Chapter 443: Death Without Repentance

Zhu Ning and Zhu Zhanqi were not familiar with each other, but they had heard of his bad behavior in the past, and they couldn't help but frown when they heard these words. She didn't care about the charges that the other party had put on her head, she glanced at him and said coldly: "If I have the ability to make waves, I won't be able to stay in peace for so many years." King Shouguang wants to take advantage of this matter to make a fuss to you, but I just want to remind you that you are the emperor's grandson, and it is always your father who is sheltered from the wind and rain in front of you. If you have time to inquire about these idle matters of me, you might as well think about your father's intention of sending you to Beijing. Your father is not a person who protects calves like the emperor, the emperor can forgive you, but your father's attitude is not so easy to change. ”

Leaving these words, Zhu Ning turned around and gave an order, and went straight into the palace with the two maids. Zhu Zhanqi didn't expect Zhu Ning's attitude to be so blunt, and he was stunned there, and after a while, his face turned pale. He clenched his whip at once, and was about to lose his temper when he heard a call from the attendant waiting there on the other end.

"Your Highness!"

Although he inherited his father Zhu Gaoxu's irritable and irritable temperament, Zhu Zhanqi was imprisoned for more than two years after all, and suddenly came to his senses. Turning his head to look at the expressionless guards on duty at the Donghua Gate, he snorted hatefully, then turned back and walked towards his retinue, jumped on his horse and galloped away. All the way back to the Hanwang Mansion, he walked in angrily after entering the door, until he entered his small study, he immediately went straight to the desk, and swept all those pen, ink, paper and inkstones to the ground with a slap.

"What kind of person does she think she is, relying on the favor of the emperor's grandfather, she dares to despise me like this!"

At this time, the man who followed behind closed the door and immediately asked, "Your Highness, what did Lord Chen Liu say?" ”

Zhu Zhan turned around and stared at the man fiercely for a while, then said coldly: "You don't have to worry about this matter!" Fang Rui, you just need to do your part, don't interfere in everything! Although the eldest brother trusts you, he is him and I am, and he is dead! Go down, let me be alone for a while, and don't get in the way in front of me all the time! ”

Hearing this, Fang Rui couldn't help but feel annoyed in his heart, however, although Zhu Zhanqi was now better than back then, he was still not as gentle and elegant as Zhu Zhantan. Thinking of the son who died young, he felt more and more that there was no way to compare these two, and he endured and endured before withdrawing without saying a word.

Before Zhu Zhantan died, he used the authority of the prince to seek him the title of the head of honor and guard of the Han Palace, so he was the highest-ranking among the entourage. But even if he is no longer the civilian white body of the past, he does not have the pleasure of getting ahead at all. King Han is blindly irritable and murderous, and Zhu Zhanqi is not a temperament that can bend and stretch and endure, if it continues like this, don't say anything about getting ahead, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to protect myself one day. Although he didn't hear Zhu Ning's words clearly at that time, he could guess it.

After all, the dead Zhu Zhantan is the son canonized by the Son of Heaven, and the King of Han is not bad to him, but Zhu Zhanqi is the most hated son of the King of Han. Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if the King of Han can replace the crown prince and ascend the throne as the emperor, how much hope does Zhu Zhanqi have to enter the East Palace? Now, even if he is sorry for the dying entrustment of the prince, he has to try to see if he can win the favor of King Han, after all, his identity is still somewhat useful. Thinking of this, his face gradually softened, and he strode towards his room.

However, when he opened the door, he was surprised to see that there was suddenly another person in the room that should have been empty. The moment he saw the man's face, he swallowed back the exclamation that came to his lips, hurriedly stepped over the threshold, and closed the door with his backhand. Before he could open his mouth to question, the person on the other side threw out a fluttering word.

"Quietly forced a military department to death, you are really a good means! Then again, if I'm not mistaken, Fang Bin seems to be your distant uncle, and you have to do it if you fall. ”

"Don ...... You don't want to talk nonsense...... What does Fang Bin's death have to do with me? ”

"I'm just reminding you, don't think that everyone in this world is stupid! This has nothing to do with me, so I don't bother to care. Before, the matter between me and Zhu Zhantan was in the middle of the contact, so I just want to remind you, don't underestimate Zhu Zhanqi, did he take you with him when he went to see Princess Yongping? Did you take you with you when I went to see King Anyang? I only warn you, don't tell Zhu Zhanqi about me, and don't try to restrain me! ”

Although he did not say anything about the death of Fang Binbin at the court meeting, Zhu Di still remembered his merits in his heart after all, so he naturally had no heart to deal with state affairs. However, now, after all, the Northern Expedition is imminent, he has to fight his spirits, but when he saw the stacks of old Gao sent by Yang Shiqi, he suddenly felt even more irritable, and only casually flipped through the top few books and instructed Yang Shiqi to draw up a reply as appropriate, and when the time came, he checked them one by one, and then got up and left the main hall.

As soon as he walked out of the Qianqing Gate, he saw the empty sky behind the high wall in front of him, and he couldn't help frowning. However, even if he wanted to rebuild these three halls immediately, he knew that the household department would never allocate such a sum, so he could only frown. Thinking of Guo Zi, the head of the household department, who was honest and fearful of reporting the expenses of the household department before, he felt more and more that everything was not going well this year, and he actually let out a heavy cold snort. The eunuchs serving on the left and right didn't know why the emperor was angry, and they were all trembling.

