682, fog and clouds hide the sun (2)
When Xia Yunyi arrived at Chongzhen's apartment, he happened to see Zhu Yousong walking out dejectedly.
Zhu Yousong was fat and struggling to walk, supported by two little eunuchs, seeing Xia Yunyi, he pouted and said strangely: "Xia Qing, are you here to see me, or are you here to see the emperor?" ”
"Naturally, I saw the emperor."
Xia Yunyi's expression was cold, obviously dealing with him.
"It's a pity, the emperor is the same as me, he is not the emperor anymore, four days, only four days, Yu Guozhen is the emperor of the new dynasty, when the time comes, will you accompany the emperor or worship the new emperor?"
"King Fu is joking, I am Mingchen, and I will never be another person for the rest of my life."
"Ha, ha!"
Zhu Yousong laughed dryly, then got into the car, and under the coachman's hard pedaling, he gradually disappeared into the crowd.
Just like any passerby.
"Boss, go in." Seeing his father looking at the car in a daze, Xia Wanchun urged, he didn't have any interest in this Fu King, who only knew how to exert his abilities on women.
"I guess King Fu will never appear again, I heard...... Yu Jimin wanted to move him to Dayuan for resettlement. ”
"Big?"
"Well, King Fu is different from Your Majesty, Your Majesty has seen through it, but King Fu may not see through it. Yu Jimin didn't want to be infamous like Zhao Guangyi, so he could only keep him away from those moths. ”
Speaking of this, Xia Yunyi patted his son on the shoulder: "If Your Majesty does not arrive, the news of Yu Jimin's placement of King Fu will inevitably provoke a backlash from those moths, and maybe those moths will play a trick to coerce King Fu to make another incident." But His Majesty arrived in Jinling. The first choice of those moths is still Your Majesty, after all, if the Ming Dynasty is restored, the most justifiable one is Your Majesty. ”
"In this way, will your majesty not ...... Isn't it dangerous? ”
"Princess Kunxing heard that she has become a monk." Xia Yunyi sighed softly: "I heard that I worship under the Changmen of Guiquanzi Dao, and I am a sister with Song Siyi. ”
But the newspaper said that she also came to Jinling with His Majesty...... Ah, unexpectedly, unexpectedly...... Yu Jimin is so bold! ”
"Yu Jimin is not very bold. There would be no today, if he wasn't greedy and lustful, he wouldn't have the nickname of the first merry man on the banks of the Qinhuai River...... However, compared to King Fu, Yu Jimin is extremely self-disciplined, except for those who really like him, he is always abusive. ”
Xia Wanchun was a little stunned. He remembered the appearance of Princess Kunxing, but he didn't expect it. For his relationship with Yu Guozhen. Kunxing turned out to be a "monk".
That being the case, it is no wonder that Yu Guozhen and Chongzhen trust each other.
Xia Wanchun still doesn't know enough about Yu Guozhen after all, even if there is no Kunxing, Yu Guozhen will trust Chongzhen, or rather, he will trust his "brainwashing" of Chongzhen for ten years.
Seeing the father and son of the Xia family, Chongzhen was very happy. summoned Shen Youlong and others who came with him, and asked people to prepare a banquet. must leave the Xia family father and son to eat. After the cold hustle and bustle was over, he looked at Xia Wanchun and said, "Mr. Xiao Xia......"
The minister was terrified. Your Majesty can call the ministers by their names. ”
Chongzhen said with a smile: "There are no monarchs and ministers now, even if Yu Jimin ascends the throne and becomes the emperor, there are no monarchs and ministers." ”
This sentence contains deep meaning, Xia Yunyi was surprised, seeing that everyone was surprised, Chongzhen stroked his beard: "Yu Jimin thinks that there was no emperor before Qin Zheng, and there was no king before Xia Qi, although Yao Shun was called the king of the ages, he was not called the king. Therefore, now he inherits the emperor's name and inherits it, but it is only a name......"
"What do you mean by that?" Xia Yunyi said in shock.
Chongzhen didn't say any more, in fact, Chongzhen himself didn't quite understand Yu Guozhen's plan. Yu Guozhen's implication is that although his descendants inherit the title of emperor, they may not always have the power of the current emperor - which makes Chongzhen feel incredible.
If the emperor has no power, isn't he a puppet? Just like him now, Yu Guozhen still respectfully calls him His Majesty when he sees him, but he has no power at all, and even his family's livelihood has to be earned with his own hands.
Thinking of this, he looked left and right and said, "Wanchun, you are still young now, I remember that you are twenty-two, right?" What are the plans, now that the country is employing people, it is Wu'er, and I have also entered the Tamna Research Institute as a disciple, so as to contribute to the future of China, what about you? ”
This time Chongzhen himself came to Jinling, but his eldest son Cihong did not come, Xia Wanchun was a little strange in his heart, but now he heard Chongzhen say this, and then he understood: "The prince entered the Tamluo Research Institute?" ”
"Yes, this is still the favor I entrusted to Yu Jimin, otherwise that kid's knowledge is not qualified to enter the research institute at all. Now he is in the research institute, and he is only an intern, so it is difficult to say whether he can stay or not. He is very interested in the change of the ocean climate, and he does climate observations every day, measuring temperature and precipitation...... It's really fun from morning till night! ”
"How could the prince be interested in this celestial phenomenon?" Xia Yunyi's heart sank.
Since ancient times, it has been taboo to study astronomy, and it is not allowed to study privately without the permission of the imperial court, and it may even be imprisoned and killed. The meteorology that Zhu Cihong studied is also a kind of astronomy, if someone attaches to the diagram or something, I am afraid that he will be in danger in the future!
