Chapter 323: Emperor, Immortal Zhang is here!
Kaifeng, Zhou Wangfu.
After Zhu Hu, the king of Zhou, turned away his eldest nephew, he should eat and drink all day long, and he didn't take this matter to heart at all.
Princess Feng of Zhou was worried all day long, always feeling that something was going to happen.
On this day, when Zhu Hu was practicing calligraphy in the study, Princess Feng walked in with a plate of pastries.
Seeing that it was the princess, Zhu Hu immediately offered her the newly written calligraphy work as if he were a treasure, so that the other party could praise him a few words.
Feng Shi looked at it and said perfunctorily.
"It's so well written, it's almost time to catch up with Wang Xizhi."
As soon as Zhu Hu heard this, his old face immediately sank. He wrote cursive, what does it have to do with Wang Xizhi!
"Just put the pastry down and ask Myoding to come in and serve it."
Zhu Hu likes to dance and ink, and he doesn't like Concubine Feng, because she is from a vulgar background, doesn't understand literature and ink, and doesn't understand the amorous style.
It's just that the other party is married by his father and is the daughter of Feng Sheng, the Duke of Song, that he respects him a little.
Even so, not long after he became a vassal, he married three side concubines one after another, and personally changed their names, namely Ni Miaoding, Yang Miaoxiu, and Mu Miaofu.
Among them, Ni Miaoding, who is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, is his favorite concubine.
Princess Feng put down the pastry, but people didn't have the slightest intention of leaving.
"Your Royal Highness, you didn't let the Third Emperor Sun come to the door last time, and the concubine always feels inappropriate when she thinks about it."
"My father once asked someone to send a letter to the concubine in Beijing, saying that my father loved the three emperors and grandsons the most, and if I let my father know that we neglected the three emperors and grandchildren, he would definitely issue an order to reprimand us!"
Zhu Hu was also a little angry when he heard this.
"Reprimand, reprimand, how can you drop a piece of meat?"
"Your husband is a person with no ability, and he is destined to be a prince in this life."
"Lone didn't think about rebellion, even if that grandson became the emperor in the future, what could he do with Lone?"
"He won't risk the condemnation of the world and send troops to destroy Lonely, right?"
Seeing that he really couldn't persuade His Highness, Feng Shi could only flick his sleeves angrily and turn away.
Zhu Hu saw that Feng dared to throw his face, and scolded him after he walked away.
"Vixen!"
"My father is also blind, why did he tell Gu that you are such a stupid woman!"
When King Zhou was scolding, a gust of incense blew in, and the beauty Xu Miaoding floated in from outside the door.
"Your Highness, who are you angry with?"
King Zhou scolded angrily.
"Who else could it be, of course it's that Feng Shi!"
Ni Miaoding saw that the prince was angry with the princess again, and she was secretly happy in her heart, and was ready to say a few words.
Although she didn't dare to hope that she could abolish the princess and then let the prince straighten herself. But as long as the princess is not happy and the prince is disgusted with her, these of them who are side concubines will have a bright future.
However, before he could speak, the chief eunuch of the palace hurried in.
"Lord, something big has happened, His Majesty the Emperor has ordered someone to deliver the decree!"
"Divine Decree?"
When King Zhou heard this, he hurriedly pushed away Ni Miaoding, who was tired of himself, and then hurriedly returned to the room to change clothes.
After a short time, King Zhou dressed neatly and placed incense cases in the courtyard, and then led the whole family to kneel to receive the holy decree. ….
"Son, please Saint Ann!"
"St. Gonill!"
Chang Sen, the new deputy commander of Jinyiwei, saw that King Zhou's family was almost kneeling, so he opened the holy decree in front of everyone.
"The Emperor's edict!"
Chang Sen was stuck after reading this sentence, because except for the first sentence, the rest of the whole holy decree really didn't look like what the holy decree should be.
