Kicking the door open, Zhu Yunxi stood on the porch outside the door, looking fiercely at the people in the room.
Especially the young man sitting in the main seat.
Jie Jin!
The most regrettable minister of the Ming Dynasty.
Xie Jin, who was born in the second year of Hongwu, memorized poems and essays at the age of five, wrote articles at the age of seven, memorized a thousand words at the age of ten, and read all four books and five classics at the age of twelve to implement the essentials.
In the 20th year of Hongwu, when he was only in his prime, he took part in the provincial examination of Jiangxi Province's Chief Envoy and ranked first in the Xie Yuan Dynasty.
Later, in the 21st year of Hongwu's reign, he ranked tenth among the top three Jinshi in the Wuchen Department of high school. The imperial court conferred the title of Shujishi, and in the same year he entered the Hanlin Academy.
Such a young rising star can be called a prodigy in the first ten years, and a great talent in the next ten years.
Even Zhu Yuanzhang, who had met countless talents and heroes, valued him extremely highly and often took him with him. On one occasion, he told Xie Jin that he treated him like a father and son.
It’s just that people who have been smart since childhood are generally rebellious by nature.
Later, it was precisely because of Xie Jin's character that he ended up dying in the snow.
Zhu Yunxi, who was standing outside the door, yelled and scolded him, then looked directly at Xie Jin, who was only in his twenties, and remained silent.
Xie Jin in the room did not speak.
He just looked at Zhu Yunxi who kicked open the door with a faint look, and there was no anger on his face.
On the other hand, the few people accompanying me all got up angrily.
"Where did it come from? I wonder if this is Lord Xie, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy?"
"Which family are you from? If you are so reckless today, if you don't apologize, you will be a loser tomorrow!"
"I am a man of the Ming Dynasty, so why can't I speak well about the clan and the court? If my words are unbalanced and slanderous, you can criticize me. We have not committed any offense at the moment, but if you don't give me an explanation..."<
/p>
The sound of stools moving was heard.
Jie Jin, who had never stood up before, sighed softly and stood up slowly.
Under the puzzled gazes of everyone, Jin Jin straightened his robe, pushed open his sleeves with both arms, clasped his hands together, and bowed overhead.
"I am a Hanlin scholar, Xie Jin, please see His Royal Highness the Duke."
Prince?
Your Highness?
Jie Jin's loud voice caused those friends who had just stood up to speak for him to stir up waves in their hearts and panic for a moment.
No matter which county prince Xie Jin was talking about, he quickly knelt on the ground one by one to apologize.
"I don't know Your Highness and I made a mistake in my words. Please forgive me."
According to the rules, they did not need to kneel. However, they had overstepped Zhu Yunxi's words before, and now they were begging for mercy.
Zhu Yunxi kept his eyes on Xie Jin, and when he heard these people's begging for mercy, he just hummed twice.
I have never understood these people.
He had to say coldly: "Didn't you drink enough wine?"
Handle with care.
The few people who heard Zhu Yunxi's words felt light all over, and immediately thanked him with tears of gratitude. They rushed out the door in a panic, regardless of Xie Jin who stayed in the room.
Seeing how his friends looked like this, Jie Jin, who had already finished his courtesy, looked helpless.
He looked at Zhu Yunxi and said with a wry smile: "Your Highness Yunxi, why do you do this? They are all my loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty."
Zhu Yunxi chuckled lightly, turned around and closed the door, walked up to Xie Jin, and glanced at Xie Jin who had not moved his body: "You won't give up your seat?"
Jie Jin, who was still waiting for Zhu Yunxi to speak, couldn't help but open his mouth, stepped aside with a frustrated face, and sat on the seat next to him angrily.
If this person can survive to the age of Fourth Uncle, he is considered worthy enough!
Zhu Yunxi just smiled slightly at Xie Jin's behavior, and after sitting down, he said softly: "How do you know who I am?"
Jie Jin glanced at Zhu Yunxi and said gloomily: "Your Highness was unknown before, hiding among the clans and clans, not showing up or dew. Recently, it has been like today. Even if you don't make a sound, you have become a blockbuster. With your feet, you can knock on the door."
