However, this matter caused an uproar in Jingshi, after all, according to the current status of Ming Zhongxin, it is really unprecedented to entertain two little people!

Moreover, these two people also participated in the framing of Ming Zhongxin, and they knew in their hearts that these two people would inevitably be interrogated at this banquet to find out who was behind the scenes, but everyone was deeply suspicious, could they find out?

Then, all the powerful people who are qualified to be invited are displeased, you will feast on us, but invite these two bedbugs, what is this to do? Are we on a notch with them?

So, they secretly made a decision in their hearts.

However, the third person was unexpected, and the third invitation was sent to the hands of Yin Zhangji of Shuntian Mansion.

Zhang Ji received the invitation, and he was also very surprised, but then his mind turned and he understood the intention of Ming Zhongxin, this is to let himself be a witness! You must know that although Wang Xiaoer and Zhang Zhutou were in battle that day, but after all, it also made him doubtful, after all, no matter how you think about it, it is impossible for the two of them to fight back, although he has some doubts in his heart, but he understands the situation in Beijing, and he naturally has an account in his heart, this time he must have framed Ming Zhongxin, so he did not investigate deeply.

But in private, he was very suspicious of why Wang Xiaoer and Zhang Zhutou wanted to talk back, and besides, the two were still framing one second, but they immediately turned back the next second, which was too fast, and he was deeply puzzled.

This time, Ming Zhongxin invited him to testify, perhaps, he will be able to understand the reason this time! Therefore, he gladly accepted.

In the midst of all the attention, the fourth request was sent.

Everyone was taken aback again, just because this fourth invitation was actually Zhu Chenhao, the king of Ning, who was invited to the banquet.

In the Ming Dynasty, the Ning clan attacked the king of Ningning: Zhu Quan, the king of Ningxian, Zhu Dianpei, the king of Ningjing, Zhu Jinjun, the king of Ningkang, and Zhu Chenhao.

Zhu Chenhao, the fourth-generation heir of Zhu Quan, King of Ning, Ming Dynasty, the fifth grandson of Zhu Yuanzhang, the fifth grandson of Zhu Yuanzhang, King of Ningkang, was born in Nanchang, Jiangxi Province, and was crowned King of Gao. Because King Ningkang had no sons-in-law, he attacked King Ning in the twelfth year of Hongzhi (1499).

Ming Zhongxin and he had no intersection at all, although at that time Ming Zhongxin went to Yunnan for disaster relief, passing through Jiangxi Province, but did not enter Jiangxi Province at all, detoured to Sichuan and went to Yunnan, therefore, they absolutely never met, which is recognized by everyone.

But this time, why did Ming Zhongxin invite him? Although the list was drawn up by Mr. Lu, everyone knows that without Ming Zhongxin's opinion, Lu Mingyuan would never have invited him.

This makes everyone really confused.

However, some of the big forces fell into an eerie silence, and quickly summoned their respective advisers and staff to discuss secretly.

And Zhu Chenhao, the king of Ning, was even more surprised, looking at the invitation on the table in front of him, his eyes were dull, as if he was a little overwhelmed.

"Lord Wang! Rajah! A middle-aged scribe next to him shouted in a deep voice.

Yes! Zhu Chenhao, the king of Ning, came back to his senses and looked at the middle-aged scribe.

"Lord Wang, this Ming Zhongxin invites you this time, but I'm afraid that my intentions are not pure!" The middle-aged scribe said slowly.

"Impure intentions?" Ning Wang Zhu Chenhao's eyes froze.

"Yes, we didn't have any intersection with the Ming family before, even if Ming Zhongxin stirred up trouble in Beijing and dabbled in all walks of life, but he never had a conflict with us, and he had no direct contact at all, why did he send you a request at this sensitive time, I'm afraid that this guy has bad intentions!" The middle-aged Wenyi analyzed with a deep gaze.

"No! Since we don't have anything to do with him, why should he have bad intentions? Zhu Chenhao was extremely puzzled and shook his head.

"I don't know, but I think I'm right!" The middle-aged scribe also shook his head with a wry smile.

"You say, could it be that the matter was revealed?" Suddenly, Zhu Chenhao, the king of Ning, stared at the middle-aged scribe.

"Probably not! Besides, we should have clean hands and tails, and there are absolutely no mistakes! Even the parties don't know about the relationship with us! The middle-aged scribe shook his head in denial.

"Could it be that our affairs in southern Xinjiang have been exposed?" Ning Wang Zhu Chenhao frowned and looked at the middle-aged scribe suspiciously.

