my brother-in-law is the prince

Chapter 189
After hearing this, Chen Li looked aggrieved.

"Aren't you afraid of being humbled by that Ji Gang? That Ji Gang... is proud now. Lord Hou, we can't fall behind others."

Zhang Anshi calmly said: "Don't worry, there should be the latest news from Zhu Jin's side. Right now, just keep an eye on King Ning. This King Ning has come to the capital... But it's a big deal, he is so ostentatious, and now it's the world Everyone knows, never do it lightly, if not, you can't afford it."

Chen Lidao: "Yes, humble, I understand."

Zhang Anshi said again: "From now on, His Highness King Ning will report any actions at any time."

"Yes."

Zhang Anshi sat down, and suddenly thought of something, and said: "Our Governor Ji must be watched, I want to know his every move."

Chen Lidao: "Master Hou, Ji Gang also sent a lot of cavalry in Qixia... In fact, there is no need for Master Hou to order, I have already stared at him to death."

Zhang Anshi said: "He will find out."

"We will definitely find out." Chen Lidao: "It can't be hidden, but it doesn't matter if you find out. Nowadays, everyone is watching each other, it's just a tacit understanding."

Zhang Anshi sighed: "Hey, they are all Jin Yiwei, they are a family, why are they so guarded against each other?"

Chen Li: "..."

Zhang Anshi said: "But he dared to stare at me, so it can be seen that this guy can't tolerate people. If he is his mother, I will kill him sooner or later."

Chen Li understood: "You humble understand."

"What do you understand?"

"Hou Ye wants to kill him, that is, he wants to kill him. All the people in our inner thousand households are at odds with Ji Gang, that bastard."

Zhang Anshi smiled and said: "Chen Qianhu is also a talent, if he can enter the palace, he will definitely have great development in the future."

Chen Li: "..."

…………

Ning Wang Zhu Quan arrived at Shaojiashan.

This place is the only way to go to Beijing.

However, from here to Xiaoling, it is only a short effort.

Zhu Quan did not enter Nanjing immediately, but turned to Xiaoling.

The Minister of Rites who greeted him was a little anxious, so he found Zhu Quan and said, "Your Highness, Your Majesty is eagerly looking forward to seeing you."

Zhu Quan began to wipe his tears: "The mausoleum of Huang Kao is only a few steps away. This kindness has supported this king's own father. Now... this king has finally returned to Beijing. How can he not enter the Xiaoling Mausoleum? If so, how can he be a human being?" son?"

That's it for this matter.

The minister had nothing to say.

Because filial piety is righteousness, you can't let Zhu Quan not even worship Huang Kao.

So... Zhu Quan immediately entered the Xiaoling Mausoleum, first went to the Xiangdian to offer sacrifices, and then went to the Peidian to weep loudly.

Crying to the point of sadness, an eunuch came in on tiptoe and said, "Your Highness...inside and outside Xiaoling Mausoleum...a lot of cavalry have come."

Zhu Quan said with emotion: "Brothers can't be compatible now, this is the fourth brother who wants to kill the king, the emperor's test is alive in the sky, I don't know what to think?"

The eunuch whispered: "Do you want to go to Beijing immediately?"

Zhu Quan said: "This king misses the emperor too much and is exhausted physically and mentally."

The eunuch said: "I'm afraid His Majesty will be angry."

Zhu Quan said: "Whether I stay here or not, I will be angry. Do you think the fourth brother has any good intentions? He will definitely harm me... If I go to Nanjing, I will fall into a trap."

The eunuch was silent.

Zhu Quan said: "This king wants to bathe here, worship Huang Kao day and night, and tell his followers to let them rest here. As for the minions inside and outside, don't pay attention to them. I don't believe they dare to take people here."

With that said, he ignored the others and went to Xiangdian again.

…………

"His Majesty……"

Zhu Di looked at Yi Shiha who hurried in.

Yishiha found out that Ji Gang was already standing in the corner.

But before Yi Shiha could continue, Zhu Di said, "I already know the matter."

Zhu Di's face was very embarrassed: "What does he want to do? Want to use the father to suppress me? Do you think I can't do anything to him? Didn't he see the end of the acting king?"

For Zhu Quan, Zhu Di was extremely angry.

