Seiwa

Zhu Di is a stubborn person, and he will not change easily what he believes in.

For example, he thought that the heir chosen by his father was unqualified, so he raised an army to rob the throne without saying a word, but he succeeded.

Another example is that he always disliked Can Yuan, suppressed and bullied him in various ways, and finally put out the fire of the other party.

Although future generations failed to live up to their expectations, they made a change of civil engineering and ruined hundreds of thousands of elites of Ming Dynasty.But before Emperor Xuanzong of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty had always had a strategic advantage over the tribes of the Remnant Yuan Dynasty, and it was an indisputable fact that it suppressed the tribes of the Remnant Yuan Dynasty.

Emperor Hongwu laid the foundation, and Emperor Yongle carried it forward.

If the grassland tribes were to choose the worst neighbors to get along with, Emperor Hongwu and Emperor Yongle would definitely be at the top.

It's a pity that Ming Renzong didn't inherit the glorious tradition of his father, Ming Xuanzong didn't live for a few more years, Ming Yingzong... don't mention it, the change of Tumubao was written by this man, if Emperor Yongle can survive, he will definitely be slapped Shoot this great-grandson to death.

Now, there is no shadow of Ming Yingzong, Ming Xuanzong is still a brat, the future Ming Renzong has not even become a crown prince, and Emperor Yongle who has just ascended the throne is sharpening his sword and rushing to the neighbors.

Zhu Di was an emperor born for war, and fighting on the battlefield ran through his entire life.

It can be said that it was the fighting on the battlefield that created the Chengzu Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and it was also the Emperor Chengzu's long knife that cut out a Ming Dynasty that came to court from all nations.

No one can deny that the Ming Dynasty during the Chengzu period was definitely far ahead of the world in terms of military strength and technological level.

America is still slash-and-burn, and Europe is holding on to the tail of the Middle Ages.Britain and France, which can barely be regarded as developing countries, are still fighting to death. When mentioning Daming, it is definitely "oh, a myth in legend!"

In the process of chatting with Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui, Meng Qinghe drew a map of the world bit by bit, which made them more and more interested in the "outside world".

In fact, Meng Qinghe has little knowledge of the countries in the world today. Apart from the deep memory left by exam-oriented education, a lot of knowledge comes from unreliable film and television dramas.

But Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui listened with great interest, especially after hearing that the empress dowager of a certain country had never bathed all her life, but was conferred the title of "Saint", the expressions of the two brothers were really indescribable.

Don't take a bath all your life?Happened in the royal family, or the empress dowager?

Even if you are a beggar on the street, if you have nothing to do, you have to catch lice, clean it up, and never take a bath for the rest of your life... No, I can’t think about it anymore, otherwise I won’t be able to continue to eat at my uncle’s house today, and I won’t be able to eat after rubbing.

"Uncle Xingning, what you said is true?" Compared to Zhu Gaoxu, Zhu Gaosui is more adaptable, at least he can handle the snacks that are placed aside, "These are all told by the former Song survivor your?"

"Going back to the king of the county, I didn't believe it at the beginning. I always wanted to have a chance to see it with my own eyes." Meng Qinghe spread his hands with a regretful expression, "However, I heard that Qianyuan's army had been to these places. There are also sea ships coming from foreign countries, so it is not a fiction."

Zhu Gaosui nodded, his eyes became brighter and brighter.

The countries and continents mentioned in Meng Qinghe's words are extremely attractive to him.Although the empress dowager who doesn't take a bath is a bit of that, but just listen to it.

After all, he was interested in the crops and various anecdotes in Meng Qinghe's mouth.

What is it like on the other side of the ocean?

Uncivilized land?

Or a wider territory?

If given the chance, he would also like to see it with his own eyes.

When it was time for dinner, Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui got up to leave, Meng Qinghe tried to persuade them to stay, and the two brothers shook their heads together. It was the queen mother's order to go to the uncle's house for dinner, and it must be strictly followed.According to Uncle Xingning's words, it is to use family affection as a bond to repair the irreconcilable relationship between uncle and father.

The old man is a diehard, and the uncle can't easily bow his head. Zhu Gaochi and the old uncle can't talk about going together, so Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui can only go a few more times.

At first, the brothers were a little awkward, but after a long time, they found that there was nothing wrong with it.