"Jimin said that the Ming Dynasty came to my hands, half of it was **, and the other half was a natural disaster, the Central Plains was connected to more than ten years of catastrophes, which was caused by climate change, when he talked to me about this, he was heard by Cihong, and Cihong had a heart, and felt that if he could study the source of climate change and prepare in advance, he could make the people suffer less disasters, and it could be regarded as him making up for the original sins of my incompetent emperor."
"Why did Your Majesty say this, Your Majesty did not lose his morality at the beginning......"
"If there is no loss of morality, why should there be a rogue everywhere!"
Different from the original rigidity, after ten years of study and thinking, Chongzhen has a very deep understanding of the mistakes he made during his reign.
After the banquet, Xia Yunyi and his son said goodbye and left, and in the car, Xia Yunyi said: "Wanchun, are you willing to join the army or are you willing to take the political path?" ”
"What does the boss mean by agreeing to the child coming out to work for Yu Jimin?" Xia Wanchun's spirits perked up, he was so young, it was too early to talk about returning to Linquan. If it weren't for his unwillingness to go against his father's wishes, he would have come out a long time ago.
"Well, even His Majesty said so...... It is enough for our Xia family to have me, a lonely minister of the Ming Dynasty, and we must not delay your future any longer. Moreover, if you can achieve something in the future, you can also take care of it on the prince's side. ”
"The child wants to go to Xinxiang and stay on the farm there for two years. Go to the factory for another two years, and then strive for a job, starting from the very grassroots. ”
Xia Wanchun's answer made Xia Yunyi nod again and again: "My ambition is not small, and now Yu Jimin's officials mainly come from two sources, one is a retired veteran of the Huaxia military system, and the other is a subordinate official at all levels under his rule. Starting from the subordinate officials, you should pay attention to ......"
I heard my father babble and teach some "tricks" for being an official and a person. Xia Wanchun seemed respectful, but he was a little disappreciative in his heart.
The Huaxia system can be different from the old Ming system. Those experiences that have been tempered under the Ming system. It is worthless in the Chinese system. For example, under the original Ming bureaucratic system, if you do too much, it is easy to get into trouble, so all officials believe that more is better than less, but under the Chinese system, everyone seems to be driven by a whip. You have to do something, if you don't do it. will be whipped or even eliminated.
The kind of thing that leaves things to the staff master and the officials. As long as I drink tea and write poems, I am interested in trying two cases and being the master of the blue sky, which is impossible in the Chinese system. Xia Wanchun has seen the life of grassroots officials under the Huaxia system, although their income is much higher than in the Ming Dynasty, they also have much more work, almost all year round, and they also have to bear very important responsibilities.
"Let's go to Yu Mansion and have a look......" Not long after the coachman pedaled the car back, Xia Yunyi suddenly said again.
In four days, it will be Yu Guozhen's enthronement ceremony, there are many doubts bothering Xia Yunyi, he wants to go to Yu Guozhen to see, if Yu Guozhen is free, he will directly ask for advice, and by the way, he can also say hello to Yu Guozhen about Xia Wanchun.
But before they arrived at Yu's house, they found that the road had become congested.
The street renovation work in Jinling City began five years ago, when the people of the small court were panicked, so Yu Guozhen sent Lei Faxuan here, and it took more than half a year to make a plan. In recent years, there has not been much movement in the small imperial court, but several main streets in Jinling City have been repaired, hardened with cement, and the roads have become much smoother. But now the street is crowded with people, and most of them are going in one direction, it looks like they are rushing to see the excitement!
Xia Yunyi frowned, that direction was Yu Zhai!
About three years ago, Yu Guozhen bought a mansion in Jinling City, and then built his own mansion, although it is not very large, but it is quite chic, after he entered the city, he did not live in the palace, but lived here.
"What's wrong? What's wrong? Xia Wanchun jumped out of the car and pulled a person who came to him and asked.
"A group of Jianyu, a group of Jianyu surrounded the Yu Mansion!" The man stammered.
"What, how is this possible?" Xia Wanchun was taken aback, this is Jinling City, how could Jianyu appear here, and surround Yu Guozhen's mansion?
"Cough, my mouth, I didn't say it clearly, I was kneeling in front of Yu's mansion, my mother, I opened my eyes, and finally saw Jianyu kneeling...... When the Ming Dynasty was in the past, we did them a scourge......"
Hearing that the man began to recall the past, Xia Wanchun immediately let go of his hand and turned around and got into the car: "Boss, it's a group of Jianyu kneeling in front of Yu's mansion. ”
"Jianyu? This is strange, in the past, when Jianyu entered our China, they were all burning, killing and looting, but now Jianyu is here, but it is to kneel for Yu Jimin? ”
Xia Yunyi vaguely felt that this might be a big drama made up by Yu Guozhen, so there was a little ridicule in his words. However, he immediately retracted his thoughts, and turned to laugh at himself: after all, he was used to being sour, and even at this time, he could not forget to ridicule others.
"Let's go and see the excitement, but it seems that Yu Jimin doesn't have time to meet us." Xia Yunyi sighed slightly.
The coachman pedaled forward again, and they finally squeezed through the crowd to the front of Yu Guozhen's mansion, and sure enough, as the man said, dozens of bareheaded men knelt in front of the door of Yu's mansion, grabbing the ground with their heads one by one, and their heads were bleeding. Xia Yunyi looked at them, but it didn't seem to be fake, and when he was curious, he just saw an acquaintance dangling in front of him, and he suddenly shouted: "Huang Taichong, why are you here too!" ”
It was Huang Zongxi who was stopped by him. (To be continued)
