Chapter 690: Zhu Que Yazhang (6)
Zhangde Mansion City Anyang, Zhao Wangfu
Zhao Wang Zhu Youqi has been unable to sleep since he knew the news of Linzhang, and he was in a hurry to get on fire, and there was a circle of bubbles on the side of his mouth, and when he spoke, the corners of his mouth were painful.
He had to cover his mouth and hiss, while waving weakly at his son: "Don't cause trouble, don't cause trouble......
"If you don't cause trouble, won't disaster come?! Woe is coming, Father and King! Zhu Houyu, the son of the world, bit his back molars and said.
Zhu Houyu is the eldest son of Zhao Wangyan, 16 years old, intelligent since childhood, diligent and inquisitive, especially good at poetry and writing, because of the beautiful literature, he is also quite famous in the literati circle of Zhangde Mansion.
King Zhao has always been indecisive, although the prince is still a young man, he has to mature early, and now he can afford half of the Zhao Wangfu.
It's just that when encountering such a major event related to the survival of the entire feudal kingdom, it is still up to King Zhao to call the shots.
However, what King Zhao has done in the past few days is to ask his talented son to write one after another brilliant excerpts and send them to Jingshi......
"We are waiting for the holy decree, and they didn't have the holy decree and copied Linzhang anyway!" Shizi stomped his feet and said, "Liao Boring's eunuch has not come to see you until now......"
The internal fighting within the clan was extremely frequent, and it was even more ferocious, and Zhu Youqi, the king of Zhao, was not almost killed by his father Zhu Jianxuan before, and how could he be less than the kings of Linzhang, Tangyin, Pingxiang and other counties.
In fact, it is not very pleasing to the eyes of the prince of Zhao Wang, to be honest, he is happy to see it come to fruition, but he must not be charged with "causing trouble to the place and attempting to rebel"!
The former said that Zhao Wangfu was incompetent and lacked restraints, and it directly affected the reputation of Zhao Wangfu.
Not to mention the latter, it was really considered a rebellion, then, looking at the fate of the Shanshan Domains after the Anhua Rebellion, you will know what will happen to the Zhao Domain.
But his father......
King Zhao closed his eyes, covered his mouth, and only waved his hand at his son, "It's ......good if Liao Bo doesn't come."
But it was said that Cao Cao Cao arrived, and while he was talking, King Zhao outside and his attendant Fei Fei also rushed to report, Governor Shen Rui, the town guard eunuch Liao Bo, the commander Zhou Xian, and the prefect Yu Pan came to visit.
Zhao Wang opened his eyes violently, the hand covering his mouth shook unconsciously, his face became a little whiter, he stabilized his mind, and asked, "Zhou Xian?!" Can...... With soldiers and horses? ”
The waiter also barely squeezed out a smile, but it was more ugly than crying, "There is a team of people outside, but they are waiting outside the mansion gate, and they are not ...... No ...... of the wall."
King Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a sad face: "Let's change clothes." ”
He turned his head to look at his son, and he hadn't decided whether to let him go with him, because he wanted his son to be strong and courageous by his side, but he was afraid that this kid would cause a big disaster if he didn't cover his mouth.
As a result, the prince didn't wait for him to make a decision, greeted him, and strode out of the door and went back to change clothes.
King Zhao had no choice but to sigh and admit it.
Then, very quickly, he regretted it.
The carriage hall saw that the ceremony was set up, and without waiting for everyone to open their mouths, the prince of Zhao Wang had already taken the first step in a very intimate tone, and asked Zhou Xian with a smile: "Why did my cousin come to Zhangde?" But on an errand? ”
King Zhao's brain buzzed when he heard the "order", but he had no urgency, and he opened his mouth but didn't know how to diverge.
Zhou Xian had already put on a warm smile towards the juniors, and said softly: "Exactly." The emperor ordered Governor Shen to take charge of the military affairs of Shandong and Henan, and I respectfully obeyed the holy decree and obeyed Governor Shen's order, and then came to Zhangde. ”
The prince smiled innocently, and said innocently: "It turned out to be such an order." The little nephew also said that it was the emperor's clever calculation, and he had already guarded against the feudal domains. ”
As soon as these words came out, it was difficult for everyone to look at them.
