Chapter 120: Big Profits
It’s almost unthinkable.
At least in Zhu Di’s mind, a sage is never like Zhang Anshi.
And …… how does this guy he know so much?
If this bastard is a sage, then what is I?
Zhu was incredulous.
There was a smile on Zhu Gaoxu’s face, but now that smile was fading away.
Zhu Gaoxu said, “Nonsense, you must have colluded …… with Zhang Anshi It must be.”
Zhu Gaoxu can not accept, busy half a day, how is Zhang Anshi again!
How come it’s like the whole world is playing itself?
No, no, it’s a conspiracy. It has to be.
If you do that again, won’t that make me look as stupid as a pig?
Yang Shiqi also only just recovered, he was slightly silent, fixed his mind, then said, “I do not dare to deceive the king.”
At these words, Zhu Gaoxu suddenly changed color.
No one dares to deceive the king, and people like Yang Shiqi have even less guts to do so, and it is impossible to take the heads of his whole family to make this guarantee just for the sake of lifting that Zhang Anshi’s sedan chair.
Zhu Gaoxu said with an ugly face, “How do you …… you know it s him?”
“Previously those words, is what Uncle Cheng En said to the minister.” Yang Shiqi smiled bitterly and continued, “I pondered hard and could not understand, so later …… later ……”
Zhu stared at Yang Shiqi, “Later what?”
Yang Shiqi said, “Later …… I remember now, later he came to find me, and sent roast duck, kept asking me to eat it or not, and after that, he and I explained the essence of the unity of knowledge and action, and I remember that I also wrote an article for this… …Your Majesty, is this not still him?”
Zhu was so surprised that he couldn’t speak for a moment.
After a half-dozen moments of slowing down, he sat down in the royal chair all at once before saying, “How did he get such learning?”
Yang Shiqi said, “Uncle Chengen is unpredictable, I don’t know.”
Zhu Di was dumbfounded and couldn’t come back to his senses for a long time.
He’s seen a lot of big storms.
But something like this has never been seen before.
Zhu thought for a moment and said, “In any case, there must be an explanation with that Mr. Li.”
Said, Zhu Di said, “Come on people, go to invite Mr. Li, and that Hu Yanyan …… No, call the hundred officials to see.”
And Yizhar went in haste.
Zhu Di then frowned again, “It’s not right! How is this possible? I am not a fool, how can I believe such a thing! If this great sage is Zhang Anshi, then shouldn’t I be Confucius? Confucius should not be as brave as me, right?”
He paced back and forth, feeling more and more unimaginable.
Zhu Gaoxu said, “Father, I know, Zhang Anshi deceives the world ……”
“Get out of my way!” Zhu Di was furious: “You can’t see that your royal brother and Zhang Anshi are good?”
Then, with a cold smile, he said, “Do you think that without your royal brother, I will let you be the crown prince?”
These words, really teach Zhu Gaoxu’s heart cold, he old half a day to react, grudgingly looked at Zhu Di, a moment speechless.
On the other end, the hundred officials heard the news and entered the palace.
At this time, people mingled and heard that Yang Shiqi had woken up, and thinking about this controversy inside and outside the court, many people fell curious.
That Li Xiyan suddenly renewed spirit, like ten years younger, supported by Hu Yan, fire into the palace.
To the palace, the hundred officials made a great salute.
Zhu looked at them with odd eyes.
And then, Zhu Di slowly said, “Some days ago, I went to visit the sage, but it is panic empty-handed, today …… this sage …… I am visiting, the Secretary guess who?”
The hundred officials are cursing you retarded thing, how can I guess this?
So everyone kept their heads down, not daring to make a sound, mainly because they were afraid that their eyes would be swept over by Zhu and their minds would be betrayed by their eyes.
Li Xiyan said with a few moments of impatience, “Please clarify, Your Majesty.”
He looked very excited, he these days, more and more pondering this to conscience, is more and more feel the power of it, just three words, really contains infinite truth.
This Zhi Liang Zhi, of course, is in the context of the unity of knowledge and action and the mind-as-reason.
Zhu Di smiled and looked at Yang Shiqi, “Secretary Yang, you speak.”
Yang Shiqi stood out and saw countless eyes looking at him.
