"Minister......" Wang Xian smiled bitterly in his heart, this is a question, I dare to say the word 'no', it is the crime of bullying the king. had no choice but to bite the bullet and say: "The minister dares to swear that every sentence he played is true, and there is no deception." ”

"Really......" Zhu Di's gaze was a little wandering, but his voice became colder and colder.

"It's true!" Wang Xian turned his heart sideways, held his head high and said: "The ministers are young and do not do more things, they are shallow in learning, and they are wrongly loved by His Majesty, and they are entrusted with important tasks, only if they do not hesitate to do anything, how can they deceive His Majesty!" ”

"Have you deceived less?!" Zhu Di suddenly became angry, raised his eyebrows and said, "I ask you, how did Zhang Chun die?" As he spoke, he took a step forward, and his voice was like a yin wind blowing from the Nine Hells, making Wang Xian's whole body cold again. This million-dollar emperor, once his eyes are gloomy, his whole body seems to be filled with red blood, ordinary people can be scared to death, and a bold man like Wang Xian is almost scared to pee his pants.

The shadow of the famous tree, Zhu Di, a butcher who kills people without blinking, pushes him out of the coffin and chops it up and feeds it to the dogs, which is as simple as drinking water. What's more, the things Wang Xian did in Shanxi were really just bullying and colluding with the subordinates inside and outside.

But fear is fear, this level has to be passed, Wang Xian bit his lip, sobered up and said: "The minister has already told him, according to the suicide note he left and the scene exploration, the minister believes that he committed suicide." ”

"Why is he going to kill himself?" Zhu Di asked coldly.

"He colluded with thieves, embezzled military rations, and caused the army to run out of food, which is really a crime that cannot be punished, and he knows that he will not escape the blame for his crimes."

"Before you interrogated him, he knew that he was guilty?"

"Shanxi officialdom is rampant with greed, and he is a political envoy who cannot escape the blame, and he may know that even if he doesn't recruit himself, this life will be over, so he has the idea of committing suicide."

"Can you completely rule out the possibility that he killed?" Zhu Di asked coldly.

"The minister can't, but the dignified political envoy yamen, the palace is heavily guarded, and the minister doesn't think that there is any kind of clever assassin who can kill him in the study without leaving a trace!" Wang Xian made a heart, pretending to be confused to the end.

"Arbitrary!" Yongle snorted, and after a while, he said coldly: "You never thought that someone forced Zhang Chun to death?" ”

"Thought!" Wang Xian said without hesitation and replied honestly.

"Who have you ever thought about?" Zhu Di's eyes flickered.

"The minister has thought about the King of Jin, the King of Han, the King of Zhao, the Governor of Jidu, and even His Royal Highness the Prince...... Wang Xian reported out a long list of names aloud, and said the people who had the ability to kill Zhang Chun, but the result was equivalent to not saying anything.

"Why don't you pursue it?" Seeing that he was going to play tricks, Yongle Zhu Di's tone was stern.

"I don't dare." Wang Xian's head fell again, and he said loudly: "There is nothing the minister can do. ”

Such a frank answer made Zhu Di stunned. Because Wang Xian's words are beyond reproach, who can ask a small military attache to do things that are beyond his ability?

"It's so powerless, you're not yet twenty years old, and it's really disappointing to say such a dull statement." Zhu Di said expressionlessly: "I originally wanted to use your young spirit to break those nasty ghosts, but you were sentenced to such a gourd case!" ”

"The ministers are not more important, they are not virtuous, and they have negative expectations," Wang Xian hurriedly kowtowed and asked: "The minister is guilty of negligence, please punish the emperor!" ”

"Negligence is also a felony." Zhu Di said coldly: "It's not like you can get over with two boards!" ”

Wang Xian kowtowed deeply, pulling out the cold in his heart, and secretly said obediently, it seems that the lightest is also a home farming......

"Are you wronged?" Seeing that he was scared, Zhu Di walked up to him with a playful taste in his voice.

"Wechen doesn't dare."

"If you don't dare, then you're still wronged. But that's right, you saved the grandson, solved the big case, and went down to Guangling, all of which were great achievements, and if you were on someone else, you would have been crowned an earl a long time ago. Zhu Di said: "But you are now a calm man from the fourth grade, and you have to be questioned by me, of course you will feel particularly wronged." ”

"Thunder, rain and dew, all are Jun'en." Wang Xian suddenly raised his head and said loudly: "How the emperor deals with the ministers, he has the emperor's truth, and the ministers are happy to accept it!" ”

"This is like a human saying......" Zhu Di's cold face actually bloomed with a smile, he finally walked away from Wang Xian's eyes, looking at the portrait of Zhenwu on the wall stepping on a turtle and holding a snake, Wang Xian peeked and found that the Zhenwu Emperor on the portrait was also a black-faced man...... It is eight points similar to Emperor Yongle. I can't help but be surprised, I rub it, which kind of sycophancy is this, it's so shameless! Take a closer look, in the lower left corner of the portrait, it is written 'Disciple Sun Biyun respectfully records the portrait of Emperor Zhenwu.' ’

'Sun Biyun, isn't it Grandpa Xianyun and Lingxiao? Wang Xian suddenly realized, no wonder the old Taoist priest became the first project contractor of the Ming Dynasty, and it turned out that there was this fairy-level sycophant kung fu.

"What are you looking at?" Zhu Di turned his head sideways, and when he saw Wang Xian looking at the painting, he couldn't help frowning slightly, even Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaochu were in front of him, and they didn't dare to breathe, but this kid dared to look around!