The imperial court's defense against the feudal domains has not been for one year, two years, ten years, or eight years, and it has been guarding against it since Yongle.
It's just that this layer of window paper can be pierced?!
Shen Rui and Liao Bo said coldly almost in unison: "The prince is cautious." ”
King Zhao almost turned his back on his anger, and hurriedly found a way to paste the window paper, while scolding the prince, while telling everyone that the children's families were ignorant, and they listened to some rumors indiscriminately.
The prince didn't care at all, turned his head and stared at Shen Rui, and said with a smile: "So, I don't know how Lord Shen was ordered to raid the Linzhang Palace?" ”
Shen Rui smiled faintly, in the history of his previous life, this future King Zhao had both virtue and ability, and he was a rare good prince in the clan, and he actually had some expectations for him. Unexpectedly, now, this is just a bear child.
Without answering the prince, Shen Rui only turned to King Zhao and said, "The lower official is waiting here to make it clear to the prince." The subordinate officials quelled the chaos in Wu'an County, and found out that the bandits were actually raised by the Linzhang Palace, and the auxiliary general Zhu Youxing had many illegal things in Cishan and Cizhou, and the matter was urgent. ”
The prince once again rushed before his father spoke, and said coolly: "Emperor Taizu Ming Zu has a cloud, 'The emperor's relatives and relatives have committed crimes, and the heir will decide himself.'" Those who commit minor offenses are allowed to meet with their relatives in Beijing, and those who are serious are to meet with the kings outside and their relatives in Beijing, all of which are taken from the upper judgment. ’”
When it came to the last sentence, he specially bit the accent and stared at Shen Rui and Zhou Xian.
Shen Rui turned his head and arched his hand at Shizi, "Shizi is very knowledgeable. It's just that Xia Guan remembers that there is another sentence in the ancestral teachings, which is, 'Only conspire against the disobedience'. ”
Shizi's face became darker and darker, and he said sharply: "Lord Shen is cautious! How can the felony of treason be hastily concluded?! Adults should know: 'Whoever hears about the king's small pass, and leaves to see his relatives, he will be beheaded; If it is heard that the king has a great sin, but there is no actual test, and whoever hears about it will be guilty of the same'! ”
But Liao Bo sneered on the side, and said with a bit of a mockery: "The grandfather of the prince is familiar with the ancestral teachings, but there are also a few boxes of cases that Lord Shen has collected, whether there is any 'actual verifiable', the prince might as well go and take a look." ”
Prefect Yu Pan has been quietly shrinking in the chair as a serious illness, at this time peeking at Liao Bo, and scolded in his heart, this damn eunuch accepted a lot of courtesy, but turned around and wagked his tail at Shen Rui! Hmph, Shen Jiaojia must get rid of Liu Dang, and look at what happens to this eunuch!
Shizi seemed to be extremely disgusted with Liao Bo, only glared at him, and still said to Shen Rui: "Such a serious crime as rebellion should be judged by the imperial court, not just a few confessions from mountain bandits and homeless people that you can find somewhere!" ”
"Private checkpoints and forged customs defense seals are all evidenced by physical objects. According to the law of the Ming Dynasty, it is also a capital crime. Shen Rui said, "The prince can rest assured, how dare the lower officials 'arbitrarily judge' the clan, all the dossier evidence has been handed back to the Jingshi, and the emperor will judge it." ”
The prince was only thinking about tearing up the kidnapping and attempting to rebel, but he was dumbfounded for a while, and instead argued forcefully: "If you are punished by death according to the law, it is only one person's ear, how dare you raid the palace without authorization?!" ”
Shen Rui didn't reply, but turned to King Zhao and asked, "Zhu Youxing has been privately setting up checkpoints and arenas for nearly ten years, and the prince doesn't even know about it?" ”
King Zhao kept wanting to interject but didn't interject, but it was his turn to speak at this time, but it was such a sharp question, he couldn't help but have a headache, opened his mouth, and could only say: "I really don't know, it's the king's negligence...... That, this king has written to the emperor......"
