Chapter 138: Return to Beijing

Since Qian Qianyi learned that Zhu Youxiao would be able to repel the main force of the Tartars by leading 10,000 Janissaries, he was even more convinced of his belief that he would be the first to see Zhu Youxiao in this life. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

As soon as he saw Zhu Youxiao calmly come out of the dragon chariot, he, a cabinet scholar, suddenly ran over like a wild horse, pushed away the eunuch who was about to be a human flesh, and personally squatted on the ground, arching his old waist: "Your Majesty, please get off the dragon chariot." ”

The court officials who greeted him were stunned when they saw this scene, everyone didn't expect that this Qian Pavilion old man was so anxious to run over just to do the work that the low-level eunuchs in the palace did!

And some officials with good emotional intelligence can't help but have an epiphany because of this, and secretly say that it is no wonder that Qian Dacai was able to rise from the imperial history to the Ministry of Rites within half a year, and now he has entered the cabinet, which seems to have something to do with the thickness of his skin to a certain level.

Shao Zhan Shi Huang Daozhou snorted disdainfully, and Shi Kefa, who was nominated by Qian Qianyi as a new science and technology jinshi, couldn't help but shake his head.

The self-appointed officials naturally looked down on Qian Qianyi's shameless behavior, and even couldn't help but regret that Qian Muzhai, who was full of talent and virtue in the past, had become such a thriving person.

Naturally, the notes of some civil officials also recorded the story of "the old man of the shameless pavilion was the son of the horse", and even some pretentious literati began to exaggerate it, which made the old Qian Ge even more notorious.

However, there was no imperial historian in the court who impeached Qian Ge Lao because of this, and the reason was naturally that Qian Ge Lao was patting His Majesty the Emperor's sycophants, according to the words of Confucius, this is the loyalty of the king.

The gendarmes who thought that the old Qian Pavilion was coming to assassinate His Majesty all took back their knives, and Tang Fusheng, who had always been cold and always cold, saw the flattering expression of the old Qian Pavilion and couldn't help laughing.

And Zhu Youxiao was also a little stunned, and let him step on the back of a person who was nearly half a hundred years old to get on and off the car, he himself felt a little inappropriate, so he said: "Qian Ge get old, I am very heavy, be careful to break your waist." ”

"Don't get in the way, Your Majesty, the old minister is capable", Qian Qianyi said with a flattering smile.

Seeing that he was so undisciplined, Zhu Youxiao nodded with satisfaction, said "yes" and stepped on his back and walked.

And Qian Qianyi also gritted his teeth, trying to keep his waist not shaking or flashing, but he still couldn't help but secretly scold Wang Chengen for lying to him and saying that His Majesty only had a hundred catties, but now this test seems to be more than one hundred and fifty catties.

Qian Qianyi, a dignified scholar of the East Pavilion University and a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, did not want to be disciplined and was willing to be Zhu Youxiao's dismount, and the other court officials who were waiting here were not good enough to take it again, so they knelt down busily.

Although Zhu Youxiao was happy in his heart, he deliberately put on a straight face on the surface: "You are all important ministers of the court, people with noble status, how can you easily kneel and bow down, get up, don't take it as an example, although the ceremony cannot be abolished, but it must not be undignified." ”

"What Your Majesty said is that the ministers remember", Qian Qianyi stole the limelight of Wei Guangwei, the first assistant of the cabinet, at this time, and took over the words first, which made Wei Guangwei unhappy for a while, but because it was His Majesty's triumph, he still had a smile on his face.

By the time Zhu Youxiao returned to the Forbidden City, it was already sunset, and Empress Zhang Yan and others were still standing under the palace wall looking forward to it.

Looking at the few women standing in the distance, Zhu Youxiao showed a gentle smile, then retreated, and walked to the inner court by himself, Liu Ru hurriedly pulled Zhang Yan's skirt: "Niangniang, it's Your Majesty!" ”

Zhang Yan nodded, and at this time, Gong'e Xu Fo also heard Liu Ruyi's voice, and hurriedly ran over, leaning on the white jade pillar to hide and look at the triumphant majesty in the square.

Zhu Youxiao hugged Zhang Yan and touched her face, which was still as white as snow: "You have lost weight." ”

"Your Majesty, you have also lost weight".

As Zhang Yan spoke, she saw a scar between Zhu Youxiao's eyebrows, so she stretched out her hand with pity and touched it gently: "It is said that the sword has no eyes, Your Majesty should not go out to fight in the future, and the battlefield will have its own soldiers to fight for their lives." ”

"Just listen to you", Zhu Youxiao put one hand around Zhang Yan's thin waist, and couldn't help but lean down, causing Zhang Yan'e to glare, and he had no choice but to settle down.

Wang Chengen had already asked Shang Shan Jian to prepare a rich dinner, and when Zhu Youxiao came, he saw that the table of the Eight Immortals covered with bright yellow silk cloth was full of various dishes, and Zhu Youxiao couldn't count how many they were, only to see that there were goose, chicken, fish, pigs, cows, donkeys, quails, smoked meat, rabbits, deer and other meats, as well as a glass of milk that is currently only available in the court, and the staple foods are noodles, gluten, tofu, rotten clothes, fungus, mushrooms, etc.

"Wang Chengen, didn't I say that everything is simple, five dishes and one soup are enough?" Zhu Youxiao pointed to the table full of meals that he couldn't finish and asked Wang Chengen coldly.

Wang Chengen hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, don't blame, these are Wei Zhongxian of Nan0 Beijing who is filial to you, because Qian Ge Lao wrote a report on His Majesty's daily diet in the Beijing Express and praised His Majesty's thrifty and Taizu legacy article and was known to Wei Zhongxian, Wei Zhongxian sent someone to entrust Wei Chen to personally pay 1,000 taels to contract His Majesty's daily food, saying that he can't be bitter Your Majesty. ”

Zhu Youxiao couldn't help laughing after hearing this: "This Wei Zhongxian is really a rich man now, I, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, also have to rely on him to help, send someone to send a message to him, he has this heart is enough, this extravagant fee will be exempted, if he can't spend more money, he will open a few more mines, now the expansion of the army is imminent, the demand for iron ore and coal mines will increase, I don't want Song Yingxing of the Royal Academy of Engineering to complain about the lack of iron smelting in the future." ”

Wang Chengen saw that Zhu Youxiao still took good care of Wei Zhongxian, and even gave him such a fat difference as mining a mine, but he also felt a little bad in his heart, although he was already the most noble person among the ministers, but his status in His Majesty's heart was still worse than Wei Zhongxian.

"As Your Majesty instructs, what about this table?" Wang Chengen asked in a low voice.

Zhu Youxiao smiled and sat down, picked up his chopsticks and pointed at Zhang Yan and the others: "Sit down and eat, it's rare for Gonggong Wei to have a piece of mind, Wang Chengen, you also sit down and eat, this is a casual banquet, you don't have to stick to secular etiquette." ”

Wang Chengen hurriedly thanked him, and said with a smile: "The minister should stand and watch His Majesty eat, otherwise the minister is really not used to it." ”

Zhu Youxiao nodded and didn't force it, he naturally didn't care about these rank rules, because he was the emperor, except for the imperial historian who scolded him a few words, no one dared to do anything to him.

But Wang Chengen didn't dare to break this rule, and he was unwilling to break this rule.

However, Liu Ru didn't understand these things because she was young, and as soon as she came over, she was taken into Zhu Youxiao's arms and hugged by the middle-aged man, Zhu Youxiao pinched her face, and asked with a smile: "Have you missed me these days?" ”

Liu Ru blushed, lowered her head and said, "I think about it every day." ”
