Chapter 241 The Crown Prince Leaves the Pavilion (Part [-])
Once the cumbersome etiquette was over, Rao Wushi had already prepared. He ate a few burnt rings in the carriage on the way to the palace early in the morning, and felt so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back, standing beside Zhu Yijun , The eyes are almost green.

He quietly looked at the hourglass not far away, and found that it was three o'clock, and he knew that he might not run away if he was hungry today-this point is not sure to make up for the meal, he can only make it until lunch.

Thinking about it, my stomach growled "cuckoo".

At this time, the emperor left early because of the "procedure", and the others were far away because of the "separation between monarch and minister", and no one heard it, only Zhu Yijun heard it all at once.

Gao Yushi was a little embarrassed, but saw that Zhu Yijun turned his body slightly, his head was straight and still, but the voice came over, and he was a little gloating: "Ha, didn't you eat enough in the morning? Fortunately, I have a companion to remind me to eat before coming here A basket of steamed dumplings, and a bowl of millet porridge."

Gao Yushi glanced at Feng Bao, who was standing not far away, and thought to himself: Class hasn't started yet, so let's compete in advance?

However, he said in a low voice: "Your Highness is very lucky." He also kept his head still, and even opened and closed his lips as small as possible to avoid being discovered.

Fortunately, others don't dare to look at the prince directly, so everything is as usual.

Zhu Yijun said again: "Don't worry about it, just bear with it, today I will only talk a little about the Three Character Classic, and I will be able to memorize it a long time ago. When I finish memorizing it early, I will be able to give food to the gentlemen, and you will have a share too."

"Oh."

Gao Wushi didn't understand for a while, what does "you have a share" mean?I'm here to read with you. Could it be that you don't even have food when it's time for dinner?

Unexpectedly, Zhu Yijun said again: "You 'oh' what 'oh', if the emperor didn't specifically ask yesterday, you would be hungry this noon - there is no such rule in the palace!"

Gao Wushi was taken aback, and only then did he realize that the rules in the palace of the Ming Dynasty were very strict, and that he, the prince's companion, was specially set up, and all the corresponding systems meant that he didn't have his own share, and he didn't even have this lunch Luo Luo, if Long Qing hadn't asked for some reason, this meal would have been terribly hungry.

Immediately said quickly: "His Royal Highness, please tell Your Majesty that Your Majesty cares so much, and I am terrified. If there is a chance to meet the Holy Spirit next time, I will thank you personally."

Only then was Zhu Yijun satisfied, and said, "It's easy to say, easy to say."

Seeing that Zhu Yijun was still a normal child, Gao Wushi deliberately asked, "But Your Highness, will I have to go home for lunch tomorrow?"

"No, Father has already explained that you, Gao Shidu, will give food to the gentlemen from now on - just withdraw the wine, everything else is the same."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Highness." Gao Wu said sincerely, "It's good to give food together. By giving food together, I have a chance to communicate with these gentlemen in private."

Sure enough, the class this morning was relatively simple, and it was enough to memorize a few pages of the Three-Character Classic. In fact, Zhu Yijun had already memorized the Three-Character Classic, so it didn't take long to finish it.Today's lecturer, Chen Jingbang, praised His Highness the Crown Prince for being smart and smart, and then dismissed the class.

However, Gao Wushi and Chen Jingbang did not have any private communication - today is the prince's first class, all kinds of ceremonies are too complete, when the two of them are eating, there are more than a dozen eunuchs serving around them, so what's the point of communicating?The two teachers and students can only stage a gentleman's play: "Eating without talking".

After lunch, Zhu Yijun had a special class in the afternoon. Accompanied by Feng Bao and Gao Wushi, he read an imperial essay and the cabinet's proposal.

This course was set up by Gao Gong under Gao Pragmatic's suggestion, which has never existed before.The reason Gao Wushi gave was to let His Royal Highness know some government affairs earlier, because there is only one article, and it will not affect the schoolwork. Over time, His Royal Highness can "verify what he has learned and see", which is of great benefit.

Gao Gong thought it was good, so he accepted his suggestion.

But in fact, the reason Gao Wushi said is obviously only official words on the surface. What he really wants is to give Zhu Yijun the opportunity to participate in understanding some government affairs through this means-although Zhu Yijun can only "study" in theory, I can't participate in it, but the prince is the prince after all. While Zhu Yijun is watching, Gao Wushi also has the opportunity to "discuss" with him because he also wants to be by his side.

It is conceivable that this kind of discussion, highly pragmatic, can be used to exert influence on Zhu Yijun. First, it can quietly instill some not-so-obvious reform thinking, and second, it can attract the prince to express his views on certain matters at critical moments—this view Under the guidance of high pragmatism, it is very likely that there will be a clear bias towards the direction desired by high pragmatism.

The personal opinion of the underage prince is of course meaningless in theory, but in practice...it's hard to say, maybe sometimes it will have a miraculous effect?
Today, the essay that the crown prince wants to read is a proposal for impeachment and the cabinet's proposed reply.

This impeachment was carried out by Wang Zhen in the Nanjing official department. The targets of the impeachment were Wei Guogong Xu Pengju, Chengyi Bo Liu Shiyan, Nanjing Guozijian Jijiu Jiang Bao, and Nanjing Ministry of Criminal Justice Sun Zhi.

According to the memorial, Xu Pengju asked his concubine Zheng to be his wife, abandoned his elders and established his young, and sent him to Nanjing Guozijian.Liu Shiyan wanted his youngest son to be rich, and he planned to get married. He secretly asked the prison to refute the investigation, and bribed Jiang Bao with gold, silver and jewelry, and wrote a document to refute the investigation, which provoked a dispute between the two sons and caused a family disaster.And Sun Zhi was bribed by Xu Peng for lifting heavy weights, and asked to be his wife for Zheng.

The Nanjing bureaucrat asked Wang Zhen in the matter to dismiss the four of them.

The reply of the official department is: Zheng's imperial order has been pursued by the imperial order.It was difficult for Sun Zhi and Jiang Bao to accept bribes, so they were ordered to return to their hometown for investigation, and they were referred to the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate for investigation and investigation, and they will be dealt with separately.

The reply from the Ministry of Officials itself was Gao Gong's meaning, so the cabinet just went through a smooth process and expressed its agreement with the Ministry of Officials' disposal.The approval made by the Sili Supervisor on behalf of the emperor is even simpler, with only three words: "Zhunge Discussion".That is to approve the proposal of the cabinet.

After Zhu Yijun looked at it, he frowned and said, "In the final analysis, this incident was caused by Xu Pengju, and Liu Shiyan even took bribes and messed up the government. Why did Jiang Bao and Sun Zhi only get punished in the end?"

Feng Bao whispered at the side: "Young master, Xu Pengju and Liu Shiyan are both hereditary titles after the founding heroes. They stayed in Nanjing and lived together with the country. They punished them excessively for this, and they somewhat lost the court's face."

Gao Wushi did not speak.

Zhu Yijun was very upset, and said: "I know that they are the heroes, but the heroes should stick to the law. How can they act recklessly? Wouldn't it be shameful for the court if they are not punished?" He turned his head and looked at Gao Pragmatically, he asked: "Gao Shidu, tell me, should these two people be punished?"
