Chapter 122 Self-fouling has a limit
Chapter 122 There is a limit to self-deprecation
After thinking for a long time, Zhu Mai personally went to the Shenzheng Department, a subordinate of the Chang'an Ministry of Justice, to sue Zuo Maodi.
The reason for suing Zuo Maodi was that this person was inappropriate in behavior and was obsessed with good family members.
So Zuo Maodi was taken to Shenxing Department for questioning by the detainees.
Facing the young Guanzheng Office official, Zuo Maodi smiled but said nothing, and accepted Zhu Masan's accusation in full.
Therefore, Zuo Maodi was detained for three days on the charge of misconduct to serve as a warning.
When Huang Zongxi heard that Zuo Maodi was escorted, he came to visit his old friend as soon as possible, but found that his old friend was playing cards with the criminals in the same cell in prison.
Seeing that the old friend came, he handed the card to someone else, removed the grassroots hanging on his ears, and came to the prison door and said, "Why are you here?"
Huang Zongxi said angrily: "I heard that you, Zuo Maodi, were peeping at the good house on the night of the night. Out of curiosity, I came to see if you were replaced by someone."
Zuo Maodi said: "Why don't you think I was wronged?"
Huang Zongxi said: "If it were someone else's family, I would still have such doubts. After I heard that you have been spying on the Zhu family's mansion, I felt that you could do this."
Zuo Maodi smiled and said, "You guys have forgotten Zhu Ming Tianxia, but I still haven't forgotten it."
Huang Zongxi said: "Now it is Zhu who sued you for spying on the widow's mansion. Do you know how bad this reputation is?"
Zuo Maodi smiled and said, "My heart is like the bright moon shining on the river."
Huang Zongxi sighed and said, "Now, people think that you, Zuo Maodi, are peeping at the beautiful widows in the Zhu family's mansion."
Zuo Maodi sighed and said, "In order to survive, we have reached the point of being self-deprecating. Huang Zongxi, do you really have no relationship with Zhu Ming?"
"They live well. What do you do to provoke them? If you continue to be deserted for a few years, and when the world forgets Zhu Ming, these people will be able to survive slowly. If you dive in like this, you are really not helping them, but harming them.
I don't believe that with your Zuo Maodi's eyes, you will not be able to see that the Lantian imperial court's way of dealing with this family is to let them live, but they must forget their former honorable identity. If they cannot pass this level, no matter how tolerant the person is, they will not let them go.
Zhu Ma is doing a good job now.”
Zuo Maodi said: "I am powerless to raise an army to fight against Yun Zhao for the world, and I don't want to disrupt the Ming Dynasty that is about to calm down again. I just want to do my best to repay Zhu Ming's past grace."
Huang Zongxi smiled and said, "You are now a white-robed man. Just two constables can get you to jail. Where do you get the ability to help them?"
Zuo Maodi smiled and said, "This time he was imprisoned is not unfair. A certain family has indeed been spyed on the Zhu family's mansion, and it is only detained for three days. The Guanzheng Department sentencing leniency and does not bear the reputation of being cautious."
Huang Zongxi said: "When you were the county magistrate in Hancheng, you used Lantian's method to manage Hancheng. The people there are still grateful to you..."
Zuo Maodi laughed and said, "What else?"
Huang Zongxi said: "Also, you are already a mature Lantian official. As long as you are willing, I can guarantee you that you can continue to be an official in Lantian and continue to benefit the people."
"What else?"
"And when you are a big enough official in Lantian, have enough voice, and can freely express your opinions at the People's Congress and be recognized by everyone, things will change a lot.
At that time, if your opinion was respected by more than half of the representatives, believe me, even Yun Zhao could not overturn the resolution of the People's Congress."
Zuo Maodi laughed and said, "Imperial power, imperial power, and the power to behead! The People's Congress opposes Yun Zhao's opinion, which will only bring disaster to more people."
Huang Zongxi also laughed and said, "Jie Jue Yao is talking about someone like you."
"Is a dog in some family?"
"What is the difference between Zhu Youjian's atrocities and Jie? They are all kings who have lost their country. What's wrong with saying you are Jie's dog?
Yun Zhao's intention is to be the emperor of the ages. A group of women and children who have lost their country may not be taken seriously by him. I even suspect that except for the Supervision Department still supervising Zhu's mansion, Yun Zhao may have forgotten the existence of this family."
"This is impossible!"
"What is impossible? The most discussed thing in Lantian imperial court is not in Lantian, nor even in the Ming Dynasty. They are already considering how to stop and drive away the Russians infiltration in the north, and the construction of customs clearance on the Strait of Malacca.
Soon, the great living Buddha of Uszang will come to Yushan to preach and uphold the Dharma again. The wise man from *** has come from thousands of miles away and will also revise and read the *** Code in Yushan.
Morigen, the great living Buddha on the grassland, has already promoted that wherever there is a place for shepherds is the Buddha's kingdom, and wherever there is a place for the voice of the Buddha is the residence of the Chinese.
Yun Zhao now also proposed the idea of Chinese people. He proposed that the Han people are the eldest sons of China and the other tribes are other children of China. As long as the person who agrees with this concept is me Chinese and I am the Ming Dynasty.
Then they will enjoy the protection of the Ming Dynasty's laws and the protection of the Ming army... Everyone lives in a big family in love.
