"Your Majesty, you are upset."
After Dao Yan finished reciting the sutra, he looked at the middle-aged man in front of him with a compassionate smile.
Zhu Di smiled bitterly and cupped his hands towards Dao Yan: "Mr. Yao, I encountered something. I don't know whether it is a good thing or a bad thing."
"Talking as we walk."
Dao Yan bowed and motioned for Zhu Di to follow him.
Zhu Di was not wary at all at this moment and followed Dao Yan all the way to the Zen room.
Along the way, Zhu Di also briefly recounted today's conversation with Chen Kan, including how he taught Zhu Zhanji a lesson and how he finally interrogated Chen Kan in the main hall.
Dao Yan, on the other hand, always had a calm expression, as if the headache Zhu Di mentioned could not cause him any trouble.
Daoyan's Zen room is very simple. There is only a bamboo bed and a few volumes of scriptures in the room.
Dao Yan poured a glass of water for Zhu Di, and then said with a faint smile: "Your Majesty has come at the right time. It is the time when the monks of Tianjie Temple are eating their meal. Your Majesty, wait a moment while the poor monk goes to get a portion for you."
After Dao Yan finished speaking, he threw Zhu Di, the ninety-five supreme master, into the Zen room.
Zhu Di didn't take it seriously, he just took a small sip of the boiled water in the cup.
Dao Yan left and came back soon, but when he came back, he had two more alms bowls in his hand.
"Your Majesty, please use it."
In the world, only Dao Yan dared to treat Zhu Di so casually, and Zhu Di would not have any objections.
Zhu Di took an alms bowl from Dao Yan and began to eat slowly.
Zhu Di is a person who has lived a hard life. On the frontier battlefield, it is very common to be unable to eat a bite of hot food for several days. Therefore, Zhu Di does not have any emperor's disease and can eat simple meals and delicacies.
Seeing that Daoyan still has not commented on the things he said until now, Zhu Di is not anxious.
He knew that his old friend would definitely give him a satisfactory answer.
Dao Yan doesn't eat much, so there is very little food in his alms bowl.
He had finished eating, but Zhu Di was still eating.
Seeing this, Zhu Di couldn't help but speed up his meal.
"Your Majesty, don't be so impatient. Eat slowly."
Dao Yan opened his mouth to comfort him, but Zhu Di was unmoved.
Dao Yan did not persuade him any more.
Seeing that he had finished eating the alms bowl and found Su Zhai in it, Daoyan stood up and sent the alms bowl back to the kitchen.
Then he returned to the Zen room, took out the tea leaves from the clay pot on the seat, and began to slowly boil water to make tea.
"Is your Majesty's visit today just about Chen Xiaoyou?"
Daoyan spoke.
But his expression remained unchanged.
Zhu Di couldn't help but feel a little absent-minded when he thought of the words he talked with Chen Kan.
It took a moment to realize that Dao Yan had already spoken.
He hurriedly responded: "Yes, I came here just to ask you, sir, are there really people in the world who know this from birth?"
"Yes, the ancient sage, Master Confucius, was unique in teaching and educating people; the ancient Yi Ya was unique in the kitchen; Han Xin, the military immortal, was unrivaled in the way of leading troops; and the Taizu of our dynasty, Liu Ji, Zhongshan King Xu Da..."
Dao Yan spit out a series of names, which made Zhu Di feel dizzy.
I couldn't help but retort: "Sir, except for the saints and the great ancestors of my dynasty, it seems a bit far-fetched to say that these people know it from birth, right?"
Dao Yan smiled calmly and did not argue with Zhu Di. He asked, "Does Your Majesty think the achievements of these people are glorious?"
Zhu Di said thoughtfully: "Of course it is a glorious achievement that will last forever."
Dao Yan nodded: "Then what kind of teacher does Your Majesty think can teach them?"
"this......"
Zhu Di was stunned and suddenly understood what Dao Yan meant.
Seeing that Zhu Di didn't answer, Dao Yan said calmly: "Your Majesty may be able to figure out who the teacher of any of them is?"
"Have no idea."
Zhu Di responded honestly and asked, "What do you mean, sir?"
"hehe!"
Dao Yan chuckled lightly and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is the king, and as a king, as long as you learn to put the right people in the right places, you will naturally achieve great achievements. If you dig into the root of everything, you will only ignore the root and chase the last."
"Sir, what do you mean, don't you want to investigate the origin of that little bastard?"
Dao Yan raised his head and asked: "Chen Kan, the son of Puding Hou and a disciple of Fang Xiaoru, has a clean origin. May I ask how your majesty will pursue him?"
"This, I..."
Dao Yan's words instantly rendered Zhu Di speechless.
Yes, how to pursue it?
Chen Kan's origins are pure and clear. Jinyiwei has investigated eight generations of Chen Kan's ancestors.
Should Chen Kan's brain be cut open to see how his brain is structured?
Seeing the tangled expression on Zhu Di's face, Dao Yan continued: "Buddhism talks about cause and effect. Your Majesty, your desire to ban Bao Chao is the cause, Chen Kan's strategy of offering Bao Chao to you is the result, and the problem is not Chen Kan. But it’s on you, Your Majesty.”
"On my body?"
Zhu Di seemed to have some realization.
