Chapter 1462: Prince Xian
The civil servant did not expect that Zhang Butang would suddenly ask about an irrelevant Ottoman country, and... he also got such a big temper.
He was naturally trembling and felt that Zhang Butang was very unfriendly to the Ottoman prince.
So I added fuel to the fire.
"The Honglu Temple also reported that the prince was ruthless and liked to ask people for advice and learning everywhere. Even during the discussion, he even made wild words everywhere, saying that it was the Prince of the Ming Dynasty... the Prince of the Ming Dynasty... he said that the Prince of the Prince, uh... it was basically meaning that the Prince of the Prince only knew the minor details but did not understand the general principles. Such a person could only become a craftsman, but could not become a hero of a generation."
Zhang Sheng was stunned.
"He...he actually said this, it's too... too..."
The word "Tai" was revealed, but Zhang Sheng didn't know what to say later.
It's really... wise.
After all, as the Minister of Rites, Zhang Sheng occasionally disliked Zhu Houzhao's, so he learned everything and did not learn anything real.
Although this Ottoman prince caused him to be scolded, he... he hangs with scholars all day long, discusses and asks people for advice.
And he also criticized the prince's behavior.
This... is certainly unrestrained and bold, but it really hinders diplomatic relations between the two countries, but... it sounds so pleasant.
It's indeed... the prince of someone else's family.
This prince will become a great man in the future and may be a generation of masters in the Ottoman Kingdom.
Of course, such words cannot be said...
Zhang Sheng said lightly, "This is so nonsense. I, the Prince of the Ming Dynasty, can he discuss it? Is there no restraint in Honglu Temple? However... this person is not without some wisdom, but he is a little smart, but he must not be complacent. Also... let them quickly submit their letter of state, meet the emperor, and wander around the capital all day long. What's the matter? Is he an envoy?"
The clerk was also a little confused when he heard this.
What does the Trido mean? Is this praise or scolding?
Zhang Sheng suddenly asked again: "What is the deep meaning of this person making friends with great scholars and scholars?"
The clerk said: "The Honglu Temple said that this person yearned for the prosperity of our Ming Dynasty. He had always been looking for the country's prosperity and strength, believing that this must be related to customs and knowledge. Therefore, he communicated with great scholars and scholars, discussed with monks and Taoists, and even... he invited Confucian scholars to return to the country with him in the future."
Zhang Sheng frowned and said in horror: "This prince is ambitious and should not be underestimated. He is devoted to China. Could it be that he also wants to follow the Hu clothing of Zhao State in the Spring and Autumn Period?"
This allusion of Hu clothing and riding and shooting comes from the period of King Wuling of Zhao in the Spring and Autumn Period.
Of course, Zhang Sheng compared this to this, saying that the Ottoman prince became interested in Chinese knowledge and religion because he yearned for the Ming Dynasty.
The clerk said helplessly: "I don't know."
Seeing that he couldn't ask anything useful, Zhang Sheng said, "I know, you go."
Zhang Sheng sat on the chair and waited for the clerk to leave, but his face was in a state of uncertainty.
It has to be said that this Ottoman Prince Suleiman gave him a very deep impression.
His thoughts moved, he took the pen and ink, and wrote a memorial as if he was flying.

The test field in the greenhouse is about to be harvested.
Zhu Houzhao became even busier.
The data of each test field must be read with your own eyes before you can feel at ease.
If there is anything unusual, I still need to visit it myself. These days, Zhu Houzhao has a rustic smell all over her body, and she has a bit of the style of a rustic Xingsun.
Fang Jifan invited Zhu Houzhao several times, all of whom wanted Zhu Houzhao to take charge of the affairs of the Jiaofangsi.
It is urgent to recruit musicians and build troupes in various counties. His Majesty has already allocated money and everything is ready to go.
But now the Jiaofangsi is under the control of Zhenguo Mansion, so naturally he needs His Royal Highness to come up with an idea in person. If not, you can make a rubber stamp.
Where is your seal?
After urging him several times, Zhu Houzhao came late, but looked angry. When he arrived at Zhenguo Mansion, he saw Fang Jifan sitting and drinking tea, while seven or eight officials from the Jiafangsi stood up.
The leader of the Jiaofang Si Fengluan, a ninth-rank official, was extremely excited when he saw the prince, and subconsciously knelt down. The other officials such as Shaowu, Sile and others became even worse and bowed down one after another.
Only the new Yousi Le Wu Jiawang did not rush to kneel down. After all, he had seen the world, and at the beginning... it was Hanlin.
In this way, he appears to be ahead of his own.
So Zhu Houzhao noticed Wu Jiawang and frowned and said, "Everyone has knelt down, why don't you kneel?"
Wu Jiawang felt that he was different from others, and there was no look of fear on his face, but talked freely: "Your Highness, there is something in the Book of Rites..."
