Chapter 8 Forbearance
Zhu Hongsan stood up and said in a sharp voice: "I wonder how the great master knew that I read the word?"
"Someone reported it. In the morning, you wrote an agreement and coerced Ma Jingyuan to sign it. This matter is true."
"Report to the great master, that's exactly what it is."
When I heard me admit it, my mother looked gray. The royal family was not allowed to learn calligraphy. Emperor Yongle made the rule. He succeeded in the crisis and was afraid that his brother would follow suit in the future. The first thing he did when he went to the stage was to attack his brothers.
The guards of the vassal kings began to be reduced. During the Zhengde period, King Anhua and King Ning rebelled, which further increased the state's management of the royal family. It stipulated that no calligraphy should be practiced, no interactions with Juren, no banquets should be held, and no alcohol should be allowed. Although the royal family is now secretly asking for advice and learning culture at home, it is difficult to say that the people will not procure officials without procuring them, and it is hard to say that they will be taken to the table.
The emperor was not bad to his relatives. He was basically on the side of the royal family in any arrogant and domineering matters, but he would never give up easily when it was involved in fundamental interests. Back then, the Liao King Zhu Xianjie forced the robbery of the people and the land, but the emperor just issued an order to denounce him.
But the King of Liao didn't know that the nerve was wrong and wrote the word "unfair" on the flagpole in the mansion, which was said by Zhang Juzheng as a revolt. The emperor immediately issued an order, saying that the King of Liao was deposed and imprisoned in Fengyang until his death. Therefore, the royal family could indulge in other aspects, but in terms of major issues, it would rather kill a thousand people by mistake than let one go.
Zhu Hongsan didn't care about my mother's fear and knew that this was the first crisis that he had traveled through time. If he didn't solve it, he would go to Fengyang until the Ming Dynasty was destroyed and he would revive the Ming Dynasty.
County Magistrate He heard that I admitted this matter and said, "Very good. Since you have accepted this matter, I will write the Ministry of Rites. Now I will temporarily detain you and wait until the decree is here to make a decision."
Zhu Hongsan said: "Grandmaster, the murderer can defend himself. Listen to me if I tell you the reason for me."
"Well, okay, I'll hear what you said."
Hearing County Magistrate He said this, I took out the IOU from my arms and presented it with both hands: "Grandmaster, this is the IOU written by the kid. It's just the children's playfulness. The words I know were also learned secretly in the middle school in the city, and no one taught me."
County Magistrate He frowned at the IOU I wrote. He wrote more than a dozen Chinese characters with different thicknesses and few strokes on it. (Zhu Hongsan wrote simplified Chinese characters, and he also did not know how to use brushes. In addition, the current grammar is different from that of the Ming Dynasty, so of course it is too ugly and ugly).
County Magistrate He asked, "Lieutenant Fengguo, tell me what happened at that time."
After Zhu Hongsan talked in detail, County Magistrate He asked again: "Why do you say that the small river belongs to your family?"
Zhu Hongsan said: "Of course yes, I am a clan and the whole world belongs to our Zhu family. Isn't that right?"
This sentence made County Magistrate He very badly. Everyone knew that what Zhu Hongsan said was wrong, but no one dared to say it in person, because in terms of legal principles, the whole world belongs to the Zhu family, although they have nothing to do with Zhu Hongsan.
Zhu Hongsan saw that County Magistrate He didn't say anything, and knew that he was right. His identity was quite effective at critical moments. Zhu Hongsan continued: "He, Ma Jingyuan, said that our Zhu family has no good things. What should I do if the county magistrate? Is it wrong to beat him?"
Zhu Hongsan's words were a bit heartbroken. This sentence made it difficult for County Magistrate He to answer. It was wrong to protect the Ma family. There were Jinyiwei in the hall and reported every word and action to the emperor. He had offended Wei Zhongxian because of the eunuch party's problems and demoted from the fifth-rank department of the Ministry of Revenue to the seventh-rank county magistrate. If this matter is not handled well, the eunuch party will make him doomed.