Dao Yan smiled and said, "Isn't it just your Majesty?"
"Please sir, teach me."
Zhu Di felt like he had caught something, but it seemed like he had caught nothing.
He couldn't help but look at Dao Yan with burning eyes.
Sure enough, his old friend would never let him down.
Dao Yan smiled and said: "Your Majesty should understand that there is a direct correlation between cause and effect. If you had not mentioned the ban on treasure banknotes in front of Chen Kan, Chen Kan would not have offered you such desperate measures. On the other hand, , even if there is no Chen Kan to advise you, when you decide to ban Baochao, there will be Wang Kan, Li Kan, or even Zhu Kan to offer you the most suitable strategy."
Zhu Di nodded and said in a deep voice: "So, the problem actually lies with me, right?"
"The poor monk didn't say that."
Seeing Dao Yan shake his head, Zhu Di's face suddenly showed a look of confusion.
When Dao Yan saw this, he smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you are in trouble."
Zhu Di asked: "Sir, what is the meaning of this statement?"
Dao Yan shook his head, but stopped talking.
"Sir, I..."
Dao Yan stretched out his hand to stop Zhu Di's next words and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you have been delayed here by the poor monk for long enough. Please come back."
When Zhu Di heard this, he couldn't help but frown.
That's Dao Yan. If anyone else dared to chase him away like this, he would have gone crazy.
Come in agitated mood and leave in a confused mood.
Until he returned to the palace, Zhu Di was still thinking about the so-called cause and effect in Dao Yan's words.
Dao Yan didn't tell him anything pretentious about Goldman Sachs, and he didn't mean to let him understand it.
But it was just these few words whose meanings were immediately obvious to Zhu Di that made Zhu Di puzzled.
"His Majesty!"
Arriving at the gate of Kunning Palace, Queen Xu woke Zhu Di out of his thoughts.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? When you get here, you still look absent-minded. Why are you so angry with your eldest grandson today?"
Zhu Di shook his head and asked, "Where is this little bastard? Where did he go?"
Empress Xu covered her mouth and smiled: "Of course I'm afraid of being taught a lesson by you, so I don't know where to hide now."
"snort."
Zhu Di snorted coldly and was about to have a fit.
Empress Xu grabbed her hand and said, "Why are you so angry with your grandson? No matter what kind of trouble he gets into, he is still your grandson. How can you bear to deal with such a heavy hand?" ?”
"Um?"
"Queen, what did you say?"
Zhu Di was stunned for a moment, as if the fog in his heart was suddenly lifted away.
Queen Xu looked at Zhu Di inexplicably, wondering why he was so crazy.
But he still repeated: "I said, no matter what kind of trouble he gets into, he is still your grandson..."
"That's it, that's it."
Zhu Di suddenly became enlightened.
Queen Xu's words made him understand why Daoyan said he was obsessed with appearance.
"What's the matter, Your Majesty?"
Queen Xu was a little confused. He found that something was not right about His Majesty's mental state today.
Zhu Di didn't answer, just smiled.
"It's nothing, I just suddenly figured out something."
After speaking, Zhu Di's interest suddenly became high, and he took Queen Xu's hand and strode towards the palace.
He suddenly understood the meaning of Dao Yan's words. No matter how vicious Chen Kan's strategy was, it was only for the good of Ming Dynasty.
As long as it's for Daming's good, then why bother with how he came up with it.
As the saying goes, my honey is his arsenic.
It is not important where Chen Kan got his unpredictable skills. What is important is what Chen Kan uses this skill for.
He is an emperor, and what he wants to do is to discover talents and use them, rather than asking why talents are talents.
That is abandoning the basics and chasing the last.
After thinking through the connection, Zhu Di felt refreshed.
Chen Kan's actions are likely to plunge surrounding countries into chaos. So what does it matter? The people of Ming Dynasty benefited from it.
He is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and Chen Kan is the Chen Kan of the Ming Dynasty. This is enough.
...
Jinghaihou Mansion, the first thing Chen Kan did when he returned home was to take stock of his family's property.
Zhu Di's performance today gave him a deep understanding of the meaning of the saying "Being with the king is like being with the tiger."
Although he is still far behind from being a master of martial arts, Chen Kan still stubbornly believes that he needs to arrange an escape route for himself in advance.
The most important part of arranging a retreat is money.
Only with money can there be people. With people, Chen Kan can go overseas and continue to live the life of a master.
Chen Kan didn't want to be a pioneer in reclaiming wasteland, he just wanted extreme luxury.
As soon as he got into the warehouse, Chen Kan was dumbfounded.
"Where's my money?"
Chen Kan's screams resounded throughout the Jinghaihou Mansion, attracting all the servants in the manor.
Then, they found Mr. Hou in front of the warehouse, his face so gloomy that he looked like he was about to drip.
Yuncheng cautiously approached Chen Kan and asked, "Master Hou, what's wrong?"
Chen Kan looked at Yuncheng with an unkind expression: "Explain to me, where did the money in the warehouse go?"
In Jinghaihou Mansion, Chen Kan and Zhu Yuelan each have one key to the warehouse, and the remaining one is shared by the housekeeper Yuncheng and the accountant Wang Fugui.
Now that the money is gone, there is only one explanation...
