little emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 228 Promise
Huang Jin, who had been wandering around the gate of the hall for a long time, saw Zhu Changluo, Wang An, and another eunuch who looked familiar but familiar, coming at a fast pace. He hurriedly ran over to meet her, and said in a low voice with a hint of reproach: "Prince, you are so bold, why don't you dare not listen to the emperor's words?"

Zhu Changluo was very moved by Huang Jin's kind and caring question, and took his hand: "Is the father-in-law's leg better? Can the medicine of Song Miracle Doctor still be used?"

Just a few words were heart-warming, and my heart was instantly wrapped in a ball of cotton, which was indescribably soft and warm. Huang Jin's eyes turned red in an instant: "Let His Highness worry about it, this old slave can't afford it."

"When people in the world meet, there are white heads that look like new, and others that look like old. You can afford it." Zhu Changluo nodded, with a faint sharpness in his eyes: "My father must be waiting, I'll go see you."

Originally, there were still a lot of things to say, but after seeing the calm and warm smile and calm expression on that face, Huang Jin suddenly felt that those worries before were completely superfluous. How could such a person not know what he was doing? , It seems that I am really worrying for nothing. After thinking about this, Huang Jin smiled knowingly: "Your Majesty is waiting for you in the palace, please come in, Your Highness." But he has already made up his mind, no matter what happens next, Just those few words to the prince, even if I put my life to the test, I still have to try my best to protect him comprehensively.

Without hesitation, Zhu Changluo turned around and asked Wang An and Wei Chao: "You two wait here to serve."

The two responded respectfully in unison, Huang Jin looked at the back of the prince who pushed the door in, raised his heels, and walked in. After walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped and turned around, his eyes were shining brightly, staring at Wei Chaoshi He took a few glances.

The weather is already hot in May, but I don’t know if it’s the memory sickness. Regardless of whether it’s five winters or six summers, every time Zhu Changluo comes to Qianqing Palace, Zhu Changluo’s feeling is gloomy and cold. I can’t explain where this feeling came from. Wait until I see After that familiar figure, Zhu Changluo suddenly realized that this feeling came from people and from the heart.

Before Changtiao Yu's case, Wanli was looking at something in a daze.Hearing the sound of the door, he raised his head and glanced slightly, then lowered his head, and did not answer Zhu Changluo.

Zhu Changluo didn't dare to be rude, stepped forward lightly, and turned around to ask, "Father, what can you tell me?"

Wanli still ignored him, as if there was a newly blooming peony on the table, and he was fascinated by it, completely forgetting himself.

If this side does not speak, this side will not dare to act rashly.After a long time, Zhu Changluo couldn't bear to kneel on the ground. There seemed to be countless small needles pricking his knees, and the sweat on his forehead fell on the blue bricks with a slight click sound. Wanli annoyed himself, even though it was hard, Zhu Changluo still gritted his teeth, determined not to show weakness.

Huang Jin's heart ached terribly, and as soon as he gritted his teeth, he rushed forward, "Oh, His Royal Highness is not in good health? Why is your face covered with sweat..."

Wanli, who had been pretending not to see it all this time, finally moved his face. He raised his head and took a look, and found that Zhu Changluo's face was flushed, but his eyes became more and more dazzling.

Zhu Changluo raised his face: "I have disobeyed my father's will and did not listen to your will. Instead, I relegated Li Sancai, and I am convicted."

Huang Jin glanced at the emperor quietly. According to his experience, if the emperor raised his eyebrows, it was a sign of violent anger. He blinked uneasily, and desperately thought about how he could help the prince through this time. difficulties.

Sure enough, Wanli's brows were getting higher and higher, and two groups of flames were ignited in his eyes. Looking at the son's face, he saw that the brows in his eyes still had the familiar stubbornness, and Wanli's heart was full of tears. It was anger and annoyance, mixed together into an indescribable feeling, suddenly smiled: "Get up."

It was not only Zhu Changluo who was relieved, but also Huang Jin, both of them wiped off their sweat at the same time.

Zhu Changluo fell to the ground and couldn't get up for a while. She knew that her knees were numb and bloody after kneeling for a long time, so she couldn't get up after struggling several times in a row. The hand has already been stretched out halfway, suddenly his eyes swept away, and he quickly retracted it like an electric shock, his eyes, nose, nose and heart turned into shadows again.

