"ah!"

"ah!"

"ah!"

The water and fire stick wrapped in iron sheet hit Mr. Mei directly on the back, making Mr. Mei scream.

Mr. Mei didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, he was beaten hard by his brother-in-law. He suddenly knew that the young man who was passing through the screen was not an ordinary person, so he could only cry and shout: "This young man, the villain knows that he is wrong! Please let my brother-in-law spare my life! The villain kowtows you, the villain confesses to you! Woo woo! I don't want to die!"

"Beat to death, beat to death directly!"

Jiao Fang shouted directly. He hated his beloved concubine brother very much now and he didn't have to cause trouble for him.

Jiao Fang knew that the Jiao family could have it now was given by His Majesty the emperor in front of him, so he was worried that Zhu Houzhao would take his anger on his Jiao family and let the wealth of his Jiao family disappear overnight. Therefore, he was even more excited than Zhu Houzhao's performance.

At this time, the crying of Mr. Mei was gone outside.

Then, Jiao Fang's son Jiao Yang walked in and bowed to Zhu Houzhao, Jiao Fang and others: "Young master, uncle, father, uncle, ninth uncle have been beaten to death!"

Jiao Fang only looked at Zhu Houzhao: "Young Master, the crazy and perverse people have been eliminated. Do you think what to do next?"

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but look up at Jiao Fang, and saw that Jiao Fang's forehead was already sweating, and his hands were shaking as if he had Parkinson's disease: he couldn't help but smile slightly for a moment, thinking that he didn't seem to say that he was very angry, and Jiao Fang was so scared, which shows that he, the emperor, is still a little deterrent. Of course, maybe this person is like this. The richer he is, the more timid he is, the more afraid he will lose the opportunity to continue to be rich because of offending the powerful.

Just like in Dream of Red Mansions, when the Jia family officials were summoned in the palace, the entire Jia family was frightened and the whole family was in turmoil.

Now, Jiao Fang must have the same mentality, and is deeply afraid that the emperor will vent his anger on his Jiao family because of this, so he is so cowardly and worried.

But in fact, Zhu Houzhao came here today, and did not want to kill people, nor did he want to make trouble for the entire Haitian Shengyuan people who knew that he was a person like Jiao Fang who was afraid of even the prime minister of the cabinet when he saw it. Sooner or later, people would know that he was the emperor.

After all, Zhu Houzhao could guess that even the former cabinet ministers would come here, and maybe there were other dukes, marquis, and ministers who came here to freely.

So, Zhu Houzhao said to Jiao Fang, who was still trembling on the side, "Forget it, you have already put him on the ground, what else can I say, but do you know that you are taking human life? He is your brother-in-law. Even if he is not your brother-in-law, you should hand him over to the Guangdong Censor, whether he is a death or a disciple. It is a court sentenced to the court. Tell me, you have also been the chief minister, why do you still have the problem of clan families, and use lynching in front of me. Where do you place the imperial court?

Jiao Fang was shocked. He thought of beating his beloved concubine brother to calm down the anger of Emperor Zhu Houzhao. He did not expect that he had made a huge mistake and hurriedly crawled on the ground: "Old minister, old minister, old minister is guilty, old minister is stupid, he was angry because his king and father were humiliated, and forgot the rules for a while. Please punish Your Majesty!"

"It's rare that you are loyal, sit down first. The Censorate and the Ministry of Justice will deal with this matter. I'm too lazy to ask about it." After Zhu Houzhao said, Jiao Fang sat tremblingly on the lower head. On this side, Zhang Heling hurriedly asked the attendant to make a cup of tea for Jiao Fang.

Jiao Fang didn't dare to drink or speak, and she was still a little nervous.

Zhu Houzhao didn't say anything. The whole room was very quiet, and only all kinds of moans came from outside, making people think a lot.

"That seems to be Huang Shilang, Xiangcheng uncle Li Zhang is also here, and Chang Shaoqing, uncle, there are many powerful people in your Shengyuan," Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but say.

"Your Majesty laughed. Ordinary people can't afford to play or get in," Zhang Heling replied truthfully.

"Hmph, a few days ago, the old Shangshu Han Wen, who had retired, wrote a memorial to me, saying that it is as arrogant and extravagant as the family of Dukes and Dukes and Officials today, it is ten times more arrogant and extravagant than in the past. It spends money like earth, pursues pleasure, does not study or pursues achievements, only seeks flowers and willows, fights cocks and horses, so it is recommended to correct the rules and regulations, and strictly prohibits public officials from being in love with prostitutes and seeking pleasure. Now it seems that what we, the old minister of Neo-Confucianism, Han Shangshu, is true!"

Zhu Houzhao is indeed worried about this now. With the increasing frequency of foreign trade activities after the opening of the sea, the Ming Dynasty, as a self-sufficiency and highly developed super empire with a high degree of handicrafts and agriculture, will naturally be in a surplus position in trade, which will also lead to the Ming Dynasty's aristocratic class becoming more and more prosperous. However, once these Ming Dynasty aristocratic classes become more and more prosperous, they will only pursue enjoyment more and more, and reduce their enthusiasm for production and investment in industries.

Especially in the future, the issuance of public bonds and even stocks and other financial activities will make it easier for the capital-rich people like the Ming Dynasty to get more wealth, and will make them pursue pleasure more. This will lead to a decrease in the momentum of the Ming Dynasty to develop production.

