Of course, it's not mainly to make money, Chen Kan just misses the sweet and juicy watermelon.

Collected some watermelon seeds that were already ripe.

Chen Kan took two golden apricots, one at a time.

After eating, he caught a glimpse of the sun in the west, and Chen Kan jumped down to the river again.

There are not many days left to stay in Jiangnan and play in the water, and you need to cherish it.

Hua Shi's physical strength was almost recovered, and he also jumped into the water, swam to the other side of the river and came back again, played back and forth, and then floated his upper body on the water and began to play in the water.

Chen Kan suddenly had a big sense of playfulness, and plunged into the water suddenly, and dragged his ankle into the water while he was still playing in the water.

Hua Shi was frightened and let out a miserable scream, and after sinking into the water and finding that it was Chen Kan, he relaxed again, and the whole person held his breath, and after a while, he floated to the water.

Chen Kan scurried over him, wiped the water droplets from his face, threw the ponytail behind him, and then met the big resentful eyes of Hua Shi.

Chen Kan smiled: "Little guy, do you know why people float on the water? ”

Hua Shi asked confusedly, "Why?" ”

Chen Kan lay flat on the water, and the whole person rose and fell with the waves, and began to lecture for Hua Shi.

"That's because there is something called buoyancy in the water, of course, there is also in the air, the boat can float on the water, the hot air balloon can be lifted into the air, it is inseparable from the buoyancy, of course, and the density of our human body is smaller than that of water, which is also a very important part......

Hua Shi was still a little confused at first, but as Chen Kan's clear voice slowly sounded, he quickly entered the state.

It is a pity that today's learning seems to be incomprehensible no matter how much he listens to it.

Chen Kan's afterglow caught a glimpse of the puzzled look on Hua Shi's face, and said lightly: "This is also a science in our family, called Gewu, but the teacher prefers to call this knowledge physics, you are still shallow now, just listen to it, and wait for you to learn the profoundness of a subject, and then teach you this knowledge for the teacher." ”

When he spent his time, he followed Chen Kan's example, pillowing his hands behind his head and letting his body sway and rise with the waves.

After listening to Chen Kan's explanation, Hua Shi asked, "Teacher, what is physics?" ”

Chen Kan said: "That is, the knowledge that can restore the operating principle of everything in the world." ”

"Is it so powerful?"

"It's so powerful, learn this knowledge, fly to the sky, go up and down the sea and do anything."

Chen Kan was blown out, and Hua Shi's little face suddenly showed a look of longing.

After a moment, he asked, "Teacher, shouldn't we go home for dinner?" ”

"Yes!"

received Chen Kan's affirmative answer, and the two swam ashore together.

After receiving the towels handed over by the guards and getting dressed, a group of people rushed home with long wet hair.

Chen Kan and Hua Shi returned to the backyard, Chang Ning saw the wet hair of the two, and couldn't help frowning: "It's not a place where there is no swimming at home, why do you have to run outside the city, what if something happens?" ”

Chang Ning's tone was slightly reproachful, but there was a hint of concern.

He was nagging, but he still took a towel from his subordinate hand and wiped the water stains on Chen Kan's hair.

The job was robbed, and the maid who originally planned to wipe Chen Kan's hair had to turn around and aim at Hua Shi.

The two maids grabbed each other's towels and giggled to wipe their heads for Hua Shi, and after a while, Hua Shi's long silky hair turned into a chicken nest under the fiddling of the two little maids.

"It's time to get tired of playing for a day, right?"

Chang Ning seemed to be taking revenge on Chen Kan for not taking her out to play, and used twelve points of strength in his hand to make Chen Kan's scalp tingle for a while.

Chen Kan's expression remained unchanged, and he responded lightly: "I'm tired, I'm definitely tired, and I'm hungry." ”

Chang Ning combed Chen Kan's hair into a ponytail, and said angrily: "If you are such an adult, you still learn children to play in the water, and you will not starve to death." ”

"Hey, hey, hey......"

Chen Kan smiled like a puppy, with a flattering smile: "Isn't it hot, we're going to Beijing soon, and if you want to swim in the future, you won't have this opportunity." ”

mentioned that he was going to Beijing, Chang Ning's face finally looked a little better.

"Alright, let's eat."

When they came to the dining hall, Chen Kan and Hua Shi suddenly began to gobble up.

Chang Ning furrowed her brows, she remembered that Hua Shi used to eat very elegantly, why did she become like this now?

......

The next day, Chen Kan originally wanted to sleep lazily, but Zhu Di didn't know what was crazy, so he asked him to go to the court in the middle of the night.

On the fourth watch, Chen Kan got up from the bed half-dead, and even looked at Chang Ning with a little resentment.