Compared with the imperial palace, it is obviously more comfortable to stay in Duke Wei's mansion.

There were uncles and uncles discussing the art of war and martial arts together, and Uncle Xing Ning who was at the opposite door could talk about the mountains. From being urged out of the palace by Empress Xu to running outside three times a day, Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui were surprised by the rapid transformation.

I heard that the two younger brothers are getting closer and closer to Wei Guogong's mansion, and they often visit Xingning Bo's mansion. Zhu Gaochi sat in the room for a long time, and finally could only shake his head. He and the two younger brothers have different personalities, and their life pursuits may be similar. The methods are ultimately different.

What Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui can do, he may not be able to do.On the contrary, what he can do may not be feasible for his two younger brothers.

His father had already let him listen to the government, and a group of civil servants in the court expressed their kindness to him openly and secretly.

At this time, Zhu Gaochi was more humble and cautious than ever before.

The eldest son is also the eldest son of Emperor Hongwu. According to the tradition, as long as Zhu Gaochi doesn't get angry, the crown prince will definitely belong to him.

More than [-]% of civil servants think so, especially Xie Jin and others.

Although Zhu Neng and others who followed Zhu Di from Beiping all the way to Beijing have more class feelings than Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui, Zhu Di also showed that he prefers the second son and the third son, and Zhu Di has to seriously consider it when he is suppressed by the big hat of establishing a family. Reality.

Less than half a year after Zhu Di ascended the throne, civil servants and military generals faintly split into factions.

Under such circumstances, it is not so strange that civil servants use dirty tricks to suppress military generals, and military generals roll up their sleeves and want to beat civil servants.

Both sides are looking for opportunities, judging by their ranks, it is obvious that Wen Chenqi is superior.

Xie Jin and the others may not really see Shen Xuan's various dislikes, so they must use evil tricks on him. Who made Shen Xuan hit the muzzle of the gun?

Son of Heaven, son of heaven, among the top five generals in Jingnan, it is said that he even saved the life of King Gaoyang. This is a false rumor, but Meng Qinghe who saved people was under Shen Xuan's command, so it is not an exaggeration to count him.

In addition, the former Marquis Dingyuan was an orphan, and he didn't even have a family temple, leaving Shen Xuan alone, without family support at all, it was simply the best target!

So, taking advantage of the queen's opportunity to pick a daughter-in-law, many people began to move.

They must let the emperor see how serious the consequences will be once the general's influence continues to expand in the court.Even if he is His Majesty's adoptive son, or his confidant who joins His Majesty in raising troops, he cannot be 100% trusted.

It is true that martial arts can rejuvenate the country, but those who can really help the emperor govern the country and appease the people will always be civil servants!

On this point, Emperor Jianwen did a good job. Although his life was a bit unlucky and it is inconvenient to mention it, there is still a son who likes to read and has a kind personality, which can be used as a model.

Zhu Di understood the thoughts of the ministers in the court very clearly, and it was precisely because of his understanding that he became even more angry.

This kind of anger reached its climax when Shen Xuan "polluted himself".

what a boy!What a loyal subject!

She was sympathetic to Shangyi and didn't want to embarrass him, so she didn't hesitate to use such an excuse to refuse the marriage, and extinguished the flame that hadn't ignited from the source.

As much as Zhu Di was angry with those who played tricks behind his back, he was as moved by Shen Xuan's actions.

No matter how many times Shen Xuan explained, even if Zhu Di recognized what was in his heart, he couldn't pull the horse back.While patting Shen Xuan's shoulder, he pinched the 45 corners of his nose and wept.

"Don't worry, Royal Father will never let you be wronged!"

Shen Xuan was at a loss, completely at a loss.

He could only silently exit the main hall, leave the palace, and return to Dingyuanhou's mansion, sitting alone in the room thinking hard.

Which link is wrong?

How did things get to this point?

What words and actions did he make the emperor misunderstand?

The point is, if this continues, how long will he have to climb the wall before he ends up?

Shen Xuan thought for a long time, but still couldn't figure it out.

Meng Qing next door and Lord Shen who hadn't waited to climb the wall couldn't help feeling strange.

In the past, it was rain or shine, what happened today?

The guards of the Hou Mansion and the Bo Mansion were also surprised. The guards of the Bo Mansion patrolled the wall where Shen Xuan often haunted, put up a ladder to probe, and waved to the guards of the Hou Mansion. Isn't Ding Yuan Hou in the mansion today?Or unwell?

