Zhu Zhanji didn't have so many inner thoughts. He entered the door and bowed to Zhu Di, who was dealing with the memorial,""Greetings, grandfather!"
Zhu Di looked up at Zhu Zhanji and said,""Yes, although the scholar's matter was handled well, it was a little rash. I'm afraid it will damage your reputation in the future."
Zhu Zhanji smiled knowingly." Grandpa wasn't in the capital at that time. How could I not step forward to deal with it? How could my reputation be more important than the dignity of my Zhu family?"
"Zhu Youjian has been on the throne for seventeen years. The scholars of the Ming Dynasty are so used to it. When can the cabinet of the Ming Dynasty reject the emperor's imperial edict? Isn't this ridiculous?"
Zhu Di also sighed worriedly."Yeah, it seems that this place is more important than we thought. Today, Grandpa went to take a look at the surrounding situation!”
"We're going to send troops."
"Grandpa, what do you mean?" Zhu Zhanji asked in a low voice.”
Zhu Di said helplessly," Shanxi, Shandong, Hebei, and Zhili. These places are either divided by military governors or are ravaged by bandits. The people are in deep trouble. If we don't deal with them, I'm afraid the people of the Ming Dynasty will lose their hearts."
Zhu Zhanji was stunned for a moment and immediately cupped his fists."Grandfather, grandson requests to fight!"
"Haha, good. It's good to have this ambition, but you have more important things to do."
"What else is important?" Zhu Zhanji asked.”
Zhu Di looked at Zhu Zhanji seriously and said,""We still have to rely on you. Yang Shiqi is a scholar and his ability is not bad. However, scholars are inevitably pedantic and can't do things quickly. Moreover, at this time, the capital also needs a person from the Zhu family to hold down the fort!”
Zhu Zhanji nodded.”
Zhu Di nodded." Yes, I won't teach you what to do next. You know what to do, right?"”
"Grandson understands!"
"Okay, you can go back. Grandpa is tired. Remember to go to court tomorrow morning!”
"Your grandson will take his leave!"
Zhu Zhanji bowed and retreated to the small courtyard beside him. As he walked, he looked at Chen Nan and said,""Go and summon the Northern Town Governor, Liu Ning, to see me!”
"Your Highness, Lord Liu is still over there!" Chen Nan was stunned.
"Yes, go and call him."
"This subordinate will obey!"
Zhu Zhanji returned to the courtyard and sat on the recliner that he had asked the craftsman to develop. He closed his eyes slightly and began to pretend to sleep.
An hour later.
"Young Master, Liu Ning is here!"
"Let him in!"
Liu Ning bowed and came in,"Your Highness."
"Yes, get up."
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
"Is there any bad news in the capital?”
Liu Ning lowered his head." It's mostly peaceful. It's just that the two princes have been very puzzled recently. They're very curious about the whereabouts of the emperor and the army. They've already begun to ask around."
"What else?"
"The civil officials in the court are also a little restless. Lord Yang Shiqi was ordered to buy a large number of grain from the aristocratic families for the war here. Now there are some people on the other side who are panicking. Everyone doesn't know what's going on."
Zhu Zhanji nodded." Yes. Is there any progress in the assassination of the Emperor?"”
"Reporting to Yours Truly, we have no clue at the moment!”
Zhu Zhanji looked at Liu Ning strangely and said,""Liu Ning, you are the governor of the Jinyiwei's North Guard. Do you Jinyiwei take me for a fool?”
Liu Ning's expression changed, and he hurriedly knelt down and said,""This subordinate does not dare!"
Zhu Zhanji playfully looked at Liu Ning and said,""You don't dare? Why can't I see that you don't dare to?”
"Chen Nan, give him the thing in my hand."
Liu Ning took the memorial and looked at it. The expression on his face began to turn ugly. He hurriedly bowed to Zhu Zhanji and said,"It is not that this subordinate did not investigate Your Highness's atonement, but this matter involves a lot of people. This subordinate…"
"Liu Ning, let me ask you something else. Do you still have the right to choose to sit there?" Zhu Zhanji sneered.”
Liu Ning was stunned for a moment. He lowered his head and bowed." Don't worry, Your Highness. There will be news within three days!"”
"Yes, and keep an eye on my two uncles."
"This subordinate will obey!"
"Go do your work."
"This subordinate will take his leave!"
Zhu Zhanji continued to lie down lazily. The Han King and Zhao King were bound to be anxious. They were also considered generals of the Ming Dynasty, but they were not involved in such a big battle. Wasn't this enough to make them nervous?
Furthermore, the soldiers who had come this time were all elites from the 3,000 Battalion and the 5 military camps. Most of these soldiers were Third Uncle and Second Uncle's men, so how could they not think too much?
Zhu Zhanji looked at himself in the distance with a playful expression and muttered,""The tree wants to be quiet, but the wind won't stop!"
....
The next morning, Zhu Zhanji dressed up and went to the main hall of the Palace of Heavenly Purity.
Zhu Di walked out, dressed in plain clothes.
Zhu Zhanji couldn't help but twitch his lips. The other emperors were all as mighty as they were, and the Zhu family's emperor was like an old farmer.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!" the officials hurriedly bowed.”
"Rise!"
Zhu Di's personal eunuch took a step forward and bowed.""If there's anything, report it as soon as possible."
