Chapter 343: Great Wisdom and Bravery
Zhu Hou glanced at his father, but still didn't mean to stop, and continued: "My father always said that he wanted to understand the suffering of the people, and he dared to ask his father, do you really know the suffering of the people?" β
"This ...... All right...... I ......"
Zhu Houzhao: "Father doesn't know!" β
Emperor Hongzhi really underestimated Zhu Houzhao's combat effectiveness.
This is a person who would rather carry countless infamy and fight with ministers for a lifetime in history.
It belongs to the stubborn stone that will not repent if it is killed.
At this time, Zhu Houzhao continued: "Why doesn't my father know? β
"......" Emperor Hongzhi was a little annoyed.
But Zhu Houzhao continued after a long time: "Because my father can't do laundry." β
ββ¦β¦β
"I'm afraid my father hasn't even lit a fire, right?"
Emperor Hongzhi couldn't refute it, because ...... He really won't.
"My father doesn't know how to peel potatoes!"
"This is not what an emperor should do." Emperor Hongzhi couldn't help but retort.
"That's not right." Zhu Houzhao shook his head and said categorically: "If the emperor doesn't really experience this, then the people's suffering is actually just empty talk, and the love for the people that my father and emperor talk about every day is like a son, isn't it a joke?" In the past, the father liked to use the way of the saint to teach his sons. β
"But the benevolent government in the way of the sage, the father recites it every day, repeats it, recites it day and night, and dares to ask the father, what is benevolence?"
Emperor Hongzhi couldn't imagine that this son would teach his father a lesson.
His self-esteem is somewhat unacceptable.
Zhu Houzhao is talking eloquently, at this moment, he is very much like Wang Shouren, and seems to have regarded Emperor Hongzhi as his student: "There is no empathy, self-righteousness, thinking that he knows the suffering of the people, but such a person is in a high position, and a word determines the life and death of thousands of people, father, isn't it ridiculous?" My father didn't know how to make a fire, he couldn't do laundry, he didn't know where this rice came from, but he decided to persuade farmers and teach the state capital of the world to help the victims, which ...... Isn't it ridiculous? β
"My father can't ride a horse, he can't shoot arrows, and he doesn't even know anything about the military households of the Ming Dynasty, and he actually wants to decide the war and decide how to train the soldiers and horses in the world, is this ridiculous?"
"Father, it is easy to know the suffering of the people. Tell me, who wouldn't? The father and emperor used to teach his sons, of course, it was very light. However, it is very difficult to truly experience the suffering of the people, and it is as difficult as climbing to the sky, and no one who is not wise and brave can do it. β
Emperor Hongji's face turned red.
This guy ...... It is equivalent to pointing at the monk and scolding the bald donkey, which is really the opposite.
But Zhu Houzhao is very serious, he is too lazy to care what Emperor Hongzhi thinks, and now it is difficult for his father to refute it, this feeling is very good, and it has prompted his courage, and some things are really unpleasant!
So Zhu Houzhao said: "What is the suffering of the people? Before the time comes, you have to get up, you have to roll up the shop, you have to peel the potatoes...... Father, you see......"
Speaking of this, Zhu Houzhao stretched out his hand, revealing the back of his hand, and several wounds on the back of his hand were dazzling.
Although the wound has healed, it is still shocking, Emperor Hongzhi was stunned, but he heard Zhu Houzhao say: "This side was cut when peeling, does it hurt to look at?" It's really painful. But it hurts and you have to cut it, because ...... I want to live. What everyone can eat now is nothing more than mashed potatoes, Erchen is lucky, after all, this is in Xishan, and life is better than ordinary people after all. β
"Father should also think that mashed potatoes are actually very delicious! But if you starve your father for a day, or let your father eat a bowl of yellow rice porridge, your father will think it is delicious. Erchen likes to eat mashed potatoes, because Erchen is too tired, too hungry, full of food, making tea is not a dream, you have to do farm work, from morning to night, no matter the wind and rain, cold winter and heat, you can't stop, stop to be hungry! And the peasants did not rely on a book of persuasion from the imperial court to cultivate, so they were full of spirit and willing to cultivate. β
"For them, the imperial court is too far away, as long as the government does not come to find trouble for them, then the imperial court is a good court, Your Majesty is a good emperor, do you know that those homeless people talked about farming in the countryside in the past, what were they most worried about?"
"What?" Although Emperor Hongzhi was a little annoyed, he was still willing to listen to Zhu Houzhao's story.
Seeing that Zhu Houzhao was there, telling the story, Emperor Hongzhi actually had some illusions, as if he was playing against a local official who had quite a lot of political achievements in a place.
Of course, Zhu Houzhao is more dead, and what he said is more sharp!
Zhu Houzhao said: "What the people are most afraid of is the imperial court's letter of persuasion to farmers......"
Emperor Hongzhi was very surprised, frowned and said, "Persuading the farmer? β
Zhu Houzhao said: "Looking at the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, how many people actually know how to farm? But Your Majesty, you have to care about how the peasants farm, as soon as Your Majesty cares, a group of ministers who come to stretch out their hands and eat to open their mouths will naturally have to quote scriptures and classics to persuade the peasants to write such beautiful articles! But such a group of guys who have only eaten white rice are ashamed to teach the peasants how to plow the land, and then this book of persuasion, the father is full of blood and excitement, and he is full of interest and issued it......"
