Chapter 225.

Kizuna said the location.

Zhu stood up.

He looked closely at Ji Gang and said, “I am true to my word.”

Saying so, he drew the saber at Chen Li’s waist.

Very crisply a knife was thrust into Ji Wenlong’s back.

Immediately afterward, the blade ran out over Ji Wenlong’s body.

Ji Wenlong only stifled a grunt and then died.

Seeing this, Ji Gang burst into tears and kept kowtowing, “I …… thank Your Majesty for His grace, thank Your Majesty for His grace.”

Zhu Di then said, “just you, want to die well but not easy, lynching it, do not have to be lynched in public, here to do it, looking for the best swordsman in the capital.”

After saying that, Zhu Di had no more words and walked out with faith.

Coming out of Ji Gang’s cell, Zhu Di let out a long breath.

He looked back at Zhang Anshi and said, “Those party members, leave none of them behind.”

Zhang Anshi said, “I will obey the decree. Where are those envoys from Warrat?”

Zhu said, “Kill.”

His voice was not loud, but in Zhang Anshi’s ears, it was a loud voice.

Zhu Di at this time and said: “Let Chen Li, and that Zhu Jin, with the money bank accountant and the internal thousand lieutenants, fire to that manor, blockade the local, immediately give me a search and seizure. As for you ……”

Zhu Di glared at Zhang Anshi, “Go into the cave, it’s late at night, don’t hang around outside anymore.”

Zhang Anshi said, “I …… know.”

Zhu Di said, “This good wedding is stirred into this. What’s the matter, say it tomorrow, I’m leaving.”

Zhang Anshi said, “I will see Your Majesty off.”

Zhu waved his hand, “No need to send it, there’s nothing to send.”

……

Zhang Anshi returned to the Zhang family.

Here in the Zhang family, some people have been waiting for it for a long time.

In the middle of the night, the groomsmen ran off with men in a murderous rage, is this a human thing to do?

Even if Xu Jingyi didn’t see anything wrong with it, many of the guests from this Zhang family who came to eat wine could be relatives of the Xu family.

Plus someone is arching a fire here.

It upset many of the relatives of the Xu family.

Then I heard Yao Guangxiao say, “Poor monk has eaten so many seats, I have not seen such a person, if this spreads out, I dare not say that poor monk and Duke of Wei are acquaintances, I can not afford to lose this person.”

Jin Zhong said, “Yes, yes, did not put Wei Guo Gong in his eyes at all, that girl doll of the Xu family, in the future there will be bitter to eat.”

Yao Guangxiao said, “It’s just, it’s just, what does it have to do with us, we are outsiders, look at the Xu family people did not raise the knife to chop that Zhang Anshi, what are we talking about what to do, the so-called cause and effect is like this, what is the cause, what is the result of the planting.”

“Monk ……” Jin Zhong, after all, honest, whispered, “you this is too ruthless, you also encourage people to cut the groom. A few words of yin and yang, almost enough.”

Yao Guangxiao whispered: “He Zhang Anshi into this marriage, the next look into marriage, do not know when it! Idle is idle anyway! Don’t worry, that Wei Guo Gong is still stable, will not mess around, surnamed Zhang to block our mouth, not allowed to give back to the temple on a little oil money.”

Kim Chung: “……”

At that moment, Zhang Anshi finally rode back, walking in with a tired face.

Someone exclaimed, “The groomsmen are back.”

So the crowd hooted and hollered.

The people who were still angry just now were now full of surprise, and one by one they pulled Zhang Anshi and said, “Quickly, quickly send them to the cave.”

Zhang Anshi gave a pull and could only scream helplessly, “Don’t pull, don’t pull ……”

It’s been a nightmare.

Zhang Anshi slept until sunrise.

Reflecting on it, although there is still some reluctance to enter the cave, after all, in public, will always feel a little embarrassed.

But today’s feelings are …… really fragrant.

Pleasantly up.

A few of the Xu family’s accompanying maids then came in and waited for Zhang Anshi to get dressed.

Zhang Anshi used to take care of his own dressing, and was very unaccustomed to such a scene, twisting and turning.

Xu Jingyi was already sitting in front of the bronze mirror combing her hair, a head of shiny green silk draped over her shoulders, lining a small face more and more delicate.

