Chapter 223: The Dirty Water of the Lower Three Floods
Cheng Zhu Lixue's determination is an important doctrine that gives all the thoughts of the pre-Qin sages a clear definition and authoritative explanation.
In the past, Song's gang of civil officials who were rotten in Zhu Yunxi's eyes were a group of fools who indulged in useless whispers all day long.
They not only limited the possibility of the former Song Dynasty subjugating the sixteen states of Yanyun, but also imprisoned the all-round development of the Central Plains society.
Those civil officials and celebrities who seem to be known for their virtuous and talented talents in later generations are just touted by the descendants who are also literati in the next few hundred years.
Cultivating the history of the Tang Dynasty, Ouyang Xiu, who cultivates the history of the Tang Dynasty into a person with strong subjective thoughts and a little bit of righteousness, is such a person.
Promote dogma and etiquette, and make out the civil officials who only care about their personal reputations such as the two sects of Qin and Hui who have lost the face of the Han family in the Central Plains.
In order to publish the most advanced technical records of the Central Plains at that time, they still felt that they could not express their noble thoughts, and sent these books to the rotten cowards of the empire.
They value their personal reputation more than the dignity of their country. On top of that, they will always start with the reputation of their political opponents.
Nowadays, some people in the Ming Dynasty have also learned the advanced methods of their predecessors and began to use those indiscriminate methods in the Ming Dynasty.
This is the fundamental reason why Zhu Yunxi dislikes that era from the bottom of his heart.
His face was gloomy, and he looked at Xie Jin, who had become very familiar with gossip and scandals because he was now in the Guozijian all day long: "When did the matter come out?" ”
Xie Jin invited Zhu Yunxi and Zhu Gaochi to go under the pergola next to the bookstore construction site.
I saw that the two officials sent by the Ministry of Industry to supervise the progress were still drinking herbal tea under the pergola, and they had no eyesight. Xie Jin immediately raised his foot and kicked at the nearest person.
"The Ancient God Emperor"
"Keep an eye on the progress for the officer."
The two little officials didn't dare to provoke the dignified Wenhua Hall Walking and Hanlin Bachelors, and they rushed into the construction site on the side as soon as they smoked.
Zhu Yunxi glanced at it vigorously, and changed his style today, and he was angry with those little officials.
Zhu Gaochi now has no sense of resistance and anxiety about skipping class, and he can't remember how many times he has escaped from class with Brother Xi in just one month.
Seeing that Brother Xi was going to talk to this bachelor, he went to the tea table first, took the bowls used by the officials aside, and took three clean bowls, and felt that they were not very clean, so he took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped the three bowls inside and out several times, and then got a cup of tea for each of the three of them.
Xie Jin's face was gloomy and very ugly, and after sitting down, he arched his hand to Zhu Gaochi, thanked him, and drank a bowl of tea.
Zhu Gaochi, who was also about to say that he was anxious to drink tea slowly, opened his mouth and said, "I'm tired of pouring another bowl." ”
Zhu Gaochi sighed, and he didn't feel that his dignified identity as the prince of Yan Wang should pour tea for Xie Jin.
At this moment, Xie Jincai wiped his mouth and looked at Zhu Yunxi: "Those eggless people are really not a thing!" ”
Zhu Yunxi snorted: "So, the rumor is more serious than you say?" ”
Xie Jin's face was still full of anger: "Those things, the court can't fight Ren Hengtai, I didn't get it for Ren Shilang, I turned my head and started to do these indiscriminate tricks, pouring dirty water on Ren Shilang, it's really not a gentleman's doing!" Now that Ren Shilang has closed his door, their servants will be scolded by the people in the city when they go out on the street. ”
Zhu Gaochi, who was sitting next to him and observing his words, couldn't help but whisper: "The matter has reached this point? ”
Xie Jin glanced at Zhu Gaochi, the prince of Yanwang, and said indignantly: "Now it is rumored outside, Ren Shilang's nephew's belly has been enlarged. When he was at home, he only had to take care of his niece's daily life. ”
"It's so insidious......" Zhu Gao muttered, silently knocked on Zhu Yunxi on the side, and whispered: "When I was in Beiping, I often heard about Ren Shilang's diligence and ability, and now if his reputation is bad, I am afraid that this career will be over, and there will be one less virtuous and loyal minister in the court." ”
Zhu Yunxi's face was also gloomy, he had thought of the ruthlessness of those people, but he didn't expect that those people would be so bottomless.
It is often said that a gentleman makes a promise, and what he values is the reputation of the person.
Whether it is walking the rivers and lakes, or joining the court.
Fame is the most fundamental way for a person to survive.
Once the reputation is bad, this pure social public opinion will crush a person to death.
Zhu Yunxi opened his mouth and asked, "What is the truth of the matter?" This matter can't always come out of nowhere, and there must be a reason so that those people can seize the loopholes and make up the facts. ”
is like Ren Hengtai's niece and niece, these two people are bound to exist.
Xie Jin sighed, his face full of helplessness.
"If it weren't for the minister's careful exploration in the past few days, I really wouldn't have known that Ren Shilang was my righteous gentleman!"
After giving Ren Hengtai, who is now splashed with dirty water, a full compliment.
