[Ming] Wuzong's Chronicle of Rebirth

Chapter 115 The 9th Year of Hongzhi

Zhu Houzhao was worried for a whole day, and he was so worried that he didn't think about tea or food, but Du Ruo could take it easy.If Zhang knows it, he will know it. Soldiers will block it, and water will cover it. Why worry about it.Annoyed, Zhu Houzhao rolled his eyes at him several times, and Du Ruo could only sit there silently to cool off.

But soon Du Ruo became unhappy, because he saw Zhu Youtang in a wheelchair at his home on the evening of the third day.Now Zhu Youtang is only in his early 30s, less than [-] years old, but his prematurely aging body made gray and white climb up his bun early.But even such perennial imperial prestige made Du Ruo feel a lot of pressure.

Unlike Zhang's view of Du Ruo, Zhu Youtang's view of Du Ruo is in a different mood.After all, Du Ruo still looks like Du Yide, especially the heroic spirit, which makes Zhu Youtang feel that Du Yide has come back to life. "How, are you surprised to see me?" Zhu Youtang came to Du Ruo more as an elder, so he still called himself "I" as usual, instead of calling himself "Zhen" like in public.

"To be honest, I was very surprised." Du Ruo knew that Zhu Youtang probably knew something, but what he didn't expect was that Zhu Youtang came to find him alone without telling Zhang Shi and Zhu Houzhao.When he just came back from the palace, he heard Gao Feng himself say that today the emperor was unwell and had already rested, so there was no need for Zhu Houzhao to pay his respects.

"That's the truth. Take me to see what you planted. According to Zhao'er, it's an amazing thing. Let me see it." Jiang Cong was about to push Zhu Youtang's wheelchair, but Zhu Youtang Tang blocked it. "Xiao Ruo is also my son, and it is his duty to be filial to my son. Let him come!" Jiang Cong immediately retreated, Du Ruo hesitated, and immediately went to push Zhu Youtang to his home safely Go to the backyard.

Du Ruoke didn't pay much attention to it, and he didn't feel at ease putting all those things in the Huangzhuang. He also opened up a considerable area in his backyard for his own pondering.Zhu Youtang saw that the backyard had been changed into a bad shape, but it looked like another scenery, and he couldn't help sighing and said: "Your father loves Kuolang the most, these places used to be open and closed, can you not open them now?" It is your skill to change such a beautiful pastoral scenery."

I saw that the original pond had been half-filled, and there were some lotus flowers with unattractive colors planted in the middle. Thanks to the blessings of a few children who have been tossing around the Imperial Garden in recent years, Zhu Youtang can still recognize that it is a lotus that eats lotus root. Rather than the ornamental lotus that I often see.The Martial arts field where horse racing used to be, has been transformed into a few fields dotted around.There are some flowers and trees planted in the middle, quite a sense of a winding path leading to a secluded place.The overall pattern of the back garden of the Duke's Mansion has not changed, but it is completely different from the original style.

"These are all made up by myself. It's as good as daddy said." Du Ruo was already prepared. Even if Zhu Youtang fell out with him, he would call him daddy with a shy face. Even if he was like that the day before yesterday, he still had to be called Zhang's mother.Zhu Youtang looked back at Du Ruo, Du Ruo felt that his heart was about to stop beating.

Fortunately, Zhu Youtang didn't say anything else. "I praise you because I really think you are good, so you will accept it." Zhu Youtang held on to the handrail and was about to stand up, but Du Ruo hurriedly helped it up with his own hands.Zhu Youtang stood firm, shook his head at Du Ruo and smiled wryly, "I'm old, and you are all grown up." Seeing that Du Ruo was about to comfort himself, Zhu Youtang immediately laughed at himself: "You don't need to comfort me, I'm not I don't know my physical condition. It's just a grasshopper after autumn, and it won't be long to jump."