Chang Ning was preparing the robe for Chen Kan to go to the court, and chattered: "Husband, get up quickly." The chamberlain sent by my father is still waiting for you outside. ”

Chen Kan yawned, and squeezed out two drops of liquid from the corners of his eyes: "Ah~, I'm going to the court today, why didn't you send someone to inform me yesterday?" ”

This is the first time Chen Kan has encountered such a temporary request to go to the court, and in the past, when Zhu Di needed the nobles to go to the court, he would often give a day in advance.

After all, the vast majority of nobles do not have the habit of going to court.

Who let the nobles have little power in their hands now?

Even those major governors have begun to accept the reality and act as salted fish, how positive can Chen Kan be?

After grinding for a long time, Chen Kan finally reluctantly got into the carriage.

Just out of the house.

Chen Kan was about to squint his eyes and take a nap, but the swaying carriage suddenly stopped.

His body subconsciously leaned forward, and his sleepiness disappeared in an instant.

"What's going on?"

Chen Kan lifted the curtain and glared at Fang Xu who was driving dissatisfied.

Fang Xu pointed ahead: "Hou Mansion, Cheng Guogong's car is driving in front." ”

"Cheng Guogong?"

Chen Kan looked in the direction of Fang Xu's finger, and couldn't help muttering to himself: "Even Zhu Neng has come to the court, is Zhu Di planning to send troops today?" ”

Except for the day when Zhu Di ascended the throne, this was the first time Chen Kan saw Zhu Neng go to court.

The Yongle Dynasty had a total of three national dukes, in addition to Chen Heng, the posthumous Jing Guogong, the remaining two were Chengguo Gong Zhu Neng and Qi Guo Gong Qiu Fu.

But the two learned the lesson of the Hongwu Dynasty's noble generals, and they have been closed since Zhu Di ascended the throne, and even the military power was handed over after Zhu Di ascended the throne, unwilling to leave any handle, for fear that one day Zhu Di would kill them if he was unhappy.

But now that Zhu Neng has appeared, there is only one explanation that Chen Kan can think of, that is, Zhu Di decided to go south, and it is likely that the candidate for the coach of the southern expedition will be announced at today's court meeting.

Chen Kan closed the curtain and couldn't help frowning: "This is too fast, right?" ”

"What's too fast?"

Fang Xu's voice reached Chen Kan's ears, but Chen Kan didn't say much.

The military report from the southwest was only delivered to the center yesterday, and today Zhu Di finalized the candidate for the main general, which is indeed too fast.

Historically, Zhu Di's decision to conquer Annam in the south was a matter of the fourth year of Yongle, and now it is only the second year of Yongle.

It seems that history has indeed undergone some unpredictable changes because of its arrival.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Kan ordered: "Follow behind Cheng Guogong's carriage." ”

Zhu Neng, who was recuperating in the carriage with his eyes closed, subconsciously felt that there was an extra tail behind him.

He lifted the curtain behind the carriage, and when he saw that it was Jinghaihou's carriage, he ignored it.

The carriage walked very slowly, after all, the characters who could go to the court, which family did not have a group of dogs.

The road in Jingshi is so wide, and hundreds of family members and sedan chairmen are crowded together, and the speed is naturally impossible to be fast.

Chen Kan got up late today, so he had to silently follow behind other people's butts to eat ashes.

However, there is a benefit to coming late, there is no need to wait in front of the palace gate, the Hongwu Gate has been opened.

Chen Kan jumped out of the carriage and silently walked into the noble team.

After entering the Fengtian Hall, Chen Kan leaned on the pillar and prepared to catch up on sleep.

But the strange thing is that no little eunuch jumped out today to say that there is something to start and nothing to retreat from the court.

Zhu Di sat on the dragon chair expressionlessly, and asked directly: "Zhuqing, the puppet king of Annan, Li Jili Chen has 200,000 soldiers on the border of Yunnan, and he has deceived me too much, and I am determined to send troops to Ping'annan, but which Aiqing took the initiative to invite Ying to lead the army?" ”

Seeing that Zhu Di skipped all the links directly, the civil officials couldn't help but be full of consternation.

Shouldn't we first discuss whether such a matter can be resolved by diplomatic means, whether there is a need to send troops, and by the way, ask the opinions of the ministers, and finally this link?

And Chen Kan, who was about to doze off, also woke up all of a sudden.

He looked at a group of bewildered Wenchen with a strange expression, and a bold guess suddenly popped up in his heart.

Could it be that Zhu Di didn't convene the ministers yesterday?

Otherwise, how could these civil officials have such expressions?

Especially Ru Yu, the secretary of the military department and Jian Yi, the secretary of the household department, are even more like eating, and their faces are very gloomy.

