Chapter 194: Oral Message

Although Xu Xi is the next generation of Dingguo Gong, Chen Ju did not give in to his salute. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoBecause whether it is status or martial arts, Chen Ju can withstand this worship.

"What about Dingguo Gong?" Chen Ju asked, he didn't have time to say to Xu Xike.

"Grandpa, he's resting. Xu Xi's eyes were embarrassed, and he would definitely be scolded if he woke up his grandfather at this time.

Chen Ju's eyes widened, and Xu Xi didn't dare to hesitate. Xu Xi knew that Chen Ju's sudden appearance must be urgent, Chen Ju was the palm print eunuch beside the emperor, and his appearance meant that the emperor had an edict.

"Buddha, you come with me. Xu Xi took Chen Ju and walked to the room where Ding Guogong was resting.

On the way, Chen Ju asked, "How is Dingguo Gong doing lately?"

Xu Xi said: "Grandpa is very old, and he has been a little sleepy recently. A few days ago, the emperor sent a doctor to see him, and said that it was no big deal. ā€

"That's good, if you really need any rare medicinal materials one day, you can go to the palace to find me. ā€

Chen Ju's words were not said casually, Xu Xi was overjoyed when he heard it, "Then I will thank the Buddha for my grandfather first." ā€

I don't know who started to call the title of Buddha, but the important ministers of the court and the central government all called Chen Ju so respectfully in private. Xu Xi thinks that this title is very suitable for the old man in front of him.

When they arrived at the place, someone at the door was watching, and they all retreated when they saw Xu Xi coming.

"Buddha, please come in. Xu Xi pushed open the door and led Chen Ju in.

The house is fragrant, and on the opposite wall hangs a huge picture of a tiger descending from the mountain, in which the tiger is extremely majestic. The incense burner on the table slowly wafted out a faint incense mist, "This was brought by the imperial doctor, saying that it helps sleep." Xu Xi invited Chen Ju to sit down, and he poured tea himself, "Buddha wait, I'll go into the inner hall to call grandpa." ā€

Chen Ju nodded, picked up the teacup, and only smelled the faint aroma, which was refreshing. Look at the big tea leaves brewed in the cup, the leaves are divided into red for three, and the leaves are divided into seven for green, which is the best red robe, presumably rewarded by the emperor.

There is also an allusion to the origin of the name of this big red robe, Ding Xian, the champion of the Taizu period, entered Beijing to catch the exam, fell ill on the road when passing by Wuyi Mountain, and happened to meet the old monk who went down the mountain to turn his fate, so he carried him back to the temple. When the old monk saw that his face was pale, thin and bloated, he brewed the tea leaves he had picked with boiling water and drank several bowls in a row, so that he basically recovered in a few days. Ding Xian did not delay the time to enter Beijing to catch the exam. Before leaving, the old monk brought Ding Xian some tea with him to prevent him from getting ill again.

Later, Ding Xian won the champion, but he always took these tea leaves with him and was reluctant to drink them. Later, Queen Ma was seriously ill, and the imperial doctor in the palace was helpless. Ding Xian took out the tea and brewed it according to the old monk's method, Queen Ma's health improved after drinking, Taizu was overjoyed, gave him a red robe, and ordered him to go to Wuyi Mountain in person to show the emperor's grace.

Da Hong Pao got its name from this, and later became a tribute tea, and the people were not allowed to hide it privately.

Before Chen Ju finished drinking a cup of tea, he heard a scolding voice from the inner hall, "Little rabbit cub, didn't I say that no one came and didn't see anyone when I was sleeping?" The voice was loud and powerful, not like an old man.

"Grandpa, it's none other than someone else. This is Xu Xi's voice

"Could it be that the emperor is here in person?" This time his voice became smaller, and his tone was extremely respectful.

"It's the Buddha here. ā€

"Little rabbit cub! Why didn't you say it earlier when the Buddha is here!" Xu Wenbi became popular again.

