King of Han Dynasty of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 128 So, Zhu Di was completely in trouble

After hearing this.

The expression on Zhu Di's face did not get much better because of this. His expression was still frighteningly cold. Waves of coldness spread over his body. He stared at the two people kneeling on the ground with half-closed eyes, going back and forth. Look around.

The two people who were stared at directly felt the murderous intention rising from Zhu Di from time to time. Their faces turned slightly pale, and cold sweat had covered their foreheads at some point. They were extremely uneasy and did not dare to make any unnecessary movements. , for fear of angering the man in front of him, leading to death and calamity.

Time passed like this, but there was still no response from Zhu Di.

The atmosphere in the courtyard suddenly became extremely depressing.

In the extremely silent courtyard, almost everyone could clearly hear Zhu Di's violent breathing. It was obvious that his mood was extremely unstable, he was very angry, and he was extremely angry.

Just like this, the two of them became more and more frightened.

As the saying goes: When an ordinary man is angry, blood will be splashed three feet; when the emperor is angry, millions of corpses will be laid down.

The person they were facing now was none other than the highest ruler of the Ming Dynasty.

Although they all made great contributions during the crisis, they have known this man for a long time.

"Do you think it's because you gave me that meaningful look just now?"

A few people tried their best to explain, but would the man in front of him really trust them?

"We are not fools, and there is absolutely no way we would do something so stupid as to shoot ourselves in the foot."

"With the current situation, how can you expect me to trust you?"

After hearing this, Yao Guangxiao laughed wildly and said in a deep voice:

"His Majesty."

"We are not lying at all. Please tell me, Your Majesty."

"They are all told the truth, and there is not even a hint of lies."

"As far as we know, this is the first time we have encountered this in recent years."

"If we really have intentionally deceived Your Majesty, why do we explain it to Your Majesty today? Why do we have to tell the truth?"

After being silent for a long time, Yao Guangxiao took a few deep breaths, slowly raised his head, looked back at the person who was staring straight at him, put his hands together slightly, recited a Buddha's name, and responded in a deep voice:

"If His Majesty still doesn't believe what we say, there is nothing we can do."

"In the past, the second child's destiny was not one of wealth and honor as you said, but he also had many misfortunes and was prone to die young."

"Why has the fate of the second child changed so drastically now?"

"With all due respect to the poor monk and you two adults, I really have no way to answer this question."

"Hey" when he said this, Yao Guangxiao couldn't help but let out a long sigh, with a wry smile on his face, and continued:

"It makes us think that there is a fifth person not far away in the field, or there is a master of Feng Shui and Physiognomy, so we have no choice but to tell the truth?"

"Everyone is very capable. Didn't they all speak very conclusively before?"

"Say what. Cause and effect may change, but fate is destined."

"None of us know what the other party said to His Majesty."

"As for why the appearance and destiny of the King of Han have undergone earth-shaking changes."

Not sure how to answer at all.

"I think back on when he established the crown prince, His Majesty did not ask me to wait together. Instead, he found us separately."

"I'm afraid that no matter whether the second child's fate has really changed or whether you told the truth before, you won't tell the truth today, right?"

"There are only three of us in the field. There are people who are proficient in Feng Shui and physiognomy, how can there be a fourth person who is proficient in physiognomy."

"If it weren't for you people, would you tell the truth today?"

"Actually, do you really think that this poor monk doesn't understand His Majesty's empty city plan?"

"How many years have we known each other?"

In front of such a ruthless emperor, the relationship between them and Zhu Di was completely worth mentioning.

"Do you really dare to deceive Your Majesty?"

Moreover, Zhu Di doubted whether they had accepted any benefits or promises from the prince.

Having said this, he paused, his expression became extremely solemn, and his half-closed eyes suddenly opened, looking at the place where Zhu Di had looked meaningfully before, and continued:

"His Majesty."

"Under such circumstances, Your Majesty, think about it...do we really have the courage to say such nonsense?"

After Zhu Di heard this, he glanced coldly at Yao Guangxiao, who was kneeling on the ground with his hands clasped together, and said in a deep voice:

"Monk. Isn't it?"

"This can only show that from beginning to end, we have never deceived His Majesty in the slightest."

But you must know that the man in front of you relied on Jingnan to raise an army and conspired to seize the throne of his own nephew, killing almost everyone in his nephew's family and leaving no emperor behind.

Several people have no bottom at all.

