Chapter 50: Why does my father attach so much importance to Zhu Tong?
What shocked him the most was that His Majesty seemed to be very angry with Zhu Tong.
It's an indescribable feeling!
There is an obvious difference from the normal relationship between the monarch and the minister.
Your Majesty has more than just an ordinary respect for this young man!
And one more expectation!
It's a very certain expectation!
Thinking of this, I suddenly remembered that the day before yesterday, the teacher Liu Bowen said that he would not let himself investigate the salt farm.
It seems that the teacher has long known His Majesty's importance and expectations for Zhu Tong.
I couldn't help but gasp, now I feel more and more that I can't understand the Zhu Tong in front of me, this is not the Zhu Tong I knew before.
suddenly thought that Zhu Tong was an orphan at the beginning, and he was more and more confused.
Then he looked at Liu Bowen and then at Zhu Tong, and felt that he had to ask the teacher about this matter.
After the matter of the horse was dealt with, Zhu Yuanzhang also dispersed everyone.
Watching Zhu Tong leave, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but feel satisfied.
We are really satisfied, and our performance just now is very good.
We didn't have to make arrangements in advance to do it in a clear way, and what is even more valuable is that there is no fear at all.
The powerful people see it must be cowering, let alone let him testify in front of the hundred officials as a powerful person who is a disaster to the people.
Thinking about it, an idea suddenly popped up in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart......
Leaving the palace, Zhu Tong returned home.
As soon as she pushed the door to the lobby, her sister Jiang Pan came over with an invitation and said:
"Brother, I just sent someone to send an invitation."
As he spoke, he handed the invitation to Zhu Tong.
Zhu Tong took the invitation and took a brief look, and then Xu Yi came out of the side, holding a gift box in his hand and said to Zhu Tong:
"Big brother's good luck is coming, even the Duke of Xinguo has come to invite you to the banquet, and there will be an endless stream of invitations from our family in the future."
"What are you going to do?"
Zhu Tong looked at Xu Yi carrying the gift box and asked curiously.
"Big brother! The first time you go to someone's mansion, it's always a little bad to be empty-handed! ”
"So my little brother has prepared a gift for you."
Xu Yi said and handed the gift box in his hand to Zhu Tong.
Zhu Tong immediately realized and said:
"Oops! You say how I forgot about this stubble, thanks to you. ”
Xu Yi smiled, sent Zhu Tong away with Jiang Pan, and went to the salt field alone.
Shinkoku Mansion.
Tang He prepared a banquet early, and deliberately passed his eldest son Tang Ding back from the army.
Tang Ding, wearing a suit of armor, came in through the gate and asked:
"Father, is there anything important about sending the child home in such a hurry?"
Tang He looked around at no one and said:
"Prepare for the Father a very important guest at home, and you are the eldest son who must attend!"
"Who makes my father so important?"
Tang Ding asked.
"This matter can't be told to you by your father during the war, you just need to know that this person has a lot to stake, and you should be careful."
"If nothing happens, he will also be your sister Yan Ke's husband in the future."
After Tang He said that, he got up and went to work on other things.
Tang Ding didn't understand what his father said for a while, but because of his father's instructions, he didn't ask, but just arranged a banquet with his father.
A moment later, there was a knock on the door.
Tang He hurriedly brought his daughter and son to greet him.
Tang Yanke couldn't understand why his father attached so much importance to Zhu Tong, and asked his father several times.
Father just said that he admired such a young man, who was courageous and responsible!
I also understood that my father just didn't want to say it clearly, so he simply didn't bother to ask about it.
But today, seeing my father in such a position, I don't feel full of doubts in my heart.
In the past, my father would never call my eldest brother home, except for some special festivals.
At this moment, Zhu Tong was led in by the housekeeper, with a gift in his hand.
Tang Yan saw Zhu Tong coming in, and immediately forgot the doubts in his heart, and only felt that he hadn't seen Zhu Gongzi for a long time.
I couldn't help but smile faintly on my face.
Seeing this, Tang He hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Zhu Tong's arm and said:
"Xiao Langjun, come and bring any gifts, see more!"
Seeing his father's attitude towards Zhu Tong, Tang Ding frowned and was puzzled, but he accompanied his father to lead Zhu Tong to the lobby.
Tang He introduced:
"Xiao Langjun, this is the dog Tang Ding, you haven't seen it yet, and you all serve the court in the army on weekdays."
"If there is anything in the future, you can ask him for help."
With Tang He's introduction, Tang Ding hurriedly saluted Zhu Tong and said:
"Hello Zhu Gongzi!"
"Hello Tang Gongzi!"
Zhu Tong also hurriedly saluted Tang Ding, still confused by Tang He's actions, why is this family so polite?
Did I really meet a nobleman?
Tang Yanke saluted Zhu Tong, smiled lightly, and his face was like a peach blossom.
Zhu Tong nodded slightly, seeing Tang Yanke's heart, a trace of joy filled his heart.
Seeing this, Tang He hurriedly said:
"Xiao Langjun! Yan Ke is about the same age as you, I heard the little girl say that you are very accomplished in calligraphy! ”
"Lord Tang, let you praise it! I only understand a little bit in the next, not as good as half a point for Ling Yan. ”
"Hahaha! Xiao Langjun is modest, the two of you can often come to the house to study and study, there are many cherished calligraphy and paintings at home. ”
"Thank you for your love!"
Zhu Tong said.
In a moment, several people came to the hall, and Tang Ding arranged Zhu Tong on the main seat according to his father's instructions.
The female dependents served on the side, and Tang He specially let his daughter Tang Yan serve beside Zhu Tong.
Tang He picked up his wine glass and said to Zhu Tong with a smile:
"Xiao Langjun, let's drink one!"
Zhu Tong hurriedly stood up and picked up the wine glass, Yan Ke beside him carefully poured wine for Zhu Tong, looked at Zhu Tong's panicked appearance, hid his face and secretly laughed.
The two drank to each other, and the soup continued:
"Xiao Langjun, this move can be said to have solved a big problem for His Majesty, it is really young, the old man admires it!"
"The Duke of the Kingdom has won the award, but he has only fulfilled some of the obligations that his subjects should fulfill, and the main thing is that His Majesty is in charge."
Seeing that his father and Zhu Tong were drinking, Tang Ding hurriedly got up and said:
"Zhu Gongzi will eliminate harm for the country and relieve His Majesty's worries, the last general will admire, and the last general will give Zhu Gongzi a cup."
"Tang Gongzi is in the army, he fought with the army, and he made great military achievements at a young age! He is a role model for my generation! ”
Zhu Tong said, Tang Yanke on the side hurriedly smiled and said:
"Childe, don't be in a hurry, wait for me to pour a full wine."
As he spoke, he took Zhu Tong's wine glass and poured it full of wine.
Zhu Tong smiled awkwardly at Tang Yanke, and muttered in his heart:
It's not that your brother is in such a hurry to toast, and he stood up to toast before I could sit down.
But on the surface, it says:
"Brother Ling's love, I am very excited, and I am grateful!"
Tang He smiled when he heard the words:
"The eldest nephew .. Xiao Langjun is really elegant, praising people for being so level, like... It's so similar! ”
"Unlike Ding'er, he is just a martial artist, in addition to being brave in battle to kill the enemy, he is very reckless on weekdays."
Zhu Tong drank with Tang Ding and said with a smile: "Guogong is a proud son of a tiger father!" I think Brother Tang is not only invincible on the battlefield, but also a great talent in both civil and military affairs! ”