Brother Zhong and I, what are the few women and children of Zhu Ming in front of this big world?
Brother Zhong and I, this is the great world where the sun and the moon shine brightly, shining across the bright light. To truly realize this great world, we all need to make enough efforts. You are such a person who is ready to give up your life for a few women and children. How confused!”
In Lantian, there is naturally no good food to eat. Each person has three huge millet buns every day, and the chefs who make these buns do not make them well. Sometimes they will find bugs or leaves in them, even rat shit is not uncommon.
Since Huang Zongxi left, Zuo Maodi has not played any cards anymore. Although he likes this kind of game very much, after listening to Huang Zongxi's explanation, this thing is not that fun.
Zuo Maodi, who was eating steamed buns, spit out a complete leaf from his mouth and continued to chew on the steamed buns. At this moment, a terrifying storm was blew in his mind.
After great hardships, the Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty drove away the rulers of the Mongol Yuan and restored the Han people to a bright blue sky...
Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty fought for a lifetime and drove the Mongol Yuan to Mobei, and did not dare to go south to herd his horse...
The eunuch of Sanbao led a Haohao fleet to the West several times to declare the prestige of the Ming Dynasty. For a time, all nations came to pay tribute, and no one would not worship him...
The next Ming Dynasty should have taken a more brilliant tomorrow... Unfortunately, everything came to an abrupt end.
Whether it is Wang Yangming or Zhang Juzheng, although they are all heroes of their lifetime, their hard work can only make the Ming Dynasty appear in a short period of light, and then they will eventually be swallowed up by the darkness.
Zuo Maodi didn't know where the problems of the Ming Dynasty were. He had thought about correcting them. He had written countless times to the emperor and said that the imperial court was ill. However, he wrote the letters with hope again and again and again, and was scolded again and again...
Zuo Maodi found his heartbeat pounding. This feeling was the first time he wrote a book after he served as a student, which made his blood rush and unable to suppress himself.
"Let me out!"
Zuo Maodi threw away the yellow rice buns on his hands, and shook the railings of the prison desperately and shouted loudly to the outside.
A bucket of cold water poured towards him, making him wet.
A criminal who was gnawing yellow buns was also affected and said helplessly to Zuo Maodi: "Old Zuo, calm down for a while. You have only been two days and you will have one day to go out.
If it is uncomfortable, we will play cards and bear it. Although the yellow buns here are unpalatable, they are full.
Even if you miss the widow opposite your house, you will endure it for another day. Then I will teach you a way to peep out from Yushan Academy, so that you can peek at it."
Zuo Maodi, who was wet and still holding the railing, turned his head and looked at the shameless person with difficulty and said, "What has been passed on from Yushan Academy?"
When the criminal saw that Zuo Maodi, a scholar, seemed to be interested, he put down the yellow bun and said, "You can see clearly with a mirror or several mirrors."
Zuo Maodi gritted his teeth and said, "What did you do again?"
The culprit laughed and said, "Like you, you are all good brothers who can't help but see beautiful women."
Zuo Maodi's body trembled, and his eyes glanced at the people who had lived in the same cell for two days, and said in a trembling voice: "All of them?"
The criminal said in surprise: "If it wasn't for the one who came in for a crime, wouldn't it be beaten to death? But to be honest, there are really not many scholars like you who come in.
When everyone goes out, they will take care of each other and first agree that anyone who can enter Mingyue Tower must call me!"
"The guards of Mingyue Tower are very powerful and will break your legs!" Another criminal whispered. Seeing his lame movement, he should have been beaten hard by Mingyue Tower's guards.
Zuo Maodi tried hard to calm himself down. He had a bright moon in his heart. Although he didn't care about the temporary misunderstanding, his pride as a senior scholar made him unable to continue to be in a dilemma with these shameless people.
So, he held the railing with both hands again and shouted loudly: "I surrender myself, I surrender myself, I have killed someone..."
This time, the jailers did not splash him with water, but put him in shackles, and four jailers escorted him directly to the heavily guarded prison cell.
This scene made several indecent criminals stunned.
Until Zuo Maodi was escorted away, the criminal who claimed to have learned how to peep in Yushan Academy murmured to himself: "This is the role model of our generation. If you don't see a woman for a day, you'd rather die!"
The other criminals also gave thumbs up and cheered Zuo Maodi.
When Pei Zhong reported to Yun Zhao about Zuo Maodi's tragic incident, Yun Zhao was meeting Xu Wuxiang.
The capital has been completely taken down, and an experienced important official should be sent to take charge.
After choosing, Xu Wu wanted to be the best, but Xu Wu wanted to fail to challenge the position of Prime Minister, and he also wanted to find a more important position to prove that he was no worse than Zhang Guozhu. Therefore, he hurriedly handed over the official duties in Hanzhong and returned to Lantian.
"The people in the capital are now panic. At this time, a former Ming official needs to be my deputy. I think this Zuo Maodi is very suitable."
Yun Zhao smiled and said, "This person is one of the few officials Zhu Ming who can be used directly. He has enough ability. I agree with your suggestions. However, since you want to use this person, his ideological education work should also fall on you."
Xu Wu wanted to shake his head and said, "I have a bright future. I can't bet on my reputation for an irrelevant person. Didn't I say that Huang Zongxi is willing to protect him?
