"Every sentence is true..."

Zhu Youxiao repeated the sentence, his face moved, raised his hand and picked up the book handed over by Wang Chaofu, took a look, and said lightly:

"Yu Tai Xin Yong..."

"I haven't read this book."

"Your Majesty, this is a collection of poems by Xu Ling of the Liang Dynasty. The selected poems are all works of love between men and women."

Wang Chaofu quickly added to avoid the emperor's embarrassment.

Zhu Youxiao turned his head to look at him and chuckled:

"You are smart, how can you know so much?"

"When I go back to Your Majesty, before I entered the Chief Lijian, I received blessing from Emperor Wanli of the Great Learning Office. I went to the Nei Study Room for a few days and learned about the excellent poetry works of all dynasties."

After Wang Chaofu finished speaking, Zhu Youxiao smiled:

"That's right, not everyone can go to the Secretariat like Wei Zhongxian, and then get my order to go to the Nei Study to make up for the lessons."

Wang Chaofu's face was a bit complicated and he could only laugh at him, but he really couldn't continue.

"Tian Ergeng, what does it mean to bring this book back to me?"

Zhu Youxiao flipped through it casually. While asking this, he seemed to focus on the content of the book, which also made Tian Ergeng feel a little relaxed.

He said:

"Reply to Your Majesty, this book is contrary to women's virtues. If ordinary women read too much, I am afraid they don't understand the three obediences and four virtues and women's training, and women's warnings."

"Zhang Yu, the second wife of Mr. Funing, almost couldn't put down the book. When I arrived at the mansion, I looked through it page by page."

Maybe it was because he thought that it was too naive and exaggerated to talk about the Liang Dynasty more than a thousand years ago in front of the surrounding groups of civil and military ministers, so Tian Ergeng did not say it out loud.

“That’s true.”

Zhu Youxiao was flipping through the book and browsing the general content.

Most of this collection of poems are filled with pornographic jokes, and there are also the accusations of the injustice and changes of her marriage by an ancient woman more than a thousand years ago.

How could Zhang Yu, a marquis’ wife, like reading such books?

Seeing that Emperor Tianqi agreed slightly to this statement, Tian Ergeng breathed a sigh of relief, his back was already wet with sweat. After all, it was not an easy task to speak in front of the emperor.

"Report to Your Majesty."

Among the ministers who followed, some people had long been dissatisfied with Tian Ergeng's comments on this classic poem. As soon as Zhu Youxiao finished speaking, Zuo Yude and Changqi left the list and said righteously:

"I think Governor Tian's words are inappropriate!"

Upon hearing this, Tian Ergeng, who was leaning over on the ground, subconsciously turned around and glared fiercely, seeing who was singing opposite him.

Although Zuo Yude made no achievements in his daily life, he had his own unique insights and principles in literature. He talked freely without fear.

"The "Yu Tai Xin Yong" is a collection of love poems, and it is not as good as those temple poems that select praises merits."

"However, this book is selected for each chapter, and all the language is clear, but those who have abandoned profound and profound texts are recorded as nursery rhymes from the Han Dynasty and nursery rhymes from Emperor Hui of Jin, etc., all belong to this category."

"Like the ancient poem "Going up the mountain to pick the mugwort", "Song of Yue people", "Ranning and Alone Bamboo", and..."

Seeing that he was about to continue talking, Zhu Youxiao frowned slightly and interrupted:

"Okay, I know."

"Zuo Yude, you are a Jinshi in the 41st year of Wanli. You are a Shujishi from the Hanlin Academy for the first time and are appointed as a prosecutor. I remember correctly, right?"

Zhuo Changqi nodded respectfully and said nothing.

"To this day, the second year of Tianqi, you have been an official for almost ten years. Why is it just a Zuo Yude?" Zhu Youxiao smiled:

"You have no suggestions on weekdays. When you come to this kind of collection of writings and poetry, you will jump out and discuss it in front of me."

"It's a pity."

Hearing the sarcastic words that Emperor Tianqi said clearly, Miao Changqi felt ashamed and retreated, and Tian Ergeng also sneered in his heart.

In fact, after Wei Zhongxian's purge, the radical Donglinji, who dared to jump out and sing against the tune, was already dead.

