Chapter 1032 - Apply what you have learned
Li Zicheng stayed in Zhou's mansion that night, but Zhou Qingrou never showed up, and it was not until she got up early the next day that she came to serve Li Zicheng to wash.
Last night, Li Zicheng slept alone, she was obviously very guilty, "Your Majesty, why don't we go back to Hangzhou today?" ”
"Hangzhou?" Li Zicheng said with a smile: "Naturally, I want to go back to Hangzhou!" But I was thinking about another place.
After breakfast, Li Zicheng said goodbye to Zhou's father and son, and left Yuhang County with Zhou Qingrou.
At about noon, Li Zicheng returned to Hangzhou.
After lunch, Li Zicheng summoned two wealthy merchants from Huzhou, sold them the drawings of the eight-spindle spinning machine and the flying shuttle loom at a price of 5,000 taels, gave them a few words, and then left Hangzhou, went to the official road from outside the southern city, and went to Shaoxing Mansion in the southeast.
When it was dark, Li Zicheng had not yet arrived at Shaoxing Mansion, so he set up a tent at the entrance of the town dozens of miles away from the capital city, and the camp tents of his own soldiers guarded Li Zicheng's Chinese army tent.
Zhou Qingrou had a small single tent, leaning against Li Zicheng's Chinese army tent, separated by a passage where only one person walked.
After dinner, Li Zicheng walked around the outside of the town, and after returning to the big tent, he pillowed the back of his head with his hands, and reclined on the marching bed, thinking about his thoughts.
Suddenly, he heard the sound of footsteps outside the tent, Li Zicheng couldn't help but be stunned, is there any urgent message at such a late hour?
"The Emperor's ......"
When Li Zicheng heard it, he couldn't help but be happy, what kind of emergency message was it, it turned out to be Zhou Qingrou!
He got up and lifted the curtain and welcomed Zhou Qingrou in, "Qingrou!"
In the darkness, Zhou Qingrou's beautiful eyes sparkled, hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Your Majesty, last night in the slave's house, the slave maid ......"
Li Zicheng gently hugged Zhou Qingrou into his arms, he knew Zhou Qingrou's thoughts, last night in Zhou's mansion, Zhou Qingrou has not shown up since he went home, leaving him to sleep alone, I am afraid that he will be uneasy.
Even if it is the emperor, you must abide by the folk customs and customs!
However, Li Zicheng felt that this matter was harmless, when he was marching and fighting, he often didn't see a woman for months, and there were no thorns in his heart about such a thing, "It's good that Qingrou is here!"
Zhou Qingrou said cautiously: "Your Majesty, the slave and maid are here to make amends......
"Reparation? What sins...... Oh, I want to make amends, and see how I punish you......"
"The emperor is bad...... Oops...... Lighter...... There are a lot of soldiers out there......"
Outside the big tent, there are indeed many pro-soldiers, but their responsibility is to protect Li Zicheng from harm, as for who Li Zicheng wants to hurt and who he likes, they can't control it, and they have no right to care.
Li Zicheng took pity on Zhou Qingrou for going on a long journey with him, and he didn't toss for long, and when it was quiet outside, they also fell asleep in the big tent......
After dawn, after a hurried breakfast, Zhou Qingrou packed up and got into the carriage, Li Zicheng immediately marched east along the official road, and it was not until the afternoon that he saw Lingxu Mountain in the west of Yuyao City.
Lingxu Mountain is not big, the radius is only three or four miles, the height is only more than ten zhang, in fact it is a slightly larger soil slope, but the whole mountain is crisp and lush, ancient cypress forest, pine into the clouds.
Li Zicheng pointed forward and said with a smile: "Lingxu Mountain seems to have an indescribable aura, no wonder it can give birth to a strange person like Zhu Zhiyu." ”
He Xiaoxiao said: "Your Majesty, is this Zhu Zhiyu worthy of the emperor coming to the door in person?" ”
"It's not a special door, I'm going to Fujian and Guangdong, it's a passer," Li Zicheng said: "This person is either a vain name, or he is a great talent I need, so it's better to come and see it in person." ”
Unconsciously, Li Zicheng came to the west gate, and the soldiers guarding the city saw the Kyushu military flag, so they came to inquire and confirmed that it was their own people, and then opened the city gate.
Li Zicheng asked his soldiers to be stationed outside the city, and walked into Yuyao City with only He Xiaomi and a hundred households.
Yuyao City belongs to Shaoxing Mansion, and the prosperity of Hangzhou is no longer the same, Li Zicheng asked his soldiers to find Zhu Zhiyu, and by the way, he had lunch in the tavern in the city.
Li Zicheng walked out of the tavern and walked southeast along the street, and all the shops along the way were open, and the people were leisurely and unaffected by the war, and they were very relieved.
Walk to the main gate of Zhu Mansion, look around, the courtyard wall of Zhu Mansion is not high, the stone lion in front of the door is very small, and even the vermilion lacquer on the gate has fallen off a lot.
This Zhu Zhiyu should be a tall person, right?
A person who is a scholar should be a little noble, and if he pursues things outside his body too much, it is not only difficult to meditate, but also easy to be influenced by power and money.
Before the meeting, Li Zicheng's impression of Zhu Zhiyu was not bad.
He Xiaomi went up and knocked on the door, and after a while, a gap opened in the main door, and a mansion urn said angrily: "Who is it......" suddenly saw the heavily armed soldiers outside the door, and was taken aback, the whole person froze in the door, and forgot to close his mouth # lips.
He Xiaomi smiled secretly and said, "There is a distinguished guest visiting Jingshi, please inform Mr. Zhu!"
