Chapter 1606: The Alone Old Jinzhong
Zhu Gaochi didn't publicize the matter, but Zhu Zhanji felt that he couldn't bear it.
And if this matter is allowed to simmer, Zhu Gaochi's reputation of being lustful and disregarding filial piety to get close to women will be confirmed.
This kind of king's secret has always been the most talked about by everyone, and I can give you ten points for every point.
"You have to stand firm. If anyone in the south dares to spread rumors, they will be arrested! Especially scholars, find out and arrest them!"
The common people are ignorant, they can be frightened at once, but scholars are different, they will secretly record these things in their books, and pass them on slowly, that is a certainty.
The six ministers all agreed, and when the six ministers in Beiping encountered such a thing, they would naturally despise and take pleasure in their misfortune.
...
"I'm going back to Beijing, and I will try my best to come back before you give birth."
Fang Xing was a little bit reluctant and guilty, he took out a small bottle and said, "Don't touch the contents here, unless you are sick, then take one at a time, three times a day, stop as soon as you are well. "
Mo Chou took the bottle, carefully put it into the small box where she kept the contract, and locked it.
Seeing her pretending to be calm, Fang Xing sighed and took her into his arms.
Mo Chou wept silently, Fang Xing sighed and said: "His Highness is in Jinling, so you will have no worries here, I will come back as soon as possible."
Mochou raised her head in his arms, choked with sobs and said, "Master, you are doing great things. You must put the state affairs first. I will take care of my baby in Jinling and wait for your return."
A woman who is pregnant will be emotionally abnormal, Fang Xing nodded and said: "Don't worry, I'm just going back to be a catfish, and I'll be able to come back when I'm done messing up Beiping."
Fang Xing hastily made arrangements for Mo Chou, and after talking with Zhu Zhanji, he set off with his servants.
...
"he's gone?"
Cao Jin asked pretending to be relaxed.
Cao An was reading a book, and he smiled and said, "Father, my son will study hard, and when the time comes, I will go to Beiping to meet the talents of the world."
...
"he's gone."
Wang Yuan said with a half-smile, "I don't know how many people in Jinling are secretly happy today."
Huang Jian said with a smile: "He's overdoing it. Teacher, those students from Zhixing Academy are about to leave again, but Fang Xing was recalled, probably to punish those students..."
Wang Yuan smiled and said: "Be polite and respectful, and don't kill anyone. If those idiots kill someone, even if Fang Xing is dormant in Beiping, His Highness is still there!"
Huang Jian nodded and said: "Fang Xing was punished, His Highness will probably have to go dormant in Jinling, and the south can be regarded as stable."
The two smiled at each other, and Wang Yuan immediately ordered people to serve wine and food, which was a celebration.
But after only one glass of wine, someone came to report.
"Mr. Chu Xian, according to the news from the Six Departments, Li Shimian fell ill with anger, Your Majesty urgently summons Fang Xing to come to Beijing."
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Two wine glasses fell to the ground, and the wine splashed everywhere.
...
"Your Majesty, the guards in various places are now slack in practice, the city walls are not repaired when they are broken, and the superiors have nothing to do, so they are greedy and violent. Your Majesty, please send someone to take those people back to Beijing to deal with them."
Jin Zhong was getting older, but he never wrote a letter to beg for bones, and persisted every day.
insist on what?
Yang Rong and the others looked at this alien among civil servants with complicated eyes.
Since the Li Shimian incident, Jin Zhong has started his career as a shit-stirring stick, and every day he sees things that are not pleasing to the eye, and he starts to complain.
There is an old roar in the Qianqing Palace, he dares to accuse anyone,
Even the chief assistant Yang Rong.
It's just that Jin Zhong didn't spit at Wu Xun for this today, so Meng Ying hurried out of the shift and said, "Your Majesty, there is no threat from foreign enemies now, and the guards in all places are a little slack, and the ministers are discussing to send people down." Inspect, and deal with when found.”
But Jin Zhong took out a memorial and said: "Baodinghou, I have a roster here, covering up the peace and protecting each other is not the way of a courtier."
Meng Ying bowed to apologize, Jin Zhong's eyes seemed to be out of focus, and he said: "Some people don't think about business all day long, they just think about how to fight for power, how to win people around, and how to force Your Majesty, these people are traitors and traitors, they must die!"
