Chapter 451 The Real Man
The model camp set off and soon arrived at Habayashi Zuowei's camp.
This camp was stationed in the Wengcheng of the Forbidden City, which was almost separated from the Imperial City by a wall.
And here, Zhu Gaochi is very familiar with it. Zhu Di will come here often on weekdays. After all, he was born in the army, and this is the military camp closest to the palace.
But now, when they arrive here, there is something special about it.
Zhu Gaochi didn't understand what his next responsibility was.
But now he's gradually calmed down.
When a person is in the military camp, some emotions will slowly become numb and dull.
And it seems... Zhang Anshi's method also seems to be effective, although he is still strong, but obviously thinner...
It's not that he has become thinner, but it seems that the flesh on his body has begun to shrink and tighten. At least in terms of body shape, he is no longer the abnormally bloated one before.
After entering the barracks, drills are suspended today, but everyone is in their own barracks, but noise and going out are not allowed.
The military discipline in the model battalion is strict, and no order can be discounted by half a point.
But Zhu Gaochi couldn't help thinking in his heart, why is he defending here so well, what happened outside?
In just a few months, it seemed that several years had passed outside, so that to Zhu Gaochi, it seemed that many years had passed.
But the lieutenants seemed excited. After all, the boring drills were hard to bear. Now they are guarding, but it made them look forward to it.
At dawn the next day, the morning light just fell on the earth.
Zhang Anshi was about to leave, and the palace was already lit with lamps.
At this time, the two boys of the Zhang family, the youngest was only five years old, while the eldest was already seven years old.
The eldest son, Zhang Changsheng, has been lifted out of the warm blanket and started his morning class for the day.
He looked listless, but he obediently began to read poems and books.
Of course, it was impossible for Zhang Anshi to teach him to read the Four Books, but he was required to recite Tang and Song poems, and he was taught to read and write. After that, he was taught arithmetic.
The so-called encyclopedia is probably the "One Hundred Thousand Whys" compiled by Zhang Anshi, which involves a lot of military, physical and chemical knowledge, which is very superficial, but such small stories can often arouse people's interest in nature. curiosity.
Of course, this kind of encyclopedia does not stop there. It also contains various customs and customs overseas, as well as some historical stories. All in all, it is all-inclusive, but at the same time, it is not profound.
In Zhang Anshi's view, children of this age are at the time when they are most curious. Such an entertaining and educational encyclopedia can easily make children have a strong interest in certain things.
Now, they are still in the stage of generating interest, teaching difficult knowledge, but counterproductive.
But even reciting Tang poetry and Song poetry, as well as daily gymnastics, as well as learning encyclopedias and arithmetic, almost filled Zhang Changsheng's time for most of the day.
When he was eight years old, when most of these had entered the door, Zhang Anshi even felt that this guy should be allowed to study in the school.The primary school affiliated to the best official school, where the school rules are strict, just like this kid, not to mention the children at this age, who have not yet developed the concept of superiority and inferiority, and it happens to be the period when people are most treated with equal eyes. It is of great benefit to sharpen Zhang Changsheng's temper.
As a father, although Zhang Anshi is busy on weekdays, he can be regarded as arranging for his son's growth with all his heart. Although he can't do everything by himself in raising children, he is still attentive.
At this time, Zhang Changsheng recited poems aloud in his study.
And Zhang Anshi left the dormitory amidst the sound of Lang Lang's reading, he had already put on a new python robe, and went to the front hall.
Because His Majesty wants to watch the three blogs of Tatar, Wala, and Duoyan, the location of the banquet cannot be in the palace, but in the camp of the Habayashi Guard. Zhang Anshi needs to arrange it in advance at the Habayashi Guard.
When he arrived at Habayashiwei, the three brothers came.
Zhang Anshi immediately said, "What did you do to my brother-in-law?"
Zhu Yong: "..."
open:"……"
Qiu Song: "???"
Without waiting for them to say anything, Zhang Anshi said again: "Where is he? Oh... I feel sorry for my brother-in-law."
Zhu Yong finally found his own voice: "In the barracks."
After Zhang Anshi heard this, he immediately said again: "Is there no missing arm or leg?"
