So, I heard Emperor Chongzhen say to the side hall: "Ana, please come in for a moment!"
"..." Zhang Mingwei and Zhu Cixiang were both speechless when they heard this. They didn't know what Emperor Chongzhen was going to do.
The people in the side hall seemed to be stunned for a while, and then they agreed after a while.
After a while, I saw Zhu Ainao coming over neatly dressed, but she always lowered her head, vaguely visible, and her neck was red.
This girl is shy! Zhang Mingwei couldn't help but laugh when he saw it. Although everyone on his side was in bed, they were still fully dressed. If I go shirtless in the future, he is my maid, I wonder what will happen?
He was thinking wildly here, but he heard Emperor Chongzhen tell his children with a very serious expression: "Sir's origin will be rotten in the stomach from now on. It is only limited to the three of us, plus Wang Chengen. Do you understand?"
If everyone knew that Zhang Mingwei came from later generations, there would be chaos. Emperor Chongzhen didn't want that!
Hearing this, Zhu Cihong and Zhu Yuyao's expressions became serious and they nodded seriously. Among them, Zhu Cixiang asked again: "Where is the queen mother?"
"I said that only the four of us know. Don't you understand?" Emperor Chongzhen became a little angry when he heard this, and his voice became a little stern.
Zhu Cixiang seemed to shrink his head after being scolded, but he was still a little hesitant. Finally, he mustered up the courage to say: "But...but sir, he is so strange. He talks, dresses, and even has short hair. Someone will definitely be suspicious!"
Hearing his words, Emperor Chongzhen glanced at Zhang Mingwei's head, then turned back, looked at his children and said seriously: "No matter, if they want to doubt, just leave it alone."
When Zhang Mingwei heard this, he also jumped in and said: "If I hadn't traveled through time to be in front of His Majesty, and if I hadn't had the images on my cell phone to prove it, no one would have guessed that such an unbelievable thing would happen."
When he said this, he thought that he would never go back, so he sighed softly: "Even I can't believe it, that such an unbelievable thing happened to me. I can never go back all of a sudden. I went to a familiar environment and said goodbye to my parents, relatives and friends forever!"
Hearing what he said was a bit sad, Zhu Nuao couldn't help but raise her head and look at him, with a trace of sympathy on her face and she forgot her shyness.
Emperor Chongzhen saw that he was not in a high mood, so he quickly comforted him and said: "Sir, you... traveled through time to be in front of me. This must be God's arrangement. Don't worry, sir, I and my family will be your family from now on?" "
Not knowing whether it was intentional or not, he suddenly revealed some of his thoughts, which made Zhu Yuyao come back to her senses, immediately blushed again, and lowered her head.
Zhu Cixiang grinned stupidly, but suddenly, he thought of a situation, his face suddenly changed, and he said quickly: "First... sir, since you come from later generations, if you revive the Ming Dynasty and change history, then... then Will you disappear?"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help being dumbfounded. Yes, what if history is changed and Zhang Mingwei suddenly disappears?
Zhang Mingwei himself heard it, but it didn't matter. He replied to Zhu Cixiang: "It doesn't matter. There is a scientific theory in later generations called parallel space. It says that if history changes, it will be like a fork in the road, and it will go to another fork. Going there will not affect the original path. In other words, it is possible that I will exist in multiple spaces. Of course, this is just a theory. With the technological level of my time, I cannot prove it."
After a pause, he smiled again and said: "Look, if I suddenly disappear one day, it means that historical changes still affect me. This theory of parallel space is wrong. If I didn't disappear , that means the theory of parallel space should be correct."
Although he was joking, Emperor Chongzhen and his children could not laugh. Because there are ten thousand of them who don’t want Zhang Mingwei to disappear. But they had no other choice but to wait and see. At most, they prayed in their hearts that the parallel space theory was correct.
After a moment of silence, Zhu Yuluo raised her head, looked at Zhang Mingwei, and asked with red eyes: "Sir, if you...if you disappear, wouldn't that mean...that you are dead?"
Emperor Chongzhen was shocked when he heard this, but if Zhang Mingwei disappeared, wouldn't it mean he was dead? In this case, is he still willing to help him change the Ming Dynasty and change history?
Thinking this, he immediately stared at Zhang Mingwei, wanting to hear what he had to say.
