Zhu Cheng also whispered: "The food I mentioned is not my own, but the food for everyone who went to Jingxi Huangzhuang with me this time."

Emperor Tianqi was stunned and couldn't help laughing. He didn't care much about the pressing of these ministers.

The ministers in the hall whispered, not knowing what conspiracy the shameless king and his minister were thinking about. The historian in charge of the record in the corner of the hall quickly recorded the crimes of the slander Zhu Cheng.

After laughing for a while, Emperor Tianqi looked gloomy and said, "Brother Cheng, I really can't bear to leave. Once you leave, I will be the only one left in the court to fight alone."

Zhu Cheng said: "How could Your Majesty fight alone? The loyal eunuch Wei Zhongxian is also a great help from Your Majesty."

Wei Zhongxian listened aside and was moved. Look, this is the member of the Wei family. Even at such a critical moment, he did not forget to plead for his grandfather.

Emperor Tianqi sighed and said, "Sometimes, I really envy Ajian for having good friends like you. I know that I always rank second in your heart, and Ajian is the first. If Ajian was sitting in this position today, your handling method might be different."

Wei Zhongxian said anxiously: "Your Majesty, be careful of your words."

Emperor Tianqi smiled and said, "It's okay, my family is talking about it."

The three of them talked about each other for a while.

It was almost noon, and Zhu Cheng said: "Long live, do you feel hungry in your stomach?"

Emperor Tianqi said, "Oh, I'm full of anger."

Zhu Cheng said: "I recently learned a new dish, grilled lamb skewers. Your Majesty might as well try it."

Emperor Aoki said: "There are so many ministers here, can you do it alone?"

"They? They are also worthy of the first young thousand households in the Ming Dynasty to cook in person, let them watch it, and they will be greedy for them."

As he said that, Zhu Cheng got off the jade stairs, exited the Taihe Hall from behind, and went to the imperial kitchen.

"Long live, where is Zhu Qianhu going? Do you want to escape? This is not possible."

"Zhu Qianhu has gone to prepare meals for me. Do you have to take care of me if I eat something?"

The ministers knew that Zhu Cheng was as treacherous as a ghost, and finally forced him to the corner this time. If he was let go this time, I don’t know when he would be able to deal with him. Fortunately, the emperor explained in person, and everyone was not afraid that Zhu Cheng would not come back.

There are everything in the imperial kitchen, but Zhu Cheng searched for a long time but couldn't find the peppers. I think it was passed on to the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Cheng couldn't help but secretly decided to send someone to collect plant seeds overseas, such as tomatoes, corn, sweet potatoes, peppers, rubber trees, and cinchona trees. Tomatoes, peppers taste delicious, corn and sweet potatoes yield high, rubber is used in the industry, and cinchona trees treat diseases, these plants are treasures.

Zhu Cheng found the ingredients, marinated the mutton, then skewed the mutton with iron wire, spread honey, and grilled it on charcoal fire for a while. When the meat was cooked and fragrant, he asked the eunuch to put it on a plate and then returned to the Golden Palace.

As soon as the grilled mutton skewers entered the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the fragrance spread and the ministers swallowed. However, the mutton skewers that Zhu Cheng got, depending on their relationship with Zhu Cheng, 99% of the mutton skewers did not have their share.

The historian in charge of the record recorded another crime in his history with great resentment.

Emperor Tianqi tasted a bite of lamb skewers and felt that he had never eaten such delicious food. He couldn't help but have a big appetite. Zhu Cheng grilled three plates in total, one plate was given to Emperor Tianqi, one plate for himself, and the other plate was handed to Wei Zhongxian. Because Emperor Tianqi said it well just now, his family talked about it, and put Zhu Cheng and Wei Zhongxian into the category of his family, so he was not afraid that Emperor Tianqi would suspect that the foreign ministers colluded with the eunuchs and had a bad intention.

The emperor and his ministers were eating happily, and suddenly they heard the sound of "dongdong" drums. The morning bells in Beijing were beating the drums in the evening drums and morning bells, but Zhu Youxiao, who had thick lines, did not care about it. Zhu Cheng lived in a noisy city in his previous life, with tweeters, car horns, and street hawking. The sound of decoration had already trained his ears into an indestructible body. How could he care about this level of noise? Only Wei Zhongxian's body shook: "Deng, Deng, Deng..."

Zhu Cheng smiled and said, "Eunuch Wei is having fun eating. Is he going to sing an opera?"

Wei Zhongxian "climbed" for a long time, and finally put on a complete sentence: "climbed out the drum!"

Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, was born in a commoner. He knew that the people had no place to complain about the pain of injustice. He set up a Dengwen Drum outside the palace, and stipulated that whenever the people beat the drum, the emperor would deal with it personally. If any officials dared to stop it, they would be sentenced seriously. However, the Dengwen Drum later became a formality and was guarded by soldiers and could not be easily approached. The people could only sigh at the drum. Now, the Dengwen Drum was ringing again. What shocking case has happened?

When Emperor Tianqi heard that someone was beating the drum, he asked, "Why do you think I should do it?"

