Chapter 1144: The Talent of the Pillars
In the Qianqing Palace of the Forbidden City, the ministers were preparing to meet the Son of Heaven, and in the East Palace, Zhu Houzhao was bored with the eunuch to play cards, and he suddenly became interested, and he didn't know that he was tired after playing for a few hours, so he had to force the eunuch to play cards with him, and whoever didn't play would be dragged out and spanked. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Because the emperor is such a son, the position of the crown prince is very stable, and no one can threaten the position of Zhu Houzhao, making him always a demon king of the world.
The eunuchs did not dare to disobey the will of this master, and they all stayed with them until late at night, and Zhu Houzhao played so well that he couldn't rest at all.
"Prince, it's time for you to rest."
Zhang Yuan did not participate in playing cards, not that he didn't want to, but Zhu Houzhao didn't take him to play, because Zhang Yuan always likes to let cards, once or twice Zhu Houzhao still feels a sense of achievement, but after a long time, Zhu Houzhao was found to be greasy, Zhu Houzhao hates most is that others deceive him, Zhang Yuan's behavior is purely asking for trouble.
Zhu Houzhao was annoyed by losing a game, and said angrily: "Didn't you see that Bengong was playing cards? And it won't delay tomorrow's morning class, you go down to the palace! ”
Zhang Yuan didn't dare to say more with a bitter face, and thought: "Where is not delaying the morning class, it is obvious that they are sleeping while the morning class, those self-proclaimed East Palace lecturers have a high reputation in the court, but they always let the prince mess around." If you want to say that the prince is not young, how can he still be like a child who has not grown up? ”
In fact, Zhu Houzhao is not very old, and he will be a sixth-grade student in the next generation. But Zhang Yuan has deep hopes for Zhu Houzhao, because Zhang Yuan feels that only Zhu Houzhao can maintain his future in the second half of his life, and the man has no ability to enjoy the most basic pleasures, and now his children are not around, and his wife has not seen each other for many years, and now he doesn't know whether his wife abides by women's morals.
In his cynical mood, Zhang Yuan deepened his dependence on the prince and the Zhang brothers little by little, knowing that it was a hot face and a cold ass, he still refused to flatter.
Zhang Yuan saw that he couldn't persuade the prince, and he was afraid that the Qianqing Palace and Kunning Palace would learn about it, so he could only change the topic intentionally or unintentionally:
"Prince, I heard that many ministers are going to the Qianqing Palace tonight, it should be a new situation in the war in the northwest, maybe after the great victory in the northwest, there is new news of victory!"
"Huh? How do you know? ”
Speaking of the things in the northwest, it really attracted Zhu Houzhao's interest in the past, Zhu Houzhao usually likes to inquire about what happened in the three sides and the land of Xuanda, or he is particularly concerned about the affairs of Shen Xi, as for whether Liu Daxia has won any battles in Ningxia Town, he really doesn't have the heart to ask.
It was precisely because Zhu Houzhao was interested that Zhang Yuan paid extra attention to this matter, and he knew that there was a big movement on the side of the celebrant that night, and there were many ministers entering the palace, so he said this.
Zhang Yuan said: "The master of ceremonies sent people out of the palace to invite people, but there were not enough people, so I found a few from other places. ”
"Okay, you Zhang Yuan, you dare to ask about the affairs of the court casually, it's really damned!" Zhu Houzhao scolded, but he threw the cards aside with a smile, stood up and clapped his hands, "It shouldn't be possible for my father to sleep at this time, right?" Let's go, go with the palace to say hello to my father! ”
"Your Highness, you ......"
Zhang Yuan said this, the original intention was to attract Zhu Houzhao's interest, so that Zhu Houzhao would no longer play cards and go to rest, or not to find so many eunuchs to gather in the palace, it is easy to leak the news of the prince's late sleep with too many people.
If the prince stays in the dormitory alone, no matter whether he sleeps peacefully or not, no one will go to Kunning Palace to chew his tongue.
I never thought that Zhu Houzhao heard that something big was happening in the northwest, and he actually wanted to go to his emperor's father in the middle of the night to say goodbye, needless to say that the prince wanted to taste the sense of accomplishment of speaking in front of the emperor.
Zhu Houzhao said that after Shen Xi encountered the main Tatar force in Xuanfu in Xuanfu, he began to feel that he was a qualified prince and could preside over the government in the future.
Zhang Yuan hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, it is the dead of night now, the frost is falling outside, and the night is heavy and dewy, why bother to go to the Qianqing Palace?" Besides, this palace is strictly forbidden, and you have not been summoned, how can you enter and exit the palace in the middle of the night? ”
Zhu Houzhao said dissatisfiedly: "This is the palace, I am walking around the palace, do the guards dare to stop it when they see the palace?" The palace said that his father was seriously ill and wanted to see him...... It's just a matter of verbal information, you just have to lie to Hongu. You don't want to go against the will of Hongu, do you? ”
Zhang Yuan wanted to slap his mouth, saying something bad, but he said something that made the prince even more unorthodox, the prince was also used to messing around, and he actually went to see the emperor at night, and let him, a regular attendant, go with him, and when he arrived at the Qianqing Palace, he really didn't know how to explain.
After the prince recklessly made his remarks, the emperor controlled the prince even more, so that the requirements for the permanent attendants of the East Palace were also raised a lot, and Zhang Yuan could already foresee the tragic situation of his ass being beaten.
"Alas! Being in the East Palace, and having such a master, this errand is not easy to do! Zhang Yuan said in a complaining tone.
……
……
Inside the Qianqing Palace.
The celebrant took the seal of the eunuch Xiao Jing and presented Shen Xi's recital to Zhu Youji. Zhu Youzhu coughed twice, and after acupuncture at Taiyi, his body had recovered, but he still looked tired.
Zhu Youzhu waved his hand, pushed Shen Xi's uplink aside, and his gaze fell on Xie Qian. Xiao Jing was so shrewd, he quickly picked it up from the dragon couch and respectfully handed it to Xie Qian.
The previous recital was read by Xie Qian himself, and this time it involved Shen Xi's affairs, and Xiao Jing also felt that it was more appropriate for Xie Qian to read it.
Xie Qian had read the report before, and now it was easier to read, and it was all about what he wanted to hear, Shen Xi was very cautious in the words used in the recital, and his thinking was logical, which made Xie Qian very comfortable to read, because every sentence can get to the point, and it is the kind that hits the nail on the head, it seems that Shen Xi has a very good set of speculating about people's psychology, knowing what others want to know and what they are worried about......
Xie Qian read it, and had a thought in his heart: "As worthy of being the champion, Shen Xi'er is not only very good at marching and fighting, but also a good hand at writing newspapers." In the future, if he can return to the court and enter the cabinet to do things, I am afraid that it will not be long before he can lead the cabinet, and even the old man is ashamed of himself! ”
In Shen Xi's prelude, the organization is very clear, first explain the situation around Xuanfu, based on what Shen Xi knows, and then show the situation that happened in the Tumu Fort, including the situation of food and grass for the soldiers after the battle, including the lack of water in the city fortress, and a series of arrangements after that.
Shen Xi's meaning is that he is ready to stand by in Tumubao and wait for reinforcements, and will not blindly break through.
Although Shen Xi mentioned the danger of Xuanfu and Zhangjiakou Fort in the previous recital, because Shen Xi did not get any news about these two fortresses at that time, Shen Xi did not dare to make a conclusion about what would happen to these two fortresses.
After Xie Qian finished reading, everyone was silent, except for Zhu Youji, who sighed and said, "Shen Qing's family is really the talent of my Ming Dynasty!" ”
