eldest son of Ming dynasty

Chapter 19 Perception
The prince stopped in front of the gate of Xiefang Hall.

Liu Jin knelt for too long, his lips were so chapped, he crawled to the Prince's body as if grabbing a life-saving straw.

Full of wailing, "Your Highness, Your Highness, I know I was wrong, please forgive me, Your Highness!"

"Know it's wrong? Where did you go wrong?"

Fear and tears hung on Liu Jin's old and ugly face, and he murmured, "Slaves...slaves shouldn't secretly pass on news from the East Palace."

He buried his head very deep and low.

"As for today's matter, please look into it clearly, Your Highness. It was Ping An who was talking nonsense on his own, and randomly cluttered the slaves."

"Okay, I don't have time to listen to your nonsense now." Zhu Houzhao was dissatisfied with the answer, kicked him away, and walked away.

"Your Highness!" He hissed, but there was no response, and his heart was ashes.

Zhang Yong, who was following behind, was also held in his hand.

"Zhang Yong! If you tell me the truth, then it's safe to say?!"

Zhang Yong is helpless, I really don't know what he is insisting on, "Ping'an hasn't confessed yet. However, Your Highness said that you two, whoever confesses first lives, and whoever confesses later dies. I have already pleaded for you, but His Highness wants decided."

Liu Jin's face was ashen, no matter what the relationship between Ping An and him was, could he still trust him in the face of life and death?

"Your highness has gone to see the emperor, and you can explain to your highness when he comes back."

"Can……"

Zhang Yong sighed,
This is what the authorities are obsessed with, but the bystanders are clear about.

"Do you think His Highness really cares about Zhang Tianrui?"

Liu Jin didn't quite understand these words. For the so-called truth about Zhang Tianrui, His Highness showed unprecedented anger, used unprecedented methods, and even threatened him with death.

Don't you care at all?
"Zhang Tianrui obviously doesn't please His Highness. Whether he is good or bad has nothing to do with His Highness. What Your Highness cares about is whether you are very sincere and loyal. We always say that we have been in love with Your Highness for many years, After so many years of friendship, there is still something to hide from him? What do you make His Highness think? Your Highness has a heart."

Liu Jin was comforted by a few words and gradually regained her ability to think, "So, Your Highness will not kill me?"

"His Highness won't kill you for the sake of Zhang Tianrui, but if you still don't confess, His Highness will kill a dishonest servant. Your Highness is letting us understand that no matter how secure we weave other people and other relationships, it's useless. How about serving you in the past, but now you can really trust him? So, in the palace, the only one you and I can rely on is Your Highness, and Your Highness."

Liu Jin still has something about Li Guang hidden in her heart.
He understands now,
That was also a trick His Highness deliberately set.

In fact, both of these things serve the same purpose.
It is to make him understand that in this Forbidden City, apart from relying on the prince closely, any road you Liu Jin takes will be a dead end!

Your Highness,

What a deep scheming!

"Your Highness told you to kneel, there are other uses, and I don't think it's all because of this incident, so as long as you are honest with His Highness, it shouldn't be a big problem." Zhang Yong patted him on the shoulder. Think about it. Besides, you and I already know what kind of temperament our Highness is, so from now on... be more honest."

After saying this, Zhang Yong hurriedly got up and left, he couldn't stay for too long, he had to go to Qianqing Palace.

Leaving Liu Jin alone in the autumn wind, her thoughts were completely confused.

He was speechless,
What kind of chess is your Highness playing?Thinking back carefully, according to what Zhang Yong said was very loyal and sincere,
His Highness should have planned his tests and trials long ago,

It's just that I have been looking for an opportunity, and Wang Jia came to deliver this opportunity,

So His Highness immediately took advantage of it, and then based on the few kind words he said to Li Guang, he knew that there might be a secret connection between him and Li Guang.

