MTL - My Brother-in-law is the Prince-Chapter 36 praise
Chapter 36 Testimonials
Empress Xu is also a person who has weaved under Empress Ma, and she knows a lot about looms, so she nodded: "Okay."
So Deng Jian didn't hesitate anymore, and immediately started to get started.
In fact, although Deng Jian called it a textile machine, it is better to say it is a 'spinning machine'.
In Daming, the most popular is the three-spindle pedal spinning wheel, which originated from the famous Huang Daopo in history. After Huang Daopo in the Song Dynasty, it was improved, so four-spindle spinning appeared.
Because of this, the entire Ming Dynasty actually experienced a great development of the textile industry, especially in Songjiang Prefecture, where spinning became popular.
But it is clear that the spinning machine demonstrated by Deng Jian is different from the spinning wheel. A new spinning machine with eight vertical spindles driven by a spinning wheel, I saw him start to move with ease.
The more Empress Xu looked at it, the more she felt that it was rare, and she couldn't help but said: "This spinning machine is better than the ones used by my palace in the past. It is much faster and lighter."
Zhu Di stood aside, obviously not very familiar with women's weaving, but since Mrs. Xu agreed, it must be good.
So Zhu Di sighed: "The prince and the princess are too much trouble, the prince..."
"My son is here."
Zhu Di said: "Emperor Gao is a commoner in Huaiyou. He was able to win the world, and my Ming Dynasty was able to unify the world. It is all because of the virtues of Emperor Gao. Because of this, we, as descendants, need to be cautious. I see I am very relieved that you have this heart. You are the crown prince, the heir of the country, and sooner or later you will inherit the great rule, and you must bear in mind Emperor Gao, and more importantly, the teachings of Empress Gao."
Although Zhu Di has canonized Zhu Gaochi as the prince, he has shown ambiguous attitudes about whether the prince will be the emperor in the future. Today he directly said that the prince will succeed in the future. I am afraid that he has ulterior motives.
Han King Zhu Gaoxu listened, his face was miserable, and the Han Princess also had a face like a pig's liver.
Zhu Di put his hands behind his back and said: "My sons must remember this, and those who are heroes should also remember, don't make jokes all the time, it is not easy for the ancestors to conquer the country, if everyone is like Why are you like the two murderers in the capital? It’s okay? And your wife and brother, you also need to control them properly, you need to know that the embankment of a thousand miles collapsed in an ant nest. Hey... I hope you can understand this truth."
As he spoke, he paused, and then said: "Among these children, Zhang Fu is nothing more than that. He lost his father and neglected discipline, which is understandable. That boy Zhang Anshi, I have already done so in front of you, the crown prince. Be warned, there is another Zhu Yong..."
He thought of Zhu Yong, and his gaze fell on Yi Shiha, saying: "A few days ago, didn't I tell someone to pass a message to Cheng Guogong? Let him take good care of this kid. "
Yi Shiha looked embarrassed, and hesitated to answer.
Zhu Dican frowned: "What's wrong?"
Yi Shiha cautiously said: "Duke Cheng is His Majesty's confidant and beloved general, he can be said to be a man with a humeral heart. His Majesty asked the servant to find someone to talk about it in private. In fact, it was to save the face of Cheng Guogong, so the servant was thinking about it. So I asked Chen Gui, Marquis of Taining, who is good at Hechengguo Bus, to persuade him."
Zhu Di said: "What happened later?"
"At the beginning of the persuasion, Cheng Guogong hesitated, but later, Cheng Guogong became anxious."
Zhu Di was puzzled: "He is in a hurry, why is he in a hurry?"
"Duke Cheng scolded Marquis Taining face to face, saying how I discipline my son is none of your business."
Zhu Di looked confused.
This is directly silenced.
After a long time, he gritted his teeth and said, "Like a son, like a father, I knew that this old **** is not a good guy."
Obviously, Zhu Di was in a good mood at this time, and then said: "Forget it, ignore them."
