Daming: I can’t kill such a greedy prince-in-law?

Um! ?

Ouyang Lun was stunned when he saw Li Shanchang bowing to him.

"I say, Korean Gong, what are you doing?"

"You are not planning to use the same old tricks again, pretending to surrender first, then secretly accumulating strength, and then come to trouble me again when your strength is restored!"

Ouyang Lun waved his hand, "I've been fooled once, I won't be fooled a second time."

Ouyang Lun remembered very clearly that Li Shanchang had such a criminal record.

"Korean Prince, please leave quickly."

Seeing that Ouyang Lun did not trust him so much, Li Shanchang smiled bitterly, but when he thought that it was Ouyang Lun who spoke up today that saved him from disaster.

Li Shanchang bowed to Ouyang Lun again, "I am here to express my gratitude to the Prince Consort. I know that the Prince Consort will not believe me no matter what I say at this time."

"But let me put this on the table. If the Prince Consort gets into trouble someday, I, Li Shanchang, will definitely not add insult to injury!"

"Farewell!"

After saying this, Li Shanchang immediately turned around and left.

Forehead.
Looking at Li Shanchang's departing back, Ouyang Lun was stunned, "No, the old guy is leaving now!?"

At this time, Zhou Bao poked his head out and asked, "Master, what does Li Shanchang want to do?!"

"Just now I saw this old guy standing outside our house, and I thought he was going to do something bad again!"

“I was so scared that I didn’t dare to come out!”

"Come to thank you!" Ouyang Lun said unhappily, "You are really sick. Since you are here to thank me, you should at least bring a gift or something. This will show your sincerity!"

"As a result, this old guy said that if I get into trouble in the future, he will not add insult to injury."

"Is this something a human would say?"

Hearing this, Zhou Bao nodded repeatedly, "Master, after hearing what you said, I also think that Li Shanchang is not a decent person."

"I've heard it all outside. You, Li Shanchang, are involved in the case of the Xiang Prince's rebellion. You will most likely not be able to escape."

"But you are really great, sir, you managed to fish this old thing out."

"This old guy is an ungrateful person at first glance."

"Master, if you want to receive gifts, I will arrange it for you. Just spread the word and many people will come to our clan house with rare treasures!"

Snapped--

As soon as Zhou Bao finished speaking, Ouyang Lun slapped him on the back of the head.

Ouch!

Zhou Bao cried out in pain and quickly held the back of his head with his hands, "Master, that old man Li Shanchang made you angry, why did you hit me!"

"If not you, who should I hit? Have you finished your work at the Securities and Exchange Commission?" Ouyang Lun asked.

"No" Zhou Bao shook his head.

"Have the issues with the surrounding stores been dealt with?" Ouyang Lun asked again.

"No." Zhou Bao shook his head again.

"Then why are you still lazing around here?!" Ouyang Lun said unhappily, "If I don't beat you up, who else should I beat up?!"

Hey.

Zhou Bao showed a flattering look, "Master, although I, Zhou Bao, am already an official of the imperial court, I am still the steward of the Prince Consort!"

"The young masters and young ladies want some new toys, the ladies want some new cosmetics, and the affairs of the mansion also need my help!"

"I have to deal with these things before I can deal with other things. Nothing is more important than your matter, Master!"

Hearing Zhou Bao's words, Ouyang Lun's expression softened a little, "Have you finished dealing with everything?"

"It's done. We're just waiting for you to come back and see if you have any other instructions." Zhou Bao said hurriedly.

"Then accompany me to go fishing, and tell me about your recent work." Ouyang Lun nodded.

"Okay, I've already prepared all the fishing tools, let's go directly." Zhou Bao immediately stepped aside.

Early the next morning.

"My Lord, my Lord!"

Wang Zhong rushed in and shouted anxiously.

"Who is it? Can't you let me sleep peacefully so early in the morning?"

Ouyang Lun, wearing a loose white shirt, opened the door and walked out, just in time to meet Wang Zhong.

As soon as he saw Ouyang Lun, Wang Zhong hurriedly said, "Your Highness, please hurry up and go to the Taile Palace with me. The Emperor and His Majesty are about to fight!"

What! ?

Upon hearing the news, Ouyang Lun was stunned at first, then he immediately turned around and went into the house, packing his clothes in a moment.

"Let's go!"

Now it was Wang Zhong's turn to be stunned.

You have to know that in the past, when he came to ask Ouyang Lun to come, he had to use all kinds of means to persuade Ouyang Lun.

Wang Zhong came here today fully prepared mentally and had done many things to make sure Ouyang Lun was invited.

