Chapter 295: Shackles
Not only Lin Yixuan had surprise on his face, but even the emperor had a look of disbelief on his face, looking at Zhou Ruocheng who was kneeling on the ground and pouting his buttocks.
"Zhou Ruocheng, what are you doing here?" The emperor asked.
"As the emperor saw, the small people implore the emperor to calm his anger, Lord Lin is just confused for a while, for the sake of Lord Lin's efforts to Huzhou and Dahua, and to govern Huzhou so well, spare Lord Lin this time." Zhou Ruocheng said.
The three people who heard this should have a black question mark face in their minds at this time. This sun came out in the west, and Zhou Ruocheng actually pleaded with Lin Yixuan, you must know that Lin Yixuan had the heart to kill Zhou Ruocheng.
Lin Yixuan was puzzled, because he didn't know why Zhou Ruocheng wanted to help him.
Jiang Xue's face was also very puzzled, as if a pair of guys who had never been in harmony suddenly became brothers and sisters, and everyone was surprised.
The emperor was even more puzzled, and he was even a little angry, because Zhou Ruocheng was actually going against his own wishes by doing this.
What kind of medicine is sold in Zhou Ruocheng's gourd?
"Zhou Ruocheng, what do you mean by this?" The emperor asked with some puzzlement.
"Although Lord Lin has some faults, but the crime will not be dismissed, although Huzhou has relied on the support of the imperial court and the care of the governor for so many years, but Lord Lin has also paid his own efforts, there is no merit and hard work, right, what kind of person is Zhou? It's just an idler, it's hard to say that it's to go to Shanghai to beg for a living, if it weren't for the emperor's grace, I think it's not so glamorous now, if you really talk about it, there are really some people who live by the emperor's prestige, after all, it's a soft meal, it's normal to be disliked, and it's ugly to say that someone Zhou won't be a man with his tail between his legs, dirty Lin Lord's eyes, Lord Lin can't stand it, so I have an opinion on someone Zhou, this is all a grievance between private people, and it's over if it's dealt with, Why make such an exaggeration? Zhou Ruocheng's head was on the floor, but his mouth was not idle, and he chattered a lot.
"Teacher Zhou, what do you mean is that this is actually just a matter between you and Yixuan?" Jiang Xue looked at Zhou Ruocheng and asked.
"Although I don't want to admit it, in fact, I also have some prejudices about Lord Lin, but prejudices are prejudices, the small ones are still self-aware, and the small ones are just grass people, and Lord Lin is the biggest official in Shanghai, I fight with Lord Lin, that is, the mantis arm blocks the car and hits the stone with an egg, isn't it? So at most, it's just thinking about it, do you think it's necessary to make it so exaggerated? Zhou Ruocheng said again, "Yes, Zhou's character is really not good, sometimes there are more things to do when I am full and have nothing to do, it is normal for Lord Lin to see that I am not happy, right, it happens that the relationship between the emperor and me is better, I think it is too much, I don't know Lord Lin very well, I don't know how good Lord Lin is, so I unilaterally came out for someone Zhou, and Xiaomin is grateful to Dade and cried bitterly!" But the emperor, you can't because of the grievances of the small people and not for the whole of Shanghai. ”
Even the emperor was a little stunned by Zhou Ruocheng's words, how could this be brought to the social affairs of Shanghai.
"Teacher Zhou, you are also a little thick-skinned, does the emperor not know what to focus on? also said that you are angry, don't you want to think that your status can be compared with Yixuan? Jiang Xue also said with an emphasis on meaning.
"Yes, yes, what the dean said is reasonable, it is a small self-esteem that is too high, and the emperor will shine when he gives a little sunshine." Zhou Ruocheng hurriedly said.
"But let go of Yixuan's personal grievances with you, he did affect other things because of things about you, if he didn't even do his job well, then what kind of ruling government is it?" Before the emperor could speak, Jiang Xue started first, "If you want to say that, Yixuan must be punished!" ”
"No, Lord Dean, who is not a sage? Don't talk about others, just say that I'm good when I'm small, I'm so big, how many mistakes have I made? Take me as the ruling government, it can be said that I have never fulfilled my responsibility to govern the government, if my boss is not Lord Jiang Hao or you, I am afraid that I will not even be able to get through the first day. You also know, what happened to Jiangzhou by someone from my Zhou? If it were really counted as a few times that I had died, if it weren't for the emperor's love, the Queen Mother Bodhisattva had a heart, and the little one would have been confessed to prison a long time ago, even a person like me The emperor can forgive, would a talented emperor like Lord Lin abandon it? The emperor's instructions are just angry words for a while. Zhou Ruocheng explained.
