Chapter 648: The Maritime Match (I)
Standing far away from the familiar liquor shop in Xicheng, Qin Kan saw with his own eyes how outrageous Zhu Houzhao's cheap way was.
is still dressed as a vulgar shopkeeper, with a dusty white handkerchief on his shoulders, no crown on his head, his clean hair is slightly messily pulled into a bun, and he is indiscriminately fixed with an inconspicuous wooden branch......
Liu Liangnu was still wearing a coarse cloth hairpin skirt, looking cold and cold, standing calmly in the wine shop, holding the wine spoon high, gently scooping the apricot blossom wine brewed in the wooden barrel into the wine jug, her smart beautiful eyes occasionally glanced at Zhu Houzhao, and there was a tenderness in her eyes that perhaps even she had not noticed.
Qin Kan stood quietly from a distance and watched them for a long time, and suddenly realized that this pair was actually quite suitable, one pretended to understand with confusion, and the other pretended to be confused, perfect match. If the smile on Zhu Houzhao's face wasn't so cheap at this moment, the scene in the distant wine shop would be perfect.
The corners of his mouth twitched, and as soon as Qin Kan took a step, a sturdy figure swooped in front of him.
Zhang Yong was dressed as an idle man in the market, with a short coat of earthy yellow coarse cloth, a live buckle casually tied with a straw rope around his waist, and a few mud spots and stains were deliberately smeared on his originally white and beardless face.
"Father-in-law Zhang walked and planted a pit?" Qin Kan bowed his hand.
The corners of Zhang Yong's mouth drooped, and he sighed: "Don't mention it." Your Majesty is a guy in the store, if the miscellaneous family wears a python robe and goes to this wine shop for a stop, His Majesty will not be able to eat the miscellaneous family ...... alive."
After speaking, Zhang Yong lowered his head and looked at his khaki coarse cloth clothes, as if he was wrapped in a layer of, and grinned in disgust.
"Grandpa, you are the closest to Your Majesty, persuade Your Majesty, Your Majesty is today's son, not a guy in a wine shop, you can't do it all the time. Fortunately, the liquor store is surrounded by factory guards to protect it. So this matter didn't spread, but the paper can't contain the fire sooner or later, in case one day it is known by those broken mouths of the officials and the imperial historians in the court, it will be a storm again. The scolding of His Majesty will fly to the celebrant again. Maybe I'll have to hook up with your grandfather and the miscellaneous family......"
Qin Kan was also worried: "Your Majesty likes Liu Liangnu very much." I just want to exchange sincerity for sincerity, and I don't want to be tarnished by a position of power, and Your Majesty insists on this. What can I do. ”
Zhang Yong stomped his feet heavily: "It's a sin!" Although the miscellaneous family is a eunuch, but also know that the water is a matter of course, His Majesty and the little lady are obviously enough, according to the miscellaneous family, His Majesty beat her horizontally into the cave room and hug, if the little lady refuses to pick out her eyeballs as a bubble to step on! ”
Qin Kan sighed even heavier.
A matter of male and female affairs that even eunuchs can clearly understand, Zhu Houzhao should really review whether he has lived to the belly of a dog at this age.
…………
…………
When Qin Kan walked into the wine shop, Zhu Houzhao was wiping the table with the dirty white towel, his movements were very skillful, and an old table was polished by him.
Liu Liangnu, who was silently scooping wine with her back to Zhu Houzhao, raised her eyes and saw Qin Kan walking in, Liu Liangnu's pretty face suddenly flashed a little panicked, with a faint look of fear, and her steps even unconsciously took two steps back.
All this fell in Qin Kan's eyes, Qin Kan couldn't help but be stunned, and soon he figured out the reason.
I am afraid that the identities of him and Zhu Houzhao have already been revealed, an emperor and a prince, the difference is that Zhu Houzhao and her see each other every day, and they are so cheap, Liu Liangnu has a secret affection for him, so she can't be afraid of Zhu Houzhao, but Qin Kan is different, he is a national prince, and he is a murderous national prince, the Beijing division is full of all kinds of legends about him, such a famous name, a normal woman will be afraid, judging from Liu Liangnu's performance, she should be a woman among women......
smiled gently at Liu Liangnu, Liu Liangnu bowed a little crampedly, Qin Kan didn't speak, Zhu Houzhao walked up, the white scarf was neatly put on his shoulder, and his waist was bent down at the same time, and the whole set of actions went smoothly, if anyone said that this was not a natural shop guy, the factory guard would not agree.
"Guest officer, please, there is an empty seat inside......
Qin Kan sighed, and without saying a word, he dragged Zhu Houzhao's sleeve and walked out.
The corners of Liu Liangnu's mouth twitched, and she smiled with a little sadness.
Qin Kan pulled Zhu Houzhao until he walked to the corner of the alley outside the wine shop before letting go, and then turned around and stared at him: "Your Majesty, the minister wants to talk to you about ...... life."
"You're idle today? If you're very idle, help me go in and sit down, business hasn't been very good recently, you go to a personal market, and after drinking, give her a reward of one hundred and eighty taels of silver by the way......"
"I don't want to drink today, I just want to talk about life with you."
"Okay, let's talk quickly, I have to go back to do things, let me ask you first, every day I am half the time as an emperor and half of the time as a shopkeeper, do you think this kind of life is successful?"