"That's even more unlikely!" The middle-aged scribe immediately denied it, "For a long time, I have been the only one who has come forward in the affairs of Southern Xinjiang, but you have never come forward!" Even if he is a fairy, he can't figure it out! ”

"Since it's not, that's not, what does he mean by that?" Ning Wang Zhu Chenhao breathed a sigh of relief, his face relaxed, but he was still puzzled.

"Perhaps, it was Lu Mingyuan who had an old relationship with the old prince back then, and wanted to see you this time?" The middle-aged scribe looked puzzled and guessed.

"Ahh Zhu Chenhao, the king of Ning, suddenly clapped his hands, his eyes brightened, "I think back then, our father and Lu Mingyuan were also old acquaintances, and it is really possible that this is the reason!" ”

The middle-aged scribe's eyes lit up, but then he regained his gloom, shook his head and sighed, "Even if they are old acquaintances, I heard that Lu Mingyuan and the old prince were also general friends back then, and they didn't have any deep friendships!" ”

"By the way, didn't you say before that the reason why Ming Zhongxin held this banquet may be to show his muscles to the major forces in Beijing, or to set up friendships to protect one or two? Perhaps, this time I want to take advantage of the general trend of this king! Ning Wang Zhu Chenhao's eyes flashed.

The middle-aged scribe glanced at Zhu Chenhao, the king of Ning, with a smile, and sighed in his heart, Lord Wang, what can you borrow now? It's just a king of Fan, and even the close guards only have more than one soldier, can anyone commit it?

Of course, although he thought so in his heart, he did not dare to say it on the surface. Instead, he echoed, "Lord Wang Mingming, I think that Ming Zhongxin is getting more and more difficult in Beijing this time, presumably he wants to make some allies through Lu Mingyuan and solve the urgent need!" ”

"Not bad, not bad, well-reasoned, justified!" Zhu Chenhao, the king of Ning, changed his complexion greatly, and his face was full of joy, "That Ming Zhongxin is also a generation of heroes, otherwise it will set off such a storm in Yunnan, it is worth making friends with us, if we can fight for it, maybe it will be of great help to our future affairs, go, we must go!" ”

The middle-aged scribe smiled bitterly, our King Ning really sees the wind and rain! We are now discussing the intention of inviting us from Ming Zhongxin, how can you think of the future now! Alas, I really don't know if it's right or wrong for me to choose to assist this one!

"What do you think?" Ning Wang Zhu Chenhao asked happily.

"It's good to take a trip!" What can the middle-aged scribe do, he can only nod and agree.

"Prepare a generous gift, we must pay attention to it, and be sure to envelop this Ming Zhongxin!" Zhu Chenhao, the king of Ning, was in high spirits and commanded.

The middle-aged scribe sighed in his heart, he knew that the prince's mentality, he was thirsty for talent, whether it was in Yunnan or in Beijing, before Ming Zhongxin showed a talent and wisdom that was different from ordinary people, especially after Zhu Chenhao, the king of Ning, came to Beijing, he kept hearing the news of Ming Zhongxin, and even more, Emperor Hongzhi actually wanted to accompany the prince as a prince to accompany him to grow up, which is to cultivate Ming Zhongxin as a virtuous minister around the future prince! What an importance! It further proves the value of CITIC.

Moreover, judging from his talents, wisdom, connections, and methods, this guy is really a demon! Before, because he didn't know, he ignored Ming Zhongxin and regarded him as an ordinary teenager, but after a series of hearings and insights, I found out that this Ming Zhongxin is really a talent! Especially for us King Ning.

If it can really be entrapped, it can be said to be of great help to our future affairs, and it can even be said to increase the chances of winning by at least 30%. Before, it was because King Ning came to the north with a plan this time, and he had no leisure time to carry it out. But now it's different, Ming Zhongxin actually issued an invitation to invite the government, this is a godsend! How could King Ning not be tempted?!

However, is Ming Zhongxin so easy to envelop?

Judging from his series of actions alone, it can be seen that this is a arrogant and uninhibited person, who wants to submit to him, and he really can't do it without a little skill!

Try it too! Maybe it's done! The middle-aged scribe said secretly in his heart.

Raising his eyes, he saw that Zhu Chenhao, the king of Ning, was excited, muttering to himself there, with a look of intoxication, obviously, he had put himself in the situation of Ming Zhongxin. As for the danger of this trip, he has already put it aside!

The middle-aged scribe couldn't help but sigh lightly and shook his head.

"What? He actually invited King Ning? Hongji's eyes were full of disbelief, and he looked at Chen Zhun and asked for confirmation.

