My uncle's name is Zhu Di

Chapter 127 Zhu Gaochi who lost weight successfully
Zhu Di also revealed his rogue nature. He first recognized the hero and rewarded him with the flying fish suit.Anyone who opposes is tantamount to opposing the emperor.

You have to weigh the consequences!

The three court officials of the Sanfa Division are all one of the Great Nine Ministers, how can they not understand this matter... But once this case is made public, it will be too dangerous for the officials.

Because this case provides a very scary way of thinking.

As long as there is something wrong with you, it will be considered as corrupting Gangchang, being unkind, and then being disloyal and filial, deceiving the king... You will directly destroy the nine clans, no need to discuss.

How does this play?

"Your Majesty, I have read the manuscript and thought..." Zheng Ci stammered.

"Why?" Zhu Di asked.

"I think that this case is nothing more than an official's prostitution and misconduct. And she is a woman from a good family. The crime is aggravated... I just need to be dismissed from office. In any case, I shouldn't beheaded. I hope Your Majesty will show mercy!"

After finishing speaking, Zheng Ci fell to his knees and prostrated himself on the ground.

Guo Zi and Wu Zhong glanced at each other, and they both fell to their knees, "Your Majesty, please be merciful!"

Zhu Di looked at them and chuckled, "You say that, Huangzhi County made a mistake, and I also rewarded you wrongly, right?"

Zheng Ci hurriedly said: "Your Majesty Qi Zuo, I don't have this intention. Huangzhi County has made great contributions in investigating cases, and is diligent and loyal. It is a matter of course that he should be rewarded. I am willing to recommend Huangzhi County to be promoted to the imperial censor of Qiandu."

Huang Xiaoru is a high-ranking magistrate of the sixth rank, while the imperial censor of Qiandu is the fourth rank. This step, not to mention the smooth progress, is also straight to the sky.

"Huangzhi County, have you heard that Zheng Shangshu has given you credit and wants to promote your official position."

Huang Xiaoru looked serious, "Returning to Your Majesty, I asked the case according to the order. If the results drawn up can be approved by the government and the public, I will naturally have merit. I really can't figure out this matter, but I can make it to the sky. I don't dare to accept rewards for nothing, and please Your Majesty look into it."

Zhu Di laughed, and he turned his head to Xu Jingchang again.

"Dingguo Gong, what do you think of Huangzhi County?"

Xu Jingchang smiled and said, "Mature and prudent, he is a reliable talent."

Zhu Di laughed and said, "You said he was reliable, but Zheng Shangshu and the others thought it was a random sentence, so what do you say?"

Xu Jingchang smiled, "Zheng Shangshu, you are in charge of a country's punishment, and you must agree with the fairness of rewards and punishments. If there is any crime, there will be any punishment. You can't get a light sentence for a serious crime, and you can't get a heavy sentence for a light crime, right?"

Zheng Ci took a deep breath and said sadly, "Since Ding Guogong understands this truth, he should advise His Majesty not to settle the case like this, otherwise, the world will be in chaos."

Xu Jingchang smiled, "Zheng Shangshu, listen to what I have to say. The people involved in this case are all court officials. They have read a lot of Confucianism and Mencius. They talk eloquently in front of people, poetry, etiquette, and morality. Son of Heaven, be clear and straight. I think, since you advertise this, you can only use this to ask you."

"You can't talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality, and men steal women and prostitutes behind your back, right?" Xu Jingchang said with a smile: "Such a person has two faces, how can he gain a foothold in the court? How can he assist His Majesty and govern the people? As an official, he should cultivate himself and his family Governing the country and the world must be done better than ordinary people, right?"

Zheng Ci has known for a long time that Xu Jingchang is difficult to deal with. This kid is eloquent and full of strange and weird things, which can often make you speechless.

But this time the incident was too outrageous, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "Ding Guogong, you are talking about self-cultivation of officials, you can't use this to convict, these are two different things?"

Xu Jingchang smiled, "Really? Zheng Shangshu, do you mean that benevolence, righteousness and morality can be put aside first, and the government can not talk about these things?"

Zheng Ci's face turned dark. Confucianism is based on benevolence, righteousness and constancy. How can it not talk about morality?
"Dingguo Gong, you are clearly messing around, there is no reason for it!"

Xu Jingchang chuckled, "Zheng Shangshu, what you said is wrong... Scholars, farmers, businessmen, and scholars are at the top. I want to ask you, is it because scholars are at the top that you can act recklessly?"

"Of course not."

"That's right. Since they can't do whatever they want, don't they have to respect morality more than ordinary people? As for officials, they are the best among scholars, and they have to go further, right?" Xu Jingchang sneered: " As an official, who is supposed to be the master for the people, but takes the lead in courting prostitutes and bullying the people, does this count as knowing the law and breaking the law?"

Zheng Ci was speechless for a while, dumbfounded.

Xu Jingchang continued to pursue the victory, and said with a smile: "In this case, what's wrong with severely punishing the criminal?"

Of course not!

That's a high-ranking scholar-bureaucrat!

Even if he is guilty, he should be mitigated, how can he be aggravated?
Otherwise, where is Sven?

What is the dignity of a scholar-bureaucrat?

This is Zheng Ci's heartfelt voice, but he can't say it out.

After all, with Xu Jingchang here, there will be no other end except to humiliate himself... Zheng Ci lowered his head, Guo Zi and Wu Zhong looked at each other, and they didn't dare to say anything at all.

Everyone who saw it was silent, and it was time for the emperor to come to a conclusion.

