Fu Changzong understood, and said again: "King Lu is not feeling well recently, chatted with the minister yesterday, he has plans to serve as an official for the elderly."

Zhu Xu narrowed his eyes, and a sneer curled up at the corner of his mouth.

King Lu has been the Zongzheng of the clan's mansion for many years. He thought that he could be like King Ping, guarding one side and being at ease, but Zhu Xu seems to have forgotten him these few years.Talking to Fu Changzong this time is mostly a kind of "complaint".

Fu Changzong could also guess what King Lu was thinking, and said: "Your Majesty, if King Lu insists on leaving, there will be no suitable person to take over in the clan."

The clan of the Ming Dynasty had long been torn and withered by Zhu Xu, and there was almost no one who was worthy of a term. The King Jin was ambitious, but his ability was not good, and no one favored him.

Zhu Xu groaned, then looked at Fu Changzong again, suppressed his thoughts and didn't say anything, and said: "Ignore him for now, you can go to Prince Ping's mansion later and ask him to treat the clan in Beijing to a meal. The relevant regulations of the clan, especially the appointment, dismissal, management, supervision, etc. of the relevant positions in the clan mansion, should be coordinated and reported to the cabinet."

Fu Changzong only thought it was beating King Lu, so he should claim it.

The two talked a lot, until the motorcade left the Donghua Gate, Zhu Xu said: "Let my elder brother make a revision of the development plan of the Royal Bank for the next few years, revise it, be more generous, and focus on the whole world. , don't focus on the immediate, but look in the long run, and don't just look for money, sometimes, the benefits don't stop at the amount of money..."

Fu Changzong listened carefully, and after writing it down, he said: "Yes, I have written it down."

Zhu Xu nodded and explained a few more words before letting Fu Changzong get out of the carriage.

Zhang Yun looked at the little guy sleeping soundly in his arms, and said, "Your Majesty, do you want to send Xie'er to Ye'er and the others' car?"

Zhu Ciye and the others were already five or six years old, and the little ones were in a separate carriage.

Zhu Xu listened attentively, and could hear the noises of a few little fellows. He shook his head and said, "Forget it, it hasn't stopped after passing by. Put it among us, and we'll sleep for a while. It's not far from Chengde." away."

Zhang Yun pursed his lips and smiled, "Okay."

The two lay down, put the little guy between them, and each put a hand on his belly.

The almost one-year-old little guy pouted his mouth, tilted his head, and continued to sleep soundly.

The convoy left the Forbidden City, left the capital, and headed south all the way to Jiangxi.

The two thousand elite soldiers of the imperial army stood in front of each other, Cao Bianjiao in silver armor rode a tall horse, and walked not far from Zhu Xu's carriage.

Opposite him, next to the carriages of Zhu Ciye's little fellows, was Su Yinyin who was also in silver armor, pretty and glamorous, holding a long spear, heroic.

Zhu Xu's summer vacation has long been revealed, and everyone in the capital and even the whole of Ming Dynasty is well known.

The common people on the road watched and talked one after another.

"The emperor is going to escape the summer heat, this is my first time in Ming Dynasty, right?"

"Yeah, let me tell you, this capital city is getting hotter and hotter, so you really should go out and avoid it. I heard that several people in the east of the city have died from the heat, and the corpses were only found because they smelled bad."

"When will the weather be so bad? Qin Tianjian posted a notice a few days ago, saying that it will be hotter for a while. It is said that it will reach 42 degrees. Let us try not to go out..."

"Yeah, it hasn't rained this year. If it doesn't rain again, people will definitely die..."

The common people had a lot of rational discussions, and even more cynicism.

"Heh, going out of Beijing to escape the summer heat, this is the first time in the world. Our emperor, His Majesty, is really precious. He ran all the way to escape the summer heat..."

"It's not just him who is hot, he ran out, what should the others do? Follow the example, no wonder my Ming Dynasty's officialdom is getting worse day by day..."

"Hey, it's easy to say, but I don't know how much people's fat and people's cream will be wasted. Have you heard? The emperor's summer vacation, there are thousands of people accompanying him, not to mention the preparations in Chengde. This trip, At least a few million taels of silver went out..."

"Is it such a big sum? It would be great if it was used to help the victims of disasters. Hey, the emperor has no virtue, and the court is incompetent. What hope does Daming have..."

