My father Zhu Gaoxu

Chapter 101 Evil Thoughts

Zhu Zhanhe was so anxious that he kept urging the coachman to hurry up. It was already dark and the curfew had begun, so the coachman also drove the carriage so fast that the horse's hooves almost ran out of sparks.

Originally, there were many happy events these few days, especially Han Wangfei, who was pursued by countless noble ladies every day, and crow's feet almost appeared in the corners of her eyes, and the whole palace was full of joy.

Zhu Zhanhe was behind the scenes helping Princess Han to make suggestions, and the mother and son even began to think about how much money they could bring back from the voyage this time.

In the end, extreme joy gave way to grief, Zhu Gaoxu, the restless father, had an accident again, Zhu Zhanhe didn't dare to tell Han Wangfei, and planned to go to the palace to see the situation first.

Speaking of Zhu Gaoxu, Zhu Zhanhe really had a headache, everyone else was a father's worrying son, but it turned out to be the other way around for him.

Sometimes Zhu Zhanhe also thinks, who is the father between him and Zhu Gaoxu?Who is the son?
The carriage rushed into the imperial city, and Zhu Zhanhe arrived at the Hall of Martial Heroes at the fastest speed.

When he entered the main hall, he saw Zhu Gaoxu with black eye circles and torn lips at a glance. The ground was in a mess, and notebooks, brushes, inkstones, etc. were thrown everywhere.

Zhu Di was panting heavily while sitting behind the desk, while Zhu Gaochi next to him looked helpless, it seemed that he had finished his beating.

He was late, Zhu Zhanhe sighed, but thinking of Zhu Gaoxu's rough skin and thick flesh, it was nothing at all to be beaten, but he had to worry that Zhu Di would not hurt himself.

"Grandson pays respects to Grandpa Huang!"

Zhu Zhanhe bit the bullet and went forward to salute and said, Dad made a mistake, he is a son who came to lead someone, what is this called?

Unexpectedly, when Zhu Di saw Zhu Zhanhe, he slapped the table angrily, pointed at him and yelled at Zhu Gaoxu again: "Look at your son, he is so sensible at such a young age, and he still has to worry about you as a father. Don't you feel ashamed?"

"I didn't make any mistakes, it's the censor looking for trouble!"

Zhu Gaoxu puffed out his chest and shouted confidently, apparently the beating just now didn't convince him.

"You bastard, you made a big mistake yourself, yet you still dare to talk back to me, believe it or not..."

Zhu Di's anger erupted again, pointing at Zhu Gaoxu and scolding him head and face.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhu Zhanhe quietly asked Zhu Gaochi beside him, "Uncle, what trouble did my father cause?"

"Your father was racing horses with his subordinates outside the city, and trampled on many common people's vegetable fields. He happened to be met by Yu Shi Liu Jin, so Liu Jin stepped forward to dissuade him. As a result, your father not only refused to listen, he even beat him up. After a pause, now the entire Metropolitan Procuratorate is in a state of disarray, and they have written letters to impeach your father!"

Zhu Gaochi replied weakly that he also had a headache when he met a brother like Zhu Gaoxu.

After hearing this, Zhu Zhanhe also put his hand on his forehead. As a son, he had more headaches than Zhu Gaochi.

The winter in Jinling City is not too cold, so many people outside the city plant vegetables in autumn. These vegetables happen to grow in winter, and there is no need to harvest them. As long as there is no heavy frost and snow, the vegetables in the field will not freeze.

The price of fresh vegetables in winter is very high. Many vegetable farmers rely on the vegetables in the field and go to the city every day to sell vegetables to earn some money so that they can support their families.

In the end, Zhu Gaoxu was lucky. During the horse race, he stepped on the vegetables of the vegetable farmers and beat the censor. This is his own son, otherwise Zhu Di would have hacked him to death with a knife.

Zhu Di pointed at Zhu Gaoxu and yelled loudly, but Zhu Gaoxu was not convinced, and contradicted him from time to time, and every time Zhu Di was about to lose his temper, he only talked back, which made Zhu Di keep getting angry. He was simply a natural master of fighting fire .

In the end, Zhu Zhanhe couldn't listen any longer, so he had to step forward to persuade him: "Grandfather, please calm down, this matter is my father's fault. For the losses of those vegetable farmers, our Han Palace is willing to double the compensation!"

Hearing his son also say that he was wrong, Zhu Gaoxu turned his head to the side angrily, but didn't say anything.

"Compensation is certain. I've already asked someone to do it. Then it will be deducted from your father's salary!"

Zhu Di took a few breaths, calmed down the anger in his heart, and then said again: "The most troublesome thing now is the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Yushi Liu Jin was beaten, and the entire Metropolitan Procuratorate has gone crazy. , The impeachment has never been interrupted, they will definitely attack your father tomorrow morning, how should I step down by then?"

"It's just a bunch of sour literati who can only move their mouths. I'm afraid of them?"

Zhu Gaoxu said with a look of disdain.

"Shut up, stay in the capital every day and cause trouble for me, and go back to the fief tomorrow!"

Zhu Di was so angry that he wanted to throw something at Zhu Gaoxu again, but he had already thrown away all the things on the table, so he had to slap the table hard twice in the end.

"Just go, it's boring to stay in the capital anyway, it's better to go to the fiefdom and have a good time!"