After a moment of silence, he spoke six words in a decisive manner, “Seung Eun Bo Zhang Anshi.”
At these words, a pin dropped in the hall.
Only Li Xiyan looked confused and whispered, “Zhang Anshi? Who is Zhang Anshi? I wonder which great sage?”
He was looking at Hu Yan and said.
Hu Yan, however, averted her face to the side and ignored him.
Li Xi Yan said in a puzzled manner, “Senior Hu, could it be that you don’t recognize it either?”
Hu Yan: “……”
It was awfully quiet in the hall, and no one said a word anymore.
In fact, even if this person even if it is Yang Shiqi, everyone can accept, but …… Zhang Anshi?
“Your Majesty.” At this time, Hu Yan finally couldn’t help but stand out, “Isn’t …… it wrong?”
Although Zhu Di also felt incredulous in his heart, he still said, “Yang Shiqi wouldn’t dare to deceive the king!”
At this moment, Hu Yan was speechless.
He suddenly felt …… himself going out today and didn t read the yellow calendar.
“Your Majesty …… Cheng En Bo Zhang An Shi had an audience.” Just then, a eunuch came in with small steps and reported.
Zhu Di was quite agitated, he took a deep breath, “Summon in.”
Soon, Zhang Anshi entered the hall and bowed in a regular manner.
In fact, before he came, he had already anticipated the situation, and sure enough, the gazes of the hundred officials all looked toward him.
Li Xiyan took a look at Zhang Anshi as just a teenager, and the whole thing was astonished.
Zhu Di said, “Secretary Zhang, I’ve come to ask you, those words, is it you said to Secretary Yang?”
Zhang Anshi sweated, but still said seriously, “Back to Your Majesty, yes.”
The hall was in an uproar at these words.
People were mingling, no longer caring about the disrespect before the king.
Li Xi Yan and Hu Yan exchanged glances, and Hu Yan’s head immediately dropped.
Zhu Di said, “Did you figure this out?”
“No.” Zhang Anshi said without hesitation, “At my young age, how could I possibly figure out such a great truth?”
Phew ……
Many people have a long sigh of relief, if it is really Zhang Anshi figured out, to be honest …… this temple in the hundred officials, no matter agree with not as agree with these words, in fact, are to be ashamed to hang themselves.
Zhu then said, “Who told you that?”
Zhang Anshi naturally had long been prepared, calmly said, “Your Majesty still remember …… when Sage Kong entrusted a dream to me?”
Chu: “……”
The officials looked at each other, did they really have a dream?
At this point, many will be skeptical.
I only saw Zhang Anshi then said, “Kong saint entrusted a dream, instructing me to properly light up Confucianism, and then …… there was a man …… who claimed to be Mr. Yangming, and always came to see my minister in the middle of the night.”
“……”
“This man taught me these studies, and afterward said, This is the supreme principle of Confucianism, remember and keep it in mind.”
The crowd took a deep breath.
Mr. Yang Ming.
Listening to this name is very advanced, so this extraordinary person is Mr. Yang Ming.
So close, so close ……
Everyone had odd eyes.
Zhu was so interested that he was just about to pursue the question.
Then Li Xiyan and Hu Yan were both anxious, and busily said, “Then where is Mr. Yangming now?”
“Passed away.” Zhang Anshi said, “He said that I, Zhang Anshi, have clear bones and that I have done good deeds and accumulated virtues in my daily life, and that now he has a discipline of learning that he would like to teach.”
“……”
The hundred officials exchanged words.
Zhang Anshi continued, “I said at that time, no, I am a relative, do not learn Confucius and Mencius, learning is useless. He then said, “You are the only one who can make the Confucian school a great success.”
“……”
Zhang Anshi said, “I said, I’m too young, I’m afraid I can’t accept your learning. He laughed and said, “As I look at all the people in the world, although you are young, you are one in ten thousand in terms of intelligence.”
“I also said that there are always people outside slandering my reputation, I am afraid that if I learn from you, I will be questioned. This Mr. Yang Ming said, “If a tree stands out in the forest, the wind will destroy it. If a man is superior to the crowd, people will criticize him. What has it got to do with you if other people talk nonsense? What I have learned is so vast and profound that I don’t care what people say.”