"Zhou Ruocheng, do you know what I'm thinking again?" The emperor glared at Zhou Ruocheng and said fiercely.
"Your Majesty. The villain is just guessing. Zhou Ruocheng replied again.
"Bastard! How dare you speculate on my thoughts! I see you're getting impatient! The emperor was furious.
"Small, the little one knows that he is wrong, the little one should not be arrogant, and ask the emperor to punish him." Zhou Ruocheng trembled and fell to the ground again.
The emperor looked at Zhou Ruocheng like this, and there was an atmosphere in his heart, but he couldn't vent it.
After a while, the emperor asked again, "Zhou Ruocheng, according to your meaning, I am still wrong to do this time?" ”
"No, no, no, what you said is right, but Lord Lin is a good official, abandoning Lord Lin will only increase your losses to the emperor, and the small ones are also the ones who have the courage to ask the emperor for instructions after careful consideration, this is just a small side of the word, and the emperor doesn't need to care." Zhou Ruocheng said.
"Zhou Ruocheng, you also know that what you are saying now is insignificant, right?" The emperor asked again.
"The small one is just a piece of grass
People, where is the weight? Zhou Ruocheng buried his head a little lower.
"In that case, then why are you still talking?!" The emperor asked again.
Zhou Ruocheng suddenly fell to the ground, "The little one should be damned, the little one should be damned, the little one should be shut up." ”
But even if Zhou Ruocheng said this, the emperor would not be happy, when it came to this, everything that should be said was finished, if the emperor was a fool, if he really didn't listen, then he wouldn't listen, but the emperor is also a smart person in the end, what Zhou Ruocheng said is not unreasonable, what really makes the emperor can't figure out why Zhou Ruocheng intercedes for Lin Yixuan, and it is still at this juncture.
"Your Majesty, in fact, I also think something is wrong, after all, the emperor has not succeeded to the throne yet, and there must be no news from the Queen Mother's side for this Weifu private visit to the south, your removal of the Yixuan ruling government is a big official position, which will inevitably alarm the Queen Mother, so the Queen Mother will also have some feelings, and please ask the Emperor to slow down a little?" Jiang Xue also said.
Zhou Ruocheng also sighed twice in his heart, Jiang Xue is also an old fox in the end, taking the affairs of the queen mother to suppress the emperor, it is true that the emperor has to do this step and there is actually no loss, but now the queen mother is still in power in the court, such a house will have some tongues, how can the emperor be such a cautious person, how can the queen mother leave a handle?
Now, it depends on how the emperor decides.
Zhou Ruocheng pointed his head at the emperor, and his fists were clenched.
The emperor sighed, "Since Lord Longzi has spoken, maybe I am still too arbitrary, but although this dismissal is exempted, this punishment is still given!" There is still to be one! ”
"Your Majesty, please speak." Jiang Xue's brows also loosened a little.
"From a business point of view, you Lin Yixuan relied on the convenience of work to do something that should not be done, this is already a dereliction of duty, and you will be fined to deduct three months' worth and hand it over to the treasury, do you have any objections?!" The emperor asked.
How much money did you spend three months in power? Lin Yixuan is the president of the Chamber of Commerce, does he care about this little money? Zhou Ruocheng thought in his heart.
Lin Yixuan knelt on the ground, "No objection." ”
"In the private matter between you and Zhou Ruocheng, I also want to say that you have nothing to do, yes, Zhou Ruocheng was arrogant before, and he did get into a big disaster, but he has already endured the punishment he deserves, and now Zhou Ruocheng is indeed tainted, but he is still innocent, and he is still my Dahua's people, not that you can give him all kinds of settings based on your personal preferences! Don't say that Zhou Ruocheng doesn't mind this, even I can't stand it, and people who stand in your position shouldn't make such low-level mistakes! Even ordinary people like Zhou Ruocheng can't tolerate it, how can you believe you?! How can I give you a heavy responsibility?! The emperor asked.
