Chapter 5(1/2)

: After finishing the calf, the country will be subjugated

The Emperor Taisun's Mansion is not as good as the East Palace.

But under the current situation, in the eyes of all officials, the Emperor Taisun's Mansion is the future Fengtian Palace.

Sanyang entered the mansion and followed the servants all the way in, his heart pounding.

'Why was His Highness the Grand Sun summoned suddenly?'

'Why did you summon three of us at the same time?'

‘Today the imperial court promulgated the imperial edict for Taisun to supervise the country. Is this related to this?’

This is the same question in Sanyang's mind.

"Well, straighten it out."

"Go left, go left, that over there, a little toward the middle..."

"…………"

Sanyang was beating a drum in his heart when he heard a familiar voice. He subconsciously looked around and saw that the source of the voice was a large courtyard in front of the main hall.

A handsome young man in brocade clothes was rolling up his sleeves, directing a group of eunuchs to work, and from time to time he would do it himself.

"Master Zhu."

Sanyang was stunned, and they all recognized Zhu Xiongying.

"Is Young Master Zhu from Taisun Mansion?"

"Looking at his behavior, he must be a close confidant of Taisun. Otherwise, how could he dare to make such a loud noise in Taisun's mansion."

"No wonder I felt that he had an extraordinary temperament when I first met him."

The three of them each had their own thoughts.

Zhu Xiongying also saw Sanyang and gave him a look and a smile.

"Three of you, the Palace of Eternal Life is just ahead."

The chamberlain stopped and made a gesture of invitation, but did not continue forward.

The Palace of Eternal Life is the sleeping palace of the emperor's grandson and cannot be approached unless summoned.

"Good work."

Sanyang saluted in unison, glanced at Zhu Xiongying in unison, and then walked up the steps into the hall.

At a glance, I saw stacks of memorials as high as a hill placed in the middle of the hall.

In the wide courtyard outside the Hall of Eternal Life, large and small flags of different colors stood in different positions, fluttering in the wind.

Zhu Xiongying looked at his masterpiece and was very satisfied.

The most important thing about this technique of summoning wind and rain is to set up the formation, the nine palaces of the universe, the five elements and the eight trigrams, and you can't make a mistake in one step.

"Just follow the drawings and continue working."

"Xiaobao, keep an eye on it."

After exchanging a few words, Zhu Xiongying turned around and slowly returned to the Hall of Eternal Life.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Sanyang's back and couldn't help but laugh.

Despite their illustrious reputations in history, these three young men are now just small fry who have not entered officialdom. Although they are talented, they lack the experience and temperament.

"Three of you, long time no see."

With one sentence, the three people standing in the hall were startled, and they all turned around and looked at Zhu Xiongying.

Yang Shiqi was the eldest. He had traveled extensively since he was a child and had a broad experience. He was the calmest. He frowned slightly and took a few steps forward towards Zhu Xiongying and said.

"Mr. Zhu, since you are a close confidant of the Taisun, can you tell us and the three of us why His Highness the Taisun summoned the three of us here?"

"I would also like Mr. Zhu to tell me something."

Yang Rong and Yang Pu all saluted.

"You want to know that much?"

Zhu Xiongying walked up to the three of them, turned around and looked at them with a smile.

"That's all I'll tell you."

solitary?

Zhu Xiongying, Zhu Xiongying...!

After Sanyang paused, he understood instantly that he should have thought of the annoyance in his heart a long time ago.

Thump thump thump thump, the three of them knelt down to worship.

"Your Highness, forgive me!"

The three of them couldn't help but break into a cold sweat when they thought about how they had interacted with His Highness Taisun as equals in the past, and even sometimes talked with him like a teacher.

Of course, all three of them are smart people.

It all became clear at this moment.

Why did the three of them come to Beijing at the same time two years ago by such a coincidence, why did they live in the same alley by coincidence, why did they also know a man named Zhu Yingxiong, and why did this man named Zhu Yingxiong persuade them to take the imperial examination at the same time.

This was cultivated intentionally by His Highness Taisun, and Sanyang became excited!

"Finish approving these folds."

Zhu Xiongying glanced at the three kneeling people, his eyes indicating the mountains of memorials piled up in the palace.

"this…"

There was a troubled look in Sanyang's eyes, and Yang Shiqi spoke up.

"Your Highness, although the three of us have official positions, we are in humble positions. How can we dare to review the memorials of our ministers?"

"If you ask me to criticize you, just criticize me."

"When there are disagreements, Yang Shiqi takes the lead."

"Come here, bring the table in."

After Zhu Xiongying finished speaking, he walked away from the three of them to the side hall of the Changsheng Hall, where they slept, and then someone moved three long tables and chairs.

In the warm pavilion of the side hall, Zhu Xiongying was lying on the 3X3 goose down bed specially made by someone, with his twin sisters Hua in his arms, and he suddenly felt a lot more comfortable.

He needs to get some more sleep, and the formation of the wind and rain will still need to be set up for a while.

As for the Sanyang side, Yang Shiqi is in charge. This is also a normal operation. After all, in the original historical trajectory, Yang Shiqi was the first assistant in the Sanyang cabinet.

It's not that Yang Shiqi is better than the other two, but that Yang Shiqi has had a rough life since he was a child, traveling all over the country, and his temperament is more stable than the other two Yangs.

In many important matters, a calm mind can surpass all talents.

………………

East Palace.

Prince Zhu Biao in front of his sick bed.

At this time, Zhu Biao reluctantly sat up and was drinking medicine under Lu's care. Zhu Yunwen, whose face was full of bitterness and hatred, stood aside.

"Yunwen, how about your elder brother supervising the country?"

Zhu Biao asked calmly.

"Back to my father, Your Highness the Grand Sun did not go to the Wenhua Palace to attend court today. Instead, he sent Huang Zicheng, the Minister of Taichang Temple, to the prison to be executed on a later date."

Zhu Yunwen did not directly comment on what Zhu Xiongying did, but said that Zhu Xiongying did not go to court and wanted to kill Huang Zicheng.

"Furthermore, Mr. Yu, the Minister of Household Affairs, made a suggestion today, hoping that His Highness Taisun could order water transfer from the surrounding areas to help the people in spring farming. His Highness Taisun only said that it would rain today."

It rains when you say it rains?

To Zhu Biao's ears, this was clearly a state of neglect!

Lu Shi, who was giving medicine to Zhu Biao, rolled his eyes.

"Your Highness, I also heard that His Highness Taisun often refines some elixirs."

Qiu Xian asked about the alchemy method. Whenever the kings of the past dynasties were contaminated with this, they would be marked as a "faint king". Even the existences of the level of Emperor Qin and Han Wu were criticized most for being slender in their later years.

This happened.

Killing ministers indiscriminately is a tyrannical king.

If one neglects the government, he will become a mediocre ruler.

Those who are obsessed with alchemy are treated as a fool.

Tyrant, mediocre lord, fool...

Zhu Biao frowned upon hearing this.

Although his father, Zhu Chongba, was also a tyrant, he was an out-and-out wise king and a wise tyrant in terms of government affairs. Those who had a hard time were only officials, and the country would not be harmed by this.
To be continued...
