The young master is really interesting, at least Luo Zhong who is stationed outside Dinghuai Gate thinks so.
Luo Zhong is the commander-in-chief and a seventh-grade military attache. He has four hundred and fifty brothers in charge.
I have just received an order to come to Dinghuaimen to garrison, and temporarily listen to the command of Xu Qin, a doctor in the Ministry of Rites.
The biggest reluctance in his heart was to stay in the military camp in the cold and snow. Why did he have to come to Dinghuai Gate?
Is there anything the Ministry of Rites needs to help prevent? And he also listened to the command of a fifth-grade civil servant. He came with emotions.
There is a market outside Dinghuai Gate. Now there is only a gate and a sign, not even a courtyard wall.
There are opinions, but after General Luo arrived, he still built the camp on the spot in accordance with the requirements of the regulations. Everything is in accordance with the requirements for deployment.
Then he saw the sixteen or seventeen-year-old fifth-grade official, and he became even more angry.
What is this? We have traveled thousands of miles and killed countless people to be a seventh-rank official, but he, a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, is a fifth-rank official?
But when he knew that this young man was the young prince, the resentment in his heart dissipated a lot.
The greatest contributor to the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the grandson of Xu Da, King of Zhongshan, and the future Duke of Wei. It's really not high for someone to be a fifth-rank official.
The first thing Xu Qin did when he arrived was that each soldier was given two pairs of fine cotton socks. He also illegally killed an old scalper and gave everyone a meal of beef.
Killing cows is illegal, but no one in the military camp dares to interfere.
There's nothing that a barbecue can't solve, or two.
In ancient times, barbecue was far more fun than later generations. Barbecue in later generations was about condiments. But ancient people could bake anything, and they could bake it in a variety of ways.
Xu Qin prepared the barbecue ingredients himself. His family sold seafood and had plenty of various spices. Except for chili peppers, he basically found all the other ingredients.
At least that's what he thought. He marinated the beef in advance according to the method of later generations, and then let the chef grill it.
At first he thought he wanted to train a chef, but as soon as he got started, he had nothing to do.
He is a master of two knives but a master of barbecue. But you still have to adjust the dipping sauce yourself.
A special roast beef meal is always satisfying. Soldiers are all naive. After drinking a few glasses of wine, they almost fell in love with Xu Qin.
She patted her chest and assured him that she would hit wherever the young master pointed.
Then Xu Qin wanted to see what a fire gun looked like, but Luo Zhong didn't take it seriously at all.
He directly asked his sentry commander to demonstrate. Xu Qin was disappointed when he saw it. Today's firecrackers do not look like matchlocks later.
It turned out to be straight, with a wooden handle connected to a round iron pipe. When used, light the match rope and shoot iron marbles or special arrows.
The largest one is called a cannon, the slightly smaller one is called a fire gun, and the smaller one is called a hand gun. In fact, it is a metal pipe that is fired with a match rope.
This thing is too primitive, but it is still very powerful when used. It is very lethal between at least ten to two hundred steps.
After saying this, Luo Zhong was very proud, and Xu Qin thought it was better to go back and eat meat. From ten steps to two hundred steps, this range calculation is too nonsense.
As for accuracy, it all depends on experience. There is no aiming device for firearms yet.
This Shenji Battalion could still show its prowess during the Yongle Northern Expedition. After seeing the firearms of later generations, Xu Qin completely lost interest in this thing.
The list of shops put up for sale was announced, and the whole court was in an uproar. Xu Qin was completely merciless, and there were very few shops owned by princes and nobles.
Li Zhigang received various greetings on his way to court and home, and they all smiled and complimented him for his uprightness and integrity.
Some are true, and most are false. Destroying someone's wealth is like killing one's parents. Li Zhigang has experienced three dynasties, how can he not understand.
He was so miserable that he couldn't tell, his teeth were bleeding from his bite, and he wanted to tear Xu Qin alive. It was agreed that he would take the blame, but now he is taking the blame?
