Chapter 699 Imperceptibly
Chen Xi smiled and waved his hand and said, "You can't say it, you can't say it."
"Okay, you dare to deceive me. I will report to my father and let him punish you." Zhu Houzhao finally brought out the prince's airs and threatened Chen Xi.
Chen Xi thought to himself, I even know when you died in history, but some things are so obscure. If you say them rashly, it is an enemy of the times.
Chen Xi asked, "Captain can you tell me how many brothers are fighting against each other in this throne?"
"What do you mean?"
Zhu Houzhao looked at Chen Xi and felt a heavy feeling that what he was most worried about was that the throne would be occupied. He had never even thought about this before, and it was Chen Xi who brought him this sense of crisis.
Chen Xidao: "In all dynasties, no matter the foolish monarchs and wise rulers, there were bloody killings when the throne changed. Even the prosperous Tang Dynasty had the Xuanwu Gate changes, and brothers and feet were destroyed. How could Emperor Taizong of Tang evaluate him in history?"
Zhu Houzhao thought for a while and said, "It should be OK?"
Even Emperor Taizong of Tang is just fine. Do you want to be the Qin Emperor and Han Wu in the future? Don’t look at the era you are in, and if there is such a chance!
"Not only in the Tang Dynasty, there were Liu Che and King Liang in the Han Dynasty, there were candle shadows and axes in the Song Dynasty, and even the Jin Kingdom established by barbarians also had Wanyan Heng and Wanyan Zongbi compete for the throne. It can be said that there are countless dynasties and dynasties in the throne. So, will my Ming Dynasty be peaceful?"
Chen Xi raised a new issue, why did the history Zhu Houzhao learnt was completely reporting disasters, and only the Ming Dynasty was prosperous and the people were safe?
Chen Xi intentionally triggered the prince's thinking and made him realize a problem. The knowledge he learned was modified by others, and what he could learn could not be decided by himself.
"Which emperor of our Ming Dynasty was caused by the slaughter of brothers and sisters?" Zhu Houzhao was a little dissatisfied and questioned.
Chen Xi said: "Then you have to discover the prince yourself. Read more history books, and you will discover many secrets from it. If I were to tell the prince, wouldn't the prince lack the pleasure of discovery?"
"Discover?"
Zhu Houzhao frowned, thinking that Chen Xi was so complicated. She could just say anything directly. Why do you need to discover it? I just thought it didn’t exist at all and then you would find something that didn’t exist!
Chen Xi continued to read his case, but Zhu Houzhao was a little angry if he couldn't get the answer. She directly grabbed Chen Xi's case sect, threw it on the ground, and said, "You tell me clearly today!"
Chen Xi said coldly: "If the prince wants to know something that you don't know, pick up the booklet!"
"I won't pick you up, it depends on how you!" Zhu Houzhao became angry. He has always ignored other lecturers and is very "tolerant" to Chen Xi. But when he found that Chen Xi was just perfunctory to him, he felt that his kindness was regarded as a donkey's liver and lungs, "seriously hurting" his feelings!
This would not have any hindrance to Chen Xi. Anyway, I remember the case in my heart, and it doesn't matter whether I read it or not. Since Zhu Houzhao didn't pick it up for him, he just took a book to read it. In this way, the sulking Zhu Houzhao would no longer bother him about Taizu's passing on the throne of Taizong.
When the class was in the afternoon, Zhu Houzhao saw Chen Xi with a calm expression and was taught his class without any speed. He seemed to be not worried about him at all, and he was immediately discouraged.
After thinking about it, he still did not have the confidence to let Chen Xi bow his head and admit defeat. Zhu Houzhao calmed down. When he was listening to the class, he looked at Chen Xi eagerly, and couldn't help but want to apologize and "reconcile" with the young man.
At this point, this kid finally had a little enlightenment and the only one who could help him now was Chen Xi. If Chen Xi offends Chen Xi, his plan to leave the palace will be completely ruined.