But it is not good not to cover up with the Ma family. Ma Guoan is the same year as Ma Mingyuan is his son-in-law, which is difficult.
When I was in a dilemma, I heard the child below say that the matter between Ma Jingyuan and I was just a play between the children. We should not be true. Please forgive Ma Jingyuan's nonsense."
County Magistrate He said happily: "As long as you know your own interests, it's easy to do."
Snake, County Magistrate He slapped the wood and said, "Someone reported that Lieutenant Zhu Hongsan of Fengguo was literate and was investigated by the official. It was purely false accusation. The Lieutenant of Fengguo wrote lack of pens and strokes, and the words were not meaningful. It was not like someone taught and learned. It was his work of having fun and making trouble. Now he instructed his mother to take him home to strictly discipline him." County Magistrate He looked at the Jinyiwei sitting next to him and continued, "If there is no objection, the case will be closed and the court will be withdrawn."
Zhu Hongsan was taken home by my mother. Whether it was fried pork with bamboo shoots or fried pork, we won’t mention it for now.
After saying that County Magistrate He retreated to the second hall, Ma Mingyuan, who was sitting in the second hall, stood up and said respectfully: "My father-in-law."
County Magistrate He said with a cold face: "Hmph, you have heard it. If the child hadn't been tactful today, I would probably not have been able to get out of Taiwan. Don't bother me in this way in the future."
Ma Mingyuan replied respectfully: "Yes, my father-in-law."
County Magistrate He loved this son-in-law very much. He felt that what he said just now might be a bit heavy, and he slowed down his expression and said, "Mingyuan. Study is the most important thing. Don't worry about this in the future. Focus on studying. Your father came to me the day before yesterday. I will tell me next year, will you go to take the imperial examination for the juren exam?"
"Yes, my father-in-law, I will marry you in a grand manner after the exam."
"Well, okay, I'm tired, you go home."
Ma Mingyuan came out of the county government and got on his own carriage. He thought on the carriage: Zhu Hongsan is really an extraordinary child, only five or six years old but so courageous. If he hadn't been entrusted by his sister this time, he wouldn't have been to this muddy water, and he almost even took his father-in-law.
Now Wei Yi is in great power, and his uncle and father-in-law were demoted collectively, and only his elder brother was spared by his uncle's disciple. It seems that he should be more low-key in the future. Just as the carriage stopped, the coachman outside said, "Second Master, a child said he wanted to see you."
Ma Mingyuan lifted the curtain and saw that Zhu Hongsan was standing next to the car and was stunned.
Zhu Hongsan said, "Second Young Master, can you say a few words to you?"
Ma Mingyuan thought for a while and said, "Okay, come up."
After seeing Zhu Hongsan get into the car, he said, "Lieutenant Fengguo, is there anything wrong with me?"
Zhu Hongsan smiled and said, "It's nothing. I heard that the second young master is very knowledgeable. I want to ask for a story."
"Okay, let's hear it."
Zhu Hongsan said, "I wonder if the second young master has heard of the story of the eunuch Liu Jin?"
"Oh? What story?"
"I wonder why Liu Jin was cut alive for why?"
Ma Mingyuan, who is well-read in poetry and books, certainly knew that Liu Jin was killed by Emperor Zhengde because he found the dragon robe and jade seal at home.
Ma Mingyuan narrowed his eyes and said, "What does Lieutenant Fengguo mean? Is he threatening our Ma family?"
"Of course not. I am just an idle royal family. I'm just a day and wait for death. Of course, I can't compete with Maocai Gong. You are Wenquxing and will be the prime minister in the future. I will compete with you and I will be a pool of dog shit. Can your new shoes step on my dog shit? Ling Mei and Lingdi are just kids' nonsense. I shouldn't take Maocai Gong to heart?"
Of course, Ma Mingyuan heard Zhu Hongsan's meaning. He was a royal family. As long as he did not make mistakes, the Ming Dynasty law could not control him. He was different. He had a long future and could not step on him in new shoes. In addition, his uncle was the head of the county, so it was really hard to explain if he really wanted to bury prohibited items in his backyard. In addition, there were too many enemies in the court, and there were not people who helped him in time. I believe there must be a lot of shit.
