I, Zhu Youjian: the first prodigal son of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 228 On the cultivation of a cowardly...

There are two kinds of imperial seals, one is the national seal, and the other is the private seal, which is called Jinyinlongli, or Jinyinlongbutton;
The crown prince used gold-sealed tortoise buttons, princes and kings used gold-sealed Luo buttons, officials with more than [-] shi used silver-sealed tortoise buttons, and officials with more than [-] shi used copper-sealed nose buttons...

After hearing the reminder from the middle-aged scholar, Zhu Youjian suddenly realized.

It seems that if you want to walk in the rivers and lakes in the future, you must first hide these two things close to your body, and you can't hang them on your waist so brightly, and let some 'intellectuals' with ulterior motives get fooled.

"I like you as a scholar." In a small tavern, Zhu Youjian looked at the down-and-out scholar who was wolfing down the opposite, and asked with a smile, "I haven't asked your name yet."

"My name is Xu Xiake." The scholar looked famished, and ate two plates of mutton, one plate of peanuts, and seven or eight pancakes in one go.

"You are Xu Xiake?"

Zhu Youjian was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "What's the matter with your Songhu Xu family, the poor are poor, the rich are rich, why can't you even have a bite of food?"

Isn't the Xu family in Songhu the same as Xu Guangqi's family?
Zhu Youjian has a deep understanding of the wealthy Xu family in Songhu, and he cannot say that the wealth is incomparable, but it seems that there is no major problem in buying all the land in one or two provinces.

What particularly interested him was the overseas business of the Xu family...

Silk, tea, porcelain, firearms, food, what makes the most money, if you go to the Jiangnan area to investigate, you will definitely have the shadow of the Xu family in Songhu.

Even, Zhu Youjian had done a rough calculation, and the wealth of the Xu family was likely to exceed that of Zheng Zhilong, King of Zhenhai.

Such a behemoth, as Xu Xiake of the direct lineage, how could he be so poor?
In his impression, Xu Xiake is a rich master.

Out of pocket, traveling around the world, writing a book of Xu Xiake's travel notes, how many Chinese children were still crying and reciting texts in the middle of the night...

"Oh, my family is unlucky, even Xiaosheng is embarrassed to say it."

Xu Xiake ate and drank enough, drank two bowls of bad wine, and immediately revived with blood, "The main reason is that I have read too many books, and I am too good, my character is also good, and my appearance can be considered Zhouzheng..."

As soon as he opened his mouth, Zhu Youjian was stunned.

This stuff is too narcissistic.

Have you ever praised yourself so much?
"Your Majesty must know that our Songhu Xu family has always had a lot of spare money, and we also attach great importance to the education of blood children, so there are many quite good scholars.

I'm a scholar, and I have no interest in official examinations. My biggest hobby is to travel to famous mountains and rivers in the world.

In the end, something went wrong. "

Xu Xiake stood up, respectfully filled the idiot emperor with a bowl of bad wine, and said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty entertained you so generously, but Xiaosheng was penniless, so he couldn't return His Majesty's invitation. I was so ashamed when I was young..."

"Continue to tell your story," Zhu Youjian waved his hands and said with a smile: "I don't like those red tapes, getting along with Mr., talking about everything in this tavern, I feel very comfortable."

"Tell me, what happened?"

Xu Xiake suddenly sighed, and said: "Isn't it because my appearance is too outstanding, my talent is too amazing, and my family's wealth is too rich, which caused a disaster."

Zhu Youjian: "..."

Well, this time around, your surname Xu pretended to be mellow.

"Xiaosheng is located in the south of the Yangtze River and north of the Yangtze River. There are seven or eight properties in total, each of which has more than a dozen wives and concubines. This matter is not allowed in the law of the Ming Dynasty, but Xiaosheng has no choice.

Those women with a little bit of talent, the ladies of the family, tried every means to make a side room for Xiaosheng, and claimed that if Xiaosheng refused this marriage, they would die for love.

Your Majesty does not know that once this daughter's family wants to marry you, ten buffaloes will not be able to turn back..."

As he talked, Xu Xiake seemed a little depressed, so he picked up half a bowl of leftover wine and drank it down in one gulp.

He wiped his wet mouth casually with the back of his hand, and said with a wry smile: "As a result, there are more than 100 wives and concubines in Xiaosheng's family."

"For convenience, Xiaosheng gathered all his wives and concubines in his hometown in Songhu, and built a big garden, thinking that they could study, learn how to work as women workers, and give my Xu family more children if necessary.

Unexpectedly, those wives and concubines!
Oh, it's really hard to describe..."

