Chapter 116 Lü Ben Is Afraid, He Can't Leave the Fourth Brother Behind! Zhu
Chapter 116 Lu Ben is afraid and must not leave the fourth child alone! Zhu Biao entered the palace in a hurry!
"Hey, baby, baby, baby..."
A carriage drove slowly towards Jiangning, with a fat man and a thin man sitting on the carriage. The thin man drove the carriage seriously, while the fat man occupied most of the front carriage, squinting his eyes and humming a tune.
The spring breeze is proud, and it is obvious.
Zhou Lang glanced out of the corner of his eye...
Jiang Jinzhong went all the way.
His ears couldn't stand it anymore, "Sir, when are we going to Tuqiao Village to deliver books to the children?"
"tomorrow!"
Jiang Jinzhong slowly opened his eyes, sat upright, and said solemnly: "I arrived at the county government today. I want to take a good rest and recharge my batteries tomorrow. I will go to Tuqiao Village to thank Mr. Zhu."
"You don't know that at the end of the morning, Prime Minister Hu called me to the official room and what he said!"
"Hu Xiang?" Zhou Lang asked curiously: "What did Hu Xiang say to you?"
"Of course you are praising me!" Jiang Jinzhong suddenly beamed with joy. He glanced at Zhou Lang and was even more satisfied. Zhou Lang was a man who knew how to compliment, so he chose the right time to interject.
"Hu Xiang poured tea for me personally, patted me on the shoulder, and praised me with a pleasant smile."
…
"Xiang Hu also mentioned Mr. Zhu's rural community. Like His Royal Highness, he told me, your family, to fully support Mr. Zhu and make sure that Tuqiao Village's rural community is done well!"
"We want to get off to a good start!"
…
Jiang Jinzhong was still dancing and talking.
Zhou Lang already understood everything.
Fatty Jiang clearly saw the importance the imperial court attached to rural communities from the instructions of the Prince and Prime Minister Hu.
Cooperating with Mr. Zhu to improve the rural village community is another huge political achievement.
…
"Mr. Zhu is our great benefactor!" Jiang Jinzhong concluded with emotion, interrupting Zhou Lang's thoughts, "If you didn't get Mr. Zhu's guidance, you wouldn't be able to become the leader of the soap class, and you wouldn't have the chance to follow me. Going to Jinling and eating royal meals in the East Palace is something that will last a lifetime."
"The same goes for me, if it weren't for Mr. Zhu, I wouldn't have the opportunities I have now. In fact, I still know very well how much I weigh."
Zhou Lang glanced at Jiang Jinzhong in surprise, laughed secretly and said, "You have finally recognized the reality." ’
"In the past, your master, the end of being an official was the prefect. But after Mr. Zhu's guidance, I decided to readjust my goal of being an official."
Jiang Jinzhong suddenly became energetic and high-spirited.
"In the future, the lowest position among your adults will be that of Prime Minister Hu. If you keep the two and fight for one, the position of Left Prime Minister may not be impossible!"
‘I take back my previous judgment. How can I recognize the reality? It’s burning to the point where I don’t know where to go from east to west! ’ Zhou Lang’s lips twitched fiercely.
"Why don't you congratulate..."
Ta-ta-ta...
Jiang Jinzhong's dissatisfied questioning was interrupted by the sound of horse hooves ahead.
Following the sound, his surprise flashed away, and he confirmed in surprise: "I have small eyes and can't see clearly. Please help me see if the person coming on horseback is Fang Xizhi."
"yes!"
After receiving Zhou Lang's confirmation, Jiang Jinzhong struggled to his feet and stood on the shaft of the carriage. With a smile on his face, he raised his hand and greeted loudly: "Brother Xizhi..."
Fang Xiaoru came on horseback with lightning speed...
"Sir Jiang, I have important matters to do. I will apologize to you another day."
In the flying dust, Fang Xiaoru's voice floated into Jiang Jinzhong's ears, and the man was already galloping past.
"These young people who have just entered the officialdom are very impetuous and unstable." Jiang Jinzhong stretched out his hand to wipe the dust from his face and muttered: "How can you serve the prince well if you are reckless."
‘Sir, you are just older, and your official tenure is only two years more than that of Mr. Fang. ’
Zhou Lang couldn't help but laugh and curse, and asked curiously: "Sir, did Master Fang go to Tuqiao Village?"
Snapped!
Jiang Jinzhong slapped his thigh suddenly, "It must be! Fang Xizhi must represent the prince to invite Mr. Zhu to come out!"
"Fang Xizhi is so anxious. Could it be that Mr. Zhu agreed?"