At this moment, she looked at Zhang Anshi, who was dressing in an awkward manner, from the bronze mirror and shyly said, “What did husband go do last night?”

Zhang Anshi managed to give the coat on and said, “Ah …… a case.”

Xu Jingyi said in a warm voice, “A small case that also requires the Jinyiwei Commanding Tongzhi to go personally?”

Zhang Anshi didn’t hide it, saying, “It’s a big case, a heavenly case, about Ji Gang, and his treasures.”

“Treasure?” Xu Jingyi blinked her eyes and said, “I heard people say that Ji Gang has done many bad things and is corrupt, so in that case, wouldn’t the palace’s internal coffers be filled up again?”

Zhang Anshi said, “Sort of.”

Xu Jingyi said, “My aunt said that His Majesty is often so happy that he stays up all night because of the silver he earns.”

Zhang Anshi perked up, “Ya, Your Majesty is such a person.”

Xu Jingyi busily said, “You can’t talk nonsense, auntie said it can’t be spread out.”

Zhang Anshi smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I’m tight-lipped.”

After saying this, Zhang Anshi said, “It’s a good thing I’m not greedy for money.”

Xu Jingyi smiled sweetly, “One must not be greedy for wealth, yet one must not be without wealth either. The Zhang family also has a lot of silver, in addition to profitability, the most important thing is to guard your own silver to benefit your children and grandchildren in the future.”

Zhang Anshi nodded his head quickly, “You’re right, we have to guard our silver, we can’t let anyone get any ideas.”

Xu Jingyi, at this time, with the help of her maid, had already freshened up and looked back at Zhang Anshi, saying, “Later, it’s time to pay respects to sister.”

Zhang Anshi froze and said, “Why do I still have to pay my respects?”

Xu Jingyi said with a blush on her face, “We are newly married, this time we should go to see the in-laws, it is only a pity ……”

With a slight lick of her vermilion lips, she said, “Elder sister is a mother, so at this time it is time to pay respects to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess.”

“Oh.” Zhang Anshi said, “I see, but Sister didn’t explain.”

Xu Jingyi then said, “She probably doesn’t care, because she loves you as a brother, as long as you get married, and knows that her husband doesn’t like red tape.”

Zhang Anshi was touched and said, “You are right, Sister is too good to me, only that Zhu Zhanji has no conscience.”

Jingyi Xu: “……”

Xu Jingyi stroked the disheveled silk at her temples and continued, “But no matter if Ah Sister has not explained, we have to go, the more one’s own family members, only the more one has to look at them.”

Zhang Anshi grinned; “You’re right about everything.”

So the couple got into a carriage and went to the Eastern Palace together.

Crown Princess Zhang was overjoyed to hear that Zhang Anshi had brought his new wife.

When Zhu Zhanji saw Zhang Anshi, he was even more extraordinarily close, and ran to Zhang Anshi from afar, rushing into Zhang Anshi’s arms, his head squeezing towards Zhang Anshi’s arms, “Uncle, you came to see me.”

Zhang Anshi subconsciously said, “According to the rules …… not right, just to see you.”

Zhu Zhanji a kind of lost and found elation.

Unfortunately, although all of a sudden got Zhu Zhanji’s proximity, Zhang seems to have little interest in Zhang Anshi, he pulled Xu Jingyi went to the side to talk.

Soon, Zhang Anshi suffered the same treatment as Zhu Zhanji, and the two of them sat on the steps under the corridor of the bedchamber, with their hands clasping their knees and their knees on their chins, staring stupefiedly at the eunuchs and the palace maids as they walked to and fro.

Zhang Anshi said: “A uncle last night to catch thieves, you do not know, many of the thieves, one by one ferocious, but A uncle appeared, they will be the ass, this is the so-called …… evil does not suppress justice …… as long as the righteousness of the spirit The spirits and devils are not two, naturally scared of the soul.”

Zhu Zhanji drooped his head and said, “Uncle, today I don’t want to listen to you bragging about this.”

