"Oh, you feel a lot?"
Zhu Yuanzhang became interested and asked, "Why do you feel so much?"
Su Jing replied: "I have never been in jail in my life, but now I have been. I have a different experience in my life. How can I not be touched by it?"
"Hahahahaha!"
Hearing Su Jing's answer, Zhu Yuanzhang laughed directly: "Su Jing, you are always so interesting."
Su Jing smiled and said: "Isn't it the same for Your Majesty? I'm afraid you didn't come here to ask me how I feel about being in prison."
Lao Zhu thinks Su Jing is interesting, and Su Jing also thinks Lao Zhu is interesting.
People are here, and there is nothing to talk about here.
Zhu Yuanzhang suppressed his smile and said, "Su Jing, do you know that few of the prisoners who entered Yingtian Mansion Prison can get out again?"
Su Jing replied: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for informing me. The common people now know."
this……
Lao Zhu felt a little uncomfortable, and he couldn't accept Su Jing's words.
Even though he had confessed his identity as the Ming Emperor, how could he still feel so aggrieved when communicating with Su Jing?
But Su Jing's answer was quite correct, there was no problem.
"Su Jing, do you know why you were arrested?"
Zhu Yuanzhang changed the topic directly.
Su Jing shook her head and said: "Reporting to your majesty, the common people really don't know that the right prime minister suddenly appeared and immediately arrested me. I haven't been interrogated until now, and I have been locked up like this."
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Su Jing and frowned, and said: "Su Jing, there are only you and me here. Why do you have to say such things? Do you think I will believe that you don't know anything until now?"
The various prediction scenes that Su Jing showed before were so solid that Zhu Yuanzhang was shocked many times.
This time, Lao Zhu believed that Su Jing must know, not for sure.
Su Jing naturally knew Zhu Yuanzhang's thoughts, and he said helplessly: "Your Majesty, the common people are not gods. Originally, the common people planned to go home, and then the right prime minister suddenly appeared and arrested me. Then I stayed in the prison until now. I have no idea. There’s no way to know why!”
Su Jing's words did not make Zhu Yuanzhang change his mind. Lao Zhu said: "Su Jing, are you blaming me?"
In the final analysis, the fundamental reason for what happened now is Zhu Yuanzhang.
If he hadn't given Yang Xian a hint, Yang Xian wouldn't have had the guts to arrest Su Jing directly.
Su Jing asked doubtfully: "Your Majesty, do you mean that it was you who caused me to be arrested?"
"I didn't say that."
Zhu Yuanzhang immediately argued that he really didn't expect that Su Jing would be able to catch the conversation.
This guy was talking to himself in the cell, still very calm, and not at all like a prisoner.
Su Jing said: "The common people are too bold. How can they doubt Your Majesty? Please forgive me."
Although she was asking for forgiveness, Su Jing's attitude did not seem to be pleading at all.
"Su Jing, aren't you afraid of me?"
Zhu Yuanzhang stared at Su Jing and asked, with a bit of sternness in his words.
Under such circumstances, Su Jing was still fearless, which really made Lao Zhu curious about what confidence Su Jing had.
Su Jing asked: "Why should ordinary people be afraid of Your Majesty?"
This question made Lao Zhu a little confused. Although he had not been emperor for a long time, no one under his command dared to ask him such a question.
He is the emperor, and the people and officials of the Ming Dynasty will naturally be in awe of him. What is the reason for this?
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "I am the emperor, don't you even have basic respect?"
As an emperor, he pays special attention to the awe of his subordinates.
"I see."
Su Jing suddenly said: "The common people pay homage to Your Majesty."
As she said this, Su Jing was about to kneel down and bow down to Zhu Yuanzhang, looking quite in awe.
Su Jing didn't want to talk to Lao Zhu about the idea of equal rights that all people are created equal. This was simply impossible to do.
As for kneeling down, Su Jing didn't think it was anything.
When I was doing business in my previous life, it’s not like I was never a grandson. Being able to bend and stretch is the way to go.
Even with the system's black technology at her side, Su Jing didn't want to use it unless she had to. Honestly, the prosperous life in the Ming Dynasty was quite good.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Su Jing's kneeling ceremony and nodded slightly, feeling quite satisfied.
Well, this is how it should be.
"Okay, Your Majesty, this is enough for the common people to awe you."
