Chapter 159.

When Zhu Di heard the words “Thundering with Joy”, his face carried a hidden anger.

However, his tone even seemed relaxed: “Is that so? What do you think about that?”

Ji Gang slightly lowered his head and said, “Xiang Zhuang dances with the sword with the intention of being a Pei Gong!”

Zhu glanced at Ji Gang, “Who is Pei Gong?”

Ji Gang said, “I don’t dare to say.”

Zhu Di said, “I will pardon your innocence.”

“Xu is Annan Hou Zhang Anshi, Xu is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Xu is ……” Said here, Ji Gang looked up at Zhu Di.

Zhu Di said, “Xu is me, right?”

Ji Gang said, “I will die by all means!”

Zhu Di said, “If it were you, what would you do?”

“A net.”

Zhu laughed, “A clean sweep?”

“Yes.” Ji Gang said, “Your Majesty entered the city of Nanking, and how many people were disrespectful to Your Majesty in the first place, but if you kill them, it won’t be peaceful. When Emperor Taizu Gao was around, he would never be merciful about such things.”

Zhu said, “How do we do it all?”

“I will go and investigate thoroughly.”

Zhu Di stood up, he turned around with his hands behind his back and looked up at the plaque on the wall, which was inscribed with the four words “Honoring Heaven and Ancestors of the Law”.

Zhu murmured, “Go.”

Kizuna wordlessly excused himself.

When Ji Gang went out, Yiluoha came in with a slow step and bowed, “Your Majesty, it’s time to eat.”

Zhu turned his back to Yiluoha and said, “You heard what he said, didn’t you?”

Yilungha said, “The slave girl heard it all.”

“And what do you think?”

“The slave girl thought that Commander Ji was half right.”

Zhu turned around and looked at Yiluoha, “Huh?”

Also Lostha said, “It is right to treat those with evil intentions with a net.”

“But what’s wrong?”

Also lost ha said, “Once a net, it is inevitable that the brocade guards will be very popular, and from then on, the flooding will be uncontrollable. Therefore, the party Ji Commander said that when the Emperor Taizu was there, he could not tolerate such a thing, but the latter …… Taizu High Emperor did a thing that he did not say.”

Zhu smiled, “Really, what is it?”

Also lost Ha Road: “thereafter, Emperor Taizu also clear, Jin Yiwei has too much power, to the point of a hair out of control, so again in a net after the abolition of the Jin Yiwei.”

Zhu Di looked deeply at Yiluoha, “You want me to abolish the Brocade Guards after this?”

Also lost ha shook his head: “slave girl thought …… may not have to be abolished, the brocade guards are indispensable, just ……”

Not waiting for Yiluoha to put words into his mouth, Zhu Di said, “I understand what you mean ……”

Zhu Di slowly sat down, said, “I recognize …… that since I ascended the throne, the country is also regarded as the four seas peace, than that Jianwen’s time I do not know how many times better, but why there are always people who are not convinced of me?”

Yiluoha did not reply at this point, it was beyond what he could explore, and he knew the score.

Zhu Di, however, suddenly turned the conversation at this time, smiled and said, “Zhang Anshi actually drummed up another sale? This guy …… is now sneaky, but it is the same as a certain person.”

Yiluoha subconsciously said, “Someone?”

Zhu Di immediately changed his expression and coldly said, “Do you think I don’t know?”

“This ……”

“You should know that too, shouldn’t you?”

“This …… slave girl ……” also lost ha bitterly smiled, “There are some things that the slave girl does not dare to say, please forgive your majesty. ”

“Motherfucker, this weasel, don’t let me personally catch him if you have the ability, or I’ll skin him.” Zhu Di said angrily.

Yildonha pretends not to have heard the words.

…………

Zhang Anshi is always concerned about the movements of the money changers, credit to build up, is a slow process, but to destroy, but it is just a matter of overnight.

Occasionally, he still found time to visit his sister.

This time when he saw Crown Princess Zhang, he saw Zhu Zhanji sitting on his knees with a resigned face, his head lowered, and he did not dare to utter a single breath.

