433. Preparations for martial arts
"Your Majesty, this is my method..."
At that moment, Zhu Xiuyuan began to explain his method, supplemented by pictures, to make it easier for Chen Huang and Concubine You to understand.
A quarter of an hour later.
"Okay, Aiqing's method is really extraordinary, really extraordinary, haha, wonderful, wonderful, as Aiqing said, this method is faster and more fun!" Chen Huang's face was excited, as if it was boiling oil.
rosy.
"Zhu Aiqing's mind is different. I feel suddenly enlightened..." Concubine You also praised.
"My beloved, I have entrusted you with the construction of this hot spring. All the necessary items will be paid for from the Imperial Mansion. I will give you another waist card. With this card, your beloved can freely enter and leave the imperial city. If you need to enter
When you come to the Forbidden City, you can use this badge and be followed by a young eunuch..." Chen Huangdang even made the arrangement.
As soon as he finished speaking, another waist card was presented to him, and Zhu Xiuyuan accepted it politely.
After Zhu Xiuyuan accepted the order, he bowed again: "Your Majesty, the noble concubine, now that everything has been settled, I will leave the palace and start preparing for the martial arts..."
"Hey, my dear, don't be anxious. There is no need to rush for this moment. We, the monarch and his ministers, still have two things to do!"
Zhu Xiuyuan was a little dazed.
There’s something else!
"This first thing is the reward from your beloved!" Emperor Chen smiled and twirled his beard. It was obvious that he was in a very happy mood at the moment.
"Yesterday, Aiqing not only provided military strategy, but also assisted Dong Aiqing in uncovering a large group of corrupt officials! Aiqing's contribution can be said to be the greatest, how can I not reward him?"
Zhu Xiuyuan breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out to be this... He was naturally humble, saying that he would share your worries and not ask for rewards or anything like that.
But these are all polite words.
"Well... I just hate that I don't have a suitable princess, otherwise I will definitely let Aiqing be my son-in-law!" Emperor Chen sighed.
After Zhu Xiuyuan heard this, he was frightened and his head was a little dizzy.
I thought to myself, why didn’t Chen Huang give up this idea?
"Your Majesty, Concubine Kong's daughter?" Concubine You suddenly reminded.
"Concubine Kong..." Emperor Chen's brows moved, and his face suddenly became happy: "My dear, although I don't have a suitable princess, it doesn't mean that I don't have a daughter. The daughter of Concubine Kong mentioned by the noble concubine just now is only young.
Eight years old, but born..."
"Your Majesty, no! Absolutely no!"
Zhu Xiuyuan was shocked and hurriedly stopped him. He wanted to cry.
Eight years old?
Are you kidding me!
"The princess is rich in gold, not to mention that I already have a wife. In addition, the princess is too young. It is really... inappropriate. Your Majesty, please be clear and please take back your life!" Zhu Xiuyuan was very excited.
"Your Majesty, since Zhu Aiqing thinks it's inappropriate, then let's give up!" Concubine You said with a smile, with a strange look in her eyes.
"Well, dear, don't get excited. Haha, that's what I said. If you feel it's inappropriate, then I will take back what I just said!" Huang Chen said with a smile, with a look on his face, as if he felt that Zhu Xiuyuan was far away.
Cai's excitement is quite funny.
"I... thank you, Your Majesty, and thank you, the Imperial Concubine!" Zhu Xiuyuan breathed a heavy sigh of relief.
This Emperor Chen and Concubine You are really eight-year-old princesses, and they can speak out... Zhu Xiuyuan is really convinced!
"Hey, the dancing girl in the palace... I don't want it, so what else can I reward you with?" Emperor Chen seemed quite melancholy.
Emperor Chen himself felt it was inappropriate to say that he should be granted the title of Marquis directly.
How can I be granted the position of Marquis lightly?
"Your Majesty, since Zhu Aiqing and his wife are very affectionate, why not give him a imperial edict?" Concubine You suggested.
"That's right, why didn't I think of that! My beloved concubine is still smart!"
…
The reward was thus decided.
Dong Shuzhen was given the fifth-rank title because Zhu Xiuyuan's earl was also of the fifth rank.
In addition, there are 10,000 acres of fertile farmland.
There are thousands of servants in the Ewha Palace.
In addition, there are gold, silver, silk and satin, cloth, grain and oil, even salt, etc.
