Chapter 1103 Three Young Masters
The Zheng Wang Mansion in the capital was not specially built, but the original Prince Mansion was repaired, next to the Forbidden City.
Prince Zheng Zhu Zhan ranked second, and was qualified to serve as the emperor and reign on behalf of the emperor. He has a special status and usually has nothing to do. Recently, he has been thinking about Princess Zheng's personal maid.
A few years after Zhu Zhan's marriage, his wife Princess Zheng had a maid named Chu Ge. She was born fair and clean and beautiful, gentle and gentle, good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and also sweet-mouthed, diligent and capable. No one in Zheng's mansion dislikes her.
Princess Zheng grew up with her since childhood and fell in love with her sisters. Therefore, Chu Ge's status in the royal palace is very similar to Zhu Zhan's, and is unique.
Chu Ge is beautiful like a pot of daffodils. He is noble by nature and does not want to commit himself to the irritable King Zhu Zhan, who is irritable by nature.
Princess Zheng knew that her husband was nicknamed Huahua Tai Sui, so she could not covet Chu Ge's beauty. Therefore, she kept Chu Ge by her side at all times and repeatedly warned Chu Ge to be more careful, which made Zhu Zhan's failure to succeed.
Chu Ge, who turned 17 last month, became more and more beautiful. She and Zhu Zhanyu, the king of Jing next door, were about the same age. When they met privately, they were in love with each other.
As a sister-in-law, Princess Zheng saw them reciprocating and joking, she once said half-true and half-falsely that she wanted to recognize Chu Ge as her sister and then be a wife for her seventh brother.
Zhu Zhan's thoughts not only did not restrain his lust, but his thoughts became even more intense. He often took the opportunity to pick Chu Gefeng and touched Chu Gefeng. Every time, he was left with a stern face by Chu Ge and angrily without slander?
Unexpectedly, Zhu Zhanyi found an opportunity. Today, when the princess entered the palace, he hurried into the main room. He saw the tent hanging down on the bed and two embroidered shoes with foundation were exposed outside the tent, and knew it was Chu Ge.
Chu Ge felt uncomfortable today, and Zhu Zhan was not at home, so she was waiting in the princess' room. After doing the needle and thread for a while, she was a little tired and fell asleep in a daze.
Zhu Zhan's tiptoe into the room, gently locked the door to death, came to the tent excitedly, opened the tent and took a look. Chu Ge, who was lying on his side, closed his eyes tightly, exhaled like orchids, and was sleeping.
Zhu Zhan's unbearable relied on her height and strength tore open Chu Ge's palace outfit. It was too late to wake up. She struggled and cried desperately, but she could not escape Zhu Zhan's claws.
After succeeding, Zhu Zhan's satisfied thought that Chu Ge was his own person, and he was not comforted. He just left the person and hummed a little song and left with a long smile.
He didn't want Chu Ge to be so arrogant that he cried out in great grief and anger. He felt that he had no shame to see King Jing again, nor did he want to live in the world and become King Zheng's pet. He simply hanged himself on Princess Zheng's big bed.
In the afternoon, King Jing Zhu Zhanyi followed Princess Zheng to visit Chu Ge. He was shocked to see the corpse hanging on it and suddenly lost his mind. Regardless of anyone's dissuasion, he ran into the palace to cry to the empress dowager.
The Empress Dowager was shocked. The palace since Hong Xi Dynasty was very clean and few people were killed. I immediately issued an imperial edict to order the clan’s mansion to investigate thoroughly. So Xu Qingtang and Zhang Fu personally rushed to Zheng’s mansion for inspection, although they were obstructed by Zhu Zhan’s obedience. Xu Qingtang, who obeyed the Empress Dowager’s decree, ignored it.
Xu and Zhang had already guessed a few points from the messy bedding on the big bed. They ordered the coroner to check the body. They saw that their lower body was covered in blood. They obviously had been raped before their death. They committed suicide because of shame and anger. Who did this? I still need to ask? There is only a real man in the entire palace.
Of course, there is also evidence to be found. Xu Qingtang ordered a careful search and soon broke out a button from Chu Ge's tightly held hand, and wrote the word "Zheng". This is the golden button that Empress Dowager Zhang collectively cast for all the princes in the palace when he celebrated his birthday this year.