Chen Zhun smiled bitterly in his heart, but on his face he respectfully bowed his hand and replied, "Returning to Your Majesty, the third invitation is issued to King Ning!" ”

After receiving the confirmation, Hongzhi calmed down instead, "You mean, the third request is King Ning, and the first and second requests are the people who want to frame Ming Zhongxin?" ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!" Chen Zhun bowed.

Hongji rolled his eyes, this sycophant is really untechnical, this is a fact, what is holy or not.

Of course, he won't delve into this matter, "Could it be that Ming Zhongxin wants to show everyone that the person who framed Ming Zhongxin is Zhu Chenhao, the king of Ning?" ”

Chen Zhun was stunned for a moment and raised his eyes to look at Hongji.

"What do you think?" Koji continued to ask.

"Your Majesty, this matter is highly likely." Chen Zhun nodded in response.

"Alright, stop slapping! I want the truth, not sycophants! Hongji looked at him angrily.

"This?" Chen Zhun was embarrassed for a while, we just followed your words, why are we so unwelcome? Okay, let's tell the truth, "Chen thinks that although this matter is possible, it is also up for discussion, after all, Wang Xiaoer, Zhang Zhutou and Ning Wang are people who have nothing to do with each other, and the status is so disparity, the minister has analyzed the background of the two, although he can't find the real mastermind behind it, but there are also some clues, as long as he investigates, he will definitely be able to find out!" But to say that it is really impossible to associate King Ning with them! ”

Going around in circles to deny my speculation, it's really an old fritter! Hongzhi slandered in his heart, but he didn't dig deeper, after all, his speculation, he also felt unlikely, King Ning and Ming Zhongxin had no grudges, why frame him, this is not a motive at all! What's more, King Ning has just returned to Beijing, even if he wants to have a grudge, it is impossible! On the contrary, if it shows that CITIC is kind to King Ning, it is still possible!

After all, the first person to discover the rebellion in southern Xinjiang was Ming Zhongxin, and then Nanjing sent troops to quell the rebellion, and then rescued King Ning.

Hongji nodded and continued to look at Chen Zhun, waiting for his guess to come out.

The minister believes that this time Ming Zhongxin may really want to use his power to gain a foothold in Beijing. He's just a little scared! I'm afraid that this banquet also wants to encircle some forces, and by the way, in the name of Mr. Lu, let himself become the top force in Beijing. Of course, this is the minister's speculation! After Chen Zhun finished speaking, he bowed down and asked for advice.

Hongji nodded, somewhat agreeing, but still frowning, obviously, not very satisfied with this guess.

Chen Zhun's heart moved, and he added, "Of course, Ming Zhongxin's deep meaning is definitely more than this, there must be intentions that the minister can't understand, it depends on how Mr. Lu arranges it!" ”

Mr. Lu? At the mention of Lu Mingyuan, Hongzhi's eyes shrank and he took a deep breath, sure enough, just like at the beginning, I still can't grasp Mr. Lu's deep meaning!

He had already thought in his heart that this art appreciation must have been planned by Mr. Lu behind his back, and Ming Zhongxin was just doing it according to Mr. Lu's wishes.

But after all these years, I still can't guess Mr. Lu's intentions, which is really a blow!

"Okay, no matter what Ming Zhongxin's intentions are, you must always be vigilant and report the movements of the Ming family at any time, and there must be no mistakes!" Hongji's face sank, and he commanded in a deep voice.

"No!" Chen Zhun naturally promised something, he naturally knew that His Majesty was a little depressed again, these days, as long as he mentioned the Ming Mansion and Mr. Lu, His Majesty would be moody, and he naturally didn't dare to be verbose!

"King Naning's movements must also be grasped at any time, and the details of their contact must be reported in every detail!" Hongji's eyes flashed, and he continued to command.

"No!" Chen Zhun felt a pang in his heart, he naturally knew that this was the point, after all, the willingness of the King of Fan to return to Beijing this time was very displeasing to His Majesty, and His Majesty must also keep abreast of their movements, not to mention that King Ning wanted to talk to the demon of Ming Zhongxin this time, including Mr. Lu, which must be prevented! Everybody gets it!

"Have you seen any movement from these King Fan lately?" Hongzhi looked at Chen Zhun and asked.

"Spies are all over the place, watching the king of Fan, they are all in peace, and there is nothing unusual! However, Chen Zhun hesitated a little.

"Something to say!" When Hongji saw it, he frowned and said in a deep voice.

"Back to Your Majesty, just recently, for some reason, people in the palace of King Naning died violently from time to time, and the bodies of the personnel were quickly disposed of, but the cause of death was a mystery, but the subordinate spies could not find out the reason!" Chen Zhun bowed back and said.
