"You are saying that the Crown Prince and King Ji met outside the Donghua Gate, and King Ji refused to give way to the Crown Prince and entered the palace first? Please explain the details to me carefully." In the Ziguang Pavilion, Emperor Guangwu stared at the Chief of Ceremonies Bingbi with bright eyes.
Eunuch He Liang asked.
Every time he was struck by the emperor's gaze, He Liang felt like there was a mountain of stone pressing down on him. He cautiously reported: "That day, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness King Ji met outside the Donghua Gate. King Ji did not take the initiative to salute the Crown Prince.
, the Crown Prince first greeted King Ji, and then asked King Ji to go ahead. King Ji refused and entered the palace first."
"Can't you refuse? Is there such a thing that you can't refuse?" Zhu Hengjia snorted coldly.
It seems that Deng'er is obsessed with being the crown prince and wants to seize the direct heir! If this continues, I am afraid that the changes in the Xuanwu Gate of the Tang Dynasty will happen again in the Ming Dynasty! No, I will never do Li Yuan, and I will never allow them to do Li Jiancheng and
Li Shimin!

In the East Palace, Crown Prince Zhu Ruoji was chatting with Tang Zhen when he suddenly received a report that a servant was knocking on the door.
"Your Royal Highness, Long Live Grandpa has asked you to write a poem about the deep brotherhood between Prince Ji and Prince Shou of the Kingdom of Wei," the chamberlain read out the imperial order.
Zhu Ruo was stunned and asked: "Should I just write the poem by myself, or should I write one with King Ji and King Yu each?"
"Long live Grandpa, I asked you and King Ji and King Yu to each write an article."
"I understand, please step back." The servant stepped back, and Zhu Ruoji fell into deep thought. Why did the father let Gu write this poem?"
The story of the two brothers, Prince Ji and Prince Shou of the Kingdom of Wei, is a touching story. Their common father, Duke Xuan of Wei, wanted to make Prince Shou the heir apparent, and wanted to send Prince Ji as an envoy to the State of Qi, but he sent thieves to kill him on the way.
After Shou learned the news, he persuaded his brother to escape.
The young master burst into tears and said, "I fled to another country and betrayed the king's orders, so I am a traitor. If I return to the palace to question my father, I am a traitor. It's better to just go and die with a reputation as a loyal minister and a filial son." After saying this,
Master Shou said goodbye and prepared to move on. Seeing that he could not be persuaded, Master Shou took wine and food, made his brother drunk, and went on his behalf, but was killed by thieves.
After Gongzi Ji woke up, he didn't see his younger brother and hurried to the border. At this time, Gongzi Shou was dead. Gongzi Ji was so sad that he shouted: "I am Weiguo Gongzi Jiye", and he was also killed by the thieves.
This story about brothers dying together is an example of respect between brothers and sisters.
Just as Zhu Ruoji was thinking about his father's intentions, Tang Zhen came to his side: "Congratulations, Your Highness!"
"What does Master Tang mean by this? How can I be happy about it?"
Tang Zhen looked excited, "I don't think the Holy One wants you to write this gift. He actually wants King Ji to write this gift. It seems that King Ji's arrogance and domineering these days have aroused the Holy One's vigilance. He
I hope King Ji can treat you the same way that Prince Shou treated Prince Ji. It seems that the time is ripe for the two kings of Ji and Yu to establish vassal status!"
"Isolation means leaving Guan Shoufu, Guge Lao Shang to alienate the father, the second brother, and the third brother to become a vassal."
"No, Guan Shoufu, Mr. Gu Ge has a close relationship with you. They are not familiar with each other, and it is easy for the emperor to think that it is your intention, which will be self-defeating."
"Then who should I send to the hospital?"
"You can't blame Mr. Su Ge or Mr. Zheng Ge," Tang Zhen said.
When Zhu Ruoji heard that he was in trouble, Su Guansheng and Zheng Feng had always remained neutral in the battle for the right to inherit the heir. It would be a bit difficult for them to speak for themselves! He sighed and said, "This is difficult!"
"Don't worry, Your Highness, I am willing to persuade the two cabinet elders for Your Highness," Tang Zhen said with emotion.

Su Guansheng, a bachelor of Jianji Palace, is famous for his "Three Don'ts": he doesn't want an official position, he doesn't want money, and he doesn't want his life. He is very clean and honest, and the house he lives in is only slightly larger than that of ordinary people.
