Zhu Pingan looked at the old neighbour sitting on the ground waiting to eat melon, helplessly pulled the corners of his mouth, the old neighbour’s attitude undoubtedly shows directly: you are talking about the sky, I will not believe a word.
However, at this time, Zhu Pingan was almost clear about the old neighbour’s temperament, and knew in his heart that the more he explained at this time, the more counterproductive it would be, and it would be better to be truthful and state the truth.
“I don’t dare to hide it from the boss man, the kid’s petition to remit the ambulance is mainly out of the consideration of pleading for his senior brother Yang Jisheng, in order to please the saint and increase the success rate of the plea.”
Thus, Zhu Pingan did not bother to organise a reason, and directly and truthfully told his old neighbour about his initial intention.
“Hmph, you kid is honest.”
Sitting on the ground eating melon stubborn old man would have liked to wait for Zhu Pingan some smallpox messy sophistry, and then righteous face to face to poke Zhu Pingan hypocritical face, just words to teach Zhu Pingan a good lesson, but I did not expect Zhu Pingan will be so honest, which in turn, let his stomach organised a good lesson words held in the stomach, suffocated is very difficult to hold, froze a good while before humming, stroking the white beard, no good face of the road a. But although still have no good face of the old neighbours.
However, although there is still no good face, but on Zhu Pingan’s senses are slightly improved so one or two points.
Although this kid is an ass-kisser, the material of a traitor, but rare honesty, it is not hopeless. In addition, this kid flattered in order to plead for Yang Jisheng, much better than those who flattered for the sake of glory and wealth.
“People are based on sincerity ……”
Zhu Pingan was ready to humble himself for a couple of sentences, but only after saying the beginning was the stubborn old man mercilessly interrupted.
“You still take sincerity as your foundation! You think I’m praising you.”The stubborn old man interrupted Zhu Pingan’s modest words without any good sense of humour, stretching out his thin and bony fingers to point at the roof of the prison above his head, his florid white beard shaking as he lectured, “You can bully the sky just because you plead for Yang Jisheng ah? The eclipse of the sun also, the country will have a disaster, if not rescued, it will endanger the saint, endanger my Ming a thousand generations and the world of the living, you for Yang Jisheng one person, put the world of the living without regard, you think you are great?!”
Err ……
Zhu Pingan choked on his old neighbour’s lecture.
There was no denying that the old neighbour was a typical good comrade who loved his country, his ruler and his people.
It was just that the old neighbour’s worldview was in two very different eras from his own. In the old neighbour’s worldview, the eclipse of the sun, the country will have a disaster, if not rescued will endanger the world’s people; and in their own worldview, the eclipse is just an objective astronomical phenomenon, there is no disaster symbolism. With different worldviews, understanding and behaviour are naturally different. Zhu Pingan really didn’t know how to return to his old neighbour.
“Kid knows it’s wrong.”
Unable to do anything else, Zhu Pingan had no choice but to arch his hand and admit his mistake.
“Hmph, no sincerity.”
The stubborn old man grunted, not very satisfied with Zhu Pingan’s attitude of admitting his mistake, feeling that Zhu Pingan had admitted his mistake too quickly, so quickly that people felt it was a bit perfunctory.
Uh, you are really a capricious old comrade ah, Zhu Pingan looked at his old neighbour with some speechlessness.
“Young people ah, don’t think about taking shortcuts, shortcuts are good to take, but there is no road when you walk. Being a man should be down to earth, one step at a time, although walking slowly, but walking straight and right, never ending.”
The stubborn old man looked up at Zhu Pingan and said meaningfully, half sarcastic and half educational.
Well, yes, what the old neighbour said made sense, there were no shortcuts on the road of life, the only way was to keep your feet on the ground.
“Thank you for the lesson, boss man, the boy has taken it to heart.”
Zhu Pingan bowed his hand to his old neighbour to say thank you, if there is a change, then there is no change, the old neighbour’s life lesson is worthy of his own thanks.
“What’s the use of saying it to me, whether or not you bear it in mind, you have to do it.”The stubborn old man did not have the good sense to say.
Zhu Pingan smiled helplessly.
“Right, let me ask you, you went on the ‘Deception of Heaven’ rustic to plead for Yang Jisheng, what was the result?”Old man Stubborn asked with some concern.
Yang Jisheng is a descendant that old man stubborn admires, Yang Jisheng’s heart, spirit and career, among the descendants he knows, there is no one who can match him, only one Shen Lian can compare with him, but Shen Lian’s career can’t compare to Yang Jisheng. Yang Jisheng’s “remonstrate with the horse market”, as well as his not long ago on the “please kill the thieves Song” two sparse, in his view, almost on the Qin and Han, although the “security policy” can not be over also. Yang Jisheng learning to Han Shangshu, and concentrate on thinking, and want to get up to Da Shun and language, its knowledge of how like, and that people can be a few and almost?
So, Yang Jisheng on the “please kill thieves Song”, the stubborn old man is very appreciated, but also for Yang Jisheng worried, and soon Yang Jisheng was sentenced to death in prison. Stubborn old man in not in prison before also for Yang Jisheng run around to beg for mercy to come, but unfortunately, a little role is not, but there are several people because of pleading for mercy was beaten at the court, after the Jiajing emperor under the oracle, no one dares to plead for Yang Jisheng, dare to plead for Yang Jisheng, and only one of them is Zhu Pingan.
Unfortunately, he did not wait for the results of Zhu Pingan’s speech how, he was because of the eclipse of the speech was under the edict of the prison, and the outside world cut off contact, the edict of the prison officials and the mouth is very strict, they really do not know how the development of things outside.
According to time, according to the last trial of Yang Jisheng judgement results, tomorrow seems to be the execution of Yang Jisheng’s day.
After the stubborn old man was imprisoned, he had nothing to worry about, only Yang Jisheng made him regret a lot.
Although he did not report much hope for Zhu Pingan’s plea for mercy, after all, so many people, so many more influential than Zhu Pingan pleaded for mercy for Yang Jisheng is useless, and how can expect Zhu Pingan how much it.
However, the hope is slim, but also is hope, there is a little slim hope is better than despair.
Therefore, the stubborn old man looked towards Zhu Pingan with a faint hope, and asked Yang Jisheng for news without hope.
“The kid’s ‘deception of the heavens’ after the rustic, the saint’s face was pleased, and ordered the cabinet to prepare a decree to amnesty the whole world! In addition to the ten evils and officials who are corrupt and pervert the law, depending on the severity of the crime, living crimes are pardoned, although the death penalty can not be pardoned, but can also reduce the sentence, can be exempted from the death penalty. Yang Jisheng, the senior brother, was also in this group. Although Yang Jisheng is still being held in the Imperial Prison, his life is no longer in fear for the time being.”
Zhu Pingan pulled the corners of his mouth and softly replied, deliberately adding the words “deceiving the heavens” when mentioning the petition, a small expression of emotion.
“Ah? Good! Good! Good!”
The stubborn old man froze at first hearing the words, could not believe his own ears, and then said three good words in a row with great joy.
