On the third day of Xu Chu, the children of Xiaqiu Village, led by the village chief, pushed Wei Su and rushed to the banquet, outside Fengtian Gate.
There is the Jinshui Bridge here, which is actually called the Wulong Bridge and the Inner Jinshui Bridge. There is also an Outer Jinshui Bridge outside, where lanterns can be placed on the bridge and fireworks can be set off in front.
Wei Su was pushed and watched as everyone entered through the always open Donghua Gate, then turned west, passed by Fengtian Hall, and arrived at the south of Fengtian Gate.
No one questioned me along the way. The people on patrol smiled and said hello when they saw me. It was considered a kind of questioning!
How can you do this? Undefended? It was so late, even the six ministers on duty had to look at their waistbands when walking around the city.
"Zhu Lichang, you can come in at night?" Wei Su wanted to make sure.
"It should be possible, right? We have never gone in, and we go around outside during the day. If we don't go that way today, we will go around far."
The director gave a definite answer. If we can get in, we won’t.
"Then can you enter the Prince's Mansion at night?" Wei Su wanted to confirm again.
"You can't, right? What are you going in for? If it's daytime... Hanhan can go in. If there's an emergency, just shout outside. It's not far."
The chief thought for a while and gave another answer: You can't get in at night.
Wei Su seemed to be relieved, as long as there was a place that he couldn't enter, he thought you were all unimpeded in the palace!
When everyone arrives at the place, everything is in order.
Other ministers had arrived early, each with a table. Zhu Yuanzhang and others had not arrived yet, and the place was brightly lit.
They all sit in the north of the bridge and the south of Fengtianmen. The location of Xiaqiu Village is arranged on the bridge, the middle one among the five moat bridges.
Wei Su was also pushed here. He felt a lot of pressure now. There were many people who wanted him to die. It seemed safer to stay with the people in Xiaqiu Village.
Seeing this location, Wei Su now wished he could find someone who knew how to ask clearly, how much power does Xiaqiu Village have?
The bridge in the middle is the widest and cannot be used by others. It can only be used by the emperor when traveling. Xiaqiu Village said he wanted to attend a dinner, so it was arranged here.
"The Holy Lord is here~~~" As soon as they came over, someone shouted.
All the ministers, including those in poor health, knelt down to greet him, and the people from Xiaqiu Village stood and bowed.
"The ceremony is over!" someone shouted again.
Everyone stood up one after another, and the banquet began, with some singing and dancing.
Wei Su sat next to the chief, on his right hand, and to the left of the chief was the village guard.
He is still silent, why is no one impeaching him? They stood and dared to stand.
"Zhu Lichang, Su has something to ask, should I ask it?" Wei Su's own title changed.
Li Chang smiled: "Scholar Wei wants to ask us how to stand? In fact, we want to kneel, but the Holy Emperor and the Crown Prince do not allow it.
We were staying in the village and living happily, but the Holy Spirit called us to stay here for a while.
The Holy Spirit says that calling us here is to express closeness, not to make us kneel.
Therefore, we are required not to kneel, but to bow when we see the Prince and His Majesty. When meeting the Prince every day, three times a day, bowing will be changed to nodding.
Can Bachelor Wei understand this? When the left and right ministers are discussing matters with the Holy Sage, they can't kneel down and kowtow every time they meet, right? "
The head of the village explained Wei Su like this. In fact, he still had something to say. The current status of Xiaqiu Village was achieved through strength and His Majesty's trust.
My contribution to the court and palace of the Ming Dynasty was too great, and the Holy Emperor used this method to repay it, even if I don’t want it, it would be a kindness turned into an enemy!
If one of them doesn't kneel, he can repay a lot of debts, and both parties will be satisfied, otherwise he will have to take the iron scroll of the elixir.
"That's it." Wei Su nodded, but actually he still didn't believe it.
On the other side, Zhu Yuanzhang held a monocular telescope in his hand and looked at the bridge: "Look, look at our grown-up helpers, all of them are in high spirits! Hehehehehe!"