Xu Qingtang, who was over 60 years old, did not give Prince Zheng any face and insisted on comparing. Sure enough, Zhu Zhan's clothes were missing a button.
He ordered the Jinyiwei to arrest people, but Xu Qingtang actually took off King Zheng's pants and saw that there were blood.
Seeing that he was so old and strong, Zhang Fu was ahead of his career, so he couldn't say anything. He could only smile bitterly and sacrifice his life to accompany the gentleman. Unexpectedly, Zhu Zhan's words immediately admitted that he did it himself, threatening to say what could a mere palace maid do to me?
Princess Zheng didn't expect that it was really her husband's work, and she couldn't hide this matter, so she cried and begged Xu Qingtang and Zhang Fu's subordinates to show mercy.
Xu Qingtang planned to enforce the law impartially, but after all, he was a prince, which was of great importance. After listening to Zhang Fu's suggestion, he sent someone to call his son.
Xu Hao, who arrived, was also very angry. According to his old temper, he simply killed Zhu Zhan's work. However, the Ming Dynasty was a rule of law society at least, so they went to Cining Palace and asked the Empress Dowager and the Emperor to decide.
Zhu Zhanji pondered over and over again and issued an imperial edict, "The national laws and regulations should be taken together by the princes and common people, rape and death, and the crime is serious. Zhu Zhanji, as the imperial clan, inherited the title and prince, did not take care of himself, acted boldly and took care of human lives. If he was punished lightly, how could he settle the country and conquer the people? Especially when he was in a state of mourning, he was not full of mourning, and was not loyal, filial, and unkind and unrighteous, and he could not forgive the seriousness of the crime!
The Zongren Mansion and the Ministry of Justice were asked to discuss the matter strictly, and the result was drawn up, and the title of king was removed and imprisoned for three years. Other matters were discussed again by the Zongren Mansion and the Ministry of Justice. The emperor said."
This was the emperor's will. Zhang Fu held his hands to find someone to polish it, and then sent it to the cabinet.
After dealing with his younger brother's affairs, Zhu Zhanji breathed a sigh of relief and forced himself to not stretch.
"Your Majesty takes care of the dragon body, I will say goodbye!"
Xu Hao followed his father out of the Qianqing Palace and did not know that this had happened in history. To be fair, Emperor Xuande handled it very fairly and could only be considered strict.
After being announced to the world, Zhu Zhan's prince was deposed. Of course, his son could inherit the prince. There was no way, who could let him be the emperor's bloodline?
In history, Zhu Zhan's devil did not dare to be arrogant in the Xuande Dynasty, but after Yingzong ascended the throne, he used the excuse to kill people several times, which had a bad influence. Emperor Yingzong of Ming Dynasty arranged for the censor Zhou Ying to be the chief minister of the Zheng Wang Mansion, and Zhu Zhan's behavior was restrained.
In history, Zhu Zhanji brazenly killed his uncle and his family, using this matter to establish his authority in the royal family, making the kings honestly. Now everyone is living well, probably Zhu Zhanyi did not expect Chu Ge to commit suicide. In short, he lost his awe and took it upon himself.
Xu Hao had to think about this matter, it was so strange. The fourth prince Zhu Zhanyin died suddenly. Now the second son Zhu Zhanxia has been banned, and the two sons of the concubine Li's concubine have been finished. It seems that it is still the court grudges during the Zhu Gaochi period.
At this point, he was secretly alert in his heart. After all, Emperor Xuande was not Emperor Hong Xi, and he was very decisive in his killing.
When I got home, I happened to meet my youngest son Xu Ying, who originally called me "王". Because my biological mother Zhiqing hired a fortune teller, she changed her name when she was four years old.
Xu Hao asked about his son’s homework, and because of the whole lot of things, he waved his hand and said, “Go and have fun.”
Xu Xian and the servant came to the main garden. When they met Xue Yu, who was next to his second brother, they ran out. Xu Xian shouted, "You are so stupid, what are you doing?"
Xue Yu stopped. He was Zhulan's youngest son. He grew up with Xu Yu since childhood. The eldest brother Xue Yun became a teacher and said, "Miss I will ask if the team borrowed from Zhu's mansion has come."
"What team?" Xu Xian asked.
Xue Yu said impatiently: "The opera troupe of Chengguo Duke."
