"Enter the palace and become the imperial master of the Ming Dynasty."
Under the rain curtain, Fang Xiaoru, with a book under his arm and firewood in his arms, felt that the young man outside must have lost his mind.
He looked up and looked outside the courtyard wall. The young man in the rain and mist did not hold an umbrella. He was followed by a guard. A few strands of rain-filled hair hung in front of his forehead, looking at him sincerely.
He must be an aristocratic young man from some family. He had nothing to do and started to amuse the ordinary people again.
Fang Xiaoru placed the wet firewood in her arms and the books under her arms in a sheltered place from the rain on the porch, then carried an umbrella to the courtyard wall, raised her hand and handed the umbrella outside the wall.
"Young man, it's rainy and humid, so don't stay outside."
Zhu Yunxi suddenly smiled bitterly and stared at Fang Xiaoru who was holding an umbrella in his hand rather strangely.
Sun Cheng, who was following him, perked up and said in a low voice: "Sir, this is the direct grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty, Prince Yunxi!"
Fang Xiaoru's hand holding the umbrella paused for a moment, and then under Sun Cheng's gaze, he did not show an expression of joy and excitement as he imagined, nor did he immediately open the courtyard door and invite them in.
Fang Xiaoru's face darkened and he snorted coldly.
The umbrella he had previously handed over to the courtyard wall was taken back by him, opened and placed on his head.
"you!"
Sun Cheng suddenly became angry and opened his mouth to scold, but was stopped by Zhu Yunxi who was standing beside him.
He looked at Fang Xiaoru, who was standing under the umbrella with a cold face, and thought for a moment that he knew that this... stubborn gentleman must have heard about Huang Zicheng being driven to Xuanfu Town to open Pingwei.
Zhu Yunxi thought for a moment and then said: "Mr. Xizhi is angry because Huang Zicheng, the former minister of Taichang Temple and the companion of the East Palace, was demoted to Zhixuanfu Town by the emperor?"
Xi Zhi is Fang Xiaoru’s character.
Zhu Yunxi did what he did today to come to study in the rain in order to bring Fang Xiaoru into his trap, and his angry words were undisguised.
When dealing with people like Fang Xiaoru, lying and being polite is far less effective than being upright.
Fang Xiaoru obviously did not expect that Zhu Yunxi would get into the topic so straightforwardly.
He was still dissatisfied and snorted: "The common people didn't know that it was His Highness who came here, so they offended many people. Please forgive me. The common people have no talent and virtue and cannot be worthy of big posts. I am afraid that the clan is ignorant. Please give me the permission."
Mr. Ye, the common people dare not take over, so we ask the prince to hire another Gao Ming."
It was also a straightforward rejection.
Fang Xiaoru did not leave any room for Zhu Yunxi.
As he spoke, he turned around and went back to the house.
Seeing this situation, Zhu Yunxi immediately said: "Mr. Xi Zhi! For the sake of the Ming Dynasty and the people of the world, the students invite you to teach in the palace!"
"Students can explain the matter about Huang Zicheng!"
Um?
Fang Xiaoru stopped, turned around and looked at Zhu Yunxi who was still soaked in the rain outside the courtyard wall.
He was definitely not because of what Zhu Yunxi said about the Ming Dynasty and the people of the world. He just wanted to know why Huang Zicheng was teaching in the East Palace but was demoted to Xuanfu Town.
So far, there has been no official explanation from the imperial court.
Fang Xiaoru held an umbrella and stood behind the courtyard wall with a straight face and looked at Zhu Yunxi: "Please also ask the prince to release the common people."
This is pedantry...or a common problem among upright and rigid people.
Just like Fang Xiaoru, in the end, he was willing to risk his life to disobey Zhu Di for the sake of the Ming Dynasty's orthodoxy in his mind, and ended up annihilating ten clans.
There is no doubt about the noble conduct of such a person.
But if there are people with bad intentions, they can be easily caught.
It is clear.
The current Zhu Yunxi is the person with bad intentions.
No matter how old-fashioned and pedantic Fang Xiaoru was, he was unreasonable. But as a scholar, and even now well-known as a scholar, he must have the ambition to be loyal to the emperor and contribute to the people of the world.
However, Zhu Yunxi was no longer eager to explain. Instead, he raised his head with a wry smile and looked at the closed courtyard door: "Mr. Xizhi, are you going to have a rain discussion?"
