I'm only seven years old, Lao Zhu, you let me supervise the country?

Chapter 33 Don’t be in the limelight and don’t bend the law for personal gain!
Although Zhu Yunwen was the second child among Zhu Biao's sons, after Zhu Xiongying's death, he was actually the eldest.

Lao Zhu attached great importance to his education and invited famous teachers to teach him since he was a child.

At this time, there was a strong trend of literati writing poems, and Zhu Yunwen was no exception.

Occasionally reciting poems and doing right, promised talent.

He was once awarded by Zhu Yuanzhang for his outstanding poetry.

It also made him think more highly of himself.

……

"There are talented people from generation to generation, and each has led the way for hundreds of years."

He repeated this sentence in his heart, and the expression on his face was very complicated.

There is silence, tension, and worry.

Looking at Zhu Yunxi's gaze was like looking at a stranger.

All of a sudden, I was a little afraid that this younger brother was too amazing and talented, and that he overwhelmed his limelight, which would make him eclipsed.

"Grandpa Huang asked him to study in the palace. Could it be that he wanted to train him to be the crown prince?"

This idea is like a creeping tiger, quickly taking root and sprouting. It was inconspicuous at first, but soon filled the whole heart.

Zhu Yunwen felt increasingly uneasy.

Lu's eyes also widened. She also came from a family of poets and writers. Her father, Lu Ben, was once a minister of the Ming Dynasty. He had been reading and literate since he was a child, and he could hear the extraordinary nature of this poem.

Holding Zhu Yunzhen tightly in her arms, Ms. Lu said with a smile: "I have only heard about talented people in operas, and they have been extraordinary since childhood. I never thought that my boy, who is only seven years old, can write such a poem."

Zhu Yunxi scratched his head, feeling rather embarrassed, blushing and said: "Actually, you guys praised it absurdly. I overheard a monk recite this poem by accident."

The atmosphere in the field suddenly froze.

The three great scholars obviously did not expect it. Zhu Yunwen quickly asked: "Seriously?"

Zhu Yunlin blinked his big clear and innocent eyes, and said: "Of course it is true. The emperor must force me to write a poem on the spot, but I couldn't write it. Fortunately, I remembered the poem chanted by an unknown monk that day, so I recited it. Let the emperor hear it."

"It's not good for me to tell the truth to Grandpa Huang, for fear that the old man will be angry."

"I didn't expect that Grandpa Huang would publish this poem, and things will become a big deal now."

Don't let yourself get too popular.

Especially when the city is full of trouble.

Although the matter of business tax has not spread yet, the shock wave is expected to be not too small. It would be a bit too much to add a poet with unparalleled talent.

"Woo!" Zhu Yunqi let out a long breath, and a stone fell from his heart.

Fang Xiaoru touched the beard on his chin, Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng looked at each other, and the three of them couldn't help but smile.

Although this matter was unexpected, it was within reason.

This poem seems simple and straightforward, but it has a high intention.

How can a seven-year-old child be so ambitious and talented?
If you heard it from some unknown monk, it would make perfect sense.

Fang Xiaoru said with a smile: "The monk who can write such poems must be an expert in the world, but he doesn't know which temple he is practicing in. If he is free, I will definitely go to visit."

Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng were also yearning for it, and they also expressed their intention to inquire.

The hermit master has always been talked about by the literati.

They pursue fame and fortune, but envy those who escape from the world and stay away from the world of mortals.

If you have the opportunity to have a conversation with him, it will be a good talk among the scholars.

Zhu Yunxuan made it up, so he continued to prevaricate after hearing the words: "It's not a coincidence, I overheard it when I went to the pier that day. The monk chanted as he walked, and he has long since disappeared."

Fang Xiaoru and the others lamented it was a pity.

Huang Zicheng stumbled and sighed: "Since this person has become a monk, he presumably doesn't want to be disturbed by ordinary things in his practice. It's also because we have no chance with a master, so we can't meet him."

Zhu Yunzhen hid his smile and buried his head in Lu's arms to prevent others from discovering him.

Fortunately, several people were thinking, and no one noticed his abnormality.

Zhu Yunwen let go of the depression in his heart, recalled the poem, and couldn't help sighing: "There have always been countless great talents in the world, but I wish I could not use them to my fullest. Presumably my virtue is too shallow."

Qi Tai laughed and said: "There are always people who are arrogant and arrogant, and do not want to enter the court. Your Highness is quick-witted and ambitious, far beyond the reach of others, so there is no need to be too modest. A young man should have the arrogance of a young man."

Zhu Yunwen saluted respectfully and said, "Sir, the lesson is right."

