My uncle's name is Zhu Di

Chapter 21 Zhu Di's Wrath of Thunder (for further reading)
Zhu Di has never been so angry. He can tolerate an important official in the court, who is lazy in government affairs, and runs to the Qinhuai River to drink flowers and wine. He just needs to be punished according to the law.But what is Qitai's concubine doing here?
You were officials in the same dynasty at the beginning, but now Qi Tai and others have been killed, except for the implicated relatives, the rest have been demoted to slaves and live in brothels.

You came here to find someone else's concubine, really elegant, very elegant!

"Catch, arrest Ru Yu immediately, I'm going to chop him up!"

Zhu Di was already mad, Yao Guangxiao was still calm, "Your Majesty, there are still remnants of rebellion against the Party in the city. Your Majesty is making private visits in disguise. Don't expose your identity. This matter will be dealt with in the court tomorrow morning. You should return to the palace as soon as possible."

"No, I can't take it anymore, Ming Dynasty Hall, you can't allow such a beast, not even for a moment!" Zhu Di suddenly stood up, planning to arrest him himself.

At this time Xu Jingchang said quietly: "Your Majesty, I think you must not go, otherwise, there may be some rumors that your Majesty and Ru Shangshu are jealous..."

"Fart!" Zhu Di rolled his eyes, "Xu Jingchang, you need a beating, I'm going to beat you to death!"

Zhu Di raised his sandbag fist and was about to throw it at Xu Jingchang.

"Your Majesty, people's words are terrible, and they have always been like this. This matter can be dealt with directly. When I go to court tomorrow, I will impeach all officials and say that they have misbehavior."

After Xu Jingchang finished speaking, Yao Guangxiao was overjoyed, "Your Majesty, Xu Tongzheng's method is good, and it is most appropriate for him to impeach. Hurry up and return to the palace, otherwise the palace gate will be closed, and if the matter spreads, it will inevitably startle the snake."

Zhu Di had no choice but to agree.

Just like that, he returned to the palace full of anger, Ji Gang followed, and Yao Guangxiao also left.

Only Wu Shan and Xu Jingchang were left.

At this moment, Wu Shan's face turned pale, and his voice trembled: "My lord, your majesty's thunderous anger, I'm afraid that blood will flow into rivers tomorrow?"

Xu Jingchang rolled his eyes, "It can add a lot of goods to the Qinhuai River."

Wu Shan was startled, and then he understood Xu Jingchang's meaning, his face withered into a dog ignores the steamed stuffed bun.

"My lord, your counter-offensive is really amazing!"

Xu Jingchang snorted, "Now you know? Go and search quickly to find some evidence of their crimes. If you behave well tomorrow, you may even be able to advance to the third level, but you may not be sure."

In an instant, Wu Shan seemed to be poured with chicken blood, screaming strangely, and hurried to work.

Xu Jingchang was calm, and he had a good night's sleep to recharge his batteries.

Before dawn, Xu Jingchang got into the carriage and rushed to the Meridian Gate. Jian Yi, Xia Yuanji and others had already arrived, including Ru Yu.

Xu Jingchang took a peek at him, and found that this man was full of energy, and he didn't look tired at all.

Hey, I went to drink flower wine last night, and I can still do this now, I have to say, I am really strong!
Xu Jingchang stood on the side of the civil servants. There were seven people in front of him, six ministers, plus a Zuodu censor.In other words, among the civil servants, he ranked eighth, and the Minister of Dali Temple was still behind him.

But in the group of generals, Qiu Fu was sick, and Han Wang Zhu Gaoxu did not come.

The leader became Cheng Guogong Zhu Neng, and Xu Jingchang didn't know if it was an illusion. He looked over there and found that Cheng Guogong smiled at him with his teeth bared.

Is this a way of saying hello to me?
Xu Jingchang didn't know what he was thinking, but at this moment, Yao Guangxiao arrived.

He accepted Zhu Di's award and was ranked as the Duke of Rong, so he also stood on the side of the general Xungui.

Xu Jingchang also heaved a sigh of relief with such an old man pressing the battle.

The old monk stepped on the spot, and then under the guidance of the officials of Honglu Temple, he entered the palace and paid homage to the emperor, following a set of procedures.

Zhu Di's face sank like water, his eyes were bloodshot, obviously he couldn't hold back anymore.

"Your Majesty, I want to impeach all officials."

Xu Jingchang stood up and said sharply.

When he said this, everyone present was stunned, especially the group who just went to sue Xu Jingchang, their faces were embarrassed at the moment.

You little bastard is too rampant, we impeach you, you want revenge?
We are all upright ministers of the Qing Dynasty. If we falsely accuse the courtiers, we will bear the consequences.

Zhu Di couldn't wait to say: "What are you impeaching?"

"My minister impeached the Minister of the Ministry of War Ruyu, a total of 53 officials, lingering in brothels, indulging in prostitutes, and corrupting the national code. The crime is heinous. Especially the Minister of the Ministry of War, Ruyu, went to find Qi Tai's concubine. This matter is simply unspeakable! "Xu Jingchang said loudly.

