Chapter eight hundred and ninety-eight: the art of the emperor(1/2)

Chang Wei always worrys about the construction period. Novel.

It is cold and the cement concrete cannot be paved at all, so the only roadbed is connected. Now, countless craftsmen and laborers have returned to their hometowns for the New Year and will only come back after the spring is coming. However, Chang Wei and others stayed. They have to guard the construction site and have to patrol these foundation-building and widening roads again.

This is the first and true path in the Ming Dynasty.

Even if it is just a simple civil engineering project, behind this seemingly simple is the hard work of countless people.

After a few sips of wine, my whole body felt hot.

Anthracites burned in the charcoal basin, emitting a bright light of flames.

It was getting darker and more than a dozen people sat on the kang. When I first entered school, the young man with a strong spirit and fair face now has dark skin and unkempt appearance.

"It's so cold, but unfortunately it's the Chinese New Year, and there's no football match recently." Chang Wei laughed: "I'm so lucky. I'll lose whatever I buy. I heard that Mr. Zhu Dashou made three predictions in a row and both of them won. Even if it was not the time, it was really luck. The opponent tied with a penalty kick."

"Who is Zhu Dashou coming? Why is it so mysterious?"

Someone frowned: "Can you... be the master..."

After saying this... everyone's body was shocked.

yes.

Who else in the world has this talent?

Except for the master, who dares to call himself Zhu Dashou?

In fact, there are indeed such rumors in the market, because Zhu Dashou's identity is too mysterious.

"I think the tenth one is the master. The master is the master who can do everything."

A group of guys mentioned their master's master and their eyes shone.

Is there anyone in the world who is better than his master?

Not.

If you support the world, be full of talents, establish new schools, build academies, create magical weapons, build new cities, and write works, and take out any disciple and throw them outside. They are all capable ministers and talented men.

"If it is a master, it would be terrible." One person said, "But even if it is Zhu Dashou, this is nothing. What I admire most is the master's character who is not afraid of the cold, proud of the frost and snow, and is tenacious, like a green pine."

…………

Outside the shed.

Someone's body was shocked.

There was heavy snow in my ears, but when I heard the word "green pine", someone's heart suddenly became warm.

Fang Jifan was dressed in a fashionable state and was wrapped tightly.

Standing before him was Emperor Hongzhi in fur clothes.

Emperor Hongzhi came because he learned that there were still students who had been working on the New Year and built a foundation here. Emperor Hongzhi was very moved.

Fang Jifan said in front of him that it was really hard for these people to celebrate the New Year.

Emperor Hongzhi seemed to be thinking, but he came here at this moment.

This time, it's not a misfortune.

Behind him were the eunuchs of the Silijian, the Hanlin attendant on duty, and the commander of the Jinwu Guard. As for other eunuchs and imperial guards, there is no need to say anything about it.

Everyone stood outside the door in the wind and snow, their faces froze, and they all looked up at Emperor Hongzhi.

Emperor Hongzhi coughed and felt the chill. His face turned slightly blue. When he heard someone inside that Zhu Dashou was Fang Jifan, he looked at Fang Jifan with a meaningful look.

Fang Jifan looked speechless and immediately made an expression that I didn’t have, not me, they were talking nonsense.

Emperor Hongzhi smiled and pushed open the wooden door.

The whistling wind poured in.

Emperor Hongzhi looked around and saw more than a dozen students sitting in a mess, either holding their sleeves with their backs or lying on the kang. In the shed, there was a broken table with wine and scattered drawings.

When everyone saw a stranger coming in, they looked carefully and saw that under the fashion of this person, there was a bright red court uniform, and the five-clawed golden dragon was instantly dazzling.

Everyone looked surprised.

Let’s look at the person standing next to him... Isn’t it who the master Fang Jifan is?

More than a dozen students seemed to be petrified.

Emperor Hongzhi stepped in, with his hands behind his back, and said lightly: "No need to be too polite."

This is called taking preemptively.

