The First Gongsheng of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 80

"Several, help me tie up this villain!"

Zhang Zhouchao shouted loudly at several Jinyi guards.

Xiao Jing couldn't laugh or cry: "Mr. Zhang, what are you going to do?"

Zhang Zhoudao: "It's okay for me to discipline. If you teach such a rebellious son, forget it, I will tie the bundles to the hall myself. Let's go!"

Zhang Zhou casually grabbed the rope that bound the wood beside him, and pulled Zhang Jun over to tie him up.

As for the upper hall...

Xiao Jing didn't want to understand why Zhang Zhou said that.

Like an outsider, Zhu Houzhao came over and said, "Zhang Qing's family, please speak up if you have something to say. If you want to beat your son, go home and beat him!"

"It's like my home."

"you……"

Zhu Houzhao immediately realized that he was the intruder.

He was a little disheartened and depressed, but it disappeared in an instant.

Seeing the reaction of the usually domineering prince, Zhang Zhou probably knew that he had no intention of revenge, so he knew it.

As a prince, what is the most extravagant thing?
It is the identity of ordinary people.

In other words, others treat him as an ordinary person.

For Zhu Houzhao, the concept of playmates does not exist.

There is no saying in Ming Dynasty that there is no prince to accompany the reading. The children of the clan can find peers to read with them, but the prince lives in the East Palace for a long time, and the regular servants of the East Palace are all eunuchs and Hanlin, and Zhu Houzhao has no brothers. Since he left the pavilion to study, a group of people surrounded him Turn alone.

It is precisely because there is no role model among classmates that Zhu Houzhao has always been self-centered.

It can be said that Zhu Houzhao's character is both innate and acquired.

People in this era don’t have the ability to cultivate children’s psychological quality. Although Zhu Youtang knows that his son is stubborn, he has no solution. Guan Xiong's children are more rebellious, and Zhu Houzhao ascended the throne at the age of fourteen...

Even though Zhu Houzhao was a genius and had the courage to surpass the ancient kings, he was finally ruined by environmental education.

Furthermore, even if Zhu Houzhao finds a playmate, others will regard him as a prince, so why would they fight with him?

For Zhu Houzhao, this is an unprecedented life experience.

"Mr. Xiao, please lead the way, and I will take this wicked son to plead guilty!"

Zhang Zhou tried his best not to mention the words "father-in-law", "emperor" and "prince" in front of his son.

Zhang Jun has also learned a little bit. If he knew that he was fighting the heir apparent of Daming, maybe he would not have that arrogance and would not take advantage of Zhang Zhou's wishes.

But it seems that Zhang Jun doesn't understand this stuff either.

Zhang Jun looked at his father who came to tie him up with resentment, his little eyes could kill.

……

……

Xiao Jing first took the prince out of the house, and a group of people went to help Zhu Houzhao clean up.

But Zhang Zhou personally escorted his son to Zhu Youtang to apologize.

"Stinky boy, show some momentum later, what to say, don't give up because of fear!"

Walking on the road, Zhang Zhou was still instigating.

Zhang Jun gritted his teeth and said, "Father, you don't know right from wrong!"

"Okay, keep it up!"

"Father, it's no wonder Grandpa used to say you're useless, you're really useless!"

"You kid is looking for a beating, right?"

"Don't let people tell you that you are useless? My son was beaten in his own yard, and he tied me up to apologize? I don't have a useless father like you!"

"Okay, just say that in a while! Please keep your anger! See if the kid in front is there, treat him as an enemy! You won't bite hard enough in a while, let alone my son Zhang!"

"Humph!"

……

……

The teahouse at Jiekou is currently guarded by guards both inside and outside.

The shopkeeper was still a little scared, because he saw that this group of people were all armed with weapons, and they looked like princes and nobles.

The second floor did not allow tea to be served, but they found someone to boil water to make tea downstairs. From the kettle to the tea set to the tea leaves used, they were all brought by this group of people... so much so that even the tea doctor who served the tea could not Not eligible to go upstairs.

Zhu Youtang will not sit by the window, the doors and windows are closed, this is to ensure the safety of the king.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Zhang is here."

With a mournful face, Xiao Jing took hesitant steps and appeared in front of the emperor.

