The emperor suddenly became angry, and the court was completely silent. No one dared to speak for fear of offending the emperor, but this new censor would definitely not be able to escape today.
Prince Zhu Gaochi was a little worried, but his father was furious. If he stood up now, he would probably punish him too. He shook his head and sighed. Previously, he only thought Yu Qian had a straightforward personality, but who would have thought that even Long Wei would dare to touch him.
Can't keep it either.
"Pull it down and punish the ten big boards with the stick. If you don't change your problem of speaking out, you will continue to punish!" Zhu Di was so angry that his mouth went dry. He waved his hand and asked Xiao Jingzi to announce the next court.
The others looked at each other, what did the emperor mean today?
But at this moment, Yu Qian still didn't lower his head and frowned, "I'm right, the King of Chu is a talented general, you guys..."
Before he finished speaking, guards were already pulling him out. Even the courtiers standing in the Jinluan Palace could clearly hear the ten major battles.
Being punished in front of the ministers, all face was lost, but Yu Qian was still shameless, lying on the bench and shouting feebly.
Everyone shook their heads. It seemed that the emperor had no intention of reducing the vassal. He also punished Qian with a small punishment and a big warning. The matter was left undisturbed. King Chu's position could not be shaken. The people who suggested it before were even more helpless, but they knew in their hearts that if the emperor
If you want to take advantage of the turmoil just now, you will definitely go to war!
Although Zhu Muchen did not go to court, Aji delivered all the news. Seeing every move that happened in the court, he was a little bit dumbfounded, "These old ministers are already afraid of the vassal king, and they want to get rid of him quickly.
I have learned what Zhu Di did, but now that the emperor is in a position to employ people, he will definitely not touch me."
It is estimated that in less than half a month, we will go to the north. The area has been stable for such a long time. The three forces must have united and saw the increase in the northern garrison. They were a little wary and restrained, but they soon realized that something was wrong.
But when he saw the news behind it, Zhu Muchen's brows furrowed even more tightly. This Yu Qian was a real person and someone who loved to tell the truth. This time he stood up for himself and was beaten by the emperor. Although he was beaten in
In Yu Qian's case, Zhu Di was actually trying to warn Zhu Muchen not to touch the imperial power.
"Aji will take some gold sore medicine and supplements and go with me to see Yu Qian."
Zhu Muchen visited Yu Qian's house in person, but found that Yu Qian's home still had earthen walls, and even the door was crumbling. Aji was not careful and heard a snap, and the wooden door fell down and broke into two pieces on the ground.
Aji: "..."
"Your Majesty, I was not careful in bidding, but this door is too shabby. It doesn't look like a censor's home at all. Even if I bid to buy a house, it will be better than Master Yu Qian's!"
Zhu Muchen sighed, and just as Yu Qian came out holding his waist, his face was pale, and when he saw Zhu Muchen's eyes bright, he said, "Why is the prince here!"
When he came out of the palace today, let alone the adults, even the little eunuch looked at him like he was a fool. However, the King of Chu did not mind it. This was the first time he came to his home since he became an official.
Asking Aji to put down his things and stand guard at the door, Zhu Muchen glanced at Yu Qian. He had already used a lot of strength to reach the door and was hit by ten boards. He couldn't move now. It was extremely difficult to even cross the threshold.
Yu Qian was a man who cared about his self-esteem. He waved his hand and persisted, lying on the bed again, "Your Majesty, please don't laugh at me. I didn't say anything big or small, and I offended the Emperor. I got a lot of slaps today, but it doesn't matter!"
Aren’t they just a few big boards?
If given another chance to choose, Yu Qian would also speak for the King of Chu.
"I have heard about what happened today, but everyone in the court is wary of the vassal king, so you don't have to stand up for me!"
"What did the King of Chu say?" Yu Qian lay on the pillow with a worried expression, "You are a good vassal king and you do practical things for the court. Why should I punish you? To set you up as a warning? It's nothing more than a fool's errand.
It just hurts a little, but I joined the court just to tell the truth. If I can’t even tell the truth, then I would rather be a country boy!"
It was exactly the same as in history. Zhu Muchen couldn't laugh or cry. Yu Qian had been punished several times just because he told the truth. He stared at the wooden door at the door and said, "I am grateful. Now you have entered the Jinluan Palace.
This house is not good, I will give you a house!"
"Ouch!" When Yu Qian heard that the King of Chu was going to give him a house, he turned over in excitement and hit the wound. He grinned in pain and quickly refused: "I'm not doing it for the King of Chu. I just told the truth.
How can I accept benefits from others? I am a scholar. As for my residence, I just need a place to protect myself from wind and rain. King Chu must not look down on me!"
In his heart, he has the noble spirit of a scholar, and he is always unwilling to accept it. Although Zhu Muchen appreciates it, he secretly decided that he would ask Aji to find a few people to repair the place later, as a way of expressing his feelings.
Just looking at the quilt, Yu Qian hadn't changed his clothes because it was too painful. The clothes and flesh were stuck together, and the skin was torn. Zhu Muchen took out the golden sore medicine from his sleeve, opened the lid, and said, "You don't want to take the house that I gave to you."
, but this golden sore medicine is good for your wounds. You cannot avoid attending meetings every day. It will be much better if you take the golden sore medicine!"
