Mixed with salted fish in Hongwudang

Chapter 160 Isn't such a big Wu Palace enough for you to live in?

Huang Zicheng hurried, and finally caught up with the lunch at the Wenhua Hall.

After lunch, he bragged with his colleagues in Wenhuadian and shared some gossip before returning to Dahontang.

"Mr. Huang!"

"His Royal Highness Four Emperors, what's the matter with you calling Mr. Ben, do you want to take the test in advance?"

Zhu Yunxi didn't have that idea, even if he ran out early, he would have to wait for the other little grandchildren, otherwise no one would play with him.

"no!"

"My third brother said that when I have class in the afternoon, let me hand over the homework to you for him!"

"His Royal Highness King Wu?"

"Mr. Ben punished him to write the original text of the university three times. He finished it so quickly?"

"Uh-huh!"

While talking, Zhu Yunxi took out a piece of paper and handed it over.Huang Zicheng took a look, his nose was almost crooked.

I saw six large characters written on the paper—the original text of the university three times!
This guy is not even willing to write the "original text of the university" three times, but he played such a word game, it is really deceiving!

"It is tolerable, which is unbearable?"

"Mr. Ben is going to meet His Majesty now, and let His Majesty punish him severely!"

Huang Zicheng rushed to Qianqing Palace, Lao Zhu heard the eunuch's report and immediately let him into the palace for questioning.

"Huang Zicheng, but what happened at the Daben Hall?"

Huang Zicheng bowed and handed over Zhu Yunxi's "homework", complaining with grief and indignation.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, His Highness the King of Wu didn't bother to memorize the book this morning, instead he leaned over the table to draw a picture, and the official punished him to write the original text of the university three times, and he was just so perfunctory..."

Lao Zhu took a look and burst out laughing on the spot.This turtle grandson is too much, even if he writes it once to make sense, he actually uses such a tricky method to fool him.

Seeing His Majesty laughing, Huang Zicheng was even angrier.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Wu is so perfunctory, but it is a taboo to be a scholar. I hope you will punish him severely!"

The smile on Old Zhu's face disappeared instantly when he heard this.

Punishment must be punished, that turtle grandson's skin has been very itchy recently, it's time to deal with him several times.

It's just Huang Zicheng...

"Huang Zicheng, is your bookstore doing well recently?"

"Sold a lot of Annotations of the Four Books, right?"

When Huang Zicheng heard this, his face turned pale with fright, and he knelt down and kowtowed with a plop.

"Your Majesty... my minister... my minister was convicted, and I closed the bookstore when I went back. I hope your majesty will give me a chance, woo woo woo..."

Seeing this, Lao Zhu sneered with a half-hearted smile.

He had already had a problem with Huang Zicheng, and Huang Zicheng had violated his taboo by treating the prince and grandson differently in Dabentang.In addition, he recently had a heated fight with Prince Qin's Mansion, and sold a lot of Annotations of the Four Books through the Prince Qin's Mansion, earning hundreds of taels of silver, which has already violated his Ni Lin.

Since ancient times, no emperor has tolerated vassal princes and border generals making friends with court officials.

The reason why Lao Zhu didn't let Jin Yiwei come to his door was firstly because of his face as a teacher in the Dabentang, and secondly because his official position was too low to be called a minister of the court, so he has been holding back until now.

However, he ran to sue Dasun recklessly, so he had to be beaten.

"I will write a note to resign when I get back!"

When Lao Zhu heard this, he thought to himself that this person was quite interesting, so he sternly tried to persuade him to stay.

"There's no need to be so anxious, let's talk about it after one month of teaching!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compassion..."

"Since you are unwilling to teach our princes and grandsons, then recommend a few great Confucians with both ability and political integrity!"

Huang Zicheng was dumbfounded when he heard His Majesty's slanderous words. It was obvious that His Majesty didn't want me to teach him, so why did he not want to teach him?
But slander belongs to slander, this is still to be answered, and it must be answered respectfully!
"Your Majesty, Yang Xinlu in Fengqiao, Shaoxing is fine. This man is the son of Yang Weizhen, a famous scholar. Needless to say, his knowledge and character, his influence among literati in the south of the Yangtze River can be regarded as a leader in the literary world."

"If His Majesty recruits this person, he will be able to teach the princes and grandchildren well."

After hearing this, Lao Zhu made a secret note that he also had a little impression of this person, but he didn't feel very attractive.

These scholars in Daming are very stubborn, and they always feel ashamed of being an official for us!

"Any more?"

"There's another... There's another person from Suzhou, named Gao Ming, his knowledge and character are good, but he's been implicated by his elder brother Gao Qi, and has been depressed all the time..."

After Huang Zicheng said this, he nervously peeked at His Majesty's expression.

In fact, he shouldn't have mentioned this name.

Although His Majesty has relied heavily on civil servants in recent years, and is no longer as random as in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, but the emperor is the emperor, and his power is unpredictable, and no one can guess.

Therefore, this move can be described as very risky.

The reason why he knew it was impossible to mention it was because he wanted to save face for the scholars all over the world, so that His Majesty could apologize to the scholars all over the world!
Although His Majesty the Emperor is self-willed and arbitrary, he will never make an edict against himself.But as long as he reuses Gao Qi's younger brother, Gao Ming, and entrusts him with the task of teaching the emperor's heir, it will be a cover-up to reverse Gao Qi's case and admit his mistake to the four heroes of Wuzhong who died innocently and tragically in the past!