Zhang Anshi was furious, but after thinking about it, he smiled again: “Hey, it’s all my uncle’s fault, I didn’t realize that you’ve grown up, that’s why I told things so simple, in fact, in the process of catching the thieves, is it not as simple as a sword. These thieves, each and every one of them is incredibly shrewd, A uncle is racking his brains, fighting with them, the hardships of which outsiders have no way of knowing.”

Instead, Zhu Zhanji said, “Uncle, will you still come to seek me out to play in the future?”

Zhang Anshi stroked his back and said in a warm voice, “Of course, this is of course, we are the closest relatives, A-Uncle in the world, there is only a nephew like you, even if there is a nephew coming out in the future, I won’t recognize it, A-Uncle in the world is the most heartfelt for you.”

Only then did Zhu Zhanji say, “You are not allowed to lie to me again.”

Zhang Anshi said, “Do you want A-Uncle to cut his heart open and show it to you?”

Zhu Zhanji was very straightforward, “Then you dissect me.”

Zhang Anshi wanted to cry and said, “You have no conscience.”

…………

Many of the people in the capital probably didn’t know much that night.

But most of the hundred officials in the court, but most of them vaguely know something.

The Kizuna party was wiped out in one fell swoop.

But many people are not happy.

In their opinion, this is indeed worthy of congratulations, but in the midst of the great joy, there is a hidden worry.

Because it means that a more saintly and powerful Kijang is about to rise.

Since then, this Jin Yiwei almost manipulated in the hands of the relatives Zhang family, more difficult to deal with.

And what is really worrisome is, as the reading public among the city is now talking about.

It’s the royal government school academy that’s posted up in that government school academy.

Zhang Anshi pulled the emperor down, in fact, is to give the cadets gold, is trying to use this to promote his new style of education.

But for book readers, it’s not about hot eyes anymore.

Ordinary hot eye thing, tolerate also tolerate, but the bastard surnamed Zhang, he is going to plow the saint’s root which.

Anyone is clear, Confucianism are carried forward, the most important reason, is recognized by successive rulers, from the Han Dynasty, the sole respect for Confucianism, although occasionally some emperors do not have a cold, but the vast majority of the time, the emperor, no matter which family, most of the time, or will be placed in the position of Confucianism sole respect.

But now …… this matter of the disciples of the Son of Heaven is obviously a fundamental problem that has been violated.

That is, somehow, the government school academy, although the readers scoffed at it, in a sense, seemed to have the emperor’s endorsement.

That would be intolerable.

It’s digging up the ancestral graves of the saints.

Right in the middle of all this talk.

Xie Jin naturally also heard some rumors.

It was just that at this point, he was much more composed than he had been before.

For him, this is a good thing, the readers have rarely encountered a sense of crisis, precisely because there is no sense of crisis, so they attack each other, there is a real enemy, in order to make the readers really united.

He was in the public room, drawing up the ticket.

It was not until three o’clock in the morning that His Majesty came to call for an audience.

Xie Jin then, as usual, asked Hu Guang and Yang Rong to go to Chongwen Hall.

“Why did Your Majesty get up so late today?” Hu Guang muttered.

Yang Rong smiled, he knew the answer but didn’t answer.

Xie Jin said, “I heard that I left the palace last night.”

Hu Guang sighed and wanted to say something, but once he saw Yang Rong shaking his head slightly at him, he stopped his mouth.

Xie Jin then asked the eunuch leading the way, “Eunuch, why did His Majesty summon us to meet him at Chongwen Hall?”

This eunuch replied, “His Majesty has also summoned all the ministries and departments, as well as all the Hanlin to meet with him, as if to talk about the matter of striking out against the Tartars, and yes, there are also the princes as well as Zhang Anshi, the Commander of the Jinyiwei.”

Xie Jin nodded.

When I arrived at the Chongwen Hall, Zhang Anshi really came.

Xie Jin stepped forward and greeted Zhang Anshi with a smile, “Marquis Annan is newly married, yet he still has to worry about state affairs.”

Zhang Anshi grinned, “Shame on you.”

Standing in the middle of the hall, Duke of Wei Xu Huizu kept staring at Zhang Anshi, which made Zhang Anshi feel that there was something different in his old husband’s gaze, which caused him a lot of pressure.

Well, at that moment, Zhu Di came, and he looked tired.

