Chapter 161: A ray of sunshine

Zhu Quan recalled Sun Xu's group of scholars, when they faced Jinyiwei yesterday, he sighed secretly in his heart, and said: These scholars are young and vigorous, righteous and outspoken, and although their courage is admirable, it is a pity that such an impulsive move has invisibly interfered with the anti-corruption policy of the imperial court. Thinking of this, he walked out of the queue and bowed down and said: "Yesterday, Sun Xu's group of scholars were bold and reckless, and the sons had a plan for how to deal with them. Saying this, I secretly made up my mind in my heart, and thought: With the old man's decisive temper, if he waits for him to say how to deal with it, I am afraid that it will be irreparable.

The crown prince Zhu Biao frowned when he heard this, and secretly thought: "Brother Quan used to be very soft-hearted, not a ruthless person, could it be that the first battle in Liaodong has made his temperament very different from the past?" He is Zhu Yuanzhang's eldest son, and he has followed the Red Turban Army since he was a child, so he naturally understands that after experiencing battlefield battles, a person's temperament often changes greatly, and he can't help but worry about this.

Fang Xiaoru and Huang Zicheng saw that Zhu Quan was intent on taking revenge on Sun Xu and other scholars, and they couldn't help but be angry in their hearts, and they were about to speak when they walked out of the queue.

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his left hand, stopping what Zhu Biao, Fang Xiaoru and the others wanted to say, staring at Zhu Quan with both eyes and saying in a deep voice: "Quan'er, do you have any way to deal with these national eunuchs?" ”

Zhu Quan said loudly: "When the fourth brother last discussed moving the capital, he once said that the cultural atmosphere of the northern provinces is far inferior to that of the southern provinces, and this situation should not be underestimated. It is also appropriate to promote the Confucian culture that they talk about all day long. Speaking of this, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and said with a secret smile in his heart: Since Zhu Laosi and I have become an alliance now, we have to bring him if there are benefits.

"Okay." Zhu Yuanzhang had fully understood what Zhu Quan meant, and after a little silence, he pointed to Wu Hao, the priest of the country's son in the civil official queue, and said coldly: "Wu Hao, in the past, when I appointed you to serve as this sacrificial wine, I once said that the teacher is strict and then exemplary, and if the teacher is not established, the education will not work. As the prince of the country, you are a model for all provinces, prefectures, and counties in the world. But how do you do it? Not only did he condone the gang of bold men yesterday to make trouble, but he also did not strictly admonish his own students. I see that you don't need to make the sacrificial wine of the country. Speaking of this, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Zhu Quan, and secretly thought in his heart: Quan'er, this kid is smart, but it's a pity that his temperament is too wild, and he must be strictly disciplined.

Wu Hao's face turned pale when he heard this, he knelt on the ground, and said astringently: "Weichen congratulates Your Majesty for your holy grace." ”

Fang Xiaoru walked out of the queue and looked at the Guozijian Siye who was standing beside Wu Hao, wearing the costume of a six-rank civil official. Lang Sheng said: "Master Li Xiyan, the secretary of the Guozi Supervisor, is a square person, and Weichen recommended him to serve as the priest of the country. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang recalled the report of the Jinyi guard installed in the Guozi Prison, when Li Xiyan was teaching, he was very serious, and he was very satisfied, pointed at Li Xiyan, nodded and said in a deep voice: "Li Xiyan will replace Wu Hao and serve as the Guozi Supervisor." Strict and then exemplary and upright, if the teacher does not stand, the education will not work. I still say this today, I hope you will not live up to my trust. Speaking of this, after a slight pause, he asked, "How many prisoners are there in the current Guozi Prison?" ”

Zhu Quan heard the words of Zhu Yuanzhang and Fang Xiaoru, and kept looking at Li Xiyan, who was kneeling on the ground to receive the order, and was angry in his heart, and secretly thought to himself: This retribution is coming too quickly. When Fang Xiaoru saw me sleeping in class, he categorically didn't show mercy to his subordinates, but it is conceivable that this Li Xiyan he recommended could be a good stubble? If you don't raise your godfather, you can't teach your teacher too much. Why didn't any of these civil officials come out to talk to Old Man Zhu about this truth? Could it be that such a well-known saying has not yet been popularized?

Li Xiyan heard the emperor's inquiry, and replied loudly: "A total of 4,675 prisoners. ”

"Okay, I will select 1,000 of these prisoners who are excellent in character and learning, and go to the three northern provinces to serve as the scholars, teachings, and instructors of the prefectures, counties, and townships. Dong $ Fang $ .com" Speaking of this, he turned his head and pointed to Zhan Hui, the secretary of the ministry, and said loudly: "This matter will be supervised by you and Li Xiyan, and you must not slack off." Wu Hao and the gang of prisoners led by Sun Xu who made trouble yesterday all went to teach in the most barren and barren prefectures in Shandong. He looked at the civil officials who showed surprise on their faces, and said coldly: "Doesn't the Confucius you admire also pay attention to joining the WTO?" The truth is catchy, is it all aimed at others? It doesn't work to put it on yourself? Whoever makes no more noise, just prepare to eat the court staff and scatter the court. Lan Yu, who looked disappointed in the queue of military generals, sneered slightly in his heart, turned around and walked away, and slowly went back to his imperial study.