“I then said, why not I can not, I am really ashamed, I am afraid to let you down. Mr. then said, the current emperor, is the holy lord, you should be my life of learning, will carry forward this learning, then there will be someone to help the holy lord, benefit the gods and goddesses of life.”
The group of ministers talked even more.
But whereas the party had the courage to whisper curses of ghostly bullshit, they were now careful with their words.
When Zhu Di heard this, his tiger’s eyes closed slightly, and the corners of his mouth inadvertently revealed a smile.
Does it matter if it’s true or not? At least by the looks of it, there’s a very good chance that it’s true, otherwise how could Zhang Anshi teach a Huiyuan, and how could he even admire someone like Li Xiyan?
Holy Lord?
Zhu Di muttered in his heart, “I wonder if the Holy Lord in the mouth of this Mr. Yang Ming is comparable to Li Shimin?
After all, Zhu’s identity is, in fact, extremely flawed!
He was a usurper who ascended to the throne. A person who usurps the throne and ascends to the throne is naturally contrary to the fundamental thinking of Confucianism.
The world’s hundred officials and readers, although the mouth dare not say, but this heart how to think, it is not Zhu Di can control.
Now that a great sage of such high moral standing has characterized Zhu Di, it is not a bad thing for Zhu Di.
Zhang Anshi added at this time, “Since then, I have been learning from Mr. Zhang every night, only that after a few months, Mr. Zhang told me that his life span was over, and that he would only be unable to teach me any more, and that I was so smart and clever that I had naturally already left the master’s class, and so he said goodbye to me, and I have not seen or heard from him since then.”
After a pause, Zhang Anshi continued, “I am really ashamed, got his life’s learning, but even his name did not ask clearly, he is a lazy person, said that fame and fortune is nothing but things outside the body, you just learn my skills, ask me what to do with my name? You are my closed door chief great disciple, in the future just light up my door, I will get what I want.”
After saying this, Zhang Anshi glanced at the crowd and finally said, “Pretty much, this is how things are, and I don t know the rest …… of it. Your majesty …… minister did not cause any trouble, right?”
There was a deathly silence among the monarchs and ministers.
There’s actually no way to disprove this stuff.
And a lot of the facts are really right in front of you, you have to believe them.
The only flaw was that Mr. Yang Ming, such a great sage, was so blind as to pick such a good-for-nothing as Zhang Anshi.
“Cough up …… cough up ……”
Coughs rose and fell in the great hall.
Zhu Di squeezed out a smile, “This is chance. It’s your luck that Secretary Zhang was able to receive such a great sage’s devotion.”
Zhang Anshi said: “In fact, I am shallow, there is not much virtue, just that Mr. Yang Ming, must be so praised me, I am ashamed of this, think of this, will not sleep at night, will not be that Mr. Yang Ming looked at the wrong person …… but Mr. Yang Ming said he read countless people, said that among the readers, there are The only thing I …… have is a frivolous appearance, but inside is a collection of moral wisdom, etiquette and faith, warmth, good manners and thrift in a body, what is really one in a million talents, ah …… really ashamed of ah. ”
“……”
It was Zhu Di who rejoiced and said, “One should not only look at the surface. If it is the surface, then under the sky who are virtuous people, after all, or to look inside it, the so-called know people know the face do not know the heart, that is the case.”
At that moment, Zhu Di said, “This Mr. Yang Ming is indeed a great talent, a man of the highest virtue, you should not let him down.”
Encouragement, dispersal of the dynasty, all in one go.
Zhang Anshi was afraid of being besieged, so he hastily hurried out of the palace again.
Who knows, just arrived at the noon gate.
Someone in the back is also fit as a fiddle.
“Zhang Anshi, Zhang Anshi ……”
Zhang Anshi stopped and looked back, but it was actually that Li Xiyan and Hu Yan.
This duo …… running this fast?
hare
Zhang Anshi had to say, “What is it?”
Li Xi Yan stepped forward and said with a smile, “Greetings to Eldest Senior Brother.”
“What?” Zhang Anshi looked at Li Xiyan with a skeptical expression.
