Da Ming Tai Shi

Chapter 98

"You said, that kid moved to Biao'er?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was reviewing the memorial sent by Chen Yunfu today, when he heard what Baoxiang said, he was immediately astonished.

"Yes." Baoxiang suppressed a smile and said, "Little master now goes to live with the crown prince every day after he is on duty from His Excellency Wen Yuan, and he won't go back to his own house."

Zhu Yuanzhang put down his pen, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he smiled after a while.

"Where this kid has lived for more than ten years, he is too clever."

People say that when you see a trick, Zhu Yuanzhang thinks that he is familiar with this Chen Yunfu a lot. Thinking about it, there have been two 'fights', but Lao Zhu himself did not expect that Chen Yunfu's tricks were broken this time. So neat.

Don't you want to flatter and kill me, then I'll move to live with your beloved Zhu Biao.

Regardless of Zhu Yuanzhang's other tricks in the future, he, Chen Yunfu, hid in the prince's mansion as soon as he was on duty.

In other words, Zhu Biao became Chen Yunfu's "shield" for Zhu Yuanzhang.

Chen Yunfu is not afraid of open and dark arrows in the officialdom, no matter how many they come, he dares to continue. As long as Chen Yunfu himself does not get greedy, corrupt, or pervert the law, he will not be afraid of the shadow if he stands upright!

But Chen Yunfu didn't dare to accept Zhu Yuanzhang's temptation, and even felt that he couldn't accept it.

If you can't provoke me, I can always hide it.

Hey, I just hid in the prince's mansion, use any tricks you have on your son.

That's why Zhu Biao said the last sentence in the conversation between the two in the prince's mansion.

"I will give you a hand!"

This is a kind of promise, promise that if Zhu Yuanzhang has anything to do in the future, he will stand alone in front of you and bear it for you!

With this promise, Chen Yunfu felt completely at ease.

After all, Zhu Biao's character is obvious to all, and he values ​​love and righteousness. He has never broken his promise.

Of course, Zhu Yuanzhang understands that if Chen Yunfu lives in Zhu Biao's mansion, it will be very troublesome for him to try Chen Yunfu's background later, unless.

Unless Chen Yunfu himself made a frivolous mistake.

But no matter how Zhu Yuanzhang looked at it now, he felt that a shrewd guy like Chen Yunfu would not make naive and low-level mistakes like frivolity.

"You can't judge people by their appearance."

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head and smiled wryly. He had to endure the loneliness and pretended to be sick so hard that he set up a trick and was drilled out by Chen Yunfu?
and many more!

Soon Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes widened again. Chen Yunfu not only got out of the cover, but also seemed to have slipped the cover away!
He is now a Bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion and the chief envoy of the General Administration!

"So, the promotion I gave him this time not only failed to deceive him, but also fulfilled him."

The corners of Zhu Yuanzhang's mouth twitched a few times, and he smiled wryly.

Originally, I wanted to keep Chen Yunfu from a high position, so as to see if Chen Yunfu was a powerful minister, and whether he would be lost and depraved in front of the poison of power, but it turned out to be a good thing. In the presence of Chen Yunfu, the official, the poison was also turned into a poison by him. tonic.

"A real master is one who clearly sees the trap and dares to drill in, and finally takes the trap away."

This is what Zhu Yuanzhang feels in his heart now.

Baoxiang couldn't hold back his laughter, and said bravely, "My lord, why don't we transfer the little master back to the East Pavilion again."

"It's no longer a joke." Zhu Yuanzhang scolded with a smile, "There's no reason to get rid of it after working for a few days."

"Although this kid seems a little unreliable, he has never been sloppy in doing things. In the past few days, he has quickly become familiar with the affairs of the General Secretary. This is a real ability. "

Zhu Yuanzhang praised him and gave his affirmation: "Since Biao'er believes that he can do the humerus and wants to stand up for him to block us, then we will trust Biao'er's vision this time.

The envoy let him do it! "

Zhu Yuanzhang gave Chen Yunfu the position of the third rank with the most power in the Ming Dynasty Hall.