In fact, the distance between the two sides was not too far. There were many glazed lamps and he could see clearly. He had to see clearly.
A group of kings and princesses were there, and the little one was sleeping soundly in the stroller!
The Crown Princess also didn't eat much food at night and had a good sleep. She was very energetic now as she waited for this moment.
Today's main dish is barbecue, and small plates of cold cuts are placed on everyone's table.
The place where the barbecue was being cooked was elsewhere, so that no smoke would reach the princess and hit her.
The prince asked Xiaqiu Village how to do it, and then learned the method, which he thought was good.
The meat is skewered and grilled, and then the person who delivers the meat has a flat knife in his hand to cut the meat downwards, and the person who eats it can stop at any time, or say he doesn't want it anymore.
There are also grilled and soaked seafood, eggplant, garlic, leeks and other dishes.
The fruits are naturally watermelon, cantaloupe, and orange.
With the addition of the drunken crab dish, there will be no problem in terms of eating.
"I thought they didn't want to come, and I felt sorry for it, but I didn't expect that Hanhan wanted to come, so the children came together. Chongba, today is a happy day, no killing."
Empress Ma followed suit and suddenly mentioned the matter of murder. She was worried that Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to kill Yu Shi Wang Zhu and others because they had made a fuss in the first place.
If Wei Su died normally, he would have died, but the master wrote a letter alone to protect him. When the imperial doctors arrived, Wei Su was almost dead.
This kind of ability can make the difference between life and death...
So the master didn't say that he would protect the king, but he obviously thought that they were useless and that the danger would be beneficial to Ming Dynasty.
"Let's not say anything today, you are such a big boy! Does it hurt from the fall? Where is my second son?"
Zhu Yuanzhang promised his sister and turned to ask his two sons. They went to play pulley with the children in Xiaqiu Village and fell down a lot.
"Dad, the baby doesn't hurt. Wear a protective gear. When the baby is born, the baby can play with the Crown Princess." Zhu Biao shook his head and looked at the Crown Princess.
"I don't feel any pain. I've practiced well and taught my younger brothers and sisters how to play." Zhu Ping continued.
He didn't have Princess Qin yet, so he asked Xiaqiu Village to help stir up Huang, and he was very happy.
"Pang'er should learn from Xiaqiu Village and not slack off." Queen Ma said.
"It's the Queen Mother! It won't be worse than in the main hall." Zhu Xi responded obediently.
He now does things during the day and communicates with his companions. When he comes back at night, he has to study for more than an hour, so that he can bring out new knowledge during the communication the next day.
Others looked at Zhu Yuanzhang from time to time, not thinking about eating. Some people also looked at the bridge.
They all know that Wei Su is back, and now they are attending the Lantern Festival banquet. How many things are involved in this?
After everyone was eating, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly looked towards the bridge and said, "Summon the Imperial Minister to come over and talk about the dangers."
"The minister of the Imperial Academy is telling you that Wei Su is near the front of you~~~" the eunuch shouted, passing by.
"Bachelor Wei, His Majesty has summoned you. Hanhan, push Bachelor Wei over." The chief said to Wei Su and asked Hanhan for help.
"Hey! Push, uh-huh!" Zhu Wentian stood up, brought the wheelchair over, and placed it next to Wei Su.
"Thank you Hanhan!" Wei Su sat up, straightened the clothes in front of him, took a deep breath, raised his head, and sat up straight.
Zhu Wentian pushed him forward, smiling innocently at everyone he saw along the way, until he came to Zhu Yuanzhang.
"We were very happy when we saw Hanhan. How is your health?" Zhu Yuanzhang first praised Hanhan and then asked Wei Su.
Wei Su got off the wheelchair and knelt down with a pop: "I thank your Majesty for saving my life!"
"Come up quickly, Prince." Zhu Yuanzhang ordered. Zhu Biao went over to help Wei Su up and then let him sit down.
"We are happy today, but Taipou, do you have any poems?" Zhu Yuanzhang said again.
