Apocalypse asked, "You know?" ”

Zhang Guidao: "Your Majesty might as well go out of the palace with your ministers, Your Majesty will find the answer when the time comes." ”

"Good!"

Apocalypse went out of the palace with Zhang Gui that night.

"Where are you taking me?"

Apocalypse asked Zhang Gui.

"Qinglou."

Zhang Gui replied.

Tianqi looked at Zhang Gui in surprise: "You won't want me?" ”

Tianqi said and took a few steps back: "It's not good for your sister to know." ”

"Your Majesty has misunderstood! Your Majesty can only come here if you want to know why you are being scolded. ”

Zhang Gui said.

"Why?"

Apocalypse asked.

"Your Majesty, do you know why most of the Qinglou prostitution halls are opened next to the academy palace?"

Zhang Gui didn't wait for the apocalypse to answer: "The reason is that in addition to reading, people like to come to this place the most, otherwise why talk about talents." ”

Apocalypse nodded in realization.

After Zhang Gui took the apocalypse to the Qinglou, he found a warm pavilion and sat down.

Nowadays, Da Ming Shilin advocates family affairs, national affairs, and everything in the world is concerned, especially in this fireworks willow lane, the scholars who did not communicate with women alone in the house have just finished the rhyme of the wind and moon and entered the sage mode.

Therefore, Zhang Gui and Tianqi soon heard these scholars start to talk about the apocalypse.

"I have always heard that there are only three things like today, one is good carpentry, two is good to walk the horse, and three is good at listening to the play, but it is not good for government affairs, but fortunately, now Fuqing (Ye Xianggao) is in power, and the Donglin Qunxian is enabled, so the people are in the dynasty, so that the country is not wasted! It's just that the Son of Heaven is so immoral, and there is no one to admonish him, which makes people sorrowful! ”

At this time, there was a gentleman squinting his eyes, drinking the wine handed by a woman, and without hesitation, he took his eyes off the woman in front of him and talked about state affairs.

After hearing this, Tianqi's heart suddenly became a little angry.

You must know that at his current age, he is still a young man with strong blood.

But Zhang Gui held his wrist: "Your Majesty will listen again." ”

Apocalypse nodded.

"Yes, I heard that if the son does not know a word today, or even is unscrupulous, incest with his nursing mother, there are eunuchs who do not listen to each other, and even the courtiers ask for an order to order the Hakka to leave the palace, and the Son of Heaven is not allowed, obviously because of adultery with the nursing mother. is so rebellious against human morality, you can't do it unless you are a faint gentleman! ”

Another scholar also followed suit, and angrily slapped a few cases: "The country has been raising soldiers for 200 years, how can we sit back and watch the Son of Heaven go so far, if we can be listed in the court class in the future, we will definitely admonish the monarch's father and reprimand him for his stupidity!" ”

"Brother Chen can be described as Top Gun! We have great respect for it! ”

Some of the scholars chimed in.

And Tianqi was already blushing, gritted his teeth at Zhang Gui and said, "I am a good carpenter, but I have never wasted government affairs!" I practice riding and archery to strengthen my body, how can I say that I am a good horseman! I'm listening to a play, but it's just a pastime! That's it, why do you slander me and the nursing mother so much, and how will future generations look at my nursing mother in the future? Could it be that she worked hard to raise me and still have to be scolded as an adulteress?! ”

"The faint king is in power, and the future is unpredictable!"

"Now this great tomorrow is not only incestuous with his nursing mother, but also has a Longyang affair with his brother-in-law Uncle Zhang Guo!"

"That's right, you should naturally understand why King Xin lived in the palace for a long time and did not settle in the domain, and this is also the reason."

These scholars also rely on the high degree of freedom of speech in today's Ming Dynasty, and they are so hilarious that they are not good, and now they are in the gentle township and are held by a group of people, so they make up everything, or in other words, they put the extravagant and corrupt life in their lives directly on the emperor.

