Zhu Biao immediately raised his head and looked at Han Du with burning eyes.
When Han Du saw it, he immediately gave an example: "Your Highness is used to eating delicacies from mountains and seas, how can he still eat simple meals?"
Zhu Biao frowned, wondering why Han Du asked this. But he still lowered his head, thought carefully, and finally shook his head at Han Du.
Indeed, Zhu Biao thought that he couldn't do it either. Zhu Biao naturally did not have the opportunity to eat simple meals on weekdays, but when he was here at Han Du, he actually encountered Han Du eating. According to Han Du, he ate too much meat and needed to eat some of these things to relieve the greasiness.
But Zhu Biao tried it and he really couldn't eat it. Han Du did not force Zhu Biao to eat, but started eating on his own.
"That's right." Han Du sighed slightly and continued: "In the former Song Dynasty, the scholar-bureaucrats were so beautiful. They could share the world with the emperor, receive high salaries, travel in the mountains, play in the water, and even You can have sex with prostitutes. You can't punish a doctor. No matter it's corruption or bribery, no one will be punished with death. At most, they will be exiled or dismissed from office."
"Let me ask, with such a lesson learned, which scholar-official doesn't want to go back to the glorious days? Which one doesn't want to turn the Ming Dynasty into the Song Dynasty?"
Zhu Biao listened and was silent for a moment, then suddenly took a deep breath and said: "But among the gentlemen in Gu, they all said that the Song Dynasty was enlightened and even taught the king, and the king would bend over and listen to him."
Han Du sneered, "People always have their own opinions. All the teachers of emperors in the past were scholar-bureaucrats. Of course, they would spare no effort to praise them for things that were beneficial to them. His Highness thought that this kind of behavior was not the way to bend over and listen to people. Is it because he wants to make the emperor feel awe of his master through subtle influence? In the long run, if one day such an emperor encounters something that is beneficial to the scholar-bureaucrats but harmful to the country and the country, what does His Highness think he should do? choose?"
Han Du stared at Zhu Biao closely, waiting for his answer.
Zhu Biao fell into deep thought because of Han Du's words, "It is harmful to the scholar-bureaucrats but beneficial to the country and the country. How should we choose such a thing?" Zhu Biao had never encountered such a problem before. , all solved by relying on the knowledge learned and the experience imparted by my husband and father.
Worried about Han Du's current problems, he chose to put the experience taught to him by the gentlemen against Jiang Shan She Ji and let him choose.
After Zhu Biao was silent for a moment, he looked up at Han Du and said solemnly: "Even if it is harmful to the scholar-bureaucrats, as long as it is beneficial to the country and the country, Gu will do it. If there is no country and the country, where will the scholar-officials come from? "
Han Du suddenly showed a satisfied smile and gestured with his thumb towards Zhu Biao, "His Highness is indeed an extraordinary person."
Zhu Biao rolled his eyes at Han Du. Han Du's question seemed difficult to decide, but after thinking about it clearly, it was very simple. Just choose the side that is beneficial to you. Now that the former Song Dynasty has been destroyed for more than a hundred years, there are still people who still miss the past. To put it bluntly, isn't it because the former Song Dynasty was the most beneficial to the scholar-bureaucrats? Since the scholar-bureaucrats can desperately choose the side that is beneficial to them, why can't Zhu Biao choose?
"If Gu Ruo can't even distinguish the importance of this, wouldn't it mean that he has been the prince for so many years in vain?"
Han Du immediately smiled and nodded in agreement. Zhu Biao has been overseeing the country's governance for so many years, but he still has some wisdom. It seems that he is too preoccupied.
However, Zhu Biao then frowned and asked with some confusion: "But it is easy for Gu to choose, but it is difficult to solve this hidden danger! You always have too many evil ideas, is there any way? Gu can't leave this hidden danger to Let the descendants deal with it!”
Han Du smiled and said, "Then I will ask His Highness another question."
"Say it." Zhu Biao pretended to listen attentively and sat upright facing Han Du.
"During the Yuan Dynasty, did your Highness ever hear of those scholar-bureaucrats clamoring to share the world with the emperor?" Han Du said with a meaningful smile.
After Zhu Biao heard this, he was stunned. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly exclaimed: "Why is this? It stands to reason that not long after the death of the former Song Dynasty, it was the time when those scholar-bureaucrats missed the previous dynasty the most! But, why did no one dare to make such a request? "
Han Du took a sip of tea and said calmly: "Because the neck is not as hard as a steel knife!"
Seeing that Zhu Biao was stunned, Han Du continued: "Why emperors share the world with scholar-bureaucrats is actually a habitual problem. However, the former Yuan Dynasty would not be accustomed to these scholar-bureaucrats like the emperor of the former Song Dynasty. In the eyes of the former Yuan Dynasty, scholar-bureaucrats should Officials, they give salaries and fair trade. If you don't want to do it, just tell the scholar-bureaucrats to go out. If you still dare to be dissatisfied and want to share the world with the emperor, then kill them with a steel knife. Kill them until their heads are rolling, and you will dare to say this The people who said this were killed, so naturally no one would dare to have such delusions."
