Qianshoutang, Xu Hao accompanied the old lady to gossip, holding a piece of paper in his hand, to be precise, a government decree.

This day in history is the day when Zhu Di set up the East Factory, compared to Zhu Yuanzhang who realized the shortcomings of Jinyiwei after he was old, Zhu Di became more and more suspicious after he was old, and he also moved the capital to the north, and a new spy agency was needed to spy on his subjects.

Another reason is that the rebellious commander Ji Gang covered the sky with one hand, and Zhu Di, in order to balance, set up the East Factory to monitor Jinyiwei, so that they depended on each other and restrained each other.

It is undeniable that although Zhu Gaochi has never reused Jinyiwei, Jinyiwei's power is still growing quietly, and the secret spy in Xu Hao's hands is an independent system attached to Jinyiwei, although it is equivalent to playing the role of Dongchang, after all, it is unknown.

Zhu Gaochi was not worried about the expansion of Jinyiwei's power, and Xu Hao knew it, but there was one person who was vigilant, it was none other than the future emperor, the current crown prince Zhu Zhanji.

Zhu Zhanji was surrounded by a large group of East Palace staff, most of whom were important ministers in the court and great Confucians, and in recent years, there have suddenly been several outstanding people who graduated from new-style schools around him, and they actively gave advice to the crown prince.

Therefore, this decree actually ordered the first-year freshmen of Jinling University to go to Xiaolingwei for training for two months during the summer vacation, which means that Zhu Zhanji plans to cultivate a new Jinyiwei who is loyal to him.

Xu Hao thinks it's ridiculous, it's reasonable to think about it, Zhu Zhanji in history did not ban the Dongchang that was criticized by his subjects, which emperor would dismiss and only be loyal to his own eyes and ears?

Zhu Gaochi's health is the same as that of the old lady, it is getting worse and worse, Zhu Zhanji, who has been the prince for more than ten years, seems to be unable to bear it, and Zhu Gaochi is not Zhu Yuanzhang nor Zhu Di, he treats his son very gently, Zhu Zhanji is a bold figure, he did not rashly try to get his hands on the Jinyi Guard, but simply created his own personal guard. There is no better candidate than the students of the new school.

After thinking about it, Xu Hao ignored it, and a fool would try in vain to stop the future legitimate emperor, but he didn't expect that his youngest son Xu Yu would run to join in the fun.

When he came back from Yunnan, Xu Yu was about to skip the level and enter the university, so he went to find some college friends and asked about the learning and life experience on campus, and saw the notice.

At that time, many students were very dissatisfied and scolded in private. Good students, who wants to go to the barracks for training? But no one dared to stand up against it, Xu Yu thought it was very interesting, but he was happy to see what kind of fame he was going to make.

A group of lieutenants entered the school and announced from class to class that they would report to Xiaolingwei's barracks on schedule, and at the same time said sternly: "The first thing is to shave off all your hair!" ”

This was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue, and the students were stunned. As a college student in his prime, the three things that he pays the most attention to now, hairstyle, leather shoes and lines on clothes, can be said to be the main signs of a student's handsomeness.

A lot of boys want to attract the attention of girls. In order to maintain the straight lines on his clothes and pants, he carefully folded his clothes before going to bed every night because there was no charcoal iron in the dormitory. Place under the pillow and press against your head overnight to keep the line intact.

The leather shoes were polished black and shiny every day. Do not tolerate a trace of dust; Needless to say, no matter whether the hair is long or short, it is the most important part of a man's body, and it must be combed neatly and neatly every day, and some are also coated with various flower oils, which can be combed into various chic styles, not to mention oily noodles!

But seeing that the three treasures are about to be lost, and they are only allowed to wear coarse cloth pants and gowns with leggings during training, and cloth shoes with toad heads, and even their hair can't be saved, which is really unbearable.

The students suddenly made a commotion, shouting in dissatisfaction, and the classroom was like a pot of boiling porridge.

"Why do you have to shave your hair?"

"Whose idea? There is a kind of saying it. ”

The lieutenant who served as an instructor felt very strange, it turned out that the soldiers around Gyeonggi had been forced by Xu Hao to shave their heads as soldiers as early as ten years ago, and he really couldn't bear to go to the barracks like women or beggars without washing their hair all year round. If you say that this is not the same as the Manchu Qing Dynasty, a soldier must have the appearance of a soldier.

The instructors came from a military family, and the countrymen who didn't read anything couldn't help but look at them blankly. "Why?" He felt incredible, he had long been accustomed to obeying military orders, and he had never thought about why, so he told you to shave your heads, not to mention that he never thought about why he wanted to shave his head, he never thought about why he had hair on his head when he was young.

So the instructor replied bluntly: "Why the bullshit, tell you to shave your heads, you have to shave your heads!" ”

One of the students who had studied well stood up and reasoned with the instructor, saying, "Sir, we can't shave our heads for four reasons: first, we are students, not soldiers; Second, the textbook says that the reason why people have hair is to protect their heads, and the brain is extremely useful to our students. Thirdly, since ancient times, there has been a custom of crowning the year of the crown, so we must not be without a crown; Fourth, the parents of the body should not be damaged, otherwise it will be unfilial! ”

When the students saw him say so many good reasons in one breath, they thought that the other party must not be able to refute it, and laughed without fear.

The instructor was unmoved, and said, "I don't understand the reason that you students are turning around, and if you are told to shave your heads, you have to shave your heads." ”

"But you've got to tell a story about shaved heads!" The students were dissatisfied.

