My Brother-in-law is the Prince

  Chapter 343 The Wise King Attacks

  Zhu Di's mood at this time is very complicated.

  The brother I haven't seen for a long time is in front of me.

  The brother in front of him, as always, brought some kind of family comfort to Zhu Di.

  Lonely family and widowed person means that people like Zhu Di shoulder the responsibility of the world and control the power of the world, so they have to govern the world with an attitude of being king and inhumane.

  But it doesn't mean that Zhu Di has no humanity, there must be humanity, but not much.

   But Zhu Di obviously also knew that this brother's coming here this time had caused some kind of rift between them.

  This kind of rift can't even be explained clearly.

  Everyone praises his brother as a virtuous king, who can stop the mouth of the people in the world?

   Praising the King of Shu is actually used to set off Zhu Di. To put it bluntly, it is nothing more than not daring to scold the emperor, so he elevates the King of Shu.

   This made Zhu Di feel vigilant.

  What's more... the left governor right now... is actually the most difficult thing for Zhu Di.

  If Shu King Zhu Chun accepts it, then...Zhu Chun will become the mainstay of resistance to the New Deal. Brothers will inevitably become enemies, and sooner or later they will turn against each other.

  But if he doesn't accept it, I'm afraid...it will bring countless criticisms, thinking that Zhu Di remembers his brother's virtuousness, and what tricks he used behind the scenes.

   It can be said... the most ruthless murderer in this world is not necessarily the sword, but the mouth. Kill with your mouth, separate brothers, put you in a dilemma.

   And the King of Shu...

  Can the king of Shu avoid it again?

  At this time, Shu King Zhu Chun pondered for a moment, and then said: "Your Majesty, I never thought that the ministers would recommend me. My ministers are terrified. After hearing this news, I feel like walking on thin ice. I am extremely terrified."

  When Zhu Di and Zhu Chun played against each other, the eunuchs and the academicians on the side all held their breaths, so when Zhu Chun's voice fell, a needle could be heard in the hall.

  Zhu Di said: "You don't have to be frightened and suspicious. This move of the gentlemen... is indeed beyond my expectations, but in the past dynasties, there are many precedents of clans being virtuous officials."

   "The minister is so dull, I am afraid that I will fail His Majesty's trust."

  Zhu Di smiled slightly. He stared at Zhu Chun, the King of Shu, and said, "The post of Zuo Dudu is really important. I look around the temple, and it is indeed difficult to find a suitable candidate."

  He didn't follow this sentence to continue.

   Instead, he suddenly said: "I heard that you are in Sichuan... how much do the local soldiers and civilians love you?"

  Zhu Chun cannot deny it.

  Because if you deny it, you are deceiving the king!

   What's more, although Shu is far away from Nanjing, how can what happened there escape the eyes and ears of his brother?

  But he couldn't admit it. After thinking about it, Zhu Chun said: "My minister is not talented. I remember the legacy of Emperor Taizu Gao and love the people. It's just that I don't have enough knowledge. The praise of the soldiers and people in Shu is really absurd."

  Zhu Di stood up, put his hands behind his back, walked back and forth a few steps, and then said: "It seems...you are really a virtuous king."

  Zhu Chun immediately said: "Don't dare."

   "There is no need to shy away from it. Now, both inside and outside the government and the public respect you very much."

  Zhu Chun did not appear embarrassed, so he said lightly: "Don't dare."

  Zhu Di said: "If you were the governor of the left, what would you do?"

   "This...my brother..."

  Zhu Di waved his hand and said: "Forget it, I just want to ask you, if I order you to be the governor of the left, would you be willing to accept it?"

  Zhu Chun didn't hesitate: "My brother would like to die and die."

  As soon as this remark came out...

  Yang Rong and the three of them were already calm and exchanged glances with each other.

  They originally thought that if the king of Shu wanted to protect himself wisely, he would definitely choose to die and refuse to accept it.

  After all... how carefree he is as a vassal, a mere left governor is really not worth mentioning.

   And staying in the capital as an official, as a clan, it is really dangerous.

   Not to mention, the situation in this capital is turbulent, and the dark tide is surging. If you are not careful, you will be smashed to pieces.

  Zhu Di was also taken aback, he looked at Zhu Chun in disbelief.

