"Your Majesty, you can't favor one over the other!" Su Baiyi begged: "Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to enter the door of the third room when I go home!" ”

"Hahahaha!" Zhu Youzhen laughed and said, "I didn't expect that our first genius in the Ming Dynasty would also be a sluggish person." ”

"Your Majesty, why do you use the same word?" Su Baiyi asked.

Zhu Youzhen smiled and said nothing, knocked on the table and said, "I agreed to this, and the two concubines will give you the title of third-grade lady." That's all for your contribution to the Guide Mansion this time. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Su Baiyi was overjoyed.

Zhu Youzhen said: "Don't laugh yet, I guess you won't be able to laugh later." As he spoke, he found it in a stack of recitals on the table, took out a copy and handed it to Su Baiyi and said: "This is the recital drafted by Xu Guangqi of the cabinet, and I have already ordered the celebrant to approve it, but since you want to ask for a reward for the two concubines, forget about it, fortunately, I didn't send it to the General Administration." ”

Su Baiyi respectfully took the music with both hands, opened it and looked at it, and the more he looked at it, his face turned darker.

This is a note, the person who signed the letter is the head of the household book, the content of the letter is to play to Su Baiyi to add the marquis as the marquis, the cabinet Xu Guangqi also pasted a piece of paper, is for the cabinet vote, after the unanimous consent of the cabinet ministers, proposed to be the Marquis of Suiyang, and then the celebrant used a red pen to approve the three words of the Marquis of Suiyang, and wrote a big quasi.

That is to say, the court was originally going to give itself the title of marquis, and then after this trouble, he had to earn the title of Mrs. Decree for his wife, but as a result, Mrs. Decree was there, and the marquis was gone.

That's it, you come and go, no problem!

"Hahahaha!" Zhu Youzhen saw Su Baiyi's aggrieved appearance, laughed profligately, and pointed at him again: "This is stealing chickens and rice, you don't blame others, okay, don't worry!" Zhu Youzhen withdrew the song from Su Baiyi's hand, patted Su Baiyi's head with the song by the way, and said with a smile: "After you finish the railway, this Suiyang Hou will give it to you, don't worry, this is a boiled duck, you can't run." If you can still make great contributions, I will give you a hereditary replacement for the prince who has retired with the country. ”

"Well, this Suiyang Marquis, the minister must work hard to get it!" Su Baiyi smiled bitterly and said, "Your Majesty, the minister still has two things to report. ”

Zhu Youzhen looked at the heavenly dao outside the door: "I'm going to have lunch." ”

Su Baiyi licked his face and smiled, and came to beat the snake and stick it: "Your Majesty, the ministers don't have a place to settle in Beijing, and they don't have a meal at all." ”

"You ......" Zhu Youzhen pointed at him, and he stopped talking, and finally couldn't help but say: "Why are you so bold?" It can be seen that when Baiguan and I eat together, they are like sitting on pins and needles, and they can't avoid them one by one, and you are still on the pole! ”

"Your Majesty is the true dragon son of heaven, on behalf of the heavens to shepherd the Quartet, if the minister can stay in front of the holy son of heaven for one or two more hours, he will be able to be contaminated with more luxury."

"Okay, okay, don't be a sycophant! For the sake of a meal, I don't even want your Sven. Zhu Youzhen hooked his head and looked outside and said, "Big companion." ”

Wang Chengen hurriedly walked over, put a high handful of music in his hand on the desk, and then bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, it's time for lunch." ”

"Hmm!" Zhu Youzhen said: "You go and rest, just let the imperial dining room have two simple meals." ”

"Yes!" Wang Chengen retreated out of the hall, glanced at Su Baiyi deeply, and shook his head secretly after leaving the hall.

Wang Chengen didn't envy Su Baiyi, but he just felt that this heavenly grace was vast, but he couldn't help but favor one over the other. Wen Zhenmeng and Su Baiyi fought, and Su Baiyi kicked Wen Zhenmeng to a cripple, but not only was he not punished, but he was also left in the palace by His Majesty to eat. And Wen Zhenmeng, the cabinet minister, was unexpectedly ignored.

Is this what happens in life?

In the Qianqing Palace.

Su Baiyi and Chongzhen Junchen each occupied a small table, and each of them had a simple meal on the table. There were also several palace maids standing next to him.

Since Zhu Youzhen ascended the throne, he has advocated thrift, but after all, he is the Son of Heaven, and when he eats at noon, he does not have more than 100 dishes, more than 100 kinds of sauces, and the rest of the grains and drinks are countless. He's just a few simple dishes.

Su Baiyi roughly counted, uh, seven or eight.

However, although there are many dishes, the plates are extremely small, and you can eat them in just a few bites, but fortunately, there are still several staple foods to eat.

Su Baiyi swept away the food on the table with three strokes and five divisions, and when he finished wiping his mouth and looking at the emperor, the emperor had already finished eating, but compared with Su Baiyi's liquidation behavior, Zhu Youzhen's eating method was much simpler.

His dish barely moved.

You don't have to think about it to know that he eats very little, almost nothing.

"Your Majesty!" Su Baiyi wiped his mouth and said: "You have a lot of opportunities, you should eat more, you are in the heyday of the Spring and Autumn Festival, you should pay more attention to your body." ”

"National affairs are tiring, internal and external troubles are not going away, how can I have an appetite." Zhu Youzhen took a sip of tea and rinsed his mouth, looked at Su Baiyi and shook his head, and there was also a trace of worry in his eyes.