Zhu Youjian picked up a bowl of wine and drank it up silently, and began to mutter in his heart: "This Xu Xiake, but he has married a hundred wives and concubines at home, and he is tossed like this. He would rather live in the rivers and lakes than return to his hometown in Songhu."

I marry ten thousand harem concubines...'

Think carefully!

This Xu Xiake was different from the Ming scholars he had imagined, and felt more like a lackluster bastard.

In front of the emperor, it was said that these parents were short-sighted. If they hadn't met the idiot emperor Zhu Youjian, they would have been able to shed a layer of skin on the Xu family in Songhu by pretending to be sick.

"A large group of wives and concubines stay in their hometown in Songhu, aren't you afraid that something will happen to them?" Zhu Youjian asked with a smile.

"An accident? Hehe, even if an accident happens to me, nothing will happen to them."

Xu Xiake was a little drunk, and said vaguely: "Your Majesty doesn't know, what is the most fearful thing for this woman to get together? Yes, the most fearful thing is loneliness and coldness.

but……

people!

Cough, everyone is better at playing than one, Your Majesty.

When I was a daughter back then, she played piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, played and sang, and was a popular book reader.

As a result, they have only been married for three to five years, and they are married!
They have fallen, Your Majesty..."

Looking at Xu Xiake with a face full of wind and frost, the idiot emperor's heart has already begun to make up his mind:
In the "Grand View Garden" of the rich man's house, there lived a hundred ladies of great families, each of them guarding the vacant room alone, staring at the moon in a daze, watching the flowers and weeping, secretly yearning for Xu Xiake, his beloved who is far away by the side of the pond...

The life of the rich in Ming Dynasty was so low-key, boring and ordinary.

"I'll give you some money, go back to your hometown to visit them, and then find a way to get out." Zhu Youjian reached into his arms, and was about to take out a few bags of Daming gold coins as gifts.

Unexpectedly, Xu Xiake's expression changed drastically.

"Your Majesty, no!"

"Please Your Majesty spare my life!"

Zhu Youjian: "..."

Why does it seem like I want to send you to hell for the money I gave you to go home?
"Your Majesty doesn't know that Xiaosheng, Xiaosheng really can't stand those more than 100 wives and concubines, so he spent a lot of money and bought me off from the garden..."

This is all a mess, and it's spending money to buy off the Juggernaut...

No, Juggernaut?
Zhu Youjian's eyes lit up. Could it be that there are really peerless masters in this world?It is best to have someone who cultivates immortals and learns Taoism, so that I can live up to the name of 'Zhu Jiao'.

"Who is the Juggernaut?"

"The Juggernaut is the Juggernaut, he has no name, and not many people in the world know of his existence," Xu Xiake sighed, "Among my wives and concubines, there are mostly daughters of high-ranking people in the world, as well as daughters of scholarly families.

I thought that it would be enough to study in the garden and have children.

but!

they!

Oops, so good at playing.

Xiaosheng, I really can't bear it anymore, Your Majesty..."

Listening to Xu Xiake's drunken words, Zhu Youjian had another brainstorm——

Hundreds of wives and concubines are like the grieving wives in the boudoir. Once Xu Xiake returns to the garden, there will be a large-scale bloody conflict. The women pick their faces and hair, and all of them want to play poker with Xu Xiake...

"You bastard, your body is weak." Zhu Youjian laughed loudly, and said, "You have to practice martial arts and improve your health, so that you can be like a fish in water at home and command the armed forces!"

Xu Xiake poured himself a drink, and drank three or four bowls of bad wine.

He raised his head with drunken eyes, and said in a harsh voice: "Your Majesty has misunderstood, what Xiaosheng is most proud of is his donkey-like physical strength and business!
The thing is, they, they don't play with me at all. "

Zhu Youjian poked his eyes silently.

He is a majestic emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and spent most of the night talking nonsense with a drunkard in a tavern in this slum area. If word of this gets out, how can he continue to pretend...

This guy Xu Xiake is not as glorious as he appears in the text.

Instead, it's more like an LSP.

"Tell me carefully, why don't they play with you?"

"Because they play by themselves."

"Can you still play by yourself? This is too much."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"I heard that it was invented by the current Long Live God..."

"I invented it? I, I will never invent it!"

"Really, Your Majesty, I asked my uncle Xu Guangqi about it, and it was indeed made by His Majesty."

"Xu Guangqi, this is wronging a good man!"

Zhu Youjian was a little annoyed at the moment, you Xu Guangqi, I regard you as a big brother, but you spread rumors to discredit me...

