Daming, originally wanted to destroy it, but the system came

Chapter 299 Xu Da, you are so naughty

After coming out of the palace, Zhu Zhen was almost mad at his stupid brother.

What do others say? How dare you say disloyalty and unfilial piety from your mouth?

If this is used by someone with ulterior motives, saying that even your own brother disdains your reputation as Zhu Chun, it will be a big blow.

This guy is still a Confucian student, right? You have grown up, and you follow outsiders and scold me behind my back?

Bad brother, just wait.

Today, only with the presence of their mother and concubine, Zhu Chu could not have an attack, otherwise he would definitely have to whip that boy Zhu Song.

Not even Li Jinglong's dandies dared to contradict Zhu Xi, and even Zhu Yunzhen and those from the emperor's grandson's faction had to stay away from the edge for a while.

Obviously, someone wants to take advantage of Zhu Song.

Somehow, Zhu Zhen suddenly thought of Yongzheng in history.

Among the nine legitimate sons, Yongzheng also had a younger brother, who also did not agree with him, and instead ran to become the eighth master.

Even Yongzheng's biological mother also favored his fourteenth brother and had an alienated and indifferent relationship with Yongzheng.

The situations of the two people are unexpectedly similar?

"But I am not Yongzheng. Although I did use a lot of his political ideas and methods, my civil, political and military skills are all lacking. Eh? Old man Shiquan?" When Zhu Ming thought of Qianlong, he couldn't help but feel a little nauseous. .

Those who have watched Iron Teeth and Bronze Teeth Ji Xiaolan may more or less remember that there is a chapter that mentions the crime of crime.

I originally thought that it was just a fictional plot, but who would have thought that it turned out to be true, and that the criminal silver system actually happened in history.

Good guy, if a corrupt official makes a mistake, he only needs to pay a fine to be exempted from guilt and have his sentence reduced? Or even stay on the job to check?

Is this equivalent to saying that I embezzled 10,000 taels and only need to pay 7,000 taels, so I am not guilty? And then continue to be greedy?

Your Emperor Qianlong has directly become the biggest source of corruption. Will the people still have a way to survive?

Therefore, among all the emperors of the Qing Dynasty, Zhu Ming only admired Yongzheng and Kangxi in his youth. As for the others, he would not comment.

It's better to do your own thing first, and don't let yourself become a joke for future generations.

While thinking wildly all the way, Zhu Ming came out of the palace and looked up and saw that there was no one outside.

After the morning court, the civil and military ministers did not go home directly, but went to work.

But Zhu Zhen didn't have to be like this. He was a vassal king who only had a title and title but no actual official position.

It is equivalent to saying that the vassal king will only lead troops to fight when it is necessary to defend the border and protect the country.

As for normal times, most of the princes just live happily in their respective vassals. They don't even care about ordinary local political affairs, and they are not qualified to interfere.

"Let's go to Xu Mansion," Zhu Zhen stepped onto the carriage and called to Wang Fu to drive.

As for Li Gui, he has already returned home early.

Now that Li Gui's heart disease is gone, he finally meets Zhu Zhen honestly.

Zhu Zhen no longer guarded against him, and even told him bluntly that he would be of great use in the future and would do great things.

So it was time for Li Gui to start taking action. The task given to him by Zhu Zhen was also very simple. He was asked to secretly investigate whether anyone in the Jinyiwei team had begun to become corrupt, and to have relations with those ministers of the court, nobles and even various aristocratic families. All contacts and friendships.

Even Jiang Yu needs to be investigated.

Jiang Wei has been the commander of the Imperial Guard for such a long time. He is a person that all civil and military officials in the dynasty need to fawn over. As long as Jiang Wei is willing, money can be made in large amounts like running water.

But Jin Yiwei has a special mission. There is a saying that although many people in later generations smeared Jin Yiwei and threw dirty water, Zhu Ming always believed that the existence of Jin Yiwei was necessary.

One is to send Jin Yiwei to serve as secret spies abroad to grasp real-time intelligence from the outside world.

Furthermore, he could also place informants internally so that the emperor's eyes and ears could be spread throughout the country.

Even if it is just a deterrent, it can also serve as a warning to officials not to take bribes and oppress the people in Yurouxiang.

This is simply an ancient agent.

In fact, Jin Yiwei is not the first one. There have been people similar to Jin Yiwei in previous dynasties.

For example, there was the Imperial City Department in the Song Dynasty, and the bad guys in the Tang Dynasty became more famous because of the animation of the same name. Some unofficial historians even fabricated that the Blood Drops organization was established during the Yongzheng period. Of course, this is nonsense.