Zhu Youtang put down the tea bowl and said with a smile: "Why don't you let him come up? It's not in the palace, so there is no need for so many etiquette!"

Then Xiao Jing went to the stairs to deliver a message.

But Zhang Zhou escorted a child whose arms were tied behind his back and whose body was like a ball of mud, up the stairs.

Seeing this posture, Zhu Youtang couldn't help asking curiously: "Bingkuan, what are you doing?"

"Master Zhu, I'm bringing this scoundrel here to plead guilty to you! Brat, admit your mistake!"

"I am right!"

Zhang Jun didn't know the identity of the opposite party, he only knew that it was the father of the boy who fought with him just now, of course he refused to admit that he just scolded his father for being useless, he himself was not a useless person.

Zhu Youtang pointed to Zhang Jun, then looked at Xiao Jing, meaning to ask Xiao Jing to explain.

But at the same time.

Surrounded by the crowd, Zhu Houzhao appeared from the stairs.

When Zhu Youtang saw the same dirty clothes on his son, he seemed to understand the general idea.

Zhang Zhou cupped his hands and said: "Master Zhu, I have no way to discipline you. This rebellious son actually offended your son, but they only threw the dirt a few times, and they didn't act excessively. I also ask Master Zhu to come down!"

"you……"

Zhu Youtang's eyes were fixed on his son.

Zhu Houzhao walked over with a calm face and said, "Father, my son did not lose!"

Zhu Youtang frowned, is this a question of your victory or defeat?

You kid avoids the important and takes the light!

"Bah! Shameless, you haven't lost yet? Give me another chance, and I will beat you all over the floor looking for teeth! If you dare to bully my sister, don't let me see you again, see you once." Hit you once!"

"Bold!"

Liu Jin shouted in his drake voice.

In front of the emperor, he finally had a chance to speak.

At this time, it was also a good opportunity to hurt Zhang Zhou and his son... In fact, he also wondered in his heart, didn't Zhang Zhou tell his son who he was beating on the way?

Came here to meet the emperor, so arrogant?
It's true that there is no way to go to the palace of the king of hell, you vote yourself.

Zhu Youtang saw that his son was fine, and then heard Zhang Jun yelling something like "come to bully my sister", and he probably heard that his son had made a mistake first.

He knows best what the prince is like.

Zhu Youtang frowned and said, "Prince, I asked you to visit Zhang Qing's house, why did you go?"

Zhu Houzhao said: "Father, I went to the courtyard of his house, and the door was open. Zhang Qing's family was not at home. I saw a girl playing with muddy water at the door, and I played with it for a while... "

"Bullshit!"

Zhu Youtang wanted to scold.

What is your identity, to play mud with little folk girls?

It really gave your father a face.

"Then you still insulted that girl?"

Zhu Youtang did not cover up the child when it came to key matters, and questioned him directly.

Zhu Houzhao said: "Father, I will say it again, I didn't bully her, I just smeared some mud on her face... The little girl cried, and I wanted to tease her..."

Now even the surrounding eunuchs, including Jin Yiwei Commander Mou Bin, understood.

This is how the relationship dispute started.

Running into someone's house to bully the little girl, the little girl's brother fought back angrily without knowing the identity of the prince. Although the result was just tossing each other with mud balls, but now he still makes people come to plead guilty.

Zhang Zhou was finally able to reveal the identity of the other party: "Your Majesty, this is all the fault of this traitor. I am not at home. I never thought that he would cause such a disaster!"

"Father! They are the ones who broke into our house and bullied my sister. Why do you admit to them?"

Up to this time, Zhang Jun was still obsessed with it.

He didn't even know what "Your Majesty" or "Prince" meant. He didn't even go to school, and Zhang Zhou didn't teach him a few words. He was still looking for a husband recently, otherwise he wouldn't be at home with his sister playing in the mud.

Zhu Youtang looked at Zhu Houzhao coldly and said, "Are you okay?"

Zhu Houzhao said: "Of course it's okay, just depend on him?"

As he spoke, he still looked at Zhang Jun with provocative eyes.

He was met with hostile anger from Zhang Jun's eyes.

