"Wait for the ministers to meet His Royal Highness the Prince!"

Everyone knelt down in the direction of the gate, and the fat figure of the prince appeared in front of everyone.

"Let's all be flat." Zhu Gaochi, with the support of Zhu Zhanjun, crossed the high threshold of the Prince's Mansion with difficulty and came to the gate.

"Your Highness." The courtiers got up one after another and watched as the prince walked in front of Wang Xian.

"Your Highness......" Wang Xian called in a low voice.

Zhu Gaochi patted Wang Xian's shoulder, and said apologetically with an apologetic look in his eyes: "It's hard for you to shelter from the wind and rain for loneliness......"

"Your Highness......" Although Wang Xian was annoyed, he still choked up and couldn't speak in order to avoid feeling warm in his heart.

"Still, let Lone handle it herself." Zhu Gaochi shook Wang Xian's hand vigorously: "Cowering back, what kind of gentleman is it." ”

Wang Xian knew that Zhu Gaochi was the kind of person who hid needles in his face, looking cowardly, but in fact he was arrogant. Hearing this, he had no choice but to nod yes.

"Remove the fence." Zhu Gaochi looked at the barbed wooden fence and said with a smile: "They are all scholars who are powerless, so they don't need it." ”

Wang Xian waved his hand, and his Jinyi guards hurriedly removed the barricades, and the front of the prince's mansion returned to normal.

"What's the matter with you looking for Lone?" Only then did the prince cast an inquiring glance at the civil officials.

"Your Highness!" All the civil officials knelt in front of the prince and said loudly together: "The ministers kneel down and ask His Highness to be the master, and lead us to petition the emperor to dispel the intention of moving the capital!" ”

"yes!" Ji Benqing, who was the leader, then explained loudly: "I'm not waiting for my own selfish interests! It's for the ancestors' rivers and mountains, and the generations of the Ming Dynasty! ”

"Yes, Your Highness!" All the civil officials kowtowed together, bursting into tears: "The Jingshi must not move!" "This is the act of destroying the country!" "The ministers are willing to take their lives, and they must also protect the Jingshi!"

"Hurry up, everyone, we have something to say." Zhu Gaochi looked at the situation where the mourning was everywhere, and his head was as big as a fight.

"If Your Highness doesn't agree, we won't be able to die!" As expected, the officials really showed the housekeeping skills of crying, making trouble, and hanging themselves.

"Then you can kneel to death......" Erhei and the others watched coldly and muttered indignantly. In exchange for Wang Xian's stern gaze, everyone had to keep their mouths shut and be honest...... Watching a play......

"Hey," the prince could only let them kneel, and said helplessly: "The emperor has no intention of moving the capital, I don't know where you heard the rumors?!" ”

"How could it be a rumor!" The officials allowed the prince to pass the test vaguely, and asked loudly: "Why did His Royal Highness collide with the emperor in the New Year!" "The emperor is above, His Royal Highness dares to swear, didn't the emperor mention the matter of moving the capital to you?!"

"This ......" the prince sighed and said, "I did say it, but it was just a private chat between father and son, and it was never mentioned again. ”

"This ......" Seeing that the crown prince denied it, the officials couldn't help but be discouraged, but after all, there were many people, and someone immediately said in a loud voice: "Your Highness, I heard that the emperor summoned you to the north, dare to ask if there is such a thing?" ”

"Yes......" Zhu Gaochi, as a prince, naturally couldn't be as stubborn as Wang Xian, so he had to nod with difficulty.

"Now that the emperor is in Beijing, and the crown prince is also going north, who will supervise the country in the capital?!" The officials asked angrily: "Or do you no longer have to care about this Jingshi?!" ”

"This ......" Zhu Gaochi was speechless when questioned.

"Your Highness! The emperor's intention to move the capital is already clear! Ji Benqing's eyes were red, and he roared like a nervous voice: "If you still want to protect my Ming Jingshi!" You can only stand up now! Once you go to Beijing, everything will be over! ”

......Although Zhu Gaochi came out after being fully prepared, he was still frantically forced by the ministers, making him sweat profusely, and he stammered: "You can't do that." ”

"Why!" The faces of the hundred officials could not hide their disappointment, but they were more untamed, "Could it be that His Royal Highness ignored the ancestor Jiangshang in order to please the emperor?!" ”

"No, Lone is now separated from his father by thousands of mountains and rivers, and he dares to lead you to chase the wind and catch shadows and jointly write a letter, only to see the suspicion of the monarch's father, and make things completely out of control!" Zhu Gaochi sighed and tried to persuade them: "This matter is big, you can let me think about it for a few days, okay?" ”

Wang Xian understood, and the prince didn't have any good ideas, so he just dragged on for a day......

Hearing the prince say this, many Wenchen looked relaxed, and they wanted to nod in agreement. But there are some people who are partial, and I don't know if it's a dead brain or ulterior motives, so he shouted loudly: "Your Highness, just think about it!" It's just that if you want to do it for a day, we'll kneel for a day! If you want to do it for ten days, we will kneel for ten days! ”

"That's it! What a pity to die! If you don't agree, we'll kneel here! Immediately, many people responded loudly, and no one dared to let go at all, and they all looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince with sad and angry faces......