When Ru Yu in the team heard this, his old face changed slightly, but he was a bit of a man after all, so he didn't panic at all.

Zhu Di looked at him, and said in a deep voice: "Ru Shangshu, what do you say? But have you been to a brothel?"

Surprisingly, Ru Yu said directly and calmly: "Your Majesty Qizuo, I have been there, and it was yesterday."

This sentence stunned Zhu Di, you really have the guts to admit it!
"Then why?" Zhu Di asked.

"To see the prisoner's family." Ru Ting replied honestly.

This time Zhu Di was completely confused, "Ru Shangshu, those rebellious ministers and you were colleagues in the past, but you got involved with their female relatives, isn't it too much?"

Ru Yu said calmly: "Your Majesty, the old minister has no intention of taking advantage of others' danger, let alone throwing stones into trouble. Speaking of the old minister who served as the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, it was Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng who plotted against the old minister and demoted him from Yingtian. Your Majesty is responsible for this matter." knew."

Zhu Di was stunned, "Indeed, I do know, and because of that, I promoted you to Minister of the Ministry of War."

Ru Yu smiled and said: "Your Majesty is gracious to the world. Everyone knows that the old officials and Qi and Huang are at odds. Now they are killed, their relatives are imprisoned, and the rest of the concubines' family members are demoted to the happy family. The old officials go to Qinhuai, I heard that some young people took advantage of the opportunity to abuse, fell into trouble, and forced some people to throw themselves into the river to die. Your Majesty has already punished them. Even though they are servants and maidservants, they should not be allowed to be disposed of by brothels at will. Where is the law of the country? Go, just to beat the villains, and have no other evil intentions. Moreover, this move is also to show His Majesty's benevolence, and I hope the Holy Son of Heaven will learn from him."

After Ru Yu finished speaking, Zhu Di was speechless.

He had pardoned Sheng Yong earlier, and declared that only Qi Tai, Huang Zicheng and a few others were guilty.It is indeed inappropriate to hunt down Jianwen's old officials to the end.

Even better, Ru Yu had a conflict with Qitai Huang Zicheng, and they were not on the same road. He did have a grandiose excuse for going to Qinhuai River.

Of course it's just an excuse.

But this is enough, many courtiers looked at Xu Jingchang with malicious intentions, you little bastard who doesn't know the heights of the sky and the earth, have you kicked the iron plate?
If you still want to fight with us, you will have to eat for decades!
Xu Jingchang smiled slightly, "Ru Shangshu, you are indeed righteous and dignified, I thought you were going to revenge!"

Ru Yu was furious in an instant, "Xu Tongzheng, you are spewing blood and framing this old man. Even if you have an unusual status, I will definitely not agree."

As she said that, Ru Yu was about to turn around and complain to Zhu Di.

At this moment, Zhu Di was very embarrassed. The so-called catching a thief requires being dirty, and catching a traitor requires double.

If he rushed in yesterday and took Ru Yu directly, he would not be able to quibble, but now he can only talk about each other, what should we do?
He glanced at Xu Jingchang, but found that Xu Jingchang had a smile on his face, not panicking at all.

Does this kid have cards?
"Ru Shangshu, your majesty came to Beijing a month ago, and you were in charge of renovating Yudao Tianjie. Is this right?"

Ru Yu was taken aback, "It is true that this matter was done by the old man and the Ministry of Industry, but what does this matter have to do with your slander of the old man?"

"It doesn't matter much, it's just that someone took the best stone materials from Xiuyu Road and paved the road of Qinhuai River, which made Tianjie uneven. Your Majesty, the emperor, ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor. The road he took is not as good as the road leading to the brothel. ...Ru Shangshu, do you think this is disrespectful, is it a crime of deceiving the emperor?"

Ru Yu's expression changed suddenly, "You, you are talking nonsense, you are framing this old man!"

Xu Jingchang smiled, "I have witnesses for what I said."

"Witness, who is your witness?"

Xu Jingchang smiled and said, "Of course it is Your Majesty. Your Majesty, do you still remember the two stones that I handed over?"

Only then did Zhu Di suddenly realize that he was only thinking about how to deal with the officials and put an end to the unhealthy tendencies.Only now did he realize that there was something deeper hidden.

"Go, fetch the stone."

Not long after, an eunuch brought over two stones.

Zhu Di stood up himself, grabbed a good one, and said with a smile: "This is the way you go to the brothel to drink flower wine." Then, he picked up another broken stone, and said mockingly: "This is the road for my enthronement ceremony." The way Zu walked, good, really good!"

In the next second, Zhu Di lifted the stone and threw it viciously at Ru Yu.

"Smart words, especially shameless!"

Zhu Di gritted his teeth and scolded, Ru Yu fell to the ground in response, and the courtiers exclaimed in horror...
