"Hey, hey, Your Highness, forgive me for my clumsy eyes, such Su embroidery is really rare!" He questioned it, but it was inconvenient to say it thoroughly.

Bo Lian nodded, "That is, I have never seen such Su embroidery." ”

"Rare things, you haven't seen them!" Zhu Qiming just looked at the silk cloth in his hand, and looked appreciative, "This is a first-class Su embroidery!" Eh, this king has asked for a decree in front of the emperor, and intends to use such Su embroidery as a reward for the Warat mission, but the emperor is a little hesitant, worried that this move will hollow out the foundation of Yuefu, maybe he wants this king to make a price, and buy it with silver from the household. The king understands that the emperor is still worried that the household department will not be able to come up with so much silver, but if the king only opens half the price, the emperor will probably agree. Well, just get a triple discount! ”

There was a buzzing sound, and the Warats were talking to each other.

"Your Highness, as far as our ministers know, the rewards of the Ming Dynasty have their own rules to follow. ”

"The regulations are all set by people, so what's the point of changing them! Besides, you deserve a great reward for coming from afar! ”

Is this a reward? It's clearly fooling people! Uncle said with a bitter face: "For such a Su embroidery, His Majesty the Ming Emperor is not blind?" ”

"Eh, the emperor still can't trust this king? Don't worry, if this king goes to the palace to ask for an edict again, the emperor will definitely nod his head, and he will not be reluctant to reward this thing because it is precious! ”

The Warats looked at each other blankly, and their hearts were quickly fiddling with the abacus. opened his mouth to make it clear that this is not Su Xiu, but I am afraid that King Yue's oil and salt will not enter, and in the territory of King Yue, how can they speak! Alas, the tributes brought in the past were always fake and shoddy, so they took advantage of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming never dared to return with fakes. But right now, this Yue Wang Tian is not afraid of the earth, what can't he do? If you annoy him and really get a few so-called rewards like rags, it will be a big loss, and who will you find to cry out when the time comes!

Zhu Qiming picked up the silk cloth, "Alas, it's a pity! ”

"Dare to ask Your Highness, what are you sorry for?" He said in a hurry.

"It's a pity that such a good Su embroidery, the inventory of Yuefu is too small, but I am afraid that it is not enough to reward ten people. However, in three days, the king will order the people to complete the system! ”

The man over there breathed a long sigh of relief, "Hey, hey, Your Highness, this matter is a little troublesome, and the others will leave for it tomorrow morning." ”

Uncle Bo's eyes lit up, and he echoed: "My minister will also lead the crowd to set off tomorrow morning, I'm afraid I will live up to His Highness's good intentions." ”

Zhu Qiming put on a reluctant expression, "You have come from afar, why don't you stay for a few more days?" ”

"No, no, thank you for your kindness."

He took the man and saluted again and again, and then resigned.

"Eh, what a good Su embroidery, you can wait for three more days!"

In the distance, the duan and the uncle panicked, and actually collided together, each staggering, and they still staggered and disappeared into the path behind the building.

······

"Hahaha······"

In the Yongsu Palace, Ma Yu reported how Zhu Qiming asked the Wara delegation to take the initiative to set off, and the emperor rarely laughed after hearing it. "Prudence has the advantage of prudence, and boldness has the magic of boldness, and the cautious officials of the Ministry of Rites can't take the Varat mission, and the king of Yue has come to make the Varat people have to invite themselves on the road. Well, I'm wondering, is the DPRK overcautious? ”

"Your Majesty, there is internal strife in the country, and there are tigers and wolves outside, at this time, we must be vertical and horizontal, drastic, and cautious is not beneficial to the community!"

Drastic? Easier said than done! The enthusiasm of a few years ago flashed in the emperor's mind, and quickly disappeared.

