After looking at Wei Zhongxian carefully, Wang Xuan patted him on the shoulder and said: "From now on, you don't have to think about serving the emperor all day long. You can go to study and read and choose someone to teach you. Anyway, the Chief of Ceremonies has nothing to do now.
If you study more, I am very optimistic about you!"
As he spoke, Wang Xuan reached out and brushed his hair. Wei Zhongxian bent down and lowered his head as if instinctively, as if he felt very comfortable being touched.
Seeing Wei Zhongxian being so polite, Wang Xuan couldn't help laughing.
"Okay, Your Majesty, let's go, I'll take you to see the reality of this world." Wang Xuan said and strode out.
Zhu Youxiao frowned and followed up. His sensitive heart did not find any malice or murderous intent in Wang Xuan. His intuition told him that Wang Xuan was not planning to do anything bad to him. Of course, at present,
In this situation, if you really want to move him, it's just a matter of looks. Some people who want to climb up are willing to take risks and do some treacherous things, even if they have experts protecting them, it's useless.
A group of eunuchs and maids followed up, even in the palace, as if the emperor was out and about.
Wang Xuan waved his hand irritably, "Let's all disperse. Why are so many people following us?"
Only the two old eunuchs and Wei Zhongxian who were protecting them were left, and the group of five people arrived at the imperial dining room.
The imperial dining room is now in a state of chaos. It is said that a gentleman is far away from the kitchen. No emperor in the past dynasties has ever been to the imperial dining room.
Wang Xuan stretched out his hand and patted the emperor's shoulder. The Sunflower Qi of the two old eunuchs began to circulate. Wang Xuan turned his head and glared at them. The Nine Sun Magic Qi of the Nine Yang Divine Art began to circulate, and the internal energy surged in the meridians like a sea tide.
, the aura emitted firmly suppressed the two of them, and the murderous aura was like a turbulent sea of blood, making the two old eunuchs feel as if they had fallen into an ice cave. Suddenly, the two old eunuchs calmed down.
Thanks to Wang Xuan's good control, the emperor standing next to him only felt a little tight in the chest and did not suffer much impact.
It wasn't that the two old eunuchs who were responsible for protecting the emperor were cowarded, but that the strength shown by Wang Xuan made them realize that if Wang Xuan wanted to kill the emperor, they would not even have time to react.
"Emperor, let me tell you, if I hadn't taken you with me today, you wouldn't even have had the chance to come to the imperial dining room. Even if you had this intention, these guys would have warned you not to go there, hehe." Wang Xuan said.
He pointed back at the three eunuchs behind him.
Zhu Youxiao looked back at the three eunuchs who lowered their heads slightly, frowned and looked at Wang Xuan and said, "Why can't you let me go to the imperial dining room?"
"Of course, we can't let the emperor find out that the food he eats is actually very delicious, and he won't change the pattern for hundreds of years!"
Looking at the cooks who were kneeling on the ground, Wang Xuan did not embarrass them. He waved to let everyone get up. He just lightly ordered: "Cook a few dishes and the emperor and I will eat them together. Remember, do it with your true skills. If you let
I am satisfied, and your benefits are indispensable."
A group of imperial chefs looked at each other and hesitated for a moment.
"Hmm~!!" Wang Xuan made an obviously displeased voice from his nasal cavity, which immediately frightened a group of imperial chefs to tremble. The master in front of them was the one who went on a killing spree in the Hall of Supreme Harmony at the slightest disagreement!
So rules and so on, forget it, aren’t they just for these people to break!
There are hundreds of cooks in the imperial dining room. After all, there are many people in the palace. The empress alone is more than a hundred. Emperor Wanli and Taichang died not long ago, and those wives are still alive. Therefore, it is really difficult for more than a hundred cooks to serve them.
not much.
The eight leading people were the first to stand up. Since they could not escape, they had to show off, so these eight people also risked their lives. Under the gaze of Wang Xuan and the emperor, they were dazzled by seven or eight different kitchen knives and various ingredients in their hands.
, it didn’t take long for eight dishes that were delicious, delicious, and delicious to be served.
Wang Xuan waved his hand to drive away the waiter and signaled the emperor to do it himself. In fact, Zhu Youxiao also felt it at this moment. The taste alone was much better than what he had eaten before. He raised his hand and picked up each one with chopsticks.
Taste it.
Damn, it smells so good!
But then his face fell down, what the hell was he eating for more than ten years?
Wang Xuan didn't care about the emperor and just ate the rice and vegetables. After six bowls of rice and eight dishes, Zhu Youxiao was only half full.
Putting down his chopsticks and looking at Zhu Youxiao's doubtful eyes, Wang Xuan said: "This is the reality of the world. The emperor's so-called imperial meal is simply a scam. You can't even have a delicious meal, so what are you talking about?"
To tell the truth, you know how to understand this country.”
"Bringing you here to eat is not just to eat, but to tell you that in fact, the emperor is just a mascot kept in captivity, a mascot who doesn't know anything. To be honest, it's quite pitiful!"
