Chapter 38: Hmph, little sweet potato, it's really ridiculous!

When Zhu Zhan left Renshou Palace and walked towards Qingning Palace, it was already the end of the hour, that is, eight o'clock and nine o'clock.

The early dynasties of the spring and winter seasons of the Ming Dynasty are generally at four o'clock.

In summer and autumn, the time of the early dynasty is a little earlier, about two minutes in advance, that is, at half past five.

Of course, this is the beginning of the court, not the preparation for the court.

Generally before that, the ministers have to get up at midnight, travel half of the capital to the noon gate, and wait until 5 o'clock before the palace gate opens.

After the palace gate was opened, the hundred officials entered in turn, and then behind the Fengtian Gate, the square under the Fengtian Palace formed a team.

If one of them behaves unsteadily, he will be recorded by the imperial historian in charge of picketing and will be dealt with.

When the emperor arrives at the Fengtianmen or Fengtian Palace, the hundred officials will kneel and kowtow three times to salute the emperor, and only officials above the fourth rank will have the opportunity to report government affairs to the emperor and talk to the emperor.

A whole set of cumbersome processes down, grinding and rubbing up to the court is just this point.

Generally, the time is uncertain.

Sometimes it is four quarters at the hour, and sometimes it will go down at the beginning of the hour, of course, if the emperor is unhappy, it is another matter.

Zhu Zhanrong waved his hand to signal that the palace maid and eunuch did not have to salute, and then came all the way to the dining room, and saw his mother and third brother Zhu Zhanyong sitting at the dining table to eat.

Well? It stands to reason that this time should also go to court, right, my father and eldest brother haven't come back yet? "Mother, third brother!"

I wanted to think about it, but Zhu Zhan Huang still said hello first.

Hearing the sudden sound behind him, Zhang's body, who was eating, couldn't help but tremble, and the next moment he turned around violently.

When I saw my son standing at the door, my eyes turned red.

A pair of bright big eyes suddenly began to rise, and his hand suddenly covered his mouth, and he choked up: "Son, how are you?" ”

Looking at his mother, whose eyes were red and lying in tears, Zhu Zhan couldn't help but have a sour nose.

Although he naturally knew the content sent by the third brother Zhu Zhanyong to the group leader before, his mother also noticed his abnormality.

But from beginning to end, the Zhang family never came to Renshou Palace to visit him, and with Zhang's character, he basically went wherever he wanted in this palace.

And the old man won't be too harsh on her.

But she was sensible and didn't make it difficult for the old man.

Obviously, as smart as Zhang, she has already sensed something.

After all, the abnormality is either the person next to the pillow or the son, and it is difficult not to find out.

Therefore, no matter how much she cared about her son's condition in her heart, she was sensible and did not come to Renshou Palace.

Although her husband and two sons repeatedly assured her that Zhu Zhan would have no problems, she just couldn't rest assured.

Now that she saw her son appear, she couldn't hold back anymore.

"Fifth brother!" Unlike the Zhang family, who didn't know the inside story, Zhu Zhanyong knew that once Zhu Zhanrong walked out of Renshou Palace, it would mean that it would be fine.

Of course, he was also very surprised at this time.

After all, during the day yesterday, the immortal arranged for the fifth brother to retreat, and said that it was up to Zhu Zhan to come out by himself, but he didn't expect that it would only be good after one night.

Although he had a lot of questions in his heart, he didn't say much in front of Zhang, just gave Zhu Zhan a smile.

In any case, it's good that the fifth brother is fine.

"It worries my mother." Zhu Zhan stepped forward, stretched out his hand to wipe away Zhang's tears, and then rolled his eyes, and then began to dance with an extremely exaggerated expression, pinching his throat and saying funny:

"Yo, look, look! Tsk, which one of these people has no eyesight to provoke our beautiful princess, her eyes are swollen from crying, if you let the prince see it, if you can't recognize a daughter-in-law, isn't it a catastrophe? ”

"But watch your skin carefully!"

"Poof!" Looking at his baby son's strange appearance, Zhang couldn't help but break his skills, raised his hand and slapped off his baby son's paws, rolled his eyes, and said angrily: "Speak well, learn what eunuch voice!" ”

Zhu Zhanyong, who was on the side, saw the fifth brother playing with his mother, but he just smiled faintly, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the fifth brother really came out.

Thinking about it, Zhu Zhanyong's heart moved, and he gave the group owner a private message: [Zhu Zhanyong, the grandson of the Ming Emperor: Thank you for the guidance of the immortals to the fifth brother. 】

"Come, son, sit down and eat." Zhang waved his hand, let Zhu Zhanrong sit beside him, and then peeled a tea egg for Zhu Zhanrong, and then greeted Zhu Zhanrong on the side: "Son, don't be stupid, hurry up and eat." ”

"Hmm." Zhu Zhanyong nodded slightly.

"Thank you, mother." Zhu Zhan Yong smiled and thanked him, and at this time, the chat group popped up a private chat message from the third brother Zhu Zhan Yong.

With a smile in his heart, Zhu Zhan closed the chat group.

"By the way, mother, what about my father and eldest brother?" Zhu Zhan took a bite of the tea egg, took a bite of pickles, and looked at Zhang: "This point should also go down, right?" ”

While sandwiching the vegetables for Zhu Zhandong, Zhang said: "It is said that it is the discovery of a high-yield new grain variety that can make the people never worry about not having enough to eat in the future." ”

"The old man announced it in the court today, it should be that this matter has been delayed."

Are new grains to be announced? A flash of surprise flashed in Zhu Zhandong's eyes, and then he secretly calculated the current month, and suddenly became surprised.

