my brother-in-law is the prince

Chapter 64

As soon as this remark came out, Wang Ning suddenly trembled like a thunderbolt from the blue sky. He trembled and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty... This... This is a wronged minister, Your Majesty..."

Zhu Di was furious.

But suddenly he raised his leg and kicked hard at Wang Ning who was kneeling on the ground.

boom……

This kick hit Wang Ning's left shoulder.

Wang Ning originally wanted to defend himself: "Your Majesty, don't be mistaken..."

But when the kick came, Wang Ning couldn't speak anymore. He only felt that his shoulder was in severe pain and he couldn't lift it up in one breath.

Zhu Di was furious and said: "I regard you as a close relative, trust you, marry your mother, how dare you do such a thing! Do you take me for a fool?"

Blood was overflowing from the corner of Wang Ning's mouth. Seeing that Zhu Di was like an angry lion, he still didn't know what to do. He only knew that if His Majesty continued like this, he might not be able to live. So he clutched his chest, coughed, and said, : "Your Majesty...Your Majesty...Old Minister...Old Minister...I don't know which treacherous words Your Majesty has listened to, Your Majesty...Have you forgotten...the beginning?"

Hanwang Zhu Gaoxu was terrified when he saw this, but he also knew that if he didn't stand up quickly at this time, Wang Ning might lose his life.

So he quickly knelt down, kowtowed his head like pounding garlic, and said in his mouth: "Father calm down, what is the crime of Yongchun Marquis? If Yongchun Marquis hadn't informed Father Yongchun in Nanjing, why would Father Yongchun be today? If Yongchun Marquis was wrong, Father should count the evidence of his crime in detail, and clarify the punishment. Why is there no reason to insult him like this today with an unwarranted crime? Father..."

Zhu Di turned around and glanced at Zhu Gaoxu with a very complicated look.

But Zhu Gaoxu looked righteous and awe-inspiring, as if he was complaining for the son-in-law Wang Ning.

In any case, if Wang Ning was wrong, there should be solid evidence.

Zhu Di shook his head at Zhu Gaoxu and sighed.

"Hey……"

With a sigh, the disappointment was beyond words.

He turned his head and looked at Wang Ning again: "I will ask you one last time, who spread these rumors? Is it the people or you?"

Wang Ning was so frightened that his liver and gallbladder were torn apart.

Enduring the severe pain, he raised his head tremblingly, only to see that Zhu Di was looking down at him at this moment, and those eyes that fell on him had an inexplicable taste.

Wang Ning touched Zhu Di's eyes for a while, and immediately turned away. He felt that those eyes were murderous!
It is a kind of teaching that as long as you answer a sentence wrong, you have to teach yourself to be smashed to pieces.

He shivered and opened his mouth to say something.

Zhu Di slowly pointed at Zhang Anshi, and said word by word: "Is Zhang Anshi ignorant and incompetent? What you say doesn't matter, I have the final say!"

Another bolt from the blue.

Zhu Gaochi: "..."

Zhu Gaochi looked at Zhang Anshi in surprise, with an expression of disbelief.

He never imagined that his father would defend Zhang Anshi like this.

But immediately, there was a burst of ecstasy...

And Zhu Gaoxu's complexion was like a pig's liver, he originally wanted to speak up and defend Wang Ning, but now...

Zhu Gaoxu feels wronged in his heart, he is the prince, he is the royal son of the father, for the sake of the prince's wife and brother, the father humiliated him so much, and the old son-in-law Wang Ning, this... Could it be that the father deliberately wanted to suppress him? ?

Zhu Gaoxu felt that his heart was congested in a panic, and a sullen air was stuck in his heart.

Zhu Di continued: "What kind of thing are you, Wang Ning? Is it your turn to judge right and wrong?"

Wang Ning's body trembled even more. Hearing these words, it hurt more than being kicked by Zhu Di just now, and his heart ached...

Dare to use all the organs to calculate, but in the end... the result is that he shot himself in the foot?
At this time, Zhu Di's gaze fell on Wang Ning, with coldness in his eyes, and he said, "I'll ask you again, is Zhang Anshi ignorant?"

"Sir...Sir..."

As Wang Ning became more and more panicked, Zhu Di pressed him step by step: "I'll ask you again, if Zhang Anshi is not ignorant, then...why are there such rumors?"

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..." Wang Ning burst into tears.

Zhu Di laughed even colder: "Since it's something out of nothing, let me ask again, what is the intention of the person spreading this rumor? And what kind of ulterior motives are there?"

These repeated questions have pushed Wang Ning into a corner.

When it comes to this point, any more sophistry...is death!

Wang Ning prostrated himself on the ground, kowtowed and said, "I... will die!"

"Haha..." Zhu Di laughed, and walked back to his seat slowly.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he no longer looked at Wang Ning who was kneeling at his feet, but waved to Zhang Anshi.

Zhang Anshi hurried forward.

Zhu Di said, "Sit by my side."

Zhang Anshi was resentful, just now he witnessed Zhu Di kicking Wang Ning with his own eyes, which inevitably caused a shadow in his heart.

Companion to a gentleman is like companion to a tiger, this dude is not a good person at first sight.

But Zhang Anshi's philosophy of life is to be as warm as spring to the bad guys.

