My uncle's name is Zhu Di

Chapter 130 Who Is Zhu Di's Son?
Xu Jingchang was chatting with Pu Qia, and Zhu Gaochi was also chatting in Yao Guangxiao's meditation room.

"Young master, you old man, don't blame your cousin. He is a man with a good heart. He is also for the Ming Dynasty. Your old man has a Buddha's heart and can tolerate him."

Zhu Gaochi tried his best to say good things, for fear that Yao Guangxiao would blame him.

The old monk shook his head vigorously, "Your Highness, you are wrong. Xu Jingchang is taking advantage of others' dangers and plotting. You must be careful in the future. He is a complete villain who makes troubles! This old monk also made a mistake for a while, so Push him out, now that I think about it, it’s too late to regret it!”

Zhu Gaochi was dumbfounded, and he tried hard to think, "Master, why can't I understand what you are talking about? Cousin isn't that bad, is he?"

Yao Guangxiao said with a chuckle, "Your Highness, Senior Brother is the head of the Jianwen Chaosenglu Department, do you know that?"

"know."

"Then do you know that someone secretly reported to His Majesty that senior brother hid Jianwen." Yao Guangxiao said flatly.

Zhu Gaochi turned pale with shock, "What? Could it be that my cousin informed me?"

Yao Guangxiao quickly shook his head, "He's not so nasty, it's Jin Yiwei, probably Ji Gang, who originally planned to ask His Majesty for credit for this. Xu Jingchang took over Jin Yiwei and suppressed this matter."

Zhu Gaochi frowned. There are two layers to this matter. First, is Emperor Jianwen in the temple?Does Puqia know?
Second, Xu Jingchang suppressed the matter. Was he deceiving the emperor, or was he helping Yao Guangxiao?
Yao Guangxiao chuckled, "Originally, I thought this kid had a conscience, but I didn't expect that he was just teasing me, waiting for me here!"

Zhu Gaochi thought about it seriously, his brain was not weak, and he gradually came up with ideas, "Young master, no matter what, my cousin will not hide such a big matter, he is already kind enough to delay until today."

Yao Guangxiao had no choice but to smile bitterly, "Indeed, it's just that he took the opportunity to force his senior brother to pay someone and money, which is really not kind. And he even threw his mouth on the old monk's face, using me to kill chickens and monkeys, doesn't he know how to respect the old man?" Do you love children?"

Hearing Yao Guangxiao's complaints, Zhu Gaochi wanted to laugh instead. In the whole world, Xu Jingchang was the only one who could make Yao Shaoshi like this.

Zhu Gaochi thought for a while, then leaned forward and asked, "Master, is Jianwen alive or dead? Do you know?"

Yao Guangxiao shook his head.

Zhu Gaochi owed his ass, and asked again: "Does Master Puqia know?"

Yao Guangxiao still shook his head.

Zhu Gaochi was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "Is it the young master who doesn't know, or the master Puqia who doesn't know?"

Yao Guangxiao let out a long sigh, "Your Highness, it's hard to tell what's going on in the world...Whether Jianwen is alive or dead, what matters is what His Majesty thinks! If His Majesty thinks he's still alive, he'll keep investigating. If He denies it, His Majesty doesn't believe it. He admits it." , and can’t get the truth out... And even if the truth is found, so what? There will be countless Jianwen emperors in the world... Brother Puqia was tricked, but he couldn’t explain clearly. Maybe this is Jianwen's final revenge on His Majesty, just to pierce this thorn."

Zhu Gaochi listened carefully, and with his comprehension ability, he could barely understand... The complexity of this matter is first of all on Zhu Di's side. If Zhu Di can't get rid of his thoughts, as long as the emperor still wants to investigate, the people involved will never be able to help themselves. Proof of innocence.

Failure to hand over Emperor Jianwen is naturally a crime of harboring.

In the world, there will always be Emperor Jianwen in an unknown place.

But if Emperor Jianwen was really alive and handed over a frisky Jianwen to Zhu Di, would the matter be over?
Obviously not!
What can you Zhu Di do?
Killed secretly, and outsiders don't know, then there must be people who continue to pretend to be Jianwen.

If Zhu Di didn't care about the crime of killing the former emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and directly announced it to the world, then some people would claim that Zhu Di killed a fake, and I only have the real Emperor Jianwen here.

Even after a few years, some people will say that I am a legacy of Jianwen and continue to make trouble.

Anyway, there is no national anti-fraud APP, this kind of thing can only be believed by those who believe, and those who do not believe will never believe.

The old monk Puqia fell into this predicament... He often entered the palace because he presided over the ritual affairs in the palace for Jianwen. Some people said that he helped Emperor Jianwen escape, and even turned into a monk in makeup, lifelike, just like the real thing .

What can he do?
He denied it flatly, as long as Zhu Di didn't believe it, there was nothing he could do.

Admittedly, where do you ask him to find a Jianwen Emperor?

Historically, Monk Puqia was arrested and has been imprisoned by the Jinyiwei. Only when Yao Guangxiao pleaded with Zhu Di before his death could Puqia be released.

This can be regarded as Yao Guangxiao's heart disease.

Because of Xu Jingchang, Zhu Di didn't massacre Jianwen's remnant party, and didn't bother to find Jianwen, so Puqia was safe and sound.

However, some people have already released rumors, planning to make a fuss about this matter.

Yao Guangxiao knew it well, but he was helpless. As smart as him, he couldn't think of any way.

It's just that the old monk never expected that when releasing the servants this time, Xu Jingchang actually ran to the temple... demanding that all the people who hid in the temple during the Jingnan period be released.

And for all monks, assessment.

Those who are not qualified will leave, leaving only a few people.

