Daming: Apocalypse of Longevity

Chapter 155 The Birth of the Prince
After saying this, Wang Yuanbao waved his hand and asked the young eunuchs to put the three whole sheep on the grill, lit the charcoal, and began to roast the whole sheep.

After a while, three whole lambs were roasted until they were sizzling with oil, and the aroma of meat spread out. The grills were lined up facing the officials, and the eunuch in charge of roasting the sheep also faced the officials. Holding a fan, the smell of meat is naturally coming to my face.

The officials were already unbearably hungry, and it was the most difficult time. How could they bear this? They all gnashed their teeth and clenched their fists. They hated the emperor for using such "dirty" and "despicable" methods to deal with them, and also Hating that he was weak-willed, when the three sheep were roasted, Baiguan's tears finally flowed down from the corners of his mouth.

Seeing the three roasted whole lambs being unloaded from the grill by the eunuchs and moved into the Qianqing Gate, Baiguan suddenly felt a strong sense of loss in his heart, but after thinking about it, this was not a kind of relief. Woolen cloth?Finally, I no longer have to endure the temptation of roasting a whole lamb and the torture of being tortured by such "despicable" methods!
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on the corners of Baiguan's mouth, as if to say, "It is simply wishful thinking to use such despicable means to defeat my iron will, and the emperor's means are nothing more than this!"

Just as they were thinking this, they saw several more eunuchs coming out of the Qianqing Gate. They carried out three more whole sheep that had been slaughtered, and then put them on the grill under the desperate gazes of the officials. Put it on the rack and continue to bake.

At this point, all the officials have finally figured out that today the emperor is going to punish them to death, but everyone is a decent person. As the saying goes, "Sciences can be killed but not humiliated." It's too much to starve people to death!
Thinking of this, Baiguan gritted his back molars and cursed in his heart: "Why the hell does the Queen want to eat roasted lamb? This is obviously because she sincerely wants to humiliate us. The Queen can eat so much." ?"

But as soon as they thought this, they heard Wang Yuanbao standing outside the Qianqing Gate and shouting: "Your Majesty's oral instructions, thinking of the loyalty of the slaves, have been serving the Queen with all their heart during this period, and they have roasted the whole lamb." Share the food with all the slaves!"

As soon as Wang Yuanbao finished speaking, more than a dozen eunuchs and maids walked out of the Qianqing Gate. Each of them held a tray with cut roast mutton in their hands. After they walked out, they spoke in front of all the officials. Let it go, and then eat it directly.

And they seemed to be greedy, deliberately eating more deliciously than the others. The ministers kneeling in the front row could clearly hear the eunuchs chirping!

This time, I really couldn’t stand it anymore. I didn’t care about “poisoning” people when they were starving to death. They also started a live “eating and broadcasting”. Who can stand this?

Therefore, even if several ministers staggered, fell to the ground, and immediately fell unconscious, it was not known whether they were hungry or angry. If they were fainted from gluttony, logically speaking, they should not... …

Someone fell first, and the psychological defenses of the officials collapsed immediately. Then one after another, some people fainted and fell to the ground. Even those who were still holding on and did not faint were still on the verge of collapse.

Seeing more and more people falling down, Wang Yuanbao became a little worried, so he quickly returned to Qianqing Palace and reported to Zhu Tianqi.

Zhu Tianqi didn't even raise his head. While chewing on the roasted leg of lamb, he said: "Those who fainted were sent back to their homes. Those who didn't fainted were asked to continue kneeling. Only a few of them knelt. It’s time, no one can die!”

Wang Yuanbao thought about it. Although these people have been kneeling here since dawn, they have only been here for four or five hours at most. Think about those brave people in the past who braved the scorching sun, rain and snow, and still If they can kneel down for a day or two, what does that mean to them?
And after such a comparison, Wang Yuanbao couldn't help but shake his head secretly. The civil servants of this term are not good. Why are they in such poor health that they fell down after only four or five hours... As the ministers were carried away by the eunuchs one after another, they were sent back. After leaving home, before the sun set, all the ministers kneeling outside Qianqing Gate were wiped out.

And this time the civil servants lost completely. Not only did they kneel all day in vain without even seeing the emperor, but they also didn't even get any reason. The only thing they gained was humiliation. After all, the emperor neither scolded them nor beat them. They didn't even chase them away. It was because they failed to live up to their expectations. They didn't last even a day before they collapsed. And to be ashamed to say, they fainted from greed!
You have to say that this is because the emperor "does not respect martial ethics". The emperor has already said it out loud. He is roasting mutton for the queen. The queen is about to give birth now. The world is so big that the queen can give birth. Is it a big deal?The queen just wants to have a bite of roast lamb, can the emperor not be satisfied?So there is really no way to say this, I can only admit it!

But before they could discuss what to do next, the emperor had already said, "I have made up my mind about the imperial conquest in person. Anyone who dares to stop it is deliberately delaying the military situation and has ulterior motives. They will all be questioned by the Jin Yiwei." , I will deal with it after I win and return to the court!"

But can these civil servants in the DPRK and China be intimidated by such words?They are not afraid, what they are most afraid of is that the emperor will come to them hard, so the memorials of persuasion are still handed up like snowflakes.

Zhu Tianqi ignored them all, and instead began to prepare for the imperial conquest in an orderly manner. On the other hand, he was guarding the queen Zhang Yan. After all, Zhang Yan was about to give birth, and he was also very nervous.

Three days later, Zhu Tianqi went to the Jinyi Guard Point to inspect the troops. During this gap, news came from the Palace of Qianqing that the Queen Empress had successfully given birth to a prince, and that the mother and son were safe.

When Zhu Tianqi heard this, he was very excited. He got on the dragon chariot and ordered the Jin Yiwei who carried the dragon chariot to run back to Qianqing Palace. It was not until he saw Zhang Yan and the baby beside her that he finally calmed down. down.

And he didn't know if it was because his emotions cooled down so quickly that he didn't even know what to do. He just stood stupidly in front of the bed, looking at Zhang Yan and the child, with a somewhat embarrassing giggle on his face.

Zhang Yan looked at Zhu Tianqi, smiled tenderly, and said, "Your Majesty, give our child a name!"

Zhu Tianqi suddenly came to his senses. There was no need to think about the name now, because he had already thought of a name for the child during the ten months of Zhang Yan's pregnancy.

After all, Lao Zhu's family has clear rules for choosing names. His child is of the generation with the word "ci", so the only space left for him to use is the last word, and it must be next to the word "fire", so As a result, there are fewer words to choose from, so there is less confusion in choosing a name.