……

No amount of harsh words can stop Zhu Xu from leaving the capital.The convoy traveled south along the official road without any hurry.

Zhu Xu sometimes stopped and sometimes accelerated, inspecting the people's livelihood in various places along the road.

Nanchang Mansion, on the Little Qinhuai River, a painting boat looks ordinary among the many boats.

Zhu Zonghan was sitting in the boat, turning the teacup in front of him, his always stiff face was full of contemplation.

A middle-aged man was kneeling beside him, and said in a rather eager tone: "Master, this is a god-given opportunity. As long as we use it properly and make Jingzheng believe that Cao Wenzhao is rebelling, he will definitely kill Cao Bianjiao and his wife. As long as we If you tell them in advance, you can use their hands to kill the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. At that time, the Ming Dynasty will definitely be disrupted, and Dorgon's [-] soldiers will march to the north. Our restoration of the country is just around the corner..."

Zhu Zonghan's face fluctuated meaninglessly, and he was still turning the teacup slowly.

The middle-aged man seemed to feel that Zhu Zonghan was easy to move, and said: "Master, I am working as a staff officer with Hong Chengchou now, and I can imitate his notes. When he arrives in Henan, Hong Chengchou's rebellious letter to Cao Wenzhao will fall into the competition." With a little planning in hand, Jingzheng will definitely die!"

Zhu Zonghan raised his head and glanced at this person. This person was from the mansion of Daishan at that time, and he was a Han.

Zhu Zonghan picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, "I know Jing Zheng better than you. You can't kill him with such a small trick. Besides, I don't want to kill him either."

The middle-aged man was stunned, and said: "Master, you must not be kind to women. I know that Jingzheng treats you well, but the hatred of subjugation is irreconcilable. Do you want to just watch Dorgon's only remaining If that little person disappears, will there be no Jurchen anymore in the world?"

Zhu Zonghan frowned, and said: "You go, I know this matter well, you must not act rashly without my order, and, although Hong Chengchou is lustful, he is also corrupt. He will be imprisoned for a few years. Luo Yangxing's handles, small things are okay, but Hong Chengchou dare not do such things as rebellion."

The middle-aged man has been planning for a long time, and naturally Zhu Zonghan can't dispel it with a few words, and said impatiently: "Master, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you miss this time, it will be extremely difficult to kill Jingzheng next time." , the life and death of the Jurchen clan is in your thoughts, you must not be Guan Yu of Huarong Dao..."

Zhu Zonghan frowned again, and said: "I have my own plan, go ahead, tell those people, don't act rashly, no one knows Jing Zheng better than me, he said this time to escape the summer, there must be other purposes, we can't be Hugging the grass and beating the rabbit, it was solved easily."

The middle-aged man said that his mouth was dry, seeing Zhu Zonghan's indifference, he could only get up resentfully, turned around and got off the flower boat, and left quickly.

After the middle-aged man left, a painting boat approached quietly, and a stout man with a cloak walked in.

Zhu Zonghan didn't seem to notice, drinking tea silently, staring at the table in a daze.

The stout man came in, sat down opposite Zhu Zonghan, took off his cloak, and revealed an old, weathered face.

This person is over 50 years old, with prominent corners and sharp eyes, which can vaguely see the sharpness of his youth.

——Daishan!

This person who was supposed to be in Nanannan actually appeared in Nanchang Mansion, meeting Zhu Zonghan!

Daishan picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, "Why, did you hesitate?"

Zhu Zonghan looked up at him, and continued to look at the table silently.His expression was stiff, and it was difficult for outsiders to see anything from his face.

Daishan came here, and said: "I came here, just want to know, what did Da Khan say to you, and what explanation do you have? Don't worry, we don't have any thoughts about Jingzheng. Do you want to kill Xiangliu or someone else? Whatever you want is an internal matter for your enlightened people.”

Zhu Zonghan raised his head and said, "I didn't say anything, I just said that the Jurchen hoped not to be in the northeast, but in the southeast."

"Jurchen hopes to be in the southeast?" Dai Shan frowned as he listened to Zhu Zonghan's words, lost in thought.

They all knew that the emperor of Ming Dynasty put them in Nanannan, clearly to drive away wolves and tigers, and let them play the vanguard to fight for Ming Dynasty.

It's a diabolical plot to drain them of every last bit of value.

It is obviously a trap, how can it be hope?