  Zhu Di has already made many plans, such as Zhu Chun repeatedly resigned, and he, the emperor, also made a certain guarantee, so Zhu Chun reluctantly agreed, or...Zhu Chun refused to accept it even if he died.

   All in all, he didn't expect Zhu Chun to agree so quickly.

   This made Zhu Di frowned.

  Zhu Chun is too impatient, the majestic feudal lord, is he still coveting the position of a mere left governor?

  But what a key position is Zuo Dudu...

  Zhu Di said what he said from the bottom of his heart, "I thought you would be modest."

  Zhu Chun said calmly: "Emperor Taizu Gao loves the people like a son...As a son of man, I should be myself..."

   "Okay!" Zhu Di interrupted him with a look of displeasure.

   It is understandable that Emperor Taizu Gao was mentioned for the first time, but now he mentions Emperor Gao of Taizu again, which makes Zhu Di very unhappy.

  I am the Son of Heaven now, you brother, do you use Emperor Taizu Gao to suppress me?

   This made Zhu Di faintly feel that his brother is not so simple, his heart... is very big.

  Zhu Di said lightly: "Since that's the case...then I will grant it."

  Zhu Di glanced at Yang Rong and the others, and said: "Decree, Zhu Chun, the king of Shu, is the governor of the left, and the towns of Yingtian, Zhenjiang, Suzhou, and Songjiang..."

  Yang Rong said: "I obey the order."

  Zhu Di said again: "Please step back, Qing."

   Zhu Chun and others resigned.

  Yi Shiha, but he didn't dare to show his atmosphere.

  Because he knew that before Zhu Chun entered the palace, Zhu Di had ordered someone to prepare a grand banquet in the palace.

  After all, brothers meet. After talking about serious matters, the family closes the door, so they have to talk about brotherhood.

  But just now, Zhu Di didn't mention it, and directly asked Zhu Chun to resign.

  Obviously, Zhu Di now has an aversion to Zhu Chun. Not only that, but he has even developed a sense of vigilance.

  The most important thing is that His Majesty must be in a very bad mood at this time.

  Therefore, Yi Shiha lowered her head, looked at her toes, dared not vent her anger, and tried her best to pretend that she didn't exist.

  But Zhu Di didn't stay here for long, and left soon.

  ...

  Yang Rong and the others resigned.

  Backed to the value room, Hu Guang frowned first and said: "Mr. Yang, you said...the King of Shu..."

  Yang Rong sighed and said, "Don't ask, I don't understand either."

  Hu Guang was surprised and said, "Is there anything else you don't understand?"

  Yang Rong glanced at him speechlessly, and then said: "Everything in the world can be seen clearly everywhere? His Royal Highness, the King of Shu, is by no means a fool, but he made the worst choice, which makes people feel strange."

  Hu Guangdao: "Perhaps he really cares about the world and cares about the rise and fall of the world, so... he risked the disapproval of the world and wanted to take on such a heavy responsibility."

  Yang Rong opened his mouth, and was about to say something, but suddenly paused, and then said: "Maybe."

  Hu Guang said: "Then tell me, can His Royal Highness the King of Shu heal Zuo Dudu's Mansion?"

  Yang Rong smiled and said: "You mean, he and Zhang Anshi... whoever loses wins?"

  Hu Guangdao: "Exactly."

  Yang Rongdao: "People have different abilities."

   "What about the King of Shu?"

"His Royal Highness the King of Shu is a virtuous king. He did a lot of good deeds in the land of Shu. What's more...he is very talented and full of knowledge. I have also read the books he has studied. There are indeed some things that make people's eyes shine. , it can be seen that he is not a mortal."

  Hu Guang's eyes lit up: "In this way, His Royal Highness, the King of Shu, has no chance of winning."

  Hu Guang was a little excited.

   "No." Yang Rong said directly: "The chances of winning are very slim."

  Hu Guang sullenly said, "Could it be that the king of Shu is not as good as that Zhang Anshi?"

Yang Rongdao: "Success or failure is not determined by the wisdom of a single person. What decides him is him and the people around him. If the people around him are only for their own selfishness, but for the sake of their own privileges, they will not be shaken every day. Shouting righteousness, but actually being a dog, how could it be possible to succeed?"

  Hu Guangdao: "Who are the people you are talking about?"

   "Guess?" Yang Rong smiled.

  Hu Guang: "..."

