Chapter 29 Lao Zhu returns to Kaiping County and opens a fried chicken branch "Why don't you go with us?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was a little confused, "Don't you want to see your daughter and son-in-law?"
"If I miss my daughter and son-in-law, I will go by myself. If I go with you, I will only see you harming my daughter and son-in-law and disturbing their lives." Empress Ma said calmly.
"Forehead"
Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang was a little angry, "If you don't want to go, we won't go. Let's go by ourselves!"
After saying that, Zhu Yuanzhang left angrily.
"Chongpachi, you don't want to eat anymore!"
"I'm so angry that I'm full, what else can I eat?" Zhu Yuanzhang walked out of the palace angrily.
I thought Queen Ma would keep him.
result.
"It doesn't matter if you don't eat, I can still save money." Queen Ma muttered.
Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang almost stumbled, almost fell, and then left in a hurry.
After leaving Kunning Palace, Zhu Yuanzhang returned to the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
The more I think about it, the angrier I get, and the more I think about it, the more depressed I get.
"Wang Zhong."
"The minister is here."
"Go and call me the prince."
"Yes!"
Wang Zhong left in a hurry.
As a result, after a while, Wang Zhong came back alone.
"Back to Your Majesty, according to the people in the East Palace, the prince is preparing to study in seclusion during this period. The instructions for your request have been sent to your dragon case, so you can't come to see him."
"Study in seclusion?"
Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment, and then he rummaged through a pile of memorials on the Long Case, and sure enough he saw the memorial written by Zhu Biao.
"Alright, alright."
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, "None of you will accompany us to Kaiping County, so we will go to Peiping first to call Shangdi'er and then go to Kaiping County."
"Wang Zhong, you will send a message to the Zhongshu Province later, saying that we are going outside to escape the summer heat, and all matters in the court will be handed over to Prime Minister Hu Weiyong!"
"Yes."
"Also, prepare a convoy. Let's set off tonight."
"Your Majesty, are you leaving tonight? Are you too anxious? Are you not going to let the courtiers see you off?"
"Why bother? If you are asked to go, just go, why worry about it!" Zhu Yuanzhang glared.
Wang Zhong nodded, "I obey your order."
at night.
A motorcade quietly set off from Nanjing.
After more than half a month, we arrived at Prince Yan's Mansion in Peking.
"What? You said that the fourth child also studied in seclusion?"
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting in the carriage, was stunned for a moment, thinking what was going on?The big ones and the little ones seemed to have agreed upon it, and they all studied in seclusion. Are all the children of our old Zhu family so easy to learn? Since Zhu Yuanzhang was in a hurry to go to Kaiping County, he did not have time to confirm whether Zhu Di was really studying in seclusion, so he immediately set off from Peking to Kaiping County.
This time, Zhu Yuanzhang was familiar with the road. When he arrived at the border gate of Kaiping County, he got off the bus without anyone calling him.
"Come on, pour us three big bowls!"
The two women in national costumes recognized Zhu Yuanzhang at a glance.
"Uncle, I'm sorry, we only serve wine here to guests who come to Kaiping County for the first time. You are already here for the second time, so if you want to drink, go and buy it yourself!"
The welcoming woman rolled her eyes directly at Zhu Yuanzhang.
Forehead. Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned. There was such a rule. Last time, he wanted to buy a lot of "Maotai" and go back to Nanjing. But when he went to buy it, he realized that this "Maotai" was not just something he wanted to buy. Yes, a lottery was required. In the end, he could only buy a few bottles from the second-hand dealer at several times the price. He had finished drinking them long ago. At this moment, he was already addicted to alcohol. He originally thought that he could satisfy his craving when he got here, but it turned out to be in vain.
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes shone when he looked at the two reception women in front of him, who had no strength to tie the chicken, and the bottle of "Maotai" they were holding in their hands.
"It means that as long as it's your first time in Kaiping County, you can drink, right?" "Yes." The welcoming woman nodded, looking at Zhu Yuanzhang with a smile on his face, feeling a little scared inexplicably, and backed away repeatedly.
"Wang Zhong, come here!"
"Your Majesty!"
Wang Zhong almost shouted wrongly.
"Do you recognize him?"
"I don't know." The welcoming woman shook her head.
"Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and pour the wine!" Zhu Yuanzhang said excitedly.
The two welcoming women looked at each other and didn't think there was anything wrong. One took a bowl and the other poured wine.
"Please enjoy a glass of wine, welcome to Kaiping County!"
"Thank you!"
This was the first time Wang Zhong encountered this kind of welcome. He smiled and was about to pick up the drink.
Cough Zhu Yuanzhang coughed twice at an inappropriate time.
Wang Zhong reacted immediately, "Master, I haven't been feeling well these past two days. Please help me taste it."
"In that case, let's just do it."
As a result, Zhu Yuanzhang took a drink from the wine bowl while the two welcoming women were in a daze.
"Cool!"
"strong enough!"
Zhu Yuanzhang said cheerfully.
"Next!"
"Comfortable!"
"Next!"
"comfortable!"
"One more bowl! Wait~~~"
In the end, Zhu Yuanzhang drank a whole caravan of wine by himself, climbed into the carriage in a daze, and came all the way to Kaiping County.
When Zhu Yuanzhang woke up the next day.
He was already lying in the emperor's suite where he stayed last time.
“I haven’t had such a good drink in a long time!”
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed: "And there is such a comfortable bed."
Although the main reason why he came to Kaiping County again was to find Ouyang Lun to buy goods, and to see if Ouyang Lun had any other corruption and perversion of the law, subconsciously he missed the fine wine, soft beds, peace and relaxation of Kaiping County! These are things that Zhu Yuanzhang could not have in the Nanjing Palace.
In the Nanjing Imperial Palace, he is the Supreme Emperor, the destined emperor, and the supreme emperor. Everyone respects him. But in Kaiping County, he is just a customer, a caravan owner, a farmer, a merchant, and a supplier of food and clothing. Carefree, carefree, truly living the life he dreamed of as a child.
Zhu Yuanzhang touched the soft mattress and soft and fluffy pillows with a look of enjoyment on his face.
At this moment, Mao Xiang walked in.
"Your Majesty, Mao Xiang, pays homage to your Majesty. Long live my emperor!"
Seeing Mao Xiang, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately became serious. He instantly regained his majesty as an emperor and waved his hand, "Get up."
"Yes!"
Mao Xiang stood up.
"Tell me, what did you find out during your time in Kaiping County!"
"Your Majesty, I can say that I have gained a lot in the past few months!" Mao Xiang said with excitement, "Before talking about the gains, I would like to report on the construction of Jin Yiwei!"
"Let's talk." Zhu Yuanzhang was also very concerned about Jin Yiwei. After all, this would be the sharpest sword in his hand in the future! "Ever since His Majesty put me in charge of the Royal Guards, I can say that I have been terrified, exhausted, thoughtless of food and drink, and worked hard."
"I don't want to hear you say four-character words here, let's talk about the key points!" Zhu Yuanzhang said impatiently.
"Yes, I have recruited thousands of spies in Kaiping County. These spies are physically strong and can easily fight one against ten! They are also smart and flexible! Finally, we opened a second explosives store. The chicken branch has a new development!”