The prince could only put aside his own topic, and first came to relieve his father, saying: "My father is kind-hearted and his relatives are well known, so he can't help but be deceived by their clever words. And in the end, the two places are separated, and the previous clan is not allowed to leave the city without a will, and the constraints on the foreign provinces are also weaker. As soon as this incident came out, my father was also shocked, and even if he wrote an excerpt and entered Beijing, he couldn't sleep for the past few days......"
Shen Rui nodded and said: "I have long heard that the prince is lenient and charitable, and this time Henan was affected by the disaster, and the prince and the prince also donated rice to set up porridge sheds to help the victims. As he spoke, he asked Governor Yu about this.
Yu Zhifu could only put on a smile on his face, and said in a hoarse voice, but he could also tell where the porridge shed was, showing that he had done his homework before coming.
Liao Bo also interjected, saying that he had also heard about it, as if he had forgotten that he had just passed away, and touted the father and son of King Zhao, and praised King Zhao's benevolence and righteousness, and set an example for all the vassals.
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly relaxed.
In the end, Zhao Wang Shizi is a half-old boy, no matter how smart he is, how can he be worthy of this group of officialdom, he was a little confused, and he was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses, and couldn't help but secretly scold Shen Rui for being treacherous and diverting the topic.
But as soon as this breath is released, it is difficult to mention the matter of the raid on the Linzhang Palace.
Besides, since Shen Rui and the others praised their own house like this, that is, they separated their own house from the Linzhang Palace, and protected the reputation of the Zhao Palace, so what else did he want!
Turning around and seeing his father, who was obviously relaxed and speaking polite words, Shizi suddenly felt that he was a little stupid before. Grinding his back molars, he didn't want to talk anymore.
Liao Bo waited for a lot of officialdom to be polite, coaxing King Zhao to smile.
Shen Ruifang said: "The lower officials are here, one is to explain the matter of Linzhang to the prince, and there are a few small things, I want to ask the prince to show me." At the moment, the most important thing is the relief to the victims just mentioned. ”
King Zhao is weak, but he is not a foolish person, and he hurriedly said: "They are all the people of the Ming Dynasty, this king, as a descendant of the Zhu family, should do his part. ”
Saying that, he went to see his son again, coughed, and wanted to remind his son to hurry up and say a few more nice words, but when he saw that this stinky boy pretended to be dumb when he looked at his nose and nose, he couldn't help but be angry, and he didn't speak when it was time to speak!
I had no choice but to continue: "In the first month of the lunar month, the palace will add a few more porridge sheds, and this matter will be handled by my son. ”
Shen Rui looked solemn and respectful, and said: "The prince's kindness and kindness are really a blessing for the people!" It's just that I heard that the little prince of Ningfu went to Beijing before, and he brought some guards, and the Zhao Mansion also helped with some grain and grass. The prince donated food so generously this time, I don't know if the surplus food in the house is enough, don't be wronged in the house. ”
Talking about the little prince of Ningfu, his gaze swept over Yu Zhifu over there, and Yu Zhifu couldn't help but stiffen.
King Zhao also looked uncomfortable, not because of the Taimiao Si Xiang!
An honest man like him doesn't want to have anything in the future, but he also doesn't want to offend a person who may ascend to the sky in the future, so not to mention grain and grass, even if he is entangled, he also offers some.
In front of a henchman like Shen Rui, how dare he say anything good about his succession, he could only sneer: "They are all relatives of the family, so they will help, well, they will help one or two." ”
Fortunately, his precious son helped in time, and the prince said: "Lord Shen, don't worry, the palace still has some surplus grain, and a few Wangzhuang can more or less transfer grain over, and my father will also repair books and Zhao belong to various feudal mansions, so that more rice and grain can be donated to benefit the place." ”
Shen Rui arched his hand and said: "The lower officials have thanked the prince and the prince on behalf of the people!" ”
Liao Bo smiled and added, "Linzhang's grain and rice can also be used for disaster relief, and it can also solve the urgent need this winter." ”
The prince of the world was angry, glared at Liao Bo viciously, but he couldn't hold back, and sneered: "I heard that Lord Liao has gained a lot when he first came to Zhangde, but do you want to donate it to help the victims?" ”
Instead of being annoyed, Liao Bo slapped his hands and said with a smile: "The prince is really like a god, and our family is planning to do this." As he spoke, he said to Shen Rui: "There are many officials and squires who also want to do their part and donate some money and food, and our family has made a register one by one. ”
The son of the world was so angry that he smoked, and scolded him shamelessly in his heart, obviously scraping the ground, and he was whitewashed as the world's first good man in two sentences!
