Zhu Zhanji on the side was a little confused. He didn't want to understand why the boss still said that he was under control.

Zhu Zhangui glanced at him and his mother, who was also a little confused, said with a smile: "This is a duel between the monarchy and the courtiers. The emperor cannot back down. This result is also within the expectations of my grandfather and me."

"Actually, I can tell you that the worst plan my grandfather and I made was that all civil and military officials opposed it, but I didn't expect that the generals were so afraid that the old man was so afraid. At the last moment, they chose to admit their cowardice."

"But it's good, they've admitted their cowardice, we can relax a bit, and Dad doesn't have to be so tired."

Zhu Pangpang is worthy of being one of the most powerful princes in the history books. From Zhu Zhangui's words, he understood some meanings.

"You mean that your grandpa sings about red faces, and I sing about bad faces."

Zhu Zhangui stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, "Yes, the emperor cannot compromise, but for the sake of the stability of the court and the world, the prince has room for negotiation."

"Actually, you are the palliative agent between my grandfather and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty. Just like my great-grandfather back then, the role of the palliative is between the great-grandfather and the courtiers. Otherwise, you would think that the crown prince is just a prince."

"Every status and position in the imperial court has its role. The prince is not only the prince, but also a step up for the emperor and his ministers."

"Let me tell you this!"

Let the three sit down, Zhu Zhangui poured a cup of tea for each of them and explained to them: "In fact, at the beginning, Grandpa wanted to take this opportunity to propose these two policies, but I opposed them. After all, this time period is not my ideal. time period."

Zhu Pangpang nodded. He also felt that it was really too hasty to propose these two systems.

"My idea is to wait for the new students to have a certain foundation in the imperial court before proposing this system. Even if the civil servants object, we will have someone to take over."

"But for my idea, grandpa rejected it."

"In Grandpa's words, as the new learning gradually shows signs of threatening Confucianism, Confucianism has begun to unite the front and jointly suppress the new learning."

"Grandpa proposed this system at this time, but it was not actually for the tax money collected. Although our court is not rich, it is not short of money. Although the money is a lot, it has not yet reached the point where grandpa and the officials collectively turned against each other. the point."

"My grandfather and I chose this time to act. The main purpose is to make Confucianism internally chaotic and prevent them from uniformly targeting new learning and hindering the growth of new learning."

"After all, we do not escort new learning. Under the suppression of Confucianism in the future, it will be difficult for new learning to grow."

After listening to Zhu Zhangui's explanation, Zhu Pangpang nodded thoughtfully.

"In fact, I have also noticed this. With the new students entering various departments for internships in the past two years, those officials of the Confucianism School have come to find ways to attack these people, wanting to destroy the self-confidence of the students of Xinxue, or Use all kinds of corrupt methods to win over these students."

"I also discussed this matter with Xie Jin, but neither Xie Jin nor I can do anything about it."

"If you don't experience wind and rain, how can you see a rainbow? If you want to grow up, you can't become a talent without going through these hardships."

Zhu Zhangui nodded in agreement, but then said helplessly: "But Xinxue is still too tired and weak. Apart from Xie Jin, he doesn't even have a decent supporter, and even Xie Jin himself is not a member of the Xinxue school. He is also just a leader we pick out temporarily when we have no choice."

"So new learning takes time, and we need to buy them time for the first batch of talents to grow up."

"But the Confucians have already sensed the threat of new learning. They have united together and started to target new learning people in a planned and purposeful way. If they don't kill new learning, they will not let it go."

"So my grandfather and I thought of a way, that is to find an opportunity to re-provoke Confucianism's confrontation between the north and the south, let them fight among themselves first, and give new learning time and space to grow."

Zhu Pangpang fell into deep thought.

This method is indeed good, but Confucianists are not idiots, and it is impossible for them to fight among themselves without certain interests.

The system of government-gentle payment of food itself is a violation of the interests of Confucianism. It may be difficult to use this reason to make them fight among themselves.

After thinking about it for a long time, Zhu Pangpang looked at Zhu Zhangui in confusion.

"What did you and your grandfather plan? You're going to need me for this, so you should tell me the truth."

Zhu Zhangui leaned close to Zhu Pangpang's ear with a smile, and whispered a few words.

"It's that simple!"

Zhu Pangpang stared.

Zhu Zhangui spread his hands.

"It's as simple as that, Dad, human nature is very complicated, and the same kind of people can't see others so that they can suffer."

"It's like two workers who work in a shop at the same time. They do the same job and suffer the same punishment, but they get paid differently. If you were you, your mental balance would be out of balance."

"This person, once he becomes jealous and dissatisfied, the vows he made together and the morality of the rivers and lakes are all bullshit."

