Chapter 176: It's Our Fault~

To tell the truth, if there is a choice, Xu Hongji is really unwilling to come out and have a head-on conflict with Zhu Changluo, without him, this young prince is simply too unreasonable, relying on his royal identity, he doesn't save him any face, and his words are even more bitter and mean to the extreme, and his proud identity as the Duke of Wei can't play any role when he comes here!

But there is no way, even if he is unwilling, Xu Hongji must stand up, otherwise, he offended Zhou Shixuan in exchange for the opportunity, wouldn't it be a waste?

"Hmph, the Duke of Wei has repeatedly accused this king for no reason today, and this king will definitely report this matter to the court and ask the emperor to make the decision for this king!"

Zhu Changluo didn't eat him at all, and said coldly. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Suddenly Xu Hongji was half angry, it's not good to know that he is the one who takes advantage? When will even a person who has made such a big mistake be able to confidently say that he wants to go to the court?!

However, at this moment, Zhu Changluo no longer paid attention to him, but turned to look at Cheng Gongchen and said lightly.

"Cheng Fu Yin, this king asks you, since Fengqing Qianzhuang is under your rule, have you ever been to inspect? When the shopkeeper was escorted to Yingtianfu by the king's guards, did you see him and ask him? ”

Zhu Changluo's sudden awe-inspiring momentum made Cheng Gongchen's brows furrow, but he still replied immediately.

"This is natural, the duty of the lower officials, naturally it is to inspect Fengqing Qianzhuang, and the shopkeeper has naturally seen it, but according to Ying Tianfu's verification, there is no illegal thing in Fengqing Qianzhuang, and the shopkeeper is also an honest person, I don't know what crime they committed, which caused His Highness to be so angry, and directly used the guards to lock it?"

Of course, Cheng Gongchen knew that there might be a trap hidden in Zhu Changluo's question, but he had no choice, a big money village like Fengqing was registered in Yingtianfu, after all, although the business tax of Daming was low, it was not nothing, and it was his duty to inspect the merchants, so even if he knew that Zhu Changluo had bad intentions, Cheng Gongchen still had to admit it.

"Well, since you have been to that Fengqing Qianzhuang, you should know that he has five rooms and seven frames, and there are beast faces painted on the door, and the roof is tiled by beasts, and the beams are yellow, and you, as Ying Tianfu Yin, tell this king what kind of regulations are available for talents? A businessman in charge of the shopkeeper, wearing a silk coat, transgressed his duty, and this king, as a descendant of Taizu, did this law to arrest the transgressors, is there anything wrong? ”

Zhu Changluo snorted coldly, but his tone became more and more unkind.

A drop of cold sweat flowed down Cheng Gongchen's face, but he didn't know how to answer for a while.

Merchants open their doors to welcome customers, naturally to decorate their own homes, especially a big money village like Fengqing, which is gorgeous and brilliant, so that people who go in can directly feel the wealth of Fengqing.

If it is placed in the future generations, of course, this is nothing, at most it will be scolded to show off its wealth, but it will not work now!

As Ying Tianfu Yin, Cheng Gongchen naturally knows that in the third year of Hongwu, Emperor Taizu once issued an edict, clearly stipulating the color of the houses of the common people, and the common people to build houses, stopping three rooms and five frames, and not using dougong decorations, and the beast face on the door, the roof tile beast, is the regulation used in the houses of officials above the seventh grade, in all fairness, Fengqing's regulation is indeed a big transgression!

And at the beginning, Taizu also clearly stipulated that civilians were not allowed to use Ayaluo, not to mention that it was the family of merchants at the end of the Four Peoples, and they couldn't even wear silk cloth, let alone Ayaluo?

But the problem lies in this, this is not simply Fengqing Qianzhuang doing this, in fact, the clothing regulations set by Emperor Taizu have long been in a state of semi-abandonment, and the people have become arrogant, things like Fengqing have long been commonplace, and the imperial court has repeatedly banned it, so it can only be resigned, and Cheng Gongchen can't be blamed for not thinking of this before.

