Daming: After self-explosive time travel, Lao Zhu's mentality collapsed

Chapter 191 Was the Japanese country sent an envoy?

"Brother Chu Ze, I found out that you are so powerful! You are more powerful than I thought."

After leaving the East Palace, Chu Ze took Lan Ruoyan and walked towards the Ministry of Rites again.

Now, Zhu Xiongying and Zhu Bo are still recovering from their illnesses, and the other students accompanying them, thanks to their grandson, have all been vaccinated against vaccinia at one time.

The school has been temporarily put on hold, so Chu Ze has actually been relatively free recently.

On the way to the Ministry of Rites, Lan Ruoyan held Chu Ze's heavy hand, and looked at him with big watery eyes.

His eyes were full of admiration and yearning for the strong.

"Am I very good? What you thought before, how good am I!"

On the way to the Ministry of Rites, after Chu Ze heard Lan Ruoyan's words, he couldn't help but smiled and looked down at her.

When Lan Ruoyan said this, he was a little curious about what kind of person he was in his eyes at first.

"I used to just think, Brother Chu Ze, you know everything and know everything. Anyway, it gives people a very knowledgeable and powerful feeling."

"But after I came to the palace with you today, I found that you are more powerful than I thought!"

"When you talked to His Majesty, I didn't feel that you were afraid of His Majesty at all!"

"Even if it's a father, you can always clearly feel his restraint in front of His Majesty. But brother Chu Ze, you can't feel this in you."

"And when you talk to His Highness the Crown Prince, I don't think you are at all like a relationship between a monarch and a minister."

"I don't know how to say it, but I always feel that brother Chu Ze is so special!"

...

After hearing Lan Ruoyan's evaluation of him, Chu Ze smiled and reached out to rub her little head.

After messing up his originally soft long hair, he took his hand away in satisfaction.

"You're still young, and you'll know when you grow up. My specialness needs to be paid for."

"A price?"

After hearing Chu Ze's words, a trace of confusion flashed in Lan Ruoyan's eyes.

She didn't quite understand the meaning of Chu Ze's words.

Facing Lan Ruoyan's confused look, Chu Ze didn't explain too much.

He just smiled and led her to the courtyard of the Ministry of Rites.

Originally, Chu Ze thought that it would take a long time for the emptied Ministry of Rites to recover.

But the fact is that he still underestimated Zhu Yuanzhang's execution ability after all.

After the Ministry of Rites was emptied, in less than two days, the staff of the Ministry of Rites expanded to seven or eighty-eight.

At least, the basic work needs can be met.

But when Chu Ze led Lan Ruoyan to the Ministry of Rites, he was about to punch in and leave, but was directly stopped by someone.

"Brother Chu Ze, I have waited for you."

"Uh, you are Huang Qiurang?"

"Yes, yes, I didn't expect you to remember the villain's name! It's really rare, and it's really an honor!"

"Is something wrong?"

Chu Ze frowned slightly as he looked at Huang Qiurang who blocked his way.

The position in the Ministry of Rites that Zhu Yuanzhang arranged for him was actually just for him to have some seniority.

After all, he is now Zhu Biao's number one confidant, and he is also Lan Yu's son-in-law.

You can't really just be a ninth-rank master book for the rest of your life.

Not to mention being well-matched, at least it's a bit embarrassing on the face.

Therefore, Chu Ze has now been promoted from the master of the ninth rank to the imperial servant of the seventh rank.

This is just a process of subsidizing money.

It is estimated that he will not stay in the Ministry of Rites for long, and he will have to be promoted.

According to Chu Ze's estimate, Lao Zhu would have to promote him to a fourth-rank idle position anyway.

Otherwise, I will lose face.

Since he was here to go through the motions, it stands to reason that he shouldn't have anything to do with it.

The other party suddenly blocked his way, I'm afraid... want to find fault?
"Brother Chu Ze! To delay your time a little bit, here is a letter sent by His Majesty himself, I'm afraid I need to trouble you!"

"A letter from His Majesty? What's the matter?"

When he heard that the order was sent by Zhu Yuanzhang, Chu Ze couldn't help but a hint of curiosity flashed in his eyes, why did Zhu Yuanzhang need to give him an order in person?
Moreover, he made a deliberate detour, released it to the hands of the Ministry of Rites, and then fell into his own hands?

