Raid

Chapter 236
Sheng music sounded again in the palace.Ever since the crown prince's accident, the imperial city seemed to be shrouded in an invisible cloud, not to mention the sound of silk and bamboo orchestras, even laughter rarely appeared in the palace.

But today is different, Emperor Hongxing seems to be extremely happy today, since he is happy, no matter who it is, he can't disappoint.

"Uncle..." Emperor Hongxing spoke suddenly, and his eyes fell on Duke Ping.

"The minister is here..." Duke Ping was a little apprehensive.

"Uncle doesn't need to be so courteous, we are all a family, so being so courteous is a blessing." Emperor Hongxing smiled very kindly.

"Your Majesty has broken your humble minister." Ping Guogong became more humble and did not dare to show the slightest arrogance.Those present who were able to attend the banquet were not relatives of the Holy Majesty, but who really dared to only talk about relatives and friends with the Holy Majesty instead of the monarch and ministers?The Holy Majesty is being polite in saying this, if he agrees, it will be presumptuous.

Duke Pingguo felt uneasy, he didn't think it was a good omen for His Majesty's sudden "uncle".

"Today's roasted mutton is very good. I remember that Yunsong loves this meal the most. Where is Yunsong? Why didn't he come to the banquet today?" Emperor Hongxing casually picked up a piece of roasted mutton and said casually.

really.

Ping Guogong was not surprised.

My son is a jerk, but their family once had a queen, and they have the affection of the eldest son. No matter what Shen Jichuan does, the Holy One will not implicate the rest of their family. .

But he only has two sons, even if he has grandchildren, he still can't just sit back and watch his son die.The outstanding eldest son died six years ago. Although the second son is mediocre, he cannot be easily let go.He is old, how can he lose his son again and again?
But he dared not come to beg his nephew.Emperor Hongxing's ruthlessness was well known, and he would not allow anyone to override the laws of the country—at least not him.

He is the Holy Majesty's biological uncle, but among the people the Holy Majesty has killed in these years, there are uncles and brothers, which one is inferior to his uncle.

So he thought of another way, to beg his niece, the eldest princess of the court, Li Shengxi.

Although Li Shengxi was taught by Emperor Hongxing himself, the two are different. Compared to Emperor Hongxing who is ruthless, Li Shengxi is more emotional.And in these years, only Li Shengxi was able to persuade the Holy Majesty.

He couldn't leave Beijing easily, so he sent Shen Yunsong out of Beijing.

Shen Yunsong is the only son of Shen Jize, and also the grandson of Duke Pingguo. He lost his father when he was young. Shen Jichuan treated him very well, and he was friendly with his uncle and nephew.He himself didn't want to see Shen Jichuan die.What's more, he is Shen Jize's child.

If we say that in the Pingguo Duke's mansion, the most respectable person in Emperor Hongxing's place is Empress Zhaoren.Then in Li Sheng's place, Shen Jize has the most face.Let him go, is the most suitable candidate.

It's just that Duke Ping sent Shen Yunsong to Hongyin on the front foot, and Emperor Hongxing mentioned Shen Yunsong on the back foot.The deep meaning can be imagined, presumably the Holy Majesty already knew about Shen Yunsong's movements.

"Go back to the Holy Master, Yun Song has gone to Hongyin." At this point, there is no point in concealing it, it will only annoy the Holy Master.

Emperor Hongxing put the chopsticks in his hand on the bowl, he seemed a little puzzled, "Hongyin? What are you going to Hongyin for? Are you going to see Axi?"

Speaking of this, Emperor Hongxing chuckled again: "This kid, even if he wants to see Axi, why should he be in such a hurry? I will call Axi back soon, what's the rush? If you don't go, then go. Yun Songwen is weak, and he happens to be honing at the border, so let him practice under Xu Huanzhi's tent. I remember that back then, Jize was not inferior to Huanzhi's famous general."

"Your Majesty—Your Majesty, you can't, Yun Song...Yun Song is weak after all, if you let him go to Marshal Xu's tent, Marshal Xu will be too young if he is busy, but he will be too big if he delays the military aircraft." Duke Ping exclaimed, he said nervously.

This proposal, if it is normal, Ping Guogong is naturally 1000 million willing, after all, it is not a wartime, and at such a time, going to experience under Xu Huanzhi's tent is tantamount to plating a layer of gold.

But today is different.

Although the Ministry of War is currently in charge of the two servants, but he still leads the position of Minister of the Ministry of War, and he knows a little about the arrangements of the court.

The imperial court is ready to mobilize its troops, and within a year, it will definitely march north.

The eldest son was a famous general who was not inferior to Xu Huanzhi, but the eldest grandson was a frail scholar who had never been on the battlefield.Sending him to Xu Huanzhi's tent at this time is tantamount to killing him.

"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Uncle, if you hold Yunsong so tight, I'm afraid he won't be able to grow up. After all, the lintel of Pingguo's mansion will still be supported by Yunsong in the future." Emperor Hongxing had deep meaning. Said.

When he first heard that Lord Pingguo sent Shen Yunsong out of Beijing, he knew what Duke Pingguo was up to.

He wanted Shen Yunsong to pull Shen Jize's flag to coerce Axi.He dares to think too!
If there hadn't been a queen in the Duke of Pingguo's mansion, how could Duke Pingguo have been granted the title of Duke?If it weren't for Shen Jize who once sacrificed his life for the country, how could the people in Pingguo's mansion commit crimes in recent years, and how could they handle them lightly?
Shen Jichuan committed a heinous crime. He and Axi tacitly agreed that only one person of Shen Jichuan was accused. As for the others, let alone Ping Guogong and Shen Yunsong, even Shen Jichuan's own son, he could continue to give him glory and wealth.

Is the Pingguo government still not satisfied?

Shen Jichuan couldn't fill his desire, so he stepped on the law of the country and released water to smuggle.Why isn't Duke Ping like this?
Duke Pingguo was worried, his lips pursed, and he wanted to say something, but Hongxing Emperor continued: "Forget it, if you don't go, then don't go. It's just uncle, you are old, and you should enjoy your old age peacefully. I'm afraid it's hard to be safe if I only work hard for my children and grandchildren."

"Yes... I have been taught." Duke Ping knew the meaning of beating, but he relaxed a little.

Although Emperor Hongxing beat him, he didn't ask to recall Shen Yunsong.As long as Shen Yunsong can see Li Shengxi, everything might turn around.

As long as Shen Yunsong's words moved Li Shengxi, as long as Shen Jichuan's life could be spared, he really didn't ask much.

"It's all from my own family, so why should uncle be so polite? This fish soup has always been loved by my uncle, so I'll try it." After Emperor Hongxing finished speaking, he asked someone to bring the fish soup to Duke Ping.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Times have changed, and the family has not had dinner with uncle for a long time. I remember that in the past, when Auntie was here, the family had dinner together and enjoyed it happily." Emperor Hongxing seemed a little disappointed.

When mentioning his late sister, Ping Guogong was also a little stunned.

He has a good relationship with Empress Zhaoren, and occasionally had dinner with him when the Empress was around.At that time, Emperor Hongxing was not as elusive as he is now.But yes, when Queen Zhaoren passed away, Jinshang was only a 14-year-old boy.

However, the Holy Majesty mentioned the late Queen Zhaoren at this time, is it just to remember him together?