No, Xu Guangqi is not that kind of person.

Among them, there must be some misunderstanding.

"Mr. Xu, just tell the truth, which toys were invented and made by me?" Zhu Youjian asked with a forced smile.

"Several kinds," Xu Xiake said vaguely: "Playing cards, mahjong, Niu Jiu, digging pits, fighting the landlord..."

Zhu Youjian: "..."

Uncle, I was shocked.

It turns out that Xu Xiake said that his more than 100 wives and concubines played by themselves, not by themselves, but by those Chinese quintessence!
Then it will be fine.

"What does that have to do with your being in the rivers and lakes?" Zhu Youjian continued to ask.

"They played cards and drank, used the lonely books I collected so hard to stand on the table legs, and used the ancient books, calligraphy and paintings I collected as chips..."

"Not only that, but they also got along with my old mother, aunt, and sister-in-law. You don't know, the sound of clattering mahjong can be heard for twenty or thirty miles.

When you go to the Songhu area, you don't need to ask where Xu Xiake's garden is.

Follow the sound of mahjong all the way, go straight ahead, you can't go wrong! "

Zhu Youjian suddenly smiled.

lol.

This Xu Xiake, you deserve it, who made you marry so many wives!
Tired of you!
The idiot emperor laughed, which made Xu Xiake suddenly wake up.

The [-]% to [-]% drunkenness suddenly decreased by [-] to [-]%.

In front of the emperor, he babbled like this for most of the night, full of useless nonsense, which was simply a crime of deceiving the emperor.

Xu Xiake stood up staggeringly, and was about to bow down to apologize, but Zhu Youjian stretched out his hand and pushed him back on the stool.

"What I see and hear every day are all high-sounding big talk and nonsense, it's rare to have a guy like you who can accompany me to tell the truth in the middle of the night, commonplace.

Xu Xiake, I am very grateful.

You let me laugh a few times happily, and I feel sorry if I don't reward you with anything.

Tell me, what reward do you want?
Do you want an official or money?Still want beautiful women? "

Xu Xiake shivered violently, with a look of panic on his face, he waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Your Majesty, your Majesty must not reward Xiaosheng for these three things. When Xiaosheng hears about money, officials and beauties, he feels a little panicked.

Especially beautiful women, I absolutely dare not ask for it anymore..."

Zhu Youjian laughed loudly, and said: "You guys are boring, I have more of these three things than you, but I still flock to them, I don't like them.

You, you still lack some means. "

Xu Xiake was in a daze for a while.

There is nothing wrong with ordinary people saying this kind of thing.

However, if you speak like this when you are an emperor, you will lose your dignity.

"Your Majesty, Xiaosheng..."

"Don't talk about it, these three things, I will reward you!" Zhu Youjian pondered a few times, and said calmly: "I will grant you a marquis of mountains and rivers, instead of visiting famous mountains and rivers in the world;

You might as well write down what you saw and heard along the way, verbatim, and then let me read a little or two at any time through Jinyiwei's Feige transmission channel, which can be regarded as a relief.

In addition, I won't give you more coins. Your Songhu Xu family does not lack that little money. However, you should not refuse my little care;

Is the activity fund of 100 million Daming gold coins enough to spend every year?

If it's not enough, I will increase your budget at any time.

As long as you write "Xu Xiake's Travel Notes" well, I'm still willing to invest in you..."

Ah, comfortable!

It was when these words came out that Zhu Youjian heard a long-lost [Ding! 】

[730 prodigal value arrives! 】

No, I stayed up most of the night, how can I be so worthless?
It seems that my reward posture is wrong.

"You, after all, are a scholar. When you travel the rivers and lakes and visit famous mountains and rivers, there are many wolves, insects, tigers and leopards that will hurt your husband's life. Therefore, I plan to form a group for you.

Well, organize a group to investigate the world.

There must be some martial arts masters, and some people who can draw maps. By the way, there must be some local customs and customs investigation researchers;
None of this works?

Then add some scammers?
Add some scientific explorers?
Add some people who sell iron and sell mules and horses?
Add some geological prospecting, drilling miners? "

【Ding! 】

[[-] million, [-], [-] prodigal points arrive in the account! 】

[Do you want to upgrade? 】

Finally got it right...

It turns out that this system can still be stuck with BUG?This is too cool.

Zhu Youjian laughed loudly, picked up a jug of wine, and poured down two or three catties, two blooming chrysanthemums would appear on his face.

Xu Xiake, who was sitting across from him, was stunned.

Your Majesty the Emperor, is there something wrong with his brain?
