"It's actually Lord Sun, a rare guest, hehe, the official couldn't welcome him from afar, and I ask Lord Sun not to blame him." In his forties, Zheng Neng, the tall and burly, but already a little rich, stood outside the hall, and smiled at Sun Xianzong, who was walking towards him.

"How dare you, but Hou Ye Yue is not seen, not only the demeanor is still the same, but also more blessed, hehe, can be a master of a product at the age of not confused, since the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, there are very few." Sun Xianzong returned the salute with a smile, and looked at this first-class military general of the current dynasty, with a look of envy on his face that was not concealed.

Hearing this, Zheng Neng's waist couldn't help but straighten up subconsciously, and his mouth was quite modest. "Where, in fact, Zheng received this high position without merit, and he was quite embarrassed in his heart, and there were many old ministers with meritorious deeds, but he didn't want to, this burden fell on Zheng's shoulders."

"Hehe, Master Hou is too modest." Sun Xianzong couldn't help but laugh. Raising his hand and waving behind him, two sturdy men cautiously carried a huge wooden box with them.

"This is ......" Zheng Neng couldn't help but be stunned, and looked at Sun Xianzong with a puzzled expression.

"Hehe, Hou Ye is promoted, at that time, Xianzong was on an errand in the field, and he couldn't come to congratulate, although his brother followed the ceremony, but he still felt that he didn't want to go, and now he came to see Hou Ye, so he naturally wanted to make up for it, if Hou Ye didn't give up, he would accept these gadgets." Sun Xianzong winked at the two family members.

Knowing that, he placed the large box in front of the hall, then lifted the lid and peeled off the straw that had been placed in it, revealing its contents. When Zheng Neng saw it for the first time, he couldn't help but gasp, and his eyes froze, like two javelins deeply rooted in the soil, and he couldn't move anymore.

A pair of translucent bottles about one and a half feet high, purple and blue, under the illumination of the light, exude a dazzling and dazzling brilliance, a circle of light swims on the bottle body, the two bottles are round and flawless, although there is no other decoration, but in this way, it shows a simple and beautiful beauty.

"This, this is really too precious, Lord Sun, your gift is really ......" Zheng Neng swallowed his saliva with difficulty, his mouth was a little incoherent, and his eyes were completely greedy and possessive, as if at this moment, this was not a dignified court official, a famous marquis, but like a beggar who saw an ingot of gold fall at his feet.

-------------------- "This pair of purple and blue bottles was inadvertently purchased by Xianzong, knowing that Hou Ye likes this kind of ornaments, he will borrow flowers to offer Buddha." Seeing Sun Neng's expression, Sun Xianzong couldn't help but pouted secretly, but his face was still smiling.

Zheng Neng took a deep breath, bowed deeply to Sun Xianzong, and said earnestly: "Lord Sun's good intentions can be said to have found Zheng's lifeline, haha, if you don't accept it, it seems that Zheng is too pedantic, so Zheng is cheeky but disrespectful." ”

He looked at the two bottles again, and then thought that Sun Xianzong was still standing outside the hall with himself, with the spicy sun on his head, and couldn't help but say a little proudly: "Oh, I'm busy looking at this thing, and it's rude to let the distinguished guest stand here." ”

Zheng Neng hurriedly invited Sun Xianzong into the front hall, and after some cold noise, Zheng Neng looked at the pair of purple and green glass bottles that had been placed in place, and couldn't help but sigh: "I have experienced this great change in the Ming Dynasty, and Zheng has also suffered bad luck. Unexpectedly, with the blessing of the emperor, he finally returned to the Ming Dynasty with all the robes, so he was fortunate today. Speaking of which, it is still the emperor's Hongfu. ”

Hearing the mention of the Emperor Taishang, the smile on Sun Xianzong's face gradually dissipated, and was replaced by a gloomy color.

Seeing Sun Xianzong like this, Zheng Neng scratched his forehead with some embarrassment: "Look at Zheng's mouth, hehe, it has annoyed Lord Sun." ”

"Where, the emperor has returned to Ming, this is already a great blessing, and Xianzong has nothing to worry about." Sun Xianzong laughed, picked up the tea and took a sip: "Speaking of which, Xianzong really has something to ask the Hou Ye for advice." ”

"Hehe, don't you dare to ask for advice, if Lord Sun has something to say, just say it clearly, if Zheng can help, he will naturally help him." Zheng Neng smiled, staring at Sun Xianzong without blinking. secretly pondered Sun Xianzong's intentions in his heart.

"I heard that Hou Ye's sister-in-law is now the chief soldier of Xuanfu and is in charge of the military power of my Ming Xuanfu town. Now, the emperor is living in the land of Xuanfu, so Xianzong specially came with a cheeky face, hoping that the marquis can inform General Jiang and ......" Sun Xianzong smiled and stroked his brows and said.

"Although Lord Sun is relieved, what kind of person is the emperor, how dare my sister-in-law be disrespectful?" Zheng Neng promised with a smile. "Besides, Zheng can get rid of the thief's hands, which is also the emperor's favor, no matter how Zheng is, how can he dare to disrespect the emperor?"

