Chapter 557 Heartbreaking Pain
Zhu Yunxi gave the memorial to Qu Tao and said, "Look, draw out those who can go to sea with you."

"Yes, my subordinates obey."

Qu Tao hesitated for a moment, took the brush from Wang Zhong, and began to draw circles on the memorial, and finished drawing in a short while.

He put his hands up and said: "Your Majesty, some of these students were born in coastal areas, and some lived by the water. Your Majesty's Holy Order."

Zhu Yunxi moved his fingers, asked Wang Zhong to take the memorial, and ordered: "Send it to the Ministry of War, and also send a copy to Ma He, and let these people go to sea with them."

"Yes, slaves obey."

"Your Majesty..." Qu Tao was very touched by the trust of the emperor. His Majesty didn't even have a list to watch. What kind of trust is this!

"Let's not talk about that, Geng Rui will be busy these days. You have to run between the Shenji camp and the martial arts hall. You must be too busy. Why, what else is there to do when you enter the palace today?" Zhu Yunxi asked.

Qu Tao saluted and said, "This subordinate also bears the responsibility of guarding and commanding, so I dare not slack off."

Zhang Fu who was standing on the side curled his lips when he heard the words. Qu Tao was the commander of the guards when His Majesty was in the East Palace. Now, although Shangshan Supervisor has a heavy responsibility, he is still His Majesty's "number one" guard, and he is the deputy.

The key is that he often enters the palace on duty, and with Qu Tao around, it would be difficult for Zhang Fu to become a full-time official!

Zhu Yunxi looked at him and smiled, and asked, "Did you hear something?"

Qu Tao saluted solemnly: "Your Majesty's holy power cannot be damaged in the slightest!"

Zhu Yunxi didn't speak, but walked out, Qu Tao, Wang Zhong, and Zhang Fu hurriedly followed behind.

After leaving the gate of the main hall, walked to the railing in front of the hall, looked towards the west, and saw that the sun had already slanted to the west, and a round of red sun was supported by the peak of the mountain, and it had not yet set.

He asked, "Jiang Yu, has it been two days?"

Jiang Yu, who was standing outside the gate of the main hall, was taken aback for a moment, then hurriedly bowed and said, "It has been two days since I reported to Your Majesty."

Zhu Yunxi nodded his head, his eyes were still fixed on the west, and after a while he said leisurely, "Please let Prince Consort Wang Ning enter the palace."

"Yes, I obey!" Jiang Yu took a breath, bowed and retreated without making a sound after saluting.

……

When Jiang Yu found Wang Ning, he was drinking with Fu Rang in a restaurant.

Because there was no harvest today, both of them felt a little depressed. Wang Ning poured himself a glass of wine, raised his neck and poured it down.
"Tnd, this group of people are really monkey spirits! No one is willing to come forward and be invited!"

Fu Rang also poured himself a glass of wine, drank it all, and cursed angrily: "They've all learned their skills. Before leaving the house, let the scary people inquire about it, lest they meet us! Tnd, I killed his father!" Mother still fucked his daughter-in-law! She hides from me like this!"

Wang Ning shook his head, drank another glass of wine and said depressedly: "I took out all my belongings, mortgaged the land, and bought silk cloth. If I can't go to sea, I will lose money!"

Fu Rang glanced at him, and also drank a glass of wine, "My son-in-law, at the beginning, you said that we could make a little money, even if we couldn't earn a lot of money, we could still have a full stomach, but I listened to you , sold everything that could be sold in the house, and mortgaged the house, if this fell into my hands, I would lose even my belongings!"

Wang Ning said: "Who doesn't know that your Duke's family has a great career, and you are here to cry with me?"

Hearing what he said, Fu Rang became anxious!

"My son-in-law, you said it at the beginning, don't deny it now! Don't look at me as the Duke's mansion, but my father is the Duke, what am I?
The bulk of the family property is also my brother's, and what I have in my hands is just a small house and a few acres of Susukida. If I lose it... I will have to drink the northwest wind! "

"Alright, alright!"

Wang Ning said impatiently: "It's still early, you're impatient? With such a huge team and so many people going to sea, there are always loopholes to take advantage of.

Let's not invite those who are in charge, and still threaten and lure the people below?Don't worry, there must be a road when the car reaches the mountain, and the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge! "

"My son-in-law is so handsome!"

Suddenly a voice came, and the two of them hurriedly turned their heads to watch, only to see that Jiang Yu was already standing in the box at some time, and there were still a few Jinyiwei standing at the door of the box.

