277. Brother and sister
Zhu Gaosui did not rest in the palace, but went home to get the four treasures of the study.
When Princess Zhao saw Zhu Gaosui returning home, she stepped forward and said softly: "Lord, the concubine has prepared a meal, but you need to use some, I saw the prince last night......"
"Princess." Zhu Gaosui smiled and said, "Go and bring the four treasures of the best study in the palace." ”
Princess Zhao was puzzled, but she didn't dare to ask more, and asked the palace governor to take it.
In the Southern Tang Dynasty, "pen, ink, paper, inkstone" specifically refers to Xuancheng Zhuge pen, Huizhou Li Tinggui ink, Chengxintang paper, Huizhou Wuyuan Longwei inkstone.
Since the Song Dynasty, "pen, ink, paper, inkstone" specifically refers to Xuanbi, Anhui Xuancheng, Huimo, Sheyan, Tao Yan, and Duan Yan.
After the Yuan Dynasty, the lake pen gradually prospered, and the Xuanbi gradually declined.
But the precious ink treasure is still very worthy of giving away and collecting, and the Ming literati like this.
Zhu Gaosui took the four treasures of the study, and then took a few guards and went straight to the Guogong Mansion on Zhenguo Street.
Zhenguo Mansion, Library.
There are a lot of books in the house, which are collected by Cheng Yuan and Kuang Yu in the past two years, and recently they have found some scholars to help transcribe the things that Cheng has learned.
Today, everyone went to Zhenguo Academy to be busy, and the house was very quiet.
Hearing a voice in the corridor, An Cheng smiled and said, "I came back so early today, and I have already packed your clothes and carriage for you." ”
When An Cheng said this, he suddenly noticed that something was wrong with his breath, and subconsciously turned around, and when he saw the familiar face, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Zhu Gaosui was staring at her, and after making eye contact with her, he smiled and said, "Sister, the third brother has come to see you." ”
An Cheng hesitated: "Brother, you ......"
Zhu Gaosui found that An Cheng was a little resistant to him, so he opened the box and said:
"Sister, what about the third brother, remember that you used to like to paint, this is the famous ink that my brother prepared for you, after grinding, it has a faint fragrance of grass and trees, it is very unique, my sister uses it to paint, it must be the icing on the cake."
An Cheng turned around and didn't look at the box opened by Zhu Gaosui, she felt more and more that there must be something bad about Zhu Gaosui coming today.
"The third brother has a heart." She put down the brush in her hand and said, "There are a lot of things in the house, and I don't paint anymore." ”
Zhu Gaosui smiled and went over to open a piece of ink, walked to the inkstone and grinded it, and said, "Why don't you help your sister polish ink today?"
I remember that in the past, my brother and sister used to read and write together when we were in the palace. ”
was said by Zhu Gaosui, An Cheng couldn't help but be pulled by memories, their brother and sister used to be very good, but since the martyrdom, everyone has changed.
"Third brother, what are you doing today?"
"Sister, brother-in-law recently wants my father to allocate money to the shipyard to build ships, and even proposes to ship by sea.
If it goes on like this, I'm afraid that if I don't wait for my brother to remind me, my father will be angry, let him stay away from his eldest brother, don't always get involved, isn't it good to be a good father. ”
An Cheng kept silent about Zhu Gaosui's mention, and diverted the topic: "If the third brother is here today to talk about the love of brothers and sisters, then I am willing to entertain you warmly."
If you ask these questions, where does my woman manage the town of Guogong, the second brother is now marching north, the third brother should share the worries of his father and the emperor with the eldest brother, instead of only staring at the town of Guogong all day long. ”
When Zhu Gaosui heard this, he was dissatisfied: "The third brother is kind and persuasive, sister, you bury your brother's kindness." ”
"Third brother." An Cheng walked to the table, picked up a piece of ink and walked it to Zhu Gaosui: "Third brother, this ink sister doesn't dare to use it."
I'm afraid that if I use this ink, my paintings and articles will also be stained with conspiracy. ”
"Zhizhen, you talk to your brother like this, the eldest brother and the second brother treat you well, have you forgotten the affection of the third brother for you today?
I didn't expect that the third sister can now tolerate sand in her eyes, and she can share a colt with Zhiming, is her sister too weak, or he is too flattering. ”
Zhu Gaosui didn't see her respond for a long time after speaking, and said angrily: "Okay, very good!" ”
Zhu Gaosui "snapped" the box and left.