Ministers salute, Zhu Di said: “I have occasional discomfort today, some fatigue, so gossip less, levy Tartar thing, temporarily slow down, has been allocated to go to the soldiers and horses in Beiping, so that it is stationed, the rest of the pair of horses and men, still stay in the capital, Hanlin Yuan to draw up an imperial edict, explaining the reasons for the Wen Yuange, Ministry of the Army, five military governor’s office, to be drawn up a strike statute out of the various ministries and men, how to Settlement, how to allocate food and grass, and border towns, and how to deal with.”

The ministers looked at me and I looked at you.

But they all said, “I will obey the decree.”

Zhu Di said: “Ji Gang’s crime is unpardonable, when the death penalty, but he is, after all, Jin Yiwei, the Jin Yiwei family law disposal, there is no need to make the world know. His remnants, but also to be eliminated as quickly as possible. Zhang Anshi, this is handed over to the Southern Township Division to do.”

Zhang Anshi said, “I obey the decree.”

Zhu Di said, “Secretary Zhang’s laborious efforts, the Secretaries should follow suit.”

As soon as this statement was made, more people’s faces began to look uncomfortable.

Xie Jin’s face is very bad, good in Zhu Di directly killed one of his sons, if it was before, I am afraid that he would have jumped out, big speech, but now, but always do not say a word.

At this moment, however, someone came forward and said, “Your Majesty ……”

The one who stood out was Wu Xing, the Right Capital Defense Minister.

Wu Xing saluted, then said, “I dare to ask Your Majesty, do I also want to follow the example of the Marquis of Annan and go to catch thieves?”

Zhu Di’s face sank, “What does the Secretary mean by this?”

“I just think that ministers have ministerial duties, and the Brocade Guards have Brocade Guards’ duties, and Your Majesty should not favor one over the other.”

He is the adjutant of the Capitol, and the Capitol royal historian can sniff out matters.

Zhu Di frowned, “You think I’m being generous?”

“Exactly.” Wu Xing squarely said, “I thought that the duty of the Brocade Guards is to catch thieves, while the duty of the hundred officials is to shepherd the states and counties for your majesty and assist your majesty in ruling the world. Dare I ask Your Majesty, is it easier to rule the world, or is it easier to catch thieves?”

Zhu pondered for a moment before saying, “None of it is easy.”

Wu Xing said, “But I am now hearing rumors in the streets.”

Zhu Di then asked, “What are the rumors?”

“It is said outside that His Majesty has relied too much on the Brocade Guards. Governance of the world, need to seek the way of governance, what is the way of governance, of course, is the way of the saints. This is the way of the saints, profound, countless readers up and down the search, but also to learn the skin only, can already be used for life. But …… I dare to ask, that the South Township Division under the jurisdiction of the official school school, what is learned and what skills it? These do not appear in the hall of miscellaneous learning, learning to the world and what is the use of it? But your majesty trusted Zhang Anshi, but regarded this kind of learning as the right way, is this to your majesty’s ambition, is it the opposite way?”

Wu Xing appeared righteous and continued, “But His Majesty regards the official school academies, those who almost even struggle to read and write, these people don’t know Confucius and Mencius, they don’t know anything about the Four Books and Five Classics, but His Majesty treats them as his own disciples, and now, the whole world is talking about it, and they all say that the people who are chickenshit are going to ascend to the great halls of elegance.”

Said, Wu Xing’s eyes are red, he bowed down, excitedly said: “I these words, is not aimed at the An Nan Hou, just think, all dynasties, is the sacred learning first, miscellaneous learning does not enter the stream. I heard many readers of the righteous indignation, but also think that it may just be whether the readers of the official school academies have some misunderstanding, but the teachings of the people searched their teaching materials to, is really unpleasant to look at. Your Majesty ah …… these things, neither can prosper the country, nor can the state, purely misleading, if Your Majesty will be this kind of dregs of learning, to be the world’s people’s model, then …… the country’s decline, the state of the country is dying, will not be far away. ”

Many people couldn’t help but look at Wu Xing when these words came out.

Xie Jin couldn’t help but applaud it in his heart.

When Zhu Di heard this, his frown deepened.

He actually wanted to get into this Wu Xing’s mom.