Zhu Yunxi thought to himself that my elder brother can listen to other people's words.

If there hadn't been the Battle of Jingnan, maybe there would have been a reputation in the history books for being open-minded and accepting advice, and a good story about a wise emperor and minister.

It's a pity that IQ is still a bit insufficient, and it didn't end well after all.

After exchanging pleasantries, several people took their seats one by one.

Zhu Yunzhen still leaned on Lu.

After the ladies served tea, Mrs. Lu asked them all to leave.

Fang Xiaorufang said: "Your Majesty ordered the Fourth Emperor and his grandson to try the Bu family's corruption case, but it was a clever move."

"Oh?" Zhu Yunxi showed surprise in an extremely cooperative manner.

He really wanted to hear if these three people were really stupid.

"The fourth emperor's grandson is only seven years old, still a child, yet His Majesty ordered him to try a major case. This has never been heard in the ages."

"If my predictions are correct, His Majesty is not expecting the results of the trial of the Four Emperors, but to use this to muddy the water."

"Xiang Zhuang's sword dance is aimed at Pei Gong."

"A mere Bu family is not worth His Majesty's trouble. Your Majesty is targeting the people behind the Bu family."

Fang Xiaoru paused and uttered a few words.

"Sapphire, Lord Liang!"

Tick!
Tick!
There was a sound of dripping water coming from the toilet in front of the hall.

The room was unusually quiet.

Zhu Yunxi thought to himself, Fang Xiaoru, Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng are not stupid people either.

But come to think of it.

The three of them were not of noble birth like Zhu Yunqi.

Instead, he studied since he was a child and relied on his own ability to advance step by step until he reached the center of the Ming Dynasty.

Such a person may be a bit pedantic and a bit bookish, but he is definitely not a fool.

In the ups and downs of the officialdom, without extraordinary means and outstanding abilities, it is absolutely impossible to become an important minister of one dynasty and leave a name in the history.

Regardless of whether the reputation is good or bad.

They are losers, but it does not mean that they are weak.

But the people who are playing against them are too strong.

Compared with ordinary people, compared with the mentally retarded protagonists in later time travel novels, they are still much stronger and can easily crush each other without any effort.

Zhu Yunxi didn't think he was so smart, especially when facing these people, so he asked: "Then according to Mr. Fang's high opinion, how should I deal with myself?"

Fang Xiaoru said: "Your Highness has been entrusted by His Majesty and cannot live up to the high expectations. He should enforce the law impartially and find out one by one the evidence of how the Duke of Liang and the Bu family colluded with each other to commit corruption and run rampant in the countryside and prey on the common people."

Is this trying to put the blame on Lan Yu?
Zhu Yunxi thought silently in his heart.

Does Lao Zhu really mean this?
I'm afraid not necessarily!

It is not a trivial matter to punish Lan Yu.

If Lao Zhu doesn't move, it will be fine. If he moves, it will be thunderous.

The Bu family's guilt is not light, but when it comes to Lan Yu, it is not necessarily that heavy.

After all, they really have great achievements.

He was the master who even dared to desecrate Bei Yuan's imperial concubine.

I am afraid that the people of the world will be dissatisfied if Lan Yu is punished with a serious crime just because of the fortune-telling family.

Lao Zhu would not have thought of this level.

If he really wants to kill Lan Yu, he should still be charged with rebellion, so that he can't stand up and no one in the world can say anything wrong.

Because of the Bu family's affairs, there is no need to alert others.

……

Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng also nodded slightly, obviously they had discussed it long ago.

Zhu Yunzhen pretended to be puzzled and asked: "But after all, Duke Liang is a relative of my family and my uncle..."

"Fourth brother." Zhu Yunwen interjected from the side: "This matter cannot be done for personal gain or bending the law. There is no selfish relationship in the Tian family, not to mention that he is just a relative, not my mother's, and there is still a layer between us."

"You don't need to worry about the third brother, I will enlighten him."

"The third brother has always been sensible and righteous, so he won't blame you for this matter."

Zhu Yunzhen turned around and said with a smile: "I don't know how to judge a case. It's not all decided by a few gentlemen."

Zhu Yunqi nodded repeatedly and said: "You are still young and ignorant, so naturally you have to listen to your master more."

"And the next time Mr. Yin Gu of Yingtian Mansion comes, you must not miss him."

"Master Gu is the minister of the DPRK and is in charge of the capital. You are so lazy and have a bad reputation."

I'm just a child, what kind of reputation do I need?
Zhu Yunxi slandered secretly in his heart.

He nodded heavily: "Second Brother is right, next time Mr. Gu comes again, I will definitely not play!"
