Well!

Suddenly, the old man woke up from his dream.

The curtains on the dragon bed, the old man's sharp eyes, seemed to be still recalling the dream just now. To be precise, he was reminiscing, bits and pieces of memories.

That dream was actually not a dream, it was just a distant memory hidden deep in his heart. It was just that he had kept it hidden in his heart all these years, unwilling to think of it or mention it.

Zhu Chong, who stayed up all night for the position of commander-in-chief, was already the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Almost all his old brothers were dead. Some died on the battlefield, and some died in prison cells.

The rest is the young and ambitious Lan Yu.

Suddenly, I felt an unbearable soreness in my legs and a pain that stung my heart.

I have fought many battles in my life, and my old age is full of old wounds. When the wind blows or rains, it hurts like a knife.

The old man rubbed the joints on his legs and murmured to himself, "The weather is going to change!"

Suddenly, there was a heart-scratching stabbing sensation between the throat and chest and abdomen.

Cough, cough, cough, cough!

The initial website is https://m.

The old man couldn't bear it any longer, lowered his head and coughed violently.

After a cough, the palms of my hands were filled with thick yellow phlegm. At the same time, a dizzy and weak feeling began to spread throughout my body.

"old!"

The old man sighed feebly and leaned against the bed.

He wanted to live for another ten years and see his great-grandson again, but he knew that under his strong appearance, his body was actually riddled with wounds. The injuries in his youth would become diseases in his old age.

"Your Majesty is awake!" Pu Bucheng's voice came from outside the tent.

The old man stretched out his hand, let the other party wipe his hands carefully, and asked hoarsely, "What time is it?"

"It's just past five o'clock!" Pu Bucheng carefully wiped off the liquid on the old man's hand, "Your Majesty, I am the imperial doctor..."

"If you can cure the disease, can you cure your life? When a person gets old, his life will also get old!" The old man withdrew his hand, "Besides, even those quack doctors can detect diseases even if they are not sick! Pour a few bowls of bitter medicine soup,

Even gods can’t bear it!”

There was a moment of silence outside the tent, "Why don't I give you a pill of Shunqi? Last night, you coughed badly!"

"Yes!" The old man nodded, "Bring us a bowl of strong tea!"

"Your Majesty, it's only five o'clock in the morning, don't you want to sleep for a while?" Pu Bucheng asked worriedly.

