"See what you can do." Lao Zhu was furious and gave his son another look: "If you behave properly and do things right, will others have this opportunity?"
"Also, that boy Gu Guangxi was the one who saved your mother's life."
Lao Zhu put down the ruler in his hand and carefully comforted his cub.
"Don't say things like that just now in front of your mother and your eldest brother, otherwise I won't be able to save you if you get beaten up again."
The girl usually has a very gentle temper, but if she really gets angry.
Maybe he was just pretending to scare me, but the girl really beat him up.
And the boss, the fourth boss was captured from Goulan Yard a few years ago and received a full twenty lashes and lay in bed for half a month.
Even my biological brothers are like this, let alone the one from Jiujiang?
Zhu Di stopped talking. According to him, the boy from Jiujiang was still to blame for this matter.
Don’t live up to your expectations!
He was so upset after someone else gave him a few words of encouragement. He really shouldn't be doing this.
Just go if you go, run away when the censor comes, what are you doing waiting around?
It doesn't matter if he gets beaten himself, but he still has to confess himself.
You may even get beaten!
This brain is so stupid!
"Dad~ You said the same goes for eldest brother."
Zhu Di knelt in front of his father's knees and complained softly like a child.
"Why should those fines be divided between the inspector censor and the Metropolitan Procuratorate? The current atmosphere in the Metropolitan Procuratorate is not good."
"Everyone from top to bottom is pointing to this place where money is made and it should be a noble and honorable place."
"Now it all smells like money, and it's all led by that guy Gu Chen."
In fact, he didn't hate Gu Chen, but he knew that he could only avoid his own troubles by directing them to others.
Lao Zhu looked at him sideways: "Are you questioning your elder brother's decision?"
Even if he dotes on his son, he will not allow the younger one to offend the elder son.
Not at all!
"No, no, no." Zhu Di shook his head repeatedly: "How dare my son?"
"It's just that my eldest brother has a good heart. He has good intentions, but he is afraid that his good intentions will be turned into a means of getting rich by the people below."
"You think so?"
The look on his face that he was thinking about the country actually made Lao Zhu feel less angry.
This kid is not a freeloader, he has a family, a country, and a world at heart.
I'm afraid it's the kid from Jiujiang who can't stand the temptation at his young age.
Well, it’s not entirely the fourth child’s fault.
"I'm sorry you don't dare either."
Lao Zhu crossed his legs and began to explain in a warm voice why he did this.
"Your elder brother said that the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate often travels on business trips."
"Those officials in the Ministry of Revenue are keeping their money secret."
"Every time someone from the Metropolitan Procuratorate comes back from a business trip, they always deduct some money from them."
"The salary of a seventh-grade official is not high. It is not good to advance the money first and then be deducted. However, the way of the Ministry of Revenue is also good. It is not good to be harsh."
"Anyway, this move will punish some officials with bad conduct."
"Not taking money from the accounts of the Ministry of Revenue can also make life easier for the lower censors."
"Gu Guangxi didn't do anything wrong, and your eldest brother didn't make a wrong decision either."
Of course, he didn't know that Gu Chen deliberately lured you into a trap.
But so what?
After all, he didn't force people to drink wine and then arrest them for blackmail, right?
Since he didn't, he didn't care about such innocuous things.
"Oh~ I see, this is a really good decision, brother."
King Yan immediately praised his eldest brother, and then rubbed Lao Zhu's shoulders and legs.
"Dad, I heard that you have to deal with more than two hundred things every day. It's really hard. My son knows his mistake and will never dare to do it again."
"Don't be angry with your son, okay?"
Lao Zhu already felt sorry for his son, so he was not ready to scold him anymore when he saw this.
But I still felt a little embarrassed, so I had to go back to my sister for comfort.
Empress Ma, who learned about this, said: "...Your Majesty, you are the one who took the blame first, so you naturally feel embarrassed. What can I do?"
Anyway, this face has been lost in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and you can’t pick it up again, and you can’t pinch it anymore.
Admit it, who told them to meet these two idiots, Lao Si and Jiujiang?
Lao Zhu kept his word. After more than half a month, he gave Xiao Li a full sixty strokes in the name of not studying hard and skipping classes.
The miserable howling sound was so loud that the entire imperial city heard it.
Duke Cao's Mansion.
"Be gentle, it hurts~"
Li Jinglong lay on the bed, crying while the maid applied medicine to him.
"That bastard named Gu, he'd better pray that he doesn't fall into my hands, otherwise... otherwise I'll give him a hundred slaps..."
It hurts him so much!
We are all men, can’t we understand each other?
"Jiujiang, don't say that." Xu Zengshou happened to come to see him today. Hearing this, he said: "Master Gu, he is actually a good official."
"It's obviously your fault, so why are you blaming others?"
Tutors from the Xu family would never go to that kind of place.
"Hey, Zengshou, where are you standing?"
Li Jinglong looked at him unhappily and said angrily: "You just went on a foreign business trip with him, so why are you so biased towards him that you even forgot about your childhood friend?"
"Just wait and see, I have to find a way to deal with him."
Otherwise, he would not be able to swallow this breath!
"I advise you to save it." Xu Zengshou patted his shoulder and whispered: "The envoy to Japan has returned. I don't know what he said. Your Majesty is in a troubled mood. Please don't cause trouble."
"Also, in a few months, we all have to go to Peiping to accompany King Yan in sweeping the troops in Beitun. If you cause trouble again, be careful and you won't be able to go to Peiping."
When children grow up, they always want to leave their parents and fly independently.
Li Jinglong was no exception. After hearing this, he had to temporarily put aside the idea of seeking revenge.
"I don't know, what did Japan say to make my uncle so angry?"
…
Fengtian Temple.
Lao Zhu walked back and forth in the hall. The Ministers of the Ministry of Husbandry, the Ministry of War, and the censors all came. Gu Chen was also called over.
When Zhu Biao saw that everyone was here, he pointed at Zhao Zhidao, the envoy who had just returned.
"you say."
Zhao Zhi has been to Japan many times since the third year of Hongwu to urge them to exterminate Japanese pirates and pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty.
But it's of no use.
He held up his hands with some shame and said, "When I went to Japan this time, I still didn't see their emperor. I only saw the son of Prince Huairiang."
"The son of Prince Huaira told me that at this time, Japan is exhausted due to Ashikaga Takauji's rebellion."
"It's true that we can't spare the energy to exterminate the Japanese pirates."
"If China really wants to fight, they can only fight with all their strength."
After that, he looked at the emperor and the prince again, and had no choice but to continue speaking.
"He also said that Japan is the minister and son of God, not anyone else's minister, so I ask Heaven not to send envoys there in the future."
"Snapped!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lao Zhu couldn't help but smash the tea cup.
"Japan is just a small country. How dare you speak so harshly to China? What do you think you are?"
"What do you think we should do about this matter? Should we fight or not fight?"
He has now built a shipping department and a series of things such as commercial taxes are half ready.
All is ready except for the opportunity.
Then you told him that he didn’t have to dream about getting rich?
is it possible?
