Chapter 49: My cabbage grows well
The late dynasty had just dispersed, and Emperor Hongzhi, who had worked all day, breathed a sigh of relief, and the solution of the problem of the displaced people in Zhili and other places in the past few days made his whole mood much better.
Passing by the palace of the crown prince Zhu Houzhao, Emperor Hongzhi stopped.
He still remembers that when the prince was born, he was cute and very likable.
In the blink of an eye, the prince has also grown into a handsome young man, but he has gradually shown his old state......
Emperor Hongzhi sighed silently, and then asked the eunuch beside him, "How is the crown prince doing?" ”
This eunuch's name is Xue Li, he is over forty years old this year, and everything in the palace is clear, and he is a close confidant of Emperor Hongzhi.
Looking at the prince's bedroom, Xue Li looked embarrassed.
Obviously, what the crown prince Zhu Houzhao is doing, he knows it in his heart.
After pondering for a while, Xue Li planned to tell the truth, and said with a bitter face: "Back to Your Majesty's words, the prince has been fine lately, but ......"
"Just what?"
Emperor Hongzhi frowned, and suddenly felt bad in his heart, could it be that the prince made a mess again?
Xue Li didn't dare to hide it, and said truthfully: "According to the little eunuchs who served the prince, after the prince returned to the palace, he didn't know why he refused to let go of a big cabbage, and asked people to dig a place in front of the bed, saying that they wanted to plant cabbage. ”
"Nonsense!"
Emperor Hongzhi lowered his face and stared coldly at the dormitory: "Go in with me, I want to see what kind of madness the prince has!" ”
Hearing this, Xue Li followed closely and landed a foot behind him.
In front of the dormitory!
The eunuchs saluted.
"See Your Majesty!"
Emperor Hongzhi was angry, so he couldn't take care of these eunuchs, so he directly pushed open the door and walked straight in.
Since it is the prince's bedroom, it is naturally built according to the specifications of the palace, and it should have been a luxurious thing in line with its identity, but Emperor Hongzhi did not like luxury, and even the bedroom with the prince was quite shabby.
Eye-catching!
Emperor Hongzhi's face softened slightly, although the prince was not angry and liked martial arts, but his arrogance was not touched at all.
And when he walked to the bookstore and saw a blackboard hanging on the wall, and copied many articles neatly, his gloomy face completely disappeared.
"It's pretty good."
Emperor Hongzhi nodded, did not forget the purpose of coming here, and asked casually, "Where is the crown prince now?" ”
Xue Li followed up and replied, "It should be in the room." ”
"Let's go!"
Emperor Hongzhi lightly spit out a word, and walked towards the room without hesitation.
However!
When Emperor Hongzhi arrived at the door of Zhu Houzhao's room, his originally soothing face instantly became gloomy again.
Inside, except for a bed, everything else has been removed and replaced by a two-meter-square alternative shed.
The originally neat stone slabs on the ground were also pried open, and the dilapidated ones were terrifying.
Even, even after the floor was pried open, the tamped ground was "reclaimed" at the moment, and no one would doubt that it was cultivated land.
But what about the Prince?
Emperor Hongzhi was suspicious, he looked around, but he didn't see Zhu Houzhao's figure in the room at all.
"Xue Li, didn't you say that the prince was in the room? What about people! ”
Xue Li was also stunned, and said in embarrassment: "The prince should be in the room, how can there be none!" ”
Just when Emperor Hongzhi and the others were puzzled, Zhu Houzhao pouted his ass and got out of the shed.
Half a moment ago, Zhu Houzhao took matters into his own hands and completed his "masterpiece" in the room.
This is the miniature version of the shed.
Then, Zhu Houzhao was excited and planted his "fruit of labor", that is, the cabbage.
Coincidentally, Zhu Houzhao had just planted the cabbage here, and he heard the voice of Emperor Hongzhi coldly, so he hurriedly drilled out.
As soon as he looked up, he just met Emperor Hongzhi's eyes.
In an instant, a drop of cold sweat flowed down Zhu Houzhao's forehead, and he sneered: "Father, you are here, take a look at the cabbage planted by Erchen, it grows well." ”
Emperor Hongji was furious.
His eyes were full of anger, and his heart was nameless, and then he saw Zhu Houzhao's sweaty and dusty face, which looked quite funny, and his hands were trembling.
Is this still the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty?
How do you look like an old farmer who is proficient in farming!
They are all worshipping under Du Shen's door, and they are all lawless lords, why are Zhang Hao's three boys more and more stable! And his own son is such a bastard!
"Rebel! Look what kind of bastard you're doing! Grizzled, are you still a prince? Unfilial son! Get down on my knees! ”
Zhu Houzhao trembled, bent his legs, knelt down directly, and said exculpatorily: "Father is angry, Erchen is really planting cabbage!" Didn't do a jerk. ”
It's okay not to say it, but as soon as he said it, Emperor Hongzhi became even more angry.
Grow cabbage!!
Listen, is this what a prince should do?
As a young monarch of a country, he is not angry and sharpens himself, but he grows cabbage.
Even if you plant cabbage, forget it, but don't plant it in the dormitory!
You've torn down the entire floor in the room, and do you know how much money it will cost to recover?
You must know that since Emperor Hongzhi succeeded to the throne, the palace of the Ming Dynasty has never been expanded or rebuilt, and even the Taihe Hall used in the previous court on weekdays leaked water, and it was only repaired by craftsmen.
The most important thing is that each repair is made with the money from the treasury, not from the treasury.
Zhu Houzhao demolished the floor and repaired it when he went back, but it was still the money of Emperor Hongzhi, who was Lao Tzu.
Can he not be angry!
"Where's my whip! Xue Li, go and bring it to me. ”
Xue Li listened to the order, looked at Zhu Houzhao sympathetically, turned around and went out to get a whip.
Zhu Houzhao opened his mouth, and his frightened face turned white.
"Father, you can't beat me! Erchen is really growing Chinese cabbage, and he hasn't done anything else! ”
Emperor Hongzhi laughed angrily: "Okay, you rebel still dare to quibble, Xue Li, take ten whips!" ”
Zhu Houzhao was about to cry, he was obviously just planting a cabbage, and he usually did some bastard things in the palace, bullying the little eunuch, riding horses and archery, and burning the lecturer Yang Tinghe's books, which was not as serious as planting cabbage.
Zhu Houzhao couldn't figure it out, and he was still defending himself.
"Wronged! The father doesn't know right from wrong, and the father is a faint king! ”
Emperor Hongzhi smiled and said: "I see that you have hard wings, even if this matter hits your mother today, I will have to beat you to death!" ”
A moment later, Xue Li came in with a whip.
"Your Majesty, the whip is here!"
Emperor Hongzhi took the whip without looking back, and first waved it to try the feel.
Then, only the sound of the whip was heard, accompanied by Zhu Houzhao's screams.
"Grow cabbage, right?"
Bang Bang Bang!
"Tear down the floor, huh!"
Bang Bang Bang!
Zhu Houzhao screamed, his buttocks were blue and white, and he was scurrying around the room in pain, while Emperor Hongzhi closed the door and jerked violently when he caught it.
"I'm not convinced! Father, you are a faint king! ”
Syllable......
The whip is broken!
Zhu Houzhao's eyes showed excitement......
"Faint King, right?"
Emperor Hongzhi sneered and took out another whip from Xue Li's hand.
Yo he!
Still dare to be hard-mouthed?
It's okay, you keep screaming, I have a lot of whips!
