I want to be a grandson

Chapter 560 Like walking on thin ice, like approaching the abyss

Zhu Yunxi said: "Duke Ying, there are so many important court affairs waiting for you to worry about, so there is no need to talk about such trivial matters."

Turning to Wang Zhong again, he said, "Where is Tie Xuan, where is he now?"

Wang Zhong replied respectfully: "Reporting to Your Majesty, Mr. Tie is at home on leave these few days..."

"What is he doing today?" Zhu Yunxi frowned dissatisfied and said, "Is he going to take leave because of such a trivial matter? If I don't know, I think something big has happened! This is too small!"

After thinking about it again, he seemed to hold back his anger, and said, "Go and bring Tie Xuan, let him explain the matter to Duke Ying in front of me, and make an apology to Duke Ying, and forget about it." , so as not to cause discord among officials of the same dynasty in the future!"

"Your Majesty, absolutely not..."

Seeing that His Majesty was angry with Tie Xuan, Fu Youde hurriedly dissuaded him: "Your Majesty, the cause of this matter is the last general, that rebellious son, and it was also that rebellious son who hurt others first, Lord Tie was really wronged, Your Majesty, this humble servant beat that rebellious son After a meal, bring it to His Majesty for disposal..."

"You beat Fu Rang?" Zhu Yunxi said with a look of surprise on his face: "Mr. Ying, I didn't say that you punished your son for a trivial matter. It's over!"

Fu Youde hurriedly saluted, not daring to say more.

"Wang Zhong, hurry up and see how Fu Rang is hurting, and see if you need to call the imperial doctor!"

Wang Zhong responded and hurriedly walked out of the hall. After a few breaths, Fu Rang limped into the hall with a bruised nose and swollen face. He knelt down and saluted with difficulty, "Greetings, Your Majesty, Your Majesty's Shengan..."

Zhu Yunxi motioned to Wang Zhong to help him up, and seeing his distressed appearance, he frowned and said, "Mr. Ying, why did you beat him up like this? It's too harsh! Sigh, this... Fu Rang, don't allow Meng Lang in the future, don't let your father worry about it!"

"Yes, I obey, thank you Your Majesty..."

Zhu Yunxi said to Fu Youde again: "Mr. Ying, after Fu Rang recovers from his injury, go to the martial arts hall and let him practice hard."

"Yes, Mo will obey, thank you, Your Majesty!" Fu Youde quickly saluted and thanked Fu Rang immediately.

After a few words of concern and politeness, Fu Youde resigned and retired, and Zhu Yunxi asked Wang Zhong to send them out of the palace, which can be regarded as giving the Duke enough face.

On the way out of the palace, Wang Zhong handed a small bottle of medicine to Fu Youde, and said very politely, "Duke Ying, this is the ointment for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis in the palace. His Majesty specially ordered his servants to fetch it. let's go."

Fu Youde took it over and said, "Thank you for your secret, and also thank you, Prince."

Wang Zhong smiled and said: "Hey, this is what a servant should do. It's just a duty. Duke Ying doesn't have to be so polite... You have to try hard to say that what Tie Xuan did is not right. He is in charge of the Department of Commerce and Trade. The trade of goods earns money for Daming and His Majesty,
He actually refused to accept the business that the Second Young Master sent to his door. The servants saw that he was too much favored by His Majesty, and he was a little ignorant! "

Fu Youde stopped when he heard the words, and looked at Wang Zhong thoughtfully, without saying a word,

Wang Zhong was very embarrassed by his actions, so he had no choice but to shut his mouth, and stretched out his hand to ask Fu Youde to go first.

Fu Youde took a step forward, then turned his face away, and indeed his eyes fell on his son.

After passing the Fengtian Gate, Wang Zhong bid farewell and left. Fu Youde took his son all the way out of the Meridian Gate, and saw the son-in-law Wang Ning kneeling there...

Fu Rang knew that he was probably punished by His Majesty because of his own guilt. He wanted to say hello, but when he saw his father's murderous gaze, he quickly shrank his neck and followed with his head down. After that, they left step by step...

But at this time Wang Ning was ashamed!
Of course he knew that Fu Youde brought Fu Rang into the palace to plead guilty, but now everyone has left the palace, leaving the palace safe and sound!

Although there were wounds on his face, after all, he was beaten by his father, so it wouldn't be embarrassing to say it!
But what about yourself?
All civil and military officials saw that he was punished to kneel here!

I would rather be whipped and whipped than be so embarrassing!
In Yingguo's mansion, in the study.

Fu Youde sat on the chair behind the desk with his eyes slightly closed, as if he was dozing off, and also seemed to be resting his mind.

His eldest son, Fu Zhong, and the troubled Fu Rang stood respectfully in the study and waited.

