Chapter eight hundred and eighty fifth prince's confusion
Zhu Yuanzhang was naturally very pleased to get what he wanted from Zhang Ximeng. He turned around and saw Zhang Chengtian, and suddenly said: "You stinky boy, get over here!"
Zhang Chengtian quickly turned around and said, "I have met Your Majesty."
Lao Zhu looked him up and down, then snorted coldly: "We heard that you went to threaten the prince? You also said that he deliberately forced us to abdicate and scared him so much! Let me ask you, you don't know what the prince and we are?
Relationship? How dare you talk nonsense!"
Zhang Chengtian rolled his eyes, glanced at his father, suddenly puffed up his chest, and said proudly: "I know that your Majesty and the prince have a deep love for each other, but I think that even if they are biological father and son, they may not have the same heart. What's more, the Ming Dynasty is still here.
The noble generals in your Majesty's hands are all your Majesty's people, not the prince's. For the convenience of the future, the prince suppresses the noble generals and slanders the generals... and even damages your majesty's reputation. It is reasonable, and I must be careful!
"
"You're talking nonsense!"
Lao Zhu sternly asked, "Zhang Chengtian, based on your words, even if we punish you for instigating the Tian family's feelings, you won't be able to escape!"
Zhang Chengtian's heart was pounding wildly. If he said he wasn't afraid, he would be lying. But just now, the conversation he had with his father seemed to make Zhang Chengtian understand something.
"Your Majesty, the relationship between father and son is different from the relationship between the emperor and the prince. Don't forget that some people under the prince also have their own ideas. They coerce the prince, corrupt the national code, destroy the foundation of the Ming Dynasty, and destroy the foundation stone of the Ming Dynasty.
of!"
"Bold!" Zhu Yuanzhang was furious this time. He was really angry. He said with a dark face: "The prince is the future emperor. How could he damage his own foundation? Is this any different from digging his own grave?"
Zhang Chengtian was no longer afraid. He calmly said: "If all the princes in the world were like this, there would be no change of dynasties and the rise and fall of the country. The prince grew up in the peaceful years and did not know the hardships of establishing a country. Just like the ministers, they did not know how to do things.
In the beginning, there were such rigorous military regulations. I thought that your Majesty was just a bunch of rabble when he started to do things. The prince did not understand some things, trusted civil servants, and thought that running the country was just a matter of issuing a few decrees and a little effort! This is not the same as your Majesty.
I am not saying that he intends to corrupt the national code and destroy the Ming Dynasty. I am just saying that this situation has happened in all dynasties, and the prince is probably no exception. If your majesty wants to punish me because I told the truth, I have nothing to say!"
"Fart!" Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry, "Zhang Chengtian, you said you had nothing to say, but you said a lot! I want to ask you, what is your intention? By the way, your father is here, Mr. Zhang
,you, what do you think?"
Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly turned around and found that Zhang Ximeng had his eyelids lowered, as if he was asleep.
"Mr. Zhang, Mr. Zhang!"
Zhang Ximeng seemed to have woken up from a dream, and said vaguely: "My lord, Zhang Chengtian's commander was appointed by you. I don't know what to say. Everything depends on your Majesty's decision!"
"You, your son is talking nonsense, but you, the father, don't care?"
Zhang Ximeng smiled bitterly and said: "He, he and Your Majesty are talking about state affairs. There is no father or son in the court. If he breaks the family law, I will definitely punish him severely!"
"Absurd, absurd!" Zhu Yuanzhang was furious, "Mr. Zhang, we have learned a lesson... Zhang Chengtian, your commanding officer is gone!"
After saying this, Lao Zhu stood up and left angrily.
"Your Majesty, walk slowly." Zhang Ximeng sent him out, but Lao Zhu just snorted and left without looking back.
When Zhang Ximeng turned around and returned to the study, he found that Zhang Chengtian was still there. The little guy did not feel depressed at all because of losing his official position. Instead, his face was full of a smile that had succeeded in his conspiracy.
"Swallowing the Starry Sky: Signing in to Become a God"
"Dad, did you do a good job, kid?"
Zhang Ximeng rolled his eyes at him, and after a while, he sighed softly, "The marks from the axe-cut are still too heavy. Your Majesty will think clearly about it later, and maybe he will regret it."
Zhang Chengtian immediately said: "Father, don't worry, I have graduated from middle school and am qualified to take the imperial examination."
"Oh?" This sentence made Zhang Ximeng startled, "You, you plan to take the imperial examination directly? Don't go to Jimin Academy?"
Zhang Chengtian chuckled, "I can take the imperial examination first, and then take the time to go to Jimin Academy... This way I can get three more years of qualifications, and I can also go to other places to practice and work directly in the court. I'm afraid I won't be my opponent.
"
Zhang Ximeng frowned slightly, but after a moment, he burst out laughing, "Okay, your boy really surprised my father. Yes, he has some talent."
Zhang Chengtian chuckled, that’s called beauty, it’s finally recognized by his father, it’s not easy!
What kind of riddle are these two men playing?
There is no doubt that Chen Di, this bastard, must be severely punished without any discussion.
Zhang Chengtian went to force Zhu Biao and also helped Zhu Biao get out of his trap.
But the problem is that Zhu Biao is the prince of the prison country. If there is no explanation, it will damage Zhu Biao's prestige.
It is completely reasonable for Lao Zhu to pretend to be guilty.
