my brother-in-law is the prince

Chapter 65 Uncle I Will Protect You

Zhu Gaochi smiled: "An Shi, have you forgotten? When you were young in Beiping, it was Ben Gong who led you to wander around the Shizi Mansion. At that time, you were timid, but you have grown up , I don’t want to get closer to Ben Gong.”

The corner of Zhang Anshi's mouth subconsciously evoked a smile, which was a warm feeling.

Zhu Gaochi continued: "I didn't expect my father to appreciate you so much. It's strange to say that you are so bold, and my father still protects you everywhere. It seems that I am worrying too much. What I like is not just you. Father's favor lies in your ability to stay calm and never teach your elder sister to worry, when I go back and tell your elder sister the news, she will be so happy that she won't be able to sleep."

Under the moon, Zhang Anshi stepped on his own shadow and walked slowly, lowering his head, and said softly, "Brother-in-law."

"Ok?"

"Only my brother-in-law and elder sister are the best to me in the world. I must share my worries for my brother-in-law. I will help my brother-in-law."

"Well……"

"Brother-in-law doesn't believe it?"

"What I think is how to take care of you..."

Behind the two of them, the soft sedan chair swayed, and Zhu Zhanji, who was lying in the wide soft sedan chair, was still sleeping soundly with his legs crossed.

There were still smears of saliva on his lips. At this time, his small eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and he muttered: "Grandfather, Grandpa, don't kill uncle, don't kill... kill... uncle... Lazy, greedy, and...he also likes to lie and do all kinds of bad things, but...he has no ability...he is also Sun Chen's uncle...Grandfather, don't...Don't be afraid, uncle...I will protect you of…"

Yigulu turned over, the snoring sound remained the same.

That man is Zheng Heng, and Zheng Heng is the emperor?

Zhang Anshi, who returned home, suffered from insomnia.

It was too scary, and he carefully stroked the details of the relationship between himself and the emperor.

Zhang Anshi thought carefully and was terrified.

Damn... There is no sentence that says not to beheaded.

If you just pick one out, you will be hacked into pieces, right?

Zhang Anshi was horrified, accompanying the king was like accompanying a tiger, it was too scary, the old man could still live for 20 years in history.

So when he couldn't sleep, Zhang Anshi suddenly figured it out.

I'm afraid he's a bird, anyway, it's already like this, so let's do what we like.

So I could finally relax and fall asleep.

And at this time in the palace.

Zhu Di was slightly drunk, and was supported back to the bedroom.

Empress Xu smiled and said, "Your Majesty doesn't even have time to see the emperor's grandson today!"

"what……"

"The concubines and female relatives held a small banquet in the palace, but they don't know how His Majesty is doing in Wenhua Palace. Today is the day of His Majesty's longevity. His Majesty must be overjoyed."

"Well……"

Empress Xu said again: "Is Your Majesty drunk?"

"Um……"

Zhu Di lay down, he was a little drunk, but he couldn't sleep.

Reviewing the few meetings with Zhang Anshi carefully, his teeth itch suddenly with hatred, every word this kid said deserves to be killed.

But after thinking about it carefully, this kid's talent, as well as... that shrewdness, that kind of ingenuity, makes people like him.

This is like me!
When I was young, Huang Kao always thought that I was the smartest among all the princes.

Thinking about it this way, my mood calmed down a little, and after a while, Zhu Di's snoring sound came out.

The next day...

Yang Shiqi arrived at Zhang's house.

He saluted Zhang Anshi first, and Zhang Anshi warmly entertained him.

"Your Majesty, you don't need to entertain me. I heard that in the palace... Your Majesty is very fond of you, so I'm here to congratulate you." Yang Shiqi said seriously.

Zhang Anshi said: "It's thanks to Shi Yang's teaching, without Mr. Yang, I don't know how to deal with it."

Yang Shiqi blushed.

What happened last night has already been spread out.

What Qin King circled the pillar, what swore to kill the whole family, but His Majesty seemed to be possessed by a demon, so he didn't pursue it. It seemed that this son was quite a holy family.

Isn't this the hell?
Yang Shiqi said: "Young master, please don't say that. This is all self-taught, and has nothing to do with Yang."

"What are these words?" Zhang Anshi said: "If it wasn't for Yang Shi's precepts and deeds, how could there be Zhang Anshi now?"

Yang Shiqi's face turned green when he heard this, and he murmured, not knowing what to say.

"Oh, waiter Yang, can't you come in and sit down?"

"I'm here to see Mr. Zhang. Now that Mr. Yang has met the saint, Yang is relieved. From then on, he still needs to go to the Imperial Academy every day on duty. I'm afraid he won't be able to come here often."

Zhang Anshi couldn't help but sighed: "That's right, it's a pity, I hope I can study with Yang Shi in the future."

Yang Shiqi blushed again.

As long as Zhang Anshi doesn't feel embarrassed about this kind of thing, then Yang Shiqi is the one who is embarrassed.

Yang Shiqi had no choice but to cough and said, "Okay, let's not live today."

Zhang Anshi said: "I'll send Shi Yang to talk."

After sending it to the middle gate, Yang Shiqi did not forget to ask: "Young Master Zhang, you must remember that you must be modest and cautious. You are a relative of the state, and many people are staring at you."

Zhang Anshi said: "Thank you for your teaching, is there anything else Yang Shidao has to explain?"