"Let the servants leave and not come in."

After a while, Fu Youde slowly opened his eyes and said.

The eldest son, Fu Zhong, went out and sent away the maidservants and servants, then returned to the study, closed the door tightly, and said, "Father, this matter...is it over?"

Fu Rang on the side smiled and was embarrassed at the same time.

Fu Youde stared at his son Fu Rang and asked, "Tell me, what kind of business are you planning with your son-in-law Wang Ning? Why did Tie Xuan refuse? Why did his refusal annoy you?"

Fu Rang's face froze, and then he pretended to be calm, "Father, what the boy and the son-in-law are doing is a little silk, cotton, and porcelain business. They are all ordinary items, nothing special..."

"If it's an ordinary business, it's worth you going to find Tie Xuan? It's worth a prince's son and a prince's son-in-law to embarrass you? Say it! You should hide a word and break your dog legs!" Fu Youde stared at him and said viciously.

Fu Rang knew that his father had already noticed something, and he couldn't hide the matter, so he had to tell the truth, telling him that he conspired with his son-in-law Wang Ning to get a share of the sea cruise.

"Snapped!"

Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, Fu Youde grabbed the teacup on the table and threw it at him, but Fu Rang quickly dodged it.

"Nizi, you naughty son! How did I give birth to you!"

Fu Youde stood up and cursed angrily: "You ignorant bastard! You are too impatient to live forever, aren't you! If you really want to die, I will help you!" Grab the matching sword on display.

Fu Rang was shocked, and ran to the door, and his elder brother Fu Zhong was also shocked. As a military general's family, and Fu Youde's study, the sword is not only a decoration, it is a real guy!

This will kill people!
So Fu Zhong rushed over in a hurry, firmly holding Fu Youde's hand to prevent him from drawing his sword out of its sheath,

He begged bitterly, "Father, father, even if the second brother is wronged in every possible way, he is still father's son. Father just beats and scolds if he is angry in his heart. Don't dare. You want to beat and kill your son... ..."

Fu Rang saw that there was no such danger for the time being, so he did not escape from the study, but he still stood by the door and did not dare to approach,

Pretending to be miserable, he said: "Father, I know I was wrong, and I will never dare to do it again. You beat and scolded me, and I will pay off all the injuries you caused me. Please calm down." ..."

Fu Youde looked at Fu Rang, his eyes were full of disappointment, he shook his head and sighed, he let go of the sword in his hand, and said: "Fu Zhong, prepare 1000 taels of silver to tie up this rebellious son. Bring it to Tie Xuan's mansion to make amends!"

Now not only Fu Rang, but even Fu Zhong frowned, hiding his sword behind him, and said, "Father, that Tie Xuan is just a doctor of the Ministry of War. Although he has the title of Minister of the Ministry of War, even if he Is His Majesty's confidant,
But there is no need for my father to come to the door in person!If it is about to spread, our Duke's Mansion will lose all face!How could my father have any reason to apologize to a junior! "

Fu Rang on the side also said: "Father, aren't the injuries on my body enough to pay him back? Besides, when we entered the palace, His Majesty also comforted me, without even a word of severe reprimand, and let me go to the lecture hall.
His Majesty has already said so, how dare he hold on to Tie?Dad, you must not go!If you are going, what you will lose is the face of the Duke's Mansion, the face of the noble general, and it is completely unnecessary. Even if father is going, maybe he, a young junior, can afford it? ! "

"Yeah, father, what Fu Rang said is right. After a while, my son treats him to a drink. You can't say anything at the wine table. My son promises not to make him feel resentful..."

Fu Youde sat on the chair, shook his head and said, "You really think that I came forward in person just to make amends for this bastard?"

"Then...then what else?" Fu Zhong asked.

Fu Rang also blinked, not understanding what kind of medicine his father sold in the gourd.

Fu Youde sighed: "If it's a normal thing, then it's over, but is it a normal thing he provoked?"

"Fu Rang, you also saw it when you entered and left the palace. You know how long the son-in-law Wang Ning has been kneeling outside the Meridian Gate. Don't know that he didn't do anything this time, and he is still a relative of the emperor, but even This is still severely punished... Do you still think that this matter will be so easy to pass?"

Wang Ning was punished?

Fu Zhong stared blankly at his younger brother, if this is the case, then...

Fu Rang also realized that something was wrong, but he couldn't turn his head around for the time being, "But... But Your Majesty..."

"If His Majesty doesn't punish, it doesn't mean nothing will happen!"

Fu Youde frowned and said: "Your Majesty has just planned a major event with the courtiers to go on a cruise. I have heard about it in Henan. You just want to get involved, you want to get a share, what are you?
How many people are more noble than you among the nobles in the world?If you want a piece of the pie, don't others?But if all the honorable ministers want to share a piece of fat, then this trip to sea will be over!

