MTL - My Brother-in-law is the Prince-Chapter 69 holy will
Chapter 69 Holy Will
Yi Shiha was yawning outside the hall, when he heard the movement, he hurried into the hall, bowed and said: "Your Majesty..."
Zhu Di said solemnly: "Three things."
Many times, when Zhu Di encounters major events, it is as if a general on the march issues a military order.
As long as His Majesty is like this, Yi Shiha knows that His Majesty has important matters to explain.
So Yi Shiha cheered up and said respectfully: "Please show me, Your Majesty."
Zhu Di said: "First: What happened today must be sealed tightly! All those who accompany me out of the palace must be warned. Of course, I know that they are all trustworthy people, but I still have to warn them again. As I said, if there is any news about it, I will kill you without mercy!"
Yi Shi Khalima said: "Your maid obeys the order."
Zhu Di said again: "Second: There is a man named Deng Jian in the East Palace. In a few days, you can find a reason to let him come into the palace to meet him. Then... I will allow him to enter and leave the palace at any time. All the halls in the palace can be unimpeded. .”
Also surprised, but soon, he bowed his head and said: "The slave obeys the order."
Zhu Di's tone softened: "The son of Zheng Heng, Marquis of Wu'an...is his name Zheng Neng?"
Yi Shiha said: "My maidservant remembers that his name is Zheng Neng."
Zhu Di nodded: "Give his son a Jinwu Guard Thousand Households."
Yi Shiha didn't understand, but still nodded.
How did he know that this was Zhu Di's compensation to Zheng Heng.
After all...I have wronged this old brother for so long, but there are some things that I can't say openly, so I might as well...give him a little sweetness.
"And..." Zhu Di suddenly remembered something again: "One more decree, the three of Zhu Yong... will be exiled to Qiongzhou."
"Ah..." Yi Shiha looked at Zhu Di in surprise.
Zhu Di said with a cold face: "Do as I say."
Yi Shiha was apprehensive, but he still said: "Your maid obeys the order."
...
The news has spread out of the palace.
Cheng Guogong's mansion, Qi Guogong's mansion, and Zhang's family shook.
But at this time, the three families seemed extremely strange.
Because no one thought His Majesty would have such thoughts.
In this strange atmosphere.
Zhang Anshi ran to the East Palace in a hurry.
He started banging against a post.
There was a bang on the pillar on which the head was knocked.
"Brother-in-law, I can't be disloyal. I also want to go to Qiongzhou. I have sworn that I don't want to be born on the same day in the same year, but I want to die on the same day in the same year. Brother-in-law... you have to go to see His Majesty, and ask His Majesty to be extra merciful."
Zhu Gaochi stared blankly at Zhang Anshi, who was looking for death and life, and couldn't help saying: "Once Father has made up his mind, it's hard to change, not to mention those three guys, it's really shameful, let them go to Qiongzhou to suffer a little bit."
Qiongzhou is the tourist destination of Hainan Island in later generations.
But in this era, it is definitely a cheating existence. Once the exile passes, it will not come back for ten or eight years.
Besides, there was a lot of miasma there. For the vast majority of exiles, although they were not close to death, they definitely had to be skinned.
Zhang Anshi didn't expect Zhu Di to turn his face when he said that he would turn his face. Yesterday he saw that Qian's eyes were wide open, no, he smiled happily, and promised to let the three murderers out of the capital. Turning his head, he was actually exiled directly.
Of course, Zhang Anshi also knows that things are not that simple, and there seems to be quite an intention behind this.
But Zhang Anshi couldn't take the risk. He couldn't care about his brother's life and death. After thinking about it, he could only ask his brother-in-law to intercede.
Zhang Anshidao: "I can't break the morality of the world, brother-in-law, you go and talk about it first, your majesty is kind-hearted, maybe it's just anger."
Zhu Gaochi refused at first.
Actually, he didn't have much affection for Xunchen, and he felt that those three guys almost brought Zhang Anshi down.
But Zhang Anshi was looking for death and life, and was entangled endlessly. Finally, Zhu Gaochi couldn't stand it anymore: "Okay, okay, let me talk about it, hey...you..."
Pointing to Zhang Anshi, he sighed and was speechless for a moment.
Zhu Gaochi had nothing to do with Zhang Anshi, and finally entered the palace to have an audience.
Zhu Di had a good time, sitting in the martial building, Yao Guangxiao and several scholars of Wenyuan Pavilion were also there.
When Yao Guangxiao saw Zhu Gaochi coming in, he seemed to have an imperceptible smile in his eyes, as if he felt... things were going in the direction some people wanted.
Zhu Gaochi saluted.
Zhu Di said angrily, "What's the matter?"
"Father, I heard that... the son of Duke Cheng..."
Zhu Di with a livid face: "Are you here to intercede?"
Zhu Gaochi bowed down and kowtowed three times: "Father's holy will, ghosts and gods are unpredictable, but my son still thinks that the punishment is too severe."
Xie Jin, who was standing aside, felt a little lost.
The prince interceded for the honored ministers. To a certain extent, Xie Jin, who was born as a scholar, was inevitably disappointed.
The virtuous prince they hoped for should be someone who is far away from eunuchs, honored ministers, and royal relatives, and who only admires sages.
And this sage refers to a person who reads sage books.