"Wechen knows it's wrong." Lin Yixuan leaned on the ground and replied sincerely.
"This time, for the sake of the Continent Lord, I won't pursue you, but! There's no next time! The emperor said.
"Wechen understands." Lin Yixuan replied.
"Oh! And also! You still owe Zhou Ruocheng an apology! The emperor said.
"Huh?" This was Zhou Ruocheng's voice, looking at the emperor with some doubts.
"Of course, it's not a verbal apology, it must be formal! A grand apology! Do you understand?! The emperor advised.
Eh, I said, Your Majesty, what are you making trouble with? Don't you know that Lin Yixuan doesn't want to see me? It would have been nice to teach this guy a little lesson, but this apology wouldn't be enough, right? With Lin Yixuan's temperament, would he think of himself? You're continuing to trick me, aren't you? Zhou Ruocheng wanted to convey this meaning to the emperor with his eyes.
But the emperor didn't even look at himself.
"In this matter, I also ask the Governor of the Continent to supervise it, and I also ask the Dean to agree to my selfish request." The emperor said to Jiang Xue.
"No problem, I will definitely help the emperor supervise." Jiang Xue said.
Zhou Ruocheng is still muttering in his heart, and the emperor is looking at himself again.
"Zhou Ruocheng!" The emperor said.
"Huh?" Zhou Ruocheng raised his head.
"Sharp teeth, it seems that the power of your tongue has not diminished." The emperor said.
What was the year, at most it was last year. Zhou Ruocheng lay on the ground, "The little one just suddenly has this idea that he wants to express, if there is something wrong, please ask the emperor to be a breeze." Zhou Ruocheng replied.
"I think it's a pity that your eloquence is so dry, you are already an official, I wonder if it's time for you to become an official again?" The emperor said.
Let me go back to being an official at this time? Please, my career is just getting started, okay? And in front of Lin Yixuan and Jiang Xue, are you clearly asking me to do it against the two of them? Your Majesty, you're too ruthless, aren't you?
"The little ones are hard to do." Zhou Ruocheng lowered his head again.
"Zhou Ruocheng? You don't want to be an official anymore? The emperor asked again.
"Think, why don't you want to, the grass people of the official who don't want to be are not good grass people, and the soldiers who don't want to be generals are not good soldiers." Zhou Ruocheng replied.
"Then why did you refuse me?" The emperor asked again.
"Because the little one has already promised the princess first." Zhou Ruocheng replied.
"What did you promise Luoying?" The emperor took a fancy to Zhou Ruocheng, with doubts on his face.
"The princess is opening a new style of teaching, and now the new deal has just started, the princess can remember me, a down-and-out idler, the little one is already grateful to Dade, after all, it is also for the sake of the future pillars of Dahua, the small one is now
I can't get out of my body for a while, and I can't live up to the princess's expectations of me, right? I also ask the emperor to forgive the villain for three years, and after three years, if the emperor still remembers Xiaomin, give Xiaomin an official and a half-job, and the little one must be grateful to Dade. Zhou Ruocheng said.
"Zhou Ruocheng, you are so bold, you dare to make conditions with me?!" The emperor looked at Zhou Ruocheng and said angrily.
"The little ones don't dare... Zhou Ruocheng lowered his head again.
"Your Majesty, Teacher Zhou is one of the important teachers in our school, is it a little inappropriate for you to openly dig the foot of the wall, you want to poach Teacher Zhou, my hundreds of children's courses, I can't find someone who can fill the vacancy of Teacher Zhou for a while." Jiang Xue also spoke.
Hearing Jiang Xue say this, the emperor also laughed: "Oh... In this way, I am still a little confused, forgetting that Zhou Ruocheng is also responsible now, it is my negligence, and I apologize to Lord Longzi. ”
"How dare you make the emperor apologize." Jiang Xue also smiled, "Since this is the case, it's not too early, the emperor and Teacher Zhou should stay with us." ”
"Oh, no, no, I'd better go back, this mansion is so big, I'm afraid I won't be able to find my way when I get up tomorrow." Let Zhou Ruocheng stay overnight at this time, borrow a gut Zhou Ruocheng doesn't dare to live here, what if you can't see the sun tomorrow?