I thought again, if these two people are embarrassed, the surnamed Shen pretended to accept the account book, but he didn't accept the stolen money, and turned around to make a fake account to prevaricate! He's going to keep an eye on these two things, and once he gets the handle, he'll make them look good!
Yu Zhifu was galloping in his heart, and it was just a matter of this eunuch who raised his voice to help show favor to Shen Rui, and actually donated money and food, did he really want to take refuge in Shen Rui? Or do you want to see Shen Zhaojia menacing and temporarily avoid the edge?! It's also about how many things go after......
However, those who take refuge or don't take refuge say that even the damn official gentry donate grain and rice, and they will also cheat people! The eunuch of the town guard said that he had donated, could he be able to watch it as a prefect?! I don't know how much it will cost to break this time!
Shen Rui didn't expect Liao Bo to cooperate to such an extent, so he was busy praising Liao Bo politely.
He doesn't care if Liao Boring is pretending to donate food at this time, it is fake, and he will also squeeze Liao Bore's real donation.
Shen Rui's ears have already been filled with Liao Bo's glorious deeds of scraping the ground along the way, that is, Liao Bo wants to take refuge in Zhang Yong after Liao Boing, and he will not let it go easily, and he must let this guy spit out all the stolen money to build Henan, "take it from the people, use it for the people".
After Shen Rui praised Liao Bo, he turned the topic back to King Zhao's father and son, "Lord Liao said that the prince is like a god, and sure enough, two of the things that the lower official wants to show the prince have also mentioned just now." ”
King Zhao couldn't help but be a little nervous again, and the prince's face was also difficult to look at.
Shen Rui seemed to be unaware, and said to himself: "First, Zhao belongs to the affairs of the domain, although the prince also restricts the mansions, but as the prince said, the prince is the most benevolent and does not avoid being blinded by others. When the lower officials were investigating the Linzhang case, they were also involved in Tangyin and other countries, so they had to investigate it again, so they came to show the prince. ”
are all eyeing the Tangyin Palace, what are you asking? The king of Tangyin and the king of Linzhang are all the way. King Zhao was busy clearing it up and said, "It was this king's negligence before, well, negligence." If there is a violator of the law of the land in the provinces, this king will never protect it, well, never protect it! ”
As soon as his voice fell, Shen Rui immediately followed up with the sentence "The prince understands the righteousness", and his tone was much more sincere than praising Liao Bo just now.
Then he said slowly: "Another matter is related to Wang Zhuang. The prince also knows that the emperor has ordered the acres of fields in Qingzhang, Henan, and will soon be in the city of Qingzhang, of course, including all the palaces and villages, and the cooperation of the government. Previously, when the case was tried in Linzhang, it was found that there were many hidden fields and malicious contributions, all of which were confiscated or returned to the original owners in accordance with the law of the country. Hereby I would like to show you the prince. ”
Although King Zhao doesn't care about the general affairs, he still knows these in his heart, there is a way that horses have no night grass and no fertilizer, and support all kinds of expenses for such a large palace, only relying on the little Wang Zhuang on the surface, how can it!
It's just that one of them on the left understands the righteousness and the other on the right is in accordance with the law of the country, how can he still say no? !
King Zhao only felt that his neck was so stiff that he couldn't nod or shake his head.
