Chapter 959: I Want to Be an Emperor
When Li Dongyang, Liu Jian and others heard Zhu Houzhao's words, they all had the urge to go up and slap the bear child to death. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
I hid in the dormitory alone for a night, watching others frightened, and after coming out, I didn't have any remorse, and I still shouted like this, where is there a little bit of knowledge and etiquette?
Whether it is a noble family, or an ordinary people's family, children will be instilled with a kind of "filial piety first" thinking since childhood, Li Dongyang and others have strict family laws, as long as the child does something wrong, even if it is not intentional, it will be punished, the light is punished for standing, beating the palm, and the heavy is beating with a stick, so that what comes out under the stick is "filial piety", even if there are some thoughts in the heart, but at least on the surface are humble gentlemen who maintain gentleness and frugality.
But Zhu Houzhao, who is the prince in front of him, is good, not to mention etiquette, and even basic filial piety can't be done.
Zhu Youzhu was so angry that his whole body trembled and kept coughing, but Empress Zhang stepped forward to persuade him but to no avail. Empress Zhang said: "Emperor, still don't give your father a mistake?" β
"I'm not wrong, why admit my mistake? If you want to beat me, you will punish me! Zhu Houzhao still looks like he doesn't eat oil and salt and refuses to be soft.
None of the people present spoke.
Li Dongyang, Liu Jian and others all understood that it was really not appropriate to fan the flames at such a time, although they had long wanted to use sticks to teach this stubborn prince a lesson for the emperor.
I didn't want Xie Qian to suddenly come out and step forward to salute Emperor Hongzhi.
Li Dongyang and others were very puzzled, Xie Qian was preparing to add fuel to the fire and let the emperor punish the crown prince, and he touched his own head?
Who doesn't know that the emperor is just this biological son, who is pampered in the palm of his hand on weekdays, who goes up to be a bad guy at this time and lets the emperor punish the prince, the emperor is not only reluctant, but also angry.
But listening to what Xie Qian said, it was two different things from what others expected: "Your Majesty, it's a blessing." β
In a word, Zhu Youzhu looked at him sideways...... Okay, you thank you, I respect you on weekdays and call you sir, even if you are indeed very capable in the past two years, but you are also my courtier, the prince does not obey discipline, you actually ran up to say that you are lucky, and you are happy to see my jokes?
Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and others were all looking at Xie Qian, but Xie Qian was indifferent and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the prince is now grown up, has responsibility, and takes the initiative to take responsibility for others. This is what Renjun did, and in the future, the prince will definitely be able to assist His Majesty and take care of the government! β
Only then did others know that Xie Qian could find good words for everything, even if the prince was ridiculously wrong at this time, Xie Qian actually found one of his advantages, that is, "responsible".
Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and others couldn't help frowning.
Who is this!? No matter how you hear it, I think it's the prince who is angry with the emperor, saying "everything is coming at me" and deliberately angry with him Laozi, don't you Xie Lao'er pat on the horse's hooves?
Empress Zhang glanced at Xie Qian with gratitude, now that Emperor Hongzhi is punishing his son, everyone else is watching the excitement, but Xie Qian came up to say good things for the prince.
Empress Zhang, as the emperor's wife and the prince's mother, hopes to see a harmonious family at this time, and whoever comes out to speak for her husband and son is the hero in her eyes.
Empress Zhang said: "Yes, the emperor, the emperor has really grown up." β
Zhu Youzhu turned a deaf ear to Xie Qian and Empress Zhang's words, and shouted angrily: "Say, what did you do this night?" β
Zhu Houzhao pouted and said, "What did I do?" I slept under the bed, and I'm still sleepy...... Don't you just spank, it's best to beat me to death, I don't want to live for a long time! β
"Emperor, what nonsense are you talking about? Confess your father's mistake! Queen Zhang pulled her son in the past and wanted to pull the bear child in front of her husband, but Zhu Houzhao threw her away.
"Ahem, ahemβ"
Zhu Youji's cough intensified again, and the scene had reached a very embarrassing point, as if the emperor had reached the point where he had to punish the crown prince.
Li Dongyang looked at Xie Qian, squinted slightly, as if to say, Brother Yu Qiao, don't you have the ability to excuse the prince, why don't you speak?
Coughing for a long time, Zhu Youji's breath smoothed out a little, and he blushed and shouted angrily: "Come on, pull this rebel out and beat him, just treat me as if I never gave birth to this son!" β
At this time, even Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and others, who thought that the prince should be punished, hurriedly knelt down to intercede for Zhu Houzhao, but Zhu Houzhao himself did not have the slightest remorse, and still stood upright, as if he wanted to carry it to the end with his father.
Xie Qian persuaded: "Your Majesty, don't be angry with the dragon body, now that the prince has been found safely, you might as well let him think about his own mistakes, and then find a lecturer to urge him to study day and night in the coming day." β
Zhu Youzhu said angrily: "This rebel is stubborn, if he is not punished, he may not do anything wrong in the future...... Come on, pull it out and fight. β
"Your Majesty, you can't beat the emperor, he is your flesh and blood." Empress Zhang cried and knelt down in front of her husband, pulling her husband's shirt and begging bitterly.
"Queen, you are pregnant, don't get excited...... Come on, help the queen back to Kunning Palace! Zhu Youzhi instructed the palace maid who was waiting beside him.
The palace maid came to help Queen Zhang and wanted to help her person away, but Queen Zhang held on to her husband's shirt and refused to let go, sobbing incessantly. Zhu Youzhu was originally a person with a gentle personality who was easily swayed by other people's opinions, and when he saw his wife like this, he couldn't help but feel distressed.
Empress Zhang cried and shouted: "Your Majesty, don't beat the emperor......"
The breath was not good for a while, and the person actually fainted.