It’s enough to load hundreds of cars!
The reward was over, Zhu Xiuyuan bowed his hands again and said, "His Majesty just said that there are two more things, but I don't know what the last thing is?"
"Haha, I am very happy today. My beloved is here, so of course I am drinking, having fun, and enjoying singing and dancing! Come on, my dear, come and sit down..."
Emperor Chen was in a good mood, and Zhu Xiuyuan couldn't refuse, so he had to sit down.
Soon, the palace banquet was served... much richer than the previous days!
It seems that the receipt of more than 10 million taels of silver has aggravated Chen Huang's "spending money" symptoms again...
During the banquet, the palace dancers took turns to perform, singing and dancing, creating a prosperous atmosphere of singing and dancing.
Concubine You also changed her dance clothes herself and performed another "Yushu Backyard Flower".
That dance, and some exposure that was inappropriate for children... Chen Huang was really willing to let him see it!
That is his favorite concubine!
Hey, Zhu Xiuyuan inevitably remembered the crazy things she said to Kou Wanwan at Huamanlou yesterday afternoon...
Afternoon.
Chen Huang was already very drunk.
The palace attendants helped him down to rest.
Zhu Xiuyuan took the opportunity to leave, and Concubine You, who was still sober, said something else, probably saying not to forget her and the prince...
Zhu Xiuyuan was naturally knowledgeable, which put Concubine You at ease.
In fact, although what Kou Wanwan said at Huamanlou yesterday afternoon was crazy, it also had merit.
This Concubine You really helped him a lot, she is a big and strong tree!
As long as Emperor Chen does not die, Concubine You will not fall out of favor or lose power.
This is a very good help for Zhu Xiuyuan!
Anyway, everyone in the civil and military circles of the dynasty believed that Zhu Xiuyuan was already on the prince's side, so he might as well just take advantage of the situation.
But... Zhu Xiuyuan really has no idea of conquering Concubine You!
That's just crazy!
…
After Zhu Xiuyuan left the palace, he left the city directly through Zhengyang Gate and rushed to the Shen Lei Army camp ten miles away.
Accompanied by Zhou Dong, he carefully inspected the entire camp.
It was right this time. People from the Ministry of Industry did not dare to mess around and the construction was very good.
Then Zhu Xiuyuan went to the Shenleifang next door and walked around. He nodded again and again.
New weapons such as fierce fire oil tanks, thunderbolts, firecrackers, etc. are being built nervously and carefully...
"The overall situation is good. The Shen Lei Army camp can be put into use. Tomorrow... no, let's start today. We will first transfer 10,000 ordinary soldiers into the camp to familiarize themselves with the environment." Zhu Xiuyuan ordered.
"My benefactor, I obey your orders!" Yan Dashan replied.
"Da Shan, I have worked hard for you during this period. You once served as a captain in the army. These ten thousand soldiers will be temporarily under your control. After the military examination and the generals are selected, you can
I pulled away and started to deal with the matter of forming a family."
"Okay!" Yan Dashan rubbed his hands. He was as big as a mountain, but he was as excited as a teenager.
"Zhou Dong."
"The official is here."
"In your case... just keep an eye on the Shenleifang carefully first. I have worked hard on you by asking you to take care of the Shenlei Army camp. After a while, I will ask for a reward for you!"
"Thank you uncle!" Zhou Dong's face became excited.
"But you have to be careful. The territory of Shenleifang is so important that it is too big. Even though there are thousands of Jinwu guards stationed there, you still have to guard against it. Domestic defense craftsmen complain or collude with the outside world. External defense is about infiltration by other countries and stealing new styles.
Weapons are secret! If you do well, His Majesty will definitely reward you greatly, and it is not impossible for you to become your wife and son-in-law. Do it well!" Zhu Xiuyuan encouraged.
"Please rest assured, uncle, I will do my best to ensure that there is nothing wrong with Shenleifang!" Zhou Dong looked solemn.
…
When he returned to the mansion, before he could take a sip of tea, the 1,000 gold Wu guards and 5,000 Yulin guards allocated to him by Emperor Chen had "arrived", and they came to the uncle's house to report together.
During this period, these people were under his command.
Of course, this is limited to martial arts matters.
Zhu Xiuyuan ignored the hard work and immediately started preparations for the martial arts competition.
Chapter completed!