Everyone said that, Du Ruo could only listen respectfully. "It's not dark today. I think there's still plenty of time. I don't know if I have the honor to be the first to know the yield of this corn." Due to his inexperience, Du Ruo's corn was planted too early, and it can be harvested in June now. up.Fortunately, there is plenty of sunshine this year. Even if the corn is planted a little early, the yield of corn will not be affected.

A few days ago, Du Ruo wrote a memorial in the name of An Guo Gongfu, saying that the corn in Huangzhuang was about to be harvested.It's just that Zhu Houzhao has been trying to find a suitable day for the ministers to witness together, so he was delayed by speaking with evidence. Now that the corn in his home has matured, it is understandable for Zhu Youtang to want to see it first.

Du Lin has been waiting on the side all the time. Hearing Du Ruo's order, he quickly called someone to clean up the corn. "This is a four-point land, and if you measure it with a ruler, one point is not too much, and one point is not too little." Du Ruo explained the calculation of the output.The corn, sweet potatoes, and potatoes here are all measured and planted in order to be able to accurately measure the yield.As for the question of whether it is good to eat, from fresh corn, polenta, corn cakes, to sweet potato vines, roasted sweet potatoes, and shredded potatoes, the answer is already obvious.

Seeing everyone throwing the corn into the prepared bamboo basket one by one according to the plan, Zhu Youtang didn't look at Du Ruo, and said in a nonchalant way: "Since you have already planned the future , is it convenient to share with my father."

It turned out that they were waiting here, and Du Ruo subconsciously wanted to apologize. "My lord, my son..." Zhu Youtang immediately supported him, and in order to help him, Zhu Youtang staggered himself. "You, it's the same as Zhao'er. As soon as I get angry, you start to change your words. Don't tell me you're not your father when I'm angry?"

This is the reason why Du Ruo really regards Zhu Youtang and his wife as his elders, and the superior people treat him so sincerely, how can Du Ruo not be moved, how can he not treat them as elders.But it was really hard to answer Zhu Youtang's question, so Du Ruo could only keep silent.

"I know, you think that there is still Wei'er, so you can ignore the responsibilities on your shoulders, right? Anyway, Wei'er will have a child, and you are alone. You are considerate that you can solve everything by doing this. Isn't it?" Looking at Du Ruo's drooping head, Zhu Youtang knew that he had guessed right.Du Ruo is different from Zhu Houzhao. Zhu Houzhao is so well protected, so even though he has lived for nearly 40 years, his mental age is still eighteen or nineteen.

But Du Ruo is different. If Du Ruo really came from the society, the reason why he can agree with Zhu Youtang is that Zhu Youtang can really overwhelm him in terms of momentum.But now when Zhu Youtang is more like an ordinary person, Du Ruo approves of him mainly because Zhu Houzhao really regards Zhu Youtang as his father.

"Then you also know the danger?" There will be a solution to everything, but it will not be perfect, and there must be loopholes, large or small.

"I know. Wei'er is a good boy now, but he may not be a good brother in the future. Ah Zhao gave way to Wei'er, and no one can guarantee that Wei'er can still maintain his original intentions, especially in the situation where Ah Zhao is now wise and prosperous. Excuse me." Du Ruo said that these are actually treasonous, but secretly saw that Zhu Youtang was not angry, and continued: "Even if it is the adopted child of Wei'er. Wei'er is still a child now. Wait until that child grows into a qualified child. The emperor doesn't know when it will be. During the period, Ah Zhao will definitely be criticized for not having a child!"

Especially after being criticized all the time, Du Ruo gritted his teeth.He doesn't care about those rumors, but Zhu Houzhao is not himself, Du Ruo is afraid that Zhu Houzhao will be hurt because of this.