"No...no..." Zhu Yong was very thankful that he treated others with sincerity.
If not, offend the crown prince and offend the eldest brother, then there will be good days?
Zhang Ze's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help admiring Zhang Anshi, the eldest brother.
You really deserve to be the big brother!Always be so resourceful and never put all your eggs in one basket.When we train the prince, he feels sorry for his brother-in-law. When the prince ascends the throne in the future and wants to settle accounts with us, the eldest brother will be pardoned. At that time, the eldest brother will try to rescue or take care of our wives and children.
Zhang Anshi said: "Lead me there."
Zhang Anshi was still worried about seeing no one.
It's just that when Zhang Anshi hurried to see Zhu Gaochi, there seemed to be a flower in front of him.
"Sister...brother-in-law..." Zhang Anshi was a little uncertain.
The Zhu Gaochi in front of him had a dark complexion and was very strong. He was a different person from the prince a few months ago.
This is not because the facial features have changed, but because the whole person seems to have become another person.
If you look closely... this charm... actually resembles His Majesty.
That's right, with the same skin color, the same big arms and round waist, plus the facial features after gradually losing fat, they are so similar to His Majesty.
But in the past, why didn't it look like it at all?
It can be seen that this is not a genetic problem of His Majesty, it is purely caused by obesity.
"You still know how to come?" Zhu Gaochi shook his head, somewhat complaining about his brother-in-law.
At this time, I wanted to scold Zhang Anshi, but when the words came to my lips, I swallowed them back: "How are your elder sister and Zhu Zhanji?"
"Very good." Zhang Anshi said: "Sister-in-law misses her brother-in-law every day, and her eyes are going to cry..."
Then he lowered his voice: "I don't know what happened to the others. That's right, brother-in-law, come, let someone fetch the scale and weigh it."
The ancients weighed, especially big guys like Zhu Gaochi, but they used Cao Chong's method of weighing elephants.
So it was a bit of a waste of time, and when the final conclusion was reached, Zhang Anshi said pleasantly: "230 catties, tsk tsk... seventy catties less..."
For this number, Zhang Anshi is still very satisfied.
Zhu Gaochi said gruffly: "I don't think I've lost weight."
"230 catties is not too little." Zhang Anshi said, gently squeezed Zhu Gaochi's arm, and said: "This meat is terribly strong, and the belly is not small, but... brother-in-law looks like... like……"
"like……"
"It seems to be the same as His Majesty."
"Don't make fun of the father." Zhu Gaochi stared, and said with a straight face: "This is disrespectful."
Looking at Zhu Gaochi's expression, Zhang Anshi felt more resemblance, and said cheerfully: "Brother-in-law, you don't know anything now, if I say that brother-in-law has nothing to do with His Majesty, that would be considered disrespectful."
Zhu Gaochi: "..."
Well, there is no way to refute this, you win!
After being silent for a while, Zhu Gaochi said: "When can I go back?"
"Anytime." Zhang Anshi said sincerely: "Our model camp is not a den of thieves. Who would dare to stop brother-in-law? As long as brother-in-law is willing, he can come and go freely at any time."
Zhu Gaochi said: "Since that's the case, then I will leave the camp."
"Okay, okay, okay." Seeing the fruitful results, Zhang Anshi was in a happy mood right now.
If there is no effect at all, let alone His Majesty, even his elder sister can't explain it.
He nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and then gave Zhu Yong a wink.
Zhu Yong understood immediately, and calmly said: "The captain of the team listens to the order."
The captains in the barracks all stood still and shouted in unison: "Yes."
Zhu Yong said: "One member of the team is absent from work. From now on, this month..."
Zhu Gaochi opened his eyes slightly, subconsciously said immediately: "Forget it, I will stay in this palace for a few more days."
Zhu Yong said in embarrassment: "Your Highness, this is not good, you are a big Buddha, our temple is small..."
Zhu Gaochi is a kind person, not to mention these captains have been taking care of him for the past few months, if not for this, he would not be able to make such progress, and his body would not be able to recover so quickly.
He couldn't bear to let other people be punished for his sake now.
As for interfering with the model camp, Zhu Gaochi would not do it.
