Chapter 528: Why Are They All Here?
"Oh? Let's talk about the three considerations. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Zhu Hu's eyes lit up and asked.
"The first point, it's easy to understand, it's nothing more than to bring all these relatives of the kings of Fanbang to our Daming, so that they can have a good look at our Daming's demeanor."
Zhu Di is still a good-looking person in essence, he sits in such a big country, although those states are subservient to the Ming Dynasty, but if they have never been to the Ming Dynasty, they will inevitably be scornful, let them come, show off on the ground, and tell them that the Ming Dynasty is very powerful!
"Another one, that's what this king just said, the four emperor brothers are going to let us go to my Ming royal family, the prince and the grandson of the nobles. Dear. ”
Zhu Song laughed and said: "Two days ago, this king deliberately went to Honglu Temple and looked at the list of those Fanbangs, this time there are more than 40 Fanbangs, more than 40 royal families of Fanbang, how many princes and princesses?" ”
When he said this, Zhu Song shook his head, and without waiting for everyone to take advantage of it, he said: "As for the last point, it is just the king's guess." Brother Hu, do you know that during my Central Plains Warring States Period, there were protons? ”
"Proton?" Zhu Hu understood, but Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Youjiao were a little confused.
"During the Warring States period, there was a constant struggle between the two countries, and in order to maintain the temporary peace between the two countries, the two countries would send people to each other as hostages. And this hostage is mostly a prince or a prince and other people from noble backgrounds. Zhu Hu explained to everyone, "The father of the first emperor, Chu of Qin Zhuangxiang, used to be a proton. ”
When he said this, Zhu Hu's face turned slightly, and he said, "Brother Song, what do you mean ......?"
"Not bad!" Zhu Song nodded and said, "This is the most likely, otherwise, how could the Fourth Emperor Brother add such an inexplicable condition?" According to this king's guess, this may be eight or nine or ten. ”
"This ...... No way? Zhu Hu shook his head in disbelief, "This is not a country of two, but at least forty, if the imperial brother really plans to do this, can those guys agree?" ”
"Hmph, what if you don't agree?" Zhu Song snorted coldly and said: "Right now, it's people who are swordsmen and I'm fish and meat, if they don't agree, can they walk out of our Daming, or two!" ”
"It's incredible." Zhu Huwu shook his head, "I still don't believe it for my brother." ”
"It doesn't matter if you believe it or not, it's just the king's guess anyway." Zhu Song took a sip of tea to himself and continued: "Anyway, after the 'Hundred Nations Feast', everything will be clear. ”
……
The banquet hosted by the kings of various states and their royal families was held in the huge hall of the annex.
When Zhu Song and Zhu Hu came to Fanbang Courtyard, it was the beginning of the lanterns.
Horse-drawn carriages were parked on the street outside the courtyard, and a famous coachman was watching over them, each with a smile on their faces, and the gate of the courtyard was lit up with lights.
"Hey, it really looks like that, if you don't know, you think there is a happy event in which house!" Zhu Song got out of the carriage, wearing a robe that was not very luxurious, and although the lights were bright, no one noticed him, so no one recognized him.
Zhu Hu and Zhu Gaochi are different from Zhu Song, after all, they represent the Ming court, and they can't let the court lose face, so they are dressed very luxuriously, quite a bit of a landlord and old wealth.
"Uncle Songhuang, these are all moths from Honglu Temple." Zhu Gaochi's body is a little 'abundant. He touched the black whiskers on his lips and said, "I really don't know what they think, it's just a dinner, why make it so grand?" Could it be that all this costs nothing? ”
Well, this kid is starting to feel sorry for the silver.
"Hey, these don't cost a few silvers." Zhu Song replied and said, "Let's go, let's go in quickly, this king will tell you, the cook in this courtyard, although it is not as good as the cook in this king's house, but there are still two brushes, and we have to eat and drink enough today." ”
Hearing Zhu Song's words, Zhu Hu suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, that is, this brother, if he changed any prince, he would never have such a good attitude, accompanying the guest is accompanying the guest, how can he just think that he is full of food and drink.
Everyone had just entered the courtyard, and before they even had time for the celebrities to report it, they saw men and women in luxurious clothes, and even children all the way into the courtyard.