“I am also a student of Mr. Yang Ming.” Li Xiyan said, “And Eldest Senior Brother entered Mr. Yang Ming’s disciple first, there is a first come first served in everything, so you are naturally the Eldest Senior Brother of the two of us.”
Hu Yan: “……”
Hu Yan didn’t want to come after him, he was just worried that Li Xiyan was running too fast, and if he had an accident in the middle of the journey, it would be bad.
Zhang Anshi, who had always been more easygoing to those who treated him well, smiled and said, “No matter what, you’re too polite.”
Li Xiyan said, “Dare I ask Eldest Senior Brother if he has read my piece, ‘To Conscience’?”
Zhang Anshi said, “Seeing is seeing.”
Li Xi Yan was instantly energized, “How? I don’t know what mistakes are in it, but I’d like to ask Eldest Brother to point them out.”
Zhang Anshi said in his heart, I fucking know some of the fur of psychology, the last life to take a little something to cheat the girl, of course, until the end Zhang Anshi realized that this thing can not cheat the girl, people talk about Porsche, Hermes.
Zhang Anshi said sheepishly, “It’s very well written, and it simply coincides with what Enshu said.”
“Yes?” Li Xiyan was greatly surprised, and lamented, “Where, I am merely picking up on someone else’s wisdom, Eldest Senior Brother, I have another question, is this Zhi Liang Zhi, is it a supplement to knowledge by action, and therefore knowledge by action?”
“Ah …… this ……” Zhang Anshi was silent for a moment and said, “I guess so.”
Li Xiyan said, “Does Senior Brother …… think that I am too stupid, so …… he refuses to give instruction?”
“No no.” Zhang Anshi busily said, “Why does Enshu take the heart as the basis? This is because the heart is everything, this heart, in fact, is the meaning of perception, so Mr. Yang Ming’s learning, the most important lies in perception, understand? You more experience, more sense, naturally without a teacher.”
Li Xiyan heard, a face of surprise, said, “So it is, I understand, knowledge and action, this knowledge …… is actually so, I understand. Hey, big senior brother, I am really ashamed to be so ignorant, see the joke.”
Zhang Anshi then laughed, “No harm done, you are already very capable.”
“Then in the future, if I have any more epiphanies, can I discuss them with Eldest Senior Brother?”
Zhang Anshi said, “Yes.”
He made up his mind, no matter what the other guy came up with, he’d be done if he said right, right, right.
Li Xiyan, however, added: “By the way, Mr. also said that he wanted to lighten the lintel, of which, I wonder what is the reason?”
Zhang Anshi came to his senses at this time, he said, “Because nowadays the readers, all of them have gone astray, they take the eight stocks as their goal, they take the survival of heaven’s reasoning and the destruction of man’s desires as their criterion, and not only that, they also advocate Hao head and poor scriptures, and they only read those four books and five sutras every day.”
“This learning of Enshu is to liberate the world’s readers from this attempt. Liberation of the mind, do you understand? It means that there is no need to read too much of the Four Books and Five Classics, because the rationale has long been rooted in the human heart, and since you already know what the rationale is, then why continue to seek the so-called final answer from the scriptures?”
Li Xiyan listened to it and solemnly got up, “I have read books for my whole life, and the more I read, the more confused I became, so here it is.”
Zhang Anshi said, “Even Master Li, who has still been reading all his life, is getting more and more confused, what about the other readers? They are too pitiful, only by liberating their minds can we free them, and this is also Mr. Yang Ming’s intention.”
In fact, after the death of Wang Shouren, the science of mind has long since given rise to various schools of thought, each with its own viewpoint and saying whatever it wants.
Zhang Anshi, of course, is not immune to adding his own personal goods, the problem in the world today, is that the readers do not read enough books?
Of course not! The crux of the matter lies in the fact that there is too much reading of those four books and five sutras, many of which have been read all their lives, for what purpose?
The terrible thing is …… that these readers, they read and also internal scrolls, this kind of useless four books and five scriptures, hundreds of years, countless of the most intelligent readers, but spent a lifetime, just to read more than others.
This is a great waste for the whole world, and these people are happy to do it.
