My Brother-in-law is the Prince

  Chapter 258 Canonization

   Zheng Ci is timid.

  As soon as he heard that the thing was poisonous, he almost fainted.

  Because... At the beginning, I saw that Ye Mingzhu with my own eyes.

   As for that thing, Zheng Ci has never forgotten it until now, and he has been admiring in his heart that there is such a treasure in the world.

  How could he have imagined that Zhang Anshi, a heartless thing, was actually used to harm others.

   It's no wonder that he has always felt tired and weak these days.

  At first, Zheng Ci thought it was just an accidental cold.

  However... In fact, whether it was the influence of Ye Mingzhu or not, he couldn't tell.

  But to Zheng Ci, it doesn't matter, because...he wants to live.

   Don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just in case!

  The old man still wants to die!

  Perhaps because of hearing the bad news, now Zheng Ci, with straight eyes and extremely pale face, looks like a living dead.

   Everyone looked at him, and suddenly realized that this Zheng Butang, for some reason, seemed to have aged ten years suddenly.

  The censor, Chen Jia, was speechless for a while, so he could only frown and look at Zheng Ci speechlessly.

   Zhang Anshi listened to it, but only felt that Zheng Ci was most likely due to psychological effects.

So, he comforted him and said, "Duke Zheng, don't be afraid. The beads won't harm you. Haven't you noticed that the beads are packed in a box? This box is specially made to prevent The poison of the bead was exposed, Zheng Gong, don't panic..."

  After hearing this, Zheng Ci wailed, "But...but... that box, old man... old man opened it..."

  As he said this, his face was ashen. Now it's all right, if you die, you won't be able to find someone who has taken advantage of you.

  Zhang Anshi immediately said: "What, you actually opened the box? Hey... It's none of my business. I made someone seal the box on purpose. You did it yourself."

   Zheng Ci looked desperate, but he looked at Zhang Anshi firmly and said, "I don't know if there is a way to detoxify Marquis Annan? Old man... old man..."

  Zhang Anshi shattered his hope directly, saying: "There is no cure for this poison."

  As soon as these words came out, Zheng Ci's eyes began to roll up continuously, showing signs of fainting at any time.

  Zhang Anshi felt that he was soft-hearted after all, so he kindly comforted him and said: "But if you only touch it occasionally, the toxicity is not deep, at most it will only have some impact on your health, don't worry, you won't die."

   After saying these words, Zheng Ci felt a little relieved, and his face began to turn slightly rosy.

But Zhang Anshi seemed to be afraid of being blackmailed by Zheng Ci, and immediately began to make a disclaimer: "But then again, if there is anything good or bad about you, Mr. Zheng, it must be because Mr. Zheng is not in good health, and you can't blame me. "

   These words pushed Zheng Ci into the abyss again.

  Because he couldn't predict which sentence Zhang Anshi said was true and which sentence was an excuse.

Although Zheng Ci is timid, he is also a smart person, and he is even a master of Tai Chi. Because of this, in his ears, Zhang Anshi's words seem to say, in fact, this bead is poisonous, and you may not live long. But in order to evade, Zhang Anshi bit him to death and said that it was absolutely not poisonous, and if there was anything good or bad, it was your business, and it had nothing to do with him, Zhang Anshi.

  Zheng Ci: "..."

  This Zheng Ci has always cherished his life. Hearing this, how can he care about other things? Roared angrily: "Zhang Anshi, you killed me..."

   After finishing speaking, show your teeth and claws.

   Fortunately, when everyone was speechless, they still reacted.

  Everyone's temperament is always compromised. Bickering in court may be enjoyable for everyone, but if someone suddenly wants to violently hurt others, it will not work.

  So the ministers who were not far from Zheng Ci stopped Zheng Ci one after another, and said: "Duke Zheng, Gong Zheng, pay attention to your appearance, hasn't this been poisoned to death?"

