Chapter 954: Retreat as Advance


Xia Xun abandoned the horse boarding car and walked with Huang Zhen, the car left the royal road, and entered the bustling urban area, and the speed slowed down.

Xia Xun asked with a smile: "Lord Huang is able to take charge of the Metropolitan Procuratorate this time, ranking in the ninth qing, congratulations."

I don't know what your plans are for the future."

Huang Zhen hurriedly said: "I was about to ask the Guogong" and told Xia Xun about his plans one by one, Xia Xun listened, looked at him with a slightly strange look, and saw that Huang Zhenzhen was furious, and couldn't help but said crampedly: "Eh, Guogong thinks that there is something wrong with the lower official's thoughts, and the lower official is about to ask the Guogong about this matter, if there is something missing, please ask the Guogong for guidance."

Xia Xun smiled, patted Huang Zhen on the shoulder with emotion and said: "Lao Huang, you and I have been friends for more than ten years, frankly speaking, I have always felt that you are a good friend, but I have never felt that you are a great wise man."

Listening to your words today, I have come to understand what great wisdom is, if it is foolish, and how great wisdom is worthy of those who are sharp and praised by all.

Your idea is very good, the emperor uses you to take charge of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and in my speculation, he also wants to stabilize.

State affairs, personal affairs, just do what you want, your ideas, there is nothing wrong" Huang Zhenqian said with a smile: "The prince of the country has praised it falsely, the old man just has no ambitions, how can he be worthy of the four-word praise of great wisdom and foolishness." ” Xia Xun smiled and said, "It's just a matter of knowing how to advance and retreat, I don't know how many people who claim to be smarter than you can't do it."

It's easy to say that you can accept it when you see it, but how many people are willing to let go of it, this is the great wisdom of dealing with people, and at this point, even your own country is not as good as you."

Huang Zhen was frightened, and hurriedly said: "Guogong is too modest, too modest, Guogong said this, but the old man has no place to be ashamed."

In this case, then the old man will act according to the words of the national prince. ” Xia Xun nodded and said, "Well, you arranged it like this, it's very good just now, the King of Han was drunk and wanted to break into the palace, but he was blocked by the commander of the soldiers and horses, Xu Yedonkey, and the King of Han took advantage of the wine to beat him to death."

The emperor was furious, and had already arrested him into the palace, stripped him of his crown clothes, and wanted to imprison him in Xihuamen, and told the world that he was demoted to a concubine. ” Huang Zhen was overjoyed when he heard this, and said: "In this way, the position of the prince is as stable as Mount Tai."

Xia Xun shook his head lightly and said, "Otherwise, even if the King of Han is demoted to a concubine, as long as he is still under the nose of the Son of Heaven, it will be a big disaster."

In terms of aggressiveness, Xia Xun believed that the King of Han was indeed stronger than the crown prince.

People have strengths, there must be shortcomings, compared with Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Di and other generations of heroes, these follow-up kings of the Ming Dynasty are not able to talk about martial arts, everything is outstanding.

Since you can't be an all-rounder, it's better to be good at culture and governance in comparison.

If he becomes the emperor, he will only blindly think about the strong master and the ancestor, Daming's family background, it won't take long to be tossed by him, in his hands, I'm afraid it will make a mess everywhere, although there is no foreign enemy strong enough to subvert the Ming Dynasty, but the country will hold the banner of righteousness high, and the counter-soldiers are everywhere, and finally became its gravedigger.

When Qin Shi Huang was there, who would have believed in the mighty Qin Empire II When Emperor Wen of Sui was there, who would have believed that the mighty Sui Empire had collapsed There is no shortage of people who are so happy and reckless.

Now that the situation in the north has changed, the Yongle Emperor may not need to make five expeditions to Mongolia as in history, he died of a violent illness on the way to Mongolia during the last expedition to Mongolia, and the crown prince Zhu Gaochi only lived one year longer than his father.

If because of this change, Zhu Di's life span is only extended by one or two years, and it is difficult to say whether the prince can live to succeed to the throne.

And what the emperor did in anger was not accurate, his own flesh and blood, and he has always been his favorite son, if he was confined in the capital, after a while, the emperor repented, went to visit him, and then moved his compassion to let him out, and returned to the prince, but it was just a matter of one sentence, and variables still existed, so Xia Xun said that as long as he was kept in Beijing, even if he was a concubine, it would still be a big disaster.

Shuren, the people of the world are all commoners, but the son of the emperor, you can really treat him as a commoner When Huang Zhen heard this, he said nervously: "Do you want to put him to death to become the emperor's biological son, if the emperor has more than ten or twenty sons, I am afraid that he will not cherish him very much, but the emperor only has three sons, and the emperor is originally the king of Yan, no better than the prince since childhood, and became the emperor's son of heaven early. ” Xia Xun smiled: "This is natural.

Besides, even if the emperor is willing, we can't instigate the emperor to kill the emperor, and come to say that the emperor regrets it.

What we have to do is not to put him to death, but to intercede for him.

A vassal king who is a vassal is more threatening than a commoner in Beijing, hehe, or the latter."

Huang Zhen thought for a moment, and said abruptly: "Yes, what Guogong said is very reasonable.

The vassal king became a vassal and could not leave the vassal country again, even if he returned to Beijing with an edict, the time would be short.

