After Xu Youzhen listened to Zhan Yang's words, she pondered for a moment, and then said softly: "You are not a fish, how can I know the joy of fish..."
"A person doesn't need any reason to dislike someone. To defeat him and become famous all over the world is an irresistible temptation for those who love fame."
"Of course, it is also possible that I am narrow-minded. This Han Yong just thinks that I am a minister who will bring disaster to the country and the people. Without me, I will be very important to the Ming Dynasty..."
Xu Youzhen was very calm when she spoke.
But when Zhan Yang heard this, he was furious: "Humph, a man who is just trying to gain fame, how could he know that Xu Du Yushi was a loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty, and he had to bear many unjust injustices for His Majesty and the Ming Dynasty..."
"Whenever I think of those days when I was in North Korea with Xu Du Yushi, I still feel excited and can't calm down for a long time. Xu Du Yushi, for the Ming Dynasty, does not care about reputation. This is a role model for our generation. No matter what Han Yong thinks, I Zhan Yang's respect for the censor of Xudu is like the rolling Yangtze River flowing eastward into the sea, flowing endlessly..." Zhan Yang said quickly.
Although Wang Miao fell, his language art also found an heir.
During this period of time, Zhan Yang has been learning how to flatter people and calmly give others a high hat.
Preliminary results have already been achieved.
After hearing this, Xu Youzhen shook her head with a wry smile, then waved her hand towards Zhan Yang and walked forward.
Looking at Zhan Yang's changes, he couldn't help but doubt himself and walked closer with him. Would such a slightly pedantic person have such a big change...
Zhan Yang looked puzzled at Xu Youzhen's gesture and hurriedly chased after him: "Censor Xu Du, aren't you happy with what I said?"
"What kind of relationship do we have? Do we still need to be so polite?" Xu Youzhen replied with a smile.
After listening to Xu Youzhen's words, Zhan Yang thought for a while. It seems that his attainments are still not there yet...
At this time, in the Palace of Qianqing.
Zhu Jianshen sat on the throne, closing his eyes and meditating.
He had to comfort Han Yong, but he also had to protect Xu Youzhen.
After Zhu Jianshen ascended the throne and took power, Xu Youzhen was the first person to truly be one of his own. Yu Qian was a minister of the Ming Dynasty and a minister of the people, but Xu Youzhen's identity was very simple. He was just a minister of the emperor.
Joining the company early will reap the dividends till old age. This is not an empty statement.
Not to mention that Xu Youzhen didn't commit any crime now, even if Xu Youzhen did get into trouble in the future, Zhu Jianshen would not be able to find the heart to be ruthless and raise the butcher's knife towards Xu Youzhen.
Emperors are human beings too.
Not to mention, Zhu Jianshen, even Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor of Taizu who was decisive in killing, also had closeness and distance in his heart. After Zhu Biao's death, Zhu Yuanzhang, who killed many heroes, did not raise his butcher knife against Tang He, Duke Xin, and even never Never had this idea.
In fact, at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the stars were shining brightly.
Tang He was a little embarrassed.
Xu Da, who made the first contribution to the founding of the People's Republic of China, was the commander-in-chief of the Ming army, conquered most of the capital, and regained the sixteen states of Yanyun. Xu Da was the most capable vanguard. He experienced hundreds of battles and never failed. He died wearing a dragon robe. Chang Yuchun, the number one brave general, there was no way Tang He could compare with the two of them.
But he is older.
The most dazzling word in his historical title is "Xin Guogong, a famous general who died well." It seems that surviving from the hands of Emperor Hongwu is outstanding.
Not to mention the contribution of these two people, the bloody battle in Hongdu, Zhu Wenzheng, the tower-guarding madman, the thousands-mile expedition, Li Wenzhong, the father of Jinglong, the ever-victorious general, Fu Youde, Feng Sheng who pacified the northwest, and even Mu Ying and Lan Yu, who were nephews, Both are more dazzling than Tanghe.
But Tang He was the first to join the group, and he was also the one who led Zhu Yuanzhang to greatness. They grew up playing naked.
Although his merits were not enough to support him to become one of the six founders of the country, with this qualification, no one dared to say anything when he became a prince. Moreover, later on, Zhu Yuanzhang still made up for him. Initially, Tang He, who controlled one hundred princes, also helped Zhu Yuanzhang complete the first headache after the founding of the country, which was to enfeoff the heroes.
Tang He is a typical person who joined the company early and got the original shares...
Comparing Tang He and Xu Youzhen, they seem a bit nondescript, but from the emperor's point of view, their positioning is the same...
When Zhu Jianshen was deep in thought, Gao Yi walked in: "Your Majesty, Han Shangshu is waiting outside..."
"Let him in."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
After a while, Han Yongbian strode into the Qianqing Palace.
"Your Majesty, Han Yong, comes to see you."
Zhu Jian smiled deeply: "Han Qing, please be flat."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." After saying that, Han Yong stood up.
"In the court, Han Shangshu probably has something to say that he hasn't finished yet. I've called you here just to hear it, but you can't stop talking..."
After listening to Zhu Jianshen's words, Han Yong really wanted to express all his dissatisfaction with Xu Youzhen in one breath, but his reason told him that he could not do this.
"I hesitate to speak. Your Majesty, you are overthinking."
Zhu Jianshen smiled when he heard the words: "The emperor is sitting in Jiuzhou, but if he wants to hear some truth, it is all a luxury. I know what you are worried about, and I also know what you are hesitant to say..."
"Today, I summoned Han Qing to Qianqing Palace because I want to ask Han Qing something, and I hope Han Qing can reply truthfully."
"I must tell you everything I know." Han Yong replied softly. BIquGe.biz
At this time, Han Yong always felt strange in his heart.
"Is Xu Youzhen incompetent..."
"Your Majesty, although Xu Youzhen does whatever it takes to achieve his goals, he does have some abilities."
"Then, will the new tax system benefit the country and the people..."
"Your Majesty, the new tax system is indeed beneficial to the country and the people..."
"Changes that benefit the country and the people are full of difficulties, but someone needs to stand up to the infamy. If Xu Youzhen can't stand up, who can..." Zhu Jianshen said with a sigh.
For this kind of thing, if the emperor steps down and stands up, he will be ousted sooner or later. But when officials from the civil service collective step up to stand up, the emperor can stay out of the matter forever and serve as the last barrier.
Listening to the emperor's words, Han Yong remained silent.
And Zhu Jianshen continued to ask: "The Yanshenggong Mansion, with hundreds of thousands of acres of fertile land and tens of thousands of tenant farmers, is it a bit unreasonable..."
"unreasonable……"
"Things that benefit the country and the people, and things that offend others, have to be done by someone. Do you think, Li Xian, the chief minister of the court, or Xu Youzhen, who would do some thankless things for the court?"
"Xu Youzhen..." Han Yong didn't even have to think about this.
"Since Xu Youzhen can do things that Li Xian cannot do, regardless of fame, I must take a high look at him. Regarding today's matter, I also want to say something from my heart to Han Shangshu. Wang Miao's matter has nothing to do with Xu Youzhen. , but even if Wang Miao’s matter has a great relationship with Xu Youzhen, I will not punish him severely..."
"He gave up his reputation behind him, so I must ensure his wealth in front of him... This is something I have to do. Han Qing is also an important minister of the country. He will have to work hard for the Ming Dynasty in the future. I am that person. A kind of unkind and unkind monarch."
