Chapter 289 I have no objection when Zhanchang becomes emperor
Yu Qian interrupted, "Prince Han is about to throw it out to feed the fishes. Prince Han is not used to you. He doesn't have those tricks of verbal confrontation in the court. Besides, the two sides are still at war with each other. If you kill an official of yours, he will be Han."
Can the prince still be afraid?
Zhu Zhanzhen stretched out his hand to stop Zhu Gaoxu's guards.
"Second uncle, it's not okay to keep people from talking. I brought Yu Qian here, and I have to bring them back safely."
Zhu Gaoxu waved his hand and told the guards to retreat.
"Don't pick up random words while we're talking, and watch your head."
Faced with Zhu Gaoxu Hong Guoguo's warning, Yu Qian said neither humble nor overbearing: "The Han prince has biased words, but he has no good way to govern the country."
Yu Qian's words became even more serious. Zhu Gaoxu looked at him angrily, but seeing that Zhu Zhanzhen did not stop Yu Qian, he understood that these two people were just letting me sing a double yellow.
If Yu Qian really said it alone, Zhu Zhanzhen must have stopped him at this time. After all, he has a bad temper and it is possible to kill Yu Qian.
"Then I want to see what these two people want to do?" Zhu Gaoxu sneered in his heart.
Zhu Gaoxu was neither anxious nor annoyed: "Mr. Yu said that I don't have a good way to govern the country. Could you please tell me what I said wrong just now?"
"The prince just said that His Royal Highness is cleaning up some dirty places in Yingtian Mansion. Isn't this a matter of service to the country and the people?" Yu Qianyi said righteously.
What he said made Zhu Zhanzhen speechless. It was a bit different from the plan.
The original plan of the two of them was to let Yu Qian argue with Prince Han and then bring up the matter of the fiefdom, but now it is obvious that the crooked building has been more serious from the beginning.
When people talk about national affairs, you come up and say that girls selling their amulets is not in line with the current national conditions of the Ming Dynasty. Isn't this a crooked story?
Moreover, have you told Prince Han about this matter?
As the saying goes, practice is the only criterion for testing truth. Without investigation and research, there is no right to speak.
Prince Han smiled disdainfully: "Dirty? A brothel is filthy?"
“How come the place where men are thieves and women are prostitutes is not filthy?”
"Never been there?" Prince Han asked again.
"Hmph, how can we who read the books of sages miss such a fireworks alley? We have never been there!"
Prince Han shook his head: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, several members of the cabinet have been there, and I didn't see anything that would hinder them."
"Prince Han, please do not wrongly accuse your cabinet ministers."
"I haven't seen the others with my own eyes. Xia Yuanji went to see them with my own eyes."
"Wei Chen doesn't believe it."
"Throw it out to feed the fish." Prince Han once again ordered his subordinate Yu Qian to go out and feed the fish.
Zhu Zhanzhen had no choice but to come out again to smooth things over: "Second uncle, don't just feed the fish. The fish in the West Lake are all vegetarian."
"Fish are vegetarian, but I am not vegetarian. Xia Yuanji has been there, and I have seen it with my own eyes."
Zhu Zhanzhen had no choice but to pull out Xia Yuanji's old background. He looked at Yu Qian and said: "Yu Qian, food and sex are human nature. I think what my second uncle said is right."
Yu Qian lost his temper and seemed to have forgotten his mission. He did not understand what Zhu Zhanyi was reminding him. On the contrary, even Zhu Zhanyi also taught him a lesson: "Your Highnesses hold high positions and must consider the people.
Liu Di, how many innocent women have lost their virginity there, human traffickers, and abducted and trafficked women from good families emerge in endlessly. It is filthy, dirty, and extremely corrupt. How can such a place be on the map?"
Zhu Gaoxu was stunned for a moment, then he laughed and said to Zhu Zhanzhen: "How come you were taught a lesson by Master Yu?" This time, Zhu Gaoxu was confused about what Yu Qian and Zhu Zhanzhen were fighting.
Notice.
Zhu Zhanchen smiled helplessly.
Yu Qian continued to talk: "How many of the women in brothels were caught and forced to live in brothels? The Ming Dynasty is so powerful now, the people of the Ming Dynasty should be respected more. The laws of the Ming Dynasty clearly stipulate that people with good status are not allowed to be bought or sold.
, the brothel is the sludge of the Ming Dynasty under this bright sky."
Seeing that Yu Qian was excited and spoke fiercely, Zhu Gaoxu was not angry anymore.
In Zhu Gaoxu's eyes, Yu Qian is now the same as those stupid young people. His mind is full of academic principles in books and lacks the fireworks of the world.
What's the use of arguing with you? Zhu Gaoxu stood up, waved over a long-legged beauty, poured the wine on her collarbone, and drank it all in one gulp. Yu Qian couldn't bear to look directly at this fragrant scene.
"I ask you why you ended up in a brothel. You must not lie." Zhu Gaoxu raised the beauty's chin to ask the question, but looked at Yu Qian.
"Back to your lord, my daughter has been in poverty since she was a child. She has two brothers in the family. In order to let the brothers marry, my parents cruelly sent me to a brothel." The woman replied with a slight smile, and there was no longer any intention of complaining in her eyes.
