After learning the news that Yang Jisheng had been temporarily spared from the death penalty, the stubborn old man excitedly said three good words in a row, and along with that, his senses towards Zhu Pingan had been slightly raised by so much on top of the original base.
Although not yet out of the negative, ……There really weren’t many people who could get positive comments from the stubborn old man.
“Didn’t you kid just pat the horse’s arse and shoot the saint’s dragon’s face with great joy, how will you fall into this imperial prison? Is not the ‘deception of the sky zhang疏’被 impeached, the saint woke up, you will be retribution? Hmph, I told you, young man, you can’t take shortcuts, you’ll run out of road as you walk, did it come true?”
Although the stubborn old man’s senses towards Zhu Pingan had improved by a few points, but his lips were unforgiving as always.
“No.”
Zhu Pingan shook his head breathlessly.
“No? Then why?”The stubborn old man got curious, it was reasonable to say that this kid had only shot the Emperor’s dragon’s face, if he hadn’t been impeached for ‘deceiving the heavens’, how would he not have ended up in the imperial prison ah.
“It is true that I was caused by being impeached, but it was not the ‘Deception of Heaven’.”Zhu Pingan and his old neighbour separated themselves from the fence, found a dry piece of ground, padded it with some hay, and then sat down on his butt.
“Impeached for what?”The stubborn old man was even more curious.
“Before my senior brother Yang Jisheng submitted the impeachment sermon, I went to visit my senior brother and made a few suggestions on the sermon. I didn’t realise that Zhou Fangzheng, an official of the Section and Dao at that time, was also at my senior brother’s residence, and avoided me and hid in his bedroom. This morning, Zhou Fangzheng to the saint’s report to expose and prosecute me, impeaching me to help my senior brother Yang Jisheng to modify the zangshen, conspire to slander Yan Pavilion, blackmail Prince order decree, non-consideration of the saint’s ……So, I was apprehended here.”Zhu Pingan leaned against the fence, lazily stretched his waist and slowly said, after being denounced and uncovered by this guy Zhou Fangzheng, there was no need to hide this matter.
“What?”
The stubborn old man next door looked like he was struck by lightning, shocked and pulled down a handful of his beard, grimacing in pain.
“Yang kid’s zhengshi was you who counselled?!”
Shocked and dumbfounded, the stubborn old man reached through the fence and wrenched Zhu Pingan’s face over, coming up close as if he wanted to reacquaint himself with Zhu Pingan. In the eyes of the stubborn old man, Zhu Pingan s evaluation is climbing rapidly, instantly reaching 0 from the negative score area and then continuing to climb upwards ……
You old comrade, you shouldn’t be an old comrade, right?
Zhu Pingan swished back.
“What are you hiding for?!”The stubborn old man’s disgruntled moustache blew and his eyes widened, “The old man can still eat you.”
Zhu Pingan smiled resentfully, what am I hiding from, it’s not that your old man just overreacted and made a misjudgement.
“Old man asked you, you kid give me a truthful answer, Yang kid’s zhengshi, really you counselled?”The stubborn old man asked next, a pair of eyes blinking without blinking staring at Zhu Pingan, not missing any point of micro-expression.
“It can’t be said that it was a counsellor, although I made a few suggestions at that time, but Senior Brother Yang Jisheng did not adopt my suggestions.”
Zhu Pingan shook his head and truthfully returned.
“What suggestions did you make?”The stubborn old man pursued.
“I mainly made two suggestions, one was to suggest that senior brother delete the remarks in the zhengshi that involved His Majesty, and the other was to suggest that senior brother delete the ‘or ask the two kings’ remarks in it.”Zhu Pingan returned.
“Hey …… if Yang kid listened to your words, it wouldn’t be so ……”
The stubborn old man listened to Zhu Pingan’s advice and sat withered in place, despondent for a long time, before sighing heavily.
Or ask the second king ah!
Yang kid is planted on this sentence, because of this sentence was convicted, if at that time Yang Jisheng listened to this kid’s advice and deleted this sentence, perhaps the outcome of the matter will be very different.
“If senior brother was willing to listen to my advice, he would not be Yang Jisheng anymore.”Zhu Pingan couldn’t help but sigh as he thought of the scene at that time.
The cell was quiet all of a sudden, with only the sighs of the two men echoing in the corners of the deep and horrible imperial prison.
However, thinking that Yang Jisheng had been spared from the death penalty, the stubborn old man was instantly refreshed and tapped the bars, saying to Zhu Pingan, “Your name is Zhu Pingan right, old man remembers you, if you can get out in the future, old man will buy you a drink.”
“Thank you boss man for looking up to me, my boy is honoured.”
Zhu Pingan arched his hand and returned, then asked curiously, “After chatting for so long, I still don’t know how the boss man is addressed?”
“The old man is the Secretary of the Imperial Servant Temple, Yang Most.”The stubborn old man stroked his beard and returned.
“So it’s Boss Man Yang, the kid is disrespectful.”When Zhu Pingan heard this, he hurriedly got up and bowed his hand in salute. The Secretary of the Imperial Servant Temple was a great official from the third rank, his official position was higher than his own, and he was a senior, so naturally, he had to be courteous.
While bowing to meet the salute, Zhu Pingan flew through his mind, making sure that he had not heard of this person, Yang Most, in modern times, and thought that it was a character that had been submerged in the river of history.
“You brat, where did you get so much etiquette.”The stubborn old man waved his hand.
“Elder Yang, how did you get into the Imperial Prison?”Zhu Pingan asked curiously.
“The old man is also because of a zhengshi.”When the stubborn old man said this, he could not help but glare at Zhu Pingan again.
Erm ……
Why are you glaring at me?
Zhu Pingan inexplicably scratched the back of his head, “You old man was also impeached?”
“Old me stands straight and walks right, who dares to impeach old me?!”The stubborn old man blew his beard, then slowly said, “On the day of the solar eclipse, the old man also put up a petition, admonishing His Holiness for routine ambulance.”
Khan.
So that’s how it is, Zhu Pingan understands at this moment why Boss Yang had such a strong opinion of himself in the beginning.
The position is different ah.
The same is the solar eclipse, himself on a “routine exemption ambulance” zhang疏, and the boss man Yang on a very different “routine ambulance” zhang疏, and then the person was locked up in this imperial prison.
However, just admonishing the rescue words, also not to be locked up in the imperial prison, Zhu Pingan puzzled to look at the old neighbour.
“In addition to admonishing for routine rescues, the old man also admonished His Holiness to focus on government and stop cultivating immortality and alchemy.”
The stubborn old man stroked his beard and added another sentence under Zhu Pingan’s puzzled gaze.
Advising His Holiness to stop cultivating immortality and alchemy ……
Upon hearing this, Zhu Pingan looked at his old neighbour as if he had been struck by lightning, dumbstruck, the corners of his mouth twitching twice, unable to speak.
Your old man is also too raw, right? No, more than raw, it is simply a raw mess.
Don’t want to zangfu xiu xuan!
This is the Ming officialdom ranked first iron law, no one knows no one knows, no one who does not bear in mind.
Your old man even dared to advise His Majesty not to cultivate Xuanxian alchemy again!
No wonder your old man will be imprisoned in the imperial prison, to be honest, just be imprisoned in the imperial prison, are counted as your old man’s life.
