Mixed with salted fish in Hongwudang

Chapter 305 Who Are You Calling Zhu Butcher?
Zhu Yunxi and Chang Sheng reminisced about the past, and when the people sent by Lao Zhu came over, the two were sitting side by side on the haystack, chatting and laughing.

Chang Sheng told Zhu Yunxie a lot about his mother and concubine's childhood, Zhu Yunxie listened with gusto, and felt that he finally had more sense of identity with Zhu Yunxie's identity.

Now that I have avenged Chang's, I should be qualified to be her son, and treasure the embroidery of half a tiger's head for her, right?

"Report to His Royal Highness the Third Emperor, the emperor asked you to return to the palace for dinner."

Without even thinking about it, Zhu Yunxi gave Erhu a bad face.

"Don't go!"

"Go back and tell the old man that I will live in the cell with my second uncle from now on. When the day of beheading, my second uncle and I go outside the Meridian Gate, let the old man chop us both up!"

Erhu secretly wiped off his sweat when he heard this. The third grandson dared to say it, but he didn't dare to pass it on, so he could only continue to bite the bullet.

"The emperor said, if you don't go back, I will hit you hard!"

Zhu Yunxi secretly calculated what he had committed recently, and suddenly had an ominous premonition that he might really be beaten...

In order not to annoy the old man anymore, he decided to lean back strategically.

"Then give the old man some face and go back and have a meal with him!"

Seeing his nephew being so arrogant, Chang Sheng couldn't help feeling a little suspicious, could Mrs. Lu really bully this child?
Seeing Chang Sheng's confused face, Erhu smiled and explained to Chang Sheng.

"The emperor and the third emperor's grandson are rare in ancient and modern times. You will get used to it after seeing more..."

Chang Sheng smiled bitterly when he heard the words, then shook his head and said.

"Pay attention to safety on the road, don't be missed by caring people."

Erhu nodded towards Chang Sheng and said.

"know!"

"The emperor has already dispatched five hundred elites from the Habayashi Guard to protect the third emperor's grandson."

"If you go out of the city, there will be at least a thousand people accompanying you."

Seeing what Erhu said, Chang Sheng stopped worrying immediately, and began to smile and wave to Zhu Yunxi.

"Go back, don't keep your grandpa waiting."

"Uh-huh!"

"Second uncle, just stay at ease, I will definitely rescue you!"

"Ha ha!"

"We are waiting for you!"

As soon as Zhu Yunxi followed the two tigers, an unexpected guest came into the cell.

Chang Sheng looked at the grizzled old man in front of him with a thoughtful look on his face.

"You are……"

"It doesn't matter who the old man is."

"I only have a few words to say when I come here, and I will leave after I finish speaking."

"Chang Sheng, what you have committed this time is too great. Even if the emperor spares your life for the sake of the third emperor's grandson, it will inevitably cause panic and even resistance among all the officials in the capital."

"Although they can't control His Majesty's decision to establish a crown prince, they can control the hearts of the people. You don't want the Third Emperor's grandson to be controlled everywhere in the future, and there is not even anyone willing to help him?"

"If you are really good for the third emperor's grandson, then don't make things difficult for him and His Majesty the emperor."

"That's all the old man said, as for how to make a decision, it's up to you."

After the old man said this, he threw a bundle of ropes into the cell and turned away.

Chang Sheng watched the old man leave, secretly thinking about what the old man said.

He never expected that His Majesty the Emperor would forgive him, but he just felt that committing suicide was unmanly and not honorable enough.

Hearing the old man's words now, he suddenly realized that his life and death were not only related to the Chang family, but also related to Zhu Yunxi's future...

Chang Sheng lay on the haystack and thought for a while, then got up and picked up the rope from the ground, and said to the jailer outside.

"Prepare me pen and ink, I want to write something!"

"Hold on!"

Zhu Yunxi followed Erhu back to the palace, and as soon as he entered the Qianqing Palace, he saw a strange imperial doctor waiting there early.

Seeing Dasun coming in, Lao Zhu hurriedly called the imperial physician to give Dasun a pulse.

The imperial physician said after examining Zhu Yunxi's pulse.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, the Third Emperor's grandson has recovered!"

Zhu Yunxie felt his heart skip a beat when he heard the word "great", and hurriedly grabbed the imperial physician and asked.

"Are your medical skills good? Let Hao Wenjie come instead!"

"My carriage that was bombed turned over, how could it be done so quickly?"

"I still have internal injuries!"

The imperial physician looked at Zhu Yunxi's ruddy complexion, and said with a flattering smile.

"The third emperor's grandson has a ruddy complexion, and speaks in a full-fledged manner, so don't worry about internal injuries..."

When Lao Zhu heard this, he immediately laughed happily.

"We understand!"

"You mean, it's okay for the grandson to be beaten now?"

"what?"

Physician Tian was originally a newcomer in the local area, and he didn't know the secrets in the palace, so he was immediately stunned when he heard the emperor's words.

I thought to myself, didn't His Majesty let me see a doctor, why did I suddenly say this?

Zhu Yunxi felt that something was wrong just now, why did Lao Zhu find a novice alone, leaving Hao Wenjie's acquaintance alone?
Hearing Lao Zhu's words now, he immediately realized that it was not good, this old man came for his ass!

Thinking of this, Zhu Yunxi quietly took two steps back, then turned around and ran away.

Seeing that Ni Sun dared to run, Lao Zhu took out his whip from his waist and chased after him. While chasing, he ordered the Jin Yiwei at the door to stop Ni Sun.

Poor Zhu Yunxi ran away more than ten feet away, but was dragged back by several guards in brocade clothes.

Old Zhu took Zhu Yunxi from Jin Yiwei, put him under his arm and entered the palace.

"Xiao Nisun, I have a few questions I want to ask you."

"How did your little Zhu butcher get the name?"

"Could it be inherited from us?"

"Also, which brothers you said are going to be sent to far away places, we have to figure it out with you, it's better once and for all, let's choose a good place to bury them!"

When Zhu Yunxi heard this, he immediately panicked.

"Grandfather, if we have something to say, we must control our emotions and don't do anything..."

"Grandson did that to provoke Mrs. Lu on purpose, not to offend you!"

"Also, grandson likes that little thing Zhu Yunxi the most, how could he be willing to bury him?"

"You are old..."

Lao Zhu brought his eldest grandson to the palace, threw him on the bed, told him to lie down with a black face, and whipped his whip at his ass violently.

"We are Butcher Zhu?"

"Even if we are Zhu Tuhu, it's not your turn to call us like that!"

"Everyone in the world can scold like that, but you can't!"

"Even if we are sorry to the people of the world, we are definitely worthy of you, a rebellious grandson!"

Zhu Yunxi was beaten up by Lao Zhu, and now seeing Lao Zhu reprimanding him like this, he hurriedly cried and begged for mercy.

"Grandfather, please forgive me!"

"Grandson is wrong, grandson will never dare again, wow..."

"You do not dare?"

"You are so daring, you dare to kill brothers and sisters!"

"If we don't give you some flair, will you have to force those uncles of yours to death in the future?"

"Don't dare!"

"Grandson dare not, wow..."

Lao Zhu beat Nisun with dozens of whips one after another, until Ni Sun was screaming, and then he put away his whip resentfully.

"Can I get out of bed and eat?"

"cannot!"

"Then make another ten whips?"

"Can you do it!"

Enduring the severe pain, Zhu Yunxi got down from the bed, and followed Lao Zhu to the side hall with his trousers in his hands.

Seeing how weak he looked, Lao Zhu said angrily.

"Stop pretending, let's hold back!"

Zhu Yunxi replied angrily.

"That hurts too!"

Old Zhu secretly rolled his eyes when he heard this, and thought, if it wasn't for the fact that Ni Sun was injured just now, based on his phrase "Zhu Butcher", two hundred lashes would be indispensable today.

This Ni Sun is really annoying, even if he intentionally angered Mrs. Lu, he can't abuse himself like this!

Lao Zhu picked up his rice bowl and ate it in a patter, and asked suddenly when he was halfway through eating.

"How is your second uncle?"

"It's okay, but the living conditions are not very good. I want Uncle Hu to transfer him to Jinyiwei Prison. Uncle Hu said he can't do it without your order."

Old Zhu said with drooping eyelids upon hearing this.

"Jinyiwei prison is full, let him squat in Yingtianfu prison."

Zhu Yunxi rubbed his buttocks and asked cautiously.

"Grandpa Huang, when are you going to let my second uncle go!"

"put?"

"When did we say we were going to let it go?"

"As for the bastard thing Chang Sheng did, it would be cheap for him to chop him off!"

Hearing what Lao Zhu said, Zhu Yunxi was so angry that he cried "wow".

When Lao Zhu heard Ni Sun's cry, he immediately put the bowl heavily on the table.

"Don't cry!"

"If you dare to cry again, we will order people to drag Chang Sheng outside the Meridian Gate and chop him up!"

Seeing what Lao Zhu said, Zhu Yunxi didn't dare to cry, but the tears rolled in the smoke ring and fell into the bowl patter.

Seeing Dasun like this, Lao Zhu felt distressed for a while.

Just thinking that Ni Sun has been spoiled by him, he secretly ruthless, pretending not to see, continue to eat and drink, and don't take anything to heart.

Zhu Yunxi had just finished lunch with Lao Zhu when he saw Erhu rushing in.

"My lord, something happened..."

Seeing that the two tigers didn't say anything directly, Lao Zhu immediately kicked Zhu Yunxi out.

"Go away and stay there after eating, don't be an eyesore in front of us!"

Zhu Yunxi rolled his eyes when he heard the words, and said disdainfully.

"cut!"

"Like who is rare..."

Although Zhu Yunxi said nothing unusual, his ears were pricked up long ago, and he even hid by the door after walking outside, eavesdropping on the conversation inside.

Erhu saw that Zhu Yunxi had gone out, so he took a step forward to report in a low voice.

"Just now, people from Yingtian Mansion sent word that the founding father hanged himself..."

Lao Zhu was shocked when he heard this, and his face was full of disbelief.

"What?"

"You said Chang Sheng committed suicide?"

Seeing the emperor's reaction so strongly, Erhu suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.

Sure enough, as soon as the emperor's words fell, the third grandson ran in with a mournful face.

"Old Zhutou, I hate you!"

After Zhu Yunxi finished speaking, he ran out of Qianqing Palace and called hundreds of guards to Yingtian Mansion.

When Lao Zhu heard Dasun's words, he felt sad for a while. He had beaten him so many times, and this was the first time that the kid said he hated him.

It can be seen from this that the child really cares about uncle Chang Sheng.

If Chang Sheng really died in Yingtian Mansion, I really don't know how to explain to my eldest grandson...

"Are you dead?"

"Almost!"

"Fortunately, the prison in Yingtian Mansion has been in disrepair for a long time, and the beams of the house did not bear the weight of the founding father, and broke from the middle. Otherwise, the founding father's body would be cold now."

"Check it out, who is playing tricks in the middle!"

"Then transfer Chang Sheng to Jinyiwei Prison..."

"promise!"

Zhu Yunxi hurriedly ran to Yingtian Mansion. On the way, he was already prepared for the worst, even thinking about how to bury Chang Sheng.

But when he walked into the prison and looked at the second uncle sitting in the half-collapsed cell and sighing, the depression in his heart was swept away immediately.

"Second uncle!"

"I thought I'd never see you again, woo woo woo!"

Chang Sheng was really depressed, he even wrote his suicide note, but he couldn't hold him in the prison of Yingtian Mansion, and he completely collapsed the house...

"Second Uncle, didn't we agree, you wait for me inside, I will definitely beg Grandpa Huang to release you, how can you keep your words!"

"Ugh……"

"Second uncle doesn't want to hurt you..."

"What harm or not?"

"If I, Zhu Yunxi, can't even keep my own uncle, how will the people of the world think of me?"

"This……"

While the two were talking, Yin Songyi of Yingtian Mansion hurried over to make amends.

"The grandson of the three emperors forgives his crimes, and the humble ministers are ineffective in supervision, so that the founding father almost commits suicide in fear of crime..."

Zhu Yunxi interrupted him before he finished speaking.

"The founding father is not guilty!"

"Lu Lu insulted my grandfather, cursed the prince, cursed me, cursed our royal family!"

"The founding father is doing justice for the heavens, and destroying them all for the grandpa!"

"This……"

Song Yi was speechless when he heard this, even if the third grandson wanted to protect Chang Sheng, there was no need to tell such a lie, right?
Although Lu Lu is a bit greedy, he is not a fool. How dare he criticize the royal family and curse the Crown Prince and His Majesty?
"Dare to ask the grandson of the third emperor, is there any evidence or physical evidence for this matter?"

Zhu Yunxi bit the bullet and made nonsense.

"Have!"

"Tomorrow I will bring witnesses and evidence!"

When several people were arguing, Erhu brought Jinyiwei's people over to pick him up. Song Yi was eager to get rid of this hot potato, but Zhu Yunxi didn't trust Lao Zhu and Jinyiwei's people, so he insisted on keeping Chang Sheng in Yingtian Mansion. Another hundred guards were left to guard the cell, for fear that someone would assassinate Chang Sheng.

Seeing that Zhu Yunxi was determined not to let him take Chang Sheng away, Erhu obeyed him.But before leaving, he called Zhu Yunxi out and said a few words.

"Son of the third emperor, the humble position has been investigated. This matter has nothing to do with the emperor. It is your master Gao Ming who came here to persuade Duke Kai to commit suicide."

Zhu Yunxi really suspected that Lao Zhu had tampered with it just now, but now that he heard Er Hu say this, he felt a little uncertain again.

"Master Gao?"

"Why did Master Gao do this?"

"I don't know about this lowly position. The grandson of the third emperor can ask Duke Founder, or ask Master Gao himself!"

Zhu Yunxi dropped the two tigers, ran back to the cell and asked.

"Second Uncle, tell me the truth, did Master Gao come to persuade you to commit suicide?"

Chang Sheng heard the words and hurriedly explained for Gao Ming.

"Yunxi, your master Gao is also doing it for your own good, so don't blame him."

"Besides, I also think that what Master Gao said is reasonable. My existence will indeed make things difficult for you and Your Majesty, and it will also affect your future..."

When Zhu Yunxi heard Chang Sheng's words, his face darkened immediately.

"I understand!"

"I'm going to settle the score with old man Gao!"

"Yunxiu, don't go!"

"Master Gao is also doing it for your own good..."

Zhu Yunxi didn't listen to Chang Sheng's call, turned around and walked out of the prison, taking his guards to Yingtianfu Hope School.

When Gao Ming came back from Yingtian Mansion, he told his two old friends about Chang Sheng.

"Ugh!"

"Old man, this is a crime!"

"Chang Sheng is one of the rare clean people among generals, but this old man actually forced him to commit suicide for his own sake. This old man really..."

Qin Hengbo and Yang Xinlu hurriedly tried to persuade them.

"I can't blame you for this matter. If the third grandson blames it, we will share it for you."

"The matter of Chang Sheng is too exciting, which civil servant would not be afraid?"

"If Chang Sheng wiped out all his families, and the emperor doesn't give an explanation to everyone in the world, it will chill the hearts of Ming officials!"

"That's the case, but in my heart..."

Gao Ming was upright and selfless all his life, but the matter of persuading Chang Sheng to commit suicide was like a thorn in his heart, filling his heart with guilt.

Just when Yang Xinlu and Qin Hengbo were changing their tricks to unlock Gaoming, they heard a loud "bang" from the door, and a person they least wanted to see appeared at the door.

"The gentlemen are so elegant!"

"I did something bad just now, but I'm still in the mood to talk and laugh?"

When the three of them heard Zhu Yunxi's words, they were so ashamed that they wanted to find a crack in the ground and sneak in.

Gao Ming was even more ashamed, his old face flushed red.

"Third emperor's grandson, this matter is indeed wrong for this humble official, and this humble official accepts punishment and accepts punishment!"

"But Chang Sheng must die!"

"This is morality, this is the will of the people, and this is the law of heaven!"

"The reason why I did this as a teacher is all for you, and I don't want you to go against the laws of heaven and people's hearts!"

Zhu Yunxi sneered when he heard this.

"Since you told me the principles of heaven, let me ask, how did you get into the prison of Yingtian Mansion?"

"In your capacity, you should not be qualified to interrogate prisoners in the prison, right?"

"Besides, you and Chang Sheng are neither close nor close, and you don't meet the conditions for interrogating mortals, right?"

"Then come and tell Gu how you got into Yingtian Mansion, and how you got into the death row prison!"

Gao Ming said hesitantly when he heard the words.

"As a teacher... as a teacher, I dragged a disciple. I had a disciple in my early years, and now Ying Tianfu is in charge of the judge..."

Zhu Yunxi sneered immediately when he heard this.

"Master Gao, is your behavior legal?"

"This……"

Seeing that Gao Ming was speechless, Zhu Yunxi roared furiously.

"The Law of the Ming Dynasty is already the bottom line of being a human being!"

"You don't even abide by the laws of the Ming Dynasty, how can you show me the principles of heaven and conscience!"

"Old man..."

"Old man what?"

"Do you want to say that you have to follow the power in a hurry, do you want to say that you are for justice?"

"But have you also forgotten that you once taught me what it means to guard against inevitability, what it means to be cautious and independent, what it means to be upright and upright, and to tell others everything..."

"Then, when you encounter problems, you just play tricks like this?"

"You are worthy of being a teacher, you are worthy of teaching me Zhu Yunxi, are you worthy of me calling you master!"

"I I I..."

Gao Ming had never been humiliated before, and he was so wronged that he burst into tears when he heard Zhu Yunxie's cannonball words.

If it wasn't for Zhu Yunxi's reputation, would he be worthy of doing this?
Regardless of whether Daming has one more noble or one less noble, what does it have to do with his brilliance?
However, what made him even more uncomfortable was that he couldn't refute it.

Because I did something that violated the law and conscience, and even violated the principles that I have always asked Zhu Yunxi to...

"The old man apologizes with death!"

After Gao Ming shouted this sentence, a flash of determination flashed across his face, and he slammed into the pillar of the room.

Zhu Yunxi just wanted to squeeze Gao Ming a few words, but he didn't want to let the old man die.Seeing this, he hurriedly stood in front of the pillar, but the old man was determined to die, and the force he knocked out was so strong that he not only knocked Zhu Yunxi against the pillar, but also bounced off himself.

Zhu Yunxi only felt as if his chest had been hit by a big hammer, and it took him a while to catch his breath.

Old Gao Ming burst into tears, and continued to look for the pillar to commit suicide. Zhu Yunxi was so angry that he ordered someone to tie him up on the spot.

"You guys watch him, and don't allow him to commit suicide again!"

After Zhu Yunxi finished speaking, he said another harsh word angrily.

"Master Gao, even if you want to die, go back to your Suzhou to die, don't try to tarnish my school!"

"My place is for teaching and educating people, not for you to mess around!"

Gao Ming laughed angrily when he heard this.

"Good good!"

"This old man has defiled the treasured land of the Three Emperors, so this old man will go back to Suzhou to commit suicide some other day. One life is worth one life to the head office!"

"what ever!"

Zhu Yunxie looked at Qin Hengbo and Yang Xinlu coldly after beating Gao Ming.

"Set a rule here alone!"

"You are willing to go out to teach Gu and assist Gu. Gu is very grateful."

"If you have any suggestions, you can ask Gu, as long as it is a reasonable suggestion, Gu will basically adopt it!"

"But one thing is wrong, that is, no one can make decisions for me!"

"No one can make decisions for me!"

"Don't say you can't do it, even my grandpa can't do it!"

Yang Xinlu and Qin Hengbo were still a little sad about the death of the rabbit and the fox, and the small emotions of things hurting other people.But after hearing Zhu Yunxi's words, the two of them immediately realized that they had made a big taboo, that is, they kept treating Zhu Yunxi like a child.

As everyone knows, no matter how young Zhu Yunxi is, he is still the master of the house, how can he be manipulated by others?

"I know I was wrong!"

"I know I was wrong!"

Gao Ming, who was tied to the chair, was taken aback when he heard this. He finally knew why Zhu Yunxi got angry. It turned out that it was because he had overstepped his bounds.
But he has just been humiliated by Zhu Yunxi, how can he admit his mistake easily, is he clever and shameless?

"Humph!"

"The old man is advising you now, please kill the founding father Chang Sheng, and give an explanation to the people of the world!"

Zhu Yunxi ignored Gao Ming's words and said firmly.

"That's a lonely family matter, it has nothing to do with the affairs of the world!"

After Zhu Yunxi put down these cruel words, he turned around and left the school, and went back to the palace to fight a protracted battle with Lao Zhu.

Before Zhu Yunxi came back, Lao Zhu had already learned about the school from Jin Yiwei.

Hearing that Dasun scolded the three masters and said that he was in charge of his own affairs, he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.

This is our grandson!

This is the demeanor and layout that the prince of the Ming Dynasty should have!

What is a courtier?
Those are the people who assist the emperor in handling affairs. If they can all make decisions for the emperor, why do you need the emperor?

Lao Zhu laughed happily, and when he heard the reminder from the eunuch outside that the little Ni Sun had returned, he quickly put on a straight face and pretended to be angry, and sat on the dragon chair to review the memorial.

Zhu Yunxi walked into the hall angrily, sat down on the chair, and jumped up with an "ow" as soon as he sat down.

"Who removed my cushion!"

Hearing Ni Sun's complaint, Lao Zhu pointed to the ground beside Zhu Yunxi. Zhu Yunxi looked down and saw a cushion on the ground.

Zhu Yunxi picked up the cushion and sat on it carefully before complaining to Lao Zhu.

"Grandfather, my grandson just gave those three old men a hard lesson!"

"They dared to go to see the grandson's second uncle privately, and persuaded the grandson's second uncle to commit suicide, saying that they should not cause trouble for the two of us!"

"The emperor's grandfather is so arbitrary, Wen Chengwu is virtuous. How can the eternal emperor who has merit in the present age and benefits in the future, be afraid of this little trouble?"

Lao Zhu had been sullenly pretending to be angry, but when he heard Da Sun brag about him so shamelessly, he couldn't hold back anymore, and laughed out loud.

"You little rebellious grandson, don't even think about giving us enchanted soup, we can let Chang Sheng go!"

"Chang Sheng's matter is too big, it's too challenging to the limits of people's hearts, even if we are the emperor, we dare not open our mouths to let him go."

Zhu Yunxi pulled a small stool, sat down in front of Lao Zhu, and slapped the horse.

"Grandpa, even if the grandson and second uncle don't do anything, won't you still be able to spare the Lu family?"

"Just treat Chang Sheng as the one who kills for you, why not kill for our royal family?"

Old Zhu waved his hand towards Zhu Yunxi after hearing the words.

"Go, go, go away, we're bored now and don't want to talk to you!"

Zhu Yunxi didn't care at all, and stuck to Lao Zhu like a piece of brown candy.

"fine!"

"You review the memorial, the grandson will watch over you!"

After Zhu Yunxi finished saying this, he propped his chin and lay down next to Lao Zhu.

Lao Zhu saw that the grandson was still calm, so he let him go, and continued to work on his own.

After dinner, Lao Zhu wanted to go outside for a stroll, but unexpectedly, his grandson followed him.

Without saying a word, he just stared at him so straightly that Lao Zhu's heart was secretly terrified.

"Why do you always follow us?"

"Why not!"

"If you don't let my second uncle go, I will follow you every day, wherever you go!"

Old Zhu was so entangled by Nisun that he had no choice but to treat him as air and ignore Xiao Nisun.

Old Zhu couldn't take it anymore after sleeping in Qianqing Palace for two days. This grandson would kick him under the bed, not to mention grabbing the quilt!

On the third day, as soon as it was dark, old Zhu Tian ran to the harem with his luggage.

However, what broke him down was that he had already hid in the harem, and the Ni Sun was still following him.

"Why are you still following us?"

"Grandson misses Grandma Guo, can't you come and say hello to Grandma Guo?"

Hearing what Dasun said, Lao Zhu could only speak with a headache.

"Go, go, go!"

"The Changning Palace is in front of you, go and pay your respects to Grandma Guo!"

When Lao Zhu came to Changning Palace, he took his eldest grandson into Changning Palace with one foot, and then he led the people and ran to Concubine Yang's palace.

Concubine Yang was overjoyed when she saw the emperor coming, she hurriedly ordered someone to wash the emperor, and then led the emperor into the mandarin duck tent.

However, when the two were tossing each other in the mandarin duck tent, something happened that broke them down.

"My lord, I want to..."

"it is good!"

"My lord, I still want to..."

Just when Lao Zhu was about to raise his knife and mount his horse again, he suddenly heard a voice from outside the door.

"Grandfather, grandson wants too!"

Lao Zhu collapsed when he heard this sound, picked up the shoes on the ground and smashed them out.

"roll!"