I don’t know how long it took, but Zhu Di suddenly laughed wildly, his laughter was full of coldness, and he shouted angrily:

"You people!"

"Your Majesty, there is really no need to test any more."

Because something like this happened, they couldn't figure it out and were on pins and needles!

"His Majesty."

Having said this, the two people kneeling on the ground were also extremely helpless and distressed.

Say it.

He bowed slightly and recited the Buddha's name, slowly closed his eyes, and then moved the beads in his hands from time to time.

The Yuan family and his son, who were kneeling aside, also hurriedly followed up, catering to Yao Guangxiao's words just now and showing their loyalty.

After hearing this, Zhu Di looked at the three people kneeling on the ground, thinking about what Yao Guangxiao had just said, and fell into silence. A trace of suspicion inevitably arose in his heart, and he thought to himself:

"Did something huge change happen to the second child?"

"What kind of incredible adventure has caused a huge change in your original destiny?"

After a while, Zhu Di had no expression on his face, waved to the people kneeling on the ground, and said in a deep voice:

"Everyone get up!"

These words fell into the ears of several people, like the sound of nature, and they all exhaled a few long breaths involuntarily. Their panic and uneasiness calmed down a lot, and they hurriedly said:

"I, humble monk, thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace."

When the three of them stood up and sat down, Zhu Di frowned and thought for a long time. He looked at Yao Guangxiao with half-closed eyes and asked in a deep voice:

"Monk, the second child's fate has changed so much now..."

"What should we do in court?"

"Can you..."

Hearing this, Yao Guangxiao frowned and fell into silence.

As he expected, Zhu Di would ask this question after learning Zhu Gaoxu's fate.

However, if you think about it, you can understand that when he was establishing the crown prince, his original intention was to focus more on the King of Han. If it were not for his destiny, it is estimated that even if the civil servants objected, the crown prince position would have gone to Zhu Gaoxu. .

Now, Zhu Di has clearly learned from the mouths of these people that his favorite son's fate has undergone earth-shaking changes, and he is still an 'emperor who opened up territories and expanded territories'.

And the man in front of me is not a peaceful person by nature.

Compared with the prince's "benevolent emperor and the rule of the emperor", Zhu Di's heart will be more inclined to which direction, who he likes more and who he likes more.

After a short silence, Yao Guangxiao took a few deep breaths, briefly sorted out his thoughts, and replied with a hint of sadness in his words:

"His Majesty."

"I think your Majesty has not forgotten the original intention of establishing the crown prince, right?"

"Now the situation in the court is finally stable. The crown prince's position has been established. The prince's benevolent attitude is deeply supported by the courtiers." "If your Majesty has other ideas."

"It may cause the DPRK to fall into turmoil again, and the gains outweigh the losses!"

"Compared with 'opening up frontiers and expanding territory', the stability of the Ming Dynasty and the stability of the country, and the unity of the monarch and his ministers is what your Majesty should really consider."

"Your Majesty, please do not."

Although the rest of the words were not finished.

But everyone is smart, so why don’t they understand what Yao Guangxiao means?

To put it bluntly, I just suggested that he should not be tempted by Yi Chu.

After hearing this, Zhu Di glanced at him coldly, frowning, and couldn't help but murmur in his heart, and began to think deeply.

He started an uprising at the Battle of Jingnan and ousted Emperor Jianwen from the throne.

During this period, in order to purge Jianwen's remaining ministers and consolidate his throne, he killed many civil servants and created the only precedent in history of being 'killed by ten tribes'.

This has caused criticism from many civil servant groups.

This also led to a fierce confrontation between him and the civil servant group, with the DPRK and China fighting overtly and covertly, and the DPRK situation in turmoil.

It can be said that those days gave Zhu Di a huge headache, and the thought of killing all those bastards came up in his heart several times.

However, these emotions were finally suppressed by him.

After all, the emperor sits in the court, and the civil servants serve as herders.

If we really want to kill all these people, who will be the herdsmen for him?

Who will rule the world for him?

When there is no one to govern the world, the whole world will be in chaos.

After the confrontation between the two forces, it was not until Zhu Gaochi took the throne as the prince that he worked in the middle and treated others with his generous character, which slowly calmed down the corrupt Confucian sentiments.

The turbulent and turbulent situation in the DPRK and China gradually stabilized.

If he really wants to store it easily at this time.

It is estimated that the situation in the entire DPRK will become the same situation again before long!