It was given together with Zhu Yuanzhang's affirmation of Chen Yunfu.

This time, Chen Yunfu played very beautifully when he saw the tricks.

But correspondingly, no matter how outstanding Chen Yunfu is in the future, Zhu Yuanzhang will not give him a promotion.

Now that he has become a third-rank official envoy, where can he be promoted?

There must be some room for grace when Zhu Biao ascends the throne in the future, right?

Of course, the chat between master and servant would not reach Zhu Biao's ears. At this moment, the latter even regretted asking Chen Yunfu to stay.

This guy is too edible.

I don't know if it's because of the growing body or other reasons, but Chen Yunfu can really eat.

As the prince, Zhu Biao's daily meal standard is of course extremely high, but Zhu Biao is frugal and doesn't like extravagance and waste, so his lunch basically consists of eight dishes.

Don't think that eight dishes are too many. The eight dishes in the palace are added together, and the portion is not as much as a stewed dish in a restaurant outside.

Palace delicacies pay special attention to color, fragrance and delicate presentation.

Except that fish must occupy a large plate, other dishes and soups are often served with only a very small portion of good quality.

Those not chosen were left for the cook and servants to eat.

Eight dishes are just right for Zhu Biao to eat alone, but adding one Chen Yunfu is not enough.

Lao Chen can eat six and a half dishes by himself!

"Slow down, no one will grab you."

Zhu Biao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he looked at Chen Yunfu who was devouring and said: "You work in Wenyuan Pavilion, the food in the palace is better than Gu's, you don't need to eat like this when you arrive in Gu.

You said that you are also a third-rank official of the Ming Dynasty, if this is seen by outsiders, it will be a joke. "

"I don't have time to eat." Chen Yunfu swallowed the food in his mouth, and took a sip of tea: "These days the Tongzheng envoy does not know where so many things come from, and thousands of memorials are sent to Wenyuan Pavilion every day. Sometimes Xiaguan is so busy that he can't think of eating, and he is too embarrassed to ask Shangshan Bureau to open a small stove for Xiaguan.

Thinking of being able to come to His Highness's place after paying the price, he simply didn't bother to wait until dinner, so he rushed over. "

"You kid is a rich man." Zhu Biao was amused, and said, "You are really taking advantage of Gu."

Chen Yunfu laughed.

"However, you just said that the General Political Commissioner now gives thousands of memorials a day?" Zhu Biao still remembered the key points in Chen Yunfu's words, and said with a frown, "Why are there so many?"

"Because of the recruitment of minding for the Northern Expedition."

Speaking of this matter, Chen Yunfu also had some headaches, and said: "In order to take care of the logistics of the Northern Expedition, the imperial court asked Hebei, Shandong, Shanxi and other places to recruit 50 civilians to provide logistics for the Northern Expedition army. The political envoys began to blame each other. Shanxi and Hebei said that they had fought wars for decades, and the population was thin, and they would not be able to make up the number for a while.

We all know the situation in Shandong. The previous Northern Expeditions by the imperial court were all from Shandong, which led to a famine in Shandong in the 13th year of Hongwu. So this time Shandong was not very happy, and the imperial court could not bear to force Shandong is too tight.

There is no way, the shortage can only be recruited from Jiangnan with sufficient household registration, and the Zhili prefectures are lucky to say that the local provincial road is called an ink mark, and this matter will not only keep increasing. "

"There are difficulties in the local area, so it shouldn't delay the Northern Expedition."

Zhu Biao nodded, but his frown still did not loosen, and asked, "How did the emperor give this order?"

"Your Majesty said that we should send some people from the Department of Officials to go to the provinces in the south of the Yangtze River to supervise on the spot. Your majesty plans to take some time tomorrow to go to the Department of General Affairs to arrange this matter."

"it is good."

Zhu Biao nodded, then suddenly raised his eyes.

"Chen Yunfu!"

"what?"

"You've finished all the dishes!"
