My Brother-in-law is the Prince

Chapter 99: First achievement

  Chapter 99 First Achievement

   "So, in my opinion, Zhang Fu's contribution is not too great. Although he and Zhang Kuan, commander of the guards, have credit for killing the enemy, this credit is not theirs."

Zhu Gaoxu seemed to understand, so he said happily: "Then this work is of course the father. The father predicted the enemy's opportunity first. Naturally, the father ordered Zhang Fu to go to clean up the soldiers and horses first. The father predicts things like a god, and my son admires him." Incredibly."

  Qiu Fu and the others looked at Zhu Gaoxu like a fool.

  Especially Qiu Fu, he even felt that it was wrong for him to ask His Majesty to release the King of Han, and it would be better for His Highness to stay in the King of Han’s mansion obediently, at least to be safe.

   So much so that Qiu Fu even thought about how wise the King of Han was at the time of Jing Nan. On the battlefield, he always used his troops properly.

  But now... It seems that the situation has changed. In this world, it seems that there is no room for King Han anymore.

The bottom line is that the king of Han was too anxious, he was eager to express himself, eager to prove himself, it was precisely this untimely impatience, he may not have noticed it himself, but in the eyes of others, he was more or less greedy for merit Adventurous meaning.

  After Zhu Di listened, he stared at Zhu Gaoxu: "Is it because I predict things like a god?"

   "Isn't it?" Zhu Gaoxu asked back.

   "But the reason why I ordered Zhang Fu to go to Chengshanwei is because of Zhang Anshi's reminder."

   Zhu Gaoxu's smile gradually disappeared at this moment.

  He was a little dazed, and looked back at Zhang Anshi, Zhang Anshi responded with a modest and apologetic smile.

  Zhu Gaoxu's complexion was like a pig's liver. He desperately wanted to say something to resolve the embarrassment at the moment, but many words came to his mouth, but he couldn't get out. He just felt... a feeling that he seemed to be powerful but had nowhere to stretch.

  Zhu Di said: "It is Zhang Anshi who predicts things like a god."

  Zhu Gaoxu said: "Yes... yes..."

  Zhu Di said: "He has such insight at such a young age, this is beyond my imagination, Zhang Anshi..."

   "The minister is here."

  Zhu Di asked a question that everyone wanted to know: "How do you know that Chengshanwei may be at fault?"

Zhang Anshidao: "This... I have nothing to do, I found... I found... There was a report from the North Korean country, saying that a large group of thieves attacked their Jeolla-do area. Being able to break through the state city, the minister...the minister was thinking that such large-scale pirates must have a lot of desires. The larger the scale of the pirates, the more supplies they need, and the North Korean country may not be able to satisfy their appetite, so the minister thought...they After the looting this time, the next time, we will definitely choose a more affluent place to satisfy their appetite."

Zhang Anshi continued: "The location of the Shandong guards happened to be the closest to the place they plundered, and they were the most affluent. The Ming Dynasty stationed Chengshan Guards, Dengzhou Guards, and Laizhou Guards on the front line of Shandong. Among the three guards, Chengshan Guards The scale is the smallest and the strength is the weakest, so it is the most vulnerable to pirate attacks. Based on this, I judged that Chengshanwei was most likely to be attacked. The best way for Japanese pirates to come east is to use the wind direction at sea , These two months are exactly the best time for the Japanese pirates to act, of course...the minister is just taking advantage of this...to make random judgments and talk nonsense, who knows, a blind cat will meet a dead mouse."

  The governors listened and looked at each other.

  The most fearful thing is that the hero is humble. You are a blind cat and a dead mouse. How can we live? Be bold and brag.

  After hearing this, Zhu Di couldn't help frowning and fell into deep thought. He walked a few steps and stopped again, as if he was chewing and swallowing Zhang Anshi's words carefully.

   "From a piece of news from North Korea, it is possible to make such an accurate judgment, but in hindsight, it is indeed a case of anticipating the enemy's opportunity. Zhang Anshi, have you never learned the art of war?"

  Zhang Anshi replied: "I have learned some."

