Chapter 711: Bahu, Early Dynasty

"Master, master!"

Out of the courtyard gate, hearing several anxious calls from the courtyard behind him, Zhu Tingfang smiled, and then smiled at the two guards and a middle-aged man who were guarding the gate of the courtyard before: "It seems that Confucius University was angry with those Diao slaves in his family, and immediately went to the hospital in person, regardless of whether it was the hospital envoy or the court judge, in short, call a good hand in Xinglin!" ”

Commander Ma Silu of Xicheng who came with him had just watched the confrontation between Zhu Tingfang and Confucius University at the gate of the courtyard, and witnessed the crowding of people to increase the morale of the cabinet university, and now it is likely that he is still guilty of some old problems, he admires and fears at the same time. However, now it is not a question of whether he wants to get off the ship of the Zhu family, but ...... He couldn't get off the boat at all!

Because of the continuous arrests last night, Zhu Tingfang claimed to be acting on orders, and now he came to see Master Kong Jiu, even if it was more just to demonstrate...... But what if this is also the emperor's order?

Therefore, when Commander Lu saw that the two guards were awe-inspiring, he also hurriedly followed Zhu Tingfang, who was walking out by himself, but he kept complimenting the wise and martial command of the people last night. Although in the past, such sycophants were generally slapped on the horse's feet, and Zhu Tingfang couldn't get a good face, but today, his top boss was obviously in a good mood, and he actually laughed twice.

"What kind of wise and martial arts, these days combing people inside and outside the capital, etc., I have long known which people the eldest prince had the most frequent contacts with during his time in the capital, and all of them have sent people to keep an eye on."

Under the news of the shipwreck of the second prince, how could Zhu Tingfang not be wary of the eldest prince taking the opportunity to make a move? After all, none of the three mothers and sons are smart, and it would be a big mistake to measure them by the way of normal smart people! It's just that he didn't expect that the eldest prince is not a smart person, and there are so many guys who are not smart people!

Walking out of the East Corner Gate of the Confucian Mansion, Zhu Tingfang saw that the guards waiting here led the horses to meet him, so he took the reins and jumped on the horse, and then slowly stepped forward, bowing slightly to the dozens of people who had just come with him: "Last night was a hard night, everyone has merit, and this morning, I will naturally ask the emperor for credit for you." ”

Speaking of this, he heard the guards behind him whisper about the two slaves and the gold beads and other things that were detained, so he said with a face full of indifference: "First escort people and things back to the Xicheng Soldiers and Horses, and after the interrogation, immediately make a clear decision, don't trouble the Shuntian Mansion again." This kind of lawsuit is easy to judge, why bother with the Song Tuiguan who has been working too hard recently? ”

He paused suddenly, glanced sideways and saw Commander Lu beside him, and he said lightly: "As for those seized things, give me an inventory, and take out half of them to reward you." Their Confucian family has no way to govern the family by themselves, and they have to end up with such people who betray their masters and slaves, but they still have to work for the soldiers and horses, which everyone deserves. ”

He didn't say this to Commander Lu in private, but in front of everyone. For a while, I don't know how many people showed joy up and down.

Zhu Tingfang is strict, but there is another point, that is, generosity! In the previous successive clean-ups inside and outside the capital, there was no shortage of soldiers and horses in the five cities, but anyone who tried to entrain, all of them would be dealt with extremely severely, so after several times, it was a third of the people who were replaced. And all those whose hands and feet are clean and innocent are recorded one by one.

It is said that Zhu Tingfang asked the emperor for advice, and the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division issued additional bonuses according to performance. As for where the money came from, it is said that part of it was taken out of that series of raids, and the rest was not put into the treasury. Of course, Zhu Tingfang will never admit this. And last night's cold wind was indeed very hard, but since there is gain, of course, no one feels bitter! As for the money and property brought out by the servants of Liandang's old house in the court pavilion, Zhu Tingfang used it to divide it privately, is it appropriate or not...... But no one paid attention to it.

Putting aside these words, when the team returned to the Xicheng Soldiers and Horses, leaving the two guards around him to assist in the inventory, Zhu Tingfang hurriedly returned to the straight room to change clothes, and then rushed to Donghua Gate. When preparing to impeach the Kong brothers, he was also ready to be impeached.

In such cold weather, the dynasty is naturally a chore, and at this time, I don't know how many low-grade officials are shrinking their hands and stomping their feet to keep warm, so looking at Zhu Tingfang, who came with a famous horse in Chinese costumes, there are many officials who talk to each other, many of whom are envious and yearning, many who are afraid and jealous, and many who are hateful and disgusted.