The prince glanced at Shen Rui deeply, "Lord Shen is saying that every family in Zhangde Mansion must be clear?" All the feudal provinces in Henan have to be cleared? ”
Shen Rui pretended to be surprised and said: "The emperor's decree has been issued for a long time, hasn't the prince heard about it?" The emperor decreed that all provinces, prefectures and counties, and every household in Henan should be cleared. ”
As he spoke, he bowed his hand to King Zhao and said, "The prince is also an example for the Henan domains. ”
Shizi said coldly: "Among the countries of Henan, my father is not the oldest, because he is not the one with the highest seniority, this example, Zhao Fu does not dare to take it." ”
Qingzhang Tianmu, that is, snatching food in the mouth of the clan, itself Lu rice is difficult, from time to time there are arrears, and then take away the acres of land, it is really going to force the anti-clan!
How could the Zhao Mansion stand on the opposite side of the clan! The prince of the world is secretly ruthless, promising to donate food for disaster relief is already very face-saving, and then mentioning Qingzhang, it is an inch, that is really going to be said in front of the emperor!
Liao Bo sank his face when he heard this.
At the beginning, it was Liu Jin who proposed Qingzhang Henan, and Liao Bo, as the vanguard of Liu's party, has been in Kaifeng Mansion for a long time.
Now that Liu Jin has fallen, but this policy has not been abolished, Liao Bo figured out the emperor's intentions, and planned to continue to make a great contribution in Qingzhang, so as to wash away the mark of Liu Dang and reuse it.
Qingzhang has to start from Zhangde, if Zhao Fan is stumped, then it will be more difficult for the princes to implement it later.
"Is the prince preparing to resist the decree?" Facing the roadblock, Liao Bo's eyes were full of coldness, and his tone was calm, he really wanted to immediately change from resisting the will to rebellion, and completely knocking Zhao Fan to the ground.
"Hu ...... Nonsense, nonsense! This hat was buttoned down, and King Zhao was angry and anxious, and his mouth was stumbled.
The prince of Zhao immediately shouted: "Lord Liao, don't spew blood!" ”
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became tense again.
Zhou Xian, who had not spoken all the time, started the round and said lightly: "Lord Liao is also dedicated to sharing worries for the saint, and the prince is also loyal to the king and loves the people, both of them are kind-hearted, but they are in a hurry." ”
Zhou Xian's status in the clan and his status in the emperor's mind, Liao Bo knew it, so he had to reluctantly slow down his tone at first and said, "It's the lower officials who are anxious." ”
The prince ignored Liao Bo and only said to Zhou Xian: "Uncle Mingjian." He glanced at Shen Rui provocatively.
Shen Rui didn't even mention Qingzhang, smiled at the prince, and said, "There is one thing, but the son of the world will be able to set an example." Previously, the emperor decreed the promulgation of the "Ordinance of the Sect and Domain", which included the lifting of the prohibition on entering the office. ”
Shizi looked at Shen Rui with a mocking expression, "'If there is a general of the clan and a lieutenant of the Zhenguo Auxiliary Kingdom who is unwilling to confer the title, he can suspend the seal and take the exam with the students'......"
This ban on entering the office is also for those with low-level titles, he is the eldest son and has asked for the title of the prince, and is the natural next king of Zhao, what does it have to do with him? He's a great example!
But he heard Shen Rui say: "If the children of the clan want to enter the imperial examination, they must also study hard from the sect." With the talent of the prince, the scholar and the first are as easy as the palm of the hand, so if you want to establish this sect well, the mountain chief must be the son of the world. I think there are also knowledgeable children in various provinces who are willing to give it a try, and I am afraid that they will not all come to ask for guidance from the prince. ”
Shizi is a young man in the end, and he is a young man who is quite confident in his talents, and when he hears this, he can't help but feel proud and a little excited.
He also felt that he would inevitably go to high school in the scientific examination, but it was a pity that his identity could not end up, but if he could teach a few Jinshi students, wouldn't it show his knowledge even more!
Although he thought so, his face was still faint, and he said reservedly: "Shen Chuanyu praised it." ”
Shen Rui said again: "Zongxue must be established, there is another case, forgive the official bluntly, although there are talents in each province, it is inevitable that there are big trees and dead branches, and there are arrogant and sinful people such as Zhu Youxing, these people need Zongxue to make them clear and courteous, and know the law." Therefore, in addition to inviting famous teachers, Zongxue also needs to invite 'strict teachers' to see results.
