Daming: Depriving Zhu Yunqi of luck at the beginning

"As far as your level of planning things is concerned... I don't even know how to lose to me. I really don't like it."

"I'm asking you this out of pure curiosity."

"If you don't tell me, I'm too lazy to ask."

Say it.

Zhu Xiongying turned around and was about to leave the cell.

Seeing that Zhu Xiongying was about to leave, Lu Zhi, who thought he could be arrogant in front of him, immediately became anxious.

"Don't go!"

"You haven't told me what happened to Yun Wen?"

"And...my daughter, how is Lu Lian?"

Seeing that he was about to rush out, He Li kicked him on the shoulder and kicked him back.

Zhu Xiongying turned around and said coldly:

"You really don't worry about your younger brothers at all."

"They conspired with me, their fate should be like this, there is nothing to worry about, it's just death." Lu Zhi gritted his teeth and said, "But Zhu Yunqi, after all, he is His Majesty's grandson! Your Majesty, he can't treat himself like that." Your own grandchildren will all start?"

He Li snorted aside and said:

"You have been in the dungeon without knowing that His Majesty has issued an edict announcing that Zhu Yunqi will be demoted to a commoner and expelled from the clan."

"He is a common man now, what's wrong with him?"

Hear what He Li said.

Lu Zhi stared straight, not daring to say anything:

"No, it's impossible!"

"He won't kill his grandson... This old man won't..."

Zhu Xiongying said calmly:

"Grandpa Huang will indeed not kill Yun Wen."

"But Yun Wen is dead, he died in a big fire he set."

"Also, he was the one who rushed into the fire, and no one could save him."

Lu Zhi was completely stunned.

He thought that he still had a bargaining chip.

His own life is definitely gone, but his daughter Lu Lian's life can still be saved.

As long as Zhu Yunqi is still there.

As long as Lao Zhu is reluctant to kill this grandson.

But now that Zhu Yunqi is dead, he has completely lost all hope.

Exactly at this time.

Zhu Xiongying said again:

"As for your daughter Lu Lian..."

"As a family member of a prisoner, you have done so many unreasonable things, there is no hope of surviving."

"Originally, I wanted to sentence Ling Chi to death just like you... But I can ask Grandpa Huang to keep her whole body."

"Do it yourself."

Done.

Without further hesitation, he left the cell immediately.

He Li also quickly chased after him.

"Your Highness, the Lu family plotted to murder the crown prince. What a crime it is. Your Majesty also said that they would make them wait forever..."

"Why do you want to beg for mercy and leave his daughter with a whole body?"

Zhu Xiongying stopped in his tracks, glanced at He Li, and then at the back.

Then, slowly said:

"You are my confidant, I only say this to you."

"This Lu Lian once bullied my cousin. I don't like this person very much."

"But now that I have resumed my status as the eldest grandson of the emperor, my words and deeds cannot be based solely on personal preferences."

"Anyway, no one in the Lu family will survive. It is nothing more than a punishment to death. It is also the emperor's grandfather who hinted at me to ask me to write a letter to plead for mercy... All the officials are observing the character of my returned emperor's grandson. If they want to let them To be convinced, you must take the attitude of a benevolent and holy king in the future."

"Since ancient times, benevolent kings and sages will not kill people at will and execute people to death. I am doing this to walk the road paved for me by my grandfather, that's all."

Chapter 233 Dao Yan's Remonstrance

Beiping, inside the Palace of King Yan.

After Zhang Yu resigned, after waiting for a while, Abbot Daoyan arrived in a hurry.

When Zhu Di saw the old monk, he noticed that his expression was a little strange.

then.

Zhu Di screened back to the left and right, asked Monk Daoyan to close the door of the study, and asked:

"Master, why do you look so bad?"

"Someone went to Qingshou Temple to make trouble?"

Dao Yan shook his head, put his hands together and said:

"Your Highness is going back to the capital?"

Zhu Di nodded.

"In my opinion, it is not a good thing for His Highness to go to the capital..."

Dao Yan said.

"Oh? I would like to hear more about it." Hearing what he said, Zhu Di was not displeased, but rather curious.