"It's just that you have to suffer a little during this process, but it will take two or three days. Can you bear it?"

Zhu Pangpang rolled his eyes angrily.

"You have made arrangements. Even if I can't hold on, I have to hold on. Who will let his father, your son?"

After finishing speaking, Zhu Pangpang's troubles were swept away, and he said cheerfully to Mrs. Zhang: "Let the kitchen prepare more delicious food, I will suffer in the next two days."

Mrs. Zhang, who didn't hear what the father and father said, was very curious, but she thought that there must be a reason why her son and husband didn't say anything, so she could only suppress her curiosity and go to the kitchen to prepare.

After dinner, Zhu Pangpang deliberately changed into a pair of thick cotton trousers, adjusted his expression, and was about to walk outside the East Palace.

Before leaving, he told Mrs. Zhang, "Don't wait for me, I may not be back these two days."

Mrs. Zhang, who had been curious and tense in her heart, finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"What the hell are you two doing? Why are you still wearing big cotton trousers when you go out?"

Zhu Pangpang tightened his belt tightly, and after making sure that the cotton trousers would not fall off, he replied, "What else can we do? Go and intercede with those civil servants."

"You are crazy. They offended the old man so badly. Go and intercede for them. You are not afraid that the old man will anger you."

Zhu Pangpang spread his hands helplessly, "Who asked me to be the prince? This is what I should do. Besides, father and son have already made arrangements, so I just went through the motions. And I'm going out for two days. God, if someone comes over, you cry, cry always!"

Mrs. Zhang rolled her eyes, "I know, isn't it just to be pitiful? It's not once or twice, I've already gotten used to it, that is, with the support of your son in the past two years, otherwise I would have been blind from crying."

"Hehe, that's right, that's fine, I'll go first, I have to go to Jinyiwei first, I can't let that guy Ji Gang mess around and beat up all these officials, when the matter is over There are a bunch of sick patients, and I am the one who gets tired in the end.”

After finishing speaking, Zhu Pangpang walked out of the East Palace unsteadily, and headed to Jinyiwei in the sedan chair that had been prepared a long time ago.

"Hey, it's already at this time, and I'm still playing tricks. This family is enough. In my next life, I will just beg for food, and I won't have any contact with your royal family. I'm just calculating and guessing all day long. Tired of being an animal."

Watching Zhu Pangpang leave, Mrs. Zhang cast a glance at the two sons who were teasing the dog, angrily walked up to pick up the dog, turned around and left.

There were only Zhu Zhangui and Zhu Zhanji who were holding the bone and the bun, looking at each other.

"Boss, what should we do? They just don't make a sound, let them choose, they don't choose, they just sit there and don't move. This is very urgent. If we don't do anything, the Commander-in-Chief will kill us."

In Jinyiwei Prison, a group of Jinyiwei jailers looked worried at the officials sitting cross-legged in the cell.

Since these officials were sent in, they sat there motionless, either closing their eyes and meditating, or staring at something in a daze.

According to Jinyiwei's reform, new prisoners who enter the cell are given special treatment and can choose their punishment.

The royal guards went about their business as usual, and immediately asked these officials what kind of torture equipment they wanted to choose.

As a result, the officials either ignored them or swore at them.

If it were one or two officials, the guards in Jinyi would not be so polite, and they would act arrogantly when they got here. It is really your family who opened the prison.

Do you know who we are? We are Jin Yiwei who are authorized by the imperial power to kill first and then play later, not those boneless catchers in the yamen.

Although I was upset and wished I could drag one or two out to beat them up a few times, none of the crowd made a move.

There is no way there are too many people, and the entire court center is here.

If it were said that all these people were beheaded, even the Jin Yiwei would not believe it.

It is estimated that these elders are just going through the motions when they come here.

If you accidentally offend him, you will probably be impeached every day.

Their commanders and envoys are not afraid of His Royal Highness and the Emperor's protection, but these little fish and shrimps are not protected by anyone.

So for a while, the entire bottom of Jinyiwei was worried, and the higher-ups urged them to do it all the time, but they didn't know how to start.

"Let's find a few small officials to scare the chickens and the monkeys first. It's not an option to procrastinate like this. If the higher-ups find out, we'll all have to eat."

Jin Yiwei scratched his head irritably, gritted his teeth, and decided to move a few small officials first.

"it is good!"

Hearing the order from the head, the brocade guards immediately started, striding towards the cell, ready to go in and arrest people.

"Bastard, what do you want to do?"

"Get out!"

There was a roar, and a dozen senior officials of the fourth and fifth ranks stood up, stopped in front of Jin Yiwei, pointed at their noses and cursed.