What else is there to talk about that Zhu Di is the real Buddha in this world, and he requires Buddhist disciples to pay taxes and support the emperor... Yao Guangxiao was dumbfounded when he heard these words.

You kid is really good at making excuses!
To think of such a brilliant idea to solve this matter, the old man is really convinced.

It's just that you kid is taking advantage of this to plot against the temples in the world, asking the old monk to reduce the number of monks and take the blame for you, which is really too much.

Yao Guangxiao didn't know whether to thank Xu Jingchang or scold him.

Zhu Gaochi understood everything this time.

Now he suddenly wants to kneel down to Xu Jingchang... Cousin, how did you grow your brain?I really want to open it and have a look.

With regard to Jianwen, it is still necessary to downplay it, and not make it known to everyone, that is to make trouble for oneself.

But the question is what do you have to do to keep silent?

Could it be that Zhu Di directly ordered to search all temples in the world?

Without a suitable excuse, it will definitely not work!

If one is not done well, rumors will spread and self-defeating.

Never underestimate the folks' ability to make something out of nothing.

This is almost an unsolvable question...

But Xu Jingchang gave an impeccable full score answer.

After releasing the servants, the Buddhist sect gathered many poor people and asked all the Buddhist temples to hand them over. If Emperor Jianwen was really in the temple, he would not be able to hide them all at once.

Even if he still can't escape, there are still exams to come!
Since it is an exam, it is necessary to inspect three generations like the imperial examination to ensure the innocence of origin.

After these two processes are completed, even if Emperor Jianwen is really hiding in a certain temple, there is more than [-]% chance of being exposed.

If this is the case, Emperor Jianwen will not be found out... The side effect is to completely weaken the influence of Buddhism and increase fiscal and tax revenue.Even if Emperor Jianwen was still hiding in the temple, he was helpless and could not cause any disturbance.

The whole thing, the most wonderful point, no matter who looks at this matter, the government and the opposition, will not link the rectification of Buddhism with Emperor Jianwen.

It can only be said that the imperial court enforces the law impartially, and even Master Yao, who has such a high status, obediently releases the servants, who else dares to resist the imperial court's decree?

Lifting the weight as if it were light, and doing it grandly, solved the problem that troubled Zhu Di.

What would you think if you were Zhu Di?
This is no nephew, he is closer than his own son!
The only loss was on Yao Guangxiao.

The old monk had to attack the Buddhist sect himself. After a few years, he must be the culprit of the disaster and was cursed by the monks of later generations...

"Young master, don't worry about it when you are old, my cousin is doing it for Daming's good... If you are still angry, then come at me and I will be punished for my cousin, how about it?"

Yao Guangxiao snorted, "Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and enter the palace, and explain this matter clearly to His Majesty, as I owe that boy a favor."

……

"Is his favor valuable? Do I still need his help?" Xu Jingchang said bluntly.

Zhu Gaochi couldn't help but smiled wryly, "My dear brother, looking at the world, I'm afraid you are the only one who doesn't care about Master Shao's favor. I bet, even my father doesn't have the confidence."

Xu Jingchang blinked his eyes, and said lightly: "Maybe this is just being strong without desires!"

Zhu Gaochi resisted the urge to beat him, but obediently followed Xu Jingchang to the palace and met Zhu Di.

Zhu Laosi sullenly said in a deep voice: "I heard that you went to the young master? Are you too bold? Even if it is me, you dare not offend the young master?"

Xu Jingchang smiled and said, "I didn't offend the young master... If that counts as an offense, I guess young master Yao would welcome me to offend me a few more times."

Zhu Di hummed: "Arrogance!"

Xu Jingchang didn't speak, but just handed Pu Qia's brochure to Zhu Di.

"Please take a look, Your Majesty."

Zhu Di took it in his hand, he was careless at the beginning, but after reading a few pages, he became serious.Finally, Zhu Di said in a deep voice, "Puqia hadn't seen Jianwen a month before I broke the city, and he didn't help Jianwen escape?"

Xu Jingchang said: "It's hard to say about this minister, and even if Pu Qia didn't take action, it's not certain that other monks did it."

Zhu Di hummed: "Then there is still no conclusion to this matter?"

Without waiting for Xu Jingchang to speak, Zhu Gaochi couldn't wait to say: "That's why my cousin asked the temple to release all the refugees taken in during the Jingnan period."

Zhu Di was startled, "You mean, let the person who harbored Jianwen release him?"

Zhu Gaochi said with a smile: "Father, those who are released must be registered in the register. Those who stay in the temple must be assessed. Only those who pass can get the monk's degree. There will be nothing to hide."

"It's all my cousin's idea." Zhu Gaochi added.

Zhu Di took a deep breath, thought over and over again, and then slowly said: "Even if you don't find it, it's just a virtuous policy of releasing slaves and maidservants and reuniting the people...Xu Jingchang, your hand is a stroke of genius!"

With a slight smile on Xu Jingchang's face, he said modestly: "I have always worked tirelessly and spared no effort in doing things for His Majesty."

Zhu Di smiled and said: "It is not enough to spare no effort and work hard. You must have a brain! That Ji Gang is a waste, he will only let me make an order, seize Puqia, and force him to ask Jianwen's whereabouts... If I listen to him, what will happen?" Didn't he admit that Emperor Jianwen is still alive? It's really disgusting."

Having said that, Zhu Di stood up, stretched out his arm, and patted Xu Jingchang's shoulder vigorously, "Okay, okay! Sure enough, I read correctly..."

Zhu Di turned his head, and said to Zhu Gaochi: "Go quickly, invite your queen mother, and let's have a family dinner."

Zhu Gaochi hurried down, but when he turned around, he heard Zhu Di sigh: "I have three sons, it would be great if you were the fourth!"

Zhu Gaochi almost got down on the ground, it's over, he really became his own son.