This guy, though, speaks with earnestness and justification. By the way, what are the things taught in the government school academy?

In fact, Zhu Di himself does not understand, just know that this is the official school academy, Zhang Anshi run.

Seeing that His Majesty is silent.

At this time also someone volunteered to stand out and said: “Your Majesty, if you want to seek the way to rule the country, why do you need to seek far away, all dynasties, how many saints, are not all relying on Confucianism to rule the world? Your Majesty …… the matter of the official school academy is questionable, but please, Your Majesty, consider it carefully.”

With that, more people gathered the courage to step forward.

Zhu Di scanned the crowd and had to say to Zhang Anshi, “Secretary Zhang, tell us.”

Zhang Anshi had actually known for a long time that the readers were now full of grievances.

This is, after all, a concept inherent in a thousand years of resistance. These people who oppose it may not all be bad people, but each and every one of them is bound to be filled with righteous indignation.

Zhang Anshi said, “Your Majesty …… Chen can t speak to them.”

Chu: “……”

You can’t even say it, do you want me to say it? I don’t even know what is taught in the official school, what are you teaching me to say?

See this scene, Xie Jin this time Xu stood out: “Your Majesty, I also thought, that the official school students, now claiming to be the son of the emperor’s disciples, will teach the world’s readers, a great disappointment, your majesty for the sake of the countryside and the gods of earth and grain, you should be careful.”

Right at this moment, suddenly in the extreme distance, there was a sudden boom.

Rumble ……

It was only a vague sound though.

The monarchs and ministers, however, looked amazed.

But whenever there was such a violent explosion, everyone’s first reaction was to look at Zhang Anshi.

Zhang Anshi was also confused.

Zhu Zhui sidelong glance also lost ha.

Also lost the ha will realize, hastily out of the temple.

Until after an incense burner ……

Yiluoha came hurriedly, “Your Majesty, Your Majesty ……”

Zhu said, “Speak.”

Also lost ha said:” that one of the manor …… within the thousand households …… and the soldiers and horses that are transferred to the strong attack …… ”

Zhu frowned, “That manor of Ji Gang’s?”

Also lost Ha nodded: “Inside the thousand households of people, with people to go, only to know, the original that Zhuangzi, is actually in the mountains, and …… with are extremely thick high walls, as if the moat general. That Ji Gang …… use their own authority, there requisitioned a large number of manpower and material resources, spent countless gold and silver, actually will be there, repair as if the tortoise shell general.”

“Not only that, that thing …… is halfway up the mountain, the artillery is not helpful, this manor …… actually also has a large number of artillery and gunpowder, obviously Ji Gang use the position, secretly private, there are a lot of, are new gunpowder. The people in the manor, mostly Ji Gang’s partisans, all of them are vicious, they know that the manor was attacked, must die, so the resistance.”

“The Inner Chitose Office has captured a person who knows the details of the manor. According to his statement, roughly know the details of the manor, inside the wall, half a zhang thick, the wall can walk on the horses and men, with all the stone, not a simple rammed earth, and there are tens of thousands of pounds of gunpowder, but also hides countless food, weekdays …… there are hundreds of people entrenched, last night around the capture of the remaining Jigang, a lot of fleeing the remaining Jigang, are going there. Ji Gang remnants, are going there, and now has gathered more than 1,700 people, they use the terrain, and the solidity of the manor, each have a man of the world’s momentum. The inner thousand households have turned to the model battalion for help, and the model battalion thinks that the loss is too great if they attack strongly, Chen Li made a decision on the spot and asked the warrior battalion to go and help ……”

Also lost ha to cry, the warrior battalion is the eunuchs led ah: “early this morning, within the thousand households passed the note, slave girl at that time, assisting them to break the thief, it is deserved, so ordered to supervise the warrior battalion of the eunuchs to personally lead the troops to attack the …… results … …The result …… of more than a thousand warrior battalion of men and horses, lost more than half, what tricks are used.”

Inner Chitose lacks great virtue ah, they feel the loss is big, so they lied to the warrior battalion to go, this is the end, this is the elite of the palace, more than 500 people died.

What’s even more frightening is that the thieves in that manor didn’t lose a single person.

