Chapter 83 Zhu Di: Lord Zhao is back?

After Kong Jin finished speaking, there was a sudden silence in the big tent.

Some of the generals next to him also looked at Kong Jin with strange eyes.

Although they didn't know whether what Kong Jin said was true, they did know one thing.

Just now, on the letter from home that the emperor received, it clearly stated:

"The profit in November is huge... times that of Ji Gang... donate [-] silver... to the inner money."

Although some content was omitted after [-], none of them were fools, how could they not guess it, but the emperor didn't say it, and they didn't dare to open it.

Just like this, this Yan Shenggong in front of him actually wants to use the excuse of usurping internal funds to deal with this grandson?

Isn't this the old birthday star hanged himself?

What happened to Taisun usurper?
What happened to Taisun who built two colleges?
What happened to the grandson spending some of his internal money?
Not to mention just building two academies, it would only cost a few million taels of silver to survive.

Even if all the original money in the internal funds is spent, it is estimated that His Majesty the Emperor will clap his hands and applaud loudly, right?
Then I would ask my grandson whether the money is enough to spend, right?
Although they don't know how rich the emperor's internal money is, but compared to [-]... ahem, this number is definitely far inferior.

Kong Jin didn't know why these reckless men suddenly looked at him so strangely.

It's very complicated, it's not as murderous as before, it's just a little more sarcasm, a little more contempt, and a little more disdain, but what's going on with this pity?

Have I anything to be pitied about?

Zhu Di laughed angrily when he heard Kong Jin's words.

Thinking of the money his grandson had worked so hard to save for himself in order to allow him to have money to fight in the future, he looked at Kong Jin with a gloomy look, and said:
"The grandson spends money from my family? Don't say whether this matter is true or not is unknown. Even if it is true, my grandson spends my grandfather's money, what? You, Kong Jin, still want to take care of my family's money Things won't work?"

"This...I dare not...just...just..."

Kong Jin was dumbfounded when he heard Zhu Di's words, and opened his mouth just as he was about to say something.
But Zhu Di was too lazy to listen to his nonsense, took a look at him and reprimanded him coldly: "Just what is it? It's not up to you to make decisions about my family affairs. Since you don't want to sacrifice to the Confucius Temple in Yingtian, I don't think it's better so."

Zhu Di stared at Kong Jin, paused, and said, "I don't make things difficult for you, but for your sake as Duke Yan, how about I give you a special decree?"

"I arranged you into the army, and I didn't let you have as much military exploits as other soldiers. As long as you can personally go into battle and kill an enemy on the battlefield, I will give you a promotion."

"Soldiers, small banners, general banners, test hundreds of households, hundreds of households, deputy thousand chiefs, thousand chiefs, Wei Zhenfu, command frugal affairs, command colleagues, and command envoys."

Zhu Di read a list of official positions in one breath, and then smiled and said: "Look, I treat you well, Duke Yan, right? As long as you kill ten people, you can immediately become the commander of the guard guarding one side!"

"Then you can continue to kill. After becoming the Commander of the Guards, if you kill one, you will be named a baron. If you kill two, you will be an earl. At that time, you will be rewarded with iron scrolls. You are not joking, as long as you kill fourteen enemies on the battlefield, your Kong family will be a duo. How about it? I treat you well, right? ?”

The other generals on the side were stunned when they heard Zhu Di's words.

Then he looked at Kong Jin with naked envy.

How is this not bad?

This is simply the enviable redness of the eyes, isn't it?

If this decree fell on them, most of the people they killed on the battlefield on the first day would be enough to seal the duke.

Even many people are enough to be sealed several times in a row.

It's just that looking at it, some people's eyes became a little weird again.

An old man who is almost 50 years old, with old arms and legs, is afraid that he will not survive a stick of incense when he goes to the battlefield?
The emperor really knows how to play.

Kong Jin was also dumbfounded when he heard Zhu Di's words, so it would be no problem for him to write articles and make poems.

But going to the battlefield, wouldn't that kill him?
"Your majesty, my minister..."

He opened his mouth and was about to refuse when Zhu Di directly interrupted him and asked coldly:

"Do you have any opinion on my will?"

Kong Jin was startled when he met Zhu Di's eyes, and quickly shook his head and said, "I dare not!"

Seeing this, Zhu Di nodded, and said with a smile: "It's fine if you don't have an opinion. Let me see it this way. In the future, the Kong family's attacking nobles should also follow this rule. If you want the title of Yan Shenggong, you can go to the battlefield to kill the enemy. I won’t embarrass you, if you don’t kill ten people, you’ll be an officer in the army; if you kill ten people, you’ll attack barons on eleven, twelve earls, thirteen marquises, and fourteen dukes.”

"This………"

Kong Jin's old face instantly turned pale when he heard Zhu Di's words.

It's fine to let him kill the enemy, even if he doesn't kill one, then he is Yan Shenggong anyway.

But his descendants Xijue wanted to kill the enemy, and Kong Jin suddenly felt cold sweat breaking out on his forehead.

However, Zhu Di didn't give him a chance to talk anymore. He waved his hand and said to Fan Zhong beside him, "Come on, take Yan Shenggong down and change into a military uniform. Since you are in the army, you should accept the rules of the army!"

As soon as Zhu Di finished speaking, two personal soldiers stepped forward. Without saying a word, they dragged Kong Jin, who was already frightened and dumbfounded, and walked out.

Just as Kong Jin wanted to shout something, he was already out of the bag.

Outside the big tent, he bumped into two people who had been standing here before.

When Kong Jin saw one of them, he immediately cried out as if he saw a savior, "His Royal Highness Zhao Wang, what a disaster, what a disaster!"

