First Prince of Ming Dynasty

Li Wenzhong said silently, there are pure warriors among the nobles, but there are also many who are greedy for money and good fortune. If you want to achieve your goal, you must make friends with civil servants.

It seems that His Majesty intends to elevate Ying Guogong, just to guard Xu Shuai and him in the capital, the chief governor's mansion. After the two leaders of the largest party in the army are transferred from the capital, they can use a more stable method. Solve a group of honorable generals.

After all, the two of them couldn't help themselves in the temple. As the leader of martial arts, they had to protect the generals under his command. This was bound to violate the laws of the court. If they didn't protect them, how could they make the rest of the generals feel at ease.

There are not many people under Duke Ying's command, and some of them have been fighting outside all year round, and there is no stain on them, so Duke Ying is the most suitable candidate for the position.

Li Wenzhong glanced at Zhu Biao, the emperor is the emperor of the world, and the prince is also the prince of the world, knowing that the Eastern Palace family is about to suffer heavy losses, is he still relentless? As expected of His Highness the Crown Prince, his mind is far beyond that of ordinary people.

Zhu Biao thought for a while and said: You should also be crowned king.

Li Wenzhong, who was still thinking in a daze that he should keep those direct descendants, responded casually, then reacted abruptly, stood up hastily and said: I am terrified, I am unworthy of virtue to be granted the title of duke by heaven, how dare you? He wants to.

Zhu Biao waved his hand and asked him to sit down: My cousin is a relative of the emperor, and it is a matter of course that he is enfeoffed by the country, not to mention he has made great military achievements. Now that Changsha King Li Shanchang has retired, there are only two kings left in the court. Cousin should make up for it.

Li Wenzhong calmed down and sat down. He really didn't want to be king anymore. The duke of the country is already prominent, and he is a relative of the emperor. The Li family will have the same contract with the country in the future, which is enough to be rich and noble. The honor of the king is Misfortune is not blessing.

Li Wenzhong took a big sip of tea and said: Your Highness, don't scare me. It's not bad for me to be crowned king after death. I don't dare to expect extravagantly when I'm alive.

Zhu Biao nodded in satisfaction: Cousin don't need to think too much, as long as the original intention remains the same, the rest of the father and the palace have their own arrangements, there is frequent restlessness in Wala, and the military supplies have already been delivered there. Cousin is ready Get ready, King Kaiping guards the frontiers, and you have to complete the task of going deep into the grasslands to balance the ministries.

As soon as Li Wenzhong heard it, he knew that the matter had been settled, and this credit was waiting for him to make it. Afterwards, based on his status and merit, he became the king, thought for a while and said in a deep voice: I hope the child is stupid and ruthless, and there will be no disasters or difficulties. When it comes to Gongqing, I hope His Highness will make it happen.

Zhu Biao nodded: Wang Jue is not a hereditary successor at all. Cao Guogong's mansion rests with the country. This is a matter of course. Cousin doesn't need to think about it.

After they finished talking, the two talked a few more words, Zhu Biao was about to leave for the palace, and everyone in the Li family sent them out respectfully, and Li Wenzhong ordered the guards of the Duke's Palace to escort them all the way. Stand up.

Zhao shi heaved a sigh of relief and said with a smile: Your Highness is really gentle and courteous, and I'm afraid I won't entertain you well.

Li Wenzhong patted Li Jinglong's little head next to him and told them to go back to study. Mrs. Zhao saw her husband's serious expression and asked, But what difficult matter did His Highness order?

Li Wenzhong shook his head and said: The palace intends to designate me as a nobleman in Wang Zhiheng's army, and there may be more far-reaching plans.

Mrs. Zhao was quite pleasantly surprised when she heard that she was a boudoir woman, and the only one who could brag about her status was her own husband. Who in Beijing would not envy her, Mrs. Cao Guogong.

But when she heard the back, Mrs. Zhao suddenly remembered the stories she had heard before, and Jiaorong turned pale: Isn't it because you want to use the master to scare the chickens and monkeys? It is said that Tang Shuai, the king of Dongou, was like this a few years ago. He was first crowned king and then punished. Ye is a relative of the emperor, the effect is probably better than Tang Shuai...

Li Wenzhong covered his head and sighed, ready to go back to the room to think about it, but Zhao Shi was about to cry, and followed Li Wenzhong's buttocks to ask questions again and again.

Zhu Biao sits in the car and looks at the dragon pattern wandering on the top. It seems to come alive with the shaking of the carriage. Every time Zhu Biao looks at it, he will have another experience. Traditional Chinese painting emphasizes meaning but not shape. It's all very dull and stupid, but it's not interesting after watching it for a long time.

Li Wenzhong's title of king is actually just a trivial matter. After all, they will become dukes again in the next generation, and the most important thing is that they don't have actual fiefdoms.

What Zhu Biao cares about now is only honors. Li Wenzhong and Xu Da leave the capital. Fu Youde is the only military leader in the capital. Corrupt butcher knives, nobles must quickly get rid of the responsibility, or find another thick thigh.

Presumably Hu Weiyong will not let go of this opportunity. He is Li Shanchang's student. He has seen Li Shanchang go to a glorious and stable return. He must know that Li Shanchang relies on his status among civil servants and the support of many Huaixi nobles behind him.

Zhu Biao looked away from the swimming dragon pattern. There is another reason why Li Shanchang can retreat safely, that is, the deep friendship between him and Zhu Yuanzhang, and Li Shanchang's willingness to retire in the prime of life. It is the key, other people don't even have Liu Bowen, let alone Hu Weiyong.

Zhu Biao silently calculated that even if Hu Weiyong took action, some of the heinous nobles would not escape death, especially those who guarded the place and oppressed the good. The entire Xungui group should reduce its staff by 20 to 30%. It was a major blow.

After this incident, Hu Weiyong really gained momentum, Wang Guangyang was about to be demoted from Beijing, and Fu Youde had no appeal. In addition to this excessive praise, he was bound to be rejected by Xu Da, Chang Yuchun and others. The remaining Hu Weiyong was born in Huaixi, the era of Hu Xiangguo had begun, and the father and son could finally rest.

Last night, the westerly wind withered the green trees, and I went up to the tall building alone, looking at the end of the world.

After driving back to Zhu Biao, he didn't go to see his father. After returning directly to the East Palace, he sent Liu Jin to see how Guiyi Hou Mingsheng's family was settling down. It was the Marquis who was conferred on him personally.

Liu Jin left as promised, while Nuan Yu and the others waited on Zhu Biao to take off his heavy court clothes. It was really hot, and the ice mirror in the room kept emitting a coolness, which couldn't withstand the hotter weather outside.

I have to say that in this era, summer is really hot and winter is really cold. The characteristics of the two seasons are very obvious. I ordered the eunuch to put some more ice mirrors, and then went to the soft couch to lie down. Nuanyu sat beside him obediently and slowly Slowly fan the small palace fan with fragrance.

Zhu Biao lay quietly with his eyes closed for a while, and the entire East Palace suddenly stopped. Even the croaking of cicadas and frogs from outside suddenly disappeared. The prince wanted to rest, and no one could disturb him.
