The book "History of the Ming Dynasty" does not have a high evaluation of Zhu Houzhao, pointing out that he is playful, greedy for cups, lustful, still soldiers, scoundrels, and absurd in his behavior. (Please search, or enter directly to see the latest chapter) But in fact, people who are really familiar with the history of the Ming Dynasty know that Zhu Houzhao is not a very unbearable emperor, and it can be seen from many things that he is resolute and decisive, and he is an emperor with the potential of a Ming monarch.
Zhu Houzhao's father, Zhu Youzhang, is also Ming Xiaozong, and he can be regarded as one of the few emperors in history who has been rated as a generation of British masters. The evaluation of Zhu Youzhang in the History of the Ming Dynasty can be summarized in eight words: "Respectful and frugal, diligent and loving the people." ”。 The Hongzhi Dynasty can be regarded as the Zhongxing Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty, and there were many upright ministers in this dynasty, such as Wang Shu, Li Dongyang, and Liu Daxia.
As Zhu Youzhang's only son, Zhu Houzhao grew up under the favor of his father and queen mother, saying that he was a faint king, but it was better to say that he was a spoiled child.
After reading "Victoria's Secret", Zhu Houzhao picked five girls to go to the largest "Qunfang Residence" in Qunfang Pavilion, and he didn't have to guess too much to know that Zhu Houzhao was going to be a Changshan Zhao Zilong tonight, killing one seven in and seven out. Of course, it's definitely not just seven in and seven out.
Night.
Most of the guests have already left, and only a few guests have chosen to stay, and Zhu Houzhao is naturally one of them. Jiang Xia was ready to rest after taking care of everything, but when he went to the third floor, he happened to run into Zhang Yong.
Jiang Xia raised his hand to Zhang Yong and saluted, "Master Zhang." ”
Zhang Yong waved his hand and said with a smile: "Young Master Jiang is polite, you and my master are sworn brothers, how dare I call myself 'master' in front of you." The young master still calls me Zhang Yong directly, it's too formal, but it seems to be raw. ”
Jiang Xia was slightly stunned, thinking to herself, what does it mean to be raw? Is it good to be very raw, and I never feel familiar with you?
However, there is a way that people respect me for a foot, I respect people, Jiang Xia saw that Zhang Yong was so polite, so he smiled and said: "Calling the name of the big name is inevitably too disrespectful, if the 'master' doesn't dislike it, then how about Jiang Xia just call 'Brother Zhang'?"
"This" Zhang Yong secretly calculated in his heart, Jiang Xia is the emperor's "big brother", if Jiang Xia calls himself "big brother". Zhang Yong immediately shook his head and said, "I'm afraid this is a bit inappropriate, after all, Young Master Jiang, you are my master's 'righteous eldest brother', if you treat me as a brother, then wouldn't I be arrogant?"
There are so many twists and turns, Jiang Xia secretly said in his heart, but said with a smile on his face: "Brother Zhang, don't worry too much, we all have our own hands, and it is incoherent." In front of the second child, I don't call Brother Zhang 'big brother', that is. ”
Zhang Yong is not a person who twists and turns, and when he heard Jiang Xia say this, he nodded and said, "Okay, then follow what Brother Jiang said." ”
Zhang Yong took out a red post from his arms, handed it to Jiang Xia and said, "Brother Jiang, at the end of next month, Brother Yu will hold a treasure appreciation meeting in the courtyard of his home, and I hope that Brother Jiang can come over to play together." ”
"Treasure Appraisal Conference?" Jiang Xia took the post, although he didn't know what the form of the Treasure Appraisal Conference was, but when he heard Zhang Yong say that he had his own courtyard, Jiang Xia was still secretly surprised. I had already guessed that Zhu Shou's kid's family was rich, but I didn't expect that there was money to such a point, and a subordinate actually had his own courtyard, and he could afford to hold a treasure appreciation conference.
Although he was surprised in his heart, Jiang Xia still nodded on the surface and said, "Thank you Brother Zhang for the invitation, I will definitely arrive then." However, Jiang Xia has no long things, so he can't afford to give any big gifts. ”
Jiang Xia suspected that Zhang Yong invited him to let him go with the money, so he first blocked this possibility with the sentence "I have no long things".
Zhang Yong smiled and hurriedly waved his hand: "Where do you need Brother Jiang to give any big gifts, as long as people can come to me, Zhang Yong will feel honored." ”
"Brother Zhang is polite. Seeing Zhang Yong so polite, Jiang Xia's senses were a little better for him. He pointed downstairs and said, "Brother Zhang, the second child may have fallen asleep now, why don't I arrange two girls for you, and you can rest early?"
Hearing Jiang Xia say that he would arrange two girls for himself, Zhang Yong's cheeks twitched slightly. If these words were changed to ordinary people, Zhang Yong would definitely be angry, but when the words came out of Jiang Xia's mouth, Zhang Yong forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, shook his head with a smile and said: "Foolish brother thank you brother for your kindness, but foolish brother must protect the safety of his master, so brother's kindness foolish brother understands." ”
Jiang Xia glanced at Zhang Yong, in fact, he could see that whether it was this Zhang Yong or that Liu Jing, both of them were practitioners. Especially Liu Jing, his lower plate is very stable, his hands are covered with calluses, and he is definitely a person who has worked kung fu.
Jiang Xia yawned slightly, he waved his hand and said, "That big brother Zhang is hard, so I'll go back to the room to rest." ”
"Good. Zhang Yong nodded, and the two waved goodbye.
