Chapter 190: The Truth Comes Out

The more Zhu listened, the more confused he became.

This didn’t go against me at once, but it went against me again at once, how is it like Zhang Anshi’s nature, jumping horizontally from left to right?

So Zhu Di was patient, he sat down slowly before saying, “You continue.”

Zhang Anshi said, “This person, Chen Ying, is profit-oriented and has two ends of the stick. In the beginning, in order to follow the dragon, he not only befriended His Majesty, but also befriended the King of Ning. In the beginning, both His Majesty and King Ning were pressurized by the cutting of clans, and there was nothing wrong with conspiring with him.”

“And after the success of the pacification, he also became a pacification merit, he boasted that he had the merit from the dragon, not inevitably arrogant, in order to profit, they secretly make friends with smuggling merchants, from which they make profiteering, and some of these things are also there.”

When Zhu Di heard this, he could not help but be furious.

Zhang Anshi then continued, “And as for him and between the King of Ning, there is indeed a liaison, but this liaison is only because of the friendship before the Jingdan, this person is very shrewd, and never put eggs in a basket, so …… this person is deeply sinful. I am in the desert to probe, also did probe to some smuggling activities related to Chen Ying.”

Zhu Di sneered, “What a Chen Ying, truly detestable.”

Zhang Anshi then said, “But the crux of the matter lies in the fact that …… has Your Majesty ever thought that Chen Ying’s matter …… is simply a smokescreen that some people in the middle of the desert have intentionally put out for us?”

“What’s a smoke bomb?” Zhu asked, always hearing strange words from this guy!

“It is ……” Zhang Anshi mouth opened as big as an egg, old half a day before saying, “It is the staged suspicion, it is the bait that is deliberately thrown to us. Should be someone knows, Chen Ying head rat two ends of the matter, so will Chen Ying thrown out, and thrown out of the purpose …… is to let us smoothly find out the black hand behind the scene.”

Hearing this, Zhu Di looked up at King Ning.

He pointed his finger at King Ning and said, “You’re talking about this Zhu Quan?”

Calling them by their first names, not even giving them face.

Zhang Anshi smiled sarcastically and said, “Precisely.”

Zhu raised his eyebrows, “Why is that?”

“Because as long as the mastermind behind the scenes is King Ning, only then will they be able to completely cut off their arms to survive.”

Zhu Di’s frown deepened, “Why?”

Zhang Anshi said, “Because everyone wants the person behind the scenes to be King Ning.”

At these words, the hall suddenly fell silent.

Kizuna’s face was already pitch black, and he still hung his head down in a submissive manner.

Zhu Di’s face, on the other hand, is becoming more and more grave: “You words make it clearer.”

Zhang Anshi said with emotion: “For the Ji commanding officer, he is the jinyiwei commanding officer, now since it is not easy to immediately catch a black hand behind the scenes to set up a big credit, and the higher the identity of this person, the more extraordinary status, only to show his ability, so …… once he thought that …… Chen Ying collusion is the time of the King of Ning, no matter for Ji Commanding Officer, or Jin Yi Wei, are like a fly touching a rotten egg.”

Zhang Anshi then smiled at Ji Gang and said, “I’m sorry for this, Commander Ji, I’m a man who can’t speak, please don’t be offended.”

Ji Gang only buried his head, and in his heart, there is probably only into your mother.

In favor of him, he dared not respond to anything.

Zhang Anshi said: “In fact, those people, the use of precisely the jinyiwei eager to get credit, as well as hope to involve the Ning Wang’s psychology. And this case, there is indeed a lot of evidence to prove that Chen Ying smuggling pig iron, collusion with the Tartars, but also with the Ning King close relationship, it can be said that …… the human evidence and material evidence, are all complete, by the brocade guards do not believe.”

Zhu only nodded, “And?”

Even Zhu Quan, who was on the side, couldn’t help but look Zhang Anshi up and down at this moment, as he steeply discovered that this favored minister beside Zhu Laoshi seemed to have something extraordinary.

A pin dropped in the temple.

Zhang Anshi then said, “I am a little afraid to say the next words.”

