Chapter 72 The true meaning of the court: when you should exert your strength, you must exert your strength; when it should be ruined, it must be ruined.
the other side.
Lin Che was also dumbfounded by Zhu Xi's words.
If this guy wants to express his changes, there is no need to curse his father! Without your father, would you have been treated like this in prison?
He eats and drinks hot food all day long, lives in a luxurious 'private room', and scolds his father whenever he has nothing to do.
Just thinking about it makes me feel aggrieved for this honorable nobleman. How could such a thing be born?
"Cough cough!"
"If you say you're making progress, you're making progress. Why are you cursing your father? Be careful and let him know. He will have to break your legs."
Lin Che coughed twice and couldn't help but tried to persuade her. However, Zhu Ping didn't take it seriously at all and said indifferently:
"Oh! It's okay, just know it!"
"We're not wrong, it's not a big deal when no one is dead!"
Speaking of which, he added:
"The worst case scenario is that we'll get beaten up. It's not the first time anyway. We're strong and can withstand beatings! Let him beat us hard!"
"Mr. Lin, please continue your story!"
After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang next door was so angry that he couldn't help but take off his jade belt, but Zhu Biao stopped him.
Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry that he was breathing heavily. If he hadn't eavesdropped on the lecture, he would have tied up the bastard and returned to the palace to give him a good beating.
Being able to withstand beatings has become an advantage! I'm pissed off! "Okay, don't keep your mouth shut. I think your old man has put you in jail to reflect, and it's all in vain!"
Lin Che shook her head helplessly. Her thoughts were interrupted by this kid's gag. She collected her thoughts before continuing:
"I'm going to give you a small lesson today and teach you how to be an official. Just listen carefully, okay? Don't make excuses at every turn and affect my thinking."
Hearing this, Zhu Xi nodded hurriedly in agreement.
"Actually, there is a common phenomenon in the court, that is, the more people do things, the more wronged they will be."
"The more you do, the more mistakes you make and the more people you offend!"
"The emperor despises you, your colleagues are hostile to you, your friends avoid you, and your family does not understand you."
"In the end, I became a loner!"
"Let's take Liu Bowen as an example."
"Liu Bowen is respected as Zhuge Liang of the time. He assisted the current emperor to win the Ming Dynasty. It can be said that he did his best. When he was ennobled, he was rated as the least successful, and he was deliberately suppressed in the court."
"Do you think he was aggrieved or not?"
Snapped! Zhu Xi slapped the table with his palm, causing even the tea in the teacup to spill out, and said loudly: "Suffocated!"
"It's so damn frustrating!"
Lin Che rolled her eyes at the boy and made a 'Don't get excited' gesture: "That's right, not only is it frustrating, it's even very cowardly."
"If he just retires after his success, then forget it. After all, he served two monarchs and is so old. But the problem is that he didn't run away at all."
"While he was still soaking in the big dye vat in the court, even if he didn't want to join in the slander, the literati in Jiangsu and Zhejiang took the initiative to form the Zhejiang East Group with him as the core, forming a confrontation with the powerful Huaixi Group."
"What happened next?"
Hearing this, Zhu Xi snorted in disgust and said: "It can still be like this!"
"I pretend to be sick at home every day. When I'm not pretending to be sick, I don't work hard and I can't even ask for help. No wonder the emperor didn't treat him well later. He did it on his own!"
Seeing Zhu Xiang fuming, Lin Che rolled her eyes at him: "Yes, you are smarter than him, but you have a bad temper!"
"Just because you have the temper to get into trouble if you don't agree with these three sentences, you will be beaten to death in less than three days in the court!" Zhu Ping's mouth twitched, and he felt a little embarrassed when Lin Che said it, and murmured in a low voice: "It's not that exaggerated!"
"The court will not..."
"Not that much? That's too much!"
Lin Che took a sip of tea and looked serious: "If you enter the court in the future, you must change your hot temper!"
"It's a bit difficult to make you become so versatile all of a sudden, but you have to be more tactful and at least know how to behave."
"This is the minimum requirement for you to enter the court. If you can't do it, then I advise you not to wade into that muddy water, lest you end up with a tragic end."
"Also, you just said that Liu Bowen pretended to be ill, did not work hard, and was not popular with others, but you did not understand the reason behind this."
After hearing this, Zhu Xi couldn't help but sit upright, stretched his neck, and looked extremely serious.
"Liu Bowen actually has his own reasons for doing this. These colleagues in East Zhejiang support him as the leader of East Zhejiang Group, and he has nothing to do."
"After all, he has the highest status in the eyes of his colleagues in eastern Zhejiang, but he doesn't want to be the leader at all, because he knows that the current emperor hates the courtiers forming cliques and forming allies."
"So he had no choice but to often pretend to be sick, work in vain in the court, and deliberately show off himself."
Having said this, Lin Che paused and said seriously:
"It's a pity that Liu Bowen was smart all his life, but he was also confused sometimes! That's why he became what he is now."
"In the court, you should exert your strength, and you have to exert your strength; when you should show off, you have to show off. Instead of blindly avoiding and showing off, this will offend everyone. In the end, even the emperor doesn't want to see you, so what's the good thing?"
If Zhu Ping realized something, he nodded solemnly and continued to listen:
"Therefore, it is normal for the top of the court to not rise in a straight line, but to have twists and turns."
"You must remember that this rising curve is very important to you. You can use it whether it is on the battlefield or in officialdom."
Lin Che paused for a moment, took a sip of tea, and continued: "Don't you just want to go to the battlefield?"
"I plan for you to become a general one day, and you will be granted the title of wolf, and you will return to the court in a majestic manner. You will be welcomed by the people in the city. The emperor will also give you great rewards. You will be named a duke, or even the king of the opposite sex!"
"At this time, you have reached the highest achievement of a military general, just like Xu Da, the great general of the dynasty, and became the leader of the military generals."
"At the same time, you are also facing hostility from the civilian clique."
"What should you do at this time?"
Hearing Lin Che's question, Zhu Ping unconsciously put himself into this role. He frowned, slapped the table and said angrily:
"These son-of-a-bitch civil servants, I was on the front lines killing the enemy and serving the country, bleeding and sweating. They go to court in sedan chairs every day and talk nonsense in the court. Why should they point fingers at me?"
"These people are damned!"
Hearing this, Lin Che shook her head slightly: "Faced with the hostility of civil servants, your way of dealing with it is to ignore it?"
"Yes, didn't Mr. Lin ask me to control my hot temper? I just listen to Mr. Lin and just ignore these vitriolic people!"
"Is not it good?"
"What a fart!"
Lin Che swore at him on the spot: "If you ignore it like this, wouldn't it make this civil servant even more unscrupulous?"
"Obviously you have done nothing and have no other thoughts. You are only thinking about killing the enemy and serving the country, but you are framed like Prince Yue and have a disobedient heart."
"If you are like you and still ignore it, serve your country with all your heart and let the rumors fly."
"Until one day, you were stripped of your military talisman, lost your military power, and were thrown into prison like Prince Yue, and finally given a pot of poisoned wine."
"This is your end!"