  Zhu Di was moved.

   Not only Zhu Di, the other governors were also moved.

   This guy really learned?

   If he had learned it, wouldn't the person who taught him the art of war be even more powerful? This should at least be a character like Han Xin.

  Zhu Di's eyes were hot, so he couldn't help but said: "Who is the person who taught you the art of war? I never thought that there are such people in the world."

  Zhang Anshi said: "It's far away in the sky, but it's close in front of you."

  The monarchs and ministers began to look at each other, wondering who in the palace secretly made a fuss about Zhang Anshi.

   "You mean..." Zhu Di frowned: "Damn it, can you fart as soon as you have something? How dare you play tricks on me at such a young age."

  Zhang Anshidao: "I learned the art of war from Your Majesty."

   "..."

  Everyone looked at Zhu Di in surprise.

  Zhu Di was also dumbfounded.

Zhang Anshi said: "Since I got acquainted with Your Majesty, I often listen to His Majesty's teachings. Maybe His Majesty sometimes just blurts out words, but I remember them all. After returning, I will chew them again and again to understand the deep meaning of Your Majesty's words. There are many things. , I’m afraid of pondering, this minister thinks more and more that every word of His Majesty’s every word is exquisite and worthy of careful study.”

"Being by His Majesty's side, what I have learned is not only the art of war, but also His Majesty's benevolence for the common people. Oh, there are countless examples to mention, and I can't even count them. It's just that I am still stupid. Some places are too profound to understand, I only learned some superficial aspects, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

  Zhu Gaoxu's mouth was wide open. Fortunately, he didn't learn the word shit. At this time, he could only use his poor cultural knowledge to curse in his heart: "Fuck you!"

  Everyone listened to it, some half-believed it, some actually believed it, and thought to themselves: Why can’t I understand it? Am I stupid?

   There are also some people... who seem to see the mystery, looking at Zhang Anshi with meaningful eyes.

  Prince Zhu Gaochi was so shocked that he could not speak, and was momentarily stunned.

  Zhu Di was also dubious: "Really? But I think this is a bit unbelievable. You won't deceive the emperor, right?"

  Zhang Anshi said very seriously: "I never deceived the emperor, otherwise, I will give you an example. Cough cough..."

  He coughed tactically, and then said seriously: "Just say that His Majesty is often in front of the ministers, er... what do you say 'fucking his mother'..."

  Zhu Di looked at Zhang Anshi expectantly, but his face sank.

   Someone is already snickering.

Zhang Anshi said: "At first, I mistakenly thought that His Majesty was really just a general, but later I realized that His Majesty is actually the Son of Heaven. I was shocked at that time, and felt weird for a moment, Your Majesty is a dignified Son of Heaven, why does he always fall into his mother? "

   "Until recently, I realized it!"

Zhang Anshi said it soundly, and continued: "Your Majesty's words are dirty. In fact, there are deep meanings in this. Your Majesty hopes that he will not be the emperor in the Forbidden City. As an emperor, he should enjoy the same joy with the army and the people, just like your majesty. So Jing is hard to succeed, only when you get along well with the soldiers will they feel that your majesty shares weal and woe with them, and they will all be willing to strive to be the first."

"This entry into his mother, although superficial and vulgar on the surface, is an ironclad proof that His Majesty loves soldiers like sons, unlike some so-called Confucian generals who sit in a big tent all day long and speak polite words in their mouths. How can such a person... be loved by the soldiers, and how can we win the support of the soldiers."

   "Thus, the minister made inferences and thought that as a general, he should act like His Majesty, love soldiers like sons, and share weal and woe with soldiers. Then this march and battle will be half successful."

  Zhu Di: "..."

  Think carefully.

   He's so **** reasonable, why didn't I think of it?

  So Zhu Di beamed brightly and said, "It makes sense when you say that."

  Zhang Anshidao: "I haven't learned enough, I need to study more in the future."

With a big belly, Zhu Di smiled cheerfully: "I believe it, but even if you learned it from me, there are so many people around me, how can others not learn it? It can be seen that people and people The difference between humans and dogs is really bigger than that between humans and dogs. The Qing family made the first contribution to suppressing the bandits this time, and this is a real military achievement, so it must be rewarded according to merit."