Zhang was furious.

Zhang Anshi immediately said, ”Sister, what’s wrong with this, he’s still a child! What’s the matter that can’t be said properly? Sister, don’t reprimand him, it hurts me to watch.”

“And you!” Zhang stared at Zhang Anshi: “What did you teach him during the weekdays, all day long he talks dirty, or else he has become a spirit, and when he meets people, he will talk coquettishly, where does he have half the appearance of a royal relative and a royal grandson.”

Zhang Anshi didn’t say anything at this time.

He obediently knelt down and sat beside Zhu Zhanji, drooping his head and not saying a word.

Zhang’s sullen face said: “really a hill of raccoons, in the future others see, I do not know how to joke, in the future do not do ghost face, not coquettish, not to mouth the dirty words.”

“Got it.” Zhang Anshi and Zhu Zhanji said in unison.

Zhang then silently lowered her head again to continue doing embroidery.

Zhang Anshi and Zhu Zhanji, on the other hand, were as motionless as wooden statues.

Only after a little more than half an hour had passed did Zhang softly say, “Go out and play.”

The two of them were like amnesties and hurriedly ran out in a huff.

Waiting outside the temple, Zhang Anshi touched Zhu Zhanji’s head and said, “Look at you, you got into trouble again, causing me to get a lecture. What did you do?”

Zhu Zhanji said, “I scolded the master who taught me.”

Zhang Anshi said, “How do you curse?”

“I said into his mother.”

Zhang Anshi sighed, “You, you, there are some things you can’t say out loud, be polite, you know?”

Zhu Zhanji said in an aggravated manner, “I …… I ……”

“Why are you cursing him?”

“He said Aunty was bad.”

Zhang Anshi winced, “Huh? It’s a good scolding, it’s painful! Zhanji ah, you have a conscience, Aunty is very pleased. Our Zhang family …… really has smoke from our ancestors’ graves to produce a grandson like you.”

Zhu Zhanji said, “I can say that A-Uncle is bad, but he can’t say it, and when he does, I get very angry.”

Zhang Anshi was so moved that he was about to shed tears, “There is hope, there is hope, there are nephews like this, good days are still ahead.”

Saying that, he hugged him intimately and kissed him fiercely twice before asking again, “What does that master of yours say?”

Zhu Zhanji said: “He was so angry that he was going to faint to death, and then howled, and recited what the Sifu lost his face, and also picked up the ruler, and put it down again. And said strange shame, want to hang himself, a few eunuchs to stop him, he will not die, but made a scene to mother consort here!”

“I knew he wouldn’t kill himself, he just wanted to make a scene on purpose so he could teach Mother Superior to clean me up.”

Zhang Anshi appreciated, “You’re really smart, A-Uncle didn’t love you in vain.”

“Uncle, why did they say you were bad?”

Zhang Anshi sighed and said, “When the wood shows in the forest, the wind will destroy it, sometimes when people are too good, it is inevitable that they will be envied.”

Zhu Zhanji lowered his head and looked very torn, “Where is A-Uncle Excellent?”

Zhang Anshi said, “Excellent all over, do you want Uncle to show you my biceps, you’ll know where the excellence lies when you see it.”

Zhang Anshi said that he was going to repeatedly raise his sleeves.

Zhu Zhanji muttered, “But when I look at the way the masters are gnashing their teeth, even though I’m angry at what I’m hearing, I also think that they might be right.”

Zhang Anshi thought in his heart, “We can’t let those corrupted scholars teach his lovely nephew a bad lesson, so he gave up on the idea of displaying his biceps.

Then he said in a serious tone, “Zhanji, think about it, if they are really capable, why does His Majesty only let them come to teach and not let them really go into the real work? Why is that?”

Zhu Zhanji opened his big curious eyes and said, “Why?”

Zhang Anshi then said, “It’s because they are nothing but a mouth.”

