Chapter 613: Hades

Chapter 613 Hell House

After Zhu Biao left the palace, his brows had not been stretched. Most of the servants in the palace were from the palace, and the rules were very good. The figure that disappeared just now was clearly the concubine left by his cousin Zhu Wenzheng.

That is Zhu Shouqian's biological mother, Chen Shi, whose age, appearance and figure are quite suitable for Cao Mengde's liking, but a little too underestimated his determination, relying on his special status to try to seduce his brother-in-law, it is extremely ridiculous.

Thinking about it, I feel that no matter how many and beautiful women are around the prince, it is boring. It is not as good as a special widow like her. In the past dynasties, no matter whether it is a Tian family or a high-ranking family, such dirty things are not uncommon, but it is not too rare.

There are both father-in-law and daughter-in-law, not to mention younger uncles and sister-in-laws. It's just that it is ridiculed if it is spread, but I don't know whether it is Chen's idea or Zhu Shouqian's.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhu Biao felt that Zhu Shouqian should have proposed it, and the Chen family was probably also willing. Their mother and son have enjoyed the blessings of Zhu Wenzheng's achievements in Hongdu in the past, and both Lao Zhu and Empress Ma have taken care of them.

It's just that the relationship is almost gone now. Zhu Shouqian, a **** son, has inherited the title of the county king. Now it seems that this kid may not even be able to keep this title.

Has Zhu Wenzheng's paranoid and arrogant temperament, but does not have his general talent. To be honest, Zhu Biao, a cousin, should be closer to his cousin.

But since he was a child, he always liked his cousin Li Wenzhong more, and his impression of Zhu Wenzheng was that gloomy demeanor, especially after Zhu Wenzheng was banned from Tongcheng, he indulged wantonly, treated people like grass and trees, and did evil endlessly. , and his subordinates steal people's wives, kill people's husbands, destroy people's sons, murder people's fathers, take people's wealth by force, and all control their power.

But in the end, the deceased has passed away, and he still has the merits of Hongdu. Although Zhu Biao is not very close to his son, he can be regarded as taking care of him. He attacked, what else?

Zhu Biao's brows soothed and his face turned back to indifference. Whether it's safe for wealth or honor, whether it's self-defeating, it's all self-inflicted, and he can't change a person's temper in his bones.

My own father has a good saying, drink the golden cup with you, and you will not forgive each other. If you have meritorious service, the court will reward you, and if you have done evil, the court will not let it go. The majesty of the law must be established after all. Relatives are also sanctioned by the clan government.

Old Zhu cares about blood and family, but Zhu Biao does not. When it is really necessary, let alone a nephew or younger brother, even his own son will not be soft. If you are strict with others and treat yourself leniently, how can you obey the world and how can you legislate?

Although he knows that he can do it, it does not mean that his successor can also do it, but just like Lao Zhu who wants to ensure that his heirs can succeed in the rule, at the beginning of the founding of the country, it is always necessary to set a good example.

If future kings really want to punish their clan relatives, there is a precedent to follow. Not every monarch can have the arbitrary authority of their father and son. Clan filial piety can really crush people to death.

The car drove to the Yan Mansion, which was not too small, but if compared with the first three houses, it was much shabby. It was just a second-entry house. When the curtain of the car was lifted, Zhu Biao saw a dozen children of the Yan family kneeling to welcome him.

"Weichen (students) welcome His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness forever!"

Yan Donglai has three sons, the eldest two have already entered the official position, the eldest is serving as a political envoy in Yangzhou, the second is working as a editor in the Imperial Academy, and the youngest is still studying in the Imperial College.

Actually, Yan Donglai’s eldest son still lacks the qualifications to be the chief envoy, but some time ago Yan Donglai’s life was on the line, whether it was to relieve his worries, to celebrate happiness, or to buy a horse bone for a thousand dollars, in short, he was promoted exceptionally.

Zhu Biao got off the car and stood in front of the boss Yan Qingmo, only to see him bowing again: "My father is recovering from a serious illness and is about to go out to greet him, but I was stopped by my minister. Please forgive me, Your Highness."

"Get up, I will punish you only if you don't stop me."

"Your Highness benevolent."

The Yan family who got up all stood quietly on the side, and their eyes would not touch the crown prince's neck to show respect. Yan Donglai's family style is very strict, and Zhu Biao has heard of it.

