After thinking about it for a long time, Zhu Yurao personally went to the Criminal Punishment Department under the Chang'an Ministry of Justice to sue Zuo Maodi.
The reason for suing Zuo Maodi is that this person behaved improperly and was spying on a good family.
As a result, Zuo Maodi was taken to the Criminal Division for questioning by the police.
Facing the young official of the Criminal Punishment Department, Zuo Maodi smiled and said nothing, fully accepting Zhu Yuluo's accusation.
So, Zuo Maodi was charged with disorderly conduct and was imprisoned for three days as a warning to others.
When Huang Zongxi heard that Zuo Maodi was being detained, he immediately ran to visit his old friend, only to find that his old friend was having a great time playing cards with the prisoners in the same cell.
Seeing his old friend coming, he handed the cards to others, removed the grass roots hanging from his ears, came to the prison door and said, "Why are you here?"
Huang Zongxi He said angrily: "I heard that you Zuo Maodi was spying on the good family's mansion day and night. Out of curiosity, I hurriedly came to see if you had been impersonated."
Zuo Maodi said: "Why don't you think that I was wronged?"
Huang Zongxi said: "If it were someone else's house, I would still have this doubt. After I heard that you have been spying on the Zhu family's mansion, I think you can do this kind of thing."
Zuo Maodi smiled and said: "You people have forgotten Zhu Mingxia, but I still haven't forgotten it."
Huang Zongxi. Said: "Now it is Mr. Zhu who is suing you for spying on the widow's house. Do you know how bad this reputation is?"
Zuo Maodi smiled and said: "My heart is like the bright moon shining on the river."
Huang Zongxi sighed and said: "Now, people think that you Zuo Maodi is spying on the beautiful widows in the Zhu family's mansion."
Zuo Maodi sighed and said: "For the sake of You have reached the point where you are willing to desecrate yourself to survive. Huang Zongxi, do you really not have any old feelings for Zhu Ming?"
"They are living well, what are you doing to provoke them? After a few years of silence, when the world forgets about Zhu Ming, these people will slowly come back to life. If you dive in like this, you are really not helping them, but harming them.
Me. I don't believe that with your Zuo Maodi eyes, you can't see that the Lantian Imperial Court's treatment of this family is to treat them coldly and allow them to live. However, they must forget their former honorable status. If they can't pass this level, then be tolerant. They will not let them go.
Zhu Yuluo is doing very well now."
Zuo Maodi said: "I can't raise an army to fight against Yun Zhao, and I don't want to fight again. The Ming Dynasty is about to calm down. I just want to do my best for Zhu Ming and repay the kindness of the past."
Huang Zongxi said with a smile: "You are just a man in white, and you are just two policemen. If you can be imprisoned, how can you help them?"
Zuo Maodi smiled and said: "It is not an injustice to be imprisoned this time. A certain family did spy on the Zhu family's mansion, and it was only for three days. ,The Sentencing Department of the Cautionary Punishment Department was lenient and lived up to the name of Cautionary Punishment. "
Huang Zongxi said: "When you were the county magistrate in Hancheng, you used Lantian's methods to govern Hancheng. The people there are still grateful to you..."
Zuo Maodi laughed and said: "What else?
Huang Zongxi said: "Also, you are already a mature Lantian official. As long as you are willing, I can guarantee you that you can continue to be an official in Lantian and continue to benefit the people." ”
“What else? "
"Also, when your official position in Lantian is large enough, you have enough voice, and you can freely express your opinions at the People's Congress and be recognized by everyone, things will change. There have been big changes.
At that time, if your opinions were respected by more than half of the representatives, believe me, even Yun Zhao could not overturn the resolution of the People's Congress. "
Zuo Maodi laughed and said: "Imperial power, imperial power, the right to decapitate! The People's Congress opposed Yun Zhao's opinions, which would only bring disaster to more people. "
Huang Zongxi also laughed and said: "The Jie dog barks and Yao is talking about people like you. ”
“A certain family is a jie dog? "
"What is the difference between Zhu Youjian's atrocities and Jie's? They are all kings of subjugation. They call you a Jie dog. What's wrong with that?
Yun Zhao intended to have one emperor for eternity. He didn’t care whether he killed a group of women and children who had lost their country. I even suspected that, except for the fact that the Ministry of Supervision was still monitoring the Zhu family’s residence, Yun Zhao Zhao had probably forgotten the existence of this family. "
"This is impossible! "
"Is there anything impossible? The things that the Lantian Imperial Court is discussing the most now are not matters within Lantian, or even within the Ming Dynasty. They are already considering how to prevent and expel the Russians from Penetration from the north, and the construction of customs gates on the Straits of Malacca.
In the near future, the great living Buddha from Uzang will come to Yushan again to lecture on sutras and uphold the Dharma. Wise men from Japan will also come from thousands of miles away, and they will also revise and read the Buddhist code of law in Yushan.
The Great Living Buddha Mo Rigen on the grassland has already preached that wherever there are shepherds, it is a Buddhist country, and wherever there is the sound of Buddha, it is the residence of the Chinese.
Yun Zhao now also puts forward the idea of Chinese people. He proposed that the Han people are the eldest sons of China, and the other ethnic groups are the other children of China. As long as those who agree with this concept are Chinese, they are Chinese. I am a Ming Dynasty person.
You will enjoy the protection of the Ming Dynasty's laws and the protection of the Ming Dynasty's army... everyone lives in a big family loving each other.
