Zhu Fang didn't know that someone had already solved the problem for him. He ate and drank slowly, listening to the sound of rain outside, and his heart became confused.
He hoped that the rain would not stop, and it would be better if it rained harder, so that he would not have to go back to the palace and stay here with the people of Xiaqiu Village, which was lively.
He felt that the people in the palace were truly respectful to him, while the people in Xiaqiu Village were actually just showing courtesy.
The children in Xiaqiu Village couldn't stop talking while eating.
The King of Qin himself is right next to him! Can you be so noisy? All right! Can!
Zhu Fang knew the status of Xiaqiu Village in his father's heart. Because of this, he dared to eat the food cooked by the people in Xiaqiu Village without worrying about anyone poisoning him.
At this moment, he didn't even want to sleep, so he just listened to the voices of the children in Xiaqiu Village.
'Bang bang bang bang... bang bang bang bang...' The sound of neat footsteps sounded, and you knew it was running.
Zhu Xi closed his eyes. Someone came from the palace. He must be calling him to go back. He hasn't finished eating yet!
"His Royal Highness King Qin." Sure enough, the footsteps stopped at the door and someone shouted.
Zhu Xi opened his eyes and looked through the light of the glazed lamp, Huh? Not from his own palace, nor from his father, this is...
"Your name is Zhu..."
"His Royal Highness the King of Qin, my name is Zhu Taiyi now. His Highness the Crown Prince sent an order from Kunning Palace, asking us to inform His Highness the King of Qin that we can stay at the inn in Xiaqiu Village tonight. In addition, His Highness the Crown Prince sent a letter."
Zhu Taiyi did not let King Qin say his real name. He handed over the letter and led the people to take off their raincoats and bamboo hats at the door, ignoring the water on their shoes and trousers for the time being.
"Ah?" Zhu Xi felt his breathing became easier for a moment. Did he allow himself not to go back?
He took the letter again, without a lacquer seal, obviously not afraid of others knowing. He took out the paper inside, which contained a paragraph: A secret letter from Xiaqiu Village came to the palace to talk about Wang Baobao. The father took back his second brother and you wanted to be a slave to Guanyin. , I asked you to lead the people of Xiaqiu Village to sell beer.
Zhu Ming suddenly turned his head to look at the chief. He remembered what the chief said just now: Your Highness, King Qin, sells beer with peace of mind. The rest is easy! Without him Wang Baobao, I would still have Zhu Hanhan in Ming Dynasty, right Hanhan?
For a moment, he felt that the sun was shining brightly outside, the air was fresh, and magpies were flying around and quacking at the door.
"Ah! Your Highness, King Qin, wants to live here? There are beddings in the store, but it's too shabby. This..." Li looked embarrassed.
"This is good. I'd rather live in poverty. I always sleep on silk or satin bedding. It's so slippery that people can't catch the quilt if they slip to the side."
Zhu Ming is very afraid of being driven away by the head of the village. Now, even if he is asked to lie down on the floor to sleep, it will be no problem, it will be cool!
A young man from a village agreed: "Your Highness is absolutely right. My village doesn't like to use silk quilts. Cotton quilts are better. In summer, they can be covered with thin quilts so that they can be cool when sleeping.
However, the mattress should be covered with a mat, and the pillow should be made of rice husk and wheat bran. The pillow should be replaced with a new one every two months, and the discarded pillow should be fed to the animals. "
"Yeah, yeah, yeah!" Zhu Xi nodded repeatedly, and now everything the other party said made sense to him.
Why do the people in Xiaqiu Village look so friendly? This little girl is pretty, with big and lively eyes. If Na...
No, I told my father before that I would only recruit son-in-laws who came to my house. Everyone's surname was Zhu, so I couldn't come to my house.
Don’t look at the little girl anymore, look at Hanhan, oh! How can you be so honest? The smile is so reassuring, so honest, not stupid at all, really!
There are also people in the village who are responsible for cooking. Look at how thin the slices of meat are! Look at that person's feet again. They took off their shoes and let them dry... Oh! comfortable!
At this moment, Zhu Xi liked everyone and everything he looked at. The hanging glazed lanterns are so gorgeous, and the mice on the beams under the lights are so energetic with their little eyes!