Perhaps Zhu Di still has a bit of brotherly affection for the acting king Zhu Gui.

This is because Zhu Di knew that Zhu Gui was just a jerk, a brainless person who would be fooled by people around him casually.

But... Zhu Quan is completely different, you know, he is good at planning.

A man with ulterior motives and an exquisite heart, not to mention colluding with ministers, and maybe even colluding with the Tatars.

Such a person is truly unpredictable, Zhu Di strictly guards against him, and is an unforgivable existence.

At this time, Zhu Di's face was gloomy, and his anger became more and more obvious: "He also brought his princess and two sons. What is he going to do? This is to make everyone in the world look at him. Can't I help him? Father came to bully me, he is so bold, he doesn't know how to live or die."

Ji Gang stood in the corner, still not saying a word.

Yi Shiha said: "How about...wait and see?"

Zhu Di said with a sullen face, frowning: "I can't wait any longer. His followers have been alarmed at this moment. If we continue to delay like this, even if we catch him, his followers... I'm afraid they will..."

Yishiha reminded: "But...there is Xiaoling Mausoleum after all."

"Yes." Zhu Di showed a bit of irritability, he walked slowly to the window with his hands behind his back, and said word by word: "If the father knows that my brother and I have reached the point of fighting each other, I will definitely feel sad .”

"I was thinking...if my father also encountered something like this, how would he deal with it? Will he tolerate...will brothers have different ambitions? I inherit the foundation of my ancestors, and I will inherit the great rule. The country and the country are the most important."

Yi Shiha immediately fell silent.

But Ji Gang, who had been standing silently in the corner, said at this moment: "Your Majesty, Jin Yiwei and Neiqianhusuo are all staring at Xiaoling to death."

"Hmm..." Zhu Di responded.

Ji Gang said again: "There is no movement at Neiqianhusuo."

Zhu Di nodded: "Of course I know."

Ji Gang said: "Then I will leave."

"Go." Zhu Di said.

Ji Gang resigned and went out.

Zhu Di's expression was normal.

Yi Shiha carefully poured tea for Zhu Di, and then said: "Your Majesty, why don't you... slaves go and give His Majesty an order to let His Highness King Ning enter the capital as soon as possible?"

Zhu Di looked at him with a strange look and said, "No need, someone will take care of it."

For a moment, Yi Shi seemed to understand something.

He glanced towards the gate of the palace, and the gate of the palace, Ji Gang's back, had long since disappeared.

Yi Shiha said: "This servant is stupid, now I understand."

Zhu Di sighed: "I bear the destiny of heaven, up to the country, down to the thousands of people. The burden is so heavy. How can I live up to the expectations of my ancestors because of a mere cunning trick."

As soon as he flicked his sleeves, his gentle face was as frosty in an instant.

Yishiha only felt the bone-chilling chill, and didn't dare to say another word.

…………

Ji Gang went to Xiaoling personally.

Those who came with him were all his confidantes.

The accompanying scribes followed Ji Gang cautiously.

As soon as Ji Gang appeared, Tiqi who turned into an eunuch rushed to greet him and saluted.

Ji Gang said directly: "Where is King Ning?"

"I just came out of Xiangdian and went to the side hall to rest."

Ji Gang nodded, and suddenly lowered his voice, "How many people are there in Neiqianhu?"

"Thirteen were found."

"Can you do anything?"

"Like the lowly ones, they are only responsible for stalking, and they dare not act rashly."

Ji Gang nodded: "Understood, let's go down."

"Yes."

Immediately, Ji Gang began to follow the Shinto path to the depths of the cemetery.

This Shinto... only the emperor and Ming clansmen are allowed to walk during funerals and sacrifices.

As for Ji Gang, he could only walk along the shoulder of the road.

All the way into Xiangdian, Ji Gang pressed the handle of the knife at his waist, and winked at the few confidants behind him.

The confidant knew it, and one person pushed the door directly.

There is no door bolt in the side hall, so the door can be opened with a push.

Immediately afterwards, several people appeared at the gate of the palace.

And in the side hall, Zhu Quan was wearing a python robe, sitting here, staring at the door of the hall, sitting on the chair, without saying a word.

Ji Gang stepped forward, saluted and said: "The commander of the humble Jin Yiwei, Ji Gang, has seen His Highness."