Brother Zhongji, in front of this big world, what do the mere women and children of Zhu Ming mean?
Brother Zhongji, this is the big world where 'the sun and the moon shine, illuminating the Ming Dynasty'. To truly realize this big world, we need all of us to put in enough efforts. Talents like you are here to Several women and children are ready to give up this life, how stupid! ”
In blueTian was in prison, so naturally there was nothing good to eat. Each person had three huge millet buns every day, and the cooks who made these buns didn't cook them well. Sometimes they would find bugs or leaves, even rat droppings, in them. Not uncommon either.
Since Huang Zongxi left, Zuo Maodi has not played any more cards. Although he likes this kind of game very much, after listening to Huang Zongxi's explanation, this thing is not so fun.
Zuo Maodi, who was eating steamed buns, spit out a complete leaf from his mouth and continued to chew the steamed buns. At this time, a terrifying storm was blowing in his mind.
After great hardships, Taizu of the Ming Dynasty drove away the Mongolian and Yuan rulers, and returned the clear sky to the Han people...
Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty spent his whole life fighting before driving away the Mongolian and Yuan rulers. After arriving in Mobei, they did not dare to go south to herd horses...
The eunuch Sanbao led a vast fleet and made several voyages to the West to declare the power of the Ming Dynasty. For a time, all the countries came to the court, and everyone who did not worship...
p>The next Ming Dynasty should have embarked on a more glorious tomorrow... Unfortunately, everything came to an abrupt end.
Whether it is Wang Yangming or Zhang Juzheng, although they are both heroes of the whole life, their hard work can only make the Ming Dynasty appear bright for a short time, and then they will eventually be swallowed up by darkness.
It’s not that Zuo Maodi didn’t know the shortcomings of the Ming Dynasty. He once thought about correcting them. He wrote to the emperor countless times to speak out about the court’s paralysis. However, he wrote hopeful letters again and again, and was scolded again and again... …
Zuo Maodi found that his heartbeat was pounding. This feeling was the same as when he wrote a letter for the first time after taking charge of the job. It made his blood boil and he couldn't control himself.
"Let me out!"
Zuo Maodi threw away the few millet steamed buns he had on hand, desperately shook the prison railings and shouted outside.
A bucket of cold water was thrown at him, making him wet all over. < /p>
If you feel uncomfortable, we will play cards and endure it. Although the yellow steamed buns here are not delicious, they are full.
Even if you miss the widow across from you, no matter what. Wait for a day, and then my brother will teach you a peeping method from Yushan Academy, which will ensure that you can have a good time."
Zuo Maodi, who was covered in flesh and still holding the railing with both hands, turned his head with difficulty. Looking at this shameless person, he said: "The method from Yushan Academy?"
Seeing that Zuo Maodi, a scholar, seemed to be interested, the prisoner put down the yellow steamed bun and said: "Use a mirror, use a few You can see clearly even when you turn in the mirror."
Zuo Maodi gritted his teeth and said, "What did you do to get in here?"
The prisoner chuckled: "Just like you, we are all good brothers who can't help but see beautiful women."
Zuo Maodi's body trembled, and his eyes glanced at the cell where he lived together for two days.Those people asked in a trembling voice: "All of them?"
The prisoner said in surprise: "If you don't come in with the same crime, wouldn't you be beaten to death? But to be honest, if you are like There are really not many scholars coming in.
When everyone goes out, please look after each other and agree that if anyone can enter Mingyue Tower, they must call me! ”
"The guards at Mingyue Tower are so powerful that they will break your legs!" Another prisoner said softly. Judging from the way he moved his lame leg, he must have been severely beaten by the guards at Mingyue Tower.
Zuo Maodi tried his best to calm down. He had a bright moon in his heart. Although he didn't care about the misunderstanding, his pride as a senior scholar made him really unable to talk to these shameless people. The disciples continue to be trapped in a room.
So, he once again held the railing with both hands and shouted loudly: "I surrender, I surrender, I have killed people..."
This time, the guards did not splash him with water; Instead, after shackling him, he was escorted by four guards directly to the heavily guarded prison cell.
This scene left several immoral criminals stunned.
Until Zuo Maodi was escorted away, the prisoner who claimed to have learned the peeping method of Yushan Academy murmured to himself: "This is a role model for people in my generation. I would rather not see a woman for a day." Die!"
The other prisoners also raised their thumbs and cheered for Zuo Maodi.
When Pei Zhong reported the tragedy of Zuo Maodi to Yun Zhao, Yun Zhao was meeting Xu Wuxiang.
The capital has been completely taken over, and an experienced and important minister should be sent to take charge.
After choosing, Xu Wu wanted to be the best, and Xu Wu wanted to find a more important position to prove that he was no worse than Zhang Guozhu because he failed to challenge the position of Prime Minister, so he handed over in a hurry. After taking official duties in Hanzhong, he returned to Lantian.
"People in the capital are in panic now. At this time, I need a former Ming official as my deputy. I think Zuo Maodi is very suitable."
Yun Zhao said with a smile. : "This person is one of the few officials in Zhu Ming who can be directly used. He is also capable enough. I agree with your suggestion. However, since you want to use this person, then his ideological education The job should also fall on you."
Xu Wuxiang shook his head and said: "I have a bright future, and I can't risk my reputation for an unrelated person. It doesn't mean that Huang Zongxi is willing to do it for me. Will he be the guarantee?
Let him be the guarantee. ”
