Chapter 3 Helping the World and the People

"Yikes! Dogs, this palace is not in front of my father...... Emperor...... The noodles have burned the book, you dog-like things dare to rob this palace, get up, let me come! ”

After Zhu Houzhao finished speaking, he snatched the "Annotations on the Analects" from Li Zhaotong's hand, and was about to tear off the pages of the book and throw them into the honeycomb coal stove.

"Bastard! Stop it! ”

Emperor Hongzhi's face was terrible, this Li Dongyang's second son had a brain disease and burned his own books, and now he still wants to take his son - the future emperor of the Ming Dynasty, when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?!

At this time, Li Zhaotong came back to his senses, and he finally understood what the "earthquake" meant.

The young man in front of him called himself Bengong and called him his father, although his voice was very small, but he was close and heard clearly.

Then it is obvious that this young man is the current prince Zhu Houzhao, and this middle-aged uncle who calls himself me is the current saint Zhu Youji.

What to do?

On your knees? No way!

I, Li Zhaotong, were kicked by Dongchang Fanzi, arrested by Jinyiwei, and ordered by the emperor to be beheaded......

All right! A manly man, who can bend and stretch, if he encounters these cruel realities, he still has to kneel.

But now......

Li Zhaotong thought about it, the emperor and the crown prince were obviously out on patrol, and they definitely didn't want to make a noise, so they shouldn't have to kneel.

So, Li Zhaotong immediately bowed down and bowed, and said, "The grass people have seen His Majesty ......."

Sure enough, Emperor Hongzhi waved his hand, interrupted Li Zhaotong's luggage, and said, "Excuse me!" I go out on patrol, don't make a noise. ”

"Okay!"

Li Zhao nodded like a chicken pecking rice, his posture was lowered as much as possible, thinking about how he could remedy the situation in front of him, and then he saw Deng Jian trembling on the ground, and suddenly his anger surged, and evil was born from the side of his guts, and his right foot kicked Deng Jian's ass heavily, and shouted:

"Something like a dog, didn't you hear Your Majesty say to keep it secret? Why don't you hurry up, do you want to leak the world's secrets?! ”

Emperor Hongzhi glanced at Li Zhaotong, nothing happened, seeing Deng Jian trembling and getting up, standing to the side, he asked to clear his throat, his expression became serious, stared at Li Zhaotong, and asked:

"Say it! Why do you burn books? ”

"Be lenient in confession, strict in resisting!" Zhu Houzhao learned this sentence somewhere, and added on the side.

"Return to Your Majesty......"

"Just call me Master Zhu."

"Back to Master Zhu's words, the grass people are doing a great thing for the benefit of the country and the people!" Li Zhaotong carefully organized the language and replied.

Fused with that soul from the future, Li Zhaotong knew that the Hongzhi Emperor in front of him was a good person, a benevolent monarch, and the kind that would not go on a killing spree.

But he knows better, it's just relative!

True Dragon Son, which one doesn't have a tyrannical factor in his bones?

What if evil is born from the side of his guts?

It's even more terrible for an honest man to be angry!

So, be careful!

But his prudence, in the eyes of Emperor Hongzhi, is ridiculous.

Emperor Hongzhi sneered and asked in a cold tone, "Oh? It's the first time I've heard that burning books can benefit the country and the people? ”

"Yes!"

Li Zhaotong replied in the affirmative.

For this, he is full of confidence, and he has integrated the soul from the future, and he knows very well that this Zhu Xi's annotated version and the distorted version of the imperial court's distorted version of the Four Books and Five Classics are things that imprison people's minds, and it is not good for the country, the people, or the future!

Burn it well!

But surely he could not answer that, for he seemed confident and not a deceitful because of this, and then he pretended to be a fool and quibbled:

"Master Zhu, the grass people were entrusted with a dream by my ancestor of the Li family yesterday, and I have a skill that can solve the suffering of the people in the world who are attacked by the severe cold and cannot afford firewood and charcoal.

The ancestors of Lao Tzu also explained that the grass people used this technique to create things, and they needed to burn the Zhuzi Collection of Four Books and Five Classics to open the light, so as to promote the world and help the people of the world.

Therefore, after the grass people made this thing, they burned the Zhuzi Ji's annotated version of the Four Books and Five Classics to consecrate it. ”

Emperor Hongzhi is a good man, a good husband, and a good emperor, but this does not mean that he is perfect.

Not to mention anything else, he is no different from most emperors, he is very superstitious, and he has always hoped to make himself better through the art of Buddhism.

So much so that there was a very famous eunuch among them - Li Guang.

That's right! It was the Empress Dowager who complained, "Today's Li Guang, tomorrow's Li Guang, it's really a disaster." Then Li Guang, who was so frightened that he committed suicide.

Li Guang bewitched Emperor Hongzhi with a talisman prayer, and then accepted bribes to harm the people, and then was impeached by the imperial historians, but Emperor Hongzhi still trusted him.

Therefore, Li Zhaotong's pretending to be a ghost really frightened the superstitious Emperor Hongzhi, and Emperor Hongzhi's face became a little better, and he asked in a deep voice:

"Then you explain to me how this thing can help the world and the people."

……

"Rebel!"

Li Dongyang arrived.

"Your Majesty'......"

"Just call me Master Zhu." Emperor Hongji corrected.

"Master Zhu, the courtier has a brain disease, you must not believe his nonsense!"

When Li Dongyang entered the door, he heard Li Zhaotong's rhetoric, and he chose not to believe it at the first time, because he didn't say anything else, just said that Lao Tzu was his ancestor Li Dongyang, Li Dongyang himself didn't know, how did Li Zhaotong know?

Obvious nonsense!

Although the emperor suppressed the two major intelligence agencies of Dongchang and Jinyiwei, this does not mean that Dongchang and Jinyiwei will be abolished, if the emperor wants to check whether Laozi is the ancestor of the Li family, Dongchang and Jinyiwei will definitely not be able to find out, because it is too long.

But Dongchang and Jinyiwei can definitely find out that the rest of his Li Dongyang family doesn't know that Lao Tzu is their ancestor, so how should Li Zhaotong explain this when the time comes?

Therefore, in order to protect Li Zhaotong and prevent Li Zhaotong from being punished by Emperor Hongzhi for the crime of bullying the monarch, Li Dongyang could only make this decision to shut up Li Zhaotong and explain his nonsense on the grounds that he had brain disease.

"Dad, I really don't talk nonsense, this honeycomb coal and honeycomb coal stove can really solve the suffering of the people of the world who are attacked by the severe cold and can't afford firewood and charcoal."

Of course, Li Zhaotong will not accept Li Dongyang's kindness, his life span is only thirty hours away, and if he doesn't seize the opportunity, he will be cold.

Moreover, he himself is really sure to use honeycomb coal and honeycomb coal stoves to help the people of the world, and he does not boast, and the fusion of the soul from the future, engineering, has become a subject he is good at.

Speaking of which, if he was given time, he could babble on for three days and three nights.

Therefore, Li Zhaotong seems to be full of confidence.

His confidence also infected Emperor Hongzhi.

Emperor Hongzhi waved his hand to stop Li Dongyang's anger, and said in a calm tone:

"Binzhi, don't worry, let the virtuous nephew talk about it, if you can really help the world and the people, the virtuous nephew will make great contributions, if not, I won't blame."
