Chapter 305 There is a Father, and there is a Son
According to the history books, Zhu Yuanzhang was the most industrious emperor in history.
Hu Ye didn't believe this sentence before, but today he did.
As soon as he entered the Fengtian Temple, he saw an old man sitting on a dragon chair, with two eunuchs standing behind him, holding a book of music in his left hand and a brush in his right hand, pointing and drawing on the music from time to time.
It is already the willow top on the moon, and the average emperor estimates that at this time, he is already exercising on the belly of the harem beauty, but Zhu Yuanzhang is still here to review the chapters.
Maybe it's because Zhu Yuanzhang is old and doesn't have that function, but a person in his seventies and eighties can still stick to his post, Hu Ye thinks he deserves the word "the most hard-working emperor".
"Weichen Hu Ye, see the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live."
Hu Ye learned the rules on TV and saluted Zhu Yuanzhang, as the saying goes, the monarchs of heaven and earth can be worshipped, although Hu Ye is from the 21st world, he still has to integrate into the society of the Ming Dynasty, of course he has to worship when he sees the emperor.
Zhu Yuanzhang raised his head, put down the music and brush in his hand, and looked at Hu Ye carefully.
"Get up, this is not a court, so you don't need so many courtesies." Zhu Yuanzhang's old voice remembered.
Hu Ye stood up when he heard this, and felt that Zhu Yuanzhang's voice was not as brutal as the legend.
"I heard you were arrested this time?" Zhu Yuanzhang touched his beard, coughed, and then asked Hu Ye.
"Thank you for the emperor's concern, Weichen has returned safely." Hu Ye replied cautiously.
"Ahem, I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen at the feet of the Son of Heaven, it seems that I am old, and some people are unruly." Zhu Yuanzhang coughed, and then picked up the teacup next to him.
Hu Ye broke out in a cold sweat on his back when he heard this, he didn't know what Zhu Yuanzhang was talking about, could it be that this product had already seen that Zhu Di had a backbone in the back of his head?
"Poof! What kind of tea is this! Didn't you change the tea leaves in the palace? Go, hit the palace maid on duty with thirty boards. ”
Zhu Yuanzhang took a sip of tea. Immediately spit out, cursing loudly.
When Xiao Lizi heard this, he quickly knelt on the ground, "The emperor is angry, the emperor is angry, the slave and maid will do it, and this will do it." ”
Xiao Lizi stood up, took the teacup next to Zhu Yuanzhang, and then glanced at Ruan An, asking Ruan An to comfort Zhu Yuanzhang and not let him be angry again. Otherwise, there may be some moths.
Ruan An gave the eunuch a look and told him to hurry up.
Hu Ye felt that it was too right for him to bring birds to make tea, and he was worried about what to say now, so Zhu Yuanzhang threw out an olive branch of tea.
"Your Majesty, Weichen traveled this time, and occasionally got a kind of tea on the road, and specially came to present it to the emperor." Hu Ye said as he took out the bird's raw tea that had been prepared for a long time from his arms.
Zhu Yuanzhang opened his eyes, looked at Hu Ye for a while, and waved his hand at Xiao Lizi. Let Xiao Lizi take Hu Ye's tea leaves to make a pot. These days, he was harmed by the tea in the palace, and he was supposed to drink tea to refresh himself when he stayed up late to watch the concerto, but the tea was too difficult to drink, and the effect of refreshment was played. It's just that it's too uncomfortable in my mouth.
After Xiao Lizi left, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Hu Ye again, and he was sure that the problem of tea was in addition to him and Xiao Lizi. No one should know yet, I'm afraid that the palace maid who was beaten didn't know why she was beaten.
Therefore, he thought that it was impossible for Hu Ye to know that he was troubled by the problem of tea, and he could come up at this time to offer tea. Either it's a coincidence, or it's an unpredictable prophet.
Let's not talk about whether the tea is good or not, just that Hu Ye can take out the tea leaves, he is already a little surprised.
"I heard that you were recommended by the fourth child, and you helped the fourth child a lot in Beiping." After looking at it for a while, Zhu Yuanzhang asked Hu Ye directly.
Hu Ye knew that with Zhu Yuanzhang's temperament, he would definitely ask such a question, which also showed that he was still wary of his sons.
However, Hu Ye had already been prepared, so he replied calmly, "Back to the emperor, Weichen was in trouble in Mobei back then, and it was His Royal Highness's soldiers who found me and rescued me. When he was in Beiping, the kid did give His Royal Highness King Yan several ideas, and he also achieved some results. For this, His Royal Highness King Yan also praised me. ”
Hu Ye seemed a little proud, but he didn't hide it.
He knew that if he said it was vague, with Zhu Yuanzhang's temperament, he was a little suspicious.
But to put it simply, we just helped Zhu Di govern Beiping, but we also governed Nanjing, didn't we? You see, the Forgetful Building has been governed by us.
And this time you asked us to enter the palace to meet us, didn't we take the initiative to come, you have no reason to believe that we are Zhu Di's spies, right?
"Ahem, it seems that the fourth child still has some vision, you are indeed good." Zhu Yuanzhang coughed, and Ruan An hurriedly stepped forward to beat Zhu Yuanzhang on the back.
Hu Ye didn't know what Zhu Yuanzhang was saying about himself, was he guts? Is it insight? Or is it something else?
But no matter what you say, for the emperor, as long as it is a compliment, you must be grateful. If you haven't seen others die, do you still want to thank the Lord for your grace?
