After walking out of the Meridian Gate, some officials knelt down when they saw Zhu Yunwen.
Zhu Yunwen waved his hand, signaling them to go back to work, and then led Gu Sanshen towards Tongji Gate.
"I don't understand."
Gu Sanshen couldn't figure out Zhu Yunwen's intention for the arrangement, so he couldn't help but speak out.
Zhu Yunwen looked at the city gate in the distance and said with a smile: "In my opinion, Zhu Youhuan is in the capital, and his confidante may not dare to come. It is possible to let him go back to Kaifeng."
"From the current point of view, those two women are probably just dolls controlled by the people behind the scenes. It is impossible for dolls to move around..."
Gu Sanshen reminded.
Zhu Yunwen shook his head and said, "You don't understand women."
Judging from Zhu Youhuo's actions, his most fundamental motivation for taking the risk to expose King Zhou's crimes was to win the "King of Zhou" with "merit" and give Miss Mo'er an upright status.
During the period of confinement in the capital, Zhu Youyi could be said to be obsessed with longing. Zhu Yunwen did not think that Miss Mo'er would be indifferent to such a loving master.
Unless, she has never been sentimental towards Zhu Youxuan.
Take a gamble.
Just bet that a woman is willing to let go of control and be with someone who can protect her.
Even if you lose the bet, it doesn't matter.
"The King of Zhou is dead, and his bodyguards and officials have all been withdrawn. There is no threat in arranging for Zhu Youxuan to return to Kaifeng. What's more, Qitai and Jing Qing are both in Kaifeng. These two people have no good impressions of Zhu Youxuan, so they will naturally use their intentions. Keep an eye on him, once he makes a mistake, the court will definitely hear about it. It's just the movements in Prince Zhou's palace that require long-term monitoring by the Security Bureau."
Zhu Yunwen stopped.
After Dingyuan emerged from the White Lotus Rebellion, a shadow appeared in front of Zhu Yunwen. He could not see or touch it. Even after several confrontations with the Kaifeng Mansion, no clues could be found.
From beginning to end, he seemed to be one step behind.
"Is there anything strange happening to those people in the capital?"
Zhu Yunwen asked.
Gu Sanshen stood sideways to block the wind and said: "No matter whether it is the vassal prince or the prince's son, there is not much movement. It's just that Xu Zengshou is very close to Li Zengzhi, Zhu Gaoxu and others, and they go to the Qinhuai River together from time to time."
"Oh, these three people?"
The corners of Zhu Yunwen's mouth moved slightly.
plum
Zengzhi is the younger brother of Li Jinglong, Xu Zengshou is the younger brother of Xu Huizu, and Zhu Gaoxu is the son of Zhu Di. Behind them are two princes and a king of Yan.
According to historical records, Li Zengzhi had evil intentions, Xu Zengshou was a complete traitor, and Zhu Gaoxu was another rebel...
These three people are really the same.
"I remember that Zhu Gaoxu was studying in the Imperial College. Why, he dropped out of school?"
Zhu Yunwen asked.
When Gu Sanshen heard this question, he smiled easily and replied: "Your Majesty, he was kicked out of the Imperial Academy by Yang Shiqi's wine sacrifice..."
"Kicked out?"
Zhu Yunwen raised his eyebrows.
Gu Sanshen nodded and explained: "After the Lantern Festival, the Imperial College students submitted their homework. Zhu Gaoxu not only failed to submit his homework, but also failed the exam last winter. In addition, he had bad records and never paid attention to his studies, so he was expelled from the Imperial College. I heard that Yang Shiqi also Those who set new rules, do not take their studies seriously, and repeatedly violate the regulations of the Imperial College will be expelled from the Imperial College."
Zhu Yunwen laughed loudly. A sacrificial wine dared to attack the prince. It seemed that Yang Shiqi's bones were hard enough.
Exiting Tongjimen, there is a straight concrete road that stretches into the distance.
On the road, businessmen and travelers were rushing back and forth, making it very lively. Even the Fangu Platform not far away has become a real small town.
"Go find Li Laosan and Li Jiu."
Zhu Yunwen arranged.
Li Laosan was inspecting the newly arrived cement on the ship. Hearing Zhu Yunwen's summons, he quickly ran over with his men.
Zhu Yunwen stopped Li Laosan from saluting and asked, "Where is Li Jiu?"
"Back to the emperor, Li Jiu should be supervising the work ten miles away at this time. The inventory of concrete road materials has reached its peak. It is a good time for construction. We plan to arrange manpower to construct the work at both ends from Suzhou and Hangzhou at the same time, so as to shorten the time. Construction period.”
Li Laosan seemed to be a completely different person, and he was even more excited when talking about the concrete project.
Zhu Yunwen stepped on the concrete road, looked at Li Laosan and the workers behind him, and said: "Since he is far away, don't disturb him. I came here today to ask you about your future plans. Come on, let's talk in the teahouse. .”
The teahouse has a few tables reserved.
Li Laosan and others sat around. After Zhu Yunwen looked at everyone, he smiled and said, "Tell me, spring is here now. What are your plans? Do you want to stay in Beijing?"
Teacher, or go back to Huaiyuan to farm? "
The floods in Huaiyuan have receded, and it is time to return home for spring plowing. If we delay for more than a month, we will miss the farming season.
Li Laosan and others were all smiling, but suddenly they froze.
This problem can be said to be the biggest problem faced by all disaster victims in Beijing.
Li Laosan is also worried. If it is left to any time in the past and the flood subsides, he will naturally go home and continue farming. There is no negotiation at all. Who wants to stay in a foreign country?
But it’s different now!
At the moment, he is a small foreman of concrete road construction, and he is either an official of the Ministry of Industry or the emperor. Although he has no power, he is in charge of more than 400 people, which is much better than the county magistrate.
Besides, if you stay in the capital and get a salary, your son wants to pursue an official career, and now he is sitting in the Imperial Academy to listen. If he has to go back to Huaiyuan to farm, then he will have no prospects, and his son will not be able to get around...
But people always have to have a family and roots.
My father, grandfather, and great-great-grandfather were all buried in Huaiyuan, and no one went back. During the holidays, no one even visited the grave. Isn't it extremely unfilial?
What if some blind person digs up the ancestral graves and reunites with them in the future, how will they explain it to the older generation?
Besides, the household registrations of myself and others are still in Huaiyuan and other places. They have no household registration in the capital. They are just "refugees". They have been staying in the capital. Can they be accepted as "refugees"?
"Your Majesty, I want to stay."
Li Laosan still had some hesitation in his eyes, but he still insisted: "I want to stay here to build concrete roads."
"what about you?"
Zhu Yunwen looked at the others.
Some people expressed their willingness to stay, but more people lowered their heads and did not dare to speak.
Zhu Yunwen looked at the people beside him and said seriously: "I know you are in trouble. On the one hand, the income from the capital is so big that one year is equivalent to three years of farming. On the other hand, you are nostalgic for your homeland and homesick. No matter how you choose, I will not embarrass you. . Just - I hope you can think clearly..."
"Are we making choices for ourselves or for future generations? It's hard to leave our homeland, just because our roots are there. When our ancestors also drifted away, they had the courage to take root in one place. Don't we still have the courage of our ancestors? Stay and create a new place. Heaven and earth, wouldn’t it be better to leave a family legacy for future generations?”