Zhang Zhoudao: "Nizi, kneel down! This is Your Majesty and Crown Prince of Daming, this is my Monarch of Daming, the master of heaven and earth, don't you even understand the most basic etiquette?"

This time Zhang Zhou did it directly, pressing his son to the ground.

Angry on his face, but secretly smiling in his heart.

Well done son.

Don't lose your father's face!

Zhang Jun finally seemed to understand that if he offended someone that even his father couldn't afford to offend, the previous anger would be vented in an instant.

"Ha ha."

Zhu Youtang smiled and said, "The tiger father has no dogs. Your son... is very brave. Those who don't know are innocent. Get up."

Dai Yi next to him saw the signs and said with a smile: "Yes, Your Majesty, you still support Mr. Zhang's son as Jinyiwei Qianhu. It seems that this young Jinyi really has the loyalty and courage of his father. Although he offended the prince, But what he wholeheartedly protects is his family. Honesty is the rarest thing.”

"Ah."

Zhu Youtang nodded with a smile. He loved the house and Wu, and he appreciated and praised the childish Zhang Jun who was kneeling on the ground.

This stunned Liu Jin on the side.

Can you do this?

Someone beat the crown prince, but there is nothing wrong with it, can you still get a reward?

"You guys!" Zhu Youtang had an amiable face just now, but suddenly he glared at Liu Jin and other followers who had just come upstairs, "I asked you to accompany the prince to the gate of Zhang Qing's house, so that the prince can fight with others without dissuading him. But I don’t know what loyalty is?!”

"Your Majesty, slaves should die!"

Liu Jin and several Jin Yiwei hurriedly knelt down to admit their mistake.

Zhu Houzhao curled his lips and said: "Father, you didn't even punish that kid surnamed Zhang, but praised him, so what's the matter with these people around Guan Erchen? It's Erchen who won't let them go! Erchen just wants to be good with this kid Will!"

"Come on!"

Zhu Youtang sternly said.

"His Majesty……"

Xiao Jing moved forward.

"Send the crown prince back to the East Palace, and don't say anything about leaving the palace after today!"

"Yes!"

"Father...my son is right..."

Zhu Houzhao was dragged downstairs by Liu Jin and others amidst the sound of protest.

"His Majesty."

Zhang Zhou and his son are still there waiting to be punished.

Zhu Youtang walked over to Zhang Zhou, looked down at Zhang Jun again, and said with a smile, "Your Majesty has nothing to do with this matter, let someone send him back to the mansion. I have something to tell you."

"Yes."

Zhang Zhou said to Zhang Jun, "Xiao Jun, after you go back, you will think about your mistakes behind closed doors, and ask your mother to teach you benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trustworthiness. In these two days, I will find your husband to enlighten you. You must not step out of the inner courtyard before going to school!"

"Ok!"

Zhang Jun was very unconvinced.

Just a snort.

Zhu Youtang shook his head slightly to the people next to him, and Jin Yiwei dragged Zhang Jun downstairs, and untied the rope that bound him by the way.

"Bingkuan, your son hasn't been enlightened yet?"

Zhu Youtang asked as he walked back.

Zhang Zhou followed behind and said: "Yes, before the minister's family was in decline, he lived in a farmhouse, and later he took the autumn exam and was busy with many other things, and then brought him to Beijing. He has just settled down."

"En." Zhu Youtang sat down, smiled and made a gesture of invitation.

Zhang Zhou also sat down.

Zhu Youtang said: "I like this child very much. You still have a daughter, don't you?"

"Yes, five years old." Zhang Zhou was talking about false years.

"It's the same as me." Zhu Youtang sighed, "I also have a son and a daughter. In the past few years, I have always wanted to have another... Sigh! In this regard, I am afraid that I am not as good as you."

The tone of the emperor's speech seemed to be his own brother's narration. Instead of blaming Zhang Jun, Zhu Youtang seemed to be pouring bitter water, and even told Zhang Zhou his own sad things.

Zhang Zhou cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, if you believe what I say, I can help you think of some good solutions, and maybe you can make the empress do more for your majesty!"

Speak clearly.

Relying on the queen, that is, the two of you, husband and wife, you can continue to have children without accepting concubines.

Believe it or not.