In the end, none of his tricks worked, and Ouyang Lun agreed, and was even more eager than him.

This is totally different from the rhythm he imagined!
"Eunuch Wang, what's wrong with you?" Ouyang Lun walked for a while and then found that Wang Zhong was still standing there in a daze, so he asked immediately.

"Weren't you very anxious just now?"

"My Lord, you never agreed so readily in the past!" Wang Zhong muttered.

"Haha, I thought it was something else!" Zhao Weiguo smiled, "I didn't want to go before because I wasn't interested, but today is different!"

"What's the difference!?" Wang Zhong asked curiously.

"Eunuch Wang, didn't you just say that the Emperor and His Majesty were about to fight?" Zhao Weiguo did not answer directly, but asked back.

"Yes! When His Majesty heard that the Emperor was going to severely punish the Prince of Xiang, he went to the Taile Palace early in the morning to ask for mercy from the Emperor. I don't know why, but they started arguing."

"This is the first time I've seen the Emperor and His Majesty like this. I wanted to go find the Empress Dowager, but she's been ill lately, and the Imperial Physician has made it clear that we can't disturb her, let alone let her work hard."

"I have no other choice but to come to you, my Lord."

After saying this, Wang Zhong looked up, only to find that Ouyang Lun had disappeared.

Only Ouyang Lun's voice was heard coming from outside the clan residence.

"Eunuch Wang, I'll go first. I'm afraid if I go too late I won't be able to see the show. You can take your time. You can even have breakfast at the clan residence!"

"Forehead"

"My Lord, please wait for me!"

Bang!

When Ouyang Lun arrived at Taile Palace, the sound of something falling was heard in the hall.

Then Zhu Yuanzhang's voice was heard.

"Do you still think I'm your father?"

"How dare you disobey me! When did you, Zhu Biao, become so bold? Ah!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Biao's voice was heard.

"Father, I dare not disobey you, but you want to execute me, the twelfth brother. I think it is too much!"

"That idiot Zhu Bo wants to rebel! He wants to rebel against you! If he succeeds, you and your children will die!" Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily, "Do you still want to plead for that rebellious son?!"

"Father, I have read my brother-in-law's memorial. My twelfth brother was instigated by that Chief Clerk Zhou Ji! His original intention was not to rebel at all!"

Zhu Biao said firmly, "Twelfth brother is worried that I will be bewitched by the traitor and want to harm my brothers!"

"You are worried that something bad might happen to me, so you started a rebellion!"

"Now that the truth has been uncovered, please forgive me this time. My brother-in-law also wrote in his memorial that he recommends that the King of Xiang go to the sea to train his troops!"

Zhu Yuanzhang roared: "Ouyang Lun, Ouyang Lun. You can't stop talking about Ouyang Lun. Are you the emperor or Ouyang Lun?"

"You even want to disobey me just for Ouyang Lun's suggestion!"

hehe--

Listening to the argument between Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao, Ouyang Lun couldn't help laughing, and said to Wang Zhong beside him: "Eunuch Wang, have they been arguing like this for the whole morning?!"

"Yeah." Wang Zhong nodded slowly.

"who!?"

"Who's outside? Come in!" Zhu Yuanzhang's voice rang out.

"Please come in, Your Majesty! You have to persuade His Majesty and the Emperor!" Wang Zhong reminded.

"Don't worry, I'm good at this!" Ouyang Lun nodded, then walked in.

In the hall, there were only Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao at the moment, and both of them were arguing with red faces.

"Your Highness Ouyang Lun pays respect to His Majesty, the Supreme Emperor!"

After saying that, Zhao Weiguo asked again: "I hope I didn't disturb you two!"

"If I am disturbing you, please tell me and I will leave immediately!"

"Brother-in-law, you've come at the perfect time. My father wants to execute my twelfth brother. Please help me persuade him!"

When Zhu Biao saw Ouyang Lun, he immediately approached him as if he had seen a savior.

"Ouyang Lun, it's useless for anyone to persuade us today! Even if it's our own son, if he rebels, it will be unforgivable!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said in a deep voice.

"In that case, I will not say anything. You two can continue."

After Ouyang Lun finished speaking, he waved his hand and stepped aside.

Um! ?

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment, then asked randomly: "When did I tell you to stop talking?"

"We just want you to stop trying to persuade him. As the consort of the Ming Dynasty and the leader of the civil and military officials, it is your duty to help us and the emperor solve problems!"

"If you can't explain yourself today, we'll start with you!"

"Don't think you're great just because you put down the rebellion. Come over here and talk!"