Zhu Quan sneered, "Interesting."

Ji Gang stood up and quietly pressed the handle of the knife.

"I don't know Your Highness, what do you think is interesting?"

Zhu Quan said: "The imperial examination is here, do you dare to come?"

Ji Gang said: "I have no choice but to come here because I am humbled to ride the world."

Zhu Quan said: "You followed His Majesty's order?"

Ji Gang shook his head: "Your Majesty loves his brother, how could he come to such a place to arrest someone?"

Zhu Quan took a deep look at Ji Gang, and suddenly laughed loudly: "Hahaha...don't you be afraid...to become Chengji?"

This Chengji is an allusion.

Sima Zhao's heart was well known to passers-by. Cao Mao, the puppet emperor of Wei State, was outraged and led hundreds of servants in the palace to attack Sima Zhao.Jia Chong, Sima Zhao's confidant, led troops to block Cao Mao, and the two sides fought in melee.

And when Cao Mao, the emperor of Wei, brandished his sword to command, no one dared to step forward.

At this time, Jia Chong said to Cheng Ji, Sima Gong raised you just for today, why don't you start?

Therefore, Cheng Ji stepped forward and stabbed Cao Mao with a halberd. The blade of the halberd pierced through the back, and Cao Mao was killed on the spot.

Killing the emperor in the street was absolutely unprecedented at that time.

After this incident, Sima Zhao also thought that the matter was too bad, so he killed Cheng Ji, claiming that it was Cheng Ji's own initiative.

Zhu Quan satirized Ji Gang as Cheng Ji, implying that you, Ji Gang, dared to arrest the son of Emperor Gaozu in Xiaoling, wouldn't you be afraid that your Majesty would take the blame afterward?

Ji Gang's face moved slightly, he obviously knew the allusion.

But he still pressed the handle of the knife on his waist, staring at Zhu Quan: "Maybe I am Jia Chong?"

After hearing this, Zhu Quan laughed again.

Jia Chong and Cheng Ji killed the emperor of Wei together, but the fate of the two was very different. Jia Chong became the first-class minister of the Jin Dynasty, an extremely human minister, but Cheng Ji was torn into pieces .

"What courage." Zhu Quan said, "You really deserve to be His Majesty's minion."

Ji Gang shook his head and said: "It's not a minion, it's just His Majesty's dog. Please move your Majesty."

Zhu Quan still sat there without moving a muscle, and said in his mouth: "What if this king refuses?"

Ji Gang was expressionless, and only smiled coldly: "Come...bring it up."

After a while, I saw several school captains escorting Concubine Ning and the child in his arms.

A concubine of King Ning screamed, "Your Highness... save us..."

But Ji Gang turned around suddenly and raised his hand quickly.

Then, there was a snap.

A slap knocked the little concubine to the ground, the concubine screamed and passed out directly.

Ji Gang turned around and looked back at Zhu Quan. Seeing that Zhu Quan was furious, he said with a grinning smile, "Your Highness, please respect yourself!"

Zhu Quan glared at him angrily, and said angrily, "You dog slave, how dare you bully the master!"

Ji Gang said calmly, "Of course I am a dog, but I am not His Highness's dog."

Zhu Quan said: "That's very good. If that's the case, then I might as well follow the King of Xiang."

The so-called imitation of the king of Hunan means that when Emperor Jianwen cut down the vassal, he wanted to punish the king of Hunan. The king of Xiang couldn't bear the humiliation. In order to preserve his reputation, he set himself on fire with his whole family and died.

Ji Gang still remained calm and said: "Your Highness is good at planning, but he is not the King of Xiang. I will say the last word, Your Highness, please come to Beijing!"

Zhu Quan's face turned red with anger, and he said angrily, "Okay, what a dog, whatever, whatever."

Ji Gang pressed the knife, turned sideways, and gave way to a path: "Your Highness, please go first, humble."

Zhu Quan took a deep breath, and smiled miserably: "I never expected... I never expected... This king's one mistake, actually fell to the point of being bullied by a villain."

…………

"Lord Hou, Lord Hou..."

Chen Li stumbled towards him, he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

When Chen Li arrived in front of Zhang Anshi, he immediately said anxiously: "Prince Ning has entered the capital, and he was captured by Ji Gang himself. Hey... We suffered a loss this time, and let him take the lead."

