Chapter 158 Hongzhi Hunting

Yan Mansion,

Wang Busui came to see Yan Chengjin.

"Young Master, Chaoxian's envoy said, I want to visit Mr. Chuanshi for a lot of money, do you see?"

The envoy seemed to be very interested in the culture of the Ming Dynasty, especially the envoys who bought all the books of Mr. Chuanshi, Qingshan Jun and Yingke Song.

I came to Lao Wang's study early this morning and wanted to visit Mr. Chuanshi.

After discussing for half a day, he was unsure of his mind, so he came to ask Yan Chengjin for instructions.

Yan Chengjin thought for a moment.

Chaoxian Envoy wanted to meet Mr. Shuoshi, either to buy and take him into Qianxian's nationality or to be his disciple.

"How much money is given?"

"Give the villain one hundred taels, and when you really see Mr. Shuoshi, you will add another hundred taels."

"You ask Lord Wang."

This envoy is probably not as rich as Wang Yue. Wang Yue looked down on Chaoxian's envoy, so he simply let Wang Busui earn 100 taels of silver.

A few days before the Hongzhi hunting, the court asked the envoys to live in the Honglu Temple and arranged to go to the palace to meet the emperor one by one.

Today, the capital is relatively chaotic. When you walk on the street, you can see the envoys. Yan Chengjin doesn't go out.

Xu Yong, the commander of the Five Cities Military Command, took special care of Yan Chengjin, so he specially sent more people to patrol the West District.

Zhou Yu's store,

Zhou Yu invited many envoys to the mansion to discuss business. This was the second wave, and there were many objects in the main hall.

There are raw silk, colorful silk, tea industry, rice, antiques, calligraphy and paintings.

Last night, I traded a large number of raw silk with the Hami envoys. These envoys were purchased by the royal family and made great efforts.

Especially interested in silk and porcelain.

Zhou Yu had a workshop in Jiangnan, specializing in the production of Doucai porcelain.

This kind of porcelain is shiny, beautiful in color, fresh and elegant.

Not many years after he came out, he was very popular with Franji and Hu people.

Hami made the node nod: "How many of my uncles have, we want a thousand pieces."

"If you want one thousand, you dare to ask me how many I have. I thought you wanted five thousand." Zhou Yu had a dark face.

"What is this?" Annan asked in a fluent voice.

Zhou Yu walked over and said with a smile: "This is a black medicine in Yunnan, and it stops when blood is seen. My lord knows that you Annan often fights, so you can get a cheaper price for you, twenty taels per ounce."

The face of Annan's envoy changed continuously. He was not a fool, he would cost ten taels of silver at this little.

Seeing that he didn't believe it, Zhou Yu asked the butler to bring a knife, cut it, sprinkled a little powder from Yunnan black medicine, and the blood stopped immediately.

The envoys watched it one after another and were very interested.

Fengtian Palace,

As soon as the envoy of Siam left, Mou Bin walked up and said, "Your Majesty, I have important matters to report, and the envoys are purchasing in the capital."

Emperor Hongzhi submitted a memorial: "Let them purchase it."

"But... Changning Bo invited many envoys and even sold Yunnan black medicine to them."

Emperor Hongzhi frowned. Yunnan black medicine has miraculous effects on iron wounds. If we march in the future and use it on our Ming Dynasty, what should we do?

"Transfer my will and take Changning Bo into the palace!"

Mou Bin quickly left the palace and took Zhou Yu into the palace. Zhou Yu didn't know what crime he had committed, and some complained: "I don't know that Your Majesty summoned me..."

"Bold! Who allows you to sell Yunnan black medicine!"

Emperor Hongzhi roared.

Zhou Yu shivered: "This thing is not an arms or a controlled item. I think it can be sold..."

"You sold the prescription?"

"I have never taught people how to fish, but I don't teach people how to fish. How could I not understand this principle?" Zhou Yu said honestly. He sold the prescription, and who would ask him to buy it in the future? He would not do such a stupid thing.

When Emperor Hongzhi heard this, his anger gradually subsided, "I will pass on my will. In the future, this item is equivalent to weapons, and no one will be allowed to sell it to foreign countries."

Zhou Yu was embarrassed: "But I have already collected their money..."

Emperor Hongzhi had a stern face: "Do you want me to beat you up and return the money, or go back now?"

