Chapter 201 Nostalgia
After the meeting, the officials kneeled neatly and saluted: "The ministers and others are referring to His Royal Highness, Your Highness Qianqiu,"
They were very terrified. They had already heard about the Kaifeng Mansion. Not only were the local officials sent to Fengyang to open up wasteland, but even several marquises in the capital were deposed from their titles and exiled to the frontiers. Killed more than 50 officials who had inspected the granary several times before.
Zhu Biao waved them up wearily, marching during the day and sleeping in the field at night, even though Liu Jin worked hard to take care of them, it was hard to hide his fatigue, not to mention that Zhu Biao had a lot to worry about.
But what should be done is still to be done. You can't stop the ministers from showing their loyalty. That's not a good thing for the king and the ministers. After some politeness in the big tent, Zhu Biao asked them to retreat when he saw that it was almost done. .
The rest of the people also saw that His Highness the Crown Prince looked a little tired, and they all understood that they were about to leave, and they all stood up and said a few words to ask Zhu Biao to take care of his health, which was more important than these matters.
Zhu Biao nodded and accepted it, at this moment a military general wearing a sixth-rank official uniform stood up among the officials, bowed to Zhu Biao and said, "The last general pays his respects to His Highness, can you please go home to rest for a night. "
As soon as these words came out, the camp was silent for a moment, and the officials of Pingyang Mansion cursed secretly: "Even the magistrate dare not invite His Highness to rest at the mansion, you are a sixth-rank sesame official."
Zhu Biao was also taken aback. Apart from living in Kaifeng Mansion, any state capital he passed by was camping and resting in the wild. He just didn't want the local officials to mobilize the extravagance and waste. After all, he was here for business, not for fun .
At the beginning, some local officials invited them, but after they were all rejected, everyone knew it. However, if the prefect of Pingyang said this, it would not be a big deal, everyone knew it was just a polite way.
Just looking at this middle-aged man with a serious and sincere face, everyone felt that he was serious. The magistrate of Pingyang opened his mouth first to break the embarrassment and said: "Haha, Zhang Wei's words are also what the ministers think. Your Highness is running all the way for state affairs. Or Let's go to the city and rest for a night, but the Zhang mansion is a bit small, so let's rest at the minister's house."
The rest of the people also echoed. Zhang Wei was famous for his uprightness in Pingyang Mansion, and the prefect of Pingyang also admired him a lot.
Zhu Biao smiled and was not prepared to take it seriously. After all, it is understandable for the officials below to look for opportunities. Zhang Wei was in a hurry at this time, and his **** face turned red, and he said: "The last general A few days ago, my mother-in-law cried and told him that if he sees His Highness, he must invite His Highness to stay at the residence for one night, we have agreed, don't rob us!"
The rest of the people were even more confused at this time. This could not be a romantic debt, but looking at Zhu Biao's age and the news about His Royal Highness in the past, it is certain that this is impossible.
Everyone looked at Zhang Wei helplessly, you **** insisted on inviting Tai Sui back home, if something happens, don't implicate us.
Zhu Biao took a closer look at Zhang Wei at this time. According to this man, his wife should know him, but she shouldn't.
It's embarrassing to say that, although Zhu Biao is the crown prince, except for the women in the palace and the widows he met a few days ago, Zhu Biao really didn't communicate with other women.
Zhu Biao thought about it carefully, and then suddenly remembered the familiar embrace when he was a child, so he said with a smile: "You are Zhang Yuan's son, Yu'er's husband."
Zhang Wei's eyes lit up and he nodded again and again, and Zhu Biao's smile became even brighter when he was sure, he was really happy, Yu'er was his mother's big maid in the early years, who served Zhu Biao when he was young until he was five years old, Then under the arrangement of Queen Ma, she married the son of Zhang Yuan, the commander of Zhu Yuanzhang's army.
For five full years, during Zhu Biao’s weakest five years, Yu’er’s figure accompanied him day and night. A few years ago, Zhu Biao went to ask Empress Ma how Yu’er was doing, thinking of taking care of her.
But was stopped by Empress Ma, saying that Yu'er was doing well and didn't need to take extra care of her. Zhu Biao thought it was true. Yu'er was once the queen's maid. .
The rest of the officials looked at His Royal Highness's sincere smile, and immediately felt that the relationship between themselves and Brother Zhang needed to be strengthened. They would have to drink a few more meals in the future, and vowed not to give up until they became brothers.
Seeing that Zhu Biao remembered, Zhang Wei hurriedly invited him again. Zhu Biao thought about it, and although he was very tired, he should go there.
If Zhang Wei invited him in private, Zhu Biao would probably decline, and then find a free time to go there after finishing the matter, but this is a public one, and it would be bad for Zhang Wei and Yu'er to refuse.
Zhu Biao is a nostalgic person, and he has never forgotten Yu'er's care for him these years. Now that he has the opportunity, he naturally wants to repay him, so he said: "Sister Yu'er and I haven't seen each other for nearly ten years. , then let’s go.”
As soon as this sentence came out, everyone was shocked, and Zhang Wei didn't react. Zhu Biao then told them: "You all go out and wait, I will explain other things later."
The rest of the people reacted immediately and bowed to leave. By the way, they gently helped their brother Zhang out of the tent. When Zhang Wei got out of the tent, he realized that it was his immediate boss who was supporting him, and he was about to break free.
The prefect of Pingyang on the side stroked his beard. Fortunately, the official has already seen that this son is by no means ordinary, and he takes care of him a lot on weekdays.
The rest of the officials all winked at Zhang Wei: "Brother Zhang has kept his secrets, and he is able to get involved with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I would like to give you a word, don't forget me even if you are rich!"
Although Zhang Yuan was a little stunned, he reacted and explained: "The last general's wife used to be the big girl next to the Empress, and she served His Highness for a few years when she was young. Usually, the mother-in-law would not let her speak out, for fear of losing embarrassment and His Highness' face. .”
The rest of the people immediately became more enthusiastic. This relationship can be extended to the empress.
The prefect of Kaiping patted him on the shoulder and said: "Your son is not young anymore, just about the same age as my youngest daughter..."
Tongzhi Kaiping said at the side: "How can I remember that I only participated in your young daughter's full moon celebration last month?"
The magistrate of Kaiping grinned and said: "I have three sons and nine daughters in my family, and there are seven daughters who have not left the cabinet, and they are of different ages."
The rest of the people felt the gap between themselves and the magistrate. In the tent, Zhu Biao ordered Liu Jin to pack up, and then called Zhu Yi, Fei Ju, Xu Yungong, Guo Chong, Li Jin and others.
They also heard about this on the road, Xu Yungong, Guo Chong and others were overjoyed. It is a great thing for His Royal Highness to reminisce about the old days. They are newcomers now, but in the future they will be His Highness' old people.