Zhu Di glared at him and said, “In front of me, what words dare not say! What’s more, this world dare not say dare not say words, you have said, I if narrow-minded, you still have today?”

“Then the minister said.” Zhang Anshi said, “They not only use the jinyiwei, in fact, also use the psychology of his majesty, think of when the time of the pacification, his majesty did borrow troops from the king of Ning, but also promised some …… well …… of course, where to become a great man. Sometimes it should have been like this, as the saying goes, this time and another time also.”

Zhu said, “You fucking pick up the important ones.”

In Zhu Di’s impatience, Zhang Anshi had to harden his heart, “And His Highness the King of Ning is good at scheming, and has always had popularity in Daning, especially in the Duo Yan three guards, and His Majesty is the Son of Heaven, so in order to prevent the Seven Kings Rebellion of the Han Dynasty from occurring, it’s actually only natural for the King of Ning to be guarded against it.”

“That is to say, his majesty has always suspected the king of Ning, to the king of Ning extra careful, this time, any involved in the king of Ning, in fact, will amplify his majesty for the king of Ning suspected emotions! At this time, if the brocade guards come to report, then …… His Majesty will definitely be preoccupied, not to mention that …… the evidence of this matter is still considered to be conclusive, this Ning Wang …… even if it is not a conspiracy to rebel, His Majesty has also been recognized him as a rebel.”

Hearing this, Zhu Di couldn’t help but raise his head and glance at Ning Wang Zhu Quan, then revealed a few awkward colors and dryly said, “Don’t you talk nonsense.”

Although this is said, but Zhu Di at this time also seems to begin to realize this point, if it is someone else, he may be sensible and objective to check the evidence, but Ning Wang is different, this is originally a huge hidden danger and threat. He had been on guard for so many years, and once the King of Ning made any untoward move, it would be considered by Zhu Di as a sign of rebellion.

Zhang Anshi smiled again: “The most marvelous thing here is precisely Chen Ying, Chen Ying is indeed considered to be fornicating with the Tartars, smuggling so much pig iron, it can be said that ten thousand deaths are not enough to be spared, and he was found out by the Eastern Window, which is already a crime of ten thousand deaths, and after he was sent down to the imperial prison and was tortured, he will definitely confess his guilt, and he knows that he is bound to die, and the only thing he would like to do is to reduce some of the torment. ”

“But …… this greedy and faithless villain, alone confessed himself and smugglers collusion, obviously is not enough, because people have recognized that he smuggling is intentional, so do not confess a little what, this torture will not stop! Imperial Prison is what kind of place, is the minister so loyal and righteous, depending on life and death as nothing people, also dare not say survive, let alone Chen Ying such a despicable villain.”

“So …… he in order to less suffer a little bit of crime, will certainly find a way to …… confess to the things that the brocade guards are interested in, this is also why …… he finally confessed to the King of Ning, even if between him and the King of Ning …… may not actually be a co-conspirator, but after all, …… there was once a close liaison, and these will be enough to make the King of Ning become a co-conspirator with him.”

Zhu breathed out and listened quietly and carefully.

And Ji Gang at this time, but more and more feel not the taste, his heart apprehensive speculation, wanting to find loopholes from Zhang Anshi’s words.

At this moment, Zhang Anshi sighed, ”You see, those people are really too smart, they threw out Chen Ying, but then utilized everyone’s eagerness to get things done to implicate King Ning. Not to mention that King Ning is good at scheming, such a big case of conspiracy, if it was done by someone else, maybe His Majesty wouldn’t believe it, but once it was done by King Ning, His Majesty would definitely be convinced. Because under all the heavens, a person as well versed in strategy as King Ning, who is also in a high position of power and has great popularity, can be considered a rare find.”

“The most interesting part of this is that once His Majesty determines that it is someone else, the case may have to be tried again and again. But if it is determined that Ning Wang, not to mention that Ning Wang has no way to explain, and even if he explains …… his majesty also thinks that this is a scandal, and will not ask about it in detail. Because this involves the royal family, since there is already evidence of Chen Ying and others, in order to reduce the impact of this big case of treason, His Majesty will definitely be quick to cut through the mess and hastily end the case, and will never announce it to the world to make it clear that the punishment is just.”