"Marquis of Changxing" Lan Yu saw that when he was in the early dynasties twice, the emperor actually didn't say a word about the Northern Expedition, and let out a long breath, as if he wanted to spit out his depressed breath, and turned around and followed Xu Da and other princes to leave the Fengtian Palace.

In the afternoon, Zhu Quan sat alone by the small lake in the backyard of the quiet Ning Wangfu, staring at the calm lake, recalling in his heart that when the court was meeting this morning, the three high-ranking officials of the Criminal Department lost their lives under the words of Zhu Yuanzhang, the Hongwu Emperor, and recalled that when Sun Xu's group of scholars came to find him and Zhu Di to theorize yesterday, his face was full of righteous indignation, and he secretly smiled bitterly in his heart: They came to pester me and Zhu Laosi, intending to save their classmates and friends, although such a move is selfless, Can you see the major policies related to society with enthusiasm alone? If it weren't for the timely arrival of the crown prince Zhu Biao yesterday, and Jiang Xian's ruthlessness under the command of Jinyiwei, I am afraid that these hot-brained boys will lose their lives in vain, and they will all be like falling into a dream and being confused.

Just as Zhu Quan was pondering, there was a sudden sound of extremely slight footsteps in his ears, which was obviously approaching quietly from behind.

Zhu Quan was secretly strange in his heart, and said in his heart: If it is a master, I am afraid that I am already standing behind me, and I may not be able to find out. Just thinking of this time, there was a faint fragrance faintly wafting from the end of his nose, and his heart suddenly became clear, secretly funny, pretending not to know, and when the other party's hands stretched out, Huo Ran turned around and jumped up, grabbed the other party, and said angrily: "What a big courage, dare to tease this king." ”

Xu Ying, who was wearing a light yellow shirt, wanted to unexpectedly cover Zhu Quan's eyes with both hands, and suddenly attacked him suddenly, and let out an exclamation in his mouth, although he avoided his body under the dodge, the sleeve of his left hand was firmly grasped by Zhu Quan in his right hand, and he didn't dare to struggle anymore, he stomped his feet lightly and said angrily: "Hurry up and let go, don't tear my sleeves." ”

Seeing that she was finally willing to come to see him, Zhu Quan couldn't help blinking his eyes with joy and said with a smile: "Aren't you angry with me?" You say I'll let you go if you don't get angry. ”

Xu Ying heard that Zhu Quan was so threatening herself, she raised her eyebrows and slowly walked to Zhu Quan's side, her silver teeth gently bit her lips, her eyes avoided Zhu Quan's gaze, and she said softly: "Who said I'm not angry?" I came to see you today to ask you a word in person, and you have to answer me honestly. Without waiting for him to answer, he suddenly turned his head to stare into Zhu Quan's eyes, and asked in a deep voice: "When you were in Gyeongju that day, if you led the army, if General Wang Bi didn't arrive in time with reinforcements, would you kill those Yuan army soldiers?" ”

Zhu Quan saw Xu Ying staring at him with a pair of bright eyes, his heart trembled, recalling his expedition to Liaodong, the fierce scene of Shura's hellish when he was fighting in Gyeongju, the intrigue surging above the temple, and he couldn't help but fight between heaven and man in his heart, and deeply understood that since he came to this world, he has experienced countless deceits, and after almost dying, he is no longer the self who was not deeply involved in the world in the past, and has become cunning and ruthless unconsciously, and secretly made up his mind and said: What the world says is true, good, and beautiful, If there is a mutual deception between everyone and everyone in this world, everything becomes a gesture, everything is fake, what good and beautiful are you talking about? Thinking of this, he turned his head to stare into the distance, and said in a deep voice: "If General Wang Bi's reinforcements were a moment late at that time, even if Lan Yu didn't give the order, I would let them kill all those Yuan army soldiers." The Yuan army is a human being, is it true that the soldiers of our Ming Dynasty and the common people are not human? As a soldier who defends my home and country, I must first ensure the victory of the war, and then say any mercy to the enemy. Saying this, I couldn't help but sigh secretly in my heart: Perhaps the most cruel part of war is not death, but that many times you can't consider what is so-called right and wrong.

Xu Ying heard Zhu Quan say this, and what flashed in her mind was the empty houses in Gyeongju City that were destroyed by the war. When the soldier Wang Erhu was eager to kill those pawns and avenge his eldest brother who died tragically in the hands of the Yuan army, the hideous color on his face, and what echoed in his ears was what he said, which he could not refute, sighed secretly, and said: Although he has changed a lot, he is unwilling to deceive me, and this will never change. Thinking like this, his heart suddenly softened, and he slowly came to Zhu Quan's side, stretched out his arms and gently hugged his waist, and lay his head on his chest, silently.

Zhu Quan saw her melt like an iceberg and return to her former docile cat-like demeanor, his heart was extremely happy, he stretched out his arms to gently hug her slender waist, looked at the bright and dazzling sunlight above his head, and suddenly said softly: "Do you know, since I came to this world, I have experienced too many sinister people's hearts, as if I am in endless darkness, and you are that ray of sunshine." ”

Xu Ying heard Zhu Quan's ears and temples grinding, compared himself to a beam of sunshine, her heart was warm, and she was very happy when her tenderness suddenly rose, and she couldn't help but have a small temperament, opened her mouth and bit Zhu Quan's shoulder hard, and said hatefully: "I hate you." Zhu Quan frowned in surprise, bowed his head to hide his reddish face, and said angrily: "Because you don't want to lie to me." ”