"Yeah, yeah, what's there to worry about? This matter... I think everyone is wrong. I blame An Nanhou for not making it clear, but I also blame Mr. Zheng... for insisting on opening the box privately. I think everyone is wrong." Wrong means everyone is right, forget it, forget it.”

  Zheng Ci only felt a little dizzy, he seemed to feel that his body was dirty, and there seemed to be some toxins surging in his body.

  So after the excitement, I felt my head was heavy, as if I was really poisoned, so I made a sound of "Ouch, Ouch...".

  The whole person seemed to be sluggish in an instant, his body began to tremble, and his legs trembled as if they could no longer bear his body.

  When everyone saw him like this, they thought the poison was really powerful.

  But Zhang Anshi yelled: "I think Zheng Gong is sick, he needs to be disemboweled, so he must be rescued quickly."

  As soon as this remark came out, Zheng Ci shook his head suddenly, as if he had just woken up from a dream, and suddenly he became more energetic. He pushed aside the people around him who wanted to help him, and stood still obediently, without saying a word.

Zhang Anshi smiled, but immediately looked at Chen Jia, and said with a smile: "Chen Yushi said that I cheated... this... right and wrong, I have my own point of view. I, Zhang Anshi, have been wronged for nothing. This matter... always There must be a saying. Otherwise, I will make another bead and let Mr. Chen come and try it out. Let Mr. Chen wear this bead on his body for a month. If Mr. Chen is still free from disasters and illnesses, then I will be counted as the funeral of Zhang An. As good as God, how about pretending to be meritorious?"

  Chen Jia's complexion was blue and white, seeing Zheng Ci like this, how dare he talk too much? Trying hard to hold back his anger, he immediately said: "If it's not a pretense, it's not a pretense, why is Marquis An Nan so fussy?"

  After experiencing a farce, the monarchs and ministers finally calmed down.

   Soon, they realized that this time, they really solved a huge problem.

  The Tatar army fell apart in an instant, relying on only one bead?

  Such an incredible thing actually happened.

  This An Shi is really...

  No matter what the ministers are thinking, but Zhu Di is in a great mood at this time, and he said happily: "There are countless living people, countless living people... Damn, this Tatar Khan's wolfish ambition still has today, it is really a celebration of the whole world."

  Paused, Zhu Di glanced at the ministers very seriously, and then said: "Everyone, please tell me, let's talk."

Yang Rong stood up first, and said pleasantly: "Your Majesty, the losses avoided this time are really not small. The soldiers and civilians in Guangning survived, and countless people in Liaodong survived. Not only that, but the most important thing this time is Wu. Liangha colluded with the Tatar tribe. Now that Guilichi is dead, this so-called collusion will fall apart again, which will be of great benefit to Ming Dynasty."

   Jin Zhong also heaved a long sigh of relief.

  He originally prevented the emperor from personally conscripting this year and delayed the time, but he actually felt a little guilty in his heart.

   This is tantamount to sacrificing some soldiers and civilians in border towns this year, in exchange for Ming to attack the Tatars more effectively next year.

  Now this problem is solved easily.

"Your Majesty, the so-called strategy of attacking the army is the second to attack the enemy, and the second is to attack the city. The method of attacking the city is a last resort. What the Marquis of Annan did this time is really beneficial to the common people and the country. I believe that when In terms of military exploits. All personnel involved in this matter should count their merits and reward them."

  Zhu Di nodded again and again, looked at Zhang Anshi cheerfully and said, "Zhang Qing, who is involved?"

  Zhang Anshi thought for a while and said: "In addition to the minister, there are many people from Neiqianhusuo who are in charge of inquiring, and some people are sent as envoys with Wang Langzhong. Not only that, there are also some death row prisoners... to make this poison."

  Zhu Di said directly: "The last memorial is here."

  After that, Zhu Di didn't go further into this topic.

   To be honest, in his opinion, poisoning is not good after all. Although the effect is very strong and the results are fruitful, it is not suitable to shout about it everywhere.