“Once the King of Ning dies, then this matter will come to an end, and those who are truly plotting against him will be safe from the wind and the fear of the court continuing to pursue them.”

When Zhu Di heard this, his expression moved slightly, and when he thought about it carefully, it was really true.

If the plot against another person, indeed will be tried again and again, always have to try a bottom sky. But if Zhu Quan …… is more and more detailed trial down, his Zhu Di’s face is more and more can not be shelved, in all likelihood, is to be disposed of according to the King Zhu Gui, hasty kill the matter.

Zhang Anshi said: “not only so it …… a certain extent, once the rebellion is the king of Ning, and his majesty will certainly be on the king of Ning, the king of Ning in the beginning of the feudal domain of Daning, Daning is the desert south town, and get the hearts of the three guards of the Duo Yan, the news if it is spread to the desert south, I’m afraid that the people of the army and the people of the Ning, and the Duo Yan three guards will all be disappointed for this. If this news reaches the south of the desert, I am afraid that the people and the army of Daning, and the three Doyen guards, will be disappointed. They are already at the border between Tartary and Ming, and with His Majesty killing the King of Ning, it will be even easier for the Tartars to enlist them.”

“See …… this is a one arrow three carving plan, everywhere the organs calculated, not only will his majesty and Ji commanders play in the palm of the hand, but also take the opportunity to cause the internal disorder of my Ming, how poisonous also.”

Zhu Di heard, could not help but color change, he closed his eyes, his eyes are suspicious, think carefully, Zhang Anshi this analysis, is really ingenious to the extreme.

He took a deep breath, if …… all this is really the other side of the trick, then the implementation of this plan, and can also manipulate Xu Wen such a person, in the end, how unfathomable is it?

Kizuna was really in a hurry at this point.

He couldn’t help but say, “All of this is no more than a guess on your part, even if it makes sense.”

Zhang Anshi shook his head and said, “All of this is indeed my speculation, and from the very beginning, I did not believe that King Ning was plotting a rebellion.”

Zhu Di came to be interested, so he said, “Why?”

Zhang Anshi said, “Your Majesty, our enemy, it is not trivial, and the identity …… of the Ning King is too flashy to be like the mastermind behind the scenes.”

In fact, there was one sentence that Zhang Anshi did not say.

Because the history of the Ning Wang Zhu Quan although suffocated, but really did not plot against, to know, he is in history, but Zhu Di has been the main object of prevention, he is such a sensitive identity, but wherever as long as the discovery of a little bit of what to come, are likely to be Zhu Di suspicion.

But the actual? The actual is …… Zhu Di secretly let a person secretly investigate for many years, but also did not find out a ding half a trace.

Zhang Anshi had been a man for two lifetimes and was familiar with this part of history, so naturally he had already had a preconceived notion that there was absolutely no problem with Zhu Quan.

The person behind the curtain, such a strange plan, calculating can be said to be clear, if not because Zhang Anshi from the beginning never suspected the words of Zhu Quan, to Zhang Anshi’s IQ, in all probability, and Zhu Di, Ji Gang, the same, was the person behind the curtain led by the nose.

It was just that Zhang Anshi could not say these words.

The only thing that Zhang Anshi did was to determine that Zhu Quan was never the mastermind, and then began to think in the right direction, guessing why Zhu Quan would be involved, and why a Chen Ying would suddenly be thrown out, and following this line of thought, then he was closer and closer to the truth, as well.

Ji Gang said, “The Marquis of Annan is the Commander of the Commander of the Jinyiwei Commanders, so naturally he should also know that there is real evidence for everything, and if it’s just speculation, there’s no need to say anything.”

“Who said it is just a guess?” Zhang Anshi hooked his lips to reveal a trace of a calm smile, then took out a pile of things from his sleeve and said, “Your Majesty …… this is the evidence that I …… have found out, please have a look at it.”

Zhu glanced at Ji Gang.

Kizuna was a bit tense, at this point he had to obediently shut up.

Zhu Di made a wink towards Yiluoha.

