Xia Yuan was stunned.

I immediately remembered what happened in the morning, damn it, I was cheated by this dog prince again.

After figuring out the reason, he held back for a while before he said dryly: "Your Majesty, this is actually a misunderstanding." ”

"I naturally know that this is a misunderstanding, if I want to kill someone, I still need you? Just the Prince."

As soon as the word prince came out, Emperor Hongzhi sighed, "It's really hard for me to figure out what he has in his head. ”

That picture appeared in his mind again, Zhu Houzhao ran into the warm pavilion, and there were a bunch of horns pouring beans from the bamboo tube, what to be a tyrant, and all the ministers listened to what the master said.

Zhu Youzhu was stunned at first, then frowned, and then an evil fire rushed upward.

The source of this anger was not due to these words, but to Zhu Houzhao's appearance at that time, as if there was a little bit. Excited?

There seems to be a faint excitement.

He couldn't understand this at all, even if this kid misunderstood that I was going to be a tyrant, shouldn't he be worried and admonished?

Of course, even if you don't worry or advise, where does your excitement come from?

For a while, Zhu Youzhu thought a lot, such as whether this son was a tyrannical person, such as whether there was a problem with his brain.

All kinds of speculations are realized, that is, in one sentence, go outside and kneel.

Xia Yuan felt that there was no need to think about this matter at all, and the excitement of the second prince was most likely just unbelievable, and he felt fresh.

An emperor who treats his courtiers with great courtesy and a gentle temper wants to be a tyrant.

Everyone feels fresh.

"Fresh?"

Xia Yuan snorted, "After all, His Majesty's temper has always been kind, and the prince misunderstood this matter, and it is understandable that he thinks it is fresh, but the prince's temperament is like this, and in new things, he will behave better. Excited. ”

To put it nicely, this is called the juvenile heart, and to say it is ugly, it is two.

Xia Yuan can completely understand who did not have a second mistake when he was a teenager.

It's just that Zhu Houzhao's comparison is too much.

Emperor Hongzhi pondered for a while, accepted this explanation, and immediately dispelled the worries in his heart.

Although this son sometimes behaves more straightforwardly, he is actually quite smart, and he is not a tyrannical person, at most he hangs people from trees.

It's nothing more than worrying about chaos.

"That's it, it's not too early, you can get out of the palace, and tell that rebel by the way, let him go back to the East Palace, don't kneel there to be an eyesore."

"Oh, the minister is gone."

Xia Yuan silently withdrew from the warm pavilion, and then looked at the dog prince who was kneeling in the corner of the hall.

Looking at it like this, I feel that what Emperor Hongzhi said was quite excessive, kneeling in the corner and not even having a sense of existence, who is in the way?

The two of them walked out of the Qianqing Palace together, the gold bricks in the hall were really embarrassing, Zhu Houzhao staggered in his walking posture, his expression was angry and annoyed, and he also had a grudge, "This palace believes in your evil, and the palace has been kneeling since the morning." ”

For the sake of this thing, who has been kneeling for most of the day, Xia Yuan did not spray his IQ and comprehension, but said sincerely, "Yes, it is the minister's fault, and the minister apologizes to His Highness." ”

"There's no need to apologize, this palace is generous and doesn't care about you."

Zhu Houzhao leaned over and rubbed his knees, and grinned again: "This palace thought that it was rare for my father to be tough, but who knew that it was a misunderstanding. ”

"Your Highness is disappointed?"

"Sort of, Hongu thinks." Speaking of this, Zhu Houzhao looked left and right, and said in a low voice: "This palace feels that my father, the emperor, is not tough enough, and if the matter of building the road is in Emperor Taizu Taizong, those ministers will definitely not dare to object." ”

"Of course I don't dare to object."

"So being an emperor has to be tougher."

"Your so-called hard anger is a killing spree?"

"It's not enough to go on a killing spree, but at least you should pull it out and hit the board, and you can be honest after a beating."

Xia Yuan sneered, "Heh, it's just right, those ministers can't ask for it, and the opportunity to make a name for themselves has come." ”

"Then pick up your pants and hit again."

“.”

Xia Yuan was stunned, he remembered, it was this guy in front of him who created a precedent for the Ming Dynasty to take off his pants with a staff.

Before the Zhengde Dynasty, this court staff did not take off its pants, which was very decent.

"The minister advised His Highness not to do this, it is too humiliating and too offensive. And don't think about hitting anyone's staff, it's the lowest means. ”

Zhu Houzhao frowned, "Where is inferior?" ”

"The rod is lynching, which is very inferior."

The reason why the ministers of the Ming Dynasty couldn't ask for the court staff was not because these people had a tendency to be abused, but because the court staff was the emperor's lynching, not under the control of the Ming law, how to beat and how much to beat, it all depends on the emperor's mood.

can force the emperor to cross the law to use lynching, which means that the emperor can't find the fault of this minister, and he can't use the law to rule him, so he can only drag out the court staff in a frenzy of impotence.

Therefore, what they enjoy is not the staff of the court, but the meaning of the staff.

did not make a mistake, but was lynched by the emperor and beat the cane, doesn't it just show that this person is a courtier, and he is a direct admonition.

The ministers were the most sought after by these scholars.

In exchange for the admiration of the world's scholars, it is not chilling, but extremely glorious.

But taking off your pants and beating is different, showing your belly in public, which is not decent at all, even if it is sought after afterwards, it will become a lifetime of humiliation.

"In short, lynching is the worst thing, it will only ruin your own reputation, show that you are incompetent, and make others famous."

Xia Yuan pointed behind him, "When did you see Your Majesty hit the minister's court staff?" ”

"Heh" Zhu Houzhao sneered, "My father cherishes his reputation the most, he will only beat the palace, or he will fight behind closed doors, for fear of being seen by others." ”

"It's not fun for you to talk like this."

It's really boring, just talk about the day to death.

In this era, most of the ways of educating children are beatings, and there is no need for a reason to beat children.

In those days, there was no talk of human rights, let alone equality. The monarch and the minister, the father and the son, the monarch is the minister, the father is the son, to put it bluntly, the relationship between the father and the son is the relationship between the owner and the owned.

Emperor Hongzhi and Zhu Houzhao are not only monarchs and ministers, but also father and son, so beating him is the same as beating his grandson.

Not to mention that Zhu Houzhao is still such a good person, Emperor Hongzhi did not fight three times a day, and he was already a model father.

"Look, when this palace has a son in the future, I'll beat him if it's okay."

Transferring the suffering to the next generation is also a common practice in this era.

Xia Yuan mourned in his heart for the son who would probably not appear, and then Zhu Houzhao asked again, "Why do you say that there is no son in this palace?" Why are there so many palace maids, and none of them are useful. ”

So much?

Xia Yuan quickly grasped the point, "How much are you talking about?" ”

Zhu Houzhao was very modest, "Not much, only about twenty." ”

Phew, the dog thing is really shameless, more than twenty is not much.

Xia Yuan took a hard sip in his heart, and at the same time realized the seriousness of the problem, "Is there a pregnant one?" ”

"Aang, no." Zhu Houzhao smacked his lips, "There is no one who fights." ”

Xia Yuan was speechless for a while, this kid not only didn't realize the seriousness of the problem, but also licked his big face and said that others were not angry.

"Take your time, when you don't have a son next year, you come to me."

"You have a secret to having a son"

As he was talking, Zhu Houzhao suddenly felt that something was wrong with his words, "What do you mean?" ”
