Father can be an enemy country

Chapter 43 Fengyang Flower Drum
On Fengtianmen Square.

Amidst the sound of worship from mountains and tsunami, what Zhu Yuanzhang thought was that at this time 30 years ago, the same grand ceremony must have been staged in the imperial palace of Yuan Dadu, right?

The monarchs and ministers of Meng Yuan definitely don't know, and they don't care about the tragedy of this farmer's family surnamed Zhu.

And now, will the same tragedy be happening?

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang felt like sitting on pins and needles, and even felt disgusted with this grand ceremony that cost a lot of money.

'Dong dong gong, dong dong gong', it was not until the familiar sound of flower drums sounded that the haze in his heart was dispelled.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked around and saw that there was a Fengyang flower drum team in red and green on the square in front of him.

This is a repertoire of the Hongwu Dynasty. Every year when the folks come to Beijing to celebrate the New Year for him, they will give the emperor a piece of his favorite Fengyang flower drum at the court meeting.

After the prelude, the Flower Drum Troupe started singing and dancing.The flower drummers are all golden voices picked out by Quan Fengyang, and they caught everyone's ears as soon as they opened their voices:

"Talk about Fengyang, talk about Fengyang, and beat the flower drum with your hands. Fengyang is really a good place. The red dragon ascends to the sky and the golden phoenix flies. Count the stars in the sky, and count the number of generals in Fengyang.

Talk about Fengyang, talk about Fengyang, and beat the flower drum with your hands.Fengyang is really a good place, and the emperor's kindness is magnificent in all seasons.Not taking corvee and not paying food, the banks of the Huaihe River are full of joy! "

"Okay, okay, really good!" The newly compiled Huagu Opera was sung at the heartache of all Huaixi dignitaries, and they cheered after hearing it.

Even Zhu Yuanzhang smiled again, and ordered these old folks to stay and have lunch with him.

~~
After the early morning, it was almost noon, and a group of Fengyang villagers were led into the Huagai Hall.

In the canopy hall, several long tables were filled with chicken, duck, fish, and all kinds of fine wines. Before the villagers sat down, the emperor arrived.

The villagers were so panicked that they knelt down and shouted long live.

Zhu Yuanzhang turned out from the apse with a pleasant smile, and helped the old folks up with his own hands.

"Get up, you don't need to be formal, anyway, you don't understand those rules, just act like you are in your hometown, and do whatever you want."

After Boss Zhu finished speaking, he didn't go back to his dragon chair, took the hands of the two old men, sat down directly among the villagers, and had a drink and chat with them.

The folks were a little cautious at first, but after three glasses of wine, the atmosphere gradually became lively.They began to toast Zhu Yuanzhang one after another.Lao Zhu has trained a lot in the army, so he will not refuse anyone who comes, and when the wine is hot, he starts a family routine with them.

"How are you guys doing now?"

"Thanks to the great blessing of the emperor, since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, our Fengyang has been in good weather year after year." An old man said gratefully: "The emperor also exempted us from taxes and corvee, so those days fell into a honeypot!"

"Yes, yes, yes, yes." All the villagers quickly echoed.

"Hahaha, good." Zhu Yuanzhang also smiled happily. "We became the emperor, so we must let the old folks have a good time too. Otherwise, the emperor will not be a goddamn emperor for nothing?"

"Hahaha! Your majesty is really nostalgic!" The folks laughed and flattered Lao Zhu.Regardless of the fact that they are all from the countryside, there are endless eulogizing words.

"Before I heard that our old Huaixi brothers sent their families back to enclose the land to build a manor, which was very disturbing to the people. We have dealt with them and set up an iron list on Fengtianmen Square, telling them to restrain their families and not disturb the local area. "Zhu Yuanzhang asked again:
"It's been a few years, I wonder if they committed the crime again?"

