As ministers, everyone here has never seen someone who can flatter you!
Each of these civil servants are elites who have fought hard on the road of imperial examination, and they are also very clear about puns!
But this is the first time I see someone flattering me with "one fart and two pats"!
"Only I, the Ming Dynasty, rule the world with filial piety! Your Highness, the Crown Prince, is loyal to your ministers and filial to your sons! Looking at all the princes in the past dynasties, only I, the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty, have both loyalty and filial piety!"
On the surface, this sentence is praising the prince, but in fact it is praising the successive emperors of the Lao Zhu family!
At this time, Zhu Houzhao felt as if he had taken a Shiquan Dabu Pill, Rongguang's face was full of excitement, and his hands were on his waist like a conspicuous bag!
Emperor Hongzhi stared deeply at Chen Ziyu. He was really very satisfied with this cheap son-in-law!
As an emperor, he can naturally hear Chen Ziyu's flattery, but being able to express flattery in such a fresh and refined way is truly an incredible skill!
Only then did Chen Rui in the audience react, shaking his whole body with excitement!
"Old Wang! Look, that's my son!"
"Lao Li! Look, my Lao Chen's seed is not bad!"
"Old Zhao! Why don't you look at me? Hey, don't go, Old Zhao!"
...
Under the stands, Chen Rui couldn't help but show off to his colleagues in front and behind him. He would be like walking at night in brocade clothes without returning home.
In his early years, his prodigal son was so ridiculous that he became the laughingstock of the entire capital. He was even so embarrassed that he, an earl, could not hold his head high in front of others!
But now things have changed!
Not only has my eldest son become mature and stable, but he has also been appreciated by the emperor and the prince. This is a great honor. I never dared to dream like this before, but now it has become a reality!
I remember that my eldest father's eldest father followed the King of Yan from Peking to Nanjing and almost died on the battlefield several times. He gave his life in exchange for a count for the old Chen family.
Then, his eldest father fought tooth and nail to protect the God of War in the earthen fort. Only then was he appreciated by the emperor, which further consolidated his title!
Although he was also ridiculous when he was young, he became much more stable after getting married. He followed the British Duke to fight in the north and south, and put down various rebellions!
In order not to bury the glory of our ancestors!
It's a pity that his wife died young, which made his son become extremely naughty!
Over the years, I almost thought that Pingjiang's residence would be ruined at the hands of his son!
did not expect……
Unexpectedly, things are different now. My own son was knocked down by me with a stick, and he became a princess and married him, which is how he got the status he has today!
Sometimes fate is so wonderful! Thinking of this, Chen Rui felt that the corners of his eyes couldn't help but feel moist!
"My dear brother, I want to see you!"
The little Taoist priest pursed his lips, still a little unconvinced.
At this time in previous years, he was the absolute protagonist, although King Xing often taught him to be as humble as possible in the palace.
But he just held his breath in his heart and lamented the unfairness of fate.
As the prince of the vassal, his knowledge and conversation far surpassed that of Zhu Houzhao, the prince.
Just because his father is the emperor, he will be the future emperor?
But it is clear that he also has authentic royal blood flowing through him.
Chen Ziyu naturally didn't know what Zhu Houcong was thinking. Since he wanted to see it, he would take this opportunity to promote things like cod liver oil and perfume soap.
Chen Ziyu turned his head and winked at Zhu Houzhao.
Zhu Houzhao understood immediately and quickly ordered people to bring up the gifts he prepared together with the gifts from the Princess Mansion!
In a short time, Liu Jin led several young eunuchs to bring the gifts up one by one and placed them in a row in the middle of the stand.
Seeing this, Zhu Houzhao stepped forward like a proud big rooster and bowed respectfully to the Queen Mother Zhou. Go to the gift.
He bent down and took out a big cabbage, held it in his hand, came to the little Taoist priest, and said with a playful smile: "Brother Geng, look carefully!"
Although the people present are not engaged in production, they are not fools. This kind of juicy vegetable has full leaves and the soil on the roots still smells a bit moist, as if it was just dug out of the ground. It has not been preserved at all. The kind that lasts a long time.
The little Taoist priest murmured to himself with some disbelief: "This... this is actually true?"
"What is true or false?" Zhu Houzhao curled his lips and said nonchalantly: "I still have a large area in Zhan Shifu. If Brother Geng is interested, you can go and take a look with me later!"
Emperor Hongzhi on the side stared at the cabbage in Zhu Houzhao's hand with some astonishment, and asked suspiciously: "Prince, what you said is true?"
"Father, if you don't believe it, you can ask Lao Chen. He knows everything."
Zhu Houzhao pushed Chen Ziyu forward.
Seeing Emperor Hongzhi's eyes directed towards him, Chen Ziyu nodded silently.
Emperor Hongzhi felt relieved and even his honest and trustworthy son-in-law nodded, so this matter must be absolutely true.
As the emperor, he is very aware of the far-reaching significance of this kind of thing. Once vegetables can be grown in winter, it can be directly promoted in the north, which will greatly reduce manpower and material resources to transport these things from other places.
What's more, since vegetables can be grown, wouldn't rice and wheat...
Emperor Hongzhi felt hot in his heart and looked at the cabinet Liu Jian and others in the audience.
As expected, Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, and Xie Qian all had fiery glints in their eyes!
"Great-grandmother, these are all researched by Lao Chen and I. I hope great-grandmother likes them!" Zhu Houzhao walked up to Empress Dowager Zhou like a treasure.
"Okay, okay! Good boy!" Queen Mother Zhou's eyes turned into slits when she smiled, and her old face was full of joy.
The eyes of the noble ministers in the audience changed when they looked at Chen Ziyu and Zhu Houzhao. In the eyes of everyone, filial people can never be so bad no matter how bad they are!

"Great-grandmother, that's not all!"
Seeing Empress Dowager Zhou smiling from ear to ear, Zhu Houzhao quickly took out a large robe from the box on the side.
"Great-grandmother, this is the longevity dress made by the common people in the western suburbs workshop who were grateful to the imperial court. When they learned that great-grandmother's birthday was coming, they voluntarily rushed to make it. Every word "longevity" on it was written and painted by the common people!"
Later, Zhu Houzhao handed the Wanshou Yi to the middle-aged eunuch beside him. The eunuch took it and presented it to Queen Mother Zhou.
Empress Dowager Zhou put away her smile, looked solemnly at the robes filled with symbols in front of her, and began to caress them carefully.
She knew about the Xijiao Workshop, and Emperor Hongzhi mentioned it to her, so it was natural that she knew it was not a lie.
There were few literate people among the people, so most of them just drew a few random strokes on their robes.
But even so, Queen Mother Zhou could imagine how much effort Zhu Houzhao and Chen Ziyu put in behind these things, just to win her favor!
