Chapter 9: Summoning from Zhu Yuanzhang
With Zhu Biao's rescue, Zhu Di was able to escape. In the next few days, he was not harassed again. In addition, the vassal kings guarding the border from various places also arrived one after another, so naturally the spearhead in the court would not be there.
Only facing him.
These days, Chen Yunfu has been following Yao Guangxiao step by step, and he has not found that the latter has any plans to get close to Zhu Di. This discovery not only confused Chen Yunfu.
Is it possible that my time travel has created a butterfly effect?
No, if that were to be the case, wouldn't it be a disservice to myself?
It is important for people to be self-aware, and Chen Yunfu certainly knew in his heart that without Yao Guangxiao, it would be unrealistic for him to get into Zhu Laosi's eyes in this life.
He is just a little monk with nothing, but he is already the King of Yan who is brave enough to conquer the three armies and fight on the battlefield.
As for not following Zhu Di and Zhu Biao?
I'm even less interested in the latter. Just kidding, what kind of characters are around Zhu Biao.
The prince's young master is Li Shanchang, and the prince's young master is Xu Da.
Both the civil and military central teams were arranged by Zhu Yuanzhang to be around Zhu Biao. Zhu Biao would make Zhu Di jealous even if he randomly picked up a temporary talent from Zhan Shifu.
They are not of the same magnitude at all.
Thinking about it this way, Chen Yunfu seemed to understand why Yao Guangxiao voted for Zhu Di instead of Zhu Biao.
I'm afraid it wasn't because he saw that Zhu Biao had the appearance of dying young, but because Zhu Biao simply didn't like him, Yao Guangxiao.
What's the use of being proficient in the three teachings and understanding the universe.
Zhu Biao is a prince, straight-faced, open-minded and generous. He is running for the throne. He needs talents who can govern the country with literary skills and military skills to stabilize the country, but do not need magic sticks.
The fifteen-day wake period was over. Thank God, Zhu Yuanzhang did not issue an order to extend the time this time. Hundreds of eunuchs entered the Jiyan Hall and began to clean up and prepare for the work of sending out the spirit. Chen Yunfu and other monks came to chant sutras and keep the spirit.
It's time to pack up and leave.
A eunuch blocked their way.
This eunuch Chen Yunfu had a chance encounter. He was the one who stood up and shouted when Zhu Yuanzhang was patrolling Tianjie Temple.
"Several masters, your Majesty invites you."
This simple sentence made Chen Yunfu and others tremble in their hearts. Even Yao Guangxiao had a nervous look on his face.
Zhu Yuanzhang summoned?
Is it a blessing or a curse?
No one can tell for sure.
I was afraid that Lao Zhu was in a bad mood, so he called the big guys over and said, "You are traveling with the queen, and I will give you one more ride."
Then it's over.
At this moment, no one felt the joy of meeting the emperor, but only the fear of the unknown in life.
No one is excepted.
Chen Yunfu held his breath, not even daring to take a breath, and walked cautiously towards Kunning Palace with the eunuch behind him, until he stepped into Kunning Palace, which was wrapped in white cloth.
It was very cold in the palace, not because of the weather, but because of the unique desertedness due to the lack of popularity.
Just like the houses we live in, there are obvious differences between those that are inhabited and those that are unoccupied.
And this difference is human Qi.
However, Chen Yunfu was not in much mood to feel the atmosphere in the palace at this time. All his attention was on the back of a man in the palace.
The man turned his back to them and faced the wall. There was a portrait hanging there. The portrait was of a woman, with a line of small words written at the signature.
Portrait of Empress Xiaoci Xiuying.
This is a portrait of Empress Ma, so the man in front of the painting can only be Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
"Your Majesty, everyone is here."
The eunuch who led the way cautiously approached and knelt down to report at a distance of more than ten steps.
Behind him, eight monks including Chen Yunfu and Yao Guangxiao held their breaths, not daring to make the slightest noise.
The figure slowly turned around, and the face of an old, majestic man gradually became clear.
At this moment, Chen Yunfu felt relieved.
He thought Zhu Yuanzhang had the extremely ugly face popularized by unofficial historians.
Nonsense, he's obviously very handsome, okay?
The side of the face is slightly rounded, which can be considered a relatively rich face shape. Perhaps due to the lack of food and sleep in the past half month, the cheekbones and cheeks are a little thinner, which affects a certain amount of appearance, but overall it is still passable.
Think about it, Zhu Yuanzhang was nothing when he started his career. If he turned ugly again, how could Guo Zixing, a local warlord commander, marry his adopted daughter to Zhu Yuanzhang?
When Guo Zixing met Zhu Yuanzhang for the first time, he praised him for his great appearance, and he was definitely an ordinary person.
Even if it is an exaggeration, Zhu Yuanzhang is not a top handsome guy, nor can he be as ugly as the viciously circulated portrait.
Besides, from a genetic point of view, Zhu Di and Zhu Zhanji are both pretty good-looking, how could Comrade Lao Ba be so ugly?
Then why did Chen Yunfu feel relieved as soon as he saw Zhu Yuanzhang's appearance?
In a word, appearance comes from the heart.
In the ugly photos circulated in later generations, Zhu Yuanzhang gives people a sinister, vicious, and terrifying feeling at a glance. However, the Zhu Yuanzhang in front of him does not look intimidating except for his unique imperial majesty. On the contrary, because of his face
The remaining fatigue and sadness are resonant.
How can such a person be considered a murderer?
"Your Majesty, long live our emperor."
Putting aside the messy thoughts in his mind, Chen Yunfu, Yao Guangxiao and others put their hands together in a salute.
"Several masters are here, Baoxiang, show them their seats."
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, and the eunuch from before let out a sigh. Several rows of eunuchs guarding the side hall had already heard the sound and moved eight chairs over.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Thank you, several people lowered their buttocks, but they also sat cautiously, especially Chen Yunfu, who only dared to lower half of his buttocks out of habit, and even leaned his upper body forward, as if he was ready to answer a question.
This performance naturally caught Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes and made him interested.
"Oh? There is also a little master?"
Chen Yunfu stood up after hearing this and responded respectfully: "Little monk Daoming, please pay your respects to your Majesty."
"Daoming."
Zhu Yuanzhang chanted this Buddhist name several times, which made Chen Yunfu nervous. He thought it was a taboo and heard Zhu Yuanzhang speak again.
"Okay, Daoming is a good name. Is the meaning unclear? If everything in the world was explained clearly, there wouldn't be so many confusions and misunderstandings."
The eunuch named Baoxiang helped Zhu Yuanzhang sit down and said, "What the emperor said is absolutely true."
Chen Yunfu thought that Zhu Yuanzhang would still say a few words to him, but he did not expect that the latter had already looked at Yao Guangxiao.
"I heard from Master Zongyuan that your name is Daoyan and that the Dharma is very exquisite. During these fifteen days, Master Youlao will be reciting sutras for the Queen."
Yao Guangxiao also stood up and bowed.
"When the Queen was alive, she was compassionate and helpful to the world. All living beings benefited from the Queen's kindness. Now that she is gone, it is her duty to guard the mother of the country and the Son of Man. Even though the poor monk is a disciple of the Buddhist family, he always remembers the kindness of the Five Nei
, I dare not take His Majesty’s words seriously.”
"What a duty as a son of man." Zhu Yuanzhang followed the next sentence in a low tone, and then changed his voice: "What about my sons, they are keeping vigil these days, are they fulfilling their duty?"