Zhang Anshi said in surprise: "This Ji Gang is ruthless enough."

Really tough.

At least Zhang Anshi didn't dare to do this. Just kidding, he is the future emperor's wife and brother, and he might even be the future emperor's own uncle.

But Ji Gang still did it without any psychological burden.

This man has gone to the point of desperation in order to make meritorious service.

Chen Lidao: "I also heard... Beizhen Fusi sent a large number of cavalry to Nanchang Mansion...I'm afraid that Nanchang Mansion will also do something."

Zhang Anshi put his hands behind his back, as if he had everything in his chest, he said: "Don't worry, don't worry, we have to strike later."

"We have too few people in the Thousand Households Office. I'm afraid we can't take care of the Nanchang Mansion... I knew this before, so I simply fought hard. I followed the example of Ji Gang and went to 'invite' King Ning. Otherwise, why would I let you Difficult."

Zhang Anshi said, "Where's that bastard Zhu Jin?"

"he……"

Zhang Anshi said: "Wait for him..."

It is a lie to say that he is not in a hurry. He caught a big fish with great difficulty and watched him being cut off. Even if Zhang Anshi is kind-hearted, he can't stand it.

Waited for more than an hour.

Zhu Jin finally came here out of breath: "Master Hou, Lord Hou... Please see..."

Zhu Jin quickly sent a stack of notebooks to Zhang Anshi.

Zhang Anshi lowered his head and looked carefully. The more he looked... the more frightened he became, and he couldn't help but say, "Damn..."

He kept flipping through, faster and faster, the more shocking he looked.

Zhang Anshi said in surprise: "No way, no way, these people... unexpectedly... actually..."

Zhu Jin rushed to see Zhang Anshi, sweating profusely at this time, but he still gasped and said, "Master Hou, after seeing it, I also feel that it is extraordinary, so I hurriedly sent it to you, Master Hou."

Zhang Anshi continued to read, his body could not help but tremble: "Fucking into his mother, ruthless, ruthless enough!"

Chen Li was confused: "Master Hou, here is..."

Zhang Anshi waved his hands, and said with a sullen face: "It's too late to explain to you now, the matter is very important, and I need to go to the palace immediately to report. Prepare the horse for me. Forget it. I can't ride well, so I won't pretend to be aggressive. Prepare for me." car."

After walking a few steps, he remembered something again, and said, "Call my brothers and tell them... get ready for me to obey orders at any time."

"Here."

………………

Wenyuan Pavilion.

A scribe quickly entered Xie Jin's public room.

The scribe whispered something in Xie Jin's ear quietly.

"Really?" Xie Jin showed disbelief.

Immediately, he said coldly: "Rites collapse and joy breaks!"

He only said these four words, and he lowered his head as if nothing happened, and continued to draw up tickets.

Suddenly, he thought of something, and told the clerk: "I have a word, you bring it to His Highness King Zhao..."

"Please excuse me."

Xie Jin lowered his voice and gave some instructions. After the scribe listened carefully, he left quietly.

……

"His Majesty……"

Yishiha hurried over, bowed down and said: "His Royal Highness Ning is here."

Zhu Di had a good time, he knelt and sat behind the imperial case, this is a remote small hall, Zhu Di seemed to know that King Ning was coming, so he deliberately chose this place.

Compared with Yi Shiha who showed a little bit of anxiety, Zhu Di seemed more calm. He took a sip of tea calmly and said, "Didn't you disturb Huang Kao?"

Yishiha said: "Probably not."

Zhu Di nodded: "Ji Gang...is really useful."

He spoke without continuing.

I also lost my understanding, so I tiptoed out.

Immediately, King Ning Zhu Quan was in front, Ji Gang and several Han generals were behind, seemingly respectful on the surface, but in fact they almost escorted King Ning Zhu Quan into the palace.

Zhu Quan's face was livid, and he didn't salute when he stepped into the back of the hall.

But Zhu Di stood up, laughed and said, "Are you here?"

Zhu Quan looked up at Zhu Di, and said, "Your Majesty, you don't have to do this. My brother has been insulted so much, and I owe it all to you. Why should you do this? My brother knows that his death is approaching, and now there is nothing to say." Said, please Your Majesty, immediately execute your younger brother to death."

