Chapter 83: The Three Princes were shocked

"Is it important for the three masters to come to see me?" Zhu Houzhao saw them come in, and he didn't mention what happened just now, obviously he wanted to fool him.

According to Zhu Houzhao's decree on Hugh Mu promulgated last year, today is his personal time, that is to say, there is no need for a waiter to speak and learn to prove the truth in the temple.

Naturally, there will be no cabinet scholars to argue here.

With such an obvious meaning, how could the three dukes not understand that Li Dongyang and Xie Qian are nothing, what kind of character Zhu Houzhao has, they have already figured it out, only Liu Jian doesn't know what's going on today.

"Your Majesty, the old ministers and others are here to reply to the decree, however, the old ministers have something to say and are not unhappy, Your Majesty today these two holy decrees, please also ask Your Majesty to inform the reason, the holy decree The old ministers and others have been drafted, but they have to ask in their hearts." Liu Jian looked straight at Zhu Houzhao behind the dragon case, and expressed the stuffiness in his chest.

He can stand on the emperor's side for the prestige of the emperor, as long as he can get by, not shake his roots, turn a blind eye, and stand on the emperor's side for the majesty of the dynasty.

But these are not the excuses for him, who is the first and auxiliary minister of the court, to make concessions without a bottom line, especially the matter of the minister, which makes him feel that the emperor has bad signs and it is time to correct it.

Now that the army is heading for Annam, the war is about to break out, coupled with a series of major decisions in the DPRK and China, the vassal king, the tax reform, and the envoys of various countries are watching.

Your Majesty, just stop and stop, don't toss.

Liu Jian is really the one who is the first auxiliary minister, he can make trouble with His Majesty, but no one can criticize him when it comes to protecting His Majesty.

When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he also blushed, he was only happy for a while, but he didn't want to provoke the third prince It was himself, this matter made him a little embarrassed.

"Master Liu, don't be angry, it's me who didn't think it through, I was happy for a while, and I forgot to invite the three masters to come and discuss, it's my fault, I apologize to the three masters here." Zhu Houzhao admitted his mistake quickly, no matter what, people are right, and it is indeed his own fault.

When Liu Jian heard this, his temper also eased slightly, Li Dongyang hurriedly played a round, diverted the topic, and said: "The emperor's ministers and others are not here to accuse His Majesty of mistakes and omissions, just now the emperor said that he was happy for a while, and the ministers also wanted to know, what is the happy thing, why doesn't the emperor share it with the ministers, so that the ministers and the emperor can be happy together." ”

Li Dongyang is worthy of being such a good hand, and he resolved the emperor's embarrassment in a few words, originally in history, Liu Jian and Xie Qian were severely suppressed by Liu Jin and were forced to resign and retire.

Only he forced his own thoughts of returning to seclusion together, vowing to bring down Liu Jin, and finally after he successfully brought down Liu Jin, he resigned and left.

Zhu Houzhao has a step, and he said in his heart, he is worthy of the name of Mrs. Li, who is full of government and opposition, this ability to change the topic is really amazing.

"Since Master Li asked, the three masters are also here, the Royal Manufacturing Bureau has recently made good things that benefit the country and the people, and I have not been able to get it for a long time, and I haven't had time to announce it, so let the three masters have a sneak peek." Zhu Houzhao walked down the steps and explained with a smile.

After the previous toss, it was almost sunset at this time, the imperial city was already red, and in some places there were even candles, and the previous palace had almost been done.

If it weren't for the sudden arrival of the third prince, the temple of the body had already started to use electricity at this moment, and what Zhu Houzhao was talking about was electric lights, these things would have been in his plan a long time ago.

He has always felt that the palace is dark in the evening, although there are palace lights, but it still feels a little gloomy, generally except for the palace concubine's bedroom, that is, the palace where he is located has some palace lights.

But in such a large palace, there can't be only this candle flame, sometimes he gets up in the middle of the night to urinate at night, and the empty dormitory makes him always shiver for no reason.

He knows that there are really ghosts in this world, and how he came to this world, Zhu Houzhao still remembers it clearly.

Therefore, Zhu Houzhao vowed to make the palace brighter, and it was too uncomfortable to keep the lights black.

"Oh, then the old ministers and others have thanked the emperor for his grace first, I don't know what kind of treasure it is?" Li Dongyang continued.

Liu Jian was also very curious, Xie Qian looked at the emperor, his eyes were full of anticipation, what the Royal Manufacturing Bureau made must be a good thing.

Yang Shen, who had been honest as a quail on the side, received Zhu Houzhao's eyes, and immediately understood, bringing a beautiful transparent glass cup.

When he entered and exited the palace, the three elders also turned a blind eye, they were all young people, and they didn't care too much, but Yang Shen was still as cautious as if he had done something bad.

When he walked up to the three bosses, he said with a flattering face: "Duke Liu, Duke Xie, Duke Li, this is the good thing that the emperor said, the name is called, the electric lamp, this thing is magical, it can be luminous through electricity, more than ten times brighter than the palace lamp, a room, with this electric lamp, there is no need for candles." ”

Li Dongyang looked at this kid and nodded meaningfully, Yang Shen has often been in and out of the third prince's house since he was a child, he is a little smart and is praised as a prodigy.

It can be said that the three of them just watched him grow up.

Liu Jian and Xie Qian also nodded slightly, which made Yang Shen secretly relieved, as long as he didn't bother him.

After his introduction, the third prince also set his eyes on this exquisite glass cup, and looked strangely, to the courtiers of their level, no matter how exquisite the glass is, it is not unusual.