"That's how it is. A group of envoys from the Wa Kingdom came to Daming. After hearing about this, His Majesty Daming specially issued a hand letter. This is a call for brothers to come over in person!"

"His Majesty's handbook is here, brother, please take a look at it."

Huang Qiurang has now served as the third round of officials in the Ministry of Rites.

The Jilun here is the number of times the officials of the Ministry of Rites have been thoroughly investigated by His Majesty.

How could this kind of guy who can work in the Ministry of Rites and save his life for three consecutive rounds fail to see that Chu Ze came here to just go through the motions?

How can someone who needs His Highness the Crown Prince to come and say hello in person be a small servant in a place like the Ministry of Rites?

If Zhu Yuanzhang hadn't ordered Chu Ze to personally meet the envoys from the Japanese kingdom, even if he was given ten guts, he wouldn't dare to make decisions on his own and leave these matters to Chu Ze. ah!
So after explaining the situation roughly to Chu Ze, he hurriedly handed the letter from Zhu Yuanzhang to Chu Ze.

He is just a messenger. If possible, it is best not to offend both parties. That would be the best ending.

After Chu Ze heard his message, he reached out and took the handwritten letter from him.

After opening the folder in his hand, the contents on it made the corner of Chu Ze's mouth twitch slightly.

"Chu Ze, let us handle this matter."

The tone of this speech is really His Majesty's handwritten order. The few words written by ordinary people are definitely not like him.

"Okay, I see! Where are these people now? When did they come? How long have they been waiting?"

After closing the folder in his hand, Chu Ze handed it directly to Lan Ruoyan who was leading him.

Then, he turned his gaze to Huang Qiurang who was still waiting in front of him.

Although the two were equal, after Chu Ze raised the question, Huang Qiurang cheered up immediately.

After organizing his words slightly, he reported the situation to Chu Ze in a hurry.

"This group of envoys from the Wa Kingdom arrived in Jinling City four days ago, and are currently waiting for our arrangement at Honglu Temple."

"This morning, I even sent someone over to remind me once."

"four days ago"

After Chu Ze heard Huang Qiurang's words, his eyes narrowed slightly.

Calculating the time, these people should have set off before Hu Weiyong's caravan did business in private.

Then they should not have smallpox.

"Okay, I know about this matter, I will deal with it later. If there is nothing else, I will go first."

"Hey, walk slowly, walk slowly!"

Under Huang Qiurang's gaze, Chu Ze leisurely led Lan Ruoyan out of the courtyard of the Ministry of Rites.

But when he saw him walking away, Huang Qiurang was slightly relieved.

"Huang Lao, who was that guy just now? You seem to be quite nervous."

Just as Huang Qiurang breathed a sigh of relief, a young man who looked a little naughty jumped up beside him.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he immediately asked about Chu Ze.

"Don't ask if you shouldn't."

Compared with the humbleness when he faced Chu Ze just now, Huang Qiurang at this time is full of the momentum of the old senior.

After sternly yelling at the other party, he walked to the side with a dark face.

These little young people studied hard one by one, and after high school, many of them have lost their hearts.

It's okay to work dishonestly all day long, and just think about getting close and getting in touch with each other.

This kind of person probably won't last a round.

"Ruoyan. Let me take you home first. I have to deal with some things here. It's not convenient to take you with me."

After taking Lan Ruoyan out of the gate of the palace, he looked at Lan Ruoyan who was following him, hesitated for a while, and finally decided not to take her to Honglu Temple.

After all, the next thing, if not done well, will be bloody.

It was somewhat inappropriate to take Lan Ruoyan with her.

"Brother Chu Ze, you still have to deal with business. Ruoyan shouldn't have followed! But should we go back to my house or ours?"

My home, our home?

This little girl recognizes the family very clearly!
The term family has already begun to be used.

"Don't want to go back to your house? I remember you haven't gone back for several days. Don't you want to go back to see your father-in-law?"

Hearing what Chu Ze said meant that he wanted to send her home, Lan Ruoyan mumbled immediately with her pretty pink lips.

The little cheeks puffed up.