A hand was stretched out, Zhu Changluo quickly reached out to hold it, and then stood up with strength, rubbing his knees and complaining: "Eunuch Huang, why are you here to help me now..."

He stopped suddenly in the middle of his speech, and his surprised eyes fell on the hand that was holding him... This hand has slender fingers, and there is a feeling of hard hand, Huang Jin is so fat and fat that he can't do it anyway. With such a hand, Zhu Changluo looked up in a daze, and it was Wanli who met him with piercing eyes. The two stared at each other, and after a while, they suddenly laughed.

As if a little embarrassed, Wanli snorted, shook off his hand vigorously, pointed to a Jindun next to him and said, "Sit down and talk, I find that you are getting bolder now, and dare to ignore my intentions, do you think I With you supervising the country's governance, can you do whatever you want without looking at the emperor?"

The first half of this passage contains warmth, but the second half is filled with anger and a bit of chill.

The heart that had been put down had a tendency to be raised again. When Huang Jin was worried, he heard the prince's clear voice: "Father is angry because of Li Sancai's matter? My son has something to say."

"Ask knowingly! I'd like to hear what you can say." Wanli snorted coldly, his face clouded.He ascended the throne at the age of nineteen and took charge at the age of nineteen. From the early years of Wanli to the tenth year of Wanli, Zhang Juzheng, the chief assistant, had always firmly grasped all the power of the Ming Dynasty. Master Fu's strong control made Wanli understand the truth that only by holding power tightly in the palm of his hand can he be the real king who is superior and holds life and death in his hands.

Now that he has just given power to the prince, he dared to go against the holy will, which made Wanli, who was already in an extremely complicated mood, furious, and squinted at his son, "I want you to let Li Sancai go, you little punishment!" That's all for the big ring, why do you go against my will and demote him to be an official in Dongchang?" Suddenly the voice changed, and his face became gloomy again, "Could it be that you think that I let you supervise the country because this great person Passed it to you, can you let you do whatever you want?"

This crime is not old or young, Huang Jin was so shocked that he was sweating!At the same time, endless wonders spontaneously arise, why the father and son, who were still fine just now, seem to be unable to be in the same furnace as ice and coal, as long as they stay together, they will have to choke eight times out of ten without a few words.Seeing that the situation was going to be tense, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and come up to smooth things over: "The prince did make a mistake this time. You see, the emperor's dragon body has just improved a bit, so don't make His Majesty angry, just admit your mistake."

Wanli yelled coldly: "Old guy, get down!"

Huang Jin immediately died down, and hurriedly responded, running his legs like the wind and sprinting out the door in an instant... The movement was as fast as lightning, Zhu Changluo's eyelids on one side hadn't finished blinking, and the door on the other side was closed tightly.

This scene was weird and funny, but Zhu Changluo couldn't help laughing even though he knew it shouldn't be.

Wanli stared at him, seeing a faint light shrouded in him, outlining his whole outline delicately and softly, his eyes were even more shining like stars in the sky, looking at his warm and clean smile, he thought of the man deeply hidden in his memory. Man, Wanli's hardened heart softened inexplicably.

"Father, do you still remember that my son told you about the faction's struggle?" Zhu Changluo spoke again without waiting for Wanli to urge him again, without losing the smile on his face.

Wanli frowned: "Didn't Shen Yiguan and Shen Li follow your wishes to dismiss him and return to his hometown? Li Sancai is quite talented, and he was promoted and cultivated by me over the years. Your good ideas, let me All my painstaking efforts have been paid off!" Suddenly remembered something, his eyes became sharp and his words were like knives and guns: "What's more, Li Sancai was really wronged, don't think I don't know about Ye Xianggao, dare you say it You didn't do anything wrong?"

From the beginning to the end, until now Zhu Changluo's face changed a little, and his heart was a little startled... Even Wang An didn't know about the fact that he sent Wei Chao to look for Wu Long.But in this short half a day, it can be concluded that Wanli really knows what he has done. I have to sigh again that this emperor who has not been in court for decades in history can hold the power tightly in his hands. If there weren't some unknown and powerful means, how could he suppress those ministers who were fierce and fierce, trembling in his hands, not daring to make any changes.