Although each prefecture has its own sect, but I am afraid that there are still many shortcomings, the lower officials think that they should set up a post to oversee the overall situation, and they are suspended in the Zongren Mansion, and they sit in Henan to communicate with the feudal government and the imperial court. This position has a long way to go, not only needs to learn, but also needs talents, and people who have both ability and political integrity and responsibility like the son of the world can not do it. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Shen Rui in surprise, no one expected him to throw such a move.
In the regulations of the clan, it is required that all the children of the clan are enrolled in the sect, and those who cannot pass the examination and graduate will not have the title and Lumi.
If there is another "chief administrator" position above the sectarian schools of each prefecture, who is responsible for "communicating" the feudal government and the imperial court, then the authority can be imagined.
is as honest as King Zhao, and he can't help but be excited.
He cleared his throat and reminded his son, but when he saw that his son didn't know what he was thinking, he hung his head and was silent, so he had to say in his own voice: "If Zongxue can stand and stand firmly, and there will be more good talents in the future, it will not be able to enter the ranks, and it can benefit the local people, and it is also a matter of benefiting the country and the people." ”
After a pause, he added: "This king wants to allocate 100 acres of Wang Zhuang's land for the expenses of the sect. ”
Shen Rui praised and praised, and said: "I heard that King Hu Guangxing had funded the construction of the academy before, and he had also built a sect school in the past few months, and he also used some folk ethnic studies to urge the children of the clan to study and progress with "scholarships". In Shandong, King Heng also allocated silver and land to fund medical halls such as Jishitang in Qingzhou Prefecture. All kinds of good policies were written to the court and won a lot of praise from the emperor. Lord Wang, you can also refer to one or two. ”
King Zhao nodded again and again when he heard this, and immediately followed: "Great goodness! The same should be true of Zhaofu Zongxue. ”
King Xing and King Heng all clearly expressed their support for the regulations of the clan, and King Zhao was a wait-and-see faction before, but now there is a scourge of Zhu Youxing, or is it ...... Let's express our support for the feudal ordinance through the establishment of the sect.
If you want to say that you can boast about how well your own sect has been built, it is easy to be tight, and his son is a brilliant pen!
King Zhao glanced at his son and said, "You have memorized all of this, and once you have established the sect, you will do it one by one." ”
Shizi seemed to have figured out something, raised his head and responded to his father, and then solemnly bowed to Shen Rui, and said seriously: "Thanks to Lord Shen's love, Houyu is willing to give it a try." ”
When King Zhao heard this, he was relieved, and nodded desperately with a smile.
Shen Rui also bowed slightly, and politely said that the prince was too humble, he was still very optimistic about this young man.
"I have also heard about Lord Shen's construction of a college and medical center in Guang, Shandong, I wonder if my lord will build more academies and medical centers when he comes to Henan?" Shizi suddenly asked.
He also said, "Although the Zhao Mansion is not as rich as the Xingfu and Heng Mansions, it is also willing to do its part for the local and imperial courts. ”
The young man's eyes were clear and translucent, especially when he talked about the academy, his eyes were full of brilliance.
Shen Rui was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "The prince is benevolent and righteous." Don't hide it from the prince and the prince, the lower officials do have plans to build a academy, but it may be a little different from what the prince thinks. ”
"There are many rivers in Zhangde Mansion and even in Henan, and the weather has not been good in recent years, so we should make good use of the benefits of the rivers. Xia Guan has invited Li Qi, the secretary of the Ministry of Labor, to go out of the mountain, and also wants to build several water conservancy engineering colleges to study water control, canal repair, and irrigation in order to facilitate agricultural affairs...... I don't know if the prince is interested in this......"
King Zhao listened quietly, thought about it, and raised his eyebrows, "I want to hear it in detail." ”
A sincere smile bloomed on Shen Rui's face.
Someone who wants to be an "educator" clan is always ten thousand times stronger than a "mountain king" clan, and he will be very happy to push it.
*
And at the beginning of the lunar month, the one in the clan who was particularly engaged in his work and wanted to be promoted to the emperor, his son arrived in Beijing, and actively prepared for the "Taimiao Sixiang" and moved towards his dream......
