Chapter One Hundred and Thirty Seventh Reconsideration
.'It's actually Mr. Sun, a rare visitor. Haha, I couldn't welcome you from far away. Please don't blame Mr. Sun." Wu'an Hou Zheng was over forty years old, tall and charming, but his figure already looked a bit rich.
Standing outside the hall, Neng smiled and cupped his hands in greeting at Sun Xianzong, who was walking towards him.
"How dare you, but the Marquis has not been seen for more than a month, but not only is he still handsome, but he is even more blessed. Haha, there are very few people who can become a first-class official at a young age since the founding of the Ming Dynasty."
Sun Xianzong returned the salute with a smile and looked at this first-class general of the day...with an undisguised look of envy on his face.
Hearing this, Zheng Neng couldn't help but straighten his back subconsciously, and he was quite humble. "Well, actually speaking, Zheng was quite ashamed of receiving this high position for nothing. There are many veterans with outstanding achievements.
Unexpectedly, this burden fell on Zheng’s shoulders.”
"Haha, the Marquis is too modest." Sun Xianzong couldn't help but laugh. He raised his hand and waved behind him, and two strong servants followed carefully carrying a huge wooden box.
"This is..." Zheng Neng couldn't help but be stunned and looked at Sun Xianzong with a puzzled expression.
"Haha, Lord Marquis was promoted. At that time, Xianzong was on errands in other places and could not come to congratulate him. Although his brother accepted the gift, he still felt sorry in his heart. He came to see Lord Marquis today, so naturally he had to make up for it. If Lord Marquis didn't
Just accept these gadgets." Sun Xianzong winked at the two servants.
The leader of Jia Ding Xin put the big box in front of the hall, then opened the lid and the straw covering it, revealing the contents. Zheng Neng couldn't help but gasped when he saw it for the first time.
He was so angry that his eyes froze, like two javelins that were deeply pierced into the soil and could no longer be moved.
A pair of purple-green translucent bottles about one and a half feet tall exude a dazzling brilliance under the sunlight. Circles of light wander around the bottles. The two bottles have round and smooth shapes.
Although Flawless has no other decorations, it only adds to its simple and elegant beauty.
"This, this is really too precious, Mr. Sun, your gift is really..." Zheng Neng swallowed with difficulty. His words were incoherent, and his eyes were full of greed and possession, as if at this moment, this was not
The Marquis, a dignified and distinguished member of the imperial court, is more like a beggar who saw a key of gold fall at his feet.
"This pair of purple and green vases was accidentally purchased by Xianzong. Knowing that the Marquis likes this kind of ornaments, I borrowed flowers to offer to Buddha today." Seeing Sun Neng's expression, Sun Xianzong couldn't help but curled his lips secretly, with a smile on his face.
Still smiling.
Zheng Neng took a deep breath, bowed deeply to Sun Xianzong, and said sincerely: "Goodbye, your kindness can be said to have identified Zheng's lifeline. Haha, if you don't accept it, it seems that Zheng is too pedantic.
, In this way, Zheng is shameless and disrespectful."
He glanced at the two bottles again, and then he realized that Sun Xianzong and he were still standing outside the hall, with the scorching sun on their heads. He couldn't help but said with some surprise: "Oh, you are so busy looking at these things that you actually let this distinguished guest..."
It's disrespectful to stand here."
Zheng Neng hurriedly invited Sun Xianzong into the front hall. After some pleasantries, Zheng Neng looked at the pair of purple and green glazed vases that had been placed in place. He couldn't help but sigh: "Our Ming Dynasty has undergone great changes, and Zheng has also suffered."
I originally thought that my body would be buried in a foreign land, and I would never return to the Central Plains. I was heartbroken. Unexpectedly, with the blessing of the emperor, I finally returned to the Ming Dynasty with Zhupaize, and I am so lucky today.
Come here, thanks to the great blessing of the Emperor."
Hearing the mention of the Supreme Emperor, the smile on Sun Xianzong's face gradually disappeared, replaced by a sad look.
Seeing Sun Xianzong behaving like this, Zheng Neng scratched his forehead with some embarrassment: "Look at Zheng's mouth, haha, I just made Mr. Sun upset."
"Why, the Emperor has returned to the Ming Dynasty. This is already a great blessing. What else can Xianzong have to worry about?" Sun Xianzong laughed, picked up the tea and took a sip: "Speaking of which, Xianzong really has something that he wants to do.
Lord Marquis, please give me advice."
"Haha, don't take it seriously when asking for advice. If Mr. Sun has something to say, just say it clearly. If Zheng can help, he will naturally help you." Zheng Neng said with a smile, staring at Sun Xianzong without blinking.
I was secretly thinking about Sun Xianzong's purpose of coming.
"I heard that the Marquis's sister-in-law is now serving as the commander-in-chief of the Xuanfu, and is in charge of the military power in the important town of Xuanfu in the Ming Dynasty. Now, the emperor is residing in the Xuanfu, so Xianzong came here shamelessly, hoping that the Marquis would know
"Commander Huijiang..." Sun Xianzong said with a smile and stroked his brow.
"Master Sun, please be considerate. How dare you disrespect my sister-in-law, who is such a great emperor?" Zheng Neng promised with a smile. "Besides, Zheng's ability to escape from the thieves' hands is also a blessing from the emperor. No matter what Zheng does,
, how could you dare to disrespect the Supreme Emperor?"
