My Brother-in-law is the Prince

Chapter 492: learn the truth

  Zhang Anshi was also convinced, but this Chen Deng spoke hesitantly, it seems that he was not wronged by the torture.

  Zhang Anshi continued: "What happened after that?"

   "After that, someone... came to visit."

  Zhang Anshi's eyebrows sank: "Someone has also noticed you, so... take the initiative to contact you?"

   Chen Deng nodded: "Exactly!"

  Zhang Anshi continued to ask: "Who is this person?"

   "It's my nephew." Chen Deng said calmly.

  After hearing this, Zhang Anshi said, "You mean, your nephew..."

  Chen Deng shook his head and said, "No, he's just a small character, or...he's just a messenger."

  Zhang Anshi nodded: "Continue."

  Perhaps because of the continuous blows these days, Chen Deng is unusually calm at this time. After all... that 'excitement' energy has passed, and now is the time for the sages.

  Chen Dengdao: "His Royal Highness wishes...does this old man pick up the important ones?"

   "No." Zhang Anshi waved his hand and said, "Everything has to be said."

   Zhang Anshi couldn't miss the details here.

  Chen Deng nodded and continued: "My nephew used to like to travel and made many friends..."

  Zhang Anshi said: "You nephew, do you know that you secretly contacted people to write articles?"

Chen Deng shook his head: "This old man is quite careful, not to mention that I dare not affect my family members! Therefore, except for like-minded people, I will never disclose it. Even if I write an article, I will seal it with wax and wax and ask someone to send it out. "

  Zhang Anshi couldn't help being puzzled, and frowned: "It's even weirder if you say it this way. Since you are so cautious, why do they know that you are the source of these rumors? The people who conspired with you...Can you make sure that they have nothing to do with them?"

   "At least..." Chen Dengdao: "These people are mostly scouted by the old man, so they should have nothing to do with them."

  Zhang Anshi raised his eyebrows, and then said: "These people...it seems that they are quite capable of finding out information, so go ahead."

Chen Dengdao: "The nephew found the old man, and suddenly reprimanded His Highness. The old man didn't know his intention, but he just said a few perfunctory words! But in the end, my nephew suddenly mentioned the article circulating in the market... The old man denied it, but the nephew But he just smiled and said that there is a friend who wants to see the old man."

  Zhang Anshi suddenly became curious and said, "Who is this person?"

  Chen Deng took a deep look at Zhang Anshi, and said, "This person is Prince Changshi of Anding County."

   Zhang Anshi immediately raised his eyebrows when he heard it, Prince Anding?

   Prince Anding is actually just a small character.

  This person is a descendant of the King of Qin and a concubine, so he is not eligible to inherit the title of prince. Like Zhang Anshi, he is a county king.

  But this guy... In Zhang Anshi's impression, he seems to be an uneasy master.

  Of course, the current Daming is obviously different from the historical one. With the transfer of domains, the relationship between the court and the clan has been greatly eased.

   Logically speaking...

  Zhang Anshi said: "What did you say?"

   "It is said that Prince Anding has great ambitions and wants to turn things around." Chen Deng said.

  Zhang Anshi frowned and said, "Why does he turn things around?"

"The king of Qin was sealed in Zhenla, and he had several guards. Among them, the king of Anding also had a guard. The king of Qin was weak and sick, and the king of Anding was the younger brother of the king of Qin. The overseas is dangerous. The military power of King Qin's mansion was naturally controlled here. An Ding Junwang's hand."

As Chen Deng spoke, he paused, glanced at Zhang Anshi, and said: "Besides, Chenla produces a lot of jade, and now he is training elite soldiers day and night, respecting virtuous corporals, and His Royal Highness Anding County is also strongly opposed to the New Deal, so... he thinks As long as the world changes..."

   Zhang Anshi couldn't help being amused when he heard it, and said, "So that's the case, then... how do you deal with it?"

  Chen Dengdao: "The Prince of Anding County is honorable. Since he has a plan, then... he must have his support. If not, he will definitely not dare to act."

   "Secondly, he is able to understand the biggest contradiction within the Ming Dynasty, and he can use this to wait for opportunities to change. Therefore, he must be an extraordinary person."

   "In the letters he secretly wrote with Chen, he was modest and courteous, and he was courteous and corporal everywhere. It can also be seen from this that his... ambition is not small, and his wisdom is beyond anyone's guess."

