"Father is in a good mood?"
Zhu Biao followed closely and got into the carriage.
The emperor's carriage and horses moved forward slowly in Yingtian Mansion. Although the emperor closed his eyes and said nothing, Zhu Biao could feel a hint of joy from his father.
Obviously, these joys are due to Zhang Yi's recognition of Zhu Yuanzhang in his words.
Maybe there was a trace of inferiority in my father's heart that no one else had seen, but it was peeked at by the little brother of the Zhang family, or the god behind him.
Zhang Yi's recognition of the emperor is also the immortal's recognition of Zhu Yuanzhang.
It is difficult for people living in this era to ignore the influence of immortals.
"Father, I think the old god behind the Zhang family's younger brother is quite magical. If not, we will treat the Zhang family..."
"No, just do what you have to do?"
Zhu Yuanzhang interrupted Zhu Biao's words and opened his eyes. There was no trace of emotion in his eyes, only the calmness of an emperor.
"The things of the gods can be trusted, but cannot be followed! Since the old god of the Zhang family predicted what I will do, I will do what he said. If he does not want to train his own descendants, I will help him train them!
Public is public, private is private, but don’t make a mistake about the mark! "
"But Father, after all, it is the old god who is watching..."
"So what? I am the emperor, let alone Zhang Daoling, who is just a heavenly master. Even if the king of heaven wants to take advantage of my power, I will tell him about it! I respect ghosts and gods, but I am not afraid of ghosts and gods... Son, you have to remember this!"
When Zhu Biao heard this, he lowered his head and said yes.
"Do you know why I wanted to keep that child?"
"Is it because my father likes Zhang Yi?"
"Wrong, I think Zhang Yi is valuable. Whether it is him or the immortal behind him, I think they are useful! You must remember the emperor's mind and personal preferences can be put aside. The relationship between monarch and ministers is essentially Or use it!"
The emperor said such cruel words, which made Zhu Biao's little heart unable to accept it for a while.
Lao Zhu glanced at him indifferently and said, "You have to understand that except family members, no one else can be trusted!"
"I don't know why Zhang Daoling, the old immortal Zhang, said these things through the mouth of his descendants, but what he said is useful to me, and I will give the Zhang family a way to survive. But if he really thinks that he can influence my will, then that's it. You underestimate me! But currently, it seems that the old immortal of the Zhang family has not revealed my identity to the child..."
When Zhu Yuanzhang said this, his face turned dark inexplicably.
"Looking back, I want people to find that guy named Zhang Han. He dares to spread rumors that I am a shoehorn? He doesn't want to live anymore?"
From the moment Zhang Yi said that he had a shoehorned face, Lao Zhu understood that this kid really didn't know his identity.
However, when he thought about being rumored for no reason, he became furious.
Zhu Biao wanted to laugh but didn't dare, so he could only lower his head and endure it.
"Go back and ask the palace to give Zhang Changsheng fifty taels... no, one hundred taels of silver to decorate the portrait of Zhang Zhenren in Longhu Mountain!"
"puff!"
When Zhu Biao heard this, he couldn't hold it back any longer, he burst out laughing.
Seeing the emperor glaring at him, he quickly lowered his head and apologized:
"Father, I thought of something funny..."
"You also want to lie to me. Do you think I'm stingy when you think of what that kid said?"
"Of course not, I don't dare!"
Zhu Biao waved his hand and refused to admit Lao Zhu's accusation. The father and son stared at each other, and Lao Zhu snorted coldly:
"What's wrong with me being a stingy old farmer? I'll teach you a lesson when I get back!"
"By the way, if you have the opportunity in the future, you can get closer to Zhang Yi. Since you promised Zhang Normal to take care of him, naturally you can't be too alienated!
If that old god from the Zhang family could give me more tips for his own sake, I wouldn't mind giving Longhushan some more benefits! "
"Yes, Father!"
Prince Zhu Biao lowered his head and took in everything the emperor said.