  Zhu Di made a conclusion immediately, but Zhang Anshi accepted it calmly.

  Let’s not talk about merit or not, but I have said so many bragging words, so I have to give some benefits anyway, my tongue is numb in Zhang Anshi.

  Qiu Fu said at this time: "Your Majesty, besides that, Zhang Fu also ordered someone to send some things, which he said were brought to His Majesty by the soldiers of Chengshan Guard."

  Zhu Di said: "Oh? What is it?"

  Qiu Fu took off the burden, Yi Shiha took it carefully, put the burden down, and then uncovered the burden, and several pears appeared in front of everyone.

Qiu Fudao: "Zhang Fu said that it was sent by the soldiers of Chengshan Guard. They planted it when they were in the field. The fruit just bears fruit and wants to present it to His Majesty for a taste. He also said that His Majesty has eaten all kinds of delicacies from all over the world. It's just a little thought of the soldiers to look down on this melon."

   Zhu Di's eyes lit up after listening.

   Busily said to Yishi: "Hurry up, go and wash the melons, I want to taste it."

  Yi Shiha didn't dare to be negligent, so he hurriedly washed it, and when he brought it back, he wanted to try the poison first.

Zhu Di frowned and said: "My soldiers, could it be possible to harm me? If you try today, the soldiers who teach Chengshanwei will look at it, I'm afraid it will be chilling, take it, and... give it to the generals Try it, Zhang Anshi, you should try one too."

  Zhang Anshi was not polite, took one from Yishiha's hand, and started to chew it immediately.

   I have to say that this melon is quite fresh, a little sweet, and I am not polite at the moment, and it tastes delicious.

The monarchs and ministers ate very happily, Zhu Di ate one immediately, took the towel handed over by Yishiha, wiped his mouth, and said with emotion: "These soldiers have to farm the fields while not forgetting to guard the border towns. It is really hard work." .”

"Zhang Fu is the person who knows me best. The commanding Zhang Kuan and the soldiers of Cheng Shanwei are also loyal and sincere. I will never treat you lightly. This time, I will reward you heavily and give you generous gifts. The five armies commander The government should work with the Ministry of War to draw up a reward regulation, don't be reluctant."

  Qiu Fu and the others responded. They admired Zhang Fu's exquisite heart and Zhang Anshi's good mouth.

  Zhu Di was immediately overjoyed, and looked at Zhang Anshi with a smile: "The prince has this brother, and this son will be the prince's right-hand man in the future."

  Zhu Gaochi was overjoyed, got up hurriedly, and said: "Father is too absurd to praise An Shi, he is still young, and still needs to be honed."

   But Zhu Gaoxu's heart is sour, isn't it obvious that his brother is going to be the emperor?

  Zhu Gaoxu couldn't hide the jealousy in his heart, and this inexplicable jealousy made him want to go crazy with jealousy.

   Obviously he is the most valiant person, obviously when the situation is difficult, he always rushes forward and makes countless contributions, obviously he is tall and tall, and has always been favored by his father, but now...

  ...

  When Zhu Gaochi left the palace, he was already very tired.

  He has always been in poor health, plus he is obese, not to mention that he has been messed up by the imperial examinations at hand these days.

  But today he is very happy, laughing all the way, pulling Zhang Anshi from time to time, every time he imagines pulling Zhang Anshi's hand like before.

  Zhang Anshi dodges.

  Zhu Gaochi smiled and said: "My family Anshi has grown up, it seems that in the future, I will treat you as an adult."

  Zhang Anshi said: "I have grown up a long time ago, brother-in-law, don't treat me as Zhanji."

  Zhu Gaochi said: "Speaking of him, he is always unhappy recently."

   "What's the matter with him?" Zhang Anshi became worried. Uncle will still count on his nephew for the rest of his life.

  Zhu Gaochi said: "He said that he did not agree to the marriage with the girl from the Xu family, and said that Uncle's body couldn't bear it."

