Chapter 138 Hu Weiyong didn’t understand and was shocked

Chapter 138 Hu Weiyong didn’t understand and was greatly shocked

At this time, all the officials in the Ministry of Rites, big and small, were not at all dignified and upright as usual.

One by one, they casually collapsed on the seats, pouring a few sips of tea into their mouths from time to time.

Occasionally, there were a few who were very hungry, and from time to time they picked up the snacks on the side and stuffed them into their mouths.

After all, Mr. Hu’s snacks and tea are all good things that they rarely get a bite of on weekdays.

That's right, the location where they are at this time is Mr. Hu's workplace.

But in front of me, these people were actually officials from the Ministry of Rites who had followed Hu Weiyong outside to greet the mission for several days.

Although we had food and drinks outside the city, we even considered the windproof and warm pavilion.

But going back and forth every day has exhausted these officials who usually only need to look through documents in the government offices to catch fish.

After all, it is not just the envoys from small countries who have to deal with all the rules and etiquette for welcoming and sending off.

Also being tortured were their group of officials!

No, after finally finishing it, I don’t even have the energy to go back to my workplace, so I might as well hang out with Mr. Hu.

After all, with Master Hu standing in front of him, even if Master Shangshu comes, he would be embarrassed to scold them, right?

What's more, Mr. Hu's tea and snacks are carefully prepared and delivered by his family.

Tsk tsk, isn’t this much better than the rags I prepared there?

But sometimes, the more a person is afraid of something, the more it will come.

No, it was obviously to hide from Lord Shangshu that everyone gathered here in Lord Hu's office.

Unexpectedly, Master Shangshu, who was usually invisible and invisible, came over with his old face.

Originally, Zhang Shan, the Minister of Rites, had something to discuss with Hu Weiyong.

But how could he have imagined that it would be so lively here.

So when I came in, my face turned dark.

But when he looked at Hu Weiyong, he saw him coming in. He didn't even have the intention to stand up and say hello, so it was hard for him to have an attack on the spot.

He simply waved his hand at the others and chased them away like ducks.

After everyone else had left, the minister, who looked much older than Hu Weiyong but was actually several years younger than Hu Weiyong, said with a wry smile.

"Mr. Hu, can you give me an explanation?"

"Why do you treat the Korean and Japanese missions differently?"

"For an important minister of a country and a close confidant like you to make such a move, the impact will be huge!"

Upon hearing Zhang Shan's words, Hu Weiyong narrowed his eyes and scolded him angrily.

"Zhang Shan, you old boy, do you still want to bluster in front of me?"

"I call you Lord Shangshu on weekdays, but you, an old boy, really think that I am a minister?"

"You know, if you want to say that, when you were transferred from Zhongshu Zuosi Lang to the Ministry of Rites as Minister, I recommended and nodded!"

"What's going on? Your wings are hard, do you dare to stab me?"

Upon hearing Mr. Huda's generous words, Mr. Shangshu, who was usually very dignified in the outside world, only had a wry smile on his face and begged for mercy.

"My dear Mr. Hu, what are you talking about!"

"Give me the courage, I wouldn't dare to stab you!"

"To put it bluntly, I came to you purely because I'm afraid!"

Zhang Shanzhang, Grand Minister, saw that no one else was present. This was a complete showdown with his old boss.

"Mr. Hu, it's not like you don't know that I've always been a timid person!"

"No, ever since I took the position of Minister of Rites, I haven't been able to eat well and sleep well!"

"It looks like I'm going to be transferred to the local manager soon, so I can't make any mistakes!"    "Oh, you want to be transferred? Where are you going?"

Hu Weiyong really didn't expect that an old boy he promoted casually at the beginning could actually be in charge at this age.

This is a feudal official!

And it is absolutely true to say "The sky is high and the emperor is far away".

It's quite suitable for an old boy like Zhang Shan.

"Your Majesty's general idea may be to ask you to go to Huguang and stay for a while!"

"Well, that's not bad, it suits you quite well!"

Hearing Hu Weiyong's comments, Zhang Shan's face changed and he burst into tears on the spot.

"That's right! I've been waiting for this for two years!"

"It's been a long time since we finally got the opportunity, and you've started to make trouble here!"

"Sir, please be considerate and considerate of your subordinates!"

"We are not His Majesty's confidants like you!"

"You may be fine with this kind of trouble, but your subordinates can't handle it, and neither can the Ministry of Rites!"

Only then did Hu Weiyong finally understand.

Oh, it turns out that this old boy is worried that Zhu Yuanzhang will bring disaster to Chi Yu.

This idea is correct. Lao Zhu's temper is really unreasonable.

"It doesn't matter! You don't have to think too much!"

"They're just some barbarians from a small foreign country, don't worry about them!"

"That means I'm still wearing this official uniform. Otherwise, why wouldn't I just ignore them?"

"If I don't give them a kick on the spot, I'm not eating!"

Hu Weiyong said angrily.

Seeing Zhang Shan wanted to say something again, he waved his hand and said.

"Don't ask, I'm too lazy to explain, just pretend that I can't understand it!"

"What's wrong? Bullying an envoy from a small foreign country is nothing!"

Just when Zhang Shan was about to say something, someone suddenly came to report: "His Royal Highness has arrived!"

When they heard that Zhu Biao was coming, Zhang Shan and Hu Weiyong couldn't sit still.

After all, they have different identities, so they must go and greet them.

When Zhu Biao came to the Ministry of Rites, he was not just wandering around. He really had something important to discuss with the officials of the Ministry of Rites.

There are specific details on how those envoys should pay tribute, how the Ming Dynasty should receive them, and how they should return gifts.

As the Prince of the East Palace, Zhu Biao is quite knowledgeable and knows a lot about these things.

So he was sent here by Zhu Yuanzhang to be responsible for this matter.

Because Hu Weiyong was also one of the persons in charge of receiving the envoys this time, and Zhu Biao held him tightly and refused to let him go, he simply listened on the sidelines with a look of resentment on his face.

But as he listened, Mr. Hu felt that something was wrong.

Why do you think these people mean to receive these envoys with the highest etiquette?

Not only that, but when they return the gift, they have to pay back several times the amount of their tribute gifts?

Just like that, they are still worried about not being able to show the magnanimity of the country?

Damn it, why don’t you guys have the awareness to be fathers to other countries?

If this is according to Mr. Hu's idea, isn't it right for you to honor your father?

Just give you a few compliments, what else do you want?

But when it comes to Zhu Biao and this group of people, they actually still lose money?

So, isn’t this father’s job for nothing?
