Zhu Yunxi said solemnly: "His name is Ran Zhong."
"Ran Zhong?"
When Zhu Gaochi heard this unfamiliar name, his eyes widened slightly under the squeeze of his eyelids, and he couldn't remember which kind of immortal this was.
Zhu Yunxi stood up, walked to the window, looked at the vast starry sky, and said, "One of Confucius's seventy-two sages is named Ran Qiu."
"Ah, you mean that Second Master Ran is a descendant of Ran Qiu?"
Zhu Gaochi was extremely surprised.
Ran Qiu, one of Confucius's most proud disciples, was not only versatile and powerful in political affairs, but also a brave and good warrior. He once personally charged into battle and was a famous financial manager. He was the one who reformed Ji's land tax. leading.
It's just that history has been full of ups and downs. By the Ming Dynasty, only the Confucian family of Yanshenggong was active in the political arena, and there was not much movement in Fushengyanhui's family, not to mention the descendants of the other seventy-one sages. Among the people, they disappeared.
"This man should be given an official position!"
Zhu Gaochi knew the importance of these people to the Ming Dynasty. If the glory of the Confucius era could be restored, and one and a half sages emerged, the entire Ming Dynasty would be brilliant!
Zhu Yunxi agreed with Zhu Gaochi's view, but said with some embarrassment: "Having said that, we are prison students now, so it's hard for us to comment."
Zhu Gaochi walked towards the door. Because his legs and feet were a little lame, the flesh on his body always trembled: "Let's go and find the sacrificial wine."
Zhu Yunxi hurriedly stepped forward to hold him back and said, "It's already midnight, and the sacrificial wine has already stopped."
Zhu Gaochi patted his chest and said with a serious face: "How can we delay the matter of talents? It is the time for the imperial court to recruit people. You don't know that many of your classmates have not yet graduated from school and have been transferred to Beizhili and other places. If Wouldn't it be more powerful if we could summon Ran Zhong earlier?"
Zhu Yunxi admired Zhu Gaochi. Although this man was bloated and had weak legs, he had a kind heart and took state affairs as his top priority. It was a pity that such a talent could only be buried in the Imperial College.
Zongren Mansion.
The two guards dragged Zhu Youyi again, and then without saying a word, he threw him in the courtyard like a piece of wood, and stood at the door again.
Zhu Youyi shouted: "I want to see the emperor!"
The guard said nothing.
The King of Zhou was confused and broke into the palace for several days. Zhu Yunwen was so angry that he locked him up in the Zongren Mansion. Logically speaking, it is enough to just sit back and think about your mistakes here, but this vassal king is really full of energy, and he often makes noises in the middle of the night. Now that the sun is almost out of the mountains, he has not stopped yet.
Guards are also human beings. They can secretly take a nap while standing guard to rest their minds, but now they are fine. They are noisy and have no peace of mind.
"Breakfast."
A eunuch was carrying a wooden tray with only a bowl of rice porridge, a steamed bun, and a pickled black cucumber on it.
The food in the Zongren Mansion has never been good. After all, there are not many people coming here, and there are not many permanent residents. The funds allocated by the royal family are really limited. Even if you are a prince, you can't do anything. You can deal with it as long as you don't starve to death.
Zhu Youhuo sat up, grabbed the steamed buns and ate them. After swallowing a few mouthfuls, he drank all the rice porridge. He asked the eunuch who was about to leave, "What news does the court have? If you tell me, , it’s good for you.”
When the eunuch saw that there was no one around him, and Zhu Youyi was the king of Zhou after all, and considering that the emaciated prince was also rich, he whispered: "North Korea sent a beauty to the emperor. It is said that the country is beautiful and fragrant, and many ministers like it. Lost my eyes..."
Zhu Youyi interrupted the eunuch and said, "Let's talk about other things. For example, is there any important case in the Ministry of Punishment, or is there any action by the Security Bureau?"
Zhu Youyi didn't care about this matter. Even if Zhu Yunwen got a lot of concubines, it was none of his business.
The eunuch grimaced and whispered: "Your Majesty, no kid can hear this."
Zhu Youhuo's eyes became cold and stern.