However, Zhu Tingfang has long been accustomed to this kind of gaze, and at this time it is just ordinary. He quickly found the circle he was most familiar with, but he saw his father Zhao Guogong Zhu Jing talking and laughing with Zhang Chuan, the Duke of Qin, and at a distance from him, Xiangyang Bo was looking at him. So, he didn't go to his father's side first, but went straight to Xiangyangbo.

"What are you laughing at me?"

"I laugh at you that when you appear now, you are more angry than your father! Look at these guys, don't they avoid you like a plague god? Your father has been fighting on the battlefield for most of his life to have the majesty he has now, how old are you, and what will happen in the future? I'm happy to see the jokes, if your father can't suppress your son in the future, it will be interesting! ”

Rao is Zhu Tingfang knew that Xiangyang Bo was the most direct and irritable of the three brothers in the Zhang family, and he would never consider what trouble came out of his mouth, but he still couldn't help but smile bitterly.

But immediately after, he saw the other party smile at himself again: "You are going to be the groom's official, and you don't know how to do good deeds and accumulate virtues, and you are still killing and killing there." I received the invitation from your house, and I was still thinking about whether to go or not, but for your temper of not being afraid of things and not hiding things, I will drink your glass of water and wine! ”

"But I said it in advance, there are no congratulatory gifts! My house also entered the thieves last night, and they were all stolen! ”

"Anyway, he is also an earl, and his merits are brilliant, and he has to be stingy with even a little congratulatory gift? You were stolen, how did I hear that the thief was caught in an instant? Zhu Jing came over quietly, and after asking with a smile, he saw Xiangyang Bo Zhang Qiong glaring at him, and then simply looked at the sky and ignored people, and he didn't care about this rammer generally, and the father and son immediately came to the side to talk.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Qiong remembered that although his own son was still a little promising, he was far from the Qilin'er of the Zhao State Mansion, not to mention him, even the eldest brother was the same as a few in the Chu State Mansion, so he couldn't help but feel a little envious, bowed his head and sighed. But just as he was wandering, he suddenly heard a slightly familiar voice from behind him.

"Why is Uncle Xiangyang standing here alone?"

Zhang Qiong, who hadn't had time to raise his head, saw that the person was dressed as if he was a civil official, and thought to himself that a civil official would come to support a military general like him, but when he raised his head, it was Zhang Shou before the meeting, and he couldn't help but widen his eyes slightly: "What are you doing here, aren't you not going to the early dynasty?" ”

Even if I really don't go to the early court, only your old man will ask such straightforward questions! Zhang Shou has just come all the way, and it is simply a collective attention courtesy, but others are just surprised, surprised, puzzled and even hostile, plus he has few good officialdom colleagues, and his senior brother Chen Shangshu and a few acquaintances have not yet come, so Xiangyangbo's words can be said to exhaust the doubts in others' hearts.

He could only shrug his shoulders and say, "Uncle Xiangyang, you asked me this...... Who do I ask? I slept until early in the morning, and then I knew that something was wrong at home, but before I could fully understand how to cook next, someone from the palace summoned me to the court! ”

As soon as Zhang Shou's words fell, he saw Zhu Jing and Zhu Tingfang, father and son not far away, looking at him, as if they were a little surprised by his arrival, but immediately after, he found that the eyes of his future father-in-law and eldest brother seemed to fall behind him.

He immediately turned his head to look, but saw that it was Yue Shanchang and Xu Shanchang Xiao Shanchang who came together, all wearing the robes specially given by the East Palace Lecturers, which were not much different from his robes at this time at first glance - after all, even if there was no grade, in order to show his respect for the East Palace Master, the emperor gave all the lecturers a special five-grade uniform.

In Zhu Ying's words, he suffered a loss after working hard to be promoted. And Zhang Shou couldn't think of it, he went straight to the five grades in more than a year, if he was called a hard-working promotion, then what are other officials who have been working hard for more than ten years?

After all, they are colleagues of each other, and these three are not old and stubborn like Hong Shanchang, Zhang Shou stepped forward and said hello with a smile, and after asking, he learned that like himself, they were also specially summoned by the emperor. It wasn't until he heard that there had been an invasion on the side of the house last night, and only then was one killed, five captured, and two escaped, that he was shocked.

If it is said that the guy behind the scenes still has some brains to send someone from the good hall owned by the celebrant to try to invade the Heavenly Workshop, then the intention of sending people to invade the Yashe where the three mountain chiefs and several respected astronomical scholars are located is really confusing. What the hell is this?