"Since you know all about it, why do you still insist on being with Ah Zhao like this?" Whether it's a male pet or a true love, Zhu Youtang doesn't care that Zhu Houzhao plays child prostitution and sycophantic things, but when two When the children fell in love with each other to this extent, Zhu Youtang knew that it was time for him to act. "Even if he abdicates in the future, I think Zhao'er will put himself under house arrest for An Wei'er's heart, and show his heart to everyone. You don't know what kind of person Zhao'er is, can you just bear it?"

Of course Du Ruo knew what kind of person Zhu Houzhao was.He has the common people in his heart, but he also yearns for a life of blue sky and white clouds, lack of spring and autumn.Even now that Zhu Houzhao is confined in the imperial city, Du Ruo feels very distressed, let alone Zhu Houzhao will really find a mountain to imprison himself.Now, Du Ruo was even more speechless.

Of course Du Ruo knew about these consequences.It's just that these are all possibilities, just like a gambler, Du Ruo has been fascinated by the authorities, just to bet on the impossible.Bet that Wei'er can't grow crooked, bet that I can't control the rumors in Beijing and China, and bet that all the bad things I imagined can't happen.Du Ruo, who has always been cautious, has also lost his head in love, and is no longer rational in other aspects.

There are only a few quarters of this intact cornfield, and baskets of corn are quickly harvested.Zhu Youtang touched Du Ruo's hand and comforted him: "I don't want an answer for now, you should think about it first. You are smarter than Ah Zhao, I think you will make the best choice." After finishing speaking, he put on his shoes Prepare to move slowly into the field to see the freshly ripe corn. "Come, help me look at these corns."

Zhu Houzhao has explained clearly to Zhu Youtang that the yield per mu of corn and sweet potatoes is not much different from that of rice and wheat.The reason why this has an important role is mainly because they have the function of resisting heat and drought and resisting cold.The growing conditions of wheat and rice are really harsh, and in many places, as long as there is a disaster, there will be no harvest.If corn and sweet potatoes can be promoted, the situation should be much better.

These are all good varieties that Wei Jia has seen one by one, and they are the best corn used by Indians to worship gods. They are grown in the backyard of Du Ruo's house, and they are carefully cared for. Yield is higher.Zhu Youtang didn't pay much attention to these crops before, but several children have influenced him for several years, and Zhu Youtang has become a half-expert. "If it is really drought-resistant and heat-resistant, it is worth promoting. These seeds will be passed on next year?"

"That's not true. The brochures from the Ministry of Industry haven't been written yet. We'll plant another year next year. We'll plant more good seeds first." These crops don't just disperse their seeds, just like corn. If you don't understand Yes, the land will only become more and more barren. It is better to popularize agricultural knowledge first.

The author has something to say: There are so many little angels here, Sahuahua, thank you Xuanning for the mine, okay.There is also the supplementary points of autumn, I am so ashamed to see it.And Xiao Xiao, Fanhua, brushing your teeth every day, flowers blooming, Qin Han Empire, you are all awesome.There are also old angels, little passing water children's shoes, and panda Ting.thanks for your support. "Then you also know the danger?" There will be a solution to everything, but it will not be perfect, and there must be loopholes, large or small.

Chapter 110 Sixth Year of Hongzhi 19 Years

After seeing off Zhu Youtang, Du Ruo tossed and turned on the bed alone, unable to sleep.The moonlight is still bright and clear tonight, no different from the moonlight Mrs. Zhang wore that night, and very much like the moonlight that Zhu Houzhao and Du Ruo bathed in when they were lingering on the roof in modern times.With sleepy eyes, Du Ruo thought of those times in her previous life, Zhu Houzhao's fair skin and his smile that almost melted the sun.If Zhu Houzhao didn't have such a smile, Du Ruo asked himself, is this still the companionship he wants.

