The old man is really right in what he said, a dog cannot change its habit of eating shit.
The court meeting had just ended in the morning. He, Lan Yu, had gone home and closed his door for half a day to reflect on his past, before he sent his son to see him.
After being stripped of his official position and only being left with a title, he is still so dishonest. Doesn’t Lan Yu know what it means to be a man with his tail between his legs?
That's right, if he knew what restraint was and how to tuck his tail, he wouldn't be Lan Yu!
Zhu Yunxi thought for a moment, then turned around and said, "Bring it here!" Then he said to Zhu Yunwen, "Second brother, let me use your side hall!"
Zhu Yunwen nodded, but spoke to advise, "Domineering warriors are not a blessing to the country. My grandson is a member of the country, and he should regard virtuous and civil servants as his confidants. He must not emphasize martial arts over civility!" After saying that, he cupped his hands and said, "My lord, you have overstepped your bounds!
"
"I know you mean well!" Zhu Yunxi smiled, got up and went out.
Everyone has their own limitations of vision. This limitation is caused by the times and is not their own fault. Zhu Yunxi will not attach too much importance to warriors, but he will never value literature over martial arts and let civil servants suppress warriors.
Later, Zhu Yunxi met Lan Yu's eldest son, Lan Chun, in the side hall of Zhuwang Pavilion.
"Your Majesty, Lan Chun, please see Your Highness Taisun!" Lan Chun is Lan Yu's eldest son, and he is almost the exact same mold as his father. "Your Highness, I am a thousand years old!"
Zhu Yunxi raised the hem of his skirt, crossed his legs, dusted off the non-existent dust on his clothes, and said expressionlessly, "Did your father ask you to come?"
"When my father returned home, he fell ill and vomited three liters of blood..."
"Stop it!" Zhu Yunxi saw Lan Chun crying and was a little impatient, so he said, "The morning meeting just ended, and you feel sick in the afternoon? You still vomited three liters of blood? Do you want to go to the hospital for consultation?"
"I know why you came here? But do you know why I saw you?"
Lan Chun wiped her tears and said, "His Royal Highness is very affectionate to the Lan family, and I know that in my heart. My father once said that for everyone in the family, His Royal Highness, the grandson, should be the one who follows your lead and follows your lead!"
"You're right, the reason why I met you is because I still have you in my heart." Zhu Yunxi said solemnly, "Today, the emperor was so angry that he spared your father's title and life, and it's also because he still has you in his heart!"
As he spoke, Zhu Yunxi changed the topic, "You work as a military officer in front of the palace. I heard that you have always been mature, prudent, stable and generous."
Not knowing why Zhu Yunxi praised himself, Lan Chun said, "My lord, I'm just trying my best!"
"You know that if you say the words "dedicate one's heart and soul", you are better than your father! At least you have a sense of awe, don't ask for credit and show favor, and don't be domineering and arrogant!" Zhu Yunxi sneered, "As a son, you must not be foolish and filial. Your father has a perverse temper, you
Please give me more advice!"
"Take your meeting with me as an example. Do you think you should come at this time? Grandpa Huang just dealt with your father in the morning, and you come to me to cry in the afternoon? The cry is false. Test my tone and let me mediate.
That’s the real thing, right?”
Lan Chun was shocked and cried, "Your Highness, my family is really frightened and I really don't know what to do. At this time, I can only ask Your Highness to give me a clear way so that I can feel at ease!"
"What Grandpa Huang said is a clear path. How to punish you will be carried out!" Zhu Yunxi said, "Be honest at home and think about your mistakes behind closed doors. Reflect on your mistakes over the years. What are you afraid of? What are you afraid of when you are alone?"
Hearing what Zhu Yunxi said, Lan Chun understood clearly and thanked him, "I, on behalf of my father, would like to express my gratitude to Your Highness for your kindness!"
"I don't want to say these words. But I am thinking about the friendship between the Lan and Chang families, and your father's achievements in fighting in the wind and rain over the years. The title is still there, and the contribution he made to the Ming Dynasty is still there, so we can make up for it.
It’s not too late!”
"Let your father rest at home, stop fighting with other people, and stay on your own terms. Also, I would like to say again, remember to reflect on your mistakes over the years, and admit your mistakes with sincerity and not be perfunctory."
"Your father has already been charged with disrespecting the emperor. You cannot have another person who deceives you. Do you understand?"
"I understand!" Lan Chun knelt down and said, "I will convey the words of His Highness the Grand Sun to my father when I get back!"
"Not only must you convey it, but you must also let him understand it!" Zhu Yunxi sighed, "It should be noted that the Li and Hu families still have lessons learned from their past mistakes. Grandpa Huang gave your father a chance, and Gu also gave him a chance. Don't be ignorant."