"No, let's not go back to the county office and go straight to Tuqiao Village!"
…
Three poles in the sun.
Fang Xiaoru rushed back to the East Palace in a hurry.
Lu Ben and Lan Yu happened to come to the East Palace together. They were both a little surprised when they saw Fang Xiaoru's pale face and hurried steps.
Since Fang Xiaoru was going to dig out Zhu Silang's hidden secrets.
I also took a whole day off for this.
You shouldn't have come back so early.
Excluding the time spent traveling back and forth, the time spent in Tuqiao Village is only one hour!
Lan Yu shouted from a distance: "Fang Xizhi!"
Fang Xiaoru raised his head when he heard the sound. When he saw the two of them, he frowned slightly, walked over quickly, and clasped his fists, "Master Lu, General Lan, please give me some time to sort out my thoughts first. Later, I will report to the Crown Prince in person. Sir, please come and listen."
Before he finished speaking, he left Lu Ben and the two of them and left.
He had to smooth over what Zhu Silang told him before he could report it to the prince.
Just report it directly.
He simply couldn't restore all the details of the time.
It may not even be fully explained.
whispering sound!
Lan Yu snorted and mocked coldly: "Students are the most useless! If you come back so early and are still in such a mess, you're probably going to be dismissed by Zhu Silang with just one word, right?"
He went to Zhu Silang to trouble him.
Although he suffered great humiliation, he almost lost his life in Tuqiao Village.
It took more than three months to recuperate from the injury.
But in the end he had a fight with Zhu Silang.
Zhu Silang was also injured!
But Fang Xizhi, a scholar...
Hehe...
He glanced at Lu Ben with disdain and walked straight to Zhu Biao's study.
Lu Ben's lips twitched fiercely.
The look in Lan Yu's eyes when he left was too insulting!
Fang Xizhi was incompetent, what did it have to do with Lu Ben?
Just because he and Fang Xizhi were both civil servants and scholars, Lan Yu, a rough man, looked down on him?
Lu Ben walked towards Zhu Biao's study with a dark face.
The purpose of their coming to the East Palace was to find out from the prince what the emperor thought of Jiang Jinzhong after his performance in the morning court.
...
Soon, Zhu Biao also knew that Fang Xiaoru was back.
Everyone in the East Palace stared at the room Fang Xiaoru entered.
"What happened during Fang Xizhi's trip to Tuqiao Village?"
"Who knows, anyway, Fang Xizhi's face was not good."
"He has been in for an hour."
...
Squeak!
Near noon, under the curious gaze of the officials of the East Palace, the door opened.
Fang Xiaoru took a memorial, opened the door and went straight to Zhu Biao's study.
...
Study.
Lan Yu and Lu Ben sat in silence with dark faces.
Lan Yu was getting impatient, and his fingers turned the lid of the teacup, making a 'squeak' noise.
Although Zhu Biao was also very curious about what happened when Fang Xiaoru went to Tuqiao Village, he did not delay his work. While waiting, he was reviewing the memorial.
At some point, hurried footsteps were heard.
Lan Yu stopped what he was doing, and turned his head with Lü Ben to look at the palace door...
Fang Xiaoru hurried in, came to the desk, bowed solemnly, and apologized first: "Zhu Silang said something, I was worried about forgetting it, and I was busy sorting it out after I came back, and I failed to report it to Your Highness in the first time. Please punish me."
Lan Yu spoke first, coldly mocking: "Fang Xizhi, are you sure you were not driven away by Zhu Silang's words? We see that you scholars are just good at talking. You went to our house yesterday, patted your chest, and swore, what did you say..."
"General Lan!" Zhu Biao frowned and raised his head, looking helpless and stopped Lan Yu.
Lan Yu always speaks like this.
Target Fang Xizhi, then target Fang Xizhi.
But he won't.
Expand the scope of attack to all scholars.
This is not to make people hate him!
When Zhu Biao spoke, Lan Yu glared at Fang Xiaoru and stopped talking, but his face became darker.
He told Fang Xizhi the details of his trip to Tuqiao Village and the great humiliation.
Originally, he thought that this man was a disciple of Song Lian and would have different gains.
Ha!
Unexpectedly, these scholars are all useless!
Fang Xiaoru was not angry, and bowed to Zhu Biao and said, "Your Highness, the reason why I came back so early is, to a certain extent, as General Lan Yu said, I was intimidated by Zhu Silang's words and rushed back in a hurry."
Tsk!
Lan Yu was amused and sneered with sarcasm.
Zhu Biao was even more curious and asked with a smile, "What did Lao Silang say to you?"
"Local villages!"