There's no way he can get away with it if he goes on like this. No one believes him when he says he doesn't know about it. No matter how domineering Xu Qin is, he will never fail to give face to your immediate boss.
Who would believe you when you say you have no idea? Li Zhigang's son, who was studying in the Imperial College, was blocked in an alley and beaten.
Now I don’t even dare to leave my house. The problem is that Li Zhigang can't find Xu Qin. This guy shamelessly hides in the military camp.
There were more people who hated Xu Qin, but no one dared to go to the military camp to cause trouble. So this punching bag can only be Li Zhigang.
Li Zhigang was going crazy. He couldn't stay in the officialdom if he continued like this.
So he was the first to ask questions at the meeting.
"Your Majesty, I believe that the list of candidates announced this time is unfair. Please review it again." Li Zhigang was the first to come out to blame.
Zhu Di glanced at him and felt funny. That bastard set a fire and hid in the military camp and couldn't come out. This made Li Zhigang miserable.
"No need, I've seen this list, let's handle it accordingly." Zhu Di said coldly.
Li Zhigang breathed a sigh of relief and took a step back.
You have all seen it, I don’t know this list at all. It's all the fault of His Majesty and Xu Qin.
Although it would be embarrassing to do so, the dignified Minister of Etiquette could not even control the doctor below. Tell it and make people laugh.
But it's better than being the target of public criticism.
After the list was sent out, Li Zhigang was unhappy. But the Hanwang steward was so frightened that his hands trembled.
"How dare he do this? Is he a madman or a fool?" Hanwang's butler felt as if he had been slapped a dozen times, and his face was burning.
The King of Han asked him to send the list of shops, and he sent not only those from the King of Han's family.
That day Xu Qin was almost groveling to the King of Han on the street. Everyone thought that he was being manipulated by the King of Han.
Everyone in the Han Palace felt that Xu Qin was a playboy who bullied the weak and was afraid of the strong. He dared to be arrogant and domineering when meeting others, but he had no choice but to obey orders when meeting the King of Han.
So the housekeeper secretly packed in many shops, even more than those in the Hanwang family.
Of course, these are not stuffed in for nothing. He took in the virgins trained by the salt merchants, the houses and shops in Nanjing City, and all kinds of antiques and curios.
There were also banquets hosted by no less than a dozen nobles, and recently he was simply more prestigious than the King of Han.
Moreover, these people promised him that after he actually went to sea, they would still have goods from the sea. The housekeeper can say that he is very proud of himself.
Now, he no longer dares to think about it. Xu Qin messed with him like this and it was over. He was so glorious before and now he will die miserably.
You can return all the curios and curios from the house shop, but the girl's melon has been torn and cannot be sewn back.
No, this matter must be brought to the attention of the King of Han. Only the King of Han can save me.
The King of Han was in a court meeting, and he really hadn't heard anything about the list in the past two days. He didn't know until Li Zhigang mentioned it.
But he didn't take it seriously. After all, he thought Xu Qin didn't dare to go against his will, and even if there was something fishy, it wouldn't be his family's turn.
His eyes were fixed on the position of the head of the ministers. In that position sat the current prince Zhu Gaochi. She is obese, has bad legs and feet, and even has to sit down during court meetings.
Why isn't he a loser? That position should be mine. Sooner or later I'm going to move you down and sit in that position, or I'm going to stand in that position.
Only trash sits.
"Qin Tianjian has already calculated that the first day of the next month will be an auspicious day, which will coincide with the tribute ceremony. All ministries should cooperate with the Ministry of Etiquette."
Zhu Di announced something at that time.
"Father, my minister has many places to fight with troops and too few guards. Please ask my father to increase the number of Tiance guards to my minister."
Zhu Gaoxu said loudly at the ceremony.
There was silence as he spoke. The civil servants bowed their heads and remained silent, and the generals were extremely excited.