Seeing Zhang Shou's expression, Yue Shanchang asked tentatively, "Could it be that Master Zhang's house was also attacked?" ”

Without waiting for Zhang Shou to answer, someone behind him said on his behalf: "Not only Master Zhang, but also Zhao Guogongfu, Qin Guogongfu, Xiangyang Bofu, and Weinan Bofu...... Elder Wu Ge and Scholar Zhang also entered the thieves, but fortunately they were all repulsed. In short, these thieves are like headless flies, and they will bump into them everywhere. ”

Hearing that it was Zhu Tingfang's voice, Zhang Shoushao had no choice but to turn around and say hello with a smile, and after Zhu Tingfang returned the salute, he arched his hand to Yue Shanchang and the three of them with a smile, and then said casually: "The funniest thing is that I met a thief with a crossbow and a crossbow, and I was actually rumored on the street that I was seriously injured and dying, and the most energetic one was Dr. Kong of Taichang Temple." ”

"However, most of the whereabouts of these thieves have been investigated, so last night the capital ran all night, I just went to the Confucian Mansion, and the Confucian Mansion actually had someone to ask me when I was going to Xingshi to ask for the guilt, and I actually swept up the furniture of the Confucian Mansion. Abandoned the master and fled before the master asked for the guilt, and this kind of subordinate simply made people laugh off their big teeth. ”

Originally, some people wanted to question Zhu Tingfang a few words, but when they heard the word Confucius, they guessed that Zhu Tingfang should be talking about Confucius University, and when they heard the progress of the matter, most people retreated.

What are you provoking this evil star for? Scholar Confucius hasn't come yet, and the jokes at home are about to spread all over the place, isn't it okay to find yourself uncomfortable?

Zhang Shou really wanted to ask Zhu Tingfang for specific details, after all, it was a very happy thing for him to see that the bad luck of Confucius Scholar had already come over and clapped his hands to announce that he had to return to his train with Yue Shanchang and others first. When the train entered the Donghua Gate, the queue went to the court, and the warm-up was blown by the cold wind, which was really called a cold.

It is no wonder that when the founding Taizu restored the old system of the Tang Dynasty, not every official had to go to court every day - such as the Ming Dynasty, which only said three things, or a purely performative early dynasty, it is still not good! Moreover, in the winter, many times it is still in the open air, which is simply a waste of time and energy for the monarchs and ministers to look for abuse together!

And although today's early dynasty has set a general topic, no more than three things can be added at the end, and the ministers can debate, which is like moving the scenes in the film and television drama to reality, so although it is tiring, at least it is not so boring.

So, after the etiquette of a routine story, when several important things that had been decided long ago were publicly announced in the court, the emperor threw out the series of events that lasted yesterday from day to night. Especially the imperial history of the city patrol who came out to complain about the events of last night, it was simply crying blood and heartbreaking.

But for these people, even when they speak in the court, they like to chew the words and use the way of arranging the text with the text, Zhang Shou is really a little irritable and speechless. Fortunately, he now gives people the impression that he is proficient in arithmetic and other sparse ones, so when he saw that there were a lot of people who were talking to each other, he took the opportunity to drag Yue Shanchang on the side and asked, "What are you talking about in the series of gorgeous prose just now?" ”

Seeing that Zhang Shou asked so directly, Yue Shan was not afraid of his jokes at all, and he didn't know whether he should be happy or wry at Zhang Shou's open-minded attitude.

But now he also thinks through it, and knows that it is the next step to fight rashly with Zhang Shou, so after a little thought, he smiled and said: "He means ordering his uncle to make assertions, ignore the imperial history of patrolling the city, and not follow the system." And that pun ...... Well, it's just an analogy with a few animals, and it's more obscure to use the dictionary. Master Zhang, you don't have to be presumptuous, you see that many people are at a loss. ”

Seeing the frowning of many noble and military ministers on the opposite side, they were puzzled, and even some of the civil officials showed impatience, Zhang Shou suddenly laughed. Dropping the bookbag is such a thing, the teacher can, but when the Golden Palace plays the right thing, Yushi will laugh and be generous when he does this kind of thing.

Sure enough, before the words were finished, the emperor had already slapped the armrest twice: "Okay, don't show off your literary talent!" Patrolling the city is an old system, but in previous years, when supervising the soldiers and horses of the five cities, there was no great improvement in the security of the inner and outer cities. I also heard that it was not that no one wanted to clean up the inside and outside of the capital before, and it turned out that the imperial history of the city patrol and the command of soldiers and horses hindered each other, rather than complementing each other? ”

Seeing the miserable face of the city patrol Yu Shi Deng, who had just exited the chapter, the Son of Heaven said with a decisive word: "In the future, the City Patrol Inspectorate will set up a special place to command and work separately with the Soldiers and Horses Division, so as not to hinder each other." The Imperial History of the Patrol City is only responsible for supervision, and if there is any negligence in the command of the soldiers and horses, it will be impeached. As for this time, Zhu Tingfang's mistake will be remembered once, and the credit for last night will be rewarded! ”

The dispute was settled with a final word, and the emperor changed his words and said: "Several East Palace lecturers are said to have been frightened last night, so I specially summoned you to the palace for inquiry. Has anyone ever met a thief? ”
