Chapter 387: The End of an Era

The creature bear child has been a headache since ancient times, especially in the Ming Dynasty, especially when Zhu Laosi was still alive, Zhu Zhanji's four-legged gold-swallowing beast Zhu Qizhen and Yang Shaofeng's four-legged gold-swallowing beast Yang Rui lived into lawlessness.

Usually, in Yangjia Zhuangzi, flirting with cats and dogs can only be regarded as pediatrics, and riding a dog to play a general to fight is even more common, even if these two divine beasts sneak into the palace and smash walnuts with jade seals, it is nothing unusual.

But Zhu Laosi also spoiled these two divine beasts.

As a result, these two divine beasts are even more lawless

Zhu Qizhen and Yang Rui didn't know what to think, the two divine beasts pulled another group of divine beasts to worship as brothers, and then prepared to run away from home collectively, planning to go to the Western Regions to help Zhu Gaoxu fight.

It's a pity that the divine beasts haven't grown up yet, and these juvenile divine beasts are not secretive, and they were caught by their respective parents before they left the Yang family's Zhuangzi within ten miles.

Including Zhu Qizhen and Yang Rui, the two initiators, after knowing that Hu Shanxiang and Lin Tang had prepared the whip, before they could get home, these two divine beasts let people go to the fish pond to catch two carp weighing four or five catties, and then escaped into the palace in the name of giving gifts to grandpa......

"So you're here to eat and drink?"

Zhu Zhanji said dissatisfiedly: "As soon as those two divine beasts enter the palace, can I rush into the palace and beat them up or can I arrest the two of them back?" ”

After meeting Zhu Gaochi, Yang Shaofeng found a chair and sat down, stretched out boredly, and said directly to the border city beside Zhu Zhanji: "Let people prepare some wine and food, I won't go back today." ”

Zhu Gaochi stopped the border city and said with a smile: "Don't prepare, I just said to let Zhan Ji go and find you, and it just so happens that you are here." ”

originally planned to eat and drink, but in the end, he was caught by Zhu Gaochi as a coolie, and Yang Shaofeng felt that he was really miserable. However, what is even more miserable is that there is also Zhu Zhanji who wants to catch Yang Shaofeng as a coolie, in addition to Zhu Gaochi

Zhu Zhanji said that when it comes to fooling people into wheelchairs and stretchers, this is what he is best at, and as a good brother, it is time to help himself.

So Zhu Zhanji took Yang Shaofeng with him to receive those vassal kings and envoys of the vassal state.

……

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

On December 20 in the winter of the 24th year of Yongle, the tsunami-like shouts of the mountains announced the end of the Yongle year.

From the 20th day of December in the winter of Yongle 24, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty became Zhu Gaochi, with the year name Hongxi, and Zhu Laosi finally ended his rule over the Ming Dynasty.

However, the emperor of the Zhu family has never made people feel at ease, including Zhu Laosi, who gave the emperor to Zhu Gaochi.

Politics?

Is it not fun to watch the children in the Yang family Zhuangzi, or is it not fun to go to the Royal Academy to do things?

The government is Zhu Gaochi's fat and round matter, what does it have to do with me, the emperor?

After throwing away the civil and military power, even Jinyiwei and Dongchang were completely thrown to Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Laosi, who no longer needed to worry about the Ming Dynasty, chose to completely let himself go.

As for Zhu Gaochi, who ascended to the throne, after the excitement of the first two days passed, he began to count the days with his fingers

One year is three hundred and sixty-five days, ten years is three thousand six hundred and fifty days, and in another three thousand six hundred and forty-eight days, this throne can be thrown to Zhu Zhanji's coolie, and I can learn from my father to let myself go......

When the time comes, just find a place to plant a few acres of land, raise two cows, go to farm during the day, and go home at night to get hot water to serve the unconscious father to wash his feet, isn't this day more interesting than being an emperor?

Yes, in just two days, Zhu Gaochi was already annoyed with this emperor.

The household department said that it was necessary to count the expenditures and balances of Yongle for the twenty-fourth year, and by the way, it was necessary to do a good job in the financial plan for the first year of Hongxi, but the treasury was so empty that it could run mice, so could the emperor use internal funds to support the treasury?

The Ministry of Industry said that it was necessary to do a good job in summarizing the work of Yongle in the twenty-four years, and by the way, it was necessary to plan the river bridges and palace repairs in the first year of Hongxi.

The Ministry of Rites said that your old man has become an emperor, shouldn't you mean an Enke?

The Ministry of War said that there were 300,000 soldiers who should be discharged from the army in the first year of Hongxi, but there is no specific statement on how to recruit soldiers.

The officials said that the previous emperor left a bunch of pits, and there is no result for the preparation of the small officials, and the dozens of state capitals that have come out of the extra still need a large number of officials, do you have any good opinions?

