Chapter 401 There is no return

The lobby of the “County Public Party”.

Ru Taisu framed the calligraphy and paintings given by Liu Bowen to Zhu Zhen and hung them on the wall of the main seat.

Yang Xun, who was dressed like a mountain, had a rare solemn expression on his face.

"Worry about the world first and worry about it, and then enjoy the world first and enjoy about it."

This calligraphy and painting was written by Liu Bowen himself to Zhu Zhen. It was considered that the elders had high expectations for the younger generation. They were eager and vigorous. It can be seen that Liu Bowen himself was also a person with a lot of grievances in his heart.

With just a short line of words, Yang Xun felt that he had found an amazing team, especially following Zhu Zhen’s later actions, which were very different from what he had done in the inspection before.

Zhu Zhen put his sleeves on the side and smiled faintly: "Why, are you feeling it?"

Yang Xun exclaimed: "It turns out that there are many people in this world who may not be living for themselves. It is really someone who is following the true meaning of life. Is this the Tao?"

Zhu Zhen laughed and said, "We are not that elegant yet. There may be people in this world who sacrifice themselves for others, but it may not be me.

If a person who is not necessarily selfish, he cannot do any good deeds."

"I hope to hear the details."

Yang Xun said seriously.

"Are you better an official who is fair and selfless, and who can't do anything good without all your heart and will make the people better? Or is it better if an official who is full of selfishness but does everything properly in order to satisfy his own selfishness?"

"My uncle, what you said is not necessarily appropriate. How can a fair and selfless person not do anything with all his heart?

How can a person with a lot of selfishness do good deeds?”

Before Yang Xun could speak, Ru Taisu immediately stood up to blame him.

In his opinion, Yang Xun is the kind of person that Boye said, so he must stand up and blame him immediately. He must not let his uncle go so far as to develop, but should try his best to influence and make Yang Xun regret it.

Zhu Zhen glanced at Ru Taisu and smiled, but was unwilling to argue, "Ru Taisu, you are too straightforward, some things are much more complicated than you think.

Compared to this, you are not as good as a big man.”

Ru Taisu wanted to argue a few more words. A red dress floated by at the door, and a tall and handsome woman ran in, pulled Zhu Zhen's sleeve and said, "You said you want to treat me to seafood."

The little girl grew up overseas since she was a child. Perhaps because her elders neglected to discipline her, she did not have the concept of ethics that she should have since the Song Dynasty. She did not shy away from it.

The warm and smooth feeling made Zhu Zhen feel that Mr. Lu Xun had been despised for thousands of years.

"Some people will think of their wrists when they touch their hands, and then their bodies..." Zhu Zhen forced himself to gather his desires and said warmly: "It's not today. A great scholar is coming soon. I need a banquet to host a banquet."

Ru Taisu, who was about to argue with Zhu Zhen, turned her eyes and thought that the upper beam was not straight and the lower beam was crooked.

Before I could fire at Yang Xun, my uncle fell first.

Yang Xun looked at Ru Taisu's depressed appearance and couldn't help but smile.

At the same time, I admire Bo Ye's shamelessness. Hu Jingxue, the little girl, didn't have much scheming at all, and Bo Ye was a man with a deep routine.

Who would have thought that Boye, who has a very noble status and status, would also cook all kinds of exquisite and delicious meals?

The little girl's arrogant head had long fallen. She chased Zhu Zhen to eat delicious food every day, but she was taken advantage of by Master intentionally or unintentionally.

I just don’t know what the leader of the Annan Hu family will react after they find out?

A clever plan to help the world, and you will lose money after losing your daughter?

When Hu Jingxue heard this, she was not very happy. She had seen a lot of experience here during this period and knew that officials like Zhu Zhen should often attend meaningless banquets.

A group of people stumbled for a long time, but they couldn't say anything.

He doesn't like it very much, but the various meals Zhu Zhen cooked for himself are so delicious.

Especially the clay pot rice, Buddha jumps over the wall is simply a delicious food on earth.

Every time I finish eating, I have to practice martial arts for a long time before I can digest the food.

Recently, the burden on my chest has become even more cumbersome.

Zhu Zhen didn't know the contempt in Ru Taisu's heart, and the expression that I understood you in Yang Xun's eyes. If he knew, he would definitely complain that he was wronged.

Is Zhu Zhen the kind of despicable person?

It's just that this girl always runs to her room and wants to make something delicious to deal with her.

Today, Zhu Zhen is indeed going to welcome a distinguished guest.

Zhang Xu, Minister of the Ministry of Revenue in the Yuan Dynasty.

Seeing that the country was becoming increasingly corrupt and could not think of a better way to resolve the turmoil in the country, the Yuan court used an extremely bad way to seek comfort.