Shi Jian walked over and sorted out the books, then looked out of the door worriedly, and said, "Your Highness, His Royal Highness King Zhao ...... him"
"Don't pay attention to him, he is no longer the third brother who was so ambitious." An Cheng glanced at the sword and said, "Sword squire, you don't have to let the horse know what the third brother said." ”
"But, princess...... All right. The sword took the fruit bowl and left.
……………………
Several people sat down in the hall, and Cheng Yuan said: "Song Jing, Lao Cao, the two of you will also go to Chaohu Lake with me this time."
The anti-Japanese guard training must borrow the lake, Chaohu Lake is just one of them, this time not only to use Chaohu Lake, but also to help His Majesty take back some of the Yu family's sailors.
After that, the Chaohu sailors were sent to Taihu Lake and Liangshanbo to exterminate the water bandits, and when the shipyard ships returned to their positions, the imperial court would be put into training.
But we're only in charge of the front, and as for the later complaint training, if any of you want to go, I can recommend you to go. ”
"The Chaohu Sailor belongs to the imperial court, when did it become the Yu family." Cao Menghu grinned.
This is true, but although the Chaohu Water Divisions are all brave and good at fighting, they are also unruly and unruly, and they have long been wild horses.
Disobeying the orders of the generals, not obeying the commands, and the Japanese are all murderous people, since the Hongwu Dynasty, they have colluded with the remnants of Zhang Shicheng and Fang Guozhen, and wandered in the waters near the Ming Dynasty. ”
While everyone was talking, a person hurriedly came in from outside the hall.
It was Yang Xianzhi.
"I'm not at home with my wife, why did I come over."
"Master, I heard Li Zhigang say, today's Yushi Huang Zhen, Chen Ying, and ...... There is a lot of criticism about the matter of shipping and sea vessels. also said that if you have a wife and remarry, you will be punished according to the "Da Ming Law". ”
Cao Menghu waved his hand and said, "I ate so much meat and steamed buns from Grandpa Guo in the capital, and drank so much wine.
Strip your clothes and hang them at the city gate with this group of stinky rotten Confucians who can only play with pens and tongues, they know what is wrong with the sea transportation.
If you don't build a ship, don't resist the Japanese, and wait for the tragedy of the Japanese to kill the people again? Your Majesty, you have to talk about it, if you want to beat or beat anyone, you just have to say it.
I'm Cao Menghu to help you solve it! ”
Although Cheng Yuan did not support Cao Menghu's beating of Yushi, after hearing these words, he couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart, and hurriedly hugged his fists and said:
"Thank you, but you still eat meat and drink well, you are not an opponent of those imperial histories, don't forget that the prince helped you get rid of the previous stigma.
Don't do any more crimes, have a good innocent body to do innocent things, I will make them suffer losses and dare not say it. ”
Yang Xianzhi said: "Actually, according to the law, there is indeed no precedent for your master, but Your Majesty has already asked our Ministry of Rites to prepare, and the specifications are the same as when you married your master." ”
Cheng Yuan glanced at Song Jing, Kuang Yu, and Cao Menghu, and said, "Today's words, don't mention them again when you leave this door."
If you can't do it, you can't talk about it, but it's not good, these things are my business, you don't have to get involved, the academy is the right thing. ”
………………
Under the sky, there is a withered yellow expanse, undulating hills, winding rivers like long scars growing from grasslands, and sheep scattered scattered.
The dry grass and the sun reflect each other, the water here is very abundant, the terrain is also good, and the Ming army camp is stationed here.
Da Yuer rode a galloping horse, waving a horse pole in her hand, and Zhu Neng and Zhu Gaosui also followed.
Zhu Gaoxu is very good at archery and riding, and his war horse is a strong jujube red horse, with powerful long legs stepping on the wild grass, and his belly can almost stick to the tip of the grass.
He rode to a place where there was green grass, turned over and jumped down, and the horse immediately rubbed his face affectionately.
Sticking out his tongue and licking the back of his hand, Zhu Gaoxu threw the horse's reins back and landed firmly in his hands.
"Hey, there's a good horse today? Pick some good ones for the horses, and feed them to the king, grass, water, and salt......
Zhu Gaoxu saw the distraction of the horse next to him, raised his whip, and shouted: "Looking for a smoke, why are you stunned." ”