Zhou Yuan, who accompanied Chang Sen to deliver the message, thought that Chang Sheng had encountered a word he didn't know.
After all, the officials who wrote the decree liked to drag the text the most, and never considered whether they could know the brocade guards who passed the decree.
"What's wrong?"
"Brother Zhou, you look at the holy decree ......"
Zhou Yuan stretched out his head to take a look, only to see that the holy decree was all in the vernacular, and asked puzzledly.
"What's wrong with this holy decree, it's really our emperor's handwriting?"
Chang Sen was shocked when he heard this, is our emperor's holy decree so casual?
"Brother Zhou, what are you thinking about, do you want to pronounce the tone of the emperor?"
"Well, you can play freely, no matter what you think, you don't wait for anyone to dare to dislike it."
King Zhou knelt on the ground for a while, and when he saw Chang Sen and another Jinyi Wei Qianhu muttering for a while without reading the holy decree, he immediately became a little impatient.
"Hey!"
"What are you two doing, can you still read the decree properly?"
Chang Sen heard King Zhou's urging, and immediately coughed.
"Zhu Hu, you dog!"
When King Zhou heard this, he was so angry that he stood up from the ground on the spot, pointed at Chang Sen and scolded.
"Who are you scolding dogs?"
"Don't think that your Chang family has the Three Emperors' grandsons, just think that your Chang family can go to heaven!"
"Lone tells you, no matter how bad Lone is, he is also the Prince of Daming, but not any cat or dog can be bad!"
Chang Sen saw that King Zhou was furious, and hurriedly explained.
"King Zhou, the humble position is not to scold you, it is written in the emperor's holy decree!"
"It's the emperor who is scolding you!"
"The Emperor...... Father's ......"
As soon as King Zhou thought of his old man's casual holy decree, he also knelt down again.
"Read!"
"No!"
"Zhu Hu, you dog, why did we give birth to such a wolf-hearted thing as you!"
"Your eldest nephew kindly visited you, but you closed the city gate so tightly that you didn't even let people in, do you still have a conscience!"
"Now cut down a guard and horse in the Zhou Palace, and then order the Jinyi Guard to be responsible for forty boards!"
"Chin this!"
After Chang Sen read the holy decree, the entire courtyard was stupid, including him, the person who read the holy decree.
He also knew after reading the holy decree that the emperor ordered him to come to Kaifeng Mansion to pass the decree, dare to love King Zhou and the three emperors and grandchildren, and turned the three emperors and grandsons away, so that our mother's family can vent their anger for the three emperors and grandchildren!
Chang Sen thought of this, and then looked at King Zhou's expression was not so friendly, his eyes had already begun to glance at King Zhou's pouting buttocks, thinking about how to beat him for a while, so that this guy would know that it hurts!
King Zhou was stunned after listening to the holy decree, and he couldn't even believe his ears.
I just didn't let Zhu Yunxi's bastard come to the door, so he could cause his father to send such a thunderous wrath?
When King Zhou thought of this, he only felt that he was about to explode with grievances. ….
He is also the son of his father, and he can't compare to the eldest brother of the prince, and now he can't even compare to a grandson, so it's better to die!
Chang Sen saw that King Zhou had not said anything for a long time, and immediately asked in a gloomy manner.
"His Royal Highness King Zhou, do you want to resist the decree?"
"Chang Sen, don't be a fox!"
Chang Sen snorted coldly.
"Even if the humble position is a fox and a fake tiger, it is also relying on the power of the emperor, relying on the power of the emperor!"
"You just give a humble word, and you won't accept it. If you don't accept it, you will take it back and return it to the emperor!"
Chang Sen's two words, Zhou Yuan's blood boiled for a while.
Originally, Zhou Yuan and the other old men of Jinyiwei still had some opinions about Chang Sen, thinking that this child was too young to take on the important task of commanding Jinyiwei.
Now seeing that Chang Sen is so domineering, he doesn't look like his second brother at all, so he recognizes it in his heart.