That night, the sons and daughters had already left, and the sleeping hall, which was still lively just now, suddenly became quiet.
Empress Xu was sitting by the loom, fiddling with it.
Zhu Di was pacing in front of the window, and the moonlight fell on his face. His face, which was always strong and solemn, looked a little more sad: "Hey... you said... those incompetent children, like Guo Degan, how much should they be?" it is good?"
Empress Xu smiled sweetly and said: "Guo Degan saved the life of my concubine, but there is no one in the world who wants his children to be like other people's children. These children were raised by their parents, no matter how bad they are, It is also my heart. No matter how good others are, I can only envy them, but I never want to replace my own children."
Zhu Di smiled gently, and walked to Empress Xu who was sitting in front of the loom, and gently squeezed her shoulders, saying, "That's reasonable, hey, but it's just a pity after all. Let's talk about the prince, The brother-in-law is restless. If the prince really becomes the emperor in the future, Zhang Anshi will be the uncle of the country. You know the prince's temperament. The crown prince will indulge in that piece of Anshi, ruining the people and harming the people."
Empress Xu also frowned, quite worried. She always remembered Empress Ma's teachings, knowing that if the royal relatives and relatives harmed others, many people would have their families ruined, so she also nodded and said: "The Ze of the Gentleman, beheaded for three generations, if the children It's unworthy, it's very harmful. In this way, the concubine feels that if these children are like the Guo Degan that His Majesty said, it would be good, even if there are half of them."
Zhu Di laughed, and said again: "Actually, Guo Degan is not so good, he is eccentric and courageous, and he is the best at spreading rumors and causing trouble, and he even fooled me and took away a lot of money."
Empress Xu had heard about Guo Degan many times, she only listened carefully to Zhu Di's words, and suddenly said: "Didn't Your Majesty say that he is also a son of a wealthy family? Why don't you visit his family and take a look?" road."
Zhu Di's face was a little moved, but after thinking for a while, he said seriously: "The Jinyi Captain should be investigating the convicted person. If I send someone Tiqi out to inquire about this Guo Degan, it would be too much. Jinyiwei is a The handle knife can be used, but its blade is to deal with those rebellious officials and thieves, but it must never be used where it should not be used."
After finishing speaking, Zhu Di said again: "I actually know that there are people in Jinyiwei who are eager to try, but I have already sent people to warn in private. If anyone dares to act recklessly, I will not forgive you lightly. Most terrible."
Empress Xu felt the same way and couldn't help nodding.
As the night fell, the candles in the dormitory were gradually extinguished, and there was talk all night.
...
Zhu Gaochi has recently felt more at ease. His father began to let him get in touch with the government slowly, and his attitude towards him has also changed.
Zhang Anshi has also been doing his duty recently. He entered the palace to celebrate His Majesty's birthday for the Longevity Day. Yang Shiqi and Deng Jian almost stared at Zhang Anshi to death.
Everything seems to be going well.
Even after a few days, the emperor ordered the prince to go to Xiaoling Mausoleum to offer sacrifices to Emperor Gao.
This is also an important signal. The only source of legitimacy for the father to win the world is that he is the son of Emperor Gao. Therefore, filial piety to his father is a big deal.
Usually, Zhu Di personally presided over such matters, but this time, he let Zhu Gaochi go.
Zhu Gaochi went to Xiaoling, presided over the sacrifice, and returned to the East Palace at the end of the month.
only…
Um?
Zhu Gaochi felt that the East Palace was a bit different.
Of course, it doesn’t mean that Zhan Shifu’s institutions are different. The problem lies in the back garden of the East Palace.
The back garden is much colder, and the maids and eunuchs who shuttled back and forth on weekdays seem to have disappeared.
Even the **** who was responsible for welcoming and serving him on weekdays was gone. Only a hunchbacked and dazzled old **** raised in the East Palace sat behind the gate, driving away flies with a dust whisk, and leisurely basking in the sun.
Seeing Zhu Gaochi, he came to salute slightly trembling.
