Chapter 108: Flattery

More than a year has passed, Shang Wei seems to be more vicissitudes, when Shang Wei walked up to the hall and saw Ma Sanbao, he couldn't help but look at it for a while.

Compared with more than a year ago, Ma Sanbao has grown a little taller, and even between his eyebrows and eyes has grown a lot, although he has nothing to do with maturity, but at least he has seen the handsome outline, if it is placed in modern times, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a traffic niche, and his appearance can make his debut.

Seeing Ma Sanbao, Shang Hui's eyes suddenly appeared with surprise, during this time, the former prime minister looked a lot haggard, looking at the official uniform and hat, it seemed that he had been demoted.

"Taifu Siqing, here!" Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Shang Hui and said, Taifu Siqing is a lot smaller than Shang Hui's previous position, and now his position is similar to Shang Shu, and it seems that Shang Wei is a lot busier, with more wrinkles in the corners of his eyes, and a little more gray hair in his sideburns.

"I've seen Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I heard that Hu Pengju once appeared in the north, and the minister wants to go to the northern battlefield in person, and the minister also understands the military formation, and wants to get rid of Hu Weiyong's descendants." Shang Wei said that he had been deceived by Hu Weiyong into joining the traitorous party, if it weren't for his pure nature, it is estimated that he would have followed Hu Weiyong's way, fortunately, he quit early, but he has been demoted during this period of time, it is related to this history, his position is constantly changing, not because of his business ability, but because Zhu Yuanzhang once doubted him.

"I don't have to worry about you, he also met Hu Pengju, you came late, Shang Hui, I didn't expect you to have a lot of blood, in order to kill the rebel party, you also want to take the initiative to transfer to the front, I am very pleased, it's a pity, Hu Pengju estimates that he will not return to the battlefield in a short time, and it is all thanks to Wen and this kid!" Zhu Yuanzhang nodded towards Ma Sanbao's position, Ma Sanbao touched his head casually, this Ming Emperor is ridiculously fast in the speed of learning the grapevine, even Zhu Di can't compare with him, no wonder, maybe there are other supervising imperial histories hidden in the army, now, most of the supervising imperial histories have another job, that is, doglegs, most of the current supervising imperial histories have learned to be paparazzi, and becoming a qualified war correspondent is the literacy of supervising the imperial history.

"How did he do it? Your Majesty, why do you say this? Shang Wei looked at this child who was only on his chest with a confused expression, and was a little puzzled, what could this child do on the battlefield? Will Hu Pengju be scrapped? To be honest, he didn't believe it. His thighs may not be as thick as Hu Pengju's wrists.

"I accidentally broke Hu Pengju's finger, basically it was scrapped, and I couldn't go to the battlefield." Ma Sanbao said that he didn't know how many fingers he had broken Hu Pengju before, and only saw a puddle of meat on the ground and a firearm that was picked up by other soldiers, but after hearing the grapevine, Hu Pengju dropped three fingers, and three fingers fell to the ground, basically his right hand was scrapped in this life, and Ma Sanbao knew a lot about AK's bullets.

"How is this possible?" Shang Wei's eyes widened, he really didn't expect Ma Sanbao to have the ability to abolish Hu Peng's fingers, Shang Wei looked at Ma Sanbao for a long time, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that this child was incredible, seeing Shang Hui's eyes, Ma Sanbao hurriedly recalled his previous misunderstanding of Shang Hui, it turned out that this high-ranking official was prone to a misunderstanding when looking at people.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't speak, for the son of a Ming traitor is still in exile, which makes him have a headache, he hopes that Ma Sanbao will kill Hu Pengju quickly, but unfortunately, Ma Sanbao failed to do it, just broke Hu Pengju's three fingers.

Seeing that Ma Sanbao did not refute, Shang Wei became more and more convinced of the authenticity of this matter, but he was still very puzzled, what kind of ability did this child use to abolish Hu Pengju, who was more than ten years older than him, and let such a big child go to the battlefield, it is estimated that Xu Da would not agree, if he didn't go to the battlefield, how could he clean up Hu Pengju and cut off Hu Pengju's fingers?

Shang Wei didn't know that Ma Sanju had a magic weapon, which could break Hu Pengju's fingers at a long distance, if it weren't for the distance being too far and someone blocking Hu Pengju's face, it was estimated that Hu Pengju was not a finger, but a whole palm, for Ma Sanbao, Shang Wei still had a lot of things he didn't know, after all, Shang Wei only appreciated Ma Sanbao, and didn't know Ma Sanbao's life experience and secrets.

"Your Majesty, the minister has nothing to do, and he wants to retire." Shang Wei opened his mouth and said, he came here just for the news of Hu Pengju, although he is not a person who likes to calculate, but Hu Pengju's father's incident caused his official position to be reduced again and again, even if he is a Buddha, he will be angry, after all, his life will be implicated.

