Chapter Sixty-Eight: See the Driver
The rope was straightened, the balloon rose to the limit, and the hanging basket shook violently, Zhang Youshen was unprepared, and was suddenly shocked out of the hanging basket. This is good, the province hesitated, his ears heard the sound of the wind, he didn't dare to have the slightest hesitation, hurriedly opened the parachute, and at the same time secretly prayed: God and Buddha bless, but don't go wrong! Then, before the prayer was finished, he felt a violent shock and his descent slowed down.
Looking up, the bright red silk was dazzling, wide open, like a giant umbrella.
His heartbeat finally slowed down, only to find that in just a moment, his whole body was soaked with sweat, and the wind blew coldly.
But after all, he didn't have to be the first person ever to parachute to his death.
Zhang You fell out of the hanging basket, Zhu Yijun was stunned, and then saw the figure falling rapidly, and before he could take a breath, he saw a red thing quickly fall off his body and rise, like a flame quickly opened, and then miraculously, the speed of the figure falling quickly slowed down, and it fluttered in the wind, and it turned out to be a leisurely look.
He couldn't help but think of the scene when he ran with an umbrella when he was a child, and asked again in surprise: "Who is that person?" To be able to think of such an ingenious method, it seems that it was not unintentional to fall just now, but it was intentional. I'm afraid this huge Kong Ming lantern that can take people into the sky is also his idea, right? Interesting, where did Aiqing find such a wonderful person, if I didn't intend to come here today, wouldn't you still be able to hide your secrets? ”
"Back to Long Live Lord, the ministers don't dare to hide their secrets, they really only brought him into Beijing last night, and they haven't had time to introduce you yet." At this moment, Zhang Whale had already thought of his words, seeing that Zhang You was safe and praised by Zhu Yijun, he was already overjoyed, and he forcibly suppressed the joy in his heart, and continued: "This person was recommended by Ning Yongquan, the magistrate of Pinggu County, surnamed Zhang Mingyou, and he was originally a famous doctor. Mr. Yuanfu was sick, and the ministers were worried about state affairs, and when they heard about this person, they hurriedly sent Xing Shangzhi to invite, who knew that he was not only skilled in medicine, but also made a big Kong Ming lantern that could bring people to the sky, which could be regarded as an inadvertent collision with a treasure. The ministers received the reply, thinking that if such a Kong Ming lantern could be used in the military, it would definitely strengthen the military might, so he instructed Xing Shangzhi to bring people and things into Beijing together. ”
As he spoke, Zhang You had already fallen into the distance with the wind, Zhu Yijun instructed the Han general to bring it back quickly, and said to Zhang Whale: "This matter is very good, Aiqing is worried about state affairs, I am very happy, I will give you a python robe and a suit, and give the Forbidden City to ride a horse. Well, Xing Shangzhi is also very capable in handling things, so don't be the secretary of the department at the same time, and Xing Shangzhi will be promoted. As for Pinggu Zhixian, Ning ...... Rather than come, recommend meritorious, turn back to inform the ministry, and promote as appropriate. ”
"Thank you, Lord Longne!" Zhang Whale and Xing Shangzhi knelt on the ground at the same time to thank him. Xing Shangzhi secretly thought, after all, it was not in vain, Zhang You is really a noble person of our family, long live the lord let our family succeed the master and be promoted to the position of the secretary of the salary, and he didn't say how the errand of the secretary of the East Factory was, it seems that he can also serve as a part-time officer. Yes, our family has been in the palace for more than 30 years, and today we can finally keep the clouds open and see the moon, and we can come out.
Zhang Whale is also very happy, the royal * with the palm print of the supervisor is also a fat poor, and the errand of the Salary Division is also considered to be a fat water that does not flow into the field of outsiders, it seems that the move of taking Zhang You into Beijing is really wonderful, seeing that the Lord is so happy, it is necessary to hold this person in his hand.
"By the way, Long live Lord Qiyu, that Zhang You is indeed a talent, just the same, his legs and feet are inconvenient, he is a lame man......"