There was no sound in the hall, Jin Youzi showed anger several times, but finally endured it.
If you dare to confront Jin Zhong, then wait for no peace!
Zhu Gaochi finished reading the memorial, as if he didn't hear what he said just now, and said: "What the Ministry of War said is true. The most important thing in a country is military preparations. Although the world is safe, forget that war will be in danger. Such people should be severely punished, but I He has just ascended the throne, and his morals are shallow, and they are tolerated for a while. The Dudu Mansion and the Ministry of War must strictly monitor, and if such things happen again, the crime will be unforgivable!"
Zhang Fu and others immediately went out to plead guilty. Zhu Gaochi smiled and said: "Strictly enforce military discipline and treat sergeants well. I hope to see the Ming army do these two things. Please do your best."
The martial arts officers responded one after another, but the civil servants were silent, and finally Lu Zhen left the shift, which made people feel surprised.
Is this going to war?
Lu Zhen came out of the class and said: "Your Majesty, Lord Yansheng was originally a second-rank. Your Majesty, you gave him a first-rank gold weaving clothes, which is too thick."
Well!
The officials were dumbstruck for a moment, and then began to mutter in a low voice, the buzzing sound echoed in the hall.
Yan Shenggong is the spiritual leader of the literati in the world. You, Lu Zhen, actually said that His Majesty rewarded you too generously. Which side are you on? Are you crazy?
I thought so in my heart, but no one came out to refute it.
What are you refuting? The second-rank title rewards the first-rank golden weaving clothes, this is indeed a bit too thick!
Just as the saying goes, Lu Zhen stood on the commanding height and looked down at the officials, but his expression was extremely solemn and upright.
Zhu Gaochi was stunned for a moment, his eyes turned, and he took all the expressions of the officials into his eyes, and then smiled and said: "Da Ming used the way of Confucius to rule the country and the world. You are disciples of Confucius, and there are also officials who live in the first rank. Why is it so honorable to offer sacrifices to the first teacher? Moreover, the late Emperor once bestowed five-rank civil servants with second-rank crowns and belts. This is just to show my admiration for Confucianism."
Lu Zhen bowed and went back to work.
The expressions of the ministers were a bit complicated, they felt that Zhu Gaochi was showing weakness on his own initiative.
I have stated that I want to worship Confucianism, everyone calm down and help each other.
As a result, the atmosphere in the hall gradually became harmonious, and the monarch and ministers were full of smiles. After discussing a few things casually, Zhu Gaochi ordered the ministers to disperse.
Walking out of the Qianqing Palace, the sun was actually a little bright, and everyone's mood couldn't help but become clearer with the weather.
Zhang Fu walked up to Jin Zhong's side, but didn't help him, but said: "Master Jin, last time when Dehua was around, he mentioned the matter of the army's lack of morale, but this matter was disturbed by... .”
"A battle between civil and military?"
Jin Zhong squinted his eyes and looked ahead, the deep wrinkles on his face reminded people of the thousand-year-old tree.
"We can't fight any more!"
Jin Zhong stomped on his numb legs, his eyes were bleak, "The first emperor defeated the foreign enemies, but seeing that the internal fighting is about to intensify again, Dehua told me at the time that foreign enemies can never defeat our Daming, The only thing that can defeat us is ourselves. Infighting!"
"Infighting will lead to corruption. Unless there is a king like the first emperor, it will be difficult to clean up the dilapidated rivers and mountains."
Zhang Fu said indifferently: "The civil servants started the fight first. If we back down, Mr. Jin, Daming will be in danger."
"The old man knows."
Jin Zhong rubbed his eyes, picked out a small piece of eye gum, and sighed: "You are martial arts, it is not good to interfere in political affairs, the old man can't support it alone!"
Zhang Fu felt desolate in his heart, he stopped, and watched Jin Zhong staggering out, somehow, he felt a little depressed.
Civil officials were invincible in the battle with Wu Xun, but they immediately changed their course and started from the emperor.
This is the struggle for power. Although there is no blood, it is more bloody than a battle!
Meng Ying followed, and seeing Zhang Fu's melancholy appearance, she said, "The imperial court is lifeless. If this continues, we will all have to stand aside. This is how to moisten things silently! Speaking of which, we are still no match for the civil servants. Look, they didn't use any means, and Wu Xun gradually faded away, hey!"