He is very clear that the general will be outside, and the king's fate will not be accepted. Anyway, he has gradually adapted to this place, and there is no hindrance if he stays for a few more days.
"Brother-in-law..." Zhang Anshi said, "How is it so good..."
Zhu Gaochi said: "You kid..." He patted Zhang Anshi's shoulder hard.
Then, Zhu Gaochi showed a sincere smile, and said: "I never expected that I would have a very energetic day today!"
This sentence is a great compliment.
The person who knows his body is good or bad is always himself.In the past, he was out of breath after walking a few steps, staggered because of his overweight body, was listless every day, and always felt uncomfortable all over his body. Zhu Gaochi knew it all too well, and this is gone forever.
At this time, a eunuch came and said: "Your Majesty is here, His Majesty's holy car is coming."
Zhang Anshi didn't dare to be negligent, he greeted Zhu Gaochi silently, then turned his head and said to Zhu Yong: "I'll go meet you, you arrange here."
With that said, Zhang Anshi walked away.
When Shengjia arrived at the camp, he was accompanied by hundreds of officials and envoys from various countries.
The banquet has already been prepared.
It was done in a big tent.
Zhu Di stepped down and led the ministers to the big tent.
Outside this big tent, there are three steps for one post and five steps for one post.
Zhu Di's gaze swept over, and one of them made Zhu Di's gaze pause for a while.
He couldn't help raising his brows slightly, the captain looked a little familiar.
But who it was, he couldn't remember for a while.
It's just that Zhu Di didn't care about these details, he just felt that this person... looked a bit like his second son Zhu Gaoxu.
Of course, how could Zhu Gaoxu appear here?
He immediately smiled and looked away. There are many similar people.
When he took his seat in the big tent, his close ministers, Oara Khan, Tatar Khan, and Duoyan Khan attended.
Countless delicacies are presented.
The emperor of the Ming Dynasty, probably because of Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, had very greasy meals.
For example, at this time, Zhu Di enshrined his imperial meals. According to the specifications, there were usually four grades of wine, burnt mutton, steamed chicken, goose with pepper and vinegar, roast pork, pork in white soup, goose for rice, three chickens, and five catties of mutton. Five catties of pork, two buckets of white japonica rice, nine catties of tea and food, ninety slices of sesame oil cakes, eight taels of sugar, one liter of red beans, and twenty catties of pears and fresh water chestnuts.
Basically, they are all big fish and big meat, extremely fatty.
If the emperor hosts a banquet, the meals will have to be added, such as fresh shrimps with pepper and vinegar, lamb head and hoof with fire, lamb tripe plate, thick kidneys, steamed fresh fish, silk goose powder soup and so on.
These meals look exquisite and delicious.
But Zhang Anshi never ate it.
In fact, the reason is very simple, because the imperial chef is hereditary, just like the imperial doctor.
If a cook is good at cooking and entered the palace during the reign of Emperor Taizu, then his son will be the imperial cook, and his grandson will also be the imperial cook.
Therefore, nobles are not used to ordinary meals in the palace, so they often add an internal dining room, so that eunuchs who are good at cooking can cook some special dishes.
So Zhu Di sat down and tasted a piece of mutton casually, and the rest of the people also laughed dryly and moved their chopsticks.
Zhang Anshi didn't even bother to pretend, he stuffed his empty chopsticks into his mouth and took a sip, which was considered exhausting.
At this time, Zhu Di said: "Hand over the Bok warriors from all ministries."
Not long after, six people entered the account, all six were quite strong, and then saluted.
Zhu Di looked at the six people, nodded his head and said: "Yes, yes, you are good guys. Let me have a look at the blogs of the six of you, and let's see who comes out on top."
The six people looked at their leader, nodded, and exited the big tent one by one.
Outside the big tent, the curtain was rolled up, and immediately after that, six warriors started to wrestle.
Zhu Di took the warm wine and tasted it carefully, and all the ministers looked happy, and the three Mongolian Khans also said some auspicious words.
It's just that their thoughts are outside the account.
Zhu Di was very interested in wrestling. Yan Wangwei, who was stationed in Beiping at the time, had a similar wrestling show. Watching the warriors outside the tent wrestling with each other, he put down his chopsticks and watched intently.