The Criminal Department said that the new emperor should be granted amnesty to the world when he ascended the throne, but there are still nearly two million coolies in the Ming Dynasty, and these coolies are not within the scope of the amnesty?

The only thing that is worry-free, except for Jinyiwei and Dongchang, is probably only the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies

Now the Governor's Office of the Five Armies is cooperating with Zhu Gaoxu in using troops in the Western Regions, and as long as the military department takes care of the problems of soldiers and logistics, the military government does not want to participate in those bad things in the court at all.

It was precisely those things that made Zhu Gaochi's head want to explode.

Even if it is the crown prince who has many experiences in supervising the country, even if Zhu Laosi has taught all government officials several times some time ago, Zhu Gaochi, who really sat on the throne, found that the prince and the emperor are two different things.

Then Zhu Gaochi chose the same routine as Zhu Laosi.

Pit Prince.

As the so-called dragon gives birth to a dragon, and a phoenix gives birth to a phoenix, Zhu Laosi originally pitted Zhu Gaochi, and now Zhu Gaochi plans to pit Zhu Zhanji

Zhu Zhanji, who has been officially upgraded to the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty, is now completely finished, and a large number of concerts were thrown to him by Zhu Gaochi to deal with......

Only Yang Shaofeng, a salted fish, is still free, and he doesn't have to work as hard as those two coolies.

But this doesn't mean that Yang Shaofeng is really free.

"At the beginning, there was such a tea tree in the imperial palace in Jinling."

After hoeing the tea tree, Zhu Laosi sat on the horizontal hoe handle: "Your grandfather treats that tea tree as a treasure, and no one is usually allowed to touch it, why do you say?" ”

Yang Shaofeng played an excellent praiser in a timely manner: "Why? ”

Zhu Laosi sighed and said, "At that time, the imperial tea that was paid tribute was the big and small dragon group, you should know this."

But this thing is cumbersome, extremely labor-intensive, tribute products are laborious, tea farmers suffer from forced labor, your grandfather simply no longer let people pay tribute to the dragon group, only allow to pay tribute to tea buds, so that the people can suffer less crimes.

Later, your grandfather planted such a tea tree in the palace with your grandmother, planted tea by himself, picked tea by himself, and roasted tea by himself.

It's a pity that your grandmother left early, and that tea tree became his only support for his sorrows, and I thought at that time, how good it would be if I could serve that tea tree with your grandfather. ”

Yang Shaofeng also sighed and said, "I'm afraid that Grandpa Tai has a heart of love for the people, but in a few hundred years, he will be said by some mentally retarded people to be the sinner who destroyed the end of the Dragon Regiment." ”

That's just the way it is.

The last tea, that is, the powder that grinds the tea leaves, and the so-called matcha in the tea ceremony is a simplified version of this thing

"Select the best buds, fine grinding into Luo, miscellaneous brains, all spices and anointment oil, mix the same method, print as cakes, make any skill, wait for drying, still moisten with balm oil, its system has a large and small dragon group with crotch differences, this product is only full of contributions, and the folk are rare."

Zhu Chongba's original ban was this kind of folk rare, only used for tribute and high-level pretending and enjoying the clever decoration of the dragon group, Hongwu 24 years issued the Gengzi edict, officially abolished the group tea in the form of a national decree, and only accepted loose tea from then on:

"At the beginning of the country, the Quartet tribute tea, to Jianning Yangxian as the top, still Song system, grinding and kneading, for the size of the dragon group, Hongwu 24 September, on the heavy labor of the people, strike to make group tea, but pick tea buds to advance."

And the tea vessel that can best carry the last tea method is undoubtedly Jianzhan.

Then Jianzhan and the end of the tea slowly disappeared in the Central Plains tea ceremony.

However, the sad thing is that many people don't remember or selectively forget Zhu Yuanzhang's hard work, and they don't consider the fact that the Ming Dynasty was poor and became a dog at that time, and all the gold and silver were looted by Brother Tieguo to Mobei, and only remembered that he destroyed the last tea and Jianzhan.

However, Japan has never banned it, and the aristocracy can still drink good matcha.

"And then? What else? ”

Zhu Laosi said disapprerovingly: "The mouth grows on other people's bodies, what others want to say, it's someone else's business, can you still kill everyone?"

Wasn't there still a legend that I had punished Fang Xiaoru's ten clans, and some people said that I had killed three thousand palace maids?

I believe that your grandfather has a clear conscience, and I also have a clear conscience, so let them go, right and wrong, it was originally for future generations to comment. ”

"What about the tea tree?"

Yang Shaofeng diverted the topic and asked, "When you moved the capital to Shuntianfu, why didn't you bring that tea tree with you?" ”

At the mention of tea trees, Zhu Laosi's face became extremely gloomy: "What about tea trees?

