Under the collective gaze of the three people who claimed to be the top nobles of the Ming Dynasty, Zheshanjun tried his best to maintain a posture with his head held high, trying not to appear too weak. In any case, he is the royal family sent by Goryeo to the Ming Kingdom this time, and others may scold and humiliate him in person, but they will not beat him.

But even so, the sadness of being slaughtered in his heart lingered. Finally, he saw the three of them move en masse, and surrounded him from three sides. Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the envoy next to him, but the foot was raised and retracted, obviously cowardly and afraid, he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.

The second son of the deceased prince, the nephew of the present king, with the consistent tradition of the royal family's children who have no hope of power, what else is there to defend a man like him, except for his honorable status?

However, just when Zheshanjun was full of self-pity, he suddenly heard a laugh: "At a young age, you can change your mistakes, and you dare to act, but I underestimate you!" ”

When he said this, Zhu Er didn't see the expression of the middle-aged Goryeo envoy who almost didn't stare at him, and the fierce and vicious spirit when the Xingshi asked for the crime before disappeared, replaced by a cordial and warm one. This kind of face-changing ability was learned by him and Lu Xiaofatzi, although he was not proficient in using it at this time, it was enough to bully an immature child in front of him.

And when he said this, Zhu Er also patted people on the shoulder affectionately, and he didn't realize that this kind of action between relatives and friends was not suitable for strangers. And after patting the shoulder of the mountain king, he said with a smile: "Since you have the intention of asking for sin, it can be seen that you can change it." Well, in this case, how about you go to the palace with us and ask for guilt in person? ”

Zhu Er pondered that it didn't seem to be suitable for inviting people out to play or something at this time, so he had an idea and came up with such a perfect excuse. When he said it, he couldn't help but praise his wit in his heart.

Zheshanjun only felt that his mood had risen and fallen, and the whole person was confused. He was mentally prepared for the worst, but he was suddenly praised for knowing that he could change his mistakes and dare to act? And then they dragged him into the palace to plead guilty in person? He is a Goryeo royal family, and he has just arrived in the capital of Daming, and he must wait for the edict to enter the palace...... Besides, where is the palace, can you enter casually?

Sure enough, when he was in a daze, he heard an opposing voice next to him: "Second Brother Zhu, the Goryeo mission has just arrived in the capital, and the host and guest department of the Ministry of Rites probably haven't reported it yet, so why are you talking about entering the palace, this is too self-talking, right?" The guards at the palace gate won't let people go. ”

And after saying that after admonishing Zhu Er, who was talking to himself, Ji Jiu smiled at Zhi Shanjun in a friendly manner. But before he could continue, Zhang Datou snorted: "Second Brother Zhu is right, you can finally change your mistakes, you can be regarded as a man!" I heard that you are going to Guozijian in the future? If someone wants to bully you, then report my name, my reputation as a big man is still somewhat useful in Guozijian! ”

Where is this? Ji Jiu only felt that he had a little brain pain...... These ones are all unreliable, no wonder the emperor will personally name himself to come with him. Otherwise, with the virtue of Zhu Er and Zhang Datou, the so-called temptation may become a disaster!

Therefore, he couldn't stand it anymore and said decisively: "Okay, don't scare Zhishanjun!" Thinking that he is a newcomer, and he doesn't understand my Ming customs and various rules, this will make a big mistake, even so, then we, as the people of the Ming Dynasty, always have the obligation to let him understand this, so as not to make the mistake of swaggering through the market in a sedan chair in the future. ”

Speaking of this, Ji Jiu said earnestly: "Zhishan Jun, like the prince of the Qin State Mansion, the people of the Ming Dynasty who can't rub sand in their eyes, are not one or two, this is not a thorn, but the heart of maintaining my Ming tradition." ”

After first putting a layer of fair and honest skin on Zhang Chen's arrogant words and deeds before, he said with a straight face: "Today, the three of us will naturally write a letter to ask for guilt when we go back, but we will also write to ask the emperor, let the three of us teach you the various etiquette rules of my Heavenly Empire, and let you see the difference between my Ming capital and your Goryeo territory!" ”

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but pull up Zhu Er, who still wanted to speak, and Zhang Da and left. It wasn't until a few guards didn't have time to react that they left the gate of the Huitong South Pavilion that Zhu Er and Zhang Da both reacted, and after they hurriedly broke free, the two of them were full of anger.

"Hey, we're here to ask the sinner, right? Why did you suddenly run away? Zhu Er only felt that his heart was full of resentment.