For such a big matter as sending troops to the south, His Majesty didn't discuss it with them in advance, which was somewhat disrespectful to them.

But since Zhu Di has already made a thorough investigation of this matter at the court meeting, the only thing they can do is to swallow this bitter fruit.

The atmosphere in the main hall was very quiet, and there was no lively scene of the ministers competing with each other in the past.

Not only Wenchen, but even a group of noble generals were caught off guard by Zhu Di's sudden decision.

Especially Zhu Neng and Qiu Fu, who have not been in court for a long time.

Although Zhu Di convened them last night to discuss the matter, he only asked them their respective opinions on the affairs of the Yunnan border of Annan Li Jili and Chen Bing, but he did not say that he would decide the choice of the chief general today.

After a while, Chen Kan saw something.

Zhu Di is insecure, he has a weak heart, so he urgently needs a big victory to stabilize his position.

He has only been on the throne for two years, but in the past two years, the Ming Dynasty has not been stable, and those Jianwen remnants who are hiding in the shadows hide in the shadows from time to time to stumble him, plus after he ascended the throne, he confiscated all the rights of his uncles, brothers and nephews.

There are already rumors among the people that he is a mean and unkind monarch.

Now even a little Annan dares to disobey his orders, you must know that when the great grandfather was in power, under an order, the countries of the Quartet would not dare to disobey.

Li Jili's provocation fiercely stimulated Zhu Di's sensitive self-esteem.

That's why he directly skipped all the processes, hoping to suppress the domestic voice with the danger of a big victory in the conquest of Annan.

Chen Kan understood that the other people above the court were not stupid people, especially Zhu Neng and Qiu Fu, who had already begun to study the way of self-preservation, and they naturally knew what this Zhu Di's initiative to ask for help meant.

This means that the conquest of Annan must not only win, but also win cleanly and beautifully.

They are all veterans on the battlefield, and they know from the bottom of their hearts what Zhu Di wants them to do.

But it is precisely because they understand that they dare not take the initiative to ask for help.

After all, if this fails, or does not meet Zhu Di's expectations, the black gauze hat on his head will not be able to be kept, and the black gauze hat will not be able to keep it, and the important thing is the head.

The civil officials looked at a group of noble generals with grim faces.

As the head of the generals, Zhu Neng met Zhu Di's undoubted gaze, so he had to turn his head to look at Ru Yu and Jian Yi in the civil official camp, hoping that they could stand up and say something.

It's a pity, everyone is a human spirit, and as soon as Zhu Neng's eyes looked at him, Ru Yu instantly retracted the look of eating, and pretended to have an attitude that it was none of my business to look at the nose and nose and the heart.

Jian Yi's face is still pale, after all, once there is a war, he, the big housekeeper, can only live with his stomach.

But considering Zhu Di's attitude, Jian Yi still decided not to wade into this muddy water.

Don't be left behind by your majesty.

He has been dealing with money all year round, and the trade-off of interests is naturally a lot, so he simply lowered his head and pretended not to see Zhu Neng's gaze.

The hall was so quiet that it could be heard, and Zhu Neng saw the behavior of the two of them, and knew that he couldn't count on them.

He took a deep breath and was about to take a step.

But at this moment, a series of hurried footsteps sounded.

Everyone subconsciously looked at the person who came, and saw Sheng Yong walking to the center of the hall with an expression of looking at death as if he were at home.

He first glanced at Zhu Neng, who was the leader, a little apologetically, and then arched his hand towards Zhu Di and said: "Your Majesty, that pseudo-king Li Jili insulted me too much, my Ming Dynasty is the kingdom of the Heavenly Empire, how can I suffer this great humiliation, and the minister is willing to lead the troops south to retrieve the head of Li Jili, and admonish the countries of the four seas." ”

Seeing Sheng Yong, Zhu Di was stunned for a moment.

He didn't expect that the first person to stand up would be Sheng Yong, who had been sitting on the cold bench for two years.

To be honest, in the past two years, he has had the idea of killing Sheng Yong countless times in his heart, not only to avenge Zhang Yu who died at Sheng Yong's hands, but also to erase the shadow left when he was chased and intercepted by Sheng Yong.

The reason why he has not done anything has been mainly due to the influence of Sheng Yong in the Southern Army.

So although he desperately wanted to fight a beautiful turnaround, Sheng Yong had not been in his list of candidates, and at the same time, he didn't think that Sheng Yong would take the initiative to ask for help.

But now that Sheng Yong stood up, for a while, Zhu Di's mood was a little complicated.

After a while, Zhu Di continued to ask, "Which other Aiqing is willing to take the initiative to ask for help?" ”

When Sheng Yong heard this, a trace of loneliness flashed on his face unconsciously, did Your Majesty not even give him the opportunity to beg for death?