“Of course, I have no intention of denigrating the teaching staff, the vast majority of the teaching staff is still good, as a teacher, but they are not the same, they are first of all court ministers, followed by the teaching staff. This made an official into a pedagogue, such a person, what else can be good?”

Zhu Zhanji nodded his head thoughtfully and said, “What does A-Uncle mean ……”

Zhang Anshi patiently said, “You can’t look at what a person says, but what a person does on a regular basis. For example, ah-uncle, he has worked his ass off for our Great Ming and made so many achievements. But what about them? Daily leisure, move the mouth, say a few words of the classics, but all day long to say this, scold that. But you teach such people to do things, but they are handless, such people …… can have what ability?”

Zhu Zhanji thought seriously and said, “What Uncle said is not unreasonable.”

Zhang Anshi said: “Think again, what did Emperor Taizu rely on to win the world, is it by these teachers? Your grandfather, what did he rely on to win the world, or these teachers? These people, named Hanlin, or for the bachelor, or for the readers, speakers, look very noble, but the people of the people’s fat and wealth to support them, in addition to reading, and what is the use of them?”

“Men who live like this are really pitiful, but they are still complacent and self-righteous, so much so that they can’t even look at a talent like A’uncle.”

Zhu Zhanji said, “I see.”

“What do you understand?”

Zhu Zhanji said, “A hundred useless is a scholar.”

Zhang Anshi said, “You can’t say that, there are also many capable scholars, uncle this person is fair, never kill a group of people with one stick.”

Zhu Zhanji, however, said seriously, “My several masters are all a hundred percent useless.”

Zhang Anshi laughed cheerfully, “No wonder Aunty’s daily thoughts are of you, good nephew.”

Zhu Zhanji, however, abruptly asked, “A-Uncle, why didn’t you think about that Miss Xu family.”

Zhang Anshi: “……”

“Why doesn’t Uncle say anything?”

What could he say? Was this something he could discuss with a little doll?

Zhang Anshi said breathlessly, “Who did you hear that from?”

“It’s said outside that you’re Brother Bao and Miss Xu is Sister Lin, and I don’t know who spread the word.”

Zhang Anshi could only say, “You are still young, don’t go prying into such things, when you grow up a bit, you will know.”

Zhu Zhanji looked at him in confusion before looking down and continuing to think.

…………

Every day, Khung came down the mountain on his own initiative to make a fortune.

He took the wooden mantle and when he reached the bazaar, he went from house to house.

He still couldn’t understand why Master Yao was so enthusiastic about making money when the temple was so rich.

Of course, the last time it was Master Yao who brought him down the mountain, but other times, it was with a few shamans.

Empty sometimes want to laugh, he is not going to run away, he has been accustomed to life in this temple, Master Yao is too much to worry about.

Each time he reached the bazaar, he had a new epiphany.

The prosperity here has been built up bit by bit.

It seemed to him, a Buddhist disciple’s eyes, that most of the people here were vulgar, and every one of them only cared about whether they could earn a few more coins tomorrow.

But it is interesting to note that precisely here …… people make a fair trade and accumulate their wealth little by little.

Many of the stores in the bazaar were used to such a monk.

Consequently, when he didn’t need to ask, he was given two coppers to send him out.

He is also not happy or angry, and the chemistry …… does sharpen his heart.

It takes the pride, the self-esteem, that you once had and slowly wears it away. And in its place, a whole new you.

Sometimes Empty had even forgotten who he had been, and only for a moment did he remember anything.

After all, there is a little something that can’t be let go.

He stopped especially every time he passed the money changer.

Stopped to stand in the doorway of the money changer.

Seeing one by one the people go in with their old and young.

The vast majority of people …… are first timers.

Their faces were wrinkled, their complexions dark, their clothing undignified, and their faces alarmed and timid.

But when they came out, many of them were with a smile.

That kind of surprise voice, whispered: “actually really willing to lend …… with this three hundred yuan …… this is good, this year can get through. This year winter, if the corv茅e time is short, go to the oil mill to play a short job, or the next year …… to produce some more grain, you can pay the debt. This three hundred, a year down, but also just pay back twelve more, we are saved.”