In the same late night, the lights in the study of the Li Mansion were always on and never extinguished. Earlier, Cao Yuan specially asked people to pay a high price to buy an invitation to enter Qunfang Pavilion, and after watching the performance of Qunfang Pavilion, Cao Yuan immediately came to the Li Mansion to report.
Cao Yuan told Li Dongyang everything he saw.
After listening to Cao Yuan's report, Li Dongyang, who had always been calm and steady, moody and temperamental, couldn't help but throw his favorite purple gold jade teacup in his hand on the ground. Fortunately, the carpet was laid on the floor so that it did not break.
"Contrary to morality, immorality and immorality. This person is a big demon, if you don't cut it off, it will become a big disaster. ”
After being silent for a long time, Li Dongyang said this sentence word by word. Every word that came out of Li Dongyang's mouth made people feel as if they were more than a thousand pounds, and they were loud and loud.
Li Dongyang raised his head and looked at Cao Yuan, who had been sitting in the study waiting, and he said, "Cao Yuan, you go to inform Shuntianfu to judge the king early tomorrow morning, and tell him that the Qunfang Pavilion must be closed within seven days." If it is not closed, he will wait to become an official in Shunai next year. ”
"Yes!" Cao Yuan got up and answered, and then said with a slight sigh of relief: "Teacher, if there is nothing else, the student will leave first." ”
Li Dongyang nodded, waved his hand and said, "Go ahead." ”
Cao Yuan bowed and saluted Li Dongyang, "The student is leaving." ”
Li Dongyang bowed slightly, and Cao Yuan respectfully walked out of Li Dongyang's room. After Cao Yuan closed the door of Li Dongyang's study, Li Dongyang sighed and said to himself: "The country will die, and there will be demons." Jiang Xia should be damned!"
Morning. The sun is shining on the earth, which is a sign that today is a good day.
The girls of Qunfang Pavilion, who have always been accustomed to getting up late, got up very early today, because today is the day of the celebration of Qunfang Pavilion.
The girl servants of Qunfang Pavilion all sold themselves to Qunfang Pavilion, and it stands to reason that everything should be done, and they never thought that they would be rewarded after they did a good job.
In the hall of Qunfang Pavilion, nearly 400 people up and down Qunfang Pavilion, such as girls, servants, big teapots, and turtle princes, all stayed in the hall. Jiang Xia and Kang Qingyan were standing on the stage, and there was a large wooden board on the stage, on which the merit list was written, and then the content below was covered with red paper.
Kang Qingyan has rarely taken care of things recently, so at this celebration party, she just simply said a few words that everyone did a good job, and then let Jiang Xia speak. Jiang Xia stood on the stage and said to everyone: "I think it's all false to say anything, you have to show up the guy first." ”
Jiang Xia clapped his hands, and the four guards carried two large boxes to the stage, Jiang Xia nodded and motioned for the guards to open the boxes. As soon as the box was opened, two chests full of white flowers and silver.
"Wow" Seeing so much silver, the people of Qunfang Pavilion couldn't help but exclaim, they had already begun to guess in their hearts whether some of the so much silver would be used as a reward for them.
Jiang Xia pointed to the credit list and said: "In recent days, everyone has been working hard for those two runway shows, and everyone is working hard. According to the size of your contributions, I have formulated this credit list, which may not be completely fair, but I hope you can understand that there is no absolute fairness, and I have tried my best to achieve relative fairness. ”
Jiang Xia unveiled a piece of red paper at the bottom of the merit list, on which were written the name, position, and bounty.
Most people can't read, but they still know their names. Sister Ma, who was in charge of washing the girls' clothes, whispered with difficulty: "Ma Cuixiang ten taels?"
Ma Cuixiang wasn't quite sure what that meant, but the faint guess in her heart made her excited whole person tremble slightly.
Jiang Xia read at this moment: "I'll read it to you, Ma Cuixiang of the Huanyi Department, ten taels of silver, Liu Xiuhua, ten taels of silver, Aunt Wang, ten taels of silver, and Li Cuiyun."
"All right, whoever reads the name, come up to the stage and receive the money. ”
"Ten taels, ten taels of silver?" The job of the Huanyi department is to help the girls wash their clothes, or wash the sheets and bedding. The monthly salary of these eldest sisters is only 700 yuan, and the long-term salary is only 800 yuan. Now the reward of ten taels of silver is equal to more than a year's wages for them.
The eldest sisters came to the stage in a daze, and when Jiang Xia personally handed the silver to them, several eldest sisters seemed to be in a dream. Wait until Jiang Xia smiled and said, "Elder sisters, you can step down after receiving the silver." ”
A few elders woke up like a dream, and one of the eldest sisters cried with a "wow", and immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Jiang Xia and said, "Thank you Jiang Ye, thank you Jiang Ye, my old man's illness has been saved, and he has been saved."
Jiang Xia was slightly stunned, and he asked, "What's the matter?"
Jiang Xia took out a treasure note of ten taels of silver from his arms, he stuffed it into the eldest sister's hand and said, "Eldest sister, you are an employee of Qunfang Pavilion, that is, a member of Qunfang Pavilion. Your business is the business of Qunfang Pavilion, why didn't you say it earlier if someone in the family was sick? A little silver here is considered to be my personal gift, and I will go to visit my uncle with Brother Han later. ”
The eldest sister was stunned, ten taels just now, and now ten taels? Looking at the treasure money in her hand, the eldest sister cried even more, she said while crying: "Jiang Ye is really a good person, I will definitely do my best to do things for Qunfang Pavilion, even if I want to make cattle and horses for Qunfang Pavilion, I am willing."