"I don't want to go back. As soon as I got home, my aunt asked me to learn embroidery, and now my second mother also wants me to learn to play the guzheng. It's not fun at all to sit for a day."

"Brother Chu Ze, don't send me back, okay?"

Looking at Lan Ruoyan who was full of resistance when she mentioned going home, Chu Ze suddenly remembered the child who ran away from home during the rebellious period for some reason.

Isn't this exactly the same?

After he reached out and pinched her little face, he gently took her hand, and stepped into the carriage.

Before setting off, Chu Ze greeted a guard beside him.

"You run for me and call Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and Zhu Xi, the king of Qin. Tell them, there is excitement here."

"Yes."

After watching his guards leave, Chu Ze asked the coachman to drive home.

Of course, this home is 'our' home.

After Chu Ze's call, the efficiency of the two brothers Zhu Di and Zhu Xi can be said to be directly full.

As soon as Chu Ze arrived home, the two of them came to the door one after another.

As soon as they entered the door, they heard an explosion echoing in the courtyard of Chu Ze's house.

This familiar voice, the two of them will naturally be familiar with each other.

This roar is the sound only when the firecracker is fired.

The two looked in the direction of the sound, and saw that Lan Ruoyan, who had already put on a practice suit, was loading ammunition skillfully after firing a shot.

And in front of her, there are targets one after another.

Seeing this scene, Zhu Di was a little speechless and pulled the second brother beside him with his hand.

Then, he pointed to Lan Ruoyan who was loading ammunition.

"Last time, Chu Ze said that you are not allowed to test guns in his yard. Look, how much time is there now! The shooting range has been built, and this guy simply says one thing and does another, and does one thing in person. .”

"A person who sees sex and forgets friends is not enough to plan!"

Regarding Zhu Di's complaint, Zhu Xi also glanced in the direction he pointed.

But then, he turned to look directly at Zhu Di.

His brows twitched provocatively.

"Standing over there is his wife. If he doesn't dote on his wife, he might still dote on you!"

"It's not a question of whether you like it or not! Last time we tried a shot, he talked about us for a long time. Turning around, we built a shooting range at home. This is not a double label! Somehow Bully people!"

When Zhu Di was complaining to his second brother, Lan Ruoyan at the side seemed to be provoking him.

After loading the ammunition, he directly raised the flintlock gun in his hand and pulled the trigger directly at the moving target in the distance.

After a bang, the target in the distance was directly pierced by the flying bullets.

One shot hit, right in the bull's eye.

"I said two, why don't you come in and sit when you come? Why are you standing outside?"

Before Zhu Di wanted to say something, Chu Ze's voice rang out in the front hall in front of them.

And Zhu Di looked at the target that was obviously not operated by anyone, but was still moving.

He also felt a little funny for a while.

This kind of moving target is much more interesting than those that don't move at all.

But, is there any water nearby? How did the targets Lan Ruoyan hit move?

Although he was a little curious, under Chu Ze's call, Zhu Di followed Zhu Xi and walked towards the front hall of their house.

"What's the matter? What happened?"

"Yeah, didn't you tell us that there is excitement here? Where is the excitement?"

Seeing Chu Ze, who had no intention of showing seats to his brothers, and Zhu Xi and Zhu Di, who were already used to it, they found a seat for themselves and sat down.

And unceremoniously greeted the maids on the side, and asked them to go to the kitchen to prepare food and drink.

Although this is not their palace, they feel much more at ease here in Chu Ze than in their own home.

"The excitement is not with me. I plan to go to Honglu Temple in a while. What do you two say? Do you have time to go together?"

"I'm afraid I'll get tired after a while, and no one will change hands!"

After hearing that Chu Ze was going to Honglu Temple, Zhu Di, who was about to take a bite of the cake on the table, immediately became interested.

"Going to fight at Honglu Temple? I have to join in the fun! I'll go and I'll go, I'll be fine all afternoon!"

After hearing Zhu Di's teasing words, Zhu Xi subconsciously adjusted the flying fish suit on his body.

Then he coughed loudly.

"What fights and not fights? Let's go, that's called Jin Yiwei to handle the case. Idle people avoid it!"

"Let me, the commander of Jinyiwei, lead the team!"