"Kill them all?" Zhu Biao was stunned and looked at Han Du in a daze. After a while, he came back to his senses and asked hesitantly: "How many people should be killed? Is it too cruel?"
Han Du blew into the tea and said calmly: "There is nothing cruel. People who miss the common world between scholar-bureaucrats and emperors are basically people with extremely selfish desires. One hundred of such people are corrupt officials. , killing them would not be considered unfair. But not killing them would be cruel to the people. Anyway, judging from Qian Yuan’s experience, this method is quite good, and there are no problems."
Seeing Zhu Biao's expression change, it was obvious that he still couldn't bear it. After all, these people are said to be corrupt officials, but as long as they are not truly corrupt, they do not violate the Ming Law. However, Han Du opened his mouth and killed directly, which made Zhu Biao a little uncomfortable.
When Han Du saw it, he smiled relaxedly and said, "Your Highness, there is no need to worry. In fact, the Emperor has already solved most of this problem for Your Highness. The Emperor has dealt with a lot of corrupt officials in recent years, and he has indirectly cleared up some of them." People. But I didn’t expect that there would be such people above the court.”
"You mean, Cheng Ji is this kind of person?" Zhu Biao then asked.
Han Du nodded slowly and said, "It's almost the same."
"Hmph, how can such a traitor stand proudly in the court? I will go to the palace tomorrow to ask my father to restore your title." Zhu Biao said angrily.
"No, please don't, Your Highness!" Han Du quickly reached out and grabbed Zhu Biao's arm, as if he was afraid that he would run away.
Zhu Biao let Han Du pull him, frowned and asked: "Why? Since they have ulterior motives to impeach you, isn't the impeachment of you targeting Gu? Why can't Gu enter the palace to ask for help from his father?"
Seeing that Zhu Biao didn't have the urge to stand up immediately, Han Du smiled and said, "Does His Highness think that the Emperor cannot understand things that I can see through?"
Zhu Biao frowned slightly. He admired his father very much. The one he admired most in his heart was his father, even Han Du was inferior to him. As Han Du reminded, since Han Du can understand things, how can his father not understand them?
But since the father knew the sinister intentions of those people, why did he let Han Du seize the title? In this way, wouldn't it be in line with those people's wishes?
"You, you mean..." An idea flashed in Zhu Biao's mind, and he suddenly thought of it.
Han Du smiled and nodded, "At first, I didn't understand why the emperor would seize my title without mercy. But after listening to His Highness's words, I understood. His Highness's guess was correct. The Emperor wanted exactly that. Lure the snake out of its hole. Cheng Ji is just a seventh-grade censor and a pawn. There must be someone more powerful than him above the court. Such people hide in the court, just like poisonous snakes. You You don't know when he will jump out and bite you. If the emperor wants these people to jump out on his own initiative, the best way is to follow their wishes and take away me, the Marquis. The title of Marquis of Chuan Guo is enough for They should be celebrating together."
Han Du said with a smile. He was not sad at all about being deprived of his title. Instead, he looked like he was ready to watch the show.
"Huh!" After finally understanding what was going on, Zhu Biao let out a long breath. At the same time, I couldn't help but admire my father. There was such a deep intention hidden in a sudden title seizure. If Han Du hadn't had unique vision, he might not have known what was going on until everything was over. And if he hadn't told Han Du what happened in the court, Han Du might not have been able to think of it.
Zhu Biao couldn't help but look at Han Du twice, and said apologetically: "But this has wronged you and caused you to lose your title. But don't worry, I will definitely make it up to you in the future."
When Han Du saw Zhu Biao mentioning this again, he had no choice but to say again: "Your Highness, don't worry, I'm really fine. To be honest, I prefer going to the academy to teach students in the academy rather than getting a title or being an official."
"Yes, how can a momentary glory be compared to knowledge that will shine through the ages? Hahaha..." Seeing that Han Du was really not worried, Zhu Biao immediately laughed in agreement.
Listening to Zhu Biao's words, Han Du's heart actually moved slightly, and he felt that he should really spend more time on the academy. Since he established the academy, he initially focused on the academy, but as things got more complicated, he abandoned the academy.
Looking back now, I have done too little for the academy. Perhaps, taking advantage of the fact that I have nothing to do now and have no job, it might not be a bad thing to go to the academy and teach peacefully.
Seeing the change in Han Du's expression, Zhu Biao asked blankly: "You can't tell the truth, are you? Do you really want to go to the academy to teach?"
Han Du smiled and spread his hands and said, "Why not? While I still have time, there is nothing wrong with teaching in the academy."