But what Yang Shen said just now aroused their interest, but how to look at the objects in front of them, they are just ordinary glass, is it really so magical?

Also, electricity, what is this electricity?

Naturally, they didn't understand their knowledge, so they thought of the thunder and lightning in the sky, could it be that the thunder and lightning were used to make the glass cup light up, then this is too incredible.

Zhu Hou looked at their expressions, he didn't know what the three masters were thinking, and interrupted them with a smile: "Three masters, don't be in a hurry first, it's getting late now, let's eat in the palace, I will accompany the three masters to watch the lanterns and dine today." ”

He glanced at Liu Jin, and Liu Jin understood, and immediately went down to prepare a meal.

The atmosphere in the hall gradually became harmonious, and Liu Jian no longer found fault, waiting for the emperor to say that they could see the lantern, but they wanted to see how different this lamp could be.

Zhu Houzhao coaxed the three masters with a royal meal, Yang Shen was waiting carefully, looking at the eunuchs in the palace, according to Liu Jin's instructions, knocking here and nailing there.

The wires were soon covered with the Jinshen Palace, and the exquisite glass lamp, under the command of Liu Jin, was actually installed on the roof of the Jinshen Palace.

I don't understand this.

Liu Jian looked at Li Dongyang and Xie Qian, the three of them looked at each other in the same way, I don't know why, even if it is a palace lamp, shouldn't it be hung in the four corners? What is the name of this hanging roof?

Since Zhu Houzhao ascended the throne, the food in the palace has also changed, not as dull as before, and gradually there are various ways to cook ingredients.

Every day, I come to play tricks, eat pasta, steamed buns, fried dough and soy milk, and porridge in the morning, which is specially explained by the emperor.

At noon, there are all kinds of meat, not the same thing, three meats, two vegetables and one soup, which is the standard.

For dinner, it was even more sumptuous, with melons and fruits, meat, and even hot pot, which are said to be the skills that His Majesty the Emperor personally taught to the cooks of Shang Shanjian.

When the cooks tasted these dishes, they all cried, why, because they all beat their chests and said, they had never eaten such a delicious meal.

Therefore, whether it is the ministers of the court or the people in the palace, everyone is saying that the emperor is the reincarnation of an omnipotent immortal, anyway, no matter what the emperor does, they are only regarded as the emperor's omnipotent immortal skills.

These words once made Zhu Houzhao at a loss, why did they spread so outrageously?

Liu Jian and the others are eating the imperial hot pot from Zhu Houzhao today, because there is no chili, so Zhu Houzhao has always felt that the hot pot without chili is soulless.

But the three masters and Yang Shen ate with relish, and they were so happy and satisfied.

When the eunuchs in the palace were finally busy, the palace lights were rising, and night fell, and the hot pot banquet ended.

Zhu Hou took care of the time and called Liu Jin to give a few words, and Liu Jin took the order.

"Extinguish the palace lights." Liu Jin passed the decree.

The entire palace was immediately pitch black, Liu Jian and the others felt a little at a loss, especially people of their age, Liu Jian exclaimed: "Why did the emperor extinguish the palace lights? It's too dark, and the old minister can't see it. ”

Yang Shen comforted on the side: "Liu Gong'an sits, and it will be bright in a while." ”

Hearing this, Sangong, who was a little uneasy, gradually stabilized his mood.

Liu Jin opened his mouth again and commanded: "Hold the lamp." ”

At the sound of an order, in a compartment outside the palace, there was a piercing sound of gear rubbing, which made Sangong's heart turbulent for a while.

Well, this voice, Zhu Houzhao felt a little noisy, and it seemed that it needed to be improved, but let's use it first, it's just that the eunuchs who shook the gears worked hard.

I saw that the sound came from the roof, first there was a slight light in the room, flashing and flashing, and then, the entire temple of the body immediately brightened.

Sangong raised his head in shock, the light came from the roof, and the glass lamp hung on it was just too bright, which stimulated Sangong's tears, but he still squinted his eyes, wanting to see clearly.

The same exclamation came from his mouth.

"This, this, bright, bright, oops, the old minister's eyes..."

Zhu Houzhao was speechless, who told you to look up and stare at the light bulb.

Others, even Yang Shen and Liu Jin, who have already seen electric lights, and a group of palace people.

At this moment, they were all tears, even so, they were looking at the glass lantern on the top of the hall and were unwilling to look away.

Miracles, such things are such miraculous things.

The little eunuch who manipulated the crank in the compartment was so tired that he was out of breath.

Zhu Houzhao coughed lightly before interrupting their state.

"What do the three masters think?"

Li Dongyang, who was the first to react, looked at the smug emperor in front of him, and his heart was already overturned, no wonder there were rumors that the emperor was the reincarnation of Ziwei Xing, and now, even the old man I have to believe it.

Don't talk about him, when the lights came on, everyone's minds remembered this somewhat absurd rumor, but now, they couldn't help but believe it, and their hearts were even more in awe.

Zhu Houzhao was also emotional.

I still remember my previous life, in the early nineties, in his small town, when the street lights were turned on on the street, that night, the people who walked on the street were not so surprised.

The third prince reacted, thinking about today's two holy decrees, the matter of the Royal Manufacturing Bureau's reward for the minister, and bowed to the emperor, Liu Jian bowed his hand, and said with a sincere heart: "The emperor has rewarded the official properly, and the old minister has been slandered before, at this time..." At this point, he looked up again at the bright glass lamp, what a good thing.

Only then did he continue: "At this time, there is no doubt about it, my emperor Shengming. ”

"My Emperor Shengming."

The crowd bowed down in unison.