Zhang Anshi handed something to Yiluoha, while patiently explaining: “I these days, did two things, one is to investigate the smuggling firms colluding with Chen Ying, here, there is that firm smuggling some of the source of goods, as well as out of the customs after the destination of the goods, which there is a, your majesty, please look at the ninth page, at the end of last year, they to the Tartars, sold pig iron One hundred and ten thousand pounds, and at the same time …… they took the way to the west of the river, and sold more than sixty thousand pounds of pig-iron to the Wara people at the west of the river again.”

Zhu Di actually couldn’t understand it, but after listening to Zhang Anshi’s explanation, he suddenly understood something.

So he said: “If Chen Ying is really collusion is Tartar, and would not sell pig iron to Valar? The Northern Yuan has split into two, and become two tribes: the Valar and the Tartar, each of which claims to be the orthodoxy of the Northern Yuan, and each of which …… has a deep grudge against each other, attacking each other constantly, and the contradiction between them is even greater than that between my Ming Dynasty and the Tartars and the Valar, and that’s why you think that, if Chen Ying is really plotting a rebellion, he couldn’t have done the same thing in the desert, and he would not be able to do the same thing with both Tartars and Valar. That’s why you think that if Chen Ying were really plotting a rebellion, it would not be possible for him to be in the desert as well, trading with the Tartars as well as the Valar?”

Zhang Anshi nodded his head and said, ”Your Majesty is wise! Not bad, since they did this, this confirms my guess, this Chen Ying collusion with smuggling merchants, the essence is because of greed, but seeking wealth. This person is indeed greedy, and the crime is unpardonable, he is only using his own identity in the dynasty, to shelter smuggling merchants, if you say conspiracy …… is not really counted. Of course, smuggling is also collaborating with the enemy, the same is the crime of ten evils.”

When Zhu exhaled, he added, “And?”

Zhang Anshi then said: “There are many accounts, there are many trading messages, the head of pig iron, salt and tea prices, although there are ups and downs, can be roughly, and the market price is almost the same. If it is a conspiracy, it does not make sense, the head said it is a normal sale more like some.”

“Since …… it is simply smuggling for profiteering, Chen Ying is not a rebel party, then he is involved out of the King of Ning, saying that His Highness the King of Ning plotted a rebellion …… which makes no sense at all. ”

Zhang Anshi paused and added: “As for what Chen Ying said in his mouth, that he colluded with King Ning when he was in the midst of the Jingnan period, this obviously has nothing to do with King Ning either. When Jianwen wanted to cut the clan, Ning Wang and His Majesty felt the same enormous pressure, at this time Chen Ying took the initiative to contact, Ning Wang out of concern for the current situation, and conspired with it, even if it is said to be scheming, this scheming is also Jianwen’s world, and His Majesty …… really does not have much to do with it.”

Zhang Anshi said, “I also let people to Nanchang House some investigation, His Highness Ning Wang in Nanchang House did not have any faults, and even everywhere constrained, of course,…… he has some grievances against his majesty, but there is also, but these grievances, but also is only the speculation of the ministers, but if it is because of this to set Ning Wang to the crime of treason, I am not, after all, Ji Commander, do not have the courage to do so.”

Hearing this, Ji Gang became terrified, “Your Majesty ……鑷�……”

Zhu Di took a deep breath as he looked at Zhang Anshi awkwardly.

Inside him, there was an unspoken anger.

It’s a feeling of being played.

If not for Zhang Anshi’s timely report ……

Then Zhu Di said, “In that case, King Ning is not guilty?”

“Not guilty.” Zhang Anshi said with certainty, “If Your Majesty really disposes of the King of Ning, it will instead cause pain to those who are close to him and anger to those who are not.”

Zhu Di tried to make himself calm: “And I …… almost ……… have to blame the wrong my brother?”

The Ning King on the side, at this time, only a cold smile remained in his heart!

Brothers?

That’s not what the party said.

What the King of Ning is angry about is that when you, Zhu Di, lied to me, lied and lied, just take it as a loss for me.