At this time, after hearing this, Fang Xiaoru's face showed embarrassment, but he still kept a straight face and said nothing. However, he had already taken a step forward, opened the courtyard door, and let Zhu Yunxi in.
When Fang Xiaoru led Zhu Yunxi into the front porch of the house, he stopped and looked back at Zhu Yunxi.
I still don’t want to invite myself into the house.
Zhu Yunxi glanced at the tea soup that had been boiling for several times in the room, and smiled: "Students often hear about Mr. Xi Zhi's talent, and they are even more fascinated by it. When I met Mr. Xi by chance today, I felt that he must be Mr. Xi Zhi. I just started thinking about it.
The idea of inviting Sir to the palace to teach."
Fang Xiaoru's face was dark. He let Zhu Yunxi in because he didn't want to hear what he said: "Your Highness, Prince of the County, Minister of Taichang Temple, why was the companion of the East Palace relegated to Xuanfu Town?"
Can’t this person listen to good things?
Zhu Yunxi reluctantly took back the smile on his face, frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Because Huang Zicheng is not a good minister or virtuous, your Majesty ordered him to go to Xuanfu Town to reflect on himself. When he wakes up, he will return to the court and grant the award."
When you are in high position!”
Zhu Yunxi doesn't know whether Huang Zicheng can respond to Tiancheng again one day.
But Fang Xiaoru in front of him must be captured.
When Fang Xiaoru heard that Zhu Yunxi said that Huang Zicheng was not a good minister or virtuous person, he couldn't help but be filled with anger. However, his excellent self-cultivation allowed him to maintain restraint and asked in a low voice: "Why did your Royal Highness say this?"
Zhu Yunxi glanced at Fang Xiaoru.
The homework I had prepared in the past few days was finally put to use.
Just listen to him say: "Mr. is a famous scholar and a talented person. He wrote "Wu Shi" based on Zhang Shicheng, who was a rebellious party in the past, to satirize the court and the world for listening to one's own beliefs and being less trustworthy than those who employ people. He also used him to make friends with Qiantang rogues and oppose exaggeration.
Feng. This is a masterpiece that combines heat and cold and conveys spirit through form. Students reread it many times and remember it in their hearts."
Zhu Yunxi spoke eloquently and eloquently, but Fang Xiaoru was shocked.
The "Wu Shi" was indeed written by himself and was widely circulated, but he never expected that the royal family members of the Ming Dynasty would actually read it and express the thoughts he wanted to express accurately.
At this time, Fang Xiaoru finally put away the anger in his heart and looked directly at Zhu Yunxi, who had not yet reached the crown.
Is this still the introverted and cowardly grandson of the Ming Dynasty emperor who is rumored to be?
At this time, Zhu Yunxi continued to say: "Mr. has written other articles such as "Metaphor", "Nose Dui", "Mosquito Dui" and other articles. He is strict in selecting talents, digging deeply, and is honest and majestic. He is bold and unconstrained, and he often goes in and out of Dongpo.
Between the rivers."
"Every time students read it, they feel that Mr. Wang should be a great talent of the country, a wise man of the country, and a blessing to the world."
All these narrations and judgments had already shaken Fang Xiaoru's mind. No matter how he thought about it, he never knew that the grandson of the royal family in front of him was so knowledgeable about his article.
The judgments about going in and out of Dongpo and Longchuan made him feel a little ashamed, mixed with joy.
However, at this time, Zhu Yunxi changed the topic: "However, your talent is not that of the scholars in the world. Your talent and learning are all yours. And even though Huang Zicheng is a disciple of Confucianism and studied first in the Imperial Academy, his words and deeds are...
But there is a huge difference from Mr.
"The gentleman is a person who puts his knowledge into practical use, but Huang Zicheng has just read it on paper."
"Students secretly believe that Huang Zicheng can abandon the teachings of sages in the face of the country and the country."
"But if one day, sir, you are faced with the instability of the country, you should die for the Ming Dynasty!"
At this time, Fang Xiaoru was deafened and dazzled by Zhu Yunxi's series of sugar-coated bullets. When he heard Zhu Yunxi judge that he would die for the Ming Dynasty, he felt a sense of pride from the bottom of his heart.
After calming down, Fang Xiaoru became more and more suspicious and puzzled.
He tried his best to control the urge to drag Zhu Yunxi into the house and talk for a long time. He suppressed his emotions and asked for the last time: "Please forgive me, Your Highness, then...what did Huang Zicheng commit?"
