I am the king of the dead

Normally speaking, Zhu Qiyu's thoughts are very normal.

Shang Lu also thought that the matter was over here, and the master and father were kneeling when they invited the master to have a banquet, so the banquet would naturally end.

Coincidentally, among the few servants brought by Qian Pu, one is quick-witted and wants to make meritorious deeds.

No, the servant asked the servant to find out the identity of the master in this private room, and when he heard that it was a wealthy businessman from Shandong, he immediately rushed to Xiao Yi's mansion.

Xiao Yi also suffered a lot in the yamen today. His immediate superior, Shen Yi, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs of the Ming Dynasty, rejected the report he sent. This report was also entrusted to Xiao Yi. They have made arrangements for their relationship, but Shen Yi just refuses to let it out.

Xiao Yi was depressed and drank some wine when he returned home. Hearing that his protégé was being bullied, he felt even more depressed. When he heard that it was just a wealthy businessman who had captured his protégé with his minions, he planned to go and have a look. It's my own student, if I don't protect myself, will I accept students in the future?

Doesn't the imperial court only pay attention to a student and an old official?

Xiao Ying went out, and when he got to the door of Hongxiu Zhao, the cold wind blew, and he woke up most of the wine. Land, that is to give someone a handle, he secretly thought that something was wrong, and also said that he was lucky to have not entered the door before turning his head and leaving.

Xiao Ying came, but didn't...

"Let's go back home! Hurry up." Xiao Yi raised his legs and spoke to his bearer.

But it was too late.

Because he saw His Majesty talking to Shang Ren right in front of him, and walked out of the red sleeve move.

Xiao Yan immediately woke up completely from the wine, and immediately bowed his head and said: "I have seen Your Majesty, Your Majesty is blessed."

Zhu Qiyu looked at Xiao Yi in a daze, he didn't expect that Xiao Yi really came.

"What are you doing here?" Zhu Qiyu asked with a frown.

"I heard that my disciple Qian Pu was taken, so I came to rescue him, but seeing that he was recruiting in Hongxiu, in such a dusty place, as a minister in the court, it was inconvenient for me to go in and out, so I planned to go back and make plans. I drank some wine, but didn't ask where it was." Xiao Yi was not a fool like Qian Pu, and told the truth directly.

In front of the emperor, don't lie. This is the first of the six ways of ministers. If you lie, you will need 1 lies to correct it, and it will only be full of flaws in the end.

When Zhu Qiyu heard Xiao Yi tell the truth, he didn't mention who took the money, but said in a somewhat admonishing tone: "I shouldn't have said more when I was in court, but it was a mistake to drink, Lian Wu The Marquis of Qing seldom drinks too much, look at the smell of alcohol on your body."

"And this student, don't recruit any more in the future. If something happens to this student, you, the teacher, will be easily implicated."

"I would like to obey the sacred teachings!" Xiao Yi never got up, and bowed his head to answer.

Zhu Qiyu waved his hand and said, "Go back, I'm going back too."

"Your Majesty will take my leave and send you off respectfully." Xiao Ying still didn't get up, and waited respectfully for His Majesty's car to turn a corner before standing up. The wine he drank at home turned into sweat.

"Who will say that His Majesty is violent in the future, I will be the first to be impatient with him!" When Xiao Ying stood up, he recollected the whole performance, and said quite affirmatively to the people around him.

Throughout the ages, is there any king in the world who gets along better than His Majesty?

Xiao Yi knew very well that he had walked around the gate of hell, and he owed money to Pu's ass. He Xiao Yi had never participated in it. If His Majesty caught this, he would not go to the prison to peel off his skin. It cannot be justified.

"Xiao Yi has a wide range of knowledge, elegant writing, and clear accounts. Since Xuande became an official in the second year, he has done nothing wrong. His disciples are three or five ears. Only Qian Pu makes trouble for him all day long." Zhu Qiyu explained to Shang Ren Why didn't Xiao Ying be pursued.

As a courtier of the Wenhua Palace, Xiao Yi once stood firmly on the emperor's side on many major events in the court, but expressed some of his own objections to the abolition of Zhu Jianshen's crown prince.

In the original historical line, because of supporting Ming Dynasty Zong's policy, Xiao Yi was finally dismissed as a citizen by Ming Yingzong Zhu Qizhen. Xiao Yi was not regarded as Ming Dynasty Zong's confidant. After all, he opposed the abolition of Zhu Jianshen's crown prince. Ming Yingzong Zhu Qizhen still dismissed Xiao Yi who had worked hard for the country all his life, and even took away his fame.

