My Brother-in-law is the Prince Chapter 209

  Chapter 209 Dragon Heart Joy

  Zhu Di said: "I want to know what you have learned."

   As he spoke, he looked at Chen Yan and said, "Chen Qing's family, what did you teach him a few days ago?"

   "Your Majesty, it is Zi Zhi Tong Jian, Tang Ji, fifty-seven volumes."

  Zhu Di nodded, then looked at Zhu Zhanji again, and said, "Have you learned it?"

  Zhu Zhanji immediately said: "Of course I learned it. I even read through the fifty-eight volumes of the Tang Dynasty."

  Zhu Di glanced at Chen Yan.

  Chen Yan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the emperor's grandson hasn't learned that yet."

  Zhu Di said: "Who taught you?"

  Zhu Zhanji said: "I read it myself, and occasionally ask Uncle."

  Zhu Di frowned, a little suspicious, so he said: "What is it talking about here?"

   "It's about what happened in the first year of Changqing in the Tang Dynasty."

  Zhu Di: "..."

Zhu Zhanji said: "From the beginning of autumn in July of the first year of Changqing, at first it was said that there were sergeants in Heshuo who committed crimes, so according to the law, they should be punished by military law. But the sergeants in Heshuo Town refused to accept it, so they rebelled. They stormed into the mansion overnight, plundered wealth and women, and killed Wei Yong, Cui Zhongqing, etc. who were the staff of the Jiedushi. But the next day, the soldiers who rebelled regretted it again, and went to plead guilty to the Jiedushi. The Jiedu envoy scolded them, saying: "How dare you rebel, you will destroy the whole family." After he finished saying this, the rebellious soldiers killed the Jiedu envoy together."

  Zhu Di frowned, then looked back at Chen Yan: "Is that so?"

  Chen Yan suddenly broke out in sweat, but there was no way to explain these things, so he could only say: "Yes."

  Zhu Di stared at Zhu Zhanji: "What is the reason for this rebellion?"

  Zhu Zhanji said: "Yes... yes..."

  He was a little timid. After all, he knew he was a child, so he didn't have much confidence in the answer.

  Zhu Di said: "Chen Qing's family, come and talk to him."

Chen Yandao: "This is the result of poor education. The soldiers don't know what loyalty is. Naturally, they will also have a rebellious heart. Throughout the Tang Dynasty, the warriors made rebellions. I don't know how many. Enlightenment. It can be seen that if we want peace in the world, culture and education are the first-class things in the world. The sages often say that rituals and music are broken, but it is actually because of this.”

  He answered simply and neatly.

  Zhu Di was thoughtful.

   Then he looked at Zhu Zhanji and said, "Do you understand?"

   Zhu Zhanji lowered his head and said, "I understand."

  Zhu Di bulged his eyes and said: "At last you have opened up a little bit, at least you have learned something..."

   "But..." Zhu Zhanji said hesitantly: "But Sun Chen feels that things are not that simple."

   Zhu Di looked at Zhu Zhanji: "What did you say?"

"Sun Chen feels...the so-called emphasizing culture and education...seems too simple. It seems that as long as there is something bad, the master will use the three words "emphasizing culture and education" to explain it. It seems that as long as we emphasize culture and education, all problems can be solved. If it is true Simple, so many emperors in the Tang Dynasty, are they all so stupid that they don't know the benefits? How can there be repeated military disasters?”

  After listening to Chen Yan, he was furious. In his opinion, these words were deviant.

  Zhu Di became a little interested: "It seems that you have your own ideas?"

When Zhu Di said this, Zhu Zhanji felt encouraged, and felt a little more confident in his heart, so he said: "When looking at this matter, you should first understand...why the rebellious soldiers want to rebel, why the generals can't restrain them, And why the imperial court can't do anything about them. When the masters taught Sun Chen, Sun Chen only felt that thousands of people in the world... all became one, and all belonged to soldiers and civilians..."

  Zhu Di frowned, but listened carefully.