"No, no, absolutely not!" The old folks shook their heads together, and an old man said with a smile:
"Who dares not to listen to the emperor? Besides, isn't the old man Han Han watching? Whoever dares to mess around and lose the emperor's face doesn't need to be handled by the government, and Han Han will break his leg!"

"Oh hehe, good." Zhu Yuanzhang smiled with his beard folded, but the prince who was drinking with him could hear his father's uncomfortable laughter.

But Zhu Yuanzhang would not show face with the old folks, and asked them how the progress of the construction was, and did they disturb the people?
The folks all said that the progress is very fast, and the situation is different every day. South Korea's public management is very good, and the civilian husbands and ordinary people do not disturb each other.

"Well, okay, when the imperial city of Zhongdu is repaired, let's go back and see you." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with satisfaction, and asked: "And those rich immigrants who moved from Jiangnan, how are they getting along with you?" Huh? Did anyone run away?"

"Being able to settle in Zhongdu is a blessing they have cultivated in eight lifetimes, and they can't be driven away!" The villagers wiped their sweat with smiles, and they all woke up from the wine.

The emperor asked so many questions that their pants were all wet.

Fortunately, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't break the casserole to ask the end, and asked a few other questions, so he just had a drink with them and the atmosphere quickly became relaxed again.

After drinking until the sun was setting, Zhu Yuanzhang asked the prince to send the old folks away from the palace for him.Before leaving, he didn't forget to ask people to pack the leftover dishes and take them to the posthouse for dinner to the villagers.

When the prince came back from seeing off the guests, Zhu Yuanzhang had already drank a pot of strong tea and basically sobered up.

"How do you feel?" He said while pointing to his back, asking the prince to scratch it quickly. "I was itching badly from drinking just now, but it made us itch badly."

"It's hard to tell." Zhu Biao shook his head while being scratched by his father. "It just feels a little unreal."

"Yeah, they have performed every year, and they have learned every one of them, and they have learned to report good news and not bad news." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said, "It seems that we have to change people every year to hear something useful."

"However, the life of the folks must be getting better every year." Zhu Biao said with a smile: "I see that they only drink and don't use their chopsticks much."

"Haha, yes. Are you thinking of the first year of Hongwu, when they ate us up?" Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and said, "That's right, folks, just live a happy life, and other things They shouldn't worry about it."

"Father, you should stare for a while, there will be another show tonight." Zhu Biao said softly.

"Alright." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, he was still a little tired after all the tossing.With the support of his son, he stood up and said, "Raise your energy so that you can sing the highlight of the night."

~~
There are lanterns and festoons in Fengtian Hall, and a large banquet, much larger than the one at noon!
Zhu Yuanzhang is going to hold a banquet to celebrate the New Year with his old brothers.

It is Zhu Yuanzhang's habit to spend New Year's Eve with his family and New Year's Eve with his brothers for many years.It has been exactly 20 years since we laid down Hezhou and got the first piece of land, and it has been like this for 20 years.

As soon as Youshi arrives, the nobles in Beijing come to the banquet one after another.

Because of the nature of a family banquet, the guests who greeted the guests at the gate of Fengtian Hall were all Zhu Yuanzhang's sons.

Zhu Zhen also took the initiative to invite Ying, and stood at the door with his brothers.Not for anything else, but mainly to take the opportunity to meet those celebrities who have only seen it in TV dramas.

The most famous one is of course General Zhenglu and Wei Guogong Xu Da. He has a clear face, a burly figure, a long three-strand beard, restrained eyes, and a calm demeanor. He looks more like a scholar.

But from the fanatical eyes that the second brother and the fourth brother looked at him, circling around him like a dog's leg, we knew that General Xu no longer needed any external proof.

He is one of the top ten players in history, or even the top five.

But Xu Da is just an example. Most of the nobles look very casual, and their manners are even more unrestrained.There was even someone who hugged him and kissed him...

Damn, this king's innocence...Zhu Zhen regretted his death and came to be this welcome guest.