Wang Xuan's words stunned Zhu Youxiao, and his whole head was dizzy. The education he had received had always told him that the emperor was the master of this country, and everyone in the country served the emperor and was his son.
People, the vastness of the world is not the king's land, and the shores of the land are not the king's ministers.
He himself thought so too, but now, Wang Xuan tore it all apart with blood in front of him, leaving the young man at a loss. He didn't even know what expression to look at Wang Xuan.
"In all dynasties, the country was most prosperous during the two or three generations of the founding emperor, and the later it became, the more it became useless. Do you know why?" Wang Xuan asked Zhu Youxiao with a smile.
"Corruption is growing, the country is full of insects, land is being annexed, and foreign invasions are taking place." Zhu Youxiao was silent for a while and spoke bit by bit.
"That's right!" Wang Xuan patted him on the shoulder, "You are a dull boy, you understand everything in your heart!"
Historically, Tianqi did quite well. Although he was given the title of Carpenter Emperor by later generations, during his reign, he reused Wei Zhongxian to fight against the Donglin Party, which somewhat restored the decline of the Ming Dynasty.
This chapter is not over, please click the next page to continue reading! "You said these things are right, but they are not entirely right, including corruption. These things are inevitable. It is the same in any dynasty, and the biggest problem lies with the rulers.
On the body, these emperors of the Ming Dynasty have never left the palace in their lives. What you see and know is what these ministers want you to see and know. A group of people who don’t even have their own thoughts, even this
How can someone who has never seen the real world rule this country well? It’s like asking someone who has never cooked before to cook. It’s weird if he can eat.”
Zhu Youxiao listened with a confused look on his face. The education he received since he was a child was indeed top-notch. He was taught by great scholars from all walks of life. He had a lot of brains but little knowledge. After listening for a long time, he didn't understand, but he understood that it made sense.
"Starting tomorrow, we will carry out reforms in the palace and reduce the number of palace maids and eunuchs in large numbers."
Wang Xuan's sudden change of topic made Zhu Youxiao very uncomfortable, and his mind began to quickly turn to this side again, "Why? If there is no one in the palace to use it, then where is the majesty of the royal family."
He became angry when this was mentioned. During this period, Wang Xuan was the most disrespectful to the royal family, causing the royal family to lose its majesty.
Of course, he didn't dare to say this, and besides, Wang Xuan had no face for anyone...
In front of Wang Xuan, Zhu Youxiao's little city was like a grandson, "I feel like I've made you lose face!"
"You don't have to deny it." Wang Xuan waved his hand directly, "I've already given you a lot of face. You know, those who I don't like have either gone to work in hell or are kneeling at the gate of Beijing. You also
Don’t be afraid that future history books will blind you, everyone loses face, but no one loses face, understand!”
"Besides, I have given you enough face. Over the years, you are still the first person that I have taken the initiative to train. Why do you think your life has been so smooth in the past few years?"
Zhu Youxiao's eyes widened suddenly, and he suddenly thought of a certain woman who had been very good to him in the past two years, his crush, Zui Hongchen.
"I arranged for Zui Hongchen to live with your father a few years ago. One of the purposes was to take care of you. Otherwise, the man named Li would still be able to make things easier for you in the next two years!"
These words not only shocked Zhu Youxiao, but also made a group of people next to him hear it clearly. They all turned pale with fright. If the last bit of reason had not told them not to urinate, otherwise the tools for committing crimes would not be safe, I am afraid some guys would have become incontinent.
Wang Xuan said too many secrets without any scruples, which really scared them.
"You, you, you..." Zhu Youxiao's expression kept changing. For a moment, he didn't know whether to thank Wang Xuan or hate Wang Xuan.
Wang Xuan suddenly thought of something, he laughed, waved his hand and said: "Go, go, all of you, get out, you won't be able to listen to me anymore."
A group of people fled as fast as they could as if they had received an amnesty. Even Wei Zhongxian and the two old eunuchs also hurriedly left. This made Wang Xuan, who was so unscrupulous, feel that something should be kept secret... They didn't want to go to the city gate.
Go on your knees.
Wang Xuan's practice of kneeling at the gate of the city really shocked a group of people who were not afraid of death. If in the past, you could still seek fame after death, many old thieves who had only been alive for a few days still wanted to make a splash. Now?
…
Think about the newspaper that published all over the country. It clearly listed all the black materials about Fang Congzhe and others' lives. They even didn't let go of some of the bad things that happened to the family over the years, including the blame for the gradual decline of the Ming Dynasty over the years.
On these party members.
Anyway, these great scholars who were famous all over the world now can smell for thirty miles at the top, which really scares a lot of people.
Seeing that everyone had left, Wang Xuan put his arms around Zhu Youxiao's shoulders, tilted his head, his eyes were a bit excited, his brows jumped up and down, and he let out a weird smile, "Do you really like to get drunk?"
Hongchen, ah, why don’t you just follow Li Zhi’s example and feng Wu Meiniang, and just bring Zui Hongchen into your harem!”
Crack, crackle...
Zhu Youxiao:∑(っ°Д°;)っ
Wang Xuan's words made him shake his hands violently in fright, knocking the dishes on the table to the floor.