Zhu Di suddenly pulled down his face: "Since you are so rude, then... well, I also have a debt, and I want to settle it with you!"

Zhu Di said that if he turned his face, he would turn his face.

Zhu Quan seemed to have come to realize the reality at this time.

I saw Zhu Di angrily said: "You have an affair with Chen Ying, is there something wrong?"

Zhu Quan didn't answer.

Zhu Di said: "Do you, Zhu Quan, dare to act or not?"

"I'm not a prisoner, so it's okay to make friends with others?" Zhu Quan said: "Your Majesty may be too domineering."

Zhu Di was even angrier: "You still want to quibble? I already know what you did. If you obediently pleaded guilty in front of me, I could still forgive you, but now, you are still stubborn. It's very good!"

Zhu Quan said: "In the future, Your Majesty will enter the city of Nanjing. Although I will lend troops to Your Majesty, I also know that there are no two days and no two masters. I beg Your Majesty for mercy. I just want to be a rich man. It doesn't matter. But I Begging for mercy, so what? In the end, even Daning couldn’t stay any longer, and rushed to Nanchang Mansion like a bereaved dog? Even in Nanchang Mansion, how could he have a peaceful life? A lackey like Ji Gang, what day is wrong? I, Zhu Quan, take strict precautions? Like you, I am a descendant of Emperor Taizu Gao, and now you are the Ninth Five-Year Lord, high above you, but what is the difference between me, Zhu Quan, and a prisoner?"

The more Zhu Quan spoke, the more excited he became. He glared at Zhu Di, and said loudly: "Now that His Majesty has mentioned the matter of colluding with Chen Ying...don't you find it ridiculous?"

Zhu Di looked at him coldly and said, "Do you dare to rebel against me?"

Zhu Quan said: "I just wish I couldn't succeed."

Zhu Di suddenly stopped being angry, but looked at Zhu Quan with calm eyes: "Among all the princes, you had the best relationship with me."

Zhu Quan said: "I'm just blind. How could I know that you look like this?"

Zhu Di nodded: "I bear the foundation of my ancestors, and sometimes I have to."

Zhu Quan said: "It is Zhu Yunqi who bears the foundation of our ancestors..."

As soon as this statement comes out...

Zhu Di's expression changed suddenly.

He desperately suppressed his anger, and then looked at Zhu Quan with a strange look in his eyes and said, "You are exhausted, and you have finally come to the capital. I am afraid that you are tired, so stop talking nonsense, Ji Gang... please go to rest, King Ning." .”

Ji Gang understood, at this moment, he looked at King Ning with some satisfaction in his heart.

"Where does Your Majesty want you to rest?" Zhu Quan seemed to have calmed down a little.

Zhu Di said: "There are some things that Ji Gang needs to ask clearly. There is a good place in the imperial prison. This place... will be cleaned up, and you will never be wronged."

Zhu Quan was trembling all over. He closed his eyes, opened them suddenly, and then stared at Zhu Di with disdain and a sneer on his face.

Zhu Di said again: "Don't worry, you brought your family this time, and I will let them settle in Honglu Temple. It is still a prince's gift."

Zhu Quan trembled and said: "Forget it, it's only to blame... the winner and the loser!"

He said, just about to leave.

At this time, Ji Gang looked at Zhu Di.

Zhu Di glanced at him from the corner of his eye.

In this peripheral vision, there is no trace of anger.

Suddenly, Ji Gang seemed to understand Zhu Di's intentions, and said with a smile, "Your Highness... please."

Zhu Quan said: "Why don't you put the king in shackles, can there be a prison cart?"

Ji Gang didn't speak.

At this moment, a eunuch rushed over and said, "Your Majesty... Marquis Annan, please see me!"

This statement came out.

Zhu Di's face softened slightly.

But Ji Gang's complexion quickly darkened.

That guy... wants to claim credit again?
Zhu Di said, "Where is the man?"

"It's just outside the hall."

Zhu Di took a deep breath, calmed down, and said, "Call me in."

After a while, Zhang Anshi entered the hall, saluted and said, "I have seen Your Majesty."

