I'm really not the carpenter emperor

These notebooks, Zhu Youxiao looked at them calmly, throwing one at a time, but when he saw a question book, he read it carefully.

This is the article Zhenmeng compiled by the Imperial Academy.

Zhu Youxiao looked a little familiar with this name. After thinking for a while, he suddenly remembered, isn't this brother the champion of this year's palace examination!

Not only is it the current second year of the apocalypse, but in history, this brother Zhenmeng was also the top pick in the second year of the apocalypse.

After Wen Zhenmeng won the number one scholar, he was incorporated into the Imperial Academy for editing. This position is often given to cabinet ministers and court officials, and the starting point is higher than everyone else.

In this way, literary talent should be extraordinary?

Zhu Youxiao paid a little attention to this kind of person's memorials, opened it and looked carefully, but at the first glance, he frowned a little.

Wen Zhenmeng is actually persuading!

The first place in the palace examination was hand-picked by himself, the emperor. It stands to reason that Wen Zhenmeng didn't agree with the demolition of the ten princes' mansion, and he shouldn't go against him in Shangshu. This is blatantly wrong!

This matter has come to this point, if he, the emperor, is really cowardly, wouldn't he be slapping himself in the face!

Appointed him as the number one scholar, could it be that he is not even a bit loyal?

Focusing on Wen Zhenmeng's memorabilia, Zhu Youxiao sneered again and again, completely losing interest in this year's liberal arts champion whom he hand-picked this year.

"In the 200 years since Emperor Ming moved the capital, there has never been such a precedent!"

"If the King of Xin reaches adulthood, he will be a vassal state soon. His Majesty's relatives and affection will be appreciated by the world. The border is dangerous and the military supplies are in short supply. I implore you to suspend the school's fortifications for a while, so that we can overcome the difficulties together!"

Seeing this, Zhu Youxiao was angry.

Wang Chaofu, the steward of the Qianqing Palace, saw him, hurriedly stopped the little Gong'e who was about to go in to replace the tribute tea, and waited quietly.

"This Wen Zhenmeng, fortunately, I appointed him the number one scholar!"

The more Zhu Youxiao thought about it, the more angry he went, he walked to the Xuande furnace and threw the memorial into it. Looking at the gradually growing fire, he said:

"By flesh and blood, please persuade me to be merciful, and believe that the king is old enough to ask me to stay in the mansion, and then I will run out of military supplies, so that I will not be able to start work!"

"So thoughtful, so calculating!"

"If this kind of thought is not used to fight for the party's fame and profit for the country, he should be an important minister of the court!"

"Unfortunately, unfortunately..."

When Zhu Youxiao said this, he stopped abruptly, returned to the imperial case, and wrote down all the memorials to persuade Liufu to write four characters:

"I know."

After the reply was completed, Zhu Youxiao stood up and said to Wang Chaofu:

"In the 20th year of Wanli, Annan was in charge of the civil strife. The Li family sent Zheng Song to defeat the Mo family. The territory of the Ming Dynasty was able to expand to the Annan Shenglong area. This is a good thing."

"However, I heard that after Zheng Song won the victory, he became defiant. He appointed himself the 'Marshal of the Capital, the Chief State Officer, Shangfu Ping'an King', known as Lord Zheng, and the imperial envoy of the Annan Metropolitan Government, but let him stand aside."

"After that, in the south of Annan, there was also the Nguyen family who openly opposed the Lai family."

"No matter how you say it, Mrs. Li is also appointed by the imperial court as the commander of the Annan capital. The situation has become chaotic like this, it can't be done."

With that said, Zhu Youxiao took a sip of the slightly cold tribute tea, and said lightly:

"Emperor Shenzong disliked that Annan's land was barren and the natives were disobedient to discipline, so he didn't want to pay attention to it, but I think differently from Emperor Shenzong."

"Annan's current situation, if the imperial court doesn't intervene, I'm afraid that the tyrants of those small countries will really regard themselves as kings."

"Especially that Zheng family, he should be punished properly."

"I passed on the decree, canonize King Rui as the King of Annan, and go to Shenglong to take over the feudal domain. Li Weiqi is still the commander-in-chief of Annan, and the commander-in-chief of the capital will not be dismissed for the time being."