Zhu Zhanji went on to say: "Therefore, there have been many unbelievable things for Sun Chen. Although the masters always talk about the common people, what are the common people? In the past few days, Sun Chen suddenly understood...it turns out that they themselves I don't know what the people are, but I always know that as long as the thousands of people in the world are classified as the people, it will be good to say that they are lenient for the people."

   "But in reality... In fact, people are not wood, nor are they words in a book. They are all human beings, just like Xiao Liuer. Humans have their own thoughts, thoughts, emotions, sorrows, and joys."

"Those rebellious soldiers, they are classified as rebellious soldiers in the Zizhi Tongjian, and the words are vague, as if they are rebellious soldiers, and their appearance is disgusting. But Sun Chen thinks that there are thousands of them, and some of them may be coerced. Some people may have been treated unfairly by the generals in the past, so they have complained for a long time. There are also some people who may have evil intentions and have long wanted to rob."

"These tens of thousands of people have their own thoughts, but because of one reason, they suddenly became violent. Sun Chen thought... there are many of them who lack concern for the soldiers, and there are also appointed generals who ignore the interests of the soldiers. It is impossible to clearly distinguish rewards and punishments, so it is for the sake of those who have the heart to take advantage of it."

  Zhu Di fell into deep thought, and was stunned for a moment.

  He looked at Zhu Zhanji with strange eyes.

Chen Yan's face was ashen, it was obviously one thing, but Zhu Zhanji analyzed the opposite result. The original intention of Zizhi Tongjian was to learn from the emperor, and all the things recorded in it were actually to let the emperor learn from history. There are lessons, and from the Confucian point of view, they are obviously ready-made.

  Zhu Di said at this time: "You continue to talk."

"So Sun Chen thought that it might be that the imperial court ignored the interests of the soldiers and chose Jiedu envoys with unclear rewards and punishments. Therefore, the soldiers have been disappointed with the imperial court and the Jiedu envoys, and they have no trust at all. They would rather believe that rebellion can be rewarded. What they want, they can't count on the justice of the imperial court and the Jiedushi, so... they have the idea of ​​causing chaos."

  Zhu Di was shocked: "Why do you have such an idea?"

Zhu Zhanji said: "Because when Sun Chen was imprisoned in the East Palace, he would be like Master Chen. He only regarded the generals and the people as a vocabulary. As long as he spoke kindly to them, they would obey them and talk to them to educate them. So they Then he will be grateful to Dade. But Sun Chen later found out that this is wrong. This is the way of herding sheep. Sheep are weak and stupid, so as long as there is a head sheep and a shepherd dog, they can be made to obey. But Sun Chen is here, uncle with Sun Chen met all kinds of people, and Sun Chen realized that they are different from each other. Xiao Liuer thought that if he could eat enough, it would be great if he could go to school..."

"Steel-making apprentices want to be a teacher earlier and increase their salaries. Some craftsmen A and B are worried that their daughter-in-law has not yet given birth to a child, and some hope that their son will not be idle. The old woman who picks coal has a husband illness, I hope I can quickly save money to cure my husband's illness, and... and..."

  Zhu Di was dumbfounded and said, "Then what should we do?"

Zhu Zhanji scratched his head and said: "Sun Chen didn't think about it. Sun Chen just felt that many things were wrong. Some things he saw were compared with the book. I read it, but I feel that this book is too absurd and has nothing to say!"

"Just like Master Chen, he is lenient at every turn... How is this possible? Sun Chen has come into contact with some people, many people... wishing for severe punishment and strict laws, so as not to have some young people and some wicked young people who do evil at every turn. The government has nothing to do with them."

"As for the light taxation, everyone has different ideas. Some just think that it is best not to pay taxes, but some complain, saying that it is why the people who are connected to the fields have almost no taxes, but they have to pay heavy taxes. Zi Zhi In Tongjian...every sentence, if you only read it in the East Palace, you may think it makes sense, and every sentence in it is full of deep meaning..."

   "It can be placed in Qixia, and placed in many places, and there are a lot of things that are very ridiculous."

  Zhu Di said with great interest: "It seems that you still have a lot to learn. Look, you can't find an effective method yourself."

  Zhu Zhanji said: "But Sun Chen thinks...it's right that he can't find an effective method."

