Chapter 543: Yu Shaobao Files a Complaint with the Emperor!
"Without selfish desires, what is there to fear!"
Tie Xuan and Ma Quan turned their heads when they heard the words of the young scholar behind them.
The expressions on their faces were different.
Ma Quan curled his lips and secretly mocked: They are indeed some hot-blooded young men.
When he was young, he was like this.
He had this idea.
But after going through the many obstacles in the imperial examination, breaking through the siege from the single-plank bridge, and entering the officialdom, he realized how embarrassing the words he said when he was young and young were.
The great principles taught by the saints are all nonsense.
He was deeply impressed by his first lesson in the official career.
At that time, the Ming Dynasty had just been established.
Your Majesty was strict with himself and at the same time, he was very strict with officials.
He was appointed.
Served as a local county magistrate.
At that time, the Ming Dynasty had experienced wars and was in ruins, and countless hungry people caused by the war were crying for food.
The land was devastated.
But in his county, the first places to recover were the brothels.
The prefect, in the name of inspecting the county, came to the county with yellow earth paved streets, clean water sprinkled on the road, and gongs and drums.
At that time, he was still young and thought that the prefect had brought money and food, and brought a good prescription and medicine to quickly restore the place.
He was quite excited.
It was the old county magistrate at that time.
He was also his first master in the officialdom. He smiled and said to him a meaningful word: You are still too young.
That night, he understood what the old county magistrate meant.
That day.
He accompanied and witnessed with his own eyes that the prefect and the county magistrate, two old guys over 60 years old, with white beards, and I don’t know if they can stand up.
He didn’t go to inspect the hungry people.
After saying a bunch of meaningless official rhetoric.
At night, he went to the first place to recover.
He hugged several young girls of fourteen or fifteen years old and touched them all over.
And these women.
But they were all the victims who couldn't survive and were sold to these places of entertainment.
That night, he felt very uncomfortable, watching the two old guys with gray beards, talking nonsense, and felt nauseous and wanted to vomit.
It was in this discomfort that he wanted to vomit.
He finally understood the way of being an official.
It's nothing more than scheming and performing.
Look, he has now become a third-rank frontier official.
Both daughters married high, one became the concubine of the crown prince, and the other was not bad, becoming the main wife of another emperor's grandson.
This young man named Yu Qian, after entering the officialdom, will eventually encounter the things he encountered and make the changes he made.
After Ma Quan was briefly reminded of his youth by Yu Qian's words, he turned his head and looked away, not paying attention.
Tie Xuan looked at Yu Qian with some appreciation.
He waved to Yu Qian.
When Yu Qian walked quickly behind him and saluted half a step, he asked with a smile: "How can we, as ministers, be selfless in our hearts? Your Majesty is our king and father. How can we be selfless if we have the king and father in our hearts? If you really have selfless in your heart, will you be suspected of being disloyal to the king and father?"
At this moment, they have arrived at the door of the carriage.
Yu Qian stopped.
Waiting for Tie Xuan and Ma Quan to enter one after another, he quickly followed and said at the same time: "Students believe that in all dynasties, the loyalty of ministers to the king and father has been misinterpreted and misunderstood..."
Yu Qian suddenly paused while speaking.
Because, he entered the carriage.
He suddenly realized that there were dozens of eyes staring at him.
There were men and women.
I think they were the family of King Yan.
Those adult men and women should be the students of King Yan.
Yu Qian glanced at Dong Xu, Chun Xiao and others politely, and a touch of envy flashed in his eyes.
He was not envious that these new generation of young people who were older than him from Tuqiao Village had the opportunity to connect with King Yan.
Instead, he envied them for being taught by the Prince of Yan.
He had studied the two concepts and two propositions of the Prince of Yan countless times.
He had also copied and studied the articles and pamphlets that Yan Hua had quietly circulated countless times.
Especially the pamphlets on people's economy, elite economy, and monopoly elite economy written by the Prince of Yan.
The transcribed copies had been worn out by his flipping through them.