Li Xiyan heard, stood in awe: “Mr. do not care about fame and fortune, but also have the right source, help the world’s heart, such great virtue, really rare. I and other late generation, when we do our best to fulfill Mr. will. Right, senior brother …… don’t know if the master left behind any …… books …… or …… ”
Zhang Anshi immediately said, “Only I, oh, and three senior brothers were left behind.”
“Senior brother?” Li Xi Yan was overjoyed, “I didn’t realize that I have three other senior brothers with Ruosi?”
Hu Yan’s face suddenly changed, well, he was that Ruosi senior brother!
He quietly tugged on Li Xi Yan’s sleeve, signaling him not to ask.
I only saw Zhang Anshi said, “Of course, you are somewhat unfortunate to have started a little late, these three senior brothers, but also sages, the general people in the capital call us the four Confucian scholars of the capital.”
Li Xiyan traditionally secluded, not very concerned about the outside world, at this time to hear the capital of the four Confucian, can not help but respect, but turned back to look at Hu Yan: “Hu senior brother, you do not tug on my sleeve.”
Hu Yan embarrassed face blushing, lowered his head and said, “I …… I help you straighten your robe, the day is not early, here is not suitable to stay for a long time, or first return to ……”
Li Xi Yan laughed and said, “Haha, it’s rare to meet Eldest Brother today, how can we return without success? Besides, there are still three brothers we haven’t met yet! Ruosi ah, today is the time for our six brothers to reunite, Mr. Yang Ming in heaven, knowing that the six of us are reunited, will certainly be pleased.”
After saying that, he looked at Zhang Anshi again and said, “Eldest senior brother, I wonder where the three senior brothers are again?”
Hu Yan touched his forehead, “Oops, oops, somehow I’m a bit dizzy, maybe it’s a recurrence of an old disease.”
Zhang Anshi immediately said, “I will cure, I will cure.”
Hu Yan’s face stiffened, and he busied himself by saying, “It’s much better now.”
Li Xiyan, however, had begun to urge on, and he was in high spirits, feeling as if he could do something great with his remaining life.
Only Hu Yan had mixed feelings, he had a feeling of, how did I suddenly get on the thief ship.
When Zhang Anshi led Li Xiyan and Hu Yan to find the three remaining great Confucian scholars, it was by the river.
Chuson was sleeping on the stone slabs of the riverbank, exposing his belly and basking comfortably in the sun.
Zhu Yong and Zhang Yoking, on the other hand, went down the river embankment, and the two of them stepped in the silt, both puckering their high asses, and the two of them buried their heads in the silt together.
Zhang Anshi looked dumbfounded.
“What are they doing?” Zhang Anshi kicked Qusong on the ground.
Qusong’s eyes didn’t open and he continued to pat his belly, “The second and third brothers were stupid and were competing to see who could hold it in longer.”
Lee Hee-Yan: “……”
Hu Yan put his head to the side and couldn’t bear to look at it.
Finally …… Zhang yoked and pulled his head out of the sludge with a poof, puffing and panting.
Only then did Zhu Yong pull out his head and laughed, “Haha, I won, I won.”
The two men’s heads were covered with mud, and Zhang yoked his head and said, “It’s not possible, I was thinking about my mind just now, so let’s compete again.”
“Just compare.”
The duo continued to take deep breaths and began to take their heads into the silt again.
Standing on the riverbank, Zhang Anshi awkwardly explained, “They’re mostly relatively normal, only occasionally.”
Li Xi Yan didn’t say anything.
Zhang Anshi didn’t know what to say.
Hu Yan was so embarrassed that he wanted to pick his feet.
Only Qiu Song is happy.
Finally, Li Xiyan broke the awkwardness and said, “I just saw that this place is good, and I heard that you are guarding this place?”
“Exactly.”
“What’s that one place being built?”
Zhang Anshi came to his senses, “Build the academy.”
“The academy?”
Zhang Anshi said, “I bear in mind the teachings of my master and want to spread his learning, and since I want to spread my learning, of course I have to build a school.”
“So it is.” Li Xiyan was looking at Zhang Anshi more and more smoothly, at least compared to the other three junior brothers, Zhang Anshi was already considered to have a clear brow.
A great sage like Mr. Yang Ming must have had his own intentions since he chose Zhang Anshi, the heart of a sage is unfathomable.