   Therefore, although Zhu Di was overjoyed in his heart, he still tried his best to suppress the joy in his heart.

  Zhu Di restrained his smile a little, and then said: "Please leave, Zhu Qing, Zhang Qing will stay and talk."

  Leaving Zhang Anshi alone, he obviously wanted to ask for details in private.

  When Zhang Anshi and other officials left, he naturally patiently told Zhu Di all this.

  The so-called night pearl is actually made of natural uranium ore. This thing...in fact, there are many distributions. Although it is rare, it is easy for Zhang Anshi to obtain it.

   But pure uranium mines do not actually have strong radiation. After all, the half-life of uranium mines is too long. The real danger of uranium mines is actually the radon that has accumulated over the years around the uranium mines!

This thing has a short half-life and is very dangerous, but if the radon-containing material near the uranium mine is stored immediately, and then quickly made into a glass-like object, and then sealed in a lead box, it only takes a few days for the lead box to be opened. With time, a large amount of radioactive substances can be released.

  This is also the reason why Zhang Anshi wants to use death row prisoners.

  As for Zheng Ci, he was actually unlucky, because... Although Zheng Ci may have only opened it and looked at it for a while, the harm he suffered was not small.

   Of course... none of this will kill you.

   Only people like Guilichi and the others are really put in a big tent for several days, and these few days are enough to seriously endanger their bodies.

  You know, this is... the amount of radiation produced by a uranium mine lying deep underground for hundreds of millions of years.

  Although...during the process of production and transportation, the radiation has dissipated a lot, but it is enough for Guilichi and others...to suffer huge damage to their bodies in just a few days of contact.

   It's just that this thing...is still not fatal.

  It just makes people lose their hair and the body starts to get more and more tired.

  If you take a good rest, you can live another ten years without any problem.

  Gui Lichi was in the critical period of conquering Liaodong. He worked **** the pommel horse every day. As a Tatar sweat, he had to win over various tribes and drink with people at night.

  Among so many new words, Zhu Di half understood them.

   Zhang Qing’s family was right, this thing... I really don’t understand it after I’ve said it.

  Since you don’t understand, don’t listen.

Then, Zhu Di smiled and said: "I knew you had a lot of tricks. In this way, in the coming year, sweeping the desert and completely cleaning up the disintegrated Tatar tribe will be enough to bring peace to Daming for a hundred years. Very good." !"

  Zhang Anshidao: "Your Majesty, this kind of practice is ultimately harmful to the peace of heaven. After all, poisoning is a means of stealing chickens and dogs. I feel very disturbed when I use this poisonous plan."

  Zhu Di nodded and said: "Yes, it is really difficult for you. Who would like to do such a careless thing? You have worked hard, and I will reward you when the time comes."

Zhang Anshi felt that his conscience had been comforted a little, and he said, "But then again, if you don't make this bad move, many people in Liaodong and Border Town will die under this butcher's knife. It's like a river, it's a horrible situation. Seeing them saved today, I feel a little more at ease."

Zhu Di said: "Da Ming and the Tatars are feuds for generations. The so-called enmity of ten generations can still be avenged! This ghost is so powerful and ambitious, no matter how he is killed, it is not too much. Only in this way can thousands of people be saved. , You are right to think so! It’s just that… in the future, it’s not an example. As you said, poisoning is after all a means of thieves and robbers. If it didn’t happen suddenly, I would rather raise troops and sweep the desert with dignity.”

  Zhang Anshi nodded, in fact, he also agreed with Zhu Di.

  Although the cost of raising an army is high, and there may be a lot of losses, but to a certain extent, if you defeat your opponent in an upright manner, the opponent will fear you and surrender willingly.

  If the Tatar was attacked just because of this, but the opponent still refused to accept it after all, it is still necessary to use military means to attack.

   At this moment, Zhu Di suddenly remembered something, and suddenly said: "Yes, there is one more thing..."