But Zhu Changluo was not afraid of Wanli's questioning. Regardless of his numb knees, he stood up and knelt down: "Father only knows that Li Sancai is quite talented, but you know that his family is rich and rich like an enemy?"

The color of Wanli's face has changed: "You mean...water transport?"

Zhu Changluo said lightly: "Father guessed right. Water transportation is the lifeblood of a country. The only one that can match it is the Yanzheng. In the 19th year of Wanli, our Daming treasury received a total of 2306 million taels of silver. I don't know if it is a rumor. Li The amount of silver in the Sancai Mansion is several times this amount, and I want to ask my father, if he is not greedy... where does the money come from?"

Zhu Changluo read so many records of the ancestor emperors of the Ming Dynasty, because Ye He sneered at this, but the book is not read in vain. From all the records of the ancestors, he concluded a truth, even if the emperor is rich all over the world, He will not allow a moth to appear under his own hands. This can be seen from the various torture methods that the founding emperor Zhu Yuanzhang personally set up to punish corrupt officials.

Seeing Wanli's discoloration suddenly changed, Zhu Changluo became more calm: "More than that, my father only knows that Shen has always teamed up with Shen Li to fight against him, and we know that Li Sancai, Gu Xiancheng and others are also setting up their own sect and operating secretly in the court. Zhiguang is no less than Shen Yiguan."

Wanli couldn't help but shoot the case, and said angrily, "How dare he do that?"

As the emperor, the most fearful thing is that civil servants will seize power and self-dedicate, and generals will support their own self-respect. Once these people unite, the imperial power will be in jeopardy.Zhu Changluo's words hit Emperor Wanli deep in his heart, and from this, he thought of seeing all the obedient courtiers, carrying their own sprawling branches, and seeing themselves as baby puppets, and the anger in Wanli's heart had been completely ignited.

"If the father doesn't believe it, you can send someone to investigate and find out. If it proves to be false, the son-in-law can let the father deal with it."

Seeing Wanli's face gradually turning livid, Zhu Changluo smiled lightly and said, "Father, you don't have to be angry, you can follow the example of Bian Que when he met Cai Henggong."

"This kind of thing didn't happen in a day or two, and naturally it's impossible to expect it to be eradicated in a day or two. Fortunately, the first signs have emerged, first get rid of the culprit, and then slowly cut off their henchmen one by one. It is inevitable to force the dog to jump over the wall." His voice sounded like gold and jade, and he spoke clearly and clearly, obviously after careful consideration.

Wanli turned his head sideways, the anger on his face gradually disappeared, his expression became calm, and he suddenly laughed loudly: "Okay, you are indeed worthy of being my son, and you can use this emperor's art to perfection."

Zhu Changluo smiled slyly: "Compared with my father, my son knows that there is a big difference. Like today's matter, my son thought he was doing it secretly, but unexpectedly, my father knew it clearly without knowing it. Fortunately, my son You didn't do anything bad, otherwise, under the thunderous anger of the father, the son will only be smashed to pieces."

He obviously had a smiling face, but he pretended to be terrified and pitiful. In Wanli's eyes, he wanted to laugh, but suddenly felt sad for no reason. After the smile disappeared, his voice was apologetic, and he lowered his voice: "You Don't worry, even if you commit a heinous death crime in the future, I will forgive you once."

This sentence sounds like a joke, and Yu Wu's heart is full of infinite sincerity, but it makes Zhu Changluo's heart suddenly thump, and the emotion spreads like a rising tide, his eyes suddenly swell, and he hurriedly lowered his head: "...Father It is a golden mouth and jade teeth, and the mouth is the imperial decree, I have written down this sentence, if that day comes, I am not allowed to break my promise." The voice was full of jokes, and it was difficult to hide the choking meaning in it.

Wanli felt sore in his heart, he forced a smile and said, "I am the Son of Heaven, how could I break my promise to you, a cunning boy, take your cat urine, and get out of here." , first reached out and wiped the corners of his eyes a few times.

Suddenly remembered something, Zhu Changluo not only did not get up, but solemnly bowed to Wanli: "Father, my son has one more thing, I want to ask you for grace."

Wanli stared at him, and subconsciously raised a few ounces of vigilance and caution.

And the latter's upturned face showed a clear and clear smile without any haze.