Su Baiyi said: "Your Majesty doesn't think so, you have to cherish your body no matter what." For example, Zhou Shizong Chai Rong could have been a saint like Li Shimin, but because of his bad bones, not only did he fail to strengthen the country and the army, but also lost the country, allowing Zhao Kuangyin to take advantage of the situation...... Uh, uh, Your Majesty, the minister should be damned, the minister spoke openly, and said the wrong thing. ”

"Hmph, you're telling the truth!" Zhu Youzhen said: "However, our Ming system's mechanism is much better, and it is difficult to have the kind of powerful person who is above several institutions, you can rest assured." ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!" Su Baiyi took out a book from his sleeve and handed it to Zhu Youzhen: "Your Majesty, this is the internal kung fu of the Wudang faction practiced by the sister of the Chen family, you only need to breathe and breathe according to the above method every morning, and you can achieve the effect of strengthening your body." The reason why the minister was able to kick Lord Wen with one kick also depends on this method. ”

"Did you let me learn to kick someone?" Zhu Youzhen picked up the inner kung fu angrily and said, "I have never been interested in Fang Shizhi's words, but since it is from your hand, there should still be some use, so I will laugh at it." By the way, let's talk about those two things about you, I don't have time to spend with you. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Su Baiyi sat down and said: "The first thing, the construction of the railway has begun, but the organization has not yet been perfected, the minister implores His Majesty to approve the construction of the government, all the affairs and personnel of the railway, all the affairs and personnel of the railway, the minister has full power, and is not allowed to pass through the officials of the six ministries." What the minister meant was that when the railway yamen was built and the railway was completed and it was profitable, the decision on the management and operation of the railway would be made. ”

"This is exactly what you think!" Zhu Youjian said: "The railway is a piece of fat, but it will be bad for those who don't understand the railway to enter, and you have asked for it." ”

The officialdom of the Ming Dynasty, not to mention rotten to the bones, is basically rotten to the heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys, what they think about every day is not to contribute to the country, but to pour into each other and fight for power and profit, just like Yuan Mo privately instigated Luo Rucai to attack the Guide Mansion. As the supreme ruler of the empire, he understands the current state of imperial officialdom better than anyone else.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Well, let's talk about the second thing!" As Zhu Youzhen spoke, he had already reached out and picked up the music and began to watch it, he thought that the second thing should not be a big deal, but as soon as Su Baiyi opened his mouth, he suddenly put the music in his hand back in place, and said in surprise: "What are you talking about, you are going to Annan?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Su Baiyi gave up.

"No, no, no!" Zhu Youzhen waved his hand and said: "The construction of the railway is very important, I can't leave you, you pat your ass and go to Annan, what should I do with the railway?" ”

Su Baiyi said with a smile: "Your Majesty, rest assured, Weichen has arranged everything properly, the construction of the railway is currently only in the stage of filling the earth, and it is still very early to take shape, and the minister will not come back when he goes to Annan, and he can return in a few months at most, and he will not delay the construction of the road." ”

After speaking, he explained carefully: "At the beginning, the minister and His Majesty planned, and the construction of the railway was only one of the steps, and there was also the import of grain from Annam, Champa, Phnom Penh, Ayutthaya, and Donghu. Otherwise, even if we go to buy grain, people may not be able to sell it. ”

"And!" Su Baiyi continued: "Annan is the closest to us, and its land can be harvested three times a year, and three crops of rice can be planted, so it is the first choice for us to buy rice. Now its domestic three-legged stand, the first time I went, this Zheng lord ignored us, and pretended to be a pirate to rob merchant ships, so the minister's meaning, let's help the weak and fight the strong, and raise two weak forces to deal with the Zheng family, just to see the seams and make a profit from it. ”

"Okay!" Zhu Youzhen waved his hand and said, "I'm right, I don't have air traffic control over there, you can act cheaply." ”

"Quang Nam Nguyen wants a name." Su Baiyi said with a smile: "What the minister means is that since this Zheng Zhuang is not satisfied with the Ming Dynasty, we might as well make some trouble for him, canonize the Quang Nam Ruan clan and the Gaoping Mo clan as kings, and let them go dog eats dogs. ”

"Accurate!"

"In this way, the minister will not disturb Your Majesty!" Su Baiyi stood up and was about to retire.

Zhu Youzhen said: "You stop!" ”

Su Baiyi turned his head.

Zhu Youzhen said: "When you come to Beijing this time, except for these few things, have you done everything else?" ”

"It's over, Your Majesty!"

"Good!" Zhu Youzhen said: "When it's over, hurry up and get out, don't make trouble for me here." ”

"Your Majesty, this ...... The minister also had to go to the Ministry of Rites to make official documents and state letters, and also went to Honglu Temple to discuss specific etiquette, as well as the canonization of the two kings of Annan. ”

"You don't have to worry about this, I will let them prepare it and send it to Guide Mansion." Zhu Youzhen waved his hand again: "Tomorrow, the day after tomorrow at the latest, if you are still in the capital division, I will let the Jinyi guard throw you out of the city gate." ”

Su Baiyi's face immediately became bitter, and he said in his heart: Boss, I didn't offend you, why is it wrong to look at me.