"Father, think about it, you are the emperor, the lord of the world, you don't know how to farm, the ministers don't know how to farm, you only know how to eat, your will, do the governors around dare to slack? Naturally, they don't dare to slack off, but in fact, how many officials in the state capitals know how to plow the land? They didn't know, they only knew that His Majesty was very concerned about this matter, and only knew that this book of advice to farmers was a holy will, so they had to promote this book of advice to farmers for the sake of their intentions, and the result was that the servants went to the countryside everywhere, and when the servants arrived, they wanted to eat and drink, they had to be served, and they had to be sent by them...... But we still have to deal with these official factions. β
When the sons heard this, they thought in their hearts, after reading the book of persuasion, the emperor must have been very moved, and he thought that he had done a great thing for the people of the world. But the father was moved, and the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were also very pleased, thinking that they had finally done something for the people, and they would be recorded in history in the future, and there was also a sentence of persuasion to Nongsang! But the only thought of Erchen is that you don't understand anything, and you still hold a book of Analects every day to say what is benevolent and governmental, what is anxious about the people's anxieties, what the people are suffering, and tossing around in the temple all day long, this is simply a sanctimonious manner, all like people, but they don't do personnel, they use the people's fat and people's ointment, and raise a group of such wastes. β
ββ¦β¦β
Hearing this, Fang Jifan's eyelids jumped, and he keenly felt that there were faint signs of a bloody disaster on Zhu Houzhao's face.
Fang Jifan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, don't get me wrong, the prince is scolding the minister, is a hundred officials, not Your Majesty, Your Majesty is still very holy, this, the whole world, everyone knows, Your Majesty is magnanimous, the most holy thing is to be able to be good as a stream, this, the minister is the most admired, I Ming since Your Majesty ascended the throne, Your Majesty has never been a minister, this has been praised by the United States, this point, please continue to maintain...... Ah......h
Fang Jifan said as he cautiously observed Emperor Hongzhi's complexion.
The prince is really open-mouthed, this kind of thing, you can say it tactfully, this is called hard work, you especially scolded the Manchu Dynasty monarchs and ministers for not being a thing, isn't this looking for death?
Today...... Outside the noon gate, could there be two heroes who were dragged to shoot the target, ah, no, spanked?
Emperor Hongzhi anxiously rubbed the case, twisted his deep brows and said, "These, is your experience?" β
Zhu Houzhao nodded: "This is Erchen's experience." β
Emperor Hongzhi didn't have the slightest expression on his face, especially Zhu Houzhao's sentence of not doing anything, which made his face even more pale.
He was silent again, and after half a sound, he stared straight at Zhu Houzhao before he said, "This is also Fang Jifan, who taught you with Wang Shouren, right?" β
Zhu Houzhao said: "It has nothing to do with them, these words, before the ministers entered the palace, they were also thinking, should they say it, if they don't say it, the father will continue to be so wrong, thinking that he is a saint, but in fact he is no different from the tyrant and the emperor in the past." So Erchen is thinking, Erchen has to say. β
"You just came up with it alone?" Emperor Hongzhi sneered: "Until now, you still want to deceive me?" β
As he spoke, he slapped the case.
Zhu Houzhao was a little weak-hearted.
He was an afterthought, and when he was just talking, he was cool for a while, and afterwards he felt that it might be worse, so he said shamefully: "Actually...... In fact, Liu Jin ...... Some were also taught. β
"Liu Jin?"
Emperor Hongzhi looked at Zhu Houzhao angrily.
Zhu Houzhao was silent.
At this time, Emperor Hongzhi's eyes fell on Fang Jifan's body, and he said sharply: "Fang Jifan, you come on." β
"What?" Fang Jifan was stunned for a moment.
Emperor Hongzhi looked at Fang Jifan coldly: "His Royal Highness the Prince, there are many lies, and you want to rely on Liu Jin, don't you mess with the prince every day?" I have come to ask you who taught him. β
Under the angry eyes of Emperor Hongzhi, Fang Jifan suddenly looked like a defeated rooster, and said timidly: "The minister seems to have taught a little." β
"Where's Wang Shouren?"
"Wang Shouren didn't!" Fang Jifan was righteous, and immediately swore and said: "Wang Shouren is just a protΓ©gΓ© of the minister, what knowledge can he have." β
"Didn't you keep saying that the new learning was realized by Wang Bianxiu, but now you say that he doesn't understand anything?"
"It's... That's right, Xinxue is indeed the bold and blind of the minister, and the minister has the sin of ten thousand deaths, and he will not dare to be presumptuous in the future..."
"When you are guilty, Xinxue is yours, and when you are not guilty, it is your protΓ©gΓ© Wang Shouren, you have a brain disease, I really can't understand it." Emperor Hongzhi said sharply.
"This ......" Fang Jifan pondered carefully and said very honestly: "Actually...... The minister himself couldn't understand it...... Your Majesty forgives the sin, the prince is indeed confused. β