He thought carefully, and it seemed that Zhang Yi's evaluation of his father was basically correct.
"One emperor through the ages...?"
The emperor repeated these words in a voice that only he could hear.
Thinking back to when he was still Zhu Chongba, his parents starved to death in front of him. At that time, he only resented the corrupt officials who embezzled the disaster relief food, and resented the cannibalistic world. He didn't even dare to think about it, or to blame that person. The aloof emperor seemed to be the sky.
As he gradually became a king, he also knew how difficult it was to be a king.
After dreaming back at midnight, even he himself felt that his experience was too fantasy. Can he really be a good emperor?
Looking at the past dynasties, except for Liu Bang, the founder of the Han Dynasty, who was barely similar to himself, none of the other emperors came from a wealthy family. Even if they had not been emperors, they had been destined to be rulers. How could they be like themselves who were blind and had to learn everything?
Lao Zhu has always been under pressure that others don't know about. He is very worried that one day in the land of the Ming Dynasty, someone will be like him and curse him as a dog emperor.
But today, someone told him that he would become an emperor for eternity, or that he had a chance to become an emperor for eternity.
A smile couldn't help but appear on the corner of Zhu Yuanzhang's mouth.
"Let's increase the reward to two hundred taels! Well, no more!"
The emperor decided to be a little capricious.
Before I knew it, night fell.
Under the cover of night, another father and son also sat looking at each other in a Taoist temple in Yingtian Mansion.
Zhang Changsheng and Zhang Yi, father and son, had been looking at each other without speaking for a long time.
Zhang Yi lowered his head, looked at the three rooms and one hall dug out under his feet, and sighed.
Although he understood that Zhang Changsheng wanted to say something to make up for the relationship between father and son, how could this thing be improvised?
What's more, the person living in his heart is an adult, with his own thoughts, and what he sees and hears is his feelings. It's useless even if Zhang Normal talks like a lotus flower.
He doesn't hate Zhang Chenggong, but he can't be close to him either. This is Zhang Yi's truest feeling.
Zhang Chengcheng probably felt that he couldn't stand the awkward atmosphere anymore.
He simply stood up and bowed to Zhang Yi.
"Father, this is impossible!"
Zhang Yi didn't expect that Zhang Changsheng would reach this point. This was not the future of his life.
In the ancient times when the king of heaven and earth were the master, the father represented the supreme authority, and Lao Zhang's bow was too heavy.
"I, Zhang Zhongcheng, am not good at academics. I mistakenly thought you were a evil star because of my father. However, Zhang Yi, I have a request as a father. I hope you agree!"
Zhang Changsheng refused to get up and knelt down directly.
Zhang Yi was weak, but he still tried to maintain his position of supporting him. Seeing that he couldn't stop him, Zhang Yi simply jumped aside and refused to accept Zhang Chenggong's gift.
"Dad, if you have anything to say, just tell me!"
Although he understood that Zhang Changshang did this because he was asking for something from him, Zhang Yi had no choice but to agree to Zhang Changshang's request.
"You are not a thing in the pond, and you are favored by our ancestors. I want to beg you. If you have the opportunity one day, please help my Zhang family to regain the title of Heavenly Master!"
Zhang Chenggong's request was both unexpected and reasonable.
Zhang Yi was speechless. After a moment of silence, he asked:
"Dad, I'm just a child. Why do you think I have the ability to take back the title of Heavenly Master?"
You have met the emperor after all, I have never even seen the emperor’s face..."
Lao Zhang hesitated to speak, but in the end he did not dare to hint Zhang Yi's identity as Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhang Yi was just a child and could not hide things.
If the suspicious emperor found out that Zhang had changed, he might also be angry at Longhu Mountain.
However, Zhang Yi was already the only opportunity that Zhang Changsheng could seize, and of course he refused to give up.
Seeing Zhang Chenggong's gaze, almost pleading, Zhang Yi was helpless.
This was my father's lifelong worry, Zhang Yi knew it.