This frightened Zhu Youji, he hurriedly went over to help his wife up, and seeing that his wife showed no signs of waking up, he quickly picked up his wife with his own hands and put her flat on the bed.
Xie Qian muttered in his heart, "It's time to faint", the palace was already in chaos, Zhu Youzhu didn't care about punishing his son, and hurriedly called the imperial doctor to come to diagnose the disease.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
Zhu Houzhao was forced to kneel outside the Chufang Hall to "reflect" on the mistakes he had made, but he did not feel that he was wrong at all.
"Mr. Shen's martial arts book, I like it very much, is there anything wrong? Is it wrong for my father to confiscate the book and not allow me to come back to see it? I want to go out of the palace to find Mr. Shen and read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles, is it wrong? I got angry and hid, I didn't go to a dangerous place, and I didn't get in the way of others, is it wrong? My father wants to punish me, but my mother faints in a hurry, and all this is none of my business, is it wrong? β
Zhu Houzhao's self-consciousness is too strong, he only thinks about himself and does not consider others, plus his worldview is not formed, he thinks that as long as he does what he does is right.
In the Fang Palace, Zhu Youzhu stayed by the bedside, nervously looking at the imperial doctor's pulse, and when the imperial doctor said that the queen was fine, she only needed to rest more and would wake up naturally, he breathed a sigh of relief and came out of the inner room.
Except for Zhu Youji, everyone else present could see that the queen deliberately pretended to faint to relieve the siege for the crown prince.
"Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think...... How did I punish the crown prince? Although Zhu Youzhi was a little angry, for the sake of face, the matter of punishment still couldn't be revealed.
Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and the others were silent, and Xie Qian stood up again: "Your Majesty, although the crown prince is at fault, but the officials and ministers of the East Palace are not well taught, and they are also wrong, please punish Your Majesty!" β
Xie Qian is the crown prince's concubine, although this title is only a fictitious position, he is not responsible for the prince's education on weekdays, but it is always reasonable for students to make mistakes.
Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, Ma Wensheng and Liu Daxia saw that Xie Qian took the initiative to come out and confess their crimes, and it would not be so appropriate for them to watch the excitement from the sidelines, so they all bowed and pleaded guilty.
Zhu Youzhi looked sad and said: "It's the fault of not raising my godfather, it's my spoiling that makes the prince so stubborn, why are you Aiqing wrong?" β
The five ministers present were all thinking, thanks to you, the emperor's father, and self-knowledge, isn't it thanks to you that the prince has become so virtuous now?
But as courtiers, they must not say this kind of rebellion, in fact, they can understand Zhu Youji's situation, thinking that Zhu Youzhu was cautious in front of Emperor Chenghua back then, they as lecturers in the East Palace saw it in their eyes and felt pain in their hearts, after all, there was the existence of Wan Guifei on their heads, which made Zhu Youzhu and the people around him like thorns in their backs, but now Zhu Youzhu only has such a son, and it is reasonable to spoil some of them.
Li Dongyang could understand Zhu Youzhang's suffering, and said in his heart that if God could give me another son, even if he was more stubborn, I would let him go. Comparing his heart to his heart, Li Dongyang, who has always been iron-faced and selfless but has lost his beloved son, feels the most profound.
Xie Qian said: "Your Majesty, the prince will never forget Shen Xi'er, why don't you transfer him back to the capital and discipline the prince more." β
"So ......"
Zhu Youji's eyes lit up.
Now it seems that no one can teach this bear child, except for Shen Xi, Emperor Hongzhi was about to agree, but Li Dongyang interrupted his golden mouth and jade words: "Your Majesty, you must not, Shen Xi is in the southeast to promote military affairs, and now the orthodox army is leading the army to level the bandits, and changing the commander before the battle may cause trouble, why not select young and promising people in the Han Garden, enter the East Palace to give lectures, and solve doubts for the prince!" β
Zhu Youzhu couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, he hadn't thought about this problem before, but in addition to Shen Xi, the youngest Hanlin in the Ming Dynasty was also twenty-five years old, and there would be a generation gap if the age difference was three years, a difference of more than ten years, in this era of early birth and early childbearing, almost a generation behind, where can I gain the trust and dependence of the prince?
Xie Qian saw the helplessness on Zhu Youji's face, and said: "Your Majesty, you might as well give an order to go to Guangdong, if Shenxi Xiao'er succeeds in leveling the bandits, let him leave to return to Beijing to report on his work......"
Li Dongyang hurriedly said: "Xie Shangshu's words are wrong, can't others strictly discipline the prince except Shen Xi?" He also asked His Majesty to issue a decree to allow the speakers of the East Palace to punish the prince and standardize the daily etiquette of the prince. Strict teachers make high apprentices, please think twice! β
In this matter, Li Dongyang is obviously on the same page as Xie Qian, Xie Qian is now the crown prince and a scholar of Dongge University, but at the same time, he also holds the title of Shangshu of the Ministry of War, Li Dongyang has never called Xie Qian "Xie Shangshu" in front of people in his life, which shows that he is a little annoyed and angry.
You Xie Qian should think of some reasonable way to regulate the behavior of the prince, instead of nepotism and counting on a descendant who is far away in Guangdong, I can't get used to your favoritism, so I won't respect you in words.
Just when the palace was arguing about whether to transfer Shen Xi back to Beijing or let the speakers of the East Palace inflict corporal punishment on the prince, Zhu Houzhao was also thinking about a new plan outside.
"My father treats me badly, I guess I am not my own, I used to ask them where I came from, and they were hesitant, maybe he and his mother picked it up from outside. No, I must find a chance to sneak out of the palace and find Mr. Shen, only he can teach me how to fight with my father......"
"I must be the emperor in the future, and if I play again, no one will dare to care about me!" (To be continued.) )