But in the past two years, in order not to be you settling scores, I built a bookstore in the royal residence, and concentrated on reading every day, hall clan king, careful with his words and actions, not dare to say a word that should not be said, and not dare to do a thing that causes suspicion.

Well, suddenly but to summon me to the capital, and then suddenly deducted a big hat of treason.

Even the district jinyiwei commanding officer ji zhang, all dare to beat the hall of the king’s concubine, or in front of the spirit of the imperial examination, the same is the dragon’s son and grandson, what benefits have let you Zhu Laoshi accounted for, he is the king but also suffered such humiliation.

Zhu Di stood up, then laughed: “Hahaha …… really big water washed away the dragon king temple ……”

Said, he went forward, intimate hold Ning Wang Zhu Quan both shoulders, said:” I …… really confused, seventeenth brother …… this is all a misunderstanding ah!”

Zhu Quan only grimaced, although he had been pretending to be a grandson for more than two years, he really couldn’t do anything at this point in time that would still allow him to rejoice and smile once he had sunk his teeth into the ground.

Zhu Di, on the other hand, patted his shoulder and added: “These traitors, really hateful, they in order to shake the foundation of my Ming, can really be said to be calculated, fortunately …… Zhang Anshi …… well, this kid, he is Gao Ki’s wife brother, you have heard of him, is also considered our relatives, this time thanks to him, or you my brother, really want to be separated.”

It was at this time that Zhu Quan’s face eased a little.

Of course, this eased face was not directed at Zhu.

He looked towards Zhang Anshi, nodded towards him and said, “At a young age, you have this ability, they all say that this king is good at strategizing, but I can’t imagine that beside his majesty, there is still such a person with tactics.”

Zhu Di enthusiastically said, “Yes, yes, I am also surprised that at his young age, he has such skills.”

Zhu Quan, however, said abruptly, “Both he and my brother are good at scheming, so why would Your Majesty suspect my brother but not him?”

Chu: “……”

Zhu Di felt his face a little stiff, in fact, his face is still hanging a smile, just this smile …… is really a little ugly.

Of course he can not say, you are my brother, are the descendants of Taizu high emperor, so have to beware of you! People Zhang Anshi is just a relative, this kid is usually domineering, I do not know how many people have been offended, in addition to his ability to earn money, can cure, can ride the world for me, but the only thing that will not be is to buy people’s hearts, how can I possibly suspect him?

Of course, these heartfelt words are impossible to say.

So Zhu Di tried hard to cover up the embarrassment and said with an angry face, “Hey …… really thieves are hateful!”

With that, he put away his anger again and smiled, “Come, come, come, since you’re here, go, I’ll take you to see your sister-in-law.”

Zhu Quan still looks pale, not cold and hot, “I do not dare to go to pay respect, if I pay respect, not to avoid embarrassment, I am the person who wears the sin, your majesty to kill or die, at your service.”

These words were obviously sarcastic, but at this time, Zhu Di, knowing that he was at a disadvantage, grinned, “Haha, you are still as straightforward as before, isn’t this all a misunderstanding? Zhang Anshi, tell us about it.”

Zhang Anshi, who was named, hung his head and thought to himself, “What can I say? I’m only good at stirring up trouble.

But can you pretend you don’t know what the Emperor has said?

What’s more, His Majesty clearly needed him to save the day at this point.

Taking a deep breath, Zhang Anshi then said: ”Right, right, right, what your majesty said is too right, these thieves, their intentions are malicious, what they want to shake, it’s the countryside left by Emperor Taizu! Now they are trying to murder His Highness the King of Ning, fortunately His Highness the King of Ning is not afraid of shadows, and Your Majesty is wise, otherwise, they would have really taught them to alienate Your Majesty’s brothers. In my opinion, we must not let these traitors go, and when I have exhausted these traitors, I will be sure to break them into pieces in front of Your Highness.”

Zhu Quan then looked at Zhang Anshi and frowned, “Those thieves, do you have an idea?”

“There will be an eyebrow soon.” Zhang Anshi said.

Zhu Quan seems to be quite interested in this as well.

He vaguely realized that the person who could have this strange plan must be extraordinary!