It wasn't until it was almost dawn that Du Ruo squinted for a while indiscriminately.Du Ruo got up early in the morning and was ready to go straight to the Forbidden City.At this time, the sun had not risen from the east, and the whole capital was still quiet. Occasionally, one or two mice could be seen running across the dark corners of the street before people came out to move around.Such a quiet atmosphere calmed down Du Ruo, who was already extremely anxious, and was finally able to sort out his messy thoughts, and drove his horse around slowly in the street.Du Ruo didn't enter the palace until the sun rose in the east, and went to Weiyang Palace to meet Zhu Youtang.

Du Ruo didn't want Zhu Houzhao to know that he and Zhu Youtang were discussing these things without telling him, so he came to Zhu Youtang and thought of the reason.He brought freshly picked tomatoes to Zhu Youtang.Zhu Youtang took away the corn yesterday, but he forgot the freshly baked tomatoes. Du Ruo went to find Zhu Youtang today and just brought this with him, and he can use this to cover it up when he explains to Zhu Houzhao later.It's not that Du Ruo wants to deceive Zhu Houzhao, he just knows that Zhu Houzhao cares too much about other people's feelings, and if something goes wrong, he might have to sacrifice his own feelings and wrong himself.

"This thing is sweet and sour, and it tastes good." The tomatoes that Wei Jia brought back were all small wild tomatoes, which had not been domesticated yet. They were small, round, and very cute.Even the taste is different from the later tomatoes. The tomato flavor is stronger, and it tastes more juicy and softer.Zhu Youtang's sense of taste has also degraded a lot, and such fruit with a strong taste just suits his appetite.

"My son is stupid, please show me and give me and Ah Zhao a clear way." With a plop, Du Ruo knelt down.Zhu Youtang was really startled at this moment, seeing Du Ruo being so forthright and being so sincere to Zhu Houzhao, he immediately felt a little bit more reluctance for the two of them.If these two children were really a rare pair in heaven and earth regardless of their gender, today I would be cruel to separate them.The strange thing is that they were all born into male bodies, and they all occupy such high positions, so everything they say and do 01:30 can't be wrong.

Hurrying to help Du Ruo up, Zhu Youtang sighed and said, "It's not that I insist on separating you, it's just that it's not the time for you to be together. We are also old, and I only hope that you are well." Let Du Ruo sit on the chair next to him Go up, Zhu Youtang also sits down. "You are also people with ideas. I know that you are just asking me now because you are worried that I will disagree. But even so, you came to ask me, and I will tell you.

"Zhu Youtang also had no sleep last night, and his sickly body couldn't bear it, and now he started coughing after speaking a little. Seeing that Zhu Youtang was coughing so badly, Du Ruo hurriedly gave Zhu Youtang the warm herbal tea that he usually prepared He poured out a bowl, held the bowl and slowly fed it to Zhu Youtang. Zhu Youtang swallowed the medicine, and Du Ruo followed the rhythm of Zhu Youtang's cough and straightened it out along his spine. Yutang is better.

"I also know what Zhao'er is like. He is not greedy for power. According to me, it is best for you to break it. But you can't break it, and you don't even care about your children. In this case, there are two ways here. .First, while I’m still here, I can calm down this villain and let Ah Zhao abdicate first. Second, you should finish what you have to do quickly, and let Ah Zhao escape with death.” These two methods are not the same. It's perfect, but Zhu Youtang believes that the two children know how to choose.

Du Ruo understood what Zhu Youtang meant, and Zhu Houzhao was starting to abdicate now, and his influence was limited.Zhu Youtang is alive again, enough for Zhu Houzhao to pass the throne to Zhu Houwei safely and securely.At least with Zhu Youtang present, Zhu Houwei and these ministers cannot trouble Zhu Houzhao.Even if Zhu Youtang is gone, Zhu Houwei has already made the dragon chair stable, and he is not afraid that Zhu Houwei will deal with Zhu Houzhao for that chair.

However, Du Ruo knew that this method would not work.Not to mention that if he can find a proper reason to abdicate smoothly, Du Ruo is not willing to just talk about the abdication.Du Ruo knows how much burden Zhu Houzhao has. If Zhu Houzhao abdicates now, then his ideals will die because of it.