"Have you read my daughter's letter to you?" Suddenly, Shang Wei stopped beside Ma Sanbao and asked in a whisper in Ma Sanbao's ear.

"I didn't look very carefully, I was too busy in Beiping and Northeast during this time, I only watched one or two, and I will definitely watch it next time." Ma Sanbao said stiffly, he observed Shang Wei carefully, this high-ranking official did not have much fluctuation, and nodded very calmly.

"I knew you wouldn't take it seriously, it's okay, the little girl is still young, you can wait, don't delay others!" Shang Wei smiled and patted Ma Sanbao's shoulder, and suddenly Ma Sanbao was a little confused, is this considered a moral kidnapping? He never said that he wanted to marry Shang Hui's youngest daughter, why did Shang Hui think that he would definitely marry his daughter? Before Ma Sanbao could find Shang Wei to explain clearly, Shang Hui's back had gradually drifted away, looking at Shang Hui's figure walking down the steps, Ma Sanbao shrugged his shoulders helplessly.

Shang Wei had just left, and the Hubu Shangshu and the Ministry of Rites, who had been sent by Zhu Yuanzhang before, walked into the main hall of the palace, and one after another high-ranking officials appeared, which made Ma Sanbao a little overwhelmed, his identity and these high-ranking officials did not match at all, even if Zhu Yuanzhang established Jinyiwei and made him a test hundred officials, it was only from the official position of the sixth grade, and all the people present were all high-ranking officials of the second grade, plus the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Ma Sanbao and them could not even compare with a mosquito leg.

"Looking for you two, it was Wenhe's previous idea that stimulated me, I think our imperial examination system is indeed a little backward, I think, we need to open up a new education system, that is the nine-year compulsory education mentioned by Wenhe earlier!" Zhu Yuanzhang stood up from the dragon chair and said proudly, he waved his sleeves and expressed his prospects.

Zhu Yuanzhang opened his mouth, how dare the head of the household department and the book of the Ministry of Rites have something to say? In the main hall, these two behaved very steadily, and compared with the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, both they and other Shangshu seemed very quiet.

"The prince is really, he actually called the two of you who have no opinion, and the other Shangshu refused to come to see me? I want your opinion, and you nod your head here, and I don't know if you agree! Zhu Yuanzhang said dissatisfiedly, accusing the prince by the way, for the two in front of him, Zhu Yuanzhang had long seen that they were unhappy, in the early days, these two would continue to work hard for their official positions, and pretend, now in a high position, these two seem to be very Buddhist, basically regardless of any work, no matter what opinions Zhu Yuanzhang proposes, the two of them will only agree.

Hearing that Zhu Yuanzhang was a little angry, the Hubu Shangshu and the Rite Shangshu glanced at each other, the two sides were thinking about something, and waited for a long time, and then they slowly spoke, "Your Majesty, it's not that we don't have opinions, it's just that Your Majesty is wise and martial, and everything he does is right and providential, how can we oppose it?" We have long felt that the imperial examination system is a bit outdated, and in these nine years of compulsory education, we naturally agree that the country's money is in the hands of His Majesty, and we are just taking care of it instead of His Majesty, and what etiquette system and examination system are all up to His Majesty, and we will always follow in His Majesty's footsteps! ”

The kung fu of these two sycophants is really first-class, Ma Sanbao looked at these two people who can even blow dead things into living things stupidly, these two people are simply outrageous, although Zhu Yuanzhang can't tolerate half a word of complaint in his ears, but he doesn't like to listen to slander, but the horse kung fu of these two people slapped Zhu Yuanzhang's heart, Zhu Yuanzhang squinted his eyes with satisfaction, no longer angry, slowly sat on the dragon chair, crossed his legs and scolded Fang Yu on the board in front of him.

"Wenhe, have you learned? It is not unreasonable for them to be high-ranking officials, in front of Your Majesty, the least respect is to be given, you should be more restrained in the future, if it is not for Your Majesty's praise of you, if you are replaced by others, it is estimated that you will be given death for the crime of great disrespect. The prince whispered in Ma Sanbao's ear, when it comes to the ability to flatter, this prince is not bad, otherwise how could he become a celebrity around Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang?

Ma Sanbao nodded stunned, he agreed with what Wang Gonggong said, what Wang Gonggong said is indeed the truth, if you want to mix well in this world, not to say that the whole person should be smooth, at least you need to learn to flamboyate, if you can't even say what to please Your Majesty, it is obviously difficult to get a high position, Ma Sanbao knows this truth, but he always unconsciously communicates with Zhu Yuanzhang as a modern person, after all, in their world, there is no high or low status, everyone is equal, and everyone has human rights.

"Next time, next time." Ma Sanbao hurriedly smiled and responded to the prince.

"I've drafted a decree, you two can take a look!" Zhu Yuanzhang raised his head, interrupted the conversation between Wang Gonggong and Ma Sanbao, and looked at the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Household at the same time.