"Arrange King Gui to go to Fuchun in Annan to become a vassal. The current area of ​​the Ruan family will be assigned to him as a fief."

Zhu Youxiao thought for a while and continued:

"There is also King Hui, go to the Khmer king's city and become a vassal. The envoys there surrendered to the court last year at the court ceremony. I canonized him as the Khmer king."

"As for the Ten Princes' Mansions, leave one for my younger brother, and continue to demolish the other nine. Let the clan's mansions go, and those who don't want to leave, regardless of whether they are relatives of the emperor or relatives of the state, will leave the house clean!"

……

On the second day, the morning light opened, and the drizzle in the wilderness fell on the vast Ten Kings Mansion in the east of Beijing, shining a short-lived colorful brilliance.

However, this kind of beautiful scenery, after all, turned into nothingness in just a moment.

Before the Jade Palace and Qionglou in the palace were covered with dust, the only few grains of dust were shaken off by a burst of hurried footsteps.

A group of people from the clan's mansion dressed in white came to Prince Rui's mansion, and the eunuch Cao Huachun, who was the leader, climbed up the stone steps and called out tentatively:

"My lord, the clan's mansion is here to invite you out of the mansion!"

There were crackling sounds inside, accompanied by the sound of approaching footsteps, but it was a graceful and luxurious woman who opened the door of the mansion and said:

"My lord is still asleep, come in."

Cao Huachun stopped the rest of the people in the clan mansion, went straight in, followed behind the princess, and smiled softly:

"Your Majesty has a will. This time, it's a happy event."

The princess sighed.

"The demolition of the palace, what a happy event, my father-in-law was joking."

Cao Huachun smiled slightly and didn't say much.

Not long after, Rui Wang Zhu Changhao woke up from the bed, got out of the bed with a face of reluctance, put on his boots, and snorted coldly:

"Proclaim the decree!"

It seemed that he had already guessed the ending similar to King Fu.

Cao Huachun cleared his throat, carefully took out a bright yellow scroll, spread it out in mid-air, and said in a moderate tone:

"Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the imperial edict said:

Annan Metropolitan Commander Division has been in turmoil for a long time, lost the original intention of the ancestors' establishment, split into disasters, and also belonged to the country.The local people are also my people, and I ordered: Stabilize Annan.

Zhu Changhao, king of Charui, lived in Beijing for several years, his neighbors lived in peace, he respected the emperor's imperial edict, he was cautious in his words and deeds, and he never bullied the people.

I am hereby canonized as the King of Annan, and given the edict and iron certificate, I will immediately go to Shenglong to become a vassal!This is it. "

After these words, Zhu Changhao was so stupid that he canonized himself as King Annan?

What's going on, the sun came out from the west.

This is not over yet, after Cao Huachun announced the decree, he said:

"My lord, don't worry, King Gui has also been canonized to Annan. His Majesty said that the two lords can support each other after they take office. If the Zheng family and the Ruan family have any intention of coercion, they should inform the court and Daming will definitely send troops to help."

As he spoke, he laughed and said:

"After all, no matter what, you are also the prince of our Ming Dynasty, how can you allow that small country to bully you?"

Chapter 215 Can't Guess, Can't Guess

King Rui was still in shock, and the rest of King Gui and King Hui were even more disturbed and couldn't escape.But judging from Fu Wang's fate, staying here is more equivalent to waiting for death.

Almost at the same time that Cao Huachun went to Prince Rui's mansion to announce the decree, two eunuchs who attended the ceremonies brought the people from the clan's mansion to the mansions of King Gui and King Hui.

King Hui Zhu Changrun, the sixth son of Emperor Shenzong Zhu Yijun, his biological mother Concubine Li Jing, the same mother as King Gui Zhu Changying, has a good nature and worships Buddha.

In August of the seventh year of the apocalypse in history, Chongzhen ascended the throne and forced him to take over Jingzhou Prefecture.

Unlike Rui Wang Zhu Changhao, who can still fall asleep at this time, Zhu Changrun has no sleep all night, just sitting alone in the study, eating fast and worshiping Buddha.

"Squeak-"

With the sound of opening the door, the princess walked into the study with two maids from the palace, and combed his hair personally.

Zhu Changrun slowly opened his eyes, let the princess wash himself rough, and asked lightly:

"come yet."

