Chapter 80: Useless is a scholar

The case of Yu's father and son has been turbulent, and everyone is waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang's next move. If he uses this to restart the Hu Weiyong case, everyone will definitely be in danger. God knows how many people will lose their heads this time.

However, what everyone did not expect was that the palace had been very quiet in recent days, and no news about the Yu father and son had been heard. Even the previously active Jinyiwei suddenly stopped, which made many people wonder, was His Majesty changing his temperament and preparing to make this matter smaller and not pursue it again?

However, Li Jie knew that the reason why Zhu Yuanzhang didn't move now was because he focused on King Tan Zhu Zi. Calculated the time, and both imperial edicts should have been sent to Changsha. I don't know if he could stop Zhu Zi from burning himself?

Li Jie still hopes to save Zhu Zi in his heart, not just for his own contribution, but if Zhu Zi dies, Lao Zhu will definitely go crazy. With Lao Zhu's psychology, my son is dead, why don't you die?

Of course, even if Zhu Zi is not dead, Old Zhu will still raise the butcher knife, but the force of the butcher knife may fall down is smaller, and it may make some innocent people escape, such as Li Jie's parents and sisters.

The morning class was over, and the record of the Grand Historian that Huang Zicheng had been taught before was over. Now, a Grand Secretary named Xu has been given a lecture. Compared with Huang Zicheng, this Grand Secretary Xu is much more normal. He teaches lectures just by teaching, never brings private goods, and treats Zhu Yunyu and Zhu Yunwen equally, which makes Zhu Yunyu much more serious when listening to the class in the morning.

Grand Secretary Xu left with his book in his arms, and Li Jie and Zhu Yunxiu immediately packed up their things and prepared to leave the palace. However, Zhu Yunwen next to him suddenly snorted coldly, "I don't do my job every day, I really don't know what my father thinks?"

"Who do you say is not doing your job properly?" Zhu Yunxiu was no longer the weak person he used to be. He immediately glared at Zhu Yunwen and questioned him when he heard this.

"What's wrong with you? I'm your elder brother, I'm already responsible for discipline!" Zhu Yunwen also slapped the table and said furiously. He never took Zhu Yunxi seriously, but some recent situations made him feel intimidated, and he even disliked Zhu Yunxi even more.

"You..." Zhu Yunxiu said in a silly manner, not knowing how to refute it for a while. After all, Zhu Yunwen is indeed his brother, even if he is only one year older.

"What? You have nothing to say. You are only aware of running out of the palace every day and don't care about your studies at all. What's the difference between you and those playboys who only know how to eat, drink and have fun?" Zhu Yunwen not only studied well, but also spoke very neatly. He scolded Zhu Yunyu in a few words.

Zhu Yunxi was so angry that his whole body was trembling, but he didn't know how to refute it. At this time, Li Jie next to him finally couldn't stand it and said, "Your Highness went out of the palace to get the favor of His Majesty, and he personally took charge of two workshops. Some time ago, he helped the prince count the accounts of the treasury. Are these all unjust jobs?"

Li Jie's words also suddenly woke Zhu Yunxi up, and he immediately straightened his chest and said, "Yes, now I have helped my father. I don't know what else you can do besides studying. As the saying goes, "It's useless to be a scholar. I hope you will take it as a warning to me!"

Zhu Yunwen was just so angry that he was not merciless when scolding others now, especially the saying "A scholar is useless" made Zhu Yunwen's face turn red. In his heart, reading is the most sacred and noble act, but it was destroyed by Zhu Yunwen like this, which was extremely humiliating!

"Okay! OK! You dare to talk back now. Mr. Huang is indeed right. You will only learn these useless techniques when you leave the palace, and you will suffer a great loss sooner or later!" Zhu Yunwen said as he shook his sleeves and was about to leave. With Li Jie helping Zhu Yunsheng, he could not argue with them at all.

However, just as Zhu Yunwen walked to the door, he didn't expect that someone came in outside, and he also plunged into the other person's arms, which made him even more annoyed. He was about to curse, but when he looked up, he found that he was hit by his father Zhu Biao, which immediately calmed down as if he had been poured into a basin of cold water.

"Father forgive me, my son is rude!" Zhu Yunwen immediately saluted Zhu Biao.

"It's okay, Yunwen, where are you going so angry? Could it be that you two are quarreling again?" Zhu Biao said, looking at Zhu Yunwen with a red face, and Zhu Yunwen with a proud look on his face, and immediately guessed the reason.

"Father, my second brother went out of the palace all day long and learned some useless techniques. Instead, he threw the saint's avenue aside. My son was afraid that he would go on a wrong path, so he taught a lesson. As a result, he not only refused to listen, but also scolded me, I...I..."

Zhu Yunwen finally showed a grievance expression on his face at the end. It doesn't matter if he quarreled, but he can still complain. With his experience, his father will definitely stand on his side, after all, his words make sense.

However, what Zhu Yunwen did not expect was that Zhu Biao coughed dryly, and then said to Zhu Yunwen with a serious expression: "Yunwen, don't talk nonsense. What Yunhe learned is still very useful. Even your emperor's grandfather personally issued an order to ask the Ministry of Revenue to send some officials to teach him by Yunhe!"

"Father, what are you saying? The officials of the Ministry of Revenue want me to teach me?" Zhu Yunyu, who was behind, also walked forward with surprise when he heard this. Zhu Yunwen next to him was completely confused. He just said that Zhu Yunyu had learned useless skills, but now the Ministry of Revenue has sent someone to learn from him. How is this possible?

"Yes, today your emperor's decree has just issued an order to teach you the new algorithm to the officials of the Ministry of Revenue, so don't go out in the next two days. Let's finish this important matter first!" Zhu Biao looked at Zhu Yunxi and said with a gratified smile.

By counting the treasury, the new algorithm also attracted the attention of Zhu Yuanzhang. He now lets officials from the Ministry of Revenue learn from them in order to prepare for large-scale promotion in the future.

"That's great!" Zhu Yunxiu almost jumped up excitedly when he heard this. He used to learn from others, but now it's his turn to learn from him. He can also live the addiction to being a teacher.

However, after being excited, Zhu Yunxi suddenly saw Li Jie next to him again, and immediately asked in confusion: "This new algorithm was invented by Li Bandu. Why don't Li Bandu teach those officials, but let me go?"