The rest are just two kinds of people.

First, those civil officials who were called eunuchs by scholars and officials all over the world, were of many real talents and knowledgeable people. The biggest feature was that they listened to their own words as emperor.

Xiong Tingbi and Wei Zhongxian had a bad relationship, because Wei Zhongxian said a few words for him and was also called a eunuch.

Fortunately, I, the emperor, believed it deeply.

There are also some capable military generals who want to make a name for themselves. They have to rely on the "magic powers" of the eunuch party to reach the heavenly hearing, to capture their own magical eyes, and to display their talents.

This group of people was basically classified as the so-called eunuchs.

The second is a gentleman like Miao Changqi, who has been called a child prodigy since childhood. The so-called Shilin Daxian, who is famous all over the world, belongs to the moderate Donglin who is surrounded by Han Dong, the chief minister of the cabinet.

In fact, in the past two years, in addition to party disputes and attacks, these "Shilin sages" have done nothing in military, national and political affairs.

But being a small local official, such as a county magistrate, a censor, or the like, asked them to manage people's livelihood and impeachment and corrections, they can basically be organized and much more useful than the eunuch party.

Seeing that Miao Changqi retreated due to difficulties, Zhu Youxiao did not intend to kill others without dealing with it. He just used it as a joke and threw the book aside and said:

"This book is indeed a bit contrary to female virtue, but I think what Zuo Yude said just now is reasonable. Let's release the second wife of Funing Hou Mansion."

"As for this book, it is forbidden to be introduced to the palace, and let the rest go."

The implication is that Zhu Youxiao did not intend to restrict the spread of such books among the people, and even the neighborhood discussions, but only explicitly prohibited the introduction to the palace.

Tian Ergeng looked surprised and opened his mouth wide:

"His Majesty--"

Zhu Youxiao narrowed his eyes slightly and asked:

"Is it not clear enough?"

"I obey the order!"

Tian Ergeng was a little disappointed, but he was still shocked and kowtowed quickly.

After hearing this, Miao Changqi, who was regretting in the crowd, was also puzzled and relieved. It seemed that the emperor was still very clear about right and wrong in some matters.

That's good, that's good...

Next, Zhu Youxiao picked up the account book delivered by Tian Ergeng.

Naturally, Tian Ergeng could not carry the messy account book of Funing Hou Mansion directly to Emperor Tianqi for him to read. If he really wanted to do this, he would probably have no chance in the future.

As for promotion as a commander, don’t even think about it.

I can't do this, so what else can the emperor expect you to do?

The emperor has always been surrounded by his side. Although Cui Yingyuan and Sun Yunhe are juniors in the Fufu Department, they are all clever and good at doing things.

There may be only one opportunity, and Tian Ergeng cannot worry about it.

Therefore, the account book that Zhu Youxiao got was carefully compiled by the Fushu Department of the Nanzhili General. After a glance, the account books of various industries in Funing Houfu were clearly visible.

"Yeah, not bad."

Zhu Youxiao looked around and found that it was Yu Yulunyin. He gave Tian Ergeng a shot of cardiotonic, allowing the latter to breathe gently, and a stone in his heart fell to the ground.

"Nine gardens, three Nanjing city, one in Suzhou, Yangzhou, Penglai, Changzhou, Songjiang and Chongming Island, each with a very large scale."

"Wuning Hou Mansion was built according to the Prince's Mansion of the Capital. Later, there was Wanbo Garden. The second wife Zhang Yu's small name is 'Wanbo', and the regulations are comparable to those of Nanjing Royal Gardens."

After reading this, Zhu Youxiao's voice gradually became colder and said:

"What you remember above is true. If you dare to make a false word, I will definitely forgive you."

"Go back to Your Majesty, every sentence is true!"

Tian Ergeng shouted: "In addition to the nine gardens, the industries of Funing Houfu are all covered in southern Zhili, and all grain, rice and cloth are involved."

"I suspect that Funing Hou embezzled and embezzled disaster relief funds and misappropriated the funds for disaster relief. I have ordered the Supervisory Office to seize three gardens including Wanbo Garden located in Nanjing City."

"Please make a decision! I will follow the imperial edict!"