Tang Zhen, the right minister of the Ministry of Revenue, came to Su's house. Seeing the shabby state of the house, he couldn't help but sigh. If all the officials of the Ming Dynasty were like Mr. Su Ge, why worry about not being able to establish a peaceful and prosperous age?
When I came to the door, I respectfully handed over the greeting card, and soon an old slave came in.
The living room in Su's house is not big, and it can only seat more than ten people if it is crowded.
"Zhu Wan, it's rare for you to come to my house, but it's a rare visitor! Come and see the tea." Su Guansheng was polite and ordered his servants to serve tea. He was a noble and self-respecting man, and didn't like to form cliques. Ordinary officials who asked to see him did not see him. However,
, he had read "Qian Shu" written by Tang Zhen and thought he was a rare talent for governing the country. Because of his admiration, he made an exception and allowed him to enter his home.
The old slave served tea. A few thick green leaves were just ordinary tea leaves, not even as good as ordinary people's tea.
Tang Zhen felt more and more admiration in her heart and said with a smile: "I thought that there would be a bustling crowd in front of Mr. Ge's house, and the lower officials might not be able to see Mr. Ge. I didn't expect that there would be so many people there, so it turned out smoothly."
"Haha, Zhu Wan doesn't know anything. In my life, I hate others giving me gifts, and I don't like socializing. Those people who came to see me with various purposes disappeared. As time goes by, no one in the family cares about me. It's so bad.
"Relax", Su Guansheng laughed.
"My boss is very righteous, and I admire him. I came here this time to ask for something," Tang Zhen said.
"You have something to ask me? Zhu Wan, you should have heard of my rules. All business matters should be discussed at the Yamen, and only private matters at home can be discussed." Su Guansheng was a little unhappy. He was a man who made a clear distinction between public and private matters.
"This is a business matter. To prevent the walls from having ears, we can only discuss it at your home."
"Oh, come on, please."
"In the ancestral system of our dynasty, the emperor was granted the title of king at the age of ten and became a vassal at the age of 20. Today, the two kings of Hebei and Yu are both over 20 years old, but they are relying on the capital and refuse to join the vassal. Please ask the elders of the pavilion to ask for help.
, let the two kings of Hebei and Henan leave the capital as soon as possible and join the vassal state," Tang Zhen said loudly.
Su Guansheng was furious, and his white beard was raised in anger, "I respect Zhu Wan as a talented person, but Zhu Wan regards me as a friend? I am a man who serves the public whole and never forms any clique. No matter whether he is the crown prince or the king of Ji, he will
I don’t want to get involved. Please come back!”
"Hahaha!"
Tang Zhen laughed loudly, "Mr. Ge thinks that he does not engage in cliques, but only serves the public, and is a loyal minister. Little does he know that the world will die at the hands of a loyal minister like you!"
"Damn it, what do you mean by that?" Su Guansheng became even more angry.
"Does Mr. Ge know that the Crown Prince and King Ji met outside the Donghua Gate, and King Ji did not salute the Crown Prince, but rushed ahead of the Crown Prince?"
"Well, King Ji did something wrong in this matter."
"The Holy Lord asked the prince, the king of Ji, and the king of Yu to chant chrysanthemums in the imperial garden. Have you ever read the poems written by the king of Ji? 'When you are pregnant with this chaste and beautiful autumn frost, who knows the bravery of heroes? The mountains and rivers of Jiuzhou are all armed with soldiers and horses, and the city is covered with golden armor.
Laughing Huang Chi'. Do you think King Ji is a man willing to be inferior to others?"
As soon as these words came out, Su Guansheng fell silent.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Tang Zhen shouted: "The prince is weak in benevolence and wants the king to be strong. If both brothers stay in the capital, the disaster of Xuanwu Sect is not far away! Once the civil war breaks out, the people will be in ruins and the Ming Dynasty will be in danger! You
Back then, we followed Sheng to conquer the north and south to revive Ming Zuo. How could we bear to see the road to Ming's revival being cut off? Su Guansheng, Mr. Su Ge, if you are a loyal minister, you should go to Shu Sheng and give way to Hebei, so that the two kings of Yu can take over the vassal state as soon as possible!
If you are not a loyal minister, then stop being so arrogant and calling yourself a loyal minister!"
These words were too destructive. After hearing this, Su Guansheng sweated like rain and bowed deeply to Tang Zhen, "What Zhu Wan said is that I am mistaken for a false reputation! Tomorrow I will go to Shu Sheng and let the two kings of Hebei and Yu go to entrust the land and vassalage."