The crown prince and grandson serve by the emperor's side every day, and the king of Han is a vassal and is not allowed to return to Beijing. ” Xia Xun smiled and was silent.

In the palace, the crown prince Zhu Gao cried on the ground, pleading for the king of Han, Zhu Di was not angry, and reprimanded: "I plan for you, I have to cut off my personal love, do you want to raise a tiger for trouble, he doesn't care about brotherhood at all for you, and you still plead for him like this" Zhu Gaochi wept and said: "No matter what the second brother does, my father is always a brother.

When my mother passed away, I never forgot my three brothers, and hoped that our three brothers would live in harmony and not ruin our family friendship.

Now if the second brother is demoted to a concubine and imprisoned in the palace, the son is the eldest brother of the second brother, how can the sleep food be able to appease the mother's spirit in the sky, how can he be blind?"

Zhu Gaochi kowtowed again and begged: "The father and the emperor plan for the son, don't you know, but if it is to keep the son's position as the crown prince, the son will have the brother of the same mother and the son become a prisoner from now on, and the son would rather give up this crown prince."

Zhu Di was unconsciously moved when he heard this, and suddenly remembered his deceased wife, Zhu Di's heart was sour, a pair of tiger eyes unconsciously shed tears, he burst into tears, and sighed to the sky: "Zhu Di has been decisive in his life, and he has never been bound by anything, how did he give birth to such an unconscious son?"

Zhu Gaochi also had tears in his eyes, and sobbed: "Father, forgive Gao Xu this time."

Zhu Di's face was cloudy, and he struggled for a long time before he said hatefully: "How can I be willing to make your mother's spirit in the sky uneasy, so I will spare this son of evil once, seal him in Le'an Prefecture, Shandong, and tell him to immediately seal the country, you go to pass the decree for me, tell him to pack up and go on the road immediately, don't come to see me, I don't want to see him" Zhu Gaochi was overjoyed, and hurriedly kowtowed to thank him, he got up with difficulty, and was just about to go out, Zhu Di called him again, and advised: "Gao Chi, remember, if Gao Chi doesn't know what to do, he still has to pick and choose the land of the country, and he must not agree."

Remember, the feudal domain is sealed in Le'an Prefecture, and only one of the palace guards is returned, which is absolutely immutable. ” Shandong Le'an Prefecture is only a stone's throw away from Yanjing, and Yanjing has been designated as the capital of the Ming Dynasty, just waiting for the palace to be completed, moved to the past, there is the center of the Ming Dynasty, hundreds of thousands of troops in Beijing are stationed here, plus the northern border army is the second main force in the Ming army after the officers and soldiers of the Beijing camp, which can be described as solid.

Zhu Gaoxu is in Le'an Prefecture, but the land of four counties, a guard and horses, if there is any change, the imperial army will arrive and capture him in one fell swoop.

If King Yan's territory and Emperor Jianwen's capital were so close back then, no matter how brave he was and how stupid Jianwen was, he would definitely have no chance of success.

Zhu Gaochi comprehended, and hurriedly agreed to retreat.

Xia Xun beat the horse and whipped back to the Yang Mansion, and reported it in, naturally the family was happy, Ming'er and several ladies had already heard that Xianggong had been released from prison, but they didn't see him come back for a long time, and now that they heard that he had arrived, the family came out, took the grapefruit leaf water to wash off the bad luck for Xianggong first, and welcomed him into the mansion to sit down.

The whole house is in charge of internal and external affairs, and the old mother and the big girl who have a job all come to say hello to the old man, and they are tossed and tossed, Sakura watched the family show their true feelings, just pursed their lips and smiled, but there was something shiny in their eyes.

The main owner of the family is back, everything is decided, she has no reason to stay in the Yang family, she should have said goodbye and left, but this is a little unspeakable.

Eighteen-year-old girl, once that heart has a genus, it is as hot as fire, and even the girl's reserve and pride can't be suppressed, so she has to use the Yang family is noisy, it is not appropriate to come out at this time to comfort herself, and it is good to stay for a while longer.

"Okay, okay, the master has just come back, he must be tired, everyone go out, let the master be quiet.

Xianya, take these naughty guys out."

Thank you suddenly clapped your hands, smiled and ordered to go down, the housekeeper, mother, and big girl retreated one after another, Xianya also led a few nurses to hold the small one, led the big one, and took the children out, Sakura is a guest, the husband and wife reunited, it is not good to stay, so he only said goodbye, and went out with Xianya.

Only Xia Xun and his woman were left in the hall, and he thanked him and asked: "The master is back, he is very happy, why is he so worried?"

Xia Xun was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Nonsense, what do I have on my mind?"

Ming'er said faintly: "I've been a pillow person for so long, I can't see your joys, sorrows, and sorrows, and your fair return, it's a great joy, Xianggong is forced to be happy, but he is depressed in his heart, how can the concubine not see it" Xia Xun was silent for a moment and sighed lightly: "I still can't hide it from you."

However, you don't have to worry, Xianggong is not depressed, but has some things on his mind, because he has not been able to calm down to sort out a good idea, and he has this concern in his heart, so he is not very happy. ” Su Ying said in surprise: "Even the things like going to prison and getting out of prison have been calculated, it can be described as a clever calculation, what else is there to worry about?"

Xia Xun smiled faintly and said, "Although I guessed the beginning of the story, I didn't guess the end of the story."

Ying'er, this matter is not over yet."