"Continuous sitting is cruel, but careful punishment is wise. Your Majesty is wise." Shang Ren bowed his head and said after hearing His Majesty's explanation.

Shang Ren said with some embarrassment: "Your Majesty, I have an unfeeling question."

"Ask." Zhu Qiyu nodded and said.

"Did this Qian Pu find out something? His Majesty just came to see this excitement today?" Shang Ren asked the question he wanted to ask at the very beginning.

Zhu Qiyu did not answer this question directly, but asked instead: "So what if it is? So what if it is not?"

Shang Ren hesitated for a long time before saying: "Yes, that is Qian Pu's own fault, it is not that the minister thinks that the king governs the world with benevolence and forgiveness, if Qian Pu has no mistakes, if it is only the king's slip of the tongue, it should be..."

"Stop, stop!" Zhu Qiyu immediately waved his hand and said, "Yes, where did you get the money for him to visit the brothel? He can go to that place often. If there is no problem, I won't recruit people in Hongxiu."

As soon as Zhu Qiyu heard Shang Ren start chanting, he remembered the fear of being chanted by Chen Xun.

Who is Qian Pu?It is his political enemy of Shang Lu!

Because Qian Pu offended the emperor and went to prison, Shang Ren did not celebrate, but begged for mercy. Opening his mouth and keeping his mouth shut is the way of benevolence and forgiveness. Shang Ren was not pleading for Qian Pu, but for the sake of justice in the world.

Of course, Tiqi has certain evidence. Today, Qian Pu's meal was delicious, and he has to go in tomorrow, because Qian Pu is stupid, so he didn't even catch up with the last meal.

"This Qian Pu was involved in the case of the Minister of Rites, Xiao Yu, after the incident happened. He was supposed to take it, but I don't know if it will be involved in the right servant of the Ministry of Households, Xiao Ying." Zhu Qiyu felt a little bit emotional. Said.

Xiao Yu is dead, but he is dead. The gang of influential people behind him are in bad luck. Xiao Yu's diary can be said to be the book of life and death in the hands of Lord Yan. With one exception, they were all uprooted. When the radish was pulled out, the mud was brought out, and Qian Pu was exposed.

Zhu Qiyu said with a little uncertainty: "This money Pu was taken at the teacher's banquet. If you kill a chicken, I don't know if the monkeys can take it as a warning."

It is obviously a bad social atmosphere to invite and thank teachers. Zhu Qiyu naturally wants to combat this atmosphere and create some opportunities for more children from poor families to stand out.

Only by breaking the solidification of the class and allowing the class to flow can Daming be more dynamic.

"Naturally, it has a deterrent effect. Who would dare to invite a teacher, who would dare to go to a banquet?" Shang Ren affirmed the significance of His Majesty's watching the excitement this time.

This invitation to the master banquet turned out to invite His Majesty. Is it because they were lucky to meet the saint, or was it unfortunate that they invited this evil god?

Chapter 855 The right way in the world is vicissitudes

Zhu Qiyu played a whole set of combined punches, in which there was a test site drawn on the mansion newspaper, and Qian Pu who was invited was taken away at the master banquet. Whether such actions are really effective, Zhu Qiyu felt a little nervous question mark.

Does it really work?

quite effective.

If there is something good on the top, it will be great on the bottom.

If there is evil at the top, it must be avoided at the bottom.

Under the bureaucratic system that is completely responsible to the superiors, Zhu Qiyu went out in person, and after taking the money, the atmosphere of inviting teachers in the capital suddenly died down.

If the emperor does not move, I will not move. When the emperor moves, I will be terrified. This is the traditional virtue of Daming Shuntian Mansion.

How many yamen gates, such as the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Ministry of Officials, the Anti-corruption Office, etc., are waiting for some people to repent so that they can complete this year's examination results and targets.

So after the emperor acted on his own, the entire Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Ministry of Officials, the Anti-Corruption Office, and even the Wucheng Bingma Division all kept an eye on the major restaurants.

These people don't take students, don't take husbands, they only take officials of the court, because His Majesty only took away Qian Pu in the red sleeve trick, and this is the standard for handling cases.

In the past, officials at all levels need to figure out what they want to judge the degree and standard of handling a case. Now there is no need to judge, because His Majesty has already prepared the template and copied it.

In the official residence of Yongfang, big and small, every family and every household had their gates closed, and any invitations were rejected, and no one would be seen when they came. His Majesty lost his temper. Wronged?

