Chapter 848 Father and son turn against each other
The prince, grandson, Zhu Yong and more than a dozen high-ranking officials and dignitaries entered the courtyard of the Qianqing Palace and saw a few eunuchs throwing a bloody gourd-like person into the bubbling oil pot!
The man was already desperate. As soon as he got into the oil pan, he struggled violently and tried to climb out. However, the eunuch, who had been prepared, picked up an iron and wooden stick and beat him back into the pan. The same thing happened two or three times. Then I stopped struggling completely...
A smell of fried meat floated into the noses of the prince and others. This smell that was very tempting in the past made everyone's expressions change drastically, making them want to vomit... Civil servants like Hu Xan and Jian Yi, especially He directly covered his mouth and rushed to the corner to vomit. Even battle-hardened generals like Zhu Yong and Liu Sheng looked very ugly.
On the other hand, Prince Zhu Gaochi's expression remained as usual. He had just been baptized in blood and fire at the top of Zhenjiang City. The scene and smell in front of him were too ordinary...
"You are here," Zhu Di stood at the door of Qianqing Hall with his hands behind his hands, looking at the ministers coldly. These guys who were usually very trustworthy in his heart, now it seems that none of them can be trusted!
"Your Majesty!" The prince hurriedly led all the ministers to kneel down to Zhu Di.
"Well." Zhu Di glanced at Ji Gang in the oil pan for the last time, and said to everyone calmly: "You almost missed a good show. I just cleaned this guy and threw it into the oil pan to cook..."
"Your Majesty, this is..." Zhu Yong asked with a pale face.
"Ji Gang." Zhu Di said a name, and everyone couldn't help but look at the 'fried mangan' in the oil pan again. They didn't expect that Governor Ji Gang, who had been a powerful figure in the government and the public for more than ten years, would end up like this! They couldn't help but think. A sense of 'things harm their own kind'...
"Come in." Fortunately, Zhu Di didn't intend to let everyone play with the meat, so he turned around and entered the hall. The princes and ministers followed him into the hall as if they had been granted amnesty.
The four eunuchs outside the palace used their strength together to slowly close the door of the palace, without making any sound during the whole process.
As soon as the palace door was closed, the hell scene outside was no longer visible, and everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
However, the next moment, their hearts were in their throats again, and they saw four more eunuchs carrying a large box in front of everyone... Everyone present was a smart person, and they would have known that the old eunuch Zhao Ying was copying the king of Han Dynasty. In the palace, a whole box of letters between the King of Han and his officials was found.
Zhu Gaoxu and these people present, who have not known each other for more than ten or twenty years, and who have not exchanged letters with them? Sometimes, some of the words in the letters will inevitably be a little bit disgusting or over the top. This is inevitable. If the emperor is really poor I'm afraid no one here except the prince will be able to escape...
In fact, even the prince was worried because in his early years, when his relationship with Zhu Gaoxu was still intact, he once said something in a letter complaining about his father's failure to abide by the ways of being a minister and causing the whole family to rebel. If this was seen by his father, , there is definitely no good fruit to eat...
However, Zhu Di did not start from this box, but sighed and said: "Do you know why I cooked Ji Gang?!"
"..." Everyone was silent, listening to the emperor continue to speak in a deep voice: "Because this beast has messed up my country and caused great harm to my son!"
"He colluded with the Jianwen Yu Party to overthrow my empire!" Zhu Di became angrier as he spoke, and his voice became louder and louder, making people's ears buzz. "In order to achieve his goal, he could not help but secretly build weapons and train the army. He also took advantage of the privileges of Jinyiwei to place spies around the King of Han, and used the magic of nightmare to suppress my son!"
As he said that, he waved his hand, and Li Yan showed the method cloth to all the princes for circulation. Everyone took it in their hands and looked at it, and they all looked surprised... But others had no way of knowing what was behind this expression...
"Let me just say it!" After everyone had read it, Zhu Di said plausibly: "Although Zhu Gaoxu is arrogant and rude, he will never do such a treacherous and unethical thing!" He said with a somewhat relieved look: "Sure enough, it turned out to be Zhong.
If you follow Ji Gang's evil methods and become possessed by demons, you will act against common sense and human ethics!"
Who are the people present? You know the elegant meaning after listening to Xiange, and you understand Zhu Di's thoughts after listening to Zhu Di's words... Even if you say a thousand words, you still have to excuse the King of Han. Of course, to go further, in the final analysis, it is the fault of not raising a godfather.
Just excuse yourself!
"Of course, in the final analysis, it is because he himself is not upright and has a weak mind that he will be troubled by the demon." Zhu Di added another sentence. When everyone heard it, they agreed in their hearts, and even the tone was set... This is the crime of King Han.
'If the body is not upright, the mind is not strong'.?>
How embarrassing is it to see Zhu Gaoxu rebelling, occupying the capital, and killing tens of thousands of people, only to be charged with such a trivial charge? How can the national law have any dignity at all? How can the soldiers who died in peace be able to rest in peace?
?!
"Tell me what you think." Seeing that everyone was silent, Zhu Di snorted displeasedly and said: "It's too stuffy in the hall, open the door!"
The door of the palace opened silently again, and the strong smell of fried vegetables and fried meat came to the nostrils... Everyone's faces suddenly turned pale. What do you mean by this? If we don't follow your instructions, we will be killed.