This made Zhu Song stunned for a moment, and even thought that he had come to the wrong courtyard for a while.
You know, this is the residence of the kings and royal families of Fanbang, and the guards are still strict on weekdays, but what is the situation today? Although there are guards, they are nothing, so why did they let all these men and women in?
"What's going on?" Zhu Song stopped, looked at the richly dressed men and women with some astonishment, and asked the soldiers and generals guarding at the gate, "You tell this king, what are you doing in the other courtyard?" ”
"Back to the prince's words." The guard general naturally recognized Zhu Song's words, he first saluted Zhu Song, and then said: "Today, the Lord Long Live announced in the court that he wanted Honglu Temple to entertain the kings and royal families of various states tonight, and everything was originally being prepared in an orderly manner, but it was ...... at noon."
When he said this, the soldier paused, and said: "At noon, Long Live Lord is here to pass down the will, because this time the royal families of all states are here with princes and princesses, in order to entertain these young people, long live the name of my Ming Dynasty by the relatives of the royal family, the children of the princes and nobles to attend the dinner, and sit at the same table with the princes and princesses of the various states. ”
And this said? Could it be that you really want to make a blind date?
This time, Zhu Song said, even Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Hu all looked weird.
Shaking his head, Zhu Song was about to enter the courtyard, but at this time, a cheerful voice stopped him: "Brother Hu, Brother Song, Gao Chi, slow, slow, wait for us, hahaha!" ”
Hearing this familiar voice, everyone's figures suddenly stopped, turned their heads to look, but saw Zhu Rong, the king of Min, and Zhu Gaosui, the king of Han, coming together, by the way, there was also Zhu Huixuan, like a small tail, following behind.
Seeing this person, Zhu Song suddenly said, "No, right? Why are you all here? ”
"My nephew has seen Uncle Wuhuang, Uncle Songhuang, and Brother Prince!" Zhu Gaosui saluted Zhu Hu and took over the conversation: "Uncle Songhuang, you are right, why can't we come?" ”
"Why can't you come?" Zhu Song's eyes widened, and he said, "You are not in the lake. South play? It's not that it will take a month to return to Nanjing, what's the matter? Did you fly back? ”
"We have been back a long time ago, but we have been taking it with us in Jiaxing Mansion and have not returned to Nanjing City." Zhu Yang took a few steps forward, hugged Zhu Xuankun, and said: "Besides, the Four Emperor Brothers ordered our royal family to also come to the other courtyard to entertain the royal families of various states, and we are also responding to the call of the Four Emperor Brothers, aren't we?" Come, Xuankun, call an uncle? ”
"Well, I'm too lazy to tell you!" Zhu Song pursed his lips, turned around and walked into the courtyard very simply.
Later, Zhu Xuan and Zhu Gaosui were much more casual, holding Zhu Xuankun, chatting with Zhu Xuan and Zhu Gaochi, and going to the other courtyard.
Compared with the previous few days, the layout in the Fanbang courtyard is very different, and the layout at the gate is very similar, the same lanterns are colorful, and there are joys everywhere, but there are many more busy figures with various trays in their hands.
"Brother Song, I heard that among the people who came to Daming this time, a few guys seem to be a little dissatisfied with our Daming, come and tell Brother Wei, which ones are they?" While looking around, Zhu Yang asked Zhu Song.
Zhu Song was not surprised at all by Zhu Yang's question, this guy is the master who has nothing to do, even if he dragged Zhu Gaosui to the lake a few days ago. Playing in the south is really boring to stay in Nanjing City.
At this moment, the 'Hundred Kingdoms Feast' is about to be held, and the Ming Emperor has come to so many Fanbang kings and royal families, if Zhu Yang doesn't make some moves, it won't be him.
"What do you want to do? Brother Zhen, you can have a snack, don't make any more mess at this juncture. Zhu Song's tone was somewhat helpless, "The Hundred Kingdoms Feast is about to be held, since the Four Emperor Brothers have brought them all, they naturally have their own plans, don't disrupt the Four Emperor Brothers' plans!" ”
"Oh?" Zhu Yang raised his eyebrows, and the excitement on his face became even stronger, "Just tell Brother Wei, Brother Wei will promise you that you will never trouble those guys, after all, they are also my people!" ”
Mother. Eggs, it's strange to believe you!