He paused, picked up a memorial, and said: "Zheng He has a memorial sent overseas, saying that they sent a fleet to explore south, and found an island in the southeast of Java. The island is located in a remote place, and it seems to be quite large in size, sparsely populated, and most of the land is barren. However, there are many strange things on this island! One of them looks like a mouse, but it is half the height of a human. On the stomach, there is a bag, and this Zheng He has also learned badly, and he used this thing to repay auspiciousness."

  Zhang Anshi was taken aback, but couldn't help laughing.

  That place...Zhang Anshi knows it.

  But he pretended to be surprised and said: "Really, this is really rare, Your Majesty... I am ignorant, but I really want to see what this mouse with a bag looks like."

  Zhu Di smiled and said: "When they are sent back to the capital, I will call you to come and see. By the way, I have to call Zhu Zhanji, this kid, I have to give him a long-term experience."

When Zhu Di talked about Zhu Zhanji, the murderous spirit he showed when discussing the Tatars just disappeared without a trace at this moment, and he still blamed him: "I am very busy these days. , I don’t know how he is doing recently, does he miss me?”

  Zhang Anshidao: "I often talk about His Majesty, saying that only his grandfather in the world treats him best."

  Zhu Di said: "Really?"

  When these two words were said, although there was a questioning tone, Zhu Di's eyes were already full of smiles.

  Zhang Anshi turned his hands towards the sky, and said: "I dare to use my reputation as a guarantee."

  Zhu Di suddenly laughed and said: "He is just a grandpa like me. If he doesn't miss me, who else can he miss? This grandson is like me, and he will become a great weapon in the future."

  Zhang Anshi thought in his heart, Zhu Zhanji in history... is really similar to Zhu Di, basically continuing Zhu Di's national policy.

  Of course, this may be the reason why Zhu Di basically took Zhu Zhanji to "gain knowledge" when he set out on expeditions in history.

   "By the way, how is the wine selling?"

  Zhu Di's mind turned quickly, and he thought of the wine seller so quickly.

  Zhang An Shidao: "I have only started preparing these days, and I think it won't take long before it can be sold."

  Zhu Di pretended to be indifferent, and said: "How many bottles of wine have you made?"

   "Thirty thousand boxes." Zhang Anshi said: "This is the first batch."

  Zhu Di was taken aback, and subconsciously asked: "How many bottles are 30,000 boxes?"

  Zhang Anshi said: "A box of six bottles, um... about 180,000 bottles."'

  As soon as these words came out, Zhu Di's face changed slightly: "There are so many, five taels of silver, is it worth selling?"

  Zhang Anshidao: "Your Majesty, it depends on how much money the wealthy households in my Daming... have, and I can't say for sure."

  Zhu Di thought for a while, and frowned slightly. Although there are quite a lot of these wines, even if they are sold, they are only worth a million taels of silver, as if...not many.

  For the current Zhu Di, although it is not a small sum of money, it is not ecstatic.

  Zhang Anshi saw Zhu Di's thoughts, but he wanted to laugh in his heart. This majesty... still doesn't understand the tricks here.

  Next... it's time for His Majesty to really open his eyes.

  Farewell to Zhu Di, after leaving the palace, Zhang Anshi returned to Qixia without stopping.

  He had just settled down, but immediately ordered Zhu Jin to be summoned, and immediately began to explain.

   "From now on, all shops will start to distribute goods in an all-round way, and give me the signboard of our imperial brewing."

  Zhu Jin followed the goodness and said: "Yes."

  Zhang Anshi said again: "Okay, you go and call me Chen Li."

  Zhu Jin nodded and hurried away.

  When Chen Li came, Zhang Anshi took a look at him.

   "How is Beizhen Fusi doing recently?"

  Chen Li is now mainly in charge of the affairs of Neiqianhusuo and the Imperial Prison. The Beizhen Fusi really has nothing to do with him.

  However, Chen Li still obediently said: "Master Hou, there is nothing wrong..."

