Chapter 62 Admonishing Zhu Xi

 "Hey, fourth child, you came too quickly. I came just after I saved Mother Chen, and you were one step ahead of me!"

The person who came was none other than the second eldest son, Zhu Xi. Seeing that Zhu Di was already in the house, he couldn't help but be surprised.

"What's weird about this." Behind Zhu Xi, the third child Zhu Fan, wearing a moon-white gown, also stepped into the room. "It must be that the fourth child didn't go to Chen Province and came directly to look for the fifth brother."<

/p>

"He was lectured by Master Song yesterday, how could he still dare to show his face to his mother?"

"You are all here!" Zhu Su was overjoyed.

"Suddenly I was free, and I didn't know how to entertain myself. I remembered that you had been out of the palace for some time, so I thought of coming to play with you." Zhu Fan smiled at him. Zhu Xi also came over and put his arm around Zhu Su's shoulders.

: "You guys, it's so easy to hide here with the elder brother! Let the brothers suffer in the main hall!"

On the surface, they still thought it was because Zhu Su couldn't be trained, and Lao Zhu was furious, so he handed it over to Prince Zhu Biao to teach him.

"Brothers, let alone come to see me... I'm afraid it's because the eldest brother is about to have a baby, so it's a serious matter to come here to congratulate him, right?" Zhu Su said with a smile. "Coming to see me, my little brother, is just incidental, right?

It's as if he came here to see me."

"Hehe, congratulations and looking for you are all business!" Zhu Feng said with a smile. "I wanted to go look for my eldest brother first, but I didn't expect that there were so many people there, so it wouldn't be very interesting, so I came to look for you first.



The brothers were chatting and laughing, and they were having a good time. After a while, Zhu Fan said: "I don't know if there are fewer people over there. Xiangdeng! Go and have a look!"

The old eunuch attending the door responded immediately. After a while, he turned around and reported: "Your Highnesses, His Highness the Crown Prince is still entertaining guests. The one he is currently receiving is the Young Master of the Duke of Ying's Mansion!"

"We are all feeling numb in the buttocks, but the eldest brother is still welcoming us!" Zhu Ping strangely shouted. "Do we have to wait here until sunset? It's a rare day off, isn't it a waste of time!"

"I have an idea!" Zhu Di stood up. "Why don't we go for a walk outside the city? The wind is gentle today, so we can go out and enjoy the cool air. Wouldn't it be better to just sit here?"

As soon as this idea came up, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, and Zhu Su immediately became interested. Xiang Deng, who was standing beside him, was so frightened that he knelt down and said: "Your Highnesses, you can't do that! Your Highnesses are all worth a thousand pieces of gold, how can they be humbled?"

Get out of the city! If there is a good thing, it's not a joke!"

"You old guy, you are so noisy!" What he said angered the King of Qin, Zhu Ping. Zhu Ping flew up and kicked Xiang Deng directly. "How can I, my brothers, discuss matters like you?

Is it your responsibility to speak only after you have killed someone?"

His kick made even Zhu Su stunned. Xiang Deng screamed in pain and was hit in the calf by the table leg, but he did not dare to get up and remained lying on the ground.

The little eunuch Gou'er standing outside heard the sound and wanted to help Xiangdeng. Xiangdeng hurriedly gestured to him. The dog was startled and knelt down at the door.

Jin Wang Zhu Fan glanced at it lightly and continued drinking tea. Yan Wang Zhu Di frowned slightly: "It's enough to rebuke him, so why should my second brother do it himself?"

Zhu Su calmed down, but he didn't expect his second brother to be so angry. When dealing with him on weekdays, he always acted like an honest brother. Although he had heard that he treated his servants harshly, he didn't believe it deep down in his heart.

Recalling what is recorded in the history books of later generations, Zhu Zhen often abused lynching in the palace to entertain his favorite concubine Deng. In the end, the slaves could not bear it anymore and were poisoned to death. From this, it seems that his violent temper was already there in the future.

Such obvious signs!

Xiang Deng was still lying on the ground, shouting that he would die. Zhu Chong was still angry. Zhu Su stood up, lifted Xiang Deng from the ground, and said to the dog at the door: "What are you still standing there for? Why don't you help me quickly?"

Is he going down?"

"Your Highness...a body of gold cannot go to dangerous places..." Xiang Deng still said to himself.

"It doesn't matter. My father has arranged for me to have the guards from the Arch Guard Division, and I will let them accompany me." Zhu Su said. "Besides, my brothers are all future kings of Sai, and they all have to guard a river and a mountain. Even a city.

If you don’t dare to go out, how will you fight the Mongolian Yuan on the grassland in the future?”

"Well said!" Zhu Di praised. "If you are eunuchs, you know how broad-minded a man is!"

Xiang Deng had nothing to say, so he made a confession and let the dog help him down. Zhu Su turned to Zhu Ping and said, "Second brother is too hot-tempered. Even if he is a servant, he shouldn't be treated so harshly.



"What's wrong? I feel bad that your servant was kicked by my brother?" Zhu Xi was still angry. "How can there be a good person in the eunuch? How dare you point fingers at our brothers!"

"That's not what you said." Zhu Su said seriously. "Since I know that he is short-sighted, I just ignore him and don't communicate with him. How can he be violent?"

"I'm not feeling sorry for the servant, but I'm worried about my second brother. Mencius, a Confucian scholar, once said, 'If a ruler treats his ministers like dirt, then his ministers will regard him as a bandit.' In the future, my second brother will also be able to control one side by himself. If

Everyone around me regards you as my enemy, how can I, my brother, feel at ease?"

"Besides, the so-called way of governing subordinates emphasizes both rewards and punishments, and giving both kindness and power. Even if you are training animals, you have to give them a slap in the face, otherwise they will be trampled. What's more, it's a human being?"

"Even if you want to punish, you should also set a clear example, punish it with a public weapon, and make people convinced. Throughout the ages, those who want to achieve success have always needed to win people's hearts. Lynching will only make people more alienated. And they will accumulate hatred day by day.

Come on, if you make people angry, it will be a disaster to the sky: won’t the second brother hear the anger of a common man and splash blood five steps away?”

"Even if you put your own safety first, never do this!"

Zhu Su's face was solemn, and every word he spoke was filled with concern. Zhu Ping, who had turned his head away from him, couldn't help but feel horrified. "Lao Wu, my second brother knows what you are thinking."

"Don't worry, that little guy wouldn't dare to harm your second brother!"

"It's not a question of whether it's harmful or not!" Zhu Su almost collapsed. Just as he was about to say more, he heard Zhu Di interrupt: "Second brother, the fifth brother is trying to persuade you! How can you prevent the people around you from becoming enemies? Only Qian Qian

If you are a thief every day, can you still guard against thieves a thousand days?"

"We are older brothers, don't let younger brothers worry about us!"

"I know, I know. From now on, I will never treat my servants harshly." Zhu Xi waved his hand. Then he touched Zhu Su's head and smiled happily: "The fourth child is right, the fifth child also cares about me. Again.

No matter what, I can’t let Xiao Wu worry about losing my dignity as an older brother!”

Zhu Su always felt that he didn't listen, and wanted to persuade him again, but when he opened his mouth, he was afraid that if he continued to speak, it would have the opposite effect, so he kept silent and said no more.

Later, you can persuade them slowly and subtly.

When Zhu Fan saw that Zhu Su was silent, he came out to smooth things over and said, "That's wrong. Didn't you say you want to leave the city? Fourth child, this is your idea. Do you have any idea where you want to go?"

"I heard that there is a Bifeng Temple outside the West City, which is very efficacious. Why don't we go there?" Zhu Di said.