The first stop that the court chose for Zhang Xu was Zhu Zhen, who made a prosperous debut in Huai'an.

Of course, Zhang Xu's status in history is definitely not as good as the one who is engaged in calligraphy, but he is a very influential scholar in the world.

The brainless Emperor Shun actually sent him as an envoy to recruit local heroes, which made Zhu Zhen feel like he was a meat bun.

Zhang Xu was appointed as the Minister of Revenue. He has great influence in the literary world and government affairs. The most rare thing is that this person has never done anything bad in the officialdom and has a high prestige among the people.

The old man was over 50 years old, with half-white hair and wearing a regular dress. He jumped off the bow of the boat and stepped onto the pier. He still walked solidly and energeticly. He pushed away Zhu Zhen's hand that was about to be attached to him, and said with a smile: "Although I am old, I am not yet at the point of needing support, so I should lead the way."

Zhu Zhen was not embarrassed, and said with a smile: "You are old and still running for the people of the world. The boy feels respectful, so he did this."

Zhang Xu sneered: "You will respect me, the minister who serves Dayuan. Could it be that my uncle is joking about me?"

Zhu Zhen stared and said, "How is that possible?

The Yuan court has been in charge of the Central Plains for a hundred years, and it is about to end. In fact, how many sins do they have? Why don’t they respect the elders because they are not ministers in the same dynasty?”

Zhang Xu pointed at Zhu Zhen with his finger, and was extremely speechless.

Who doesn't know that Zhu Zhen is the subordinate of the die-hard Zhu Yuanzhang. They expel the Tartars and restore China every day. They shouted the loudest, but they ended up doing this with themselves.

Young man, you are hypocritical.

Walking along the pier across the river, just as he rammed over the long street that was swept up on the bluestone slab, Zhang Xu walked while watching the surroundings with great interest.

At this time, the entire Huai'an had transported a large amount of materials and the civilians began to implement a new round of labor-for-relief, which was actually birds of a feather with Tutuo's plan to build the Yellow River.

However, Zhu Zhen has a very excellent logistics official named Fang Keqin. This big man is so obsessed with money and grain that the people are not hungry now.

Zhang Xu nodded and said with a smile: "There are indeed many heroes in the South. It is a wrong decision for the court to not value Nanchen."

Zhu Zhen chuckled, but said nothing.

At noon, a banquet was held at the county government to entertain Zhang Xu.

As for the officials accompanying him, they were not treated so well, and they didn't even have the chance to get off the boat.

I had to buy food at a price of ten times the market price, but I was very happy that the people nearby were afraid of it.

"To be honest, Lord Zhang, you have already investigated your talents and abilities clearly and built a school for you. You came to me, but you can't leave."

After three rounds of drinking, before Zhang Xu could advise him, Zhu Zhen had already begun his shameless behavior.

Zhang Xu was a man of a good spirit and was not afraid of Zhu Zhen's trick. He immediately sneered: "I am the Minister of Revenue of the Yuan Dynasty. Not to mention whether I can look up to the position of a teacher in your province. I am the identity of the Yuan Dynasty, my people and your subordinates, can I accept it?

If I teach, aren’t you afraid of teaching Dayuan a bunch of loyal ministers and righteous people?

But then again, your kid's style of conduct is not like Zhu Yuanzhang who has great ambitions and intends to subvert the court. As long as you are willing to surrender to the Yuan Dynasty, I can not only stay here, but even the identity of a prince, the court can give you."

Sure enough, this old guy can't forget his job.

Zhu Zhen said embarrassedly: "Look at what you said, the Yuan court has been exhausted. What is the use of you even if you are a loyal minister and righteous person in the teaching department?

Don’t they still have to be loyal to the new court?

And you may not know that not long after you got on the boat, I sent someone to do publicity, saying that you fell in love with this place and wanted to preach here.

As for what you said to be a prince for Beiyuan, it is not a boy. Emperor Yuan’s current power may not be as great as me. What is the use of him to be my prince.”

Zhang Xu's eyes were bulging, and his beard was trembling with anger! In his opinion, Dayuan was something that could be paid, but it was worthless in this kid's mouth.

Moreover, this guy has sent someone to promote that he wants to surrender to them, and that he wants to ruin his own rhythm.

Zhang Xu wanted to slap Zhu Zhen on the spot.

Isn’t this shameless?

What do you say about respecting your talents is nothing more than using your influence in the court to make more Yuan people surrender to him?

You should know that in terms of influence, Liu Bowen, a scholar who once served as an official in the court, is just a scum compared to himself.

Zhang Xu himself felt that the imperial court sent him to serve as an envoy was an act of extravagance. Now, as soon as this kid spoke, he wanted to keep himself, which made him feel like he had no return. He felt a little cold at the moment.