  Zhu Di looked at Zhu Zhanji with weird eyes: "Is it right to not find a way?"

"Things in the world...Although they may be similar things, they cannot be exactly the same after all. Because the participants are different, everyone has different ideas, and their expectations are different. The most effective way is to solve it completely? Just like Xiao Liuer, there are actually many children of his age. They may all be collecting coal. Logically speaking, they can all be called "poor children", but Some poor children just want to save some money and give it to their parents. Some want to save some money to study, and some want to reward themselves after paying their salary..."

   "That's why Sun Chen thought that each of them has different expectations. If you use one method to satisfy them, it may only make everyone unsatisfied in the end."

  Zhu Di smiled and said, "According to what you said, there is no need to do anything?"

Zhu Zhanji immediately shook his head and said: "No, but you shouldn't be like Master Chen, sitting in the study every day, imagining what people like Xiao Liu'er expect, and then imposing it on them. Instead, really go and see what they think , depending on the circumstances.”

  Zhu Di was shocked for a moment: "You came up with this?"

  Zhu Zhanji Qiqi Ai said: "Some are what my uncle told me, some are what I have seen and heard, and some... I got it after I had the knowledge and went to look for the answer."

  After listening to Chen Yan, he was so heartbroken that he wanted to beat his chest and fall, but he opened his mouth to say something, but found that the grandparent and grandson in front of him didn't even talk to him.

  Zhu Di put his hands behind his back and said, "You always talk about Xiao Liuer, who is this Xiao Liuer?"

   "The partner who picked coal with Sun Chen." Zhu Zhanji said cheerfully: "He taught me how to pick coal, and I gave him popsicles to eat."

   Picking up coal?

  Zhu Di's face changed suddenly.

  Chen Yan's expression also changed.

  Zhu Di said: "What kind of coal are you picking?"

"The burning coal, doesn't the emperor even understand coal? It is used for steelmaking... Coal is dug out from the mine and then sorted. Uncle said that our coal washing skills are still very rough, so in order to prevent too much The coal with impurities is sent into the furnace, making the quality of the steel unstable, so the coal needs to be picked first..."

   "Sun Chen is not good at collecting coal. He can pick up more than three hundred catties in one hour. Xiao Liuer is very good. He can pick up eight hundred catties in one hour..."

   Speaking of this, Chen Yan's body was shocked, and Ai Ai said in the later period: "This...this...the body of the emperor's daughter, how can...can..."

  Chen Yan continued heartbroken: "The emperor's grandson is so young, the heaven and the nobles... can... can..."

  Zhu Di froze in place.

   Sure enough, he found that his grandson was thinner than before, and his hands...

  Zhu Di stepped forward, took Zhu Zhanji's hand, and opened his palm, but saw several thin calluses growing on this little hand.

  Chen Yan hated Zhang Anshi to the core, and said at this time: "Your Majesty... Great treason, this is great treason..."

  He started choking up...

   Zhu Di was really furious.

  He shouted angrily: "Beast!"

  As soon as this remark came out.

  Zhang Anshi subconsciously put his head in his hands, only regretting that he didn't wear armor to go out.

  The next moment...aah...

  But seeing Zhu Di backhanded, he swung his arm fiercely, and punched Chen Yan directly in the face.

   This punch hit Chen Yan's mouth.

  Chen Yan flew straight out, and what followed was a front tooth. When he landed with a bang, he covered his mouth.

  Gental blood dripping from between his fingers.

  Chen Yan said a few words...

  Tears and snot, mixed with blood, made a paste on the front door.

   With great difficulty, he was able to barely control his voice, so that he would not lose his voice due to the leaky front teeth, and said sadly and ashamedly: "Your Majesty... what do you mean?"

  Zhu Di glared at him and scolded: "A rebellion? How dare you say a rebellion?"

  Chen Yan's gentleness and disgrace, it seems that he has suffered a great humiliation at this time, and he is also a bachelor of the Imperial Academy.

  Zhu Di sneered at him.

  At this time, Zhang Anshi had already breathed a sigh of relief, and then he and Zhu Zhanji took a step back at the same time. The two of them just squatted in a corner and started to appreciate something.