Wang Ning recognized him as the Commander of Jin Yiwei, suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, quickly got up and said politely: "So it is Commander Jiang, there are very few visitors, what wind brought Commander here, please, please, sir Your seat..."

Fu Rang also stood up and invited politely.

Jiang Yu didn't appreciate it, and waved his hand and said: "I can't bear the kindness of the two of you, so I will skip the seat. Your Majesty summoned the son-in-law to the palace to have an audience. Come with us..."

The smile on Wang Ning's face suddenly froze, he looked back at Fu Rang in disbelief,
When did the palace summon the courtiers, and they actually worked for the master of Jinyiwei?
Even if Jin Yiwei came to "invite", then he shouldn't be the one who invited him!The master is in the box, why don't you invite him?Could it be that they got it wrong?
And when Fu Rang saw Wang Ning looking at him with that kind of eyes, he suddenly went crazy!
tnd!Look at what I am doing at this time!Do you still think that Jin Yiwei doesn't know his own affairs, and didn't pay attention to himself!You are a naked sellout!

"Uh, cough cough...well, Commander Jiang, is Your Majesty calling me into the palace for an audience?"

Jiang Yu nodded and replied: "Your Majesty's oral order is indeed to call the son-in-law into the palace."

"Then... then, just me?"

Wang Ning couldn't believe his ears, and turned his gaze to Fu Rang again, and then a complex look appeared in his eyes, and there was a little suspicion and a little bit of guard in the examination...

Burang moved his lips, trying very hard not to swear, at this moment, while pretending to be calm, he winked at Wang Ning, not letting him "carry on" himself again!
At this time, he had already greeted Wang Ning's ancestors several times in his heart. In front of Jin Yiwei, what do you mean by that?Don't you suspect that Lao Tzu put the blame on you?

Your Majesty let you enter the palace, and Jin Yiwei is also looking for you, you have to drag someone behind you!

Restraining the anger in his heart, Fu Rang tried to make himself look harmless to humans and animals, with a stiff smile on his face, "My son-in-law, since His Majesty has summoned you, go quickly, and don't keep Your Majesty waiting!"

Jiang Yu glanced at Fu Rang, which almost didn't scare his soul out, and said quickly: "Commander Jiang has worked so hard to find you, so don't keep him waiting, let's go!"

After finishing speaking, You smiled brightly at Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu said, "Your Majesty didn't mention anyone else, son-in-law, please!"

Hearing this, Wang Ning's heart was as cold as water, and Fu Rang's brows were filled with joy!

It seems that I have nothing to do with myself, it was a false alarm...

Wang Ning really wanted to tell Jiang Yu that he was not the one who injured Tie Xuan, but he still didn't know why His Majesty summoned him, and he didn't know the reason of the incident, so he had to hold back and followed Jiang Yu into the palace.

On the way, Wang Ning couldn't help asking His Majesty what he wanted to do when he was summoned. How could Jiang Yu dare to tell him, but he only said that he didn't know, so he closed his eyes and rested up and stopped answering.

The carriage stopped outside Chengtian Gate, and Jiang Yu took Wang Ning to the Meridian Gate on foot, where they met Wang Zhong.

Wang Zhong greeted him with a smile, and then said: "The son-in-law is finally here, please let Your Majesty wait so long!"

Wang Ning became cautious at this time, and hurriedly said: "It's a sin, I kept His Majesty waiting for a long time, and I will definitely plead guilty to Your Majesty..."

Wang Zhong had a bright smile on his face, "Your Majesty is in a hurry, so let the slaves wait here for the son-in-law. Your Majesty has questions!"

Wang Ning quickly knelt on the ground, respectfully wanting to listen to the edict.

"Your Majesty asked, Lu's Spring and Autumn "Preface" contained: "My dear friend, I would like to ask the Twelve Ji, how did Wen Xinhou answer?" "

"Uh uh..."

Wang Ning instantly felt as if his throat was blocked by something, his head went blank, and he stammered: "It is said that there is a world and a land,...uh..."

Wang Zhong frowned, curled his lips, and asked again: "Your Majesty, I will ask again, what is the text of the way of heaven that Lao Tzu said?"

Wang Ning knelt on the ground and groaned for a long time, unable to utter a word, his face flushed from holding back.

Wang Zhong chatted and shook his head, then walked inside the palace gate.

But Prince Consort Wang Ning didn't get His Majesty's decree, and he didn't dare to get up, so he had to keep kneeling.

After a long time, the sky became a little dizzy, and Wang Zhong came out with slow steps.

When he approached, Wang Ning hurriedly said: "Eunuch Wang, Eunuch Wang, I am a little confused today, I can't remember clearly, please forgive me..., Your Majesty...how do you say it?"