Xu Xi didn't have any way to take this grandfather of his own, "Didn't I rush over as soon as possible, grandpa, don't scold me!"

"Don't scold you, don't scold you, you still don't go to heaven?" Xu Wenbi came briskly from the back hall, saw Chen Ju sitting on it, and hurriedly saluted. He and Chen Ju are of the same age, and the relationship between the two is very good, and this is his mansion, so it stands to reason that there is no need to salute. But Xu Wenbi knew that seeing Chen Ju was like seeing the emperor, and this ceremony was indispensable.

"Snub the Buddha, the old man is here to make amends. ā€

Chen Ju walked over, "I disturbed Dingguo Gongqing's dream, it should be me to make amends." ā€

Xu Wenbi said with a smile: "The Buddha and the old man don't have to be polite, is there any edict from the Holy One?"

Chen Ju nodded and glanced at Xu Xi. Xu Xi exited the room playfully.

Xu Wenbi saw that Chen Ju had come with the emperor's edict and was about to kneel, but was stopped by Chen Ju.

"Buddha, this ritual cannot be less. "The Xu family has been loyal to the Ming Dynasty for generations, and although Xu Wenbi is old, he is not confused.

Chen Ju stood up straight and bowed for Zhu Yijun, and then told the matter.

"It's top secret at this time, and it must be done well. Chen Ju said that this stopped.

Xu Wenbi also knows the temper of this son of heaven, if he can't do it, I'm afraid that the Xu family will decline from now on. nodded immediately and said, "Buddha just rest assured, I'll tell Xi'er to do it now." ā€

Chen Ju said: "This is very good, I can't stay for a long time, I have to go back to the palace." ā€

"Then I won't send someone to send the Buddha. Xu Wenbi had already guessed that Chen Ju didn't go through the gate, so naturally he couldn't send someone to see him off. It's best to let him leave quietly, it wouldn't be good if the news leaked.

After Chen Ju left, Xu Xi pushed the door in, "Grandpa, is there any edict from the Holy Lord?"

Xu Wenbi repeated again, Xu Xi's face was ugly, "Why did you choose our Xu family?"

"Because our surname is Xu, she is also surnamed Xu. Xu Wenbi's old eyes were gloomy, as if he was worried.

"Hey, I can't imagine that the surname Xu is wrong, who is going to reason with this. Xu Xi smiled bitterly

"You immediately give the order to go down, and the whole house will speak in unison. Xu Wenbi instructed

Xu Xi hurriedly ran out, and when he came back, his face was even more ugly, and sweat was streaming down his forehead. Xu Wenbi said badly, "What's wrong?"

"The two guards at the gate said that today there was a woman who claimed to be the granddaughter of Dingguo Gong, my sister, and was going home to visit relatives. Xu Xi was halfway through his words, and the anxious Xu Wenbi asked, "What is this woman's name?"

"Xu Jinyu"

As soon as these three words came out, Xu Wenbi was dumbfounded, why was his heart so unlucky? Now even if he is from Dingguogong, he regrets his surname Xu a little. Although this surname has brought him countless glory, the situation today is very dangerous.

"Grandpa, what should I do?" Xu Xi couldn't make up his mind, if he let the emperor know, the consequences would be unimaginable.

After all, Xu Wenbi had seen the world, and thought about it: "You immediately arrange for the two gatekeepers to leave Beijing tonight, bring enough money, and never come back." ā€

"Yes!" Xu Xi immediately turned around, and listened to his grandfather again: "There is also an immediate order to go down from now on to close the door and thank the guests, and all the cadres in the mansion are not allowed to leave the house within a month, and eating, drinking, and Lazar are all solved in the mansion!"

"But the food in the house is only enough for half a month, what should I do if I don't have anything to eat?" Xu Xi was a little embarrassed

"Hungry!" Xu Wenbi was anxious, "Even if you starve to death, you will die in the mansion for me!"

Xu Xi pushed the door out in a gloomy manner, he was very afraid of this hot-tempered grandfather.