The guard of Hou's mansion said that he was there, but he didn't see the doctor.

The guard of the uncle's house wanted to ask again, but suddenly someone pulled him from below. He turned his head and was about to stare, but when he saw who was standing below, he was so frightened that he almost slipped off the ladder.

"Uncle, Uncle?"

Meng Qinghe was dressed in a blue uniform, with the hem lifted, tucked into his belt, and pointing his finger at the guard on the ladder, "Get down, let me get on."

The guard closed his mouth, and got off the ladder in a hurry, watching Meng Qing and Li Luo climb up, propped up against the wall, and disappeared on the opposite side, without making a sound for a long time.

Maintaining the posture facing Yue Wangtian, he sighed at the end, it turned out that Uncle's skills are also so amazing!

No wonder it was rumored that he beheaded five ranks in World War I, an absolute iron-blooded man!

On the other side of the wall, Meng Qinghe stood up, patted the dust on his uniform, and grinned at the dumbfounded Hou Mansion guards, "Where is the main courtyard? Lead the way."

He originally wanted to go there by himself, but the area of ​​the Hou Mansion was too large, and it was close to the back garden, with rockery and stone paths, pavilions and weeping willows, and various flowers, which looked beautiful during the day, but seemed like walking a maze at night.

The guards did not dare to delay, and brought Meng Qinghe to the main courtyard as quickly as possible.

"Uncle, Lord Hou is in the first room, please."

After finishing speaking, I felt that this was not right. I scratched my chin, thinking too much?

The gate of the courtyard was not locked, Meng Qinghe was not as skilled as Shen Xuan, nor did he have the hobby of climbing walls without going astray.

Pushing open the courtyard door, walked to the door and stood still, looking behind him, no one was there.

Turning around, he coughed and knocked on the door three times, "Master Hou, are you here, just answer?"

There was no sound from inside the door.

Meng Qinghe knocked a few more times, but there was still no sound.

Raise your hand again, and the door opens.

Shen Xuan, dressed in a red unicorn suit, stood inside the door, wearing a jade belt around his waist, the beam crown has been removed, and there is only a jade hairpin in his hair.

Looking over with black eyes, Meng Qinghe opened his mouth and scratched his chin. What did he want to say just now?

Before he could think of it, a strong arm was already around his waist, easily dragging him into the room.

Close the door, lock it.

That night, Uncle Xingning stayed in Dingyuanhou's mansion.

The guards of Hou Mansion and Bo Mansion were not surprised.Hou Ye and Bo Ye have a good friendship, and they often talk by candlelight at night.It's just that if you don't go through the gate, you all like to climb the wall.

In the next few days, the one who climbed the wall was replaced by Marquis Dingyuan. Afterwards, several rumors began to circulate in Beijing.

It is said that the Marquis of Dingyuan didn't love confidante but blue face, that's why he didn't get engaged for a long time.

It is also said that the Marquis of Dingyuan already has someone he likes, but he pursued him hard and failed. What a worry, he spends all day in the Hou's mansion wielding knives and guns, screaming and killing, and the barrels of the guns are broken.

It is also said that Marquis Dingyuan suffered from lovesickness and sleepwalking. In the middle of the night, he climbed over the wall on time, just to see the person he likes.

Over the wall?Meet someone you like?

So, Ding Yuanhou's favorite lives nearby?

Everyone got together and listed the buildings near Dingyuanhou's Mansion one by one. Looking at the list, their expressions became more and more exciting.

Duke Wei's Mansion, Marquis Wuyang Mansion, Marquis Changxing Mansion, Duke Cao Mansion...

The hand holding the pen trembled a little, and the beard was pulled off.

Marquis Dingyuan's favorite among them?

It can't be done without shaking, it's too scary.

The Xingningbo Mansion, which is only separated by a wall from the Dingyuanhou Mansion, was completely ignored, not even mentioned by a single person.

Nothing surprising, there is a word called black under the lamp.There is another saying that the level is not enough.

The princes and princes are standing in line, a second-class uncle... It is indeed easy to be ignored.

The rumors intensified, and the palace specially summoned Shen Xuan to inquire. Everyone was full of anticipation of how the emperor would react. After all, Marquis Dingyuan was the adopted son of the emperor, so there must be an explanation for such rumors.