If it’s not His Highness himself, I really can’t think of anyone else who can serve as the gateway to this elegant room.”
Zhu Yunxi looked bored and said calmly: "You are just too upright and too boring. You need to change your temper."
While he was talking, he didn't care whether the wine glass in front of him was used or not. He poured a glass of wine and tasted it.
Xie Jin raised his hand and saw that Zhu Yunxi had already used it, so he had to take back his raised hand.
Looking at Zhu Yunxi with a smile on his face, Xie Jin said unhappily: "If I change my temper, will I still be a minister? Can I still ask His Highness to knock on the door to meet me despite being blocked?"
"You guy..." Zhu Yunxi was speechless when he was asked, and his face was filled with depression and anger.
At this time, the sound of the singer's music could be heard outside.
Faintly, bursts of cheers and cheers spread to the private room.
Xie Jin laughed: "His Royal Highness took a break from school today. Did he go out to the palace for the beautiful lady outside?"
"Am I such a superficial person?"
"Did His Highness not foresee that Your Majesty would be at the Jiaofang Department today?"
Xie Jin's eyes were dark and fearless, and he glanced sideways with a smile on his face, staring at the exhausted Zhu Yunxi.
Zhu Yunxi coughed lightly to hide his embarrassment at having his intentions betrayed by this completely unreasonable guy.
At this time, Xie Jin withdrew the joking look on his face and said righteously: "I am one of the tens of thousands of ministers of the Ming Dynasty, but your highness is Qilin, the royal family of the Ming Dynasty. How can you visit such a romantic place in person? If you don't know it, your highness
If our reputation is tarnished, where is the dignity of our Ming Dynasty clan?"
Zhu Yunxi blinked: "I really just came here to have a drink and listen to music."
Xie Jin frowned and said, "There are also orchestras singing and dancing in the palace, as well as countless fine wines. Your Highness does not need to do this."
He is a guy who accepts death!
Only then did Zhu Yunxi realize that he was being set the pace by Xie Jin.
He immediately took the initiative, turned a deaf ear to Xie Jin's advice, and changed the subject: "Do you know why I came to see you?"
Xie Jin couldn't help but shout that it was over.
He pretended to be indifferent before, and then repeatedly gave advice, just to make this blockbuster grandson angry.
But now, instead of being angry, the topic has been redirected to this issue.
Xie Jin raised his head and looked at Zhu Yunxi. Seeing his face, he knew that he couldn't lie.
All he could do was sigh: "His Royal Highness intends to take exams for the school ministers, and he also intends to recruit them."
Zhu Yunxi never showed his sincerity, but smiled: "Oh... you are very confident?"
Xie Jin hummed, with pride appearing on his brows: "I memorized poems and essays at the age of five, wrote articles at the age of seven, memorized a thousand words at the age of ten, read all the four books and five classics at the age of twelve, and implemented the essentials. I took the imperial examination in high school, entered the court and became an official, and now
As a member of the Imperial Academy, how can I not be accepted by His Highness?"
Zhu Yunxi was stunned immediately.
Immediately, he burst out laughing, almost bursting into laughter.
Xie Jin swallowed back his pride, and then stood up under Zhu Yunxi's puzzled gaze: "Your Highness, although I don't have a close relationship with Your Highness, I am sincerely pleased with His Highness's recent changes. My Ming Dynasty clan is all brave and talented. However, Your Highness,
Although I have some speculation about my ambition, I dare not state it clearly."
"Soon, my father will be coming to the capital. After much thought, your Majesty may think that I am upright and lack self-cultivation, so you must ask my father to take me back to my hometown to cultivate my moral character and think about my mistakes behind closed doors."
"I am sorry that I cannot agree to the words your Highness has not spoken today."
He actually knows everything!
Even why the old man wanted his father to come to Beijing, you can guess the intention behind it!
Is this Xie Jin who has left a name in history and is like a famous minister? Is this the Xie Jin who is a great gentleman?
Zhu Yunxi finally sat upright.
He looked at Jie Jin with a deep look: "Brother, you don't need to say more about my ambition. Today I just want to ask you, brother, are you willing to return home with your father?"