For this alone, Du Ruo was unwilling.Then there is the second point.Du Ruo knew that Zhu Houzhao didn't have much reluctance to escape from death, and Zhu Houzhao was dead in name, the next generation of emperors would definitely feel more at ease.And this time is relatively sufficient, but if this is the case, I and Zhu Houzhao will have a long-term plan, and many ideas and plans that have already taken shape will have to be changed accordingly.

Looking at Du Ruo who was lost in thought, Zhu Youtang obviously relaxed a lot.He knew that these two children could not be forced to force them. According to the current situation, he and Mrs. Zhang could not be more forceful than the two of them.Of course, you can't use mother-child affection to suppress them like Zhang, otherwise you will easily fall into a passive situation.Zhu Youtang is very smart, he knows the weaknesses of the two of them, and he knows that Du Ruo is the one who makes the most emotional decisions among the two, and Du Ruo only cares about Zhu Houzhao.As long as Du Ruo is persuaded, things will be much easier.

Du Ruo didn't give Zhu Youtang a definite answer as to whether it was a matter between two people, but only said that he had to think again.Zhu Youtang didn't make things difficult for him either, and asked Jiang Cong to send him out, and also brought the newly made spicy dried fish and small pastries from the imperial dining room, and asked him to take them, so that he and Zhu Houzhao could fill them up when they were hungry abdomen.

The newly made snacks are spicy and delicious, making Du Ruo's mouth water almost.Du Ruo bid farewell to Zhu Youtang and was about to go to Qianqing Palace, Jiang Cong came out to see him off.Turning out of Weiyang Palace, Jiang Cong stopped Du Ruo and stood in the corner to speak. "The Emperor came back from Qianqing Palace three days ago and vomited a mouthful of blood. In the past two days, his spirit has become worse and worse. The Emperor refused to invite the imperial physician. The miscellaneous family also asked the young man to find a way to let the imperial physician come and see him quietly. , otherwise the situation will be bad.”

When the two of them were discovered by Mrs. Zhang at first, they were afraid that Zhu Youtang would get more sick if he found out.Now that he knew that Zhu Youtang vomited a mouthful of blood that night, how could he not know that he was angry with him.Du Ruo asked anxiously: "It's been two days, and you haven't invited an imperial physician?"

"I asked Imperial Physician Xue to see it. At that time, the Emperor told Imperial Physician Xue to keep silent. It got better in the past two days, except for coughing. But the Emperor's spirit was getting worse day by day, and he refused to ask the Imperial Physician again. The miscellaneous family really felt that something was wrong, and they dared not send the letter to the emperor, for fear that the emperor would intercept the news, so they could only ask the young man for advice." After hearing these words, Du Ruo's thoughts became clear again. messed up.

Quickly carrying the food basket to Qianqing Palace, Zhu Houzhao had just had breakfast, seeing that Du Ruo had come so early, he invited Du Ruo to eat with him.Du Ruo only dealt with a few bites at home this morning, and now he is very hungry, so he unceremoniously ordered a bowl of green rice porridge and started to eat it.Zhu Hou watched him eat absent-mindedly, poked him and said, "Yesterday you still talked about me, why did you start to lose your mind today?"

After a moment of silence, Du Ruo decided to tell the whole story about yesterday and today. The reason he kept it from Zhu Houzhao was because he thought he could handle it all by himself.But now that Zhu Youtang is like this, Du Ruo can't hide it from Zhu Houzhao.Screening everyone away, Du Ruo told Zhu Houzhao what happened yesterday and today, and Zhu Houzhao's eyes were red when he said it.

