Chapter 11: A False Alarm and Forcible Recruitment

At this moment, almost all the old men were defeated by Zhu Houzhao's innocent eyes, and they were all deeply examining whether they were too obscene, so they inflicted those unique filthiness belonging to adults on this child who was not yet an adult. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, at the same time, almost all people also realized that something was wrong, and in the past, this matter was that Brother Gongzi robbed the people's daughters, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince used his age and the suffering of Miss Yuming Xiao to put himself on the moral high ground. Therefore, how to refute it is to rack the brains of these old Confucians who have studied the words of the sages for decades.

But there are still ruthless people, just when the ministers were thinking hard, one of them stood up and smiled: "Minister Yang Tinghe also wants to join the prince, the minister heard that the prince left a couplet in a place like Wenxiang Pavilion, and wrote 'Visitors from all over the world smell the fragrance and get off the horse, and the heroes of the festival smear and go to bed', it is really not the identity and age of His Royal Highness should be written!" ”

Zhu Houzhao's smile suddenly froze, he miscalculated, these two sentences said all the things in the party, especially the latter sentence to the point, which vividly depicts the shape of the anxious color, how can a non-party veteran write it.

"Hehehehe." Zhu Houzhao laughed dryly, but his mind was spinning rapidly, these people seem to have impure intentions, and they don't seem to be impeached for attacking themselves, they are a minor, as for it, but soon he replied: "Lord Yang didn't know, at that time, the shopkeeper woman of Wenxiang Pavilion was crying very miserably, and repeatedly mentioned that it was not easy to cultivate a young man, and I had to give her a couplet for a moment of pity, as for the source of the couplet, I saw it in the book, and there happened to be the word Wenxiang, I think it is very appropriate to this Wenxiang Pavilion." , so I used it indiscriminately, and I never thought about it, but I caused these things. ”

Zhu Houzhao's words were very humble at this time, calling himself me, and showing some compassion in addition to some pity, thinking that his answer was just right. After he had said this, he began to observe the ministers quietly, trying to guess what their purpose was.

Sure enough, when the ministers heard him sophistry, they were surprised not by anger but by such calm, which was obviously unreasonable.

Yang Tinghe pressed step by step, and asked again: "I don't know which book Your Highness saw this sentence in, the minister can be regarded as having read a lot of books, but at this time he is a little lonely." ”

This is an extremely insidious question. In the history of the Ming Dynasty, Yang Tinghe was a fierce man, at the age of twelve, at the age of nineteen, he entered the Hanlin Academy, such a resume did not know that he threw off the well-known Fan into hundreds of streets, such a person is talented and intelligent, profound and well-read, at this time, the successive difficulties almost forced Zhu Houzhao to a dead end.

A little unbearable, Zhu Houzhao gritted his teeth and thought about it, since this is the case, then it is better to tell the truth, coughed twice and cleared his throat and said: "Mr. Yang, I read these two sentences in a book called Yuewei Caotang Notes, and most of the books are some strange wild anecdotes, so I wrote them down." ”

"Oh? Please also ask Your Highness for advice. Yang Tinghe didn't say that he had seen it, but he had never heard of it, so he directly thought that Zhu Houzhao was talking nonsense.

Nima, what if you don't hit someone in the face? Is this the rhythm that is going to be forced into a corner? Zhu Houzhao was angry, if you don't believe me, you just don't believe in my cheap dad, if you don't believe in my cheap dad, you don't believe in the government, and if you don't believe in the government, you are still a hammer official.

"Here's what it is." The corners of Zhu Houzhao's mouth crossed a hint of banter, and he raised his voice: "It is said that there are two officials in a certain dynasty who are in high positions, one of them is honest and the other is greedy, and the greedy man speaks to the honest one, you and I join hands to worry about the court, what is it?" The incorruptible said, get out. The greedy want to give gold and silver, but they do not accept it. One day, the greedy person visited the Wenxiang Building at night and wanted to charter the venue. happened to meet the incorruptible, so a beautiful lady tempted her. The incorruptible fruit enters the Wenxiang Building and lingers. The next day, the greedy caught the incorruptible in bed and said, at the beginning, he was a disciple of a saint, but so, so he gave a joint 'smell the incense and get off the horse, smear and go to bed'. The incorruptible went away in shame. ”

Zhu Houzhao finished the whole story in one breath, and his words were extremely smooth, not like he was making up nonsense at all. This story was made up by Zhu Houzhao, simple and easy to understand, the six Jiuqing civil and military officials looked at each other after listening to it, and even Yang Tinghe showed a trace of surprise, obviously he didn't expect that there was really a book, and this couplet really had a source. Even a few officials showed a hint of shame on their faces, and it is unknown whether they were seated in the right seats.

Zhu Houzhao had already laughed like a little fox in his heart, and muttered in his mouth, Don't blame me for Ji Da Cigarette Bag, it can be regarded as giving you a second name first.

Emperor Hongzhi, who was sitting on the dragon chair, looked at Zhu Houzhao with a smile on his face at this time, and stopped the proud Zhu Houzhao with a smile and said, "The emperor should not be naughty. What do you think of the prince? ”

"Your Highness is well-read and very intelligent, which is really my blessing!" Yang Tinghe reacted first and praised loudly. The subordinates responded immediately, and all kinds of beautiful words were endless.

Emperor Hongzhi glanced at Zhu Houzhao lovingly, and said with a smile: "The prince is young, and he will have to be taught by the ministers in the future." Since everyone thinks that the prince can, then leave this matter to the prince! ”

"The crown prince will definitely not live up to His Majesty's expectations, and the ministers congratulate Your Majesty." The three princes and nine kings all laughed as if they had picked up money, and the main hall of the Qianqing Palace was immediately like a sea of flowers, but they were all old chrysanthemums.

