Jie Jin rushed to Jinshen Hall angrily. When he saw Zhu Di, he screamed.【】
Zhu Di was the only one in the palace. He successfully exploited Zhu Di's weakness of family sadness and got the emperor's promise to let him stay in the capital. Zhu Gaoxu pretended to be exhausted from sitting for a long time and left. Zhu Di sat alone and thought for a while.
Just as he calmed down to open the memorial, Xie Jin burst in with a blushing face.
Zhu Di relied heavily on this famous talent. He looked up and saw him. He didn't care that he didn't salute in time. Instead, he showed a smile and said: "What happened? Why are you so reckless? Now you are the chief minister of the cabinet.
Your words and deeds must not be out of character."
Xie Jin didn't appreciate it, and said angrily: "The emperor issued an edict to the world, and named the emperor's second son the king of Han. The vassal state of Yunnan, why are you going back on your word and leaving him in the capital?"
Zhu Di frowned, a little displeased with his aggressive attitude, but he still patiently explained: "The King of Han was weak, and he said he was not used to the southern climate. It is true when you think about it. The original arrangement was indeed reckless on my part.
So, if you leave him in the capital now and only become an idle king, what's the hindrance?"
Xie Jin paused and said: "Your Majesty, back then the princes were fighting over each other and forming cliques in the court. The ministers had no interest in state affairs and were arguing about this all day long. Your Majesty is aware of these things. The reason why the King of Han is now vassaling Yunnan is also
How can the emperor change his mind now to avoid causing any troubles in the future and causing the country to be shaken?"
Zhu Di's expression was very helpless. Facing Jie Jin's questioning, his tone was a little weak. He explained half like discussing and half like pleading: "The King of Han is indeed seriously ill and weak. I am the emperor and my father."
, are you so ruthless as to force him to go to Yunnan and become a vassal? My dear, don’t worry, now that the crown prince’s position has been determined, and with me here, the King of Han will not dare to cause any trouble again if he stays in the capital.”
Xie Jin said angrily: "If the King of Han goes to Yunnan, his desire to fight for heirs may be dispelled. Once the King of Han is left in the capital, the King of Han will never give up and will definitely cause trouble again. The emperor is the father of the King of Han, and even more
He is the lord of the world. The emperor is first the king of men, and then the father. The affairs of the state and family affairs should be given top priority. I ask the emperor to issue an edict immediately, ordering the King of Han to vassal Yunnan!"
Zhu Di was angry. He stood up suddenly, slapped the table, and shouted angrily: "My son no longer wants to fight for power. Now he doesn't even want a vassal state. He just wants to be an idle king in the capital. You can't tolerate that."
If this is the case, after a hundred years, won't my son have no place in this world? Xie Jin, you want to follow the example of Huang Zicheng, Fang Xiaoru, don't you?!"
"I don't dare!"
Jie Jin hurriedly apologized, but then realized that he had spoken too hastily and had angered the emperor, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back.
It’s really difficult to deal with national and family affairs when they get mixed up!
※※※※※※
On the streets of Jinling, dozens of guards guarded two generals in unicorn uniforms who were walking slowly.
The man on the left is Duke Dingguo, the Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion, Xu Jingchang. The man on the right is older than him, and is also a young and heroic general. He is the Commander-in-Chief of the Five Army Governor's Mansion, named Xue Lu.
Xu Jingchang said to Xue Lu: "The Duke of Fu has grown up in Qingzhou since he was a child, and he is half Shandong. Mrs. Qi is from Pengjiazhuang, Qingzhou. This time, because the old lady of the Peng family has passed away, the Duke of Fu wants to go there to pay homage. You
I am from Qingdao. This time I am returning to my hometown to visit my relatives. I will introduce you to him and go with Duke Fu. You will not be harmed if you hitch a ride with him."
General Xue said with a smile: "Thank you very much for your kindness, Governor-General. I have admired Duke Fu for a long time. When I was in the army, I often heard the name of Duke Fu, but I have never met him."
This Xue Lu was originally from a poor family, so he did not have a famous name. In the family, if all the cousins were to pick him out and rank him, he would be Xing Liu, so everyone would call him Xue Liu. Later, when he became an official, Xue Liu listened.
It was indecent, so I chose a homophonic pronunciation and changed my name to Xue Lu. Many people may not know this Xue Lu, but when talking about a folk story, some general impressions will be made.
In old stories, there was once a story about a pregnant woman who was about to give birth. It was raining heavily. When the baby was born and cried loudly, his father heard someone talking at the door. He opened the door and saw that there were two children.
A general who was taking shelter from the rain in front of his house stood on the left and right, holding his sword, as if he was guarding the door of his house.
When a fortune teller learned about this, he said that when the child was born, two generals were guarding the door, and he would become a great weapon in the future. Later, the child was indeed made a prince by the generals, and became extremely wealthy. The baby in this story is Xue Lu.
This is an interesting story that happened to Xue Lu when he was young. He later became successful and became the only military general in Qingdao for thousands of years to be granted the title of Marquis. His descendants were rich and noble, and he was the same as the Ming Dynasty. It was said to be unattainable, so some people went through it and added it.
This incident was said to be God's will.
Most people say that the three major heroes of the Jingnan military generals are Zhang Yu, Zhu Neng, and Qiu Fu. In fact, there is another ranking in the hearts of the military generals, that is, Zhang Yu, Zhu Neng, and Xue Lu. During the Jingnan period, Xue Lu was still
He was a small soldier in Prince Yan's palace. When Zhu Di raised his army, he captured nine cities with eight hundred warriors, and he was one of them. Later, during the Battle of Zhending, Xue Lu stabbed the left deputy general Li Jian with a spear and captured him alive. He was promoted to commander due to his merits.