Zhang Anshi scolded: "Jin Yiwei's army, how can they be okay? If they have nothing to do, what is the court supporting them for? What a bunch of bastards, it's simply unreasonable. Our Nanzhen Fusi is responsible for supervising the Beizhen Fusi, you In the name of your business, go and order the thousands of households in Fusi, Beizhen! Tell them, if they want to eat rice, I, Zhang Anshi, will give them a sigh of relief, and they won't even think about it."

  Chen Li cheered up: "Yes, no one wants to eat for free. The humble side immediately dispatched the inner thousand households to go to the various thousand households to watch and see who is perfunctory."

Zhang Anshi said with satisfaction: "That's right, Jin Yiwei's duty is to monitor all officials, and Nan Zhen's governor's duty is to monitor Bei Zhen's governor, we are in this position, and we have to seek government affairs, you know? "

  Chen Li quickly said yes: "It's better for you, Lord Hou, to teach you a lesson. After thinking about it, everyone is indeed slack these days, and it's time to clean up."

Zhang Anshi said casually: "Then let Nanzhen Fusi, together with the thousands of households in Beizhen Fusi, do a good job for me. Tomorrow, let the military officers above the general banner of Nanbei Town Fusi come to me for a meeting. .”

   "Here!" Chen Li quickly responded.

  Afterwards, he came out suspiciously, scratched his head, and muttered in a low voice: "This time, which guy who doesn't have long eyes...offended our Lord Marquis?"

  ...

  The next day...

  The military officers from Fusi of Nanbei Town came out in full force and gathered in Qixia.

  Zhang Anshi mobilized directly, demanding that all the riders up and down should be released this winter. From the capital city to the provinces and state capitals, to severely crack down on certain illegal behaviors, everyone needs to work tirelessly.

  Of course everyone said yes.

   Those who dare not say yes, have been killed long ago.

  Although everyone still feels inexplicable in their hearts, why is the wind so tight all of a sudden.

  The most important thing is that Jin Yiwei is a spy. A spy, of course, sneaks into the night with the wind, moistens things silently, and can be as low-key as possible, but why is there such a big turmoil now?

   Someone is about to die, someone must have offended our Lord Hou, this time, if you don’t peel off his skin, how can you rest?

  Can be at the same time.

  In Chongwen Hall, a court meeting is also beginning.

  These important ministers above the third rank obviously did not realize that a storm was brewing in Nanzhen Fusi.

  They were called together for a court push.

   This time the court pushes, it is still an old topic, that is, the matter of Zhang Anshi being named Duke.

  At the beginning, it was also because of the duke designation, which was extremely controversial. Many people were full of complaints.

  But today, it is different, and he has made great achievements. Although it is poisoning, it can still be regarded as a military exploit.

  Plus this time, Yang Rong, who presided over Tingtui, seemed to agree with it, and Hu Guang did not object.

  The rest, such as Jin Zhong and Xia Yuanji, also expressed their support, and the situation soon turned one-sided.

  After the court meeting, a record of the court meeting was quickly sent to Zhu Di in Wenlou.

  Zhu Di did not participate in such a court push, because the officials were arguing about it, which was really meaningless.

  He has a bad temper and is very angry. Sometimes when he hears some strange talks, he can't help but get angry, so he simply hides.

  The record was brought in by Yi Shiha himself: "Your Majesty, Ting Tui has a result."

  Zhu Di looked up at him: "Has it passed?"

  Yi Shi laughed and said: "Your Majesty knows things like a god."

  Zhu Di said coldly: "If this time, if you still prevaricate, you really can't justify it. What did they say?"

  Yi Shiha said: "Jian Yi, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, proposed to be the Duke of Shunguo..."

   "Mr. Shun Guo?"

  Zhu Di immediately frowned, showing displeasure: "Zhang Anshi is a duke conferred with great merit. What does this word Shun... mean? Could it also be an allusion to Xiao Weiqing and Huo Qubing?"

   Zhu Di has been dealing with these ministers for a long time, and the so-called long-term illness becomes a doctor, and he has begun to figure out the routines of these civil servants.