  Yang Rong continued: "Look again, now is actually not the time to draw conclusions."

  Hu Guang could only nod and sigh.

  Hu Guang’s mood is still very complicated. In many cases, it is more difficult for people to get rid of their own background and status to look at something objectively.

  As soon as the decree was announced, there was an uproar in the capital.

   Immediately afterwards, Yin Tianfu, the prefect of Suzhou, the prefect of Zhenjiang... came to Beijing one after another.

  The Zuo Dudu’s Mansion was chosen in a small government office. This place was originally a deserted Town God’s Temple, but now, after repairs, a sign was put on it.

  Suddenly, all the officials who came here praised it.

  His Royal Highness the King of Shu is honest and frugal so far, it is really hard to see.

   Unlike You Dudu’s Mansion, it’s such a big ostentation, and there are watchtowers, it’s really not a thing!

   It's just that when everyone arrived at Zuo Dudu's Mansion, they were greeted by a Confucian scholar named Liu Desheng.

  Liu Desheng greeted everyone, then smiled and said: "Your Highness is not in the Yamen."

   "Oh?" Ying Tianfu Yin Deng Wenda asked in surprise, "But I don't know where?"

  Liu Desheng said: "I have already gone down to investigate the people's sentiments."

  After everyone listened, they couldn't help sighing: "Your Highness loves the people like a son, and you have to understand the people's sentiments, which is really admirable."

   "It is said... His Highness took the initiative to invite Ying... Hey... It seems... There are some things, His Highness can't stand it anymore."

  Everyone is chattering.

   Immediately, he asked Liu Desheng when His Highness the King of Shu would return to the government office.

  Liu Desheng said: "I'm afraid it will take three days."

   "Okay, after three days, isn't it the winter solstice Muxiu? Then... come and pay your respects at that time."

  In the entire Yingtian Mansion, many people set off firecrackers, and it was extremely festive for a while.

   Zhenjiang Prefecture, Danyang County.

   Someone came to Liu's house in Danyang, panting.

  Then, the Liu family was flattered, and the leader was Liu Yang, who personally led several sons out to greet them.

   "Xiaomin never expected that His Royal Highness the King of Shu is actually..."

  Shu King Zhu Chun took a step forward, supported him, and said casually: "No need to be too polite, I'm just looking around."

   After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at his clerk, and said, "The old man is getting old, and it's freezing cold, so he still talks inside."

  This Liu Yang was so excited that tears came out, he hurriedly asked people to prepare food and drinks, and first welcomed Zhu Chun into the mansion for tea.

  Zhu Chun said: "How is the harvest this year?"

   "Drought conditions are not very good." Liu Yang said with a smile: "Caomin people, they depend on the sky to eat. Hey... God is not benevolent, and the grassroots will suffer if they are dissatisfied."

  Zhu Chun nodded, looked at the clerk beside him and said, "Remember."

  Zhu Chun said again: "It's not easy for Mr. to take charge of such a family business. Your sons have all studied, right?"

  Liu Yang said distressedly: "Hey... I'm really ashamed. The three sons are all children. Only the second child may have the hope of being a scholar. The other two... are really worthless."

  Zhu Chun said: "Study is not easy, and fame is even more difficult. You don't have to take it to heart. I have heard about your kind person here for a long time, so I came to see you."

  Liu Yang beamed and said: "I'm ashamed to say... the grassroots... have only studied in schools... they have helped some common people, it's nothing."

   "Oh? Still studied?"

   Liu Yangdao: "The Liu Clan Study was built by grassroots people for the study of the children of the clan. Two scholars have already emerged."

  Zhu Chun nodded and said: "It's not easy to study, but it's rare for you to be able to do this."

  The banquet was ready, Liu Yang hurriedly invited Zhu Chun to the banquet.

   After the host and guests had enjoyed themselves, Zhu Chun left.

  Liu Yang personally sent the land for seven or eight miles, and only at Zhu Chun's insistence did he return home excitedly.

  But Zhu Chun was expressionless, but glanced at the civil servants beside him: "Who is the next family?"

   Wen Li said: "Not far away is the Zhou family in Danyang. The Zhou family has a Jinshi who is well-known in Danyang County."

  Zhu Chun smiled and said: "It must be hard for you to follow me..."

   "Don't dare." The official said Ai Ai Qiqi.