Zhu Ming didn't want to abandon such a useful organization, but he also didn't want this organization to become corrupt. In that case, it would be the biggest disaster.

Therefore, Zhu Zhen will not reuse Jiang Yu. He has his own people and his own plans. Li Gui will be the best candidate to take over Jin Yiwei in the future.

Li Gui can finally enter Zhu Chu's inner circle, so let him go about his business.

Here, Wang Fu drove his car, already familiar with the road, and arrived at the gate of Xu Mansion.

Before Zhu Chu could knock on the door, the door suddenly opened and several people came out.

"Eh? Isn't this Your Highness? See Your Highness," the imperial doctor Dai Sigong hurriedly bowed with his hands clasped in fists.

Although the two of them had not seen each other for half a year because of Zhu Chu's expedition to Mobei.

But don't forget that Dai Sigong is not only the imperial physician of Tai Hospital, but also Zhu Chu's personal physician. Logically speaking, Dai Sigong no longer needs to work in Tai Hospital and only needs to stay in Zhu Chu's house.

It was just that Zhu Chu was young and strong, as strong and healthy as a cow, so Dai Sigong had nothing to do all day long, so he once asked Zhu Chu for permission, hoping that he could still work in the Tai Hospital.

Dai Sigong is already quite old, but he still can't be idle. He is a person who does practical work.

"I am preparing to go to the palace in the afternoon. I will take the time to take your pulse and check your health. Moreover, I specially prepared several jars of medicinal wine for you a year ago to replenish your vitality," Dai Sigong said enthusiastically.

There were all middle-aged and elderly imperial doctors around. When they heard this, they couldn't help but look at Zhu Ming up and down with a strange expression.

Your Highness is so young, why do you still need to use medicinal wine to nourish yourself? Isn't it because he committed adultery, robbery, and other crimes?

Zhu Chu also blushed for a rare time, and said angrily: "Dai Sigong, I used medicinal wine to nourish my blood in conjunction with my own exercise regimen. Please don't spread any misunderstandings to me. I am only fifteen years old. , it’s the time when you can’t use up your strength and masculinity, so don’t talk nonsense.”

Dai Sigong was stunned for a moment, and then he realized what he was doing. He quickly turned around and explained to his colleagues: "That's right, His Highness's body is as strong as a cow."

"Yes yes yes yes yes yes."

Others nodded in agreement, meaning that you are right and everything you said is right.

Zhu Ming shook his head in confusion, knowing that they definitely didn't take it to heart, and he didn't bother to say anything. This kind of thing would only get darker and darker.

"What are you here for?" Zhu Chang changed the subject and asked, "Is there something wrong with Uncle Xu's condition?"

He was worried that it would be bad if Xu Da's condition changed.

Considering Xu Da's age and physical condition, it is not an exaggeration. Any infection or inflammatory complications caused by surgery would be enough to kill him.

In just one night, he might die.

"Your Highness, please rest assured that the Duke is fine," Menyuan said from the side.

Now even the attitude of the courtyard has been turned upside down, and it is extremely polite.

After all, Zhu Chu saved their master and was a great benefactor to everyone in the Xu family.

The imperial doctors also explained that they were here to check Xu Da's pulse. At the same time, some people were curious and inquired, mainly asking where the infusion medicine came from and how Zhu Chu obtained it.

Again, Chinese medicine has long been aware of the importance of surgery. As early as the Hua Tuo era, it developed leprosy powder, which was an anesthetic specifically designed to cooperate with surgical research.

Traditional Chinese medicine has a history of thousands of years. It can even be said that it has grown up with the five thousand years of Chinese civilization. The earliest story is about Shen Nong tasting hundreds of herbs.

At the same time, don’t talk about Western medicine, just scorn the whole world.

After the assurance of these imperial doctors, Xu Da's condition has indeed stabilized, and he only needs to slowly nourish himself.

Regarding this aspect, the methods of Western medicine are not enough, and Chinese medicine has to be prescribed.

They did not dare to prescribe overly powerful medicines, for fear that Xu Daxu would not be replenished and would be replenished to channel blood.

Zhu Ming asked briefly and communicated about Xu Da's condition.

Finally, a young and beautiful maid came out of the gate and said to Zhu Zhen: "Your Highness, Madam invites you."

"Ah, His Highness is also here to check on the Duke's condition, right? We can't delay any longer. It's time for us to go back to duty," the doctors all consciously resigned. Dai Sigong bowed extra deeply before leaving.