The eunuch suddenly remembered something and whispered: "A few days ago, the White Lotus sect's demon girl was captured and brought to Beijing. She was escorted by more than 3,000 people. She is so majestic."
Zhu Youyi knew that these three thousand people had escorted Moer, who had been locked up in the security bureau for a long time.
Snapped!
The large black ceramic bowl was smashed. Before the eunuch could react, Zhu Youhui picked up a fragment, stood up and pressed it against the eunuch's neck. Then he stood behind him and threatened: "If you don't run away, I will I won’t hurt you. If you are looking for death, I’m not afraid of killing you! If the prince kills a eunuch, it won’t cost his life, right?”
"Your Majesty, don't kill me. I have an eighty-year-old mother above me, and I have an eighty-year-old mother below me..."
The eunuch was trembling with fear. He was so unlucky to have been cut by a knife. Even when he begged for mercy, he said half the words less than others. What if he met the King of Hell because of these half words...
"Help!"
The eunuch cried.
Suddenly, the clan's mansion was in chaos.
Song Zheng, the manager of the Zongren Mansion, heard the commotion and rushed over with his people. He saw that Zhu Youyi had arrived at the door and was confronting the two guards.
The two guards refused to let him in at all. Their duty was to guard the door and prevent Zhu Youhui from going out. As for the eunuch's life and death, it was not within their duties. I'm really sorry.
What's that? Lord Zhou, if you want to kill someone, hurry up. Once you've finished carrying him away and rushing to the ground, we can get off work. The sun has risen. I'm so tired after standing all night.
The eunuch's neck had begun to bleed, and Zhu Youyi was already a little crazy. Seeing Song Zheng come in, he was still opening and closing his mouth, and he didn't know what to say, but seeing that he dared to come over, then don't blame yourself.
Song Zheng didn't know which bastard tripped him, causing him to run ahead. His neck felt cold. It was over, and he was a hostage. The eunuch ran aside and was extremely frightened. He thanked Song Qingcheng for taking his place. After Song Qingcheng pledged his body to the country, the eunuch changed his surname to Song.
It was unique in the Ming Dynasty to cause trouble in the clan's mansion and kidnap officials.
Zhu Yunwen was having breakfast with Concubine Ning when Shuangxi hurried over. Considering that this kind of news was not good, he got close to Zhu Yunwen and whispered: "The King of Zhou hijacked the clan's experience and threatened his life. Please see me." emperor."
Concubine Ning looked at it and remained silent.
Zhu Yunwen nodded slightly, waved Shuangxi to leave, then gave Concubine Ning some vegetables, and said: "You can't eat meat, so just eat some vegetables, and you can also drink some of the milk sent by Superintendent Shang."
Concubine Ning enjoyed this kind of care and her heart was filled with happiness.
After breakfast, Concubine Ning said softly: "I will go to Cining Palace today, and the emperor will handle the government affairs."
Zhu Yunwen pulled Han Xiayu over, leaned over and said, "Take care of your sister."
Han Xiayu nodded firmly in assurance.
Zhu Yunwen left Zhongcuigong with a smile, his face gradually darkened, and asked Shuangxi, "Where is Gu Sanshen?"
"Already waiting outside Wuying Palace."
Shuangxi replied quickly.
Zhu Yunwen got on the chariot, thought for a moment, and said, "Let's go to the clan's mansion."
"ah?"
Shuang Xi was shocked and quickly advised: "Your Majesty, King Zhou is acting crazy and it is not appropriate to approach him."
Zhu Yunwen waved his hand and did not change his mind.
After Gu Sanshen heard about it, he immediately rushed to the clan mansion.
Outside the clan's mansion, many officials had gathered.
The Zongren Mansion is located to the north of the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Household Affairs. It is the only place you must pass when entering the palace. There are Hanlin Academy and Taiyuan Hospital next to it, and opposite is the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army. It would be difficult to liven things up if something happened.
Tang Buping led people to blockade the Zongren Mansion, but still could not let these officials who were watching the excitement leave.
There is no way, no matter how powerful the Security Bureau is, it can't control people's gossip. It's not illegal to stand on tiptoes to see. Besides, there are still ministers, chief officials, and public officials in it, even those who want to go to the cabinet to discuss matters. Jian Yi, the official minister, is also here.