Li Shanchang and Hu Weiyong also made great contributions to the country, but ended up dead and their families were destroyed, involving tens of thousands of people.
Suddenly, Lan Chun was covered in cold sweat and felt flustered.
"You are also an official and a minister of the Ming Dynasty. What are you saying? The memorial to impeach him has been released. Have you seen the charges? If it had been anyone else, I would have been sent to prison long ago!" Zhu Yunxi said again
He said, "Grandpa Huang and Gu are different from your Lan family. You need to know more about your interests."
With that said, Zhu Yunxi waved his hand, "Go back, sue your father, stay at home and think about your mistakes behind closed doors. If you cause any trouble, I won't be able to protect you!"
"Yes!" Lan Chun kowtowed, "I retire!"
Watching him walk away, Zhu Yunxi felt a little tired. It is easier to deal with smart people, but it is really tiring to deal with people with low emotional intelligence.
At this time, you, Lan Yu, must be at home honestly, right? Why did you send your son here? You still have to see him. If Zhu Yunxi doesn't see you, the censors who have heard the news will think it is a signal. The impeachment details are
Wave after wave.
It would be nice to meet him and give the Lan family some reassurance.
"Shame on you bastard!" Zhu Yunxi turned around and said.
"The slave is here!"
"Take Gu's handwriting and leave the palace!" Zhu Yunxi said slowly, "Go now and come back before the palace is locked up! Go to Gu's uncle's house!"
"Yes!" The bastard said in a low voice.
"Go quietly and don't alert others!"
"This slave knows!"
The Changlan family is both prosperous and prosperous, and both suffer losses.
Lan Yu is now being dealt with by the old man, and he will not be able to stand up in a short time. Then his faction in the army will have no backbone. The Chang family can temporarily become the backbone of this force, but the premise is that they cannot be together with the Lan family at this time
There is any involvement.
Moreover, Zhu Yunxi also wanted to tell Lan Yu's warriors through the mouth of the Chang family to calm down now and stop thinking in private all day long, talking nonsense, and making trouble for themselves.
~~~~~
At the same time, at Shuijing Hutong in Nancheng, at the entrance of Zhao's house.
Zhao Sili watched his daughter open the door from a distance. Behind her, the old prince actually helped her carry the vegetable basket. His strong body was leaning against the wall, as if he wanted to kneel on the ground like mud.
"The ancestors appeared! The Zhao family is prosperous!"
Zhao Sili murmured to himself that both the emperor and his grandson had come to his home and had to eat at his own home. This was a rare good thing!
However, then some confusion appeared in his mind.
"Why?"
"Why is it my own home?"
Zhao Sili is not stupid, and after much thought, there is only one possibility. He is a low-ranking official of the sixth rank, and in the eyes of the emperor and the grandson, he is like an ant. And his daughter, inexplicably came to the palace to admire the flowers a few days ago.
.
Look again, the old prince looks at his daughter with a smiling expression.
"Is it possible that it has something to do with my daughter?"
He leaned against the corner and thought about the somewhat flattering attitude the commander of the Imperial Guard had towards him just now.
"Could it be.........?"
"Could it be that the emperor..."
When I thought of this, the excitement that I was about to achieve great success suddenly disappeared.
My daughters are the same age, but the old prince’s hair is all white.
Although he, Zhao Sili, was somewhat utilitarian, he was not willing to push his daughter into a pit of fire.
But that's the emperor...
If this is really the case, what can you do?
As I thought about it, I felt a little lost.
"Brother Zhao, go home!" Jiang Wei smiled behind Zhao Sili, "The Emperor is waiting!"
"Hey!" Zhao Sili responded bitterly, and walked out slowly with heavy legs.
Zhao Ning'er, who had just opened the door, looked back when she heard footsteps, "Dad, are you back?" She said with a smile, "We have guests at home, Eunuch Mei from the palace, and this old man!
"Why don't you want to be demoted?" The old man looked at it and understood why Zhao Sili had received the message. He smiled and said, "Today, we are an uninvited guest. Mr. Zhao, don't be surprised!"
"It's my blessing that you can come!" Zhao Sili said humbly, "I am very grateful to you!"
"The more you say it, the more wrong it becomes. If you are like this, how will we eat this meal?" Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile.
Zhao Ning'er stuck out her tongue, "Dad, do you know this old man?" Then, looking at Zhu Yuanzhang again, Fu An said, "Old man, I didn't know you were a high official, so I'm neglecting you!"
"What's the point of being negligent!" Zhu Yuanzhang laughed, "Girl, hurry up and cook, our stomachs are all empty!"