"What are you doing? What are you doing? I really think it belongs to your family. You're still playing tricks when you're here. Do you know how to write dead characters?"

His subordinates were stopped, and the officials pointed their noses at him and cursed at him, and the flames of Jin Yiweizhao's prison burst out all of a sudden.

"Damn, I'm just concerned about your identities, and I'm afraid that you will be settled after the autumn. You fucking think you are cloves. Why are you pretending here?"

"What kind of skill is it to pretend to be low-level people like us? If you have the ability to stand up to the emperor, if you have the ability to go to the Taimiao and hit the table! Everyone is here, how can you be as soft as an egg in the Taimiao?"

"Returning to be a disciple of a sage, and a scholar, oh my, I've seen too many people like you and it's disgusting."

"Get out of the way for me, and hit whoever is blocking you first."

Under the adoring eyes of his subordinates, the head of Jin Yiwei Zhao Prison walked into the cell and pushed away the officials who blocked the way, pointed at their noses and yelled at them.

Being pointed at the nose by such a small person and yelling at them, the faces of several officials were livid with anger, and their eyes were as wide as bull's eyes, staring viciously at the head of Jin Yiwei Zhao Prison.

"Get out of the way, everyone. We are not afraid of anything. Whatever means they have, just use it."

When the two sides were in a stalemate, Yang Shiqi, who was sitting behind the crowd, opened his eyes and let the blocking officials get out of the way.

"Old man!"

An official shouted anxiously.

This is not a joke, once they are taken out, they will suffer inhuman torture.

"I have no fear in my heart, why be afraid of them, get out of the way!"

Yang Shiqi looked at him and let out a low shout. The official gritted his teeth and glared at Jin Yiwei's head, then turned and stepped aside.

"Hehe, it's too late to go now, take him out for me, and take him first."

Now that he was offended, Jin Yiwei's head was completely let go, and he pointed at the official who had retreated to one side, asking someone to pull him out first.

"Bastard, I'm the head of the official department. If you dare to touch me, see how I deal with you."

The official didn't expect disaster to befall him first, and thought of Jin Yiwei's horrible punishment, so he pointed to the head of Jin Yiwei's prison in a fit of frustration, cursed and even threatened him.

"Haha, the head of the Ministry of Officials is such a great official, my lord, you are such a powerful official, I just like how domineering you are."

The head of Jin Yiwei's prison sneered, turned his head and said to the subordinates beside him: "I have arranged him for me, and I will serve him personally later, so that this adult can fully experience the enthusiasm of our Jin Yiwei."

Soon a scream came from outside the cell, and the eyes of the officials in the cell twitched.

They didn't expect this group of Jin Yiwei to be so fierce that they dared to attack them.

Here are most of the officials of the imperial court. It's fine if these Jinyi guards don't take good care of them, but they really dare to do something, which offends them all to death.

If they go out in the future, these brocade guards will either resign and hide away for the rest of their lives, or they will be played to death by these officials.

Although Jin Yiwei is the Son of Heaven's pro-army, but these ministers are not just for nothing.

"When did it start!"

At the gate of Jin Yiwei's imperial prison, hearing the screams inside, Zhu Pangpang asked Ji Gang, the commander of Jin Yiwei who was following him.

Because of Zhu Zhangui's relationship, Ji Gang's relationship with Donggong has become much closer, and his words no longer beat around the bush like before.

"Not long after the beginning, there were too many people after all. They were all important officials of the court, and the people under them didn't dare to do anything for a while."

"Afterwards, the minister urged me a few times, and the people below were also anxious, and went in to arrest people. When there was a conflict, they immediately moved their hands."

Zhu Pangpang nodded when he heard the words, took a peek inside, and muttered something in a low voice.

"It seems a bit early to come, will it appear that I am too urgent to go in like this?"

While Ji Gang instantly understood the meaning, rolled his eyes and said with a smile.

"His Royal Highness, I have something important to report, which is related to the safety of Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Pangpang's expression was serious instantly when he heard the words, he looked around and said seriously: "Such an important matter cannot be delayed, I think all the ministers can understand that this is not a place to talk, go, go to your office!"

After all, the two of them didn't seem to hear the screams behind them, and turned around to go to Ji Gang's office.

Amidst the screams behind them, they could faintly hear the two whispering to each other.

"Don't kill anyone!"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, the subordinates are well-measured. Although it hurts, it doesn't affect the body. It will be fine after two or three days of rest."

As the saying goes, sending charcoal in the snow is the most memorable time.

This is the time when officials are at their most stubborn. If Zhu Pangpang goes in, not only will he not achieve the effect he wants, but it will also give these people a signal that the court cannot do without them.