When Zhu Di heard this, he was greatly alarmed and said, “Let someone fetch the public opinion map at fire speed, I want the public opinion map of that manor.”

The Duke of Cheng, the Duke of Qi, and the Duke of Wei, a few of them, also shook their spirits.

Yizhuoha did not dare to slow down, and quickly went to pass the order again.

Then the public opinion map drawn by the captured rebel who knew the details was sent.

Zhu Di spread out the map and ordered the ministers to look at it.

This look, Zhu Di also can not help but frown: “It is really a one man, ten thousand men can not open the terrain, this Ji Gang …… really wolves and wild heart, actually spend countless, to establish such a firm fortress here.”

This is simply a huge fortress relying on the mountains, such a fortress, ordinary people with more silver, would not dare to build, and only Ji Gang, who specializes in exposing other people plotting rebellion, can be so unscrupulous.

Zhu Di and Xu Huizu, Zhu Neng, Qiu Fu several are connoisseurs, but a look at the opinion map, each face stony.

“What do the Secretaries think?”

, “Your Majesty, with this kind of terrain, if we forcefully attack, the losses will be too great.” Qiu Fu said, “We can only besiege and trap them to death.”

Zhu Di shook his head, “They have at least a few months of food, if they save a little bit of use, may hold out to half a year, could it be that the foothills of this Zhongshan Mountain, not far from the Xiaoling Mausoleum and the capital, but also allow there are thieves and invaders, entrenched for half a year?”

Zhu Neng said angrily, “Your Majesty, give me 30,000 troops and horses, I will attack strongly day and night, and within half a month. I will definitely take it.”

“How much damage will it cost?” Zhu looked up at Zhu Neng.

Zhu Neng was silent, he lowered his head, the loss was too great, and the attack must be elite soldiers, so many elite soldiers filled in, heartache.

Xie Jin and others watched from the sidelines, each with a look of indifference.

But at this time, Zhang Anshi suddenly said, “Xie Gong, and …… that that who …… dares to ask what is your name?”

Zhang Anshi looked to Wu Xing.

Wu Xing did not have the good taste to say, “Wu Xing, as long as the metropolitan inspectorate ……”

Zhang Anshi said, “Well, well, Duke Wu, didn’t you say that you have the policy of ruling the country and securing the state? Come, just ask you guys to take this Zhuangzi, dare to ask …… how many readers this needs, you open a mouth, I will go to the street to catch readers to let them eliminate the thieves and rule the country.”

Xie Jin: “……”

Wu Xing said angrily, “What kind of words are these, this is …… this is ……”

Zhang Anshi said, “Can’t really need to rule the country when the readers are missing, right, not to rule the country to calm the world? This world is not peaceful, is this time, you enjoy the merit and fame, as well as high-ranking officials, shouldn’t you make a little effort?”

Wu Xing said, “The study of the saints focuses on teaching the people.”

Zhang Anshi said, “That’s better, so many rebels, resisting, so please ask Lord Wu to go and talk to them, and properly indoctrinate them.”

Wu Xing said, “You’re just messing around.”

Zhang Anshi but laughed: “No, I’m not messing around, because …… the official school academy, teaching, is how to solve the problem of the method. Your saint’s learning, can’t teach things, this way of governing the country, an and not to mention, but how to settle the country, how to calm the world, as long as I use my official school academy’s learning, it can be handy.”

At these words, everyone stared at Zhang Anshi.

Zhu Di said, “Zhang Anshi, do you have a solution?”

Zhang Anshi said, “Your Majesty, it will not cost a single soldier, and it will be resolved in a day and night.”

The monarchs and ministers sucked in a breath of cold air.

Seeing the crowd with suspicion, Zhang Anshi looked at Wu Xing with a smile, “Does Lord Wu believe it?”

If Wu Xing said he believed it, it would be the same as slapping his own face.

Nature shook her head, “Nonsense.”

Zhang Anshi said, “What if, in one day and night, my official school academy, with its own learning, solves it? How do you say?”

Wu Xing glanced at his colleagues around him, many of whom were already filled with righteous indignation.

Wu Xing then said, “I, Wu Xing, will take your surname.”

Zhang Anshi said, “Okay, Lord Zhang, let’s make a deal.”