This kind of thing happens to ordinary people, at most a young and romantic.Putting it on Marquis Dingyuan, he had to consider many aspects.

Is it the slander of political opponents, or the activities of the Jianwen Remnant Party?

In the end, the people who were waiting to watch the play were extremely disappointed. Marquis Ding Yuan walked around the palace, but nothing happened.Instead, after Marquis Dingyuan left the palace, the emperor became angry.

"Xuan'er is so loyal and filial, I want to see who is plotting against Xuan'er, plotting against me!"

In the Buddhist temple where Daoyan Qing was repairing, Meng Qinghe suddenly sneezed, rubbed his nose, and said to Daoyan who was resting with his eyes closed: "Master, it's your turn."

There was a chessboard in front of the two of them, on which black and white pieces were fighting, and the white pieces had a clear advantage.

Knowing that Meng Qinghe is not good at Go, Dao Yan often drags him to play Go.

According to the great monk, how could his apprentice have shortcomings.The gentleman, the six doctors, the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting must be able to do everything.

Meng Qinghe had a headache for a while, so he did as the great monk asked.

The great monk taught him sincerely, and the chess game was just an introduction.

Just as he pretended to ask the survivors of the former Song Dynasty to tell Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui the overseas customs and customs, Daoyan also taught him more principles through the game of chess.

Meng Qinghe was very grateful to Dao Yan, even if he still didn't call out to Master, it still didn't hinder his gratitude to the Great Monk.

Recently, the capital city was not peaceful, Dao Yan often asked him to come, but it also helped him avoid a lot of right and wrong.

Even if he was the one who pushed this undercurrent, Meng Qinghe didn't want to be involved in it now.

He was ready to wait for the best moment, one hit to achieve his goal.

Meng Qinghe is no longer Wu Xia Ameng, nor is it Xiao Xiami who struggled desperately to survive four years ago.For his own sake, and also to trick some people who are not pleasing to the eye, he discussed this chess game with Shen Xuan.

Although you have to take some risks, if you can get satisfactory results, it is worth it.

Dao Yan picked up a chess piece, thought for two seconds, and landed on the chessboard.

It must be admitted that Meng Qinghe is smart and has aura, but he is still not good enough in front of Dao Yan.

Years make people old, and the lost time is also the precipitation of life.

Dao Yan's experience and life experience are not comparable to Meng Qinghe, at least not comparable to him now.

"It's time to go back." The chess piece fell, and the outcome was uncertain, but Dao Yan twirled the Buddhist beads with one hand, and said with a smile, "My good apprentice, at this time next month, I will finish this game with you as a teacher."

Meng Qinghe didn't speak, and stood up to salute Daoyan.

Is the great monk telling him that there are still omissions in the chess game?

But things have come to this, 99 steps to go out, not missing the last step.

If he doesn't seize this opportunity, he will definitely regret it.

"Master, this junior will bid farewell."

"Go." Dao Yan closed his eyes slightly, "For the teacher, he spent his whole life to find the enlightened master for the world. The apprentice will do his best to be the teacher's true biography, and he will surely fulfill his wish."

Meng Qinghe: "..."

It is so righteous and dignified to talk about motivating Yongle to rebel, besides Daoyan, there is no other one, right?

Said that he was able to achieve his wish, and boasted about it by the way?

Can such a master be recognized?

Meng Qinghe moya, absolutely not.

When going down the mountain, it was no accident that he ran into Shen Xuan who came to pick him up.

It rained continuously in winter, and he was used to the weather in the north, but Meng Qinghe was not used to the damp and cold in the south.

A cloak was draped over his shoulders, Shen Xuan was riding a horse, but the carriage was prepared for Meng Qinghe.

There is a hand stove and hot water for snacks in the car.Meng Qinghe smiled slowly seeing the pot-bellied kettle fixed on the low table in a strange style.

Holding up the hand stove and opening the curtain of the car, Shen Xuan turned his head just in time, and his eyes met. It didn't last for a few seconds, but the face he saw in the other's eyes seemed to last forever.

Leaning against the car wall, Meng Qinghe closed his eyes.

Once you make a decision, you can't regret it.

For his family, he fought once and won.

For himself, he will fight again.

Whether he wins or loses, he has no regrets.