"The minister is looking at the portrait of the Emperor Zhenwu, and I often hear people say that my emperor is the reincarnation of the Emperor Zhenwu, and it is true when I see it today!" Seeing that you should be fine. Wang Xian gradually overcame the fear he had when he first met the emperor and returned to his normal level.

"Hmph, you know a." Zhu Di was quite useful, but he snorted coldly on his face: "Do you know why I am not rewarded for my merits?" ”

"I don't know." Wang Xian shook his head and said blankly.

"Are you smart or confused?" Zhu Di asked: "How do you feel about your trip to Shanxi?" ”

"The minister's biggest feeling is that it is difficult to be a man and even more difficult to be an official, and the minister's Taoism is far from enough!" Wang Xian said loudly.

"Is it difficult to be a man, but it is difficult to be a minister? Actually, it's not that hard. It is difficult not to be a villain, but also to be a good official and a loyal minister. Zhu Di uncharacteristically put his heart in his heart and said: "The prince has the grace of knowing you, the grandson and you and brotherhood, when they are in turmoil, you are unwilling to betray your gratitude and run for them, this is not to be a villain, I understand you." As he spoke, his face sank, and his voice was cold: "But don't forget, you are the official of my Ming Dynasty, not the official of the prince, nor the official of the grandson!" My court, as long as my loyal ministers, don't want those who eat the king's fortune, but are loyal to others! ”

Zhu Di's words were not to bluff Wang Xian, but to be really angry. Because he thought that Wang Xian was loyal to the crown prince, not to him, the emperor. Thinking of a courtier leading his own money, but being loyal to others, Zhu Di was extremely indignant. The better Wang Xian performed, the more angry he became. This is also the reason why he has been suppressing Wang Xian.

Emperor Yongle's voice echoed in the hall, shaking Wang Xian's eardrums, and Wang Xian's face was so shocked that his face was pale. As soon as he praised the emperor for wanting to capture the old man, Zhu Di immediately let him understand it. If Fang Cai had been under high pressure, he would still be able to withstand it, but Zhu Di deliberately let him see hope, thinking that he could pass the test this time, but he suddenly took out a killer weapon, which caught Wang Xian off guard, burst into tears, and completely collapsed his heart.

The emperor took advantage of the victory to pursue, and his anger sank into the dantian, and his voice was like Hong Zhong and said: "I will ask you again who is behind Zhang Chun!" ”

Wang Xian suddenly raised his head and replied passionately: "Your Majesty, the ministers have the sincerity of their hearts and souls!"

Zhu Di stared at him tightly, spit out a word: "Say!"

"The emperor is right, the prince has the grace of knowing me, the grandson has brotherhood with me, the minister is a grass people, and he can get the favor of the two highnesses, and he will naturally be repaid!" Wang Xian said with a stirring face.

"Okay, he's a good guy." Zhu Di nodded and praised expressionlessly.

"But before the minister met the grandson, he was already a courtier of the Ming Dynasty! Since I was a child, in front of the eight-character wall in front of the county government, I heard the county adults preach the truth of loyalty and patriotism, and my father often heard the face order, so that I should be loyal to the emperor! The only king in the minister's heart is the emperor! Wang Xian said with tears streaming down his face.

"Two lips touch, whatever you want." Zhu Di said coldly: "Are you a child who can be coaxed around?" ”

"The minister is by no means coaxing the emperor, the minister has evidence!" Wang Xian said loudly.

"What evidence?" Zhu Di was stunned.

"Please ask the emperor to forgive the ministers for being rude." Wang Xiandao.

"Yes." Zhu Di nodded, he didn't know that there was evidence for this thing, and he was really a little curious.

Wang Xian untied his belt and unbuttoned his official robe, so ashamed that the palace maids turned their heads sideways, and the eunuchs also secretly laughed, could it be that this kid wants to jump a **** for the emperor to show his loyalty?

In the emperor's surprised gaze, Wang Xian showed his sturdy upper body, and then turned around, only to see two words the size of a fist pierced on his back - 'Zhongjun'!

When the emperor saw it, his eyes widened at first, and then he couldn't help but sneer, and scolded: "Put on your clothes quickly, whoever gave you the words of the tattoo, crooked, really ugly." ”

"My father doesn't read much, but his loyalty is not lagging behind!" Wang Xian hurriedly put on his official uniform again, and said with a straight face. I sighed secretly in my heart, sure enough, Jiang is still old and spicy, last night my father wanted to tattoo himself, I still don't want to use it a hundred times, I can't think of using it the next day, I really can't accept it...... It's just that you know that you have presbyopia, can you go to the street and ask a master to stab you beautifully!.

As soon as Wang Xian's words came out, the image of an old man who had never read any books, but was loyal, suddenly appeared in front of Zhu Di's eyes. Although this doesn't mean anything, it greatly changes the emperor's impression of Wang Xian...... After all, this is still an era of pedigree, and people believe that dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and the sons of mice will make holes.

"Didn't you disappoint your father?" Zhu Di looked at Wang Xian playfully.

"No matter how foolish the minister is, he knows that the kindness of the prince and grandson to the minister is private. Loyalty to the emperor is the duke! The minister said that it is difficult to be a man and an official, but in fact, he is saying that it is really difficult to distinguish between public and private. But how dare the minister abolish the public for personal reasons?! Wang Xian saw that his father's trick worked, and was greatly excited.

"You said you never abandoned your business for personal reasons?" Zhu Di was suddenly displeased and said: "Aren't the things you did in Shanxi to protect the prince!" ”