As soon as he said there was no need to be too polite, Chang Wei and a few were scared to bow down in a hurry. Emperor Hongzhi waved his sleeves and said with a smile: "It's so cold today. As he said that, he sat on the kang near the charcoal basin. He picked up a drawing on the table. After carefully reading it, it was densely packed inside, full of drawings and numbers, and I couldn't understand it.

Chang Wei and others knelt down: "I have met Your Majesty and Master."

Fang Jifan smiled and said, "Your Majesty is here to visit you. Don't be too polite. Your Majesty has a very good personality. Let's get up."

Chang Wei and others became trembling.

Emperor Hongzhi had put down the drawings. He looked up and said that outside the wood gate, countless eunuchs, officials and guards were still in the cold wind.

It’s a pity that this place is small and cannot accommodate more people.

Emperor Hongzhi sighed: "It's really not easy. A road that needs to be built has so many people's efforts. I am in the palace and walking on the asphalt road. I don't think anything. When I see you here today, I realize that this is the result of countless people's hard work."

The students were all afraid to speak.

Emperor Hongzhi smiled and said, "The Ming Dynasty is a house, and under the house is the cornerstone. No matter how glamorous someone is, he is still on this cornerstone. Are you... all scholars?"

Fang Jifan shouted at them: "Reply and answer carefully."

It was a little hurry, and Fang Jifan didn't even have time to ask them to prepare. Now he was very worried that these guys had said the wrong thing.

Chang Wei bowed and kowtowed: "Report to Your Majesty, students, etc., are all scholars."

Emperor Hongzhi smiled and said, "But why... learn this study of building bridges and paving roads?"

Chang Wei and others don’t know what to say.

After a long time, someone said, "In this world, there must be someone to study. Students... If they fail to study, what's the point of learning this method of building bridges and paving roads?"

"What a good person in this world, there will always be someone to build bridges and pave the way." Emperor Hongzhi was amused: "What you said is the simplest, but also the most touching. Your master and your mentors have been promoting their new learning with your mentors all day long. Similarly, simple, practice and conscience. In my opinion, you have done it, which is amazing."

Emperor Hongzhi lowered his head and saw the wine on the table. He smiled and said, "You still drink? Drinking can keep the cold, good, good."

As he said that, he picked up the wine bag and opened the plug...

Fang Jifan was a little confused when he saw it.

What does it mean... Your Majesty also needs to practice empathy. Take a sip and show that you are having fun with the people?

Damn...

"His Majesty……"

Fang Jifan just spoke.

As expected, Emperor Hongzhi pointed at the bottle mouth and poured a large mouthful of wine into his stomach...

"..." Fang Jifan's eyes widened, and he looked at Emperor Hongzhi.

Emperor Hongzhi's face turned red suddenly.

"Your Majesty, this is..."

Fang Jifan was stuttering, what did he want to say?

But then, he had nothing to say.

This wine...is different from other wines.

It is brewed by a winery in Xishan.

How to say it, in this era, most of them were rice wine or fruit wine. Generally speaking, the alcohol content was relatively low. It was quite refreshing to drink it. It could reach seven or eight degrees, which was considered good.

So... the ancients often said that drinking big bowls of wine.

We, Fang Jifan, dare to use a big bowl even if we drink beer.

However...the wine from Xishan... was made by Fang Jifan's "Erguotou" after he specially ordered people to improve the craftsmanship.

The degree is over forty, even if you take a sip, you will feel hot and enter your throat, and feel a ball of fire.

But your Majesty...

Emperor Hongzhi opened his eyes wide and his eyes were red.

This is not a ball of fire, but there is almost a burning fire that will burn itself.

My throat suddenly felt aching, and my stomach was like a hot pot...boiled...

He looked confused... his face turned bloody and wanted to cover his throat and screamed a few times, but he was the emperor, but he could not use his willpower to resist desperately.

Emperor Hongzhi sat silently for a long time... without saying a word.

Chang Wei and others were also shocked. They were so shocked. Your Majesty has a good drinker. Erguotou turned out to be like this way of drinking...

Fang Jifan had decided to give up treatment. His Majesty sat there and had to let him ease it. Should he say something and cover up His Majesty?
To be continued...