Fortunately, I didn't agree to you. If I agreed, I don't know how many people will find Tie Xuan to find the Ministry of Households. At that time, even if there is gold and silver, it will not be enough!

This is His Majesty's great policy, and it is a major event of Kai Da Ming's pioneering work!Absolutely nothing can be lost!If anyone ruins His Majesty's state affairs, the heads of the Nine Clans will not be enough to cut off! "

"hiss……"

"Hiss, cough cough..."

Both sons gasped, they didn't think so deeply about the joints!

That's right, if both Fu Rang and Wang Ning can bite off a piece of fat, then other dukes, earls, relatives of the emperor, and ministers of the court and China will gather together and compete to share the food!
Once a wave is formed, even the emperor can't stop it!
Only then can we understand why Wang Ning was punished to kneel outside the Meridian Gate because of a small mistake. This was clearly for civil and military officials to let everyone know the fate of reaching out!
Tie Xuan was beaten, but it was just an excuse to make use of it!
Even if Tie Xuan is not beaten, there will be someone who will become the chicken to scare the chicken to scare the monkey!
And as the "principal culprit", how could Fu Rang hold it high and put it down gently?Is it because he is the son of the Duke?What's more, he is only the second son who has no right of inheritance!

Fu Rang finally heard the key point clearly, and knew how powerful it was. He swallowed and said, "Father, I understand. I will go to Tie Xuan's mansion to plead guilty, and I will definitely satisfy him!"

Only then did Fu Youde nodded in satisfaction, his son was not hopeless.

Fu Zhong gritted his teeth and said, "Father, I will take my second brother's money to make amends, so please don't go, Father..."

"No, I have to go!"

Fu Youde interrupted him and said: "If I don't go, the force of deterrence will not be so strong, His Majesty did not punish, but we have to know how to do it ourselves!
I'll take him there, you were born at home and kept your name, this is your greatest contribution. "

Fu Yanming is the son of Fu Zhong and Princess Shouchun. After Fu Youde's title of Duke is passed on to the eldest son in the future, it will eventually fall on Fu Yanming's head.

Fu Rang also hurriedly said: "Yes, big brother, you just need to take care of Yan Ming, and leave other things alone."

Fu Youde glared at him, seeing that he was still not confused, he said: "Remember this lesson, the Duke's Mansion belongs to your eldest brother, Yan Ming's. Although you have left the mansion to live in another place, you can still help me a little bit. It won’t let you starve to death, don’t make troubles in the future, and bring troubles to the family!”

"Yes, my child will remember, thank you for your father's teaching."

Standing at the gate of the Duke's Mansion, Fu Zhong watched his father take Fu Rang away in a carriage, and shook his head helplessly.

Standing beside him was an eight or nine-year-old child who looked up at his father and asked, "Father, grandpa and second uncle are out of the house, why are you sighing?"

Fu Zhong touched the top of his son's head, squeezed out a smile and said, "Father is just sighing, by the way, how is your reading? Can you memorize the Analects?"

"The child has already memorized what the father taught."

"Let's go, let's go to the inner hall, you recite it to me..." Then he took his son and walked towards the inner hall.

Fu Zhong has been at home all these years. He has no gold or iron horse, nor has he made any achievements. He doesn't even have to worry about the complicated and trivial matters at home.

Because he has only one mission, and that is to take good care of his son and ensure that he can be brought up safely and safely!

Because his son is the grandson of the Supreme Emperor, the only son of the Supreme Emperor's favorite daughter.

Zhu Yuanzhang's third daughter, Princess Chongning, married Niucheng. Soon after, her son-in-law Niucheng was sentenced to the Yunnan Golden Tooth Guard for a crime. The princess followed her, but died halfway. The tooth beat Niu Cheng to death.

Since the death of Princess Shouchun, the relationship between the Fu family and the Supreme Emperor has been ambiguous, and they are no longer as close as before.

If it wasn't for the Duke's family, if it wasn't for Princess Shouchun who left behind her infant son, Fu Zhong really couldn't imagine the ending of himself and his family...

My son is the life-saving talisman of the whole family. If something happens to him, the life-saving talisman will immediately become a reminder!

So both Fu Zhong and the whole family know the severity.

But even so, the Fu family still dare not take it lightly, the Supreme Emperor is still alive, if he annoys the new king and ruins His Majesty's military and state affairs, it will be like adding insult to injury!

Therefore, Fu Youde, as the Duke of the state, must show his attitude towards the disaster caused by Fu Rang, even if he loses face in the eyes of outsiders, he must lower his attitude...

As long as His Majesty knows it well...