Governor Li Binyan of Songjiang, Grandpa Tang Xing, the Third Prince's Grandpa Tang Xing, Commander of Jinyiwei, and Chen Zongqing, Governor of Songjiang Prefecture, arrived in three years and returned to Beijing to report on their duties.

Back in the capital, Li Binyan, as a well-known fool in the officialdom, didn't even think about handing over invitations to anyone. He planned to rest for a day or two after talking with His Majesty, and then went to Songjiang Mansion. Songjiang Mansion had complicated affairs and had to go back to take care of it .

Tang Xing, the grandfather of the third prince, is even a relative of the emperor. He also has military exploits and extraordinary achievements. Zhang, and the relatives of the Empress Dowager Sun were all in the front line, and Tang Xing even planned to disappear.

However, Chen Zongqing had neither a holy family member nor a status as a relative of the emperor. He still had to pass around invitations to meet his teacher and then the officials in Beijing to maintain good relations and facilitate things.

Even if Qi Jiguang returns to Beijing, he still has to visit Zhang Juzheng's house. Neither Qi Jiguang nor Zhang Juzheng can avoid the four words of human relationship.

But when Chen Zongqing returned home and spread the invitations around, they were all returned.

You must know that he is a serious third-rank Songjiang governor. There are only three Ming officials who can be called governors, Shuntian governor, Yingtian governor, and Songjiang governor. two.

When he figured out the situation, he had to be filled with emotion. His Majesty is still the same Majesty. Although he knows that absolute fairness is unrealistic, he still hopes to pursue universal fairness and achieve general fairness.

Li Binyan and Chen Zongqing wanted to face the saints, so they naturally had to bathe, change clothes and burn incense. Firstly, it was the etiquette of facing the saints, and secondly, it was to wash away the dust and not bring the sickness to His Majesty.

Li Binyan went to Tai'an Palace to face the saint on the second day after returning to Beijing.

"I will pay my respects to Your Majesty, and your Majesty will bow to you." Li Binyan entered the Tai'an Hall, and performed three prostrations and five prostrations. This etiquette is very comprehensive.

Zhu Qiyu smiled and said: "Please get up quickly, Li Aiqing has lost a lot of weight, Xing'an, give me a seat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace." Li Bin stood up after his words and deeds.

He sincerely thanked His Majesty.

The turmoil at the end of last year, if it weren't for His Majesty's blessing, he would have been eaten by the courtiers long ago, and there would be no bones left. How could he still be alive to see His Majesty?

Li Binyan understood to some extent why His Majesty refused to take back the Yongle Sword in his hand, it was to protect him.

"Chen Qingtian is also sitting." Zhu Qiyu stepped down from the platform, the etiquette had already come, and he naturally wouldn't talk to the two lovers on the platform, mainly because of the effort.

Chen Zongqing never expected that His Majesty, who is always busy with daily affairs, still remembered his nickname, and hurriedly bowed his head to thank him.

Zhu Qiyu asked with some doubts: "Both of you have arrived in the capital, and even Commander Tang has returned. If there is something wrong with Songjiang Mansion, how should we deal with it?"

Li Binyan heard His Majesty's question, and immediately replied: "Yingtian Governor Li Xian is looking after him in Songjiang Mansion. When he returns to Beijing, I will take care of him for a while."

Zhu Qiyu nodded. Although Li Xian was a bit unlucky, his ability was still first-class. Li Binyan would return from this trip in a month at most.

"Li Xian's child is seven years old this year. When the child was full moon, we gave back ten silver coins. Our child was full moon, but he didn't follow the gift. It's a loss!" Zhu Qiyu was reminiscing about the old days.

Reminiscing about the past is naturally not seen for many years, talking about the past and communicating feelings.

Li Xian insisted on giving Liu Yuniang a name back then. This incident made Li Xian's reputation discredited and notorious. After all, Liu Yuniang was the courtesan in the brothel, a smoky woman, but Liu Yuniang gave Li Xian a Li Xian gave birth to a child through Liu Yuniang and settled the matter.

Zhu Qiyu agreed, and gave the child a full month's money.

Since Zhu Qiyu ascended the throne, whose children have they given money to?

This is affection.

Li Binyan sighed and said: "When Liu Yuniang received His Majesty's edict and this money, her eyes were swollen from kneeling and crying. So many years have passed in a blink of an eye."

This chatter chatter, chatter out of feelings.

In just a few words, Li Binyan's muddleheaded officialdom is fully reflected.

Li Binyan doesn't know how to reminisce about the past at all, let alone talk about feelings.

You say he is incompetent.