"Yes, there are rats!" Zhu Ping reacted and pointed to the beam.
His guards and the guards of the Prince's Mansion who came in behind drew their swords at the same time and looked up.
At this moment, a chopstick flew up, nailed the mouse and fell to the ground, squeaking.
"Master, change, uh-huh! Hey hey hey hey!" A naive voice sounded, and he only had one chopstick in his hand.
Guards: "..."
"Brother Hanhan is awesome, I'll get chopsticks for Brother Hanhan." The little girl shouted excitedly.
"Brother Hanhan is awesome!" Other friends shouted and clapped their hands.
"Hanhan is awesome!" Zhu Feng swallowed and admitted that he was very skilled, but he was just stupid.
Zhu Wentian threw the other chopstick over, and the guard took the chopstick to help pinch it, and took the mouse to the latrine at the back.
The chopsticks come in pairs. If you throw away one, you won't want the other.
"Chief, we haven't eaten yet!" As soon as Mrs. Zhu saw the mouse being dealt with, she remembered that her own stomach also needed to be dealt with.
"I'll go and serve two more." The person in charge of cooking stood up, and the others followed to help.
Meats and dishes are all ready-made, including soup, and charcoal.
After putting on a good show, those who came later took off their boots to wash their feet, put on the clogs in the store, and rolled up their wet trouser legs.
"It will be fine tomorrow. We just arrived today and are not prepared." The mayor apologized, but there were no extra clothes or shoes.
"His Royal Highness King Qin must not know what Zhu Lichang means." Taiyi Zhu introduced to Zhu Xi: "We have our own room and things in Xiaqiu Village, and we can change them at any time.
Officials from Ningguo Mansion and Xuancheng County, plus government officials, also have at least two sets of clothes in Xiaqiu Village.
They stayed at least one night when they arrived at Xiaqiu Village. To be honest, it was better to live in the village than in the Prince's Mansion. "
Zhu Fang continued to agree: "Okay! We feel good now! It's better for my brother to be kind to us and give the store to Xiaqiu Village. What's the use of the Four Treasures of the Study? Is it as refreshing as this beer?"
"His Royal Highness the King of Qin, the original pawn shop next to it! Our Xiaqiu Village actually wants to use it to sell the Four Treasures of the Study. The location is good."
The manager looked apologetic. According to our silly plan, your store is not suitable for selling the Four Treasures of the Study. It is too small. The one next to it will do.
Zhu Xi: "..."
He took a deep breath: "Okay, we think the four treasures of the study are good! So what's the use of a pawn shop? Is it as good as the smell of books?"
"His Royal Highness King Qin is so right." The little girl supported.
"Okay, okay! Hello, Your Highness, King Qin!" shouted other friends.
Zhu Xi clasped his fists and smiled sincerely. It was really a pleasure to meet the people in Xiaqiu Village.
Later, the guards and Zhu Taiyi had hot pot and a bowl of beer each. They did not dare to drink more and had to take turns to keep watch.
One of the guards had already finished eating and gone to bed, fearing that he would not be able to get up after sleeping.
Zhu Chong was not sleepy at all. He wanted to eat and drink slowly. He wanted to cry loudly, and he also wanted to run into the night rain and laugh crazily.
But he restrained himself and decided to make beer with Xiaqiu Village and help the village pay off the money it owed his brother first.
He deeply felt the power of Xiaqiu Village. His father trusted Xiaqiu Village. The construction of the Central Capital was stopped because of Xiaqiu Village.
Seeing everyone eating, the chief picked up the wine bowl and said, "Your Highness, King Qin, do you know bees and ants? They each have their own division of labor, and ultimately for the continuation of the race.
For them, the most terrifying thing is not the cold winter or the scorching heat. When encountering such situations, they will sacrifice part of themselves to maintain the survival of the group.
The scary thing is that they have different hearts. They identify each other by smell. Once the smell changes, they start to kill each other.
We can see this directly, changing their smell is very simple.
The same is true for people. People will not be disturbed by smells, but they will be affected by gossips.
I don’t know anything else about Xiaqiu Village. I only know that no matter what others say, the village guard is the first. I believe His Highness the King of Qin also understands. "
After saying that, Li Chang threw his head back and burped from the wine.