Zhu Di said slowly: "I can understand... Dingguo is fair. As a scholar, he should be more self-disciplined. As an official of the court, he should be better than ordinary people. I think so. My right arm and right arm, assisting me in governing the world, should be a little different."

Hearing this, Zheng Ci and others were overjoyed, is there still a chance?

I just heard Zhu Di continue: "However, this time the matter is special. They knew the law and aroused the anger of the people. Even if I want to spare them, it is unreasonable. I will follow the judgment of Huangzhi County and kill them all! There will be no such cases in the future. It will be discussed by the three law divisions."

The latter sentence was obviously just words of comfort.

Anyway, this time the person is doomed, and no one can save him!

Although the three of Zheng Ci wanted to stop him, they did not dare to disobey Zhu Di, so they could only lower their heads again and choose to surrender.

When will this kind of unlucky day be the boss?

Your Majesty, you are already a mature emperor, you can't mess around with Xu Jingchang anymore.

The three of Zheng Ci had no choice but to go to Jian Yi and ask the Lord Tianguan for advice.

It's just that they haven't discussed anything yet... A plaque written by the Emperor's imperial pen was sent to the Shangyuan County Government.

"The number one magistrate in the world".

The six big characters are shining brightly.

His Majesty sealed it himself, what a dignity!

Huang Xiaoru lay on the ground, kowtowed, and thanked God for his grace.

This step is really on the right track.

Huang Xiaoru really has mixed tastes.

The only pity is that none of his colleagues came to congratulate him, and he became disgusted in the officialdom?
Could it be that the first step in becoming the emperor's favored minister is to offend other officials?
Just when Huang Xiaoru was thinking wildly, suddenly the sound of gongs, drums and firecrackers went off.

Looking around, there are huge crowds of people in the distance, and a group of common people are coming here.

They beat gongs and drums and were beaming.

The person walking in the front is holding a Wanmin umbrella.

Excited, he sent it to the Shangyuan county government.

"Master Huang, the grassroots thank you for taking the initiative and sending you the Wanmin Umbrella."

"My lord punishes corrupt officials, it's very satisfying. It's comparable to Bao Longtu!"

"That's right, my lord is Bao Qingtian!"

……

Faced with this situation, Huang Xiaoru's face couldn't help but flush.

How can I have virtue!
Even compared with Bao Qingtian, the common people really love her.

"Thank you folks, I will do my best to be the master of the people."

Huang Xiaoru thanked the people repeatedly, and then accepted the Wanmin Umbrella.With excitement, he returned to the yamen, only to find that someone was already waiting here above the second hall, and he was not alone.

Dingguo Duke Xu Jingchang was in the middle, and the three princes, Prince Zhu Gaochi, Han Wang Zhu Gaoxu, and Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui, stood out.

Huang Xiaoru was dumbfounded, hesitated a little, and wanted to salute, Zhu Gaochi stopped him with a smile.

"Huangzhi County, don't be too polite."

During this period of time, Zhu Gaochi has not done anything serious, mainly running to lose weight according to Xu Jingchang's instructions.

Needless to say, he really lost a lot of weight.

Moreover, Fatty Zhu is the son of Empress Xu, and his facial features are very similar to his mother's... In the past, Zhu Gaochi's appearance was covered by fat, making him appear bloated and clumsy.

But after losing weight, Zhu Gaochi turned out to be a little handsome.

Unlike Xu Jingchang's slender and handsome guy, Zhu Gaochi has a big frame and a burly figure. Even if he loses weight successfully, he is still muscular and powerful.

At first glance, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows are quite similar to Zhu Di.

As expected of the prince, he is really majestic.

From now on, you can't call someone Zhu Dafat, you should be Zhu Dazhuang.

The person lost weight, and Zhu Gaochi's self-confidence also came.

"Huangzhi County, you have handled this case very well, and it is very satisfying. Those corrupt officials, moths in the court, just can't be polite. I have another plan to let you take greater responsibility."

Zhu Gaochi glanced at Xu Jingchang, Xu Jingchang smiled and nodded, motioning for Zhu Gaochi to continue.

"Huangzhi County, it's like this. I plan to recommend it to my father, and you will be responsible for the construction of Yingtian Outer City."

Huang Xiaoru was startled immediately, and couldn't help but said: "Your Highness, how can such a big matter be taken care of by a mere county magistrate?"

At this time Xu Jingchang smiled faintly, "You will not be the county magistrate soon."

Zhu Gaochi nodded and said: "That's right, I have already recommended you to be the imperial censor of Zuoqian capital... After all, this is a position recognized by Zheng Shangshu, how can I not bear it?"

These words are interesting, Huang Xiaoru rejected Zheng Ci's Qiandu Censor, so he must show sincerity here!

Huang Xiaoru hurriedly knelt down on the ground, "My humble servant thanked His Royal Highness for your kindness."

Zhu Gaochi laughed loudly and told him to get up.

"Magistrate Huang, what else do you have to say? Duke Ding and I are here... Of course, there are also King Han and King Zhao. We will find a way."

Zhu Laoer and Zhu Laosan, who were named, were not very happy.

Once upon a time, they were all busy and didn't pay attention to what the boss was doing.

Until a few days ago, when the big guys boarded the Fengtian Gate together, Zhu Di passed by the eldest son, and suddenly found that Zhu Gaochi, who had lost weight, was the same as when he was young.

Zhu Di was very relieved. Zhu Gaoxu had lost one of his greatest advantages, and he was far away from being the crown prince...

Huang Xiaoru murmured again and again, "I would like to ask His Highness the Crown Prince and Duke Ding for help. I plan to thoroughly investigate the servants hidden by the wealthy families in the capital... After all, there is no one in the outer city."