It was impossible for the security bureau to force him to evict him, so he had to guard the door and wait for news from the palace, whether to rush in and kill Zhu Youyi or arrest him and beat him.
Gu Sanshen looked at these officials with worry in his eyes. It was not a good thing to have more people, and it was more difficult to protect them. He pulled Tang Buping over and said, "Take some snacks and watch carefully. The emperor is here in person."
Tang Buping was a little surprised and said: "It would be better if this kind of thing could be handled directly. Why bother the emperor to go there in person?"
Gu Sanshen shook his head, with a somewhat cold look in his eyes, and ordered: "No matter what, it is our duty to protect the emperor. If King Zhou wants to harm the emperor, there is no need to hold back."
Not having to hold back means that he can be killed on the spot instead of being subdued and seriously injured.
Zhu Yunwen came, looked at the ministers who were kneeling and worshiped, and said calmly: "Do your own things, don't stop."
The ministers had no choice but to disperse.
After entering the clan's mansion and passing through three doors, Zhu Yunwen heard Zhu Youxuan's shouting.
"If you've made enough trouble, let him go."
Zhu Yunwen walked into the courtyard and looked at Zhu Youyi and Song Zheng hiding behind the door.
Zhu Youyi's eyes burned, and he immediately dropped the fragment in his hand, pushed Song Zheng aside, walked out, knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, I am willing to take off the title of King of Zhou in exchange for Mo'er's life, even if I am allowed to enter I won’t hesitate to go to jail.”
Tang Buping and Guo Gang stepped forward with their swords out of their sheaths. If Zhu Youhui made the slightest move, his head would fall to the ground in an instant.
Zhu Yunwen stared deeply at Zhu Youyi and said: "You kidnapped the eunuchs in the Zongren Mansion, made the incident known to the whole city, and made it known all over the city, just for a white lotus woman! Zhu Youyi, are you worthy of your surname? "
Zhu Youhuo raised his head, with tears streaming down his face, and shouted, "If she dies, what's the point of having this last name?"
Zhu Yunwen took two steps forward and said in a deep voice: "Is it worth it?"
There were tears hanging on Zhu Youhuo's chin, and they finally fell off and fell on the stone floor, spreading dampness. He said resolutely: "If the emperor had been moved by 'love', he would not have asked whether it was worth it. If If the emperor understands 'love', he will not care about anyone's opinions. If the emperor loses 'love', he will understand that even if he is fighting against the world and making enemies of everyone, he must protect her!"
Zhu Yunwen looked at the infatuated Zhu Youhuan. He was a very absurd person and a very failure, but it had to be said that he was also a deeply affectionate person.
He is not a good person, but he loves someone deeply.
The advent of what love is?
Direct teaching promises life and death.
If life and death are taken care of, who cares about other trivial matters?
Zhu Youhuo loved someone so passionately that it was earth-shattering. Is this an enviable feeling or a sad farce?
Zhu Yunwen has never had a life-or-death relationship. If he were to die, no one would be willing to take the initiative to live with him in the imperial mausoleum.
"Bai Lianmo'er's hands are stained with the blood of Ming soldiers and people. You know she has no way out."
Zhu Yunwen said seriously.
Zhu Youyi sat paralyzed on the ground, looked at Zhu Yunwen pleadingly, and said: "Can't the life of a Ming vassal king be exchanged for the life of a woman?"
Zhu Yunwen said: "The king of Zhou, Zhu Youhui, injured the officials of the sect's government and behaved improperly. Now he is deposed from the title of king of Zhou and deposed as a commoner. You are just a commoner now, why should you change her life?"
Zhu Youhuo's face was pale, his hands were trembling slightly, and he said dejectedly: "Zhiyue Alliance is talking about the marriage contract, drunk and dreaming about dancing in red clothes. If you don't care about three lives, how can life and death be different?"
Seeing Zhu Youyi who was already determined to die, Zhu Yunwen clenched his fists, turned around, and ordered: "Zhu Youyi has an affair with the White Lotus Sect. He should be taken to the Security Bureau headquarters for interrogation."