Chen Xi did not give Zhu Houzhao a chance, which is one of the courses Chen Xi gave to naughty children. Since you chose to offend others, you have to bear the corresponding consequences. Only sincerity can be exchanged for the trust of others. If you just use authority to oppress others, all you can get is a blind obedience and a blind obedience that cannot be treated sincerely.
Chen Xi would not explain this to Zhu Houzhao clearly. He wanted to subtly change Zhu Houzhao's character.
Any small change to Zhu Houzhao may change the direction of history.
Zhu Houzhao in history is a flower in a greenhouse that he will not consider anything other than eating, drinking and having fun. His willful behavior is precisely because of the special environment. No one teaches him the role of wisdom and strategy. As long as he waves his hand and talks, he can get everything he wants. This is an extremely terrible thing!
Chen Xi wanted to change Zhu Houzhao's arbitrary behavior, and it may be too late from now on, because this kid is not in power, has not grown up and has a childlike heart, and his personality is far from fixed, and he can exert some influence. But if Emperor Hongzhi dies in another two or three years, Chen Xi believes that even water will not be poured in.
The conflict between Shen Mingjun and his wife continues.
During this period, Yu Niang brought news to Chen Xi, and Fujian Chengcheng announced that there was a result from the Political and Envoy Department that the Tingzhou Chamber of Commerce industries were confiscated and confiscated, but the personnel would be released one after another, although some chamber of commerce people had been tortured to death in the cell.
This is the dark place in the Ming Dynasty. It is easy to get into a cell but difficult to get out. People who die in the prison only need to file a record, and even don’t need to give a reasonable explanation to their families.
The Tingzhou Chamber of Commerce's industry in Fuzhou City was overturned. At least Zhanggui Yin and his wife came out of prison. However, a few days after Zhanggui Yin was out of prison, he died of torture in prison. Mrs. Yin was also unable to afford to be ill due to her husband's death. Yin Wen's parents were still well, but they were not known to outsiders.
After Chen Xi told Yin Wen the news, the little girl leaned in Shen Xi's arms and cried for a long time. Finally, she raised her head timidly and said, "I want my mother."
With such a simple request, Chen Xi had to fulfill her wish even if she went through fire and water.
Chen Xi's next step is to transfer all the personnel of the Tingzhou Chamber of Commerce in Fuzhou City. Those who return to their hometowns will find ways to send them to other places for resettlement. Yin Wen's family will receive the capital. Since he promised to Yin Shanggui and his wife that he would marry Yin Wen, he would take on the responsibility of being a husband and not want Yin Wen to suffer a little harm, and he would try his best to satisfy even the more difficult requests.
In mid-February, the cold war between Shen Mingjun and his wife finally came to an end. Zhou could not bear the pain of not having a husband in life, so he finally took his children home. The couple reconciled and decided to go back to Ninghua after discussion, and then returned to the capital after the matter was resolved.
"Mom, why do you have to go back?" After Chen Xi learned about Shen Mingjun and his wife's decision, he couldn't help but want to persuade Zhou.
"Otherwise, what would happen? Your father's unscrupulous man said that his mother was sick and had to go back and see it with his own eyes no matter what. He said that this was related to filial piety. If our family made a reputation of unfiliality, would it be good for your future career?" Zhou cursed. It seemed that the reason why he compromised with Shen Mingjun and returned to Ninghua was mainly because of the official voice of Chen Xi.
Chen Xi felt moved. Although Zhou had many mistakes, his care for him was sincere. He said immediately: "It's a pity that my child can't go back with you."
"Even if you want to go back, I won't let you go." Zhou cursed, "Boy, stay in the capital and teach the prince well. As long as you have the ability, it's worth it even if your mother works hard. When we come back, Yun'er should give you a baby, and I'll take care of you."
Zhou said a lot of instructions. Chen Xi used to feel upset, but he could see that Zhou was wiping tears while talking. No matter how hard his heart was, he softened. He listened carefully to Zhou's words.