Zhu Gaoxu said uncharacteristically.

In the past, if Zhu Gaoxu was allowed to go to the fiefdom, he would definitely be very unwilling, but now he has given up on the position of prince. Instead of staying in the capital and being controlled by others, it is more free to go to his own fiefdom.

"Okay! That's what you said, I'll give you three days, pack up and get out, don't let me see you again!"

Zhu Di also got really angry, pointing at Zhu Gaoxu and cursing again.

"Go away!"

Zhu Gaoxu was also very bachelor, he turned around and left after speaking, he was probably the only one in the entire Ming Dynasty who dared to stand up to Zhu Di so hard.

Zhu Zhanhe wanted to persuade him, but he didn't have time to speak, so he had no choice but to salute Zhu Di: "Grandfather, calm down, what my father said just now is just angry words, don't take it to heart!"

Zhu Gaochi also said at this time: "Father, you drove the second child back to the fief, didn't you let him harm the people in the fief? Why don't you let him stay in the capital, so that you can still watch him!"

"He will do whatever he likes to harm, I don't care, when the time comes, I won't be out of sight, out of mind, lest I be mad at him to death!"

Zhu Di sat back on the chair and said angrily again.

At this time, Zhu Zhanhe saw that Zhu Gaoxu was about to leave the Hall of Martial Heroes, so he said to Zhu Di again: "Grandfather, my father is angry, I will help you look after him, so as not to cause any trouble, I will represent you tomorrow." He apologizes to you!"

"Go, go, Zhan He, you have worked hard to meet a father like the second child!"

Zhu Di waved his hand feebly, at this moment he and Zhu Zhanhe felt a sense of sympathy.

Zhu Zhanhe retreated, and then hurried to chase Zhu Gaoxu.

Zhu Gaoxu is tall and has long legs, and he walks fast when he is angry. Zhu Zhanhe chased him a long way before catching up with him.

"Father, why are you beating the censor?"

When Zhu Zhanhe opened his mouth, he asked Zhu Gaoxu, hoping that he could give a different reason.

"It was he who scolded me first, don't think that I can't hear him because he speaks so politely!"

Zhu Gaoxu replied angrily.

"Okay, even if Liu Yushi scolded you first, why did you step on the vegetable farmers' vegetable fields?"

Zhu Zhanhe asked again patiently.

"If you want to step on it, you can step on it. I am a dignified prince. What is it if I step on an order? It doesn't hurt anyone. That Liu Jin dares to scold me. If I don't hit him, who will I hit?"

Zhu Gaoxu said again eloquently, with a face of righteousness and confidence, without any repentance.

Zhu Zhanhe took a deep breath after hearing this, and said silently in his heart: Don't be angry!do not be angry!You can't beat him!
Even though he couldn't beat him, Zhu Zhanhe still wanted to give Zhu Gaoxu a kick. Listen to what he said just now. Is it human?

"You can't say that. For vegetable farmers outside the city, the vegetables in the vegetable fields are the source of livelihood for the whole family. If you destroy their livelihood, how will the family live in the future?"

Zhu Zhanhe suppressed his anger, and patiently explained to Zhu Gaoxu again that he hoped that he could realize that the life of ordinary people is not easy.

"Why did you say the same thing as that Liu Jin?"

Zhu Gaoxu asked impatiently.

Zhu Zhanhe was even more speechless when he heard the words. Liu Jin, who dared to love someone, just persuaded him to be considerate of the people, but he was beaten by him in the end.

"Father, didn't you always like to compare yourself to Tang Taizong? Tang Taizong had a famous saying, 'people are like water, water can carry a boat, and it can also overturn a boat'. If you oppress the people at will, you are not afraid of causing public anger?"

Although Zhu Zhanhe was suppressing his anger, there was still some dissatisfaction in his words.

"It's just a few vegetable farmers, what should I care about?"

Zhu Gaoxu was also a little angry at this moment, and after speaking, he let out a cold snort and quickened his pace, unwilling to listen to Zhu Zhanhe's nagging.

Looking at Zhu Gaoxu's back in front of him, Zhu Zhanhe also frowned, he couldn't understand why Zhu Gaoxu bullied the people for no reason?And Zhu Gaoxu didn't understand him, why would he care about a few grassroots people?
This is not only a conflict of ideas between their father and son, but also a conflict between nobles and ordinary people. For nobles like Zhu Gaoxu who were born in the royal family and have an arrogant personality, ordinary people are not regarded by them at all.

Zhu Gaoxu will never know that even if he is capable enough, even surpassing Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Di will not give him the position of prince, because his arrogant and arrogant personality is not suitable for a country's prince, let alone an emperor , Yang Guang in history has long proved this point.

Now Zhu Gaoxu is only a prince, so he doesn't care about the life and death of a few vegetable farmers. If he becomes the emperor in the future, he probably won't care about the life and death of the people in the world.

Just like what Li Shimin said, people are like water, seemingly extremely soft, but once countless water droplets turn into floods, even high mountains will be washed away.

As the saying goes, where there is oppression, there is resistance. How can there be people in this world who are only oppressed but can't resist?

"Wait! It seems that there really are!"

At this time, Zhu Zhanhe had a flash of inspiration, thinking of a certain ethnic group known as a strange flower, and then he was taken aback by his own thoughts. This idea seems a bit too evil, right?