“If it’s a matter of honoring the Sacred Learning, I, as a disciple, would like to offer a small contribution.” Li Xi Yan said in high spirits.
After saying that, Li Xi Yan looked at Hu Yan again, “Ruosi, don’t you want to dedicate your heart and soul?”
Without waiting for Hu Yan to answer.
Zhang Anshi rejoiced, “If we, the six Confucian scholars of the capital, are of one mind, why worry that the great cause will not prosper!”
“Great, haha …… this Yangming Academy, in the future will be able to earn …… no, will certainly be able to light up the sacred learning, benefit the people.”
Zhang Anshi was dancing and excited, leading Li Xi Yan to look left and right here, mainly for fear that he would back out!
This is the Imperial Master, and with such a golden name, it is like adding a thousand percent buff to enrollment.
Zhang Anshi was even afraid that the duck in his mouth would fly away and encouraged Li Xiyan to move here immediately.
“This place is simple and many places have yet to be repaired, but in order to glorify the Sacred Learning, it is incumbent upon our generation to do so, and Senior Li, you don’t want your benefactor to be disappointed with us in heaven, do you?”
Li Xiyan lamented, “I have been secluded for a lifetime, the delay is too long, the so-called heard the way there are successive, senior brother at a young age, has already obtained the master’s mastery, although the old man is on the verge of death, but how can I be willing to live behind others? All listen to the arrangements of senior brother.”
The two of them cheerfully conferred on how to glorify sacred learning.
Only Hu Yan licked his wounds quietly from the sidelines.
Zhang Anshi opened the door for someone to carry Li Xiyan’s luggage.
Li Xi Yan felt the enthusiasm of his senior brother, this senior brother could get along, a person who was really willing to contribute to the Light and Great Sacred Learning.
After placing Li Xiyan, Zhang Anshi began to lie down on the table and design the enrollment poster.
Wine is also afraid of the deep alley.
The design of this poster, therefore, is particularly important.
For example, that master teacher instructed the next head, less to increase and bold Li Xi Yan’s name, almost let Li Xi Yan’s name occupy the whole page.
Subsequently, there is invited to guide Hu Yan, Hu Yan’s name does not have to be too big, but his official position of the State Scholarship Priest, must be bigger than a bucket.
What is this? This is the deck.
Immediately afterward, he had this poster distributed around.
The poster fell into Zhu Di’s hands shortly afterward.
Zhu was surprised, “Mr. Li actually went to the academy ……”
“Your Majesty, the slave girl has heard that Mr. Li has also recognized his master and brother with Zhang Anshi. It’s now rumored outside that there are some kind of six Confucian scholars in the capital.”
Zhu was also curious and immediately said, “Which six are they?”
“One of them is Zhang Anshi, the other is Zhu Yong, and the third is Zhang Yoking ……”
Zhu waved his hand as if he had actually eaten X, “Stop it, stop it.”
Yizhuoha also had a speechless look on his face.
Zhu Di said, “Zhang Anshi this guy, he is not nonsense? He a relative, and …… Zhu Yong and Zhang Yoking and that Qiu Song, what is that …… thing?”
Yizhuoha whispered, “I heard …… that the tuition fee for enrollment is very high, five hundred taels of silver a.”
Zhu Di heard, his eyes narrowed: “Confucius disciples three thousand people …… Zhang Anshi is also ambitious people ah, just …… I worry that Mr. Li body can not eat.”
“Mr. Li seems to be a different person now, his legs and feet are sharp and he speaks in a loud voice.”
“Yes?” Zhu Di finally revealed a little smile, said, “That is very good, hey …… Zhang Anshi is not easy ah, I heartache him. This academy thing, I can not contribute anything, you find time to pass a message to him, teach him to teach learning properly, do not let down that Mr. Yang Ming’s great sage expectations.”
Yiluoha said, “The slave girl obeys the order.”
Zhu immediately said, “Do you think they can recruit readers?”
Also Lostha said, “This …… is not good to say.”
Zhu Di nodded: “I don’t understand the matter of the readers, I don’t understand, I don’t care about him.”