Forehead.
After hearing what Zhu Yuanzhang said, Ouyang Lun rolled his eyes in his heart.

Zhu Yuanzhang, this old man, is a very evil person.

If I were to act tough like Emperor Zhu Biao, I would probably end up in trouble.

After all, there is still a gap between a son-in-law and a biological son.

It seems that it is not possible to just sit back and watch the show today.

"Hey, Your Majesty, don't be so serious! I just saw you and Your Majesty arguing so fiercely, so I want everyone to calm down!"

Ouyang Lun smiled and continued, "It seems that my method is still very effective."

"I personally participated in the rebellion of the King of Xiang. I would say this is just a complete farce."

"I know the King of Xiang well. He has a simple mind and really has no idea about the throne. Moreover, the King of Xiang is the most sentimental person among all the princes!"

"If it weren't for Zhou Ji's instigation, this would never have happened!"

"Of course, it is a fact that the King of Xiang rebelled. This has touched the bottom line of the imperial court, so the imperial court must make some statement. Otherwise, if all the princes follow the example of the King of Xiang in the future, then the world will be in chaos."

After hearing what Ouyang Lun said, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao both nodded in agreement.

"Ouyang Lun, the emperor and I know all this, so say something useful!" Zhu Yuanzhang urged in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, I know you are anxious, but please don't be anxious and listen to what I have to say slowly." Ouyang Lun said slowly.

"."Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Your Majesty, please have someone bring you a cup of tea! Talking like this will hurt your throat!" Ouyang Lun said.

"." Zhu Yuanzhang's face became even gloomier, but he himself was also thirsty, so he immediately ordered, "Wang Zhong, go prepare tea."

"Yes." Wang Zhong was worried for Ouyang Lun. The only one who dared to ask for tea at this time was probably Ouyang Lun.

The tea was served soon.

Ouyang Lun picked up the tea and took a sip happily, "Good tea!"

"Okay, now I can tell you. If you delay any longer, I'll have you thrown out!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said unhappily.

"Yes, yes, I actually still suggest that the King of Xiang go to the sea to train the navy. The King of Xiang's name contains the character 'water', so he must have a connection with water!"

"Transferring the Prince of Xiang away from his fiefdom is also a punishment for him. If other princes have the idea of ​​rebellion in the future, they will have to think carefully!"

"Of course, this alone is not enough. There are also the troops in the Xiang Kingdom!" Ouyang Lun continued: "Only by properly handling these rebellious troops can we completely quell this rebellion and ensure that the same problem will not occur again in the future."

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, "What do you think we should do with these rebel troops? Just kill them all?"

"Of course we don't need to kill them all. We just need to send an outstanding general to lead them."

Ouyang Lun said.

"Excellent general, do you want us to choose one from the Huaixi Party generals? And then let the Huaixi Party rebel again?!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was quite displeased. He did not trust the Huaixi Party generals very much and had been constantly reducing their military power. Now he was giving them more military power, which was naturally not acceptable.

"Nowadays, our Ming Dynasty is full of talented people. It's not just the Huaixi Party that has generals. I think Li Jinglong is very suitable!"

Ouyang Lun spread his hands.

At this time, Li Jinglong was in his twenties. His nickname was Jiujiang and he was from Xuyi. He loved reading since he was a child, was well versed in poetry and allusions, and had a handsome and tall appearance.

He had left the capital many times to train troops in Huguang, Shaanxi and Henan, and was also in charge of the horse trade in the Western Fan Market, accumulating a certain amount of military and political experience.

He and Xu Huizu can be said to be the best among the second generation of Ming generals.

"Li Jinglong? You actually said that his father Li Wenzhong is not from the Huaixi Party?!" Zhu Yuanzhang rolled his eyes at Ouyang Lun.

"Your Majesty, it is true that Li Jinglong is a descendant of Huaixi, but he is not a member of the Huaixi Party. I believe you know this better than I do!"

"The cause of the Ming Dynasty will be handed over to the young people sooner or later!"

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang did not refute. He thought for a moment and nodded slowly, "Go, call Li Jinglong for us!"

"Yes." Wang Zhong immediately went to call someone.

Not long after, Wang Zhong and Li Jinglong hurried over.

"Your Majesty, Li Jinglong pays homage to the Emperor!"

After Li Jinglong finished his greetings, he turned to Ouyang Lun and said, "Please send this to Prince Consort Ouyang!"

The younger generation of the Ming Dynasty all had respect for Ouyang Lun.

"Li Jinglong, let me ask you, what do you think of the rebellion of the Prince of Xiang!" (End of this chapter)