That sound of tears of joy, and low mutterings, always burrowed into empty ears.

Empty felt this voice, extraordinarily pleasant.

Even …… the United Money Bank soon …… on the side, opened a United Rice Shop, selling more than some old rice and yellow rice, the price is low, hanging out is the signboard of affordable rice.

I heard …… because this year is a disaster year, some places, the rice family rose, this joint money behind the merchant bank, opened this rice store, lest someone borrowed money after a large number of people to buy rice, resulting in a sharp rise in the price of rice.

So …… many people loaned money, turned around and went into this store, while carrying a bag of rice out.

Empty only stood here in a daze, he did not say a word, always at this time, although the pedestrians around the weaving, but he has a kind of silence as if no one into the state.

What is good and what is evil in the world?

What is virtuous and what is unvirtuous?

These countless thoughts came in a flurry, and his Buddha mind was in disarray.

A little sanyasin who often went down with him always teased him, saying that he wanted to ask for alms from the money changers, telling him not to harbor such delusions.

Empty also just smiled and ignored it.

It was just a few days of going up the mountain, down the mountain, into the temple, out of the temple.

Yao Guangxiao saw that he did not look right in recent days, so he called him and said, “You have delusions again.”

Empty said, “Master, I can’t tell right from wrong.”

Yao Guangxiao smiled bitterly and said, “Buddha is in the human heart, right and wrong are also in the human heart, people don’t need to split right and wrong, as long as they believe they are right, then they are right. Gurus can not be deceived, so …… so if you are a monk, the first thing you can not deceive is yourself.”

Empty said, “Because I can’t fool myself, my heart is even more messed up.”

Yao Guangxiao said, “You have a knot in your heart.”

Empty sighed heavily.

Yao Guangxiao said: “If you have a heart demon, this means that you still have mundane things yet to be done, you can only hope that you will one day be able to cut off with these. And …… these days …… the money you got from the fawning, less than half of the previous day, empty ah, you can not go on like this ah, the fawning is our monk’s watchword, if even the watchword are lost, then what face we have to see the Buddha? ”

Empty and muddled, he nodded in response.

I only heard Yao Guangxiao continue, “Today, when you go down the mountain, you have to pull yourself together, and you remember one sentence: there is nothing outside the heart, and only when you make things happen will you be able to achieve the right results.”

“Yes.”

So Empty went back down the mountain.

He arrived at the fairgrounds.

The Shamans at his side said, “I heard that in the library over there, there are a lot of readers who have a lot of money, so it would be good if we could get some alms from them.”

Empty then headed for the library.

But I saw that although this was the periphery of the library, there were three or two readers, either by the road or on the benches in the grass, chatting.

Empty up, see a few readers are gathered under the shade of the forest gossiping loudly.

This one said, “That Mr. Chen Jidai, is really knowledgeable and informed, his words are really enlightening!”

“Yes, the merchant bank harms the people …… The people will suffer sooner or later, so go on, how can it be? Zhang Anshi and sealed the marquis, see today’s saint, still still be deceived by him, so with the people to compete for profit, this Daming state throne …… hey ……”

“Only Mr. Chen Ji dares to say such a thing, he speaks out for justice and exposes the ills of the times even at the expense of angering the Holy Spirit, he can be described as a man of iron bones, truly admirable.”

“I hear he teaches now, and there are always hundreds of readers going every day. ”

Someone lowered his voice and said, “Today’s saint is far inferior to Jianwen.”

“Hush, be careful what you say, be careful what you say, someone’s coming, the walls have ears.”

Empty listened to these words and was confused again.

He stepped forward and did not take out the wooden bowl, but said, “Several monks, who is that Chen Ji ……?”

“Mr. Chen is the right minister of the Ministry of War at the time …… who does not respect, you inquire to do what?”

Empty said, “Are there so many people touting what he said?”

“That’s for sure.”