And the articles and transcribed copies that he cherished.
And the opportunity to consult the Prince of Yan at any time.
Yang Dongxu, Xia Yuanji and others could get them easily.
How could one not envy them.
Yu Qian was briefly distracted.
After coming back to his senses, he bowed solemnly to Xu Miaoyun's position, "Greetings, Princess."
This princess also deserves his respect.
The people of the Ming Dynasty all talked about the Prince of Yan's love for this princess.
The elites were all laughing at the Prince of Yan for being too pampered and spoiled with this princess, and the hero was short of breath.
But he didn't think so.
Behind every great ruler, there must be an extraordinary woman.
If this Princess of Yan is really the kind of woman who doesn't know how to be favored and used to it.
It is absolutely impossible for Yanhua to be so prosperous and harmonious now.
The princess of a country.
That is the model of the mother of the country!
"No need to be polite." Xu Miaoyun smiled softly and pointed to the carriage in front, "The prince is waiting for you in the carriage."
After Yu Qian and the other five bowed, they followed Tie Xuan and Ma Quan into the office carriage where Zhu Di was.
When Ma Quan was about to close the door.
Standing in front of the window.
Looking outside, along the railway line, in the densely packed shacks, Zhu Di saw the dirty heads popping up, as well as the dull and numb faces, and said: "Don't turn it off, turn it on so that Qihua, Dongxu, Yuanji and the others can also Listen to the thoughts of the scholars in the imperial court."
Ma Quan immediately stopped.
Yu Qian and the other five looked curiously at Zhu Di's majestic figure in front of the window.
Zhu Di turned around after a moment and glanced at the five elected scholar representatives.
The other four people were obviously very nervous, with their heads lowered, not daring to look directly at him.
But one of them, the youngest scholar, about fourteen or fifteen years old, actually looked at him with curious and scrutinizing eyes.
"Mom, this little skinny man is so brave. He dares to look at my father like this. Even Uncle Ye and Uncle Jiang don't dare to..."
Qihua looked curiously at the car in front of her through the open door, then leaned close to Xu Miaoyun and whispered softly.
The words are not finished yet.
Xu Miaoyun stared at him angrily and covered her mouth in fright.
inside the carriage.
A brief moment of silence, after the depression.
As a smile appeared on Zhu Di's lips, the atmosphere suddenly relaxed.
Zhu Di saw the five scholars about to salute, and pointed to the sofas placed on both sides, "You all sit down, there is no need to be polite."
After saying that, he walked behind the desk minding his own business.
He picked up the small kettle that was boiling on the small clay stove on the table.
…
Tie Xuan winked at Yu Qian and others.
After Yu Qian and the other five sat down.
He held his breath and watched Zhu Di standing behind the table, playing with tea leaves and tea sets, a set of smooth tea ceremony skills.
Looking at the other four scholars, they couldn't help but be fascinated.
Yu Qian frowned slightly.
Although Zhu Di lowered his head, he had been secretly watching a few scholars.
After washing the tea, several teacups were filled.
He raised his head and said, "Master Tie, please come and share these cups of tea with everyone."
"It's a worthwhile trip to be able to drink tea brewed by the prince himself." Tie Xuan stood up, jokingly smiled, and quickly distributed several cups of tea to everyone.
Zhu Di looked at Tie Xuan and shook his head with a smile: "I only heard people say that Tie Xuan is a strong leader. After so many years of not seeing him, it seems that his temper has become mellow. Yes, as an official and a man, keep the bottom line and principles. Only by embellishing it with a little roundness can you accomplish things in the officialdom and live a more satisfying life. "
Tie Xuan held the tea cup and nodded with a smile.
Out of the corner of his eye, he looked at Yu Qian, who was still frowning.
He couldn't help but shake his head.
In fact, he knew it very well.
This prince must have developed a love for talents.
The target, right now, is the young scholar whose brows furrowed even more after hearing what the prince said.
Unfortunately, the boy is still too young to understand the profound meaning of the prince's words.