Since the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the male style has prevailed.

Just as when the common people fantasize about the life of the emperor, they will think that the emperor has endless bread every day, when these scholars fantasize about the life of the emperor, they also think that the emperor should either engage women or men every day, so they arrange the Son of Heaven in this way.

Hearing this, Apocalypse stood up directly, glaring and clenching his fists.

Some of the scholars looked at him because of this.

Zhang Gui grabbed him and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty is angry, sit down first." ”

"This benevolent brother is so indignant, he must be angry with the son of today! In the future, if you are listed in the court, you will be a direct minister! ”

At this time, a scholar also took the initiative to walk towards the apocalypse and bowed his hand to the apocalypse: "I don't know what the name of Brother Ren is?" ”

"Brother Chongzhen."

Zhang Gui replied for the apocalypse at this time.

"It turned out to be Brother Chongzhen! Fortunately, I will be glad to meet you! ”

After the scholar gave his hand, he introduced himself and said: "My surname is Cui, and the words are clear."

Then, this Cui Ming said: "I am also extremely indignant at the shameless behavior of today's son, so to speak, I can't wait to die now!" Reprimand the monarch! ”

Tianqi looked at him: "In that case, then you and I will go together, and now we will go to death, how about it?!" ”

Apocalypse said that he was really going to pull him away.

Cui Mingyu hurriedly grabbed him: "Don't! Brother Chongzhen, don't get excited, I'm just talking, now that my reputation has not been achieved, how dare I speak up? What's more, having said that, Brother Chongzhen doesn't need to be like this, the Son of Heaven is stupid, in fact, it is a good thing. ”

Zhang Gui pretended to be puzzled at this time and asked: "How is it or a good thing?" ”

This Cui Mingyu seems to be a person who is a social cow, and when he saw Zhang Gui asking, he also played with it: "The Son of Heaven is not faint, how can it appear that we are loyal and virtuous?" ”

Zhang Gui nodded, so he realized: "Therefore, I am also a little puzzled, if the Son of Heaven says that he is young and not old enough, it is somewhere, but it is a little unfounded to say that he is incestuous and even good manhood." What's more, even if there is such a thing, it should be bluntly admonished, how can it be publicized behind the back, this is not the way of a minister, but it seems that no one thinks it is wrong now. ”

This Cui Mingyu laughed out loud and said to Tianqi: "Brother Ling is still a naïve person, he has to pay attention to evidence, and he has misunderstood the way of being a minister!" ”

As he spoke, Cui Mingyu said to Zhang Gui in a suggestive tone: "The way to be a minister should be to the monarch's father to be Yao Shun, so that the Son of Heaven will abide by the way of being a king!" ”

Cui Mingyu said again: "But how can there be a monarch in the world who is completely in line with the way of being a king?" If there is such a monarch in the world, then what is the use of our scholars? ”

Cui Mingyu waved his folding fan when he said this: "Therefore, for the king, even if it is like Renzong of the Song Dynasty and Xiaomiao of this Dynasty, he must find some of his shortcomings, and if there are no shortcomings, he must also make some of them, otherwise how can it seem that it is my scholars and doctors who have prompted the appearance of such a holy lord and benevolent monarch." Of course, if the king can abide by the way of the monarch as much as possible, we scholars should naturally respect him more than degrade him. ”

As he spoke, Cui Mingyu asked the scholars, "What do you say?" ”

"That's right!"

Many scholars replied.

Tianqi had a calm face at this time, with a hint of indignation, and asked with a wry smile: "So, if you don't scold the Son of Heaven, you are not worthy of being a minister?" ”

"Naturally, no one asks about the Qing officials for ten years, and once the dragon scales are known to the world."

Cui Mingyu replied accordingly.

"That's it!"

Others responded.

Apocalypse turned and walked away.

Zhang Gui also followed, following behind Tianqi: "Your Majesty heard it, this is the reason." ”