"Don't go too far!" Feeling that his father's hand was shaking violently, Zhu Zhanjun finally couldn't help but accuse loudly: "So persecuting the prince!" Do you still look like a retainer?! ”

"The second son's words are wrong!" It was easy for the officials to take the lead, but how could they be suppressed by his yellow-mouthed child, and he said in a heartfelt manner: "The people are the most important, the society is secondary, and the monarch is light!" ”

"If you want to go to the book, just go to the book?!" Zhu Zhanjun was able to parry, and he was in a mess, "Why do you have to pull my father!" ”

"Your Highness is still young, of course you don't understand!" The ministers became more and more proud: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, as the prince, has an unshirkable responsibility!" ”

"......" Zhu Zhanjun didn't know what to do, and suddenly felt that the weight on his hand was much heavier, so he came back to his senses and looked at his father - but saw Zhu Gaochi's face beads of sweat rolling, his face was like white paper, and a pair of eyes were scattered!

"Father!" Zhu Zhanjun screamed, and Zhu Gaochi fell softly into his arms in response, and he actually fainted......

"Your Highness!" "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" Baiguan was also stunned, and hurriedly got up and stepped forward, wanting to check on the prince's situation.

"Stop them!" Wang Xian, who was watching coldly from the sidelines, immediately changed into a murderous face, and the brocade guards surged up like a tidal wave, blocking the civil officials seven feet in front of the prince!

"Get out of the way!" The civil officials shouted and pushed the brocade guard: "We want to see Your Highness!" ”

"Get out of here!" The sound of explosion and thunder burst out of Zhu Zhanjun's throat, and everyone was stunned. I saw Zhu Zhanjun's eyes blood-red and his face full of hatred, and he said word by word: "Are you going to force my father to death?!" ”

"This ......" The young man's words full of grief and indignation were like a basin of cold water, extinguishing the manic fire in the hearts of civil officials. Everyone was silent, standing there bewildered......

Watching Wang Xian and Zhu Zhanjun put the prince into the mansion, the door of the mansion slowly closed, and the civil officials were discouraged, they never expected that the good situation would become this situation in a blink of an eye......

"Why don't you get out of here?!" Erhei and the others are accustomed to seeing the wind and the rudder, and when they see that the civil officials have no masters, they don't know what to do. One by one, the fierce gods pushed the civil officials out. The civil officials couldn't stand anymore now, and pushed out by the brocade guards...... Even the hardest guys know that it's useless to stay in the current situation, so it's better to leave it at once and make a comeback in the future.

Once the civil officials retreated, they were driven by the Jinyi guards, and after a while, they all left the front of the prince's mansion. In the square, it finally quieted down, only the flattened black yarn on the ground and the folding fan could prove that a ......farce had just happened here.

In the prince's bedroom, after hearing the news, the imperial doctor who came to check on the prince said that there was no big problem, but he was in a hurry for a while, and he would be cured in a few days, and everyone was relieved.

The imperial physician prescribed another prescription for recuperation, and then withdrew. There were only three people left in the palace, the crown princess, Zhu Zhanjun, and Wang Xian, Wang Xian comforted the princess with two words, and was about to retreat, when he suddenly saw the prince open his eyes.

"Father, you're awake!" Zhu Zhanjun also found out, and threw himself on the side of the bed and cried with joy. The crown princess Zhang also wiped her tears from the side and said: "It's too worrying about people." ”

"You go out first, I have something to say to Zhongde." The prince looked at his wife and children apologetically, leaving only Wang Xian.

When the crown princess and Zhu Zhanjun retreated, the prince showed self-deprecation and a wry smile on his face, and Wang Xian also had a wry smile.

"Hey, in the end, I'll have to use your trick." The prince sighed helplessly, he really had no choice but to pretend to be faint and pass the test.

"Your Highness's method is much more thoughtful than being a minister, and no one will suspect that you are pretending to be now." Wang Xian smiled and said, "You can recuperate with peace of mind." ”

"Actually," the prince sighed again, "Lone wanted to persuade them to go back, but he ...... They don't listen at all. ”

"Hey." Of course, Wang Xian would not say, 'I thought of it earlier', and said with a smile: "Now it is already a very good result, it is harmless to His Highness, and it is not harmless to the government." ”

"Sort of...... Zhu Gaochi sighed again, and the monarch was silent for a while before he heard the prince ask, "Are they still outside?" ”

"It's gone." Wang Xian smiled mockingly: "I'm worried that His Highness really has three longs and two shorts, and he can't eat by himself and walk around." ”

"It's okay to disperse...... Zhu Gaochi looked at Wang Xian tiredly and said, "How long can we delay?" ”

"It depends on His Highness's condition." Wang Xian smiled slyly: "The minister thinks that it is reasonable for the illness to improve until autumn. ”

"It takes that long?!" Zhu Gaochi couldn't help but gasp: "Everyone knows that Gu is pretending to be sick......

"There's no way around it." Now it was Wang Xian's turn to sigh, and he smiled bitterly: "Only in this way can the emperor and all the officials get by......

"Hey, that's all it takes...... Zhu Gaochi sighed and commanded softly, "When will we leave?" ”

"Autumn ......," Wang Xian replied softly.

"Just know ......" Zhu Gaochi saw that what he expected was not bad, and his expression became more and more cowardly: "You are also tired, go back and rest early." ”

"Yes." Wang Xian nodded and tiptoed out.
