Mixed with salted fish in Hongwudang

Chapter 240 There is a reason to clean up that grandson!

Zhu Yunxi didn't want to intercede for others, just because he sold those stones, tortoises, and white deer.

If Jin Yiwei really asked him to investigate, wouldn't Lao Zhu know all his little secrets?
"Grandfather, you just sold your grandson to save face, let's stop this matter, don't continue to pursue it!"

When Lao Zhu heard this, he had an ominous premonition, wondering if this shop might have something to do with this grandson?
However, Zhu Yunxie's words of selling his face made Lao Zhu feel a little bit moved, feeling that this is a good opportunity to make a name for Ni Sun.

"Since our eldest grandson has said this, let's sell our eldest grandson to save face, and let this matter go, but let's not make an example!"

"If you don't want to give birthday gifts, you don't have to. There's no need to fool us with a pile of broken stones!"

When everyone heard what His Majesty said, they hurriedly kowtowed and apologized.

"The minister waits to be convicted!"

"I would like to thank Your Majesty for your forgiveness!"

"Thank you King Wu!"

"I thank you, the third emperor's grandson!"

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help raising his eyebrows when he heard everyone thanking King Wu, feeling a little displeased in his heart.

Zhu Yunxi didn't care about it, seeing that he had fooled around again, he immediately returned to his seat to tease the parrot, secretly prodding him to call him handsome pot.

However, before he could teach a few words, he saw Lao Zhu walking over with a gloomy expression.

"Xiao Nisun, those stones are not your fault, are they?"

"Grandpa Huang, where are you going? How could your grandson do such a rebellious thing?"

"Humph!"

"Just make it up for us. If you don't like your birthday gift later, you can sleep on your stomach tonight!"

"Uh uh..."

After Lao Zhu frightened his eldest grandson, he immediately ordered the ceremony officer to continue singing the ceremony.

"The second emperor's grandson presents a picture of a hundred years of life!"

"His Royal Highness the King of Wu presents a treasure box of the Eight Immortals celebrating the birthday of the Eight Immortals!"

"The grandson of the four emperors presents a picture of longevity..."

As the ritual officer chanted, everyone's curiosity was aroused again. It is not uncommon to see pictures of a hundred longevity, but what is that music box?
Lao Zhu was also full of anticipation in his heart, thinking that this thing could still dance, that would be strange...

However, when Zhu Yunxi's birthday gift was brought up by the eunuch, everyone showed disappointment.

Because this thing is really too shabby, it's just a plain wooden square box.And the wood is all original color, not even a varnish.

"Dasun, is this the birthday gift you gave us?"

"Yes!"

With a promise, Zhu Yunxi ran down the imperial steps, opened the lid of the box, took out a special big iron rod from inside, inserted it into the round hole of the box, and shook it vigorously.

After finishing tightening the music box, Zhu Yunxi took out a few villains from the box, stood on the smooth mirror, and then pulled the switch of the music box.

As the switch was pulled, a melodious music resounded throughout the hall.

The melody was strange, something they had never heard before.

The sound is very crisp, like the ding-dong of spring water, and there is a faint sound of gold and stone, very melodious.

But what surprised everyone the most was that the villain standing on the mirror actually moved!

And as their bodies moved, their clothes swayed in the wind, as if they were dancing!
Lao Zhu didn't like such strange tricks, but since it was given by his grandson, his face was still full of joy.

Not only was he very satisfied with the birthday gift, but he also walked down the imperial steps happily and stood in front of the huge wooden box to watch it.

I saw eight villains of different shapes standing on the smooth mirror surface, including Lan Caihe carrying a basket, Han Xiangzi playing the flute, Tieguai Li on crutches, and so on. The allusion of the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea.

"I remember you didn't want to give this before, did you?"

"How does Grandpa Huang know?"

As soon as Zhu Yunxi said this, he secretly called himself a fool.With Erhu being such an ear god, what is the emperor's grandfather not aware of?
"Grandpa Huang is wise, my grandson really wanted to give another one to my grandson before, but my third uncle said that the name of the object was not good and it was not suitable for birthday gifts, so my grandson asked the craftsman to improve it temporarily and made it into a music box for the Eight Immortals to celebrate his birthday. To win the favor of Grandpa Huang, hehehe..."

Lao Zhu rubbed Dasun's little head with satisfaction and said.

"You have a heart, we like it very much!"

"As long as Grandpa likes it!"

"Another day, my grandson will bring over another thing. It's not a birthday gift or a congratulatory gift, but it's just a thing to put in the emperor's palace."

Old Zhu already guessed what it was, it should be the chime clock he saw before.

"it is good!"

"Let's wait!"

After seeing the birthday gifts presented by Dasun Jinxian, Lao Zhu was so happy that he gave rewards to all those who gave gifts.

For a while, the voice of the mountain shouting long live sounded again above the hall.

Lao Zhu returned to the dragon chair, and Zhu Yunxi also returned to his seat and sat down.

When Zhu Yunxi taught the parrot how to be "handsome pot", Lao Zhu's birthday banquet also officially started, and the officials began to toast in turn.

Lao Zhu is not a good drinker, and he is not addicted to alcohol on weekdays. He only drinks a little occasionally when he is in a good mood.

Therefore, although there were many people toasting, every time he just raised his glass as a gesture, and then took a small sip, and he had the right to respond.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, some people are a little bit drifting.

