Chapter 744 Fuguo Gong was wronged

Zhu Di glared at his ministers and said coldly: "What are your plans? I know, and you know, don't force me to tear this surface! At present, the Ming Dynasty puts national affairs first, and you all agreed to work hard to build railways a few days ago. This is a good thing. I have comforted a little. But don't be disrespectful. Dongfan Island is still short of many people who grow sugarcane!

After Zhu Di finished speaking, he waved his sleeves and drove the things down. As for the most unlucky Chen Ying threw herself on the ground and barely got up. However, his legs were numb and he fell down. He even knocked off a front tooth, covering his mouth full of blood, and became embarrassed.

This minister can no longer be a minister. The emperor and Liu Chun are in harmony with each other. How can we still be separated? How can we live?

They sighed and everyone understood. Zhu Di stopped the morning court and only asked officials above the third rank to come to the palace for a lecture. His attitude was clear. Zhu Di was unwilling to argue with all the officials, and he could not tell any right or wrong when there were too many people.

Now that the Emperor has handed over the task to you, whoever causes trouble will cause trouble will be the consequences if you are not strictly governing it!

All the officials fled in a panic and sighed.

Zhu Di was in a good mood here. He took off his dragon robe, threw away his hat, immediately changed into casual clothes, and took two eunuchs to the Liu Mansion.

Zhu Di's calculations are very clear. I helped you block the disaster and even erected a stone statue for you. Don't you express your feelings if you are surnamed Liu? Just take out 30 to 50 million taels.

If there is something else, I will not refuse.

OK, this is a bandit coming to the door and you have to collect protection fees!

Liu Chun lay on the chair, enjoying the afternoon sun.

Since the black cat abandoned the darkness and turned to light, he has no pets anymore and can only stand outside the yard and watch the two black cats on the tree trunk live a shameless life.

This cat was so sucked up.

He simply changed his hobby and changed his career to raise crickets, but raising crickets is not easy. His apprentice Yu Qian is a master. Liu Chun fought with his apprentice several times but never won.

The boy's secretly smirk made Liu Chun very angry.

"Don't be proud of you, kid. I'll give you to Duke Liang in a while and let him train you well."

Yu Qian was not afraid at all, "I am just about to learn more skills. Master can fulfill my wishes, but I am grateful to you."

It's bad. Does this guy dislike his lack of ability? The bad guy is also erecting his tail. It's becoming more and more difficult for these people to fiddle with. Liu Chun grabbed his hair with distress. It's really worrying. Can't you be simpler?

This is called teaching the disciples and starving the master to death. The ancients really did not deceive me!

Liu Chun looked up at the sky and sighed.

At this time, Zhu Laosi came with a smile. When he saw Liu Chun lying down, he did not let him stand up, but took the initiative to say, "I know what you are worried about, I will help you solve it."

After Liu Chun sat upright, he slowly said, "How come Your Majesty helps, why don't you know?"

Zhu Di laughed loudly, "Are you worried about your apprentice?"

"Yes, that little boy is too hard to control."

"It's okay." Zhu Di said generously: "Your disciples are my disciples. They are trying to gain reputation for you and set up stone statues. I think it's very good. In a word, this is what you deserve. Don't worry, I have settled it, you don't have to worry."

Wait a minute!

What the two of them said seemed to be the same thing!

"Your Majesty, how do you know that the person who set up the stone statue for me is my disciple?"

Zhu Di also frowned. Isn’t this a joke?

If you are not your apprentice, who can set up a stone statue for you? Are they brains sick?

"Your Majesty, I must make it clear that my disciples have only five and a half at most."

"Five and a half?"

"Yes, three and a half of them belong to your family, and the only ones left are Yu Qian and Zhu Yong. Even the scientific research teams under the King of Han are under Tao Chengdao's disciples, but they are not my apprentices."

Zhu Di frowned. This is not bad. Liu Chun has five formal disciples, Zhu Dapang, Zhu Xiaoer, Zhu Xiaosan, Zhu Yong, and Yu Qian. As for that half, he is his disciple Zhu Zhanji.

The rest are not considered Liu Chun's official disciples.

"You can't be so ruthless. Like Liu Zheng and others, there are Jimingshan Academy, Fengyang Academy, Changsha Academy, and Jiaotong University, these are all your subordinates, don't you?"

"No!" Liu Chun immediately denied, "Your Majesty, if you calculate this, all scholars in the world, as long as those who have learned to write textbooks, will be my disciples."

Zhu Di nodded, "That's right, I think so. I have promised you to be a saint, to let you command scholars and assist the Ming Dynasty well. Is my words still false?"

Liu Chun shook his head violently, his face was particularly serious, "Your Majesty, you can make any joke, but we can't make this joke. If these people are my disciples, I, the master, have to be responsible for anything they have done, right? Sorry, I don't have that great ability."

"What's more, there are so many people, good and bad, and all the mud and sand. I don't know what trouble they caused. In the end, they all were all recorded on my head. Wouldn't they become suckers!"

Zhu Di frowned, and he could hear that Liu Chun had something in his words.

At this moment, Yang Hao and Luo Zhong, a thousand households of the Jinyiwei, rushed over. Luo Zhong was Luo Feng's younger brother, and his brother was still staying in Yingtian, so he sent him over to do business for Liu Chun.