He said halfway, but his Shangguan Fengluan was anxious. He looked up and stared at him angrily, shouting: "What kind of rituals do you think the rituals are in the rituals? What do you think the rituals are in the rituals? The only rituals are in charge of the rituals. We are in charge of the rituals. What are the rituals for? In front of the Prince's Hall, you are just a ritual. Is there any part of your speaking here? Bastard, kneel down!"
These words almost pointed at the nose and cursed people.
But, this indifferent Fengluan was scolding his subordinate.
Hanlin has the rules of Hanlin, and Hanlin needs to show his character, so if he becomes Hanlin, he can always stand out from time to time.
But when you arrive at Jiaofangsi, what are you? The rule here is to meet anyone. As long as he is still an official, you have to laugh with him, wishing you could hold someone's legs and call him "Master". No matter what official you are, your official rank is lower than others, you talk big and show your character. Have you taken the wrong medicine?
But for Wu Jiawang, this was a great humiliation. He glanced at his Shangguan Fengluan and wanted to say something, but several other colleagues followed suit and they were anxious.
Zuo Shaowu also said sternly: "What are you doing while standing? Kneel down, it's so stupid."
Zhu Houzhao listened to them attacking each other, but found it interesting and did not interrupt. She looked at Le quietly with Fang Jifan.
Wu Jiawang felt so aggrieved that he was about to cry. He sniffed, and finally buried his head, bowing with shame and anger.
When Fengluan saw him kneeling down, he breathed a sigh of relief and said to Zhu Houzhao and Fang Jifan with a flattering smile: "Your Highness, Duke of Qi, this Si Le is new to you. I don't understand many rules very well. Please don't blame Your Highness and Duke of Qi."
Zhu Houzhao nodded and said kindly: "I am not surprised, what's wrong with me? I am angry with a Si Le?"
"Yes, yes, yes..." Fengluan was so happy that he almost danced: "Your Highness is so wise. You have such a large number of people, so that the lower officials can see your nobles and the Duke of Qi. This is a blessing in my three lives."
As he said that, he had red eyes, cried, and said choking, "If my father knew about it, I don't know how happy he was, my father... You died early. If you died a few years later, you will see your child today... I saw His Royal Highness and Duke Qi..."
Fang Jifan sat there, his body was shocked, and he said in his heart that this mere Fengluan actually had unique skills. Fang Jifan finally underestimated the heroes of the world.
When Zhu Houzhao saw that he was about to cry, she became unhappy and cursed impatiently: "Why are you crying? When you say this, the good things become lustful, as if there is a ghost coming, stop talking."
"Yes, yes, the lower lord just can't help himself. Don't blame the prince."
Wu Jiawang looked at his Shangguan sadly, silently continued to kneel, and buried his head, he wanted to die...
Immediately afterwards, the selection of the troupe was held.
There are many people in the world who have fun.
Now people will be selected from the musicians. How to establish theater troupes in various prefectures, how to arrange operas, and how to perform performances are all urgently needed at the moment.
In fact, Fang Jifan is ready.
What Zhu Houzhao had to do was to be the prince and Duke Zhenguo, and just agree one by one. The others were left to Fengluan, Shaowu and Si Le.
Of course, Zhu Houzhao must warn them: "This is what the father has told me, and there will be a Beijing inspector who will focus on you. If things are not done well, or they may dare to commit favoritism and fraud in it, don't blame me for peeling your skin. You know, my ancestors are the best at this."
Fengluan was so scared that his face turned green and hurriedly said, "I dare not, I dare not. Everything is followed by His Highness the Crown Prince and the Qi Dan. The officials are just doing mixed work for His Highness and the Qi Duke. As long as it is the instructions of His Highness and the Qi Duke, we can do our best. What are the officials? They are dogs. They have no other strengths, they are obedient."
As he said that, he raised his face and showed a flattering smile.
Zhu Houzhao was stunned when he said it, and could not make any mistakes at all. Finally, Zhu Houzhao had to utter an impatient word: "Get out!"
Fengluan was not panicked when he heard this, but instead led his assistants out happily.
Zhu Houzhao was still a little overwhelmed and was silent for a long time before the other party said, "How come these officials are different from those of ordinary officials."
"This is an inequality official." Fang Jifan said: "Any officials in the capital are of higher rank than them, and they can pinch their fingers to death. Besides, those who manage music are already humble. No matter whether they are civil or military or turbid, they will not be attracted to them. If they do not know how to observe their words and expressions, they will die long ago without a place to bury them, so... they are the most smooth."
Zhu Houzhao was happy: "If everyone is like this, I will be worry-free. Lao Fang, is the matter done? After that, I have to go back and fiddle with the test field. Several test fields have been damaged by insects. This is not careless, so I have to remove the insects."
