Chapter 70 – King Han’s Bad Luck
“Father ……” Zheng Neng was also frightened and said urgently, “What should we do then?”
Zheng Heng closed his eyes, “There is no more silver, the family is no more silver at all, except for this mansion, what should be sold are sold.”
Speaking here, hot hot tears slipped down from Zheng Heng’s eyes, Zheng Heng continued, “Those old brothers from the past, see me like this, now avoid me like a snake scorpion, one by one, they are badmouthing me and want to cut their robes and break the righteousness. Hey …… things have come to this point, there is only one way.”
Zheng Neng said, “What way.”
Zheng Heng eyes one, face gravely said: “Dad has to call the disease, have to call a big disease, starting today, closed door thank you, the outside world, I said, my old disease recurrence, now …… can not get up, son ah …… home home and abroad, have to rely on you! .”
Zheng Neng suddenly realized, “My son understands.”
When father and son agreed, Zheng Heng fell head over heels without saying a word.
Zheng Neng picked up Zheng Heng and yelled, “Father, father …… what happened to you, what happened to you …… my father ah …… ”
…………
Meanwhile, King Han, Zhu Gaoxu, who had heard the news, was already in a hurry.
When his father suddenly wanted to exile Zhu Yong and the others, Zhu Gaoxu did not say a word.
After all, he knew his father’s obstinate nature well, and he was his father’s good son, but he could not sing against his father at this time.
But where did he know that that royal brother of his actually ran to plead for mercy and that his father agreed.
Thus, Zhu Gaoxu regretted it.
What a great opportunity to buy people’s hearts and minds, and now it’s being stolen by his own brother.
Thinking of the intimacy that his father showed to Zhang Anshi that day, and hearing that his father went to the East Palace and praised his grandson Zhu Zhanji.
And then I thought that Father had begun to listen to Imperial Brother today.
Zhu Gaoxu felt as if the scales of his father, the Emperor, were beginning to tilt toward the Crown Prince.
If you don’t do a little something yourself ……
Zhu Gaoxu couldn’t help but shiver when he thought of this.
He hurried into the palace to ask for an audience.
At this time, Zhu Di has just been free, the crown prince and Yao Guangxiao people have retired. Hearing the Han King Zhu Gaoxu asked for an audience, Zhu Di still forced his spirit to say: “Called in.”
“Father.” As soon as Zhu Gaoxuan entered the hall, he spoke in a cordial and loud tone.
Zhu Di smiled, in the end, he still liked Zhu Gaoxu, after all, this child, indeed, resembled the young him.
Zhu Di said, “Today how to enter the palace again, see you mother did not?”
“Later.” Zhu Gaoxuan smiled and said, “Although my son is outside, his heart is always thinking of father and mother, it’s a pity that my son can’t live in the palace, if not, he can accompany father and mother day and night.”
Zhu Di smiled and said, “You have grown up, how can you live with your parents, not to mention that we are royalty. Come, sit down and talk.”
Zhu Gaoxu shook his head, “My son does not like to sit, always sitting and feeling that he can not stretch. Father …… shen was outside and heard something.”
Zhu smiled and said, “Go ahead, what is it again.”
Zhu Gaoxu said: “The children’s minister heard …… that the newest Fuzhimiao dock, the capital city three murderers had been there to do business, the proceeds are very much, the children’s minister also heard …… that it seems that Zhang Anshi … . is also involved in it ……”
Zhu Gaoxu said on one side, carefully observing Zhu Di’s reaction on the other.
When he saw Zhu Di’s expression congeal, he gained some confidence in his heart.
This sale, indeed many people know about it, and he thinks that perhaps his father has also noticed something, because this sale involves the Marquis of Wu An. However, he thought that his father probably didn’t know who the other people involved were.
Zhu Gaoxu continued, “Father, what has become of our Ming’s royal relatives. One by one with the people to compete for profit, in order to earn the silver of ignorance, do not hesitate to brutalize the people. The children’s minister heard …… that the pier there, many good people suffer for a long time, this matter …… the children’s minister thought that the matter is important, can not not be inspected ah.”
Zhu Di narrowed his eyes as he revealed an extremely wary look.
This kind of vigilance, which Zhu Gaoxu was very familiar with, was usually a sign of his father’s anger.
“So my son thought, for the Jiangshan mountains and grain, but also for the sake of long-term peace and security, or to ruthlessly kill a kill the current this trend for good, the father when the emperor should let the jinyiwei detailed thorough investigation, as for the people involved in the incident, etc. …… also need to be clarified.”
Zhu looked up, “Who did you hear these things from?”
Zhu Gaoxu froze and thought for a moment, “There are rumors everywhere.”
Zhu Di looked at Zhu Gaoxu warily, “If this is true, what do you want to do?”
Zhu Gaoxu said, “Check and confiscate, the people involved, those who should be reprimanded should be reprimanded, and those who should be punished should be punished.”
Zhu Di faintly said, “Fine, then just give the order to do it.”
Zhu Gaoxu first listened to his father say yes, his heart was overjoyed, but then listened to let him give the order, but suddenly felt that it was not right.
So he hurriedly smiled and said, “How could Father say such a joke? My son is not Father, how can I give orders?”
After saying this, Zhu Di suddenly became furious and said, “You also know that you can’t give orders? But you still dare to be idle and meddle in other people’s business all day long? What are you? You are the king of Han, you a feudal king, should have rolled back to their own feudal residence to go, this capital is not where you should stay. I think of father and son love, only will you stay in the capital, but you only know day after day cross-branching! What, this Ming dynasty and mountain is yours?”