"Jingshi distinguished guest?" Only then did Fu Ding come to his senses, and he hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Master Jun, wait a minute, the villain will go and report!" Hurriedly closed the door and went away.
Li Zicheng didn't wait long, the main door opened again, and a middle-aged man in a cyan robe and a black square bachelor's hat walked out of the door, his eyes swept over He Xiaomi and Li Zicheng in turn, frowned slightly, and arched his hand: "In Xia Zhu Zhiyu, how many guests are from Jingshi?" ”
He Xiaomi returned the salute and said, "Exactly!"
Zhu Zhiyu said: "I don't know you here, I don't know what to look for?" ”
He Xiaoxiao said: "Mr. Zhu, can you go into the house to speak first?" ”
Zhu Zhiyu's face was solemn, and he said with a straight face: "If you are here to comfort the official in Beijing, look down, or you don't need to enter the cold house, so as not to disappoint you!"
Li Zicheng smiled faintly and said loudly: "Is Mr. Zhu worried that his position is not firm, or is he afraid that he will be kidnapped by us and go to Beijing as an official?" ”
Zhu Zhiyu looked stunned, then stretched out his hand and pointed to the door, and said, "A few people, please come down and enter the room!"
Li Zicheng asked his soldiers to stay outside the mansion, and only brought He Xiaomi and a small flag into the mansion, and followed Zhu Zhiyu into the living room.
The pro-soldiers stayed outside the hall as usual, and only He Xiaomi was with Li Zicheng's side.
Zhu Zhiyu pointed to the wooden chair opposite, "Master Jun, please!" He also sat on the throne.
He Xiaomi wiped the seat with his sleeve before letting Li Zicheng sit down.
Zhu Zhiyu frowned, his mouth # lips moved, but he didn't say it, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Who is the military master, what is the matter?" ”
Li Zicheng arched his hand to Zhu Zhiyu and said with a smile:
"In Xia Li Zicheng, I heard that Mr. Daming, I came to visit!"
"Li Zicheng ......"
"Bold!" He Xiaoxiao said angrily: "Zhu Zhiyu, you are so bold, dare to call the emperor by his name......"
Li Zicheng smiled faintly and said, "Xiaomi, don't be impatient!" glanced at Zhu Zhiyu, who still maintained a faint smile on his face, and didn't seem to care about this pure etiquette.
Zhu Zhiyu was stunned for a moment, and when he met Li Zicheng's gaze, he came to his senses, got up and left his seat, and bowed to the ground, "Villain Zhu Zhiyu, knock on the emperor!"
Li Zicheng said in his heart: The Hongguang puppet regime has surrendered, Zhejiang is already the land of China, and it is appropriate for Zhu Zhiyu to salute himself.
Since Zhu Zhiyu bowed, it means that he knows the general trend of the world.
He nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhu doesn't have to be polite, get up and speak!"
"Thank you, little man!" After Zhu Zhiyu got up, he didn't dare to sit down anymore, and under Li Zicheng's repeated requests, he reluctantly sat down.
Li Zicheng smiled and said, "Mr. Zhu, do you know why I came to Zhu's Mansion?" ”
"This ......" Zhu Zhiyu's face did not have the slightest smile, and if you looked closely, there was a faint haze.
Li Zicheng carefully inspected and knew that it was difficult to convince Zhu Zhiyu directly, so he smiled lightly: "I heard that Mr. Zhu has been recommended several times, but whether it is the original Ming Dynasty or the Hongguang Small Imperial Court, Mr. Zhu has resigned, why?" ”
"Corruption in the imperial court......
Li Zicheng said with a smile: "Mr. is unwilling to be an official, is he unable to display his ambitions, or is he unwilling to be in the same stream as the officials of the Ming Dynasty?" ”
"For the sake of the people, if the villain is an official, it doesn't matter if he is an official, the key is the people," Zhu Zhiyu shook his head and sighed softly: "The world is dark, the court has no way, the villain has long since given up the idea of being an official, and he can study at home with peace of mind!"
For the people?
Li Zicheng's heart moved, in the troubled times at the end of the Ming Dynasty, it is really rare to remember the people in his heart! Is Zhu Zhiyu really for the people, or is he playing tricks? Or he has seen the general trend at the end of the Ming Dynasty and knows that the Ming Dynasty is about to perish, so he deliberately does not appear to attract his attention......
It's a pity that this Zhu Zhiyu may not be a celebrity, and in the history of later generations, he has never heard of it at all, and there is no reference information.
Whether it is a trick or not, even if it is because he sees the general trend of the world and refuses to be a leader, he is also a person with vision, if Huaxia does not use it, it is really a pity.
Li Zicheng said lightly: "Since Mr. Zhu is dedicated to serving the people, I don't know if he is willing to serve Huaxia?" ”
Zhu Zhiyu glanced at Li Zicheng, if there was a reason, but after all, he still shook his head slightly, "Go back to the emperor, villain...... The villain has long given up the idea of becoming an official, and asks the emperor for forgiveness......"
Li Zicheng was speechless, if Zhu Zhiyu wanted to attract his own attention, he would visit him from afar, he really had no need to be a master, he was the emperor, it was impossible to visit the thatched house three times, and he came to the small Yuyao County, which was already a great emperor.
Zhu Zhiyu really doesn't want to be an official, or rather, he doesn't know much about the current Huaxia!
There is no shortage of officials in Huaxia, and Zhu Zhiyu may be an outstanding official who asks for the people's lives, but what Huaxia is most lacking now is highly educated teachers.
Li Zicheng bowed slightly, and said: "Mr. is studying behind closed doors, I don't know what I feel about learning?" ”
Zhu Zhiyu bowed slightly and said: "The villain's perception is 'learn from reality and apply what you have learned'!"