"I won't sleep anymore!" The old man opened the curtains and said, "Let Jiang Yu come into the palace!"

~~~~~

Before dawn.

The waning moon is hazy, half visible and half hidden.

Jiang Wei knelt outside the door of the old man's palace, his body prostrated on the ground, except for his buttocks, which was higher than the threshold, like a dog.

The old man was sitting on the dragon bed wrapped in quilt, seeming to be looking at the waning moon outside the window, "Have you done what you were asked to do?"

Being called into the palace before dawn, Jiang Wei probably guessed what was going on. The old prince's current temper was really moody.

"Go back to your Majesty, I have already finished it!" Jiang Yu kowtowed and said, "The Suzhou magistrate confessed to the Knocking Que case. He took the blue jade route, and Zhan Hui agreed, so he became the Suzhou Prefect in Suzhou. During his tenure, every year

To the Duke of Liang, Zhan Hui’s house..."

"You are getting worse and worse at doing things!" The old man interrupted lightly.

However, Jiang Wei felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

The emperor is not satisfied with his work! He has been ordered to secretly search for the crimes of Lan Yu and others. There may be some illegality or arrogance, but the crimes are really... and the old emperor asked him to do it secretly

, he was not accused of Luo Zhi in a big way.

"You can't even do this!" the old man continued, "What kind of crime is this? Who hasn't had a disciple or a favor? Isn't it just sending some silk every year? Let's put it this way, the Ming Dynasty's

Are Beijing officials like Bing Jing and Tan Jing also embezzling? We want to make a solid case. This crime cannot convince the public!"

Dangdang, Jiang Wei kowtowed heavily, "I understand, I will do it now!"

"I'm counting on you, the day lilies are all cold!" As he said this, a memorial was thrown to Jiang Wei. The old man continued, "This is what Lan Yu has complained about us in private over the years. This is what he has said over the years.

List of officials who have close contact with him and are in a group with him."

As he said that, the old man's eyes finally fell on Jiang Wei, "First arrest a few people and let them accuse Lan Yu of treason, and then you will directly join him at the court meeting!"

Am I participating in Liang Guogong’s rebellion?

In an instant, a chill went directly from the top of the head to the tip of the tail!

But Jiang Wei had no choice. "If I obey the order, I will do it! It will be a solid case!" After saying that, Jiang Wei hesitated, "It's just......"

"Now that you are living more and more, you are going back. If you want to say anything, say it freely!" the old man said displeased.

Jiang Wei raised his head and said, "Where is the young master...? After all, he and Lan Yu are..."

"You're tired of living!" the old man said angrily, "Is this something you can worry about?"

"I know the crime!"

The old man looked at it for a while and suppressed his anger, "But the fact that you can think of this joint proves that we have not raised you in vain. When will you take part in the blue jade, you will wait for our instructions."

"I understand!"

"Moreover!" The old man raised a hand, "Let me ask you, do you know about Lan Yu's insult to the Yuan Lord's concubine?"

Suddenly, Jiang Wei was almost frightened to death.

"I really don't know!" Jiang Wei kowtowed again and again, "Your Majesty, I am your personal minister. If I knew about it, how could I not report it to Your Majesty!"

"Haha, we all know this, don't you?" The old man laughed, "I just said I didn't support you in vain!"

How could Jiang Wei not know that he was the commander of the Jinyi Guards? He really didn't expect that the general, who was so red, would become the emperor's eyesore and flesh thorn in less than half a year.

It’s not that he didn’t retaliate, it’s that he didn’t have time to retaliate!

It’s not that he won’t retaliate, but someone is threatening him and he can’t retaliate now!

"Forget it! Let's not ask any more, it will make us very angry!" The old man smiled again and looked at Jiang Wei, "This matter will be included in his charges, do you understand?"

"My lord, I obey the order!"

"roll!"

"I resign!"

Jiang Wei turned his back to the palace door and slowly climbed out.

"Pu Bucheng!" After he went out, the old man said slowly.

"My slave is here!" Pu Bucheng quietly stood beside the old man.

"We can't keep this bitch any longer!" the old man said with his eyes closed. "You have to look around and see who can replace him!"

"My slave, it seems that He Guangyi is quite steadfast, and he is closer to the young master!" Pu Bucheng said with a smile.

"Yes!" The old man nodded, "He knows that he made a mistake, and the man he died in the battle is our godson. You can go ahead and do it! Don't let the air blow out yet!"

"yes!"

Suddenly, there was a roar.

A bolt of lightning pierced the waning moon, golden snakes danced wildly, and heavy rain poured down.

The rain came so quickly and so urgently that people were caught off guard.

The heavy rain is like a curtain, covering the sky and the earth.

In the East Palace, Zhu Yunxi stood up and walked to the window, looking at the heavy rain outside the window.

"With such heavy rain, people's seedlings will suffer!"

Zhu Yunxi said with some worry that it was the spring plowing season, light rain could moisten the earth, but heavy rain would cause disaster.

"Shame on the king!"

"The slave is here!"

"Let people from the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Works come to the East Palace to see Gu!" Zhu Yunxi said, looking at the heavy rain, "Also, Chuan Gu's oral instructions should be sent to the various river yamen and the chief secretaries of various places. If the spring plowing is not going well in any place, report it immediately!"

"According to the order!"

But immediately, Wang Sha left and returned, followed by a person.

"Old Pu!" Zhu Yunxi said with a smile, "Why are you here so early!"

"Old slave, please see Your Highness!" Pu bowed and bowed irregularly, stood up and said with a smile, "Your Majesty asked this old slave to deliver the decree."

deliver an imperial order?

When did the father-in-law use it to convey orders?

"Your Highness does not need to salute, it is the Emperor's command!" Pu Bucheng said with a smile, "Qingming Festival is coming soon, and the Emperor said that you should return to the capital to worship your ancestors!"

Qingming?

Zhu Yunxi was a little puzzled, is it still far away? Which ancestor is this being sacrificed to?

Is it true that if the old man wants to do something, he must put himself aside?