Zhang Qian, who caught up from behind, saw Zhu Di, who was wearing a rose purple jacquard longevity silk robe, standing there motionless, and the people around him were like wooden stakes, and his heart suddenly felt a little strange, and then he remembered what happened just now. Although he accepted such a gift for the time being last night, he naturally wouldn't accept such a hot potato so easily, so he just sent the thing to Zhu Zhanji, and said that he would give it to the emperor's grandson to play, and there was such a little rumor in his words. Putting aside this matter, he also carried Zhang Yue's Chen to come here, who knew that he happened to see the emperor.

"Why is the emperor standing in the wind?"

Hearing such a reminder, Zhu Di came back to his senses, and immediately felt that there was something heavy on his shoulders. Finding that it was a sable fur tree, and seeing Zhang Qian saluting from behind, he understood, and immediately smiled happily and took a step forward to continue walking. Instructed the others to retreat farther away, and he said to Zhang Qian behind him with emotion: "The Qianqing Palace is behind the three major halls, and what I see when I go out every day is this empty place, which really makes me panic!" ”

If it was another little eunuch who only knew how to welcome him, he might have jokingly said at this time that he would let the Ministry of Industry send craftsmen to rebuild it, but as long as the old man who has been in the palace for decades understands the significance of the Fengtian Palace. Therefore, Zhang Qian thought about it again and again, and finally sighed with him: "Don't say it's the emperor, it's just that the ministers see that only the cornerstone of white marble is left in these three major halls, and this is not a taste in their hearts." The emperor is determined to be the world, and now that the military affairs are urgent, he naturally can't think about rebuilding the palace. ”

Such a sentence of comfort undoubtedly spoke to Zhu Di's heart. Although he said that he was a person who would not repent when he recognized a direction, but after the capital was moved, the three major halls were completed, and in a blink of an eye, thunder and fire came, which was still a huge blow to him. At this moment, he didn't stop, but nodded slightly.

"You can still see it. Even if the three major halls can't be built, the children and grandchildren can always build them, and there is no need to rush for a while. Look at the wolf ambitions of Arutai, if there is no me in the north, they will go south step by step, and the world will be disrupted by them sooner or later! Only by fighting, only when I, the Son of Heaven, personally go into battle to fight them, will they know that they are in pain, that they are afraid, and that they will know how to hide...... Why did I break my promise and not let Duoyan Sanwei go south to Daningwei? Isn't it because they are also wolves, and they are insatiable in ambition? The household gritted its teeth and squeezed out the military spending, and the north side could be stopped for several years......"

Seeing that the emperor was getting more and more excited and talking more and more, Zhang Qian, who wanted to advise two sentences, gradually dispelled his thoughts, and the cabinet and the six Shangshu took turns to fight and failed to pull back the emperor's carriage, so he didn't want to add fuel to the fire in vain. Because when it came to the household, he cautiously followed the thought in that direction, and then mentioned the northern expedition to transport grain.

"Don't talk about transporting grain, I'm annoyed when I mention this, didn't Zhang Yue say shipping before? Originally, he expected to be able to use it this time, but he opened his mouth and said that he couldn't count on it in the short term...... Followed by those four damn ......" Zhu Di thought of the four great Shangshu, and his anger came up, but as soon as he thought of Fang Bin hanging himself in panic, half of the rising anger dissipated, and then he changed his words, and said angrily, "You have to go to Zhang's house when you are free, and ask Zhang Yue what's going on, in the past, he couldn't convince me to write a note one after another, and this time he actually stopped like this?" ”

Zhang Qian was originally worried that the emperor would be furious because of this, but when he heard that Zhu Di actually took the initiative to mention this matter, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly smiled: "The emperor should also know the character of Lord Xiao Zhang, where is the person who can easily give up?" The emperor summoned him that day, and drove him away with only one question, so he wrote something immediately after he returned, but it was not easy to submit it rashly, so when the minister went to the British Mansion that day, he volunteered to take the matter. ”

"You're going to be a businessman!" Zhu Di was slightly stunned, snorted lightly and stretched out his hand, "Even if he still entrusts the right person, take it out for me to see!" ”

"Your Majesty, but this is a windy ......"

"Don't mother-in-law, I can't blow this little wind! It's so cold outside, didn't I survive like all the soldiers? Hurry up and bring it, if I don't have the interest to go back, you just sent it over to me and I don't bother to look at it! ”

Zhang Qian, who was helpless, could only take out the thick fold from his sleeve and offer it with both hands. Seeing that Zhu Di turned straight to look at the wind, he hurriedly greeted him backwards, and several brocade-clothed guards and little eunuchs immediately gathered up, blocking the wind for the emperor from high to short. This stop is a quarter of an hour smaller, Zhu Di carefully read it one by one, while groaning, but on the other hand, he looked at the handwriting. Although this character does not look much different from Zhang Yue's characters in the past, he loves calligraphy, and Shen Du's characters don't know how many times he has seen and copied them, so even the subtle differences can be seen, and finally he commanded lightly.

"You go to the military department and ask him to come to the Qianqing Palace, and I will ask him personally."