"Next."
The woman walked back, and a woman next to her walked up to Prince Han and bowed slightly.
"Tell me why you ended up in a brothel. Don't lie. Let Master Yu listen."
"The little girl's father is a gambler. The family is in ruins and has no support. Her fiance broke up the marriage. My father lost money at the gambling table. My mother and I were used to pay off the debt. Between the maid and the girl from the brothel, the little girl chose by herself.
.”
"Why did you choose this job of selling yourself?"
"I feel that I am somewhat pretty. After I make money, I can redeem myself and use some money to do some business and find a way out. I am afraid that I will not be able to make a career as a maid."
Zhu Gaoxu rewarded her with a few taels of silver, and she hurriedly thanked her.
At this time, Zhu Gaoxu looked at Yu Qian with some provocation, and continued to pull a girl over.
"Tell me why you ended up in a brothel. Don't lie."
"The little girl was married at the age of fifteen, but her husband died of illness and vomited blood on the day of the wedding. My husband's family said that I was the fate of my husband and wanted to sell me, so I ran away and was taken in by my sister from the brothel.
I sold twenty taels on the first night, which was more than five times the original dowry of my husband's family, so I sent the dowry money back to my husband's family, and the whole village laughed at my husband's daughter-in-law for cooking chicken."
Hearing this, Yu Qian yelled: "Shameless!"
But obviously Zhu Gaoxu ignored it and continued to pull a woman over and asked the same question.
"My little girl has no father or mother. If someone gives me a bite to eat, I have to make money for them."
Zhu Gaoxu asked one by one, and the reasons were summarized as his father was gambling on his mother's sick brother's study. These reasons were mainly different from Yu Qian's belief that they were all abducted by traffickers.
"Master Yu, what do you think? Each of these people has their own reasons. Can you solve them one by one?"
"I...I..." Yu Qian was speechless for a moment.
Zhu Gaoxu stood up, as if he was prepared, and raised his wine glass, as if he was ordering troops on the battlefield.
"Why did Zhu Zhanji clean up the brothels and casinos in Yingtian Mansion?"
"Does he want to do things for the people? Does he want to clean up the filth? Does he want to clean up the world?"
"No! He's not, he doesn't have this heart. As my eldest nephew, he only has the throne in his eyes. He does this just to make the civil and military officials of the dynasty feel right. What he did is right. Every one of his civil servants has been to a brothel.
We said righteously in the court that Your Highness did the right thing and did a good job."
Zhu Gaoxu's tone was full of ridicule and ridicule. He looked down on people like Zhu Zhanji from the bottom of his heart. He felt that people like Zhu Zhanji would give up anything for the throne.
The intelligence he displayed and the benevolence he displayed were all for the sake of the throne. No one could clearly see what kind of person he was.
"He only does superficial things. Does he think about the people? Does he really want to solve the livelihood problems of these people? He cracked down once, and a group of girls lost their livelihood and lived outside. After he left, he didn't know that he would relapse.
He knows it all, but he will not change the fundamentals. It will be tiring, it will hurt the bones, and it may touch the interests of his loyal ministers and generals in the court. As a descendant of the royal family who considers himself wise, he
I will definitely "listen carefully" to the opinions of those ministers."
Zhu Gaoxu's words really shocked Zhu Zhanzhen. Looking at the usually careless King of Han, he actually had an unusually high level of insight.
Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaochi were all heirs of vassal princes when they were young, but Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Di had already been in control since Zhu Zhanji was enlightened, and then when he became emperor, he was specially trained as a grandson. What did those people teach him?
Teach him the Four Books and Five Classics, teach him literature and rituals, teach him strategies to fool the people, and teach him how to balance the court.
These can help him become a good emperor, this is correct.
But there may be differences between what a young and upright official like Yu Qian thinks.
What Zhu Gaoxu said left Yu Qian speechless. Zhu Zhanzhen wanted to speak, but Zhu Gaoxu walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder: "If you really do practical things for the people, look at your Highness.
, these are the people who really do things for the people.”
"Second uncle, you suddenly praised me, and my nephew felt very panicked."
As soon as he heard Zhu Gaoxu praising himself, Zhu Zhanzhen knew that something was wrong. The second uncle in front of him seemed to have changed. Is this still the speechless Prince Han who was criticized by the civil servants in the court? Now he can speak well.
Debian actually made Yu Qian, who was a Jinshi, speechless.
It's not that Yu Qian is ungrateful, but that their experiences are very different.
Yu Qian is a loyal and upright man, but he knows almost nothing about the ways of this dirty world.
"Do you know why I don't have a good relationship with Zhu Zhanji, but my relationship with Zhan Chen is so good?" Zhu Gaoxu asked Yu Qian again.
Yu Qian naturally wanted to say that it was because Zhu Zhanzhen was not a threat to Zhu Gaoxu, but he did not say anything. He did not want to talk about these royal family matters.
Zhu Gaoxu shook his finger and said: "Are you afraid to say or do you not know? But it is different from what you think. I am a rough man. I don't have as many tricks as you do. I am close to Zhan Yu.