I think this is the courage that the commander of the Jinyi Guard should have, what is the current Jiang Xuan, he is not even qualified to be an echo worm!
King Zhou was so squeezed by Chang Sen that he was so angry that he almost cried on the spot.
Although King Zhou hated it to death in his heart, but
Don't dare to disobey the order. If he resists the decree today, tomorrow the old man will be able to send someone to lock him into Beijing and put him in Jinyi Guard's prison!
"Erchen...... The sons and daughters are grateful, woo woo woo ...... "
Chang Sen stuffed the holy decree into the hands of King Zhou, and then said to the brocade clothes behind him.
"Bring the board up, and we will personally execute His Royal Highness King Zhou!"
"No!"
Chang Sen took the board handed over by his subordinates, walked up to King Zhou and asked in a cold voice.
"His Royal Highness King Zhou, are we going to execute here, or are we going to drive the others out and execute them again?"
King Zhou didn't want to be beaten in front of his wife and concubine, so he immediately said to Chang Sen.
"Get everyone else out of the way!"
"Honor!"
"Everyone else has withdrawn, and this official is going to execute His Majesty!"
Several of King Zhou's concubines hurriedly retreated when they heard this, as if they were afraid of being splashed with blood. Only King Zhou's concubine Feng Shi hurriedly took off a golden hairpin from her head, crawled in front of Chang Sen, and forcibly stuffed the golden hairpin into Chang Sen's hand.
"Deputy Commander Chang, please be merciful to your subordinates, my prince is weak and can't bear the forty boards......
Chang Sen threw the golden hairpin to the ground with a look of disgust, and his body took a few steps back, breaking free of Feng's hands.
"Please respect the princess!"
"The humble position is deeply favored by the emperor, how can he do such a thing of favoritism!"
"Someone, take the princess out, don't let her miss the emperor's errand!"
King Zhou also felt that Feng was a little embarrassed, and turned around and scolded him.
"Stupid woman!"
"Don't get out of here yet, don't stay here and be embarrassed!"
"Even if this king is dead, he won't ask for such a pickled villain!"
"Lord Wang!"
When Feng Shi heard this, he was so angry that he almost cried to death.
"Lord Wang, it's time for you, don't be stubborn!"
After Feng finished speaking, King Zhou, he immediately looked at Chang Sen with a pleading face.
"The third master of the Chang family, please be merciful to my sister-in-law, that is, my own sister!"
"The concubine is here to kowtow to you, woo woo woo ...... "....
When Chang Sen saw Feng say this, he immediately remembered that Feng, the widow of his eldest brother, was a sister to the princess of King Zhou.
Chang Sen thought of this relationship, and his mouth felt as uncomfortable as eating fly feces.
Originally, he still wanted to give a bad breath to his nephew, but now that the two families are related and have an old cause, how can he fight?
As everyone knows, this is Lao Zhu's purpose, through the big net of blood, to tie the royal family and the nobles of the court together.
If the royal family is prosperous, the nobles will prosper, and if the royal family dies, the nobles will die.
"Princess, please!"
"Since the princess said so, Chang Sen will definitely take care of one or two."
"But the emperor said that there are forty boards, and it must be one board. Instead of embarrassing her duties here, the princess should call the medical officer in the palace as soon as possible and prepare for the prince in advance......
Feng is not an ignorant person, listening to Chang Sen say this, he knows that Chang Sen will not be too difficult for his own prince, and he can show mercy when he is executed.
Therefore, Feng got up from the ground and hurriedly ordered someone to call a medical officer.
As for herself, she has been standing by and waiting, waiting for the prince to finish the board and serve at any time.
Although Chang Sen has decided to look at the face of the princess and sister-in-law and open up to King Zhou, he is a person who practices martial arts, and the strength in his hands is very great, even if he doesn't deliberately make it bad, King Zhou is also beaten to cry wolf.