Empty, however, blushed miserably, as if all of a sudden, his head was empty.

He couldn’t understand it, it was unthinkable.

Why is this ……

“And where does Chen Ji …… teach on weekdays?”

“At the Fuzi Temple there …… Why, you monks want to hear it too?”

“Brother Liu, I see that this person is odd, so I’d better leave.”

A few readers, and they hurried off.

Empty was still standing in place, not saying a word.

He bit his lip, which was about to burst and crimson blood flowed out.

The accompanying Shamans came up, “Senior brother, senior brother ……”

Emptiness drifted off and came back to his senses, while then glancing at his own senior brother, but all at once he threw the wooden mantle to Shayi and said, “I have a heart demon, I can’t fool myself, and I have an earthly matter unfinished ……”

Saying that, he pulled out his legs and ran away, disappearing in a flash.

Only a few small shamans were left behind, staring dumbfounded at the empty wooden bowl.

………………

Martial House.

Zhu Di gushes and explains the Battle of Annam to Xu Huizu.

He was fluttering his eyebrows, not without a bit of fluttering: “See? We are old, now these young people, and we are different. In the future, these juniors, I’m afraid to be better than the blue, hey …….”

Xu Huizu said, “Your Majesty should not praise them falsely, lest they not know the heights of heaven in the future.”

Zhu Di laughed and said, “Haha, you really will be a few of them, when their own children and nephews love. I see …… that you actually will be a certain guy …… really as your own son or nephew.”

Xu Huizu didn’t get on Zhu’s trap, and remained honorable and unperturbed: “Elders loving and caring for juniors is justified.”

Zhu Di curried a bad taste: “You ah, is too mute, do not understand the wind, no wonder everywhere and I against.”

Xu Huizu, however, moved away from the topic and said, “Your Majesty, I am going to Beiping.”

“There is no need to rush.” Zhu said, “Stay for a few more days! This time I go, but I don’t know when I’ll see you.”

Xu Huizu nodded.

Just at this moment, Yiluoha came in at a brisk pace and said very anxiously, “Your Majesty, Your Majesty ……”

Zhu Di for the first time to see Yilungha so out of sorts: “What’s the matter?”

“Master Yao seeks an audience.”

Zhu Di coldly said, “Master Yao is seeking an audience, what are you doing in such a panic?”

“Because Master Yao he …… also panicked ……”

Zhu sucked in a breath of cold air.

Anything in this world that could make Yao Guangxiao lose his temper, then the sky must be falling.

He immediately squared his shoulders, “Announce it.”

A few moments later, Yao Guangxiao came in and knelt long on the ground, “I will die by all means.”

Zhu was shocked, “What’s going on here? Good for nothing.”

Yao Guangxiao said, “Empty …… fled.”

Zhu raised an eyebrow, “Which one is empty?”

Yao Guangxiao popped out three words from his mouth, “Zhu Yunzhu!”

At these words, Zhu Di and Xu Hui Zu glanced at each other and looked at each other.

Zhu Yunzhu’s matter, the world knows not many people, only and the temple, plus a Zhang Anshi a few brothers know just.

Yao Guangxiao said: “these days, I see Zhu Yun braised has gradually settled in the status quo, so he did not guard, I always see people quite accurate, so this time rash, even thought …… he really can be peaceful, who had thought …… chess difference One thing, was actually cheated by this kid.”

Yao Guangxiao’s loss of composure was predictable.

This time for him, it is simply a strange shame, counting the hearts and minds of people for a lifetime, the results were actually fooled by Zhu Yunzhu crippled, this guy …… actually ran away.

Zhu lowered his eyebrows and didn’t say a word.

Yao Guangxiao said: “This person …… identity is too sensitive, once …… he ran away, if there is any dissent, and by some people who have ulterior motives to take advantage of it, then… … inevitably want to give birth to a great disaster, even if your majesty’s ability, to destroy him but a wave of a finger, but if this triggers a military disaster, is the minister of ten thousand deaths of the crime.”