"Weichen Xie Emperor praised." Hu Ye said loudly.
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes flashed, he wanted to see through Hu Ye, he wanted to know if Hu Ye was pretending to be or if it was just like that.
But after watching it for a long time, I still haven't gained anything.
A moment later, Xiao Lizi returned, holding a teapot in his hand.
I saw Xiao Lizi come to Zhu Yuanzhang and poured Zhu Yuanzhang a cup of tea, and suddenly a fragrant smell wafted out.
Smelling the fragrance, Zhu Yuanzhang forgot about Hu Ye for a while, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then closed his eyes.
At first, he wanted to spit out the tea, but after a while, a sweet smell filled his mouth, and he couldn't let go of it in an instant.
Then another small sip, unwilling to open his eyes for a long time.
He seems to be thinking about his own journey, thinking that he has been a beggar and a monk back then, and he has never suffered any hardships.
Now, when he becomes the emperor, the whole world is his, isn't it the bitter and then sweet of this tea?
Hu Ye didn't know that a cup of tea could make Zhu Yuanzhang recall so many past events, but he only thought that Zhu Yuanzhang was called tea tasting, which was like Yin Changlong, one breath was a cup of tea, and it was called a violent thing.
"This tea is very good, give all the junk tea in the palace to the minister, I will never drink those defective products in the future." Zhu Yuanzhang slowly opened his eyes and said to Xiao Lizi.
The corners of Hu Ye's mouth jumped, and as soon as he said that Zhu Yuanzhang knew how to taste tea, the goods were exposed.
He knew that the tea leaves that could become the royal tea, which was not one in a million high-quality products, it was difficult to buy it outside, but he didn't expect it to become garbage in Zhu Yuanzhang's mouth.
But Hu Ye thinks about it, no matter how good the tea is, if you drink it for decades, it will become tasteless.
It's like big fish and meat every day, and suddenly you eat green vegetables, that's called food.
"Boy, what kind of tea is this?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked suddenly.
"Back to the emperor, Weichen called it bird tea." Hu Ye replied.
"Bird's tea? Why such a strange name? But it tastes good, I don't know if you still have it there. I think you should have brought as many as two taels just now, and you won't give them all, right? Zhu Yuanzhang seemed to be a little embarrassed to say.
"No, there are still seven or eight taels in Weichen's house." Hu Ye replied, in fact, he underreported, but he brought more than three catties from Beiping, and a large bag of seeds, just waiting to experiment in Nanjing to see if he can stand up.
"Ha Luha, yes, yes, tomorrow I will send someone to your house and bring me the seven or eight taels."
Zhu Yuanzhang laughed rarely, and then picked up the teacup and drank it again.
Hu Ye's eyes were two black lines, he just listened to Zhu Yuanzhang's meaning, it seemed that this product was a little embarrassed because he received two taels of tea from himself. It turns out that this product is to penetrate its own details and see how much it still has.
No, as soon as it is revealed, it will be revealed in its original form, and good things will become his Zhu family.
Hu Ye finally knew what Zhu Di would be so treacherous, this is his father, he must have his son, Zhu Di, his father is old and so treacherous, so can Zhu Di not be treacherous?
"Since the emperor likes it, Weichen naturally wants to give it all."
Hu Ye also had to make an expression that he could pay tribute to the emperor and that it was a great opportunity for him. In fact, I was already thinking in my heart, after I went back, I must hide the extra tea leaves, if I let Zhu Yuanzhang's nose smell a little bit, even the seeds will definitely be dug up by this goods.
"Ahem."
Zhu Yuanzhang coughed twice again, which frightened Xiao Lizi is face changed greatly.
"Your Majesty, I'll call the imperial doctor." Xiao Lizi put down the teapot and said that he was about to go out.
"Forget it, coughing is a common thing now, this is a reminder that I am still alive, if I don't cough one day,..." Zhu Yuanzhang stopped Xiao Lizi, and then said a very bleak word.
He also knew that his time was running out, and he was only surviving in the world.
"My emperor's lifespan is sky-high." Xiao Li Zi and Ruan An said at the same time.
"Qi Tian, it's just a fantasy, boy, you say yes?" After Zhu Yuanzhang finished coughing, he suddenly asked Hu Ye.
Hu Ye was still thinking about where to hide the tea, but Zhu Yuanzhang asked this question, and he didn't know how to answer.
Say that Zhu Yuanzhang's lifespan is Qi Tian, that product must think that he has the method of immortality, and when the time comes, this product will definitely think of finding himself for a secret recipe, maybe let Zhang Yuchu directly throw himself into the Dan furnace to refine the Dan.
said that Zhu Yuanzhang was about to hang up, I'm afraid that before the words came out, he was chopped into dumpling stuffing by the two tall guards outside the door.
After the last, Hu Ye could only say one sentence that had been tried and tested, "Long live my emperor, long live, long live." ”
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes flashed again, in fact, he had always had an immortal dream in his heart, otherwise he would not have let Heavenly Master Zhang Yuchu test Hu Ye before.
Just now, he tried Hu Ye again, but Hu Ye was prevaricated by Hu Ye with a panacea-style answer.
"Alright, let's get down to business." Zhu Yuanzhang knew that the question about immortality couldn't get anything out of Hu Ye's mouth, so he had to change the topic, "Tell me what you think about the fraud in this imperial examination." (To be continued......)