Even though this kid can sometimes play tricks, just like this time I brought you here, the two of them must have wanted to perform a double sex and then try to persuade me to surrender. He was very vain, but he just gave birth to a good face.
It makes people feel that he is an upright person.”
"but……"
Zhu Gaoxu said, but he went to pour another glass of wine and drank it in one gulp: "But, this boy treats me as his uncle and his family member. If he kills me, he will be on the throne tomorrow. That boy Zhan Ji will take it the next moment."
He could kill me with a knife, but Zhan Zhen is different, at least he can hesitate for two or three days."
"Second uncle, that's impossible. I'm not that kind of person."
"Look, this sentence is false again." Zhu Gaoxu laughed, and while he was laughing and cursing, he saw a few people clearly.
"So, the old man also said that Zhan Yun is most like my eldest brother. Although I scold my eldest brother every day for being hypocritical and hypocritical, I know that after all, he cares about brotherhood and his father's kindness. Even if I lose in a fight, he is the most
Even if I am under house arrest, I will not be treated badly in terms of food and clothing, and if I show it to the minister, he himself will not feel guilty."
"But Zhanji, my eldest nephew, the more I get to know him, the more scared I become. This kid has learned all about his father's pretense. He is no worse than me in fighting. He has a way of winning over people's hearts. He is cruel and very cruel.
Cruel." Zhu Gaoxu expressed his evaluation of Zhu Zhanji.
He pulled Zhu Zhanyi to his feet again, and continued to say to Yu Qian: "There is no need to say anything to persuade him to surrender. I can surrender, and I will surrender tomorrow, but you go back and help me bring a message to my elder brother, asking him to surrender."
As a condition for making him the crown prince, I agreed that I would stand on a thorn bush to plead guilty the next day and go to Fengtian Hall to kowtow to him and shout long live."
Damn it
Zhu Zhanzhen almost cursed his mother out. The second uncle was clearly trying to sow discord and make himself the prince. What the hell is the surrender condition? It was clear that he would not surrender.
"Besides, if you go back and report the news like this, if Zhan Zhen can stop thinking about you when he becomes the emperor, then if he becomes the emperor, you can become a minister or directly join the cabinet." The second uncle lied to Yu Qian.
Zhu Gaochi didn't learn Zhu Di's skill in painting cakes, but Zhu Gaoxu did learn a little bit, but the painting was rather crooked.
The people in the cabinet are a little afraid of Zhu Zhanxu now. If Zhu Gaoxu really puts forward this condition, it is impossible for him to agree. But when he puts it forward after arriving in Hangzhou, what do they think? Is he colluding with Zhu Gaoxu?
?
This is not a fight to the death.
"Second uncle, if you say that, wouldn't it be forcing me to die?" Zhu Zhanzhen said with a distressed face: "I have no intention of persuading you to surrender. The matter between you and my father and eldest brother is very serious.
Don't count me in."
"I'm doing it for your own good. Everyone will be happy if you become the emperor. You also have the ability to be this emperor, and I know that you really want to do things for the people. If I make a fuss, you will create a prosperous age in the future, and I will also be famous.
Why not leave a good story in the history of youth?" Zhu Gaoxu said with a hearty smile.
"Second uncle, please stop joking, I don't want to be the emperor."
"There is no one who doesn't want to be the emperor. Don't be afraid. If someone is dissatisfied, my second uncle will help you fight back."
This nonsense is even more unbelievable. Zhu Gaoxu first wrote to Zhu Zhanchun, saying that he would be emperor and divide the world equally with Zhu Zhanchun. He also said that he would be emperor for a few years and passed it on to him. Now he also said that he should be promoted to emperor. The ultimate goal is still
Rather than win over him, bring him into the same camp, and by the way, bring chaos to Zhu Gaochi's family.
Whenever Zhu Zhanzhen wanted to be emperor, and there was a big brother like Zhu Zhanji above him blocking his way, he had to find a way to give it a try.
Zhu Zhanzhen sighed and said: "Second uncle, you still said that I came here for nothing, please stop coming here for me."
"Who says this is false? These are my surrender conditions, and there is no need to discuss anything else." Zhu Gaoxu's attitude was very tough.
Zhu Zhanchen simply spread his hands and said: "Keep playing music and keep dancing. I had no intention of successfully persuading him to surrender. Now that people are here, we can do business. There is no need to make my second uncle and I unhappy. Don't talk about that.
Sorry, there are so many beautiful girls, don’t waste them."
"Come on, come on, this girl is drinking with me. As for you, your husband's family said you could kill your husband. I'm very tough and I'm not afraid of killing you. Come and give it a try."
The woman took advantage of the situation and lay down in her arms delicately: "Your Highness, your words are a bit vulgar, but I like it.
Zhu Gaoxu was stunned and saw that Zhu Zhanxi was drinking and having fun. He thought he had prepared a set for Zhu Zhanxu. Even Yu Qian was stunned by him, but he didn't expect that Zhu Zhanxu would just start showing off.
.
An attitude of, forget it, I don’t care, do whatever you want.