Zhu Di said, “Send the brocade guards and search immediately.”

Yao Guangxiao smiled bitterly and said, “Now must not let people know that Zhu Yunxu is still alive, and must not let people know that he has fled, if not …… fear of misfortune.”

Zhu said, “You mean …… only a few of us can look for it?”

“Zhang Anshi, Zhu Yong, and Zhang Yoking a few people available.” Yao Guangxiao said, “In addition to this, let the brocade guards go to search for this monk with a similar physical appearance …… The other things must be taken care of by me and others. It is best that no one should be alarmed, Your Majesty …… minister ten thousand deaths, please Your Majesty ……”

Zhu Di waved his hand and said: “The sky has not yet collapsed, you can usually than I have to be steady in the event of a problem, you and I have to get, I can not blame you in any case.”

Said, Zhu Di also said: “speed will be that a few boys to me to recruit it, not …… let them and me a few in the Daming door near the rendezvous, into his mother’s, I finally still women’s benevolence, really want to blame, blame me, is I thought of the difference, left such a scourge. ”

With that said, the crowd split up.

Soon after, Zhang Anshi took a few of his brothers and met up with Zhu Di near the Daming Gate.

Zhang Anshi grinned as soon as he saw Zhu Di: “Your Majesty has such elegant pleasure today, I don t know ……”

Zhu cursed, “Don’t laugh, enter heck, someone wants to revolt.”

Upon hearing this, Zhang Anshi took a step back and stood side by side with Zhu Yong and Zhang Yoking, carefully observing his surroundings and making sure he was safe before he let out a long sigh of relief.

Zhu said, “Speak on the way.”

After a while ……

But someone came on a flying horse.

The leader was actually Ji Gang.

Ji Gang is also wearing a civilian clothes, dismounted, said:” Your Majesty, found, but …… this person after all …… is not trivial, I do not dare to act rashly, lest teach people to know his identity, I have already set up secret stakes in the vicinity. ”

“Where?”

“At the Fuzi Temple.” Ji Gang paused, then added: “There is a tea house there, and on weekdays it gathers a lot of readers, but some days ago it was much cooler, because many of the readers went to the library. Recently, however, Chen Ji has been teaching there, and people have heard of his reputation, so many people go to hear him teach every day.”

Chen Ji ……

Zhu Yunzhu colluded with Chen Ji?

This thought, Zhu Di anger from the heart, cursing: “This animal …… which even if he so many years, long some ability, I also look high at him, really really unexpected is that he was with Chen Ji such a person for the sake of the company, thought so … …that he can achieve great things? If Emperor Taizu knew that he had such a grandson, I am afraid that he would have hated to drown him in the water tank.”

Zhu Di then suppressed his fire and said, “All follow me and listen to my move.”

Zhang Anshi heart more relaxed, the original false alarm, so quickly said: “His Majesty to go out, what the rebels and rebels, is not a hand to capture? I usually see the royal grandson, then always talk about your majesty’s courageous deeds in the beginning ……”

Zhu Di sidelong glance at Zhang Anshi, eyes seem to say: you this kid, did not say I eat manure, running naked.

Between the moment of this eye contact, Zhang Anshi also seemed to understand what was going on, and immediately drooped his head, not saying anything again.

I’ve had a bad year lately, so I didn’t look at the calendar much when I went out.

At that moment, the people went to the Temple of the Lord.

It does seem a lot cooler here than usual.

But a teahouse was bustling with activity.

Zhu Di led the people to go in, and then in the …… most conspicuous place, he really saw Chen Ji.

Chen Ji was red-faced at this time.

This feeling of being touted by millions of people really made him start to swell up inside.

He could even see that wild look in the eyes of many readers.

It was as if, at this moment, he was possessed by a saint, and the right and wrong of the world were all in his hands.

Zhu Di took another side glance and saw a monk, the monk was at a very far distance, there were many people here, he didn’t notice Zhu Di several people, his eyes only looked straight at Chen Ji.

What …… flashed and swept through those eyes was disgust!