  Zhang Anshi took a deep breath, but said: "Then how does Mr. Chen determine that he can succeed?"

Chen Dengdao: "The world is full of firewood, and the situation is more dangerous than when Your Majesty calmed down. However, Prince Anding can inquire about news at any time in the capital. With such great ambition, he has trained an elite army. Now Your Majesty is old, as long as..."

  Zhang Anshi's expression became more and more strange. After thinking for a while, he interrupted Chen Deng: "Do you think he can succeed?"

  Chen Deng pursed his lips, and said: "I used to think it was okay, the world is full of dry firewood, as long as someone is willing to raise their arms... But now I feel, it seems... quite disappointed."

   "No, no, no." Zhang Anshi said: "Mr. Chen thinks, this King of Anding County can succeed?"

  Chen Dengdao: "This old man has had a correspondence with him, and his words are extraordinary. Besides, if he has no ambition and is not worried about the foundation of the Ming Dynasty, how dare he do this? This is a dragon and a phoenix among people..."

  Zhang Anshi looked at Chen Deng with a strange look, and he even wondered if this Chen Deng was playing some kind of trick.

   Zhang Anshi's eyes and expression were so profound that Chen Deng couldn't help but ask, "Your Highness, don't you believe me?"

Zhang Anshi said unexpectedly: "No, I didn't believe it just now, but now... it seems that I have to believe it. It's just...or, is it possible? This king is talking about whether it is possible. This Prince of Anding, a guy named Zhu Shangyi , is he simply sick? What this king is talking about..."

   As he spoke, Zhang Anshi pointed to his head: "Mental problems."

  Chen Deng: "..."

  Seeing that Chen Deng didn't respond for a while, Zhang Anshi said, "Mr. Chen, what do you think?"

  In fact, Chen Deng suddenly felt a little discouraged. The recent blow was too great, and the complacency he used to have had long since disappeared.

   So much so that he was suddenly reminded by Zhang Anshi, and after careful consideration, he also began to waver.

  He subconsciously said: "It shouldn't be... right."

Zhang Anshi said very patiently: "Come on, let me tell you, Your Majesty is so hard to succeed, so that some so-called clan relatives also have delusional thoughts, thinking that they can succeed too. And his so-called fierce soldiers and horses, Mr. Chen really understands." Military? If he really has a strong army, he might have already been showing off his power in Chenla, so why has there been no movement so far. Instead, he came to ask Chen Gong for help, and how many articles do you want to rely on Chen Gong?"

  Chen Deng's face changed slightly.

Zhang Anshi continued: "As for what kind of virtuous and virtuous corporal is, and what is firewood and fire, has Mr. Chen ever thought about it, all dynasties and dynasties, everyone has been following the so-called virtuous and virtuous corporal. But have you heard, has anyone gone to defect to?"

  Chen Deng: "..."

  The more Zhang Anshi talked, the more he felt so, so he went on to say: "A person like this actually thinks about doing big things, imitating His Majesty Jing Nan, Mr. Chen, this person may be seriously ill."

  Chen Deng fell silent.

  Zhang Anshi said, "Is this the Prince of Anding?"

   "Hey... old man, what else can we hide?" Chen Deng sighed, and suddenly said: "Your Highness, does our agreement still count?"

  Zhang Anshi nodded and said, "It counts."

  Chen Deng looked at Zhang Anshi with piercing eyes, and said, "My relatives will be handed over to His Highness."

Zhang Anshi was also sincere, and said frankly: "Don't worry, they will survive, but... it is not easy to live a good life, you know that you are a chaotic party, if this king takes care of them, it may be inconvenient. "

  Chen Deng didn't see a hint of nuisance on his face, and even looked at Zhang Anshi gratefully, before lowering his head slightly and sighing: "With His Highness's words, that's enough. Today, Chen realizes that he is so stupid."

  Zhang Anshidao: "People always can't see themselves or others clearly. This kind of thing is very common."

  Chen Deng raised his head and stared at Zhang Anshi: "Does Your Highness know that what you do must be correct?"

   "Yes." Zhang Anshi replied firmly.

  Chen Deng said: "How can you see it?"

  Zhang Anshidao: "Because I know five hundred years at the top and five hundred years at the bottom!"

  Chen Deng: "..."

  Zhang Anshidao: "In the past few days, this king will ask Jin Yiwei to take care of you. If you have any letters, as long as there is nothing taboo in them, this king will allow you to pass them on to your relatives. Wait for your majesty to send it!"

