Rise From the Humble

  Chapter 1067 Wayward old comrade

  Zhu Pingan looked at the old neighbor who was sitting on the ground waiting to eat melons, and twitched the corner of his mouth helplessly. The attitude of the old neighbor undoubtedly directly showed: Even if you talk about hype, I will not believe a word.

  However, at this time, Zhu Ping'an had almost figured out the old neighbor's temperament, and he knew in his heart that the more he explained at this time, the more it would backfire. It would be better to seek truth from facts and state truthfully.

   "Don't dare to hide the truth from the boss. The boy's remonstrance to avoid rescue is mainly out of the consideration of interceding for senior brother Yang Jisheng, in order to please the Holy Majesty and increase the success rate of interceding."

  So, Zhu Pingan didn't bother to organize his reasons, and directly confessed his original intention to his old neighbor in a down-to-earth manner.

   "Hmph, you are honest."

The stubborn old man sitting on the ground originally wanted to wait for Zhu Ping'an's extravagant sophistry, and then he would expose Zhu Ping's hypocrisy face to face, and teach Zhu Pingan a lesson, but he didn't expect Zhu Pingan to be so sincere. It made him suffocate the well-organized lesson words in his stomach, and it was very uncomfortable to hold back. After a while, he snorted, stroked his gray beard, and said something embarrassing.

  However, although he still has a bad face, his sense of Zhu Ping'an has improved a little bit.

  Although this kid is a sycophant and the material of a treacherous minister, he is rare and honest, and he is not hopeless. In addition, this kid is flattering to plead for Yang Jisheng, which is much better than those who flatter for the sake of glory and wealth.

   "People are based on sincerity"

  Zhu Ping'an was about to say a few words of modesty, but he was mercilessly interrupted by the stubborn old man after he started speaking.

"You are still based on sincerity! You think I am praising you." The stubborn old man interrupted Zhu Pingan's modest words angrily, stretched out his bony fingers and pointed to the top of the prison, and the gray beard shook his lesson He said, "You can deceive the heavens by pleading for Yang Jisheng?! The eclipse of the sun will also cause disasters in the country. If you don't rescue it, it will endanger the Holy One, my Ming Dynasty and the people of the world. For Yang Jisheng alone, you will set the world up." Do you think you are great?!"

Uh.

  Zhu Ping'an was choked by the old neighbor's lesson.

   It is undeniable that the old neighbor is a typical good comrade who is patriotic, loyal to the monarch and the people.

   It's just that the old neighbor's worldview and his own are in two completely different eras. In the old neighbor's world view, a solar eclipse is also a disaster for the country, and if it is not rescued, it will endanger the people of the world; but in my own world view, a solar eclipse is just an objective astronomical phenomenon, and there is no symbolic meaning of disaster . Different worldviews lead to different cognitions and behaviors. Zhu Pingan really didn't know how to get back to his old neighbor.

   "The kid knew he was wrong."

   In desperation, Zhu Pingan had no choice but to admit his mistake.

   "Hmph, no sincerity."

  The stubborn old man snorted, and was not very satisfied with Zhu Pingan's attitude of admitting his mistake. He felt that Zhu Pingan admitted his mistake too quickly, which made people feel a little perfunctory.

  Uh, you are really a wayward old comrade, Zhu Pingan looked at the old neighbor speechlessly.

"Young people, don't think about taking shortcuts. Shortcuts are easy to take, but if you walk, you will lose your way. To be a person, you must keep your feet on the ground and take one step at a time. Although you walk slowly, you can walk straight and straight. There is no end to it. .”

  The stubborn old man looked up at Zhu Pingan, and said meaningfully, half ironic and half educational.

  Well, yes, what the old neighbor said is very reasonable. There are no shortcuts on the road of life, only down-to-earth.

   "Thank you for your lesson, sir, I will keep it in mind."

  Zhu Ping'an bowed his hands to his old neighbor to thank him, if there is something, he can change it if he doesn't, and encourage him if he doesn't, this life lesson from the old neighbor is worthy of his thanks.

   "What's the use of telling me, whether you keep it in your heart, you have to do it." The stubborn old man said unhappily.

  Zhu Ping'an smiled helplessly.

   "By the way, let me ask you, you went to the "Baiting Heaven" to intercede for Yang Jisheng, what happened?" the stubborn old man asked with some concern.

  Yang Jisheng is the younger generation that the stubborn old man admires very much. Among the younger generation he knows, Yang Jisheng's determination, integrity and career are second to none. There is only one Shen Lian who can be compared with him, but Shen Lian's career cannot compare to Yang Jisheng. Yang Jisheng's "Admonition to the Horse Market" and the second book "Please Zhu Thief Song" that he published not long ago, in his opinion, almost surpassed the Qin and Han Dynasties, although "Policy for Public Security" could not pass. Yang Jisheng was happy to learn from Han Shangshu, so he concentrated his mind and thought, and wanted to talk to Shun, how is his knowledge similar, and he can almost reach it?

  So, after Yang Jisheng appeared in "Please Kill the Thief Song", the stubborn old man admired it very much, but he was worried about Yang Jisheng. Sure enough, Yang Jisheng was sentenced to death soon. The stubborn old man was still begging for Yang Jisheng before he was imprisoned, but unfortunately, it didn't work at all. On the contrary, several people were beaten at the court staff for pleading. After Emperor Jiajing issued a verbal order, no one came Dare to plead for Yang Jisheng, Zhu Pingan is the only one who dares to plead for Yang Jisheng.

It's a pity that I didn't wait for the results of Zhu Ping'an's memorial. I was sent to prison because of the memorial played on the solar eclipse, and I was cut off from the outside world. How is the development.

  Based on time, according to the verdict of the last court trial of Yang Jisheng, tomorrow seems to be the day to execute Yang Jisheng.

  After the stubborn old man was imprisoned, he had nothing to worry about, only Yang Jisheng made him feel sorry.

  Although he didn’t have much hope for Zhu Pingan’s intercession memorabilia, after all, it was useless for so many people and people more influential than Zhu Pingan to intercede for Yang Jisheng, so how could he expect much from Zhu Pingan.

  However, no matter how slim the hope is, it is still hope. A little hope is better than despair.

  So, the stubborn old man looked at Zhu Ping'an with little hope, and asked about Yang Jisheng's news without any hope.

"After the boy's "deception" memorial was delivered, the sage Longyan was very happy, and ordered the cabinet to draft an amnesty for the world! Except for heinous crimes and officials who corrupted the law, the living sinners will be pardoned depending on the severity of the crime. Although the deadly sins cannot be pardoned, but The sentence can also be commuted, and the death penalty can be exempted. Brother Yang Jisheng is also in the ranks. Although Yang Jisheng is still detained in the imperial prison, there is no danger of his life for the time being."

  Zhu Pingan twitched the corners of his mouth, and replied softly. When he mentioned the memorial, he deliberately added the word "deceitful" to express his emotions a little.

   "Huh?! Good! Good! Good!"

  The stubborn old man was stunned when he heard the words at first, he couldn't believe his ears, and then he was overjoyed and said three good words again and again.