After Chang Sen finished playing forty boards, King Zhou was so painful that he fainted directly.
Seeing this, Feng Shi hurriedly rushed up to check the injury, and saw that his prince was beaten to the ground, and hurriedly thanked Chang Sen for his kindness.
A few side concubines who were hiding outside the door, seeing that there was no movement inside, hurriedly ran in to offer their courtesy. Seeing that the prince was beaten to death, and there was blood flowing out of his buttocks, he immediately abused Chang Sen and others.
"You dogs who have been stabbed a thousand times, are you going to beat my prince to death?"
"Even if Your Majesty wants to punish the prince, he didn't say that you should be beaten so hard, right?"
"You are treating the vassal king harshly, and we will write an excerpt to sue you!"
When Princess Feng heard the words of several concubines, she immediately raised her slap and slapped them a few times.
"Shut up!"
"If it weren't for the mercy of the Chang brothers, I'm afraid the prince wouldn't have been able to get out of bed for half a year!"
After Feng reprimanded the ignorant concubines in the palace, he immediately turned around and bowed to Chang Sen Yingying.
"Thank you Brother Chang Sen for your mercy, the concubine has thanked you on behalf of the prince."
Chang Sen sighed secretly in his heart when he heard this, in the end, it was the woman of the Xungui family who understood the rules and was knowledgeable.
Ordinary women think how serious the bleeding is, but they don't know that bleeding is a trivial matter.
People who are used to playing boards in the brocade guard, dozens of boards can make people's skin not break, but the bones inside can be broken for you.
"The princess hurriedly ordered someone to carry the prince back to heal her injuries, and she had to return to Beijing to recover her life as soon as possible!"
"Brother Chang, the concubine is slack!"
"Come, seal a bag of silver for each of the angels, and let them buy tea and eat on the way!"
This time, Chang Sen didn't refuse, and arched his hand towards Feng.
"On behalf of the brethren, thank you for the princess's reward!"
When Chang Sen led the people back, he happened to meet with the team of the Three Emperors and Suns, and Zhou Yuan saw Chang Sen's thoughts and immediately proposed. ….
"Deputy commander, the brothers are tired of running, let's go to the post station ahead and rest for a while."
Chang Sen was also very moved when he heard this, and wanted to go to see his nephew, and then ask the third emperor grandson about the situation of the second brother.
It's just that when he thinks of the errand of the emperor on his shoulders, he doesn't dare to slack off in the slightest.
"Don't say goodbye, let's rest together until the next night."
"Okay!"
On the official road, in the special carriage in which Zhu Yunxi was riding, Zhu Yunxi was lying on the table with several students writing and drawing.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the general route of the Jintong Railway has been decided, and you will walk along the route several times in the next few months, finalizing every detail."
"For example, what to do if you encounter a mountain, whether to build a tunnel or bypass it. When you encounter the river, do you build a bridge or something......
"Yes!"
"Obey the orders of the Three Emperors and Suns!"
On the way back to Beijing, Zhu Yunxi has been leading people to draw construction drawings.
Although the current Ming Dynasty does not have the ability to build a railway, he does not plan to build it now, but just wants to order someone to lay the roadbed first, so as to facilitate the laying of sleepers and rails in the future.
He believes that in another three or two years, Daming's steel production should be able to supply, and it is not too late to officially start construction at that time.
While Zhu Yunxi was discussing the specific details with the students, Xu Liuzi, who was accompanied by Jinyi Wei Qianhu, knocked on the window of the carriage.
"The Third Emperor Sun, it seems that the third master of the Chang family has passed in front of us, do you want to greet him and bring him over to meet you?"
"Bring it here, just ask him what he did to the north!"
When Xu Liuzi heard this, he smiled weakly, and then ordered someone to chase the third master of the Chang family.