Speaking of which, Dai Sigong is also a wonderful man. In a way, he is similar to Liu Sanwu. He is upright and not afraid of power. He says what he says and says one thing and another.

When Prince Zhu Biao passed away, he was the only one who dared to tell Zhu Yuanzhang outright that he should prepare for his funeral because he was too ill to save him.

He was so angry that Zhu Yuanzhang asked him, are you afraid that I will chop you down?

As a result, Dai Sigong said that if your majesty wants to kill me, you should take good care of your own body first. Afterwards, it turned out that Dai Sigong had been taking care of Zhu Yuanzhang's health problems at any time.

Zhu Yuanzhang was helpless with him, and he was definitely reluctant to kill him. He even pointed out Dai Sigong to Zhu Ming thoughtfully. He was indeed very skilled in medicine.

Let's not mention these for now.

Zhu Zhen winked at Wang Fu, meaning that he didn't have to wait for him, and then followed the maid into the courtyard alone.

After walking a few steps, Zhu Zhen asked with a strange look on his face: "Wait a minute, are you my sister's maid? Why did the lady invite me?"

It turns out that this maid is not Jia's maid at all, but a talent from Xu Miaojin's yard.

Zhu Zhen was almost fooled by her because he had been away from the capital for so long.

The maid just covered her mouth and snickered secretly, and continued to lead Zhu Zhen to the backyard.

In the backyard, Jia, Xu Da and Xu Miaojin's family were sitting around a round table.

Xu Miaojin glanced at Zhu Ming, pouted, and said nothing.

"You are really good at handling things. It made my daughter anxious. She was too embarrassed to use her own name, so she had to treat you in my mother's guise." Jia glanced at her daughter lightly and snorted.

It's not that I'm really unhappy, it's just teasing and joking from the elders.

"Mom," Xu Miaojin grabbed Jia's arm and shook it a few times, rarely showing the shy posture of a little daughter.

Jia finally couldn't help laughing. This girl used to be like a tomboy. At best, she was called a woman, but at worst, she was a wild child.

She was obviously a girl, but even her brothers couldn't beat her with her martial arts skills. She had dealt with Li Jinglong and other dandies before, and even Chang Mao, a famous dandy, had to take a detour when he heard of her reputation.

Who would have thought that now he would be treated obediently by the eighteenth-year-old Zhu family?

Xu Miaojin happened to be passing by the front yard just now. When she saw Zhu Zhen coming, she waited happily for a while.

As a result, she became a little anxious when she saw that Zhu Chu had been outside the door talking endlessly with the imperial doctors who were about to leave, so she used her mother's name to ask her own maid to invite Zhu Chu in.

And this scene happened to be seen by Jia, so he made this joke.

Zhu Zhen laughed sarcastically. He was still a little afraid of this mother-in-law. Mainly out of respect, he didn't dare to speak casually. Instead, he turned to Xu Da and asked: "Uncle Xu, how are you feeling? By the way, why are you up? You should take care of yourself." Stay."

"What are you talking about? I hurt my back, not my butt. Why can't I even come out and sit down?" Xu Da said angrily with his eyes wide open.

I have to say that Xu Da is really tough. If he were an ordinary old man, he had just experienced a serious illness and had an operation. At this time, he might not be able to get up.

Fortunately for him, he got up early the next morning regardless of the cool weather.

Zhu Ming rolled his eyes: "Yes, yes, you are right, I was wrong, can I apologize?"

Hearing his nonsense, Jia and Xu Miaojin, mother and daughter, suddenly laughed.

"Look what you said," Mrs. Jia rolled her eyes and scolded: "It's too late for us to thank you, so how can we ask you to apologize? But your Uncle Xu is an elder after all. With your relationship with Miaojin, you can Be polite, otherwise, you will suffer a lot in the future."

"Mom," Xu Miaojin was so shy, why did she turn around and run towards her?

Zhu Ming could only apologize.

At the same time, I sighed in my heart, in fact, this is the atmosphere that a family should have. It's a pity that he comes from an emperor's family, not to mention the most ruthless emperor's family, there is not much warmth.

If he hadn't taken the initiative to relent in the morning and changed the title of Concubine Zhou from the unfamiliar mother concubine to mother, Concubine Zhou would not have relaxed even a little bit.

You are a mother, and I am a child? Do you still think you are a little girl? You already have two sons, please be more careful, my mother.

Not to mention that Zhu Yuanzhang's harem is so huge that there is no time to stay in the courtyard of a concubine every day. Plus Zhu Yuanzhang is so old now, I am afraid he only has political affairs to do all day long.

Look at the Xu family again, how harmonious it is.