When Lao Zhu heard the name "Gao Qi", the color on his face also changed several times.

In fact, he already knew that this person killed the wrong person, even if Gao Qi was wrong, he would not be guilty of death.

He had just become the emperor at that time, and he was afraid that the people under him would not accept him and fool him in doing things.

Therefore, he killed many people and did many wrong things for the sake of his prestige.

But he never regretted it, even if God gave him another chance, he could only kill as little as possible, that's all.

It's just that Gao Qi's case had a great impact on the imperial court. The reason why scholars in the Ming Dynasty did not cooperate with the imperial court and would rather cut off their own arms than become an official, actually has a lot to do with this matter.

In the past, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't take it seriously, thinking that the more he offended the scholars in the world, the more loyal they would be to the prince in the future.

However, now that the prince has gone ahead of him, his attitude towards scholars is bound to be adjusted.

At the very least, we have to coax them to work for our grandson!

Otherwise, when the grandson ascends the throne in the future, he will all rely on these generals to manage Daming well?
"Gao Ming..."

Huang Zicheng was so nervous that his heart jumped into his throat when he heard His Majesty say these three words.

His Majesty's next words will affect the cultural fortune of the entire Ming Dynasty!

"You will repair a book for us, and prepare a generous gift. Let's try to see if we can please move."

"If he's sensible, let's give him a chance to work for Daming!"

Huang Zicheng was about to cry when he heard this, His Majesty the Emperor feels so good about himself, you may not even be able to meet him in person, yet you are still so arrogant...

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid I don't have enough face..."

Old Zhu glared at Huang Zicheng coldly upon hearing this.

"Humph!"

"You can't even invite people who can't move to talk about it, why are you playing us sincerely?"

"I don't dare... I can only try my best. If it doesn't work, I hope His Majesty will not blame you..."

"Go!"

After receiving this order, Huang Zicheng hurriedly rolled out of the Qianqing Palace with his tail between his legs, and returned to the Daben Hall. Only then did Huang Zicheng show a relieved expression.

Although His Majesty did not reverse Gao Qi's case, he did not dislike Gao Qi's brother, which proves that His Majesty already has regrets in his heart!
Thinking of this, Huang Zicheng faintly became excited.

As long as there is more fire, His Majesty the Emperor will definitely overturn Gao Qi's case and give an explanation to scholars all over the world!
After sending Huang Zicheng away, Lao Zhu angrily took off the whip from the wall and rushed into the dormitory. When he saw that the bed was empty, he immediately shouted at the eunuch who was serving him.

"What about people!"

"Didn't Ni Sun take a nap here after lunch? Why is he gone now!"

"Return...Report to His Majesty, the third grandson just lay down for a while and then slipped through the side door..."

"Slip away?"

Lao Zhu returned to the front hall and shouted towards the outside of the hall.

"Two tigers!"

"Get out of here!"

Qin Deshun said with a depressed face.

"Your Majesty, don't waste your time, Erhu followed His Highness the Third Emperor to the Wu Palace outside the city..."

"This……"

Old Zhu was stunned for a long time when he heard this, and then he showed a wry smile.

"This Nisun really has nothing to do for a moment, we have rewarded him with the Wu Palace, and he is afraid that the Palace will run away!"

……

Outside the Taiping Gate, the Wu Palace.

Zhu Yunxi led the two tigers up to the turret of the palace, pointing to a piece of private houses to the north of the palace and asked.

"Uncle Hu, can the houses over there be demolished?"

Erhu's heart tightened immediately when he heard this, what does the young master want to do, why do you still want to demolish the houses?

"cannot!"

"I won't demolish it in vain, I'll give you money and compensate you according to the market price!"

When Erhu heard the young master said to give the money, his expression immediately softened.

The young master is good at this, no matter what he does, he is reasonable.

"If you give money, it can be demolished."

"The private houses in this area were all newly built in recent years. Basically, there are no deeds or title deeds. You can buy them with just a few taels of silver."

"It's just why you demolished them. Such a big Wu Palace is not enough for you to live in?"

Zhu Yunxi took out the map drawn in Dahontang.

"Uncle Tiger, this is the new palace I'm going to build, take a look at it."

Erhu took it over and looked at it, and he called it a good guy in his heart.If this palace is built, it will be much more magnificent than the current imperial city!

"His Royal Highness, you are going too far. If the emperor knows, he will be angry!"

Zhu Yunxi had thought about this issue a long time ago, and directly carried the banner of filial piety.

"I was thinking that the imperial palace was too stuffy and the emperor's grandfather was getting older. I planned to build a place for him to spend the summer by the Xuanwu Lake."

When Erhu heard that Zhu Yunxi had such filial piety, his eyes turned red with excitement.

"His Royal Highness, if there is any place you need to be humbled, just ask, Jin Yiwei will fully cooperate!"

Zhu Yunxi pointed to a piece of private houses in the north, and then pointed to a large open space in the south and east.

"It's nothing, I just want to buy the land here, here, and there!"

When the two tigers heard that the young master wanted to "buy", they immediately patted their chests and packed the tickets.

"Good job!"

"I will go to Yingtian Mansion in a short while, and I can help His Highness get it done in less than a day!"