Dao Yan looked at Zhu Di, and said slowly:

"Your Highness, do you know that Zhu Xiongying, the eldest grandson of the emperor, has returned to the capital?"

"This eldest grandson of the emperor, who has been missing for nine years, is terrible... Once he returned to the capital, he started to investigate the case of the murder of the crown prince, cleaned up many ministers involved in the matter, and tried his best to stop the palace rebellion. Normal people."

"His Majesty the Emperor has announced to the world that the status of the eldest grandson of the emperor has been restored, and the ruling and opposition parties have discussed that it is His Majesty's intention to make him the grandson of the emperor."

After hearing this, Zhu Di stroked the beard on his chin, smiled slightly, and said:

"Master, I have heard everything you said."

"Xiongying's return is also due to the blessing of my elder brother's spirit in the sky...it's a good thing."

"Why does the master say that it is not a good thing?"

Dao Yan looked at Zhu Di, raised his eyebrows, and asked:

"Does Your Highness have to put on an air in front of the old monk?"

"This is the study room of your Prince Yan's mansion, and there is no third person present... I just asked His Highness, now that the crown prince has passed away, does His Highness have no intention of seeking a high position?"

Zhu Di said without changing his expression:

"Master, this matter is not whether I want to, but whether I can."

"You should have met Zhang Yu on the way here, right?"

"All of my subordinates and generals wish that I would put on a stance to fight for reserves as soon as I return to the capital...Of course they think that as long as I go up, they will be able to rise to the top."

"But there are some things that they can't figure out... don't tell me you can't figure it out too, Master?"

Dao Yan could only say "Amitabha", and then said:

"If Your Highness really has no such intentions, then the old monk will naturally not say anything."

"But why is Your Highness rushing back to attend the prince's funeral? My old guess... Our Emperor, His Majesty, probably wouldn't take the initiative to ask you to go back, would he?"

Zhu Di smiled and said:

"If I don't take the initiative to ask to go back, my father will be suspicious of me instead."

"Believe it or not, I keep myself safe, I don't say anything, I don't do anything... He will immediately send Jin Yiwei and civil and military officials to investigate and see what the King of Yan is planning?"

Dao Yan kept turning the beads in his hand, saying:

"So, His Highness proposed to return to Beijing this time to protect himself?"

Zhu Di nodded and said:

"My father, everything must be under his control. If someone does something that exceeds his expectations, he will not be happy... Oh, there may be two exceptions in this world."

"One, it's my elder brother, but the elder brother is gone. The second is my elder nephew who just came back, Zhu Xiongying."

"If they can do things that exceed my father's expectations, he must be very happy."

Dao Yan sighed, shook his head and said:

"As his own son, it's a shame that you still act so cautiously."

"Maybe this is the emperor's house."

Zhu Di interrupted his emotion and asked:

"Master, this king invited you here just to listen to your suggestion."

"After the king enters the capital, what should I do?"

Dao Yan sized up Zhu Di, seeing him with hairs all over his body.

"I asked you to help me with my ideas... What are you staring at this king?"

Dao Yan asked back:

"I don't know what His Highness is thinking, so how should I come up with an idea?"

"At that time, the old monk's advice to His Highness will actually harm His Highness. Wouldn't it be wronged?"

Zhu Di smiled and shook his head:

"Okay, then I won't play charades with you anymore."

"What this king wants..."

"I'll write it to you right now."

Done.

Zhu Di walked to his desk, picked up a pen, dipped it in ink, and wrote a line smoothly.

Then, pointing to the line he wrote, he said to Dao Yan:

"Master, please come and have a look."

Dao Yan stepped forward and glanced at it.

Then he looked at Zhu Di and laughed.

"For such a purpose, it seems that you have really thought about your future plans."

Zhu Di put his hands behind his back and said with a smile:

"Is it something beyond the master's expectation?"

"Unexpected," Dao Yan clasped his hands together, "but within reason."

Zhu Di asked:

"Now, the master has understood my thoughts, may he give some useful suggestions?"

Dao Yan closed his eyes, thought carefully, and then said:

"His Highness's trip is not dangerous, but the capital is the center of the country, and there are various factions. Even if His Highness doesn't want to provoke others, others will never let His Highness go."