   "Don't look, close your eyes, anyway, he is also your master." Zhang Anshi said softly.

  Zhu Zhanji's eyes are wide open, without blinking: "It's rare to see him because he is a master."

  People's sorrows and joys are not interlinked.

  At least at this time, Chen Yan was crying and crying: "What I said is heartfelt... Your Majesty..."

Zhu Di said angrily with a cold face: "When Emperor Taizu Gao was the first emperor, he sent us princes to Fengyang, the central capital, and taught us princes to stay in Fengyang and learn to cultivate. I can learn to cultivate, I What's wrong with my grandson picking up coal? If you say this is treason, do you still want to say that emperor Gao, the great ancestor, is also treason? Who are you trying to slander?”

  After listening to Chen Yan, he suddenly felt thunderbolt.

  Actually... He knew about this.

  But...although a Qingliu minister like him, although very interesting, chose to avoid talking about the deeds of Emperor Taizu Gao.

  In his heart, it was because he disapproved of Emperor Taizu Gao's deeds very much, and even thought... what Emperor Taizu Gao did could be described in terms of tyranny.

  Because of thinking this way, Emperor Taizu Gao sent his prince to Fengyang to reclaim wasteland. In his mind, it was essentially a ridiculous thing, at least in terms of etiquette...it shouldn't be so.

  As a result... it was precisely because of his true inner thoughts that he ignored these things, and instead directly angered Zhu Di now.

  At this time, Zhu Di said angrily: "Your is my grandson's doctor, I shouldn't have punished you, but you dare to slander Emperor Gao, the great ancestor, how can I give up on you?"

  Zhu Di is the most filial among Zhu Yuanzhang's more than 20 children.

   At least nominally.

   As a result, you dared to dig the root of Emperor Yongle.

  Looking at Zhu Di's increasingly sinister gaze, Chen Yan trembled in fright: "Chen...Chen..."

  Zhu Di scolded angrily: "Your mother, a disloyal person like you dare to teach my grandson! My grandson fell into the hands of a thief like you, can you still learn?"

  Chen Yan kowtowed, and his face was already pale: "I am guilty of death."

  Zhu Di said angrily: "Forget his official, let him go. This thief is unfaithful and unjust, he is unfaithful as a minister, and it seems that he is not filial as a son. Send him back to his original place as an official, and all his descendants will be officials!"

  Chen Yan never expected such a consequence, endured the pain, and still begged for mercy.

  Yi Shiha's face turned cold at this moment, he raised his head slightly, and winked at the guards.

  The guard immediately cut his hands back and pulled them apart.

  Chen Yan shouted: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."

  The guard was afraid that he would disturb Sheng Jia again, so he punched him in the face. This time, more than half of his teeth fell out, and there was no more humming.

  At this time, Zhu Zhanji rubbed his eyes and said, "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo... my Master Chen."

  The sound is very soft.

  Zhu Di turned his head and glanced at Zhu Zhanji: "You kid, no matter what the reason is, it's not good to hang around all day long. What if you encounter danger? Do you think you are me?"

Zhang Anshi quickly criticized Zhu Zhanji: "Yes, Uncle has been persuading you and telling you not to come here all the time. Uncle knows that you want to learn skills, but you are still young after all. If you have something good or bad, how can you get it?" You are not Your Majesty. Your Majesty is a man of great fortune and good fortune. When Jingnan was in trouble, how many times he escaped death and dared to enter the bandit camp to investigate the reality of the enemy camp alone. Can you learn this? Which of us has Your Majesty's ability! Your Majesty, don't worry, I will not teach him to come here in the future, if he dares to come, I will report to His Majesty immediately, Your Majesty just relax."

  Zhu Zhanji: "..."

Zhang Anshi then continued: "However...Your Majesty, to be honest, the emperor is willing to come here to suffer. The suffering of the people...he is also willing to enjoy it. It can be seen that the emperor's heart is still good. If it were another child... then he would not Well, I wish I could spend my whole life in the gentle village, stretching out my hands and opening my mouth, I think...forget about it. Give Eunuch Yishiha a face."