Su Jing didn't even get up, she just made a small spin, sat cross-legged on the floor of the cell and said, her movements were quite smooth.
this……
Zhu Yuanzhang's face jumped slightly, but he didn't say anything after all.
"By the way, Your Majesty, are you here to let me out this time?"
Su Jing asked Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said: "Su Jing, I thought you didn't want to go out. For these days, you have been staying in the prison peacefully without doing anything. It really doesn't look like the Su Jing I know. "
Even though this was Lao Zhu's first time visiting Su Jing in prison, he knew everything that happened after Su Jing was imprisoned.
Su Jing really stayed in the prison very honestly, eating and drinking as she should every day. Even when Zhu Biao came, she didn't ask for anything.
It’s so cooperative!
It feels like a prisoner who has resigned himself to his fate and given up entirely on the struggle.
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't wait for the reaction he wanted from Su Jing, so he decided to come and see for himself.
Now when I heard Su Jing's words, I was very proud.
"Then you don't know why you were arrested. Now that your Majesty is here, the matter must have been found out."
Su Jing replied.
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Then what if I tell you and I still haven't found out clearly?"
Su Jing shrugged and said, "It turns out you can't go out yet, so just stay here. One day we will find out."
Looking at Su Jing who looked indifferent, Zhu Yuanzhang's face jumped again.
Su Jing really has no worries about being in prison.
Is he really not afraid?
"Su Jing, you are in Yingtian Mansion Prison now. Aren't you afraid at all?"
Zhu Yuanzhang asked doubtfully.
Su Jing immediately said seriously: "Your Majesty, the common people walk and sit upright, the body is not afraid of slanting shadows, the sky net is wide and sparse, and the heaven and earth are enlightened... The common people believe that Your Majesty will definitely give me justice!"
"So, the common people are not afraid! Even if the common people are in prison at the moment, the common people firmly believe that Ming Dynasty will not unjustly accuse me!"
What Su Jing said in this paragraph was so righteous and justified!
Hearing this, Lao Zhu felt that the Ming Dynasty under his rule was really good, and he was really a sage emperor.
Su Jing looked at Lao Zhu's helpful expression. She was calm on the surface, but sneered in her heart: Isn't it easy to control you, little boy?
Su Jing knew very well what Lao Zhu wanted to hear.
"Yes, yes, Su Jing, you are right."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said: "It seems that you still trust Daming and me."
Who doesn't like to be flattered?
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know that Su Jing was actually flattering himself, but he really took advantage of Su Jing's flattery.
Su Jing immediately said: "So, Your Majesty, when can the common people go out?"
The environment in the cell is indeed bearable, but in such a smelly place, no one would want to stay here if they could leave.
Zhu Yuanzhang put away his smile, looked at Su Jing and said: "I can't let you go out, but because the matter has not been investigated clearly yet, I have to arrange an official position for you first. In this case, even if you are guilty, you can go out first. "
Lao Zhu finally revealed his true plan, he still wanted Su Jing to enter the court.
According to the current Ming Dynasty laws, if an official breaks the law, even if he is guilty, he must continue to work at his job.
Commonly known as wearing shackles to work.
This is a provision specially made by Lao Zhu in order to deal with the fact that the officials are too young and too busy.
Now it is appropriate to make arrangements for Su Jing and let him go out.
Of course, Lao Zhu just found a reason here. Even if there is no such rule, he will change it.
As long as Su Jing wants to go out, it will be easy to handle.
"Forget it, Your Majesty, the common people think that since the case has not been investigated clearly, it is better for me to stay in prison."
Su Jing answered directly.
There is no chance of me joining the court as an official!
Power is indeed a good thing, but Su Jing knows very well that the fate of being an official in the Ming Dynasty is too dangerous!
It's really not worthwhile to risk your own life for power.
Su Jing still strengthened his belief. He felt that he could still endure the stench in the cell.
Zhu Yuanzhang was startled, not expecting Su Jing to refuse so simply.
"Su Jing, I may not have made it clear. I am just giving you a false position so that you can get out of this prison first. I am not asking you to do anything really."
Zhu Yuanzhang patiently explained that being tempting is like tempting a little white rabbit.
Unfortunately, Su Jing is not a little white rabbit.
"Your Majesty, people in the light don't speak secretly."
Su Jing said calmly: "Today is a temporary duty, tomorrow is an urgent matter, and the day after tomorrow it will be practical work. If the bottom line can be moved, it is not called the bottom line."