  Chen Deng stared at Zhang Anshi for a long time, then he stood up and bowed to Zhang Anshi: "I'm satisfied, thank you."

   After saying thank you, Chen Deng bowed even lower.

  Zhang Anshi looked at Chen Deng quietly, and then sighed deeply.

   When he stepped out, Chen Li and others were already waiting here.

  Zhang Anshidao: "Hurry up and get the briefing from Prince An Ding, I will go to see you immediately."

  A moment later, Zhang Anshi met.

  Seeing Zhang Anshi's dusty appearance, Zhu Di waved to Zhang Anshi and said, "Give me a seat."

  Zhang Anshi took his seat, then leaned forward and said, "Your Majesty, Chen Deng has already spoken."

  Zhu Di raised his eyebrows: "Say."

   "The co-conspirator is Zhu Shangyu, King of Anding County."

  Zhu Di's face trembled. For a moment, he didn't know that there was such a number one person in the clan.

   It’s really no wonder Zhu Di, after all, Zhu Di has too many nephews, and those nephews may not be able to remember them, let alone a nephew!

So Zhang Anshi said: "This man is the sixth son of the King of Qin. Now he is in Zhenla. This man is quite ambitious. When he was in the vassal land, he committed many misdeeds, but... the court did not pursue it. After that, he became more and more arrogant. The current King of Qin , his elder brother, but he is weak and sick, which makes him..."

   Zhang Anshi said this, but Zhu Di suddenly asked: "What did he use to plot rebellion?"

  Yes, there must be a motive for rebellion.

  For example, a person wants to be the emperor, this is called motivation.

   But a little county king, he must have something.

   "This... this..." Zhang Anshi couldn't help crying and laughing: "So I'm wondering if this person...has some serious illness."

  Zhu Di was very disappointed. He thought he was some kind of great rebel, but unexpectedly...

   Immediately he said: "Let Tiqi be arrested immediately, and confined to Fengyang, in the county prince's mansion... Anyone who knows the truth and does not report it will be beheaded to show the public. As for those who participated in this matter, the family will be punished."

   Zhang Anshi listened, and said: "But Your Majesty..."

  Zhu Di said: "What else?"

  Zhang An Shidao: "This Zhu Shangyu is so ambitious, but he was confined, and those accomplices who were coerced by him were all beheaded. Is it...too harsh and severe?"

  Zhu Di glanced at Zhang Anshi: "Who does Zhang Qing want to plead for?"

  Zhang Anshidao: "I feel that Chen Deng also has a serious illness."

  Zhu Di's face softened, but he said: "It's really weird, the world wishes to kill you so many people can't count it, but you still always want to excuse others."

  Zhang Anshi smiled awkwardly and said, "It's not an excuse, it's just...Xinzhou..."

  Zhu Di also simply said, "This group of people are really stupid. This Chen Deng, I will be beheaded according to your wishes. As for the others, you can decide for yourself."

  Zhang Anshi quickly thanked him.

  Zhu Di said: "It's time to return to Beijing, and we can't delay here any longer. The railway between Henan and Guanzhong is also the top priority..."

As he said that, Zhu Di stood up, squinted his eyes and said: "Now I am more and more aware that the implementation of the New Deal is imminent. Henan and Guanzhong should be a model for the world. Only in this way can the foundation of the New Deal be consolidated. This matter, You need to hurry up."

  Zhang Anshi hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will do my best."

  Zhu Di sighed again, and said: "Zhu Shangyu...is this person crazy..."

  He muttered, Zhang Anshi also looked speechless.

  In this world, there are always some people who do things that are hard for others to understand, but you don’t understand, maybe this person is moved by his behavior.

   A few days later, Shengjia returned to the court, and Zhang Anshi also returned to his Qixia.

   At this time, there is a quick performance, Zheng He has returned to Beijing.

  So Zhang Anshi got another order and went to Songjiangkou with Prince Zhu Gaochi to welcome Zheng He back to the court.

   Zheng He’s voyage lasted two years, but the scale has been reduced a lot. After all, the Ming Dynasty has a lot of needs for ships.

  Because of this, Zhu Di attached great importance to Zheng He's return.

  Zheng He was flattered to see Zhu Gaochi personally came to welcome him. He was travel-stained and looked extremely tired, but he still saluted Zhu Gaochi.