"I'm going to refund the money!"

Three days passed without any trouble.

After waiting for a month of hunting, it is finally about to begin!

Today, Emperor Hongzhi was a little nervous and got up early, and the cabinet minister entered the palace at the time of Mao.

Yan Chengjin was also a little nervous.

After all, I haven't even organized class activities, so I'm just going to have such a big deal for the first time.

Emperor Hongzhi wore a dragon robe and a purple-gold winged crown on his head, preparing to go to Shijingshan with envoys from various countries.

Yan Chengjin was wearing official uniforms today. As the Beijing Army Supervisor, he did not enter the palace and went to Shijingshan first.

Layer ambushing in Shijingshan.

First there was the Jinyiwei, then the Wucheng Military Command, and finally the Dongchang Factory Guard. Today, they all followed Yan Chengjin's orders.

Yan Chengjin ordered the archer to ambush the surrounding mountains.

In a blink of an eye, it was all people...

Xu Yong looked strange: "Sir, are you too cautious? With the army in the Beijing camp here, who dares to be unfavorable to Your Majesty?"

Yan Chengjin nodded.

With so many people ambushed, I am not afraid of any trouble.

Emperor Hongzhi's carriage drove the guard of honor to Shijingshan, with envoys and ministers following behind.

The envoys were not optimistic about this hunt in the Ming Dynasty.

During the Yongle period, the Ming Dynasty had the greatest military strength and all countries came to pay tribute. Therefore, Emperor Yongle had the confidence to hold a military parade.

The current Hongzhi Dynasty's military strength is far inferior to that of the Yongle Dynasty, and even the Tatars cannot win.

The Tatar envoys Mandu Lai, as well as the vassal states such as Annan and Tufan, did not know what the Ming emperor intended, so he even sent an invitation to them and came to see the joke.

A high platform is built on the flat ground of Shijing Mountain for Emperor Hongzhi and the envoys to watch.

Zhu Houzhao's eyes scanned around, looking for Yan Chengjin's figure. Today, he failed to escape from the palace, otherwise he would have arrived in Shijingshan.

I saw that guy Lao Gao running over happily.

"My minister Yan Chengjin, please see Your Majesty!"

Emperor Hongzhi nodded with a smile: "Start, where am I sitting? The envoys should also be treated well."

"Your Majesty's imperial throne is on the platform, and the seats of the dukes and envoys are also on the platform. However, in order to have a better experience of watching the ceremony, please ask Your Majesty and envoys to do one thing first." Yan Chengjin said.

Emperor Hongzhi looked surprised and nodded.

Yan Chengjin and his group came to the high wall: "This high wall is made according to the specifications of the city wall. Please ask Your Majesty to kick it hard."

Emperor Hongzhi was stunned.

Is this because I want my dragon feet to be consecrated?

Zhu Houzhao was also confused, blinked her eyes and looked at the wall in front of her.

Isn’t this wall just built by Lao Gao, a guy who was specially built by the Tung Field Camp? It turned out to be used to kick it.

"I'm here to kick!"

Emperor Hongzhi glared at Zhu Houzhao, raised his foot himself, kicked it hard on the wall, and his toes hurt: "Yan Qing family, is this possible?"

Yan Chengjin nodded: "I thank Your Majesty for giving you foot on this wall. I also ask all the envoys to kick it."

The envoys from various countries looked at each other, and they had just circled around the wall, which was an ordinary city wall, with nothing special.

Kick...

More than a dozen envoys raised their feet and kicked them up on the wall.

The envoys of the Tatars were full of their hearts and kicked them very hard, wishing they could kick the wall down.

But he was tired of kicking his ankles, and he didn't move even though he had a little powder removed.

The envoys had a dark face and had no idea of ​​having someone kick the wall first.

After all the envoys were finished kicking, Yan Chengjin said to Li Dongyang and others: "Please kick me too."

The ministers cooperated a lot. After all, this was their own family's business. Even if there were complaints, they could not be revealed in front of the envoys, and they all left footprints of their travels on the wall.

Although Yan Chengjin did not ask Zhu Houzhao to kick, Zhu Houzhao was very conscious and kicked again and again until Yan Chengjin shouted: "Your Highness, Your Highness? It's enough, hurry up and take a seat on the platform."