Zhu Gaoxu only felt the thunderbolt from the clear sky, he was just saying a few words, why is his father so angry?
He was anxious: “Father, after all, my son is your son, my son …… my son ……”
Zhu Di, however, pointed his finger at the door of the hall, “Get out, get the hell out of here!”
Zhu Gaoxu still wanted to continue to play tricks: “What is the offense of my son?”
Zhu Di seemed to be even more angry, glaring at him, copied the zhengshi on the imperial case, and slammed it towards Zhu Gaoxu: “Get out of here!”
Zhu Gaoxu was smashed by the zhangzhi, although not injured, but also ate pain, at this time to see his father’s thunderous anger, where still dare to talk more, a smoke on the run.
Zhu Di’s voice also came from behind him, “Into your mother, how did I give birth to a dog like you!”
Han Wang Zhu Gaoxu heart like a knife, he in any case can not understand, the problem is out of where.
He was terrified as a lost dog, ran all the way for half a day, and arrived at the noon gate, only a little heart settled down.
And at that moment, a man came walking on his face, who was obviously preparing to enter the palace.
It’s Kizuna.
Ji Gang was wearing an admirable flying fish costume, with an iron plate hanging from his waist and an embroidered spring sword.
Zhu Gaoxu and Ji Gang, also counted as a life-long friendship, in the dispute over the Crown Prince, although Ji Gang has never taken a position, and rarely dealt with Zhu Gaoxu, but each other, but there is a tacit understanding.
As soon as Ji Gang saw Zhu Gao Xu leaving the palace in a sorry state, he couldn’t help but frown slightly.
However, he didn’t say much, just lightly stepped forward, “Greetings, King Han.”
Zhu Gaoxu fixed his mind and reluctantly smiled, “Is Commander Ji going to meet the driver?”
Without being condescending, Kizuna said, “Yes.”
Zhu Gaoxu suddenly lowered his voice: “Father Emperor seems to have complaints about this king recently, it must be that my royal brother said something bad.”
Ji Gang frowned slightly, he seemed to feel that on this occasion, he should be more cautious and should not have a private conversation with Zhu Gao Xu here.
But it was clear that King Han was in a hurry, and Ji Gang had to respond softly, “What is the reason?”
“Just don’t know what the reason is.” Zhu Gaoxu had an anxious look on his face and thought about it, “This king has thought about it, but still needs to find a person that father trusts ……”
There was no expression on Kizuna’s face.
“Does this person, Guo Degan, ring a bell?”
“Know this man.”
“This person is deeply favored by the saints, the father emperor praises him never disguise, Ji brother, you have to find a way to Guo De Gan this person …… to find out.”
Kizuna’s frown deepened.
“Why, why didn’t Brother Ji say anything?”
Ji Gang paused for a moment and said, “Your Highness, His Majesty has given three orders not to inquire into Guo De Gan’s identity.”
Zhu Gaoxu looked displeased, “You and I are brothers, you can just make a quiet visit.”
Ji Gang looked deeply at Zhu Gaoxu, but said, “Your Highness …… His Majesty strictly prohibited the matter of investigation and visit, the brocade guards can never ask, this is the iron law, I think this is also for the sake of your Highness.”
He paused, seemed to think that Zhu Gaoxuan may still not be able to understand, then said: “Brocade Guards is a sharp edge, when Emperor Taizu was in the time, but also on the Brocade Guards guard, once abolished the Brocade Guards, precisely because, once the Brocade Guards are out of control, the backlash is very great. The emperor is so saintly, and will not understand this reasoning?”
“So I thought, within this jinyiwei, there must be a lot of his majesty sprinkled into the jinyiwei inside the spy, these people …… always staring at my every move, if my humble for your highness at this time to check the whereabouts of guo de gan, in less than three days, there will be someone to report to his majesty, and at that time, I’m afraid your highness and humble are in big trouble. and I will be in big trouble.”
Zhu Gaoxu sank his face and finally sighed, “Alright, alright.”
Saying so, he staggered past Kizuna.
He went straight back to his own royal residence, but he kept sighing and sighing, as if he still felt unwilling.
So after some thought, he beckoned a guard to come, “Hand you something.”
“Please command Your Highness.” This Han King’s Guard’s people, pour one by one, were all Han King’s beloved people, all of them fought their way out of the mountain of corpses and sea of blood with Zhu Gaoxu.
Zhu Gaoxu said, “There is a person, we have to our own people to check carefully, but …… but never can be publicized, must not leak half a bit of wind.”
“Who is it?”
“One called Guo De Gan.” Zhu Gaoxu slowly said, “It’s a doctor, doesn’t seem to be very old, should just be a youth, about twenty years old, Father Emperor, this person, the most favorite is the youth who looks like me, therefore, I think carefully, this person must be quite tall and powerful.”
The guard was silent for a moment before saying, “Based on these alone, it’s really hard to find.”
“This person must be in Nanking City.”
The guard thought for a moment and said, “I will secretly bring people here and turn this Nanking city upside down to find this person as well.”
Zhu Gaoxu looked deeply at the guard: “Don’t hit the grass to scare the snake, remember …… that this matter must never be publicized, and the manpower selected, must be credible. All in all, dig three feet into the ground, if you can’t find Guo De Gan, bring your head.”
The guard winced.
“Here!”