  Yi Shiha's face turned green, what does this have to do with us?

   Ke mentioned himself, but if Yi Shiha didn't say anything, it would be like offending everyone here.

Without saying a word, he prostrated himself on the ground, choked up and said: "Your Majesty... Marquis Annan is right. Regarding this matter, the emperor's heart is good, Marquis Annan is also right, the only thing is... a little incomplete. , but the emperor is young after all, Marquis Annan... Marquis Annan... is also young... They act recklessly, but the slaves feel that they are kind-hearted in everything, regardless of deeds, especially His Royal Highness. It's my great Ming's blessing. Didn't he send the most valued prince to Fengyang, the central capital, when Emperor Taizu Gao was at the beginning?”

  Yi Shiha's words immediately revealed his level.

   It looks like he didn't say anything, but he seems to have said everything.

  The finishing touch is in the last sentence, Taizu Emperor Gao sent his most valued prince to Fengyang, the central capital, for reclamation.

  In fact, there were three princes sent, one was Zhu Di, and the other two were King Qin and King Jin.

But obviously, Yi Shiha directly skipped the two princes, and it became that Emperor Taizu Gao valued Zhu Di the most. The reason why he sent it was because in the mind of Emperor Taizu Gao, Zhu Di is the most preferred heir.

  It was only because of various reasons that Jianwen was allowed to take advantage of the loopholes, but God never tired of it, and finally there was a good result. The favorite prince of Emperor Taizu Gao finally succeeded in the grand line and inherited the foundation of his ancestors.

  Of course Zhu Di knew it was a lie, but Yi Shiha also knew it was self-consolation.

  The trick here is that it was said to the emperor and grandson.

  Zhu Di still wants to save face. He doesn't want his grandson to be a usurper. In other words, the emperor may have another image in his grandson's mind.

  Zhu Di put his hands behind his back: "Get up."

  Yi Shiha got up cautiously, with his hands hanging down, looking frightened. Of course, this was actually a fake, because based on what he knew about His Majesty, His Majesty had calmed down.

Zhu Di said: "The most hateful thing is that Chen Yan, this man's intentions are dishonest. The emperor's grandson... can't come to Qixia forever, it's not good, if something good or bad happens, then it won't work. Even if I know that he has left the East Palace, I will sleep and eat Uneasy."

   he said, sighing heavily.

  This is the difference between a son and a grandson. Zhu Gaoxu, the second child, is still playing with mud in Annan, and Zhu Di is not worried, but when Zhu Zhanji goes out, Zhu Di feels worried.

  Zhu Di pondered for a moment: "Let's do this, what should be learned or what should be learned... I see... There is nothing wrong with this method. This is also the method of the ancestors. When Emperor Taizu was Gao, the future prince also had to go deep into the people."

  That's right, that's how my father trained me as an 'heir'.

"I have always respected the precepts of my ancestors, because Emperor Taizu Gao had far-sighted considerations. In this case... In my opinion... the Pope's grandson can come to Qixia for three days every month. During this period... the model battalion is responsible for pick-up and delivery, and a part of the warrior battalion is ordered. , and secretly arranged on the periphery and in the streets and alleys they crossed, and in the inner thousand households, some elite soldiers and generals were dispatched to hide in it, so that they can be foolproof."

   Zhu Zhanji was overjoyed: "Is the emperor's grandson coming every month?"

Zhu Di smiled, and picked him up: "You are my grandson, you have your own ideas, how can I teach you to be disappointed, the bad is your father, such a big event, I don't go into details, although I have told you His mother is also vague, I don't even know what happened, you have to take your father as a warning."

  Zhu Zhanji said: "My lord, Sun Chen feels uncomfortable when you scold Sun Chen's father like this."

   "You are such a dutiful son." Zhu Di was overjoyed, touched his head, hugged Zhu Zhanji and said, "Then scold your uncle, and your uncle will follow suit."

   Zhu Zhanji thought for a while: "After all, he is still an uncle, so don't blame him for the emperor."

  Zhu Di said: "Okay, okay, everything is up to you. Come and tell me, how do you pick coal?"