However, he didn't expect it, it doesn't mean that Zhu Changluo didn't think of it.

In fact, along the way, the most obvious thing Zhu Changluo felt was that the further south he went, the more luxurious and extravagant, the common people dressed gorgeously, and the regulations were arrogant, especially the merchants, who simply completely left behind the clothing regulations stipulated by the imperial court, and built mansions and gardens, one by one more exaggerated.

Originally, when Zhu Changluo was in the capital, he didn't feel deeply about this, after all, it was at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and no one dared to do so much, but when he saw Fengqing, he knew what it meant to be bold, you know, Liang Dong Tuhuang, this is a regulation that is only allowed to be used by senior officials above the third grade, but now it has appeared in a small money bank, such a good handle is sent to his hands, Zhu Changluo feels that if he doesn't tie him, he will be sorry for himself!

His face sank, Zhu Changluo took a step forward and spoke.

"If Emperor Taizu's will is too long, then it is better for this king to tell you the will of His Majesty today! In the fourth year of Wanli, the emperor decreed to rebuild the Ming Dynasty, which specialized in housing regulations such as house utensils, and now His Majesty is still in power, and this will has been left behind? Is it wrong for this king, as a royal descendant, to carry out His Majesty's will? ”

Although Zhu Changluo is not interested in his father, this does not prevent him from pulling the banner and making a tiger skin.

In fact, as a standard of clear hierarchy, the color of houses and clothes has always been a matter that the emperors of all dynasties have attached great importance to, not only Wanli, starting from Emperor Yingzong, the emperors of all dynasties have issued special decrees, affirming that the people are not allowed to trespass without permission.

Although with the development of the commodity economy, these wills do not play a big role, but if Zhu Changluo grasps this point, no one can find fault!

Could it be that I am carrying out the emperor's will, and am I still wrong?

Cheng Gongchen broke out in a cold sweat, but he couldn't say a word, so he could only keep looking at Xu Hongji......

But Xu Hongji still has the heart to manage Cheng Gongchen now, he has only one thought in his heart, it's over!

From the time Zhu Changluo came up with this statement, he knew that the face he was beaten today was in vain! Who would have thought that Zhu Changluo would take this kind of thing that everyone is accustomed to doing it? And I can't refute it yet!

Could it be that he can say that the people are doing this, and everyone is not satisfied with the regulations of Taizu back then?

If he dared to say that, the first person to be arrested must be himself, dare to say that Emperor Taizu was at fault? I'm tired of it!

You must know that even the emperor does not dare to blatantly violate the ancestral system, he Xu Hongji is the oldest!

A hint of pride flashed between Zhu Changluo's eyebrows, as a person from the next generation, he was very clear about what it meant to catch a typical example, and he didn't blame the public? That's right, but everyone makes mistakes, so what if I punish you?

He is a dignified prince, not to mention that this Fengqing itself is not clean, even if it is clean, it is a matter of minutes to find a hundred and eighty charges for him casually, and if he wants to make a fuss with this matter, he can only say that these people are still too tender!

The scene was slightly stagnant, and after a while, Zhou Shixuan sighed and stepped forward to speak.

"Your Highness is right, it is the old man's dereliction of duty that has made the people arrogant, please forgive your highness, and the old man will ask your majesty for the guilt in a few days......"

Zhou Shixuan's words are the final word, and today's matter has completely come to an end, although he is only a coordinated garrison in Nanjing, but in fact, he has always been responsible for the government affairs of Ying Tianfu, which is also the reason why Chen Liangbi has been next to him as a clay statue today, the civil affairs aspect is the territory of civil officials, even if he is a Nanjing garrison, it is not good to stretch out too much.

And Zhou Shixuan, as the person with the highest official position in Yingtianfu, naturally no one dared to question what he said.

In other words, what happened today, Zhou Shixuan has fully recognized the legitimacy of what Zhu Changluo did, after all, the names of the previous emperors have been pressed, who would dare to refute it?

"In that case, this king will take his leave!"

Zhu Changluo stretched his waist, arched his hand, and returned to his lazy appearance...... (To be continued.) )