Su Jing saw through Lao Zhu's thoughts at a glance.
I moved in little by little, just like what the scumbag said that I couldn't get in. There was no credibility at all.
Seeing that his plan was revealed by Su Jing, Lao Zhu's face turned slightly ugly.
But he was not too discouraged, after all, this was the outcome he had thought of before coming here.
"Su Jing, if this is the case, you may not be able to get out for the time being."
Zhu Yuanzhang said to Su Jing.
If you don't want to be an official, then you have to suffer. This is your choice.
If you reject me, you will suffer!
Su Jing said calmly: "It's okay, it doesn't hurt to stay a little longer."
It's just a few more days of stinking, Su Jing is not in a hurry at all.
"Su Jing, is this interesting to you?"
Zhu Yuanzhang stood up, moved closer to Su Jing, and asked, "As an official, do you still need me to beg you?"
Su Jing immediately said: "Your Majesty, the melon that is forced is not sweet. The people's aspirations are not here, so let's forget it."
Lao Zhu took a few steps further and said, "Su Jing, do you know that it's because the prince has been with you these days that no one targets you, and you even get preferential treatment in food and drink."
"If you insist on staying here, I can guarantee that the next days will never be so easy."
Su Jing's prison life was much more comfortable than that of other prisoners.
Zhu Biao accompanied us, and we ate and drank at the same time. The food was even a bit good. Apart from being unable to take a shower and being a bit smelly, there was nothing else.
"The common people know. It just so happens that His Majesty is here. Please advise the prince to go back as soon as possible. I am just a common person. It is not appropriate for the prince to accompany me all the time."
Su Jing directly persuaded Zhu Yuanzhang, but this could not stop Lao Zhu.
"Su Jing!"
Anger appeared on Lao Zhu's face, and he said: "I am doing it for your own good, do you really not appreciate it? I am leaving today, and you have no chance to regret it?"
Even though he had confessed his identity, Su Jing was still in prison and still felt so uncomfortable. Lao Zhu's anger was really getting stronger now.
But Lao Zhu really didn't know what to do to Su Jing. Before coming, Queen Ma gave her many instructions.
Besides, Lao Zhu is reluctant to do anything to Su Jing now.
Su Jing looked at the angry Zhu Yuanzhang and said: "Your Majesty, Su Jing understands your kindness, but I also have my own persistence and my own character! I hope your Majesty will not embarrass me. After all, I am also the prince's teacher and I have to do it for the students." What a good example."
Su Jing directly moved Zhu Biao out. The prince's master must be able to teach by words and deeds.
Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly and said: "You are already in prison, and you are still thinking about teaching the prince. Su Jing, don't you think it's a bit ridiculous to say this?"
When he thinks of Zhu Biao, Lao Zhu is now very angry.
In the end, it was Su Jing who taught Zhu Biao, which caused Zhu Biao to deviate from the emperor training policy decided by Lao Zhu, which is now being revised.
Su Jing nodded and said: "Your Majesty, this learning does not matter where you are. Even if you are in prison, you can still teach. I originally thought that if the prince did not leave, I would continue to teach something."
"But now that Your Majesty is here, I don't think this is necessary."
Listening to Su Jing's serious answer, Lao Zhu felt that Su Jing was just perfunctory.
"Su Jing, then you can continue to stay here. I want to see how long you can last."
Zhu Yuanzhang said coldly.
After saying that, he turned around and prepared to leave without looking back.
"Your Majesty, wait!"
Su Jing said.
Zhu Yuanzhang stopped, a smile flashed across his face, but he restrained himself the moment he turned his head: "What, Su Jing, have you figured it out now?"
Su Jing quickly shook her head and said, "No, your Majesty, I just have something to remind your Majesty."
"you……"
Zhu Yuanzhang was a little angry and speechless, but when he thought it was Su Jing's reminder, he suppressed his anger and said, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Su Jing said: "I saw it said in books and newspapers that His Majesty wants to issue new banknotes, right?"
"Yes, what's wrong? Now that Ming Dynasty's internal problems have been almost solved. After the Northern Expedition, it's time for Ming Dynasty to have its own treasure."
Zhu Yuanzhang replied.
Su Jing said lightly: "My reminder is very simple. This new currency is indeed necessary, but it is still mainly gold and silver, supplemented by copper coins. Paper money is not suitable for the current Ming Dynasty."
Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, paused and then said: "This is not something you, a prisoner, should consider."