Cooked too?!
"Everyone is talking," Zhu Di glanced over and saw that everyone was still shivering, so he called by name: "Jian Aiqing, please tell me your opinion."
"Yes." Jian Yi had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "The veteran agrees very much with the emperor's statement. It turns out that His Highness the King of Han is not crazy, but possessed by a demon. This also solves the last mystery in the veteran's mind." He took a look.
Yang Shiqi said: "Brother Shiqi, you are right, the King of Han is indeed not hysterical..."
Following Jian Yi's words, everyone's eyes fell on Yang Shiqi. Yang Shiqi felt a wave of sadness. In order to protect his son and for his own false reputation, Zhu Di ignored the national law and talked nonsense! One plan failed, another one was made, and he was playing tricks.
What kind of trick is it to kill the chicken to scare the monkey? It is clear that it will not give up until it achieves its goal!
For a moment, Yang Shiqi felt a little discouraged. He knew that his arms could not hold his thighs. Since the emperor had made it clear that he wanted Han Wang to pass, it was useless for him to object...
Zhu Di looked at Yang Shiqi faintly and asked coldly: "Yang Aiqing, what do you think?"
"Chen..." Yang Shiqi stood there, wanting to cry but without tears, he could only squeeze out three words from his throat: "I don't know."
"Well," Zhu Di was already very satisfied with Yang Shiqi's attitude. He turned to the others. Seeing Yang Shiqi, everyone did not dare to say anything. How could he ask for trouble? Everyone nodded in agreement, and they all said that the reason why the King of Han was
Those who are doing random things are all because they are possessed by demons. We must quickly find Master Sun of Wudang Mountain, Master Zhang of Longhu Mountain and others to kill the demons and exorcise them for the King of Han!
In the blink of an eye, everyone had finished expressing their opinions, and only the prince, grandson and father were left. Zhu Di glanced at Zhu Gaochi coldly and said, "What do you think?"
"My son..." Zhu Gaochi responded mechanically. His mind was full of the half-month in Zhenjiang City. How many soldiers died on the battlefield, how many soldiers were permanently disabled. How many families were incomplete, how many parents, wives and children stayed together every night.
Howl... Right now, with just one word from my father, I will turn these sacrifices into a joke, and let the life and death enemies of the soldiers in trouble go unpunished!
These days, Zhu Gaochi has been tossing and turning, struggling in his heart. Zhu Zhanji has also been trying to persuade him, and he also mobilized Wang Xian and others to persuade him not to be too persistent. Anyway, Zhu Gaochi will withdraw from the stage of history, which will anger the emperor.
The gains outweigh the losses... Zhu Gaochi would not fail to understand such a simple truth, but he just couldn't pass this test in his heart. He just didn't want to chill the soldiers who defended themselves with their lives...
"Gao Chi," Zhu Di urged impatiently when he saw him silent.
"I thought," Zhu Gaochi finally raised his head, looked fearlessly at his father, whom he once feared so much, and said word by word: "No matter what, my second brother caused 100,000 casualties, and even occupied the capital. These monstrous things
All major sins are unforgivable!"
"Humph!" Zhu Di didn't expect that he was already in this situation. This cowardly and useless prince actually dared to contradict him! Zhu Di's patience had long been exhausted. He especially couldn't see Zhu Gaochi contradicting him, so he snorted twice before roaring.
Said: "One slap can't make a difference! You still have the nerve to criticize others?! The second child is so rebellious, but your buttocks are clean?! Don't think I don't know what 'Zheng Burke Duan' is, what 'clique formation' is!"
"
When they heard the words "Zheng Burke Duan", Zhu Gaochi and Yang Shiqi felt as if they were struck by lightning at the same time. They did not expect that Zhu Di's ears and eyes were so sensitive that they could even hear clearly what they were discussing in the secret room!
Zhu Gaochi knelt on the ground and couldn't bow his head. Yang Shiqi also knelt on the ground and couldn't bow his head...
"Grandpa Huang, you misunderstood," Zhu Zhanji hurriedly explained to the prince: "My father means that the culprit must be severely punished! Since my second uncle is just a puppet, he cannot be regarded as the culprit."
"Then who is the culprit?!" Zhu Di asked angrily.
"Of course," Zhu Zhanji looked at the scorched man outside and said, "Ji Gang!"
"Hmph!" Zhu Di glanced at the prince kneeling on the ground and said coldly: "It's better for your son to be sensible. I think that in a hundred years, the throne will be passed directly to the great grandson!"
These words were like a thunderbolt from the blue, shaking everyone in the Qianqing Palace. Their ears were buzzing. They didn't know whether the emperor said it in anger or if he really meant it!
"Your Majesty, please take back what you just said!" Xia Yuanji, an old minister who had always been neither salty nor indifferent, was the first to wake up. He knelt down to Zhu Di and said, "This is a statement that will destroy the country and destroy the family!"
"Yes, Your Majesty," everyone finally woke up and fell to their knees, "Your Majesty, please take back these words!"
"My grandson, please take back those words!" Zhu Zhanji was stunned for a while, then woke up as if from a dream, and hurriedly knelt down, crying: "Otherwise, my grandson will have to hit his head to death..."