  Zhu Zhanji said: "The emperor can't go to that place, the place is very dirty, the emperor is the emperor..."

  Zhu Di said: "You can go, I can't go anyway, I think back then..."

Zhu Di crossed his waist, arched his body, supported by Yi Shiha, and sighed with emotion in his mouth: "Hey, I'm old, I'm old, my muscles and bones are not as good as before, thinking back in the past, I...how strong, Who would have thought that after bending down to pick up coal for an hour, he would feel that his waist and horses are not as big as before."

Yi Shiha had a bitter face: "Your Majesty came all the way on horseback, and bent over for more than an hour, even with a body made of iron, it won't work. Your Majesty, wait a moment, the servant will teach someone to carry the sedan chair, so it will be more comfortable .”

  Zhu Di sighed: "This money... is hard earned, Zhang Anshi... really has a dark heart..."

  Yi Shiha said: "Your Majesty...this is a business house, there are also in the palace..."

  Zhu Di shut up and remained silent.

   Zhang Anshi and Zhu Zhanji hid far behind, Zhang Anshi kept winking at Zhu Zhanji: "It's no wonder I am."

  Zhu Zhanji said: "Can you still blame me?"

   "Forget it, forget it, no one is to blame, it's Yi Shiha... He didn't even stop him, His Majesty is so rich, Yi Shiha's heart is too dark."

  Zhu Zhanji said: "Uncle is right."

   At this moment, a fast horse came at a high speed.

  The person on the horse was Chen Li.

  Chen Li shouted: "Master Hou, Lord Hou..."

   Saying this, he jumped off the horse.

   Soon, a report was delivered to Zhang Anshi.

  Zhang Anshi saw that at this time...Zhu Di had entered the Zhang family's mansion and took a seat.

   Before he had time to drink a cup of tea, Zhang Anshi caught up and said, "Your Majesty, there is an urgent call."

  Zhu Di looked bad when he saw Zhang Anshi.

  He stretched out his hand: "Bring it."

   Look down.

  Zhu Di frowned: "Didn't you say that the rebellious party... has collected a lot of wealth? Why did you send people from Neiqianhusuo to search, but only got 470,000 taels of property?"

   This obviously does not match what Zhu Di had in mind.

  Zhu Di looked up at Zhang Anshi.

  Zhang An Shidao: "The people in Neiqianhusuo are very capable. I dare to guarantee them with my head, and I will never hide anything."

  Chen Li was at the side, he was too frightened to vent his anger, but he was relieved to hear what Zhang Anshi said, and gave Zhang Anshi a grateful look.

  Zhu Di put down the report, and then calmly said: "Then what is the problem? Can you tell me?"

  Zhang An Shidao: "I thought of something."

   "What is it?"

  Zhang An Shidao: "Your Majesty still remembers that on the day when Gun Jue executed those rebellious parties, when he was about to kill Zhang Xingyuan's family, Zhang Xingyuan shouted, he said he knew what treasure..."

  Zhu Di suddenly thought of this, and he nodded subconsciously.

  Zhang An Shidao: "Is there a possibility that he only confided some wealth, the real wealth... is actually in..."

  Zhu Di's face was cold, and his eyes were full of murderous intent: "I don't care about the money from the traitor, but I just don't want to let this traitor lose it...you put it this way...I think it is really possible."

Zhang Anshi said: "Now that Zhang Xingyuan is still in prison. Did your Majesty pay attention to the report of Nanzhen Fusi? Maybe... Zhang Xingyuan confessed again and told the treasure. I think... so many days of torture , he may have confessed."

   "Really?" Hearing this, Zhu Di suddenly had a murderous look in his eyes.

  He said coldly: "I have never missed Jin Yiwei's report, and I read it very carefully, but... there is not a single word like that. If... If Zhang Xingyuan really confessed something, Jin Yiwei..."

  Zhu Di stared at Zhang Anshi: "Is it possible for the Jinyiwei to know about it and not report it?"

  As soon as these words came out... there was a chill in the hall.

  New January, double monthly ticket, for the sake of tiger's unshakable hard work every day, let's support tiger!