Zhang Anshi said: "He...he is talking nonsense, brother-in-law, I think he is not young, we can't always let him idle, after all, he is a prince, you should ask Your Majesty to prepare a few more masters for him to teach him , I heard...many children, when they are his age, are already familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics."

  Zhu Gaochi said in surprise: "There is such a smart child?"

  Zhang Anshidao: "How dare I lie to my brother-in-law, I am very worried about Zhanji, the grandson of the emperor, and the nobles, how can he still lag behind others?"

Zhu Gaochi has always attached great importance to Zhu Zhanji's matter. Hearing Zhang Anshi's words at this time, his expression couldn't help becoming serious: "I will definitely go back and discuss this matter with your sister. Anshi, what did you say?" Very good, fortunately you reminded me, if not, I would still treat him as a child."

  Zhang Anshi suddenly felt an indescribable joy.

  So he smiled cheerfully: "We are all a family, we are not outsiders, others don't care about our family, only we have such worries."

  Zhu Gaochi nodded approvingly: "Yes, a family."

Zhu Gaochi continued to walk with a limp, and when he was about to reach the Meridian Gate, he said: "You have made such a great contribution this time, but you don't know what your father will reward you. You have to remember that after receiving the reward, you will be rewarded." You must immediately enter the palace to thank you, don't let your father think that you are impolite."

   "Also, in the future, don't mention any kind of wife in front of the father. This is not appropriate after all. The father can say that it is because the father has such a temper. As a courtier, you should be cautious."

  Zhang Anshi drooped his head: "I know, I know."

  Zhu Gaochi said helplessly: "Look, you look impatient again. If I tell your elder sister to know, I will scold you."

  Zhang Anshi said: "Sister will not know, I know that my brother-in-law is definitely not the kind of villain who speaks ill of me behind my back."

   "You..." Zhu Gaochi wanted to teach a lesson, but shook his head with a wry smile: "Of course I will cover it up for you this time, but it won't be the case next time."

  Out of the Meridian Gate, when Zhu Gaochi got on the chariot out of breath, Zhang Anshi smiled and said: "Brother-in-law, please preside over the imperial examination properly, I have a big gift for you."

   "Great gift?" Zhu Gaochi sat on the sedan chair, and just now he collected himself, breathed a little more evenly, and asked curiously: "What kind of gift."

  Zhang Anshi said: "Send a Jinshi to you, a scholar from the north."

   Zhu Gaochi couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "Don't mess around."

Zhang Anshi said: "If it is like before, almost all the scholars on the list are scholars from the south, and the scholars from the north will definitely cry out for injustice like in the Hongwu period. But if your majesty is like the emperor Gao, the examiners are required to re-read the papers. I am afraid that the students in the south will also make trouble, and then the brother-in-law will be caught in the middle. And it's better that his ranking is higher, so that he can relieve brother-in-law's urgent need!"

   "Brother-in-law, look well, for my brother-in-law, I will squeeze oil out of a rock."

  Zhu Gaochi wanted to say something else, but Zhang Anshi ran away in a hurry.

  Zhu Gaochi was speechless for a moment, shaking his head with a helpless look on his face.

  …

  The so-called oil extraction from a stone, this Gu Xingzu is that stone, only by squeezing his potential completely, can he have a chance.

  For this chance.

  Zhang Anshi decisively increased the difficulty. At this time, he no longer intercepted questions from a book.

   In the past, when cutting questions, I just took two questions from an Analects of Confucius or a book of the mean.

  Now it is a word taken from the Analects of Confucius and the Doctrine of the Mean to overlap.

   In this way, the difficulty has increased a lot.

  Gu Xingzu was so frightened that his face turned green, but he could only do the questions again and again.

  Learn various methods of doing questions.

   Then Yang Shiqi kept pointing out the problems in the article, and finally made rectifications based on the problems.

  Gu Xingzu is already considered an extremely smart person, and now, he happens to be at the age when a person has the best memory and ability to accept, and is also the most energetic.

   But even so, he still felt overwhelmed.