Xie Jin sighed and said: "First of all, the nephew and daughter-in-law of Ren Shilang's family, then blame her for marrying a good person, Ren Shilang's nephew is a lazy person, and he either goes to Qinhuai River to mess around or gambles in the gambling house all day long." ”
"The family foundation was ruined like this, and when the nephew returned home, he didn't like anything, and repeatedly punched and kicked his daughter-in-law."
"Ren Shilang can't see it, his nephew lost his husband at an early age, and he left an old mother, and he can't discipline him. Ren Shilang came to the door, his nephew and daughter-in-law were being beaten by men, so the nephew had no choice but to grab Ren Shilang and hide behind him. ”
"Obviously, it was such a matter of disciplining the children of the family, and it was rumored that Ren Shilang had an affair with his nephew and daughter-in-law. Coincidentally, no one knew that his nephew-in-law was pregnant at that time, so this matter could not be regarded as being choreographed. ”
Zhu Yunxi's brows furrowed when he heard this, he could already think that at that time, Ren Shilang heard about his nephew's bastard, and came to the door to discipline him, and then he bumped into his nephew and beat his nephew again. When the poor woman saw the elders coming, she instinctively wanted to hide behind them.
Probably a good thing people saw this, and then they were used by those people.
His face became more and more gloomy: "What about the niece in the back house who looks like a waiter?" ”
When Xie Jin heard this, he directly slapped the table, and Zhu Gaochi, who had been shaking his head when he heard that Ren Hengtai was choreographed, was so frightened that he trembled all over.
Xie Jin said coldly: "This is even more nonsense. Ren Shilang's niece's family suffered a disaster in the early years, and all of them died, and the people in the clan were a group of bastards, who didn't care about a little girl, and Ren Shilang also had a great kindness, so he took it to his home and handed it over to his wife to take care of. ”
"On weekdays, Ren Shilang treats her as his own daughter, and he began to think about family affairs for his niece last year. Such a kind family treats their children and nephews leniently, how can they be trampled into what they are now by those eggless things! ”
Thinking of Zhu Gaochi, who was calm and stable, he was also indignant at this time: "It's hateful!" Not for the style of a gentleman! ”
Zhu Yunxi was also angry in his heart, he was indeed deliberately conniving at those people to be presumptuous, this was also so that they could relax their vigilance and be completely exposed.
But this kind of thing that touches the bottom line is something he will never allow.
It's just that at this moment, he forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and turned his head to look at Zhu Gaochi: "Brother Chi thinks that this matter should be handled?" ”
Zhu Gaochi, who was named, was stunned for a moment, never thinking that he needed to answer this question.
He looked at Zhu Yunxi blankly, a little hesitant in his heart, how he should answer.
Zhu Yunxi smiled silently: "Brother Chi'er, but it doesn't hurt to say it, it's all your own people here." ”
got Zhu Yunxi's reassurance.
Zhu Gaochi nodded and said, "A good person like Ren Shilang must not damage his reputation. The imperial court should clearly explain the matter, publicize the good deeds of Ren Shilang, and praise him. It is also necessary to reprimand those who spread rumors, order them to turn over a new leaf, and never tarnish people's reputations in vain. If there is a repeat offense, the commander should be ordered to arrest and punish him. ”
After finishing what he thought in his heart, Zhu Gaochi cautiously looked up at Zhu Yunxi.
Zhu Yunxi shook his head slowly.
Under the gaze of Xie Jin and Zhu Gaochi.
Zhu Yunxi said gloomily: "Not enough! That's not enough! ”
"Not enough?" Zhu Gaochi was a little embarrassed, and felt that restoring Ren Hengtai's reputation now was the most important thing.
Zhu Yunxi looked at the two with a smile, and then beckoned to Sun Cheng, who was standing outside the pergola, and coughed lightly.
Sun Cheng, who was dressed in a Jinyi Wei deputy Qianhu flying fish suit, immediately turned around and entered the pergola.
Before long, in a place where no one noticed, a man dressed in black trolling also walked in. It was in Zhejiang Province that led the troops to Pujiang County in the wind and snow to guard Tianmai.
Sun Cheng and Tian Mai stood under the pergola.
"What does the grandson command?"
Under the curious gaze of Zhu Gaochi and Xie Jin, Zhu Yunxi snorted coldly and turned the white jade wrench in his hand.
"Go, find out the person who is spreading rumors among the people and slandering the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites Ren Hengtai."
Sun Cheng immediately responded.
Tian Mai, who was born as a secret guard, said in a low voice: "Taisun, what should the subordinates do after they find these people?" ”
Zhu Yunxi didn't freeze: "Where to find it, I dragged it to the excuse and slapped it in public!" ”
didn't wait for Tian Mai and Sun Cheng to speak.
Zhu Yunxi said gloomily: "If someone from the government or the court comes forward to question you, tell them, it is the order of the Ming Dynasty!" ”
"Whoa!"
Sun Cheng and Tian Mai agreed at the same time.
Immediately, the two of them got out of the pergola, and immediately a team of brocade guards followed Sun Cheng to the downtown of the city.
And in the dark, there are countless footsteps from the dark guards.
When Xie Jin saw Zhu Yunxi's Yu Ling, he just frowned and didn't say a word.
Zhu Gaochi also frowned, and couldn't bear to whisper: "Do you want to do this?" ”
Zhu Yunxi snorted coldly, and then looked at Zhu Gaochi with a smile: "Brother Chi, this is still not enough." ”
Zhu Gaochi looked puzzled: "It's not enough? ”
