Chapter 313: Old Zhu on Filial Piety
Seeing the tiger and the tiger walking in, it was an old man in good spirits, and everyone couldn't help but stay in place.
The nobles in the capital are everywhere, not to mention that this old man is still full of majesty,
Fu Ren followed up, looked around at everyone and said coldly,
"When you see Hong Wuye, you still don't know how to kneel and salute?!"
Fu Ren's eyes were narrow, his shoulders were broad, his waist was narrow, and he stood aside in a military uniform and sword, and the words he said instantly shook everyone's hearts like five thunderbolts.
This, this is Hong Wuye?! And so it should be! If it weren't for Hong Wuye, who could have such coercion?!
A group of filial piety fell to the ground one after another, and said in a trembling voice,
"See Your Majesty!"
These filial piety are carefully selected pure filial piety people, for filial piety people, Zhu Yuanzhang has always looked up to them,
However, Zhu Yuanzhang really doesn't like to listen to these words of filial piety, which is why there is this scene now.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked around at everyone expressionlessly and asked,
"What's the surname Hu, which one?"
"Your Majesty . . . Grass people Juan Ming see Your Majesty..."
In the filial piety of bowing, a young man with a square face and thick eyebrows raised his head,
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at this person, his frowning brows couldn't help but relax a lot, Lao Zhu saw through this person at a glance,
Hu Anming, who is the most angry at this party, should not be a person who plays with tongues and sow discord, but feels that Zheng Ping is not worthy of filial piety from the bottom of his heart.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang's voice was still slightly cold, and he asked,
"Why do you think Zheng Ping is not filial?"
Hu Anming was stunned, and Fu Ren shouted,
"Say whatever you want!"
Hu Anming spoke,
"Tell Your Majesty that Zheng Ping did not support his mother, nor did he cause his mother to drown himself at home. How do the grass people think that Zheng Ping should not be filial! ”
Fu Ren glanced at Hu Anming with some surprise, and said secretly in his heart,
Where did this come from?
Obviously, His Majesty is inclined to Zheng Ping, but this Hu Anming is not bent, he can say whatever he wants, he doesn't look down on Zheng Ping in his heart, so he just says it, even in front of Hong Wuye.
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help laughing, looked at Hu Anming and said,
"You're a real man!"
Fu Ren lowered his head, not to mention this Hu Anming's good luck, whether it is his appearance or words, he has obtained His Majesty's fate,
Hu Anming said loudly,
"The grass people don't dare to talk nonsense in front of His Majesty!"
"Hehe," Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and asked, "Then do you think we are not filial people?" ”
When Hu Anming heard this, he poured down like a basin of cold water, and he was suddenly frightened.
"Your Majesty is the most filial person, borrowing ten dares from the grass people, and the grass people don't dare to think so!"
Zhu Yuanzhang said lightly,
"Just now we think you are a person who has one thing to say, but how did it come to us, you have another set of rhetoric?
We think that we are no different from that Zheng Ping. ”
Hu Anming was stunned in place, how could His Majesty say that there was no difference between him and Zheng Ping?
Not only Hu Anming, but also the rest of the filial piety also raised their heads and looked at Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and continued,
"At that time, my father and mother were hungry all day long, and their clothes were not warm and they could not eat.
In the end, our father and mother were starved to death, isn't it also for us? I'd rather starve to death than exchange us for Yizi...
Our life is given by our parents, and we are not filial. ”
"Your Majesty, this is a mistake!"
Hu Anming was so anxious that his face was red and his ears were red, and he said loudly.
"Oh? You talk about it. ”
Zhu Yuanzhang ignored Hu Anming's daring to openly contradict himself, and asked in a voice without any ups and downs.
"Your Majesty was in the midst of a tyrannical period at the time, and he was still young, so he was excusable.
And Zheng Ping's son was born in the prosperous era of the Ming Dynasty..."
Zhu Yuanzhang raised his hand, Hu Anming hurriedly shut up, Zhu Yuanzhang swept over everyone and asked,
"That's what you think too?"
The rest of the filial piety nodding one after another.
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled, changed his head, and said,
"Get up."
The crowd stood up.
Zhu Yuanzhang walked up to Hu Anming, looked at Hu Anming's clothes, and asked,
"You look good in this outfit."
Hu Anming didn't know why His Majesty suddenly came here, but he still replied respectfully,
"Your Majesty, the elders of the grass people's family used to be officials, so the family has some surplus wealth."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, and re-watched these filial piety, most of them were well-dressed, although they were not rich and expensive, but they would definitely not be bothered by eating and drinking on weekdays.
And being shabby is only a very minority.
Zhu Yuanzhang also lost the interest in saying anything more, and suddenly felt bored, so he just left the last sentence,
"Those who are filial, the rich have no trace of their hearts, and the poor have no traces of their hearts."
After saying that, he turned around and left, and Fu Ren immediately followed.
Leaving a group of filial piety stunned on the ground and looking at each other.
After His Majesty left for a long time, everyone still couldn't believe that they had been in the same room with Hong Wuye for so long, and His Majesty seemed to have left a sentence with a deep meaning,
Hu Anming was beside him, looked at Hu Anming and asked,
"Brother Hu, what does Your Majesty mean by what he just said?"
Hu Anming didn't answer, but his eyes were complicated, he grabbed his clothes with his two hands and looked down.
"Fu Ren, do you understand?"
After Zhu Yuanzhang walked back to the palace with his hands, he suddenly asked Fu Ren, who was behind him,
"Your Majesty, Weichen understands."
"Oh? Tell me, what do you understand? ”
"Filial piety, it's very simple to say, it's nothing more than to let my father and mother eat and dress well when they are old, and not be cold and not hungry.
If it is like Weichen, his father is an important minister in the court, and his family is solid, so naturally he doesn't need to worry about this firewood and rice, just follow the class and enter filial piety.
As for what you think in your heart, whether you have a sincere filial piety, true filial piety, or something else, it doesn't matter.
This is what Your Majesty said about the rich and their deeds. ”
Zhu Yuanzhang stood still, turned to look at Fu Ren, and said with interest,
"Go on."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Like Zheng Ping, the family is already poor, and then supporting the old mother must be overstretched, if there is no big ability and big opportunity, it will inevitably be burdened by money.
Even if he wants to be filial, in addition to having a piece of filial piety, he will definitely not be able to do so well in the matter of firewood and rice, and ordinary people like Zheng Ping are the majority.
Isn't such a person filial piety?
Therefore, Your Majesty also said that the poor are filial piety, and they do not care about their hearts.
If it is about the heart and deeds, there is no perfect person in the world. ”
Zhu Yuanzhang looked up at the sky and sighed,
"You said it well, Fu Youde really gave birth to a good seed."
Fu Ren bowed his head,
"Your Majesty, it's just that Weichen doesn't know if those filial piety have understood His Majesty's good intentions."
Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and said,
"It's not the same kind of person, because of our words, we can understand each other? We don't have that much ability.
Let's go back to the palace. ”