Yang Shiqi twitched for a moment: "Don't always mention the old man teaching you to study in the future, it's not good to always talk about it."

Zhang Anshi didn't think much about it, and said, "Oh."

…………

But at this time, the shock in Zhu Di's heart has not passed.

Early in the morning, the king of Han came to admit his mistake, saying that he and his son-in-law Wang Ning should not provoke the emperor's unhappiness at the birthday banquet.

After all, this is his own son. Although Zhu Di looked unhappy on the surface, he still said: "How is Wang Ning now?"

"Healing at home, the injury is severe."

Zhu Di just nodded: "Teach the imperial physician to take a look."

After hearing this, King Zhu Gaoxu of the Han Dynasty suddenly felt that he was doing well again. It seemed that his father still had feelings for him and Wang Ning.

So he said: "Father, didn't you say that Guo Degan has great medical skills? My son heard that he had rejuvenated his hands, not to mention that he saved his mother. My son is very grateful to him. If my father can invite him to come to the son-in-law There's nothing better than healing."

Zhu Di looked at Zhu Gaoxu with the eyes of an idiot, and opened his mouth to say something, but Zhu Gaoxu was very excited.

Yeah, why am I so stupid?
These days, my father has been talking about Guo Degan all the time. From this point of view, the person my father admires most is that Guo Degan.

Now the emperor seems to like that Zhang Anshi very much, now he must have a hole card in his hand, for example... to win over Guo Degan?

"Father, my ministers yearn for Guo Degan, not to mention that he has the kindness to save his mother to his sons and ministers. Such a great kindness and virtue are hard to repay in three lives..."

But Zhu Di interrupted him: "That's enough, Wang Ning will live if he can live, and die if he can't live, save a bird."

Zhu Gaoxu: "..."

"Okay, I still have to act as an agent for major affairs in the world, so I will step down."

Zhu Gaoxu was unhappy, he really couldn't figure out his father's thoughts, it seems...it's better not to provoke his father these days, but he had to find a way to investigate that expert named Guo Degan carefully, if this person If it can be used by him, then his great cause of Tang Taizong will be multiplied with half the effort.

However, he was thick-skinned and still refused to leave, just standing there begging for nothing.

Zhu Di was angry in his heart, but there was nothing he could do about it.

Most of the people in the old Zhu's family, except for that evildoer Jianwen, still dote on their sons very much, and they always have a concept of heirs like an old farmer.

Zhu Di said to the eunuch beside him, "I call the minister to see you."

The eunuch left in a hurry, and after a while, Yao Guangxiao, Xie Jin, and Yang Rong who were waiting for the imperial edict came to see him.

After saluting, Zhu Di pointed to the memorial on the desk and said, "Why hasn't the catastrophe in Songjiang and Suzhou ended so far? On the contrary, it's getting worse?"

Xie Jin stood up and said: "Your Majesty, there are priorities. Now the food escorted to Songjiang and other places has run out. Rice in Songjiang area is expensive. It is really difficult for the imperial court to provide relief. In addition, Your Majesty is building a parallel world in the North." , the cost is countless, Quanzhou and other places have to build ships, and His Majesty is training the army..."

Zhu Di showed displeasure: "Do you mean that... I spend too much money?"

Xie Jin hurriedly said, "I never think so."

Zhu Di said: "I heard that Jiangxi is ripe this year. Can we collect grain from Jiangxi this year to relieve the siege of Su and Song?"

Xie Jin said decisively: "Your Majesty, you can't. The gentry and people in Jiangxi are already in dire straits. If more food is collected... I'm afraid it will stir up a civil uprising."

Zhu Di patted the case slowly with his hands, he had his own plans, and said: "What I mean is that the gentry in Jiangxi are asked to donate money and food to relieve the urgent need. The army, the people and the common people are in distress, so will those gentry and landlords still be in trouble? The right is to borrow grain, and in the coming year Song, Su and other places will be ripe, and I will return it myself."

After Xie Jin heard this, he was a little anxious. This is not going to happen. Which minister is not from Jiangxi in Yongle Dynasty?Among the seven cabinet ministers in the Yongle Dynasty, five were from Jiangxi, and among the six ministers, among the eighteen ministers and ministers, most of them were from Jiangxi.

His Majesty said that he borrowed food from Jiangxi, but the implication was that he borrowed food from the ministers.

Several cabinet ministers, you look at me, I look at you, a little dumbfounded, very embarrassed, this Zhu Laosi is a bit shameless.

So everyone's eyes fell on Xie Jin again. Obviously, Xie Jin is the chief assistant of the cabinet, you Xie Jin must withstand the pressure.

Xie Jin also knew that at this time, he had to deal with it, so he said: "Your Majesty, in recent years...disasters have been frequent. According to what I have heard, scholars, farmers, businessmen, and businessmen are struggling. I have heard that... recently There are many wealthy households in Nanjing City, and I heard that... Marquis of Wu'an, Zheng Heng, has a lot of money... Your Majesty... Even if you borrow food from Jiangxi, it is too far away to save the fire. Why don't you wait here from the Marquis of Wu'an and go first. How about borrowing some?"

After hearing this, Zhu Di was furious.

Xie Jin was obviously an excuse, meaning that he wanted to start borrowing from Marquis Wu'an first, and Marquis Wu'an didn't even borrow, so they would join in the fun.

As for the Marquis of Wu'an, Zhu Di thought he was a generous person in the past, but how could he think that this person has changed now, and he no longer knows him.