Wang Zhong waved his hand, and the little eunuch behind him put a pen and ink and a blank memorial on the ground. Wang Ning was puzzled by such a move.

"My lord, what is the meaning of this?"

"My son-in-law, you came into the palace to see His Majesty, but you smelled of alcohol. Fortunately, you didn't come before Your Majesty, otherwise you will lose your dignity in front of you...

Your Majesty said, when you sober up and remember, you can write it on paper and submit it! "

At this moment, Wang Ning felt aggrieved, like eating a handful of jujubes, sour and painful, all kinds of tastes are really hard to describe.

I did drink, and I did smell a bit alcoholic, but I wasn't drunk!

His head is still very clear, and he couldn't answer His Majesty's question, not because he was drunk, but because he didn't know how to do it himself!
Although "Lushi Chunqiu" is also a well-known masterpiece, who still reads it in the imperial examination now?It can be said that since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty dismissed hundreds of schools and only respected Confucianism, Lu's status in the Spring and Autumn Period plummeted!
Because "Lu's Spring and Autumn" is the first anthology compiled in an organized and planned way in history.
The key point is that it is based on Taoism, adheres to the code of conduct for governance by doing nothing, uses Confucian ethics to position the value scale, absorbs the concept of justice of Mohism, the speculative logic of famous scholars, and the skills of governing the country of Legalists, plus the changes in tactics of military strategists and peasants. The pursuit of geographical advantages has formed a complete set of national governance theories.

To put it bluntly, it is a hodgepodge, but to put it bluntly, it is a collection of the strengths of a hundred schools of thought, with discussions from all schools and schools!
Books like this, even if they are read by scholars, are just "leisure books", used to understand some affairs and pass the time!

There are also a few people who don't read the serious imperial examination books, but go to study and recite Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals!
So don't say that Wang Ning can't answer, even a well-read person can only give a general idea, how can he recite the original text!
But Wang Zhong didn't care about this, and said to Jiang Yu who was on the side: "Master Jiang, there are brothers from Lao Jinyiwei who are guarding here. When the son-in-law writes it out, he will submit it to His Majesty when he writes it correctly."

Jiang Yu said politely, "Your Majesty, you are polite."

Wang Zhong nodded, glanced at Wang Ning, the son-in-law who was kneeling on the ground, and turned to leave.

Wang Ning had no choice but to turn to Jiang Yu for help, but Jiang Yu was willing to help him!To help him at this time is to make an enemy of His Majesty!

My own head, I don't want to move yet!

Jiang Yu came to the side, called his confidantes over, and told them: "Make your recruits brighter, don't show kindness indiscriminately, be careful not to cling to the powerful, and fold in yourself first!"

"My lord, what do you mean..." someone asked.

"I don't mean anything. The palace asked him to write, and he had to write it correctly. You can decide for yourself, but if anyone tries to trick me at this time, it's hard for me to explain. Hmph, I'll make his life worse than death first! There is still room for Jin Yiwei's prison!"

"hiss……"

Looking at the gloomy expression on Jiang Yu's face, several people took a breath, and immediately understood, "Don't worry, my lord, I will be cautious in my words and deeds!"

"It's not to be sincere, but to be deaf and dumb!" Jiang Yu said with fierce eyes.

"Yes, from now on, the subordinates are either deaf or dumb, and they can't speak a word!"

Only then did Jiang Yu nodded in satisfaction, and then ordered four people to look at Jiang Yu. He couldn't help but be careful with his own people, and even if other people wanted to approach, they had to block it!

After the subordinates took the order, they stood in the four corners of the son-in-law Wang Ning's east, west, north, south, with their backs to him, without saying a word.

Wang Ning anxiously scratched his head, and the palace asked himself to think, but he didn't know how to do it at all, so how could he think about it!
It wasn't in his memory at all, even if he broke his head, he couldn't find anything!

So he had no choice but to ask Jin Yiwei for help, asked them in a low voice, and promised to give them some benefits.

Usually at this time, no matter it is Jin Yiwei or the eunuchs in the palace, they will lend a helping hand.

But today is an exception!

There was only silence in response to him, and the four Jinyiwei didn't even move their bodies, let alone make any noise.

As night fell and the sky was dark, Wang Ning was still kneeling outside the Meridian Gate. The cold and hard stone slabs slowly made his knees hurt, as if many needles were being pricked.
And this kind of pain is not only on the skin and legs, but also in the heart, which makes the heart feel uncontrollable. The pain is really indescribable...