Gao Panlong was afraid that this matter would affect the expulsion of Zhu Cheng from the capital, so he said, "Sheng Dou Xiaomin, his eyes are only the size of a lamp, and some small things will be treated as shocking things. The emperor is busy with all kinds of things, so he has no time to deal with these small things, so why not leave them to the prefect of Shuntian to deal with it."

Zuo Guangdou said: "Emperor Taizu Gao stipulated that once he heard the sound of the drum, no matter what the emperor was doing, he must go to court to deal with it. Now the emperor is in the court and the drum beater should be summoned."

Gao Panlong shook his hand and shook his eyes to Zuo Guangdou, making him understand that the most urgent task is to expel Zhu Cheng and not to lose his big fortune because of small things. However, Zuo Guangdou has his own principles and only treats it as if he has not seen it.

The ministers were divided into two factions. One faction believed that the people's affairs were too small and there was no need for the emperor to deal with them personally. He could just send an official with a slightly higher level to deal with them. The other faction held Taizu's rules and asked the emperor to summon the drumbeater immediately.

When Zhu Cheng saw that things were not in touch, he ignored them and just chewed with Zhu Youxiao and Wei Zhongxian.

Fang Congzhe made the final decision and said, "The emperor should summon the drum beater. If the matter is really small, it will be handed over to Shuntian Prefecture to handle it directly. If the matter is complicated, it will be decided by the emperor."

The drum beater was taken to the court. When Gao Panlong saw him, he knew the drum beater. Of course he knew him, because it was his wife who beat the drum.

Gao Panlong said angrily: "Madam, why are you doing whatever you want to beat the drums? You are so chaotic, are you going to let me get you off for your husband?"

Mrs. Gao cried to the ground and said, "Master, disaster is a disaster, no disaster, no chicken or dog is left behind. Now the Gao family is a chicken or dog is left behind!"

Gao Panlong immediately thought of Zhu Cheng, pointed at Zhu Cheng with his hand and said, "You, you are such a vicious method!"

All officials were thrust into each other, but they didn't expect that Zhu Cheng would commit a massacre of family destruction today. They were really cruel. Everyone was also a little lucky. Fortunately, they didn't jump out of it, otherwise the disaster would have fallen on their heads. But Zhu Cheng was too violent and stubborn. He destroyed the whole family with disagreement and did not talk about the rules of the officialdom at all. He was the most powerful person in the Ming Dynasty. Now, even if Emperor Wanli was resurrected, he could not be protected.

Zhu Cheng was calm and composed: "Mr. Gao, falsely accused him of being rebellious. It is clearly written in the "Da Ming Law". Please check your words and deeds."

Gao Panlong Lao burst into tears: "My wife is here, is this fake? Poor my grandson, I suffered such a disaster at such a young age."

Mrs. Gao said curiously: "When I went out, Jie'er was fine. Did the master make a mistake?"

Gao Panlong was stunned and said, "Didn't you say that you don't keep the chickens and dogs?"

"It's a chicken or a dog that won't be kept."

"Then why is Jie'er okay?"

All the officials were confused and watched the Gao couple perform crosstalk.

Gao Panlong saw the officials laughing at him, and was angry and said to his wife: "Tell me from beginning to end to the emperor. If you can't explain it clearly, be careful that I will peel you off."

Gao Panlong has always acted like a humble gentleman in front of his colleagues. Now he has been forced into a thug by Zhu Cheng. Zhu Cheng is really guilty.

Mrs. Gao knelt down on the ground and reported, "Long live, I am the original wife of Lord Gao Panlong. When I was enjoying flowers in the garden today, I suddenly broke into a group of robbers wearing Jinyiwei uniforms, opened the granary in my house, and all the food inside was empty. They were not satisfied and rummaged through boxes and cabinets everywhere. As long as they could eat, they took away all the braised pork that was being cooked in the pot and prepared to be scattered for the master. Before leaving, they caught all the chickens, ducks, geese, and dogs raised in the mansion. Long live, this is really a chicken and dog. Oh my God, is there any law of the king of heaven?"

Zhu Youxiao pointed at Zhu Cheng, laughed loudly, and said, "Zhu Cheng, Zhu Cheng, you are so ugly."

Gao Panlong and all the ministers stood blankly, unable to speak for a long time. It turned out that he was so fucking without leaving any other children.

Gao Panlong said, "Your Majesty, you must make the decision for your ministers."

Zhu Cheng said: "Mr. Gao, this is what you said to give to me. Since you are so generous, I have to accept it reluctantly."

Gao Panlong said angrily: "Can you eat that alone? That's enough for more than fifty stutters in our mansion for half a year."

Zhu Cheng said: "Who said it was my own food ration? I am a Jinyiwei Qianhu. I have at least a thousand Jinyiwei under my command. They all asked me for food, so I delayed the time for distribution because of purchasing grain."

Gao Panlong said: "Then you can't do anything to my family."

Zhu Cheng said: "This is what you asked for yourself. I have asked you again and again. Mr. Gao is worthy of his surname Gao. Gao Fengliangjie wants to support his army with his family. The officials admire him."