   It doesn't matter if you can't bear it.

  Zhu Yong and Zhang Fu can always get a chicken from a strange place.

  Then Qiu Song took out the small gunpowder bag seriously, and put it on the chicken.

  A second ago, the chicken was still alive and clucking.

  The next second, there was a bang, and the chicken rose to the sky on the spot, accompanied by a shrill cluck, and finally the rooster landed and was cooked.

  Seeing this situation, Gu Xingzu's crotch was wet.

  The originally dull eyes suddenly lit up.

   Then, with gunpowder wrapped all over his body, he didn't say anything anymore, and continued to study hard.

  Of course, this thing cannot be used frequently.

   After all, it's expensive.

  What's more... the more times you use, the effect may be weakened.

   But seeing Gu Xingzu working hard, it always reminded Zhang Anshi of himself who worked hard for the college entrance examination last time, but in the end he only passed a bad school.

  The reason why he passed the bad school test was not because he didn't work hard enough, but because other people were better than him.

  He couldn't help but envy Gu Xingzu at this time. Gu Xingzu was lucky when he grew up in an era when a group of scholars really took the imperial examination with an attitude of making a fuss.

  Born a few decades later, once the beasts among the scholars realize the trick and start racking their brains to carry out exam-oriented education, the so-called scholars like Gu Xingzu who became a monk on the way will never have a chance.

  Regardless of whether the results of Gu Xingzu's efforts are useful or not, Enke is about to start in the highly anticipated.

  Yang Shiqi felt as if he was committing a crime, so when Zhang Anshi excitedly went to sign up for Gu Xingzu as a student supervisor, Yang Shiqi hid himself for fear of being seen.

  His psychological quality is not high, which is still far behind the prime minister Yang Shiqi who has gone through several dynasties in history.

  Of course, Zhang Anshi believes that people will grow. The current Yang Shiqi has just not experienced real beatings. Life will teach him how to become a thick-skinned old fritter.

  ………

   At this time, in the Wulou.

  A letter of regulations for the five armies' governor's office and the Ministry of War was sent to Zhu Di's desk.

  Zhu Di is obviously particularly concerned about this.

  So Yi Shiha, who knew His Majesty's thoughts well, put this charter at the top of the memorial.

  Zhu Di picked it up solemnly, then roughly glanced at the charter, and then frowned: "Zhang Fu is a Marquis? He is the commander of the capital?"

  Yi Shiha only said: "Slaves and maids dare not talk about state affairs."

Zhu Di nodded with satisfaction: "It's okay, as long as you don't talk nonsense, and this Zhang Kuan... was transferred to the Xuanfu, well, this battle is indeed not as grand as the one in the border town, but it can keep one side safe." , the credit is not small, give him an uncle... there is no need to be hereditary."

  Yi Shiha laughed and said, "If he knew, he would be so grateful."

  Zhu Di continued to read, asking every meritorious soldier.

   Almost all of them added some rewards on the basis of the Ministry of War and the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies.

Yi Shiha looked calm and calm, but he couldn't help but feel a little strange. Logically speaking, Zhang Anshi was the first and ranked first. His Majesty didn't ask Zhang Anshi, but directly discussed the merits from Zhang Fu, but he didn't know that His Majesty was What do you think.

   After reading the regulations from beginning to end, Zhu Di turned back again, and his eyes fell on Zhang Anshi, the leader.

  He squinted his eyes, and his eyes flickered, as if he was deep in thought.

  Suddenly, Zhu Di said: "Damn it, this guy's sycophant skills are not inferior to Zhang Fu's. I almost got carried away and couldn't control myself."

"Ah..." Yi Shiha said in amazement: "This servant thinks that what Zhang Anshi said may not be all flattery, he...every time he sees His Majesty, the way he looks at His Majesty...all...how can I say it, it seems to be admiration Incomparable."

  Zhu Di laughed from the bottom of his heart, and said, "Are you still observing this?"

  Yi Shiha laughed dryly and said, "The servant only sees it occasionally."