Chang Sen had given up seeing the Three Emperor Suns, but when he saw that the Three Emperor Suns took the initiative to send someone to call him, he hurriedly ran over to greet him.
"Humble Chang Sen, I've seen the Three Emperors' Grandsons!"
"Third uncle, we don't have to be so polite to each other, right?"
"Rules, rules can't be broken, hehehehe......
Chang Sen rode a horse and followed Zhu Yunxi's carriage closely, and the two chatted with each other.
"Third uncle, what business are you going to the north?"
"It's nothing, the emperor misses King Zhou, so he gave King Zhou some reward."
"Oooh......"
Zhu Yunxi was suspicious when he heard this, thinking that the fifth uncle was not in Kaifeng, what would the imperial grandfather give him
Reward?
"Third uncle, I have a letter to the imperial grandfather here, you can help me bring it back, and then tell the imperial grandfather that I will go back to Zhongdu to worship the ancestral tomb when I return home."
Chang Sen heard that Zhu Yunxi wanted to worship the ancestral tomb, and hurriedly agreed. Later, he inquired with Zhu Yunxi about the situation of the second brother, and saw that the second brother was mixing well in Datong, so he took his horse and said goodbye.
Chang Sen returned to the capital and handed over the letter of the three emperors and grandsons to Lao Zhu, who heard that the eldest grandson was going to worship the ancestral tomb, and his face was also so happy that he couldn't see his eyebrows.
"I can't see that this rebel grandson still has this filial piety!"
Lao Zhu opened the letter in front of Chang Sen, and when he saw that he was just saying hello, he threw the letter aside after reading it and asked about the situation on King Zhou's side.
"What's wrong with King Zhou, have you ever had any words of resentment?"
"Back to the emperor, King Zhou is quite respectful to the emperor, he received the decree, thanked him, and received the punishment." ….
"Princess Zhou also rewarded the lowly and other brothers with twenty taels of silver each, so that the lowly and others could buy tea and eat on the road."
Lao Zhu saw that Chang Sen even said this little thing, and his impression of Chang Sen was a little better.
"If you can get a reward, it seems that you are merciful?"
Chang Sen said whimsically when he heard this.
"Don't count......
"It's just that the status of His Royal Highness King Zhou is hindered, so I didn't dare to make a heavy hand......
Lao Zhu was just a joke, and seeing that Chang Sen still answered so seriously, he immediately waved his hand and sent it out.
"Let's go back, I'm a good student on an errand in Jinyiwei!"
"No!"
Lao Zhu sent Chang Sen out, and he no longer had the affairs of King Zhou's side and continued to deal with the government.
However, as soon as he picked up the fold here, he saw Erhu running over in a hurry.
"Emperor, a great event!"
Lao Zhu glared angrily when he heard this.
"What a system!"
"No matter how big the happy event is, it can't be so panicked, it looks like we haven't seen the world!"
"Emperor, there are people outside the palace gate asking to see you!"
"Who?"
"It's a man dressed as a Taoist priest!"
"Self-proclaimed Zhang is sloppy!"
When Lao Zhu heard this, he was stunned, and it took a while before he confirmed again.
"Who did you just say?"
"Zhang is sloppy!"
"Immortal Zhang is here!"
Lao Zhu heard Erhu say the name of his dreams again, and he was so excited that he hurriedly jumped up from the chair, but after walking a few steps, he felt that the soles of his feet slipped and almost fell to the ground with a heel fight.
Fortunately, the second tiger was by his side and grabbed him, otherwise he would have been embarrassed today.
"Hurry, hurry!"
"Help us to go to the gate of the palace, and we will greet Immortal Zhang in person!"
"No, no, no, it's a slack!"
"Immediately send an order to the officials of the six ministries, let them all go to the gate of the palace to greet them!"
"By the way, which palace gate?"
"Back to the emperor, Zhang Shenxian is outside the Hongwu Gate!"
"Then order the hundred officials to go to meet outside the Hongwu Gate!"