At that time, your grandfather went early, and your grandfather chose Zhu Yunwen's waste again, so he asked him to serve the tea tree together.

It's a pity, your grandfather has been a hero all his life, but when he is old, he has lost his eyes, and his old man has just gone to the front foot, and Zhu Yunwen's animal husbandry has destroyed the tea tree on his hind foot! ”

The more Zhu Laosi spoke, the more angry he became, and slammed his fist on the hoe handle under him, and said angrily: "He actually has the face to self-immolate!"

If he only cuts Zhu Gui's domain, then he will also cut it, after all, Zhu Gui is not a good thing, and I would have wanted to kill him a long time ago.

But Zhu Yu, Zhu Zi, Zhu Bai, Zhu Hu, what did they do to hurt the heavens and reason? I was in Peking at the time, and I almost had to pretend to be crazy to protect myself, and he still wanted me to die! This beast!

What to eat is not enough, what to do, he is the first to pamper those rotten people! Your grandfather was also blind at the time, why did he pick such a waste! ”

"Eliminate gas."

Yang Shaofeng hurriedly handed over a bowl of tea and persuaded: "Anyway, he can't even find the ashes now, what do you old man care about him?" ”

Zhu Laosi took the tea and drank it all, and scolded angrily: "This is a waste!" He can't even see who he should rely on, and he can't even find the ashes! ”

It wasn't until Yang Shaofeng's four-legged gold-swallowing beast danced and ran over on the second dog that Yang Shaofeng's ears were clean. Desktop::/

"Grandpa, this is my goose, I invite your old man to eat stewed goose in an iron pot!"

Yang Rui threw the big goose with his head pinched in his hand in front of Zhu Laosi, and shouted proudly: "My father's stewed goose is fragrant!" ”

Zhu Laosi's appearance that was still angry just now disappeared in a blink of an eye, and he touched Yang Rui's little head with a smile and said, "Okay, let's eat the goose today."

Also, pay attention to slow down next time, if you accidentally fall and cry in pain, grandpa won't coax you. ”

Turning his head and glaring at Yang Shaofeng, Zhu Laosi changed his appearance again: "What are you still doing in a daze?" Didn't you hear the child say that he wanted to invite me to eat a goose? No one with a conscience is no better than a child! ”

……

Yang Shaofeng, who was lying on the recliner, had already begun to doubt his life.

Chattering, holding grudges, scolding, fickle face, spoiling children excessively, such a bad old man is actually the Yongle Emperor Zhu Laosi who went to the Mobei five times and went to the West seven times in history?

History books are so deceitful!

Every day, I plant tea trees in Yangjia Zhuangzi, and I don't look at this special Shuntianfu, the broken climate of this place can grow the kind of good tea in the south?

The key is that if you like to plant tea trees, you plant them slowly, what are you doing with me as a coolie every day?

It's okay to pull me as a coolie, and you still pull my four-legged beast every day to listen to you remember the you used to do? Listen to your story?

And how many of the chickens, ducks and geese on this Zhuangzi were harmed by those two four-legged gold-swallowing beasts, and you don't have a little AC in your heart?

The four-legged gold-swallowing beast said that if you eat a goose, you will stew a goose, and if you have the ability, you can stew it for him, what do you want me to stew?

"I can't live this day."

Yang Shaofeng looked loveless, leaned his head Lin Tang's belly, which was once again bigger, and sighed: "Originally, I was the little overlord of this Yang family's Zhuangzi, but now it seems that it is obviously a replacement." ”

"Isn't it a substitution?"

Lin Tang's smiling eyes were bent into crescent moons: "Now there is an old emperor on Zhuangzi, and a little overlord."

However, fortunately, there is only one little overlord, if the prince and grandson of the prince's family are also here, it is estimated that it will be good if this Zhuangzi is not disturbed. ”

"It's a daughter."

Yang Shaofeng said: "If this is another son, I don't think I will be able to live." ”

Lin Tang smiled and said, "Do you want to give it to Qi Zhen then?" That's not a bad kid either. ”

"He's dreaming!"

Yang Shaofeng suddenly jumped up from the chair and shouted: "I said that I could give my daughter to his family, but I don't have a daughter yet, but now I am about to have a daughter!" ”

With a roll of his eyes, Yang Shaofeng continued: "It's not impossible to marry my daughter, as long as you can afford the bride price I want." ”

Lin Tang covered his mouth and smiled: "Is it a gold brick paving three feet deep, one cash cow one step, two steps and two cornucopias?" ”

Yang Shaofeng said as a matter of course: "That's necessary, I still want one or two stars and two months, three or two breezes and four clouds, it's his business if he can't afford it, and I can't be blamed when the time comes." ”

"I'll give you a hammer!"

Zhu Zhanji's voice suddenly came from the gate of the courtyard.
