The old man's children therefore looked at Zhu Cican, Zhu Xieyuan and others, and spoke quite confidently.
"Since you knocked someone down, you can't deny it. You have to go to the hospital with us and pay my father's medical expenses!"
"That's right, you can't leave, you have to pay!"
Zhu Cican therefore replied: "I didn't knock him down. I saw the old man falling to the ground, so I helped him up."
"You are brave!"
At this time, Zhu Cican's flag officer Xu Yuqing couldn't help but said something, and was about to reprimand these people for being unruly people.
But Chen Weisong stopped Xu Yuqing: "Wait a minute, Mr. Xu Qi, don't be confused. You can't bully the old man just because you are eager to protect the Lord, and ruin His Highness's kindness and forgiveness!"
Hearing what Chen Weisong said, Zhu Cican also felt that it was reasonable, so he sighed: "It doesn't matter, the old and the old are like the old, and the young and the young are like the young. This is what the sage taught! If I am not lenient, Who is willing to show mercy?"
With that said, Zhu Cican asked the old man's children: "How much do you want me to pay?"
The girls here were greatly surprised after hearing this. They didn't expect to meet such an easy persimmon.
The soldiers and people watching on the sidelines were also greatly surprised.
"I have never seen such a honest and pedantic rich young man!"
"It is because of such kind-hearted people who are unwilling to care about others that these bad guys who dare to deceive others' sympathy and extort money are so rampant!"
"It's really jaw-dropping. Isn't this person a fool?"
Therefore, the scholars and people watching on the side started talking a lot.
"Pay one hundred yuan!"
The old man's daughter asked for a price first.
"No, two hundred yuan!"
The old man's son continued to reply.
"It's still five hundred! In case I need to see a doctor in the future."
"That's six hundred. My boss hasn't even mentioned his wife yet."
And the old man hurriedly said: "And my coffin book!"
The old man and his children obviously regarded Zhu Cican as a cash cow and tried their best to increase the price.
Xu Yuqing, the flag officer in charge of guarding Zhu Cican, saw this and roared again: "You bunch of unruly people! Don't you know that the king's law is ruthless?!"
"Yu Qing! Don't be rude!"
Zhu Cican scolded him at this time.
Xu Yuqing was quite unwilling: "Your Highness, they are too!"
"Shut up! How can those in power care about the people? They put the people first and treat the people with kindness. They themselves need to suffer some grievances. How can they only be happy for themselves and ignore the suffering of the people?"
As Zhu Cican spoke, he asked the old man in a friendly manner: "Old man, how about I compensate you one thousand yuan of silver coins?"
After hearing this, the old man looked at his children in shock.
His children were also shocked. They did not expect that the other party would pay such a large sum of money.
You know, in this era, five hundred silver coins is considered a huge sum of money.
Especially in the eyes of this old man and his children.
Now Zhu Cican's compensation of one thousand silver coins directly exceeded the maximum threshold of their greed, so they only nodded and forgot to take advantage of the fact that the other party was willing to be slaughtered and seemed to be very fat, so they continued to blackmail him.
"Yu Qing, give them a thousand yuan in silver notes."
Zhu Cican therefore ordered.
"Your Highness! This!"
Xu Yuqing was a little reluctant.
"Give me money!"
Helpless, Zhu Cican persisted as before.
"yes!"
In the end, Xu Yuqing had no choice but to give the old man's son a certificate from the Royal Capital Bank established by Zhu Youxiao with royal capital in order to have enough money to support the royal family's children.
The old man and his children happily took it.
"Hey! This guy has too much money to spend!"
"But people are so kind!"
"Perhaps the wealthy people think differently from us. They no longer care about these things and are broad-minded."
"Having said that, I almost want to blackmail him!"
"Isn't he indulging in these evil people?!"
When the scholars and the people saw this, they all started talking.
Some were surprised by Zhu Cican's behavior, some were moved by Zhu Cican's merciful behavior, and even some were angry at Zhu Cican's behavior.
Zhu Xieyuan was surprised for a moment.
He didn't expect that the second son of the emperor would be so big-hearted. When he was wronged like this, and the person who made him wronged was an ordinary civilian, he could still remain calm and even endure it. The state of self-driving.
This made Zhu Xieyuan more fond of the second son of the emperor.
He admitted that through previous conversations with Zhu Cican, the second son of the emperor, he could see that the second son of the emperor was not a very smart or politically aware person, and even had a relatively simple understanding of human nature.
But Zhu Xieyuan had to admit that he still liked Zhu Cican's temperament.
Having spent a long time with a smart but ruthless and powerful emperor like Zhu Youxiao, he is now willing to imagine that if the monarch of the Ming Dynasty is a king like the second son in the future, he, a veteran minister who has made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty, is afraid that You can be more comfortable without having to worry about whether the emperor will suddenly be unhappy with you one day and want to do something to you.
Chen Weisong also had a good impression of Zhu Cican's behavior at this moment, and felt that Zhu Cican was really good-natured and truly benevolent.
Chen Weisong even decided to take the emperor's second son's kindness to a higher level, so that he could promote the emperor's second son in the future, so he advised Zhu Cican:
"Your Highness! Since the ancient times, everyone has governed the world with filial piety and behaved filial piety. Naturally, you should respect the elders! Since Your Highness wants to practice the style of a benevolent person and show filial piety, you should not only satisfy his needs, but should also make every effort to fulfill his needs. Your Majesty, your Majesty, might as well carry the old man to seek medical treatment, and wait until we see that he is not seriously injured before we leave. This will be considered as a benevolent person!"
"No! Our palace".
Xu Yuqing was about to say that his Royal Highness was considered a nobleman, and even if he wanted to be kind to the people, there was no need to go to the extent of having to carry him to the doctor or fulfill his filial piety for his children.
But at this time, Zhu Cican had already nodded, and resolutely bent down to face the old man, smiling and saying: "Old man, let me carry you to the doctor."
The old man was surprised.
But the old man's children did not see this scene now, because they were looking at the banknotes excitedly.
The old man obviously wanted to seek medical treatment and did not want to delay his injury, so he climbed on Zhu Cican's back.
Zhu Cican also carried the old man to the hospital.
His children did not follow him.
However, at this time, Zhu Ciwei, who was the censor of Jiangnan Province, happened to be patrolling here, and when he saw Zhu Cican, he shouted: "Second brother! Why are you here, and why are you carrying an old man on your back?"
When the old man saw Zhu Ciwei wearing official uniform, he was so frightened that he lost his mind. He quickly got off the second prince's back, knelt on the ground and said, "My Lord, please forgive me! My Lord, please spare my life! I didn't expect this brother to be so kind!" I fell to the ground and then deliberately grabbed him, but instead of being angry, he directly demanded to pay me a thousand yuan and even carried me to the doctor!"
Common people in this era, especially older people, are still afraid of the government.
Therefore, when the old man saw Zhu Ciwei appearing with many officers and soldiers, he told the truth, fearing to offend the officials in front of him.
Zhu Ciwei's face turned cold after hearing this.