"That is, what does it mean to go back to the book and ask for sin?" Zhang Da was even more puffy, "We are not ...... the emperor"

Before Zhang Da said that this was according to the emperor's orders, Ji Jiu covered the person's mouth, and then saw that it was already far away from the guards over there at this time, so he said angrily: "If you don't leave the main and guest department of the Ministry of Rites, believe it or not, that guy will come up and directly detain us and let the elders in the family come to collect people, or send us to the Shuntian Mansion for legal action on the grounds of causing trouble?" ”

"The reason why the emperor only let the teacher pass the word is that he obviously doesn't want ordinary officials to know about this matter, and you still plan to say to the people of the Ministry of Rites and the Lord and Guest Department that we are here by order or what?"

Seeing that Zhu Er and Zhang Da were speechless, Ji Jiu could only say helplessly: "I have found out enough inside information today, go back and write a letter of guilt with a similar meaning according to what I just said, and then send it up, the emperor will definitely approve it as soon as possible, let us take that person Shanjun around the capital, so that after crossing the bright road, the task can be completed in two or three days." ”

"It's going to take two or three days......"

Zhang Da's brow wrinkled directly into a big pimple. He thought it was a matter of getting caught as soon as he got out of the horse, but he couldn't do it right away, and he had to take his time?

And Zhu Er finally agreed with Ji Jiu's proposal this time: "Also, they have just arrived, and before the imperial court has a clear meaning, the people in the mission should not be able to move freely in the capital, and that Shanjun is a Goryeo royal family, so they can't run around." Ji Jiu, you have a good brain, no wonder the emperor asked you to come together! ”

Do you know now why the emperor called me along!

Ji Jiu complained in his heart, but his face couldn't show his contempt for Zhu Er. It's the teacher's brother-in-law, and he has to save face when he should save face. And when he walked back to meet those followers, he suddenly thought of another thing, and asked casually: "By the way, do you know how to write a letter of guilt?" ”

He asked, but there was a tacit silence. Turning his head to look, he really saw Zhu Er and Zhang Datou looking at him with innocent faces, and he almost said that you have written it and borrowed us to copy it. In the face of these two uneasy accomplices, he could only sigh and say, "Let's just do it, after I write it, you can sign it together." ”

These words undoubtedly made Zhu Er and Zhang Da feel relieved. Just like many of Zhang Shou's children wrote review reports, as far as the two of them are concerned, from childhood to adulthood, it is most common to admit mistakes and make amends, and it is also common to be pressured by the elders to write a letter of repentance.

But even if they write often, they can't stand the fact that they have to rack their brains every time they write this thing, and they really can't write!

Ji Jiu was already numb to his two accomplices, and what he was even more speechless about was that Zhu Er and Zhang Datou, as if they were afraid that he would regret it, actually dragged him to a teahouse, and then Zhang Datou first went to sell the four treasures of the study, including the blank music of Yazhai, and bought the whole set of things.

As soon as the person came back, Zhu Er personally sharpened the ink, and asked Ji Jiu to quickly write the letter of guilt. In this regard, the helpless Ji Jiugongzi could only suppress the urge to beat people, splashed ink, and wrote a flowery ...... Review, no, please write guilty.

He used very beautiful writing to describe the anger of the three of them after hearing Zhang Chen's rebuke Shanjun enter Beijing in a sedan chair, and then packaged the trespass on the South Pavilion of the Association as an impulsive incident under anger, and then downplayed the incident of shouting and screaming to disturb the chickens and dogs, and lightly said that it was a friendly negotiation to release the previous suspicions.

In the end, Ji Jiufang sincerely apologized and deeply repented, and at the same time expressed that as the people of the Celestial Empire, he was willing to help the small Goryeo royal family who sent the envoy to appreciate the Ming etiquette and culture, so as to influence the hearts of the people of Fanbang.

The whole article was written in one go, and Zhu Er and Zhang Datou looked at each other. Zhang Datou couldn't help but mutter: "I can write this kind of article, why do you still take the Jiuzhangtang exam?" Isn't it good for you to stay in Guozijian and take the Jinshi exam in the future? ”

Ji Jiu suddenly laughed: "If you can write this kind of article, you want to be admitted to the Jinshi?" Dream on! I started writing this kind of confession in my early teens to fool my dad and other elders, but you asked me to write that kind of well-formatted eight-strand essay, and I didn't know anything. Besides, my father was also a famous talent back then, and he would try the ninth and the seventh in the palace test, how would it be in the end? ”

"This is the position of the boss of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but I can't climb up! The two above him wrote better articles than him, had a deeper family background than him, and were more effective than him in the same year, and they were better at doing things and being a person than him. Besides, my brothers, cousins, cousins, and the like in my family are more readable than the other, so I have long seen through it, and with my qualifications, unless I meet a nobleman, this life will be like this! ”

Speaking of this, Ji Jiu closed his mouth. And Zhu Er and Zhang Datou, of course, all knew what Ji Jiu wanted to say next. Ji Jiugongzi, who was supposed to get by, met Zhang Shou, who did not play cards according to common sense, but was still extremely hot, so he naturally relied on the past without saying a word, so it became like this.