After all, the second child's character was born as a military commander, and he was not liked by civil servants. He was a civil servant above the court.

Thinking of this, Zhu Di couldn't help but exhale a long breath, stretched out his hand to rub his slightly swollen temples, and couldn't help but feel a sense of helplessness in his heart. He stared at the three of them coldly with half-closed eyes, and said in a deep voice:

"Today's business."

"That's it for now!"

"I know this matter well."

"Also...about the second child, I don't want anyone else to know about it except us."

"If...I find any rumors spread...then don't blame me for not caring about my kindness."

"Do you understand?"

joke.

There’s no need to remind you about this, right?

We are not fools. What words should be said and what should not be said? How can they, the old fritters, not know clearly in their minds?

And if they were able to survive today safely, escape disaster, and not be punished, it can be said that there is smoke rising from their ancestral graves.

How could one be so stupid as to make himself uncomfortable?

Hitting the knife edge with your head?

Ants are still living an ignoble existence, let alone people like them who are in high positions and enjoy the glory and wealth.

Immediately, all three of them looked solemn, shook their heads like rattles, and hurriedly spoke out to ensure:

"Your Majesty, please rest assured."

"We will never say a word about what happened today."

"Well..." Zhu Di nodded with satisfaction after hearing this, and glanced at them meaningfully with half-closed eyes.

After that, he didn't say anything more, simply straightened his robes, and strode out of the courtyard.

Wait until Zhu Di leaves.

The three people's bodies instantly felt like deflated rubber balls. They lost all energy and energy, and their faces were extremely pale. They slumped directly on the chairs, breathing in fresh air with big mouthfuls, and cold sweat slid down both sides of their cheeks like rain.

In this way, after a long time, the three people who were slumped on the chairs slowly regained some energy. They glanced at each other subconsciously, and when they saw each other looking as embarrassed as themselves, they all smiled bitterly. .

After a while, Yuan Gong took out the brocade handkerchief he carried with him from his arms, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, simply arranged his robes, calmed down the restless emotions in his heart, looked at Yao Guangxiao aside and asked road:

"Young Master! Young Master!"

"Obviously you have already guessed that His Majesty is telling us an empty city plan. Apart from the three of us, there are no other Feng Shui physiognomy masters present."

"Why didn't you remind me earlier and give me a wink?"

"In this case, we won't be in such a miserable situation, which almost cost us our lives and property."

After hearing this, Yao Guangxiao half-closed his eyes, glanced at him meaningfully, and said with a half-smile:

"Does Master Yuan intend to deceive His Majesty?"

"The crime of deceiving the emperor is no joke. If not, the nine tribes will be punished."

Hear this.

Yuan Gong was stunned on the spot. A trace of panic flashed in his eyes, and he avoided looking at him. He quickly waved his hand and said:

"no no."

"I don't have that much courage."

Before he finished speaking, Yao Guangxiao smiled noncommittally. Everyone was not a fool, and they were not entangled in this matter. His face suddenly became solemn and he explained:

"Do you really think this poor monk is so awesome?"

"To tell you the truth, this poor monk doesn't even know if there is a hidden fifth person present in the dark."

"What I said before was nothing more than a poor monk's last resort guess."

"We've all been forced to that point, and we have to do it as a last resort."

Say it!

He couldn't help but shook his head, with a wry smile on his face, stretched out his hand in a gesture of invitation, and said:

"This poor monk should have a hard time thinking about what happened today."

"There will be no more two adults left."

Hearing the intention of expelling guests from the words, Yuan Zhongche stretched out his hand to help Yuan Gong stand up, and cupped his hands:

"I'll wait and leave first."

"Don't bother me, young master."

After that, the two slowly walked towards the courtyard.

Outside the temple, Zhu Di stood in front of the dragon chariot. His eyes couldn't help but look in the direction of the Han Dynasty palace. His eyes were full of entanglement, sorrow, and anguish. His face was filled with a bitter smile, and he murmured to himself in a low voice:

"Second brother! Second child!"

"On top of this, you really gave me a huge problem!"

"Why...why, it won't change in the morning, it won't change in the evening, it has to change now."

"Hehehe..."

"The king who opens up new territories and expands the territory, the king who rules with benevolence?"

"It's difficult! It's difficult!"

"But although it's difficult... things are getting more and more interesting..."

After a brief pause, Zhu Di retracted his distant gaze, licked his slightly dry lips, stepped onto the dragon chariot, waved his hand and said:

"Go back to the palace!"