However, Zhu Ming still had to say to Xu Da: "Uncle Xu, it's not that my nephew doesn't respect you, it's just that you have just finished the operation and now is the most critical time. In fact, your back gangrene itself is not difficult to treat. What is difficult is the treatment after Recovery issues. I think you should also know that many people who have suffered from this disease did not die during the operation, but died due to inflammation caused by postoperative complications."

Even if Xu Da didn't understand the meaning of complications and inflammation, he knew that what Zhu Xi said was the truth.

The imperial doctor had told him before that treating back gangrene would only involve breaking open the affected area and squeezing out the pus, and might even involve cutting off a large piece of flesh.

Treatment is not difficult, but what is difficult is that at Xu Da's current age, it may be difficult for him to recover, and even if he is cured, he may die.

That's why it was said that he could only wait to die. If he didn't get treatment, he could live for a while longer, but if he got treatment, he might die that night.

"So you'd better come into the house with me, and I'll check your wound again," Zhu Zhen said, dragging Xu Da into the house without any explanation.

If you don’t know this, you might have to think more.

Fortunately, neither Jia nor Xu Miaojin are rotten girls, so they would not think of the couple as inappropriate for children.

Check your body, right?

Xu Da sighed and said with a wry smile: "I didn't expect that I spent my whole life in the army, and now that I am old, I am still being taken care of by a junior like you."

Having said that, he still has to be obedient, and it seems that Xu Da doesn't have as much respect for Zhu Zhen as he did before, but he used to call him "His Royal Highness".

However, this is the tone Xu Da used to express intimacy.

Jia Shi and Xu Miaojin also came in curiously. Anyway, Xu Da's wound was on his back, and it was not a shameful place.

Zhu Zhen didn't stop him. This time it was not a surgery. As long as there were no sources of bacterial infection such as malignant infectious diseases, Xu Da was not afraid of being exposed to the risk of infection.

However, when Zhu Zhen helped Xu Da take off his shirt and exposed the wound on his back, he immediately became anxious.

"What's going on? Why is there so much blood?" Zhu Zhen was angry. It turned out that Xu Da had a lot of blood on his back at some point, and it had even formed scars.

This is not because his wound has healed. He knows that the subcutaneous tissue must have been torn, causing bleeding, and even overflowing the cotton cloth he had bandaged, and it has already seeped out.

What happened? He said he should pay attention.

"Harm, if you're injured, you'll have to bleed," Xu Da didn't care.

Are you really not in pain?

"What a mess," Zhu Zhen was so anxious that he didn't care about his tone and lectured: "You have a wound in the subcutaneous tissue, and I sutured your skin. Do you know what this means? It means there is a lot of blood, water and effusion. It's left under the skin. Do you know where your back gangrene came from? It's caused by inflammation and lesions in the subcutaneous tissue. Once these things become inflamed and suppurate, they will be more serious than your back gangrene."

After hearing his explanation, the Xu family finally realized the seriousness of the problem.

"What should I do?" Xu Miaojin held Zhu Ming's hand anxiously, her eyes were red, and she begged, "You must save daddy."

"Don't worry, sister, I even had the gangrene on my back removed. It was discovered early now. As long as there is no inflammation, it will be fine." Zhu Miao comforted Xu Miaojin, and then said to Xu Da: "Get down, it looks like the stitches need to be removed. ."

Xu Da was like a child who had made a mistake. How could he dare to talk back at this time? He could only do whatever Zhu Ming said.

Zhu Ming also found that the bedding on the bed had been replaced with new ones. After all, he had just completed an operation yesterday, and he walked free and easy, completely ignoring the blood on the bed.

When Xu Da lay on the bed, Zhu Zhen glanced at the mother and daughter who naturally refused to go out, and hesitated for a moment.

"What's wrong?" Jia asked, "Can't we all stay here? With your relationship with Miaojin, even if you change your name to mother, I can afford it."

After all, Jia had already seen from Xu Miaojin's pace that these two children were so bold that they did all that, so she was really rude.

Zhu Zhen sighed secretly, and finally said nothing, but directly conjured a pair of surgical scissors out of thin air.

This magic trick finally made both Jia and Xu Miaojin's eyes widen. The mother and daughter were already similar in appearance, and now they both widened their beautiful eyes and stared at Zhu Chu.

It turns out that what Zhu Zhen was hesitating about was whether to reveal his secret.

But after much thought, Xu Miaojin was his woman, and as his pillow, sooner or later she would know his secret.

What's more, with his current foundation, he may no longer need to be as cautious as before.

So what if someone knows?