Qin Kan was stunned, it was hard to imagine that a faint gentleman who had left a name for the ages could ask such a profound and deafening question in his mouth, the shopkeepers these days were not in vain, and the wisdom really came from the working people.
“…… Succeed. ”
Qin Kan had to admit that Zhu Houzhao's life was indeed very successful, and he could pretend to be cold and cheap, such a life was perfect.
"So, you don't need to talk about a successful life, just look at it from afar, is there anything else?"
"Yes. The minister also wants to talk to His Majesty about his ideals......"
Zhu Houzhao sighed: "I nodded and humbled to entertain the drinkers, but you talked to me about ideals, I am very busy!" ”
"The minister's mouth is clumsy, if His Majesty doesn't have time to talk about ideals with His Majesty, the minister plans to go back to find a few imperial historians and historians to talk about ideals with His Majesty......"
This time it was Zhu Houzhao's turn to be stunned, silent for a long time, and said gloomily: "I found that your life is more successful than mine...... Say, you took the wrong medicine today, and came to me to say these brainless words. ”
Qin Kan straightened his clothes, made a formal bow to Zhu Houzhao, and said: "Your Majesty, a successful life requires at least an invincible sailor, otherwise your life is like a ......."
After looking around left and right, Qin Kan's eyes lit up, and he stretched out his hand and pointed at Zhang Yong, who was watching from afar and did not dare to come, and found the most appropriate analogy: "...... Just like Grandpa Zhang, it is mutilated and incomplete. ”
*******************************************************************
The eastern suburbs of Beijing are covered with snow, the earth is covered in silver, and there is a dazzling white generality as far as the eye can see.
Zhu Houzhao was shocked by Qin Kan's words, so he had to decide to be absent from work.
Dressed in a luxurious and fashionable fur wrapped around his body, with half a foot of snow under his feet, Zhu Houzhao was playful, bent down and saved a heavy snow ball, threw it into the distance, and then put his frozen red hands to his mouth and took a few breaths of hot air, with a satisfied smile on his face.
"Say, what is the matter with the water master who suddenly said today? For no reason, what do you do as a water builder? I remember that we have sailors in Dengzhou, Ningbo, and Fuzhou in the Ming Dynasty. ”
Qin Kan sighed: "Your Majesty, those ships of the Navy Division are dilapidated, the generals are outnumbered, and they are unbearable, relying on them to fight, it is better to draw a circle and curse the enemy to drown......"
Zhu Houzhao glanced at Qin Kan with hatred, and said dissatisfiedly: "You said that my Great Ming Water Master is too sloppy, right?" Tell me first, why do you want to build a water master? This is not child's play, let's move a few times here, it means millions of taels of silver, don't be careful. ”
"The builder of the water is naturally in order to deal with the Japanese invaders."
Zhu Houzhao's brows furrowed deeply: "The Japanese invaded my sea frontier again?" ”
Qin Kan sighed: "Your Majesty, in what year will the Japanese invade my maritime frontier?" My Ming coastal area has become the back garden of the Ming Dynasty, when you want to come, you can take what you want, you can take what you want, since the Hongwu year, the Japanese are my Ming ringworm scabies, don't die, but every year it will hurt us to open the flesh several times. ”
Looking at Zhu Houzhao deeply, Qin Kan said slowly: "Your Majesty wants to be a martial emperor who will carry forward the past and forge ahead into the future, can you get rid of this hundred-year trouble?" ”
Zhu Houzhao's spirit was finally a little uplifted.
The young man loves to play and have fun, but he also has great ambitions, fantasizing about being able to do something great that his ancestors have never done, especially after the Jiangxi party pacified the rebellion of King Ning, Zhu Houzhao's heart became more and more high, and Qin Kan's words were lightly agitated, which ignited the fighting spirit in his chest.
"The hundred-year-old plague must be eradicated, and it must be eradicated in my hands!" Zhu Houzhao waved his hand heavily, angry at Xiaohan.
"Your Majesty swallows the world in a downright manner, and the minister dares not to attach himself to the tail." Qin Kan smiled and arched his hand.
"Don't boast about it first, tell me first, why did you suddenly think of eradicating the scourge of the Japanese invaders? There's always a reason, right? ”
Qin Kan smiled, and suddenly changed the topic without a head: "Is there a shortage of silver under Your Majesty?" ”
"Huh?" Zhu Houzhao obviously couldn't keep up with Qin Kan's jumping thinking, so he stayed for a long time and nodded hesitantly.
Qin Kan expressed his dissatisfaction with his unfirm attitude towards the lack of silver, and put himself in his shoes, others asked him if he lacked silver, he had to nod his head like pounding garlic, no matter what income, the money was always not enough to spend, and he needed to hesitate when asked if he lacked virtue.
So Qin Kan was kind and tempting: "Your Majesty, you see, the Jingshi Imperial Palace was originally the Yuan Dadu Palace, and was later expanded by the Yongle Emperor, and the local government has always had a habit of not repairing the government, and the Jingshi also has the tradition of not repairing the palace, counting from the Yongle year, more than one hundred and fifty years, right?" The palace is dilapidated everywhere, and every year only a little repair of the leaky roof of the palace, the internal affairs government will allocate tens of thousands of taels of silver, and when the year is bad, stretch out your hand to the household, not only can you not get the silver, but you have to spit on your face......"
"What do you say all this has to do with the Waiko Builder?" Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but ask.
"Of course it matters, if we don't kill the widows, how can we make money?" (To be continued......)