After all, he is not stupid, he can't afford to mess with this kind of person.

So Zhang Anshi obediently sat on one side, leaning forward.

Zhu Di said, "Have you celebrated your birthday?"

Zhang Anshi said: "I respectfully wish Your Majesty a long life in Nanshan."

Zhu Di nodded: "What's your impression of me?"

"I said long ago that Your Majesty is my idol."

"Idol?"

"The object of my worship."

When Zhu Di heard this, he thought of something again, and couldn't help but say angrily: "Worship me..."

"No, no, no." Zhang Anshi hurriedly waved his hands and said, "Your Majesty's scriptures and martial arts..."

Zhu Di said with disgust on his face, "Why are you as virtuous as them?"

Zhu Gaochi: "..."

Yiwang Zhu: "..."

In fact, everyone's brains are still buzzing now. It is because the amount of information received in a short time is too much, and at this time, they only feel headaches.

Zhang Anshi smiled awkwardly and said: "This is the etiquette in the palace. Before I came, I have studied it for many days, just to make no mistakes when looking at the holy face."

Zhu Di was relieved, and lowered his voice and said, "After much deliberation, you are still deceiving the emperor, Zhang Anshi, hum, your lies are so easy to speak."

Zhang Anshi took a deep breath, at this point, he had to give a good reason, so he said: "I am wronged..."

After hearing this, Zhu Di became meaningful.

And Zhu Di's eyes fell on Prince Zhu Gaochi.

The prince was obese, and he still couldn't turn the corner at this time, and he still bowed to the ground, not daring to vent his breath.

Zhu Di sighed, got up, walked up to Zhu Gaochi, stretched out his hand to help him up, and said, "I have wronged you these days."

After Prince Zhu Gaochi listened, a warm current spread all over his body in an instant.

My father has three sons, but he, the eldest son, has never been favored by his father, who is known for his bravery, because of his obesity and poor health. He has always treated him like a monarch and his ministers.

Today's sentence has wronged you, maybe it means that... like Zhang Anshi, he has suffered unfair injustice and been slandered by rumors. Therefore, just this short sentence made Zhu Gaochi's eyes turn red, and he couldn't speak for a while.

Zhu Di immediately looked around and said, "Okay, let's continue eating and drinking."

All the ministers were dumbfounded, but they were all as cute as quails.

Zhu Di said: "It's my birthday today, and everyone laughed for me."

So everyone grinned and laughed.

Zhu Gaochi and Wang Ning also laughed, which was uglier than crying.

Only Zhu Di acted like no one was around, pulled Zhang Anshi aside, pointed to the dishes on the imperial table and said: "This is delicious, you can try it."

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Zhang Anshi grabbed a goose leg and ate it.

"how?"

"It's not delicious." Zhang Anshi said very bluntly.

Zhu Di said, "Why?"

Zhang Anshi said: "Your Majesty told the ministers not to deceive the emperor, so the ministers had to tell the truth."

Zhu Di shouldn't scold or praise for a while.

"Don't go around messing around in the future, you know? Don't be like Zhu Yong and Qiu Song."

Zhang Anshi looked at Zhu Di's expression, and finally made up his mind: "Your Majesty... I have a merciless request."

Zhu Di seemed to see through Zhang Anshi's thoughts at a glance, and said, "Why, do you want to intercede with those bastards?"

Zhang Anshi said: "They are very pitiful in prison. They have changed their past mistakes in prison. And..."

Zhang Anshi glanced at Zhu Di cautiously, and continued: "And the three of them... have talents of the world, and they will definitely become the pillars of the country in the future."

After Zhu Di heard this, he said disdainfully, "You still dare to bully the king until now."

"The minister speaks uprightly." Zhang Anshi went all out.

At this time, he had guessed countless identities of this old man, but he never thought that the old man was Zhu Di, and Zhu Di was the old man.

This is obviously because he has fallen into a blind spot of thinking. Zhu Di has also guessed about his countless identities, and he will never think that he is Zhang Anshi.

He, Zhang Anshi, is so righteous, and now a great opportunity is in front of him, so he has to tell his brothers what to do.

Zhang Anshi said: "Your Majesty, these three people... are indeed talents. The things they committed in the past were all for His Majesty, for His Majesty..."

When he said this, he looked around vigilantly, then skipped the rest of the words, and said directly: "I take the whole family as security..."

When Zhu Di heard this, he became impatient again, glared at him and cursed angrily: "Shut up, I'm celebrating my birthday!"

"Oh, I know, I just said what I said, and I will die." Zhang Anshi's expression calmed down.

The matter has been done, let's talk about whether it is effective, his innocence is important, after all, for the sake of his brother-in-law, he can't continue to offend this old man.

"The minister wishes His Majesty a long life!"

…………

Zhu Zhanji did not protect Zhang Anshi.

Because as soon as he entered the palace, he was carried to Empress Xu, and then... fell asleep.

So he was carefully carried out of the palace by the eunuch, and then sent to a warm sedan chair.

Zhu Gaochi was very excited. He didn't choose to ride a horse, but walked.

So Zhang Anshi also had to walk, and dozens of guards followed suit, keeping vigilance at all times.

Zhu Gaochi took Zhang Anshi's hand.

Zhang Anshi subconsciously retracted his hand.