The prince sat calmly on the chair, unmoved. In fact, my eyelids are twitching.
The King of Han has made great contributions to the country, and as the son of the current emperor, it does not seem to be a big deal to want an army.
But the word "Tiance" will inevitably make people think about it. Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, was the general of Tiance before he ascended the throne.
And Li Shimin also became the emperor after killing his eldest brother. Is the second child trying to express his feelings?
"Prince, what do you think?" Zhu Di, a cunning old man, kicked the ball to the prince.
"My second brother's request is reasonable and reasonable. I think it's okay. I'd like to ask my father to make a decision." Prince Zhu Gaochi said with a smile.
Like a Maitreya Buddha.
Although Zhu Di had already established a prince, he still liked his second son, and he fought to the death in the battle of Jingnan. And it was a great debt for him not to be able to become the prince.
Just a military guard of several thousand people.
"Okay, then the Tiance Guards will be classified as the guards of the King of Han." Zhu Di decided on the spot.
Civil servants all sighed secretly, this is not a blessing to the country. But no one dared to say anything. After all, Xie Jin had just been demoted to Guangxi.
It was because of the impeachment of the King of Han that he was charged with alienating the relatives of the Tian family. Who dares to say anything now?
The generals were very excited. They were all on Zhu Gaoxu's side. After all, they all came down from the Jingnan battlefield together, and they were all stirring up the same pot.
When Zhu Gaoxu became emperor, everyone was easy to talk to.
It was not until noon that the court broke up, and all the officials from various ministries left one after another. Only Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaoxu remained.
The old father Zhu Di wanted to have dinner with his two sons. The Crown Princess and Princess Han were already waiting in the harem with their children.
After everyone greeted each other, Zhu Di called for a banquet. There were three fathers and sons at one table, and two concubines and their children at one table.
"Second brother, don't just focus on fighting. You should also take care of your own home." After drinking for three rounds, the prince spoke with a smile.
It doesn't seem to mean anything, just a casual sentence.
Zhu Gaoxu always regarded the prince's words as farts, so he didn't even raise his head. But Princess Wei of Han could not.
In name, she was in charge of the Han Palace, so she quickly stood up and apologized. After all, it was the prince who apologized first and then asked what happened.
Just as he was about to stand up, he was held back by the Crown Princess.
"Leave him alone, he is just gossiping, don't take it seriously." The Crown Princess grabbed Wei Shi and said.
But Webster has heard it and cannot pretend that he has not heard it.
"Well, tell me what's wrong? The boss never likes to care about other people's affairs. Now it should be very serious to say it out."
Zhu Di said casually, his eyes scanning the dishes.
"This matter is still caused by the list of people who have entered the market. The housekeeper of the second family has been very popular recently. I heard that most of the nobles in the court have gone his way and want to put their own shops into the market."
The prince said with a smile. This was said casually, but it was a hidden needle that could kill someone with one move.
You, the King of Han, have made friends with most of the nobles in the court. What do you want to do?
Zhu Gaoxu's eyebrows, which resembled Zhu Di's, moved. The boss was seeing thunder in a silent place.
"I have been busy with military affairs recently and have forgotten to take care of my family. Wait for me to take care of him when I get back." Zhu Gaoxu said lightly.
Zhu Gaochi nodded, picked up a glass of wine and toasted his father, accompanied by Zhu Gaoxu.
"What the second brother said is that you should take good care of him. What you know is that he is bold and greedy, but those who don't know think it is the second brother's idea. It is easy for people to overthink. This kind of person cannot be kept around..."
The prince said with a smile. It seemed that he was giving Zhu Gaoxu advice.
"Okay, listen to Big Brother. As long as Big Brother doesn't think too much, I won't be afraid." Zhu Gaoxu said with a smile.
Princess Han was sweating. Zhu Di picked up the wine glass and interrupted the words of his two sons.