These six samurai were carefully selected. They were wrestling rather than free fighting. After defeating their opponents, they fought each other again.
Suddenly, a tense atmosphere gradually arose.
Especially at the end, the fight became more and more fierce. The warrior of Navala was so powerful that he knocked down two opponents in a row and won applause from all the halls.
At the last moment, the Vala warrior finally overturned the last person, and that person let out an "uh..." and fell down heavily.
"Okay." Zhu Dixian was extremely excited, he stood up: "This is a real man."
Oara Khan immediately smiled and said excitedly: "Your Majesty, this is Urige, a warrior from our army."
Zhu Di said, "Call him in and give him wine and meat."
For Zhu Di, inviting these people to blog not only stems from his own interest in wrestling, but on the other hand, it is also a sign of the surrender of the ministries to him.
This man named Wuzhige came in, bowed down, and Zhu Di asked someone to take a catty of meat.
He grabbed it with his hands and ate it in front of the monarchs and ministers.
Zhu Di said: "Come here, give him a gold belt and gold and silver."
Wuzhige seemed to know some Chinese, so he stammered and replied in Chinese: "Your Majesty's gift, I am grateful to you. I know that Ming is best at firearms, but I don't know about this Bok. Does Daming have warriors, or can we compete with each other?" .”
The Oirats are nomadic in the desert all the year round and are not good at eloquence.
It may be because this man won a great victory, so he couldn't help feeling proud. At this time, he wanted the emperor to see how powerful he was as an Oirat warrior, so he hoped to have a few more opponents to show off his skills.
As everyone knows, this sentence made the atmosphere in the big tent suddenly freeze.
Nawara Khan couldn't help panicking.
Is hesitating whether to plead guilty.
The three tribes fought each other in front of Zhu Di, and if they won, the Ming emperor would naturally be overjoyed.
But provoking the Han people has another meaning.Now Oala Khan is only waiting to conclude a better business agreement with Daming, and to be his second-hand dealer. If you understand Urig’s words with ulterior motives, you can think that Oala wants to provoke Daming.
Zhu Di had a half-smile on his face, and he looked at Wuzhige.
At this time, it is natural to agree, because there is no reason not to.
But the problem is... who can be taught to be good, so as to ensure the certainty of victory.
After all, once you lose, you will not look good on the face.
At this moment, Zhang Anshi stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I will randomly pick someone from the model camp and play with him."
Zhu Di nodded.
Zhang Anshi said to the eunuch, "Go and tell Zhu Yong to choose one."
The eunuch left in a hurry.
Zhu Yong has been waiting outside the tent. He just saw this wrestling, and his blood was boiling with excitement.
The eunuch said: "His Royal Highness has a military order to teach General Zhu to choose one person to play with them."
"Who do you want to pick, why don't you say it clearly?"
The eunuch couldn't respond for a while, so he had to use Zhang Anshi's original words: "Your Highness means... just pick one at random..."
In fact, the eunuch has already hinted at it.
The reason why we choose randomly is actually that His Highness needs to be as light as possible, which means that I have all kinds of warriors in Ming Dynasty, and it is not easy to underestimate any one I take out.
But General Zhu, this wrestling has touched His Majesty's face, you have to be careful.
It's just that when Zhu Yong heard what his elder brother said, he subconsciously looked at Zhu Gaochi together with Zhang and Qiu Song beside him.
In their view, in the eyes of the eldest brother, the so-called Oirat warriors are nothing, so pick a weaker one to play with him, if you pick out the elite, it will appear that our model camp is incompetent.
Qiu Song said to Zhu Gaochi, "Go and throw him over."
Zhu Gaochi: "..."
Zhu Yong and Zhang looked at each other, but they didn't make a sound, just let Qiu Song do these things.
Seeing Zhu Gaochi not moving, Qiu Song urged, "Go quickly."
Zhu Gaochi looked at the meticulous Qiu Song. After a short period of persuasion, perhaps because he was used to it in the camp, it was a conditioned reflex. He took off his armor, took off the saber at his waist, and then moved his arms. He walked out of his sentry post slowly.