"No."

Zhu Biao glanced at Yan Qingmo who was beside him and said: "Since your father has passed the difficult time, and there are two younger brothers in Beijing to take care of you, you should go to Yangzhou to take up the post as soon as possible, and don't disappoint the trust of the Holy Majesty."

Yan Qing Mo Ying said: "Even if I set off for the post tomorrow, I will definitely not disgrace the lintel, and dare not disregard the trust of my father!"

While speaking, they arrived at Yan Donglai's bedroom. Yan Qingmo opened the door first, and saw two servants kneeling on the ground supporting Yan Donglai, who was in shape, and the bone marks on his back could be seen through the underwear.

"The humble minister Yan Dong came to see Your Highness, please forgive me for your lack of manners."

Seeing this, Zhu Biao hurriedly ordered: "What are you doing, put your master on the bed quickly, don't catch a cold!"

Yan Qingmo and the others immediately went up to help, Zhu Biao looked at Yan Donglai, who was a little out of breath after finishing a sentence, and couldn't help reprimanding: "Why is this between you and my monarch and ministers, I came to visit you because I hope you will recover soon , good monarchs and ministers work together to protect the people's livelihood and the country, if this hurts the body again, what should I do!"

Zhu Biao's words immediately made the old and young women and children of the Yan family who heard it burst into tears of gratitude, and couldn't help weeping. Yan Donglai's illness frightened them, and they were afraid that the lintel that was about to rise would decline again.

On the other hand, Yan Donglai lay down on the couch weakly and said with a weak smile: "When Your Highness is in trouble, the minister is suffering from a serious illness. Not only did he fail to share his worries, but he also made His Highness worry about it. If His Highness came to the door in person, the minister would not be able to salute. I am ashamed of myself." ah."

Liu Jin moved a stool, Zhu Biao sat in front of the couch, looked at the imperial physician who had just entered, and said, "Please trouble the imperial physician Zhang to take the pulse again."

"No."

The imperial physician got up after putting his hands together for a while and replied: "Reporting to Your Highness, Yan Siqing is fine, I just go down and prescribe some warming and tonic decoction, but before I get better, I must not make such a fuss."

Zhu Biao's brows were relieved: "You heard it all, you have to take care of it in the future."

Yan Qingmo and the others bowed to promise, seeing Yan Donglai's confidant minister like this, Zhu Biao couldn't keep his face sullen, so he calmed down and began to talk about some light things.

After a while, Yan Donglai cheered up and said, "Your Highness, I'm afraid I will have to take care of this illness for a long time. The most important part of Dali Temple cannot be separated from others. I asked the dog to write the memorial for me last night. Please make arrangements early. yes."

Zhu Biao nodded slightly and said: "The complicated and trivial matters in Dali Temple are indeed not suitable for cultivating the sick body. It's best if you think so. My palace will arrange it. Don't think too much about it. You and my monarch and ministers will last for a long time."

Yan Donglai raised his hand and waved, Yan Qingmo immediately led the family back, and soon there were only people brought by Zhu Biao left in the hall, Yan Donglai said: "The members of Dali Temple are so complicated, please let them go after your highness decides on a good candidate." Come to the minister's mansion to explain, who can be used and who can't be used, there must be an explanation, so as not to miss His Highness's important matter."

Zhu Biao has no reason for disapproval. Yan Donglai has been in charge of Dali Temple for several years and has a solid foundation. Although he has retired from illness, he will recover after recovery and have a bright future. Without his guidance and support, it will not be easy for others to successfully take charge of Dali Temple matter.

Everyone has a steelyard in their hearts, and it is common for them to step up to the strong and trample on the weak. So what if they have the opportunity to give charcoal to His Highness's confidantes, even if they are suppressed for a while?

Zhu Biao is too lazy to take care of the following trivial matters, because he can't manage them. If there is a way to make officials keep the law of nature and destroy human desires, then he has already figured out a way to do it, but human nature is like this, so there is nothing like it.

When Liu Yu was in power in the Southern Han Dynasty, in order to prevent officials from having selfish desires, he decreed that only those who had become eunuchs from the palace could be officials.

Therefore, even though some officials in the past dynasties have their personal morals deficient, as long as they are capable enough to convince the public and solve the government affairs beautifully and satisfactorily, as long as the red line is not touched, the superiors will generally turn a blind eye.