So he set up a trick where he had to offend Li Guang, cut off the connection,
As for borrowing Zhang Tianrui... Your Highness really doesn't care about Zhang Tianrui, so it is also an opportunity to test him,
Now it is said that there is a third purpose, so kneeling is useful?

What use could he do to the situation by kneeling?

Can't figure it out.

He might be able to figure it out another time, but now Wu Nei is so anxious that he can't figure it out clearly.There is only one thing that is clear: the prince's mind is terribly deep.

The only consolation is that he had time to inform Li Guang again, but he didn't.If he went, then his impression in His Highness's heart would probably be irreversible, probably dying a few times would be enough.

……

……

Qianqing Palace.

After a hard day's work, Emperor Hongzhi was tired and stretched a few times.

"A few days ago, I felt unwell occasionally, thanks to you praying for me. Although I'm a little tired these days, my body is fine."

The old eunuch Li Guang is going to Qing Palace.

He has white hair, a thin figure, and a long face that is gentle and gentle, and he really feels a bit fairy-like.

"Your Majesty is the son of heaven, with his own dragon aura. Ordinary ghosts and evil things dare not invade. No matter how powerful the servants are, if they are other people, they will not be able to ask for this blessing."

"Haha, you can speak with this mouth."

"The servant made another hexagram yesterday, and the hexagram shows that His Majesty has had more than one blessing in recent days."

"Oh? What else is there to celebrate?"

"Happy in the East," the old eunuch murmured mysteriously.

"Oriental?" The emperor chewed for a while, then realized, "You mean the Eastern Palace?"

"My maidservant heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been loyal, filial, benevolent, intelligent and polite recently. Although he is seven years old, he is more than seven years old. Isn't this a spirit from the heavens, who bestows joy on the royal family? Saints often say that the emperor has great virtue, but Auspicious. Isn't this a proof?"

This old eunuch can talk.

No wonder he was able to gain the emperor's trust,
Logic still makes sense.The Confucianist tricks say that every day, if the emperor has no morals, disasters will come from heaven.Now, Your Majesty, you are unparalleled in holiness, and the heavens will naturally send down blessings!

Emperor Hongzhi believed in this set, and after listening to it, he felt a sense of enlightenment, oh, that's how it is!That's really all my credit.

"My Li Guang, although not a parachutist, is not inferior to a parachutist!"

"My servant, thank the emperor for his praise!"

"Your Majesty," at this moment Xiao Jing came over, "His Royal Highness is coming."

"Quick announcement." The emperor was very excited.

Zhu Houzhao saluted as usual, and then Hongzhi introduced Li Guang to him.

This was also the first time he met Li Guang,
To be honest, no one would have a bad feeling for such a white-haired old man with an otherworldly air.

"Zhao'er, just now Eunuch Li said that the East Palace is rich in blessings. It is also due to his practice of praying for blessings. You should also thank you."

"Thank you, Eunuch Li." When Zhu Houzhao said this, his heart sank.
The emperor is so happy, such trust, how can this be overthrown?This is a real problem.

"Your Highness, you don't need to be too polite." Li Guang also showed a very friendly attitude, "Slaves, a little trick is not enough, you can rely on your majesty, your highness's holiness. I heard that your highness has been widely praised recently, and has won the hearts of the people. Some This crown prince is the blessing of my great Ming royal family, and the blessing of the great tomorrow. From now on, the slaves and servants are also willing to do their best for His Highness, but if there is encouragement, there is nothing that cannot be done."

After hearing this, Zhu Houzhao probably knew that Liu Jin did not go to report the news later.

Then he ran to the emperor's side, showing a sense of distance to Li Guang: "I only know that my father is generous, benevolent, diligent and loving the people. If my son has any blessings, it is because of my father's virtue to influence God..."

These words changed the faces of the emperor, Li Guang and Xiao Jing present!
Li Guang's heart was like a turbulent wave. Doesn't it mean that the prince has a good opinion of him? !