Fang Xiaoru's face was solemn, and his tone was a little scared, "Zhu Silang said that if all the civil and military officials in the court support local villages, the court must be cautious!"
"He also said: If the court introduces gentry into his local villages, if it cannot stop it, he will crash into the Hongwu Gate and die!"
'Introduce gentry! Hu Weiyong designed to introduce gentry into the rural villages! ’
Lü Ben’s pupils shrank suddenly.
Zhu Biao frowned slightly, his face solemn and urged: "Tell me in detail!"
All the civil and military officials in the court supported it, but the fourth brother reminded them to be careful, which was completely contrary to their ideas.
And the fourth brother even said that he would crash into the gate of Hongwu.
The character of the fourth brother, saying such a cruel word, means that the introduction of gentry into the rural villages is very harmful.
Fang Xiaoru immediately opened the memorial.
…
"The minister asked: What's wrong with the introduction of gentry into the rural villages? The gentry will bring talents, oxen, tools to the people..."
…
"Zhu Silang replied with a sharp sneer: If he is a gentry, there are many ways to let the waiter who owns shares sell his shares."
"All dividends are used for investment every year, and no dividends are given to the people..."
…
Fang Xiaoru sorted out his conversation with Zhu Di in the form of questions and answers without missing a word.
Lü Benyin clenched his hands tightly in his wide sleeves.
Zhu Silang had already thought of the sinister and vicious plan that Hu Weiyong had come up with!
Lan Yu no longer had the resentment and dissatisfaction he had just had. He sat upright with a frown on his face.
Zhu Biao's face was even more solemn.
…
"Zhu Silang said again: He has a faster and more effective way…Locally, the gentry who control the rural villages and communities, regardless of the actual harvest, shout about a bumper harvest every year…"
"Officials in the court took the opportunity to advise His Majesty to increase the land tax…"
"The gentry do not need to bear the high land tax. Even if they do, the gentry's family can afford it, and the waiters who own shares will be crushed by the high land tax."
…
"In the past, it was selling land, and in the rural villages and communities, it is selling shares."
…
"In the end, the rural villages and communities exist in name only, and will become gentry, controlling a group of "livestock slaves" to farm the land."
"Such a group of gentry, the court must succumb to them, if not, they will change the emperor!"
Pop!
Lv Ben's hand shook violently, and the teacup fell to the ground and broke.
Several people looked at Lv Ben together.
"Your Majesty, I...I have disobeyed you." Lu Ben ignored the tea soup and tea leaves on his clothes. He knelt down in a panic and said loudly and sincerely: "Your Highness, from this excerpt, we can already see how powerful Zhu Silang is. Your Highness Even if I don’t want to harm Zhu Silang, I still hope that His Highness will be wary of this person!”
Hu Weiyong's brain is fast enough, his political skills are vicious and cunning enough, and he is powerful enough!
But Zhu Silang is stronger than him!
Not only do you think what Hu Weiyong thinks, but you can also think about things that Hu Weiyong never thought of!
Lan Yu withdrew her eyes, this time there was no mocking or disdain in her eyes.
He finally understood why Fang Xiaoru was in such a mess when he came back.
Zhu Silang is not only powerful in martial arts.
His political ability is also very powerful!
In the past, although Lu Ben was hostile to Zhu Silang, he actually looked down on Zhu Silang at all and compared Zhu Silang to a cricket in the field. But look at this moment...
I can’t even cover up my fear and fear!
Zhu Biao glanced at Lu Ben, stood up, and said with a serious expression: "What Xizhi just said is not allowed to be publicized to the outside world!"
After saying this, he looked at Fang Xiaoru and said, "Xizhi, you and I come into the palace to meet the Holy Spirit."
The various possibilities that Lao Si envisioned were too scary.
Especially the last one.
Peasants were reduced to livestock slaves and controlled by the gentry.
The court must listen to the squire. If he doesn't listen, change the emperor!
You must report to your father immediately!
Rural village cooperatives must be established, but we must not ignore Laosi and follow their optimistic expectations.
You must listen to Lao Si more.
Facts have proved that no one understands the core connotation of rural village community better than Lao Si!
Zhu Biao took Fang Xiaoru, leaving the lost Lu Ben and the dazed Lan Yu, and hurried straight to the palace...
The officials of the East Palace who were watching outside suddenly became more curious when they saw Zhu Biao and Fang Xiaoru leaving in a hurry and heading straight to the palace.
"Why did the prince bring Fang Xizhi into the palace?"
"The prince's face is still very solemn."
"What happened during Fang Xizhi's trip to Tuqiao Village?"
