I want to be a grandson

Chapter 229 The Conspiracy

Chapter 229 The Conspiracy

Qi Tai hurriedly said modestly: "There are two lords of the Shangshu, and a small official named Yuanwailang, how dare to presume, please let the lords announce."

Ren Hengtai said: "The reason why the Bureau of Science and Technology was able to re-admit this time is really the credit of His Royal Highness King Wu. His Highness is in charge of the household department, and you are Yuanwailang of the household department. Naturally, Lord Qi was invited to announce on behalf of His Highness."

Yang Jing, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishments, also said: "Yes, Lord Qi, you are representing His Royal Highness King Wu here, and you should announce it."

Qi Tai quickly waved his hands and said: "Don't dare, how can a subordinate official represent His Royal Highness King Wu..."

Although Qi Tai is modest, how could Ren Hengtai and Yang Jing not know that he is His Royal Highness King Wu!
So the two invited each other again, but Qi Tai couldn't refuse, so he had to agree.

Looking at the eager eyes of each candidate, Qi Tai announced: "Candidates! This imperial examination will re-admit [-] scholars. I hope that the scholars who are lucky enough to be admitted can serve the court faithfully, take care of the people of Ming Dynasty, and repay His Majesty the Emperor." God's grace is mighty!"

"If there are candidates who regret not being on the list, please continue to work hard. You must know that the grand mystery of the sage's way is difficult for me to understand even if I spend my whole life... So I should cultivate my heart and read poetry outside... Now, start list!"

When a list was posted in front of the gate of the Gongyuan, the candidates from the north and the south gave out warm cheers!
"Oh, I passed the exam! I passed the exam!"

"I also passed the exam! Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Your Highness, King Wu!"

"Thank you His Highness King Wu for your great kindness! Let me be on the list!..."

"congratulations!"

"Happy with joy..."

On this list, [-] candidates were still admitted. This was originally agreed, and the imperial court will definitely not change the order overnight.

It's just that among the [-] candidates admitted, ten from the north and south each.

Because of the previous lessons, candidates are also very concerned about the admission ratio.

When they saw that the candidates from the north and the south each took ten candidates, the candidates from the north and the south had nothing to say.

Because for northern candidates, according to the past practice, they can only be ranked five or six on the list.

Now it's on the top ten of the list, accounting for half of the list. What else is there to be dissatisfied with?
For the candidates in the south, this time they were used because these simulated chaotic parties provoked troubles, and they were said that the examiners favored themselves,

Those examiners have all been arrested, and they will all be beheaded to show the public according to the chaotic party,
However, His Majesty still did not pursue the matter, so that the southern candidates were not implicated, and still accounted for half of the list.
Under such circumstances, even if they understand that His Majesty intends to take care of the northern scholars, the southern candidates can accept it.

And be grateful!

……

At the same time, another piece of news was being spread quietly.

As a village around the capital, it is easy for people to have an illusion of darkness under the lights.

Because whether it is the government or the Jinyiwei, the focus of their attention is only within the capital, and no one thinks that someone will cause trouble in the surrounding area.

And often at this time, something bad will happen!

At this time, during the slack season, some people in the village were finally able to relax and sit together to bask in the sun and chat.

But as we chattered, the topic became more and more sensitive...

"Have you heard that the crown prince has a son who is not filial? The crown prince doesn't even like him..."

"Where did you hear that? How can people in the palace be disrespectful?"

"I heard about it when I went to Wang Village two days ago. It was said that the prince was disobedient since he was a child. He didn't know how to take care of the prince when he was sick. He was having fun all day long. He didn't look like a son of man..."

"Who else is the king of Wu named by the emperor? I don't know what happened. He is obviously an unfilial grandson. How can he still be named king?"

"Who says it's not? I've been bad since I was a child. I don't study and I'm obedient. It's said that the prince was pissed to death by him..."

"It is said that when the prince was seriously ill, he still cursed the prince..."

"..."

There is a way that fools can be deceived.

As long as there is a little gossip, it can influence the opinions and thoughts of the people.

Sometimes they don't know what is true and what is false, and they don't have the ability to do so, and they don't even have the thought to be cautious in words and deeds or to make a judgment.

Just follow what others say!

So when rumors about the emperor's grandson's unfilial piety surfaced, they spread quietly among the common people and spread extremely quickly...

Good things don't go out, bad things pass thousands of miles.

And this is still a bad thing about the royal family, the people are more interested in talking about it, and they are more interested in talking about it...

Even six or seven hundred years later, a discord among a certain royal family who has lost all rights can quickly become the headlines and cause public outcry!

Not to mention in this era where everyone is in awe of imperial power!
If something happens to the royal family, the impact on the common people will be far greater than that of later generations!
And this kind of shock and shock is sometimes beyond the imagination of future generations!
As the rumors spread, it was like a bloodthirsty beast opening its mouth!
……

Zhu Yunqi felt very depressed now.

Even said a little angry!
There is also a strong sense of humiliation...

Because he heard that his mother gave the dowry to His Royal Highness King Wu!
If it was before, it would be fine to give him something, and it would be a pity for his pity.

But by giving him something now, he was begging him for mercy!
This is unacceptable to Zhu Yunqi!

Especially when my own mother suffered such humiliation!
But when he came to the East Palace and wanted to meet his mother, the Crown Princess Lu shut him out and did not meet him at all.

Zhu Yunqi didn't understand why his mother did this.

After drinking away the eunuchs and maids, Zhu Yunqi stood outside through the door and asked, "Mother, please let the child in, the child has something to ask the mother."

Mrs. Lu stood in the room through the door, sighed softly, and said, "You go back, your grandpa asked you to chant scriptures and pray for blessings. You can't see women, so don't make your grandpa angry."

Hearing this, Zhu Yunqi felt a little sad.

Because the purpose of Zhu Yuanzhang asking him to chant scriptures and pray for blessings is not to let him make friends with courtiers.

This is tantamount to cutting off the idea of ​​being a grandson!

By this time, Zhu Yunqi had no enthusiasm for chanting sutras and praying for blessings...

Although I feel uncomfortable and wronged, I can't say these words.

"In this case, the child will talk to his mother through the door... Mother, why did you give him the dowry?"

Seeing that there was no echo from inside, Zhu Yunwen went on to say: "Mother, even if the child did not do well enough and something went wrong, the emperor will not punish him too severely, so mother does not need to worry too much, and there is no harm at all. You must show him your favor!"

Lu said with relief: "Yun Wen, you're overthinking. After all, I'm also the princess of the Eastern Palace. There's no reason for a mother to show her kindness to her son..."

"I just saw that Yunxi often contacts the courtiers, and the household department has a lot of affairs, so I rewarded him with some things and asked him to give them to his subordinates, that's all.

You are the mother's son, and he is also the prince's son. My mother can't let others say that I favor one person over another. "

Now Zhu Yunqi didn't believe such words at all, "Mother, don't lie to my son, my son knows that you are worried about me, but there is really no need for mother to do this..."

Mrs. Lu hurriedly said: "Shut up! You can't say such a thing again! It's okay if people hear it and spread it! You remember, no matter what happens in the future, you must love your brother and respect your grandfather!" Did you hear that!"
