Di, and found an alchemist of unknown origin to make alchemy for the emperor in the palace!If this is to be spread, what is the difference between the emperor and those stupid kings who are addicted to alchemy?
Huang He also knew that Wang Guifei didn't want to see him, so he smiled indifferently, took out a sandalwood box the size of a palm, presented it to Zhu Di, and reported as if offering a treasure: "Your Majesty, the first batch of pills It's done."

When Wang Guifei heard it, her face sank, but Zhu Di was obviously interested, coughing twice and struggling to sit up.Wang Guifei could only help the emperor up, put two cushions on his back, and then looked at the emperor and Huang He in silence.

Zhu Di settled down and glanced at the sandalwood box.Huang He hurriedly opened the cover, and saw that inside the box lined with yellow silk, nine pills the size of pigeon eggs and glowing red were neatly arranged.

Zhu Di stretched out his hand tremblingly, and took a pill with great difficulty.It's not that the emperor is so excited, but that he can no longer keep his hands steady.Zhu Di held the elixir in front of his eyes tremblingly and looked at it for a moment, then said slowly: "The appearance is not bad..."

"Your Majesty, I don't know what it is made of, so I can't take it lightly." Wang Guifei couldn't help persuading her from the side.

"Don't worry, ma'am, the little eunuch who tested the medicine has been taking it for two days and is safe and sound. The old slave also tried it himself yesterday," Huang He hurriedly said, "I woke up today, feeling bright and comfortable, as if I was ten years younger Same!" He said with a flattering smile on his face, "Your Majesty can take it with confidence."

"En." Zhu Di felt relieved, looked at the elixir for a while, and then slowly put it into his mouth.Concubine Wang Guifei had no choice but to rush to serve the emperor with a dick.After Zhu Di finished taking the medicine, Huang He covered the wooden box and put it in the cabinet beside the bed.Wang Guifei looked at Zhu Di worriedly, and asked anxiously, "How does your majesty feel?"

"It's warm in my stomach." Zhu Di stroked his abdomen, and frowned slightly, "Is this normal?"

"Normal, normal, the old fairy said, this is the reaction when the medicine dissipates in the body. Based on the experience of the old slave, the emperor will feel the beauty after a few hours." Huang He hurriedly apologized with a smile.

"Hmm." Zhu Di nodded, and then asked in a deep voice, "Where are they?"

"Go back to the emperor, you should be in Cangzhou now." Although Zhu Di didn't mention the specific name, Huang He still knew exactly who the emperor was asking.Busy said softly: "If there are no accidents, we will arrive in the capital in six or seven days."

"Is there any change in Beijing?" Zhu Di asked slowly.

"There is no big movement, but those officials don't understand the prince's going south at this time." Huang He thought for a while, then lowered his head and added in a low voice: "In addition, there are some voices among the people, asking whether the emperor wants to... abolish Li ?”

Huang He wanted to continue, but Zhu Di's face turned purple, and he yelled angrily like he was going to eat someone: "What does the Jinyiwei of Dongchang do? How can they tolerate such rumors?!"

"The emperor is angry!" Huang He didn't know how many benefits he had received from Dongchang, and he would instinctively maintain the power structure controlled by the eunuch, so he quickly covered it up for Dongchang: "It's just some rumors, Dongchang has put it out... ..." He originally planned to talk about Wang Xian, how dare he mention it now?
"Hmph..." Zhu Di calmed down and said, "Tell them, it's better to be in vain than to let go, and absolutely nothing will go wrong, do you understand?"

"The slave understands."