The two of them looked hurried and immediately saluted when they saw Zhu Di.

"I bow to your Majesty!"

"No gift!"

Zhu Di said calmly: "What do you have to do?"

Yang Hao said: "Your Majesty, there is something important to report. The person who set up a stone statue of Liu Sheng outside Jiaotong University last night has been arrested."

Zhu Di raised his eyebrows and said calmly: "How is it? Who are they?"

"Speak to Your Majesty, and according to their confession, they all said that they were subordinates of Liu Xue and were speaking out for Mr. He and Mr. Debe, Confucius and Mencius, should have a statue of God for everyone to admire."

After hearing Yang Hao's words, Zhu Di glanced at Liu Chun and looked at him, "Look, is it your apprentice, right?" Maybe you may not know him, and you have never taught him at all, but if someone believes in your doctrine and regards himself as your disciple, you will not be able to escape this matter.

Liu Chun ignored Zhu Di's chuckling and asked again: "What about those who attacked the Confucius Temple and destroyed the statue of the gods? What did they say?"

"They also claimed to be the disciples of the Lord. It was natural that they said that they had set up statues of gods for the Lord. It was unbearable that someone threw blood on the statues of gods. They wanted to take revenge, so they rushed to the Confucius Temple, smashed the hypocritical statue of Confucius and Mencius, and said that they wanted to welcome the Lord into the Confucian Temple."

Liu Chun was stunned, "What a group of good students!"

Zhu Di didn't say anything, but he understood the meaning in his eyes again. You kid is not enough to be washed away. He is your disciple. I have blocked such a big disaster for you. If I don't show any more, then will he still be a human?

So, you stand up obediently and wait for me to quarrel!

Liu Chun pondered for a moment and smiled, "What about those people who poured blood on the stone statue? Have you found it?"

Yang Hao looked embarrassed, "Please forgive me for being incompetent, there is no news yet."

After hearing this, Liu Chun smiled immediately. His smile seemed very unfathomable. Zhu Di frowned. As the emperor, his IQ is definitely not much worse than Liu Chun. What is this kid laughing at?

Something is wrong!

"Create a stone statue and attack the Confucian Temple. It is easy for those who do these two things to investigate. After tracing it, you will find that it is your subordinate. But it is not bad to throw blood on the stone statue. Are they more skillful? Or are your subordinates too useless?" Zhu Di swept the two Jinyiwei leaders. Yang Hao was so scared that he immediately lowered his head, but Luo Zhong raised his head and his voice was loud.

"Your Majesty, it's not that I can't find it, but that after someone erected a stone statue, I immediately sent someone over and happened to meet someone who was splashing blood. Then my subordinates went to investigate, but as they chased after them, these people disappeared."

"Disappeared? Disappeared out of thin air?"

"No, they ran to a place called Zhengdao Guild Hall."

"Zhengdao Guild Hall?"

Zhu Di frowned. In the capital, guild halls emerged one after another. Some were in a province, and some were large prefectures, such as Suzhou, Hangzhou, etc. Other business groups, business numbers, and even academies would establish their own guild halls to communicate with each other.

What is this Zhengdao Guild Hall?

"Your Majesty, shortly after the court decided to start a school, a Zhengdao Academy appeared, gathering a large number of erudite scholars and officials who retired. They established the Zhengdao Academy in the name of following the righteous path and promoting education. Last year, the disciples of the Zhengdao Academy made great achievements in the provincial examinations in various southern provinces and gained great reputation. It is said that this year they will show their skills and get a good ranking in the imperial examinations."

After hearing Luo Zhong's introduction, Zhu Di couldn't help frowning, "Zhengdao Academy? Could it be that these people are all corrupt scholars, reject science, and are unwilling to accept the proposal of the Duke of Fuguo?"

Luo Zhong said: "I heard from Your Majesty that if you are corrupt scholars, they will not gain anything in the imperial examination. In fact, Zhengdao Academy is a hymn, and there is even a portrait of Lord Liu in their school!"

Hearing the two words of the portrait, Zhu Di suddenly took a breath and his face changed.

He suddenly looked at Liu Chun and found that the corners of Liu Chun's mouth were raised and sneered slightly. It was obvious that Liu Chun did not feel any surprise. Now, under the banner of science, there are too many people who claim to be Liu Chun's disciples. There are a few that are real and a few are fake, so it's hard to say.

Zhu Di also thought of what Liu Chun said just now, and he pondered: "Is this a farce arranged by someone?"

"I'm afraid it's not as simple as a farce." Liu Chun asked Yang Hao, "Have you checked the identities of those who have stood up stone statues and impacted the Confucian Temple? Do they have anything to do with Zhengdao Academy?"

"If you want to know, Xiaguan only knows that these people are from Suzhou, and the location is the same as Zhengdao Academy. As for more, they don't know."

"Check!" Zhu Di squeezed out a word from his teeth. His Majesty the Emperor was already angry. When the stone statue came out, almost everyone thought that it was Liu Chun's subordinates who were arrogant and did not know that the sky was high and the earth was rich.

But if it has nothing to do with Liu Chun from beginning to end, it is a play that someone deliberately created, wouldn’t it have made the entire Ming Dynasty?

You are shameless, where can I put my face?

"Check it out for me!" Zhu Di roared and roared!