"Your Aunt Sun won't go back. She stays in the capital. Remember to help take care of her, but don't go over and disturb her."
After talking for a long time, Zhou finally talked about something that Chen Xi was concerned about.
Shen Mingjun and his wife wanted to return to Tingzhou because the Shen family's roots were in Ninghua County, but Huiniang was not from Tingzhou. She has taken out her daughter now, and there are also people taking care of the real estate and land, so she has no worries in Tingzhou Prefecture.
Even if Shen Mingjun and his wife returned home, Hui Niang didn't say that they would go back together to revive their strength and manage the Tingzhou Chamber of Commerce. It seemed that Hui Niang was more adaptable to life in the capital than Shen Mingjun and his wife.
On the day Shen Mingjun and his wife left, it happened to be Chen Xi's turn to go to the palace to teach the prince. He did not leave the city to see him off, and even Hui Niang did not show up because she was afraid that she would be embarrassed when she met Chen Xi.
Hui Niang herself didn't know why she had to escape from Chen Xi. Perhaps she felt that Chen Xi was old and could no longer dote on him like a child.
After class at noon that day, while there was no one, Zhu Houzhao proudly told Chen Xi of the new plan he designed: "I told my mother that I have stayed in the Xiefang Palace these days, and I will rest after lunch. No one is allowed to disturb me in the middle of the journey. Then I will change into the eunuch's clothes and leave the palace with you!"
Zhu Houzhao was "creative" when he could think of changing into eunuch's clothes. After all, Chen Xi had never mentioned any details about him before.
"Have you ever heard of the story of no silver here? " Chen Xi asked.
"I heard that you asked me why this?" Zhu Houzhao's little nose and small eyes wrinkled together.
Chen Xidao: "The prince suddenly said he wanted to stay in Xiefang Palace to rest. How could the queen just ask? If the queen thinks you are sick and wants to check in your room, what do you think?"
"this"
Zhu Houzhao thought for a while and said, "I'll let Eunuch Liu stop you outside."
"That means, you will tell the plan to a third party. Regardless of whether Eunuch Liu can stop the queen, how dare the prince protect him from leaking the news?" Chen Xi continued to induce Zhu Houzhao to think divergently.
"He dares, as long as he dares to leak the news, I will find someone to break his leg." Zhu Houzhao said sternly.
Chen Xi nodded: "The prince does have the right to break Eunuch Liu's leg. If I were to be afraid, I would be afraid, but if the prince left the palace and the queen knew that he would lose his head. The two evils were the least, then is it important to protect his legs or to protect his head?"
"What does it mean to choose the least?"
Zhu Houzhao didn't understand the new term Chen Xi said very well.
Chen Xidao: "If there are two bad things, one of them will inevitably happen, one is to lose the head and the other is to lose the legs. Then which one will the prince choose?"
"Who dares to kill my head and break my legs?" Zhu Houzhao slapped his chest. After seeing Chen Xi's stern gaze, he thought for a while, "It should be a loss of his legs. He only has one life. It's better to live than to die."
Chen Xi spreads his hands, and the meaning is very obvious. Even if you choose this, how can you guarantee that Liu Jin won’t sell you?
"Okay, Liu Jin, you dare to take the least of the two evil deeds with me? I turned around and told him something wrong. I haven't told him about it yet, and he didn't lose his legs, let alone his head. What choice should I make?" Zhu Houzhao's little head was no longer enough.
No one taught him these evil ways before, and Chen Xi could be said to be subtly changing his worldview.
"What should I do?" Zhu Houzhao asked.
Chen Xidao: "If the prince does not go to Kunning Palace, will the queen come to see the prince as soon as possible?"
"My mother used to come to Xiefang Palace often, but this time she recovered from serious illness, she only came to see her occasionally. What's wrong?"
"That's it. Don't think about how to hide the queen for now. The important thing is how to hide it from the people around the prince. As long as they don't know that the prince leaves the palace, the queen will naturally not know!"