Looking at the expression on Zhu Yan's face, Zhu Song knew that the goods were definitely not thinking about anything good, and immediately replied angrily: "You have the ability, you go to Jinyiwei to ask for information, anyway, don't want to get any news from me." If something really happens at that time, it has nothing to do with me. ”
"Cheng, Cheng, can I go to Zhang Fuxing?" Zhu Xuankun's face showed impatience, he patted Zhu Xuankun's little head, and said: "Xuankun, don't think about your father like this in the future, you think too far about everything, you have to live in the present, no matter what happens to him in the future!" ”
"Mom. Egg, is this my son or your son? The corners of Zhu Song's mouth twitched, and he couldn't just knock Zhu Yang to the ground and beat him hard, he was too arrogant.
In this way, everyone laughed at each other and walked all the way to the back garden of the Fanbang Courtyard.
When I arrived at the gate of the garden, I heard the noisy conversation and joy in the garden, mixed with the sound of children playing, and it seemed that there were many children inside.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, several princes, the younger ones have already prepared wine and food in the courtyard on the side. Please come with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and a few princes! "In the courtyard, Honglu Siqing has already arranged everything.
When Zhu Song and the others appeared here, an attendant immediately came over to greet Zhu Song and them, and directly led them towards another large garden.
……
Entering the garden, it felt more lively than the biggest wedding scene Zhu Song had ever seen in his previous life.
I saw that the garden was brightly lit, illuminated as if it was daytime, and various long tables had been set up around the garden, which were full of fresh melons and fruits, preserved fruit snacks and dishes and wines.
Among them, the most peculiar are the giant hot pots in the middle of the garden.
This is derived from Lao Jing. The city's high-barrel hot pot is six feet high. It covers an area of nine feet, and around the giant hot pot are sliced mutton, sashimi, mushrooms, and seasonal vegetables......
Some young men and women with different appearances, with obvious exotic styles, without exception, dressed extremely luxuriously, stood in front of the giant hot pots, looking at the boiling water that was constantly bubbling, and their eyes were full of curiosity.
"Brother Song, did you also order someone to make this big hot pot?" Zhu Yang and they had naturally eaten hot pot, but when they saw this giant hot pot for the first time, they were also taken aback.
Zhu Hu's expressions were not much better, such a big pot was enough for twelve or thirteen people to use at the same time.
"Well, this thing, the little brother just put forward a concept." Zhu Song nodded, this thing was originally specially created to cope with various banquets, and now it is nothing to use it.
Anyway, when there are a lot of people, eating hot pot is the easiest, and it saves time, isn't it?
"How? When I get back, do I want to send you to the house? Seeing the expression on Zhu Yan's face, Zhu Song knew that this guy really wanted one, "But you have to wait, although this thing is not a technical job, but it also has some requirements for skills, three days, and you will be sent to the house in three days." ”
"Hey, this dare is good!" Zhu Yang was immediately happy, "I decided so happily, when I entertain people for my brother in the future, I will put this big hot pot in front of everyone's eyes, that feeling, it's so cool!" ”
"It's good if you're happy!" Zhu Song muttered, then turned his head to look at the attendant, and said, "Those are the princes and princesses of various states, right?" And what about the kings of the states? ”
"Back to the prince, because there is some noise here, and the kings of the various states are still in the courtyard, do you want to invite them over now?" The squire replied with a bowed brow.
"Hey, let Prince Ben and the others accompany them, it's better for them to hide in the courtyard by themselves." Zhu Gao snorted coldly and said, "Uncle Fifth Emperor, Uncle Huanghuang, Uncle Songhuang, nephew is going to ask someone to let them come over?" ”
"What's the hurry?" Zhu Yang turned his head and glanced at Zhu Gaochi, his eyes rolled, and he seemed to have some bad idea, "That's it, let's play a game!" ”
"Brother Wow, don't mess around!" Zhu Lu frowned slightly, this kid is good at everything, he is a person who is all his life, why is he still a child?
"Hehe, Brother Hu, little brother, this is not nonsense!" Zhu Yang smiled, "Didn't the kings of those Fanbangs hide quietly?" But don't forget, there are so many princes and princesses! ”