Zhu Houzhao looked at the scene of the monarchs and ministers having fun in front of him with a blinded face, and he still couldn't convince himself whether he was tricked or tricked, but seeing that this group of people was so happy, he probably was tricked himself.

Are the monarchs and ministers of the Ming Dynasty so idle? After putting up such a big battle for a while, it was actually to give a quiz to himself, the prince, and it seemed that he had also got good results.

Joke! This prince has received nine years of compulsory education, has done five years of college entrance examination and three years of simulation, and has no less than a thousand large and small exams, and is definitely the elite of exam-oriented education, and will he be afraid of the test of your group of old antiques?

In fact, Zhu Houzhao just wants to cover his face now, he is embarrassed and embarrassed, he just makes a game, he actually admits it, serious is losing, what a shame! But after forcibly comforting himself, Zhu Houzhao still decided to wait happily for the results of this test, but the feudal ruling class recognized us.

Before Zhu Houzhao was depressed and wanted to vomit blood, the old man Hongzhi finally had a voice. Gonggong Xiao, the dead eunuch, didn't know when he returned to the emperor's side, and held out a roll of bright yellow silk silk in Zhu Houzhao's surprised eyes.

Zhu Houzhao's eyes were straight, is that the emperor's holy decree, is it the emperor's holy decree? I'll take it, this is going to be sent, if this thing is passed on to his descendants, it can be used as an heirloom, and a small volume in the future will sell for millions. At this moment, Zhu Houzhao had a nervous attack on the small peasant, completely forgetting the fact that he was the spokesman of the landlord class.

"Fengtian carried the emperor, and the edict said: The prince is virtuous and intelligent, gentle and respectful, and has the majesty of the royal family. Today, the little prince of the Northern Yuan Dynasty came to pay tribute, and the special prince Zhu Houzhao accepted the audience with the majesty of the prince of the Ming Dynasty, and gave the prince the right to be arbitrary. ”

I see, Zhu Houzhao was a little crying and laughing after he understood, this is not at ease with himself, isn't it easy for us to deal with a barbarian who is fighting from the north. looked at his delicate little hands like a woman, Zhu Houzhao sighed, and after having no hair on his mouth, he decided to forgive this group of red and purple ministers who underestimated him.

After receiving the holy decree, Emperor Hongzhi instructed Zhu Houzhao: "Emperor, this matter is a matter of national affairs, take away your naughty nature, and don't neglect it." ”

Zhu Houzhao saw that he was serious, so he had to agree: "Yes, son, remember!" The retainers retired. ”

Zhu Houzhao didn't want to stay longer in this bird place for a quarter of an hour, a group of old men with different faces looked at you with a smile and an extremely strange look, anyone would not be able to stand it, and in the seriousness of Zhu Houzhao, the eyes of these old men were so obscene, especially that Yang Tinghe, looking at himself as if he was looking at a stunning beauty, his saliva was about to flow down, and he was not Xiao Xiao girl, as for it?

After seeing the prince leave, Yang Tinghe suddenly came out of the crowd, bowed to the ground and said, "Your Majesty, the ministers have something to ask for." ”

"Oh? What does Yang Aiqing have to say? "Hongzhi is interested, what kind of person is this Yang Tinghe, although the official position is not very reluctantly able to enter the court, but he has always been upright, and there has never been such a situation of soft words.

"The minister has a son, who is stupid, and today I see the prince so heroic, I hope that Your Majesty can allow the son of the minister to serve the prince and study!"

As soon as these words came out, the court was in an uproar, and even Li Dongyang, a cabinet counselor who was very optimistic about Yang Tinghe on weekdays, looked at him in surprise.

What an honor it is to serve the prince and study, and the feelings cultivated since childhood are destined to become a close minister of the prince in the future, and destined to become an important minister of the next dynasty, which is simply speculative.

Stones were thrown in the pit, stirring up public outrage. For a while, all the ministers began to denounce Yang Tinghe, and all kinds of extremely foul language smashed at Yang Tinghe.

"Your Majesty, Yang Tinghe's motives for speculation are not pure!"

"Your Majesty, Yang Tinghe's son can write at the age of three and poetry at the age of five, and he is a famous prodigy in Beijing, he is a bully!"

Emperor Hongzhi's face sank like water when he heard this, and he scolded: "Yang Tinghe, how do you explain?" ”

Yang Tinghe kowtowed: "Weichen is guilty, let Your Majesty punish him!" ”

"Good!" Emperor Hongzhi took the case and said coldly, "I see that your four-grade Taichang Temple Shaoqing has done his job, so let's get rid of it!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" As soon as Yang Ting and the official hat took off and kowtowed, they were about to leave.

Emperor Hongzhi suddenly waved his hand, and Gonggong Xiao immediately understood, and hurriedly said: "Yang Tinghe and stay." ”

Yang Tinghe immediately turned back and waited for the emperor's will.

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Yang Tinghe's appearance, suddenly laughed, and said: "Edict, Yang Tinghe bullied the monarch and dismissed him from the post of Shaoqing of Taichang Temple." But I pity you for being full of talent, and I will allow you to go to Zhan Shifu to serve and be a Zuo Chunfang Zuo Zhongyun. ”

Yang Tinghe was overjoyed, bowed to the ground and shouted: "Minister's will!" ”

Emperor Hongzhi said lightly: "Teach the prince to read well, if the prince makes another mistake, I will punish you heavily!" ”

The ministers in the palace were stunned, watching Yang Tinghe and Yang Chang leave, this is probably a forced apprenticeship, right? The self-demotion is just to be the prince's master, and there is no one in the government and the opposition!