"Also, at this time, the sweet potato and potato seeds will be dialed down, just in time for this year's autumn planting, and the imperial court can also determine the real yield data per mu as soon as possible."

Thinking about it, Zhu Zhandong's heart moved, and his divine sense poked out from the center of his eyebrows, came to the sky above Qingning Palace, and then walked towards the three main halls in the west.

As his cultivation broke through to the second stage of refining qi and transforming gods, the radius of his divine consciousness skyrocketed by more than two times, reaching six thousand meters!

With him as the center, that is, within a radius of twelve miles, as long as he wants, not even an ant can escape his eyes.

In the west of Qingning Palace, the three halls separated by a wall are Fengtian Palace, Huagai Hall and Jinshen Palace.

Soon, Zhu Zhan Yuan locked the Fengtian Temple.

Generally speaking, in the ordinary court, the court meeting is in the Jinshen Palace, but this time it is in the Fengtian Temple.

The Fengtian Hall is generally only used when major ceremonies are held and when receiving congratulations from civil and military officials, such as the new emperor's accession to the throne.

And in the name of heaven, as the name suggests, it rules the world by the mandate of heaven.

However, the reason why today's court meeting was chosen in Fengtian Temple, Zhu Zhan Yuan only understood it after a little thought.

The discovery of new grain varieties means that the people of the Ming Dynasty no longer need to worry about food.

This kind of thing, if it is put on an ordinary person, solves the food problem of the people, and allows countless people to eat, it will definitely be consecrated by a monument.

It must be recorded in history as a saint and will be famous for eternity!

If it is placed on an emperor, then the absolute approval is a merit of transcending the ages, what is Zhu Di's biggest heart disease?

There is no doubt that he is plotting to seize the throne of his nephew, which is a stain that he cannot wash away, but if he distributes these new grains to the people.

Compared with his merits, snatching Jianwen's throne is a small flaw that is not worth mentioning.

In addition, in the future, the Ming Dynasty became the Xiuxian Dynasty, and it was also from his dynasty that he was a proper ancient emperor!

The beginning of such a grand event was naturally to be held in the Fengtian Temple.

Zhu Zhandong's divine sense came to the Fengtian Palace, just in time for Zhu Di to listen to the summary of the prince, the king of Han, and the king of Zhao in charge of the country during this period of time.

Next, it is the important moment to announce the grain seeds.

"Over there, we must ensure that Zhang Fu's food and grass for fighting can be sufficient, so that the soldiers have no worries." Zhu Di sat on the dragon chair with a calm expression, one hand gently rubbing the jade wrench on his thumb.

"Yes!" At this time, a tall old man in his early fifties, dressed in a crimson robe and holding an ivory wat in his hand, walked out in good spirits.

Looking at the old man, a smile appeared on the corner of Zhu Di's mouth and he bowed slightly.

Xia Yuanji is also one of the few old ministers of Jianwen in the court who has not been cleared, and even in the past, he couldn't do without this person!

This is one of his most trusted courtiers besides the five elders of the cabinet.

"You must be very puzzled today, why do I want to hold a court meeting in this Fengtian Temple?" After Xia Yuanji stepped back, Zhu Di raised the sleeves of the wide dragon robe, changed his posture, overlooked the ministers below, and then gave Zhu Gaochi a look.

Zhu Gaochi bowed and shouted outside the main hall: "Bring it up!" ”

At the same time, Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Han, and Zhu Gaosui, the king of Zhao, who were standing below, glanced at each other, and their faces were full of color.

After today, who would dare to say that their family was born in rebellion?

The five elders of the cabinet standing in the front row had different expressions on their faces, they all noticed the expressions on the faces of the two kings, and then combined with His Majesty's abnormal behavior today, they couldn't help but remember that more than half a month ago, King Han and King Zhao led troops to seal Zhongshan.

After that, several more mountains were heavily armed.

"Isn't it related to that?" Several old foxes glanced at each other without a trace, and instantly understood each other's meaning.

The other courtiers were also secretly thinking.

After a while, more than a dozen eunuchs, each holding a wooden plate in their hands, on which were placed two kinds of grain, sweet potatoes and potatoes were impressively listed.

For a while, when the ministers of the court and the central government saw this, they couldn't help but talk about it.

Zhu Di saw the expressions of the ministers below in his eyes, smiled, and said, "Wait, does anyone know these things on the plate?" ”

Zhu Di raised his hand and nodded at Yang Shiqi and said, "Come and see." As he spoke, he said to the eunuch holding the sweet potato, "Take it to Yang Hanlin." ”

The eunuch approached respectfully, bowing his head and bringing the tray closer.

Yang Shiqi frowned and glanced suspiciously at Zhu Di, who was smiling on the dragon chair, and under the curious gaze of the ministers, he picked up the washed sweet potatoes and looked at them for a while, and wrinkles couldn't help but appear in the corners of his eyes.

Then, Yang Shiqi shook his head helplessly, holding an ivory wat in one hand and a sweet potato in the other, turned to look at Zhu Di, and said:

"The minister is shallow and has never known this thing."

The corners of Zhu Di's mouth rose slightly, and an imperceptible smile appeared in his eyes, and then he said:

"It's called sweet potato, and it's a completely new grain."

Oh, it was grain. Yang Shiqi was stunned, still unimpressed, and secretly pinched the sweet potato, feeling a little disdainful.

It's ugly, it's weird, and it deserves to be called a grain seed?

Hmph, little sweet potato, I don't know what to say, it's really ridiculous! Yang Shiqi looked indifferent.

When the others heard this, they looked at the ugly sweet potato, and they also shook their heads secretly, not optimistic that this thing could be called a grain seed.