After Ma Mingyuan figured it out, he said, "Lieutenant Fengguo is young and brave, and he will become a great man in the future."
"Damn, what great power is the royal family? Are you scolding me for banning it sooner." Zhu Hongsan cursed in his heart, but said, "I am just a royal family and wait for death, but Maocai will definitely be a pillar of the country like Wang Anshi and Zhang Juzheng in the future."
"This little bastard said that I am the same as Wang Anshi and Zhang Juzheng. This means that I will not die well in the future. Didn't you say that you had never read a book in the classroom just now? How did you know Wang Anshi?" Ma Mingyuan felt hatred in his heart.
Seeing that everything he should say was said, Zhu Hongsan should leave, and said, "Since the second young master is willing to let go, thank you, and is about to leave the city. If it's okay, I'll get off the car."
Ma Mingyuan knocked on the carriage and asked the driver to stop. He said to Zhu Hongsan: "Okay, Lieutenant Fengguo, please get out of the car. If you have time, you can go to the humble house to find me. I really like chatting with the Lieutenant."
Zhu Hongsan thought: "Chain with you? Don't sell me." But he said, "Okay, I'll go if I have the chance." After that, he got out of the car and left.
Ma Mingyuan watched Zhu Hongsan walk away and thought to himself: "This child is extraordinary. If you don't look at his age, what he said just now may not be able to say even adults. Could it be that genius is born? Hey, I was still busy with things when I was five years old. I really hope to see how this child can develop in the future." Ma Mingyuan forgot that he was only fifteen years old, saying that he was a genius, and he was also a monster in the eyes of others.
Zhu Hongsan was wandering on the street. He was indeed a little unconsidered when he did what he did in the morning, but Zhu Hongsan did not regret it. This is his creed. Since he did it thoroughly, he would not have such regret medicine. If the Ma family still kept holding on this time, Zhu Hongsan would really bury some jade seals and dragon robes in the Ma family, or make a stone man to write about the death of Tianqi and the death of the Ming Dynasty. Anyway, such things have often happened in history.
At most, he was imprisoned in Fengyang, but his Ma family was hard to say. Then again, it was imprisoned for more than ten years. Zhu Hongsan remembered that it seemed that the ancestral tombs of Zhu Yuanzhang, both in the seventh year of Chongzhen or the eighth year of Chongzhen were burned by Li Zicheng, and it seemed that the Grand Secretary had died for this matter. At that time, who would be in trouble and in chaos could control a small royal family?
After making up his mind, Zhu Hongsan felt more confident. It is still important to make money at present, and it is absolutely impossible to have no money. Buy ten kilograms of yellow sugar first and go home to experiment. If it succeeds, it is a golden road to make money.
When he arrived at the Li family's grocery store, Boss Li saw Zhu Hongsan entering the door and said, "Sanwazi, why are you here? Do you want to buy something?"
Zhu Hongsan said, "Uncle, I want to buy ten kilograms of yellow sugar."
"Don't you have one? Why do you come here to buy it?"
"Uncle Li, I bought it without telling it from my mother. My mother didn't let me eat candy, and said that my teeth were not good. But I was just greedy."
Zhu Hongsan’s cute expression made Boss Li laugh: “Eating tooth too much candy will cause toothache, and you can’t eat ten kilograms of candy yourself.”
"I have a few friends, and I'll eat with me."
"Okay, ten pounds of yellow sugar cost 300 a lot of money, can you take it yourself?"
"Can Uncle Li help me deliver it to my house? I'll give it to you tomorrow morning, and don't let my mother see it."
"Haha, okay, I'll let my guy deliver it tomorrow morning."
Zhu Hongsan walked around the street and bought a pottery jar, twenty kilograms of lime and twenty kilograms of charcoal in several places. He went to the blacksmith shop to customize an iron cylinder. This cylinder was so expensive that it was so expensive that Zhu Hongsan and three taels of silver were asked for half a meter. After the discussion, they asked them to deliver it to their home tomorrow morning.