This is human nature. Once you have a lot of wealth, especially if you can easily obtain a lot of wealth, it will be difficult for people to encourage themselves to improve themselves.

Even the emperor Zhu Houzhao is the same. He often thinks that it is better to be a king with great sensuality and lewdness while the Ming Dynasty is now highly developed. Anyway, a person's life span is only a few decades or a hundred years. Since he has already gained wealth, why bother to work hard for this country and other people in this country? After all, if his life ends in the future, everything will turn into nothingness.

But Zhu Houzhao knew that if he indulged himself in this way, the nobles of his empire would turn from prosperity to decline, and he would live up to his responsibility as the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, Zhu Houzhao did not want these emperors and the bureaucratic capitalists and nobles of the Ming Empire to sink into this because they had obtained countless wealth.

Because of this, he suddenly realized that Neo-Confucianism actually needed to be used. After all, it was necessary to preserve the laws of nature and eliminate human desires. It was also beneficial to the country and country of the Ming Dynasty. It was no wonder that ministers such as Xia Yan and Zhang Cong had Neo-Confucianism as the body and sage as the use of such political concepts.

But what Zhu Houzhao didn't know was that although Neo-Confucianism had the idea of ​​requiring others to restrain themselves and restore etiquette, human desires were not so easy to control.

After Zhu Houzhao suddenly mentioned the memorial of Han Wen, an old minister of Neo-Confucianism, he saw a familiar figure lying on a woman's jade back on the opposite window to make a piston movement. The man was a famous minister of Neo-Confucianism, former Minister of Revenue Han Wen.

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but look at Zhang Heling: "What's going on? Why is Old Shangshu Han here too?"

Seeing that Emperor Zhu Houzhao was terrible, Zhang Heling couldn't say that Old Shangshu Han was a regular visitor here, so he could only smile and said, "Some of the innocent servants here are quite knowledgeable about literature and art, and they were taught by experienced mothers in Yangzhou who were invited by the ministers. Among them, one of them was Yu Ai, who was the confidant of Old Shangshu. They probably just thought that it was hot in Guangdong, so they talked with each other! Old Shangshu Han is a person with good moral character, so he is naturally not ashamed of the affairs of the wind and moon."

"Okay! I'm not a three-year-old child! Stop lying to me with lies. Why do you stick together when talking about things in a broad suit? Let's spread the word "Han Shangshu Han!"

Zhu Houzhao was thinking about whether to revive Korean and correct the extravagant trend in the world, but she didn't expect that even the so-called Neo-Confucian gentleman was a hypocritical person. He couldn't control his third leg and did the work of drinking marrow and sucking dew in this southern country.

For a moment, Han Wen came to Zhu Houzhao with one step and three steps. He stuttered and bowed to Zhu Houzhao: "I have seen Your Majesty, but I don't know that Your Majesty has come in person. I have missed the opportunity to welcome you. I hope Your Majesty will forgive you!"

"Okay, Old Shangshu, what are you doing in the attic opposite?" Zhu Houzhao asked after saying that.

"Report to Your Majesty, I and Brother Yu are talking about knowledge, and I just talked about classics, history, and collections of classics, history, and literature from poetry, songs and essays," Mr. Han replied.

"Then how talented the brother Yu you mentioned?" Zhu Houzhao asked.

"Your Majesty, I'm not to hide it. This Yu brother is very knowledgeable. She has her own unique insights in the study of Song history!" Mr. Han replied.

"Go and tell me the jade brother that Old Shangshu Han said. I want to see how talented she is!" Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but laughed in anger.

For a moment.

Then there was a loose bun, her clothes were half open, her strapless breasts were hung on her shoulders on her shoulders, and a trace of snow-white on the other side was exposed. She was weaker than Xizi and Diao Chan, who was beautiful and beautiful, was brought in. As soon as the woman came in, she owed Zhu Houzhao first.

Seeing this, Zhu Houzhao only gave Jiao Fang a wink. Jiao Fang understood Zhu Houzhao's meaning, so he asked on behalf of Zhu Houzhao: "I heard from Mr. Han that you are knowledgeable and have a great study of the history of the Song Dynasty. Let me ask you, but what do you think about the disputes between the cliques after Xining?"

The woman, Yu Ai, only picked up a pair of peach blossom eyes and looked at Jiao Fang, then looked at Old Shangshu Han: "I don't know, nor do I know what kind of Shangshu Mr. Han is, but I don't know why the masters call me to come?"

Zhu Houzhao waved her hand and signaled Jiao Fang to let the woman retreat.

Jiao Fang knew it and asked someone to take the woman down.

Then, Zhu Houzhao smiled and said to Old Shangshu Han: "Old Shangshu Han, you are really good at writing. People say that young people admire se, but I didn't expect that the same is true for old age. Of course, it's nothing, but why do you have to deceive me? However, I want to ask, you wrote a memorial to the court to correct the customs, but why did you ruin this customs yourself first?"

"Old minister, old minister, old minister is guilty!"

Old Shangshu Han suddenly said, "But Lao Me and Yu Love are the true love, Your Majesty! The old Message is willing to divorce his wife for Yu Love, and make a relationship with her. Please ask Your Majesty to make the decision!"

"snort!"