Xu Ying said: "It's not a festival, what are the troupes doing?"
Xue Yu couldn't help but smile and said, "It's not serious. The second master wants to listen to the opera, so he replied to the wife's invitation."
"Oh." Xu Qian saw that his wife agreed and let Xue Yu go out, the boss was unhappy. He thought to himself that Xu Yu and I were both father's sons, why was he so happy? What he wants, there is no one in the family who is unwilling to rely on.
In fact, Xu Hao and his wife treat him the same as Xu Yu, and Zhiqing has a high status. Xu Hao has never suffered any grievances since childhood. But in the eyes of Xu Qingtang and his wife, Xu Hao naturally cannot compare with Xu Yu, and he is a concubine no matter what.
Also, Xu Yu is born smart and hardworking in school. Xu Xian is not as good as that in this regard. He always gets scolded by Xu Qingtang and doesn’t say anything he wants to do. Ordinary people do the same, and it’s wrong to study hard.
But Xu Ying is the most tempered and has a bad personality, so his brothers and sisters can't get along with him, so his relatives such as Yunsu Yunyu don't like to play with him. They all think he's noisy and quarrels, which has developed his introverted and stubborn character.
As the saying goes, a dragon has nine sons, and the sons are different. Moreover, Xu Hao is not a dragon, nor is he a superman or an educator. His children have various advantages and disadvantages, and normal natural laws.
Xu Ying had no friends in the inner house. He made two or three friends in the school supervised by Xu Qingtang. He had similar personalities and tempers and often turned against him because of trivial matters.
There are only two people in the Xu Mansion who are the best friends with him, one is Master Xia Gui, and the other is Zhiqing's nephew Mu Qiong. Among them, Master Xia Gui is the best to please him, and Xu Xian also trusts him the most.
Xu Ying did not enter the inner house, so he went to the copywriting room again habitually. Xia Gui was writing a letter in the house. Seeing that the third young master had come, he quickly put down his brush and stood up and smiled: "Oh! Why haven't the third master come to me for a long time? He almost suffocated me to death. The lanterns rang all night last night, and the magpies that had been called for a long time this morning. I think it's the third master who is coming, and the turtle is shining!"
Xia Gui treated a seven or eight-year-old child as an adult, stood up and asked Xu Xian to sit down, called the servant to pour tea, he put a bag of cigarettes himself and took a sip without hesitation.
"Cough cough!" Xu Qi covered his mouth and coughed, not caring about it, but thinking it was happy. He liked Xia Gui like this, picked up the tea to moisten his throat, and smiled and said, "Is Master Xia okay these days? I was punished by the old man to write. I was tired for two days before I could slip out to relax."
"Oh!" Xia Gui sighed and said, "I have nothing to do. This morning, the old man gave me a military service memorial and just finished writing it. It would be better to ask the third master to read it. It is not enough to use it."
As he said that, he walked to the desk and picked it up, turned around and handed it to Xu Qian. Xu Qian pretended to take it and looked at it, imitating the tone of an adult, "It's very well written. The old man is not afraid of hard work. As he is old, why bother to worry about the affairs of the court? It's not necessarily accurate."
Xia Gui smiled and said, "The third master has a very good opinion. I have advised him so much. According to the old master's age, there is no need to work harder. It also shows that the old master is loyal to the country and can be said to be an old horse in the stable."
"Yes." Xu Qian stood up to deal with it.
Xia Gui asked with a smile: "Master is in the mansion? I don't know what happened to the court today, so the old man hurried out first."
Xu Ying said, "The master just came back, and it seems that he will have to enter the palace with the old man tomorrow, but he just doesn't know what's going on."
"Oh!" Xia Gui asked again, "Then Master Wei and the others are going with you too?"
"I don't know." Xu Qian shook his head, "They are not at home tomorrow, why don't we go out and have fun?"
"Very good! Very good!" Xia Gui smiled and said, "I'm so bored, we might as well invite Shi Tao and Brother Bi to go with us, it's also lively."
Xu Ying frowned and said, "Third Master Shi hates that person. It's not that I'm talking about them behind my back. There is only one Xu Yu in my eyes, and I don't take it seriously. Brother Bi is okay, please ask him."
"Yes!" Xia Gui said: "Then let's make up for it, and I'll wait for the young master here."
"One word is determined."