I saw that Zhang Mingwei was not silent, or even thinking about it. He just smiled slightly and said: "Death is nothing to be afraid of. Everyone will die, right? Since I have encountered something like time travel that only exists in legends, I have the ability to change history. Under such circumstances, instead of hiding in the mountains and living a lifetime, it is better to live a vigorous life, even if it is shorter, it is still worth it!"
What he said was really not a matter of face, but what he really meant.
Emperor Chongzhen always looked at him and felt his sincerity and passion. He couldn't help but clapped his hands and gave a high-five: "Sir, you are worthy of being a gentleman. As far as I am concerned, you are already embodying the principles of Confucius and Mencius!"
His profound knowledge and outlook on life of sacrificing one's life for righteousness really impressed him.
Zhu Cixiang and Zhu Yuluo also had their eyes flashing, looking at him with reverence. This kind of gaze was something I had never seen before.
The way Zhang Mingwei looked at them made him feel a little embarrassed. Accidentally, it coincides with the way of the sages. This is really not intentional. He believes that most people in future generations will probably make the same choice as him when they encounter his situation.
At this time, Emperor Chongzhen sighed with emotion and was about to say more. Suddenly, he heard Princess Kunxing shouting in surprise: "It's about to dawn!"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen turned his head and looked out the window. Sure enough, vaguely, it seemed that the night had passed and it was time for the dawn to emerge!
"How come it's so fast?" Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help but sigh. It felt like not long time had passed, and there were still many things to ask Sir. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, we had been chatting all night long!
Zhang Mingwei yawned and said with a smile: "It's true, it will be dawn in the blink of an eye!"
Emperor Chongzhen heard this, looked at him, and couldn't help but said apologetically: "I took my husband to talk all night long, it's really just one night, it really delayed my husband's rest!"
"..." Zhang Mingwei was speechless after hearing this. It seems like this shouldn't come from the emperor's mouth, right?
Although he was thinking this in his mind, he was actually quite contented, so he replied with a smile: "I'm young, it's okay! Your Majesty should take care of yourself!"
After hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen smiled and was about to speak when he heard a voice coming from outside the palace: "Your servant Wang Cheng'en is back to reply!"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Chongzhen turned to look outside the palace and said, "Come in!"
After a while, Wang Chengen quickly walked in, reached the bed and presented a memorial in his hand to Emperor Chongzhen: "Master, the interrogation of Wang Dehua has already produced preliminary results. His account books for the past years are all in Inside, the inventory of the palace's belongings has basically been completed, and I will go back to the palace to inventory the belongings outside the palace."
In just one night, Wang Chengen achieved this. It must be said that this efficiency is indeed very high.
However, Emperor Chongzhen just said "hmm" and took the memorial and read it. Needless to say, this look put him in a bad mood.
But this time, he wasn't as angry as last time. He just turned over it silently with a sullen face.
During this period, no one spoke, waiting for him to finish reading the memorial.
After a while, Emperor Chongzhen suddenly raised his head, looked at Zhang Mingwei and said, "This house in Mingzhaofang, Chang'an Street, should be a place for you to stay!"
Wang Chengen, who was standing next to him, was shocked when he heard this, and then became very envious.
Of course he knew that the residence Emperor Chongzhen was referring to was Wang Dehua's main resting place outside the palace. Not only does it occupy an extremely large area, but it is also close to the Forbidden City. It is one of the most expensive houses in the capital. The most important thing is that a house in this location is still such a big house. It is expensive but not marketable. Even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it.
While he was thinking, Emperor Chongzhen turned his head again and said to him: "Don't touch the things inside, leave them all for your use."
"My slave obeys the order!" Wang Cheng'en heard this and quickly agreed.
By this time, he had recovered from his surprise. As a gentleman, it is not surprising that the emperor would reward you with such a mansion.
However, he didn't know that Zhang Mingwei himself was stupid.
He saw Wang Chengen's surprise and envy just now. He probably knows where this house is. As a time traveler, I immediately thought of what this house would be worth if it were in later generations!
Tsk tsk, it seems that the benefits of time travel are indeed good. If it hadn't been for time travel, it would have been impossible to own such a house even to death, right?
While he was thinking this, he heard Emperor Chongzhen explain again: "These grain fields are also given to you, Sir. In this way, it is more or less like having a family."
Having a house, land, and an unofficial wife, is this the benefit of a time-travel start? After hearing this, Zhang Mingwei couldn't help but wonder, if future generations knew about this time-travel benefit, would they be extremely envious?
