Chapter 160 Zhu Yuanzhang is seen in a picture

Chapter 160: Zhu Yuanzhang’s appearance

Li Shanchang's perception of Hu Weiyong is extremely complicated.

There is kindness, admiration, jealousy, feelings...

It can be said that if we really wanted to talk in detail about Li Shanchang's impressions of Mr. Hu, I'm afraid I would have to pull out a fan chart on the spot.

But at this moment, Li Shanchang didn't even want to say anything.

It was really numb.

He actually wanted to yell loudly at this moment: "Why?"

But I still held it back after all!

After all, he was still confused and knew clearly that if he yelled this sentence, he would not only get no answer, but would also get himself into trouble.

Li Shanchang took a deep breath and slowly walked towards the palace gate, while constantly thinking about everything that happened today in his mind.

Especially the words Zhu Yuanzhang said, he kept repeating them over and over in his mind.

He just wanted to figure out a reason.

Why was Zhu Yuanzhang so affectionate to Hu Weiyong?

Although at the banquet just now, Lao Zhu said he was an old brother, and the other was mediocre and very affectionate.

Of course, the grain that was just revealed to have a yield of more than 30 dan per mu is really scary.

But these are just merits.

As a veteran who has been with Zhu Yuanzhang for a long time, how could Li Shanchang not know about Zhu Yuanzhang's temper?

Although he does not have Mr. Hu's vision from later generations, he is not stupid either.

Of course he knew what kind of person Zhu Yuanzhang was.

However, on the one hand, he could not let go of his desire for power, and on the other hand, he also felt that Zhu Yuanzhang would not go too far towards their old Huaixi brothers.

So since the most that can be done is to resign from office and go home to farm, what's the point?

Therefore, he knew very well that Zhu Yuanzhang certainly valued merit.

But in fact, in his heart, he didn't pay much attention to it at all.

Hu Weiyong's achievements will certainly give him some face.

But just after the banquet was held, Song Li was sent over for a private chat, which seemed too intimate.

This... is what puzzles Li Shanchang the most, and it is also what makes Zui depressed.

Why!

In terms of status, he, Li Shanchang, was granted the title of Duke of Korea, and he was the head of the Duke of Yiying;

In terms of position, Li Shanchang is now Dr. Guanglu, Grand Master, and Prime Minister Zuo of Zhongshu!

In terms of relationship, Li Shanchang was a trusted minister who stayed with Zhu Yuanzhang when he was still young...

But all these things put together are still not as good as Hu Weiyong...

Why is this?

Li Shanchang finally left with a feeling of confusion.

The other courtiers, especially those who witnessed the scene where Mr. Hu was called away by Song Li just now, could only shake their heads and leave with envy on their faces.

There is no other way. When it comes to receiving awards for meritorious service, you can still fight for it, or use some tricks or something.

But there is nothing we can do about having a good relationship with His Majesty and being trusted by His Majesty.

To put it bluntly, most people are not even qualified to think about it.

They are just coolies and long-term workers working for Lao Zhu's family.

Among the people leaving, Liu Bowen's eyes were particularly complicated.

‘Tsk, tsk, Weiyong’s path to seclusion is not easy to take! ’

‘Ha, I thought I was the only one who regarded fame and fortune as nothing, but I never thought that I would meet a fellow traveler like Wei Yong! ’

‘Just now everyone was envious of Weiyong’s beauty, but who noticed Weiyong’s ugliness and grievance? ’

‘Those are the eyes and expressions of someone who really wants to escape! ’

'Pity! We can't make it, even mediocrity can't make it! ’

‘O sin! ’ ˆ ˆ ‘Zhu Chongba, can you give me an accurate message on how to let me go? ’

‘We have already defiled ourselves to this point, what else do you want from us? ’

‘Don’t you know that strong melons are not sweet? ’

‘Oh, it’s so annoying! ’

It has to be said that Liu Bowen, a top minister who has always been thinking about running away, is Hu Weiyong's true comrade.

All the bullshit is fake. Isn’t it more comfortable to go home and lie down than to be in the court where people plot all kinds of things and be worried all day long?

Forget it, keep working hard!

As long as you work hard, you can always return to the countryside!

Liu Bowen, come on!

On the other side, Hu Weiyong finally arrived at Zhu Yuanzhang's palace.

Looking at the palace, which was magnificent on the outside but had to light a large tallow candle for lighting inside, Hu Weiyong pursed his lips in silence.

Well, even though I have been here so many times, I still want to laugh every time I see how dark the palace is and how big candles must be lit.

Mom, if there is no glass, no electric lights, and it is difficult to install a lighting system, can't we make the house smaller?

Doesn't this make it so dark and uncomfortable?

You have to suffer for the sake of face!

Hu Weiyong slandered all the way and walked up to Zhu Yuanzhang.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang had already put on his favorite regular clothes.

At this time, he still looked like an emperor.

A thick piece of coarse cloth, drooping cloth shoes, crossed legs...

It can be said that Zhu Yuanzhang at this time was the most common farmer in the Ming Dynasty.

But Hu Weiyong still tightened the string in his heart and saluted without daring to relax at all.

"I have met His Majesty!"

Zhu Yuanzhang glared at him angrily, waved his hand and said.

"Okay, there are no outsiders here, who are you going to show this to?"

"On weekdays, you don't shout much about Commander-in-Chief, Chongba and the like?"

Mr. Hu's face darkened, he twitched the corners of his mouth and reluctantly replied.

"That was all done by Meng Lang. I hope your majesty will forgive me!"

Zhu Yuanzhang squinted his eyes and drooped the corners of his mouth, looking at Hu Weiyong speechlessly.

"Weiyong, it's boring to do this!"

"Get up, we have something serious to do with you!"

Upon hearing this, Hu Weiyong breathed a sigh of relief.

Well, it can make people understand clearly.

He really wanted to hear what was going on that caused Zhu Yuanzhang to make such a big fuss today.

As a result, after Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, Hu Weiyong was completely dumbfounded.

No!

You went through all kinds of troubles and scared me so much that my heart almost stopped beating, just to let me use my little niece as the crown princess?

Wow, your family is really particular about it.

Now are you telling us about your parents’ orders to be a matchmaker?

However, Hu Weiyong was really in trouble at this time.

Because he knew that it involved more than just Hu Xinyue's personal happiness.

To put it bluntly, this actually involves the change of imperial power in the Ming Dynasty and Mr. Hu's happy life for the rest of his life.

Damn it, Zhu Chongba, you old and dishonest person, why do you think about my little niece every time you look at me?

Why don't you go and let Mr. Lu straighten himself up and give birth to Mr. Zhu Yunzhen?

Why does it have to involve my family?

Well, I just want to lie down, okay?

so annoying!