In the 35th year of Hongwu, on the first day of November in winter, the Great Dynasty.

With the sound of ceremonies and music from Fengtian Hall, the civil and military ministers in court clothes were divided into two groups and entered the hall.

"kneel!"

After Fu Di paid his respects to the Son of Heaven, there was a brief silence in the hall.

A tense atmosphere continued to gather.

After announcing the matter again, a member of the Rites Department stepped out of the ranks of civil servants and said in a loud voice: "The minister has played! The minister Shen Xuan, the Marquis of Dingyuan, is not upright, acts wantonly and does not cultivate, makes friends with courtiers, plots wrongdoings, and deceives the emperor!"

As soon as this remark came out, the generals of the right squad glared angrily, especially Zhu Neng, Zhang Fu and others, all of whom had blue veins when they held Chaofen's hand.If it wasn't in the main hall, if you are afraid of accidentally killing people, and it is difficult to explain to the emperor, you will 100% rush out and give him an old punch,

Standing upright, plotting wrong, deceiving the king?

The mouth of the civil servant and the official, with the upper lip touching the lower lip, red mouth and white teeth splashing dirty water, so wanton slander, are you not afraid of thunder? !

On the dragon chair, Zhu Di's face also became gloomy.

The dangling crown of the crown covered his face, but it couldn't hide the murderous aura emanating from his body.

Maybe it's because the position of the dragon chair is too high, or maybe it's because the officials' ability to withstand pressure is extraordinary. Four people from the six subjects came out, and more than half of the left and right sides stood up, singing in unison. Marquis Dingyuan.

From life style issues to unique interests and hobbies, to gossip in the capital, every detail can be described.That's not to mention, the homestead occupies a lot of land, privately built in the yard, disobeyed Emperor Taizu Gao's edict, and digging ponds in the garden has to be said.

Speaking of excitement, even the former Dingyuan Hou Shen Liang was pulled out to increase his persuasiveness.

The upper beam is not upright and the lower beam is crooked, the father is not upright, he has been reprimanded by Emperor Gao several times, and he was also involved in the blue jade conspiracy case, so the son is not much better!

What's more, he cried bitterly in court, and said with heartbreak: Marquis Dingyuan is murderous, his life style is not correct, and all officials in Beijing are in danger.How can such a person deserve to be a Marquis?How can he be called a first-class hero?

You must be expelled, dismissed from office, confiscated property, and exiled!

Those related to him, such as Zhang Fu and others, should also be investigated to rectify the court!

"Your Majesty, please be careful!"

"This shameless person, I don't want to be an official in the same dynasty with him!"

The more the speaker spoke, the more excited he became. A military officer stood up to speak for Shen Xuan, but was quickly pushed back by the civil servant.

Zhu Di's complexion could no longer be described as black. Those who are familiar with him know that this is a sign that he is going to kill someone.Zheng He's back by the royal platform was cold, and he wished he could rush down and punch one by one, killing all the civil servants who were good at singing and singing.

You are looking for death, and don't trouble others!

Shen Xuan, who had been scolded so badly, never spoke. When Zhu Di turned his gaze to him, he stepped out, knelt on the ground, his back stopped, and his face was resolute.

Nothing was said, but everything was said.

All the military officers clenched their fists, not to mention Zhu Neng and Zhang Fu, even Chen Xuan and others who had voted for Zhu Di later had red eyes.

The Marquis Dingyuan kneeling in the hall reminded them of his colleagues who were innocently imprisoned during the Jianwen Dynasty.

Defending the country, defending the frontier, fighting to the death on the battlefield, but being criticized by these officials!

He Gu!

The emperor refused to express his position for a long time, and the officials thought it was a trick, and the passion for fighting became more and more intense.

The left deputy governor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate was about to go out and took the opportunity to add a handful of firewood, but he heard a cough from behind.Turning his head, he frowned, Yang Shiqi?

While hesitating, one of the military generals from the right squad stood up, holding a court fluoren, with a gold medal hanging from his waist, handsome in appearance, not like a general, but like a civil servant.

It was Xingning Bo Meng Qinghe.

"Your Majesty, I have something to say."

Seeing Uncle Xing Ning come out, most of the civil servants showed contempt, only Xie Jin and others who had dealt with Meng Qinghe showed deep thought, and vaguely felt that today's events might cause another twists and turns.