For example, Feng Sheng, who had just drank a jar of wine, respected Lao Zhu with his tongue out, and insisted on forcing Lao Zhu to finish drinking.

Old Zhu knew that this was a troublesome ghost, and he was notoriously brainless, so he didn't argue with him, and did it on the spot when he saw him toast.

When Feng Sheng saw His Majesty giving him such a face, his face flushed with excitement, and he shouted to offer another cup of respect to His Majesty.

Seeing this, Fu Youde hurriedly grabbed him, not wanting him to make further progress.However, he ignored Feng Sheng's talent in drinking.Don't look at him being drunk now, but his mind is sober, and Lao Zhu couldn't refuse the reason he opened his mouth.

"Master, you have drank the wine we toasted, and you have given us great face. Our old Feng is very happy!"

"But we, Old Feng, have to offer another toast to the superior today, and the superior must sell us some more face!"

"Oh?"

When Lao Zhu heard this, a sneer appeared on his face.

"Feng Sheng, if you can't tell the truth today, we will order someone to throw you into the moat to sober up!"

Feng Sheng was not afraid at all when he heard the words, he just smirked.

"My lord, this cup is for Lan Yu, Duke of Liang. Now Lan Yu is leading an army of [-] to fight for the country. Even if you don't care about our old Feng or Lan Yu's face, you still have to give ten Let's save face, General Wan!"

It was really hard for Lao Zhu to refuse when he heard this. He immediately stood up from the dragon chair, turned his back on the ministers and poured a glass of wine to the north.

Then he turned around, ordered someone to fill up the glass, and said with a serious face.

"I would like to respect the soldiers of Ming Dynasty with this cup!"

"My fellow servants!"

"Drink wins!"

When everyone heard this, they stood up one after another, raised their wine glasses and shouted loudly.

"Drink wins!"

After drinking this glass of wine with everyone, Lao Zhu just found a reason to slip away.

After Lao Zhu left, the atmosphere in the Fengtian Hall suddenly became high. No matter whether they were civil servants or generals, they completely let themselves go and began to drink freely.

Although the food in the palace is not good, the quality of the imperial wine is still good. It is a good wine carefully brewed by the wine and vinegar noodle bureau in the palace, and it is impossible for idlers to drink it.

Therefore, in the spirit of drinking one pot to make a profit and drinking two pots to make money, everyone opened their bellies to take advantage of Lao Zhu's family.

Seeing that Lao Zhu had left, Zhu Yunxi also left the table with his big bird, and sneaked to the Daben Hall.

Zhu Yunxi saw that the third brother had brought the big bird over, so he hurried over to tease him. Seeing this, the others also came over and circled the big bird.

Touch the big bird's feathers for a while, and feed the big bird some fruit for a while.

On the other side, the two tigers sent Zhu Xing to Beizhen Fusi, and asked several book offices to record in detail the process of Zhu Xing's deception, and then returned to the palace to be on duty again.

There were a lot of people entering and leaving the palace today, Jin Yiwei and Habayashi Wei were under a lot of pressure, they didn't dare to be careless.

However, when he returned to Fengtian Palace, he saw the emperor walking out of the palace, and hurriedly chased after him.

"My lord, the business of His Royal Highness King Qin has been finished, and His Highness King Qin has also been sent back to Prince Qin's mansion by his humble post."

"Ok!"

"Go and find out for us, where did you buy the stones offered by the officials today?"

"This is..."

Erhu replied awkwardly.

"My lord, you don't need to look into that, those stones, tortoises, and white deer are all sold by the young master..."

When Lao Zhu heard that it was indeed the troublemaker against his grandson, a smile appeared on his face.

"Tell us, how much did Ni Sun take advantage of our birthday this time?"

"Back... back to the emperor, I made about 10 taels of silver..."

"How many!"

When Lao Zhu heard that Xiao Nisun had made 10 taels of silver on his birthday, he was so shocked that his tone changed.

"Reporting to the emperor, 10,000+ taels are also available..."

"hiss……"

Seeing Erhu speak so hard, Lao Zhu knew that Erhu was not telling the truth, maybe his grandson made 20 taels!

This grandson is too capable of tossing around, how can he make so much money just for such a reason?

Thinking of this, Lao Zhu suddenly became restless. This was his birthday, so why was his grandson making so much money!

Even if the money earned by Ni Sun is not all his, it must be at least half of him, right?

Just find a reason to let the grandson spit out half of it, so as to alleviate the crisis of the court's lack of money?
"Two Tigers, apart from those broken stones, what else was made by the Ni Sun?"

"Return to the emperor, Song Guogong's bronze tripod is not from the Western Zhou Dynasty, it was made seven days ago..."

"Mr. Ying's Ru kiln vase is also a fake. It was imitated by the young master in a porcelain kiln outside the city..."

Lao Zhu was overjoyed when he heard this, and secretly thought that there was a reason to punish the grandson!

"This rebellious grandson can't beat him!"

"It's nothing more than taking advantage of our birthday to make money, but to deceive all the civil and military honorables all over the place is simply audacious!"

"Go and catch that Ni Sun for us..."

While Lao Zhu was saying this, he suddenly heard laughter from the harem.

Hearing this voice, Lao Zhu immediately remembered the matter of Concubine Guo Hui hosting a banquet in the harem for the royal wife.

"Don't worry about that grandson, anyway, he can't run away from the monk or the temple, we have plenty of time to deal with him at night!"

"You go to the harem with us first, and pick out a few wives for that grandson!"

"promise!"