They are actually similar, so of course they won't laugh at anything, and they even praised Ji Jiu's writing again, and then they signed their names on this petition by themselves, not only that, but Zhu Er even read it there over and over again, so that Zhang Datou couldn't help but be a little suspicious.

"Second Brother Zhu, what else are you reading? Dislike Ji Jiu's petition is not well written? ”

"It's because Ji Jiu writes well that I have to memorize it, otherwise if I turn around and be asked about the guilty letter, but I can't even memorize the first complete sentence, wouldn't it be terrible?" Zhu Er saw that Zhang Da looked stupid as if he hadn't expected it at all, so he said earnestly, "Besides, if the host and guest department of the Ministry of Rites failed to catch us today, maybe they will sue us at home." ”

"Think about it, even if someone asks the emperor about the crime after going back, we tell the father at home that this is acting on orders, but do we still let people confront the emperor? With my father's character, even if he knew that this was true, maybe he would beat me first, and when the time came, memorize a few sentences of Ji Jiu's article, and then explain the ins and outs clearly, maybe he could escape a catastrophe. ”

Big Zhang was finally really shocked this time. Zhu Er is still a sister-in-law, is his desire to survive so strong? Zhao Guogong Zhu Jing, is this a more violent character than his father Xiangyang Bo Zhang Qiong?

Thinking about the beating he received during the previous cheating incident, if Zhang Shou hadn't escaped here, he might have been beaten to death, or beaten half to death, he quickly took a deep breath, and then ...... Without saying a word, I joined the ranks of Zhu Er's manuscript memorization!

However, if Zhu Er's qualifications are not good, and he can't study and practice martial arts, Zhang Da still has some advantages of brute strength, but his reading brain is even worse than Zhu Er's. So, Ji Jiu on the side saw the two of them stumbling there, Zhu Er easily remembered seven, seven, eight, eight, and eight, but Zhang Da forgot about it for a long time, which was miserable.

He couldn't stand it, so he simply took a piece of paper, copied it in three or two times, then dried it and stuffed it into a big man, and said with a tiger face: "Okay, don't waste time, take it back and carry it slowly." Before the sun set, I tried to find a way to hand things over, so that I could cross the clear road, so as not to go back and spread the word that Sanying would join us, but our letter of guilt was nowhere to be seen! ”

Zhu Er was very supportive of Ji Jiu's decision, and as for Zhang Datou, he hurriedly folded the inked paper carefully into dried tofu and carried it in his arms, where could he take care of anything else.

However, when he walked out of this small teahouse, Zhu Er suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly grabbed Ji Jiu: "You will send this thing directly to the General Administration?" Although we are the children of official eunuchs, it seems that we are not qualified to play directly in the book, right? ”

Ji Jiu glanced at Zhu Er obliquely, thinking to himself, do you know now that you are not qualified? When you boasted in front of that Goryeo Mountain King that you were going to bring people into the palace to ask for guilt, why couldn't you take care of your mouth?

You are not your eldest brother and Zhu Ying, how can you have the ability to break into the palace like this? And with a Goryeo royal family!

He smiled angrily, and then said seriously: "Don't forget, I happened to be studying in Ciqing Palace this month. ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Er was envious and jealous for a while, after all, he probably couldn't pass the exam even in the middle of the mountain. And the big guy has a black face. He was one less person in the monthly examination of Banshan Hall this time, so he was once again unsuccessful in Ciqing Palace, just for this, if it weren't for Xiangyang Bo Zhang Qiong who was busy with the Northwest Development Fund because of Zhu Ying and Zhang Luo, maybe he would be beaten again!

And Ji Jiu's words stimulated the two of them, but they also knew that it was enough, and then they didn't say more, and immediately rushed to the palace after parting ways with the two, and Shun Shundang entered Ciqing Palace. Of course, at this time, the third prince was no longer there, but it did not prevent him, who still had the responsibility of cleaning the study of Ciqing Palace, and pressed the letter of guilt on the desk where the prince used to read and listen.