"Both the Clan Mansion and the Supervisor of Rituals have come, saying that they want to announce the decree, but we don't know where we are going in the future."

As the princess said, her hand became a little heavier due to her emotional changes.

Zhu Changrun felt the princess's fingers trembling slightly, turned his head to face her, and was about to say a few words to comfort her, but heard noises from the outer room.

"My lord, they are here!" The butler hurried over, picked up a hammer, and said:

"The lord and the concubine are leaving quickly, the old servant resists them for a while!"

"No, if you escape from the palace, you won't be able to escape from the capital. Even if you can escape from the capital, where is the king's land in the whole world?"

"Could it be that the relatives in this whole house are all wandering with me?"

Zhu Changrun's eyes were extremely firm, as if he had just watched the matter of comforting the princess, he closed his eyes, sat cross-legged, and waited quietly.

However, the slight trembling of the short beard under his lips revealed that his heart was not as peaceful as it seemed.

The concubine was not so indifferent, she got up in a hurry, like an ant on a hot pan, with tears in her eyes, not knowing what to do.

Just when everyone in Prince Hui's Mansion in the study was nervous, it was the butler who ran back again, beaming with joy and saying:

"I found out—"

"The eunuch who came over said it was a good news!"

"Happy news? What joy is there?"

The princess pondered for a moment, then walked slowly to the stool and sat down slowly. At this moment, Zhu Changrun gave her a wink.

When the concubine came behind her, she held her breath and continued to wash and comb her hair, Zhu Changrun opened his eyes and said:

"You go and serve the best tea in the mansion to the eunuch in charge of ceremonies, and let him wait for a while. After I get dressed, I will go with the princess."

The butler responded, and hurried back to meet the big peng in front of him.

After the housekeeper left, the princess stared blankly at Zhu Changrun who got up to tidy up his clothes by himself, and suddenly asked:

"Did you really believe what the eunuch said?"

"Do not believe."

"If you don't believe me, why should you pay so much attention to it..." In the heart of the princess, there were faint ripples of a little woman.

Hearing this, Zhu Changrun's eyes were serious, he turned his head and said:

"It's because I am Prince Daming."

After saying that, his eyes became gentle, and he began to dress the gawking concubine, muttering:

"Look at your appearance, you don't have the appearance of a dignified princess of the Ming Dynasty. Remember, no matter what time you are, you can't lose your luxury."

"Remember, my lord."

……

Eunuch Wang Cheng'en was sitting in the main hall on the west side of the palace.

The butler personally served a cup of Duyun Maojian cooked in plum blossom snow water, and bowed to the side, apologetically smiling, for fear that the big peng might be dissatisfied.

Now the supervisor of ceremonies is in charge of the seal, it is Wei Zhongxian who is known as the factory owner.

When mentioning Wei Zhongxian, no one would feel chills down their backs, but when mentioning Xu Xianchun, most people would only feel fear.

The former brings viciousness, but the latter gives everyone the impression of viciousness.

Compared with Cao Huachun who was promoted to Bingbi by his own ability, Wang Chengen seemed much mediocre.

It was by flattering Cao Huachun that he was able to fill the vacancy in the Supervisor of Rituals, and it was also because Cao Huachun was strongly recommended by the senior officials in the Supervisor of Rites that he was able to get such a great job to announce the decree in Prince Hui's Mansion.

Wang Chengen didn't intend to drink tea at first, but when he smelled the aroma, his eyes were straightened, and he still couldn't help picking up the cup and taking a sip.

Immediately, praised:

"The mouth is full of heavenly flavors, the lord is so elegant, this altar of snowflake fragrance complements me as an eunuch, I'm afraid it's a waste."

Wang Chengen couldn't put it down, so he took another sip and sniffed vigorously before putting down the cup.

"It's just the snow water that lives at the bottom of the stream, and my father-in-law praises it too much."

Wang Chengen was startled when he heard the words, turned around and looked a little surprised, Zhu Changrun, the king of Hui, and Yan Shi, the princess, each wearing the ordinary clothes of the prince and princess, came towards him gracefully.

He was taken aback for a moment, then quickly put down the teacup, and said:

"My lord is above, how can my servants bear the title of my lord, my servants can't afford it."

Zhu Changrun chuckled lightly, and after comforting Yan, he leaned over and helped Wang Chengen up, saying:
