Daming: Mixed in Dangzhi County, Beiping

Two days later.

at night.

In a restaurant on the bank of the Qinhuai River, Zhu Gaosui and a few scholar-looking people stood at the window, looking at the censors who got off the boat, with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

"Since Ma He came back with his fleet, these thieves have been complaining to some gentry in Zhejiang, Guangxi and Fujian, saying that opening the sea would be harmful rather than beneficial to the Ming Dynasty and would cause endless troubles.

In the court hall, he behaves like a high-sounding and honest official serving the country and the people.

As a result, privately, he was a frequent visitor to the flower boats on the Qinhuai River. He was really shameless! "

After Zhu Gaosui finished speaking, a scholar in Tsing Yi with a thin face and hawk-nosed eyes immediately bowed to Zhu Gaosui and flattered him.

"What His Highness said is absolutely true. Each of these censors claim to be honest and upright, as if they are the only loyal ministers and upright officials of the Ming Dynasty in the world, but they are the most shameless, greedy for official position, and selfish!"

Zhu Gaosui smiled faintly, narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the swaying censors in the distance, and said with a smile: "Ji Gang, you are from Zhusheng, you are good at riding and shooting, and have good martial arts. These censors You can beat me!"

"Beat these censors?"

Ji Gang was stunned for a moment, and just as he was about to reply, another scholar next to him had a worried look on his face.

"Your Highness, these are all censors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and high officials in the court. If we beat them in the street..."

Before the man finished speaking, Ji Gang glared at him and bowed to Zhu Gaosui.

"Your Highness, scholars who are like villains should be gentlemen before villains. Can you argue with them first and then take action!"

"Ok?"

Zhu Gaosui glanced at Ji Gang and said: "It's up to you, but if you can't beat them, you can step back and I will do it myself!"

Ji Gang said hurriedly: "Your Highness, please rest assured, the villain will definitely beat them so hard that they won't be able to attend court tomorrow!"

"No, they have to go to court in the morning!"

Zhu Gaosui said with a sneer, "We want them to know that for their own selfish purposes, these thieves want the court to continue to ban the sea, and how many people will be hostile!"

"Little man obeys!"

Ji Gang bowed his hands with a solemn expression, greeted the few scholars beside him, then hurried downstairs and chased after the censors.

"Young Masters and Vice-Presidents..."

The sound was so loud that many passers-by heard it and looked towards Ji Gang and others.

Immediately, they all looked at the censors who were calling out to Ji Gang and others.

The censors suddenly trembled, and they were mostly drunk. Their faces were flushed. They secretly liked to hear these nicknames.

However, they don't like to hear these nicknames here, especially when they smell of rouge and alcohol. If this spreads out, how will they behave?

Could it be that these stupid young scholars in front of me did this on purpose?

Thinking about this, a pot-bellied censor shouted at Ji Gang with anger on his face: "Who are you? Why are you so ignorant and shouting here?"

Ji Gang's eyes suddenly lit up and he shouted excitedly: "This must be Hu Fuxian, I am really a famous name that I have admired for a long time!"

Vice President Hu frowned and glared at Ji Gang.

"Shut up, you guy!"

Ji Gang and others did not seem to have heard, and continued to say loudly: "Hahaha, Vice-Xian Hu often appears in front of his colleagues in the court, and even in front of His Majesty. He is upright and caring about the country and the people. How come he has been talking to several young ministers and deputy ministers recently? Just get on the boat?

Does your body still smell so much of rouge and gouache? This is with the girl on the flower boat...

Is it possible that, despite how honest you all say on weekdays, you actually don’t know how many acres of land you have hidden in your family? "

"That's probably the case. Several young ministers and deputy governors have great power in the Metropolitan Procuratorate. If they are greedy, they can get tens of thousands of acres of family property."

"Isn't it true that these people are like this? They claim to be honest and upright all day long, but in fact, they have greedy countless acres of land in private.

In the past few days, I have been jointly protesting with the gentry from Zhejiang, Fujian and Guangxi to prevent His Majesty from opening the sea, because I am worried that if the sea ban is lifted, the common people can go to sea to make money without being squeezed by you, and no one will farm for you. Bar! "

"Sure enough, you, the Young Secretary Xian and the Deputy Xian, have the official position of the Censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, which brings you prestige. Whether it is white or black is up to you..."

Hu Du and Yu Feng, several censors, were shocked and angry when they heard this.

"What are you talking about?"

"If you keep talking nonsense, I will tear your mouth apart?"

"How can Vice Hu and Yu Shao Si Xian set up private prisons?"

"Who are you?"

"They are just a group of scholars who want to see what kind of faces the censors look like while they are shouting about caring about the country and the people, and at the same time they are engaged in drunkenness and corruption!"

"How dare you insult me ​​like this?"

"A group of shameless censors are a disgrace to us scholars and should be scolded!"

"Everyone, come and take a look. This is Hu Fuxian, whose real name is Hu Du, from Fujian...this is Yu Shaosixian, whose real name is Yu Feng, who is from Linjiang, Jiangxi, and this Zhang Shaosixian..."                                                     � Shut up now!"

"Why are you so afraid of being known?"

"Come here, stop the mouths of these scholars quickly! ...Don't let them say another word!"

"Teach these arrogant scholars a lesson!"

"Yes, sir..."

Hu Du, Yu Feng and several servants of the censor immediately rushed towards Ji Gang and the others.

"Hit someone?"

"Hu Du and Yu Feng, you are pretending to be the censor of the Ming Dynasty, and you want to beat people even if you can't say it..."

"Help!"

What Hu Du and Yu Feng didn't know was that the teachers and students in front of them were not serious scholars. Was Ji Gang, the leader, a bad scholar who was expelled from the school by his teacher for speaking heresy?

Each one of them is not only a rogue, but also has extraordinary skills.

Soon, they discovered that their strong servants, two against one, were no match for these scholars, and even managed to attack them!

He suddenly panicked, but unfortunately he was drunk. He wanted to run, but before he could even take two steps, he was knocked to the ground.

"Who dares to hit me?"

"I am the royal censor of the dynasty. How dare you commit such a crime?"

"I made the mistake of waiting. Please be gentle, Mr. Secretary Xian and Deputy Xian!"

"Ah...shameless!"

"Hu Fu Xian, Yu Shao Si Xian and I are all scholars, how could you be so ruthless?"

"what……"

"It hurts me so much!"

The whole street suddenly became chaotic.

All around, passers-by were standing there, watching with interest.

Some scholars insulted the imperial censor in the street and even got into a fight. This kind of good thing was a strange thing in the Ming Dynasty!

As for who was beating whom in the crowd, they couldn't see clearly in the dark sky.

However, those censors had more than a dozen strong servants, all of them big and thick.

And those few scholars, although they look strong, are actually scholars. Surrounded by those strong servants, it should be those poor scholars who are being beaten!

Hearing that sound, he was beaten badly!

For a long time.

The censor's servants finally got tired of beating them and staggered, but the scholars seized the opportunity and broke free.

These scholars looked very pitiful, their hair was disheveled, and their clothes were torn and in tatters.

How pitiful!

Ugh……

Everyone around them couldn't help but feel pity on their faces. These scholars were brave, but they were a little arrogant and reckless. How could they scold these censors in the street, when these censors had just gotten off the flower boat.

"Today we finally saw the viciousness of Hu Fuxian and Yu Shaosi Xian. Even if we die, we will sue Your Majesty for these thieves who are just trying to gain fame!"

"It hurts so much that I've been waiting..."

"Run!"

Ji Gang and others came out of the siege of the healthy servants, shouted angrily, and ran away.

Just as those healthy servants were about to pursue him, they lost sight of him and quickly returned to see their master.

Hu Du and Yu Feng, the censors, were lying on the ground now, with disheveled hair, bruised noses and swollen faces, and tattered clothes. They were even worse than Ji Gang and others who had just ran out!

"The beating was so severe. It seems that when I go to court tomorrow, I will have to face all the officials with a bruised nose and a bruised nose!"

"Tsk tsk..."

Zhu Gaosui, who had come around quietly at some time, took a look at Hu Du and Yu Feng and several censors inside, sighed, and walked out.

"Who is out there making fun of you?"

Hu Du and Yu Feng, who were humiliated and sitting on the ground doubting their lives, suddenly struggled to get up and stared at the people around them with red eyes.

The crowd of people watching the excitement naturally backed away.

The darkness was so chaotic that even if Hu Du and Yu Feng stood on tiptoes, they couldn't see which of the thieves was mocking them, so they could only jump in anger.

After Zhu Gaosui left for a long time, a group of government officials ran over in a panic.

However, Zhu Gaosui had already left with Ji Gang and others.