Seeing that the emperor's face was gloomy, Ma Yu immediately changed the topic: "Your Majesty, everything related to the Ryukyu Kingdom has been negotiated, Liang Qiu only waits for His Majesty's decree and sends envoys on a later date." ”

"That's easy to say." The emperor's tone softened slightly, "What about the dispute between North Korea and the Jianzhou Jurchen?" ”

After some mediation, the anger of both sides has disappeared a lot. Your Majesty, although Li Manzhu sent an envoy to sue first, the DPRK and the Jianzhou Jurchens have repeatedly provoked, and the Ming Dynasty does not know what is going on and does not understand the details, so it is not appropriate to take sides with either side. Besides, now under the coercion of Warat, only North Korea is still a hard bone, and the Ming Dynasty must not let North Korea chill! ”

The emperor frowned slightly, and after a while, he showed his face, "That's it, let's hold this matter high and put it down gently, I will send an edict to Li Manzhu and the king of Joseon, Li Qi, and admonish the two of them to live in harmony in the future." ”

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Ma Yu took a step forward, "Your Majesty, please step back and leave left and right." ”

The emperor glanced at Ma Yu suspiciously, and then waved away several attendants in the palace.

"Your Majesty, during the Xuande period, seven Korean girls entered Beijing with the Ming mission, and Li Suizuo asked His Majesty to allow them to return to China."

The emperor was stunned for a long time, "Back then, North Korea did offer female chefs to the imperial examination, but in the second year of orthodoxy, didn't I order them to return to North Korea?" ”

"Your Majesty, you are talking about the second year of Xuande, when a group of Korean female chefs came to the Forbidden City, and occasionally served Korean meals for the first emperor. After His Majesty ascended to the pole, he was not accustomed to Korean food, and thought that they were lonely and helpless when they left their homeland, so that they could be allowed to return to China in the second year of orthodoxy. However, Li Sui insisted that in the eighth year of Xuande, seven more girls entered Beijing with the Ming mission, saying that they were summoned by the first emperor. ”

"Nonsense!" The emperor Huo Ran got up, and his eyes were about to spark, "Li Sui dares to say what he says, damaging the reputation of the imperial examination!" ”

"I hope Your Majesty will calm his anger, if it weren't for the truth, how could Li Sui dare to speak rashly? The minister heard about this back then, but the seven women did not enter the Forbidden City, but disappeared! The possibility that some envoys falsely preached the holy decree for personal gain cannot be ruled out! ”

The emperor became angry, gritted his teeth and said, "Who was the envoy back then?" ”

"The minister has checked, it's Wang Zhen, the current celebrant and eunuch!"

What the! The emperor glanced at Ma Yu sharply. If it were someone else, who would dare to turn over Wang Zhen's old accounts by the emperor's side? However, the loyalty of the five ministers to the Son of Heaven can be seen day and moon, and they have both ability and political integrity, and they are the emperor's most trusted foreign officials. What's more, this matter came from Li Sui's mouth, how could Ma Yu dare to bear the big crime of bullying the king and not report it truthfully?

However, Mr. Wang ······ Wang Zhen is the emperor's scepter! can pry the entire court, there is always a way to make him, the son of heaven, govern the country handy, without Wang Zhen, the emperor is only afraid of "strikes"!

In the face of such a scandal that damaged the reputation of the former emperor, no one would be able to escape death if it were someone else······ How could it be Mr. Wang!

A trace of coldness flashed in the emperor's eyes, "It was King Yue who asked you to report this matter, right?" ”

"Your Majesty, Li Sui said that he listened to the ministers, and King Yue didn't know about it."

The emperor sat down in a daze, his expression changed several times, and finally, his eyes were resolute, "After many years, Li Sui misremembered the year of the envoy sent by the Ming Dynasty, and I don't know, it's just that you can't mention this matter to anyone again, just as if it never happened!" ”

Misremembered? Check it out and you'll understand! Ma Yu was unconvinced, but he was also invisible.

"Obey the order!"

After Ma Yu left, the emperor sat there and stared and pondered for a long time, after all, it was related to the reputation of the first emperor, and he couldn't let go of it after all. As a result, the seemingly seamless relationship between the emperor and Wang Zhen was opened by a crack, and now the emperor can still close the crack, but maybe one day there will be an accident, and the crack that is forced to close will be torn apart suddenly!