"Forget it, Lord Zhou's family is originally mine, so it's more comfortable to live there." The emperor said.
"In that case, then I won't force it, I'll send it to the emperor." Jiang Xue said.
Jiang Xue sent the emperor and Zhou Ruocheng out, sent them into the car, and personally watched the two of them leave in their car.
After opening the Lin Mansion, the emperor suddenly changed his appearance, and said viciously to Zhou Ruocheng, "Zhou Ruocheng! What the hell are you doing?! ”
"Uh... Emperor.. I don't know what you're talking about? Zhou Ruocheng continued to play stupid.
"What am I talking about? I'm about to step down Lin Yixuan, why are you stopping me?! The emperor asked.
"Your Majesty, I just don't think it's appropriate to do this now... Zhou Ruocheng replied.
"Wrong? Tell me what's wrong! If you can't say it, don't think I'll let you go so easily! The emperor stared at Zhou Ruochengdao.
"Your Majesty, I think there are three things to dismiss Lin Yixuan now." Zhou Ruocheng said.
"What are the three must-haves?" The emperor asked.
"First, the original intention is wrong, if the emperor just said something about official affairs to remove Lin Yixuan from his position, it would have been said in the past, but help me out, it will be somewhat selfish, who am I, and who is Lin Yixuan? Losing the watermelon for the sake of sesame seeds is a bit uneconomical, right, and the emperor, you are the symbol of this country, and sometimes you can't have selfish desires, which will be talked about a lot. Zhou Ruocheng said.
"What do I say, do I need your guidance on how to do it?! It's just a ruling government, so what does anyone think is wrong? What's more, he did something wrong. The emperor said.
"The embankment of thousands of miles was destroyed in the anthill, this time it is not tight, but there is no shortage of guys who dig up old accounts, and when the time comes, they will be listed one by one, and the weight will be large, isn't it?" Zhou Ruocheng said.
“。。。。。” The emperor thought for a while, "Even if you're right, what's more?" ”
"Second, this excuse is still too reluctant, although Lin Yixuan's dereliction of duty is true, but it does not mean that he has not remedied, it is not too late to make amends, people have already remedied it, you are saying that this is not a bit too much, right, not to mention that this is not the kind of big thing that makes Shanghai's economy fluctuate greatly, the emperor is angry about these things, others will think that you are picky in your eggs, right?" Zhou Ruocheng said again.
"What did you just say that the embankment of a thousand miles was destroyed in an anthill! Say that again?! The emperor asked again.
"Your Majesty, you are a saint, but others are not, and those sluts are not exploiting the loopholes?!" Zhou Ruocheng said depressedly.
The emperor had nothing to say, and hugged his arms, "What about the third point?" ”
"This third point... Zhou Ruocheng immediately lowered his face: "Your Majesty! You're cheating me, Your Majesty. If you do this, don't forget that I have no official position now, Lin Yixuan is still the president of the Chamber of Commerce even if the ruling government is gone, and you also said that people are people from the four major families in Shanghai, and their deep background is comparable to that of a wild child like me, plus you also know what Lin Yixuan's attitude is towards me, I don't know how I will die when the time comes, how do you want me to help you do things? ”
"You're afraid that Lin Yixuan will not be good for you?" Zhou Ruocheng asked.
"Yang Suzhen will jump off the wall if she is forced to be in a hurry, not to mention this Lin Yixuan, Your Majesty, you are happy with this unlucky person, but I am." Zhou Ruocheng said depressedly.
"That's why I told me to be an official for you, but you didn't." The emperor also complained a little.
"Your Majesty, there are times when this thing is not implemented and it hangs like this, and it has some deterrent effect, if this is implemented, it will be an obvious thing, but it will be unfavorable to others, and I am just giving them such a false impression now." Zhou Ruocheng said.
"To put it bluntly, if you Zhou Ruocheng were forced to be in a hurry, he would jump off the wall, right?" The emperor said.
Who called you the emperor, this advantage will let you take advantage of it. Zhou Ruocheng smiled and didn't speak.
"Okay, drive your car." The emperor looked ahead.
"Your Majesty, you won't cure me?" Zhou Ruocheng asked.
"Let your dog live a few more days." The emperor put down his chair and lay down.
"Your Majesty. If you say that, I'll be angry too, Your Majesty. ”
