Daming: Father, I am no longer a teacher

Chapter 68 Hold and step, Lao Zhu made a move (first order requested)
In the side hall, the emperor hosted a banquet to entertain everyone.

The royal chef of the palace brought the food, and the dishes were still as simple as before.

Zhang Normal had already eaten the emperor's banquet once, and was not surprised by these slightly monotonous meals, but the Kong family father and son were quite shocked.

The state banquet hosted by Emperor Hongwu was not as good as the usual family banquet of the Kong family. Kong Xixue couldn't help but take a look at Zhu Yuanzhang.

The Confucian family were frequent visitors to the court of the previous dynasty, and they ate countless banquets of the former emperor of the Yuan Dynasty.

Kong Xixue took a sip and tasted it, the taste was mediocre, if it was normal, he probably wouldn't even have the desire to try it, only when he saw the emperor and the crown prince eating with gusto, he realized that the emperor was not pretending to be noble.

While Zhu Yuanzhang was eating, he was reminiscing with Zhang Normal, which was tantamount to leaving him and his father alone.

After waiting for a while, Zhu Yuanzhang said happily:
"You must be curious, what good things did Zhang Aiqing send me?"

"Xu Aiqing, Kong...Xixue, do you know?"

Xu Da, Kong Xixue and others vaguely heard the conversation between the monarch and his ministers just now.

Xu Da answered honestly:

"It seems to be related to smallpox?"

"That's right!"

Zhu Yuanzhang handed the book presented by Zhang Normal to Xu Da, but Xu Da refused to accept it and said:
"Your Majesty, what is recorded in this book is a secret recipe? If I shouldn't read it, I'd better not read it!"

His sense of proportion made Lao Zhu very pleased.

"This is exactly what I think Zhang Aiqing is so valuable. It is not an exaggeration to call the contents of this medical book a secret recipe! If Longhushan obtained this recipe and kept it secret, at least it would be a lucrative business every day. But Zhang Aiqing not only sent the prescription To me, I also suggest that I spread this recipe all over the world without any concealment!
This is the great merit, the great practitioner!So Xu Da, don't worry..., because after a while, I will announce this method to the world! "

Xu Da and Kong Xi heard the words, and their curiosity was aroused.

First of all, Xu Da took the book and simply browsed it, his face changed drastically. He read it carefully, then stood up, and saluted Zhang Normal.

"Renren Zhang's actions are of great merit!
I don't know how many people in Huaxia survived because of what the real person did today! "

Zhang Normal hurriedly got up and returned the salute, saying that he was ashamed.

The book was passed to Kong Xixue's desk, Kong Xixue opened it, his expression changed drastically.

"There is really a way to eradicate smallpox in the world, is this impossible?"

Kong Xixue blurted out, and then realized that he had lost his composure, and quickly knelt down to apologize.

The emperor smiled, but he didn't get entangled in this matter.

"Of course I will find someone to test, but I believe that Zhang Aiqing will not joke about this matter!"

Zhang normal quickly knelt down and said:
"If the minister lies half a sentence, he shall die!"

"I believe you, but I can't trust your character? You, Longhushan, enjoyed the same respect as the Confucian family in Qufu, but you, Master Zhang, took the initiative to write a letter to reduce your power. Longhushan lost the power to issue certificates. You At least tens of thousands of taels of silver have been lost in a year, right?"

When talking about Du Yi, Lao Zhang's heart bleeds, but he also understood from the emperor's words that Zhu Yuanzhang was very clear about their Zhang family's income.

In the early Ming Dynasty, there was a shortage of people, food, and money...

Relying on the power granted by the imperial court to issue degree certificates, it is not a trivial matter to make a fortune of ten thousand taels a year.

Lao Zhang is afraid when he thinks about it. It is really uncomfortable to be stared at by the emperor.

"You are sincere, and I can't bully honest people, Zhang normal!"

"Chen is here!"

Lao Zhang will lie down and prepare to accept the seal!

"I entitle you to be the leader of the sect, protect the country, explain the ancestors, and uphold the Tao, the Dazheng, the Daoist, the rank is the first rank, and the golden seal is granted! Three thousand acres of land..., twelve yi of gold!"

As the emperor read out the rewards, Zhang Normal's eyes were slightly disappointed, there was no celestial master...

After all, the Holy Majesty will not return the Zhang family's celestial master position, but from real person to great real person, you can't say that the emperor didn't reward him, on the contrary, the emperor has too much sincerity compared to the reward.

After all, he saw a glimmer of hope, and quickly knelt down to thank him.

"Zhang Aiqing, you also said that the lonely souls of the ancestors in the Northland are waiting for my son of the Han family to comfort you. I will entrust you with a heavy responsibility. If I want to save these martyrs in the future, I will rely on you...

Moreover, whether your Zhang family offers the vaccination method, whether the people in the world can accept it or not depends on the implementation of the imperial court. It is also very necessary for you, Longhushan, to come forward to solve the confusion for the people. "

"Sir, obey the order!"

"I will print the "Sutra of the Great Law of the Microcosmic World" and distribute it to all states. In the future, if there is a plague, monks and Taoists must recite this scripture. And the medical book handed down by your family, can you name it?"

"Please give the name to the emperor!"

"This book is about things in the microcosmic world, so let's call it "Micro Words"! The book says that in the three worlds, there are tiny and invisible insects. I read it with horror. I am going to issue a boiling water order to persuade people in the world to burn as much as possible. water to drink..."

Old Zhu elaborated on all kinds of things, and Zhang's normal mood became agitated.

If sealing up a big Daoist person and giving him some money and land did not make Zhang normal much happy, the emperor's next words were the source of his excitement.

The benefit that Emperor Hongwu gave to the Zhang family was not in rewards, but in helping the Zhang family to increase its influence.

This kind of influence may not seem new to the outside world, but for the Zhang family in the mixed religion world, it is a supreme wealth. If you take a step back, even if you have not fulfilled your long-cherished wish with the emperor, is it true that Longhushan is the most powerful? Isn't it possible to kill emperors and dynasties in such a place?
But the influence brought by the emperor's words today is enough to last for thousands of years...

Zhang Normal had already forgotten how many times he had kowtowed. The relationship between him and the emperor was enjoyable, but the father and son of the Kong family felt like they were sitting on pins and needles.

Zhang Normal, who they looked down upon, unknowingly became the protagonist at the emperor's banquet, while the Kong family and his son, who looked down on the old Zhang family, were marginalized.

Finally, Lao Zhu and Zhang finished speaking normally, and turned their attention to Kong Xixue.

Kong Xixue had a feeling that you finally paid attention to me, and he didn't realize that after he was suppressed by the emperor, the arrogance he had at the beginning disappeared long ago.

"I originally admired Lord Yan Sheng so much that I insisted on letting him come to the capital, but it is embarrassing for him to become like this!"

"Kong Aiqing, how old is your father?"

There was no trace of dissatisfaction with Kong Kejian on Lao Zhu's face, instead he looked amicable.

"Return to Your Majesty, my father is 53 years old!"

"It's 53, the so-called knowing the destiny at fifty, but Yan Shenggong is not like that!"

Zhu Yuanzhang's words made everyone nervous, especially Kong Xixue, who almost knelt down to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Fifty knows the destiny, but the emperor said that Kong Kejian didn't look like it.

Doesn't that mean that Kong Kejian can't figure it out?
Zhu Biao, Xu Da, Zhang Normal, and Zhang Yuchu, who was very invisible, all lowered their heads, trying to reduce their presence as much as possible.

Everyone knows that His Majesty's anger will finally be poured on the Kong family.

　The first update, there will be more later!