Zhu Di sneered and said: "Since I have made up my mind, you should know what will happen if you disobey me?"
Zhu Gaochi was frightened, so he just knelt down on the ground and remained silent.
Zhu Di said lightly: "You can take back what you said."
Zhu Gaochi thought for a while and said: "Since my son has opened his mouth, it will be hard to close the water."
"Is this your idea?" Zhu Di closed his eyes like an unpredictable tiger or leopard.
Zhu Gaochi said: "Yes."
Zhu Di said: "Could it be because of your brother-in-law that you came to intercede with his cronies?"
"My son..." Zhu Gaochi wanted to categorically deny it, but he was honest after all, and the lie that was about to be blurted out was still not out of his mouth.
Zhu Didao: "The prince must look like a prince, and he must not be kind all the time. If he just indulges his subjects, then how can the country's discipline exist?"
"Father Emperor... son minister."
Zhu Di continued to interrupt him: "I will say it one last time, you can take back what you said."
Zhu Gaochi was silent.
He didn't take it back.
And his temperament is weak, he is definitely not the kind of person who can dare to argue with his father.
Such a person is exactly what Zhu Di doesn't like, he's too cowardly.
But... this silence seemed to carry some kind of silent argument.
Zhu Gaochi closed his eyes, waiting for the coming **** storm.
He is quite aware of his father's moodiness, so he has an instinctive fear of his father.
Zhu Di said: "In this case, then..."
Zhu Di paused, he raised his head, and glanced sideways at Yao Guangxiao.
Yao Guangxiao lowered his head, hiding his eyes where Zhu Di couldn't see.
Zhu Di said casually: "Then I will approve it. Since the prince has begged for mercy, how can I not grant it? Pass the decree, the three of Zhu Yong...behaved badly and disappointed me, but remember the meritorious deeds of their ancestors, the prince I also ask them to forgive them for their innocence, and I also hope that they will abandon evil and do good, and stop causing trouble, if not, I will never forgive them lightly."
Zhu Gaochi: "..."
Zhu Di glared at him: "Why are you still standing still, let's get down, come and give the prince a seat. Today's political discussion, the prince will also attend."
Zhu Gaochi really didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
When did the father become so talkative?
But at this moment, he was still a little scared, so he sat down obediently.
...
A letter of decree arrived at the Marquis of Wu'an at the same time.
Marquis Zheng Heng of Wu'an and his son Zheng Neng received the order together.
The will is finished.
Zheng Neng was ecstatic, and when the person who passed the decree left, he said overjoyedly: "Father, father...you see, I said that you are worrying for nothing. Your majesty appointed me as an official, although it is only a thousand households of Jinwuwei, but This shows that His Majesty still cares about the relationship with Father."
Zheng Heng's face was not happy, and he stood there without saying a word.
These days, he is miserable enough. First, the emperor reached out to him for money.
Immediately afterwards, the person who came to borrow money stepped through the threshold, whether it was a person or a ghost, and when they saw each other, they burst out two words from their mouths. If you said no, they would like to spit in your face.
Some people really want to play the autumn wind.
Some people panicked when they heard about the Su and Song catastrophe, and the emperor actually asked the ministers for money. Everyone said that eating the king's salary, but never heard of the emperor eating the ministers.
So, everyone ran to the Marquis of Wu'an, on the surface to borrow money, but actually to tell others that their lives would not be able to survive.
Zheng Heng is now frightened and terrified. He feels that he is more wronged than Dou E, that he is Meng Jiangnu, and he is in constant panic every day.
Zheng Neng is a filial son, seeing his father like this, naturally he can't help but worry about it.
It's all right now, Zheng Neng is grinning, His Majesty doesn't mean to blame his father, it seems that this test has been passed.
But who knew, Zheng Heng, who had been stunned for a long time, suddenly threw his hands away and slapped Zheng Neng.
"Snapped!"
Zheng Neng suffered a sudden pain, covered his face and backed away, tears of grievance pattered: "Father, you hit me..."
"Bastard, my stupid son." Zheng Heng stomped his feet anxiously, breathing heavily: "Don't you see it yet? Hey, hey... You are so stupid, one day I will disappear, what are you going to do?"
"What's the matter?" Zheng Neng still covered his painful face, but he was dumbfounded by Zheng Heng's words.
Zheng Heng began to look around with suspicious eyes.
He is frightened now, and always feels that everyone around him wants to harm him.
Lowered his voice and said: "Your Majesty, at this time, ordered to reward you, what is the meaning of this? Idiot, it is because... Your Majesty failed to make a plan, and made another plan!"
"He saw that he couldn't get our money by force, so he deliberately rewarded us. Think about it, the emperor has rewarded us, can our Zheng family pretend to be deaf and dumb? Your Majesty is not just asking us to sell our belongings to raise money, but They plan to let us even sell this house to raise money."
Zheng Neng turned pale with shock: "No way, how could His Majesty be so ruthless?"
"Be careful, be careful!" Zheng Heng's tone became lower and lower, and the heads of the father and son were almost together, biting each other's ears.
Zheng Hengyu said earnestly: "In the past, I never thought that the Fourth Prince was such a person back then. I thought that, no matter what, he would still miss some old love. Who would have thought... hey... hey... this is called the crime of wanting to add, There's nothing wrong with it!"