  Zhu Chun smiled and said: "This king himself feels hard work, and the journey is exhausting, not to mention that you have to take care of this king's food and drink at any time, and make an itinerary. Where are you from?"

   Wen Li said: "People from Liuhe County."

  Zhu Chun said: "How many years have you been an official?"

"eleven years."

  Zhu Chun said: "This king sees that you are experienced, and you are an official."

  The official just smiled.

   As he spoke, Zhu Chun led the people and continued to the next house.

  ...

   A report was sent to Zhang Anshi.

  The news about Zhu Chun, king of Shu... too much, too dense.

   This guy not only showed up on his own initiative, but also became the governor of the left.

  In order to prevent him from getting lost again, and this person's identity is sensitive, Zhang Anshi naturally asked Jin Yiwei to keep an eye on him at all times.

  Of course, you must stare, but you must not stare too closely, so as not to be noticed.

  At this time, Zhang Anshi pressed his temples with a tired face, and said: "The king of Shu visited more than a dozen gentry houses... What is this guy... thinking about? He is the left governor, and he is not doing his job properly."

  Chen Li smiled slightly and said, "Captain, don't care about him..."

   "I can't ignore it." Zhang Anshi said: "This king of Shu is no different from other people. His identity is too different, not to mention that now he is expected by everyone. Every move makes me fall into a passive position as the right governor."

  Chen Lidao: "I heard that His Majesty is also very displeased with this."

  Zhang Anshi frowned and said: "Those scholars are really vicious, hey... No matter what, keep watching, of course... Be careful, don't give others a handle."

  Chen Li responded.

Zhang Anshi watched Chen Li go away, at this time, three people broke in, one of them blah: "What's the superintendent, this is my elder brother! I see the elder brother, and I have to report, are you crazy or am I crazy?" ? Even if my elder brother is the emperor, I will..."

   Upon hearing this voice...

  Zhang Anshi was so frightened that his liver and gallbladder split, and with a whoosh, he rushed to the threshold desperately, and he saw Zhu Yong teaching a civil servant.

  He will continue to say: "I am also like this..."

  Zhang Anshi's face turned pale, and he covered Zhu Yong's mouth: "Okay, okay, stop talking, stop talking."

  Brought and pulled hard, finally dragged Zhu Yong in, and then couldn't help but yelled: "Are you trying to kill me?"

  Zhu Yong said: "Brother, I am just making an analogy with them, for fear that they are too stupid to understand the brotherhood between us."

  Zhang Anshi said with a cold face: "From now on, don't say these words anymore!"

  Zhu Yong said in a daze, "What are you talking about?"

  Zhang Anshi said angrily: "That's just the sentence."

  Zhu Yong tilted his head and thought for a while, then said: "I want to see my eldest brother and also report it?"

  Zhang Anshi said: "The last sentence."

  Zhu Yong thought about it seriously, and then suddenly realized: "Oh, look at me, I get angry... so I dare to say anything."

  Zhang Anshi glared at Zhu Yong and the three angrily, and finally said: "On duty today, what are you doing here?"

Zhu Yong seemed to have suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly said: "Yes! Yes! I came to my elder brother to talk about something. In our workshop, it is said that a good thing has been made by tinkering, and the craftsmen have come to announce the good news. They They all say...thanks to those people sent by big brother...if it wasn't for them..."

   "Those people who sent it? Who sent it?" Zhang Anshi was a little confused, and then said: "When did you send it, and who is it?"

  Zhu Yong opened his eyes wide and was speechless for a long time.

   Finally said: "I don't know either, they just say that...Brother... Could it be that those people lied to us?"

  Zhang Anshi frowned and thought hard, but he couldn't figure it out.

  He looked speechless: "These craftsmen are not civil servants after all. It is better to be civil servants. Although they are a little rigid, at least the reports are clear and detailed, and there will be no mistakes."

   "Give it away? I, Zhang Anshi, have a son, but I didn't give it away. Forget it, let's go take a look in a few days."

   After all, they are still brothers, and these days are relatively busy. Now that they finally get together, they can't help chatting happily with each other.

   Two days later.

  A report was delivered to Zhu Di.

  Yi Shiha looked at Zhu Di's face, and said timidly: "Today is the winter solstice, Minister Mu Xiu..."