The reason why Zhu Houzhao didn't want Zhu Youtang to know was because he was afraid that he would get angry again. Now that Zhu Houzhao knew that Zhu Youtang was just hiding it from himself, he vomited blood and coughed again. Du Ruo hurriedly stopped him. "Jiang Cong told you and me out of kindness, you let the imperial physician go now, didn't you just tell dad that it was Jiang Cong who sent the letter to us two? How can you let Jiang Cong behave like this." Zhu Houzhao just said that.

"Just in time for Wei'er to ask for Ping'an's pulse in the past two days, send the fruits from Canada the day before yesterday to Weiyang Palace, let Wei'er go to Qianqing Palace after school, and let Imperial Doctor Xue play by ear " Zhu Houzhao called Liu Jin in and gave instructions.After hearing this, Liu Jin asked again: "Those fruits are still frozen in the ice cellar, and there are some preserved fruits and the like, do you want to send them too?"

"You're an old man, why don't you understand this?" Zhu Houzhao asked with a frown.Liu Jin has been waiting by Zhu Houzhao's side all the time, why is she suddenly not clear about these things.

Facing Zhu Houzhao's attack, Liu Jin was not flustered, and said with a smile: "The emperor forgot, he said a few days ago that these iced fruits should be sent to Weiyang Palace less, and more preserved fruits if they are to be sent." Thinking about it, I shook my head and laughed: "I'm confused. Send more of those preserved fruits, and send those fresh fruits to the Imperial Dining Room, and ask them to follow the recipe and send them to Weiyang Palace. Tonight, my little father-in-law and I They all eat at Weiyang Palace."

There is a patient, a woman and two children in the central palace. These fruits are delicious, but even if they are not damaged after being transported for such a long distance, Zhu Houzhao dare not give more to them.It was just what I said a few days ago, but in the past two days because I was worried about this side, I forgot again.Zhu Houzhao felt more at ease by asking the imperial dining room to make fruit rice, fruit porridge, and all kinds of delicious dishes after high-temperature sterilization.

Liu Jin heard the news and went out, Zhu Houzhao came back and said to Du Ruo: "It is indeed so difficult now, but it was much easier for us back then." But Zhu Houzhao lost his temper and swore that he would live a good life with Du Ruo, Zhu's father Mother Zhu reluctantly agreed. "But this is already considered good, otherwise we would have been beaten with sticks in the morning."

To be honest, Zhu Youtang and his wife are already very enlightened. It is not uncommon for Beijing and China to love men, and it is not uncommon for their parents to break their feet.What's more, those parents who only use their children as a tool to pass on their children simply regard their children as enemies.In comparison, Zhu Youtang and Zhang Shi are really good and couldn't be better.But now Zhu Houzhao still has to find a way to persuade Zhu Youtang and the others.

The author has something to say: The cute little fruit theater

Mr. Banana: Woohoo, this little fat man is going to eat me up.Yay, it hurts so much.

Pineapple Army: You call me P, I have not only shed my skin once, I have already shed my skin several times.I haven't called yet, what are you calling? (The pineapple is full of sour juice, and the wormwood is so greedy that it can't stop swallowing.)

Jackfruit: The thief who stole my name, take a look, is your peeled skin on the table. (On the table is the pineapple rice made from Mr. Pineapple's skin. Mr. Pineapple has not had time to mourn that he was eaten by wormwood in one bite.)

Only the blushing Mr. Mango looked dazedly at the three handsome guys of Zhu Youtang: Yay, so handsome, so handsome, wwww, handsome and cute Mango Mr., come eat me, eat me.

The proud durian gentleman expressed his disdain: o( ̄ヘ ̄o#) Scumbag in the fruit world, traitor, I don’t want to play with you. (In fact, Mr. Durian’s heart is broken: wwwww, I hate it, why do you think people stink, wwww, you humans are really annoying. I don’t want you to eat me. (;′⌒`))

Zhu Houzhao: Is it really okay for you to be cute like this?

Du Ruo: You're just as cute when you're naked. (* ̄▽ ̄)((≧︶≦*)