The allusion mentioned by Zhu Di actually comes from the historical records. When Sima Qian wrote the historical records, perhaps because of personal emotional factors, he included Wei Qing and Huo Qubing in the "Biography of Ning Xing", and Deng Tong, Li Yannian, these emperor's male favorites tied.

  The so-called "Biography of Ning Xing", Sima Qian also has a special explanation, that is: since then, there are not enough families of domestic favorite ministers and foreign relatives. Wei Qing and Huo Qubing were also fortunate to have relatives, but they were quite capable of self-improvement.

   The general idea is that Wei Qing and Huo Qubing are both domestic favorite ministers, and Wei Qing and Huo Qubing are among them, and they can be regarded as motivated.

  Zhu Di is particularly dissatisfied with this section of Shiji. Nowadays, a group of civil servants actually launched a Shun Guogong, which seems to have some deep meaning.

  Probably regarded Zhang Anshi as a lucky minister, so he used Shun as the name.

   But obviously, Zhang Anshi's credit was covered up by this word.

Zhu Di raised his face, and said coldly: "I see, there is no need to be obedient, let them discuss it again, and write a note to Jian Yi, I know he has read poetry and books, and understands righteousness best, I hope he will not harbor selfish thoughts. "

  Yi Shiha naturally understood Zhu Di's thoughts, and hurriedly said: "This servant also thinks the same way."

He smiled, and continued: "When Ting Tui, everyone knew that Marquis Annan was a high-ranking duke, and it was a matter of course. But after all, Marquis Annan was quite controversial among scholars, so some people wanted to please both sides. On the one hand, it satisfies some yin and yang remarks among scholars. Second, and..."

Before Yi Shiha finished speaking, Zhu Di interrupted with a sneer: "Is it the scholars in the scholastic community, give them their salaries? Hmph, if you dare to be weird, then let them go to serve as officials in the scholastic community." gone."

  Yi Shiha hurriedly said yes.

Looking at Zhu Di's suffocated face, he turned to say: "Yes, Your Majesty, today... Qixia has summoned many military officers from Jinyiwei to a meeting, not only that, but also invited some people from Dongchang in the palace. go."

  Zhu Di finally distracted, raised his eyes and said, "What are you talking about?"

   "I don't know yet... No one has come back yet."

  Zhu Di nodded: "Dongchang and Nanbei Town Fusi are both my humerus, and we must work together."

   "Yes, the servant has remembered."

  ...

  At the other end, Zhang Anshi, who was in Qixia, satisfactorily finished the meeting, then happily sipped his tea with his feet up.

   Zhu Yong and the others came here in a hurry at this time.

  Zhu Yong said: "Brother, I heard that you are going to make trouble here, why don't you call us?"

  Zhang Anshi only casually said: "You don't need a sledgehammer to kill a chicken."

  As soon as these words came out, Zhu Yong and the three immediately regained their mental balance.

  Zhu Yong cheerfully said: "I thought something happened. Big brother, have you heard? Today's court push is for your business."

  Zhang An Shidao: "Of course I know, it's just that the more it is at this time, the harder it is for me to ask more questions."

Zhu Yong looked at Zhang Anshi with admiration and said: "Brother can still sit still. If it were me, I'm afraid... I would have been anxious to follow the ants in the hot pot. You don't know, when the court was discussing meritorious service, my father was about to be sealed When he was the Duke, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night, because he was afraid that someone who didn't have eyes would spoil his good deed."

  Zhang Anshi was happy: "Your father is like a second idiot."

  Zhu Yong suddenly showed a bit of gloom, and said with emotion: "Forget it, don't mention him. I will get angry when I mention this prodigal stuff."

   "However..." Zhang Zai said: "Theoretically speaking, there should be news at this time. Why hasn't there been an imperial edict yet?"

  Zhang Anshi calmly took a sip of tea, and said: "Don't worry, I'm not in a hurry, why panic?"