He also went to Fujian in recent years and passed through Fujian to see how this prince governed Fujian in the past.
In Fujian, I got to know this person "up close" and how to build Yanhua overseas, and only then did things gradually change.
Zhu Di suddenly looked up, "Your name is Yu Qian, right?"
He heard this kid just now when he saluted Miaoyun.
"Student Yu Qian..."
Yu Qian hurriedly put the tea cup on the wide armrest beside him. When he was about to stand up, Zhu Di pressed his hand and said, "Just sit down and talk."
"I see you are frowning all the time. Why, you don't agree with what I said?"
The other four people looked at Yu Qian worriedly.
After Zhu Di saw the performance of the four people, he couldn't help but nodded.
It’s hard to say in the future.
But now, these four young people have good intentions.
Yu Qian was also very nervous at this moment. He subconsciously held the teacup with both hands, took a deep breath, and mustered up the courage to look at Zhu Di, "The student doesn't disagree, it's just...just..."
"It's just that the first impression the prince gave to the students was a little different from what the students imagined."
"Oh?" Zhu Di smiled and became interested, "How different it is, just say it casually, I am not the kind of person with a small belly and chicken intestines."
As he spoke, Zhu Di sat down, leaned back slightly, leaned on the armchair, and looked at Yu Qian with interest.
"Before meeting the prince, all the students' imaginations about the prince came from what the prince did."
Through what King Yan had done, he painted an impression of King Yan in his heart and mind.
"In the past, students thought that the prince was just a man who didn't pay much attention to food, clothing, daily life and behavior. He was no different from the common people, but he had the world in mind and was extremely wise."
"After meeting, there are many things about the prince, which are similar to what the students imagined. However, the complicated way of making tea by the prince just now is good-looking, but has a touch of nobility. It is not what the students imagined, and he can mingle with the people. The image doesn’t match.”
"What the prince said is to stick to the bottom line, stick to the principles, and have a little more roundness to embellish the way of being an official. It is also inconsistent with the students' imagination that the prince does not rub sand in his eyes and strictly rectifies the bureaucracy in Yanhua..."
Ha ha……
Zhu Di suddenly raised his head and laughed.
Outside.
Xu Miaoyun smiled.
A group of children in Qihua looked at Yu Qian dumbfounded.
Ma Quan looked at Yu Qian in shock.
He didn't expect that Yu Qian would dare to speak so openly in front of this person.
Back then, on that night at Fengyue Place, as the county magistrate, he did not dare to speak like this to the county magistrate and magistrate.
After Zhu Di smiled, he looked at Yu Qian and pointed to the complicated tea sets in front of him, "Whether we can be one with the people and sympathize with the people is not about these things. It's like, if we want to get together with the people, do we have to do it?" , just follow the example of the common people and make yourself dirty?”
As he spoke, Zhu Di pointed behind Yu Qian and outside the window.
Yu Qian turned his head and glanced.
Inside the shack area outside the window.
Dirty, dull and numb faces.
Zhu Di's voice sounded again, "Doing this will indeed allow the people to quickly become one with us, but this is civilization surrendering to ignorance. What is the purpose of us coming together with the people? To bring changes to the people, to bring Something better.”
"If we just dress up dirty and come together with the people, apart from winning people's hearts, what else can we change?"
"I was once demoted as a commoner and had several years of experience in rural areas. At that time, every spring in the village, I only cleaned my own section of the water canal. The public section had to be cleaned by the entire village and every household. I was young at the time and had nothing else. I still had a lot of strength. After I finished working on a section of the canal that belonged to my own farmland, I went to clean the public canal by myself. The uncles and aunts in the village saw it and all participated. This was also It has created an opportunity for the local village community in Tuqiao Village..."
…
"At that time, in the village, I always had to clean myself and my house clean. Our Miaoyun hadn't left at that time. Do you know that because of my performance, there were people in the village? All the aunts who were of marriageable age wanted to marry their daughters to me. You know, I declared to the outside world at the time that I was an orphan with no relatives, parents, brothers and sisters to help me. Such a person without relatives or friends was not a good choice in the village. He is very popular, but just because I have tidied myself up, not only have I not been ostracized, there are still many people who want me to be their son-in-law!”