"That's good. By the way, there is one more thing. Xianzong recently heard that the Supreme Emperor was in An Mansion, and angrily beheaded the eunuchs to Pingzhong, scolded the envoys who welcomed the emperor, and refused to return to the master. Xianzong heard this and was quite sorry." Sun Xianzong.
With a look of sadness on his face, the murderous light from the corners of his eyes swept towards Zheng Neng.
When Zheng Neng heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little sad. After a while, he sighed to himself: "I feel ashamed to say that we, nobles and nobles, have received great favor from your majesty, but now we can't stop the emperor from insisting on it. I feel very regretful." When the court was discussing, he felt very sorry for the flattery.
As soon as Zheng Neng and other nobles returned to the south, they were very excited and strongly opposed the specifications of the Supreme Emperor. The problem was that the emperor expressed his consideration in person, but turned his face and regarded their words as farts.
But they could only stare, indignant, but helpless. Now the nobles like Zhang Fu, who was their own heart, died in Tumubao, while most of the other nobles were captured by Wa Ci and then released.
In this way, they have another layer of inexplicable things in the eyes of the emperor and those officials. In short, although the emperor today has many promotions and favors for them, who have returned to the south, but in matters of political affairs
, with almost no intention of asking their nobles for their opinions.
In a word, the originally popular noble class in the Ming Dynasty was being abandoned by those in power after the Tumubao Incident, and was gradually declining. This also made them quite depressed. Just like Zheng Neng, the emperor did not listen until the last time
Since they objected and insisted on receiving the emperor with the lowest standard of treatment, Zheng Neng was so angry that he simply complained of illness in the palace, and his body has not recovered yet...
"Actually, you don't have to feel too guilty. It's not a bad thing for the emperor to do this." After confirming that Zheng Neng showed his true feelings, combined with his previous actions, Sun Xianzong finally confirmed Zheng Neng's intentions and decided to proceed.
test.
"Huh?" Zheng Neng couldn't help but froze, looked at Sun Xianzong up and down, and said with a slight displeasure: "Why did Mr. Sun say this? When the emperor does this, we, the ministers, are still aggrieved for the emperor. You
He is a relative of the Emperor, why are you still saying such sarcastic things?"
"Haha, Lord Marquis, you have misunderstood Xianzong." Sun Xianzong couldn't help laughing, but his eyes fell on the servants in the hall.
"You all should step aside, Zheng Xiong, and stay outside the hall. Don't let any unsightly things disturb me and Mr. Sun from tasting these purple and green bottles." Leader Zheng Nengxin shouted in a deep voice.
After a while, everyone in the hall dispersed, and only a few fierce generals stood outside the hall holding the hilts of swords on their waists.
"The Emperor has given you the kindness of rebirth to Zheng. Zheng is not the kind of bastard who never repays his kindness. Master Cho, please tell me clearly." After all, he is a veteran on the battlefield. Once Zheng Neng puts away his greedy look just now,
The treacherous face and eyes were all shining, and the aura of a warrior on the battlefield suddenly overflowed.
Sun Xianzong couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "It's hard work for today's emperor to treat the nobles with a cold face, but it is really a great blessing that the emperor can finally accept the hearts of these nobles."
In the morning and the court meeting, Zhu Qizhen sat firmly on the dragon chair, looking coldly at the envoy who was greeting the Supreme Emperor. During the meeting, Li Shi from the Ministry of Rites knelt down in the hall, choking and accusing them and his party of announcing there.
Everything the government suffered.
None of the civil and military officials and Zhu Qiyu, who had already learned the truth of the matter from various divine channels, showed any shocked expressions on their faces. They all seemed to be listening to a story that was as plain as boiled water.
"Your Majesty, let me make the decision for you." At the end of the sentence, it is not an exaggeration to describe Li Shi's performance at this moment with tears. But after howling for a long time, he did not hear anyone stand up to speak for him, and no one just said that.
Expressing opinions on things made Li Shi feel like a clown performing in the hall.
"All of you who love me must have heard what Li Qing said." Zhu Qiyu waited for Li Shi to finish speaking before he spoke. "Although the attendants around Lian made mistakes, they did not lead to death. However, the emperor came from the north.
Since the hunt, I have suffered a lot, and my character has changed drastically. I feel the same pain, so I won’t mention it anymore.”
"Your Majesty is a wise man." Wang Wen stepped forward first and began to praise him. "If you can put yourself in the emperor's shoes and think about the emperor like this, you are truly a benevolent king."
More than a dozen ministers also rushed out and expressed their admiration for Zhu Qiyu, the benevolent emperor of the Ming Dynasty, whose waves were as endless as the water of the Yellow River.
The most disgusting compliments and flattering words kept coming, making those ministers who knew what the world was like roll their eyes with cold expressions one by one.
Zhu Qiyu, whose cheeks were a little hot after being praised by these people, cleared his throat and signaled all the flatterers to stop for now. After all the ministers had returned to their duties, Zhu Qiyu said: "My dear family members. Today, we will meet with you.
Wait, let’s discuss the matter of welcoming the emperor’s sage back to the capital. What do you think?”