Zhu Gaosui was stunned when Zhu Gaosui saw this, and opened his mouth to ask something, when the curtain of the big tent opened again:

"Hanwang Highness, Zhaowang Highness, the emperor let the two highnesses go in."

"Hey!"

Zhu Gaoxu who was on the side touched Zhu Gaosui, and without saying a word, he pulled Zhu Gaosui and walked into the big tent.

Zhu Gaosui was still thinking about what happened to Kong Jin just now, and felt a little uneasy.

He was pulled in by Zhu Gaoxu.

As soon as they entered the big tent, the two of them didn't care too much, and immediately saluted:
"My son Zhu Gaoxu (Sui) sees the emperor!"

Zhu Di glanced at the two of them, then his eyes fell on Zhu Gaosui, his eyes were meaningful, and he said, "Our Prince Zhao is back?"

Zhu Gaosui yelled inwardly when he heard this address, and looked carefully at Zhu Di's serious face, and immediately shrank his neck, calling pitifully: "Father..."

As soon as Zhu Gaosui opened his mouth, the abrupt Zhu Di gave him a cold look, and said indifferently: "Who is your father here?"

Zhu Gaosui: "???"

A few capital letters appeared on his face, Zhu Gaosui quickly changed his words: "The emperor... the emperor!"

Hearing Zhu Gaosui called the emperor, Zhu Di nodded, smiled, got up and walked to his youngest son, and asked, "Do you still remember what I told you before you set off? Let you go and have a look, Let's see when the gang of rebels entered Yingtian, who arranged it, and what's their intention?"

After a pause, Zhu Di patted Zhu Gaosui on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Since you're back, you should have noticed it, so tell me about it!"

"Emperor...Emperor..."

Zhu Gaosui became more nervous when he heard this, and said quickly:
"My son, my son responded to the sky this time and didn't see the rebels, but my son saw Zhu Zhanji. That's right, it's Zhu Zhanji. He's messing around with the sky, Your Majesty."

"Is this what you saw?"

Zhu Di seemed dissatisfied when he heard Zhu Gaosui's words, and murmured: "I told you to go back and see who is the rebel, but you didn't see the rebel, but you have been staring at Zhan Ji all day, Lord Zhao, what are you doing?" Already?"

"Your majesty, it's not that my ministers want to stare at Zhanji all day long, but this kid can't do without staring at him. He put the imperial prison's sacrificial wine into the imperial prison, and he still wants to use your internal funds to build something. Academy, not to mention the establishment of the academy, but also the name of our royal family, father, tell me, who gave him the courage? How dare he do this?"

Hearing Zhu Gaosui's words, Zhu Di glanced at him, and said lightly:

"I gave it!"

Hearing Zhu Di's words, Zhu Gaosui was stunned for a moment, a little unresponsive, and subconsciously asked, "What... what? Your... Your Majesty, what did you just say?"

Hearing his question, Zhu Di said, "I said, I gave him his guts, I let him spend the money in his pocket, I let him shut down Li Shimian, and I let him build the academy, um. , Lord Zhao, what else do you want to say now?"

Zhu Gaosui was immediately dumbfounded when he heard Zhu Di's words, he looked at Zhu Di blankly and said, "Father, don't we take such a joke?"

"joke?"

Zhu Di walked back to his handsome chair, sat down, and said, "Then why don't I show you the imperial decree?"

Zhu Gaosui: "..."

Take the edict?
You, an emperor, say this, is it any different from not saying it?
As for imperial edicts, don’t you have as many as you want?
Seeing that Zhu Gaosui stopped talking, Zhu Di continued: "I remember telling you to stay at home when you go back this time, and don't go out, just look at home, you are good, and you pretend to be a refugee? Pretend to be a refugee? That's all, you didn't see anything, so you ran back?"

As Zhu Di spoke, he calmed down slightly and said:

"Well, since you like to pretend to be a refugee, you can still pretend to be a refugee now. I will send you to Yingtian. After Huiyingtian, your palace will not return, and you are not allowed to use the identity of a prince." , just be a refugee in Yingtianli, when the Northern Expedition is over, and then I will restore your identity, what do you think?"

Zhu Gaosui was dumbfounded when he heard the words.

What does it mean to be a refugee in Ying Tianli? Doesn't this temporarily degrade him as a commoner?
First confinement, then reprimand.

Will it be beheading next?
Even Zhu Gaoxu, who was kneeling beside him, was stunned, and after thinking about it, he raised his head and said:

"Father, the third child is just being confused for a while, so it's not possible to degrade him into a refugee? It's better to let him stay in the army to do his crimes and make meritorious deeds, or even let him raise horses!"

"Why don't you take this seat?"

Hearing Zhu Gaoxu's words, Zhu Di glanced at him lightly, then got up and patted the seat under his buttocks, and said.

Zhu Gaoxu was taken aback, he quickly shook his head and said, "I dare not!"

But Zhu Di didn't let him go immediately, and asked again: "So, you also want to learn from King Zhao? How about I drive you into Yingtian as a refugee?"

Zhu Gaoxu: "..."

Glancing at Zhu Gaoxu who shrank his neck awkwardly, Zhu Di thought for a while and then said to Fan Zhong who was beside him: "By the way, I remember that some time ago, the Minister of the Ministry of War handed over a brochure to let the grandson form a young army. I think This method is good, Fan Zhong, let someone draw up an order, let’s tentatively set 5000 people, grandson Zhu Zhanji can choose some people of similar age to form an army of 5000 people outside Yingtian City, you let When people draw up the decree, they will send it to me, and after I seal it, they will send it to the heavens!"

"Yes, the last general leads the order!"

Fan Zhong retreated in response.

Zhu Gaosui and Zhu Gaoxu's eyes widened when they heard the words, and they stared at Zhu Di who was sitting in the handsome chair.

An army of 5000 people is still outside Yingtian City, this...