"What's the truth?" The instructor glared at him, "Soldiers take obedience to orders as their duty, and they order you to shave your heads, whoever dares to disobey orders will be engaged in military law!" ”

After speaking, the instructor gave a military salute, turned around and strode away, leaving a group of students looking at each other, the school hurriedly came over to explain the mobilization, and moved out of the set of loyal minister theory that the king wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die.

Just shave, it's not a big deal, two years later, it's a "hair" again, and the haircut business is booming for a while. Xu Yu didn't have any scruples about this, and he went to scratch it with a smile.

At night, I heard the maids shouting, "God, Brother Yu cut his hair." ”

Mu Ningxue hurriedly went out to take a look, and said with a smile: "Amitabha, fortunately you are a boy, otherwise you are going to be a sister-in-law?" ”

Xu Yu grinned and touched his bare head. smiled and said, "Mother, why can't the child become a monk?" ”

"You! Six are not cleaned. Mu Ningxue sighed, "It's all your father's crooked theory, and a good son-in-law has become a little monk." ”

Xu Hao also walked out, and said with a smile: "Cut it, cut it, it's cool in summer." This hair is like a weed, it can't be burned, blowing and blowing, is it very comfortable to have lice all over it? ”

"Ignore you." Mu Ningxue shook her head helplessly, turned around and went back to the room.

The girls stood everywhere and pointed at Xu Yu's head and laughed. Xu Hao also smiled and asked, "What's the matter?" Quarreled with Orchid? ”

"It's not." Xu Yu said excitedly: "Dad, the first-year students are going to be trained, and I also signed up." ”

"I see." Xu Hao nodded, and didn't ask why, his son has his own considerations when he grows up, whether it's just going out to be curious, or to cheer for the prince, or if he wants to show his loyalty, let him go. After all, Ruth in the future will have to go by herself.

"Is it fashionable to shave your head lately?" Xu Hao said to himself, today I received the news of the Shangyuan County Ya, there is a shaver who dares to pretend to be the imperial history, this case happened at the feet of the Son of Heaven. It's horrifying.

It turned out that in order to earn a little face for the county magistrate, so as to make up for their unkempt mistakes yesterday, they all came to work early in the morning.

The rooster crows too early. A few scribes lit candles, but before they could sit down, Xiao Wei ran in with a frightened expression. Exclaimed: "Strange thing! Strange! Come and see, what a strange thing! ”

"What's going on again?" Because of the many strange things that happened yesterday, several scribes were speechless, and if it goes on like this, this job must be ruined.

So they came to the back garden, through the flower hall to the door of the guest room, the scribes were inexplicable, this is the place where the Lord Yushi stayed, now is the time when the adult's dream is strong, who dares to disturb?

Xiao Wei said without hesitation: "Come in, the adults will go out before dawn." ”

"Out?" Lao Sun is younger than Lao Wang Lao Zhang, so he is bolder, and he goes in first.

The big guy was lightly moved, gently pushed open the door and saw that Lord Yushi was really not there, so he saw Xiaowei walk inside, open the wardrobe, and pull out a big leather bag from the bottom layer, isn't this the old leather bag of Yushi?

Lao Wang scolded: "You are crazy, dare to steal this person's things? Don't you want to die? Hurry up and put it back. ”

Xiao Wei said: "On the fourth watch, he beckoned me to get up and wash my face, saying that someone reported it secretly last night that there was a bad thing of bullying men and women in the countryside for dozens of miles, and he had to go to the secret investigation in person, and he would come back in a few days." I said let's have breakfast and then leave, my lord hasn't gotten up yet. But he hurriedly stopped me, saying that there was no need to be alarmed, and everyone knew that I was out of the city when I was late, so I couldn't find out. ”

Lao Wang said: "This is the duty of the imperial history, what's the fuss? ”

Xiao Wei said: "I naturally know, but why did he take away the package containing the silver, and his own leather bag was thrown away?" I came back to clean up the room, afraid that there was something important in it, so I opened it and took a look, hehe! See for yourselves. ”

As he spoke, he opened the big leather bag, which contained the barbering tools he had used yesterday, which was not unusual, everyone had been destroyed by those few things.

Then Xiao Wei took out a dignified document with a big seal on it, which was nothing unusual, everyone saw it yesterday.

Xiao Wei continued to dig again, and took out a large pile of tattered newspapers in a row, and there was nothing serious at all, which was a little strange.

Lao Zhang said: "The Metropolitan Procuratorate is close to our Shangyuan County, what are you doing with these rotten newspapers?" Odd. ”

"It's not unusual, it's strange here." Xiao Wei took out another paper bag as he spoke, and when he opened the paper bag, there was a boxy official seal inside.

"It's not uncommon for officials to carry official seals with them, what's so strange about that?" Lao Sun stretched out his hand, took the official seal, and before he could take a closer look, he shouted "Huh", and changed color and said, "What kind of seal is this?" How is it so light? ”

Scratching the seal with his fingernails, Lao Sun exclaimed, "Oops! The whole person was stunned, and sat on the ground, unable to say a word.

The official seal fell to the ground, Lao Zhang hurriedly leaned over and picked it up, and also exclaimed, the corner of the official seal was missing, how could this be?

Everyone is a person who has been in the yamen for decades, how can they not understand what is going on? The texture of the official seal has always been either copper or iron, and the official seal is carved with soap. (To be continued......)
