Volume 3: Tempered into Steel Chapter 67: It's Coming

"Why are you taking medicine again?" Zhu Qizhen was full of displeasure.

Jin Qi saw it in his eyes, and immediately squeezed out a flattering smile on his face, and said in a girlish manner: "Long live the lord, the last two meals of medicine, you will eat it obediently, or will the slave feed you?" ”

A bad cold hit Zhu Qizhen's body, and goosebumps appeared all over his body, even though he couldn't drink this bitter medicine soup before, now he quickly took the medicine bowl and drank it all.

"Your Majesty, you are so ......"

"Okay, okay, stop!"

Zhu Qizhen was really afraid that he would say a stick word, even if he thought about it himself, he almost vomited the overnight meal in his stomach.

"Okay, Jin Qi, who did you learn from? Why are you so motherly now? Anyway, you used to be too...... Don't let me whip you. Zhu Qizhen warned.

Jin Qi's face stiffened, and he knelt down and said: "The slave maid also wants Banzai to take medicine well, the slave maid is guilty, and the slave maid is disgusting." ”

"Don't keep all the bells and whistles in the future, I don't like it, I don't like it!" Zhu Qizhen emphasized, but there was a strange feeling in his tone.

"The Sword Comes"

"Your Majesty, Lord Meng Jianmeng asks to see you." Jin Yiwei came in to report.

"Meng Jian? What is he here for? Zhu Qizhen asked.

"Lord Meng said that he had figured it out, and he came to report to the emperor." Jin Yiwei said.

"If the emperor doesn't want to see Lord Meng, the slave will block it for you." Jin Qi tried to say.

"Call him in." Zhu Qizhen glanced at Jin Qi.

After a while, Meng Jian appeared in front of Zhu Qizhen, knelt down towards Zhu Qizhen and shouted, "Minister Meng Jian......"

"Alright, there's something to say."

Meng Jian was stopped by Zhu Qizhen before he kowtowed, but he still stubbornly finished the ritual before he got up.

"Your Majesty, the minister already has the answer to the question you asked a few days ago." Meng Jian looked at Zhu Qizhen, his eyes full of confidence.

Zhu Qizhen wondered in his heart, he really couldn't remember what to say to this Meng Jian.

Could it be that I was drinking that day, and I asked something in a daze?

But it was impossible to say this, Zhu Qizhen looked at Meng Jian silently and said, "Then what? ”

Meng Jian seemed to expect Zhu Qizhen to say this, so he replied: "It was the minister who disappointed the emperor, and the minister really lost the knowledge of his ancestors, and he was ashamed of his ancestors!" Thanks to the emperor's generals for waking up, thank you Lord Longen! ”

Zhu Qizhen seems to have grasped the key word, the knowledge of the ancestors, and he understands it all when he thinks about it again.

Harm, what did I think, I just met him and insulted his ancestors, this person is quite able to remember, and he will come to me again.

After thinking about the cause and effect, Zhu Qizhen immediately showed an encouraging smile: "You can tell me and listen to it." ”

Meng Jian looked at Zhu Qizhen's expression, and the confidence in his heart was a little more sufficient.

After the deviation, it is seamlessly connected to the yes.

"Back to the emperor, the minister answered your question: the people are precious, the society is secondary, and the monarch is light!

This is what my ancestor of the Meng family, Yasheng Mencius, said, which was intended to tell the emperor at that time that this world is the world of the people, not the world of princes, and it is necessary to put the people first. ”

Zhu Qizhen made a listening expression, Meng Jian's heart was settled, and then said:

"The minister was thinking at the time, Taizu inherited the fortune of the sky, became the emperor, seized Yanyun to drive the Tartars, and created the prosperous era of the Ming Dynasty, naturally he was the emperor who shook the past and the present, so it seems that what the ancestors said is not necessarily all right.

After the emperor inherited the great treasure, he made great efforts to defend the country, and he took the lead in defending the country, and he had the style of Taizu and Taizong, so the ministers thought that they should take the monarchy as the key link, and the sun, moon, mountains and rivers were all used.