  Zhu Gaochi hurriedly helped him up, and said: "Eunuch Zheng, don't be too polite."

  At the moment, let Zheng He rest for a while, and then return to Beijing.

   Along the way, Zhang Anshi always wanted to hang around Zheng He.

However, Zhu Gaochi noticed it, and said to Zhang Anshi: "Eunuch Zheng is not young, and he is exhausted after this voyage. When he returns to the capital, he still has to play against his father. Don't always be with him." dangle in front of him, and teach him not to rest."

  Zhang An Shidao: "I just want to ask some questions."

   "Then you can ask his entourage."

  Zhang Anshi said: "The accompanying people are still stranded at Songjiangkou..."

  Zhu Gaochi: "..."

  Zhu Gaochi sighed and said: "When I see you, I will know."

  Zhang Anshi had no choice but to nod.

  Zhu Gaochi looked at Zhang Anshi's momentary loss, smiled and said: "The emperor father and the queen mother are not in good health recently, you should go to see them more often."

  Zhang Anshi nodded: "Yes, I understand."

   "And your elder sister, if you have free time, you should go to see her more often. Since Zhanji grew up... She is always unhappy as a mother without someone to accompany her."

Zhang Anshi said: "That boy Zhanji... well, forget it, I won't say it, so as not to say that I, an uncle, have no stomach. Hezhou is not far from the capital, and he can go back and forth in one day. He is too I am eager to get it done, sister's matter is bigger than the sky to me, don't worry brother-in-law, I will definitely go to accompany sister from time to time."

  Zhu Gaochi smiled, and said gently: "It's not in vain that your elder sister loves you."

  As soon as he entered the capital, Zhu Gaochi ordered someone to report to the palace.

   Soon, Zhu Di was promoted to the Chongwen Hall.

  For Zheng He's voyage, the whole court has great expectations.

   Today's Daming has begun to become more and more curious about the outside world.

  Especially Zhu Di, the huge benefits brought by the West to Daming has made Zhu Di realize the importance of this voyage.

  But this time, I don't know if it will bring useful information.

  Zhu Di was promoted to his seat, and all the officials accompanied him. The three of Zhu Gaochi entered the hall and saluted.

  Zhu Di said to Zheng He with a pleasant face: "There is no need to be too polite, Zheng Banban has worked hard and made great achievements, and I will give you a seat."

  Zheng He bowed again before sitting down.

  Zhu Di said: "This voyage lasted two years, is there any gain?"

  Zheng He immediately presented the chart and said: "Your Majesty, I have gained a lot from this trip abroad. This latest chart was drawn by my servant along the way. Please have a look at it."

  Yi Shiha went to pick up the chart in person, and carefully sent it to Zhu Di.

  Zhu Di placed the chart on the imperial case and unfolded it, then lowered his head and looked at it for a long time.

  Zhang Anshi wished he could stretch his neck a few feet to see what was drawn in the chart.

  Unfortunately... his neck is not perfect.

  After reading it carefully, Zhu Di couldn't help sighing: "The world is so big..."

Zheng He said: "Your Majesty, this is just the tip of the iceberg. Wherever I pass by, there are people who are as dark as black charcoal. They can continue to sail, but they are fair-skinned, with high noses and deep eyes. They look like evil spirits. Although they are similar, but their hair and skin are mostly golden and red, which is really eye-opening."

  Zhu Di couldn't help being surprised and said: "The appearance is so hideous, is anyone in the fleet surprised?"

  Zheng He said: "This has never happened. Although the appearance is strange, in fact, he is still a human being after all. It's just that his customs and habits are completely different from my Ming Dynasty, which is rare."

  Zhu Di couldn't help showing a bit of longing, and said: "I would like to see a thing or two."

Zheng He smiled and said: "The slaves brought a few people here. These people boarded the boat and wanted to attack the fleet of the slaves. The slaves captured them and imprisoned them. But...unfortunately, three people died along the way, and only two survived. .”

  Zhu Di's eyes lit up, and he said with great joy: "Very well, when the time comes, I will present it to the imperial court, and I want to see it with my own eyes."

   Zheng He quickly said yes.

  Zhu Di was in a good mood, so he said enthusiastically: "What is so rare about this ghost country, let me tell you everything."

  ...

  It’s a little bit Calvin, I’m sorting out the plot, there will be in the evening, but it may be a bit late.