"What's wrong with the lame? Mr. Yuanfu often educates me to reduce talents without sticking to one pattern, and not to judge people by their appearance. Again, when I have a sore foot, I can't walk with a limp, don't you, dare to laugh at me? Zhu Yijun said dissatisfied. Zhang Whale is a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and he is quite fortunate to be favored, so when he speaks, he doesn't need to face foreign ministers, but also has to think about it.
Zhang Whale secretly smiled bitterly, originally he was afraid that if he waited for Zhang You to see him, he would not kowtow to him when he saw him not long ago, and set up an ambush in advance, but who knew that Zhu Yijun actually misunderstood what he meant, and even compared his foot pain.
This is good, I haven't seen anyone yet, and I started to speak for him, it seems that the power of this big Kong Ming lantern is really not small, and when I really see Zhang You, I don't know what kind of official he is?
Led by the Han general, Zhang You pondered a question all the way, whether to kneel down when he saw Zhu Yijun later? In fact, this was not a problem, when he first saw Ning Yongquan, he had a grudge, so he was reluctant to kneel. Then when he saw Zhang Whale, he didn't like this person very much, and he looked agitated when he ate Lan Qi, so he also pretended to be stupid. Now it's Zhu Yijun's turn, this is the highest head of the empire, and it is natural to kneel down and salute.
It's just that the soul of the future lives in his body, and he really kneels down and kowtows, and he really can't get over the hurdle in his heart.
Forget it, take one step at a time, it's really hard to get to the point, your life is at stake, and you have to bend your knees.
Thinking that he had returned to Zhang's mansion, he encountered some strange glances on the way, and he really didn't pay attention.
"You are Zhang You?" Before Zhang You approached, Zhu Yijun had already spoken first.
Don't say it, maybe the emperor was born with some dragon energy, even if Zhang You did not see the country's leaders in later generations, when he saw Zhu Yijun for the first time, he still had a little heartbeat, his mind was spinning, he hesitated for a moment, and finally knelt down, who knew that before his knees hit the ground, he heard Zhu Yijun say: "Okay, okay, you are lame, you don't need to make these false courtesies, hurry up and tell me, how did you come up with the idea of making such a big Kong Ming lantern?" ”
Zhang You got off the donkey and stood up, but the bow was solemn, and his waist was almost bent at a ninety-degree right angle.
Hearing Zhu Yijun ask this question, his mind was racing, and he smiled and said: "Your Majesty, in fact, this is really not the idea of the grass people themselves, but the grass people and the grass people's husband came up together, and the husband is also ready to make a pair of wings that can slide, but unfortunately before it can be made, the grass people were taken into Beijing by Zhang Gonggong......"
"Oh? Wings that can glide? Zhu Yijun's eyes lit up and interrupted Zhang You.
Zhang You said: "That's right, Your Majesty has seen birds flying, right?" They don't flap their wings all the time, but often stretch their wings and glide, but they don't fall off, and the reason is actually very simple, just like the parachute that the grass people brought just now, because of the wind. ”
"What's your name, this gentleman of yours is amazing?"
"Back to Your Majesty, the grass people's husband's surname is Guo, his name is Zaoqing, and he is now the staff of Qi Jiguang, the chief military officer of Jizhou Town."
"Guo Zaoqing? Sounds familiar. ”
Zhang Whale interjected with a smile: "Long live Lord should have heard of this person's name, and he is a friend of Xu Zhongxing, the former political envoy of Jiangxi......"
"I think about it, I think about it, this person treats friends sincerely, but he is a very righteous person, I didn't expect it to be your teacher." Zhu Yijun thought about it when he said this, and said: "With such a talent, staying by Qi Jiguang's side as a military advisor is a bit wronged by him, I remember that he seems to have chosen tribute to Chengjun, right?" It's good to go to the Ministry of Engineering, I think about it...... By the way, the capital water Qingzhi Shilang has been sick for a long time and is old, so you can simply take over by your husband! ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Mr. Caomin."
"Alright, don't be a grass farmer." Zhu Yijun said with a smile, Zhang You's heart was sudden, is this his turn? I don't know what kind of official to do?