Immediately, Zhang Anshi saw Zhu Quan, and said with a smile: "This is His Highness King Ning, I have seen His Highness King Ning."

King Ning Zhu Quan knew Zhang Anshi more or less. He knew that Zhang Anshi, like Ji Gang, was nothing more than a falcon of Jin Yiwei, so he just sneered at it.

Zhu Di said: "Zhang Qing came just in time. In this case, Qing and Xie Qing will be tried together."

Zhang Anshi said: "I came here for one thing only."

"What's the matter?"

Zhang Anshi said: "I have found an important clue, this rebellious party... all in one go, right in front of my eyes."

Ji Gang said: "Isn't this important clue right in front of us?"

Ji Gang glanced at Zhu Quan.

Zhang Anshi said: "His Royal Highness King Ning... is just a shield for them."

"..."

As soon as this statement comes out...

The hall suddenly fell silent.

Ji Gang suddenly couldn't hold back anymore.

Then, he couldn't bear it any more, and said: "No, this is absolutely impossible, King Ning...even himself...knows that there is no forgiveness for sins, let alone...and..."

Zhang Anshi ignored Ji Gang at all, but looked at Zhu Di who was stunned, and continued: "Your Majesty, this matter is very complicated. It's a long story. I also racked my brains and searched for countless data and evidence. Found it. Whether His Majesty is a minister, report immediately."

Zhu Di said, "Say it."

Zhang Anshi took a deep breath and said, "Because the matter is too complicated, Your Majesty...can you...let me clear my mind first."

Zhu Di said: "Okay, I can wait for a while."

Zhang Anshi pondered for a long time before saying, "All of this... starts with these rebels."

He paused: "Or, His Majesty, just take it as a story and listen to him as a story."

Ji Gang felt that something was wrong.

As soon as this guy started making up stories, he felt a little flustered.

He looked at Zhu Di, then at Zhang Anshi, his palms were sweating.

Zhang Anshi immediately said: "After Xu Wen's incident happened, a group of people... realized... that the imperial court must start to investigate, and, as long as the imperial court persists in the investigation, there will be no traces of what they did, so . . . they must die to survive."

Zhu Di listened attentively.

But Zhu Quan's face was serious, and he looked at Zhang Anshi coldly.

He was far away in Nanchang Mansion, and had heard all kinds of rumors about Zhang Anshi. Of course, he couldn't have any good impression.

Yishiha was most interested at this time, smiling, looking at Zhang Anshi with a half-smile.

Zhang Anshi said: "But...how can the court stop the investigation?"

Zhu Di was thoughtful: "Unless the court finds out the truth?"

Zhang Anshi said: "That's right, your Majesty is really smart. I am far inferior to your Majesty in this regard. No wonder my brother-in-law has been telling me that anyone can deceive anyone in this world, but your Majesty alone must not deceive you, because Your Majesty is not only the brother-in-law and the elder of the courtiers, but also because your majesty has sharp eyes and is extremely intelligent, no one in this world can escape your majesty's piercing eyes."

Zhu Di twitched his face: "At this time, don't say these things."

Zhang Anshi resentfully said: "I just express my feelings, I really can't help it, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

"Your Majesty is right. Only when the court finds out the truth, can this matter... be enough. But... how are they willing to let the court find out the truth. So... at this time...these people arranged a Yizhen It's also a fake conspiracy."

"In this conspiracy, they first... used Chen Ying."

"Chen Ying?" Zhu Di stared at Zhang Anshi, "You mean, Chen Ying was wronged?"

Ji Gang: "..."

To be honest... If Chen Ying is wronged, then Ji Gang will really find a piece of tofu and kill him. After all... some of Chen Ying's current organs have already been sliced ​​by Ji Gang.

Zhang Anshi shook his head, and said: "No, this is where these people are smart. They know that if they only rely on being wronged, it is impossible to convince His Majesty that Chen Ying is involved in rebellion. This Chen Ying is not wronged at all. He What you did... is really no different from conspiracy."

…………

I recommend a similar traditional historical text in the early Ming Dynasty, "Da Ming: I Fight the World with Zhu Di". The IQ is all online, and people who watch it want to know how the protagonist can kill Zhu Di at his peak without being poisonous or cheating. I recommend everyone to watch it, haha.