This time Yu Qian did not refuse, and there was not a single servant in the house, so he let the injury go unchecked. It was really difficult to go to court tomorrow, so he could only lie on the bed, trying to take the golden sore medicine, but he did not expect that the King of Chu would personally apply the medicine to him.
, I was very moved in my heart, the golden sore medicine fell on me, and Zhu Muchen’s kindness was remembered in my heart.
After applying the golden sore medicine, Yu Qian felt that the pain was less, "Don't worry about it, King Chu. If King Chu is really feeling sorry for you, why don't you treat me to a drink? I'm still worried about your Cheng Yunong last time!"
Every time he thought of that taste, even if he didn't eat, it would still be fine. Yu Qian licked his mouth, missing it very much.
Zhu Muchen was speechless, "There is really nothing I can do about you being a drunkard. It's just that your hip is injured and you are not suitable for drinking. In two days, when your health is better, come to my palace for a drink!"
The golden sore medicine is the best. It's just a flesh wound. It can be healed in two days. Yu Qian was not polite, "Then King Chu, you must keep your promise. I will not shirk it from you. Remember this meal of yours."
Drinking!"
Perhaps it was because the emperor was angry that in the past few days, the old ministers no longer mentioned the matter of reducing the vassal vassal, but instead launched the Northern Expedition.
Even Zhu Muchen's Shenji Camp was affected. He made several trips back and forth. Fortunately, Aji and Sihu had always strictly controlled the training of the Shenji Camp, and initial results were achieved.
Yu Qian really couldn't wait two days. His wounds were better. He looked proud of the spring breeze and carried a wine gourd. When he arrived at the gate of Prince Chu's Mansion, Aji saw him. Then he led a few people with a smile and said, "The prince is already waiting inside."
I’m waiting for you, please go in quickly!”
It’s better to go to Prince Chu’s Mansion. There aren’t so many rules. After Yu Qian entered the Prince’s Mansion, he walked straight to the backyard, and the two of them drank and chatted!
"I haven't congratulated King Chu yet for winning the little prince!" Yu Qian suddenly said and took out a tiger-shaped pendant in his hand. The little prince was born in the year of tiger, and the tiger pendant added a touch of cuteness and dominance.
Zhu Muchen did not refuse and took the pendant in his hand, "I guess you made it up by filling in your salary, right?"
"What are you talking about, King Chu? The people you found a few days ago helped me renovate the courtyard and buy a tiger-shaped pendant for your little prince. Don't take it to heart!"
Now the door has been replaced with fine mahogany, and even the courtyard is paved with bluestone slabs, which will make it less muddy when it rains. The house has been renovated, and Yu Qian is very grateful!
Zhu Muchen suddenly remembered that his son had not yet been named, "I would like to trouble you with one more thing. Now that my son is born, he still doesn't have a name. I wonder if the censor can give him a name?"
The two little princesses were named by Yu Qian. Now the little princess also wants to entrust him. Yu Qian was very excited, "The King of Chu thinks so highly of me. Then tell me a name. King Chu will listen. Why don't you call me Zhu Hao?"
Burn, how about it!"
Zhu Muchen nodded, quite masculine. He liked it very much and asked Nanny Su to come over and tell the three concubines their names first.
Xu Xin was very excited when she learned the baby's name. She held the little prince in her arms and said, "Haoran, you finally have a name!"
After eating and drinking, Zhu Muchen sent Yu Qian away and went to the room to see their mother and son. Xu Xin's body was recovering well. She was nourished by the delicacies in the house, and her complexion was now recovered.
As for the little prince who was born prematurely, he has been surrounded by Aunt Su and maids these past few days, and he is being nursed back to health just like a normal child.
The next day, the court meeting was extremely tense. News came from the north. Mahamu led a pair of troops and directly killed a general from the north and captured a small town.
Although the northern defenders resisted vigorously and did not allow them to move forward, the situation became more and more serious. The three parties united into one, and they were already blocked outside the city in darkness.
The territory occupied by Binghu was probably not secure. The news that came from the news gave Zhu Di a headache, and no one in the court dared to mention the idea of reducing the vassal status.
"I am going to lead the troops to fight. Does Mr. Xia have enough money in the treasury to prepare it?"
Xia Yuanji slowly walked out and reported truthfully, "King Chu's method is good. From the day the emperor issued the order, he asked the household department to step up. Now the money in the treasury is enough to support the war, and the food and grass are fully prepared. I hope your majesty will take care of the dragon body!"
There was enough food and grass, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Zhu Di patted the dragon case and stood up, "The prince obeys the order. After I go on the expedition, you will oversee the country. Zhanji, the King of Han and the King of Zhao will follow me on the Northern Expedition!"
Zhu Di had always had high hopes for this grandson. He took him with him every time he went on an expedition, not only to gain experience, but also to help him establish prestige in the army when he was in charge of the country.
Grandpa Huang always took him with him wherever he went. Zhu Zhanji was used to it when he heard this. He bowed and saluted, "My grandson takes orders."
Zhu Gaoxu swallowed his saliva with some excitement. His father took him to the Northern Expedition. The opportunity to make meritorious deeds came again. He accepted the order truthfully, "Thank you very much, father, for your kindness. I will definitely serve you and protect your safety!"