Shaking his head, bowing his head, at this time Zhu Di seriously look at the Zongzhi, then said, “The imperial historian He Liuwen’s Zongzhi came, it seems that the real situation is similar to the Zongzhi of the Annan country, Chen’s extinct heir, I am the one who should be royalized this Hu’s as the Lord of the Annan country.”
Zhu Di said, pondered for a moment, said, “Then turn over to the cabinet to discuss it, if there is no problem, then draft the decree.”
Yilostha nodded his head.
This so-called matter of the Annamese Kingdom is actually a joint petition by the ministers of the Annamese Kingdom to the Great Ming, saying that their state lord, the Chen Clan, because of the lack of a son, and the clansmen have all cut off their bloodline, at this time the Annamese Kingdom is without a monarch.
It was hoped that the Great Ming would enthrone Hu Jiyao, a highly respected auxiliary eunuch in the Annamese kingdom, as king.
After Zhu Di heard about this incident, he did not gullibly believe the words of the group of ministers of the Annamese Kingdom, but sent the royal historian He Liuwen into Annam to understand the situation.
Now He Liuwen not dishonor the mission, roughly explain the situation of the Annan country, this Annan country is indeed the royal family heir, and Hu Jiyak this person is the Annan country of the great master, has a high reputation, can be enthroned the king’s title.
Zhu Di did not for this matter, with too much thought, since the Annan side has no opinion, this Hu Jiyao when the king, is not unavoidable.
Zhu Di in the zhongzhi, mention Zhu pen drew a circle.
…………
“Aunty, Aunty ……”
Zhang Anshi ignored this guy.
As a great scholar and Li Xiyan’s elder brother, Zhang Anshi is too lazy to say anything more to Zhu Zhanji.
“Uncle ……,” Zhu Zhanji followed Zhang Anshi all the way.
Zhang Anshi, on the other hand, went in a huff to greet Crown Princess Zhang first.
Zhang looked at Zhang Anshi with a smile, “I heard that you even worshipped a master.”
Zhang Anshi said, “Ai, it’s a pity that Enshu has already passed away in immortality, I miss him very much.”
Zhang smiled, “This is the virtue of our Zhang family’s ancestors, your brother-in-law was so happy to hear this that he didn’t sleep a wink, but you are now considered a scholar, so you must be careful. There are many people who are quite critical of you, the so-called tree attracts the wind, that’s how it is, you know?”
When Zhang Anshi gave an oh-so-slight sound, he asked, “Where’s brother-in-law?”
Zhang said, “He went to deliberate with the Cabinet early in the morning, saying something about the An Nan country.”
“Annan Kingdom?” Zhang Anshi was surprised and said, “Is it about to enthrone the king of the Annan Kingdom.”
“You are well-informed, the imperial historian who traveled to Annan has only just returned to the capital, and you know about it?”
Zhang Anshi thought in his heart that this imperial historian …… should have received a large number of bribes from Annan after arriving in Annan, so he desperately put in a good word for the usurper Hu.
“Yes, I have a lot of senior brothers, so I know any news early.” Zhang Anshi found an excuse and said.
Zhang said, “Later …… that imperial historian He is also going to come to the East Palace, you can meet it, this person is the same year as Bachelor Xie, and is also a person who is quite learned, and is upright, and both His Majesty and your brother in law hold him in high regard.”
When Zhang Anshi heard it, he just wanted to laugh in his heart, but when he thought about it carefully, if this person was not trusted by Zhu Di, he would not have been sent to understand the situation in Annan.
But what actually happened? The Annan thing is what made a big mess of history!
That Hu, in fact, is just Cao Cao of Annan, killing all the royal children of the King of Annan, and then coercing the ministers of Annan to submit a petition together for the establishment of Hu.
As for the emissary sent by the Ming, that is, that imperial historian He Liuwen, of course, was fed by Hu in Annam, and I don’t know how much gold and silver was stuffed into him; anyway, that place is high in the mountains and far away from the emperor, and whatever He Liuwen says, the Ming court will believe.
The result is that …… the Daming monarchs and ministers, were Annan people played a ball, until an Annan clan son and daughter survived, all the way into the Daming incognito, arrived in Nanjing City to sue, the matter was defeated.
The face of this Ming ruler and his ministers have been disgraced.