But I didn't expect Your Majesty to have such a benevolent heart, putting all the people in the world first, and putting the ancestors and society first, which is really the capital of the holy monarch and a model in the world! Admired! ”

Zhu Qizhen looked at Meng Jian, who was talking, and ten thousand grass and mud horses passed through in his heart, what is this, can we not go around the bend? I've forgotten what I want you to do.

The fanaticism in Meng Jian's eyes did not diminish at all, and he looked at Zhu Qizhen and continued:

"The minister thinks that the ban on opening the sea can not only make the people rich, but also collect sea taxes to make the country strong, and promote His Majesty's heroic appearance, which is a good thing that kills three birds with one stone, please allow Your Majesty!"

Okay, going around such a big circle, I finally got to the point, and it was in vain the foreshadowing I planted.

Zhu Qizhen nodded solemnly and said: "Aiqing's words are very sincere, for the sake of the people, for the sake of the Ming Dynasty, this sea ban must be opened!" ”

"The Emperor Shengming!" Meng Jian knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

"Then you should write a note as soon as possible and submit it, and when I return to Beijing, it will be convenient to discuss it with other ministers, after all, such a major matter still needs to come up with a specific charter." Zhu Qizhen added.

Meng Jian's body froze there, he just wanted to make a suggestion.

He is a protégé of Hu Hui, and his teacher has gone through four dynasties, and he is deeply valued by Renzong and Xuanzong, so he naturally inherited the political ideas of the two emperors.

The door of the Ming Dynasty to overseas was closed by Xuanzong Zhu Zhanji, how could he agree to open the sea ban? If I really mention it myself, I'm afraid I will be swept away

Not far off.

"What, but what's the concern?" Zhu Qizhen asked.

Meng Jian hurriedly shook his head, and he couldn't say why.

Zhu Qi Zhenxin said, as soon as we met, tell me about the ban on the sea, so that you can remember whose protégé you are, you should be a casino, bet on these two ends?

"Since you haven't figured it out yet, let's go back and think it through before telling me."

Zhu Qizhen was not much disappointed, he already had a plan in his heart, and when he went back, he would let these ministers taste what it means to be in a dilemma.

"Minister......

"Lord Meng, the emperor has just taken medicine, and it is already an extra grace to see you, please." Jin Qi stopped Meng Jian.

Meng Jian suddenly nodded again and again: "The dragon body is heavy, and the dragon body is heavy." Retire, retire! ”

After a while, Zhu Qizhen's feet slowly stretched into the steaming mist of hot water, and his teeth were hot as soon as he touched it, but he still landed his feet firmly in the basin.

"Why don't you add some cold water?" Seeing this, Jin Qi hurriedly asked.

"There are some things that are difficult to do, but they have to be done, just like soaking the feet in hot water, although it is hot, it can best relieve fatigue, and it can also remove moisture, which is simply beneficial to the body and harmless, you say, right?" Zhu Qizhen asked.

Jin Qi didn't dare to answer, silently wiped Zhu Qizhen's feet, and after Jin Qi left with the basin, Zhu Qizhen looked at his blood-red feet and could only cry without tears, pretending to be too much......

In the days to come, Zhu Qizhen stayed in the palace, and Xiang Wenyao and other Guangdong ministers would come every day to ask for peace and express concern for the emperor's health.

Zhu Qizhen was always unhurried, as if he had forgotten that he was going to Qiongzhou, and from time to time he asked people to go out to buy some special products to try. In a short period of time, I have eaten almost all the delicacies of Guangdong.

This is also thanks to the shopkeeper Liu, their Liu Xinju not only does a good job of entertainment, but also the food in the north and south of the sea on this day is a must, which makes Zhu Qizhen feast.

And the guy named Gou Jian had a more and more difficult time in the store.

Since that day, Shopkeeper Wang has tossed and tossed Gou Jian every day to show his majesty.

It's not that I went out to get a bottle of vinegar and said that Gou Jian bought it expensive, but I embezzled money and deducted a day's wages.

That is, when driving a carriage to transport goods, people sit on the carriage and are tired of the horses.

Either when I went out to deliver cloth to large families, the clothes on my body were not clean enough, which affected the image of the cloth store.

There are always many things, and Gou Jian's smile has become more and more brilliant.
