You are such a dog!
Lao Zhu looked in Zheng Xiong's direction with an inexplicable emotion.
It was so good that it ended like this. If anything is found out in the future, it will be found out. Anyway, the matter is over and no one will take it seriously.
In the end, you still came to support the fire. Seeing their attitude of not giving up until they achieved their goals, you were in a bit of trouble.
In short, he has done what he needs to say and do. He is also on the same front as Zheng Xiong. Lao Zhu can only express his partiality and end the matter as soon as possible.
"Okay, let's leave this matter alone. Zheng Xiong is still young. If there are any mistakes, you can point them out in time. There is no need to be so serious."
"We confronted him in court, and I also asked Mao Xiang to search it. You all know the result."
"If you don't believe Zheng Xiong, then you can't believe us! That's it."
"As for Zheng Xiong's arrest of gamblers, it benefits the country and the people and should be rewarded."
"After I made you the Medical Marquis, I haven't prepared a palace for you yet! I will give you the palace of the original Champion Marquis. You can go back and pack up and move in."
"Don't feel resentful. Everyone is doing this for your own good. I hope you don't go astray."
"Be generous and don't be angry. Do you hear me?"
Like a parent's earnest instruction to the younger generation, Lao Zhu's words may still be a bit touching in the eyes of those who don't know.
However, Zheng Xiong understood that he had shouldered such a big blame and had been ripped off by Lao Zhu. This was his compensation.
As for being so kind, it was just to avoid being traced to myself, and the small treasury would not be protected.
However, Lao Zhu has spoken, Zheng Xiong can only accept it, and must not go against Lao Zhu.
"Yes, Your Majesty, please bear this in mind."
Although Lao Zhu's words made Zheng Xiong bow his head, the group of people working against Zheng Xiong frowned, obviously not satisfied with the result.
However, Lao Zhu has already shown his partiality. If he continues, he will not make any sense, so he can only stop.
However, those who were interested swore in their hearts that they would find evidence and teach Zheng Xiong a lesson.
Although this matter just passed and the two incidents were easily resolved by Zheng Xiong, Zheng Xiong made many mistakes and suffered heavy losses in the gambling house. These people still did not intend to let Zheng Xiong go.
"Your Majesty, Zheng Xiong can handle the first two matters, and there is no evidence, so you can put them aside."
"But Zheng Xiong disrespected filial piety and contradicted his mother."
"The sage said: Only by cultivating one's moral character and harmonizing one's family can one govern the country and bring peace to the world."
"But Zheng Xiong's family didn't get along well. After he came back from Yanmen and became the prefect, he had many conflicts with his mother. As a son of a human being, this shouldn't be the case."
"For such an ungrateful person to serve as governor, it may not be beneficial to the country. I hope your majesty will give it more consideration."
Hearing this, Lao Zhu's eyes became a little harsh. The Ming Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety.
What Zheng Xiong did has touched the foundation of the country, but he cannot treat it with common sense.
Since time immemorial, there have always been people who abused or abandoned their foster parents.
In response to this situation, the Ming Law stipulates that anyone who is unfilial or abandons his or her parents will be punished with eighty large sticks.
Those who abuse their parents are punishable by death.
Those who falsely accuse or insult their parents are punished by death or hanging.
So, what kind of person is considered unfilial to his parents?
According to relevant historical records of the Ming Dynasty, the following behaviors are all manifestations of unfilial piety to parents.
1. Disobey parents’ instructions and contradict parents;
2. I have a lot of food and fish, but my parents live a simple life;
3. I wear fine silk, but my parents wear tattered cotton;
4. You can go out by yourself in a sedan chair or on a horse, but your parents can only walk;
5. Only care about your own enjoyment and ignore the hard work of your parents.
Maybe Zheng Xiong had his own reasons, but in Lao Zhu's eyes, it was a big mistake and Lao Zhu couldn't help but treat it with caution.
"Zheng Xiong, is what the courtier said true?"
It's rare to see such a stern expression on Lao Zhu's face. Zheng Xiong was a little proud at first.
His face also changed, becoming a little hairy.
Think about the past between yourself and Jia.
After coming back, I really didn't give much face to Mrs. Jia. As for Jia's love of showing off, I can just say that it's not appropriate to point fingers at the government office, and I'm not used to it, but no matter what, it didn't make the family uneasy. .
As his family's hope, Jia was not his obstacle, and he also gave him enough respect. He talked about the matter afterwards, and his relationship with Jia was not on the same level.
You can say that you are at fault, but you cannot say that you don't respect others at all. Everything happens for a reason.
Zheng Xiong had never thought of being exposed now and making a fuss about it.
Many fathers and sons turned against each other because of money in later generations.
And it is completely restricted by one's own moral level, and there is not much support from legal provisions. At most, it is a support relationship.
It is impossible to support the system of filial piety with such strict laws as Lao Zhu.
But now it has become a problem before Zheng Xiong.
"Your Majesty, I don't know what is filial or unfilial, but I don't know if the family is uneasy, and the relationship between Wei Chen and my mother has not reached the point of tension."
"What's going on in this matter? Please let your Majesty rule."
He didn't know whether he was filial or not. Lao Zhu was speechless with a kind of minister.
Lao Zhu values his family relationships the most, and has the most say in whether he is filial or not.
Among the ministers, none of them talk about their personal moral standards. Their theories are extremely rich, and their personal ethics are not too bad. .
For people like Zheng Xiong, who can't even talk about it, the relationship in the family is not at the point of tension. From another perspective, it is a sign of disharmony.
Before Lao Zhu could say anything, someone from the audience immediately stood up.
"Your Majesty, what Zheng Xiong said is quite guilty, but Wei Chen's wife has experienced it herself."
"Weichen's wife and Zheng's mother, Jia, once went to the government office together, but Zheng Xiong did not offer to treat her well, but did not give his mother any face, and kicked her out of the government office. In terms of filial piety, Zheng Xiong is really unfilial. "
Zheng Xiong took a look and saw that he was someone he didn't recognize, but he could relate to it by association.
Mrs. Liu was the only one who had been to the government office and was with the Jia family, and Zheng Xiong was deeply impressed.
Mrs. Liu is a housewife, so it is obvious that this person is the servant Liu Qian.
Although I knew who was coming, I really had nothing to say about being unfilial in this matter.
After hearing this, Lao Zhu asked Zheng Xiongdao in a deep voice.
"Zheng Xiong, did you hear what I just said? What did you say?"
"I have nothing to say, but my mother came to the government office for a reason."
"This must be Mr. Liu. I asked my wife to accompany my mother to the government office that day for your younger brother's sake!"
"The matter involves a gambling house, but my wife came to intercede with my mother."
"Gonggong, I enforce the law impartially and cannot care about my mother's face. Privately, I don't want my mother to be involved in this matter due to personal affairs, so I don't give my mother face."
"If you are unfilial, you will be punished by me."
"But Mr. Liu, I wonder if you can give me an explanation. What's the purpose of asking Madam to come forward and let my mother accuse a humble minister of bending the law for personal gain?"
This matter cannot be cleared up. I can only tell my own reasons and let Lao Zhu make the decision.
But you are not someone to be bullied. Now that you have jumped out, don't think about it.