Zhu Di was obviously in a good mood, so he said with a smile: "It is true that he has many ideas that coincide with mine, so he knows me. As for his merits, the Ministry of War agreed to grant him land and money. Besides, adding a Marquis, but this Marquis... is not a hereditary replacement, I think it is inappropriate."

  Yi Shiha said: "The honor and disgrace of the life and death of the courtiers are all in the mind of Your Majesty. Naturally, His Majesty's holy order is the best."

  Zhu Di thought about it, and said in his mouth: "This kid... is a capable person, I have other arrangements for him..."

   After finishing speaking, Zhu Di violently raised the ink pen, and directly crossed out the suggestions of the Ministry of War and the Five Armies Governor's Mansion on the meritorious service.

After thinking for a while, he picked up the ink pen and wrote a long paragraph eloquently. Then he closed the charter, seemed relieved, shrugged his shoulders and said: "Send this charter to Wenyuan Pavilion...to copy it, and it will be published immediately." Tell the world."

   "The servant obeys the order." Yi Shiha hurriedly said.

   "One more thing..." Yi Shiha suddenly remembered something.

  Zhu Di glanced at him: "Huh?"

  Yi Shiha said: "There is also a memorial to His Royal Highness, which is under this regulation."

  The crown prince's memorial should have been ranked first, but Yi Shiha made his own claim this time, but he felt that he should remind His Majesty.

  Zhu Di listened, smiled, opened the memorial, and said: "How is he doing with the imperial examination, is he focusing on one thing and neglecting another, and losing ground?"

  Yi Shiha said: "His Royal Highness has always been prudent, and there shouldn't be any major mistakes."

  Zhu Di shook his head, and said: "You always speak for others, for the prince, and for the King of Han. Zhang Anshi is not hesitant to say good things, as if there are not many bad people outside the palace."

"The matter of the imperial examination is not easy. On the one hand, it is indeed difficult for me to push it to the prince. It is so difficult that I have not even thought about how to do it well. On the other hand, it is to use this to sharpen the prince! This imperial examination is very good. It's not a test, but I just want him to know that in the future, he will inherit the great rule, and there will be many troublesome things for him. It's good to let him suffer a little bit. If he suffers more, my grandson can do more. The year is Taiping."

  Yi Shiha: "..."

  Zhu Di read the memorial, but his expression became solemn again, and said: "In this memorial, the crown prince happened to mention the emperor's grandson, saying that the emperor's grandson is not young, and it's time to study, and he should choose a good teacher... um..."

  Yi Shiha said: "My little master...it seems that he has grown up a lot at once, and he is a precocious person."

Zhu Di said: "This matter should not be underestimated. The masters selected for him must be the best. Let's choose four first, and they must all be virtuous and virtuous. For the supervisor of ceremonies, first draw up a few people. Choose, I want to see it myself."

  Yi Shiha said: "The servant obeys the order."

  After that, another **** rushed out of the palace.

   Until noon, to Guozixue.

  When the **** arrived at Guozixue.

   It happened that there was a bang.

   Fortunately, the power of the explosion is not great.

  He raised his head, but saw two clucks, a chicken flying high and high.

  The **** was startled, and when the chicken fell to the ground, four people rushed out, and someone shouted: "Oh, this time it was fried well, it's all cooked through."

  Eunuch: "..."

  He dusted off the dust on his body, endured the fear in his heart, and went forward.

   "Cheng Enbo accepts the order, and His Majesty has an order."

  Zhang Anshi stood up and said excitedly: "Here, come, please, father-in-law, you have worked hard, father-in-law, do you want to eat chicken?"

The eunuch, who has always been domineering and domineering when he leaves the palace, smiled subtly at this moment, stretched out his hand to block it, expressed his refusal, and cleared his throat: "There is a decree, please Cheng Enbo accept the decree first, this is His Majesty personally explained it, and instructed the servants to declare the decree quickly, and to go back and report to His Majesty immediately."

   Zhang Anshi then became serious: "Elder-in-law, please!"

  Zhu Yong and the others looked at Zhang Anshi with envious eyes. The eldest brother is indeed the eldest brother...