…
"Mom, is this true?" Qihua, Jindouzi and others looked at Xu Miaoyun.
Xu Miaoyun smiled.
Beautiful eyes looked at Zhu Di with a smile.
My thoughts couldn't help but drift back to my time in the village.
Just listen, Zhu Di continues talking inside.
"Being an official and being more mellow does not mean that we should abandon our bottom line or principles, but that we can better handle things well and live a good life."
"Imagine that I was rectifying the bureaucracy in Yanhua with iron and blood. Under such circumstances, if I had a straight face in my daily contacts with officials and people, no matter how big or small, I would follow the rules. Aren’t all the officials below working with trepidation?”
"So, who would dare to do anything?"
"The same is true in officialdom. In principle, we cannot compromise, but in our daily interactions with colleagues, we might as well be more rounded and less sharp and prickly."
…
He really didn't want this good seedling to grow.
Follow in the footsteps of history again.
Yu Qian was silent for a long time, then stood up and said solemnly: "The student has been taught."
Zhu Di pressed his hand, and after Yi Qian sat down, he asked with a smile: "I vaguely heard what you just said, but I couldn't hear it clearly."
Tie Xuan looked at Yu Qian.
He also admires this young scholar very much now.
After repeating what just happened.
Zhu Di smiled and looked at Yu Qian, "I also want to hear your answer. Please continue talking. As long as your question satisfies me, I will agree to your request as long as I can do it!"
Yu Qian suddenly became energetic.
He took a sip of tea and put the tea cup next to him, "Master Tie asked the students, selflessness means not having a king and father in their hearts, and doesn't it mean they are disloyal to the king and father."
"The student believes that the understanding of loyalty to the king and father throughout the ages has been wrong!"
"As a minister, if you are loyal only out of consideration for your father's feelings and interests, this is wrong. At best, it can only be regarded as a small loyalty, a small way!"
“Students believe that the king and father are the lord of a country, a model for all people, and a concrete manifestation of the support of the people. To be loyal to the king and father, an official must first keep all people in his heart, and proceed from the emotions and interests of all people. Loyalty to your father is the greatest loyalty and the brightest path!"
…
Outside.
Dongxu, Yuanji and others nodded after hearing this.
Jin Douzi murmured in a low voice, "This guy stayed in the Ming Dynasty, persisted in this way, and kept an official career with twists and turns, and his fate is ill-fated!"
Xu Miaoyun laughed angrily, and glared at Jindouzi in anger and amusement.
She didn't even know what went wrong during her pregnancy.
Jindouzi has had a venomous tongue since he was a child!
Yu Qian watched Zhu Di nodding his head, stood up quickly, and bowed solemnly, "Please take me to Jinling, your lord, to file a complaint!"
Plop!
Yu Qian knelt down.
puff!
Ma Quan was drinking tea. When he heard this, he spit out all the tea in a mouthful.
He looked at Zhu Di nervously.
The scholars under his rule will go to Jinling to file a petition.
Wouldn’t this cost him his life?
The prince probably won’t agree.
After all, if the prince gets involved, it will be like the prince slapping the prince in the face!
He even suspected that these young scholars were instigated by conservatives!
After all, once King Yan gets involved in this matter, it will make the relationship between King Yan and the prince even worse.
But His Majesty was about to die.
The prince had great power and was already suspicious of King Yan.
At this time, it would be dangerous for King Yan to come back and interfere with this matter again.
How much brotherhood is left in the prince's heart? If brotherhood is reduced, the other side of the scale, the weight of suppressing or even eliminating the King of Yan, will remain unchanged, and the scale will tilt.
The trip of the King of Yan to Nanjing will only be more dangerous.
If the tunnel explosion is added, the situation will be tense.
It can be said to add fuel to the fire.
The King of Yan will not agree, right?