Things.
After that, Xue Lu followed Zhu Di in the southern and northern campaigns, rescued the Yongping Campaign, and conquered Daning, Fuyu, Huizhou, Kuanhe and other places in one fell swoop. He also defeated the imperial cavalry and was promoted to commander Tongzhi. During the attack on Datong,
, he served as a vanguard officer. In the battle of Baigou River, he led his army to pursue the imperial soldiers and horses all the way to Jinan City. In the battle of Dongchang and the battle of Hutuo River, he was at the forefront.
Later, in Shanjiaqiao, Xue Lu was captured alive. He broke free from the rope when no one was prepared, grabbed the knife and killed the guard, snatched the horse and galloped back. After that, he went to Shunde, Daming, Zhangde, Xishui Village, Dong'a, Dongping, Wen
He was the first general to achieve success in the Shang, Feihe, Xiaohe, and Lingbi battles. He also captured the imperial commander Hua Ying alive. However, because his starting point was too low, seniority had to be taken into consideration when awarding rewards. Qiu Fu was ranked
in front of him.
Xue Lu was brave and resourceful, had strict discipline, was good at caring for his soldiers, shared joys and sorrows, and was very popular in the army. Now he has been promoted to the governor of the Fifth Army Governor's Office. The fifth army governor's office is now supported by Xu Jingchang alone.
Feeling hard work, this famous general with great prestige in the army immediately became the target of Xu Jingchang's key support after he joined. This time it happened that Xue Lu was going back to his hometown to visit relatives, so Xu Jingchang deliberately arranged for him to give Xia Xun a ride, which was naturally a kind of support.
The two of them chatted and laughed and ran to Xia Xun's mansion.
※※※※※※※
In the Yang Mansion, the talented scholar Jie was like an ant on a hot pot, spinning around so much that Xia Xun's eyes were dazzled.
There is nothing to say about Xie Jin's talent and learning.
Xie Jin babbled to protest to Zhu Di, but his communication skills were a bit poor, which made Zhu Di angry. He got a shit and returned to Yuan Pavilion in despair. Xie Jin had no master and no intention to deal with government affairs.
After much thought, I ran to Xia Xun's house to ask for advice.
"Brother Gentleman, my Grand Master Jie, Mr. Pavilion Boss, can you please stop transferring?"
Jie Jin was short, and he was spinning around on the ground as if he was punching the ground, which made Xia Xun dizzy. Xia Xun couldn't help but stop him, held his chin and thought for a while, and said: "Brother Gentleman, you
Sit down and calm down! This matter, even if you say it a thousand times, it still has nothing to do with the Emperor."
Xie Jin rolled his eyes at him and said, "My lord, do you need to say this? Who doesn't know that the root cause lies with the emperor?"
Xia Xun shook his head and said: "You don't understand what I mean. We have repeatedly fallen short of success. The fundamental reason is that of the emperor's three sons, the one who loves him the most is the King of Han. Yes, in our eyes, the emperor is the emperor and the king of the world.
Lord, everything should be based on state affairs, but don’t forget, he is also a father, and the emperor is also a human being. The King of Han pretended to be pitiful to the emperor, and we seemed to have seen through his tricks at a glance, but he and I will follow
Do we have the same method?"
Xie Jin spread his hands and said, "What should we do? What do you think we should do? As long as this scourge remains in the capital, it will definitely cause trouble."
Xia Xun smiled deeply and said slowly: "Then let him make trouble!"
Jie Jin glared and said, "Leave it to him?"
"Yes, let him!"
Xia Xun looked directly at Jie Jin and said in a deep voice: "The crux of the matter lies in the emperor's heart. If the emperor is not determined for a day, this matter will not be solved. So, let him make trouble! The title of the prince has been determined, and nothing big will happen.
, there won’t be any changes. We couldn’t let him make trouble in the past, but it’s different now. Since he refuses to leave, let him make trouble. Indulge him in making trouble until the emperor is tired of it, tired of it, and feels chilled. We don’t need to
I advise you, Your Majesty, you have to find a way!"
Jie Jin understood the meaning of Xia Xun's words and began to calm down. He thought for a moment and said: "The idea seems to be a good one, but I am worried that if there is another dispute over the country..."
Xia Xun said: "The battle over the foundation of the country has been decided! The prince is right there, do you think there will be so many officials following the King of Han waving flags and shouting? Wrong, big mistake. No matter how arrogant the King of Han is now,
He is just the King of Han. With the emperor's shrewdness and the current arrangement of the cabinet and the six ministries, what tricks can he make? The more joyfully he dances, the more he looks like a clown, attracting the attention of all the officials and annoying the emperor!
"
Xie Jin was a little moved, and Xia Xun said again: "We should keep a low profile and stand still! If he wants to make trouble, let him make trouble! If necessary, help him again so that he can make trouble with all his strength!"
Xie Jin understood the idea, nodded and said: "I understand!"
At this moment, the steward of the mansion coughed at the door of the study and said, "Sir, Duke Ding is here to visit!"
★★★Everyone, Zhu Gaoxu, the King of Han, let him make trouble, but we can’t let him mess with the list! What’s the date? You can’t ask people to bite you in the back but don’t talk about it. Friends who have votes, please help me.