Zhu Quan this person, originally known for good strategy, now is considered a chess match, then can not help but say: “They so framed this king, if not to take hold, indeed difficult to eliminate this king hate. These people …… colluded with Tartar …… when this king was a vassal of Daning, the situation of desert south, is quite familiar.”

Speaking here, he glanced at Zhu Di and said, “If Your Majesty does not suspect anything, and there is any need on the side of the Marquis of Annan, something, you can come and ask this king, or you can have some kind of frown.”

Zhu Di did not hesitate to say: “Zhang Anshi, do you hear? You have to teach more to the king of Ning, the king of Ning was smart when he was small, when the imperial examination in the time, then repeatedly said, among the sons of the emperor, the king of Ning is the most intelligent. You are a little smart, but compared with my brother, but still far from it.”

Zhang Anshi immediately said, “I have been taught.”

With that, he then looked at Zhu Quan and said, “Your Highness …… then the minister may really have to bother.”

Zhu Quan suddenly said, “This king heard that you, in Qixia, built a library with countless books?”

Zhang Anshi said, “I am ashamed to say that I have some books.”

Zhu Quan nodded, “This king has only been worried about not having books to read lately, and after some days, he would like to go and see a bit.”

With these words, he clearly meant what he said, on the one hand, he was praising Zhang Anshi.

On the other hand, it is to say to Zhu Di, you see, this king is now only thinking of reading, for the family and the world, really can not be interested in, you do not always be suspicious.

Zhu was soon freed from his embarrassment; after all, as long as he wasn’t embarrassed, it was everyone else who was.

So Zhu Di turned back to also lost Ha prudently commanded: “also lost Ha …… pass my will, the compiled “literature Dacheng”, to copy a copy, send Nanchang House.”

Zhu Quan, however, said, “My brother dares to ask …… how the royal residence …… of my brother’s Nanchang Province is now, whether …… it is still there? ”

At these words, Zhu Di’s face changed slightly.

After determining that Zhu Quan plotted a rebellion, Zhu Di gave a secret decree that Zhu Quan’s journey to the capital must have been strictly guarded and that he was forcibly invited to come.

Then the Nanchangfu side …… will surely take measures at the same time.

Just …… measures taken to what extent.

Whether or not those close to the King of Ning and his relatives in Nanchang Province have already begun to sea arrest, this is not something that Zhu Di has ever asked about.

Looking at Zhu Di s expression, Zhu Quan has already been considered to get the answer, he ironed his face and said quietly, “I think …… it is already irretrievable.”

Said, sighed, before continuing, “His Majesty’s meritorious dogs, in that Xiaoling mausoleum, in front of this king, still dares to beat my brother’s concubines and terrorize my brother’s family members, not to mention Nanchang Province ……”

“Well, my brother has no words to say, the so-called king wants me to die, I have to die …… Thunder and rain, all for the king’s grace …… My brother and His Majesty named brothers, but in fact, but is the king and the ministers, the matter has come to the present day, how can there be complaints? ”

Zhang Anshi in the side actually giggle up, he does not want to be happy, just do not know how, anyway, listening to the words of Zhu Quan feel very festive, can make him happy bad.

Zhu’s face plummeted and instantly pulled down.

Seeing this, Zhang Anshi immediately withdrew his smile.

Zhu Di tensed his face and said, “Beating the seventeenth brother’s concubine? And terrorized 17th brother’s family?”

Zhu Quan said, ”Your Majesty, these …… are all in the past. I am just a vassal king, what is it? In order to the foundation of Emperor Taizu, in order to the long-term stability of the Ming Dynasty, my brother suffered these grievances, and what is it? After all, I am fortunate that I am still alive, and this is already enough to make me satisfied.”

Zhu’s body trembled.

The concubine thing is no joke.

Not to mention slapping, even touching the concubine of a feudal lord is already very serious.

You should know that the so-called male and female are not related, not to mention that Zhu Quan is still the son of the dragon and the grandson of the dragon! This is him, the emperor, a proper brother, a high-powered vassal king.

Zhu Di instantly became furious, his gaze turned to Ji Gang morosely, and he said in a cold voice, “Ji Gang, is that so?”
