“You are so talented”

“Your Majesty has repeatedly issued edicts to seek talents among the people. Why don’t you dedicate these remarks to His Majesty?”

“Your Majesty will definitely put you to good use!”

Zhu Heng curled his lips, looked at Zhu Di and said:

“That day when the peach blossoms were in full bloom, I read a poem to you so that you could go out and flirt with girls. Have you read it to your father?”

“You recited too many poems while drunk, how could I know which one? Zhu Di said.

Zhu Heng rolled his eyes, took a sip of milk tea, let out a sigh of satisfaction, lay on the rocking chair, and said leisurely:

“Peach Blossom Temple in Taohuawu, Peach Blossom Fairy in Peach Blossom Temple.

The Peach Blossom Fairy planted peach trees and folded flower branches to pay for wine.

When you are sober, you just sit in front of flowers; when you are drunk, you have to sleep under flowers.

There are flowers before and after flowers day after day, and drunkenness and sobriety year after year.

I wish I could die in my old age and spend my time drinking wine, rather than bow in front of my carriage.

After finishing reading, he looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and said casually:”How can this life be uncomfortable?” Do I have to be an official? After Zhu Yuanzhang heard this

, he took a deep look at Zhu Heng and said:

“Are you worried that you will conflict with Confucianism and be incompetent in the world? So you don’t want to become an official in the court?”

“That’s okay to say.”

Zhu Heng nodded casually.

Lao Zhu used the standards of a Confucian saint to ask officials.

You can’t go shopping in Goulan, and you have three days off every year, and your salary is as low as the center of the earth.

I will learn from Tang Bohu to be a peach blossom fairy, and I will light some autumn incense in the future. He doesn’t smell good. Only a fool becomes an official.

But when Zhu Yuanzhang saw Zhu Heng drinking milk tea leisurely, he sighed with a complicated expression:

“Even if the emperor invites you to go now, you won’t go, right?”

“Nonsense, not only am I not going, I’m also going to pack up and run away!”

“knew……”

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Heng’s determined look and nodded with a somewhat complicated mood.

The young man is extremely talented but cannot be found in the world.

So he simply gave up his passion and secluded himself from the people, letting his talents go to waste rather than bowing to Confucianism.

I can only express my feelings to a fool like Lao Si while I’m drunk in the mountains and fields.

A body of pride, like gold and iron, clanking!

Isn’t he a wise man?

“Father, brother Zhu Heng’s talent and character… are far superior to those of our big shopkeepers.”

Zhu Biao turned to look at Zhu Yuanzhang with a serious face.

I hope he will die in the midst of wine and wine, rather than bow in front of his carriage…

Zhu Yuanzhang chewed on this poem, stood up suddenly, and said with bright eyes:”We understand.”

Zhu Heng was stunned.

“Don’t worry, at least with the magnanimity of the current emperor and prince, they won’t let you bow in front of the carriage.

Zhu Biao also solemnly clasped his fists and said,”Thank you very much, brother, for your discussion today. I will definitely keep it in mind in the future.””

“It doesn’t matter, just chat casually……”Zhu Heng waved his hand and said

“This is not a casual chat……”Zhu Biao looked at him deeply:”I have to go back to do some things first, and I have to digest these remarks today.”

Now that Zhu Heng has gained something again, the way of inner saint and outer king will not work. The equal tax on square fields and the land grant system only address the symptoms but not the root cause.

I have to go back and discuss it with the ministers.……

“oh……”Zhu Heng stood up:”Then walk slowly”

“Father, it’s getting late. It’s better to have dinner before leaving.……”Zhu Di said quickly.

Eh, isn’t it?

Zhu Heng and everyone were dumbfounded. You are the master and I am the master?

Isn’t it my turn to say this?

Can you stop being so familiar!

Zhu Biao also smiled and said:”Dad, speaking of which, you haven’t eaten out for many years, right?””

“you……”Zhu Heng looked at him in disbelief.

Zhu Yuanzhang also glanced at Zhu Di. His silly boy wanted to deepen his good impression of Zhu Heng.

That’s all.

He simply said:”Then let’s eat here.”

“Why are you three like this?……”

Shameless?

Zhu Heng looked at his small courtyard with suspicion, and then at the three people with smiles on their faces.

This should be my home, right?

How come your family is so thick-skinned? Eating and drinking is as natural as breathing.

He is really in the same vein as Zhu Si.

Zhu Di hurriedly said:”Brother, the woman I want to introduce to you is the eldest daughter of my father’s godbrother. She is beautiful and well-read in poetry and books!”

A top scholar?

Zhu Heng coughed and said,”Ling’er, let’s have dinner today.””

“Master, I don’t have time to do it alone.”Ling’er was caught off guard.

“Then eat hot pot……”

Hot pot is simple, and the base ingredients are always available.

Zhu Di went to help Fu Bo Ling’er and prepared the ingredients and set the table in the courtyard.

Soon, a copper pot was brought up.

The bottom of the charcoal-burning red spicy pot boils, and a rich spicy fragrance rises up.

“What a fragrant soup.”

Zhu Biao couldn’t help but be surprised when he smelled the smell. The fragrance was extremely special. He had never heard of it. It was very irritating, but it made him want to try it.

He carefully scooped up a spoonful of soup with a spoon and drank it, but almost took a sip. He choked to death and kept coughing, but he still said quickly:”Father, don’t drink! The soup is poisonous”

“no no.”

Zhu Di quickly patted his eldest brother on the back and explained:”This is called hot pot, it’s not poison, it’s chili pepper, and this hot pot is not for drinking.……”

“It turns out to be a hot pot, but the spiciness…why is it so special?”