He made the official affairs of the Songjiang Mansion and the Shibo Department of Maritime Trade clear and clear. It can be said that Li Binyan really can't climb up, and his majesty has to start all the reminiscences.

You can say that he is talented, but in terms of people's sophistication, he is three slaps in the face, and he is confused. The third prince and his grandfather Tang Xing are Li Binyan's comrades-in-arms who resisted and killed the enemy. Tie Cier, who was a friend of life and death, could exchange names , but Li Binyan never used Tang Xing to climb the pole, let alone make Tang Xing difficult.

Of course, Zhu Qiyu prefers to refer to Li Binyan's situation as a child's heart. In the big dye vat of the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty, it is indeed rare that someone like Li Binyan is still alive.

Zhu Qiyu said with a smile on his face: "Chen Qingtian, you don't know that Lao Li was a master in the Metropolitan Procuratorate back then."

"Other people write the question book at the end of the year, and they have already written it. He is left alone, waiting in a daze. I lost it after finishing it, and wrote a new one.”

"When we listened to it, we were entertained for several days."

"This is an old calendar of more than ten years, Your Majesty is really embarrassing me." Li Binyan's face flushed immediately.

It was at the end of the first year of Jingtai. He impeached Zhao Hui, the captain-in-law, in the imperial court. Who would dare to impeach the relatives of the emperor, but Li Binyan impeached him. After the impeachment, everyone else took a rest. After the urging, I made a mistake in my busy schedule and lost it again.

"I really don't know." It was the first time Chen Zongqing heard about his boss's embarrassment. His first reaction was not to laugh at his boss's stupidity, but to envy Li Binyan's weight in His Majesty's heart.

These small things may seem small, but every word from His Majesty's mouth is the value that His Majesty attaches to Li Binyan.

"You are not in the capital, we have lost a lot of fun." Zhu Qiyu continued to chat with Li Binyan, not talking about business, and chatting a lot.

Chen Zongqing understood the officialdom. For His Majesty, Li Binyan belonged to his own people and belonged to a very important category, but Li Binyan didn't know it. He still fulfilled his duties and was loyal to the monarch and the country.

The most important thing is that the working ability is really strong, and the business affairs are handled in an orderly manner.

This chat lasted for half noon, Zhu Qiyu did not forget, and handed over the heavy booklet that Ran Siniang gave him to Li Binyan, asking him to help in the search, not only to find these medicines, but also to establish a stable supply channel .

This is both a private and a public matter.

Zhu Qiyu finally asked seriously: "Is there any problem with this official ship official business? Tell us if you are short of money or people. Since we let you do it, if you encounter any problems, just say so."

"It's not too difficult." Li Binyan replied honestly.

What Songjiang Mansion lacked was all these two things, and the official ship official trade business was much smoother than he imagined, mainly because the Chaozhong Household Department did not obstruct it, so it was naturally done extremely quickly.

"Your Majesty, what Governor Li means is that there is not much difficulty, but there are still some small problems." Chen Zongqing accepted the words and bowed his head.

Such a good opportunity to complain and ask for credit, Li Binyan just missed it!

Chen Zongqing had to give his boss some credit.

Although the turmoil of boasting and impeachment of Li Binyan did not cause substantial harm to Li Binyan, in the emperor's heart, did he whisper to Li Binyan?

Therefore, when it is time to perform, you must perform. This is the way to be an official.

"Oh, what's the small problem?" Zhu Qiyu looked at Chen Zongqing.

Chen Zongqing said cautiously: "Actually, it's not a big deal. It's just that a group of powerful and right-handed people made a fuss in the shipping department of Songjiang Prefecture by advocating hard work and labor, saying that the official ship and official trade will definitely rob them of their business. When I left the place where I was working, there was a commotion."

"Is this still a trivial matter?!" Zhu Qiyu's face turned cold, and he said with a rather stern expression: "It's not good to live, I'm in a hurry to go to the underworld, I'll send them down!"

Li Binyan bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, it has been dealt with. Only thirty or fifty laborers have been deceived. They are all hard-working people. I have a good discussion with them, and the minister has already tricked those who have been tricked into working hard." The luxury house was confiscated, and the case has just been closed and forwarded to the Ministry of Punishment."

"That's about the same." Zhu Qiyu nodded slightly satisfied after hearing Li Binyan's treatment, and said, "How many times have we told you that you are holding the Yongle Sword to kill such thieves? You have forgotten the orthodox ten-year Fuzhou Did the so-called civil unrest fire in the shipyard completely burnt down the official ship of the Ming Dynasty?"