"That's good, by the way, there is still one thing, Xianzong recently said that the emperor was in the Xuanfu, angrily beheaded the eunuch Liu Shanzhong, reprimanded the envoy of the holy driver, and refused to return to the Beijing Division. When Xianzong heard this, he was quite regretful. Sun Xianzong's face was pale, and the corner of his eyes swept towards Zheng Neng.

When Zheng Neng heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little gloomy, and sighed to himself for a while: "I'm ashamed to say it, I'm a noble and noble, and I have received the great favor of His Majesty, but now I can't stop the Son of Heaven from insisting, and I regret it very much in my heart." "When the court discussed, Zheng Neng and the others were quite excited and strongly opposed to the specifications of the Emperor's holy car, but the problem was that the Son of Heaven expressed his consideration in person, but when he turned his face, his words were completely regarded as farts.

But they could only stare dryly, indignant, but helpless. Now the nobles' independent backbone Zhang Fu and his ilk died in Tumubao, and most of the rest of the nobles were captured by the tile thorns and released.

In this way, in the eyes of the Son of Heaven and those officials, they have another layer of indescribable things, in short, although the Son of Today has a lot of grace to promote them, the nobles of the south, but in matters of politics, there is almost no intention to ask them about the opinions of these nobles.

In a word, the original hot noble class of the Ming Dynasty was abandoned by those in power after the Tumubao Change, and gradually declined. This also makes them quite depressed. Just like Zheng Neng, since the last time the Son of Heaven did not listen to their objections and insisted on receiving the Emperor Taishang with the lowest standard treatment, Zheng Neng was angry and simply fell ill in the house, and his body has not yet "recovered".

"Actually, Hou Ye doesn't have to feel too guilty, it's not a good thing for the Son of Heaven to do this." After determining that Zheng Neng was revealing his true feelings, combined with what he had done before, Sun Xianzong finally determined Zheng Neng's intentions and decided to test them.

"Huh?" Zheng Neng couldn't help but be stunned, looked Sun Xianzong up and down a few times, and said with a little displeasure: "Why did Lord Sun say this?" When the son does this today, we are still the courtiers for the emperor's grievances, you are the emperor's relatives, why do you still say such cool things? ”

"Hehe, Master Hou, you have misunderstood Xianzong." Sun Xianzong couldn't help but smile, but his eyes fell on those people in the hall.

"You all stand down, Zheng Xiong, stay outside the hall, don't let the blinding things disturb Ben Hou and Lord Sun to taste this pair of purple and green bottles." Zheng Neng shouted in a deep voice in understanding.

After a while, everyone in the hall was scattered, and only a few fierce generals stood outside the hall with the hilts of their knives on their waists.

"The emperor is in Zheng, and he has the grace of regeneration, and Zheng is not the kind of bastard who knows how to repay his kindness. Lord Sun, please tell us clearly. After all, he is a battlefield general, once Zheng Neng put away Fang Cai's greedy and deceitful face, between his eyes, the essence of light appeared, and the momentum of a battlefield warrior suddenly overflowed.

Sun Xianzong couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "It is also a great blessing to treat all the nobles with a cold face today, so that the emperor can finally accept the hearts of these nobles." ”

-------------------- early dynasty, court meeting, Zhu Qizhen sat firmly on the dragon chair, looking at the envoy who welcomed the emperor's holy drive with cold eyes, and Li Shi knelt in the hall during the ceremony, choking up and accusing them of what they had suffered in the Xuan Mansion.

None of the civil and military officials, as well as Zhu Qiyu, who had already learned the truth of the matter from various channels, showed any shocked expressions on their faces, all of them seemed to be listening to someone tell a story that was as plain as boiled water.

“…… Your Majesty is in charge of Weichen. In the end, it is not an exaggeration to describe Li Shi's performance at the moment with tears in tears. But after howling for a long time, he didn't hear anyone stand up for him, and no one expressed his opinion on the matter, which made Li Shi feel like a clown performing in the main hall.

"What Li Qing said, I think you have all heard it." Zhu Qiyu waited for Li to finish speaking, and then he spoke. "Even if my servants make mistakes, they will not die. However, the emperor has suffered a lot since the Northern Hunt, so that his heart and surname have changed greatly, and I feel the same way, so I will not mention this matter. ”

"Your Majesty." Wang Wen rushed out first and touted it. "To be able to put yourself in such a position and think about the emperor, Your Majesty is really a benevolent king."

More than a dozen ministers also rushed out, expressing their admiration for Zhu Qiyu, the benevolent son of the Great Ming, who was as turbulent as the water of the Yellow River.

The extremely numb compliments and flattery were endless, and I heard that the ministers who knew what kind of goods they were today, one by two, all rolled their eyes with cold faces.

Zhu Qiyu, who was praised by these people, cleared his throat and motioned to all the sycophants to pause first, and after all the ministers returned to their shifts, Zhu Qiyu said: "Everyone. Today, I want to wait with Qing to discuss the matter of welcoming the emperor back to Beijing, what do you think? ”
