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

Chapter 249: In ancient times, a deer was referred to as a horse, but today, a dog is referred to as a lion

Geng Bingwen's face turned blue with anger.

But it was Zhu Yuanzhang who spoke. Even if he had an opinion, he didn't dare to confront Zhu Yuanzhang.

He could only pinch his nose to admit his mistake.

The lively atmosphere just now condensed instantly because of this little episode.

Empress Ma looked at the crowd, and said softly: "The Marquis of Changxing is also used to wowing people, all the treasures are presented, but they are not seen, I am anxiously waiting."

Empress Ma's tone was with a smile. Hearing these words, there seemed to be slight resentment, but after listening carefully, you would know that Empress Ma was helping Geng Bingwen.

Although Geng Bingwen is straight-hearted, he can hear good words.

Hearing Queen Ma's words, he bowed his hands gratefully to Queen Ma.

"It was a mistake by the minister who made the queen wait for a long time. Let's open the cloth now and let the empress take a look at this rare treasure."

Speaking of this treasure, Geng Bingwen became proud again.

This thing is not available to just anyone.

It was luck that he got this thing.

At that time, he was walking on the street in good condition, but unexpectedly he was targeted by a foreigner.

The man guessed that he was well-dressed and recognized his identity, so he invited him to a tent, and it was there that he saw this treasure.

As the black cloth was lifted, a huge black and long-haired beast appeared in front of everyone.

The furry beast was lying on the ground at this moment, with a pair of black eyes staring at the surrounding people viciously, grinning its teeth, and let out a low, threatening growl from its throat.

Woohoo, it's quite intimidating.

"This is……"

Empress Ma stood up in surprise.

Zhu Yuanzhang also leaned forward with a face full of curiosity.

The beast looked fierce at first glance, they didn't dare to get too close, and stopped some distance away from the cage.

The three of Chu Ze also leaned over.

"What is this?" Zhu Xi stared at the beast in front of him with surprise in his eyes.

Although Zhu Biao didn't show it too clearly, he didn't hide the curiosity and interest in his eyes.

Chu Ze raised his eyebrows unexpectedly: Is this thing a treasure?
Well, this thing is indeed uncommon in this dynasty, and it is not too much to count as a treasure.

Looking at the shocked crowd, Geng Bingwen said proudly: "This is called a lion, which is unique to foreign countries. We did not have this thing in the Ming Dynasty. This time, it was brought into the border of our Ming Dynasty with the circus. We got After seeing this good thing, I immediately thought of the emperor, so I immediately sent it to the palace, and invited the emperor and empress to watch it."

Zhu Yuanzhang was overjoyed, and kept admiring the rare things in the cage around the cage.

While watching, he praised Geng Bingwen fiercely.

Queen Ma waited for you and watched with interest.

The lion in the cage had a fierce face, probably because they got too close, it had already stood up vigilantly, its eyes fixed on Zhu Yuanzhang and the others, as if it would pounce out whenever it had the chance, and wipe out the annoying people in front of it. The flies are directly killed.

Zhu Yuanzhang and the others were so happy, Chu Ze's expression was unbelievable.

He pointed at the ferocious beast in the cage, puzzled and shocked: "You, what do you say this is?!"

Geng Bingwen turned his head when he heard the words, looked at Chu Ze contemptuously, and said with a sneer, "Master Chu's ears are not good, right? The Marquis has already said that this is called a lion. But it's not surprising that you don't recognize it, after all, it's a foreign thing. , you haven’t seen it, it’s normal.”

After all, Geng Bingwen gave Chu Ze a mocking look.

Zhu Yuanzhang and others, who knew Chu Ze's temperament well, didn't follow Geng Bingwen's expectation and laughed at Chu Ze's ignorance. Instead, they turned their heads and said to Chu Ze, "Chu Ze, do you know this thing?"

"Do you see it often?"

In fact, what Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to ask was whether he often saw lions in Chu Ze's time.

Thinking of the future generations that Chu Ze talked about, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help feeling a little envious.

Zhu Biao and others couldn't help looking at him.

Geng Bingwen looked at the crowd strangely. He didn't understand why Zhu Yuanzhang and the others not only didn't mock Chu Ze, but also asked Chu Ze in such a serious tone if he often saw lions?
how can that be.

He asked those foreigners, and they said that this lion is unique to their country, and Daming didn't have it at all.

How could Chu Ze have never seen them before?

Since Chu Ze wants to lose face so much, he will help him.

"Yes, if Master Chu knows you, then tell me what the lion eats on a daily basis." He didn't believe it, Chu Ze knew it.

Chu Ze really didn't know what his son wanted to eat.

But he knew very well what the "lion" in front of him wanted to eat.

And he was a little disgusted.

Because this "lion" is not only bigger and eats a lot, but also very fierce and loves to shed hair.

If you don't take care of it for a day, you will be like a golden lion king. Not only is the hair thick, but it is also long and thick. Giving it a bath is like going through a catastrophe.

"Isn't it the Tibetan Mastiff?"

Chu Ze really liked it, and his tone revealed disgust, "This kind of dog is fierce, and no one can get close to it except its own master. And this Tibetan mastiff is so big, it is not easy to tame it." Ordinary dogs have to be raised from an early age.

Only in this way can the dogs raised be more loyal and less likely to hurt their owners.

He looked up at Geng Bingwen, with sympathy flashing in his eyes: "Marquis Changxing, you have been cheated."

When Geng Bingwen heard this, his expression suddenly darkened.

"This is impossible!"

Obviously those people have said that this is a lion, how could it be a mastiff or not.

It is even more impossible to be a dog!

Geng Bingwen looked at Chu Ze warily, thought for a while, and understood.

"I see, you did it on purpose."

"You saw us presenting treasures to the emperor, you were jealous, so you deliberately called this lion a dog, and wanted to slander me, right?"

The more Geng Bingwen thought about it, the more he felt that he was right.

This man must have done it on purpose.

I beat him before, this person must not be reconciled.

But the emperor had already taught him a lesson about the previous matter, so he was embarrassed to insist on this point, so he didn't pursue it.

He was just waiting for this opportunity to frame himself again.

Around this thing, no one in the entire Ming Dynasty knew Tibetan mastiffs, let alone lions.

As long as he firmly insists that this is not a lion, even if he will not be charged with deceiving the emperor, he will definitely lose all face.

In short, this person is not at ease.

Fortunately, Chu Ze didn't know how to read minds. If he knew that this person could think so well, he would definitely hand him a pen on the spot.

If such a big brain hole is not written down, it will be a great loss to the literary world.

Chu Ze sneered and said, "Why am I slandering you? This is a Tibetan mastiff. Lions don't look like that at all."

"Well, I can't blame you for this."

"Who made our Daming not have this thing? There are always some opportunistic people taking advantage of the loopholes, and it's normal to be cheated."