And Zhang Chengtian's reaction was interesting. He didn't beg for mercy, and he didn't admit his mistake. Instead, he argued with reason and said a lot of things, which made Lao Zhu furious!
But you have to say what Zhang Chengtian said was wrong?
Not really!
It’s just that Zhu Yuanzhang has always valued the relationship between father and son more than anything else, even exceeding the practice of royal father and son!
You know, there are no fathers and sons in the royal family. It's a trivial matter like the Xuanwu Sect. Sons kill their fathers, and fathers kill their sons. Even in dynasties like Liu Song and Southern Qi, after ascending to the throne, there are not a few people who kill their entire family and kill their clan members.
.
This has been a common practice throughout the ages, so it’s not surprising at all that the prince would throw dirty water on his father!
After all, the emperor's power is not his power, so I don't feel bad for betraying my father Tian.
It's just that Lao Zhu's situation is special. He came from a humble background and relied on his own strength to sit on the throne. He had lost too much, so he paid special attention to the family relationship between father and son, and even did not hesitate to let the prince in his prime.
The Supervisor has great power.
Therefore, what Zhang Chengtian said can be said to any emperor, but not to Lao Zhu!
But Lao Zhu also understood the reason, so he just dismissed Zhang Chengtian's commander and took no further action.
The most interesting thing here is Zhang Ximeng. He did not speak for Zhang Chengtian at all, nor did he apologize to Lao Zhu, as if he had nothing to do with him.
If Zhang Ximeng was willing to say a kind word, Zhang Chengtian would not lose his official position.
Then why is Zhang Ximeng unwilling to help?
The mystery here is also very simple, because at this time, Zhang Chengtian needs to change to a more suitable stage. If he wants to play a role in the court, he can serve as the commander of the Arch Guard Department.
If you want to play a huge role, I'm sorry, but the Arch Guards Department is still too small.
If you even want to influence the prince, influence Zhu Biao, and protect what his father left behind, you need Zhang Chengtian to enter the court.
Take the normal promotion route of an official and realize his original ideal!
"Dad, how many years do you think it will take for me to climb up to the position I am in?"
Zhang Ximeng rolled his eyes at him and said, "You should think about how to pass the imperial examination! Let me remind you that although the imperial examination for middle school students is at a lower level, because there are so many people taking the exam, it is almost a select few! On the other hand, the Ministry of Etiquette presided over,
The exams for senior school graduates have a high starting point and difficult exams, but they are only one in a hundred. If you kid overturns the boat, I can't save you!"
Zhang Chengtian chuckled and said, "Dad, just take a look! If you want to compare with my elder brother, I might be even worse. But this kind of exam, for me, is a piece of cake!"
Zhang Chengtian is not ordinary confident, this kid has indeed improved a lot than before.
Zhang Chengtian, the grand master's son and the commander of the Imperial Guard Division who hosted the event, was dismissed from office, and the news spread quickly.
There is always a shortage of smart people in Yingtian City. Even if there is no news, they can figure it out... For example, Zhang Chengtian angrily impeached the prince, and Zhu Yuanzhang responded selfishly. For example, the love between father and son is better than the law of the country, and the loyal advice is dismissed from office.
...People quickly came up with many jokes.
There are various speculations and a tsunami.
There is no doubt that from the discussions between the government and the opposition, we can see how amazing Zhang Ximeng’s appeal is!
Zhu Biao, who was in the whirlpool, no longer had many choices.
"Chen Di, I was born in your house back then, and we are family friends... I don't understand why you would not hesitate to damage the foundation of Ming Dynasty? What are you thinking? Can you tell me the truth?"
Chen Di was nearly seventy years old and his hair was gray. After he was arrested, he looked even more haggard... He tried to straighten his back and said helplessly for a long time: "Why should Your Highness ask questions knowingly? As a father and an ancestor, you must leave something for future generations."
What!"
"Leave a bad name? Leave a legacy of corruption and perversion of the law?"
Chen Di was suddenly shocked and said sternly: "Your Highness, I have never taken bribes or violated the law. The descendants in my family have also managed their business honestly, and the wealth they have earned is fair and just!"
"Then you resorted to such despicable means in order to pass on this wealth?" Zhu Biao suddenly raised his voice.
Chen Di frowned, and his facial features were distorted. He gritted his teeth, and then laughed at himself, "Yes, our family is not a wealthy family, and there is no way to take it as a given... If His Highness feels unworthy, you can kill our Chen family."
The house is full! But I want to remind His Highness that there are not a few people who think the same as me!"
Zhu Biao also gritted his teeth, "Very good! No matter how much it is, you will be severely punished. All past friendships will be wiped out. You old man, just wait for punishment!"
Chen Di was filled with anger and wanted to say something, but he held it back in the end. It was useless to say more when death was imminent.
"Your Highness, take care!"
The people below took Chen Di away, but to Zhu Biao, the last four words were meaningful, as if Chen Di's tone contained a hint of ridicule.
As a prisoner, does he still have the right to mock the prince?
Zhu Biao frowned slightly. He seemed to remember another sentence from Chen Di, they are not Tianhuangguiwei!
Then who is Tianhuang Guiwei?
Zhu Biao seems to be the well-deserved first person!
Some things are indeed not that simple... Zhu Biao pondered for a long time, and there were still many doubts in his mind. He thought about it again and again, finally got up, and decided to go to the teacher to listen to his opinion.