   "Hmm..." Zhu Di only nodded slightly.

  Yi Shiha hesitated for a moment, and then said again: "I heard... this Yingtian Mansion is empty for thousands of people, and many people... take the opportunity... take the opportunity..."

  Zhu Di glanced at him and said, "What are you taking advantage of?"

  Yi Shiha seemed to have made a lot of determination, and said: "Take this opportunity to see His Royal Highness the King of Shu."

  Zhu Di pursed his lips tightly. He wasn't jealous, but he had a feeling...that his authority was offended.

   This is definitely not chicken guts, but because after the New Deal, Zhu Di clearly felt that many people... are desperately engaging in small tricks to get rid of their morals.

   "The king of Shu has been in office for many days...why did you just go to see it today?"

  When Zhu Di said this, his tone was very calm, but Yi Shiha, who had been with Zhu Di for many years, still felt His Majesty's displeasure.

  Yi Shiha had no choice but to say: "I heard that... the King of Shu took office, so he went to observe the people's sentiments, went to Zhenjiang, and the counties under Yingtian Mansion, and visited many families. The people who were visited all said that His Highness the King of Shu is a virtuous corporal..."

   "Enough!" Zhu Di tried to keep calm, but finally cracked, and said angrily, "I see."

  Yi Shiha hesitated and said: "Your Majesty, do you want Dongchang to drive people away..."

   Zhu Di glared at Yi Shiha angrily: "Your mother, don't you think I'm not shameful enough?"

   For things like these, you can either completely kill all the people who caused the problem, or you can only endure it.

   Chasing people away like this... or other small actions will only attract laughter from the world.

  Yi Shiha also felt as if he had lost his head for a while, so he hurriedly said: "Your slave will die."

  ...

   At this time, outside the Dudu's Mansion, it can be described as a sea of ​​people.

   There are already many scholars in Yingtianfu, plus... the scientific examination is coming soon, and scholars from all over the world gather in the capital.

   What's more, today is Muxiu, and many court officials have also changed into regular clothes.

  Li Shimian was wearing casual clothes, and at this time, he and a few colleagues came outside the government office excitedly.

   Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but be moved and said: "His Highness the King of Shu is so wise, it is really unimaginable."

  One of the colleagues said: "Among the clansmen, the King of Shu is the most virtuous. With him in charge of the Zuo Dudu Mansion, the people will be saved."

   At this moment, a group of people came.

  But Zhu Chun, King of Shu, rode a donkey with a group of civil servants. After entering the city, he came all the way to the Dudu Mansion.

  Someone recognized him and rushed to meet him. After a while, Zhu Chun was surrounded by a tight crowd.

  Zhu Chun couldn't help being moved when he saw this scene that was attracting thousands of people's attention.

  Now, get off the donkey and greet people.

   Then, finally, under the strong protection of many servants and civil servants, he reluctantly returned to the Dudu Mansion.

  But the people outside still refused to disperse.

   Many people even entered the Dudu Mansion and looked outside the lobby.

   After Zhu Chun entered the hall, he ascended to his seat.

  The whole of the Dudu Mansion, as well as the prefects of various prefectures came to see him one after another.

   Zhu Chun is not good at driving out other irrelevant people.

  But at this time...he took a deep breath.

  Nayingtian Mansion Governor Deng Wenda stepped forward with a smile at this time and said: "Your Highness... this time, he understands the people's sentiments and attaches so much importance to the people under his rule. It is really a blessing for the people."

  Zhu Chun nodded and said: "If you serve as an official, you should be the master for the people."

  Everyone nodded, and looked at Zhu Chun with even more admiration.

  Deng Wenda said again: "The officials and others are really lucky to be able to serve His Highness. I just don't know... just don't know Your Highness... what is your order?"

  Zhu Chun said: "There are really some...you wait for orders."

  Deng Wenda and others hurriedly said: "Yes."

Zhu Chun said: "Come here... from now on, each government will start to clear the land and acres, especially the hidden fields and hidden households. Those who are in collusion are treacherous, and once they are found out, they will never be forgiven lightly!"

   As soon as this remark came out.

  The smile on Deng Wenda's face...disappeared suddenly.

  Everyone outside who was originally smiling...the smiles on their faces were stiffly hung on their faces.

  ...

  Chapter 2 should be delivered before 1:30.

  (end of this chapter)
